Hey guys, I just recently watched 'The Princess Bride' for the millionth time and thought I'd base a little one shot for it…JELSA STYLE!
Elsa sat at the edge her ice palace's balcony. She breathed in the cool crisp mountain air as a single tear rolled down her cheek. She missed Jack. It had been two years since the disappearance of the guardian. North had told her that he hadn't returned from a mission to destroy the remaining nightmares that wandered aimlessly around because of Pitch Black's death. Now that Jack was gone, many kings were trying to marry her off to their sons. The most persistent was Prince Hans of the Southern Isles, he was always visiting and trying to catch her attention. But she always left early and journeyed over to her ice castle. Were she could think about things and be away from the crowds of princes.
"Elsa I have to leave. I'll be gone for a couple of months.
Jack looked at her with his frosty blue eyes. Elsa hugged him, burying her nose into his shoulder.
"You have to come back as soon as you can, that is an order.
Jack bowed playfully, "As you wish."
The two kissed and Jack said goodbye and flew away.
He never came back. Elsa remembered hearing Bunnymund's theory that Pitch was back and had, well…it was too painful for Elsa to think about. She missed him. His sparkling blue eyes, his comforting hugs, his loyalty, his playful retorts like: "as you wish" whenever she asked him to do something.
The ice queen hugged her knees and tried to remember how loving and caring he was.
"Queen Elsa?"
Elsa immediately stood up, alarmed that someone was in her private sanctuary. She turned around only to see Prince Hans.
"Oh, you scared me!" She sighed.
"I am very sorry your majesty!" he apologized sincerely.
The prince stepped closer, "I wondered if you would like to go on a ride with me."
"But it's nighttime now..."
"A chance to see the beautiful moon and stars…Elsa sighed, she knew she would have to say yes or he would just come back to ask to do something else with her.
"Well then, let's go."
A grin immediately appeared on the prince's face and he rushed her down stairs and outside were two beautiful chocolate brown mares were waiting. Hans helped her up on her horse and they journeyed around the mountain.
"Princess, are you thirsty?" Hans inquired after a little bit.
"Yes, actually I am." Elsa nodded.
The prince slid off the side of his horse and walked into the forest of trees.
"I'll be back, princess!" Hans called.
"Ok!", she replied.
Looking around, Elsa thought about how scary it was to be alone in the woods. She not only hoped that the prince would be ok, but that she too would be safe. A bush nearby rustled and Elsa swiftly turned in the direction of the sound.
"Prince Hans?"
But, instead of the prince, someone walked out of the bushes.
A strangely and achingly familiar voice said, "Hello."
It was obviously a man's voice. He was wearing all black from head to toe, and even had a mask, gloves, and a bandana on.
"W-who are you?" Elsa questioned, her fear overcoming her normally composed poise. I'm about to be kidnapped and sold for ransom aren't I? thought with horror. She was even more horrified at the thought of using her powers to defend herself and accidentally killing the man.
"I'm going to kidnap you!" The man stated menacingly.
"What?!" Elsa shrieked as the man jumped right onto her horse pulling his arms around her and flicking the reins.
Shrieking,"Let me go!", Elsa struggled with the man.
"As you wish m'lady!"
Elsa froze for a second.
"Jack! Let me go!" Elsa giggled as the winter guardian picked her up off her feet and started to carry he with her slung over his shoulder.
"As you wish m'lady!" Jack mischievously grinned.
He let go of the princess and she was about to crash onto the ground when he swiftly took hold of her again.
The man let his arms fall off of her, and she almost fell of the horse. Elsa screamed. But instead of allowing her to fall, he grabbed her by her waist and hoisted her up again.
"What did you do that for?!"
"You told me to." He grinned.
After a couple of minutes, the man pulled the horse to a stop. And he removed Elsa off of the horse.
"Who are you?!" the queen shouted.
"You really don't recognize me?"
"How should I? You're covered in black from head to toe!"
"Well then."
