A/N: Okay, so since my other story is doing surprising well, I have decided to see if this works as well. Honestly, I'm scared to death to upload this 'cause even though I do enjoy this story it's a complicated pain in the ass. However, since I finally got past the writer's block of chapter 4 I'll let a wider audience read this.
A few last things, as the despriction says this story contains both past and present Elsanna. The canon is insect and the modern is not. So in other words you're getting two stories for the price of one, and the chapters do get progressively longer. Errors are all mine, and I'm trying a different title than what is on my AO3 account.
Chapter 1: Prologue/Discovery
Distant howls could be heard from the far-off mountains as it approached closer to the small kingdom of Arendelle. Upon a frozen lake two women stood as snow swirled around them. They both wore different expressions. The elders a composed mask to conceal the overwhelming feelings that stormed inside her. While her younger sisters held reassurance,"-but we have gained so much."
"And destroyed so much more." The harshness of the older woman's tone cut through the air.
Grabbing the elder's hands she pleaded, "We can fix this, Elsa."
Strong cold hands gripped the shaking shoulders of the youthful redheaded girl. Her voice cracking like the ice she controlled. "Please, Anna for once in your life listen to me."
Anna nodded for that was she could do. Her smiled faded finally accepting the cold truth. If she dared to speak more her words would either fail her, or the tears she desired to hold back would fall.
"As your queen, as your sister, and as your . . . as your lover, please run."
"I can't leave you," Anna whispered.
"You must," the queen begged.
Anna wrapped her arm around her sisters neck bringing her closer. She rested her forehead upon hers. "You can stop this, I know you can."
Elsa shoved her way, "This power is stronger than I." With an ever-more shaking hand Elsa reached out caressing Anna's face. "For the sake of our kingdom and," her hand slid down her sisters bare arm stopping over her stomach, "our bloodline. You must do as I say. Whatever is about to happen don't look back, no matter what you hear or see don't come back."
Anna heeded her sisters pleas, but had to go for one last hug. "I l-love y-you E-Elsa," she croaked.
Just those fours words shattered Elsa's heart a thousand time over, and froze her all the way to the crevices of her soul. "You find Kristoff, he'll take you somewhere safe."
Anna sniffled the tears back and began to run away from her sister, her savior, and her one true love. A few feet away she turned regretting her choice, don't come back echoed in her ears. Elsa still stood there, but the white wind began to come closer. She mouthed 'I love you' back to Anna as a lone tear fell from her eye before the queen was engulfed in the white wind.
200 years later:
Alone in the dark tunnels under a long forgotten castle walked Dr. Elsa Fryst forensic anthropologist otherwise known as the 'Ice Queen' by her former co-workers. The woman preferred the company of the dead rather than the living. She enjoyed the silent moments alone on the hunt for something new to discover. Falling to the whims of the sounds of dripping water, and the smells of fading life she journeyed deeper.
Elsa traveled further until she found herself in a room. Cracking a smile she found herself in the Arendelle family crypt. Okay, Elsa this is the moment you have waited and worked your entire life for. To finally solve the mystery of what happened to last of the Arendelle bloodline. Shining her flashlight Elsa began to check the name plates for the one she sought. Coming all the way around she came up empty. Running a hand over her tangled blonde locks she let out a sigh, "I was certain that was she's here. Were my studies worth nothing?"
She shook her head to rid the doubt that dared to cross her mind. Elsa turned seeing a beam of sunlight casting down upon something in the middle in the catacombs. Going up to the object she shone her flashlight upon discovering a statue. Elsa noticed something odd about the statue. It was kneeling upon the floor, her left hand outstretched out as if reaching for something or someone. While her left hand was upon her mouth almost as if she was attempting to hold back some sort of emotion. Elsa bit her lip feeling almost sorry for the animate object. Kneeling down the doctor hesitantly placed her hand interlacing her fingers into the statues'.
Underneath her the ground shook, and a chamber opened up beside her. Shinning her light down the darken space she discovered a set of stairs. Step-by-step she cautiously walked her thoughts were rampant with ideas of what could lie just ahead. Following the dust particle filled light beam, and her intuition she ventured forward dismissing all fear that went through mind. The further down she went the colder the passage grew. Reaching the bottom of her stairs Elsa scanned the area seeing a lone torch, following the line she powder. Pulling out her lighter she lit the torch. The fire blazed lighting up the whole room, and there sat a tomb.
Joy washed over the doctor's face as she approached the tomb. The tips of the fingers danced along the dust covered stone. Blowing it off she touched the snowflakes surrounding the Arendelle crest that sat craved in the middle of the chipping gold paint. Tracing every dust encrusted intricate detail until she came to the end where she found the name plate. Rubbing away the dust, and the cobwebs. Elsa took a quick calming breath seeing it turn to mist before her eyes. The fires glow behind her reflected upon the gold plate illuminating the black letters allowing her to read the etched name. Anna Arendelle whose beauty was one of a kind like a snowflake.
