Tempest-A Jack Frost and Elsa Fanfiction

Jack-Chapter 9

"What do you mean that it's not possible for me to have been there?" Elsa growled. "I was just there!"

Jack shook his head as he paced back and forth, the wheels turning in his head. "No, it's not possible for you to have been there. Out of all seven realms, there are only four people who can pass freely to and from each one—Summer, Winter, Fall, and Spring. What you just described to me was Ledas, the realm of ice."

Elsa stared hard at Jack, confusion etched in every perfect pore on her face. "I don't understand. Why could I see Ledas? Some sort of magic through you?"

"Beats me. This has never happened to me before. Let's try and find out if you can see it again." He held out his hand to her and she very gingerly took it, both of them holding their breath. But then Elsa's mouth turned into a frown as she shook her head.

"I don't see anything anymore," she whispered sadly.

He smiled slyly as he gazed back into her eyes. "You know, there's one other option we can try."

"What is it?" she asked, her expression hopeful.

Jack wiggled his eyebrows at her. "We could try kissing."

Elsa immediately scowled as she wrenched her hand out of his grip and before he could react, she buried him in a pile of snow and stomped away. He couldn't help himself as he burst into laughter. For some reason, she seemed to hate his guts and although he didn't like that, it was also very entertaining.

"Jokes!" Jack called after her, still laughing. The only person who ever seemed to get his sense of humor was Michael, and he was a human who had no idea who Jack really was. Then again, Jack preferred it that way. It made him feel somewhat normal.

As he watched Elsa make her way back down the hill to the ski resort they were staying at, Jack's expression fell. All of this just felt so confusing and the more he got to know Elsa, the more confused he felt. First off, humans couldn't see other realms or the creatures from those realms. Second, Elsa had magic and she was a human. Third, she caught a glimpse of Ledas which was also unheard of. The Seven Realms had been sealed off from one another after the assassination of Queen Delani. This worried him. It worried him a lot. Maybe there was a breach in the seal, and he needed to find out.

Jack caused an icy breeze to pick up around him and it carried him through the Seasons' fissure that connected all seven realms together. When he had first started doing this, it felt strange. But now it felt enjoyable, almost as if he were traveling at the speed of light. Mara, otherwise known as Summer, still felt sick every time she traveled, but that only made the three of them tease her more. To her credit, she was only fifty years old.

The fissure took him right into Ledas where it felt satisfyingly chilly, but no snow fell today. As he walked toward the palace, a staff that was as thin as ice but as sturdy as steel solidified in his hands. He looked out of place using it in the human realm, but here, it let everyone know who he really was. He was Jack Frost.

Ledas appeared bright and sunny but still cold enough to see his own breath. Perfect.

"Long time no see," Theo, otherwise known as Fall, said, falling right into step beside Jack. Jack almost felt jealous that he looked more or less normal with his red hair and blue eyes and he could fit into the human world the best out of all of them. "I thought you adopted the human realm for good."

Jack shook his head, chuckling to himself. "More like I found a good human friend to spend time with. Anyways, I'm here purely on business. Has there been any cracks in the seal? Holes, cracks, gaping wounds?"
