Elsa walked alone in the palace gardens. It had been a year since her return to the kingdom after the eternal winter she accidentally cursed upon Arendelle. Elsa would never admit it to her sister, especially not with the upcoming wedding, but sometimes Elsa lost control of her powers. Elsa was scared she would hurt Anna again. She knew she couldn't leave again, Anna would sought her out, but she didn't know how to control it. The trolls couldn't help, they said she needed true love, she truly loved her sister, Anna. So why wasn't it working? Did she not love enough? Was it because Anna is in love with Kristoff? No it couldn't be, Anna was in love with Kristoff when Elsa stopped the eternal winter.

Suddenly Elsa saw a flutter of white out of the corner of her eye. A whole rose bush was frosted over.

Elsa gasped, "No!" Grabbing her hands she tried to hide them. Taking in a deep breath she brought one hand forward and willed the frost to melt away. Nothing happened.

"What?" Elsa looked at her hand and then brought it forward to try again. Again nothing happened. "What's going on?" Elsa looked at both her hands, she never had a problem getting ice to go away, not after the eternal winter. She only had troubles about when she produced snow and ice. Looking back up, the frost was gone.

Elsa was confused, her heart started to race. Deciding she needed a break, Elsa ran inside the palace to hide in her room.

"Oh hi Elsa!" Anna said as her sister ran in, "I was wondering do you think--" Elsa ran past Anna without a second glance. "Oh, ok."

Anna looked over at Kristoff, her fiancé, "What do you think that was about?"

Kristoff shrugged, "Last time she was that frantic she couldn't control her powers."

Anna thought for a moment, "I'm just gonna go check on her."

Anna walked up the giant castle stairs and knocked on her sisters door, cracking it open Anna said, "Elsa? Do you wanna build a snowman?"

Anna heard Elsa laugh from inside her room, "C'mon in Anna."

Pushing the door open further Anna walked inside, "Hey you seemed frantic, what's up?" Anna looked down at Elsa's hands, she was wearing the gloves she used to wear when she couldn't control magic, "Elsa...what's going on?"

Elsa looked down at her hands then up to Anna, "It's nothing, I just...I think I'm going to stay at the ice palace tonight."

Anna's brow furrowed, "Why?"

"Well it's been a while since I've used my powers and I don't want to explode and put Arendelle in a eternal winter again. I think I just need to go and explode on the mountain."

Anna eyed Elsa suspiciously, "Elsa, are you loosing control of your powers?"

Elsa sat straight up, "What? No, no I'm fine, really. It's just, well you can only suppress something so long. I mean I did it my whole life until the coronation, we all know how that turned out."

Anna slowly nodded, "Ok."

"Elsa's fake smile faltered, "Do you need me here?" Elsa hit her hand on her forehead, "You're wedding, oh my goodness! You must be so stressed, no I'll stay."

This time Anna sat up straight, "No! Oh my goodness no! Everything's great, no go, spend the night at the ice palace, get your explosion out. I'll be fine for one night. It's one night, right?"

Elsa smile and placed a hand on her sisters arm, "Yes, it's just for the night."

"Ok good, but tomorrow you're helping me find a dress, I'll pick you up from the ice palace."

"Ok."

Anna squeezed her sisters hand, "Alright I'm going to go check on Kristoff, I think he's the most stressed. I'll see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

Once the door shut Elsa sighed, placing her fingers on her temples she gave herself a massage.

"Alright lets go."

Elsa grabbed a small suitcase, one with just enough room for a pair of pajamas and a toothbrush. Just before she left Olaf walked in.

"You mean to tell me that you're going to the ice palace without me?"

Elsa sighed and smiled, "I thought you'd want to stay here and help with wedding preparations."

Olaf's jaw dropped, "Are you crazy? They're all super stressed out! There's no room for play time or warm hugs, if you ask me it's a bad idea that they're getting married."

"Olaf!"

"What? Now they have to deal with this wedding! I mean it's so annoying! Just stay in love and stay together, we don't need a party! That's for birthdays! But I do love parties, but you don't need a year to plan one," Olaf gasped, "Will there be a piñata at this party! Oh! I just I've parties! And we can have a pony and a--"

"Olaf." Elsa said pulling him back to reality.

"Hmm? Oh yeah, what's up?"

"Do you want to come to the ice palace with me?"

Olaf beamed, placing his hands in his cheeks, "Really!? I'd love to! Let's go!"

Elsa laughed, "Alright, we're going."

After a small hike Elsa and Olaf reached the ice palace. Elsa hadn't been back for a year, it wasn't how she remembered. It was melted and refrozen, half of the palace had crashed to the ground.

"Well this won't do." Elsa said, with a wave of her hand the ice palace put itself back together.

"Oh! It's beautiful." Olaf exclaimed.

"Alright, I'm going to go to my room, you take the guest room." Elsa said opening the door, "Oh, and I think Marshmallow has missed you."

Olaf gasped, "Marshmallow is still here!?"

As if on cue the snow giant walked around the side of the castle.

"Elsa! Olaf!" Marshmallow exclaimed.

Olaf gasped again, "Little brother!"

Olaf ran over and hugged Marshmallow's big toe. Reaching down Marshmallow picked up Olaf and held him in the palm of his hand.

"Well bye Elsa! Called Olaf, "I'm gonna hang with Marshmallow."

"Ok, bye boys! Be safe!"

Elsa walked inside of the castle. Taking in a deal breath she relaxed her body. The freezing winds and sharp smell of ice penetrated her body. She smiled, the ice castle was a home sweet home for her. Though she loved the castle in Arendelle, the ice castle was more her element.

Running upstairs Elsa jumped into her ice bed. Being able to control ice and snow had many benefits. One being that it didn't bother her, to Elsa a bed of ice was as comfy as a down bed.

A flicker of white fluttered in the corner of her eye. Turning her head she saw frost on her window. The most curious thing, her window was made of ice. Could frost be on ice?

Suddenly the frost moved, it became a silhouette of a girl, from her hands flew magic creating a palace, a small snowman and a large snowman.

Elsa looked at her hands, she wasn't doing this. "Who's doing this?" She said to herself. Opening the window Elsa stepped into to balcony, she turned her head to the right, no one, to the left, no one. Turning back to the right Elsa gasped. From what used to be an empty space, a boy holding a large wooden crook stood. The boy was wearing blue capris and a blue sweater. His hair was snow white and his eyes were a beautiful shade of blue. Elsa was immediately taken aback by his good looks.

He smiled, a smile that could melt butter, "Hi, I'm Jack Frost."
