Hello! Please don't kill me because then... Who is going to write the fic? Well, this is the chapter that everyone has being waiting for: JACK FROST ENTERS TO THE STORY.
SofiadelPilar, I do the same! it's the best way to learn, isn't it?
Sailor Fayth 09, I must confess that at first I didn't know how to resolve the difference timelines between Frozen and ROTG. When I was building the story in my mind I thought to create an OC to be her love interest, but Jack was the right one for her! Then I remembered: xxxHolic and Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles! and that's how the different dimensions came to be possible for Jack and Elsa be in the same timeline.
Katarina Aguilar, I'm glad you liked Tangled references.
Maggie le Fay, Me da mucho gusto que te agrade la historia y mas ver que alguien ¡me escribió en español!
Guests, Thank you very much for your support. Someone guessed right about Linus and Elsa's reunion; To the person who suggested me to made Linus to put his creepy hands on Elsa so Jack will save her: don't worry, that's already planned and Jack will fight for Elsa. And to the person who suggested me to do the chapters shorter: I don't know how to do that! when I'm writing, ideas starts to flow and I can't stop, sorry.
Now to EVERYONE, I have bad news, I'm going to present an exam to get a REAL JOB, so I'll be studying but don't worry I'll write between breaks, just want to tell you that the wait will be longer but I won't stop publishing and to compensate you for that at the end I left a PREVIEW OF CHAPTER 6, which I've wrote the half of it.
English is not my first language. Thanks to infinitely-lost for her contribution.

This fic was inspired on the Disney song "Hellfire".

YOU BELONG WITH ME
I won't give up
I'm possessed by her
After hearing Markkus's story about the events during Elsa's coronation and about her powers, Linus couldn't wait to see her anymore. He waited for seven years; it was time for him to be reunited with his true love.
He opted to go alone—except for the crew and a few servants, of course. The Sapphire was the only ship built for leisure in Tallak's navy. It was equipped with all the luxury a royal could need: an elegant dining room, a comfortable stateroom, private bathrooms, an equipped kitchen, and many more comforts.
·
When he arrived at Arendelle, the people greeted him warmly and he greeted them back. It seemed like an eternal winter never happened; people were joyful and the village square was in perfect conditions. A group of children ran beside him.
"Look, it's the queen and princess!" one of the children yelled, pointing. Linus's eyes followed the direction of the child's finger. There she was, Elsa.
She was wearing an off-the-shoulder powder blue gown. There was a slit on the long skirt, allowing him the sight of her creamy, long, pale leg, the bodice seemed as if it were made of crystal and shone in the sunlight, the sleeves were of a sheer light blue, and there was a transparent glitter cape attached to the dress, hanging beneath her shoulders. Her hair was plaited in a french braid placed over her shoulder; her bangs were wisped back and there were tiny snowflakes encrusted in the braid.
'She'll make a lovely bride', Linus thought.
She was absolutely gorgeous, even more beautiful than how he remembered her, but still an angel. Perfect. Markkus's feeling was right; this new free, lively Elsa was more appealing than the reserved fifteen-year-old Elsa who Linus met.
·
Anna wanted to get fresh bread from the village. Now that the gates were open, she didn't feel trapped in her own home anymore and was determined to enjoy every moment of freedom; she also was glad that she finally had the sister she longed for. Anna dragged Elsa into different kinds of sisterly bonding activities every chance she had.
Anna insisted that Elsa braided her red hair every morning. Elsa was more than glad to do it, and, in exchange, she let Anna brush her hair at night. They had sleepovers most of the time, some in Anna's room and some in Elsa's new room. Both sisters were making up for the lost time, especially now that Elsa could touch Anna without the fear of freezing her.
Both were walking along the village market. Anna was carrying a basket full of bread, pink flowers, and fruit. She was trying not drop the heavy basket. Elsa giggled. The villagers bowed respectfully and greeted both sisters warmly.
"Do you need help?" Elsa offered her sister.
"No, it's fine. I can do it." Anna was determined. Elsa just giggled; her little sister could be very stubborn when she wanted to be.