The man pulled his bandana off his head, revealing snow white hair. He then slid his mask of his face.
"J-Jack?" Elsa whispered.
"Yes, it's me." He breathed, his arms resting on hers.
"Wait! It can't be you! He's dead! Get away from me!" Elsa yelled, pushing the man down a hill.
"As you wish!" the man cried as he tumbled down the hill, snow getting into his hair and covering his clothes.
Elsa eyes grew big.Jack? It really is him!
"Jack! Jack!"
Elsa tried to run down the hill after him, but ended up tripping and rolling down as well. She ended up landing right next to Jack and he got on top of her and kissed her.
"Why-why didn't you come back?", Elsa questioned after they broke apart for air.
"When I went to destroy the nightmares, Pitch came back. I lost my staff, so it was harder to defeat him. I don't remember what happened. The next thing I knew, I was waking up on top of a frozen lake with Man in Moon looking down at me.", Jack replied.
Jack held out his hand and helped Elsa up and they both walked over to a large boulder and sat down. Elsa rested her head on Jack's shoulder.
"I thought you were gone forever…" she breathed.
"I would never leave you…" he whispered.
They sat there, side by side, hand in hand, just cherishing one another's company. She thought to herself, I thought he left me, but he's alive! And now we're together! I'll cherish this moment while I still can.
Hans heard a scream. Elsa. He ran back to where he left her. Frantically, he looked around, but she was already gone.
"Elsa?! Elsa! Elsa!" The prince shouted at the top of his lungs. He had to find her. He was going to propose to her when they got to the lake at the end of the trail which wasn't far away. Hans jumped onto his horse and galloped to where he had left his men to stand guard.
"Come on! We have to find the queen!"
The men questioned Hans about how she left, but when they received no answer, they followed his orders anyway. The men followed their prince in the search.
Jack heard the galloping of horses and looked up.
"Prince Hans…" Elsa whispered.
Jack held tighter on Elsa's hand, he wasn't going to let a stupid prince take Elsa away from him. He just got Elsa back. They both stood up as the prince rode down the hill.
"Queen Elsa!"
The man jumped off his horse. He ran over to Elsa and was about to hug her but paused when he saw Jack. Jack's eyes narrowed as he saw the prince reach out to touch Elsa.
"Who are you?" Hans questioned gruffly.
"I'm Elsa's fiancé." Jack stated, thoroughly hating this Hans guy already.
Jack and Elsa were sitting on the roof of her ice castle. They laid next to each other, hand in hand, looking up at the stars.
"They're so beautiful."
Dozens of lights started to fall down in front of them.
"What is it?" Elsa asked.
"A meteor shower" Jack breathed out in response.
Elsa's eyes sparkled at the amazing lights that flew across the night sky. Jack dug his other hand into his pocket and took out a ring. It had a practically glowing white jewel at the top in the shape of a snowflake. He held it out in front of Elsa's face. Then he heard her gasp and chuckled.
"It's beautiful, Jack…"she said softly.
"Elsa, will you marry me?"
Elsa looked at Jack, her eyes glazed with tears, "Yes, Jack, of course!" She jumped on top of him and enveloped him in a hug.
They looked in each other's eyes.
"I love you Jack…"
"I love you Elsa…"
"Oh…" Hans looked down to his feet. He fingered the ring in his pocket.
"Then, I'll leave you two alone…" He started to walk away, but suddenly turned around and smiled almost evilly.
"But know this, I won't give up in trying to take your hand in marriage, Queen Elsa."
Then he walked away. Throwing the ring down into the snow. He turned to his right hand man.
"Let's go Pitch."
The man nodded and looked at Jack, whose mouth was open wide and smiled.
"See you later, Frost."
Jack stared at Pitch. Pitch?! Pitch Black?! He felt something warm touch his arm. He turned and saw that it was Elsa touching his arm.
"Let's go."
"Sure…"
He stood up and swept Elsa off her feet.
"Let's go snowflake."
Elsa giggled, "As you wish.
