Chapter 6

Elsa's POV

I opened my eyes and saw a bright white light. It soon faded and all I saw was a brown ceiling. I looked around the unfamiliar place. Where am I? How did I get her? Why do I feel so cold? What happened? The door opened and I began to sit up. "Woah woah woah, slow down. It's best not to strain yourself." A familiar voice said. I looked up at met big orbs of blue. "How are you feeling?" Jack asked. "A bit confused." I replied. "Where am I?" I asked as I looked around again. "You're in the infirmary," he said as he looked down. "Infirmary? But there's nothing wrong with me. I feel fine." Why would I need to be in an infirmary. "What do you remember?" He asked as he moved around.

"I-I remember we were in the globe room…. Pitch was there along with Hate. He was talking, and then the nightmares began coming after us. And then, e-everything went black" I recalled. "What happened?" I asked. Jack sat down next to me. "Well, you don't really need to know the details, but in the end, Pitch and Hate got away." He said glumly. "Oh," was all I could say. He looked so down and tired.

"Hey," I said. He didn't respond. I put my hand on his cheek, and brought his head up. His eyes held pain and sorrow."Jack, it's ok. We'll get them next time," I said, trying to comfort him. He just nodded. "I'm going to get the others, I'm sure they want to see you," he said as he began walking away. I wonder why he seems so sad and guilty. It's not his fault that they got away. After all, there were a lot of nightmares if I can remember correctly. I wonder how I got hurt. It seemed like he didn't want to tell me.

I got up and began walking around. My legs felt a bit sore and stiff, but nothing I couldn't handle. I wonder where I was wounded. What happened to me. My question was answered when I attempted to fly up, but couldn't. Hm, what's going on. I can't feel my wings. I tried again, nothing. My heart began racing. What's going on, why can't I fly? As my heart was pumping, I began to sweat. I tried to cool myself off with my powers, but nothing was working. My powers, what's going on? Why is nothing coming out? I tried again and again, trying to create anything. And yet, nothing happened.

From exhaustion and confusion, my legs collapsed from underneath me and I fell with a thud, catching myself slightly with my arms. I could not longer feel anything. It was all just numb. I was breathing heavily, trying to compose myself. What happened to me? My powers are gone. I can't feel my wings. I can't feel anything. Am I dying? This can't be happening. This is all just a dream.

Suddenly a door opened and I heard someone rushing towards me. "Oh my moon, Elsa what are you doing?" Jack said. "Jack," I breathed out. "What's wrong?" he asked with worry in his voice. "Jack," I began crying. "I can't feel my wings."

Jack's POV

Looking at Elsa's condition, I couldn't help but feel more guilt than before. I know the guardians said it wasn't my fault, but I can't help but feel like I could've done more to protect her. To protect the one I supposedly love. Looking at her state, I know I have to try harder and get stronger in order to keep her safe.

I didn't have the heart to tell her what Hate had done to her. I know I should've and she will have to know eventually, but I just couldn't. I went to fetch Tooth, Sandy, Bunny, and North in order for them to visit her. I know they probably want to see her and know how she's feeling. Also, one of them may be able to tell her what happened, lessening the weight on my shoulders.

I came back to see Elsa on the ground panting. "Oh my moon, Elsa what are you doing?" I said as I rushed to her. "Jack," she breathed out. I came in front of her. "What's wrong?" I asked worriedly. "Jack," Elsa squeaked out as she began crying. "I can't feel my wings," she said as she covered her face with her tears. My heart broke at this. Seeing her cry her heart out now that she knew the truth. I should've told her. But I didn't want to be the one to break her heart.

She continued crying and the guardians and I all looked at her with sympathy in our eyes. I put my arms around her and let her cry into my shoulder. We sat there for a while, just letting her settle down. Eventually she relaxed and we brought her back to the bed.

