A/N: Welcome to our new story and our first Frozen story! We hope you like it!


Chapter 1

Elsa, the new Queen of Arendelle stood on the balcony of her ice castle. She had not known where else to go after her freak out back at home. Now she was alone, though on the plus side she didn't have to concern herself with hiding her powers any more not here, here she was free at least to a degree.

As she stared out over the snow covered Mountain tops, she noticed a small bit of movement near the base of her new home. She quickly froze an ice trail straight down from the balcony and slid down to investigate on guard.

At the bottom she was surprised to find a very young boy. He couldn't be more than about 5 if she had to guess. He had short spikey platinum blonde hair, and deep blue eyes, with pale skin. He was dressed in a short sleeved blue shirt and white pants and for someone so young and up so high he was not shivering. He did however jump and fall over when she landed beside him. He got back up soon though and despite having fallen into the snow STILL not shivering. "Sorry, I didn't realize anyone else was up here then I came across… this."

"It's alright I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you. This is my home...well my new home anyway. What are you doing all the way up here anyway? You're pretty young to be alone, especially here."

He looked down sadly, "I have been alone for a while now I used to travel with my brother, but we got separated in a storm I don't know how many days ago that was, and my parents...they don't like me," he said.

"Why don't they like you?" Elsa asked surprised.

"I'm sort of...not normal. I can show you but you have to promise not to hurt me." He said avoiding looking her in the eye and biting his lip.

"I promise I won't hurt you," she said but had to add mentally, 'on purpose.'

"Well...okay." He sighed and held his hands out one palm facing the other and he made a small icicle connecting his hands and then he dissolved it into several snowflakes that blew away in the wind.

"I can't believe it," Elsa breathed. "I didn't think there was anyone else."

"What do you mean?" He asked cautiously.

"Did you think the castle came out of nowhere?" she asked and turned her own palm up forming a vine like ice sculpture.

"That's amazing! I thought it was just me!" he said smiling.

"Born with the powers or cursed?" she asked dissolving her own sculpture remembering the troll asking that on the dreadful day.

"I have always been able to do this or at least since I can remember. What about you?"

"Born, I had been locked alone in my room for many years since I almost killed my sister."

"They locked you up? That's bad," he said.

"I didn't really think anything of it. They said it was to protect me and everyone else."

"My parents just decided that they didn't want me anymore."

"At so young?"

"Well, I was their second child, and then they had one that was normal so...out I went."

"That's terrible."

"Yeah, but my big brother came with me. He always there for me until recently."

"I'm here for you now."

"You are really?" He asked a hopeful smile coming to his face.

"Yes I am."

She was surprised when he ran over and hugged her. "Thank you. My names Lucas by the way," he said.

"Elsa," she said clearly very awkward and thrown back by the hug.

"That's a pretty name," he said, stepping back and noticing her look.

"Did I do something wrong?"

"I just haven't touched another person for over twice as long as you've been alive."

"Well, why not? You seem nice to me."

"I might hurt then like I did Anna."

"You didn't mean to hurt her though."

"Which means it could happen again."

"Well you can't hurt me we're the same." He said.

"Which is why you can stay. It's like I just forgot the feeling."

"So, I'm still welcome?"

"Yes you are."

He hugged her again. "Thank you, Elsa. Can I see the inside?"

"Of course, just follow me."

He grabbed her hand as she led him in. "Unbelievable," he breathed, looking around the entry. "You made this all with your powers?"

"Yeah, you can do that. You can make ice from every limb not just your hands," she said.

"I didn't know that actually."

"Yeah, try it," she said.

He pointed his foot down tracing in around the floor. He was surprised when the ice had a pattern along on the floor. "That's really cool."

"Yeah, that's how I made the floor and stairs."

"You're really good at this stuff."

"Yeah, it took me a while."

"How long did this take you to make?"

"Not too long really."

"Amazing."

"You really think so?"

"Yeah."

"Well, thank you." She said. "Want to see the rest?" Elsa offered. He nodded excitedly. She smiled and led him up the stair case.

She showed him everything, but eventually at the top floor balcony where she had first seen him the small boy let out a small yawn. "Maybe you should get some sleep."

"Okay."

"When did you last?"

"Before I was separated from my brother, he used to let me sleep close so he wouldn't lose me."

"So not for a few days?"

"Yeah, I guess so."