A shy child walked towards them; his cheeks were pink and he had two tiny flowers in his hand. He held them in front of the sisters.
"Are they for us?" asked Anna. He nodded.
Elsa leaned down and took the flowers gently. She put one behind her ear and the other behind Anna's.
"Thank you, they're beautiful." Elsa smiled to the child. He smiled brightly and ran back to where his friends were waiting for him, huge grins on all of their faces.
"Look, it's the queen and princess!" one of the children that just arrived with her parents yelled, pointing towards them. She ran towards the sisters.
"Agatha, come here!" hushed her father, but she continued forward. She stopped in front of Elsa and clapped her hands together.
"I love snow!" she said enthusiastically. "Could you please make it snow? Pleaseee?" she begged. Elsa laughed, covering her mouth elegantly with one hand.
"Of course, Agatha," she said sweetly.
She raised her hands and magic sparks emerged from them. She waved her hands and the sparks turned into beautiful snowflakes falling over Agatha. She squealed and jumped, catching the snowflakes with both hands. Elsa smiled. She looked like Anna when she was five years old. Other children joined in with Agatha, all of them laughing and playing with the snow.
Anna and Elsa smiled to each other and parted to the palace. People bowed to them and thanked their queen for the joy she brought to the children. She was glad that her folk didn't fear her and embraced her powers just fine.
"You're great," Anna whispered to Elsa.
"You're greater," Elsa whispered back.
·
Linus was amazed. When he saw Elsa for the first time in seven years, he wasn't expecting to find her so stunning, and when he saw her do her magic, he fell in love with her over again. He was in a trance just watching her beauty. Then she started to part to the palace and he hurried to catch up to her.
He intercepted both sisters. Elsa and Anna stopped abruptly; Anna almost dropped the basket.
"Queen Elsa." Linus bowed politely, then he saw Anna. "Princess." He bowed again. Elsa just stared at him, confused. "I'm King Linus of Tallak."
"Oh, it's you!" Anna recognized his name. "I mean…" she started when she realized that it wasn't the appropriate behavior in front of a king. "Nice to meet you." She bowed and almost dropped the basket. "Oops!" she caught the basket. "Sorry." She giggled nervously. "Help," she whispered to her sister.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, your Majesty." Elsa bowed her head politely.
Some guards from the palace saw how Linus approached the sisters so abruptly; they got worried. They hurried to their rulers and stood straightly beside them.
"Your Majesty, your Highness," greeted the general. "Is everything fine?" He eyed Linus suspiciously.
"Yes, thank you for your concern," Elsa said, keeping her regal poise. "This is King Linus of Tallak." She gestured elegantly to Linus.
"Your Majesty," the general saluted him and the rest of his men did the same.
"Could I have a few words with you, your Majesty, in private?" Linus asked Elsa politely, disregarding the guards and the general.
She was stupefied; she was, after all, still relearning how to interact with people—socially speaking—and being alone with an outsider, it was too much for her to take. Anna was concerned for her sister; she had observed how difficult it has been for Elsa to reintegrate to society. The general was even more suspicious of Linus now.
Elsa could feel the pressure; she couldn't reject him because he's a king and it might put Arendelle in difficulties. Linus was hopeful and excited, a part of him was afraid she would reject him. And after what seemed to be an endless silence, Elsa finally responded.
"Sure." She looked to her sister and the guards. They understood that they must part, but Anna looked at her apprehensively.
Elsa smiled, conveying to her that she'd be fine; Anna hesitated to leave her sister alone, but she knew Elsa would be fine.
She walked along with the guards towards the palace. One of them offered help with the basket and Anna accepted. Elsa chuckled under her breath— she finally accepted help with the basket. Elsa turned away from them and spoke with Linus. Anna gazed back to her sister, watching how Linus spoke with Elsa, until they were out of her sight.
·
Elsa entered the palace a few moments later and went directly to her office to carry out her queen duties. Anna peeked inside Elsa's office. She was writing energetically; the only sound was the feather rasping the paper. She opened the door a bit and stuck her head in.
"Elsa?" she said quietly. "Is everything okay?"
