Elsa's POV

Food. As soon as he said it, I felt my stomach's complaints. I went outside and did manage to find some berries. But they were frozen.

I experimented and popped a few in my mouth. They thawed just enough that I could crunch them, making a loud, crushing noise.

I decided to finish them, I didn't want Jack to make fun of me. I gave up on chewing them and just swallowed them whole. Hopefully that would be enough for now.

And I did feel a little stronger. Once Jack got back, I would send him away. I could still hurt him, even if he did have the curse. I walked inside my castle, and waited for the sound of footsteps.

I waited more. Maybe he wasn't coming back? I was slightly disappointed, because I had thoroughly prepared myself to send him away. It made my job easier in any case.

With my stomach settled, and my mind more at ease now that Jack wasn't coming back, I fell asleep again.

Paper chains girl walked up to me.

"Queen Elsa?" I smiled. Maybe she wanted me to help her make paper chains, or hang them up with her.

"Yes?"

"Why did you hurt Princess Anna?" Her words hurt me.

"I-what are you talking about?"

"Princess Anna. She says she remembers you hurting her. She says that you made her forget. Why did you do that to her? Then why did you stop talking to her, she just wanted to talk to you. I don't think she wants to talk to you ever again, now."

"I didn't mean to. Mama and Papa said it would be best..." Paper chains girl pointed her finger at me accusingly.

"Well, your Mama and Papa are dead. If we don't protect her from you, Princess Anna will be too!" As she talked, she changed from a girl to a young women, around my age.

"Tell Anna I love her." I stepped back several steps.

"That would be a lie." She sneered.

"I always loved her." I ran away. I was running through the snow when I tripped and woke up. I was shaking a little. Paper chains girl probably did hate me now that she had seen how dangerous I am. A tear rolled down my cheek. And then another.

Then I heard footsteps.

Jack's POV

When I got back, Elsa was sleeping. I went to my bedroom and laid down. I wondered how welcome I was here.

I sat, looking at the moon for a long time. I wondered if he had the answers to all my questions. I tried asking him a few, but eventually I stopped and went silent, falling into a daze.

Then I heard Elsa move around a lot. I'd better talk to her.

In my dazed state, it took my a moment to realize she had a tear on her cheek. She had tried to wipe it away discreetly, but had missed. I came completely out of my haze.

"Elsa, are you okay?"

"I'm sorry, you have to leave."

"Now?" I was a bit taken aback Maybe if I just avoided the subject, she would forget and let me stay.

"Yes." How best to avoid it? I formed a snowflake and blew it onto her face. She blinked and scrunched up her nose for a second. She was really cute when she did that. Though she can't love me if she just shuts me out. I smiled at her.

"You will leave in the morning." I put my hands up, like in surrender. I wasn't exactly surrendering though, I fully intended on leaving for breakfast. Then I'd come back. Maybe I could help her with her powers. If I could just get her to trust me. I went back to my room, plotting.

Elsa's POV

I slept again, nightmares were not restful. I managed to sleep with no dreams for a while. When I awoke, it was late morning. I hadn't meant to sleep that late, but I needed my rest to make Jack leave.

I went into his room, but I didn't find him there. I made a quick search of my castle, but he wasn't anywhere to be seen. I frowned. That just meant he was going to be coming back. It didn't seem like Jack to just leave.

I decided to hide. It may seem cowardly, but I wasn't going to run again, I wasn't sure of anywhere I could run to.

First-off, I did my best to change Jack's bed into a table. I stuck a couple of ice flowers into an ice vase. Then I ran into one of my extra rooms, and tried to find some nook or something to hide in. But I was losing hope, I couldn't thaw my ice, and there wasn't anywhere to hide.

I heard footsteps downstairs and panicked. I surrounded myself with layer after layer of ice. Leaving myself with only a couple of feet. I added two more layers, leaving me about three feet. I knew that Jack was going to find me. It was a huge ice dome in the middle of a room. But he couldn't get through. No one could get through.

It hit me. I couldn't thaw my ice, I was going to die in here. I began to cry a little, thankful that my ice was too thick for Jack to see me.

Jack's POV

I left before Elsa woke up. I thought I'd give some kids a snow day. They loved it.

I ran upstairs and went into my room, I usually walked around a little bit before checking on Elsa. I think she liked being able to hear me, so I wouldn't surprise her.

Unfortunately, it looked like Elsa had turned my room into a sitting room. There was a strange table with some ice flowers on it.

I walked into Elsa's room.

"Elsa?" She wasn't there. I stepped into her main room.

"Ellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllsaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" I hollered. No answer. I seemed like she was playing hide and seek. I smiled, I was good at seeking.

I eventually wandered into a room that had a large dome of ice within it. Oh, that wasn't such a great hiding spot.

I tapped on the ice with two fingers.

"Elsa, found you."

"Go away." I frowned, I was getting tired of this.

"Can't we talk about what's going on?" I could hear her crying now. She must have been sobbing when she finally got her words out.

"LEAVE ME ALONE. I just harm everyone." She got quieter. "Leave me alone to die."

Now I was really frustrated. No, I was angry. How could she talk like that? I wasn't going to let her die, never. No, I will never.

I don't know about my past, but I do know that I would never just let anyone die. Never.

Elsa's POV

I finished speaking, and he didn't answer. I was confused. I hadn't heard footsteps, so he couldn't have left.

I stared at my prison. I wondered how painful my death would be. I lost all my hope of getting out after I spoke those words. 'Leave me alone to die'. I guess that confirmed it.

I still heard nothing, but I started to see something. It was a brown stick. It was getting closer and closer. How was it getting through my ice?

Then I saw something half blue, half brown, connected to it.

I stared at it, wondering what it could be.

Then as it got clearer and cleared, I saw that it was Jack. But how?

He was thawing my ice?

I threw myself against my back wall, and added so many layers of ice, it almost touched me.

Jack got closer and closer.

Soon he reached my last layer of ice, and I closed my eyes, I didn't want to look at him. He pulled me up. I finally opened my eyes, expecting to see him smirking, but he looked angry.

He said nothing, and his brow furrowed.

He pointed his staff at my feet, and I watched in horror as they covered my feet, up to my ankles. Why was he trapping me?

Jack's POV

"Now tell me what's going on." I looked her in the eye. She shook her head.

"Elsa-"

"I'm scared. You're scaring me." Her ice walls had turned a dark gray. She sounded terrified.

I immediately thawed the ice around her feet.

"Elsa, I'm sorry. I just-was trying-Can't you tell me what's wrong? You can tell me, you can't hurt me. I would never try to hurt you."

She wrapped her arms around herself, and looked down at the ground.

"I'll be on the balcony when you're ready to talk." I walked onto the balcony. Why had I been so reckless? She probably would never trust me now.
