Chapter 7 – Trauma

The next morning, after searching around the school for hours, I tried to locate Emma. I checked the Great Hall, expecting her to be eating breakfast but she was nowhere to be seen. The next place I checked was the common room. As I walked in I could see a feminine figure sitting on the couch, fire blazing in front of them, sending a orange glow around the room. I got closer to the figure, staying away from the fire.

"Emma?" She turned around as I spoke her name.

"Oh, hi Jack." I sat down next to her, feeling the heat against my face. It felt extremely uncomfortable but this was important. She looked a bit upset, her eyes a bit red.

"Are you okay? I heard about what happened." She sniffed as she smiled lightly at me.

"Yeah, I'm okay, I guess." I could still feel the heat creeping up my back.

"What exactly happened anyway?" Her smile quickly disappeared as she stared at the fire.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-"

"No its okay." She cut me off as she raised her head and sighed.

"I was just walking down the corridor, heading to Potions when this weird shadow appeared in front of me. It started laughing, this horrible cackle. I don't know where it went but It flew past me, leaving an explosion of black sand. It was terrifying." So he just wanted to scare her? Probably testing out whether or not his powers would work here. I noticed that a small tear had slipped out and was not rolling down her face.

"Its okay Emma, everything's going to be alright." I said quietly as I moved my hand on to her shoulder. I stood up quickly in front of her, fire still burning my back and held my hand out. I tried to cover my hand as much as possible with my sleeve as she looked up at me.

"C'mon, lets go get some food." I said with a simple smile.

"Its okay, I'm not hungry."

"Aww c'mon, I'm sure your friends want to see you, they're probably wondering why you're not there." She sighed with a smile as she grabbed my hand.

"Okay, fine." I pulled her up and started to drag her down the corridor and out of the dungeons where our common room was. I twirled her down the corridor towards the Great Hall, dancing around her as she laughed. Occasionally joining in with a random spin here and there. By the time we reached the hall, we where breathless from laughing and dancing. I loved seeing people have fun so cheering Emma up after our talk made me grin with delight.

"Thank's for being here, Jack." She said, panting, as we walked towards our table.

"Glad I could help." I said as I stopped at the end of the table.

"Aren't you eating?"

"Nah, you go on ahead." I said with a wink as she carried on walking towards her friends. She gave me a small wave as I saluted her with a smile. I turned to walk back out the hall when Merida stopped me.

"Well, look who it is. I thought you didn't eat here." She said with a small chuckle.

"I was just escorting Emma, she was a bit upset." I said with a small smile, gesturing over to Emma and her friends.

"Ahh, I see. Where you heading off to now then?" She took a big bite of an apple she was holding.

"Probably back to my common room, do some studying before lessons start, yanno." She nodded in agreement like she understood.

"Well, I guess I'll see you in lesson then?"

"Yup." We smiled at each other as she quickly turned, walking back towards her own table, fiery red hair bouncing around uncontrollably. I laughed at the sight then started to skip down the corridor, so far the day had been good. I'd gathered information about Pitch and made a fellow student smile. Yup, today was going to be great.

"JACK!" I'd spoken to soon. Quickly turning, I saw my potions teacher chasing after me. I let him catch up as he grabbed my arm.

"You're needed in the Hospital Wing, quickly!" I ran after him down the corridor and up the marble stairs. We burst through the doors, running towards one of the beds where the Headmaster stood as well as two other teachers. I slowed my pace as we reached the bed. There was a first year sitting on the bed, staring at the space in front of her. She was wearing yellow on her robes with the Hufflepuff crest. I didn't recognize her but it's not like I knew a lot of people in the school.

"What happened?" I asked as I sat on the edge of the bed.

"No one knows, we heard her scream then she fainted. She hasn't moved since we brought her here, she's been sat there for hours!" One of the professors explained.

"Hmmm.." I pondered before noticing the black specs that covered her robes.

"Pitch." One of the professors gasped behind me as I said it.

"Are you sure?" The Headmaster asked.

"Oh, I'm sure." I replied as I touched her bare leg with my fingers but nothing happened. Not even my ice cold touch could break her trance.

"What's her name?" I asked turning behind me.

"Sarah, I think." The professor who brought me here replied. I stood up on the bed then sat back down directly in front of the traumatized student.

"She just needs to have a little fun." I said with a laugh as I blew my hand, sending a little blue snowflake sailing towards her. The professors watched as the snowflake landed delicately on her nose.