"Yes," Elsa said enthusiastically with a smile on her lips. "I'm just writing a letter to the king of Corona to thank him for the food supplies he will send."
After she thawed Arendelle, the farmers realized that parts of the crops were lost due to the low temperatures. Princess Rapunzel and Prince Eugene offered to give the necessary supplies for the citizens to not starve during the normal winter. Also, Elsa found a way to renegotiate some deals and now that the trade with Wesselton was cut off, Arendelle could use this profit to survive the rest of the year.
Elsa felt guilty for this situation; she blamed herself. That was why she promised that from now on, she'd do her best to make up to Arendelle for the winter in summer she brought.
"Did you know Queen Primrose is our mother's second cousin?" Elsa said, smiling. Queen Primrose is Rapunzel's mother.
"Really?" Anna entered the office completely, closing the door quietly behind her. "So Princess Rapunzel is our cousin too! Right?" Elsa nodded. "Oh, Elsa!" Anna clapped her hands together. "That's fantastic! We should invite her to stay at the palace in a few days. We should have sleepovers, the three of us!" she took her sister's hand. "Of course, it'd be in your room because my room is smaller." Elsa laughed.
"Not to mention that it always look like a explosion occurred in there," Elsa joked.
"Hey!" Anna complained, but then put a mischievous smile on her face. "Do you want to build a snowman?"
She didn't even need hesitate.
"Duh!" she took Anna's hand and dragged her to the garden.
·
Lord Holge Danske was standing in front of the window, watching the rulers of Arendelle make a big snowman with the snow his queen conjured. The little talking snowman, Olaf, was hopping around them—he wasn't used to the sisters' little friend yet, but the kids in town loved him.
Anna took Olaf's head and placed it on the big snowman that she made with Elsa. Olaf looked to his new body and smiled while his real body ran and crashed into a tree. The sisters laughed. Anna took advantage of this distraction to throw a snowball in her sister's face. Elsa pretended to be angry and formed a giant snowball over her head, running after Anna, both of them laughing.
When both sisters passed in front of the window, Queen Elsa was running from Anna who had a large monition of snowballs in her arms. Olaf said something and his head fell from the snowman as his body came to pick him up. Then he ran after the sisters.
Lord Danske sighed in frustration.
"Something wrong, milord?" asked Kai, offering a cup of tea.
"Thank you, Kai." He accepted the tea. "I was just watching the royal sisters." Now both girls were on the ground making snow angels. "This is inappropriate behavior for a princess, not to mention a queen."
"I just see two sisters who missed each other for so long finally together and enjoying each other's company."
"I guess you're right," said Lord Danske after contemplating about it for a moment.
When King Maurice confided in him with Elsa's condition, he didn't believe it at first. But then he informed her of her parent's death and saw it. He saw how snow fell from the ceiling around Elsa, how ice formed beneath her feet. Then he believed.
He felt sorry for her; she was secluded in her own home, studying to be the perfect queen. And now that she was free, he tried his best to help her adapt to society again. She didn't have problems with her duties as queen, due to her training; but in the social plane, she was a disaster. Always insecure; what should she say? How should she act? Fortunately, she has her sister to help her.
He posed his sight to the window again. The sisters were laughing at the deformed snow angel Olaf made. He smiled; Kai was right, he needed to stop seeing Elsa and Anna as the rulers of Arendelle and instead as the two simple girls who want to have fun together after years of isolation and loneliness.
·
"What are we having for dinner tonight?" asked Anna, laying down on the snow.
"Uh, I won't have dinner with you and Kristoff," Elsa said, sitting on her snow. Anna sat up quickly, a disbelieving look on her face.
"What?!"
"King Linus invited me to have dinner on his ship, The Sapphire," Elsa said, unsure. "He said he named it after me, because of my eyes," she confessed, embarrassed, with a little blush on her cheeks.
"Wait, what?" Anna was confused, but then her face lit up. "Linus of Tallak! Isn't he the prince, well, now the king, who always sent you luxury presents and asked father to court you? He is, isn't he?"