"Sleep then."

"I don't want to be alone though."

"I'm here."

"You won't leave?"

"I promise."

"Okay." He yawned leaning against her side. He had fallen asleep fairly quickly. She smiled picking him up he was not heavy and carrying him around. She came up here to be alone but maybe she did need him as much as he needed her.


Before she could think more on that there was a knock at her door. She bit her lip but without much thought opened the door from there with her powers. "Elsa, are you here?" Her sister's voice called.

"Anna," she breathed in a mix of surprise and nerves far too soft for Anna too hear but did come into view, Lucas still in her arms.

"Elsa, I knew this had to be you!" She said excited then seeing the sleeping boy. "Who's that?" Anna asked.

"Anna, this is Lucas and please be quiet he's sleeping." She said softly.

"Right, sorry," she said in a very Anna like fashion, "but we need you to come back."

"No, Anna, I don't belong there you can go back, be queen, get married like you wanted." She said stroking Lucas' hair.

"Elsa, you don't understand. Arendelle needs you."

"No, I'm just a danger there. Besides, Lucas needs me."

"You already put them in danger."

"What?"

"All of Arendelle and who knows what else is frozen over in an eternal winter and you're the only one who can stop it."

"What, but I can't stop it!"

"Yes you can. I know you can."

"No, I can't I don't even know how I froze it."

"How would it be any different if you did?"

"I don't know, but I can't just go please just leave me alone.

"No, Elsa, please!"

"I can't help, Anna."

"I'm sure you can if try."

"Anna, please."

"You can't just abandon everyone."

"I can't go back."

"You have to try."

"I can't do it"

"You're the only one that stands a chance."

"Please, just go," she said, backing away holding Lucas close.

She was so locked in the argument that she didn't notice Lucas was starting to stir. Lucas looked over as the argument started to get louder. He made a snow monster similar to the one Elsa did in canon.

Both of them jumped as it approached. "Leave her alone!" Lucas said in his small voice.

Anna's eyes were the size of dinner plates and the monster picked her up. "Hey, put me down!" She said kicking and trying to get away.

The monster just took her our and threw her into a pile of snow. "STAY OUT!" It shouted and the stood in front of the door.

She got up and collected a snowball throwing it at the monster. That was not the right thing to do because it came after her, Olaf, and Christoph. "Nice move, anger the giant snow monster." Christoph said and they all ran.

"Oh, shut up, it was created by a kid. I didn't expect it to be that protective."

"Wait, a kid?"

"Yes, that's what I said."

"How?"

"I don't know. He was with Elsa."

"How did she get him?"

"I don't know!"

"Why yell at me?"

"Because you keep asking things I clearly don't know!"

"Cliff!" he called. They stopped but the snowmonster was still in pursuit. "We'll have to jump," he said.

"Jump?"

"Yeah, there's a ton of snow to cushion us." She was unsure but saw there was no other choice. "Just go!"

She gulped and jumped off. They fell fast but landed soft and cold. "Wow, just like a pillow."

"See I told you."

"What can we do though?"

"I am not sure."

"There must be something."

"Well, did you try talking to her?"

"Of course I did."

"Really you didn't just order her to come back?" he asked skeptically.

"I did not order her!"

"Really? Did you yell?"

"Well, after she did."

"See? That probably didn't help."

"She wouldn't listen though."

"That does not mean start yelling."

"She was."

"She is scared."

"I know but we need her."

"Well, yelling just scared her more."

"Well, what was I supposed to do?"

"Try being gentle."

"I can't now."

"We will find a way."

"I guess we have to."


Meanwhile back in the castle Lucas smiled up at Elsa. "Did I do good?"

"Why did you do that?" Elsa asked shocked.

"She was yelling and I thought she was going to hurt you," he said.

"She'd never hurt me."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't want to make you mad," he said, clearly afraid that he had done something wrong.

"You thought you were doing the right thing."

"I did, but I was wrong I'm sorry."

"That was my sister."

"Oh! I didn't know," he said, looking at the ground.

"You couldn't have."

"So, you're not mad?"

"No, you were afraid and fear makes your powers go out of control."

"Yeah, but my parents would have been mad for something like that."

"I'm not your parents."

"Yeah that's true."

"I understand where it came from."

"You do?"

"Oh course I do, my powers have the same problem."

"Right, I forgot."

