Beware of the Frozen Heart
The wind stopped. With the storm halting, everything froze in its place; like the tension of a gun battle about to start. All was still except for the sound of her footsteps.
The unsheathing noise of a drawn sword filled Anna's ears.
"Elsa?" She muttered, eyes wide at the scene before her.
Hans. Her lovely, handsome and deceiving Prince of the Southern Isles had his sword in a position ready to strike her own sister. And Elsa kneeled there, subconsciously accepting the unsuspecting blow.
No, She thought to herself. It isn't supposed to end like this.
She looked at Kristoff one last time, letting out a soft cry from her lips. But that cry wasn't just the feeling of the frost slowly etching into her heart, it was a cry of determination to protect the ones she loved. She turned away and headed toward Elsa.
"No!" Anna heard herself yell, desperate to save her sister. She raised her hand up, frantic to take the blow.
For a split second, her petrified eyes met with Hans's. His expression turning into of surprise before she felt the cold rush throughout her body and encasing her into a frozen prison.
Her visioned turned black.
Anna opened her eyes and peered into the darkness around her. She took a step forward, the noise echoing onto the unseen walls of – of where ever she was.
"E - Elsa?" She whispered, shivering not from the cold, but from the sheer fact of her eerie surroundings. "Kristoff–?"
"Beware of the frozen heart."
Her eyes widened in fright, hearing the deep voice. Suddenly she stumbled back, hearing another noise. A shriek of laughter and a scream filled her ears as she crutched her head, frantic to take away the voices.
"FROZEN HEART!" It cackled. "BEWARE."
Anna's eyes darted wildly, desperately trying to find the source of the sound. She stood up straight and backed up, a wall blocking her from going any further. It was silent once again except of her ragged breathing, and the echo of the words that came from nowhere. Dying for somebody is not that rewarding, She mused, trying to find humor in this circumstances.
"Anna..." A distant voice broke through, followed by a heart-wrenching sob.
Anna's breath hitched knowing that voice too well. "Elsa?" She called out.
A sensation went through her chest, like a rubber band slowly relaxing from it's stretched out tension. She groaned at the feeling, dropping on her knees. It spread throughout her body as her eyes clenched tight. She felt arms around her, and heard the source of the weeping. Letting out a breath of air from the unwanted sensation, her visioned cleared and the image of the frozen fjord filled her views.
Anna's blue eyes met with her sister's.
"Anna?" Elsa's voice rang out in surprise.
Anna sighed in exhaustion of what had just occurred, but smiled at the sight of her sister. They fell into a hug, savoring every moment of what was lost, and what was found.
Separating, Elsa looked at Anna in disbelief. "You'd sacrifice yourself for me?"
Flashbacks of being left out at the wrong side of her sister's door filled her head. The unwanted feelings of rejection flowed through her, and she remembered all the times Elsa would tell her to leave.
You don't deserve it, She wanted to say. That thought alone, sent a rush of resentment in her body. Shaking away the sudden phrase, she pasted on her smile for her sister.
"I love you." Anna responded, finally saying it face to face with her sister without any doors to separate them.
Olaf's eyes widened in realization. "An act of true love will thaw a frozen heart!" He exclaimed, his head separating from his body in excitement of the new information he just gathered.
Elsa blinked in surprise. "Love," She gasped. "Of course."
She looked at her hands in a new light, smiling at the simple solution. "Love." She said once more as the snow melted around the two sisters. Anna drew her breath in surprise, grinning at the display of what was happening around the group.
Everyone glanced around as the the snow rose up into the clouds, melting the fjord. They stumbled at the ship's movement when the waters multiplied from the thawed ice. Laughter and cheering could be heard from the villages as Queen Elsa twirled her hands, letting her magic safely disperse into the sunny sky.
"I knew you could do it." Anna remarked, cheekily smiling at her older sister.
"Hands down, this is the best day of my life." Olaf started, slowly melting into the summer sun, "And quite possibly the last."
Elsa bit her lip, in concentration. "Hang on little guy." She stated, remaking him again, and adding a cloud of snow floating above his head.
"Oh!" Olaf jumped in excitement. "My own personal flurry!"
Anna chuckled at Olaf's behavior before a groan of pain interrupted their happiness. Kristoff started approaching Hans, before getting stopped by Anna. She gave him a look and he backed off. Elsa glanced worriedly at her little sister.
Anna stalked slowly towards the Prince as his eyes mimicked the one's he had moments before he struck her. "Anna?" He said, knitting his forehead in confusion. "But, she froze your heart."
"Beware of the frozen heart."
Her determined expression of telling her ex-fiance off faltered into an emotionless mask as the voice echoed through her head.
"The only frozen heart around here is yours." She stated. Turning on her heels, she gave a slight hesitation before twisting back and grabbing Hans's vest, pulling him into her.
"If you ever try to hurt us again, you will regret it." She hissed into his ear. They locked eyes, fear coursing though Hans's veins as he looked into her malice-filled vision. Anna gave a huff of hatred. She clenched her fist and sent it flying to his face. The force of the punch sent him overboard.
She turned back to her sister, the feeling of furiousness from Hans's betrayal slowly disappeared as Elsa hugged her tightly. Anna glanced at Kristoff lovingly, grateful everything was falling in the right place at last.
Or so she thought.