"Yes, he is." Elsa was uncomfortable in recalling the necklace she received with his marriage proposal. Maybe it wasn't so good an idea to accept his invitation, but she really couldn't reject him. He's a king!
"What does he want with you?" asked Anna. Elsa shrugged her shoulders. "Maybe he's going to confess his undying love for you," Anna said playfully.
"I hope not." Elsa sighed. "I'm barely getting used to be around people, I wouldn't know how to handle a relationship."
Olaf was playing in the snow, trying to make a perfect snow angel. Still, he was listening carefully to the sisters. He got up quickly; somebody wanted to confess to Elsa! Well, if somebody wanted to confess to Elsa, Olaf will test him first.
"Don't worry, Anna. I'll make sure this Linus person won't hurt Elsa. Hiyah!" He lifted his foot up into the air. "See that? I've been learning the art of ka-ra-tay." Both sisters laughed.
·
Linus made sure everything was perfect; he supervised to the last detail. He asked for chocolate cake for dessert—Markkus told him chocolate was Elsa's favorite dessert—, he lit the candles scattered around the dining room to have a most romantic atmosphere and scattered rose petals as well. He went to the deck to wait for Elsa. He smiled when he saw her walking to his ship. She was mostly alone, except there was a white clump accompanying her.
When she got closer, he saw that the white clump was in fact a very alive snowman. It seemed to be holding a conversation with his dear Elsa.
"So, you know, Elsa, if he tries something funny, don't be afraid of use your powers and turn him into a popsicle! And I'll be waiting outside," the snowman said.
'A talking snowman! Markkus did not mention anything of this creature', Linus thought, trying not to freak out. But the melodious laugh of Elsa brought him back to reality.
"I'm sure that won't be necessary, Olaf." Elsa leaned in to peek him on his cheek.
"Scream if you need help, I'll get Marshmallow." Olaf took Elsa's hand in his twig.
Elsa got up, noticing they arrived at Linus's ship. He was waiting for her. She picked a pale silver dress with blue details on the waistband, at the end of the sleeves and skirt, and some around the 'V'-line neck. She styled her head in a braided bun and put her bangs on her forehead. She applied a bit of make up; she did what she could to not look appealing; the conversation with Anna got her thinking about King Linus's intentions towards her.
But her plan failed. Because no matter what she did, in Linus's eyes, she'll always be the perfect angel he met seven years ago. He extended his hand to help her climb onto the deck.
"Hey you! I'll be right here watching! So you better not try anything funny or I will kick your butt! I'm watching you, buddy!" Olaf said to Linus, pointing to his eyes and then Linus. "Don't worry Elsa, I'm right here to protect you." Just then, a squirrel ran in front of him. "Oh, squirrel!" he ran after it. Elsa just giggled, covering her mouth.
"I'm sorry for that," she apologized to Linus. "Olaf is very protective over me and Anna, but he's very sweet."
"Did you create him?"
"Yes, actually. Although I still can't explain how." Elsa was nervous.
"It's okay." He offered his arm to her. "If you create him, I'm sure I'll like him." He lead her to the dining room.
It was beautiful. The crystal chandelier was hanging above the center of the large table. There were candles and roses everywhere. A woman was playing the harp in a corner of the dining room. Everything was so romantic. Elsa was definitely in trouble.
The conversation was nice and Elsa was enjoying his stories. He wanted to know much about her, but when you spend thirteen years locked in your room, there's not much to say about yourself. And besides, it wasn't something she wanted to talk about. Currently, they were laughing at Linus's funny anecdote.
"Seven years ago, Arendelle helped Tallak avoid starvation," Linus said when the conversation got more serious. "Nowadays, Tallak has increased its riches and it's time to return the favor; I want to help you turn Arendelle into a powerful kingdom, but not only because of the help we received." He inched closer.
"Elsa." Linus took her hand delicately. "Since the first moment I saw you, my heart has belonged to you."
'Oh no.' Elsa was getting nervous, but she tried not to show it.
"I think you're a beautiful and strong woman; I know life's not been easy for you. That's why…" He took out a little blue velvet box from his jacket. "I want to take care of you." He opened the box, revealing a silver ring with a big rock in the middle and smaller diamonds encrusted on both sides of the band.
