Ch.31: Talking to the moon, trying to find you

Previously in Ch. 30

No! Stop just run and get out of here while you have the chance!!

Some of them froze and looked at me in shock hearing my voice for the first time. I haven't even heard my voice in many many years. But Jamie, Pippa and Claude didn't pause or stop they went after the fearling. Cupcake attacked with the large stick she had as Pippa and Claude went behind him grabbing the spear and tried to push it deeper into him. The fearlings screamed in pain and used the shadows around them to go all out and force everyone of them back they all were pushed back so far some of them went back on land.

Pippa and Jamie slid across the ice Pippa was thrown to close to the hole she was mere inches away from it. She started to get her barongs and getting up but i saw the ice under her cracking more and then she fell in. I heard her gasping and the water swishing around as she tried to get to the side to pull herself out. The fearlings finally got the spear out of their shoulder and they came towards me with it. They were breathing heavily and blooding, the fearlings held the spear up and drove it down towards my body i couldn't help but keep my focus more on Pippa trying to get out of the ice cold water then the spear coming towards me.

(Story continues unknown person pov)

As those fearlings went to put a spear through Sanderson's chest i saw nightlight take out more nightmares and changed his light into the spear making a moonbeam come from it it was so bright the fearlings we're blinded by it and missed their target. They screamed in pain immediately letting go of the spear as it got weighed into the ice. They backed up from Sanderson holding their severely burned hand black smoke came from their hand.

Because of their fused state with so many other fearlings the ones gathered to make the hand were killed and vaporized to smoke. If their weak enough they can be killing but only with light but if their strong enough not even the light can kill them they'll be unstoppable. They had to be all gathered and locked away in a vault long ago. The general Kozmotis pitchiner was the one in charge of guarding it, if the fearlings we're weak enough Kozmotis could of just killed them instead of guarding them.

And if he wasn't such a weak minded fool he wouldn't of secum to their wicked ways of word's and ploys and let them free. I watched as nightlight got rid of the last of the night area as the fearlings went after him i sighed to myself. I guess this is my time to help them now if not their going to screw up more and let this world parish. I can already feel the darkness getting ever closer it's almost at the moon in a few months time it will be here and after it's here theirs no stopping it.

I used my abilities and gathered a few dozen birds to distract the fearlings long enough to get those mortals out along with nightlight and Sanderson. After i got my vines to get the one child out of the water i got Sanderson free and quickly took them all through a passage way to Nicholas workshop. We arrived in his globe room i saw him their staring wide eyed at my unannounced visit.

Hello Nicholas, i believe Sanderson and these mortals might need your assistance.

I moved out the way having him see them behind me without my blocking his view. His eyes widen and ran up to them as best he could. He looked like his age perseeved now an old man, he and his yetis looked over everyone. I motioned for nightlight to come over so i may speak to him privately.

Nightlight it's been a long time.

He smiled at me and nodded.

I need you to go out and gather as many strong spirits and fae as you can have them prepare. I know you can sense it's oncoming arrival that darkness etching every closer to this world.
