Prologue:

She was 9 when Elsa first saw the shadow.

It had been a warm summers night when she had been telling her younger siblings Anna and Olaf the story of the Snow queen.

"- and then, the Snow Queen knocked the sword out of the Pirate captain's hand, leaving him unarmed" she said, her siblings gasped, Anna hugging her cushion and Olaf hugging his snow man toy "The Snow Queen put her sword to the Captains throat 'Do you think he deserves mercy?!' Shouted the Queen"

"No!" said her siblings, shaking their heads.

"In that case" said Elsa with a smirk " Captain Jack shall walk the plank!"

Her siblings cheered, they didn't even ask for the end of the story, they were too occupied in sword fighting.

Elsa was laughing along with her siblings too until she saw something move outside the window, she ran to see what it was, but there was nothing there.

The second time she saw the shadow had been after her first day at secondary school.

She had been doing her homework, when she had once again seen movement by the window, she had looked up, but hadn't given it any more notice.

She was now 15, and her father had insisted that she join him and her mother at one of the banks annual balls. She had unfortunately not managed to get out of going.

And that's when she saw the shadow again.
