Chapter 18
Jack's POV
"Tooth what's going on?" Bunny asked as we hurried rushed to the place in which none of us have been for 16 years. "Well, I was feeling really down for some reason and I realized it's because it's almost the anniversary. So I decided to go visit her castle and when I got there...you just have to see" she said as she began to fly faster.
We slammed the balcony doors open and what we saw made all of us gasp. Elsa's casket was still there, but the top was on the ground and Elsa's body wasn't there anymore. It's not melted because there's no water and her necklace that I gave her would've still been there. "H-how is this possible?" I asked. "Does this mean she's alive?" Bunny asked as we all looked to North. "Manny must know something about this. I will ask him tonight. I'm sure there is a perfectly good answer to this," North said, he sounded a bit unconfident.
The Guardians all left to do their jobs before night, but I stayed there looking at the empty casket. "Elsa, where are you?" I asked to no one in particular. There's no way she's alive. Her heart froze as a human. Manny wouldn't be able to bring her back a second time, would he? I looked out the window and felt a strange pull towards the little city of Arendelle. Curious, I let that pull guide me.
It brought me to a house, more specifically to a window. There, I saw something which made my heart flutter. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I saw a girl, a girl with platinum blonde hair, the bluest of eyes, the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. No, it can't be her. You're just imagining things. There's no way it can be her. The girl looks too young as well. She's just a mere human who resembles Elsa.
Yet, why did the wind bring me here? I continued to observe the girl more, she was looking down, out of her window. She wore a blue sweater accompanied with some gray sweats. Her hair was in a braid, just like Elsa's used to be. Suddenly she looked up and our eyes met. At least, I think they did. She looked at me in shock.
I can't believe it, she sees me. How can she see me? She's a teenager, there's no way she would continue to believe in the Guardians. Suddenly, I saw the all too familiar colorful lights shine in the sky. Without turning back. I flew to North's workshop.
Elsa's POV
As I looked out my window, I couldn't help but enjoy the beautiful blanket of snow. Part of me wanted to run down and go play in it, but I resisted. Right now, the warmth and luxury of my room felt all too good. I looked up to meet eyes! The bluest eyes I've ever seen. There was a boy outside my window. He had silverish white hair and pale skin and he was floating!
Suddenly a beautiful array of lights lit up the sky and the boy flew away. That was when I blinked and came back to my senses. "Ugh, what is wrong with me?" I asked to no one in particular. I must've been staring so long I began hallucinating. I shook my head in order to clear my thoughts. I wonder who it was that I saw.
Suddenly my mom came in. "Hey snowflake, guess what tomorrow is!" she sang. I smiled. "I don't know, is it Easter?" I asked jokingly. "No silly willy, it's my baby girl's birthday!" she said. "It's really no big deal mom," I said as she enveloped me in a hug. "Of course it's a big deal! You're turning 16, almost an adult," she said as she wiped a stray tear from her eyes. "Awww don't worry mom. I'll always be your girl," I said.
"I know, I know. It's just, you're growing up so fast. It feels like just yesterday where your father and I held you in our arms for the first time," she said. I giggled at her. "So, what do you want for your birthday?" she asked. "Hmm, I don't know. My life is perfect," I replied. "Oh come on! You're a teenager! All teenagers want something!" my mom said exasperatedly. I rolled my eyes. "Well not this teenager. And besides, why are you just now asking me? My birthday is tomorrow...wait a minute, did you and dad forget again?" I asked. "Whaat no! We would never," she said unconvincingly. "Oh you did!" I replied. "No, trust me, we didn't. In fact, we already bought you your present, I was just asking you to see if you wanted anything else," my mother explained
I nodded. "Mhmm sure, whatever you say," I said with a smile on my face. "Really we did," my mom said. "Ok, ok, I believe you," I said as I gave her a hug. I really did love my mother and father. I was more of a momma's girl, but I loved my father a lot as well. They did everything for me. Giving me whatever I would want or need and supporting me in everything. I don't know what I could've done in my past life to be blessed with them.
"So, what about tomorrow? What do you want to do?" my mother asked. "Hmmmm, how about ice skating, maybe get some ice cream, watch a movie?" I asked. My mother nodded excitedly. One thing about my family is that we all love winter. I guess that's why I really belong in this family, afterall, I am practically winter. "Just your dad and I or do you want to invite some friends?" she asked. "Hmmmm, can I invite Perri?" I asked. "Of course. Whoever you want! I expected you to choose her anyway," my mom said.
Perri has been my friend since I was a child. She's practically a sister. She knows about my powers and totally idolizes me for them. When we were younger, we used to pretend that she was a frost fairy and me a snow queen.
We heard a car honk and then the door to our house begin opening. "Oh, your father is home, better tell him about tomorrow," my mother said as she got up. We both walked downstairs to the family room to see my father untying his shoes. "Hey dad," I said. He turned around and smiled. "Hey snowflake!" He said as he came up and gave me a hug. "Have you grown since the last time I saw you?" he asked. "Pretty sure I haven't considering I saw you this morning," I replied. He smiled. "Good. I don't want you to ever grow up," he said as he squeezed me in a tight hug. My mother laughed and joined in.
It was times like this when I realized just how perfect my life was. I had my family, and really, that was all I'll ever need.
Okay so after pasting chapter 17 into this, I realized just how small that chapter was. It wasn't even 1,000 words, so I decided, eh, why not try and make up for it by posting chapter 18 on the same day. Because I haven't update for a while, I figured this would make up for both the time lost and the words written. I hope you enjoyed these past two chapters. I really tried to bring out the love in which Elsa felt for her parents. I really do enjoy love, not just the romantic type, but the family type too. I wanted the human Elsa to experience family love once more since Anna is not around. Anna doesn't really have a big part in this story and probably won't have many parts from now on, I'm sorry if you wanted to see more of her. Anyways, hope you enjoy. Thanks for reading!
