Hello All! This is a little something I've been working on, I am putting up one chapter for now. I want to see how everyone likes this before I upload more. So please review!

~Prologue~

Every great story has a great beginning. Whether it's an epic adventure that has you on the edge of your seat, or an alluring mystery that keeps you entranced and guessing. The point is, for a story to be great, it has to start out that way. If you're looking for something great, you've come to the wrong place. The ways of the world aren't so simple.

It happened over 100 years ago, when the first man was born with the first special. The ability to push and pull objects with thought alone. It's safe to say that freaked a lot of people out back then, but in today's world, specials are very common. In fact, there are many subsections of the government and the workforce reserved for those with those special abilities. This lead to civil unrest, almost resulting in a civil war. It's not good politically to favor one over the other.

Rules had to be put in place, and compromises had to be made. It didn't look like these specials were going away any time soon. In fact, it was just the opposite. More and more people were born with extraordinary abilities that could either help, or hinder, the country.

Where there was tragedy, there were two seperate forces, run exclusively by the government. A branch of the military that enlisted only the best of the best, with the most devastating of specials, and the Arendelle Special Police Force.

The police force was just as important, almost more than the military unit. While not as picky when it came to who could enlist, they were just as hard pressed to find the very best. They were the face of the cities that dotted the country, helping to keep order and peace, because not every person with a special wanted to do good.

That's what brings us here, to present day Hovedstad, the capital city of Arendelle, with a population of over two hundred and fifty thousand and growing. Over twenty percent of the residents that dwell within the city's limits have some kind of special, whether they know it or not.

But that's enough back story for now. The real tale begins with a young girl, finding her place at the age of thirteen.

Anna Sun, appropriately named after her russet mane. Lightly tanned skin from long days in the sun, dotted with a fine spread of freckles over her nose and cheeks. Green eyes, more turquoise than green really, were bright and friendly.

Honestly, who wouldn't want to be friends with this bubbly redhead?

She had dreamt of joining the ASPF for as long as she could remember, and she worked hard to do so. She'd only discovered her special a few years before, but she worked everyday to master it before the time came to apply for the Arendelle Special Police Academy.

It took years of hard work, good grades, and an almost flawless grade in your public communications class. All in all, it was exhausting, But Anna was determined, and worked hard to keep her grades up, and distractions down. Which honestly was hard for the cheerful redhead. She had a tendency to forgo her studies for video games and fanfiction, but no one needed to know that.

She was on her way from school on a crisp October afternoon, her book bag slung over her shoulders as she shuffled lazily. All she wanted to do was get home, shower, and spend the rest of her night playing online with her friends. Class had been exceedingly tiring that morning, and she felt she deserved a break from her studies. Even if her parents disagreed.

She may not be at the top of her class, but what she lacked in natural talent, she made up with sheer determination. Which was a perfect compliment to her special.

Anna hung a left, waltzing across a quiet street and down until she was strolling past the park. She walked past it every morning and every afternoon. The park was nestled in a quiet suburb, far from the heart of Hovedstad, and surrounded by a chain link fence. At this time of day the park was empty, but she knew it'd be filling with children soon. Their lessons also over for the day. Further up along the sidewalk the park was blocked from view by a hedge that spread the rest of the length of fence. So when Anna reached that point it was the last thing she expected, to be stopped by a piercing noise in the distance.

It came so suddenly, loud enough even in the distance to make her flinch. She knew it couldn't have been something ordinary, even though her mind liked to make her believe it was. When was anything in Arendelle ever ordinary though?

It was someone's special.

Curiosity pulled at her. She knew it as against the law to use your special in public without a special license or a life or death situations. She wondered which it was, and why was it coming from the park.

She walked a bit faster, her backpack jostling as she tried to find a gap between the hedges so she could get a peek. The noise was getting louder as she trotted up the hedge line, her ears rang from the force that it was putting on her drums.

Finally she came to an opening in the shrubs, and as she pushed against the chain link fence to get a better look the sound began to fade. It was then that she saw them, three boys at the edge of the park, hidden in the thick foliage. They were huddled over something in front of them, but Anna couldn't see from her current angle. She had to crane her neck and climb onto the fence to get a better view.