It had to be her nose, it was like my signature. "You don't want Jack Frost nipping at your nose." Jamie's mother had once said to him.

Her eyes started to sparkle blue as she blinked, looking around.

"Hey Sarah." I said with a reassuring smile. She looked confused but didn't say a word.

"Look, its snowing." I told her, pointing at the window, snow falling at my command. She gasped in excitement, looking back at me with a hopeful smile.

"You wanna go have a snowball fight?" I asked eagerly. She replied with a fast nod and a squeal.

"C'mon then!" I jumped up from the bed, pulling her with me. I started running towards the door with her as I glance behind me. The professors where still stood there, jaws agape. I just winked at them as I lead Sarah outside where snow was already beginning to land on the grass. She ran off ahead as I scooped up a ball of snow, blowing it to make it firm then launched it towards Sarah. It hit her back, snow spraying everywhere. She laughed then threw her own ball of snow back at me, hitting me in the arm. We carried on throwing snow and laughing until I heard someone shout my name.

"Hey Jack!" I turned to see a small group of students gathering at the door, including Rapunzel and Hiccup. They'd come out to see what was happening.

"Having all the fun without us?" Hiccup shouted over with a massive grin. I launched in reply then threw a snowball in their direction, hitting Hiccup in the arm. They all started spreading out throwing snow at each other, including Sarah who was happy to see everyone join in. Hiccup started running towards me, snowball in hand, then stopped about 2 metres in front of me.

"Jack! Are you not freezing to death?" He exclaimed, staring at my feet, which where still shoe-less.

"Ha ha no!" I shouted back, throwing a snowball behind him at Rapunzel. She screamed then turned at me laughing. I was so distracted by Rapunzel that I didn't see the snowball coming my way, thrown by Hiccup, that hit me square in the face. It was so unexpected that I lost my balance and fell backwards, laughing. I heard a crack as I landed on the snow, the wind was suddenly stolen from me as a pain had started to grow in my chest. My hand grabbed at my chest as I begged for breath. The last time I had felt this much pain was when Pitch snapped my staff. My wand! I tried to reach into my pocket where my wand was put the pain was too much that I couldn't move. I felt paralyzed It shouldn't be this bad, it wasn't last time. The pain became unbearable, so much that I couldn't help but scream. The pain began to spread, all around my body until it reached my throat. I started clawing at my neck, trying to catch any breath I could but I could feel my self fading. I tried to let out another scream but it caught it my throat, not reaching past my lips but my mouth remained open, begging for air. I curled my self into a ball then stretched out again, trying to rid of the pain. The pain in my chest suddenly stopped as my vision became blurred. The it was darkness, like the world had died around me.

Rapunzel's POV

I ran towards Jack and Hiccup laughing as Hiccups snowball smashed into Jacks face, knocking him over. We where still laughing until we realized that Jack hadn't gotten back up. We both ran over to him, curious, expecting him to jump back up at any moment, pelting us with snow, but as we got closer, we could see what was really happening.

He was grasping his chest, eyes wide with terror. What was happening? The snowball hadn't hit him that hand. I gasped then ran over to his side.

"JACK!" I shouted as I knelt beside him. The white haired boy rolled in the snow, clawing at his chest before his hands shot up to his throat. He started screaming, his blood curdling cry echoing around the field. It sounded awful, everyone else who had been having fun started crowding around us.

"HICCUP! GET THE NURSE!" I shouted behind me to Hiccup, who was frozen to the spot.

"NOW HICCUP!" He ran off into the school as the snow around us started to melt and sink into the ground. I inspected Jacks body, looking for anything that could be causing him so much pain. My eyes skimmed over his pocket, where little wooden pieces where spilling out. His wand had been shattered.

"Oh no.." I said to my self as I looked back at Jack, his body now recoiling like he was having a fit. I was trying to calm his jerking body when suddenly he went very still, he whole being went limp. I knelt over him, looking at his face then suddenly sitting back in horror. His eyes where lifeless, stone-like as he stared at the sky above. Was he dead? No! He couldn't be!

"Jack...please don't leave me." I whispered as a tear rolled down my cheek, landing softly on his limp hand.

So there you go, sorry if its a bit short but I thought it would be a good cliff hanger haha I've had this idea in my head for ages so I'm glad to finally get it down on paper, I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it :)
