CHAPTER 2: THE PRINCESS' WEAKNESS

Winter season has come and Jack became busy for a few weeks. He really would like to finish his work so he could see how was the little snow princess. North and Bunny was satisfied of the absence of Jack Frost, but at the same time, the toy maker got himself worried about the willful kid.

NORTH POLE

North, the guardian of wonder, was fussing over his deadlines because of the peak season. Somehow he manage to send a summon for his friend, the Easter Bunny. Unfortunately, his mind is clouded by the word 'toys', 'kids' and 'Christmas Eve'. He was now in his office, trying to invent a new toy. Little did he know was his friend has arrived.

"Hey North!" the Bunny said plainly.

North drew out his sword from the table and points it to his friend.

"Whoa! Easy mate, it's me!" Bunny held his furry paws up.

"I'm sorry, Bunny…" the toy maker huffed as he sheathed back his sword. His right hand massaged his temples.

"You know, next time I get a summon from you, I'll start to have second thoughts about going here." the large rabbit joked.

"I'm just tired. I'm really sorry." North leaned on his chair.

"You're starting to get thin, is that a new way to lose weight?" the Easter Bunny pulled a joke again, but North just stared at him. "Regardless of being an immortal, you should still get some rest at least once in a while. Anyway, back to business, why am I here for?"

"It's about that pesky Jack. Have you seen him?" North said.

"Is he causing some ruckus again? 'Cause I'll be happy to help you and give him a piece of my mind." Bunny gave a cruel smile.

"No, no. I haven't seen him for a while. I'm quite happy about his absence but it's not like him." the old man hissed.

"You really are tired mate, worrying about him is unlikely you. I've never seen him inside or outside the Warren for a while too. Just be happy about it, okay? Actually, we should thank the thing that keeps him busy." Bunny said while painting an egg.

"Thing?" North retorted.

ARANDELLE PALACE

Its midday in Fjord and there's a light snowfall that covered the whole city. Thinking that it's a nice day to play, the weather made a little girl go thrilled. Anna, the cheerful strawberry-blonde princess of Arandelle ran towards her sister's bedroom. She knocked with a delightful tone on the white door.

"Elsa? Do you wanna build a snow man?" she waited for a reply but no one answered.

"Come on, let's go out and play!" the giddy little girl raised her voice as if her sister can't hear her from the other side. There was no respond again and let out a disappointing sigh.

"I never see you anymore. Please, come out the door. It's like you've gone away." she ducked and looked through the gap at the bottom of the door but she didn't see her sister. "We used to be best buddies and now we're not. I wish you would tell me why…" still hoping, she stood up and started speaking through the keyhole of the door. "Do you want to build snowman? It doesn't have to be a snowman."

"Go away Anna." her sister finally answered, but didn't expect that she will send her away.

"Ok… Bye." the little girl frowned and walked away.

Elsa's POV

"I'm sorry…" I whispered, tears are building up on my eyes but I wiped them right away.

'I felt really bad when I said those things to Anna, but she must be kept away from me, I don't want to hurt her ever again.' I lifted up the curtain of my window and I saw the light snowfall outside. It could be the reason why Anna wants me to play with her. I tied the curtains and excitedly leaned on the window sill, but I only felt a well-known cold pulsing out of my hand, I casted a thin ice on the window sill by mistake. Immediately, I cringed and took my hands off the window, I walked towards my bed.

While looking down on my palms, I heard a low freezing shriek by the window. I got scared but my body moved on its own and forced myself to turn around. The next thing happened was, I saw my window being covered with ice frost. It was moving, making swirling floral designs from outside until it covered all the corners of my window glass. 'It's not me.' I thought to myself. I almost touched the window glass, but I stopped, remembering the part where I freeze everything I touch. I just stood still before the frosted window, feeling contented to just stare at the beautiful ice latched to it.

A couple of knock pulled me back to reality.

"Elsa?"

'It's my father!' I gasped. I looked back on the window then to the door. 'What would he say if he saw this?' I was so scared, I untied the curtains swiftly to cover the ice.

"Elsa? Open the door, I have something for you." my father knocked again and urged me to open my door.

"I'm coming Papa!" I looked around if I left something out of order.

I was relieved to see that everything in my room is normal. I walked proudly towards the door and open it. It was only my father, usually my mother will be standing next to him when they visit me. I smiled genuinely in front of my father.

