"Hans you stay here and take care of Arendelle." Anna asked him while she herself mounted a horse to go find her sister.
Against the biting cold Anna stood no chance she had severe head ache and cold even her horse dumped her in the middle of the journey. Anna staggers up to the porch of a cabin in the woods, her dress very due to the weather. She knocks some snow off the sign.
"Wandering Oaken's Trading Post." Ooh! "And Sauna!"
Anna entered the store, shivering. The wind slams the door shut behind her.
"Hoo-hoo!"
"Hmmm?"
"Big summer blowout! Half off swimming suits, clogs, and a sun balm of my own invention, ja?" Called the Oaken.
"...Oh, great. For now, um, how about boots? Winter boots? A-And dresses?"
"That vould be in our vinter department."
"Oh..." Anna picks out the one pair of boots and dress that are still in stock.
"Um, I was just wondering, has another young woman-the Queen perhaps, I don't know-passed through here?" she asked.
"Only one crazy enough to be out in this storm is you, dear."
The door opens and a man staggers in, completely covered in snow from head to toe. Anna stares at him.
"You and this fellow? Hoo-hoo! Big summer blowout!"
He steps towards Anna, who starts humming nervously and leans back.
"Carrots." He asked in a muffed voice.
"Huh?" He leans in, to her face.
"Behind you!" He states.
Anna saw he was gesturing to some carrots on a shelf below the counter.
"Oh! Right! Excuse me." She steps to the side.
"Oooh, a real howler in July, yes? Vherever could it be coming from?"
"The North Mountain." Huffed the man. Anna saw him pick up a rope and an axe from the winter department shelves.
'The North Mountain?'
"That'll be forty."
"Forty?! No, ten!"
"Oh, dear, that's no good! See, zis is from our vinter stock, vhere the supply and demand have a big problem?"
"You want to talk about a "supply and demand" problem?! I sell ice for a living!" He screamed.
Admist of all the chit chatters Anna looked at the sled parked outside, loaded with ice blocks.
"Ooh, that's a rough business to be in right now! I mean, that is really-" he glared at her. Anna clears her throat
"Ahem, that's unfortunate." She replied.
"Still forty." Said the Oaken
"Ten's all I've got! Help!" He asked the Oaken.
"Was anything different... magical over The North Mountain" enquired Anna.
"Yes now will you shut up while I have to deal with this crook!" He said. Anna stepped aside.
"Vhat did you call me?" Oaken walks out the front, he carried Kristoff over his shoulder. Oaken effortlessly throws him through the air. Kristoff lands face first in the snow.
"Bye-bye!" bid the Oaken. Oaken came back inside and slams the door shut behind him.
"I'm sorry about this violence! I vill add a quart of lutefisk so we have good feelings."
He said as he placed a jar of pickled lutefisk next to the rest of Anna's stuff. "Just the outfit and the boots, ja?"
" Uh..." she started and ended up buying the Ice-man's supplies. She headed outside to the barn where she heard the ice-man singing.
"..Don't let the frostbite bite..." sang Kristoff to Sven.
Anna pushed the door open and she stepped in. She saw him jump
"Ah! just you and not, him Oh, it's just you. What do you want?" He asked Anna.
"I want you to take me up the North Mountain." She saw him sighs and falls back on a hay bale, putting his hat over his eyes to use as a sleep mask.
"I don't take people places." He replied.
"Let me rephrase that." Anna throws a sack Take me up the North Mountain...please"
Kristoff looked in the sack to find the rope and axe he tried to purchase. "Look, I know how to stop this winter."
"We leave at dawn. And you forgot the carrots for Sven."
"That you will get as soon as you promise to take me to the north mountain."
"Do I have another choice. Yes I will take you to the mountain. But I am warning you things are a little rough and strange there."
Anna gave him the carrots.
"Now!" Said Anna. After persuading Kristoff they all were set to trek to the mountain.
