Hey guys. Finally , I'm back. Sorry, I've been gone so long. Well this time it's Jack's turn to tell his side of the story. I hope you all enjoy this one.
Chapter 8 – Letter
Jack's POV
Here in the kingdom of Burgess, snow falls almost every single day. It actually became famous because of that. People from all around the world come and visit this place to have fun and relax.
The people are always having fun playing in the snow. The children are going skiing, throwing snowballs at each other, sledding, and making snowmen.
And the king who rules this kingdom is me. My name is Jackson Overland Frost. I have the power to create snow, ice, and frost which is the reason why snow falls every day here and I can also fly or more like ride the wind.
I was at the library, where we usually have our boring meetings and such. I was never really good at these kinds of things, I often fall asleep cause well… it's freakishly BORING. Right now the meeting has ended, and we were just cleaning up a few things. I'm often here because I actually kind of like to read some books especially ones that tell me about my powers and where it came from.
I had these powers ever since I almost died when I fell into the frozen lake. I was trying to save my sister at that time and luckily I did but the ice suddenly cracked below me and I fell. The next thing I knew when I woke up I had these powers to make snow. It's been ten years since then.
I don't often stay here in Burgess because I still have to bring winter to different parts of the world. But recently I found out about a certain queen who has the same powers as me. I received an invitation from them for the wedding of the queen's sister. I went to Arendelle to see if the queen really has the same powers as me.
I was flying around the village of Arendelle. I saw the people getting ready for the ball. A lot of banners with the royal crest were set all around the village. I went to the castle, and saw the courtyard where a beautiful lady was standing.
"Hmm... could she be..." I wondered
"William, can you hand me the design for the courtyard please?" the girl said to the butler
"Here you are your majesty, the courtyard design for today's event?"
"So she's the queen of Arendelle…"
"Thank you, by the way is Anna up already? She's supposed to be organizing the church with Kristoff."
"I think she is on her way, I have already woken her up before I came here."
"Then were could she possibly be? She couldn't have fallen asleep again, could she?"
"Do you want me to check up on her again?"
Then all of a sudden, a crash coming from the castle. I was startled and turned my head to the castle buildings.
"…pfft… No, I don't think you need to, since she's obviously wide awake, including the whole castle." She laughed.
I felt something warm in my heart, it wasn't painful or anything but it's something I never felt before. Suddenly a girl came running toward her.
"Huff huff huff… morning Elsa!"
"Good morning to you too, Anna. You arrived just in time"
"Just in time for what?"
"For this!"
She pulled her dress up and stepped her foot on the ground and whole floor was covered with ice.
"No way… so it is true…"
She waved her hands over the two fountains and made ice sculptures of a man and a woman who looked just like that strawberry-blonde haired girl.
"I guess that's the one who's going to get married…"
Then she made an ice arch, that has flower-shaped ice all over. Afterwards, with another step on the ground the stone columns, surrounding the courtyard, were decorated with leaf-shaped frost vines. She waved her hand and made snowmen at the sides.
"Woah… she's pretty good…"
"Wow, Elsa this is… amazingly cool! And I meant that literally, hahaha."
"Haha, thanks, but it's not yet finished, I still have to create a giant snowflake as a sign to open the gates so that the people can come in and begin the wedding"
"Wow…You really out did yourself this time"
"But of course, anything for my little sister especially on her big day"
"Thank you so much Elsa"
I started to play around with my powers since I doubt anyone will notice and if anyone did notice they'll just think that the queen made it. I made big beautiful sparkling snowflakes to keep myself from being bored while waiting for the party to start.
"Oh, wait a minute what are you doing here anyway, Anna?"
"Huh? Why I came to see—"
"Me? But aren't you supposed to be with Kristoff, organizing the plan for the church and practicing your vows?
"OH NO I FORGOT!"
"Woah!" I was surprised that I accidentally dropped the one I was making
"Wha—"
"I gotta go now… see you later, bye!"
"…bye… will she be alright?"
She spotted the snowflake and picked it up.
"Is this a snowflake? It's as big as my hand. That's weird I don't remember making one… and the design, it's different from the ones I make… hmm, did I make it unconsciously? My powers are probably just getting stronger again."
She hid the snowflake inside her dress and went inside the castle.
"Great, now what do I do? I whispered to myself
The wedding ceremony has ended and all of the people proceeded to the ballroom. I was tired from all the excitement so I went to rest at the balcony. I suddenly heard someone walking closer so I flew over the roof. It was Queen Elsa.
"Huh? She looked kind of sad…" I whispered "Wait—is that my—?
She took out the snowflake that I made earlier.
"I seriously don't remember making this, maybe my powers are growing again. But … if it is growing that means that I'm a danger to everyone… all over again. I mean…. If i probably made this unconsciously who knows what else I made and it could endanger everyone…"
"No it isn't, haha" I covered my mouth with my hand, I laughed unconsciously and it probably was a bit loud.
"It must have been my imagination."
"Well looks like my cover's blown any way…" I jumped off the roof and was floating in front of her
"WAAAH!"
She was obviously surprised and shocked. I mean who wouldn't be if they just saw a man flying in front of them. She turned around and started to walk away.
"Hey! Wait a minute…" I grabbed her arm to stop her. "Why are you suddenly walking away?"
