Good morning everyone! Sorry if it's a bit early for you guys, but I needed to get on here for school anyway, so I was like: why not upload another couple chapters? And so, here I am. I hope you guys like it!
Chapter 18 Good and Evil
Elsa's POV
I opened my eyes to find myself lying down. I got up and my eyes widened, my mouth dropping open. I was standing in the middle of a street several skyscrapers. The city looked like the worst possible earthquake had gone through it.
People were running toward me and past me, screaming. Growing curious, I tried to fly. When that didn't work, I walked against the flood of people and began to hear singing. I walked faster and soon found who was causing the destruction to the city.
It was Isa, her back toward me, who had her arms stretched to the side, her palms facing the buildings. Every time she took a step forward, the buildings on either side of her began to crumble. By the time she reached the other side of each building, it had collapsed in a huge heap of dust.
And, in the midst of all this, Isa continued singing.
"The secret side of me
I'll always let you see
Won't keep it caged
And I won't control it
So stay away from me
The beast is ugly
I feel the rage
And I just won't hold it
It's scratching on the walls
In the closet, in the halls
It comes awake
And I won't control it
Hiding under the bed
In my body, in my head
Why would I bother to conceal this power?
Let it go!
I feel it deep within
It's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I am a monster
I love what I've become
The nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I am a monster
I, I, I am a monster
I, I, I am a monster
My secret side I keep
Threw away lock and key
Won't keep it caged
And I won't control it
And I will let her out
She'll tear them up
And break them down
Why would I bother to conceal this power?
Let it go!
I feel it deep within
It's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I am a monster
I love what I've become
The nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I am a monster
I feel it deep within
It's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I am a monster
I love what I've become
The nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I am a monster
I, I, I am a monster
I, I, I am a monster
I, I, I am a monster
I, I, I am a monster."
I watched in horror as Isa poured purple magic into the air, making the dusty afternoon sky purple. She laughed as a loud thundering sound shook the ground. She looked joyfully at her hands before turning to me for the first time.
"Look what you missed when you didn't join Pitch."
I gritted my teeth and glared at her. "I don't care if Pitch offered me the whole universe, I will never join him. Nor will I destroy an entire city."
"You almost did once," Isa pointed out.
"But I didn't destroy it!" I spat back.
"At least people believe in me." Isa looked around at the people who were still screaming and running from her.
"Jamie believes in me," I replied.
"Only because Jack introduced him to you! Can you do nothing on your own? Even now, you aren't waking up on your own!"
I'm waking up?
I looked around and noticed that everything was fading, and someone was calling my name. "Elsa. Elsa." It started out very faint, but grew louder with every second. "Elsa. Elsa. Elsa!"
My eyes flew open. Jack was hovering over me, his hands shaking my shoulders. "Okay, Jack. I'm up, I'm up. What's wrong?" I asked.
"I came in here to check on you and found this." He gestured to several ice spikes surrounding my bed. "Were you having a nightmare?"
I nodded. "I guess I was." I smiled. Jack must really care about me if he only wanted to check up on me. To my surprise, the ice began to melt and had completely evaporated in only a few seconds.
Jack looked impressed as he looked at the floor. "Did you do that?"
I nodded for a second time. "Whenever I do anything like that, I just think about people I love," I answered without thinking.
Jack's head snapped back to me.
Oh, great, Elsa. Now you've done it.
"Who were you thinking about?" Jack wanted to know.
I hesitated. I didn't want to lie to him, but I didn't want to tell the truth either. "N-no one!" I replied quickly, scooting out of bed.
"It was me, wasn't it? You were thinking of me, weren't you?" he inquired.
"Yes," I murmured. "Is that bad?"
Jack smiled and he seemed to sigh in relief. "No. It's perfect. I feel the same." He floated closer to me.
"You do?"
"Yep." He floated even closer and kissed me, on the lips this time. I wrapped my arms around his neck and closed my eyes. When I opened them again, Jack and I were in a flashback.
Third Person
Elsa sighed as she looked up at the star-speckled night sky. She was exhausted. Sure, being queen was alright for a while, but after two years, she needed a break.
