Chapter 25: Forgottten Memories

Unedited

"(Y/N), what are you doing..." North questioned as they all followed along behind you, "vhat is happening to you..."

You sighed as you briskly walked down a large hallway, "I'm no longer believed in, my Kingdom is crumbling before my eyes, my son is missing, I have no time for any antics from anyone right now."

And like you had just said, your kingdom was crumbling right before you. Columns that lined the interior walls were crumbling away, stain glass pains were cracking and lights from candles began to go out. Soon enough, everything was shunned into darkness. You groaned in annoyance, lifting a candle from the wall and lighting it with the fire emitting from your hands. You continued on quickly, fear setting in on your heart.

"(Y/N) please slow down...where are we going? What happened to Rogue...what's happening to you..." Tooth questioned as she stumbled along as well, gripping onto one of North's blades to keep herself steady. Everyone was beginning to become scared of you, their fear was appearing. You stopped.

"Have you ever wondered why Pitch is the way he is...?"

They stopped and stared at you, confusion filling their once bright and lively coloured eyes. Fear was setting in faster than they thought no, you looked almost identical to Pitch.

"There's a reason he's like this...there's always been a reason," you said, continuing on down the corridor, "why he hides under beds, why he despises us....particularly me especially..."

"Then why...why is that..." Tooth asked, "come to think of it, we don't actually know that much about your's and Pitch's pasts..."

You sighed, your glowing flaxen eyes piercing through the darkness, "Pitch and my brother are different entities. Pitch is the fearling that turned his heart cold...Kozmotis, my brother, is the vessel. He's always been trying so hard to fight against the fear...however, this time...he failed."

The other's listened to your words as they silently followed along. North and Tooth were holding each other up while Bunny was bounding alongside you, staring at you in concern.

"Everything I've done to try and return him to normal has failed, he's far too resistant..." you said, pushing open a pair of grande doors that stretched towards the tall ceiling. The others followed you inside, marvelling at the size of the room. And in the centre of it, was the globe. Lights flickered around the continents, your fear was setting in even faster.

"There's only a few o' the little ankle-biters left..." Bunny mumbled, walking around the globe. And just as the words had left his mouth, your body crumbled. Your knees buckled and your gripped onto the scythe in your hands to keep yourself up. Pain shot through your body at alarming speeds; your skin greyed and the gold in your eyes became brighter. Luckily, Bunny had caught you just in case you hit the floor.

"There isn't much time left..." you mumbled, gripping onto the scythe in your hands, "there are only a few lights and they're going out fast..."

"Wait...wait, wait, wait, idea!" North suddenly said, "Toothy, did you ever collect (Y/N's teeth?"

"No North...I didn't exist when she was a child..." Tooth responded, "why...?"

"Perhaps, if we find her memories, we find out how to 'change' Pitch back into (Y/N)'s brother!" He explained, having a sudden burst of energy that quickly dissipated. You sighed, clenching the locket that hung around your neck.

"There is a way to see my memories...since Tooth never existed when I was a child, I'd been keeping my own memories inside this locket," you explained, unhooking the golden necklace and holding it in your hand, "however, it doesn't just have my childhood memories, it contains every fond and every dark memory I've made up until this moment."