"Y-you're…"
"You were probably just freaked out, weren't you?" I chuckled at her reaction
"W-well yeah, sort of… sorry"
"Nah, it's alright… it's kind of normal anyway… I mean it's not every day that you see a person flying, right?"
"Thanks, what were you doing there anyway?"
"I was flying around to look for the snowflake I dropped on the way here, and then I saw you holding it."
"Oh, that was yours? Here…" she took the snowflake from her pocket and handed it back to me
"Thanks"
"You're welcome"
"Umm, can I ask you something?"
"What is it?"
"That snowflake, where did it come from? It's definitely ice, right? But it never melted nor mixed with the snow when I found it…"
"Oh, that's because I made it" I smiled at her
"Huh?"
"Haha, here I'll show you…" I lifted my hand and conjured up a snowflake
"Wha—how did you—"
"Haha why do you seem so surprised? You have this ability too, right?
"I do but it's just that I never met anyone with powers like my own…"
"Me too, I—"
"Your highness!"
The butler from before suddenly came.
"Yes, William what's the matter?"
I couldn't hear what they were talking about very well but it looked like it was really important. She came toward me, it seems that she'll be leaving.
"I have to go"
"It's ok, I come talk to you again some other time, soon" he smiled
"Ok bye"
"Till we meet again your royal highness" I bowed then laughed since I think it's kind of silly for me to be doing this. She also laughed at me a bit for doing this.
I flew away and went to catch up with my friends at the ballroom.
"Hey Jack…" someone grabbed my shoulder and I snapped out of my flashback
I turned around and I saw that Toothiana was the one who grabbed me and behind her was North, Sandy, and Bunnymund. They are my older cousins and they are currently living with me in Burgess. Just to make the introduction short: Toothiana is the Tooth fairy, North is Santa Claus, Sandy is the Sandman, and Bunnymund is the Easter Bunny.
"Oh hey guys. What's up?"
"We were wondering if everything's alright with you…" said Toothiania
"Huh? Of course it is… why do you say so?" I answered
"Well… you've been staring into space very often." said North
"I- I have?"
"Yeah you have. There's obviously some problem you have that you're not telling us, mate" said Bunnymund
They were all worried. I can't believe that even Bunnymund is worried about me. We usually fight each other. Sandy was even making a figure above his head of a thermometer and medicine.
"No, Sandy I'm not sick… probably…"
"Jack, this doesn't have anything to do with a certain queen we met at the ball, does it?" North asked
"WOAH! WHAT?" I was surprised at North's question. He definitely hit a bull's eye on me.
"No way! Really, really, really Jack! Has our little Jackie finally grown up?! Finally your first crush! Oh, I can't wait to have the tooth that contains that memory." Tooth became all of a sudden energetic as if she just swallowed three cups of sugar.
"No! it's not—"
Sandy made sand fireworks and hearts all over the room. North and Bunnymund just laughed very loud at this situation.
"Well congrats on this one Jack!" North said as he strongly shook my hand
I knew I couldn't win this battle over so I just gave up and told.
"Okay, OKAY! Fine, I give up! Just settle down."
They all stand still and kept quiet. Toothiania's eyes were sparkling and obviously couldn't wait any longer. They kept grinning at me, knowing that they've already got me.
"Fine… I- I might have a took… a bit of a… liking to her…"
"Yay!" Toothiana suddenly pounced me
We both fell on the floor. The others laughed at us. I couldn't but laughed with them.
I went outside to practice my powers and to play with the children of Burgess. I especially often play with my nephew, Prince Jamie and Princess Sophie Bennett though she often plays more with Bunnymund than me. We always play around the village with his friends. Every day I make it snow in Burgess. We would sled racing, and snowball fighting whenever we have the time to do so.
"Wow Jack! That was amazing, come on lets go on a sled again and this time make the hill higher!" said Jamie
"Yeah sure! I-" I saw Baby Tooth flying towards me in a hurry
She was flying around fast as if she want to tell me something urgent
"What is it Baby Tooth?" I asked
She started pointing at the castle. I think North might've sent her here to get me there and tell me an important announcement.
"Jamie!" I called
"What?" Jamie came running toward me
"Sorry, Jamie. I have to go. Apparently, they're calling me… we'll continue this some other time, okay?"
"Fine… I'll just play with the others…" Jamie walked away and to his friends
I quickly flew to the castle library to meet up with the others. I can't help but wonder why they summoned me.
I landed on the balcony and entered the library.
"Jack, you're here!" Tooth said with a sad face.
All of them wore the same expression but why…
"Hey guys, what's wrong?" I asked
"Jack…" North handed me a letter
I took the letter from him and saw that it has the royal crest of Arendelle.
"It's from Arendelle…"
None of them said a word, nor did Sandy made a sand figure. They were just standing quietly still.
I'm afraid know the contents of piece of paper but even so I still read it. When I saw it, I froze. I stood there silently, holding the letter almost crumpling it in my hands.
"To whom it may concern,
You are cordially invited to the engagement ball of Prince Edmund Westerguard of the Southern Isles and... Queen Elsa of Arendelle..."
I couldn't believe it. I felt as if my heart suddenly stopped and I couldn't breathe properly. I felt a great pain went through my heart as if my heart was going to break. This is the first time that I felt this kind of pain.
"I'm so sorry Jack…" Tooth gave me comforting embrace as my knees fell on the ground.
