A/N:

Well this took a little longer than I expected, but I finally did it.

First off, the idea for this story isn't really my own, it belonged to someone on Tumblr (can't remember the name) but it inspired me to write this, and of course since I like the movie Frozen.

So hope you like it.

"Elsa? Are you in there?" Anna asked hesitantly.

She just stood in front of her sister's bedroom door; hoping for a response, or, better yet, for Elsa to at least open the door. After what it seemed like forever, Anna couldn't remember the last time she had been in her sister's room.

Anna wondered…what happened between them long ago that was so bad, that made Elsa shut her out of her life. As far as Anna could remember, their sisterly bond was so strong… that is was convincing to be inseparable. Convincing…since now it's like their relationship crumbled. But, even though Anna knew this already, as the younger sister, she still tried to reach out to Elsa.

"Do...do you want to build a snow-man?" Anna asked again.

She knew when it came to creating things, especially in the snow, Elsa would always have a smile on her face, and help Anna build the perfect snow-man. But as the familiar silence continued, Anna then gave a heavy sad sigh; pretty much knowing the answer.

"Okay, well…I guess I'll go then," Anna said sadly; already walking away.

But then she took one last look at the door, before disappearing in the halls of the castle.

After a minute, the door slowly began to open. To no surprise, the person revealed itself to be Elsa, the older sister. Elsa looked out, only to find the familiar empty spaces of the halls. Even though it was to be expected, Elsa couldn't shake the feeling of sadness and guilt in her heart.

After all, Elsa loves her sister, she would do anything to try and keep her safe from harm's way. And, if it means to isolate herself from Anna and even the world…then so be it. It was a nightmare, but after that day when she nearly froze her sister's heart, Elsa thought it was best to be locked up in her room and try to control her powers.

But, with so little success, Elsa believes that her powers are a curse. She feels she'll never be able to control them, no matter how hard she tries. With another glance, Elsa then closed the door and turned to her room. Everything…everything in her room was covered in ice and snow; almost resembling a winter wonderland.

As Elsa gave a sigh, she walked over to her window, seeing the day go by.

"Mmm….maybe…maybe I'm approaching this wrong…." Elsa said to herself.

"Instead of practicing in my room, I should practice outside.

I might get better results. But…I have to do it far from here, I don't want to hurt the people, or even let them see me. They'll probably think I'm a monster."

With the idea settled, and after waiting until the afternoon, Elsa sneaked out of the castle. She thought it was best to do this, since the last thing that she wanted was to get caught by Anna; only for her to be tagging along. No, Elsa had to do this alone, for her sake and for her sister's safety.

As Elsa made her way outside, the only thought that was engraved in her mind, was to get far away from her home as she possibly could. So, without even realizing she was running, she made her way into an unusual forest. As far as she could see, she never had set foot in this place…which was perfect. If no-one had been here, Elsa would be safe to practice.

But pretty soon, the thought of it sunk when she came across a small village. She didn't get a clear view though, since she crashed into someone from running previously.

"Ouch," she said falling to the ground.

"Oh sorry, forgive me. I didn't see you there," the boy said looking down at her.

"No, it's my fault. I was running after all," Elsa said; looking up half-smiling.

The boy then chuckled at her comment, and extended out his hand to her.

"Here, let me help you up," he said; giving a smile.

As Elsa was going to take the boy's hand, she then quickly hesitated. She noticed that one of her gloves came off when she fell to the ground. She was scared, what if she freezes the boy if she touched him. The last thing she would want is for the boy to be scared of her and her powers; that is…if he were to find out.

So Elsa quickly got her glove and put it on, while helping herself up, without the boy's assistance.

"No, no, its fine, I can do it," Elsa said smiling.

"O-okay," the boy said a little confused.

As Elsa was dusting off some snow from her dress, the boy continued to examine her.

"This may be a wild guess but, you probably don't live in this village, do you?" the boy said.

"Why no, I'm…I'm just passing by actually," Elsa said.

"Oh well, okay, mind telling me your name so I can say good-bye properly then," he asked.

At first, Elsa was going to say her name, but then again she was scared. She didn't really want this boy to know her to begin with. So in the end, she slightly changed it.

"My name is Elisa…" Elsa said playing with her hands.

"Elisa…that's a pretty name," he said smiling.

"And yours?" Elsa asked.

She didn't mean to ask this question, since she wanted to know the boy as little as possible, but, being in conversation made the question come out naturally.

"Jackson, but I prefer Jack instead," he said.

Elsa didn't know why, but even if it was only for a moment, there was something about Jack that she liked; though she just couldn't figure out what it was. Maybe…maybe it might be nice to see him again; get to know him more. But then the thought quickly faded, she knew she was only painting a picture of what she wanted. In reality, Elsa knew if Jack were to see the power she holds, he would be scared and call her a monster; not wanting anything to do with her.

