Chapter 4
As the sleigh made its way out of Arendelle, Elsa tried her best not to look at the vampire sitting across from her. That thing with the heads was disgusting and horrifying. What kind of creature would do such a thing?
On the other side, Jack was very aware of how uncomfortable Elsa was and was trying to think of something to say so she wouldn't be scared of him. As they passed by the tallest mountain Elsa looked up at the top to see her ice palace, which caught Jack's attention too.
"Beautiful."
Elsa gave him a confused look.
"The palace." Jack explained.
"Oh… thanks."
"How long did that take you to build?" Jack asked.
Elsa shrugged, "Three minutes, maybe."
"That's amazing." Jack said enthusiastically.
Elsa started to smile, "That was the first time I ever felt free. I was so happy to finally get away from my father."
Jack nodded, "I got a vibe that he didn't seem to approve of your powers."
Elsa shook her head, "No. He forced me to keep it hidden and would punish me if I ever used them, usually by locking me in the tower for a day."
Jack gave her a sad look as she continued.
"He never said it directly but… I knew that he thought I was…"
"A monster?" Jack finished.
Elsa looked up at him with a shocked look, "Exactly."
"I know all about disapproving parents. Though mine have been dead for a long time."
Elsa started to take more of an interest in him now, "How old are you?"
Jack looked up in thought and shrugged, "300 years, give or take a few."
"Wow. That's… kind of interesting." Elsa said, honestly.
Jack shrugged, "I remember when the musket was invented. Everyone went nuts. But there were a lot of accidents because no one knew how to use it properly."
Elsa covered her mouth and laughed.
"You have an interesting sense of humor." Jack said.
Elsa shrugged, not knowing what to say to that.
"Comrade Jack…" The driver interrupted.
"Yes North?" he answered.
"We are far enough away, shall I use powers now?"
"Yes, please." Jack said before turning back to Elsa.
"He has powers too?" She asked.
"All vampires do. His is actually really cool. Watch."
Elsa looked at the driver as he whipped the reindeer once more and all of a sudden they were flying. Elsa lost her balance as the sleigh shook and fell onto Jack's lap with her face in his chest. She looked up at him with a red face before moving back to her seat.
"Sorry." She said.
"Don't be." Jack said, smirking.
Elsa looked over the side of the sleigh and couldn't help but smile. They were so high up and moving so fast.
"Cool huh?" Jack asked confidently.
"So cool!" Elsa responded.
At the speed they were going, they made it to Jack's castle in almost no time at all. North brought the sleigh down as gently as he could at the entrance.
The castle was huge. It had three high towers and looked like it could house Elsa's entire village back home. It was also a bit intimidating, along the towers and walls were large statues of different looking dragons.
Jack exited the sleigh with Elsa's luggage before helping her out.
"Welcome to my home." He said