"Jack, what happened?" Elsa asked. Her voice was still hoarse from her crying. The sound of it no longer brought joy to me. She sounded so broken, too broken. "I-I didn't get there fast enough," I said. This is all my fault. No matter what anyone says, it's my fault that she is in this situation. "I didn't mean it like that," she began. "I meant, what did they do to me." She put her hand on mine and I looked up into her eyes. They held pain, sorrow, fear. I couldn't look at them any longer.

"Please Jack," she begged. I took a deep breath. "Right when Pitch started to attack, Hate somehow managed to grab you. The nightmares had surrounded the Guardians and I making us fight our way through to get to you. When I finally finished with the nightmares around me, I had noticed where Hate had brought you. There were nightmares surrounding you guys. I tried to get there as fast as I can. I saw him holding you by your neck. There was this bluish white light coming from your eyes and mouth. It was draining into him. Once the light stopped coming from you, you were limp. He then made some sort of blue ball of light and shoved it into you. It was then that your wings began to freeze and crack. They broke off and he dropped you, I went to catch you and that brings us to now," I explained. I looked up at her and guilt flooded through me. She looked broken, pained, utterly hopeless. "I'm so sorry Elsa," I said, I felt tears begin to collect but I held them back. "It's ok Jack, Thank you for telling me," she said. Her voice caught a little as if she were trying to hold back her tears. "If it's alright with you, I would like to be alone for now," she said. I hesitated, but then decided it was best to leave her be. I'm so sorry Elsa.

Elsa's POV

After Jack told me about what happened, I didn't know how to feel. I was saddened and scared, but at the same time, I felt bad. I could tell that Jack felt guilty. He felt like it was his fault. I wasn't angry at him, I just felt so empty now. Without my powers, I'm nothing but a mere lonely human. It was then that I realized something. Who's going to bring love to the people? Without my wings or my powers, there's no one to spread love. Plus, it's not like the guardians can do anything about it, afterall, none of them have the power of love.

My powers, I used to think they were a curse, but then I grew to love them. I grew to live with them and cherish them. Now, they're gone. I have nothing left. I felt a pain in my chest and I shivered slightly. Wait, I'm cold. I then realized what Hate had done. That blue and white light, that was my powers, that was obvious. But the light he created that wasn't just light. That was ice. He froze my heart. I have no powers against it. No love. Nothing. I'm a human with a frozen heart. Anna. I'm just like Anna. Except this time, I have no one to save me. I began to have another panic attack. Breathing heavily and gripping onto my hair. What am I going to do? Am I going to die? My immortality is gone. I have no way of surviving this. No no no no no. This isn't right. This can't be happening. Wake up Elsa. This isn't happening. It's all just a nightmare.

I sat there, crying and trying to convince myself that this wasn't actually reality. However, my attack died down and I was soon brought back to the real world. I have to get out of here. I have to see the trolls. I have to think. I got out of the bed and headed to the globe room. There, I found one of North's snow globes and whispered "Valley of the living rocks." I threw it down and stepped into the portal. I know I shouldn't be going out alone with Pitch still around. But I'm human now, I'm no threat. I need to do this in order to survive. "Grand Pabbie!" I yelled out. The rocks began moving towards me. "Elsa?"

Hey guys! So this chapter holds the part that really made me want to make this story. The part about her wings...yeah that's the major part that started this whole story. I know, it's not a very big or important part, but like, for some reason, it made me really want to write this story so yup. You have that part to thank for this. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this chapter. There are some parts that may just be like wth is going on but I tried to make it flow ok. Also, thank you to those who have left all of the nice reviews about my story. I'm glad you like it. A lot of you say that my story is like original or has parts that aren't in other stories when in actuality, my story is very cliche. Like a lot of my ideas are inspired from other fics that I have read before. I believe the only things that are my original creation are what the characters are saying. Other than that, it's all pretty cliche and lame. But thank you anyways for all the nice things you have said. It really boosts my confidence. Anyways, thank you and I will try to get the next chapter out soon. hope you enjoyed.
