Chapter 21: Elsa's POV
Its cold…
Elsa slowly open her eyes and groans. It hurts everywhere, and she feels weak. She tries look around. It's humid and dark, where she is, but she manages to make out that she is in a small room, maybe underground. She tries to move but finds herself chained in a standing position to the wall. She's got chains around her wrists that hold them up in an uncomfortable position that does not allow her to move more than an inch in both directions. Also her ankles are chained. She tries to cry, but her throat is too dry. Where is she? She isn't in one of the castle's prisons, that she is sure of. Her father never allowed the cells to be underground, he thought that it was inhumanly.
"Though they are prisoners, they are still humans" he used to say. Elsa always admired that about him. His compassion…
Elsa closes her eyes and tries to remember how she could have ended up here. Then she remembers what happened.
She had had a nightmare, and then someone had captured her. A voice… The most terrible voice Elsa has ever experienced. She opens her eyes and looks around again. Nothing can give her a clue as to where she is. Then the thought strikes her. Maybe she could use her powers like she did when Hans had captured her.
She tries to use them to destroy the chains holding her wrists, but she can't. The difference is that when she was at home, the chains had been surrounding her whole hand, and then she could just freeze her hand and break them up from the inside. And Jack had of course helped her... Then she tries to shoot ice at her ankles' chains, but she can't turn her palms in the right direction to hit her target. Then she tries to create snow in her hands, but nothing happens. Has she lost her powers? No, it can't be...
Elsa is becoming more scared by the minute. She can not use her powers, also, the cold is starting to get to her. For the first time in her whole life, Elsa's cold…
She opens her mouth and manages to utter a loud cry before she faints and everything goes dark...
When she wakes up again, a man is standing in front of her. His skin is gray and his long hair is black. His eyes are yellow. His whole body is covered in a black cape. (A/N: Pitch looks different than in RotG, because it's a different age) Elsa stares in horror at him, trying to pull in her chains, trying to break them. It hurts really bad and she can feel her blood running down her arm. The chains have gone through her skin. The man smiles at her struggle. It's a terrible smile, a smile that shows happiness at others pain.
"No use even trying sweetie" he whispers and Elsa gets goose bumps all over her body. She can not think of anything else than that she wants to get as far away from this man as possible. She can't imagine what this man can want from her. Maybe Arendelle? Or her hand in marriage. Did he want to become King? She pulls the chains again, although it hurts, and she can feel the chains tear through her flesh even more. She whines a little. The man continues as if he doesn't care about her pain. He probably doesn't either.
"The more you struggle against those chains, against me, the stronger I become, and the more you become mine. So continue as much as you wand dear..." He smiles terribly at her, and she sees that his teeth are sharp, like a predators. Then he turns his gaze down at her body. Elsa looks down at herself. Her dress is torn and has a reddish color. Her hair is black at the tips. She watches with horror in her eyes back up at the man and sees him waving his hand. Black snowflakes spins around his wrist. They are otherwise the same as hers, but that they are black makes them much more frightening.
"Incredible, this power, don't you think?" hisses the man. Didn't he say that his name was Pith? Pitch Black...
"And you.." he continues. "You are one feisty one. I never though that one little girl could survive that much pain at such a small age. You are stronger than you look like. I was totally prepared to own you before your coronation, but then everything went wrong… You were free, and some foolish boy came into the picture…"
Elsa's head snaps up at the mention of Jack. How did he know about him? He wasn't going to hurt him, was he? The though of Jack in pain, hurt, is terrible. It fills her with a great fear. The man lifts his looks up to her.
"Oh… so this boy means more to you than I though… I though that he was merely a friend of yours, two people sharing the same powers, but now I see that there's more… Your fear is way too big for a friend only. You… love… him." Then Pitch laughs. A laughter that makes her crouch of fear.
"This is better than I could ever imagine. I'll just get him here and maybe… torture him for a bit, and you'll be mine in a flinch."
Elsa can't believe what she's hearing. Torture Jack? No, no… He can't do that, he can't…
"No! Why are you doing this?" she screams. She pulls her chains even more. For the moment, she is not scared. She only wants to get loose, so she can hurt this man in front of her, make sure that he doesn't hurt Jack.
The man doesn't answer but his smile fades a little when he notices her lack of fear. But then he smiles again.
"You may not be afraid right now, sweetie, but you'll be soon…"
Elsa stops struggling and wonders what he's going to do to her. Is he going to torture her, to kill her? She'd rather be tortured herself than see Jack getting hurt.
The though of Jack gives her strength. Maybe he would come for her. But then she shakes her head. No! He can't come, Pitch would only hurt him, and that is something she could never forgive herself for. If she was the reason to Jack's pain, maybe even to his death...
"You'll never get away with this!" she shouts at the man. She tries to look strong, sure of herself, but it doesn't work, since the man seems to be able to smell fear. He knows that she's terrified of what he might do to her beloved Jack...
Pitch raises his hand, and the dark snowflakes swirl around his palm. Then he smiles at her. She can see her own powers turning into to black sand. Elsa is weak and cold. She can't do this. She can't die without saying goodbye to Jack. The last thing she can do before she falls down in the darkness is to send a thought to him.
"I love you..."
Fluff... Yeah... She really loves him! She's ready to die for him! I hope you liked it.
