It was just a simple night. Rain was softly tapping on the windows while Elsa was quietly read a novel. She bit her lip. Something wasn't right. The queen gently closed the book and walked around the room, searching for something but not knowing what it was. Suddenly, a thunder roared in the distance, and Elsa whirled around to see her former lover standing in the doorway.

"Elsa, how are you doing?" Hans smirked. "You've never changed. Still as beautiful as ever." He picked up a single white rose from a vase near him. He twirled around, smiling at it like a maniac. "You know, I never figured out why you chose him over me."

The queen hid her hands behind her back, trying to stop the frost creeping up her arms. "Things change, you know."

Hans turned his head, inspecting a painting of Xavier and Elsa smiling and sitting side by side in their thrones. "I would've given you the world if you asked. What was so special about him?"

Elsa bit her lip again. His voice triggered something in her, her hidden feelings revealing themselves. "You and Xavier were different people." She said simply, trying to hide the ache concealed in those words. "After what you did…" She shook her head. "There was nothing you could do to make me forget."

"You loved me once." Hans stepped closer to her and cupped her cheek. "What changed, Elsa?"

The queen drew in a breath. The touch was so familiar, it was hard to fight the urge to kiss him. "You weren't right for me. We both knew that, didn't we?" She looked down, hoping it would end the conversation.

Hans stepped back, his brow furrowing. "Do you think I'm that stupid?" He looked at her, disgusted. "No, no, it wasn't like that. There was something between us! Before he came along!"

Elsa didn't know how to respond. "No… you're fooling yourself, Hans. There wasn't anything between us. We were just two broken souls, we needed each other then… to heal. But now…" She shook her head sadly, not being able to find the words to finish.

Hans, however wasn't going to take that as an answer. "Elsa… please…"

"It's over Hans, it was over a long time ago…"

"Don't say that!" He growled, throwing the rose to a fireplace at the end of the room. "You're the one who's fooling yourself!"

"What's going on here?"

The two whirled around, to see Xavier walking towards Elsa. She felt like she was two inches tall right now, and even though she was the queen, no one could do anything about it. Both Hans and Elsa knew what was going to happen. The villain tackled the king unexpectedly, ignoring a shriek escape from Elsa's lips. He punched him over and over, under the jaw, in the stomach, in the nose. Xavier coughed up blood, and stared at Elsa one last time. Then Hans' fists ignited flames, and punched the king straight in the heart.

Xavier gasped, and exhaled… one last time, and died.

Elsa felt like Hans had punched her in the stomach too, and she felt like all air have escaped her lungs. The queen sobbed and scurried beside her husband, mourning him. It felt like a part of her has left the world, and he was never coming back. She would never hear him laugh again, or feel his arms around her… Xavier was gone, just like that…

Nobody noticed when a small figure appeared in the doorway.

"Mom?" Aqua ran to her mother, worried. "What happened to Daddy?"

The queen just sobbed. How can her daughter survive, only knowing her father for a few years? Aqua took notice of the man with blood splattered on him. "What did you do to daddy?" Somehow, she knew. It felt weird, like you just know something, but you're not quite sure how. Small tears slipped down her cheeks.

"What are you doing here?" Aqua's eyes glowed light blue, and little droplets of water started appearing around her hands. More appeared, and the droplets grew, into large balls of water as big as herself.

Hans only stepped forward and smirked. "Oh, ok. I guess I'll have a little play fight with your daughter." His hands lit up with fire and he started to charge at Aqua, about to punch her, just like he did with her father. Just as he came close to the princess, Aqua formed a water bubble around him. Hans only smirked. He had enough sense to hold his breath up to this point. Too bad a man couldn't hold his breath forever. He panicked, and shot flames to the bottom of the bubble, hoping to break it. Instead, the flame just managed to make the bottom a little unstable before extinguishing. Hans tried the method again, shooting more flames down this time. It didn't work. The heat added to the water, making the villain boil himself in the bubble.


Hey guys! Ok, super super exited to start this new adventure with Elsa's children. There's gonna be a few deaths along the way, including one of the queen's so… just to warn you.
