Ok guys, yeah I've been lazy again, BUT I bring you chapter 23 lol. Ok DarkTempest, I will get that nightmare underway, I was like not sure before, but lets give it a go, idk thought it would be creepy lol. Anywho I will get this underway here and not waste anymore time lol. As always I do not own any of these characters.
A few days had passed and their ship finally arrived in Icella. Elsa glanced out at the vast kingdom, "Oh Jack, it's just like you said. It's so beautiful." her eyes filled with wonder as she stared off ahead. Jack chuckled and pulled her close, "See, what did I tell you, I told you you would love it. My parents and sister are just dying to met you. I do hope you enjoy this vacation as much as I do. I've been waiting a long time to show you my home." Elsa smiled and leaned against him, "It's wonderful Jack. Like you said, words cannot describe this."
The ship soon met up with the docks and the ship was tied down. Jack and Elsa gathered their belongings and finally got off the ship. Crowds gathered as they welcomed back their Prince. Jack was quick to introduce Elsa to them. All were filled with excitement for the newly engaged couple and how Icella and Arrendelle would be united. Jack led them through the village and there above stood a beautiful castles. It was sculpted and designed with stone and marbel, holding a silver tint to it. A garden was outside to enhance the beauty of the castle and the kingdom.
The guards bowed as both approached the doors. They led the two to the throne room. Along the way, Elsa noticed the colors of the kingdom were blue and silver. The doors opened, inside at the thrones were King Victor and Queen Diana. Victor had brown hair that was slicked back, brown eyes, and a small goatee growing. He wore his silver crown with blue jewels in it, a dark blue jacket adorned with medals and silver epaulets in the shoulders, dark grey pants and black boots. Elsa knew at once where Jack got his good looks from.
Diana was next to her husband, her hair a dark brown that was worn up in a bun, her eyes blue. She wore a royal blue and silver dress that held frost designs around it. Her crown was also silver, but held a single sapphire stone, and a matching silver necklace around her neck. They both smiled as the two entered and Diana was on her feet to embrace her son, "Jack, I am so glad you are back home at last." as she hugged him. Jack hugged her back, "I've missed you too mom. I would like you two to meet Elsa, my fiancee." as he introduced her to Diana and Victor.
Diana smiled, "So this is the girl that has stolen my son's heart. I never thought he would ever settle down, until he mentioned you. Welcome to Icella Elsa." Elsa bowed, "Your kingdom is very lovely your majesties." Victor chuckled, "There's no need for the formalities Elsa. We are family now, well once the wedding happens. Just call us by our names." his voice husky sounding. He turned to Jack, "You've found the perfect girl Jack. She's smart, bright, not to mention beautiful. I am glad you found your other half." he said smiling.
Jack smiled back and soon realized someone was missing, "Mother, where's Emmaline?" he asked. Diana chuckled, "She should be coming down any second now." As soon as she finished, the doors opened to reveal a teen girl that looked fifteen, with brown hair, fair skin, and brown eyes. She wore a light blue dress with white lining and a floral design. She had a small crown with a light blue jewel. She spotted Jack and ran to him, "Jack, I am so glad you're finally back. I've missed you so much!" as she crushed him with a hug.
Elsa smiled as she reminded her of Anna. Jack hugged her, "I've missed you too Emma, but you're seriously crushing me right now." Emmaline let him go, "Oh, I'm sorry." as she turned to see Elsa, "Hi, I'm Emmaline. You must be Elsa." she smiled. Elsa nodded with a smile, "Yes, I am. It's a pleasure to meet the sister Jack has told me all about." Emmaline nodded, "Yep, he's told me about you too. I was so excited when he said he was going to propose and I would have a big sister. I love your dress by the way." Elsa smiled, "Thank you. I love yours too."
Emmaline glanced down, "Really? I thought I just put something random on." she said with a shrug. Diana and Victor laughed, "Darling, you will always look beautiful." Victor said. Diana sighed with content, "Well, now that we have all met each other, the servants shall bring your stuff to your room Jack. I'm sure you will like to share the bed, now that you two are engaged." Jack smirked at Elsa, she gave him a look that said I don't think so. Victor changed the subject, "So Jack, do you plan to show Elsa the kingdom?"
