17 Cold Body
This chapter is written in Jack’s point of view. The music video fits to Jack's feelings through the past months after Elsa made him to leave.
“Oi! Jack!” I turn around and see Kangaroo boiling up. “Yeah, what is it?” I sigh to him as he is pointing me with his boomerang. “This may sound odd mate but I really need you to do your job!” He is murmuring, “Either unfreeze the ground for Easter or just make an ACTUAL winter!” I roll my eyes as he continues, “This slushy weather is killin' me. What is buggin' you?”
Bunnymund is now pressing my chest with his boomerang and I narrow my eyes because I feel annoyed. “Maybe I just wanted a softer winter this time?” I move the boomerang aside and turn my back at him. Then I hear a squeaking sound while walking away. “Sit!” Bunnymund yells and I fell backwards as a chair hits my legs from behind. He just kicked a chair towards me and as it hit me I lost my balance. “Hey!” I yell to him but then my eyes widen as North comes in front of me. His arms are crossed and I can see his tattoos of Naughty or Nice showing.
“Time for a Guardian intervention,” I see how everyone comes to surround me as North speaks to me with his Russian accent. A yeti wraps his hands around my waist so I am now stuck against the chair. This time North sounds more serious than before. I held my hands in the air and gesture them to take it easy. “I am fine, see?” I smirk to them and hear when Tooth flies next to me. “No, you’re not Jack.” She sounds worried and my heart feels a sting.
“Alright. What makes you guys feel that way?” I lean my chin to my fists that hold my staff in front of me. “Where is the fun Jack?” North asks me and I chuckle. ”The kids are having fun, right?” I smile to them but they all are waving their heads from side to side. “No?” I whisper. ”They are! But..” Tooth starts and then Bunnymund speaks loudly, ”You’re not havin' fun Jack.”
“I am!” I laugh to them but then Sandy shows me images of me. In all of them I am wearing a hood over my head and am looking like a body without a mind. Just freezing things. “See!” North points at Sandy. ”Sandy has been observing you!” He furrows his eyebrows as I touch my head. I didn’t even realize until now that I had been wearing a hood over my head.
I clear my throat, “So? What does it matter?” Tooth hugs me, “It matters Jack. Fun is you.” I blush and push her away. ”Yea, yea. I will try to have more fun in the future.” Actually I don’t know how, before it just came naturally and I guess I have some trouble with now. I look at everyone and decide to stay silent about my sudden feeling of not knowing myself. “You’ve been strange after coming back from Arendelle!” Bunnymund glanced at me and tried to read me. I hum as a response and cross my hands over my body.
“You’re still not telling what happened?” Tooth flew in front of me and my mouth opened to an “o” for a moment but then I closed my eyes and shook my head to sign no. “You can trust us,” Tooth was pleading for me to tell which made me sigh. “No.” I didn’t want to tell them what had happened.
Suddenly I heard a bell ringing and I opened my eyes while turning my head towards the sound. All the others did the same. Sandy was holding an elf and waving it in the air so the bell would ring. He seemed annoyed when he pointed up. It was Manny, he had something to say. Moon was shining bright.
“Jack.” Moons dreamlike sound echoed in North’s workshop. Everyone startled since Manny doesn’t speak that often. They all stared at me with surprised looks. I watch up to the moon and feel the moons beating presence. “ Go to her.” It sounded like a whisper from a faraway place. ”What?” I narrow my eyes. “Go to her,” Manny repeats and I glance at everyone. ”She needs you,” my heart skips a beat when I realize what Manny is meaning. “Let me go!” I yell and blast cold wind around me. Everyone flies few meters back and the yeti lost its grip from me. “I need to go!” I yell while I run and jump to air.
”Please wind, to Arendelle. Faster than ever before.” I whisper while wind carries me to Arendelle. As soon as I arrive to castle I fly inside from her window. She is not in her room so I blast the doors open to corridor and run to find her sister. I hear Anna’s voice from downstairs and I fly there quickly. As I catch my breath I hear Anna talking to some guards. “Go and look for her. From everywhere!” She is panicking and I see how Kristoff takes her to his embrace. “Find my sister!” Anna is sobbing and I realize that Elsa is missing.
I fly back to her room. Maybe she is kidnapped or worse? No, No..I can’t be thinking these sort of things. I look outside from her window. Then my eyes look down and I see a pile of snow beneath her window. There are tracks and I smirk when I see how those tracks go towards the forest. She must be there.