When she saw the fourth boy, curled into a ball in the dirt in front of them, she gasped. What were they doing to the poor boy!?

She couldn't see his face from where she stood, only that he was wearing a thick wool cap that he had pulled down over his head, as if trying to hide from the others in front of him. He was gripping the hat so tightly his knuckles were white from the strain.

"Do it again!" A portly boy yelled, cackling as if he'd heard the best joke ever.

Anna could see the others nodding in approval, and if they said anything, she couldn't have know.

The tallest boy stood in the center, his back towards where Anna hid. He was tall and slender, with dark curls that hung over his ears and the back of his neck. He was easily sixteen, and obviously the leader of the three.

He lifted his right hand, palm flat and facing the boy on the ground before him. Anna had no time to brace herself for the high pitched screech that followed the action. She slapped her hands over her ears, cringing and straining to watch. Even over the noise and through her hands she could hear him, the boy on the ground screaming. He was holding his hands over his ears and cap tighter than before. He looked to be in far worse pain than Anna herself.

It was then she decided, she had to do something to help him. She couldn't just let these bullies get away with it. How would she ever get into the academy, let alone live with herself, if she didn't do something?

She dropped her bag from her arms, tensing as the onslaught of noise hit her. She pulled herself up and over the fence, but kept herself hidden in the thick shrubs.

There was only one thing that was making her hesitate. Her special. She knew what it could do, and she knew what to do, but that didn't stop her heart from pounding hard in her chest. She looked down at her clenched fists, watching as they shook lightly.

It was something she hadn't told anyone yet, and even denied a bit herself. She still hadn't completely mastered her special, and when she was in a situation where actions took over, she lost the restraint it needed. If only for a moment.

You're only 13, you've got plenty of time to learn.

She told herself that often, and it was true. She couldn't apply for the academy until she was 18, she had plenty of time to work on her control That didn't help her in the here and now, however.

She took a deep breath, steadying her frayed nerves, and stepped out of the hedge.

Only the portly boy from before had noticed her. He smirked at her, and shook the tallest boy's shoulder. The dark haired boy shook his companion off, and kept his attention on his victim squirming at his feet.

Anna kept a steady pace, glaring at the back of the boy's head. She could feel the heat of adrenaline start to pulse through her limbs. Her heart pounded, and she gulped down the nerves as they came.

You can do this, you can do this.

Like a mantra, she repeated the words as she approached the boys.

Finally the other boy, short and stocky, with a head of long golden hair, noticed her advances. He gave her a once over, obviously not impressed with this feeble looking girl walking towards them.

The roaring began to subside, and the tall boy began to laugh to himself.

What an ass!

This was her chance. She took the last few steps, stopping only a few feet from he trio.

"Hey!" she called.

Pig boy and bondie, as she so kindly nic-named them, turned to face her fully, while dark boy only turned his head to peek at her. He looked down on her, through a pair of dark green eyes.

Those eyes, dark and full of anger sent a shiver down her spine, but she only lifted her chin and met his gaze.

"Leave him alone." She glanced down at the boy, he was sniffling, and pressing his face into the dirt, almost as if to hide.

Dark boy raised a brow and turned to face her, as if to challenge her. That's what she was here for, wasn't it?

"Oh? And what are you going to do if i don't?" His voice was low and rough, as if this boy spent most of his time smoking in the dark.

He probably does.

Anna gulped, and then glanced down at his hands. They were hanging at his sides lazily, but she knew that was the source of his special. She crossed her arms over her chest, ignoring the fact that she was a thirteen year old, tiny and thin, about to threaten a group of highschoolers.

"I'll have to make you," her voice was steadier than she thought it was going to be.

Pig-boy and blondie began to cackle at his sides, but dark boy just stared at her. His expression was dark and unreadable.

And then he was bright, moving before Anna had a chance to register it. He had his hand pulled back, fingers curled into a fist, before he swung. What kind of boy swings at a thirteen year old girl!?

