A/N: Hey guys, I'm back! Well my midterms will continue onto next week, because of the typhoon, my classes have been suspended this week. Anyway, this story is really coming off as a mystery and like any good mystery I won't reveal anything. I'll let you guys keep guessing what's going on.

Well enough talk, here's the story!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Several minutes later, Jack finally arrived home. He opened the car door, a cake in one hand, while the doll is in the other. He makes his way to the front door and let out a sigh of frustration, he placed the doll on top of the cake box for a while, hoping it wouldn't ruin the inside as he fished the house keys in his pocket.

He would always tell Jamie and Pippa to lock the door when they're alone in the house and to not open it to just anyone. It's just to ensure their safety because you have to admit; it's not very safe in our society today.

With great difficulty involving several keys and trying them out one by one, he let out a sigh of relief when the door finally unlocked. As he went inside, he was then greeted by Sophie running towards him who hugs his legs.

"Welcome home, big brother!" She said with a big smile on her face.

Jack smiled at her, patting her head with his free hand. Then he heard frantic running and yelling coming from upstairs.

"Sophie, where are you?! You can come out now, you know!" He heard Pippa with a panicked tone on her voice. She stopped running near the railings on the stairs when she saw him. "Jack have you seen-"she then looked at the little girl hugging their brother's leg, her eyes showed both relief and frustration as she made her way down the stairs.

Walking towards them; Pippa's face is in a frown, "Sophie I told you we can only play hide and seek upstairs." Sophie just looked at her with a pouty look. "I was upstairs…, but I heard a car. So, I went downstairs to look out the window and I saw Jack…" her big eyes had that look that would make anyone melt.

Pippa's eyes softened at the look, but tried her best to mask it. "Still at least tell me if you want to stop the game. You had me worried there for a second; I mean do you remember what happened last time?" She said, crossing her arms.

Last year when they played hide and seek in the backyard. It was Pippa's turn to seek, while it was Sophie's turn to hide. Hours passed, Pippa became panicked and worried looking everywhere for Sophie. It turns out she took the game too seriously and hid in the neighbour's house. That's why they play the game only in the house, in case Sophie goes somewhere that's more dangerous.

"I'm sorry… '' Sophie said with her head down, feeling guilty for making her sister worry.

Pippa smiled at her, then hugged her, "It's okay, just don't do it again." She lets go and looks at Jack.

"Hi Jack, welcome home!" She said smiling at him and hugged him by the waist.

"Hey Pippa, where's Jamie?" Jack asked

"He's in the kitchen setting up the table."

"Oh, can I get a little help here?" He said directing his gaze to Sophie, who was still hugging his legs.

She laughed as she tried to pry Sophie away from his legs. It was tough because Sophie didn't want to let go, then she thought of an idea, "Hey Sophie, how about we play tag." Sophie's eyes lit up and she immediately lets go "Ok, you're it!" she ran out of the room giggling, While Pippa chased after her.

Jack walked into the living room placing the doll on the sofa and made his way to the kitchen wherein he saw Jamie setting up the table. He carefully placed the cake on the table. Jamie looked at him and smiled, "Hey Jack, you're home late." Jack shrugged his shoulders as he helped Jamie. "Yeah sorry, I went to buy the cake and Sophie's gift; I got stuck in traffic on the way home."

"So buddy, what's on the menu?"

"Spaghetti and meatballs."

"Sounds great, I'm starving." After setting up the table he called out Pippa and Sophie. They ran into the room, laughing.

As they ate Jack started a conversation, "So anything interesting happen today?"

"Not really just the same old boring day." Jamie said, eating a forkful of spaghetti.

"Why? Emily didn't come and say hi to you?" Pippa teasingly said to him. He almost choked on his food; he glared at her while coughing and thumping on his chest. "No we talked, but this doesn't include her."

They all knew about Jamie's crush on Emily his best friend since childhood. (A/N: I just changed the name of his friend in the movie, also if you're confused Pippa is Jack's sister in the movie.) They love to tease him about it, but he would always deny he has any feelings for her.

"Stop teasing, she's just a friend." He said a blush evident on his face. "Suuure, she is." Pippa said with a smirk.

They continued to bicker, until Jack stopped them, "That's enough, I told you two no arguing on the table." Both stopped and continued to eat dinner while glaring at each other.