"It's not that hard to forget."

"Yeah, I just I don't want you to be mad or sad."

"Well, thank you. There's apparently a problem though."

"What's that?"

"Apparently I froze over my old home and I don't even know how."

"Well, were you scared?"

"Extremely." Elsa sighed.

"Well, maybe that's what made you do whatever it was you did."

"Most likely but she wants me to fix it and I don't know how."

"Well, how do you melt your sculptures?"

"You turn it to snow and it blows away."

"So then why not do that?"

"Because I doubt it's frozen in ice and it would just blow away like a small sculpture."

"Oh, well maybe the trick is some other emotion?"

"Like what?"

"I don't know something calm and happy."

"So, the opposite of fear basically?"

"Yeah, basically."

"You think it might work?"

"Yeah, I mean I can't see why it wouldn't. Might want to try it up here first though," he added.

"Yeah, that makes sense."

"Not in the castle though."

"I figured come on." she said taking his hand.

He took in and they headed out and higher up the mountain. "So let's start small." she said. He nodded stepping back. She focused on one small branch of the castle and tried to figure out what emotion to use. "I don't know," she told him.

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know what to even use."

"Well, what is the opposite of fear?"

"I don't know. Relaxation?"

"Maybe, try relaxing." He said.

"I've tried that most of my life but it's hard."

"Well try at least I know you can do it," he said hugging her.

She closed her eyes trying to relax. 'I know you can do it.' Lucas' small voice rang in her head. She was almost relaxed when something sent her fear spiraling.

She could feel others in the castle. "Get down." She whispered to Lucas.

"Okay?" He said.

"Someone's coming."

"Oh okay." He said running over and hiding in a small room.

Soon the doors burst open. Two men stood there crossbows in hand and aimed at her. She created a wall of ice between her and them just as one fired. The arrow stuck in as the other man ran towards her. An ice block stuck out of the ground and tripped him. "Please I don't want to hurt anyone."

"Too late for that."

"I didn't mean to!"

"Well, maybe your death is the key!"

"You can't know that!"

"One way to find out."

She pushed the wall of ice towards the men. They were pushed back towards the balcony. "Queen Elsa!" a voice said behind her. She turned to see Prince Hanz. "Don't be the monster they fear you are." She stopped the wall from pushing them. When she did one of them fired another arrow which grazed her arm.

All of the sudden, though Elsa had not moved, a large icicle nearly skewered on of the men. "Leave her alone!" Lucas said.

All three turned to the boy obviously very surprised and confused. "What the...is that...a child?" The Prince asked.

"Unimportant, leave Elsa alone!" he repeated.

"No, this is very important did you just do that?"

Lucas just smirked and raised many more icicles trapping all three of them. "Yes, I did. Are you okay?" He asked Elsa.

"Somewhat," she said, holding her arm which was bleeding from the arrow.

"How can I help?"

"I don't know." He walked over and took a piece of the prince's tie and handed it to her. "Thank you." She nodded and wrapped her arm with it.

"No problem."

"So, what do we do with them?"

"I don't know take them back?"

"I guess."

"It'll be okay." He said.

"Then we have to go back."

"I know, but I'll be there."

"What if there's more like them?"

"We can't run forever."

"I'm afraid though and that will only make things worse."

"You have to try."

"What if I kill everyone?"

"That won't happen you are too good," he said.

"It might if I have enough fear."

"Well, they are stuck so let's practice again."

"Well, okay."

"Just start small," he said hugging her.

"Okay, I will."

"You can do this."

"You sure?"

"Yeah, I believe in you."

"You have a lot of faith."

"I try to."

"What if I can't calm down when I need to?"

"Well, think of something that makes you calm."

"I don't know what that could be."

"Well what makes you happy?"

She closed her eyes and tried to bring something to mind. Anna came to mind first. It was so easy to trigger the memory of almost killing her though.

Then she felt Lucas' small arms hug her. She realized that he makes her happy. He made her feel like she was needed. 'Maybe that could work.' So she focused on that feeling. The branch thawed when she did. "Lucas, it worked!" She said.

"See? That's great, Elsa! What did you use?" He asked.

"Well, I thought of you."

"So I helped?"

"Yes you did."

"Yes!" He said smiling as the three men stuck in the room looked confused.

"Try on something bigger?" She asked.