Jack nodded, "Yes father. Come on Elsa, let's get going. There is so much I want to show you." as he took her hand. Emmaline gasped with excitement, "Can I join too please? I've missed you and wanted to get to know Elsa more." Elsa nodded, "Sure. You don't mind, do you Jack?" He shrugged, "Not at all. Come on sis." as the three of them walked towards the exit. Victor held Diana close, Diana smiled, "Such young love Victor. I remember when we were like that." He smiled, "Indeed my love, such a joy to see Jack so happy and soon he will be married. Elsa is the perfect girl for him." as he kissed his wife.
Jack led Elsa through the village as Emmaline chatted away, "It's been so boring since you left Jack. Mom has had me super busy with my studies, but I guess she had her reasons. I managed to make sure I was ahead with them so that way when you returned, I could hang you with again." Jack smiled, "It is good to be back Emma. Don't worry, we will have plenty of time to have some fun, but I would like to have some time alone too." Emmaline nodded, "Of course. So Elsa, how does it feel to be in Icella?" Elsa smiled, "It's finally a relief to be off the boat. I am very excited to be here actually. Jack has told me so much about this place and you and your family. I'm just happy we have finally gotten the chance to come."
Jack held her close to his side, "And I am very glad as well. So where should we go first?" Emmaline piped up, "Oh we could take her to one of the dress shops in town. Get her an official Icella dress." Elsa shrugged, "I wouldn't mind." Jack shrugged along side her, "Alright Em, you lead the way." as they followed her to the dress shop. Emmaline opened the door, the woman inside greeted them with a smile, "Oh my what an honor it is to see you again Princess. I see you have brought your brother, good afternoon Prince Jackson."
Jack smiled, "Good afternoon. Please, no formalities today." The woman smiled, "Of course, what can I help you with." Emmaline smiled, "Jack has brought his fiancee to Icella for the first time. We would like for her to have her first Icella crafted dress." The woman smiled, "Oh what a wonderful occasion this is. Please follow me. By the way, my name is Sonya." as she led them to the back of the shop. Emmaline was glancing all around at the dresses, "This is so exciting, you can even wear it to dinner tonight. Mom and dad have planned a wonderful feast to celebrate the two of you."
Elsa held Jack's hand, he squeezed it gently to reassure her, "It's alright snowflake, everything is going to be fine." kissing her cheek lightly. Sonya pulled out her measuring tape, "Alright my dear, step up here and I will get your measurements. I am sure we will find you something perfect for your first gown." Elsa stepped up on the platform as she took her measurements. Sonya smiled, "How is your visit going so far?" Elsa smiled, "So far, it's been wonderful. We only docked about an hour ago."
Jack took a seat, Emmaline brought out a gown, "How about this one?" Elsa glanced at it, "I don't have the eye for this sort of thing really." she blushed. Sonya chuckled, "Don't worry, you will look beautiful in anything, that much I am sure of. I have a few that would fit you just nicely." as she walked to the back. Emmaline shrugged, "I will be the judge of that." as she followed her. Jack chuckled, "Emma, let the woman do her job." Elsa stepped down, "Are you enjoying yourself Jack?" He nodded, "I'm with you in Icella. I couldn't have asked for anything else."
Sonya came back out, "Here we are. This one was finished earlier this week and has yet to be put out in the store yet. I believe this will suit you just fine." Emmaline came out, "Oh, the colors will go perfectly with your skin tone and eyes." she smiled. Elsa stepped into the changing room, Sonya followed to help her into the gown. Emmaline sat down next to her brother, "This is so exciting Jack. Do you think you will both live here once you are married?" Jack sighed, "We haven't discussed that just yet. When the time comes, we will know for sure." Emmaline frowned, "I hate when you go away for so long Jack. I miss you too much." Jack pulled her into a small hug, "I will always be your big brother Em, no matter where I end up."
