Elsa crept up to the wreckage of her family's private jet. She crouched down before coming around the corner of the severed end of the plane. Peering inside, Elsa felt a nervous sensation in he stomach. As if she had set foot back into the elephant Graveyard. Hesitantly, she crept inside the plane.
Elsa glanced around the inside as she crawled through the plane. Lush green moss and foliage covered over the burnt metal. Most of the seats were torn or burned from the fire long ago. And the windows were all smashed opened. With several vines and branches were poking inside the plane.
Elsa then glanced forward toward the back of the plane. Suddenly she then paused. Peering sullenly to the seats in the far back. The same place where she and her parents were siting the night their plane had went down over the jungle.
As she continued to stare, she suddenly heard the voices of her parents from that night long ago. As flashes before her eyes. She could hear her mother's voice calling her name.
Memories flashback
"Elsa, hold on to me!" Her mother exclaimed, taking her into her arms.
The inside of the pane was shuttering as it too a downward spiral. Elsa turned and glanced back to her father, who sat across from them. He bowed his head, narrowing his eyes. Glancing down at the beg on his lap. He gripped the strap in contempt at what he had done. For placing his family in danger. He then looked up to her and her mother, peering sullenly to them.
"I'm sorry." He said to them.
Elsa stared up at her father at the final words he would ever say to her and her mother. For long those words had lingered in her mind, wondering why he was apologizing for. Did if have something to do with the beg he had? That conversation he and mama had back home?
"Elsa?"
Elsa opened her eyes, waking from the nightmare of that night long ago. She glanced back and saw Jack standing behind her. He turned, peering around the inside of the plane wreckage.
"This is..." he said, looking back down at her.
"This was your family's plane, wasn't it?"
Elsa narrowed her head.
"This is where you guys went down." He continued.
She nodded her head to Jack, conforming his suspicions.
"Elsa's family came to jungle," Elsa explained to him
"Then great storm come. Mama and papa..."
Elsa the glanced down, frowning sullenly. Jack narrowed his eyes, knowing well of what she was referring to and what happened to them.
"I'm... I'm sorry, Elsa." he said, glancing to her.
Elsa he then turned and glanced forward to the back of the plane. She squinted her eyes, thinking back to the final words which she heard him say the night they crashed.
The beg he had. Did that have something to do with it? Why he was always working so much?
She scurried over to the seats. She narrowed her head, glancing under what remained of the her father's seat. But it wasn't there. She then stood up and looked along the dirt covered floor, pawing and digging at the soil and plants. Jack came up to Elsa, glancing down curiously at the wild woman.
"Elsa, what are you doing?" he asked, curiously.
Elsa continued to paw at the dirt, scrapping it away until she uncovered a light brown leathery surface. Elsa then paused, peering curiously down at the thing in question. She continued to swipe away the dirt, wiping it aside as she uncovered the objected buried beneath the dirt and foliage. As she continued to dig, she then uncovered several white words stitched over the leathery surface.
Elsa peered down at the words.
PR. ADGAR
Elsa widened her eyes. She remembered father's beg had his name stitched across the front.
"Papa..." She said.
She continued to dig before uncover the burnt strap. She grabbed hold of the strapped and pulled it out of the dirt. She held up the beg.
Elsa gasped. She had found it. Her father's beg from long ago when the plane had crashed.
Jack came up to her, peering down at the bag she was holding. He then widened his eyes, seeing Adgar's name over the front.
"Oh my god...!" He said to himself.
Jack came up, kneeing down next to her. He took the bag from Elsa, who glanced to him, curiously. Jack was gazing down at the beg in awe, shaking his head.
"I can't believe it," he said to himself in a faint whispering tone.
"Professor Adgar?"
Elsa squinted her eyes up at Jack, curiously.
"Ad-gar..." she said.
Jack turned to her, nodding his head.
"He was a Professor at my university," Jack said to her.
"He went missing looking for a herb that he thought could be a cure."
Herb? Could that be the one Jack was talking about before?
"Herb Jack looking for?" She asked, curiously.
"Yes," he insisted to her.
Jack glanced down at the bag. It looked a bit curled with several burn marks along the straps. He reached up and pulled over the cover before looking inside the bag. Only to find a glass container and a laptop.
Jack reached it and pulled out the laptop. It looked melted and burnt. He lifted it opened, only to find the screen was smashed in and each side was burnt. The Hard drive was probably fried as well. Which meant whatever findings he might have made on the herb was lost in the fire.
Jack sighed.
"Well, this things toast." He said, tossing the laptop down over the ground.
He glanced back down into the bag to the small glass container. He reached in and pulled it out of the bag. Much of the surface had scorch marks, but he could clearly make out the same, dry withered plant inside. Jack And Elsa glanced up at the glass container.
"This is it," Jack insisted, glancing to Elsa.
"The herb!"
Elsa came up and took the herb from Jack. She gazed into the glass container at the now dry, brittle plant which laid in pieces inside. This was inside his bag the whole time. Something which was so sacred to the jungle.
