Hi everybody 3 here's the next part! thank you for reading ;)
Chapter three
It was the evening the next day, and Elsa had spent her entire day weeping in the Closet.
- You look absolutely wonderful, my dearies. – Gothel exclaimed at Ariel and Anna. – Absolutely splendid, I tell you! God help me if the prince doesn't fall for one of you.
Ariel and Anna – in matching blue and green gowns- looked at each other. Ariel looked smug but different emotions were tugging at Anna's heart. She didn't want Elsa to be locked up. Secretly, she always admired her and she knew if she had the chance, she would make the prince fall in love with her. That's why she did it.
- I need to go to the bathroom, before we go- Anna said and slipped out into the corridor. She went to the bathroom and on the way back, unlatched the doors to Elsa's closet.
- Elsa? I know you're in there.- Anna whispered – I'm on your side. Go to the ball. I want you too. Your secret is safe with me; I'll keep mother and sister away for the ball. They won't see you.
- Why are you doing this?- Elsa whispered. It was clear she had been crying.
- I like you Elsa. You're going to have to fetch a dress from somewhere. This is as much as I can help you. Good luck.
And then they were off. Elsa sat, stunned, in her closet for a while, and then got up, ecstatic. She was going to see jack. She thought she might try her sisters' bedroom and find a dress there, but the doors were smartly locked and so were her mothers. She couldn't go in her rags or her male attire and Rapunzel was probably at the ball already. She sat outside of her house and breathed in the fresh summer air. A single tear rolled down her cheek. And then there was a sudden pop. Elsa looked up, startled, to see a girl. She had a mass of bright red hair, green eyes and was floating above the ground.
- Hey girl! Merida, reporting for action. Aye, sir. What's it to be? A new house? Money? Or a boy?- She winked at Elsa who gaped.
- What? Never seen a Brave, girlie?
- W-what?
- I'm here to help ya! Ya have to want to want something a lot for a Brave to appear, don't ya?- Merida said in a thick accent. – So what's it to be?
- I want to go to a ball…- Elsa started.
- Ah, a ball? No problemo, si, si a ball coming up. Ya want it here in the garden?
- No, there's a ball already. In the castle.
- Aye! Of course, a ball, yea! So whatcha want, since there's already a ball?- Merida grinned.
- Well…- Elsa nibbled her lip.
- Spit it out, I aint got all day, sweet cakes.
- A dress would be good. And a carriage I suppose…
- Aye, we have a dress and a carriage!- Merida floated around Elsa. – We need'ta put yer hair down a little, the braid wound around ya head makes ya look like a boi!
Elsa laughed as Merida poked at her.
- And this attire. Ya sure yer not male?
- I'm sure.
- Fair enough. Okay! Here we go!
Merida waved her hand around Elsa and soon she was standing in a clinging turquoise dress that sparkled like snow, and her hair was in a loose braid falling down her shoulder. A little blue mask perched itself at the top of her nose.
- It's beautiful.
- Why, thank ya. Looks pretty good if I say so myself. Now, before we proceed…yer not the usual girlie, aren't ya?- Merida stared at her.
- Uh…well, not totally, no…
- Thought so! Don't worry, my lips are sealed. Although ya can't conceal yer talents foreva, can ya, girl?- with a wave of her hand a carriage appeared. – Now, ride. And have fun, wontcha? Loosen up a little, girl!- And with a mad cackle Merida was gone.
Elsa admired her dress for a minute before hopping into her carriage.
The Palace.
- She's still not here, is she?- Flynn looked around the crowd of dancing people. Jack nibbled his lip. He was nervous about what Elsa would say when she found out he was a prince, but now he was just nervous she wouldn't come.
- Maybe she's here, but you just don't recognise her. – Kristoff said. Jack shook his head.
- I would recognise her anywhere.
- Well, if you find her, inform me. I'm going to go dance with Rapunzel again. – Flynn said and sauntered off.
- I think I'll ask that sweet ginger girl for a dance as well- Kristoff said to Jack. When the latter nodded, Kristoff walked over to Anna. Jack sighted. Now he was sure she wouldn't come. He was about to leave the dancing hall when…
The doors opened and a hush fell around the hall. A slender figure all in blue and turquoise, stood at the doors.
- She's here- Jack whispered to himself, in awe.
Elsa blushed when she saw everybody look at her. She quickly went down the stairs and refused a dozen dancing offers straight off, looking around for Jack. She was also cautious not to bump into Ariel or Gothel. Suddenly, she was being twirled round, someone's warm hand on her waist.
- Hello- said a white haired man in a mask, and his voice sounded vaguely familiar.
- Uh, I'm sorry, I can't dance right now. I'm looking for someone. – Elsa said.
- Just one dance- The man said.
- I really can't…
- I insist. – When the man stubbornly pulled her closer, Elsa sighted and let herself be twirled round and round. She felt safe and relaxed in the arms of that stranger, and she didn't know why.
- What's your name?- She asked after a while.
- Flynn- The man blurted out.
- And you're…
- The prince.- Flynn said. – And you're?
- Elsa. No title. – Elsa smiled. – Are we allowed to take our masks off?
- Not until midnight- Flynn-Jack said quickly and glanced at the clock. Half an hour. The dance came to an end.
- I really have to go now. Thanks for the dance, Flynn- Elsa said and turned around. Jack grabbed her waist and pulled her back to him.
- Dance with me.
- I just did, Flynn, and I have to see someone.- Elsa said, blushing.
- No! Just stay here and dance with me.- Jack said.
- Flynn, let go of me.- Elsa pushed him away.
- Please, just one more.- He whispered and Elsa stopped in her struggle.
- Just one, then. – Elsa whispered. They ended up dancing all the way through three dances. They didn't relise they were dancing for so long until the clock struck midnight. Jack cursed in his head and Elsa took a step back.
- Time to take our masks off- She said with a smile, and with a flush she took the blue mask off. Jack was stunned into silence, she was just so beautiful. All around them, people were taking off their masks.
- Flynn, your turn!- Elsa laughed. Jack shook his head.
- No, I can't.
- What? Just show me your face.
- No- Jack took a step back. And suddenly Elsa was in front of him and ripping his mask off.
Silence.
- Jack…- Elsa took a step back. – You're the prince?
- Elsa, please, I'm sorry…
- You lied to me…
- No, it's not like that!- Jack walked over to her and tried to take her hand but Elsa backed away, shaking her head.
- The prince! You're the prince and you didn't tell me!
- Elsa, wait! - Jack grabbed her hands and pulled her towards him.
- No! Let me go!- Elsa yelled at him but he didn't budge.
- Please, I didn't think you would like me if you knew…
- So you decided not to tell me? Very smart! Now let me go! - Elsa screamed at him, tears pooling in her eyes. And here she thought they had a future together. Stupid.
- It's not like that!
- Let me go!- Elsa pushed him but he kept a hold of her hands. It happened then.
A gush of ice flew from her hands and hit Jack in the chest. He hit the opposite wall. People all around her gasped, and moved away. The guards stepped forward.
- Sorcery!
- Witch! Catch her!
- Get away from her!
- No! Stay away!- Elsa cried as the guards neared her. Ice exploded around her. With a sniff she turned around and ran.
