Disney Highschool

Chapter 13

The train ride was long, but Elsa looked out the window, watching her world pass her by as she came out of Boston. Most of the children had already been sent to houses by now. They were last. Her, Jack, Anna, Kristoff, Flynn, Hiccup, Merida and Rapunzel.

Finally, the train made its final destination. The conductor came and told them this was there stop. Elsa thanked him, and she led the way off the train and onto the loading platform.

They waited for a while on the platform. So long, that everyone who was there before loading and unloading the train, was gone. Even the train had left half an hour ago.

Hiccup looked at their tags. "Perhaps we've been improperly labeled?" he suggested timidly. Soon they heard the sound of hoof steps. They ran down the platform stairs and waited on the side of the dirt road leading away from the station. A woman in a wagon being pulled by a large white horse came up the hill and stopped beside the children. The woman looked down her nose at them.

"Ms. McGonagall?" asked Jack. The woman hesitated. "I'm afraid so." she said simply. The children looked at each other.

"Is that all you brought with you then?" she asked, surprise in her voice. The children all nodded. She seemed to almost smile, but that soon disappeared as it appeared. "Well, get in then.." she huffed and motioned for the back of the wagon. The children climbed in reluctantly.

The ride wasn't very long, and they soon saw a huge estate on the horizon.

The kids took off their coats and followed Ms. McGonagall up the large stairs. She explained all the rules; no running, no shouting, no disturbing the professor, whoever he was.

They sooner realized, that in this big house, there was absolutely nothing to do at all. The kids sat in their room, watching the rain pour from outside. It had not even been 15 minutes when it began to pour.

"Gastrointestinal..." asked Elsa. Jack huffed, trying to figure out how to spell the word she was asking. "Is it Latin?" he asked. Elsa nodded. "Is it Latin for 'worst game ever invents'?" teased Flynn. Elsa slammed the book shut. "Well then. What's hold we do today Flynn?" she said, crossing her arms.  Anna jumped up. "Let's play Hide-and_Seek!" she asked eagerly. It was a big house, and it could have been fun. Jack looked at Elsa, bored. "But we're having so much fun.." he said sarcastically. Elsa glared, but he placed a hand on her's and smiled apologetically. Anna rested her head on his arm of his chair. "Please!" she begged. Jack pretended to think. "One, Two, Three-" he began counting, and Anna face lit up happily. "Seriously?" asked Merida, but everyone already began to find hiding spots in the house. 

Anna ran up the stairs and down hallways until she came across an unlocked door. Inside, there was a large object, covered by a large white sheet. She walked slowly up to it. She yanked at the sheet and it fell quietly to her feet. A huge wardrobe stood where under the sheet was. The detailing of this closet was very beautiful, flowers and elves and centaurs and a lion all running down the side of the wardrobe. 

Down the many halls, Anna could still here Jack counting out loud. "..94, 95, 96, 97.." she quickly hid in the wardrobe, backing up to the end of it, but she just kept walking and walking, until something grazed her hand. She gasped and pulled away. It was prickly and cold. Suddenly, the smell of pine came to her. She turned around slowly and gaped at the sight. 

A forest! A snowy forest lay in the wardrobe! Anna smiled eagerly. She inched forward through the snow covered pine trees. Thankfully, she wore jeans and a cardigan. But unfortunately, she had only her slippers on, which surprisingly, didn't become wet.

She managed through the brush into a large clearing of snowfall. In the middle, stood a tall lamppost. She walked over to it, brushing the frost off with her hand. 

Suddenly, she heard a twig snap from behind her. She turned around to face the sound, but nothing was there. She listened as footsteps sounded louder and louder. Then, she saw it, but not good enough before they both screamed and hid behind the nearest object. Anna looked out from behind the lamppost. The creature, or man, or whatever he was, peeked out from behind the trees. Anna then noticed the packages on the ground. The man must have dropped them as he fled. She walked slowly to the parcels and picked them up. The man's eyes widened. "Oh! Um..Those are..I mean" he stuttered, but shut his mouth when Anna looked up at him. The man gulped, then got out from behind the trees to pick up the rest of his packages. Anna gaped. He had goat legs! He was a faun! Little stumps protruded from his head. Horns!

Anna gave him back his parcels, and he chuckled to himself. "I'm sorry. But what are you?" Anna asked.  The creature looked at her. "Well.. I'm-I'm a faun.. And what are you? Some sort of .. beardless dwarf?" he asked sheepishly. Anna was confused. "What? I'm not a dwarf! I'm a girl!" The faun suddenly looked at her, eyes wide again. Anna continued. "And actually, I'm tallest in my class." she stated. The man then looked down, then looked at her again. "Well.. My name is Mr.Mr. Thumnus." he announced. Anna smiled. "Nice to meet you Mr. Thumnus! I'm Anna Arendelle!" she stuck out her hand for his to shake. 

Mr. Thumnus hesitated. "Oh! You shake it." Anna chuckled. He grasped her fingers and quickly shook her fingers. Anna smiled. "Umm...why?" he asked her. Anna thought. "I don't actually know. People do it when they meet each other. I never really thought about it until now.." she marvelled. Mr. Thumnus smiled again sheepishly. "Well. Anna Arendelle. How would it be, if you came to have tea with me?" he asked. Anna smiled, again. "Why, I'd love to!" The faun chuckled nervously. Then he motioned for her to follow.