Sonya cleared her throat, "Pardon me, but we are ready. Come on out my dear." Elsa stepped out from behind the curtain. Her gown was cream colored and a ice blue bodice. Her skirt was also ice blue and held a cream colored under skirt. The bodice held silver frost spirals marked with crystals to enhance the patterns. The straps hung off her shoulders as it was a matching ice blue. Her braid hung off her left shoulder enhancing her look. Jack smiled as Emmaline squealed, "Oh Elsa, it's perfect. What do you think?" Elsa smiled, "I do like it a lot. Jack?" He got to his feet, "It suits you perfectly. We will take it." Sonya smiled, "Very well then. I am glad we found you a perfect dress. I hope you are pleased." Elsa smiled, "I am, thank you so much."
After they had paid for the gown, Jack held her hand, unable to keep his eyes off her, "You look more beautiful than ever." Elsa blushed, Emmaline giggled, "Jack you're being so weird right now. Come on, we should head back. Mom and dad are probably finishing up the final preparations for dinner." as she walked ahead. Jack smiled, "You will make an astounding queen, and I couldn't have asked for anyone better." Elsa further blushed, "Jack, you flatter me way more than I can ever deserve." Jack shook his head, "Elsa, you are perfect and it is I who doesn't deserve you. Now come, let us get to dinner. Let us enjoy our first night." She nodded, "Ok Jack."
Inside, they walked towards the dining hall. Inside, Diana and Victor were waiting for them. Emmaline was already sitting down as the town entered the room. Diana smiled, "Why Elsa, you looked even more beautiful than we last saw you. Emmaline was just telling us about your visit with the dress shop." Elsa blushed a little, "Yes and thank you. I do love the dress, it was a wonderful time and cannot wait to see more." Jack sat them down next to each other a the table. Victor nodded and the servants took the lead and began to serve.
There was quite the feast laid out before them. A lot of new things Elsa had never seen before, but looked delicious. Everyone began to eat and make small talk. Diana smiled, "So Jack, what are your plans for tomorrow?" Jack shrugged, "I haven't decided yet. There is so much I want to show her, but cannot decide which to do first." Victor chuckled, "There will be plenty of time to do everything. Just enjoy your time here. Perhaps we can all venture out together on a few things, after all I would also like to get to know my new daughter better." Diana nodded, "Indeed. It is so wonderful to have you here with us Elsa as well as a part of our family."
Elsa smiled, "The pleasure is all mine. I do look forward to spending more time here with everyone and getting to know Icella more." Jack held her hand, "I wouldn't have it any other way." as they all continued eating.
After dinner was complete as well as dessert, Jack stood up, "Please excuse us, I know for one that I am exhausted after traveling and walking the town." as he helped Elsa to her feet. Diana nodded, "It's quite alright. We understand, you two get some well deserved rest and we will see you in the morning." Jack went over and kissed his mother on the cheek, "Good night mom, dad." as he hugged his father too. Victor smiled, "Good night Jack." Diana hugged Elsa, "It is so good to have you here Elsa, you rest well." Elsa smiled, "Thank you again." Victor also hugged her before Emmaline budded between them.
Emmaline squeezed, Elsa gasped slightly, "Good night Elsa." as she released her and squeezed Jack next, "You too Jack. Love you and see you in the morning." Jack smiled as he waved them all off and led Elsa upstairs. She followed Jack to the bedroom, he glanced at her, "This is my room here. If you want you are welcome to stay here with me, it not there is a room prepared for you." Elsa thought a moment, "I think it's best I go to my own room tonight." He smiled, "I understand, follow me." as he walked them a door down. He opened it for her, "There we are. At least we won't be too far apart." She smiled, "It's perfect Jack. I will see you in the morning."
He nodded before tugging her close, his lips pressing to hers gently. She sighed as he parted slightly, "Good night my love. Sleep well tonight." She smiled, "You as well my guardian. I love you." He kissed her lightly, "As I love you." as he pulled away. She smiled before she entered her room closing the door behind her. She saw her luggage was in the room and quickly slipped out of her new gown. She pulled on the blue slip of a night gown she had packed and walked over to her bed. She pulled back the covers and slid beneath the silken sheets. Her head hit the pillow as she sighed in relief and from exhaustion. She doused the lights and felt her eyelids shut immediately.
