Chapter 6: Cave of Truth

Elsa

          I was starting to get anxious walking around this labyrinth... hours have pass since I first step through the maze and I felt like I wasn't any closer to Anna. "Are we almost there?" I ask Jack who was in front of me looking at me or talking to me. "You asked me that five minutes again, and the answer will still be the same, no." I roll my eyes, "You don't have to be a jerk about it." I say as I cross my arms. I could hear him huff but he didn't say anything. I blow my bangs up, what was his deal? First his sweet to me, wanting to help me and wants to date me, now he acting likes he wants me to leave him. I run up to him and start to walk next to him, "You know, this might be a lot more fun if we talked. Maybe get to know each other?" I say. It was hard not to look at him, Jack was way more handsome then Phil James I'll tell you that, he would give Phil James a run for his money.

          Jack looks over at me, "It might not be a good thing to know me more." He says which makes me raise an eyebrow, "Why not? I mean you already told me about your powers, and I'm not scared of you." I say which makes him stop and look at me, one eye gray the other blue. "What color are my eyes?" He asks. "Wh-What?" I ask, I can see the blue eye is starting to be taken over by the gray that will haunt my dreams. He starts to step closer to me, "You wanted to know more about me, tell me what color my eyes are and I will tell you everything." He says. I look behind me to see nothing but dirty and open land.

          "Duck!" I hear a yell as I turn back to Jack, his eyes were both blue now and he wasn't looking at me, he was grabbing me and pulling me down. "Hey!" I yell as I feel something go over my head. I look up to see a giant bird with bright yellow wings and a beak that looked sharp enough to stab someone through the heart. "What was that!?" I ask as Jack helps me up. "A little gift from the King, we have to run, now!" He yells and takes my hand again and we start to run. I look behind me to see the bird flying fast at us. "His catching up..." I say. "I know!" Jack hisses as he starts to slow down. I look to see we were at a dead end.

          "Now what?" I ask moving my fingers through my hair. I can see Jack looking around and placing his hands on the wall. "What are you doing?" I ask and look at the bird; he was moving fast and getting closer. If we didn't find somewhere to hide or run, we'll become shish kabobs. "I'm looking for a lose brick!" He yells and looks at me, "I would love it if you could help!" He yells at me and I flinch before I start to push the bricks. "Come on Elsa!" I hear Jack yell as I start to move faster but I can hear the bird's wings coming closer. "Found it!" Jack yelled as he pushes the brick and the wall moves to the left leaving a hole for Jack and I to walk through.

          He grabs my arm and pulls me in and I feel us start to fall. I scream as I hit water and go in deep. I open my eyes to see Jack looking at me, he points up and starts to swim up I start to follow him, feeling my lungs about to explode. I finally reach the surface and take a deep breath in. I start to cough up water as I look around to see that we're in a cave. A beautiful cave with glowing purple rocks that looked like crystals, it was truly beautiful. I hear coughing from my right as I look to see Jack.

          I feel my eyes widen as I keep watching him, he blonde hair was dripping wet and water was going down his face, his blue eyes matching the water. He moves his hand through his hair and I can see that his shirt is see-through and I can see everything. He looks over at me and smiles, "Well... That was close." I do a small giggle trying not to look at him anymore, "To close." I say as he swims over to me. I don't know why but I start to mess with my hair, trying to make it look somewhat decent as he reaches me. He puts his hand around my wrist and pulls me in, "Are you alright?" He asks in a low voice.
