36 Black as Night

Dedicated to DarkNinjaGirl. You gave me votes like many others and are one of my precious readers. You also let me feel like you really appreciate my work by your comments.

POV Elsa

Have you ever had the feeling of being totally lost? This is how I feel now. First my whole body felt really heavy and aching. Somehow I imagine that I have been laying in this cold floor for some time now. My hand goes through the dark place that surrounds me. There is a metallic sound and my hands felt really heavy.  Shackles, they were shackles. Those shackles were covering my hands, tied me to this place.

My worst fears were coming true. The floor was moist and in small areas were actual puddles. I smell rotten leaves that are slimy and cover the floor. The smell makes me sick and next thing I experienced was excruciating headache.

Blood was rushing to my head and making it feel like a beating heart of pain itself. Sitting made it worse and I had to take some support from the wall that I realized being behind of me. Next the images from what happened rushed to my mind. This is Pitch’s doings. He is the one behind of this, he hurt me. Slowly I wiped some leafs away from my dress. The leaves were extremely sticky.

The moments in silence made me feel uneasy. Slowly my eyes started to get used to dark. Now I saw some faint lines of objects. There were just me and a heavy looking door. With my hands in front of me and touching the air I walked to the door.  The shackles had chain that just as enough for me to reach the door. My arms felt stinging pain when I hit the door over and over again. Shackles made it painful when the metal hit the door and edges of those shackles were rubbing my wrists sore. “Let me out! You can’t treat people like this!” I screamed many times.

My efforts were for nothing. No one came. I went sitting against the wall again. There was just a little hint of light coming inside from the tiny hole in the brick wall. This must have been a dungeon. My eyes went shut and I buried my head on my knees. Loneliness and despair, those words I felt just now in their actual meaning.  

I heard the creaking sound of that heavy door. Someone was opening it and I heard the footsteps getting closer to me. Slowly I peeked at the figure. It was standing in front of me for a moment that felt like ages. My vision was getting better at the dark again. Figure leaned down and offered hand. “Jack!” I screamed with relief. He came to get me.

I hugged the figure which didn’t feel like Jack. It wasn’t my Jack, the feeling was like when you have done sand cakes on playground as a child. It was pure sand. It was Pitch’s dark sand. Quickly I backed up and the figure left.

Again I was alone in the darkness. It must have been noon already since it felt like it. Hunger was also starting to bother me. Then the dark figure of Jack came to me again. It had a plate with bread. Right at the moment where he offered the plate to me I made the plate drop on the ground from figure’s hands. I refused to eat the things Pitch would offer me. The figure just stayed in that pose, kneeling before me.

Then the figure pushed me against the brick wall behind of me. “Let me go!” I yelled but it grinned eavily. It had no eyes, no expression. Just black sand. It took my head between its hands, forced my head the face it’s. It moved closer to me. It was kissing me, forcefully. Never did I know that a kiss would feel this bad, that it could make you feel in pain.

Panic was spreading to my body. With my shackled hands I tried to push the figure away. I felt scared as I was feeling more and more dizzy. A black curtain was slowly closing my eyes, I saw nothing. Felt nothing.  The thing I heard was just the laughter that was filling the room. The evil laughter.

POV Jack

It was already Noon. Elsa didn’t come home at night nor this morning. Normally I would have left to give children some fun time by now. This day was different since I felt worried about her, Elsa. Jackson is on his nap while I pace around the room and try to figure out where she is. Maybe I should try to reach out for Manny’s help? Go to the North Pole.

Then I felt a presence. The same presence when Elsa is near me.  I quickly turned around. It was her, her back was turned away from me but it was her. She was closing the door and I smiled with relief. “Elsa! You’re alright, where were you?” I felt the lump in my chest to loosen up.

She turned around and was looking at the ground with her eyes closed. Slowly she was walking towards me and my staff fell to the ground. Is she ok, I mean really ok? No smile, no nothing. She stands in front of me, still without any sign of emotion.

Carefully I touch her shoulder and lift my eyebrows. “Hey..Elsa..is something wrong?” For my surprise she spread her eyes open. They were as black as night.

I started to retreat in horror. “What has happened to you, Elsa!” I yelled in panic but only the walls were listening. She was grinning with devious look and getting closer to me. Her hand waving in the air smoothly while making the whole room freeze. No one could get in or out. The ice climbed up the walls, over the windows and the door. Quickly I looked at my right. Our son was alright, she didn’t freeze the furniture for my relief.

“Please Elsa..try to remember who you are.” I keep my hands in front of me. A feeling of protection that soon turned to false. She blasted ice at me with a power you couldn’t imagine. My body hit the hard frozen wall and the hit made me gasp. The blast was like a wind that freezes everything in its path. No one but a Winter Spirit could hold that big amount of cold.

