I hope you guys are ready for this chapter. I have too much fun tapping into my dark side sometimes XD And funny tidbit. I got stuck until I sneezed when I typed that Elsa sneezed, then the rest just flowed out. Idk, I just thought it was funny to sneeze as I typed the word sneeze

TW: flashbacks, panic attacks, forced co-hosting, heights

Elsa woke in her room in her mothers house. She stretched and yawned, a migraine pulsating just behind her eyelids. She sat up, vertigo and nausea slamming into her body. When was the last time she was here? Elsa sneezed as she tried to remember. The more she tried to remember, the worse the migraine became so she gave up and got out of bed. With a huge yawn, she walked to the closet to get dressed. A bizarre assortment of clothes greeted her. There were dark gowns, bright sun dresses, hoodies and jeans, sexy clothes and modest clothes. Elsa could guess the sexy clothes were Nassiri's, the dark things were Kiri's and the bright garments were Anna's. But from there she was clueless. She grabbed a green top with sleeves to her elbows, a pair of blue jeans, and a black zip up hoodie. From the bottom of the closet Elsa decided on a modest pair of heels. It would complement the outfit without over doing it. She went to the bathroom and brushed her hair and teeth, putting on deodorant before going into the living room. Her mom was in the kitchen, going over papers and running her hand through her hair. Elsa frowned, noticing a thin streak of silver hair shining in her moms mahogany hair. How much stress had she been under lately? And Elsa's problems only added to it. 'She doesn't deserve this,' Elsa reflected as she sat on the couch. Guilt settled into her heart as she slouched back. 'It's my fault. If I had just kept myself and my powers under control my parents would be together and my mom wouldn't be so stressed.' Elsa sighed and folded her hands on her lap.

"Elsa?"

"Yeah?"

"Oh good, you're back. How are you feeling?" Diane sat by her daughter.

"I honestly feel bad. If it weren't for me and my problems, our lives wouldn't suck so much."

Diane frowned, wrapping her arms around her daughter. "Sweetie, don't say that. There's a lot that could have been done differently but it's in the past. We can't let the memories of yesterday stain the possibility of today and tomorrow." When Elsa just sighed, Diane continued. "Nothing is your fault baby girl. And don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise-not even yourself."

"I'll keep that in mind. Do I have to go to school today?"

"I'm afraid so sweetie. You have some exams today."

"Can't you just call me in sick and write to take them or something?"

Diane shook her head. "I wish I could but this is the preparatory exam for the finals. You need to be there, it can't be made up another day."

Elsa sighed and rubbed her eyes. "Alright. I'll just grin and bare it I guess." She looked around, seeing her backpack by the door.

'I got your homework done for you, Elsa. Don't worry about that.'

'Thanks Kiri.' That was one less worry on Elsa's part. Kiri was such a good person to look out for her like that. She gathered her things and waited in silence until her mom called her to take her to school. She was silent on the way home, listening to the conversation between Kiri and Astra.

'Are you sure she cannot escape?'

'I took the keys with me when I left. Unless she's willing to hurt herself to escape, Nassiri isn't going anywhere.'

'Good. We cannot have the vile woman out in the open. She caused far too much damage. As it is, Arcy is starting to come out of her shell more.'

'I can't understand why she chose Arcy to torment over the others.'

'Nor can I but what matters now is that everyone is safe.'

'If Nassiri somehow manages to escape, I'll lay my life down to keep everyone safe.'

'You and I both.'

Kiri was willing to risk her life to keep everyone safe? It panged Elsa a little to hear that. She didn't want to lose Kiri. She was closest to Kiri out of everyone. Before she knew it, her mom had stopped outside of the school. Had the drive been fast or was Elsa just that out of it while listening to the adults? Elsa shook herself, put on her backpack and got out of the car.

"Do you remember where your classes are?" Diane called from the drivers seat.

"Yeah, I'll be fine."

"Ok honey. Just ask to call me if you need anything."

'I can't have the one thing I think I need,' Elsa thought as she waved her mom off. She took a deep breath and turned to face the building. She made her way inside to her locker when a hand slammed down by her head. A sense of dread coursed through her body alongside her blood.

"Well well, well, Snow freak."

Her heart rate picked up and she felt panic. She swallowed her fear and faced him. "Yes, Hans?"

"I haven't forgotten about our night together. I hope you haven't."

Elsa sighed. "I try to."

"Why? It was wonderful." He moved his hand and traced his fingers down her cheek.

The touch sent her blood cold through her veins. Her pupils dilated, flashes of memory playing before her eyes. Words lingered in between them. Screams, struggling, panic and desperation to escape. "No!...isn't….want… Please!...Hurts…." Pain seared Elsa form between her legs and she fell to the floor. Her breath came in short spurts, her heart beat racing as if she had run non-stop for miles. Sweat pooled on every inch of her skin. Elsa wrapped her arms around herself. "No, no, no. Please, don't. I don't want this." She shut her eyes tight, only to see his face inches from hers. The pain intensified and she crouched over her legs. "Oh god, the pain…." She barely opened an eye to look at herself, only to see blood pooling out from under her. "Oh god…blood…b-blood…the blood…No…I….I can't…"

Hans took a few steps back, thoroughly confused by how she was acting. "Hey are you alright? Are you getting your period or something?" He went to reach for her but when Elsa saw his hand approach she flung her hand out, a small bit of ice hitting him in his stomach. He fell back, coughing. "Okay, okay. I get it. I'll go." He got to his feet, caught his breath and left Elsa.