"Yeah, you need the practice." She nodded and focused on an area of the ground to melt away the snow. It did melt and quickly. "Great job, Elsa!"

"It's thanks to you." she said.

"I can't really take credit."

"You gave me the idea, and the feeling."

"Well, yeah but."

"No buts," she said picking him up and smiling.

"Well, I'm glad I guess."

"We can go fix things now." She said.

"Think you're ready?"

"Yes, but we should find Anna first."

"Yeah, let's. Sorry about that again."

"You were just being protective." she said.

"I guess. Let's just go try to find her. I think he took her that way." Lucas said pointing.

"We'll go that way then."

"What about us?" The prince asked.

"Get them now?" Lucas asked.

"We probably shouldn't leave them here. They might freeze to death."

"Fine then, let's go."

"Any idea how to transport them?"

"We could try ice slides."

"That could work."

"It's fun."

"Let's do it then."

"Okay, let's get them off the ground."

"You want to do it or should I?"

"I can." He said. He lifted all three on an ice platform. "Now my favorite part." He said sitting on them like sleds and creating an ice slide.

"Ready, Elsa?"

"Sure." She said climbing up.

Once she was on, he used his powers to give the first push into the slide.

They slide down and out of the castle at high speeds. The trapped men were screaming as they went down. "Oh calm down, it's fun." Lucas said.

"Maybe not for them." Elsa laughed.

"Hey, I made sure that they went feet first." He shrugged.

"So kind."

"It was and theirs the cliff." He said. Elsa shot a second slide and knocked them onto a different path.


They slid in a slight loop and landed in a clearing were rocks appeared to be singing to her sister. "Uh...did we miss something?" Elsa asked as they slid to a halt beside them. "The trolls," Elsa realized.

"The who?" Lucas asked.

"The trolls, they saved Anna when I almost killed her."

"Oh, I see." Lucas said.

"Anna!" Elsa called out over the music.

"Elsa!" She said. "Why's Hans trapped in ice?"

"He and these guys tried to hurt her...well them more than him, but he didn't help her so I froze him.

"Hans, is that true?" Anna asked, making her way through the trolls over to him.

"Well, I uh...I just...yes it's true."

"Why?" She demanded.

"I uh..." He stammered as they all stared at him. "It's not like I tried to kill her myself."

"You didn't save her either."

"I couldn't!"

"You could have ordered them not to."

"I doubt they would have listened."

"Oh really? Did you try?" Anna asked.

"Not even a little." Lucas said from where the little trolls were playing with him.

"Any why not?"

He glared back at them. "Because it would have worked with my plans."

"What plans?" Anna demanded.

"To get to a throne."

"Keep talking," Anna hissed. While Lucas was getting rather confused having never realized that Elsa was queen.

"I'm 13th in line for the throne I knew I would have to marry into power and you were so desperate for love."

"I figured that once we were married I just had to arrange a little 'accident' for Elsa."

"What!" They all shouted.

Anna looked away her eye welling up with tears. "Hey don't cry." Lucas said coming over to her.

"How could I not?"

"Because you still have your sister and the snowman, and that other guy, and me."

"I was such a fool though."

"Hey, everyone makes mistakes."

"Not like this."

"Some people do."

"Well, I guess."

"See so calm down." He said.

"I can't."

"Why not?" He asked.

"Do you have any siblings?"

"Yeah, two actually."

"Would you be able to?"

"I would after time."

"Well, maybe I will be with time."

"Anna," Elsa said carefully. Anna looked at her sister not sure what to expect. "It's okay, you didn't know."

"You were right though. I shouldn't have just dove right in."

"Yes, but we you were right, too. I shouldn't have run away."

"You were afraid."

"And you were deceived."

"Does this mean you're gonna come back?"

"Yes I am. We figured out a way to fix Arendelle."

"You did?" She asked.

"Yeah, we tested it back up there."

"And it worked?"

"Yes it did."

"That's great!"

"We need to get back then."

"Yes we do."

"Ice slides are the quickest and easiest with these guys if you're up for it."

"Sounds fun!"

"It is!" Lucas said.

"I like him he's got a lot of energy." Anna said.

"Well, he is a kid."

"I know, but there are dull kids too."

"Well, I'm not," Lucas said, and rose all of them up. "Ready?" He asked. All the good ones nodded. "Alright, how fast?"