Elsa then gave a sigh, slightly looking down, "Well, I better be going, it was nice meeting you Jack."

"Pleasures all mine," Jack responded back.

Without another word, Elsa continued to walk, slowly passing the small village.

"It's better that he doesn't know the real me…" Elsa uttered to herself.

But as she was walking, Jack couldn't help himself, but to look back. Seeing the girl he just met, walking away, it made him feel weird. For Jack, he never really believed in the concept of love at first sight since he's always about fun and games, but now, for some unexplainable reason, today was different.

Without even realizing it, as Jack was looking at Elsa, a warm smile appeared on his face. But he quickly snapped out of it when he heard his sister calling him. As he turned, he saw Emma running to him.

"Jack!" she cried happily.

Within hearing this, Elsa couldn't help herself, but to look back. And when she did, she saw the boy she just met, holding a small girl in his arms. Both of them looked so happy together, that Elsa was able to recognize their special bond; seeing that they were brother and sister.

A warm smile appeared on Elsa's face, but after a second, it vanished. Pain struck her heart yet again. Elsa wished she still had that special bond with her own sister, but knowing what she has to deal with, in order to keep Anna safe, it made Elsa feel a bit jealous of Jack, since he can always be there for his sister, while she can't for hers.

As Elsa continued to see Jack, without even realizing it, she created snowflakes. In an instant, everyone took note of the snow falling, and within time, more people started to appear. With this happening, Elsa then turned away and ran, not wanting to attract attention.

"Why….why…why was I cursed with this power?!" Elsa said in her mind.

Within every step she took, she could feel herself running even faster and faster. But as soon as she came across a lake, Elsa stopped in her tracks. In an instant, she looked around to see if anyone was present, but luckily for her, there wasn't.

"Well, I already made more snow, might as well freeze this lake too," Elsa said; looking at her watery reflection.

Without another word, Elsa then took off her gloves and kneeled down, putting her hands in the water, though as soon as she made contact, the whole lake started to be covered in ice. It may look easy, but to Elsa, it was hard, since she's still trying to have control, freezing large things isn't to what she's use to. But then again, that's why it's called practicing to begin with.

It took an hour, but as the ice covered the lake, Elsa sensed there was something wrong about it.

"Why is it thin? I wanted to make the ice thick," she said to herself.

But before Elsa could do anything about it, she started to hear voices coming her way.

"Oh no! Those people from the village probably saw me. They must be on to me. I have to get out of here."

And with that, Elsa got up, put on her gloves, and started running again. Even though she wanted to run back home, curiosity got the better of her. So she hid behind a tree and saw who the people could be. To her surprise, it was Jack and his sister Emma.

"What…what are they doing here?" Elsa questioned.

"See Jack I told you, now we can skate," Emma said to her brother.

"Okay, okay you win, just be careful when you get on the ice," Jack said.

Then Elsa's eyes widen, at this rate, she knew what was going to happen.

"No…"

Elsa wanted to do something, but instead, she did the opposite. She didn't want to face what she had done, so Elsa turned and started to head back to the castle. Though, it felt like the action haunted her. As Elsa was running away, she could sense that the ice broke from the lake. Even the sound of it breaking apart made her flinch, but no matter what she was feeling, Elsa kept running.

And, just when things couldn't get any worse, a shrill broke out into the air; to Elsa, the voice sounded like nails on a chalkboard; making her fall to her knees, holding her head.

"JAAACCK!" Emma's voice rang in Elsa's ears.

As soon as Elsa heard the boy's name, she was instantly frozen. Her eyes were wide, while her hands started to shake; it was clear that something terrible had happened…all because of her, all because of her powers. She knew the ice she created was so thin, that Jack fell in. In a sense, Elsa concluded to herself that she murdered Jack; the boy she barely knew.

After a second, Elsa was able to get back onto her feet, but what she was feeling was unchanged. As she made her way back to the castle, Elsa was once again locked in her room; conceal and isolated. Knowing of the boy's tragic end, Elsa was curled up in a corner, silencing crying.

"You're a monster…." a voice whispered in her head.

"No! I-I didn't mean to. I was trying to control my powers," Elsa said.

"But you knew what was going to happen, you could have done something to prevent it, but instead, you ran away, letting the event unfold."

Then Elsa covered her ears, not wanting to hear the voice; though it was no use.

"I was scared; I didn't want to reveal my powers."

"That may be true, but you know that your powers reacted on emotions, and what you felt, was jealously.

You were jealous of the boy.

You wished you were like him, to have a normal life, and for that, you made the ice thin, only for him to fall in and die.

In the end, you are a murderer, a monster."

"No, no, it's not true! I would never want to hurt anybody…"

Elsa then looked at her hands, and gave a sad sigh, "I wish I could take it back."