Elsa stared in contempt. After all this years since that very night, she had now realized the very truth. Her own father had been stealing from the jungle for so long. Taking more then he could ever give back. Breaking the jungle's ancient law.
And now he and mother payed the price for it.
For the jungle had taken more back from him. Righting the wrong of which her father had committed.
Elsa dropped the glass container, the plant inside shattering like glass. She bowed her head in awe of the shook her head before turning and storming out of the plane. Jack turned to her.
"Elsa?" He called to her.
She came out of the plane where she stood up and came up to a nearby tree. She leaned up against the tree. desperately holding back her tears. Jack came out of the plane behind her.
"Elsa?" He said, as she came came up behind her.
Jack placed his hand over his shoulder. Elsa turned to him before embracing her betrothed mate in her arms. Jack in turn held her tightly against his chest, hearing her sobbing.
"Father stole." She then said.
Jack glanced down to her.
"What?" he asked, curiously.
"Father stole from Jungle," she said, again.
"Broke jungle law."
"Father-"
Jack glanced to the side as he pondered. She had just said father. Could she be referring to...
"Wait..." he said as he thought.
Suddenly the realization came to him. They had just found Adgar's bag in the plane and the two bodies. They were Adgar and his wife. This was where Adgar's plane went down. And could only mean that she was...
Jack widened his eyes, gasping.
"Your... your Adgar's daughter?!" he said, looking back down at her.
Elsa glanced to side, narrowing her head. Her sullen gesture all but confirmed Jack's suspicion, leaving him in awe.
"Oh my god." Jack said, shaking his head in disbelief.
Elsa glanced up, gazing to the wreckage of her family's plane. The amends of her father's crimes against the jungle and it's people, though as heartbreaking to her as it was. For the first time she understood all that had happened long ago. Overhearing her parents those many years ago, talking in his office. Her father wanting to give the life she and mother deserved.
By stealing from the jungle and taking what was never meant to be taken. And so the Jungle took from him. Taking from him what mattered more then anything...
Her.
"The jungle took me." she said.
Jack glanced to Elsa, curiously.
"What?" He asked.
"Father stole from the Jungle," she said, again.
"So jungle decided to take back. Father took sacred herb. So Jungle took me."
Jack only squinting his eyes confusingly at what she had said. Elsa came up over to the plane's wreckage.
"Father was always working." She continued to explain to Jack.
"Sometimes he would be away for days. He never wanted Elsa to leave home. So Elsa stayed in room. Elsa never saw anyone other then mama and papa."
Jack narrowed his eyes.
"Why would her do that to you?" He said, glancing up to her.
Elsa frowned, sighing.
"Father said that we were in danger," She continued.
"That until he finished work, we would only be safe in our home. Father Said he give Elsa and mother life we always deserved."
Jack gasped and glanced to her. Hearing her say same thing he had told Anna and his family before coming on this expedition. The promise he made them was the one Elsa's own father made to her. And now here he was. Crashed deep in the jungle with all his findings lost forever. All but to pay for braking a law which he didn't know.
A law of which he would have broken as well. And what price would he pay? Anna? Jamie? His family?
Jack turned away, narrowing his head.
"Oh, God." he said, whispering to himself.
He then glanced up at Elsa.
"How- how did you-?" He asked.
Elsa glanced to him, knowing what he was trying to ask her.
"Diata found me." She insisted to him.
"Diata?" He asked, curiously
Jack pondered for a moment. He thought back to the night they had first met. The white lioness who found them under the tree. She remembered Elsa saying that she was her mother. Could that be who she was referring to?
"Wasn't she your...?" He asked, squinting his eyes, curiously.
Elsa nodded her head.
"She is my mother." She insisted, glancing to Jack.
"She's the one who brought me into the pride. Where Bagheera and Rafiki spoke for me at the Council that brought me into the jungle."
"That's uh...neat" Jack said, glancing to the side.
Elsa nodded her head.
"It was," she insisted to him.
"For the first time in my life, I felt free. I didn't have to be afraid anymore. I had a family again."
Elsa glanced to the side, thinking of her mother and the rest of the pride. Glancing back to the wreckage, she thought about all that they had done for her. How they cared for her like she was one of their own. Giving all that her first family could not. Though that only made the guilt for leaving them all the more greater.
But even still, she knew she had to stay away from them. She couldn't risk endangering them with the presence of man.
Jack came up to her, rubbing the back of his neck. It was hard to believe Adgar would do something like that. Let alone his own daughter. Hearing all that she had gone through, it all but reminded him of what happened to his own family. How it broke apart the same way as hers, only for them to find another.
"I'm sorry, Elsa," he said to her.
"I know what it's like. I lost my family as well."
Elsa glanced back to Jack in awe.
"You lost your family?" Jack asked, curiously.
"Oh, no, not like how your thinking," Jack insisted to her.
"Our family ran into trouble after dad lost his job and he thought he could handle it."
