Chapter 12

As Always, Happy Reading! (and sorry this took so long to update)

Previously…

They finally left the industrial section of the city when a black SUV pulled in front of them.

The door opened and a bulky man with a red polo shirt stepped out, wearing a pair of shades.

He lowered his sunglasses and looked at them with icy blue eyes.

"Half of you" he began dramatically "Were not supposed to be alive"

Jack looked up in total surprise.

"Hey North… what are you doing here?" he said almost nervously, avoiding his eyes, which looked illuminated like Christmas Lights.

Evil Father Christmas stalked up and surrounded them back into the doorway where they exited. Nick's eyes flicked with fury, but then it ebbed away, leaving a look of amusement.

"Ah! Ms. Arendale. Long-time no see. I see that despite my best efforts, you are still here, chasing your dear sister like a fox trying to taste the grapes"

Elsa snarled angrily at the big man. "At least this fox caught the grapes"

Nick grimaced, and slapped Elsa on the cheek. Anna winced and Jack immediately delivered a kick on Nick's stomach.

"Nick, what the heck are you doing here? And why are you acting like this?"

Nick straightened up and shot Jack a look of pure disgust. "Boy, I told you to go to Greece and only save the girl. You come back with the girl, her sister and a random dying man?"

Elsa stared up at Nick defiantly, despite the red handprint that was on her face. "Nick, I knew you from a long time ago. You were not like this. No matter how overbearing you were, no matter how much you bossed us around, you LOVED. You made toys for the homeless shelters and volunteered at the soup kitchens. What happened to that?"

Suddenly, Nick looked very old. "Well I cannot expect a rich lady like yourself to understand, Little Miss privileged, you had the entire agency wrapped around your little finger the moment you came into the doors. I tried to kill you off in plenty of missions, but with random dumb luck, you managed to come back"

Elsa's eyes were like saucers as she soaked in the information.

Nick continued "with you as part of the team, we had so many sponsors, over ten billion per year came into the agency, and into my pocket. I bought my nephew so many toys that Christmas –"

"You took money out of the company account?!" asked Jack, spitting out the words.

Nick shot him a glare. "Silence boy. When you left," he said, turning back to Elsa "The sponsors stopped. My entire livelihood was broken, and it was all because a pretty girl left. I wanted to ruin you, destroy your finances, bit you were surrounded by dumb luck. That pathetic dress shop pulled more revenue than my entire agency that year"

The five were staring wide eyed at Nick North while he continued to rant.

"I needed money. My wife was going to divorce me, the government cut off all private funding, and what I worked for was going to crumble. So I called up an old friend of ours. I told them that they could have you for five billion. It was an easy sell; you did manage to incarcerate over 100 of them anyways. But now, you're out. And that means I don't get the money"

North stared with dark eyes as two more SUV's turned the corner, and suddenly trapped the five.

"Unfortunately for you, I need the money"

There were now three SUV's surrounding the five people, Nick stood in front of them, with a SUV behind them.

"Now, boys and girls, be good, and give up and go to the van" said Nick "We'll do a personal delivery"

Elsa, Jack, Anna, Sophie and an injured Kristoff looked at Nick. Slowly, Elsa approached the van, but she heard a few sounds from inside. Elsa opened the van door and let out a shriek. She jumped aside just in time to see a blonde girl jump out of the van with a frying pan, aimed right at Nick.

"Punzie!" screamed Anna

Nick had incredibly fast reflexes and dodged the blonde, and whipped out a pistol from one of his pockets.

"Not smart, blondie, but when were blondes ever smart?" he pointed the pistol at Rapunzel's alarmed face.

"I think someone needs to be taught a lesson on self-control" said Nick, and he pressed the trigger. A loud BANG ran across the space. Only Jack and Kristoff's screams of "NO" could be heard above the sound of the gunshot.

-OOO-

Elsa was behind Rapunzel when she saw the bullet heading towards her in slow motion, like an action movie that had scratches. Elsa quickly pulled Rapunzel behind her and brought her arms up to her head to shield her face.

Elsa looked forward; ready to die with her eyes on her sister when something truly strange happened. The bullet bounced on her hand cuff, which she stole from HQ, and rebounded back towards Nick. Nick shot her a startled expression as the bullet rushed back full force and found itself lodged between his eyes.

Nick looked alarmed, and what happened was just starting the process through his mind when he groaned and fell backwards, his gun crashing onto the floor. Elsa felt Punzie gasp behind her, and she looked incredulously at Jack, and she saw him smirk at her bracelet. Of course, the greatness of Modern gadgets had saved them once again.

-OOO-

As soon as Nick fell onto the floor, Jack felt victory course through his veins, until the doors of the two other SUVs opened and two men jumped out, and grabbed Rapunzel and pointed a gun at their head did his euphoria ebb away.

"Go In the van, or the pretty blonde gets it" snarled a man in the black suits.

Jack had a flash of panic as he saw Elsa reasoning with them, and his eyes drift to the ground to the pistol that Nick had dropped when he was hit with his own bullet, he met eyes with Elsa once, as she looked back, and he nodded in response as she eyed the gun as well.

"You now, you shouldn't be too sure bout that" said Jack as he quickly grabbed the pistol and aimed it at one of the guard's face, while Elsa managed to whip one from a pocket and directed it at the other man's face.

"You see, our guns are fixed on you, and you think that its remotely okay to have your gun pointing at someone else? Priorities gentlemen." Said Elsa, calmly.

The two guards were flustered, not sure where to point their guns. Seeing this, Jack turned back to Elsa

"Are you in the mood for the dramatics?"

"Absolutely not"

The two men growled in impatience. Elsa and Jack didn't want to keep them waiting for too long and both of them pulled the trigger at exactly the right time, aiming for their collarbone. Both of them staggered and Rapunzel was free.

Elsa looked at them all and began running. The five followed her, and they climbed the roofs and landed next to her helicopter.

They all got in and Elsa swore under her breath as she stepped on the gas and the machine roared to life, flying into the sunset.

Epilogue is next, I it'll be short and fluffy

I hope you don't mind this; it is definitely a bit dense and very quick-paced. Make sure to tell me if anything was unclear or anything. I hope you enjoyed this series!

So I didn't kill any of them in this story… I didn't want to, everyone seemed so perfect. Well I did kill off the Bad guys but really who doesn't want a happy ending one time or another?

Make sure to leave a review and tell me how you liked this :D

Love, PomPom
