After the rebel attack we all got the day off. I walked around the castle when I saw Vanessa. I followed her into a bathroom. It was big enough that I could hide without being seen. I noticed Vanessa was also hiding. Then Prince Jack walked in.

"Elsa? Elsa?" He called searching the room. "Why did you want to meet in here?" He asked. Vanessa emerged from her hiding spot.

"Hey Jackie." She smiled flirtatiously.

"Vanessa? What are you doing in here?" He asked with very obvious confusion.

"I needed to talk to you." She said with a fake pout.

"About what?" Prince Jack seemed mildly annoyed.

"About Elsa." This caught his attention.

"What about her?" He asked sternly.

"She's been saying things about you. And about what happened that night. " I was ready to jump her but I knew I couldn't let them be aware of my presence.

"Like what?" I could tell he was believing her.

"She said you loved her." Prince Jack stayed silent and stared at the ground. "And that she would do anything to have you. That she seduced you into sleeping with her that night after the report. And she said that if you didn't pick her she would tell everyone you forced her into having sex with you." I studied the prince. His fists and jaw were clenched. He was mad. He had believed every lie Vanessa just told him.

"Thank you for telling me the truth." He said trying to hide his anger. Vanessa left leaving Jack alone. He punched a wall. He was ready to stomp off to find Elsa but I jumped out and stood in front of the door.

"Prince Jack you can't believe a word she says." I stated blocking his path.

"Have you been listening the entire time?" He questioned.

"Yes but that's not the point. Nothing she said was true." I said.

"Nothing?" He asked sternly. He stepped closer so his face was super close to mine. He still had a look of anger in his eyes.

"Well she did say you loved her but only because Vanessa called her a slut." I covered my mouth. "Excuse my language."

"Get out of my way." He wasn't listening to her.

"I swear the rest of it was a lie!" I argued.

"Rapunzel if you don't get out of my way right now I will send you back to where you came from without a second thought." I stumbled a way from the door in shock of his dark tone. He stormed out of the room. I sprinted after him hoping to reach Elsa before he did. Luckily he stopped to talk to a guard so I made it to Elsa's room on time.

I explained the situation to her. Before I could finish the same guard Jack spoke to was knocking at the door.

"Lady Elsa the Prince has requested some of your time."

"Of course thank you Kristoff." Elsa replied before walking away with him.