"May I come in?" the king said calmly to me.

"Of course, what do you have for me?" I said I my eyes followed a small box on my Papa's hands as he walk inside my room.

"Well I—" my father was cut off when he took a glance on my fireplace.

"No wonder you look so pale, aren't you cold?" he sighed and kneeled down in front of the fireplace to light it up.

"I don't feel cold." I put my hands on my back.

He gestured his free hand to come near him in front of the fireplace and I gladly obeyed.

"Remember what I said to you before? About controlling your powers?" he said while opening the small box. He was still kneeling with one knee in front of me.

I just nodded while eyeing the box whereas it was being opened, but my excitement was replaced by uncertainty, for the box contains two small white cloths.

"The gloves will help." he held his hand out, asking me to give my hand to him.

I obliged myself to comply. He was wearing me the gloves that he brought. It was really nice and it fits me perfectly, but it doesn't feel right. When he finished covering my hand, he finally spoke.

While holding both of my hand he said "See? Conceal it." I knew what he was going to say next so I spoke with him at the same time. "Don't feel it. Don't let it show." It's for best for all the people around me.

"Thank you, Papa." I hugged my father tightly and he kissed me goodbye.

When he left, I immediately ran towards my huge covered window and pulled the curtains off. The frosting is still there but the heat coming from the fireplace is ruining it. The first thing came to my mind was to put the fire out. I remembered the ceramic jar over my nightstand that has water on it. The idea was to grab the jar and throw the water to perish the fire but I realized it as too late already. Slowly, the heat melted away the cold markings on my window. Another idea came to my mind and it was a dangerous one. I swallowed the lump on my throat and removed both of my gloves off my hand.

"I can do this." I whispered to myself.

I slowly placed both of my hand on the window and concentrate to make a copy of the frostings that was there before. Instead of spiral frostings, I covered the glass and the diamond-shaped grids with thin lucid ice that has light shades of purple and blue, making it look like a lean stained glass.

Jack's POV

I heard what her father said to her and also her little sister. I was already here before her sister came. I decided to stay with her and watch her for a while. I hovered steadily a meter away outside her window and saw the frosting that I made on her window was gone, but I saw her delightful smile while manifesting ice on the window.

"Not bad, Kiddo." I was amazed by the princess' ice, but my fascination was cut off when huge icicles came out from the glass of her windows and breaks loudly together with a loud shriek from the little girl.

"No…" I flew inside immediately to see if she was okay.

"Elsa!" Both of her mother and father yelled as they burst into her room. "Are you okay? What happened?" her mother hugged her while his father examined her room.

The room alone was fine but the window was shattered because of large icicles. Her ice frostings was scattered on the wall near the window. Some broken spikes of ice has spread out on the floor, the rest are still attached on the window's remains.

"Elsa…" her father sighed and picked her white gloves on the floor.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry." the blonde princess cried and her mother tightened her hold onto her, rubbing her small back to ease her.

"It wasn't her fault! She's just excited." Jack blurted while floating over them.

The king opened her mouth to say something but it was interrupted by a couple of servants who followed them inside the room.

"You highness! What happened!?" they both gasped at the scene.

"Get Elsa another room, be quick about it!" the king commanded and the two left immediately.

King Agdar shook his head and walked towards her frightened daughter. Maybe he was thinking over some damage control over the staffs. I stepped in front of him to stop him but he just passed through me. I became nervous while their proximity was closing. He knelt before his queen and princess and let out all his agitation through his breath.

"I'm not mad at you, Elsa." His father hushed her sobs and put her on the white gloves.

"Elsa?" Anna suddenly appeared on the doorway.

All of us turned our attention to the little girl at the door. She looks worried about her big sister and she was about to run towards her.

"Anna, come. I'll show you something. Idun, lead Elsa to her room." the king of Arandelle rushed to his youngest daughter and almost pushed her out the door.

Elsa was still crying on her mother.

"Her emotions affects her powers. That's all. She didn't mean any of this to happen!" I hissed and flew outside the broken window. I wished more to be seen now and wished to care for the child as she grows up. I let out another sigh and watch the whole port of Arandelle.

"I'll teach her to control her powers so she won't be afraid anymore." My brows furrowed at the next thing that popped in my mind. "But, how?"
