Scorched

(A sequel to the movie Frozen)

Prologue

(Set before Anna's birth. Elsa is 2 and her powers are still a mystery. Gustav is 4 and only his family knows his power. Queen is pregnant with Anna.)

"Elsa," Gustav whispered to his baby sister, "it's alright, calm down." His sister's cries slowly softened as he stroked her white hair back around her ear. He yawned but picked her up and started singing her back to sleep in his arms. He continued until she silently fell asleep and he slipped back in bed and he too fell asleep.

The soft rubbing of Elsa's hand against his awoke him. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and looked over the bedside at his younger sister.

"Bubby," she said softly "will you come to the window with me?"

"Sure," he replied and taking his hand in hers helped her over to the window were he sat down, placing her on his lap. He lit the candle using the tip of his finger and stared out the window. Elsa rested her small head on his chest and they sat on the window watching the sun's light trickle over the horizon, filling the sky with light.

As the landscape below them lit up the two saw that snow was falling on the ground softly. Elsa scrambled up from her position and put her hands on the frost-covered window. Gustav looked at his sister, who remained with her hands still pressed to the glass awed by the scenery below her.

Suddenly a small flash of white caught his eye. He looked at Elsa's hands and saw that ice was coating the window little by little.

"Elsa…" He began but was cut off as the window swung open wildly carrying Elsa with it. He immediately leaped towards the open window trying to reach his sister. She fell flailing her arms as she left the ledge. In her panic she sent a bolt of ice magic up at the window. As he leaped towards her hand he felt magic rush out of his. Elsa's magic nailed Gustav's fire causing an explosion, making them both fall towards the snow covered ground, unconscious.

The King and Queen rushed into the room and looked out the window at their children who lay in the snow unmoving. They rushed out of the palace and around the sidewall reaching their children.

"He's as cold as ice." The King says after touching his son's head.

"She's extremely warm." The Queen says with a worried look. "What are we going to do?"

"I know where we must go…" The King replies and reaches inside of his jacket and pulls out a map. "…To the Trolls."

The two mount horses and speed off towards the trolls' home. They rush on with frost and embers covering the ground behind them.

"Hello." The King called. The rocks shook and rolled up to the royal family popping into their regular form. Pabbie (in case you forgot he is the oldest troll and the leader) popped right in front the King.

"Let me see them." Pabbie said and the King and Queen handed their children to him. "Since she has the power of ice, and her head has suffered much more damage from the fire. If had gotten here any later she might have died"

"She has a power?" The King asked stunned.

"Yes, but she is a grave danger to your son and he is a danger to her as well. I recommend that we remove all memory of Gustav." "For your son, however I believe we should remove all memories of your family and all remembrance of his power. I am afraid you must send him away to some other family so he can grow up there."

"If we must, we will let you do this." The King said, "we will send him to the Southern Isles to live with the family there. There are plenty of brothers he can have there."

Pabbie finished his work and the family rode back to Arendale. The next morning they delivered a semi-unconscious Gustav to the Southern Isles to live with the royal family there.
