Chapter 17

Jack

" Here, open this. " Tooth suggests, shoving a golden tube into my hand.

" Why? I already know my memories, Tooth. " I say, glancing at her in confusion. She sighs annoyed as she makes my place my finger on the blue diamond. The blinding light I saw once before blinds me again, and when I can see again, I see me and Elsa. She's giggling happily as we gaze at stars. We're cuddled on the soft snow as she makes snowflakes splatter everywhere.

Then, another vision comes. It's me first finding Elsa, alone in her room and scared. I remember making snow sheep with her, and teaching her how to ice skate in her room.

And then, there's her sacrificing herself for her sister. She shoved her off the thawing ice as she plunges into the icy depths. She died that day, but my love for her was what brought the Man in Moon to bring her back. My pain and loss was so numbing, I thought I'd never feel that way ever. But here I am, weeping at the dead body of Elsa laying on the snow.

Then, there's her coming back to life. I was so joyful, and I confessed my love to her...

Gasping for breath, I refocus my vision. Sandy is looking at me, worried as Bunny paces rapidly. North is chatting with Tooth as she glances at me panting. She rushes up to me as she gazes at me, waiting to see if I remember. I nod as she squeals excitedly.

" We need to go find her, like now. " I announce, leading everyone to North's sled. Climbing on it, I glance at Tooth and nod gratefully.

' Thank you. ' I mouth, and she nods, her eyes twinkling. Exhaling, I let the memories of Elsa sink in.

I remember.

Elsa

Plunging through the snow, I gaze at the twinkling stars. But, then I start to think of Jack and how he loved gazing at them. Tears threaten to stream down my face, but it's just a waste of tears. I wipe my eyes with my wrist as I make my way up a mountain. Gazing in the horizon, I see my ice castle. A grin forms on my face as I remember the feeling of safety there. So I run faster, making my way towards the doors.

Once I get to the doors, it's nearly the break of dawn. The shimmering stars that were shinning oh so bright, are now dimming slowly. I gaze at the towering palace, made of glimmering ice and snow.

" Home sweet, home.. " I whisper sadly. Looking behind me, I see the sun rise and I smile.

" You never got to see a sunrise with Jack, hmm? " Pitch asks, appearing from behind me. I stand there frozen, gazing at Pitch with my eyes full of hatred.

" You made Jack forget me. " I say grimly. He smirks, and I can feel anger rising up inside me. " It's your fault... " I whisper, my hands forming fists.

Pitch places his hand on my shoulder as he sighs, " Then maybe, don't get on my bad side... " At these words, I scream wordlessly inside. Spinning around rapidly, my palm comes in contact with Pitch's cheek. He steps back, staggering. Tears stream down my face as his face turns from soft to furious.

" What will it take to make you forget about him, Elsa?! " He cries out, getting ready to attack. Stepping back, I shrug.

" We're meant to be together. I love him, and now he doesn't have any clue who I am, or was! " I cry out miserably, holding in the blizzard that wants to explode.

" This just proves he doesn't love you! " He pauses, waiting for me to yell at him. But, I have no words anymore. Placing my hands on my eyes, I sob silently and collapse in the snow.

" If he truly loved you, he wouldn't of let his memories get erased... " He states, a smirk forming on his face. Gazing at the sky, I see the last of the stars disappear. I shake my head, my loose braid swaying back and forth.

" Jack loves me, he just doesn't realize it anymore.. " I note, standing up I glare at Pitch.

" You didn't try to kill Jack. You only wanted him to go unconscious and then you'd erase his memories.. " My eyes widen in horror at the thought. Pitch smiles devilishly as I turn away, desperate for this to all be one horrible nightmare.

" What goes better, than cold and dark? " He asks, his voice like silk. My thoughts are all cramped together, and I look at my hands in confusion. Shaking my head, I loosen my palms. I turn around, tears spilling down my cheeks once again. Pitch walks up to me as he sees fear contaminating my eyes. He places his clammy hand on my cheek as I stand there, my plan forming inside my head. I can hear ringing of bells as I stare at the sky.

An evil smirk forms on Pitch's face as he whispers, " You don't need them anymore. You have me, together we can rule! " I turn away, then walk silently a few feet brisk from Pitch. I spin around as I command all my powers to shoot from my palms. It hits Pitch, but he creates a barrier of black sand.

" This if for hurting Jack! " I scream, making the pain and loss from losing Jack explode from my hands into sharp ice. It hits Pitch, and he falls down in the snow. Turning, I can see the peak of North's sleigh as I shake my head. I turn back to Pitch, and he's lying on the ground, a smirk on his face.

" You think you can defeat me? " He challenges, his eyes filled with determination.

" You made the person I love kill me inside. And now, I'm getting revenge. " I state. Glaring at Pitch as he stands up, I aim my hand at him. Taking a deep breathe I conjure all the pain, loss, and fear welled up inside me.

And I just let it go.

The force of the blow makes me stagger backwards, but I hold my ground. Still, as much as I wanted to let Pitch go and never come back, something told me to keep on fighting. Then, my vision turns blue and I can't control what I'm doing any longer. A hazy blue glow consumes the whole entire mountain, making it impossible to see anything. But, I can hear Pitch's cries of terror as the ice hits him from every direction.

My parents, Jack forgetting me, my death, Jack's almost death, the fear of hiding.. it made me so scared inside that, I forgot how much love I received in my lifetime.

At that moment, I thought of how I saved Anna and Jack so many times before this. It's because I love them. Tears spill down my face as the glow dies down. Pitch lays limp on the snow, and I stagger backwards. Tooth and everyone else, rushes towards me. But, I look at my hands in horror. I glance at my hands, then Pitch.

" Oh god, what have I done... " I whisper, my eyes filling with tears. Jack rushes up next to me and places his lips on mine before I can do anything. Parting, Jack's eyes are full of love.

" I remember. " Is all he said, and I swear my heart skipped a beat or two. Grinning, I jump into his arms as he hugs me tightly. The feel of Jack against me once again, makes tears of pure happiness flow down my cheeks. I nestle my head into Jack's shoulder. Sniffling, I part myself from him reluctantly.

" Jack. "

" Elsie. "

" I know my center. "

He tilts his head in wonder as the rest of the guardians approach from the sled. North overhears, and laughs joyfully.

" Go on, Elsa. " Tooth encourages, her eyes filled with relief.

" Love. "

I'm the Guardian of Love.