They drove the sledge to the mountain. Eventually they started talking. Anna told Kristoff the whole day's events.
"So you are saying that your sister caused an eternal winter."
"Yes. She was angry at me that I had found my true love and she hadn't?"
"True love? How long have you known the guy."
"I met him today! Yes, pay attention! But the thing is, she wore the gloves all the time, so I just thought, "Maybe she has a thing about dirt!"
"You cant marry a man you just met."
"You can if its true love."
"Okay so you know that guy whom you met today?"
"Yes i do."
"What is his last name?"
"Of Southern Els."
"What's his favorite food?
"Sandwiches."
"Best friend's name?"
" Probably John."
" Eye color?"
"Dreamy."
" Foot size?"
" Foot size doesn't matter ."
"That isn't true. See what am I saying."
"That doesn't even make a difference." Chided Anna.
"Okay the way he picks his nose?"
"No he doesn't pick his nose. He is a Prince."
"Every man does. Anyways Didn't your parents warn you about strangers?" Asked Kristoff.
"Yesss." Before Anna could continue. Sven stopped abruptly. Kristoff noticed his surrounding only to see 6 pairs of golden eyes staring at him.
"RUN SVEN RUN!" screamed Kristoff.
"Why whats wrong?"asked Anna. The wolves attacked them. Anna lit fire to the goods that were behid the sledge she threw them at the wolves whenever anyone of them got close. Kristoff stirred Sven through the woods. Finally they were able to chase away the wolves.
"That was good." Remarked Anna.
"No!" Replied Kristoff.
"We are headed towards the cliff."
Kristoff placed Anna on Sven and hopped behind, he then cut the sleigh.
"Jump Sven!" He ordered Sven. Sven leaped they landed on the other side. They survived but the but Kristoff's sleigh was destroyed.
"Its better if you just head back now. You still want to go to meet your sister the one person who caused this storm and the eternal winter as you say. Do you even realise how powerful that girl would be?" Said an angry Kristoff.
"I am sorry about your sleigh. Elsa isn't just a girl, she is the queen of Arendelle and before anything else she is my sister. She will never hurt me. I understand if you want to tag along now. And i promise to buy you a new sledge." Apologised Anna. And they both started to walk to different directions. But Kristoff changed his mind.
"I told I would take you to the North mountain. I will. don't blame me later." Said Kristoff.
They both now on foot meet Olaf, a cheerful snowman.
"Hi" stated Olaf.
"You can talk!" Screamed Anna as she kicked the snowman's head as if it was a football. Kristoff caught it.
"Calm down!" He said to both Anna
"Okay so lets start from the beginning." said Olaf
"Hi I'm Olaf, and I like warm hugs."
"Hi I'm Anna and this is Kristoff, that is Sven." replied Anna.
"Did Elsa make you?" asked Kristoff.
"Yup."
"So do you know where Elsa is?" Questioned Anna.
"Yes I do."
"Can you take us there." enquired Anna.
"Ya sure. She went up the North mountain." replied Olaf.
After walking for a while. They reached a dead end.
"Looks like we will have to climb the mountain wall." Commented Anna. And began climbing.
"Hey guys I can see a glass, no ice staircase leading to your palace." Replied Olaf.
"Cool." Commented Anna and she jumped at Kristoff who caught her.
"Thanks!" She replied.
They crossed the elegant ice bridge and reach the palace.
"I would want to meet her alone. Please could you give us a five minutes. We'll be out soon." Declared Anna as she stepped in. She looked around the ice castle. It was beyond words. It was elegant, it had very intricate designs all over itself. Anna's eyes landed on the one person she wanted to see.
"Elsa!"
"Anna!" Anna ran to greet her sister but Elsa backed off.
"Elsa its okay. I'm not afraid. I know you won't harm me. You have to come back."
"I can't Anna, just go leave me alone."
"Elsa you look different. The hair, the dress, the palace, the chandelier all are amazing. So elegant just like you would have wanted. Did you make this all."
