TPATFan16: The person behind all of this will be revealed but not until later. I kinda have something sinister (well kind of sinister) planned. Hehe. Is it Hans or Pitch? Hmm, maybe you will just have to wait and see. This chapter sorta answers that question anyway.

olimacproductions: Wait, what? Yes it is winter here and yes it has been raining (that is kinda what happens in winter lol) but I meant that in summer it rains quite badly. Glad the Typhoon has ended.

iheartjelsa: Don't worry. Got quite a bit of drama planned for the future.

Chapter 10: Returning Home

The next few days past in a bit of a haze for Elsa. She managed to get back on her feet in no time at all and soon she was back to her usual self. There was no new information about the poisoning. No one had been caught or come forward with any information about it. It seemed as if the poisoner as simply vanished into thin air. All the servants who had been working that night had been questioned and yet any of them could be lying. Who else but a servant would have access to the champagne bottles? But still there was no evidence pointing to anyone in particular.

As for who the intended target was supposed to be, Elsa didn't have a clue. She didn't think she was the target but there were still hundreds of theories. Elsa initially thought that the target may have been the ambassador as he had been the first to be poisoned as to die but that didn't mean anything. It could have been pure chance that the ambassador drank the poison first or that he had taken enough poison to be the first to die.

Elsa thought that perhaps that someone had a secret enemy that no one knew about or maybe someone had vendetta against someone else. Perhaps one of the people at the table poisoned someone else to get revenge on someone and they poisoned everyone else to throw off suspicion? Maybe they even poisoned themselves to further throw off suspicion? Elsa didn't know. There were too many variables and scenarios for her to like just one of her many different ideas. If the truth be told, it could have been anyone and Elsa didn't like that one bit. Elsa could only think of three people who hated her enough to try something like this and they were highly unlikely.

The first person on her list was her crazy ex-boyfriend Theodore. But Elsa knew that Theodore wouldn't try hurting her. She guessed that if it was him, his target would have been Jack. Theodore was pretty much convinced that she and Jack were involved in some affair while they were dating which was of course, very untrue although the kiss they had at that Christmas party would make a good case against it but in Elsa's opinion that was just a mistletoe kiss and nothing more (although the kiss would eventually lead to Elsa realising that she was in love with Jack) and anything that else that happened between her and Jack happened after she and Theodore had broken up. But Elsa didn't think that Theodore was the poisoner. He was in England and way away from them. She didn't think Theodore would be clever enough to pull the poisoning off.

The next person would be Anna's crazy and psycho boyfriend Hans. But Hans didn't really have anything against Elsa well besides the fact that Elsa helped get him expelled from HNU. Hans also managed to ambush her as well as Jack while they were enjoying a date. But then again Hans had something against Jack for some reason and they were really helping out Theodore as well since they both hated Jack and Jack had been at the dinner alongside Elsa. But Hans also couldn't have done it in Elsa's opinion. The last she heard, Hans was still in the Southern Isles facing punishment from his older brothers. However Hans did have the ability to have someone poison them on his behalf. So it could be Hans. Now Elsa wasn't so sure.

The last person on her list was Hans' loyal but psycho partner-in-crime flunky named Pitch. Pitch hated Jack just as much as Hans' did and Elsa didn't know why and nor was she likely to find out. They had some vendetta against Jack and Jack didn't even know why. Elsa did remember Jack telling her that Pitch and Hans had tried to recruit him but he refused. Maybe that was the reason. They just couldn't accept that Jack said no. Elsa shrugged to herself. It could be anything. Elsa had been thinking that maybe Pitch was the person that Hans had poisoned them all but Elsa would think she would remember seeing Pitch. If Pitch had indeed been there, he was well hidden. Pitch was the only one that she wasn't sure about. She had arguments for and against if doing it. She didn't think Pitch would be able to create the poison that had been used. Experts said that the poison was homemade, lethal and would take a chemistry genius to make. Elsa didn't think that Pitch or Hans was that good. But then again they both hated Elsa. Elsa didn't know.

Everyone else was as clueless as she was. Not one person could think of a single good reason that had no reasons against it for one person. Everyone had been questioned. Elsa had been questioned the day before and she gave Pitch, Hans and Theodore as the people who Elsa said hated her but she also said that she didn't know if they did have a hand in this nor not. Elsa couldn't see why they would poison a whole group of people. Elsa, yes, Jack, yes but everyone else? It was just too confusing.

At that very moment, Elsa was standing by her bed. She was zipping up her bags. The day she had woken up, Jack had brought her things that Elsa would need such as toothbrush, hairbrush etc. etc. Elsa was being discharged today. It seemed as if the poison hadn't done any long term damage and that Elsa should just keep it easy for a bit. Anna was standing next to her while Erik spoke with their doctor. Erik came back into the room and grinned. He told them that everything was good and they could go.