'Oh boy.' She was astonished.
"Will you marry me?" his eyes were full of adoration now, along with a glint of hope.
I should have taken up Olaf's suggestion about Marshmallow. She was speechless.
"I promise you, Elsa." He put his hand on her cheek. Her skin was a bit cold, but it didn't bother her. "I'll make you the happiest woman in the world."
'I need Marshmallow. Where is Marshmallow?' She felt the urge to run away.
·
Next day.
Elsa was in Anna's room, brushing her sister's hair. She caressed the spot where Anna's white streak used to be. Elsa was glad that it was gone; it was an awful reminder of that terrible night and how dangerous she could be. Every time she spotted it in the past, it was like a punch in the stomach.
"Seriously, Anna, how do you get your hair like this every morning?"
"Well, not everybody can be as perfect as you," Anna giggled nervously, afraid that it would hurt Elsa. She did, of course, say it jokingly though.
"I'm not perfect," Elsa said quietly.
"How was dinner?" Anna changed the topic, noticing Elsa's discomfort.
"I don't want to talk about it," she said seriously.
"Something bad happened?" Anna asked, but Elsa stayed silent.
She didn't try to insist. If there's something Anna learned from the coronation's disaster, it was that she shouldn't push Elsa. But, rather, wait for Elsa to come around. So she'll wait for Elsa to open up.
·
That same morning, The Sapphire left Arendelle's port. Linus wanted to arrive to Tallak as soon as possible. There'll be an important event that involves Queen Elsa, King Linus, and a third person. Nobody could imagine the storm that's about to occur.
∞·∞
The sun went down and the moon rose up. There wasn't a cloud on the night sky, the stars were shining, but the brightest was the moon. Nights in the Valley of the Living Rock were never quiet. The trolls rolled around, laughing and dancing. Pabbie felt magic in the air and traced it back to the moon. He separated from the group to a clear part of the valley.
"Tell me, my dear friend." He watched to the moon. "What do you want to tell me?"
A moonbeam illuminated a normal plain rock; it projected a female silhouette; she was making snowflakes with her hands, but then, suddenly, she cowered and a pair of big hands captured her. The image dissolved.
Pabbie's eyes were wide. The ice queen was in danger.
∞·∞
Nicholas St. North was in his workshop sculpting ice. The yetis opened the door abruptly and the surprise made Santa Claus break the sculpture.
"What did I say about knocking?" He groaned, frustrated at the hairy creatures. Then he reached out to take a cookie, but there were only crumbs on the plate. "Elves!"
North entered the globe room, looking for the elves that ate his cookies. He knew they were trying to hide the evidence. The yetis followed him from the room, trying to communicate with the Father of Christmas, but he was ignoring them. Then he noticed one yeti pointing to the window where the moon could be seen with no problem. It was shining mystically.
"Hello, Man in the Moon!" he greeted. "Things are going well here and Jack is doing a great job bringing fun to the children, but he and Bunny still have a few issues. But don't worry, they'll get along soon enough," he said to the moon.
A moonbeam touched the insignia of the guardians on the floor, where the moonstone is hidden. The light formed the silhouette of an old enemy.
"Pitch!" North exclaimed in disbelief.
The silhouette changed into a lightning framed in a circle.
"I understand," he said. "He's in another world. Where should we begin to look for him?" he looked to moon once again.
The lightning transformed into a crocus.
North activated the Northern Lights. The Guardians were needed; Pitch was back, bringing fear in another dimension. Pitch might think that in another world, he'll be unreachable, but he was about to discover how wrong he was.
·
"Wohooo!" a scream of joy went unheard.
Jack was on the top of the Statue of Liberty. He brought a snow day to the big apple. Adults were complaining about how the traffic was worse with all the snow, but the children in the parks were having so much fun.
"Well, my job here is done," he said proudly. "It's time to go to one of my favorite places in the world." He threw himself down New York's streets.
Before touching the ground, he floated over the New Yorkers' heads, flying beside a park. When the children saw him, they ran along with him, waving their hands.
"Hello, Jack!"
