Hallow's Eve {Rise of the Guardians} DISCONTINUED

Fool Me Once

A girl with short rugged blond hair hopped from tree branch to tree branch through a forest with leafless trees and twisted branches, her skin was as white as snow, she had dark rings around her eyes, which made her look just a little bit depressed, her eyes were a bright glowing orange.

She was dressed in a  black hoodie that hanged off her shoulders and went way over her hands, up under was a black tank top. She also had On a red plaid skirt and black stalkings with red baby doll shoes.

She came to a halt when she reached a huge tree with hundreds of bats hanging from its branches fast asleep. "Time to wake up!" she said cheerfully kicking the tree waking up the hundreds of bats from their year long slumber. They were already dead just to be clear and they could take the shape of anything she wanted but haven't bats was much more fun.

"Halloween is in a matter of weeks, which means its time for the dark clouds and harsh winds. change the color of the leaves.and prepare every town for Halloween!"

She said to her bats as they opened their tiny little red eyes. They nodded and did as told, and as the flew off into the night, the girl leaned against the black tree and sighed.

"I really hope there are no spirits out, I don't want to deal with any this year."

She loved to brought the autumn colors, and the spookiness of Halloween... Yet no one knew it was her doing, she traveled the world, to Japan for the bon festival, and to Mexico for the day of the dead. She worked every fall and every time there was a day humans dedicated to the dead, and every other time she'd goof off or just sleep.

But it didn't matter how hard she worked, or how much she dreamed, it seemed no one would believe in her...

"Why so sad Eve?"

The dark voice sent a chill down the girl's spine, she turned around to see who had spoken to her.

"P-pitch..."

She said to the dark figure. Pitch smiled at the mention of his name.

"Good evening Eve"

He said coming closer to the girl,

"What is it that you want...? Come to try and fill Halloween with fear again...?"

She said crossing her arms This had been like the 100th time he had come to her forest, she regretted freeing him from that hole a few years back.

"Your so cold towards me. All I want to do is help."

He said sounding wounded by her harsh tone.

"Yeah sure, help plunge the world into darkness. I won't fall for your tricks again. "

She responded facing away from the darker spirit.

"Why do you treat me in such a way? When we're so much alike..."

He grinned as he places a hand on either one of her shoulders. She didn't dare turn around, chance being she'd look him in the eye.

"We are not a like Pitch, I bring joy, and lead those how needs to be. while you only bring fear..."

She spat harshly,

"We shall never be alike, not now, not ever."

Pitch just smiled and gently tucked a lock of blond hair behind the young spirits pail ear.

"If you bring Joy, then why is it no one believes in you?"

"I wouldn't know." she hissed at him getting mad.

"That is how we are alike though... we are both alone... no one believes in us... and no one sees us...no one wants us! Even the spirits you try to help never want to be near you."

He said walking in front of her, but she looked away.

"All I want is a friend Eve, same as you do. Someone I can talk to, someone who will listen and understand the words I say."

He leaned down and gently cupped her face with both hands," Someone like you... my dear..."

"You have a slick tongue Pitch..."

She said slapping away his hands,

"But I will never buy into such rubbish... Not again. so I'll have to ask you to leave my forest..."

Pitch clinched his fists at his side, but chose to smile instead of threaten her,

"As you wish, but I know you'll see the darkness sooner or later..."

He said disappearing.