As fate would have it however, he had swung at the wrong thirteen year old. Anna's reflexes were quick, she worked on her physical aspects as much as her academic, and she managed to grip his wrist before he made contact. She held firm, but as gentle as she could manage and still keep him trapped.

She gave his wrist a slight bend, backwards towards his chest. Not enough to break it, but enough to inflict some pain. Dark boy hissed, his knees giving way. His knees hit the dirt, and he struggled to pull his wrist free.

There was no way he was getting out of her grip.

"What the fu-" he breathed.

She could hear his friend's surprised breaths, and then the shuffle of their feet as they moved to help their leader. She squeezed, a light squeeze to her, but an almost bone crushing pressure to him, and he let out a cry.

"Unless you want me to break it I'd stay back," she quipped, barley turning to look at pig-boy's shocked face.

They halted their movements, and she smirked before turning back to her captive. He was glaring up at her, eyes dark and defiant.

"This is how you use your special, right?" addressing his hand, she didn't expect him to answer, and he didn't. "The three of you leave now and I'll let you walk away still being able to use it".

He sneered at her, angry and considering his options. She could see it in his eyes. Did he want her to break his wrists and chance not being able to use his special until they healed?

Apparently he did not want that, cause he gave her a curt nod, even with the death glare. She released her grip then, and he pulled his hand into his chest, rubbing the bruise around the soft tissue. Pig-boy and blondie attempted to help their companion, but were pushed off angrily as they stalked away. Like dogs with their tails between their legs.

Anna watched them go, but soon turned her attention to the last boy. He was sitting up now, his head down in the palms of his hands. She dropped to his side, not knowing the boy, but wanting to offer any help she could.

"Are you okay?" she probed.

He nodded mutely, sighing deeply into his hands, "I can't believe I was saved by a little girl".

It was quiet, but she heard it.

"Hey! I'm not that small!" she crossed her arms, pouting to herself momentarily.

The boy chuckled lightly, and then lifted his head. His brown eyes were red and swollen to match the angry bruise that was forming on his chin. Anna could see the beginnings of dirty blonde hair peeking out from under his cap.

"Thank you, uh….."

"Oh! I'm Anna!" she was being loud, she knew, but she did that sometimes. This boy didn't seem to mind, too much.

"I'm Kristoff," he smiled lightly and rubbed at his eyes, " and Leon likes to take advantage".

Anna assumed that Leon had been dark boy, but let that thought stay silent. She raised a brow at the latter, however. Kristoff seemed to understand her silent questioning, because he shifted to lean back on one hand, and used the other to tug at his cap. He pulled the material off his head completely, and Anna was drawn immediately to the pointed end of Kristoff's ears.

She covered her mouth to halt a giggle. He looked like an elf!

Kristoff glared at her, but it was half-hearted, and then returned his hat to his head. "My ears are really sensitive, and he likes to use his special to torture me".

Anna nodded, it made sense, but why would he do that? Kristoff seemed to be a great guy! Well, so far.

"So, strength?" Kristoff asked quietly.

Anna perked up, grinning stupidly at his guess. She nodded happily, knowing that this would be the beginning of a great friendship.

~5 Years Later~

"I can't believe I'm here!"

In the heart of Hovedstad sat the Arendelle Special Police Force Academy. Walled off by concrete, more than likely to prevent the city or any of its citizens from being victim of any cadet gone wild. The main building was large and modern, tall walls painted white and grey. That was where the classes were held. At least the academic ones. As for the physical, there was a large area stationed back into the complex. Far enough away from the main campus building to prevent any accident with specials trainings. A track surrounded the very center field. Each was fitted with a different type of obstacle course or test.

Stationed to the far end of campus sat the dormitories. Unlike the main hall, the buildings were large and dated. They'd been standing for longer than the academy itself, likely renovated from some factory from way back when. It was absolutely beautiful, like a forgotten world smack dab in the middle of a grand city. The early summer breeze bringing with it the scent of hard work and ambition.

What does that even smell like?

