Jack's POV*
"Elsa!" I cried out as I woke up. I looked around me, expecting her to be right there in front of me, but she wasn't. Instead, I was sitting up on the snowy ground of the castle's back courtyard. Everything was quiet and I didn't see anybody around. I looked up at the castle, the lights were all turned off, as if no one was there. I stood up from the ground, brushing the snow off of me.
"Is anybody here?!" I called out. There was no reply. Suddenly, the snow underneath my feet quickly melted. leaving no trace of ice or snow, as if it had never even happened.
"Weird." I said. I kept walking around hoping to find someone out here 'till I heard a loud noise behind me. I turned around to watch as the castle's back doors opened and Elsa stepped out. She was dressed in her usual beautiful blue dress that she always wore.
"Elsa!" I called out to her, racing towards her. I opened my arms to hug her, but instead of receiving a hug, I received a mouthful of snow. I looked up and realized I had face planted onto the snowy ground. I quickly turned to look behind me and watch as Elsa kept on walking away from me and towards the garden. I then realized that I had gone right through her. I got back up and raced back towards her.
"Elsa?" I asked, reaching out to touch her shoulder, but watched as my hand went right through her.
"What's going on?" I thought to myself. I began to panic.
"Am I dead?!" I asked myself. "No, no, no! I can't be dead! I just can't!"
I turned to look at Elsa, and watched as she walked up to her flowers, looking at them with a smile 'till she got to the red roses, her favorites. She then trailed her finger around them and I watched as she accidentally froze one. She stepped back to look at it and touched it again, only 'causing it to freeze even more 'till it was encased in snow. She looked down at it with a disappointed look on her face. She then looked down at her hand, and sadly sighed.
I tried to get close to her as I possibly could to try and reach out to her once more, but was stopped when we both heard a loud noise behind us. We turned to look around to see what it was and I recognized it immediately. It was a portal, just like the one I would always travel in when I'd come here. I then watched as I stepped out of it.
"What the heck?" I said, walking up to the other me. I waved my hand in front of his face, but he didn't seem to be able to see me either.
"Jack!" Elsa yelled out at us.
"Hi Elsa!" the other me said. "I got your letter."
"Oh, I'm glad you did!" she said.
"What's going on?" I asked myself. Now this was getting really weird. I watched as the other me and Elsa continued to talk. I saw her gesture towards the castle. They began to walk away, when the other me stopped to look at the frozen rose. He walked up to it to get a closer look.
"Did you do that?" The other me asked.
"Yeah, I did." Elsa responded with a nervous look.
"Do you want me to show you how to unfreeze it?"
"Do you know how to?"
"Yeah! Here, just touch it with your finger."
I watched as Elsa touched the rose once more. Instead of unfreezing it, it formed spikes that protruded all around it.
"I can't do it! I'm only making it freeze up more!" She cried out, backing away from the other me and the rose.
"It's okay! It's okay! Don't worry!" He said, reaching out to her. "Here, I'll help you." He gestured for her hand, and she slowly let him hold it. He led her back towards the rose, still holding on to her hand, and let her touch it again. I watched as the rose suddenly began to unfreeze, releasing it from it's icy coffin. Elsa had a huge smile on her face, happy to see what she had done. I walked up to get a closer look and saw that the rose was no longer red. It was now white. (Author's Note: I decided to changed the original blue color that I was going with for the rose to white.)
I continued to look at the rose, now remembering what day it was. It was the first day I had came to see Elsa all by myself when she requested to see me here in Arendelle just a few days after our meeting at the royal party. I turned to look back at them and saw that they had vanished. The snow that had melted just earlier, was now back on the ground. I looked back at the rose, seeing it was still there. I reached out and plucked it from its place. I looked closer at the rose, wondering what it was that this meant. Suddenly, I was overcome with images of me and Elsa together. All of our memories that we both shared were being shown to me.
"Jack! Come back to us!" I faintly heard North shout out.
"I can see his eyes moving underneath his eye lids. Is he dreaming?" Tooth asked.
"Oh, he better not be dreaming right now!" cried Bunny. "There is no time for that!"
I ignored their calls, keeping my eyes on the rose. Everything around me disappear 'till it was just me alone. Then, before it became dark once more, the last image that I saw was me holding the rose in front of Elsa's face, her eyes blue once more. Then, everything disappeared.
I then felt someone slap me across the face, which really stung, but I still didn't wake up.
"You better open them eyes again before I give you a real pounding!" Bunny yelled. Now, that made me wake up. I rose from where I was laying, breathing heavily.
"He's back!" I heard Tooth shout.
I could feel someone's arms around me and I looked up to see it was North. His usual bright face was red and his eyes were bloodshot. I could see faint tear streaks on his face. I grinned at him, and he smiled back at me.
"You saw something didn't you?" He asked. "Something very important, right?" He helped me sit up on his huge coach that he had in his office. I noticed I was shaking uncontrollably, and I was starting to get cold. North noticed, and took off his massive fur coat and draped it around me, helping me get warm. I nodded my head.
"Yes. Yes I did." I said.
"Well, what was it?" Bunny asked.
Before I explained to them what happened in my dream, I apologized to them.
"I'm sorry for what happened earlier." I said to them. "I knew you guys were going to want to follow me and try to help me out, but I needed to talk to Elsa for myself, and I also feared that you guys were going to get hurt. I just couldn't bear to think of anything happening to you guys, that I decided to cut off your means of being able to follow me. I'm sorry for shattering your snow globe North. I was just wanting to keep you all safe. You guys really matter a lot to me, and I didn't want to lose any more of you." I said, referring to Elsa.
Bunny walked up to me, and for a second, I thought he was going to scold me for my selfish act earlier and for almost getting myself killed. I braced myself for it, but it never came. Instead, he hugged me. It was the first time he's ever done that with me. He then pulled away after a few seconds.
"I know we may not get along at times." He said. "But you are a Guardian, and our friend, and we're here for each other no matter what. If I were in your position, I would've done the same thing to keep you all safe. We're mates, and mates got to stick together, am I right?" He beamed at me. I nodded my head a yes.
"Now, explain to us about your dream." Bunny said to me.
I told them about the white rose in the castle's back courtyard that I had help Elsa unfreeze on the first day that we both started to work together, and how the visions of the times we've spent together flooded my mind.
"Then, could it be that the rose is an act of true love?" suggested Tooth, who looked at Sandy, remembering what he had said earlier.
"It might possibly be." North said, agreeing with her.
"Then we have to get to Arendelle as soon as possible!" cried out Tooth.
"But how are we going to get there though?" I asked, remembering how I threw North's snow globe against the wall, his only mean of transportation.
"No worries! I always keep a spare hidden just in case!" North said. He walked over to his desk and opened one of the drawers. He fished around for a while before finally pulling out a snow globe that looked similar to the one that he had and to the ones me and Elsa had.
"Well then, what are we waiting for?" asked Bunny, arming himself with his weapons. "We got a wedding to crash and a princess to save!"
"What do you say Jack?" North grinned at me, the magic dust in the snow globe slowly began glow and swirl around inside the case.
"Let's go!" I yelled.
