Once Upon a Time: Ever After High (Book 5)

Ch.34 Big mistake

After visiting Mr. Gold, everyone went to the 'Wonder diner' where they tried to discuss what to do next.

"So are we just gonna wait until they come back?" Terrence asked.

"I don't know" Brooke said "I mean we can't really do anything, all we know is that Olivia and Elena are at Ever After with Jillian, maybe they'll find something there that can help them."

"And what if they don't?" Scott asked.

"It's Ever After, almost everything is magical there."

"But what there's no more magic due to the Evil Queen's curse?" Terrence said.

At that point Brooke gave a sigh of disappointment.

"I don't know what to say to that" she sighed.

"I do" Natalie Parker walked up to them "I think I know a way for them to come back."

"How?" they all asked.

"I know about the magic blue beans, and that one of them has already been used and another is missing and you guys used the other one, I know where the last missing bean is."

"You do?" Brooke gasped.

"It's in the giant's castle at Ever After, I was in the castle one day and I saw the bean on the giant's nightstand, if Olivia and Elena can find the bean, they can use it to transport back here."

"But how can we communicate with them?" Terrence asked "I tried calling Elena but it didn't work."

"That's where my magic comes in" Natalie smirked "There's a special way to communicate, but it's also very risky, it's by sleep."

"Sleep?" everyone said.

"Sleep communication, when you fall asleep, you dream about being in this room filled with fire called the Netherworld, and if the person you're trying to communicate with is asleep too, there's a chance you may see each other in the Netherworld. You will be able to communicate, but it doesn't last long."

"Okay then" Brooke said "So one of us has to fall asleep when either Olivia or Elena fall asleep, and we'll be able to communicate with them."

"Well it's not that simple, sleep communication works best when it's 2 people who were put on sleeping curses, so Olivia has to be the one to fall asleep since she's been in a sleeping curse before."

"But who's going to be the one to fall asleep in order to talk to Olivia?" Scott asked.

"Isn't it obvious? Macy will."

"Wait" Terrence said "I know Macy falls asleep a lot cause that's her story, but she hasn't been in a sleeping curse yet."

"Now that is where my magic comes in" Natalie smirked.

(Flashback) One warm winter day, in a meadow near a frozen lake, Noelle sat in a gazebo with her gloves by her side as she examined the urn Gold gave her.

"Well" a voice said as she turned and saw Jackie and Northwind coming up towards her.

"I knew Crystal had a younger sister" Jackie said as Noelle stood up "But we never had a chance to meet her."

"I'm Northwind" Northwind said as he held out his hands towards Noelle.

Noelle was about to shake his hand when she realized that she wasn't wearing her gloves, so instead she gave a curtsy.

"Noelle" she introduced herself with a smile "You guys must be Jackson's cousin, I'll get him."

"Hold on" Northwind stopped her "I heard that you were as beautiful as your sister, but you're even more beautiful up close."

"Well thank you" Noelle smiled as she tried to go away.

"And it is true" he stopped her again "How about you and me, date tonight?"

"Oh I'm flattered, but I'm not interested in dating right now, sorry."

"How come?" he asked as he got closer to her "You're too shy around guys?"

"No" she said as she backed away with an uneasy feeling "I'm just not interested."

"But everyone is interested in Northwind, you know why? Cause I'm the funnest guy you'll ever meet."

"You are too close to me" Noelle said as she held up her hands in defense.

But at that point ice magic shot out from her hands which sent Jackie and Northwind flying out the gazebo and onto the ground. Noelle gave a gasp as Jackie turned to her.

"You tried to kill us!" she yelled with shock.

"It was an accident!" Noelle said with guilt "I can't control my powers."

"Wow, the daughter of the Snow Queen can't control her own powers, I can see why you can keep yourself away from people."

"Hey" Jackson appeared "What's going on."

"Jack" Jackie said as she and Northwind got up "Thank goodness you're here, Noelle tried to kill us."

"In fact" Northwind added "She tried to kiss me, but when I tried to go away she blasted us."

"I did not!" Noelle gasped.

"Oh she did" Jackie lied.

"Thank you" Jackson smirked.

"Jack!" Noelle gasped.

"Thank you guys" Jackson said as Jackie and Northwind smirked "For showing me what big liars you are."

At that point their smiles went away.

"Wait what?" they said.

"But she did nearly killed us" Jackie said.

"It was an accident" Noelle said to Jack.

"Noelle can't control her powers" Jackson told them "But she's still learning and we love her for who she is."

"Oh really?" Jackie doubted "Then how come she never visits? How come people barely know about her? I know why, cause she's a freak who can't even control her damn powers."

"Enough" Jackson ordered.

"And do you really think that the people want their next queen to be like this? She should never be queen, I can see why everyone adores Crystal more."

"I said enough!" Jackson ordered "You two are to leave Noelle alone, she's my friend, and I accept her for who she is."

"Oh believe me" Jackie scowled "When everyone finds out how dangerous she really is when she nearly killed us with her uncontrollable magic, they'll lock her up and throw away the key!"

"Enough!" Jackson yelled as Noelle felt her blood boil.

"Because that's the only fate for a monster!" Jackie scowled at Noelle.

"Stop!" Noelle yelled as she held out her hands towards her.

But Jackie quickly pulled Jackson in front of her as Noelle blasted her magic into his heart! Jackson gasped in pain as he clutched his heart as Noelle gave a gasp of shock.

"Oo, we're telling" Northwind teased as he and Jackie ran off.

"Jack" Noelle gasped as she held onto him as he began to fall to the floor "Oh my God."

Now on the floor, Jack continued to clutch his heart as Noelle leaned over him.

"Jack" she gasped as she felt her eyes water "I'm so sorry."

Just then his whole body turned to ice.

"No" she gasped as his ice body broke down into cubes.

"NOOOOO!" Noelle screamed "Jack!"

She couldn't believe herself, her worst nightmare had come true, her own powers had killed Jackson.