I supported myself to the wall. She walked determined towards me. Her hands were making another blast ready to happen, the air was turning icy blue shade on top of her right hand. She moved her fingers to make it, ice crystals were shimmering around her.

My heart started to beat desperately. Someone had control on my Elsa. Then I felt ager when I started to think that who would do that. It couldn’t be no one else. No one else but Pitch and his darkness. He was using Elsa against me since he knows that I wouldn’t dare to hurt her. Quickly i avoided the ice spikes that Elsa made to pierce me.

While I was catching my breath I heard Jackson starting to cry. Elsa noticed it and turned around, moving towards our son. Next thing I saw shocked me. She was preparing for another ice blast and targeting our son. “Elsa, no! Don’t!” I yelled at her. ”He  is our son, your son! Don’t let Pitch control you.. don’t let him hurt our boy through you.” Then she reacted, stopped and fell on the ground and held her head. She was sobbing.

”Please Jack..help me..” She was holding her head like it was going to explode. Slowly I made my way closer to her again and kneeled next to her. She was now crying and leaning on me, seeming more like the Elsa I knew. My arms wrapped around her. “Elsa..Elsa.. I’m so sorry! I don’t know what to do!”

She opened her eyes and looked me straight to my eyes. Her eyes were still as black as night. I had to try hard to swallow the piece in my throat. Even I felt like sobbing when I wiped her tears. “I’m sorry..we will find a way, I promise.”

We were swinging together while we sat on the floor. “Jack..I can’t see..” She whispered and my heart dropped. “Shh..Don’t worry Elsa.” My hands patted her head and then with tears falling on my cheeks I lifted her head closer to mine while I held her gently by her cheeks. Our lips touched, her lips were still soft. The feeling of our kiss made me close my eyes.  Suddenly I got a bad feeling which made me open my eyes again and wide from horror. The kiss started to feel painful, I couldn’t get our lips apart and it felt like something was transferring from her to me. It was almost like a needle has been pushed in my lips many times. The feeling of suffocating made me feel sick.

Finally the torture ended. My world was turning black and I jumped up, holding my head and felt like the whole world was moving. Elsa was laying on the floor and I tried to reach her. The last thing I remember is when I hit my body against the stone floor of the castle.

POV Elsa

My head was feeling like exploding again. No memory of what has happened after the dark Jack’s figure kissed me. Slowly I open my eyes and the surrounding come clearer little by little. I see my own Jack laying in front of me unconscious. I push him gently “Wake up Jack!”

Jack woke up and stand up. Quickly i stood up too and hugged him. “Oh, Jack! I’m myself now. Everything is alright again!” My face is feeling his chest through his hoodie. He doesn’t speak to me and slowly I lift my head up. His eyes..his eyes are black.

My hand went in front of my mouth when I realized what I had done. “No! Jack..I’m sorry.” I whisper while crying. My heart cannot stand this despair much longer. What have I done?

Behind of me a deep laughter of the dark himself starts to hear. It is Pitch but I just stare at my Jack. Pitch walks next to Jack and places his hand on Jack’s shoulder. Normally Jack wouldn’t let Pitch this close to him. My chest rises and lowers quickly while I cry.

Pitch was grinning at me.  ”The only way to me actually hurt Jack was through you. My plan worked perfectly. Oh, how do you find my new trick?” His awful laughter rang in the icy walls. Then he went serious and continued when I didn’t show any response in my expression. “Dear, dear.. It took  a while for me to master the mind and body snatching. However that needed close contact and for that reason Jack was a tricky one to have. Then you made my job a lot easier.” He paced around me with disgusting looking happy grin on his face.

Then I realized that Pitch and Jack were going to balcony. “No, Jack! Don’t leave with that guy!” He didn’t hear me. He didn’t turn around. It was Pitch who turned around. “Thanks to you I now have the key to control the world with fear. Soon every other Guardian will be out of job since the Guardian of Fun starts to spread fear instead.”

The way Pitch was holding his hand on Jack’s shoulder while speaking made me feel angry. He was too comfortable around my Jack, Jack who normally would have defeated Pitch right away. I blasted a wave of ice and snow at him. However then Jack quickly turned around and blocked my attack. Pitch glanced at Jack and laughed eavily. “You see girl, he is mine.” Then they left from the balcony.

Never before have I been feeling this helpless until now. I went to Jackie, to give him comfort since he cried alone in his bed. The room around was starting to melt slowly and I could now hear that someone had been banging the door for quite some time now. I just noticed it. Anna and Kristoff came inside with confusion all over their faces. Kristoff took crying Jackie from me and I just let myself hug Anna. She let me cry to her shoulder while she tried to ask me what had happened. I was in no condition to answer.