"Thank you, Mr. Frost!"
"It's Jack Frost!"
Jack laughed happily. After finally being believed in, life for Jack was great. He enjoyed being a guardian and making sure nothing would take away children's fun. After all, he's the Guardian of Fun!
"Thank you, it's my pleasure," he said. He elevated himself over the entire city. "Wind! Take me to Finland!"
The wind carried him to said country. Jack liked Finland; it was full of forest and lakes. It was evening when he arrived and brought snow. The children played in the snow and he joined a few times; he also guided their sleds.
He was now resting in a tree near Lake Inari. He could spot some teenage couples hugging each other while stargazing. As an eternal teenager, Jack sometimes wanted to experience some of the normal teenage stuff, like developing a crush on someone special and getting a girlfriend who he could spend time with, hold hands with, share feelings with, and maybe a little kissing.
He watched with some jealousy at some of the couples, staring into each others' eyes with love; it was unfair, he wanted to have that too. Then the couples looked to the sky in awe. The northern lights appeared.
Jack left the tree and his thoughts; he flew to the North Pole. He had a guardian job to do.
·
By the time he arrived, Bunny, Tooth, and Sandy were already there. Tooth was rambling with some fairies about the location of teeth to pick up, Sandy was trying to keep his eggnog away from the elves, and Bunny was painting an egg, but stopped when he spotted Jack enter through the open window.
"Finally! I was thinking that maybe you didn't take being a guardian a serious thing," Bunny said sarcastically.
"Of course I do!" defended Jack. "But then I see a big ugly kangaroo and well… it's not easy to take you guys seriously," he added mischievously.
"I'm sorry, what did you call me?!" Bunny stood up; he and Jack glared each other.
"Guys, guys, stop." Tooth stepped in between them. "North called us here for a reason. Now let's play nice."
Sandy waved his hand in agreement with Tooth and formed two hands shaking each other over his head.
"Sandy is right!" said Tooth. "Now make peace."
Jack and Bunny groaned and shook hands reluctantly.
"Where's North?" asked Jack when he noticed the old man's absence.
"I don't know. He called us and then locked himself up in his workshop," answered Bunny. "Ha! Just because he has to work only once a year doesn't mean others don't have to either."
Suddenly, North entered the room, holding a dusty parchment in his hand.
"I found it!" he said cheerfully.
"An old paper?" said Bunny in a dead-pan voice "You called us here to show us an old piece of paper?!"
"No, of course not! Now calm yourself, Bunny," North said. "Pitch is back," he said in a serious tone. "The Man in the Moon told me earlier, but he's not in this world."
"What?! What do you mean 'not in this world'?" Jack asked, confused.
"You see, Jack, there are different dimensions. One could be alike to anoother or totally different," explained Tooth. "This world in particular is tied with a magical realm."
"A magical realm?" Jack asked.
"Yes, and Pitch is there," said North, opening the parchment and spreading it out on the table. "The Man in the Moon showed me two crests." North's fingers traveled along the parchment's surface, passing different drawings. "Here it is!" his finger stopped on the lightning drawing. "Tallak," he read under the lightning. "That's where Pitch is!"
"Then let's go and beat his lousy butt!" said Bunny, throwing his fist to the air. Sandy clapped.
"Wait, the Man in the Moon showed me the other kingdom's crest."
"Kingdom?" Jack said.
"Yes, in the other world, monarchy is still available," said Tooth.
North continued in his search of the crocus crest; he found it besides the drawing of a sun.
"Arendelle," said the big man. "That's where we'll go first," he announced. "Let's mount the sled!" he yelled enthusiastically. Bunny groaned and Sandy clapped excitedly.
They walked to the sled; Jack was excited, considering the fact that he'd meet new people and be in a different dimension.
"Tell me more about that world," he said gleefully. "Come on, Babytooth!" he offered his hand to the little fairy.
"Magic exists in that world, so we can be seen by anyone—even adults!" Tooth said.
"Really? I should have found out about that dimension a long time ago," Jack said. A world where you don't need to be believed to be seen; if he had traveled to that place long ago, he could have avoided spending 300 years of loneliness.