I focus the winds power so it would give me as much speed as possible. I feel the wind moving my clothes while it blows around me. Then a blast and I am on my way. I see a blizzard in the middle of the forest. She must be there, she must.
As the blizzard wears off I hear a scream. That scream made me fall down, from tree branch to another until I was laying on the ground. I had just heard someone screaming my name. It was Elsa, quickly I jump up to stand. I start to run through the forest and I don’t care when smaller branches cut my cheeks when they hit my face. Soon I am watching at the pond. The tracks end there.
I glance in every direction until I saw it. The pond’s ice looks odd, in the middle of it there seems to be different type of ice. It is almost like a circle with rough edges while the ice around it is nice and smooth. Then it hit me, she is drowning. I run to ice and pace around it, simultaneously I blow the powder snow away from it’s surface. “Where is she?” I yell and bite my teeth together. Then I see her through the ice and I fell on my knees. I beat the ice with my fists, trying to break it.
“No use,” I whisper and suck air into my lungs from between of my teeth. Then I see my staff laying next to me from corner of my eye. “That is it!” I exhale and grab the staff. Quickly I stood up and hit the ice with my staff's end. I am using her trick, expanding the ice. Ice explodes which makes bits and pieces fly through the air, splashing back to water. Just before I fell under water I breathed in.
Finally I reached her, by pulling her from her hand I managed to get her to surface. Her body is numb, how long was she under? I look at her lifeless body which I drag to land. Gently I place her on the ground and lean my head over her mouth, I try to hear if she is breathing. Nothing. I try to swallow the lumpy feeling. She can't be dead, no.
My left hand goes over her chest and my right hand on my left. “I will not lose you,” I whisper to her and start to press her chest. After doing it few times I opened her mouth with shaking hands. My left hand held her chin and my right hands fingers pinched her nose. Quickly I pressed my lips against hers and blow air to her lungs two times. After that I continued pressing and then blow air to her lungs again. Her body started to twitch and I turned her to her side. She let the water out of her lungs finally and I pet her back.
“You’re going to be alright,” I whisper while I breathe heavily. Mostly I said it to myself. I roll her to her back and her eyes opened for a few seconds. “Jack,” she whispered before she lost consciousness. “I am here,” I smiled to her and lifted her to my arms. She is feeling so cold. I can’t use my wind or she will freeze. I glance at her face that looks so peaceful even though her lips are blue. “I need to get you back to castle,” I walk towards the castle and hope that she will survive. She seems so weak.
I trip on our way back but slowly I rise back up again. She is still in my arms, I won’t let her fall. At the castle garden I look up to her window. It is still open, she moans in my arms and I glance at her and feel worried. “Try to hold on,” I tell her and fly up. With my foot I pull the bed sheets open from her bed and place her to lay on bed.
She is wearing her ice dress. “That is not good,” I watch her as she shivers from the cold. Quickly I wrap a blanket around her. “Here it goes,” I took a deep breathe and touched her shoulder. I saw how the ice disappeared from her arms. I blushed since I succeeded to thaw her dress, I figured out that only me or her could get that dress of from her. She is still shivering even though she has the blanket around her.
“I will get help!” I tell her and I run to corridor. I need to find her sister. Then I hear conversation. “You haven’t found Elsa yet?” Anna sounds worried as the guard tells her how Elsa is still missing. Actually she is laying in her bed upstairs while freezing to death. Then I see a vase next to me which I glance and then I look at Anna. Maybe.. Quickly I threw the vase to floor and it shattered.
“What was that?” Anna whispered and I heard her steps. She is going for it! I feel hopeful and I start to knock on the walls, doing anything that might lead her to follow me. Finally I managed to lure her to Elsa’s room. “Elsa?” She narrows the door and sounds nervous. Elsa coughs in the room which startles me. Hurry, I think in my mind as I watch Anna opening the door. Now I see how she runs to Elsa. “Elsa! What is wrong!” She touches her sister. ”You’re so cold!” She seems worried and now she yelled a maid to get a doctor. I see how she rubs Elsa through the blanket I wrapped around her. I really hope that she will be alright.
Soon the doctor runs in and orders them to remove the blanket while he examines her. Quickly I turned around and closed my eyes. Unfortunately they had closed the doors and windows so I couldn’t leave without causing suspicion by blasting things open with wind. Finally I heard the words I wanted to hear. “She needs some rest and I think she will recover. Call me if her condition changes.” I turn around and see how Elsa is dressed warmly and has many blankets over her. She is sleeping and I smile as relieve fills me.
