I am so going to get hate mail at the ends of this.
The flames were rising higher and higher by the second, Elsa and Jack both tugged and pulled at their bonds but it did no good, they were not getting loose, if the two of them didn't find a way to get free quickly they were going to burn to death.
Smoke was starting to fill the inside of the shed, the two of them started coughing uncontrollably as they were starting to lose oxygen fast.
"Jack..." Elsa whispered thinking she wasn't going to make it out alive. "If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have even made it this far, so thank you"
"No, we are not giving up, not yet." Jack said as he forced his hands that was tied behind his back to reach his back pocket and he fiddled to get to the knife in his back right pocket. Once he grabbed the knife he pulled it out and started cutting the ropes tied to his wrist. After a few seconds he cut through the ropes enough to rip them off then he started to cut the ropes around his ankles the same.
After cutting the ropes off his legs he raced toward the direction of Elsa in order to free her. But it was right then that he felt another spell coming on him, forcing him to fall to his knees.
"No, not now!" Jack yelled as he grabbed his forehead.
"Jack, you got to fight it!" Elsa said trying to encourage Jack to get up and continue. "I know it hurts, I know it's painful but if you don't get up both of us are dead. Please Jack, you can do it, you got to fight it, don't let it beat you."
Jack took a couple of deep breaths as he got to his knees and grabbed his knife. Elsa was right, he had to fight it, he had to ignore the pain. No matter how much it hurt, he couldn't let it control him. And there was no way in hell he was going to lose another person he cared for. So despite the pounding pain he felt in his forehead he got on his feet and ran over to Elsa and cut her bounds free and helped her to her feet.
"Thank you." Elsa said once she was on her feet again.
"We aren't out of here yet." Jack said as the two of them ran toward the door. Jack reached for the doorknob but once he tried to twist it he found out the horrifying truth. It was locked.
"Shit, no!" Jack cried as he tried in vein to get the knob to turn. "NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!"
"What are we going to do now!" Elsa asked as Jack banged on the door.
"Is there any other way out?" Jack asked. "Anyway at all?"
"No" Elsa responded as she looked around the shed. The shed wasn't very big at all, about the size of a small apartment, so even through the rapidly rising flames she could see every square inch of the shed. That door was the only way in and out, there was no window's no back door and no secret compartment leading to a basement, that door was the only way in or out.
"That was our only way out," Elsa cried "we are trapped."
"OK I am about to do something," Jack said staring at the door "It is risky and dangerous but it may be our only chance at survival." Jack then shoved Elsa behind him for safety "Get behind me Elsa."
"What are you about to do?"
Jack didn't reply as he took a few steps back and put his arms over his face for protection from the flames as he ran toward the door at full speed, causing the wooden door that was already weak from the flames to brake open, unavailing a hole big enough for Elsa to get through. Elsa was just able to escape outside the shed and join Jack on the outside, before the shed tumbled to the ground.
Jack was laying on the ground panting for air, weak and exhausted from nearly burning to death inside that shed. Elsa joined him on the ground as well, panting for some fresh air.
"You did it Jack." Elsa said as she laid on her back on the dirt "You saved both of us."
"Yeah Elsa," Jack said "I did didn't I?"
It was then as the two of them was catching their breath that Elsa realized something, Hans was heading for her ranch.
"Oh my god Jack we got to hurry!" Elsa said quickly getting up on her feet and headed for her horses. "Hans is going to attack my ranch, he is going to burn it to the ground and kill my family. We got to stop him."
"Elsa they already have a huge head start on us. We will never catch them in time." Jack said getting on his horse.
"We have to! "Elsa said "It is the only way to save my ranch." Then as quick as a flash the two of them rode off on their horses as fast as they could. Preying that they could reach Hans in time.
They couldn't reach them in time though, because as the sun was setting that night Hans and a small group of five thugs were riding up to the ranch armed with torches and guns. As the six of them were riding toward them, the thundering sound of their horses hooves was loud enough to wake Anna and Kristoff from there slumber.
"What was that?" Anna asked a little scared as she heard the sound of the hooves getting louder. Kristoff lit a lamp sitting on the dresser next to their bed and walked over to the window to see what the noise was. Then his eyes went as wide as saucers.
"It's Hans!" Kristoff shouted, "And he's got more men!" Kristoff ran to the closet and grabbed a gun and quickly put a shirt and his shoes on.
"Hans is here! Get your weapons, Hans is here!" Kristoff shouted louder as he was pounding on the doors trying to get the attention of everyone in the house.
The second Hans stepped foot on the ranch he wasted no time on lighting the ground on fire. He got off his horse and set the front yard on fire as two of the others rode up to the corn field, lighting it on fire and letting twenty acres of corn burn as the rest of them let loose the cattle and chased them away with whips.
The smell of smoke drew Anna and Rapunzel out as they looked off to the distance and saw the corn fields burning.
"No!" Anna screamed seeing their cornfields on fire. Anna and Rapunzel each grabbed a bucket and filled it with water then got on their horses and raced to cornfields. But by the time they reached the fields the fire was already out of hand. The fire spread fast and already a fourth of their cornfield was destroyed. Anna ran toward the flame to try to see if she could put out the flame but Rapunzel pulled her back.
"There is nothing we can do about it Anna. I'm sorry, it's gone."
"The livestock!" Anna screamed as she turned to the direction where they kept their livestock, which was about four acres west of the cornfields. "We got to make sure they are OK we can't lose them two."
At the house Kristoff and Flynn ran out on the porch guns drawn and fired at Hans direction as he was riding up closer and closer toward them.