"And it's full of magical creatures," added North.
"I want to see the magical sunflower with its healing powers," said Bunny enthusiastically.
"Oh, it doesn't exist anymore; its powers were absorbed by a princess. She used to had magical golden hair." informed Tooth. Sandy formed a girl with his sand, but instead of legs, she had a fish tale. "You want to see the mermaids, don't you, Sandy?"
"I heard King Triton's youngest daughter married a human prince," included North.
"Wait, wait. Slow down! Mermaids? Princess with magical hair? Healing powers?" Jack waved his arms in the air. "What are you talking about?!"
They got in the sled and it started to fly through the sky.
"I told you, magic exists in that world. I'll tell you more during the journey," said Tooth.
North took out one of his snow globes.
"To the other world," he whispered; he threw it into the air and a portal opened.
"One day, a drop of sunlight fell on the earth and a gold flower bloomed from it; this flower had healing powers, and then an old woman found it…" Tooth started to tell Jack while he listened attentively with Babytooth over his head.
∞·∞
"Elsa!" Anna entered her sister's chambers. "Come to play with us!"
"Us?" Elsa put down her book, looking at her sister skeptically.
"Kristoff, Olaf, Sven, me, and some village children," Anna said, counting with her fingers. "It'll be fun. Hey, could you lend me a dress? The blue one with pink flowers embroidered on the bodice? Please? Please?"
Elsa opened her closet and searched for the dress. She handed it to Anna when she found it.
"I'm sure no matter what you wear, in Kristoff's eyes, you're the fairest in the land," Elsa said.
"Thank you." Anna blushed. "It just that blue makes your eyes pop, and since my eyes are blue too, I thought maybe my eyes will stand out too!" she explained.
·
"… then he took a piece of the jagged mirror and cut her hair; he knew it was the only way she'll be free from that awful woman."
"Wow." Jack was speechless.
"We've arrived!" announced North.
"Thank the lord," mumbled Bunny.
"Welcome to Arendelle!" said North.
Jack poked his head out and saw a small village surrounded by tall mountains and a fjord; there was a palace separated by a bridge from it. The sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly in the sky. Jack thought that North would land there, but he kept moving forward.
"Where are we going?" Jack asked, curious.
"To the Valley of the Living Rock," answered North.
·
In a small forest near the village, snow was falling lightly and there were ice sculptures displaying different shapes. The children played in the snow and asked Elsa to make ice sculptures. Elsa was having fun; she totally forgot about the awkward dinner she shared with King Linus.
Anna and Elsa were running from Kristoff and a group of children. They were trying to catch the sisters. Kristoff took Anna in his arms and Agatha hugged Elsa from behind by the waist. They laughed. Olaf jumped in joy and accidentally disassembled himself; some children picked him up and help him reassemble.
"Let's play hide and seek," proposed Anna.
"Yay!" exclaimed the children.
·
The sled landed in a valley. There were only rocks covered with moss and trees around the valley in a circle. Bunny jumped rapidly out of the sled, Tooth flew around in company of Babytooth, and Jack and Sandy looked around. Jack was a little disappointed; he wanted to go to the town to meet people.
"Hello!" said North.
"Rocks?" said Bunny. "Are you talking to the rocks?"
Before he or North could say anything else, the rocks started to move and rolled in front of then. Suddenly, they took another form; they had eyes, ears, arms, and legs. They were wearing different crystal necklaces on their necks. They were staring curiously at the guardians.
"They're trolls!" said Tooth.
"Visitors!" The trolls said in unison joyfully.
"Are those trolls?" Jack whispered to Bunny.
"It looks like it," said Bunny, not very sure.
"Is there anyone we can talk to?" said North.
The trolls made way for a big and greener rock as it rolled forward; it stopped in front of North. He was a wiser and older troll; a lot of herbs were on his back.
"You're the guardians from the other world," the wise troll said. "Manny sent you because of the shadow man, yes?"
The Guardians stayed in silence. The troll seemed to know about them and Pitch. There was only one explanation for that; the Man in the Moon told him.
