Why did the man on the moon decide to send him a message now? And most importantly, why with Bunny? Couldn't he pick someone who wasn't such an asshole?
Oh, well, Jack thought. Even if Bunny is a killjoy, it might be a lead to find about his past.
So here he was, Jack Frost, flying to a little kingdom called Arendelle. What he would find, he didn't know, but he hope it would be worth all this trouble.
"Elsa, I know you want to play with Anna, but you can't control your powers yet. You could hurt her, just like the last time," King Agdar said.
"I know, but, Papa, I'll be careful this time and I promise not to use my ice powers. Please?" all Elsa could do was hope that the king would say yes.
"No."
"But Papa, please, just let me play with Anna for a little bit. I'll be good," Elsa said as her big, blue eyes filled with tears.
"Elsa, no," King Agdar said, his voice much brusquer than before.
Elsa knew that the king was only trying to protect Anna, but it still stung that she had to give up her sister. All she wanted was for the curse to go away and let her be normal.
As the king turned to leave Elsa's room, he heard his daughter start crying silently. He sighed and with a much gentler voice said, "Elsa, I know that you miss Anna but until you learn to control your powers, you have to stay away from Anna. It's for the best."
Elsa had stop crying, but only because she was holding the tears back. The king saw through her and said "Elsa, come. I have something for you. It might cheer you up."
The king took Elsa to his study, and went to his desk. He opened a drawer and took out an aged book. "This book used to be my favorite when I was your age. It's filled with stories of faraway lands and adventures. And now it's yours to explore," the kind said with a smile.
Elsa looked at it in wonder; she had never seen something more fascinating. She smile as she took it and exclaimed "Thank you, Papa! I love it. I promise that I'll take good care of it."
"Now, Elsa, go back to your room, I have things to do," the king said with a smile, his eyes filled with love for his eldest daughter.
"I will, Papa," Elsa said.
Elsa ran to her room, in a hurry to see the wonderful worlds her book had to offer.
She read until it was time for dinner. Then after dinner, she read some more. It was past bedtime, but she couldn't stop reading. Specially now, she had just gotten to a story about a boy with ice powers, just like her. His name was Jack Frost and he was the spirit of winter. He could make snow and ice, but unlike her, he was happy and carefree.
Elsa kept on reading until she was done with the Jack Frost story. As she was getting settled in bed, she saw a shadow by her window. All logic a little girl could
possesed, left her as she was consumed by fear. She tried to scream, but the fear clogged her throat.
Jack had arrived at Arandelle. The kingdom was small, but Jack felt at home in this place. He didn't know why but he felt a weird presence in Arendelle. It wasn't bad, he just couldn't place it. As he got closer to the castle, the feeling grew. He followed the feeling until he got to a window. Jack knew that whatever was causing that feeling was behind the window. 'Maybe,' he thought, 'it's a link to my past.'
He took a deep breath, then as he released it, he went through the window.
Jack didn't know what he expected, but he certainly did not expect to find a little girl reading. The girl couldn't be more than ten, then why was she awake at such a late hour? He didn't know, all he knew was that this little girl was giving him weird feelings.
Jack stood by the window trying to figure out the weird feeling this little girl was giving him. He lost track of time, and by time he realised he was still in the young girl's room, he heard a small whimper.
Jack focused his eyes, and all he saw was big blue eyes filled with terror. Holy shit, Jack thought, this kid can see me. He was euphoric that the girl could see him. All his thoughts were consumed by the fact that someone could see him. Traveling all the way to Arandelle was worth all the trouble, if it meant that he could finally be seen.
Jack heard a small whimper, and he was brought down to reality again. He looked at the frozen young girl, and… 'Wait, is the girl really frozen, as in cover in ice?' Jack thought 'or is my mind playing tricks?' Jack looked closer at the young girls and saw that yes, she was covered in ice.
"Holy shit," Jack whispered, too low for the girl to hear.
As Jack recovered from his shock, he realised that the girl looked like she wanted to cry for help. He quickly tried to look as harmless as possible.
"You can see me?" Jack ask, his voice barely loud enough for the girl to hear him.
The girl nodded her head, but didn't not relax from her fear. Jack knew that this was his best chance to be seen by someone. So, he tried his best to calm her down.
"So, uhm, what's your name?" Jack tried to say as friendly as possible.
"E-E-Elsa. Elsa, Princess of Arendelle," as the girl said this she straightened up.
"Well, nice to meet you Elsa, Princess of Arendelle," Jack said with a smile, "My name is Jack Frost."
Elsa's eyes got even wider, her mouth forming a small o. "Jack Frost, as in the winter spirit?" the young girl ask excitedly. A smile beginning to form in her face. She look expectantly at Jack, her face full of wonder.
"Well, yeah, I guess I am," Jack said.
"Wow, is it true you can make it snow? Can you make things come to life? Do you really control winter? If you're the winter spirit, are there also spring, summer, and fall spirits? Do can you really fly? How long-"
"Woah, easy there, Elsa. One question at a time please," Jack said with a laugh.
Elsa looked like she could hardly contain her excitement. But she did what she was told. "Could you teach me how to control the snow and ice?" she asked, eyes looking expectantly at Jack.
Jack laughed; it wasn't a mean laugh, it was more of an adult being amused by a child laugh. "I would but you would have to have ice powers in order for you to be able to control the ice and snow."
Elsa let out a sigh and close her eyes. When she opened them, there was a small snowball in her hand.
Jack looked at her, not sure how to feel. All he knew was that she was the reason he had that weird, unexplainable feeling earlier. Was it because she had ice powers too? It was the most logical reason, so he went with it. "I-I could help you learn how to make big snow storms and how to freeze someone's pants off," Jack answered with a small smile, a look of mischief crossing his face.
Elsa shook her head, "No, I don't want to learn any of that. I just want to learn how to control them to the point that I can be normal. I don't want them anymore."
"Why?" was all Jack's mind could make him say.
"I don't want them anymore, they hurt the people I love. They aren't normal and I hate them."
All Jack could do was stared at Elsa. Her face was filled with pain and he just didn't know what to do.
"I can help you discover the beauty of them, if you want to."
Elsa shooked her head, "No, there's no beauty in my powers."
At this Jack knew he had to prove her wrong. He grabed his staff and made a small, white owl out of snow and made it dance around her. She smiled, then laughed delightfully.
"Wow, that was amazing. How do you do that?"
"It took years of practice, but I think I can teach you how to do it. Now, what do you say? Ready for me to teach you how wonderful winter can be?" Jack said with a smile.
Elsa smiled and nodded.
And in that moment Jack felt true happiness course through him.
