Rise of the Brave Frozen Tangled Dragons [ON HOLD]

Chapter 6

Elsa panted heavily.

"Elsa! Where have you been?" Rapunzel burst into the room, followed by Hiccup and Merida.

They can see Elsa had fear in her eyes.

"What happened?" Merida asked.

Elsa looked them straight in the eye and whispered so quietly that they can hardly hear her, "Pitch,"

~ ~ ~

"What?!" North glared at Jack after Elsa had told them what Pitch said.

"It wasn't my fault!" Jack raised his hands up.

"Of course it was! Do you even know how hiding in a small dark closet can be dangerous?!" North's voice boomed.

"I-I'm sorry. I shouldn't have chased them and made them hide." Jack lowered his head.

"He's got a point, mate." Bunny agreed to North.

"Yeah, but why Elsa?" Tooth asked.

Elsa glanced quickly at Jack.

Only he knows about Elsa's secret. Jack held his breath and tensed. He debated on whether or not to tell the others about Elsa. They would help her, but he's not sure if Elsa would like everyone to know all her secrets.

"I-I don't know." Jack hesitated before answering.

Everyone looked at him. "Really?" They asked.

"Yeah!" Jack said nervously.

North sighed and said, "Okay, but if any of you know about Elsa, tell us. We can help her."

He faced Elsa, "Elsa, if you are ready to tell us, do so. The sooner the better."

Then he faced the others, "He threatens one of us, he threatens all of us."

"Yeah!" Everybody cheered.

Elsa froze in her spot. She thought they never should've trusted her, what more if they wanted to help her?

Elsa paced around her room. Frost crawled up the walls slowly.

"Conceal it." She told herself as she tried to keep her powers in.

"Don't feel. Don't feel." She frantically said.

"Don't feel." Her ice turned red and dangerous sharp spikes formed in her room.

She gasped in horror, and fell on her bed. She rubbed her temples and closed her eyes.

"Mama, Papa, help me." She looked outside the frosted window.

"I don't know what to do..." A tear rolled down her cheek.

Three soft knocks was heard from the door.

"Elsa?" A soft voice said. It was Rapunzel.

"Please, Punzie, you can't see me like this. Just... go." Elsa was hurt saying this, but Rapunzel might be hurt physically by her. She couldn't risk that.

No footsteps walking away could be heard - Elsa knew Rapunzel was still there.

"Please..." She pleaded.

This time, she did hear footsteps fading away.

~ ~ ~

"Jack? You in there?" Rapunzel called out before she opened the door to Jack's bedroom.

"Hm? Oh, yeah. Yeah, I'm here." Jack sighed deeply.

"Jack, I know you like Elsa. That's why I came to you first for help."

"No, Punzie, I don't like her." Rapunzel had a shocked and confused look on her face. Jack faced her.

"I love her." He looked down.

Rapunzel beamed and hugged him.

"I knew it!" Jack pulled away from her.

"This is all my fault..."

"No, Jack-"

"Yes, Rapunzel. I'm a horrible person."

"Jack, don't say that about yourself. You're sweet, you're funny, charming, an overall good person. Elsa sees that. I see that. Everyone sees that. Why can't you?"

"Because..."

"Hm?"

"Because I know Elsa's secrets." He whispered. "I didn't tell you, because..." He trailed off.

"Why didn't you tell us?"

"Because I was afraid..."

"Afraid of what?"

"Afraid... Of losing Elsa..."

"Jack-"

"I was afraid of losing Elsa. I was afraid she might not trust me anymore. I was selfish. I knew that if I told you all you could help her. But I didn't tell you. I put my own needs before hers. I'm a horrible person."

"Jack. Listen to me." Rapunzel said sternly.

"You are not a horrible person. You were trying to protect her. You kept her trust in you. What you did was right, even if it doesn't seem that way. She will tell us her secrets eventually. Right now, she's suffering on her own. I need your help; she wouldn't talk to me. Maybe she will to you. You're her closest in the group. Could you talk to her? Please?"

Jack nodded.

*back in time*

Elsa silently walked to Jack's room. She wanted to talk to him, but it appears someone had already beat her to it. It was Rapunzel.

"Jack, I know you like Elsa. That's why I came to you first for help."

"No, Punzie, I don't like her." Elsa was hurt. A tear rolled down her cheek. She silently sniffled. She peeked back inside to see Jack and Rapunzel hugging- Rapunzel had a smile on her face.

*present*

She couldn't take it anymore. She ran to the globe room and grabbed a snow globe.

"North mountain." She whispered silently in between tears.

Just before she broke it, she was interrupted by a voice.

"Elsa? What are you doing there?"

"Hiccup?" She faced him.

"What are you doing?"

"Hiccup, I... I..." She stuttered with tears filling her eyes.

He saw the snow globe in her hand and realized what she was going to do.

"Shh, it's okay." Hiccup hugged her.

"Where will you go?" Hiccup looked at her.

"Somewhere I can be who I am, without hurting anybody."

"Goodbye, Elsa."

"Bye, Hiccup. Please, don't tell anyone about this."

Hiccup hesitated before answering.

"I- I won't."

"Thanks Hiccup."

She smashed the globe into the ground, and Hiccup watched her disappear into the portal.
