First Scare | Video

[shadowbound]

[The video feed comes to life, revealing one of the cabins. Limited light filters in from the window, drapes pulled closed, but a single candle lit up the desk in which a figure sat at.

The flame flickers, revealing a man's face, highlighting his displeased face. With his lips pursed, silver eyes narrow at the video feed, which changed to gold whenever the light from the candle shone in their direction.

Those eyes roll in their sockets, and the man looks away, his face enveloped in shadows once more.]

This is ridiculous. [He mutters into the darkness, exhaling heavily through his nostrils.]

Reduced to nothing but almost a mere mortal. [The spirit lifts his hand, his eyes concentrating on it. But for the nth time, nothing came. His hand shook and the side of his fist slams onto the desk.]

Locked up like some criminal. Unacceptable. This is no place for me. [His hand soon rests on his face, running down the front of it, pulling at skin.]

What am I even talking about; no one will hear me on this thing. Why even bother?

[Pitch is taken aback by the compliment. Well then, that was a first in the boogeyman's book. Those eyes of his blink before he recollects himself.]

Ah yeah. I'm Pitch Black.

It's nice to meet you, Pitch Black. I'm a warden here.

You're a warden? Aren't you a little young to be a warden?

[She's used to this by now, but there's still a barely audible sigh.] I turned twenty-four recently, I just won't ever look it.

And why won't you ever look your age?

Because my ability more or less stopped me from aging years ago. [Though there's honestly no 'less' about it, because it had done so for Adam, had done so for Sylar.] I don't know how, just that it happened.

What does your ability consist of, exactly? Shape-shifting or something else entirely?

Healing. Technical, sciency name is rapid cellular regeneration. Maybe it sees aging as an infection or something? You know, with old age comes ailments, and I can't ever get sick, so. [Pulls a 'IDEK' face.]
