Black wings, Snow, and Sand

Chapter 18: We will not go down without a fight (Continued: Jack)

I shoot ice at whatever Nightmare comes close. Almost missing a few times. Yetis, Easter eggs, and now little Fairies fight the monsters every which way around me. Suddenly my eyes catch the sight of Victoria riding a golden horse, slicing through each nightmare with her daggers.
She makes her trail toward me just as one of the dark horses crash into hers. She falls to the ground, about to get up, before I race over and lend her a hand, smiling when I see her silently giggling with a little bit of embarrassment. Then, I thought comes to me with a chuckle. Let's make this a little more fun...
"May I have this dance My lady?"
My voice speaks with a really bad English accent. She looks confused before realization comes across her face. With that she backs up, slices through a nightmares face, then curtsies toward me, who bows. I offer my staff, in which she wraps her hand around mine, and place my hand on her waist.
"Let's show them how we dance."
We move to point the staff toward an on coming horse and shoot. We dance and fight with loud laughs from me, and small, silent ones from her. Soon the groups of darkness start to become smaller and smaller with each passing moment. We stop and look up to see Pitch staring at us with yellow daggers. Her smile suddenly turns to a determined frown. She looks back at me, and quickly kisses my cheek, before walking casually over and blows a loud whistle. Sudden Bunny races around the corner, and throws her on to his back.
"I've gotchya lass."
He races up the side of Pitch's building as fast he can. Within seconds she's touching the concrete of the roof. What a woman.

(Victoria)
I'm tired. I'm fed up. This basturd doesn't own me, and he never will.
Bunny jumps to the other roof knowing he can come back if I need help. He fends off other nightmares that approach.
I spread out and brace myself for whatever happens. Pitch looks furious, then laughs at my stance.
"You want to fight me, luv? You can't beat me, and you know it."
I grab my daggers from my boots and grip them tight... No. I put them back in my boots and look at him with eyes that would be as red as blood. His eyebrow raises with amused curiosity.
"No weapons. You really are stepping your boundaries... Fine let's settle this like man... And girl."
He races toward me. Which to be honest is a very interesting yet possibly a stupid choice. He tries to throw a sucker punch, giving me the chance to grab his forearm, quickly reach my leg up under his arm, behind his head and flip down flat his back. He hesitantly gets up from the blow and looks at me with an impressed expression.
"Not bad for a broken girl."
No. I'm not broken. I'm not weak. He's going to pay. If I could say at least a sentence then- Suddenly a thought comes to mind.... Is it possible? Could I try to take....
I try to throw a punch. He grabs it. Shit. He punches me hard and I fall on my arse.
"Oh come on, pet. I know you can do better than that."
He picks me up by my hair and faces me to the edge of the roof. The others fight below. Pitch smirks as the nightmares start to close in on all of them.
"I want you to see this, darling. Watch as your friends and lover die."
NO! I grab his hands on my head, and swing my legs, knocking him to the ground. I catch myself as soon as I feel his hand let go, and turn to flip him on his back. His disorientation is my advantage. I pick his torso up by the collar of his robe, and grab his head, concentrating as hard as I can.
................................................................
(Jack)
I fly up as fast as I can, when suddenly I hear a bloodcurdling scream that makes thunderous clouds form above.
Oh my God.
"VICTORIA!"
I race to the roof that Bunny dropped her at .
"Victoria!?"
She holds on to the roof, gritting her teeth and pretty much growling with pain. She looks the same with her short hair and her wingless back, but her most recent scar is gone, and she looks pissed. I move about an inch before she gets up and turns to a now surprised Pitch.
"How-"
He stutters as he looks at her. She doesn't notice I'm there, she looks at him with red eyes. Suddenly the roar of a great lioness escapes her with anger...Holy shit.
"You're nothing but a coward! I am not your pet! I am not your plaything nor am I broken! You don't own me, and you never will!"
He quickly gets up and runs to the edge were a nightmare catches him mid air.
But that soon changes when North's blade collides with the horse's belly. Pitch flies off to the ground.
I turn back to see Victoria looking back at me. I utter a nervous chuckle.
"Was that lion king impression another one of your party tricks?"
I say referring to the roar. She reaches her hand to her throat.
"I actually have never done that before."
Suddenly we hear an all out fight happening below.
"Let's go."
I fly over, grab her hand and haul both me and her to the scene. The others corner Pitch between two buildings. He's blocked off by school bus behind him as he looks at us with worry.  We land just in front of the others ready for anything.
"It's over Pitch."
Victoria says with a low and hatful tone. I can literally feel the surprise radiating off the others behind us. Pitch looks at both of us for a second before he disappears into the ground. His shadows appear all around us as we quickly look around to see which one is  which. I notice Bunny turn around with fear coaxing his face.
"Jack look out!"
He throws his boomerang at the threat that appears behind. I turn without hesitation to see a gigantic scythe approaching. My body won't move, its frozen as I see my death nearing...