"My name is Pabbie; I'm the chief of the valley's trolls. The moon told me you'd come," he continued speaking. "I'd like to know much about the shadow man, he's threatening my home and family."
"Don't worry, we're here to end him for good," Bunny said.
Pabbie lead the guardians to the same clearing where he spoke with the Man in the Moon. They told him about Pitch and their duties as guardians. Pabbie told them about the magic in this world; about the will it developed with throughout the years. They exchanged theories about why Pitch would come here and what his plans were.
Jack was bored to death. He wanted action or to meet people. Everyone was deeply emerged in the talk, so he backed up slowly until he was in the forest. From there, he floated to the village. He stepped back onto the ground when he heard voices.
He entered, walking to the village square. It was a picturesque village; the people were chatting happily. When they spotted Jack, they greeted him nicely.
"Hello!" said a young brown haired lady. "You're not from here. I can give you a tour if you'd like." She moved her eyelashes coquettishly.
"Uh, I'm just walking around." He blushed, her advances made him nervous.
He kept walking. More people came to greet him and give him the welcome to Arendelle, some of them shook hands with him. Jack never felt so alive; he felt part of the world again, just like when he was alive.
"I love this place," Jack said.
And he was sincere. People—adults—were warm and cheerful, and the best of all, he could be seen. He heard some laughter coming from a small forest; now that he thought about it, he didn't see any children. He followed the sounds of the laughter and saw a pair of twins hidden behind a tree; they were trying to suppress their laughs.
"Hi, I'm Jack. What are you doing?" he asked the children.
"We're playing hide and seek," whispered one twin.
"Cool. Can I join?"
"Yes, but you have to find your own hideout," whispered the other twin.
Jack was walking to the opposite side when something caught his sight. There was snow on the ground; he walked to it. A small portion of the forest was covered in snow; the trees had ice orchids handing from their branches and a lot of ice sculptures were around. An angel, a reindeer, a small castle, a puppy, a pirate ship, and many more figures were scattered around the place. He placed his staff on a near tree to inspect the place.
He was looking around, amazed at the sight. How could this be possible in the middle of summer? If Bunny could see it, it'll be really funny to see his reaction. He was distracted admiring the details of the ice sculptures; not even santa was able to make such detailed sculptures in his workshop.
He was immersed in his thoughts when he felt someone hug him from behind.
"I found you!" said a melodic female voice.
She buried her face in his back and put her arms around his waist, a delicate pair of hands resting on his stomach. He was paralyzed; children have hugged him before and he liked it, especially when it was Jamie because he was his first believer. The first time after Pitch was defeated and Jamie hugged him, he felt an immense joy. But now that this unknown girl was hugging him, the feelings of joy and amazement were overwhelming.
He took her hands in his and felt her tense. Her hands were soft and her arms were covered in magenta gloved. He caressed her palms with his thumps, enjoying the touch, but she just grew more rigid. He turned his head to see the mysterious girl and she faced him too. He felt warmth growing in his heart.
Jack Frost encountered a pair of marvelous cerulean eyes. She had platinum blonde hair styled in a braid over her shoulder, her bangs were wisped back, and she had barely visible freckles on her nose. Jack was speechless due to her ethereal beauty; her facial expression revealed that she was astonished.
But that didn't matter to him. She was the most beautiful creature he'd ever seen.
She was like April sky
Child of light, Shinning star

I can't take credit for 'Karatay Olaf' and the roses of Linus dinner, that's infinitely-lost idea which I loved it! the roses were a nice touch.
I hope you've enjoyed the chapter and Jack, of course and here is:
PREVIEW CHAPTER 6:
"I'm Jack Frost." He put his hand on his chest and walked towards her. "What is your name?"
"Who was she?" Jack asked to the wind, still dreaming about her eyes. "You found me, now it's my turn to find you." He said with determination.
'Who was he?' She wondered and remembered his smile. 'Why is my heart beating so hard?' She put her hand over her chest. 'What is this that I'm feeling?'
"What do you know about King Linus?" Lord Danske asked in a serious tone that worried Elsa.
"Do you think Tallak will declare us war just because I said no?"