Jack turned to Sophie and asked her, "How was your day, Sophie?"

"It was fun! I learned a lot today at school and then we went to the arcade and played a lot of games. Jamie and Pippa even won me a prize!" She exclaimed, obviously happy how her day worked out. "That's great, Soph." He said as he wiped her face clean, she was always a messy eater.

"What about you Jack, how was your day?" Pippa asked him.

He drank from his glass of water and looked at her, "Oh you know, the same as always."

"Is that woman bothering you again?" Jamie asked, with his eyebrows raised.

"If you're talking about Amy, Yeah, but don't worry, you know I always decline her advances," Jack reassured them. Sophie pouted her face and crossed her arms, "I don't like her she's scary." Jack chuckled when he heard that, "Don't worry Soph, she's only a co-worker nothing else."

A few months ago when Sophie had no classes for the day, he brought her to work because Jamie and Pippa were at school and he couldn't just leave her alone in the house with no one to take care of her. When Amy saw her, she thought this was an opportunity to get on Jack's good side. So, she tried to be extra nice to Sophie but it only ended up scaring the little girl.

"You know you can just tell her to leave you alone." Pippa said looking at Jack.

He rubbed his temples, "I wish it was that easy. You don't know how many times I tried to avoid her and tell her off. She just keeps coming back."

Jaime rubbed Jack's back and said, "Don't worry Big bro; I'm sure she'll leave you alone. eventually….."

"Thanks for the reassurance Jamie." Jack said sarcastically.

After they finished eating dinner, they washed the dishes and played a few games. Until finally it was time to open up the presents.

They were all in the living room sitting on the sofa; Sophie was practically jumping from joy after celebrating her birthday with her family.

"Okay Sophie it's time to open up some presents." Jack said trying to calm her down, but it only got her more excited.

"Ooh, me first!" Pippa said, as she rummaged through her bag. "Here you go, Happy Birthday Sophie." She gave her a small box.

Sophie tore through the wrapping paper and smiled at Pippa. The box contained a pink bead bracelet with a heart in the middle.

"Thank you Pippa!" She said hugging her.

"Okay my turn, Happy Birthday Sophie!" Jamie said holding a gift bag in front of her.

She opened the bag and saw a stuffed bunny toy, "Bunny, Hop Hop!" She said happily as she hugged the toy. She would always say that whenever she sees a bunny. "Thank you Jamie!" he just smiled at her and ruffled her hair.

"Well I guess it's my turn now" Jack said as he took the paper bag from the other side of the couch and gave it to her, "Happy Birthday Sophie! Sorry I didn't have time to wrap it."

She took the paper bag, opened it and took the box out. She gasped when she saw the doll inside, "She's beautiful..., Thank you Jack!" She looked at him with a grin. Jack just smiled at her expression.

Sophie opened the box and took the doll out; not noticing the piece of paper that fell out.

She examined the doll and tried talking to her, "Hi my name's Sophie, I'm sure we'll be great friends."

Jamie and Pippa felt a weird chill when Sophie took the doll out of the box.

"Hey Jack, where did you buy this?" Pippa asked

"I bought it from an antique shop that just opened, why?" He replied

"Is it normal for that thing to be cold? I mean it's like it has a built-in air conditioner with it." Jamie said crossing his arms.

"That's what I felt too, but I'm pretty sure it's normal."

Their conversation was interrupted when Sophie suddenly spoke, "Elsa, is that your name?"

They turned their heads at her, seeing her holding a piece of paper. She then smiled at the doll, "It's nice to meet you Elsa!"

"Sophie what do you have there?" Jack asked inching closer to her.

"I saw a piece of paper on the floor; it had words in it. Look" She said as she gave the paper to Jack.

He took the piece of paper and looked at it, the name Elsa was written on it.

"Hey look there's more in the back." Jamie pointed out to him.

He turned the paper around and saw more words written on it.

"Hey Jack, why don't you read what it says to us." Pippa said out of curiosity.

"Okay, then." Clearing his throat, he read the words out loud:

A curse she be broken by moonlight tonight,

To a snowflake as delicate and light,

Be wary of what lies ahead,

For what the future brings maybe nothing but dread.

Their faces scrunched up in confusion with what was written on the paper.

"What do you think it means?" Jamie asked

"Do you think something bad will happen?" Pippa asked fear can be heard in her voice.