Silence quickly filled the air, until Elsa found her voice again.

"W-who am I kidding," She then tighten her hand into a fist, "This power is a curse, and as long as I have it, I'll do more harm than good."

Elsa then got up from her corner and walked to the window, "I'm never going out there again, or for the most part, open the gates to the castle….not until I'm Queen."


It had been a few days since the incident, and Elsa couldn't get Jack out of her head. Deep down, she wished she could take it back; only to see the boy alive again. But Elsa knew that that wasn't going to happen. At this point, Elsa thought it was maybe best to just say good-bye; in hoping it will ease her pain.

So as day turned to night, Elsa sneaked out of the castle again and went to the village. Pretty soon she came across the lake and noticed the broken ice. This automatically made Elsa sad. She knew… she knew that she did damage to Jack's family, and worse, even to his sister. Now the parents didn't have their son anymore, as well as the young sister not having a big brother to watch over her.

Elsa walked over to the lake and kneeled down, surprisingly holding a single rose in her hands.

"I'm sorry Jack, I didn't mean for this to happen.

Especially to you," Elsa said.

"And even though I barely knew you, I wanted to say good-bye, and…to give you this rose."

As Elsa was going to place the rose in the water, a voice startled her.

"A rose?" a familiar voice said.

Elsa quickly got up and turned to see a boy much like Jack; except now, he was much paler, had silver hair and icy blue eyes.

Without thinking, Elsa waved her hand and shot out a ray of ice at the boy.

"Get away!"

Knowing what was coming; Jack quickly dodged it, and stood his ground.

Being invisible to people, Jack didn't think Elsa had the ability to even see him to strike. But as he turned to see a tree covered in ice, due to dodging the blow, Jack was astonished.

"This…this person…she's just like me," he uttered to himself.

"Who are you?!" Elsa demanded.

Jack then held his staff up defensively, "Funny, I was going to ask you the same thing, but I guess you beat me to it," he said with a slight chuckle.

"Well, answer me then," Elsa said.

"My name is Jack…Jack Frost to more precise."

"J-Jack?" Elsa said confused.

As Elsa was trying to make sense out of this situation, something then clicked in her head. Elsa suddenly tighten her grip on the rose she had, within doing this, ice was forming around the stem.

"No…I-I cursed him," Elsa said in her mind; looking at the ice forming underneath Jack's bare-feet.

"He's…he's like me now…."

"Now that I introduced myself, what's your name?" Jack asked.

"And…how are you able to see me?" he continued.

"What? He doesn't remember me?" Elsa wondered, "And, what does he mean that I'm able to see him?"

"Well, I'm waiting," Jack said.

Elsa then threw the rose to the ground, "I'm sorry, its better that you don't know who I am, and I don't know why I can see you, but, trust me, if you knew what happened, you wouldn't even be talking to me."

Tears then started to form in Elsa's eyes, though she tried to hold them back.

"I'm the reason why you're like this, and for that…I'm sorry. I would ask for forgiveness, but I know something like this can never be fixed."

Jack was baffled; he wondered what Elsa was talking about. He wondered, what did she mean about him forgiving her? But most importantly, what did she mean by that she was the reason for him being Jack Frost, if he only has his memory from being born from the lake.

After all, Jack never had a mortal life, well…as far to his knowledge. As Jack lowered his staff, trying to make sense of the situation, he saw that Elsa was starting to run pass him. At first, Jack was going to let Elsa leave, but something inside him made Jack react to what Elsa said. So Jack quickly grabbed Elsa by the hand, not wanting her to go.

"Wait, please stay," Jack said looking at her.

But Elsa tried not to make eye-contact.

Silence began to fill the air as snowflakes started to fall.

Jack was hoping for Elsa to stay, even if it was only for a moment, he had a feeling that he met her before. He wondered…did he have a past? Since "The Man in the Moon" never answered his questions, Jack thought…maybe this girl, that's much like him, will. But sadly, it was never meant to happen.

"I'm sorry…I can't," Elsa said sharply.

And with that last remark, Elsa got out of Jack's grip and ran back to her home. To Elsa, as much as she wants to help Jack, she feels that when and if he discovers how he died, seeing how she was the reason, Jack would be furious at her and wouldn't want to see her again. So in Elsa's eyes, she would be doing Jack a favor; she didn't want to hurt him even more than she already had done.

As Elsa was lost in plain sight, Jack turned back to the rose that was left behind. He slowly kneeled down, picking the rose up.

"That girl sounded like she was talking to someone when I showed up.

But…I couldn't make out what she was saying. I wonder…what was this rose for…or who was this rose for?" Jack said to himself.

As Jack kept staring at the rose, he noticed that the pedals started to transform into a beautiful shade of blue. A small smile appeared as he had the flower in his hand, yet as his gaze went up to the moon, it diminished into sadness.
