Hey so this is my first attempt at a fanfic so please don't be too harsh. Constructive criticism is greatly appreciated however. If you like it let me know because I hope to keep updating. And if you have any suggestions or requests on what you want to see, I'm very open to ideas so just post them in the comments. It will definitely be getting more exciting as the story gets moving. Other than that read and I hope you enjoy!
It had been six years since Anna had seen her sister. Six years since her parents died. Six years since she was just a princess with no worries or cares. But today that was all going to change. Today, Anna was to be crowned the new queen of Arendelle. She thought back to her childhood and when her relationship with Elsa had gone downhill.
Since she was eight, Elsa had shut herself in her room and refused to come out. Anna had absolutely no idea why. One day they'd been best friends, and the next day Elsa was ignoring her pleas to go play in the snow. Then came the day when her parents went on that fateful voyage to her cousin Rapunzel's wedding in Corona. They were only supposed to be gone a month. Two months went by, and there was no sign of the Arendelle monarchs. They were officially proclaimed dead. Anna begged and pleaded with Elsa to come to the memorial service, but Elsa refused. Anna was forced to bury her parents alone.
When Anna came back from the cemetery, she tried knocking on Elsa's door to see if she could get a response, but as usual, Elsa was silent. Frustrated, Anna decided she was going in there whether Elsa wanted her to or not, so she had Gerda, one of the servants, fetch the key to Elsa's bedroom. Anna took a deep breath and turned the key in the lock. Even though it was a huge invasion of privacy, it was only the two of them and Anna really needed the support of her sister more than ever. She had to push the door harder then expected, but finally it opened onto a room that was completely frosted over. There was no sign of Elsa though. Anna sank to her knees and started to sob. She stayed slumped on the ground until Gerda came and led the exhausted young princess to bed.
Anna slept until noon the next day and was feeling much better. Still sad, but much more refreshed. She ordered the guards to set up a search party and systematically search all of Arendelle for her missing sister. Then she called Gerda into her bedroom. "Gerda, you've worked in this castle since before Elsa and I were born. Can you tell me what in God's name happened to Elsa's room?!"
Gerda looked uncomfortable for a second, then sighed and said,"Your sister has ice powers. She loses control of them when her emotions get to strong which is probably why her room was so... wintry".
"How come I didn't know about this?"
"You did when you were younger except Elsa hurt you one day when you were playing. The trolls were able to heal you, but in the process they took away your memories of Elsa's powers."
"So now there's trolls? What's next? Magical dragons that sing songs and play the bongos?"
"Believe what you want Your Highness, but what I'm telling you is the truth."
"I need time to think about this Gerda. This is pretty unbelievable even to me. I mean, how is it that I can just forget all about stuff like that one day?" Anna sat in her room; contemplating what Gerda had just told her. She was having a hard time believing any of it, even though she had an active imagination and a love of fairy tales.
Later that day, the search party returned and reported that there had been no sign of Elsa, and nobody had any idea where she might have gone. Anna was worried, but if what Gerda said was true, Elsa could probably take care of herself, so she told the guards to go out again in another day or two. The guards looked for Elsa over the course of a month, but they never found her. Eventually Anna gave up looking and made a public announcement saying Elsa was dead. She then focused her efforts on preparing herself for when she became queen.
(6 years later)
Anna woke up late as usual, so one of the servants was banging on her door telling her to get up. The she realized it was coronation day and the wave of emotions hit her. She was excited to become queen. Think of the power! She was nervous to become queen. What if she screwed up royally? But most of all she was sad that she was becoming queen. After all, if Elsa hadn't disappeared all those years ago, Elsa would be the one wearing the crown now, not Anna. The servants were all bustling around getting things ready for the festivities that would take place after the ceremony was over. Gerda was expected to show up any minute to help Anna get dressed.
After Anna got dressed, she went into her father's study and stood in front of the life size painting of him. "Please Father, give me strength so I can get through this day and then rule the kingdom wisely and not run it into the ground or totally destroy it in the first week." Then there was a lot of sitting and waiting until finally Anna was moved to the palace chapel where the ceremony would take place. After she was crowned, she curtsied to the crowd as was expected, except her crown slipped off her head and hit the stone floor with a thud. There was a collective gasp from the room as Anna picked it up and hastily stuck it back on her head. It was crooked, but nobody dared say anything.
The incident was soon forgotten however once the party started. Everyone was having a great time dancing and talking and eating. Ever since Elsa's isolation, the gates had mysteriously been shut as well, so it was the first time in over 10 years that the castle gates were open to other people. The night was mostly a blur of names and faces as countless royals introduced themselves to Anna. There was one man though who looked sort of like a rodent with his big nose and disproportionately large head that had asked Anna to dance at least twice already. Eventually she couldn't take it and she agreed. He took her hand, dragged her onto the dance floor and started jumping around like an agile peacock as he put it. Just as he spun Anna and dipped her though (her crown nearly fell off again), the doors blew open with a cold blast of air, and in walked a stunning blonde woman in a black dress that looked like ice, and a handsome auburn haired man. Everyone froze, and the room went silent. The blonde took in the crowd and finally spotted Anna with her crown just barely hanging on her head. Gliding over as if skating on ice, the woman smirked and said, "Oh don't stop dancing on my account. I just came to celebrate with my little sis".
Again this is my first fanfic so any suggestions or comments you have are great. Hope you enjoyed! More is coming soon.
