Frozen Guardian


Jack groaned as he rolled over onto his shoulder and blinked against the darkness. "Where am I?"

"Jack!" Pale blonde hair dotted with tiny snowflakes came into view and his eyes focused on the clear blue of Elsa's.

"Hey Snow Queen, you okay? What happened?"

"Oh Jack," she said tearfully. "I'm so sorry! I almost got you killed!"

"Hey now don't cry. I'm fine see?" He sat up and waved his arm around until something caught his eye. His arm was no longer a deathly pale, but had a healthy pinkness to it. He turned his hands over and stared at them. "Elsa, what happened?"

She looked at him and whispered, "You saved my life. I was almost crushed by that chandelier. I don't remember anything after that; I hit my head. When I woke up you looked different. Your hair is brown now, you aren't cool to the touch anymore and…"

"And…?"

"We can see you." Jack whirled around and saw the prince who was supposedly Anna's fiancée. "And you would be Hans. When did you first begin to see me?"

Hans studied him closely and said, "When Queen Elsa was suddenly pushed from under the chandelier, we saw a spray of blood. At first we thought she was injured, but then a white shadow slowly began to materialize in front of us. It was you, but you hair was snow white and your skin was as pale as death. Both you and the Queen were unconscious, so we had a physician patch you up and gave you some decent clothes."

Jack blinked and looked down. He was wearing a plain linen shirt with brown pants and boots. He lifted his shirt and felt the bandages wrapped around his torso. "I guess the chandelier nicked me."

Hans' face twisted like he was about to be sick. "Most men would not call that injury a nick." He shook his head. "In any case, on our way back to Arendelle, your complexion began to regain a healthier color and the white of your hair became a dark brown." He frowned. "You were gripping a broken shepherd's crook when we found you. Are you a reindeer herder?"

"What? No, of course not." Jack wasn't looking at Hans anymore. He was studying Elsa, searching for injuries. "Are you okay Elsa?"

Before she could answer, Hans made a sound of startled surprise. "Such familiarity with the Queen! Show some respect!"

Jack gave him a slightly disgusted look. "Oh, like you did when you shackled her?"

"That was not my idea." Hans turned his attention to Elsa. "Queen Elsa…"

"Why did you bring me here?"

Hans looked a little offended. "I couldn't just let them kill you."

"But I'm a danger to Arendelle." She looked at him pleadingly. "Get Anna!"

Hans frowned. "Anna has not returned." Jack looked up sharply. "But she and Kristoff left hours before you came to the ice castle."

"Well she didn't come here." He frowned. "Who's Kristoff?" He shook his head. "Queen Elsa if you would just stop the winter…Bring back summer, please."

Elsa look like she was about to cry. "Don't you see? I can't. You have to tell them to let me go!"

Hans sighed. "I will do what I can. Shepherd, come. I will see to it you are taken care of."

Jack glanced at Elsa. "Can I have a minute? Your Grace?"

Something flashed in Hans' eyes that made him frown, but he only replied, "I shall wait in the hall shepherd."

Jack pushed himself to his feet and reached out to touch her shoulder, but she flinched away. "No! You're normal now! Don't touch me! I don't want to hurt you…"

"You won't hurt me Elsa. But I have something to tell you." He came a little closer, but this time, he didn't try to touch her. "When you were born, I was flying overhead, on my way to see Bunnymund- no don't ask who that is, we don't have time- and the Man in the Moon- again, no time for explaining- and he told me to go to the palace. You had just been born, but your parents were grieving."

Elsa looked shattered. "Because I was born with powers?"

"No! No, that wasn't why. You…you weren't breathing." Elsa looked completely shocked. "I…wasn't…"

"I was sad for your parents. Loss of life is always sad. So I leaned over and placed my hand on your head. I don't really know how I did it, but some of my magic… I may have accidentally slipped you some."

"You cursed me?!"

"No! I blessed you! It's not a curse!"

Elsa looked horrified. "You did this?"

Jack winced. "Elsa look. I saved your life. I wouldn't change that if I could." She didn't say anything for a minute, and then she began, "Jack, I—"

"Minute's up, shepherd. Come along." Hans had poked his head in and was looking at him, vaguely annoyed. Jack walked to the door and followed Hans up the stairs.

"Uhh, Your Grace? Do you know where my staff is?"

"It's over here." Hans handed him the broken staff and Jack ran his hand through his hair. "Thank you. I guess"

Hans opened his mouth to say something, but someone down the hall yelled, "Princess Anna has returned!"

Hans opened the first door he came to and pushed Jack inside. "Stay here. I will see to you later."

Jack opened his mouth and then glared as the prince slammed the door. "Whatever jerk wad."
