"Psst! Elsa!" The girl with hair as bright as flame, clambered onto her sister's bed. "Wake up, wake up, wake up!"
"Go to sleep, Anna," the pile of blankets grumbled as the creature under them squirmed into a comfortable position.
"I simply can not." The littler one flopped onto her sister. "The sky's awake, so I'm awake. We have to play." Pure blue eyes glared at the red head. The younger one smiled, noticing the sparkle of joy in the blonde's eyes.
"Go play by yourself." The little one was shoved off the bed, but she scrambled up onto it again. She lifted the eyelids of her sister, just to make sure she was away. She then leaned in closer.
"Do you wanna build a snowman?" Elsa smiled, and together, the two set off downstairs. They wore no cloaks or gloves, only their nightgowns. The summer sunrise painting the hallways in a bright orange.
Anna pulled Elsa along, trying to have fun before their parents came and ruined it. Elsa grinned at the large room in the least visited part of the castle.
"Do the magic! Do the magic!" Her sister squealed. Elsa created a ball of snow crystals in her hands and threw it towards the ceiling, causing it to snow. "This is amazing!" The little three year old giggled as a snowflake touched her nose.
"Watch this." Elsa gently nudged her powers toward her feet, causing a blanket of ice to be thrown over the floor. Her sister giggled as she began to slide from her sister. Elsa glided over to Anna and skated around the room, guiding Anna with one hand. She caused piles of snow to form, knowing that they would cushion her little sister if she were to lose control.
After awhile, they began rolling two snowballs. Elsa made the bigger one and Anna, with what little strength she had made a tiny neck to go on top. Elsa put the tiny ball on top of the large one.
"Wait here while I finish Olaf."
"Okay." The little red head nodded. Elsa used her magic to place his his oddly shaped head on top. As Elsa worked on finishing Olaf's face, Anna made faces at her. She squished her cheeks together and squinted her eyes. Elsa giggled and made the final touch to the face.
"Hi, I'm Olaf, and I like warm hugs." Elsa moved the sticks to make him look more realistic.
"I love you, Olaf!" Anna ran over and hugged the snowman, smiling at her elder sister. Elsa used her magic to skate herself, Anna, and Olaf across the ice. Anna shouted every once in awhile to tell Elsa of a snow pile ahead. The room began to turn to its original color as the sun rose higher over the fjord. Anna crashed into one of the snow banks, surfacing and throwing snow in the air. She giggled as she jumped off the peak of the hill.
"Hold on." Magic flew from Elsa's fingers, causing a pillar of snow to catch Anna. Anna jumped again, the magic sending her to new heights in the room. As the pillars grew taller, Anna began to go faster. "Slow down." Elsa slipped on her own ice.
Anna jumped.
"Anna!" Elsa fear made her magic go wild. As she reached out to try to help her sister, the magic reacted as her arm lined up with Anna. Time seemed to slow down for the blonde princess as she watched her magic glide into Anna's chest. Anna collided with a snowdrift. "Anna!"
Elsa slipped and slid as she tried to run to her sister's aid. Elsa frantically looked her sister over. Anna's eyes, with the likeness of a peacock's tail feathers, seemed to bloom into a bright crystal blue.
"Elsa, why… am I so… cold?" A small strand of Anna's bright hair became a black canvas, as white as the snow that now surrounded them.
"Mama! Papa!' Elsa couldn't hold back her tears. She had done this to her sister. Fear and grief raged in her heart, causing her fickle magic to be sent out. Ice crawled up the walls and in between the cracks of the windows and door. Sharp spears of ice formed around corners and shot out of the walls.
"Don't worry Anna. I'll protect you," Elsa promised. She heard the doors burst open.
"Elsa, what have you done?" Elsa looked into the faces of her parents. "This is getting out of control." His stern gaze that once made the little girl feel safe from harm, was now directed at her. She shuddered, because all she saw was hate. Her mother was worse. The queen looked at the girl and shook her head. Elsa knew she was disappointed.
"It- It was an accident." She hugged Anna closer, wishing to give all her warmth to Anna. Her mother came and picked up the shivering red head.
"She's ice cold." The queen looked to her husband.
"I know what to do." The king rushed to his study and found the map to the trolls. "Saddle our horses." Once saddled, Elsa made a move to get onto her father's horse, but he stopped her. "Elsa, I would like you to stay here."
"But I want to come." Elsa knew it was her fault. She just had to know if her sister would be alright.
"You've done enough damage for today Elsa, please stay here." Her father gracefully landed in his saddle, and her family were off. She trudged back into her room.
Once she hit her warm blankets, the sobs would not stop. The tears were shed in fear, but this fear was for her sister. She soon cried herself to sleep.
Many people outside of the castle looked up to marvel at the first snowfall since winter ended. The warmth of the summer didn't let the snowflakes linger on the ground long, but the snowflakes still continued dancing to the ground. They welcomed the King, Queen, and Princess Anna home from their ride from the mountains. Anyone in the streets noticed the tears trickling down their rulers faces, and they knew. Something had gone terribly wrong.