"Why couldn't I just take the day off or something?" she muttered.
"Well, you could," a voice responded. "But who would be queen in your absence?"
"Anna, of course! Wait, who said that?" Elsa looked around for the source of the voice.
"I'm down here," the voice directed.
She peered over the railing of the balcony, and spotted a young man clinging to the stone. He had brown hair and eyes, thin brown pants that didn't quite reach his ankles, a white shirt, and a brown cloak.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"Oh, you know, just hanging out," he responded with a grin.
"How long have you been doing so?"
"Long enough for my arms to start hurting," he replied with a grimace.
"Want help?" Elsa offered.
"Please."
She touched the railing and a rope ladder snaked its way to the newcomer. Slight surprise flashed on his face before he grabbed the ladder.
"So it's true," he said as he swung himself over the railing.
"What's true?"
"That you have ice powers. I came here to see if the rumours were true," he explained. "I didn't think your castle guards would let me see you, so I climbed the wall. Oh, I apologize for not introducing myself." He gave a low bow. "Jackson Overland, at your service. Please call me Jack."
Elsa smiled. "Call me Elsa. And the bow wasn't really necessary. How do you live in the kingdom of Arendelle and not know for a fact that I have ice powers?"
Jack shrugged. "You never know which rumours are true, and which aren't."
"Good point."
A smile slowly spread across Jack's face.
"What?" Elsa questioned.
"I do know of a rumour that is true."
"Oh?" She raised one eyebrow.
"You are very beautiful."
Elsa's face grew hot and she ducked her head. "Thank you."
"You're welcome." He looked over the side of the balcony. "I guess I should be going. See you tomorrow?"
Elsa smirked. "Perhaps. If I'm not too busy."
Jack gave another low bow. "Until then, my queen."
The scene changed. Now, Jack was trying to get Elsa to play with him.
"Come on, Snowflake," he said. "You work too hard. Let's have some fun instead!"
Elsa shook her head. "No, I need to get this done."
Jack peered over her shoulder; it looked like she was reading a letter of complaint.
"No, you don't," he corrected, snatching the paper away. Elsa jumped up and tried to grab the paper, but Jack was too quick for her.
"Jackson! Give it back!" she cried. "I'm a queen! I don't have time for foolishness!"
Jack suddenly reached out and pulled her close, kissing her. "Was that foolish?" he asked.
Elsa looked surprised, then smiled. "No," she murmured.
Jack's eyes turned reluctant. "I should be going. But I'll come again."
"Soon?" Elsa inquired.
Jack smiled. "Of course."
The scene changed again, to Elsa pacing her room, muttering to herself.
"Where is he? He's been gone for months!" She suddenly made up her mind and raced to the nearest castle guard.
He bowed low as she neared. "Your Majesty. What can I do for you?"
"I want you to go to the Overland household and ask them about Jackson. Go now!" she ordered. The guard bowed again, and strode to the stables.
The memories changed again, and it was nighttime.
Elsa rushed up to the guard she had sent. "What news?" she demanded.
"None good, I'm afraid. Jackson was playing with his sister on thin ice and fell through. He didn't show again."
Elsa put a hand to her mouth. "He's dead?"
The guard nodded. "I'm sorry."
Elsa cleared her throat. "Thank you. You may leave." The guard bowed and left. Elsa walked to her bedroom, where she finally broke down. "No, no, no!" she sobbed. "You can't be gone, you can't! You promised to return and I'll wait. I'll wait for you forever, Jackson Overland."
Elsa's POV
I looked to Jack as the flashback faded. "I always knew you'd come back for me," I murmured.
Jack smiled. "I never left you, Snowflake, and I never will."
"I love you, Jack Frost," I confessed.
"I love you too, Snow Queen," he replied.
The song was a changed version of 'Monster' by Skillet. I changed the lyrics because... well... it's Isa. Anyway, let me know what you thought! Jelsa is FINALLY Jelsa! How amazing is that?
I also have good news! I found out that Frozen 2 should be coming out at the end of November of 2019! Still a long way off, but at least it's coming! Everyone hope and pray that Jack is in it!
Okay, I'm gone.
BYYYEE,
Tigerflight
