Rise of The Guardians Fanfic

Chapter 21 -One More Day-

Jack's Pov 

Become a guardian they said.

It will be fun they said.

Yeah. Being stuck in a cage while Pitch is slowly killing the only one I've ever loved. I am having so much fun.

NOT!!

If I am correct. Today is the day when Scarlet will lose her air element. And then she will be dead. And I will have to watch her die along with her brother.

I looked down and I saw a trail of golden sand. I frowned as I could not reach it and send a message to Sandy. I moved my foot and something rattled. I looked and I saw a bunch of little rocks. An idea popped into my mind. 

I picked up a rock and I covered them with frost and dropped them into the golden sand. Now when they appear Sandy will see them and know that I am ok. But I don't know how to let them know that Scarlet is not. 

I don't know if she is still alive. I feel like she is. I just hope it is right.

Wait. 

I still have my frost?

I grinned and I got an idea into my mind. I gripped the bars and I concentrated all I had into them. Frost began to spread and soon the bars crumbled and went away. I hopped out and laughed lightly. 

I jumped from cage to cage until I reached the ground. I laughed lightly and the laugh stopped when I saw Scar.

She laid on her side and looked like she was a black and white person out of an old movie. There was faint color in her skin. Her eyes were closed and I was worried she was dead already.

"Scar?" I said softly.

She only moved a finger and that was good enough for me. It meant that she was alive.

"How did you get out of that cage?"

I turned and I saw Pitch standing there. He looked shocked and a little amused. 

"It doesn't matter how I got out. I will not let you kill Scarlet." I said.

"Jack?" A soft, quiet voice said behind me.

I turned and I saw Scar. She had her eyes open a little bit. 

"Scar." I said.

"You do realize that she cannot see you? Right?" Pitch said.

I turned toward him and I said "You are going to pay."

Pitch laughed and he said "Oh? You and whose army?"

I glared at him and I felt the ground rumble and I jumped back as a giant hole opened and up jumped the other guardians and Leo.

Leo looked around and said "Yup. Sure don't miss this place."

He saw Scar and his eyes widened with shock.

"Scarlet!" He cried.

He glared at Pitch and he said "What did you do to my sister?!"

Ignoring his question, Pitch just grinned.

"Ah so my guests did arrive on time. Good." He said.

With a wave of his hand black sand surrounded us and created a cage made of black sand. Even Sandy's golden sand could not break it nor my frost. 

Pitch grinned and he nodded to two of his monsters and they walked past us and walked into Scar's cell. They picked her up and they carried her over to a few feet in front of us and laid her on the ground. 

Pitch smiled and he bent down onto one knee and he brought out a black dagger. 

"I do hope you enjoy my little show." He said. 

Then he raised the dagger above Scar and then with one swift movement. He brought it down into Scarlet's chest.

"NO!" I cried.

Pitch's grin grew as  Scarlet's body glowed a little bit and then slowly disappeared into sparkling lights of orange, blue, light pink, and green. All of the elements. Then she was gone.

"Scarlet!" Leo cried.

Pitch laughed and then he and our cage disappeared. 

Scarlet's Pov

I laid on the ground of my cell and I didn't even bothered to open my eyes. What did I have to look at? I had no reason to even breathe. 

Pitch was going to kill me today. He said that on the final day of the countdown, he would kill me. 

I have waited for death. And now, I was going to get it. Now my pain will end.

"Scar." A soft voice said.

Hold on. 

I know that voice. It was Jack's voice. 

I didn't open my eyes but I did move my finger so he'd know I was alive. But now my body told me it was time for me to go into my coma. I didn't resist. I relaxed and let myself slip into a deep coma and waited for my death.

If only I knew how Pitch would kill me. And if only I got to see Leo's face one last time.
