Chapter 12: Facing Pitch
Elsa's POV
I nervously looked out at the ballroom through a curtain. There were so many people. All of them were here for me.
"He's not there." Grandmama said as she walked up to me.
"Well I know he's not… It's just… Who's not there, Grandmama?"
"A remarkable young man. Who found a music box."
"No. He's probably spending his reward money as fast as he can."
Grandmama pointed at the people.
"Look at them dance. You were born into this world of jewels and fine titles. But is this what you really want?"
"Of course it is. I found out who I am. I found you and Anna."
"Yes you did find us. And you will always have us. But is it enough?"
She hugged me. "My darling. He didn't take the money."
"What? He didn't."
"Elsa, I want you to know, seeing you alive, seeing the woman you've become, brings me joy I never thought I could feel again."
She gave me a kiss on the forehead. I turned away. My mind was on Jack.
Grandmama then said. "Whatever you choose, we will always have each other."
I turned to see her, but she was on the other side of the curtain. I pulled aside the curtain and got ready to step through, but something inside stopped me.
Jack didn't take the money. But why? He dragged me from Arendelle to Paris for that money. And when he was rewarded, he didn't take it.
Just then I heard Olaf bark. I turned to see him run out into the gardens.
"Olaf?"
I ran after him. The farther I got into the gardens maze, the more unsettling it became.
I kept following Olaf's bark. I then realized as I turned a corner, the path was cut off.
I was getting extremely lost. But then I heard a whimper. I looked to see Olaf.
"There you are." I said as I picked him up.
"Elisia." I heard faintly.
It was chilling. I just started to run.
"Elisia."
I kept running. But then I suddenly tripped and fell. I got up and found myself on the Pont Alexandre III.
Then I heard the voice again.
"Well, well, well, this is very exciting. Princess Elisia Romanov of Arendelle. In the flesh."
I looked up to see a face that looked familiar.
"Your royal highness. Look at what ten years has done to us. You, a beautiful young flower, and me, a rotten corpse." The man said
"That face." I whispered.
"Last seen at a party like this one."
"The curse."
"Followed by a night on the ice. Remember!"
The man pointed his hand at me. A blast of magic came from it. I quickly used my powers to counter it.
He dropped the blast. I remembered him.
"Pitch Black!"
"Yes it is I. Pitch Black. Destroyed by your despicable family. But what goes around comes around."
Black smoke came from his amulet. Little bats appeared and started tearing my dress. They finally disappeared.
"I'm not afraid of you."
Pitch just laughed.
"I can fix that. Care for a swim under the ice!"
He then used his powers to cut a chunk of the bridge off. The piece I was on started to fall into the river.
"Prepare to die, Elisia. No one can save you now."
"Wanna bet?"
I looked up to see Jack flying towards Pitch. He threw an ice blast at him. Pitch fell over.
Jack then flew down to me.
"Jack! You can fly!?"
"And have ice powers." He said.
He was trying to get me up to safety.
"How sweet. Together again for the last time." Pitch yelled as he casted his powers at Jack.
Jack was thrown to the side and Pitch created a giant winged monster to keep him away from me. I climbed to the edge of the bridge.
"Jack!" I said as I reached out to him.
Pitch came running over.
"Watch out!"
Pitch grabbed the back of my hair and pulled me close.
"Dos Vidaniya, your highness."
Pitch then dropped me. I grabbed on to the ledge before I could fall in.
"Hold on." Jack shouted as he threw an ice blast at the monster.
"Finally one of the last Romanov deaths! I'll say hello to Anastasia for you." Pitch laughed as he got ready to blast me. But he jumped back with pain.
Olaf was biting at Pitch's leg. As I tried to climb up, he shot a creature at Olaf.
I was struggling to get back up on the bridge. A rock fell into the river as I pulled myself up.
Pitch laughed. "Long live the Romanovs."
I got myself up. "Right," Pitch heard me and looked surprised. "I couldn't have said it better myself.
I ran at him and tackled him. I tried to get the amulet off of him. The string broke and fell to the side. Pitch threw me off and went to grab it.
"Olaf, fetch."
Olaf grabbed the amulet from Pitch. He quickly brought it to me.
"No! Give it back." Pitch said.
I blasted the amulet. The monster fighting Jack fell apart. The monster had a rock that he dropped as he was being destroyed. Jack was hit in the head.
I gasped. "This is for Jack." I shot another blast at the amulet
Pitch rushed me. "Give it back."
I shot a blast at him to keep him back. "This is for my family." I blasted the amulet again.
"I'll tear you to pieces!" Pitch said as he tried to rushed me again. I shot another blast at him.
I then started to form a big ice blast that would destroy the amulet.
"And this is for you. Dos Vidaniya."
"No!"
I shot the ice blast. The amulet shattered into nothing.
I quickly ran over to Jack, hoping he was alright.
Pitch looked up and screamed. A dark magic blast hit him. He quickly decayed into dust.
Pitch was gone.
The story is almost complete.