Her blue necklace flickered slightly as she slept before it went dull. She gasped as she felt the familiar sensation of the darkness creep into her mind as she began to dream. She glanced around, it was dark and dreary. She shivered as a chill ran down her spine as she wandered down the halls. It was eerily quiet as the wind whistled through the empty halls. She spotted a door ahead with a dim light coming from beneath it. She felt her body being tugged towards it as it grew closer her. She whimpered when she heard his familiar voice call out to her, "Elsa, come to me. Come to me my queen." his voice hissed.
She wanted to turn away, but felt her hand wrapping around the door knob. Her lip quivered as she turned the knob and the door slowly swung open. She gasped when she saw the familiar bedroom, ahead stood Pitch. He smirked at her, "That's a good girl. Come to your true king." his black magic slithering out from his hands towards her. She felt them coil around her wrists and tug her towards him. She kept her hands in front of her as her body pushed up against his. His lips met her neck, her body shivered, "What do you want from me?"
He snickered against her skin, "You think you're ever going to be free from me? You are my queen, I am your king. Together we will rule side by side. You cannot escape your true fate." She felt his lips nip into her skin, she cringed, "I belong with Jack, my true love. You will burn in your damnation and will never escape." She yelped feeling his teeth sink into her shoulder. He pulled back and glared at her, "That's what you think my sweet. Once they all realize the truth that you are mine and damned along with me as you love to put it, they will leave you. You will be with me and together our heir shall rule against them."
She pushed him off and turned away, "Go fuck yourself Pitch. It will never happen." Pitch snarled as he jerked her back against him. She felt her back pressed against him, his lips to her ear, his hands lingering along her body, "Embrace your fate Elsa, for it was sealed to me thanks to your father. Our son will rule." his hand running along her stomach. She flinched at his touch, his hand grasped her there, "Feel him Elsa, this is what your fate will be." She went to elbow him, but froze, her breath hitching in her throat. He chuckled, "That's it my queen, accept your fate."
Elsa's eyes widened as she stared down where his hand was, she felt her body shake, "N-no, this isn't real." He chuckled as his nose brushed through her hair inhaling her scent, "Oh but it will be my queen. Feel him, I know you do." holding her close to him. She felt tears form, but never fell. She gasped feeling something move inside her again, she felt sick at the thought. She thew her head back against his shoulder, shaking her head, "No! No this will never happen!" as tears slid down. He chuckled as his hand turned her face to look at him, "Oh yes my queen. Indeed it will. I'm coming for you and I will have you." pressing his lips to hers.
Elsa gasped as her body jerked awake. She shot upright in her bed gasping. She crawled out of bed falling to the floor. Tears fell from her eyes as she recalled everything. Her hands went to her stomach, she had felt something move inside her, but now there was nothing. It had felt so real and soon made her sick to her stomach. She hauled herself up and stumbled into the bathroom. She felt herself lose everything and held onto the bucket. Her body wracked with shivers as her body relieved itself. She heard her door open before she heard Jack calling for her, "Elsa? Elsa where are you?" She sat herself up some, as she used the back of her hand to wipe her mouth a little, "I-I'm in here." she croaked.
Jack was immediately in the room, "Elsa, what happened? I heard a loud noise a moment ago, are you okay?" as he saw her on the floor. He helped to to her feet, she held onto him, "Jack, please don't leave me. I need you to stay with me." she pleaded. He nodded and helped her back to the bed, "Of course, are you alright?" She felt her body hit the bed once more, she curled up in Jack's embrace, "Stay with me please." she whispered. Her back was to him as he wrapped his arms around her, "I'm right here Elsa. Whatever happened, it's alright now." She felt her eyelids grow heavy again as she felt safe in his arms. She was too afraid to tell Jack about what she just encountered, but was also overcome by sleep. Jack held her close as her body relaxed in his arms, as she mumbled several times before her breathing evened out for him to stay. Something happened to her, and he would get answers in the morning.