Elsa nodded.
"Of course you did. They are all amazing. I love it. Now let's go back home."
"This is my home Anna."
"Home to Arendelle... to me."
"I can't didn't you see what I did there. Don't you know what I can do. I'm a monster." declare Elsa.
"No, Elsa you are my sister."
"Anna just go back and you will be fine with out me. Enjoy your life."
"Without you, I have nothing. I already lost my parents I can't loose you too. Just come back home Elsa."
Olaf barged inside.
"Olaf?" asked Elsa in disbelief.
"You built me! Remember that?"
"And you're alive?"
"Yeah, um...I think so?" Said Olaf, inspecting himself.
"He's just like the one we built as kids." Smiled Anna.
"Yeah."
"Oh, Elsa, we were so close. We can be like that again." 'suddenly the memory of her accidentally hurting Anna when she was eight years.' Dawns upon Elsa.
"No, we can't. Goodbye, Anna."
"Elsa, wait!"
"No, I'm just trying to protect you!"
"You don't have to protect me! I'm not afraid!"
"How is Arendelle?" Asked Elsa changing the topic.
"Well you actually accidentally set an eternal winter there what do you expect?"
"What!?" Saying this the temperature decreased exponentially.
Anna screeched as the pain in her head increased.
"No problem, you need to unfreeze it." Joked Anna.
"I can't. Anna I can't control it." Said Elsa with her head in her hand.
"I know you can." Smiled Anna.
"I CAN'T!" Screamed Elsa letting out sparks of ice. Anna was standing Very close to Elsa. Elsa hit Anna. Anna screamed with increasing biting cold in her body.
"ANNA!" "ELSA!" Both of them screamed. Kristoff barged in. Anna fainted, falling on the ground. Kristoff caught her. Elsa tried to approach her. But Kristoff stopped her.
"I wouldn't come close if I were you." He stated.
"Who are you? Doesn't matter take her to safety." replied the protective sister.
"No! I know we can figure this out together." Begged Anna.
"HOW?! What power do you have to stop this winter?ǃ To stop ME?!" Asked Anna.
"She is as cold as ice!" saying this Kristoff took Anna in bridal style to Sven and then takes her to Grand Pabbie, Kristoff's adopted family.
"Grand Pabbie, she as cold as ice!" Shouted Kristoff desperately. Grand Pabbie hurried and checked Anna
"Anna will freeze solid unless "an act of true love" reverses the spell."
"True love's kiss!" Exclaimed Olaf.
"Hans!" Exclaimed Kristoff.
Kristoff races Anna back home so Hans can give her true love's kiss.
BACK AT ARENDELLE
"I want volunteers to bring Elsa and check on Anna." He shouted to the crowd.
After gathering few men he set to find Elsa and Anna. After travelling for three days, Hans and his men reach Elsa's palace.
As soon as they saw Elsa they started to shoot fire at her. They were too many of them Elsa couldn't handle them at once with out her powers. An arrow just skid past her arm leaving a mark and blood trickled. This enraged Elsa. She blasted ice. She killed the ones who had blasted fire on her. She saw the others and soon they were ice statues. Leaving her alone with Hans. When she was about to strike him he spoke.
"Elsa. Stop." Called Hans when she didn't bulge neither strike him. He continued.
"Unfreeze them. " He ordered Elsa.
"I can't." She replied. She was completely helpless in front of Hans. Anna loved him. If she would kill him she would loose her sister once and for all. Frustrated she shouted. The ice castle rumbled imitating her anger.
"GO... LEAVE... TAKE CARE OF ANNA... IF I EVER HEAR SHE, SHED A TEAR I WILL TEAR YOU APART!" She shouted. Hans maintained his calm.
"I will Take care of Anna." He said.
Elsa turned around.
"Ahhhhh" someone screamed in the ice palace.
And then sound of laughter followed.
