Chapter 15 - What have you done?

Elsa's P.O.V

I hurried down the hallway, through the grand foyer an into the castle library. Scanning every shelf for an answer, to be honest, I didn't actually know what to look for.

Suddenly, it came to me, I was searching in the wrong place. Just after Anna and I saved Arendelle, I started to get to know all the books in the library. In which none of them were about dark magic. "I'm gonna try in the local library, down the street." I mumbled to myself.

Once again, running back into the grand foyer, I bumped into Jack. I hit against him, which almost sent me flying across the room.

Jack flew over to me and held out his hand. "Sorry, you okay, snowflake?" He asked concernedly. I didn't say a word, but just smiled in acknowledgment.

After I got to my feet, I straightened my sparkly dress and brushed off the invisible dust. He stared at me for a moment, before handing me the snow globe pitch gave me.

"Can I trust you with it?" I raised an eyebrow, "yes" Jack said in an obvious tone.

"First of all, where are you going?" He asked. "I'm heading to the Arendelle library" I replied in a hurry. "What should I do?" When he asked, my serious look came across my face.

"Can you do my a huge favor?" I waited for an answer. "Anything" he said. "Pitch is somewhere in the palace could y-" Jack cut me off. "Go after him?" He finished.

I nodded. He put his hands on my shoulders and said "Anything for you. Plus, I want to get rid of him for good this time. I will go get the other guardians." He left after giving me a quick kiss.

I jogged over to the doors, which the guards pushed opened for me. Immediately, the wind howled and made its way into the castle. Both, black and white snowflakes and brown leaves flew across me.

The storm was worse than the one I created myself. It was very hazy, and I could barely see past the fountain ahead of me. My kingdom was a white void.

I passed so many people, who stopped what they were doing, and started staring at me as if to say: "Help us". I feel like I couldn't control the evil pitch has brought here, and I, I feel so helpless.

When I reached the library, I pushed open the door. The sweet twinkling sound of the bell rang, as I entered. When the door closed shut, the outside world seemed to disappear.

The wind and snow came to a stop, all I could feel is the warmth of the fireplace against my cold skin.

I went up to the front desk in the library and asked politely "do you have any books about dark magic?". The librarian said "thank goodness you are here, Your Highness. And yes we do dear." She looked terrified.

"I have come to try and save Arendelle" I said, not wanting everyone to know about Anna. "Good thinking 99, I mean your majesty. We need your help" She curtsied behind the desk.

"The books are on the 43rd level. In the restricted section, row 22." She swallowed hard as she wrote it on a tea-stained piece of paper, then handing me a rusty key.

I stood at the bottom of the spiral staircase. Getting ready to make my way up 43 levels. Not really caring if I tripped I continuously checked the number on the walls and the crinkled piece of paper.

I reached the 37th level panting and gasping for breath. I leaned against the wall, before continuing up the stairs.

I finally reached the 42nd level. I then turned my head to the left and saw a grand lift. I wanted to scream and shout but i couldn't, it was a library.

I collapsed to the floor, struggling to make my way up the last ten steps. I got up and dusted myself off, as people were continually staring at me in a weird way.

I thought in my head: 'what is their problem? Running up 239 steps is hard work. And yes, I did count how many there were.'

So frustrated, I let it go and shook it all off. While trying to walk calmly to the 22nd row.

I clenched the brown, rusty key, in my fist. I was thinking about how disappointed I would be if I couldn't find anything.

I rejected my thoughts and put the key into the keyhole, then turning it. The metal door clicked open. I slowly walked to the area I needed to be in, taking in how old this place looked.

The restricted section, was in a similar state as the palace was. Ripped wallpaper, smashed vases, ripped pieces of paper and lots of dust.

I started to sneeze, one after the other, as I travelled down Isle 22. Finally, there it was, the book had a beautiful, swirly spine. The tittle read 'Forbidden Spells and Dark Magic'.

*Time Gap*

As the castle doors shut, I called out to Jack. "Jack? Where are you?" I got louder. "Down here" his voice trailed up from the basement, he sounded like he was in trouble.

I jogged down several flights of stairs, eventually skipping the last few. 'Urgh, stairs' I though to myself as I walked down the endless hallway.

At the end of the hallway, I came to a opening. It was a large room, candles hung on the wall, giving off a dim light.

I stopped dead in my tracks to what I saw. "Jack stop!" I yelled at him. He and the guardians, where hurting Anna. "Don't hurt her, she's in there somewhere".

At my command, the guardians relaxed. Anna got up off here feet and took one of the hanging candles, she held it right next to my face.

Hans, came out from the corner of the room and handed her his sword. "Finish her" He smirked evilly. "My job is incomplete until she is dead" Hans voice was dark, Anna went along with his idea.

She slowly held the sword to my neck, I dropped the book to the floor. Jack stood in shock, I looked at him as if to say 'please, don't just stand there, you idiot! Do something!'

She put more pressure on my neck, blood streamed out of the large cut of my neck, tears drowning my face.

"Anna, Don't." I begged. She looked at me, and for a split second I could see her true self. She let go, the sword still in her hand, but by her side.

Just when she was about to drop the sword, a evil look spread across her face. She gripped the handle and played with the sword in her hands.

It was then pushed right through my stomach.

I am so sorry for not updating and all the P.O.V's Elsa has, your probably thing that I am slack.

Also, the 'time gap' was just about Elsa heading back to the castle. (I really don't have to explain everything, do I? Jokes)