"Get off our land you son of a bitch!" Kristoff screamed as he fired a shot at Hans, just missing him as it zipped by his shoulders
"This ain't your land any more son!" Hans said as he fired at the duo, missing both.
Kristoff and Flynn both stood firm as Hans was inching closer and closer toward the duo but they both refused to move. That was when Hans took out his oil lamp and threw it at a open window to their right, shooting the lamp just as it was entered the window. The lamp exploded on contact blowing the front of the house clear off and sending Kristoff and Flynn flying.
The explosion caught the attention of Anna and Rapunzel and the two of them raced back toward the direction of the house.
"MOM, KRISTOFF!" Anna screamed as she ran toward the house.
"FLYNN!" Rapunzel cried, shortly behind Anna.
As the dust from the explosion started to clear, Kristoff opened his eyes to see that a tree had fallen on him from the explosion and had landed on his right leg. He couldn't move, and his gun was thrown to far out of reach for him to grab. He was flat on his back and from the way he was positioned and with the size of the tree that fell on him there was no way to tell how Flynn was doing.
"Flynn" Hans cried "You OK."
"I... I think so." Flynn said a little unsure as he opened his eyes. His leg was bleeding harshly from the effects of the explosion and the skin from the right side of his face was nearly melted off. But he could miraculously still manage to stand on his two feet, and as long as he was still standing and still breathing, he was not going to give up.
He saw Hans making his way inside the house and with what little energy he had he got his gun and pointed it right at Hans.
"You son of a bitch!" Flynn screamed "Your terror ends now."
Hans didn't even say a word and Flynn didn't stand a chance, with Flynn's vision blurred from the aftermath of the explosion he could barely aim the gun and Flynn got the chance to fire one shot, missing Hans by several inches before Hans took out his gun and fired it at Flynn, hitting him straight in the chest.
Time seemed to slow to a crawl for Flynn as Hans fired four more rounds into Flynn's chest, his life draining from him with each bullet.
"Flynn! FLYNN!" Kristoff screamed as he heard the gunshots. Kristoff suddenly started finding the strength to move the tree off him. After about five seconds Kristoff was able to get the tree off him but the weight from the tree was so strong that even after the tree was off Kristoff couldn't find the strength to walk, the tree had broke his leg.
That was when he saw his best friend from child hood laying on the ground, five bullets stuck in his chest.
"Flynn, no!" Kristoff cried as he crawled on his belly over to Flynn.
"Make sure Rapunzel is safe." Flynn whispered, a tear falling from his eyes as his life drained from him.
"Flynn, please, you got to make it." Kristoff cried as he laid over his friend
"I'm afraid that's not up to me," Flynn said "Tell Rapunzel I love her and these last few years have been the best of my life."
"Flynn... No!" Kristoff wept
"I am and shall always be your friend." Then Flynn closed his eyes for the last time and died there beside Kristoff who was weeping over his friends body.
"NO! NOOO!" Kristoff suddenly heard Rapunzel scream and turned around to see Rapunzel standing behind him her hands over her mouth and tears falling from her eyes. "FLYNN NOOO!"
"Oh Rapunzel, I am so sorry, I tried to save him."
Rapunzel ran over to where Flynn laid and grabbed the body of her deceased husband and wept in his arms.
"Where's mother." Anna asked, scared.
"Still inside, Hans is in there to. You got to save her!" Anna then ran inside the burning house to try to find her mother, and as she was searching she swore that when she saw Hans she was going to murder him and avenge both her father and now Flynn's death.
Hans smashed open the bedroom of Brittany Winter's bedroom and saw that she was trapped under her nightstand due from the explosion. She laid helplessly unable to defend herself as Hans marched up to her and point her gun at her forehead.
"Mother no!" Anna screamed as she reached her mother's bedroom. She didn't have time to fire though before Hans swung his gun and struck Anna over the face, knocking her to the ground and taking her gun from her. The force from Hans's blow was enough to prevent Anna to get up, and as her head was spinning she laid on the ground helplessly unable to help save her mother.
"Anna sweety close your eyes I don't want you to see this." Brittany said as Hans pointed his gun at Brittany's forehead and one round fired point blank into her forehead.
"NOOO" Anna cried "Mother no...!"
Hans then walked up to Anna and since he was out of bullets he struck her over the head with the back of the gun knocking her out.
Hans then walked out the same way he came and saw Kristoff and Rapunzel still on the ground mourning for Flynn. The two of them spotted Hans and put up there hands in defense. Hans didn't do anything to them however, he done his duty, so did the rest of his men, Hans just walked past them and got on his horse and rode off with his men.
"Anna!" Rapunzel gasped, realizing that Anna was still inside the burning house, she then ran inside and saw Anna laying unconscious on the floor next to her mother's bedroom. Rapunzel grabbed her and turned to look at Mrs. Winters who she saw was already decease and was beyond help. Rapunzel carried Anna outside and laid her on the ground as she and Kristoff looked and saw their house and their whole livelihood burn to the ground.
They failed, Pitch had everything taken from them because they refused to surrender to him. He had won.
R.I.P Flynn and Mrs. Winters.
I know I am going to be hated on for this chapter so go ahead and lay it on me. I didn't originally plan to kill Flynn that was basically a last minute decision. The story from here on out is going to be darker and more dramatic so I wanted this chapter to be basically the turning point to send it into motion. Sorry if I am making you cry but I wanted this story to be dark, I wanted it to be more dramatic and depressing, and I am not going to hold back just because you like a certain character. This story will be dark from here on out so prepare yourselves for that.
Anyway if you still liked what I did leave a review and if you want to kill me and send me hate messages please leave a review anyway as well.
Till next time