'Elsa, Elsa calm down! It's alright!' Astra's voice soothed some of the misfiring emotions.

'The pain…the blood…the fear…'

'It's okay my child. Precious Snowflake, you can overcome this. I believe in you.'

'So do I. You're a strong girl. You can do this,' Kiri joined in the encouragement.

'Y-you guys…are right. I, I can do this. Just take deep breaths right?' Elsa focused her breathing and thoughts on calming down. Her heart slowly calmed itself and the images and words faded. She stood and kept her eyes on the floor, not making eye contact with anyone who had gathered to watch her. She held her chin high and returned to getting her books. The bell rang and Elsa was possibly the fastest person in the hallway.

Nassiri had seen and felt everything from her cell. She grinned sinisterly, loving how all the panic and pain had fed her own mind. "If that's how easy it is to screw with this kid, then escaping this hell will be easy." She turned to the bars and took a deep breath. Nassiri back up as far as she could and began ramming into the bars. She flung her full weight into the time and time again. After a good thirty minutes, Nassiri was covered in bruises but the bars had loosened enough for her to slip through. Nassiri grinned and began her way to the inside of the castle. She could easily find something to pick the locks on her restraints. After scouring the inside, she found a slim enough knife and began picking her locks. After a few minutes, she had completely freed herself. With a fanged grin, Nassiri made her way to the void. "Time to make their lives the worst nightmare they could think of."

Elsa sat in class, it was world history. So far, the rest of the day had gone by without incident. It was a nice surprise. She winced as a blinding migraine suddenly pounded in her skull. Her legs began moving on their own, making her stand. Even when the teacher asked where she was going, Elsa's voice wouldn't speak like she wanted it to. She found herself being walked out of the school and across the west side, where a busy interaction with only two stop signs was located. 'What? Why am I going here? Why am I moving at all? God this headache is blinding.'

Her feet kept moving, taking her passed the intersection (luckily) unharmed. Elsa could see a bridge in the distance. Fear filled her blood and chased her heart. 'No. Don't tell me I'm going there.' All too soon Elsa found herself standing over the edge of the bridge. She was shaking violently as she was forced to look down over the 30 foot drop into busy traffic. A few cars had pulled over, the drivers on their phones. Surely one of them would call someone to help get Elsa down safely.

'Let's have some fun.'

Nassiri's cold voice filled Elsa with panic. 'H-how…W-why….'

'Because I can.'

Elsa gulped, tears now streaming down her face. "Please, don't. I don't want to die."

"I don't give two dead rat asses what you want. Haven't you learned that?" Elsa's feet inched closer over the edge. "Do you think a fall from this height would kill you or just leave you paralyzed for life?"

"It would kill me!"

"Oh goody, let's do it then!"

"No! Please! Whatever you want, you can have it! Just don't kill me, please!"

"Hmmm…Anything?"

"Yes, anything."

Nassiri paused on that thought. "Nah, you have nothing to offer me."

"What, what about freedom? I can let you out of that cell."

Nassiri's musically cold laugh chilled Elsa's blood. "How do you think I'm doing this? I escaped."

"N….no….." Her thoughts jumbled together as the sights and sounds of the world started spinning around faster than she could focus. Nassiri was free? Hadn't Kiri said she wouldn't escape? Had Kiri lied? Was Astra in on it? But why would they lie? They wouldn't. 'They don't know….' The realization crashed into Elsa so hard she took a step back. 'Oh god….I'm, I'm dead…' Elsa gulped, a huge lump settling in her throat.

Nassiri only laughed. She forced Elsa forward one step over and let her grab onto the ledge of the bridge for dear life. 'How long can you hold on?'

The traffic below was now jammed as motorists stopped their cars and all began dialing in the emergency. Elsa was terrified. She dug her hands into the cement as much as she could, her finger tips thinning under the pressure. Her life flashed before her eyes. Not all of it good. Another memory flooded into her mind, making her lose a little bit of grip.

**Elsa was lying in bed and her father came rushing in. He picked her up and took her to the basement. Once again she was strapped to the table, the sickeningly sweet familiar smell of frankincense and sage overwhelming her nose. Ian began murmuring in another language, holding something small and glowing red in his hand. He lifted her top and pressed the object against her skin, a searing burn sending excruciating pain through Elsa's body. She shrieked only for Ian's other hand to throw wine into it. The taste was horrid and made her want to vomit. The pain and alcohol combined with the incense were too much and she did vomit. Ian pressed the object against her harder, now chanting in the same strange language. Tears streamed down Elsa's face as she felt her skin blister from the heat. Everything went fuzzy and then dark.**

Elsa, still hanging onto the bridge, felt the pain and dizziness of the memory. That memory faded into another of elementary school kids beating her with rocks and sticks, calling her Snowfreak. Overcome with emotions and extreme pain, her grip loosened. Elsa felt like she was falling into a never ending gap of space as her fingers slipped from the bridge. Nassiri's laugh the only sound that fell with her.

Oh! Cliffhanger! What happens next?! You'll just have to find out in chapter 6 X3 Hope this chapter was good, and that my writing is getting better. Thanks for reading/faving/following!