"I'm pretty sure it's nothing, must be Manny trying to scare me." Jack reassured them.

"Who's that?"

"He's the one who gave me the doll; I'll have to ask him about this tomorrow."

Then they heard a yawn coming from Sophie, he looked at the time it was almost 10 o'clock, "Well it's time for bed, you guys have school tomorrow." He said while fixing the mess that was in the living room.

"But I'm not tired..." Sophie said while rubbing her eyes.

"Come on Sophie time to get you to bed." He said as he carried her. He went upstairs with Jamie and Pippa following behind.

Jamie went to his room and called out before closing the door, "Goodnight, guys!"

Jack went to Pippa's room, she crawled to her bed and he tucked her in. Jack can see that she's still scared about what the paper said. "Don't worry Pippa I'm sure it's nothing bad."

"But what if there is something?"

"I'm sure it's nothing, now go to sleep." Jack said as he kissed her forehead, he walked to the door and switched off the lights. "Goodnight, Pippa."

He carried Sophie to her room and placed her on her bed, she held tightly onto the doll and the bunny. Jack kissed her forehead and tucked her to bed. "Goodnight, Sophie"

"Can you say goodnight to Elsa and Bunny too?" She said with droopy eyes.

He smiled at her, just to humour her he said goodnight to her toys, "Okay then, Goodnight Bunny and Elsa."

He turned on her nightlight, switched off the lights and went out the door.

He walked directly into his room and shut the door. He grabbed black boxers and blue night pants from his drawer laying them on the bed. He grabbed his towel and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

After a few minutes in the bathroom, he got out, slipped on his nightwear and lay on the bed pulling the covers up to his chest.

As he lay on his bed, he couldn't help but think of the strange events that happened today from the antique shop, the doll that was given to him, to the eerie message that he read, "I wonder what it meant..."

"Maybe I'm just overthinking about it, I'm sure it's nothing..." He thought as he turned to his side and drifted off to sleep.

Later that night…

The neighbourhood of Burgess, Pennsylvania tonight is very quiet. Dogs are barking at every corner, the wind is howling, rustling the trees as they passed, the moon shining big and bright over its inhabitants, lighting every corner of the streets.

In the Frost household, everything is quiet save for a few snoring sounds that can be heard in some of the rooms. In one particular room namely Sophie's room the moonlight shone brightly, through her window directing its light onto a specific target, the doll she is holding in her arms.

By the moonlight's effects, the doll was enveloped by a strange white light accompanied by a strong cool wind; the image seems to grow every passing second.

Early in the morning, Jack woke up the same way he does every day, he sat up on the edge of his bed, stretching his arms, his eyes still droopy from the lack of sleep, "I'm still tired…maybe I shouldn't have thought so much yesterday." He stood up from the bed yawning and ruffling his hair. He took a white T-shirt from his drawer and wore it over his head; he went out of his room then made his way down the stairs. Halfway through the stairs he heard a scream coming from upstairs, his eyes widen at the sound, "That came from Sophie's room!" losing any sign of sleep in his eyes, he sprinted up the stairs and ran to the room at the end of the hallway.

He opened her door, looking everywhere for her. He saw her sitting in one corner of the room, he walked directly to her worry in his eyes as he saw her scared and fearful.

He kneeled in front of her and asked her, "Sophie what's wrong, are you okay?"

She nodded her head, pointing a trembling finger to her bed.

"Someone's on my bed..." She murmured

Jack looked confused for a moment; he stood up, carefully walking towards the bed. Thankfully the nightlight was still on so he could only see a little, his eyes widened when he saw that there was in fact someone on Sophie's bed, but he couldn't see who it was since they were covered with the blanket.

He reached a hand out and slowly removed the covers, he was shocked when he saw a woman was lying on Sophie's bed, "What the... how could she have gotten here, the doors are locked and the windows are shut?!" As he racked his brain on how could this mysterious woman have gotten in here. The woman's eyes slowly fluttered open.

A/N: Well that's the end of that chapter. So, what do you guys think? A bit of a cliffy on the end, right? I'm sure you already know who's on Sophie's bed and that she'll officially make an appearance in the next chapter. Oh and by the way, earlier in the story Sophie was four years old; she just turned five on her birthday. I'll try to update as soon as I can, I'm a bit of a procrastinator, so it maybe a while for me to update chapters. So see you guys soon.