"Calm down, feisty pants," Kristoff was next to her, hauling his luggage behind him.

Anna bounced in place, there was no way she'd be able to calm down. She'd been dreaming of coming here for as long as she could remember. Everything was just as she imagined it, well, maybe not exactly, but it was still pretty damn exciting.

Kristoff chuckled and placed his large hand on the top of her head, jokingly trying to keep her from bouncing. He knew he'd never be able to keep her still if she really didn't want him to, but she settled anyway. Anna glanced up at her best friend, he was wearing that stupid wool cap that he always wore, he liked to keep his ears covered as much as possible. She didn't see why, but she never pushed the subject. He was looking straight ahead, a small smile on his face. He was excited too, he just didn't want to show it.

She rolled her eyes at him and then turned her attention to the person strolling towards them. They'd just piled out of a bus carrying most of their classmates, and everyone was hovering around the entrance to the complex, not sure what to do with themselves. She could hear them murmuring to each other, about what though, she couldn't tell.

She glanced up at Kristoff once more, eyes hopeful. She knew he could hear everything they were saying. He side-eyed her, smiled, and shook his head with and amused roll of his eyes. He knew her too well. Anna opened her mouth to say something, but was interrupted by a gruff clearing of the throat. Every head turned towards the man, eyes wide and lips sealed.

Anna regarded the man closely, he was a tall man, taller than even Kristoff, but twice as round. He had the weirdest mutton chop/mustache combo she had ever seen. He wore dark pressed slacks, with a light blue button down that was hazardly tucked into the waist of his pants. He looked formal, but his soft smile had Anna relaxing without even realizing it. It was like she was drawn towards this man, like he had enough warm and loving energy to rival even Santa!

Okay that was just a ridiculous thought.

Anna didn't have time to dwell, because the large man began to speak,

"My name is Oaken. I've been giving the lovely task of showing you each to your rooms".

His tone was bright and cheerful, and clearly it had an affect on everyone around him. The murmuring around them resumed, as everyone contemplated who they'd be bunking with. Anna frowned, she didn't know anyone else here. No one besides Kristoff, and they definitely wouldn't let them bunk together. She just hoped she didn't get anyone too weird.

Half an hour later and they were finally reaching the women's quarters. Anna had been left alone just minutes into their housing tour.

Damn him and his last name.

They were partnered off by last name, and seeing as his was Bjorn, he was ushered off fairly soon. Where as Ann was stuck waiting until almost the last minute. The crowd had begun to dwindle by the time her name was called, so it wasn't hard to guess which person she'd be living with for the next six months.

To her luck it didn't end up being the obnoxious girl she had been trying to ignore the entire walk.

"Rapunzel Sturgis and Anna Sun".

Anna perked up, finally having her name called. She just wanted to get her things settled so she could explore. She stepped forward, meeting a girl with ridiculously long blonde hair in front of their new room.

"227, enjoy ladies," Oaken gave them each a key, and the ushered the rest of the group on to the next rooms.

Anna wasted no time, she shoved the key into the knob and threw the door open, maybe a little harder than intended, because it hit the wall behind it with a large crash. She winced, expecting the door to crack and the wall to crumble, but she was met with no evidence of her misdeed.

That was lucky.

She heard chuckling from behind her, and whipped around. She'd forgotten than the other girl was there. She gave the blonde a sheepish smile, "oops".

Rapunzel only giggled and waved a hand to dismiss her,

"Strong one eh?"

Anna nodded dumbly, grinning and the woman in front of her. She offered a hand, gently,

"I'm Anna".

Her hand was greeted promptly with a gentle squeeze,

"Rapunzel, nice to meet you".

Anna shuffled into the room, pulling her things in behind her and moving to one side. The room wasn't much, but it would be enough for them both to share comfortably. Two beds, sitting one one each wall across from each other, and two desks sitting side by side made up the majority of the space. At the end of each bed, pressed against each wall were two average sized dressers. Each one had two sets of cadet uniforms and boots atop them. Neatly pressed and shined, with a simple black belt and cap reading ASPF.

