Rise of the Nightmares (Jelsa/The Big Five)

Chapter 1 - The Ballroom

Elsa POV

"When will we get inside? This line up will never end." Charlotte complained.

Elsa was silently cursing her sister for making her come here. Go on, it'll be fun, you only turn eighteen once, she heard her sister's voice say. Well, I turn eighteen in three days so why the heck am I standing here? Elsa thought to herself.

"Oh don't worry, we'll get in when the line dies down," Tiana said kindly to Charlotte.

The hundred or so teenagers standing outside the Ballroom Club eagerly waited to get inside, along with Elsa and five of her friends. Elsa impatiently checked her phone, 9:15 p.m. All she wanted to do at this time was to go home and sleep.

Looking up, she saw a group of teenagers, dressed all in black, walk right passed the bouncer.

"Hey! Why do they get to skip the line?" She didn't realize she said that out loud, pointing to the door they just entered.

Snow looked up from her phone, "Who's skipping the line?"

"Right there, they already got in." She was on her tiptoes now, still pointing out the now empty doors.

"Elsa, I didn't see anyone go in and besides the bouncer would have stopped them," Cinderella said.

"I guess you're right. Maybe I'm just seeing things."

❄❄❄

Inside, the club was full of colorful lights flashing everywhere. Smoke was coming from all corners, but even with all the lights flashing, Elsa could not see anything.

"I'm gonna go get us some birthday drinks," Snow said to Elsa.

"It's okay! I don't like to drink!" But she was already gone, wandering off without an answer. Elsa was now alone since they had already lost the others.

She walked around the nightclub looking for a place to sit, her guard was up, dodging people who clearly couldn't walk straight.

Every couch Elsa found was occupied by couples, sticking their tongue down each other's throats. When she gave up with her hopeless idea of finding a couch, eventually she found herself outside a door. The words, "Janitor's Closet" was slapped in bold white letters across the front.

Good enough, she thought, until her friends text her to meet and decide to go home.

She stepped inside. The closet was bigger than it looked from the outside. About the size of Elsa's bedroom at home. There were shelves filled with cleaning supplies and countless types of tools. The center of the room was empty with enough space for walking around. Elsa noticed a small black chair hidden in the back corner of the room.

She was making her way to the chair when she heard the doorknob jiggle. She jumped behind a shelf, if a janitor caught her in here, he could report her to the owners and she could get banned, which may not actually be a bad thing.

Five people stepped into the closet. She noticed that it was the same people wearing all black who skipped the line. But this time they were holding someone hostage.

"Guardians," The blue-haired boy with yellow colored eyes hissed. His arms were being held from behind by a boy who looked about Elsa's age. He had brown hair and green eyes and looked skinnier than the blue haired boy but seemed to have a tight grip anyway.

Elsa thought about screaming but she was outnumbered and they were in the way of the door.

"Where are your kind hiding? Why are there more Nightmares around Burgess lately? Who's bringing them here?" Another boy about Elsa's age, interrogated. He had brown hair and brown eyes.

"Jack, that's enough." The blonde one said. She reached her hand out to Jack's shoulder, before dropping it back to her side. He had a spark in his eye, Elsa thought. It looked like a spark of excitement. But she was more focused on the golden glowing knife he was holding to the blue haired boy's throat.

They're crazy, Elsa thought. Actually crazy.

"No, Punz. We need to find out why so many of them are here." Jack said as he pushed the knife slightly deeper into the guy's throat.

"Pitch is back, and he will get his revenge on all of you Guardians." The blue haired boy spat.

"Ye stupid nightmare. Pitch is dead and he ain't coming back. So yew better get yer story straight before I stick me arrow straight through yer eye." A curly hair ginger girl said in her heavy Scottish accent. She was also dressed in black with a crossbow and golden colored arrows strapped on her back.

"See, Merida agrees with me. Don't you agree with me Hiccup?" Jack said to the green eyed boy. Even though his face never dropped its serious look, Elsa could sense a teasing tone from him.

While they were bickering, the blue-haired boy managed to kick Hiccup in the leg. Then turn to punch Jack in the face but before he could, Jack stopped his hand so fast Elsa almost didn't see it. Then, almost in an instant, Jack stabbed the blue-haired boy in the chest with his golden knife.

The knife glowed for a moment before blood began dripping down the boy's chest. He collapsed on the floor, turning into a pile of black sand, disappearing completely.

Elsa screamed. Jack was the first to notice. He looked directly into her cyan blue eyes, confusion spread throughout his face. His brown eyes were unreadable.

"What's this?" Hiccup said, his face just as surprised as Jack's.

"It's a girl. Surely you've seen a girl before, Hiccup. Your sister Rapunzel is one." Jack said to Hiccup.

"It's a human girl," Merida said.

Rapunzel was the first to take a step forward. "You can see us?"

"Someone will come here and see what you did to that boy. You won't get away with it." Elsa panted like she had been running. Fear was filling her whole body. The four looked at her and said nothing, just stared.

Jack was the only one with a now amused look in his brown eyes, "With what evidence?"

Elsa stayed where she was but frantically started looking around. He was right. There was no evidence of the blue haired boy's existence. No blood, no black sand, nothing. The black sand had disappeared.

The door to the janitor's closet opened. Snow and the four other girls stood at the entrance. "What are you doing in here alone? Are you okay?" Snow said.

Elsa looked at Snow and her friends, then back at Jack. He had a smile on his face and he looked like he was trying to conceal a laugh.

"I-- I," Elsa couldn't finish her sentence. She was still in shock from what she saw.

"Lucky Tiana heard you scream and not the security. Come on let's go, this place is getting lame now." Charlotte said.

Elsa left the closet with her friends. She heard Rapunzel giggle behind her.

A/N

Welcome to my story! I hope you enjoyed the first chapter. I apologize for any horrendous errors, I do try my best.

I decided --attempted-- to write this story in the third person limited. For those of you who may not know what it means, it means that the narrator only knows what one character knows. So it's essentially like the first person but written in third.

The majority of the story will be written in Elsa's POV but it will change. And I'll write who's POV it is so that no one gets confused. 

(❄❄❄) means time/scene change but I'm sure you guys knew that already :)

I hope you all like it and if you do feel free to vote/comment/share :) <3

See you all next chapter <3