"Really fast!" Anna said.

"Okay, take a seat and everyone hang on to someone or something."

"Is this even safe?" Christoph asked.

"Yes it is."

"Doesn't seem very."

"Oh come on, live a little." Lucas said.

"I live."

"No you don't."

"Yes I do."

"Then get on." He hesitated but got onto one of the men. "Good." Lucas said nodding and starting the launch. They headed down the slide picking up speed quickly. "See I told you it was fun!" Lucas said.

"Yeah!" Anna shouted.

"Anyone want a ramp?" He asked.

"Yes!" Anna said.

"No!" The three men said.

"We don't care what you want!" Lucas yelled.

With that he made a ramp and they flew into the air. Soon of the decent he formed another slide to land on. "See that was not so bad."

"That was awesome!" Anna shouted.

"I know right!?"

"We're almost there!" Else shouted.

"Okay, we need to slow down."

Elsa sent a fairly weak blast going the other direction. They began to slow eventually coming to a stop. "See not so bad."

"I disagree!" Hans said.

"No one asked you." Anna said.

"So, how do you fix it?"

"With love."

"Love?"

"Yeah, the feeling of love."

"And it worked?"

"Yeah it did."

"Do it then."

"Okay, let me focus," she said.

"Okay, right, you need focus, okay."

"Anna, your still talking." She chuckled.

"Sorry."

Elsa smiled and focused standing in front of the castle. She tried to focus on Lucas just as last time. Sure enough it slowly started to thaw so she thought of Anna as well. It was less hard then she thought to push away the thought of the accident. Soon the thawing sped up. Soon all of Arendelle was thawed. "There all is back to normal." Elsa said.

"Hey Queen! You forgot us!" Hanz said.

"Of course I didn't." Elsa said her eyes landing on them who were still trapped.

"Well, can you get to it?" He asked.

"No, it's time to put you three where you belong."

"Where?"

"Prison for now. I'll decide further repercussions later." They all swallowed nervously as she turned and smiled down at Lucas. "So are you ready to see your new home?"

He nodded. "So, you're really queen?"

"Yes I am and that makes you a prince of sorts now."

"How?"

"Well, if you wanted I was thinking I could take you in officially," she said.

"I still have to find my brother though."

"Oh, of course, you will have our support."

"So we'll find him?"

"Of course we will, I promise."

"Then it's back to the mountain."

"Back to the mountain why?" Anna asked.

"Because that where he probably is. That's where I lost him at least."

"Oh! Well, can we get these men put away, and make sure the kingdom is okay first?"

"Of course."

"Good, plus I'm hungry."

"I'm starving," Lucas admitted.

"See, everyone needs food first." Elsa said.

"Okay."

"I promise once we have everything sorted we'll start looking." She said taking his hand.

"Okay, I trust you."

"Good, it'll be alright." She promised.

"I guess. Hopefully we'll find him soon."

"Do you think he's okay?"

"Probably."

"Then worry a little less."

"I'll try."

"At least a little."

"I'll try."

"Good."

"What were you guys doing on the mountain?"

"We had to get over it; we were looking for a new place to live. We were kicked out of our old house by our parents."

"What why would they do that?"

"They had a third child who was normal and decided they didn't want us."

"They can't do that." Anna said.

"Well, they did anyways."

"But that's so cruel."

"Yes it is."

"Who would do that?"

"I don't see locking someone in their room for it and teaching them to fear themself as any better. Human nature has a low tolerance for what they don't understand."

"Wow, you are smart."

"How old are you anyways?" Anna asked.

"I'm five."

"Awfully smart for your age."

"I learned a lot I thought they would love me more than..." He trailed off."Clearly I was wrong." He sighed.

"Well, we love you." Elsa said.

"Thank you, Elsa," he said, hugging her.

"You're welcome," she said holding him. "You deserve it," she added.

"I don't know."

"We do."

"You sure I'm not a burden?"

"Of course not."

"I feel like I might be."

"Well, you never could be."

He smiled a little at that. "I love you, Elsa."

"I love you too Lucas."

"Thank you."

"What for?"

"Caring."

"Of course." She said.

"It's nice."

"I am glad to have you."

"Why do you care so much?"

"You grew on me. You're so kind."

"Thanks."

"That's part of the reason I care."

"Well, still, thank you."

"My pleasure and thank you."
