Chapter 7
Jack's POV
After I left Elsa's room, I went to go talk with the Guardians. "So what now? She was the only way we had to defeat Pitch and Hate. Now that her powers are gone, how are we going to beat them?" I asked. North stroked his beard. "I'm not quite sure, but I'm sure Manny has a solution. Perhaps we can ask him later on. He may have a way to bring back her immortality. Or there may be someone else out there who can help us." He suggested. I really hope we don't find someone else. If we do, then everyone will just forget about Elsa and the state she's in. We'll never figure out how to get her powers back and then, eventually, she'll die, and I'll be heartbroken. Everyone nodded at this suggestion and then dispersed to do their jobs. As I was walking into the globe room, I saw Elsa throw down a snow globe and hop into the portal. I ran and followed behind her.
We ended up in grassy runes with very round rocks all over the place. I hid behind a tree and watched as Elsa went towards the middle of the runes and call out. "Grand Pabbie!" she said. It was silent for a while until, suddenly, the rocks began moving around and towards her. Once the rocks stopped in front of her, I noticed that they were trolls. "Elsa?" They all said with shock in their voices.
Elsa's POV
"Elsa?" All the trolls said in unison. "Where's Grand Pabbie?" I asked. Suddenly I heard a rumbling and the trolls cleared a path for Grand Pabbie. "Elsa, I sense something strange. Come here dear," he said. I stepped closer. His eyes widened. "Oh no, this is not good" he said. I waited for him to continue. "You're powers, they are gone," he said. "I know," I replied. "Not only that, but your heart- I know" I interrupted. "Do you know if there is a way to get my powers back, to cure me?" I asked. "I'm sorry dear, but I do not know. You already know the cure for the latter, but for the first, I have not seen this occurrence," he stated. "I understand, thank you Grand Pabbie," I said. "Wait dear," Grand Pabbie said as I began walking away. "Yes?" I asked. "I must warn you of something," he said. I came back and he whispered something in my ear. Hearing it made my eyes widen in shock as fear began coursing through my veins. He looked at me with sympathy in his eyes and I nodded my understanding. "Thank you," I said once more. Then I walked away towards my ice palace.
Jack's POV
I have so many questions for Elsa and for the trolls. For example, what's wrong with Elsa's heart? How do they know her? What is the cure? What did the troll warn Elsa about? All of these questions had arisen and I had no idea how I would get the answers. I watched as Elsa walked away and then I heard a voice. "Come out, I know you were watching," said the troll. I stepped out from behind the tree. "Guardian, what reason do you have for eavesdropping?" he asked. "Elsa is one of us," I said. He looked at me strangely. "One of you? If I am correct, she has not taken the oath yet," he said. "Well, she will be one of us," I said. "How can you be so sure, after all, you know that now she is a mere mortal once more," he said. "Yes, but I have hope that we will find a way to get back her immortality. I will do whatever it takes to get her powers and immortality back," I said. He looked at me as if he were looking deep into my very being.
"Young Guardian, be honest with yourself," he said. "What?" I asked. "I know the real reason behind your concern. You too know it. You love her. That is the reason you care so much about getting her powers and immortality back. You don't want to lose her," he said. I was at a loss for words. "There is no cure to her immortality," he said. "What?" I asked. There has to be a cure. I know there is. "I'm sorry, but there's nothing she could do to get her immortality back. She was granted that gift years before. Even Man in the moon cannot grant her immortality once more," he explained. "So, that's it? There's no way to have her live forever. I'm going to lose her no matter what?" I asked. He nodded. "I am sorry young guardian. I understand your pain of losing a loved one. However, there is nothing we can do. The best thing you can do for her is to be by her side for now. She's very emotional and will need a friend to rely on now that she does not have her sister," he said. I nodded my head in understanding. "Anything for Elsa," I said. He smiled. "Go now. She is most likely on her way back home. And remember, there is much about her that you do not know. Be patient and understanding," he said. I nodded once more. "Thank you," I said before I flew off towards her castle.
As I flew to her castle I couldn't help but think about what he had said. Elsa is never going to live forever. She's never going to be with me forever. I'm going to lose her. She's going to die, and it's all my fault. I felt something wet on my face. I brought my hand to my face and realized that I had started crying. My heart was breaking before I even told her I loved her. Tears continued to fall as I flew to her castle. Who knew that this is how it would've all turned out. The sun was setting and the moon was rising. To any normal person, this scenery would've been beautiful. But to me, it all just looked gray. The news that was told to me and the knowledge that I now hold is too much. Everything just loses light and color. The world is no longer as bright as it used to be. Why must the world be so cruel as to take the most beautiful things and destroy them? I promise I will be by Elsa's side for the rest of her life. And even after she leaves this world, I will always love her no matter what. I used to think that life was perfect, until I began to feel empty. She indirectly completed me, and now, when she leaves, I will be incomplete once more. Immortality suddenly doesn't seem as great, especially now that I will be living a life knowing that the future I could've had with the love of my life, was taken right before my eyes, and it was all my fault.
Wow how are my chapters getting shorter and shorter. I could've sworn that this one would've been longer. I feel like there are a lot more words than what it says but I guess not. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. It was pretty fun writing.