Jack sighed. He turned walking over to one of the trees nearby and sat up against it. He narrowed his head.
"He refused to accept any help from mom or anybody." Jack continued to say, glancing up at Elsa.
"It got so bad that mom and him clashed so hard one day and they ended up getting a divorce. We ended up moving away to San-Francisco."
Elsa glanced to him, curiously.
"Divorced?" She asked, curiously.
"It means when a couple breaks up," He explained to her.
"They go their separate ways and find new partners."
"Find a new mate?" Elsa asked, curiously.
Jack nodded his head.
"Pretty much." He said.
Elsa glanced to the side, frowning. Hearing what had happened to Jack's family had fallen apart because of his father's pride. Much like her own had. She looked up at Jack and came up to where he was sitting. She kneeled down next to Jack, and came up under his arm. She lean in her head, nuzzling his chest as she attempted to comfort her mate.
Jack glanced down at Elsa, lifting up his arm. He saw her curled up next to him, rubbing against him like a cat. While the concept of personal space seemed to be foreign to her, Jack would be lying if he said she wasn't a bit cute. Seeing her cuddle him in such a way, nuzzling him, he couldn't help but smile and chuckle at her.
He slowly lowered his arm and placed it around her, holding her close. Elsa in turned smiled and glanced up at him. Jack smiled back, before turning and leaning his head back against the tree. He sighed.
He could only imagine what Anna, kristoff and Tadashi if they saw him and Elsa right now. Last week they were pestering him about getting a girlfriend. Though he had to admit, he didn't expect her to be a wild, feral, vine-swinging jungle women dressed in animal skins. But even now, he was starting to have feelings for her as she had for him.
Theses passed two days with her had been amazing. Everything about her. How she rescued him from that leopard. The way she sees the jungle. Her climbing skills were also something to be admired and the fact she could talk and understand animals. It was amazing.
She was amazing.
"You know, I got to admit," He said to her.
"I thought I came all this way for some medicine plant."
The very mention of the herb caused her heart to sink. She narrowed her gaze, fearing that Jack follow in her father's footsteps.
Yet was then surprised when she heard him again.
"But... I think I ended up finding something more."
Elsa then glanced back up at Jack, staring in awe at the anticipation of his words. And as she saw saw his smiling gaze over her, she knew right away of what he was referring to. Elsa felt her heart flutter. Realizing that she had now earned the affection of her betrothed mate.
Slowly Elsa and Jack stood up from off the ground. She felt his hands embracing each of her naked side, stroking her. She stared up into the icy blue eyes of her betrothed mate, lovingly. The very moment of which she had desired had come at last. Casting away any doubts and guilt she had once had.
She then lowered her hands and took hold of his. she then turned and pulled him along into the jungle.
Elsa was running through the foliage, chuckling, brushing through the leaves and palms. Ducking under a large palm leaf Jack raised it up over his head.
"Elsa?" he called out to her.
Elsa then stopped, glancing back at Jack, chuckling. She then turned and continued running through the foliage, wanting Jack to follow her. Jack smirked and chased after her. Brushing away the foliage, he chased after the wild woman who glanced back to him as she continued to lead him along.
He came up behind up and reached out and playfully tried grabbing her. Upon feeling his touch over her shoulder, Elsa quickly turned around to face him, laughing. Jack leaped forward in attempt to catch her, only for her to leap back each time.
She then turned and continued running through the jungle. She then came out of the foliage and found herself along the banks of a waterfall. She came up over one the rocks, making her way up to the fallen currents. She then looked back along the shore, and saw Jack appear from the foliage.
Jack came up along the banks. He gazed to Elsa, seeing her standing before the falling currents.
She gazed back at him with the same seductive expression she used back at the lagoon. Urging him to follow her before passing behind the falling currents of the waterfall. Jack smirked. He came up over the path of rocks, hoping to one after another as he came up to the falling currents. He came around the falling currents and then paused upon peering inside.
Elsa laying over a large rock. She was staring up at him with that same alluring expression, leaning over her right side with her long smooth legs curled up over each other. There was a look of awe over Jack face as he peered down at her. Once more was he memorized by her beauty.
Her long icy blonde hair, those crystal winter blue eyes glancing half openly in such a seductive way. Those supple and firm breasts viable from that animal skin top she wore and that lean and yet fit stomach. The loincloth which hung from her bare hips, hanging between her legs. And those legs which were so long and smooth.
Jack could feel his heart beating so hard in his chest. He knew it had only been two days. He had only just met her. But none of that mattered anymore.
He then saw Elsa stood up from the rock. she reached up and grabbed Jack's hand pulling him down onto the rock. Jack sat down before her as she came up over her knees, placing her hands over his shoulders. She then began to kiss and nuzzling his forehead. Jack raised his hands and placed them firmly over her bear hips, stroking her.
Elsa groaned and purred at his touch, nuzzling Jack's head. It was then that Jack brought her down to his eye level. And then kissed her.