Anna grinned to herself, she was way beyond excited. She didn't even unpack, instead she shuffled her things onto the bed that Rapunzel hadn't occupied, and started towards the door.

"Where are you going?" came Rapunzel's small voice.

Anna's hand stopped on the doorknob, she turned and gave her a soft smile,

"I wanna get a good look around befo-"

Her words were cut off by a shrill beeping noise, followed by a gruff female voice.

"All cadets report to training field A"

Anna frowned and Rapunzel giggled lightly.

Guess I'll be looking later.

Anna stood adorned in her fresh cadet's uniform , hands behind her back and her chin up. They were lined up across the empty field, the one surrounded by the track. She was nervous and excited all at the same time, shifting her eyes over her classmates excitedly. She didn't get the chance to observe everyone, she hadn't even seen Kristoff since they'd went their separate ways.

A woman, tall and fair skinned with a mane of dark hair pinned to her head strolled in front of them. She regarded each cadet individually, raking her brown eyes up and down them as she passed.

"Straighten up," he voice was rough and raw, demanding and a little terrifying. The cadet she addressed straightened their back, and Anna could swear she heard it pop from the action.

The woman strode forward once more, only stopping to regard a cadet closer. Until she reached Anna.

The redhead gulped visibly, she could literally feeling the intensity of the woman's eyes on her. She looked Anna up and down, an unidentifiable look in her eyes. Before saying anything, she turned, took ten steps away from the group, and made an about-face.

"I'd like to personally welcome you all to the ASPF academy," her voice was stern, steady, and authoritative, "my names is Verda, you will refer to me as Captain". Her tone left no room for arguments. There were a few murmurs from the crowd, but they were silenced by Verda's gaze.

"Each day you'll spend your mornings in class, learning our very carefully crafted laws and regulations. In the afternoons you'll be spending your time training your bodies to handle the intense hours you'll be putting in, if you graduate," Verda lifted her chin, "now, everyone on the line, first drill starts now"!

"My feet are killing me," Anna groaned as she knelt in the grass.

If she thought she was in shape before, she was sadly mistaken. Her legs felt like jelly, her lungs burned with each heave. It was late into the afternoon, and all she wanted to do was lie down in her bed, which she hadn't even made yet. She groaned.

"All right everyone, I'll see you bright and early. Hit the showers," Verda turned to walk away.

"Oh thanks God," Anna grumbled loudly.

Verda stopped in her tracks, her heels digging into the earth below. She turned abruptly, her dark eyes zeroing in on Anna. The redhead stood straight, her back rigid and her palms sweating as Verda approached her.

"Are you tired, cadet?"

"N-no Captain!" Anna sputtered.

Verda scanned the crowd, "You all may leave, and you," her chocolate eyes meeting Anna's, "you get to run laps".

11:30pm.

That was when Anna was finally dismissed from her own personal punishment. Her feet ached, and she was dying for a shower. She shuffled to her dorm, and as she expected Rapunzel was sound asleep. Anna quietly pulled her towel from her still packed luggage before turning to shuffle through the quiet hall. All she could think was shower, shower, shower, shower.

She was so tired and distracted that she didn't even notice the sound of running water as she entered the women's showers. She yawned, stretching her arms above her head. It wasn't until she placed her towel on the bench in front of one of the showers did she notice the water turn off. She turned her head towards the shower that had just been running. It was almost midnight, who else would be in the showers at this hour?

She fumbled with her towel for a moment, her curiosity growing. She just wanted to see who on earth could be down here all alone at this hour. She was about to get her answer.

A slim hand reached to grab the pristine pressed towel that hung on the hook outside the shower stall. Anna watched as the towel slid through the curtain, before it was pulled open.

It was like the world started to run in slow motion, from the moment she watched that long pale leg step out into the open. The towel, that was once hung up, was now wrapped around a slender form. Anna slid her eyes up, over milky shoulders that dripped and glistened in the low light glow of the shower room.

Long platinum hair hung wet and heavy down a slender back, and as Anna's eyes met the icy blues of this stranger, her heart thundered in her chest.