Elsa was heading back to Arendelle. She hated that her trip had to be cut short because some idiot poisoned a whole group of people but Erik thought it may be the best thing for them to do. It had really freaked him out to see Elsa lying unconscious and not moving. On their way back to Arendelle, they were going to drop Anna back at HNU. According to a couple of her friends, she was getting quite far behind but Elsa knew that Anna didn't really care about coursework the same way Elsa did.

"So let's hit the road," Erik said rubbing his hands together and looking at them all expectantly.

"Not until Jack comes," Elsa said a little stubbornly.

"Well we said we were leaving at ten and it's now," Erik checked his watch. "three minutes past."

"He said he would be here."

Erik opened his mouth to say something but Anna cut across him.

"We can wait a little longer can't we Erik? Elsa wants to say goodbye," she said.

"Alright," Erik said.

Elsa knew that Erik was in a hurry to leave but Elsa didn't want to leave without saying goodbye to Jack. But Erik waited without any more complaints. The minutes ticked by. Elsa knew that Erik was thinking that Jack wasn't going to show but Elsa knew he was. Sure enough, ten minutes later, Jack showed up panting. It looked as if he had ran through the hospital.

"Sorry, traffic was a nightmare," he said.

"That's okay," Elsa said smiling.

"We'll be down by the car," Anna said dragging Erik out of the room.

Elsa and Jack watched them leave the room. Once they had left Jack turned to Elsa.

"Are you really going back home?" he asked.

Elsa nodded. Elsa noticed that Jack looked quite disappointed at this. He, like her, wished that she could stay. Jack and Elsa said their goodbyes to each other before Jack gave her a kiss before Elsa had to leave. Elsa and Jack hurried down to the car together. They gave each other one last kiss before Elsa got into the car and her driver drove them.

"Well at least you get to see him at Christmas," Kristoff said who had noticed Elsa staring out of the window at the fading figure that was Jack.

"Yeah, that's true," Elsa sighed.

"I'm just upset that we didn't get to spend more time with our boyfriends," Anna said.

Kristoff was unfortunately returning to Arendelle alongside Erik and Elsa. Kristoff felt that Anna had been distracted enough and should really return to her studies. An opinion that Elsa agreed with but Anna didn't. They all wanted Anna to graduate and not have to spend an extra semester catching up on work she missed out on. Anna accepted this. She wanted to graduate as much as everyone else wanted her to. She loved it at HNU but she couldn't stand the work she had to.

The driver drove them to the airport in no time at all. They went through security before they board their private plane. Elsa was quiet the entire way to HNU. She had a book and she was happily reading it. She was glad that she had it to distract herself from what was going on. As Elsa flicked through her book, City of Heavenly Fire, she did notice that Anna was giving her a few looks. Elsa sighed. She knew that Anna had been extremely worried about her. Elsa had been out of it for a couple of days after all.

The plane landed in Switzerland and Anna got out. Erik had called ahead and ordered her a car. Anna and Kristoff had a thoroughly non-verbal goodbye before Anna waved to all of them and jumped into car. Elsa then buckled up and was ready for the plane to take her back to Arendelle. The plane started to take off and it wasn't long afterwards that the plane was in the air. Elsa returned to her book and had finished it just in time.

In the distance, Elsa could see the familiar sight that was Arendelle. Elsa didn't know why but she kind of felt a little relief to be back home even though there was a great pain in her chest from missing Jack. The plane landed and soon Elsa climbed out of the plane and into the car. The driver greeted her with a bow before Elsa, Erik and Kristoff climbed into the car and headed home.

When Elsa arrived back to the castle, everyone looked relieved to see her. Elsa somehow managed to shake everyone off as she was quite exhausted from the trip home. Elsa managed to get to her bedroom and collapse on her bed feeling the familiar comfort of it. Elsa closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

Anna soon saw the familiar buildings of HNU come into view. Anna thanked the driver and he bowed to her in response before helping her with her bag. Anna swung the bag over her shoulder and headed up to reception where she checked back into HNU. The lady grinned and said that Anna could go. Anna smiled back before she headed back to her dorm room. She turned the key in the lock and was quite surprised to see all her friends there waiting for her to come home. Anna had texted a couple of them saying she was returning today but she didn't expect so many of them to be there.

"So what happened?" Aurora asked instantly.

"Is Elsa okay?" asked Tiana.

"What's going on?" Jasmine asked.

Many of Anna's other friends starting echoing the same questions. Anna had to clamp her hands over her ears. All their yelling was giving her a pounding headache.

"Enough," she yelled and they all fell silent. "Thank you."

"What happened?" Tiana asked in a calm voice.

"Everything is fine," Anna explained. "Elsa is alright but I'm very tired and so I'm going to go to bed. I'll talk to you all in the morning."

They all looked disappointed but none of them said anything as Anna headed into her bedroom and closed the door behind her. Anna breathed a sigh of relief as she threw down her bag on a chair and collapsed on her bed. She could hear footsteps outside her door and wondered if they were Tiana. The footsteps paused outside her door as if the person they belonged to was debating whether or not to go in. Eventually the footsteps walked away to Anna's relief. She was very tired. Anna felt her eyes shut and before she knew it, she was fast asleep.
