It was a full moon as the royal family made their way to the docks they were going on a trip to visit the royal family of Arendelle. It was a beautiful night the moon shining down lighting the path and then it happened the ambush no one saw coming. Screams erupted painful screams and then the scream and the painful sound of a last breath drawn and then a fiery explosion of dust.
"Elsa…Elsa….Elsa…." Eyes fluttered open adjusting to their surroundings the room was dark but that was fine she didn't' need the light. The eyes looked around searching from where the voice had come from "Olaf….Where are you?" The young woman said. "You're squishing me" The voice said. Elsa looked down and under her were two red eyes glowing at her "I'm sorry" Elsa said as she rolled over. She was drenched in sweat her clothes clung to her body and her heart which normally only beat every few minutes was racing. She felt something scurry up her arm and sit on her shoulder she looked over seeing Olaf her white rat. "I've been trying to wake you for ten minutes when you first started to scream" He said. Elsa closed her eyes trying to calm her heart down after a few minutes it went back to its regular beat.
"When was the last time you had blood?" Olaf asked Elsa opened her eyes blood when was the last time she had the sweet liquid? "Three four days maybe" She said closing her eyes again trying her best to get out of the bed. Finally after a few attempts she was out and she headed to the bathroom she let the tub fill with the hot water as she stood there shaking "Run along Olaf I want to be with my thoughts" She said. The white rat sighed and jumped off her shoulder scurrying out of sight. Elsa stripped of her clothes and sat in the bath closing her eyes trying to calm her nerves. Within a few moments she was relaxed she let her head rest against the back of the tub. For a few minutes she could relax but then her stomach started to knot up from not having the substance she desired the most.
The water was hot extremely hot but it didn't' phase her skin the skin that was like ice to touch; it never phased her it did warm her body up though and it did make her relax. There came a knock on the bathroom door and her eyes opened "Princess Elsa are you in there?" The voice of a young maid asked. Elsa didn't want to answer but she knew she must "Yes" She replied "The queen is requesting your presence in her study when you are done" Elsa closed her eye "Tell her I'll be there" She said opening her eyes as she laid in the bath she didn't' want to face her mother right now she just wanted to relax and let the nightmare she had just had erase form her memory. She stayed in the bath longer then she needed but she didn't' care.
Elsa climbed out the tub drying off walking back into the dark room opening her closet she looked for something to wear she found her underwear and her bra and then she pulled out a black suit. She made quick effort to put it on and looked at herself in the mirror her platinum blonde hair was a mess and her electric blue eyes looked tired. Elsa didn't feel like fixing herself up so she just ran a comb through her hair there was no audience it was just her and her mother. Elsa knew what she had to say she had to tell her she had to tell her she didn't' want to go and she wouldn't'. Elsa walked out of the dark room looking around the dark castle there were torches lit but honestly she wished they weren't so it would be completely dark.
Elsa stood in front of the door to the study trying to compose herself conceal don't' feel don't' let it show Elsa was thinking this over and over and then she opened her eyes and opened the door. She seen her mother there sitting at the desk she was writing something. Her mother was wearing a black elegant dress her long black hair was perfect it was never out of place. "Elsa I've been waiting please have a seat we need to talk. You've shut me out for two weeks after the announcement" She said. Elsa sat down in the chair in front of the desk she closed her eyes the announcement it had only made matters worse. Elsa opened her tired eyes to see her mother looking into her their eyes the same color but unlike Elsa's her mothers were full of life.
"I'm not going" Elsa said her breathing shaky "What?" Her mother asked "You heard me I'm not going I refuse to go" She said. Her mother sighed "Elsa you say this every year we are going and that is final" She said. "Why do we have to go why can't we send someone like we have in the past" She said trying to calm her stomach that had knots in it making it hard for her to think. "Because I said so plus this year Princess Anna turns eighteen and we are going to be there for her birthday she is dying to meet you" Her mother said. Dying to meet me that's sounds funny to someone who is dead Elsa thought. "Well I'm not living to meet her" She said as she closed her eyes the knots getting tighter in her stomach.
"I can't and I won't not after the last time not after…" Elsa stops talking the memories and the nightmare resurfacing she closes her eyes tighter. Then her face it changes from being somewhat calm to angry she opens her eyes those electric blue eyes are glowing crimson red "Don't you remember what happened sixteen years ago on the trip we planned your wife my mother she was killed by Arendelle guards that were on our shore we watched her turn to dust I won't' go" Elsa lashes out her eyes change they dull back into the electric blue the sudden burst of anger makes the knots in her stomach tighter and she's exhausted even more than before. Her eyes meet her mother's "Elsa we are better protected now we are going and that is final" She said as she goes back to writing.
Elsa watches her how is she calm how can she be so perfect all the time how… her thoughts drift back to the knots in her stomach. "There only human why is this so important why can't' we just…" Elsa stops she can't think form the pain "When did you drink blood last" Her mother said looking up at her "I can't remember everything is a blur" Elsa says "Elsa you know you need blood everyday your torturing yourself, starving yourself Annette wouldn't' have wanted that." Her mother says. Elsa closes her eyes the mention of her mother's name she can hear her screaming she can see her blue eyes dull and then the dust the fiery dust. "Elsa you need to drink your on edge please do it for us" Her mother speaks.
Elsa stands up shaking "Alright" She whispers "How long will we be staying in Arendelle?" She asks her mother looks up "Three months plus it will help you with your human interaction" She said. "Now go feed before you collapse" Her mother says Elsa turns and leaves the study she's shaking now she looks around for a maid she needs blood and she knows it. Just as she thinks of finding one, one pops around the corner she's young her blood will do. Elsa walks over to the maid bringing her close she pulls her shirt down form her neck. Elsa is shaking bad concertinaing is getting harder then she licks her neck and bites it's her fangs working into the flesh and then she can feel it the blood spilling into her mouth. She sucks bringing more forth letting it wash down her throat she wishes nothing more than to drink the maid dry it would be one less human she would have to worry about.
Elsa though knows she's had her fill and she lickes the wounds healing it instantly she releases the maid and walks to her room and lay's back down her eyes close instantly and she falls asleep hoping the blood will make memories her nightmares just go away just for a little while.
