Chapter 1

It was the first day of winter. Cool air swept through the kingdom of Arendelle as the sun climbed up into the sky. Queen Elsa, now 25 years of age, had just awoken and was staring out her window. She saw that the streets of her kingdom were still quiet. A few people were out and preparing for the day, but a vast majority were only just waking up. She decided that she would prepare for the day herself. Using her magic, she conjured up her usual ice dress, tied her hair in its usual braid, and set out to her study.

Elsa walked passed her sisters room. The door was shut, but she could still hear her sister snoring loudly, which only brought a smile to Elsa's face. Her dear baby sister…It had been four years since she was reunited with Anna. Four years since she coated the entire kingdom with ice and snow, but she had been forgiven by the people, and most importantly, by her sister.

It felt like a pleasant morning. The castle was peaceful, the hallways were quiet, except for a few maids that were busy doing their morning chores, and few birds could be heard chirping from the outside. Yes, it was a beautiful day.

"Maybe I can spend some time with Anna once I finish all my work," she thought to herself. "Perhaps take a walk into town and visit my wonderful subjects."

Elsa finally reached her study. She began to shuffle through some documents. Trade agreements from Corona, several proposals from numerous princes', and some documents having to do with the wellness of her people.

"Well," she said, "the sooner I start, the sooner I can be with Anna."

And with that, she began her work.

About 2 hours passed, then there was a knock at the door.

"Enter."

"Good morning, Your Majesty."

"Ah, good morning, Kai. What brings you here?"

"I was asked by your council members to inform you of a meeting this morning," Kai said.

Elsa gave Kai a puzzled look. "A meeting? What meeting? Nothing was scheduled for this morning."

"That was too my understanding, as well, Your Majesty, but they say that it is of great importance and cannot be delayed further."

Elsa sighed and stood from her desk. "Very well. Where are they at now?"

"They are in the war room waiting for you," Kai stated as he opened the door.

Her eyes opened like saucers. "The war room? What on earth.." Elsa exited her study with great haste, leaving a small trail of ice on the floor.

*Line Break*

Elsa burst through the doors of the war room with a small blast of ice cold air. She immediately noticed the tension of the room. Her council members stood and bowed to her. As she made her way to her chair, she began questioning them.

"What is going on? Why has this meeting been called today, and in all places the war room?"

"Your Majesty, I can explain."

All heads turned to a man wearing a highly decorated soldiers uniform.

"General Mackenzie, you have the floor," she said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. As you already know, we have been hearing rumors of an army forming to the east. I had sent my two of my best spies to see if there was any suspicious activity. Unfortunately, the rumors are true. My spies were able to find a camp with over 100,000 men. They also noticed the flag of Weselton and the flag of the Southern Isles. We also have reason to believe that they are not the only kingdoms involved in this alliance."

Everyone notice how the room temperature suddenly dropped as their eyes fixed on Queen Elsa.

"What other kingdoms would be involved?" she asked.

"We are not sure, Your Majesty, but 100,000 men is a great number, even for Weselton and The Southern Isles combined. If those numbers are true, then Arendelle doesn't stand a chance," said General Mackenzie.

"You're right. We will not stand a chance. I will have to send word to.."

Before Elsa could finish her sentence, a soldier came running through the doors.

"YOUR MAJESTY! There's a fleet of ships making its way to the fjord! They bear the flags of Weselton and The Southern Isles!"

Queen Elsa jumped to her feet and ran out the war room. She made her way to the balcony. When she looked out to the fjord, she was in complete shock. Hundreds of ships covered the seas. They were all stalled in the waters. She then saw a single ship coming to dock. As she looked to the docks, she saw that her men were preparing to fight. She ran back inside to find a quill and a piece of parchment. She wrote a message, then created a messenger bird out of ice and sent it to find General Mackenzie. She watched the bird fly around before swooping down on a shoulder of a man. The man then retrieved the note and opened it. She then heard a faint yell from the man.

"Do not attack! I repeat, do NOT attack!"

The men then lowered their weapons. Relieved that her men received the message, she turned back to the oncoming ship. They slowly pulled their ship into the docks and lowered a ramp. A man escorted by several armed soldiers walked off the ships as General Mackenzie and his soldiers made his way to them. A conversation took place, then the general allowed the foreigners to pass as they made their way to the castle.

*Line Break*

Elsa was already seated in the throne room waiting for these "visitors" that came into her kingdom without warning. She called a maid nearby.

"Blair, could you please wake Anna and help her dress. Tell her to come to the throne room as soon as she's ready."

Blair bowed. "Of course, Your Majesty." She then left in a hurry.

Elsa felt stressed beyond belief. First an army in the east and now a navy right outside her front door.

"Could this day get any worse?" she mentally asked herself, but she had spoken too soon as she saw the doors to the throne room open.

"Hello, Queen Elsa."

"Hans!"
