Anna gently brushed Elsa's pale blonde hair out of her sleeping face, holding her gloved hand sadly. Hans had been escorted out of the castle for questioning, though what the traitor had been doing there, besides the obvious intent of hurting Elsa, was beyond everyone.
"Oh Elsa... Please wake up!"
Outside the door, Kristoff paced. "I've seen this, I know I have. Think, man, think! And... Nothing?! Argh!" he yelled in frustration, slamming his fist against the wall. "Stupid... Stupid... Why can't I remember?!"
He sighed, banging the wall one last time, before walking away, muttering, "Maybe Sven knows..."
Back inside, Anna paced beside her sister's bed, worrying. "Two attempts on her life! Two almost successful ones at that! And on her birthday... It was just luck that saved her the first time, so why isn't she-"
"Dead?"
Anna jumped, partially from shock, partially from rage, at the voice of the one man she did not need to see at the moment. "Hans."
He smiled, walking into the room. "Anna."
"What are you doing here? And why have you hurt my sister?" Anna balled her fists as she stepped between Elsa's body and the monster before her. "I swear, when she wakes up, she'll-"
Hans laughed. "So many questions! Well, I suppose I can answer them like I already did for the queen's wretched guards. Of course, since I have an appointment with one of... the queen's fine creations after, I have all the time in the world, so you may ask away, young lady."
Biting back a retort, Anna spat, "Why did you do this?"
"Well, that's an easy one. I want to have my revenge! You see, Anna," he growled, smile slipping for a second, "if it weren't for your sister, freezing your heart and such, I could have married you peacefully, staged this accident earlier, and you would never have known!"
"Wait, what?"
He smiled, brushing past the girl, and knelt down, tilting Elsa's unconscious face towards himself. "Any way you put it, for me to become king of Arendelle, Elsa here must die. Simply said, of course. I have to be next in line, and, well, married to you first, but that's a minor complication."
"You're... You're a monster..." Anna breathed, shakily backing away from Hans. "Cold-blooded killer... And," she growled, slapping his hand away from her sister, "you don't even deserve to be in the same room as us! Leave!"
"Alright, alright! But," he warned, one hand on the doorknob, "it's only going to get worse."
"What do you-"
The door closed, and he was gone.
Kristoff smiled, patting Sven's head. "So you're saying that I don't know because I'm not bothering to remember?"
"That's right," he snorted to himself, mimicking a reindeer voice. "And you're thick-headed too!"
"What! No! That's not it!"
"It certainly is."
"I can remember! In fact, I know the cure right now! There!"
"What is it then?"
Kristoff stalled, and said sheepishly, "Uh, it's still loading."
Sven rolled his eyes, and eyed the mountain man's pocket hungrily, who smiled, and said, "Alright, here, a peace offering." He pulled out a carrot, which was snatched up in a flash, orange chunks littering the barn floor.
"Whoa, buddy! Save some for me!" Kristoff laughed, and patted Sven fondly. "Well, alright. But when I remember, the carrots are mine!"
Elsa was flying.
She was soaring through the air, smiling, over the empty city of Arendelle. The streets were covered in frost, and the full moon shone low and bright, surrounded by stars.
I am free, she thought. Nothing can hurt me here. I don't have to hold everything in anymore.
A nagging thought pulled at the back of her mind, yelling for her to stop and think for a moment, but she was already in motion, her powers shooting into the air and crystallizing into elegant and elaborate sculptures. She laughed quietly, creating intricate designs, patterns, and finally, sculptures.
One sculpture in particular.
Slowly gliding to a stop, she set her boots on the ground, and began to create a life sized icy statue, circling around it until it stood as tall as she did.
Adding the details took effort, but eventually a frozen version of her sister stared back at her, smiling happily.
Hm, she thought. This reminds me of when-
The nagging thought burst through, and the temperature began to drop rapidly, her eyes widening.
No... No no no!
-I... froze her heart.
And then... And then she sacrificed herself, and she died for me... And when the curse was broken... And that traitor Hans...
Elsa fell to her knees, eyes shut tight in mental agony. And now I've done it again. She'll be in danger, and it's all Hans's fault, and here I am, making silly models of my-
Sister.
Elsa shot upright, startling Anna and making her fall to the ground.
"Ack! Elsa, why did you... Oh hey! You're awake! Thank goodness, I was so worried... Did it hurt? How are you feeling?"
The queen clutched her hands, murmuring, "Fine," before hesitantly opening and closing them. "Did my powers do anything... unusual... when I was unconscious?"
"Uh... I don't think so." Anna smiled. "I mean, your hands frosted over a bit, like they do when you're magicking something, but I think that's gone now. And hey! Why'd you wake up? Are you still sick?"
"Sick?" Elsa stared, confused. "What do you mean?"
"Hello? You were poisoned, remember? On your birthday! Geez, forgetful much."
The elder smiled slightly, retorting, "Well, I don't exactly know the reason for collapsing when I do."
Anna laughed. "True. But now everything's great! I think your powers protected you or something, so you're fine! We can hold your birthday party tomorrow, and you can have presents, and everyone will be happy to see you, and-"
Elsa's eyes widened suddenly, and managed fearfully, "Anna-"
"-nobody can hurt you and I can finally get Kristoff to dance-"
"Please, just-"
"-and maybe you'll even dance for once-"
"Pay attention to-"
"-and Hans can't hurt us anymore-"
"HELP ME, ANNA!"
Elsa was struggling with her hands, stray snowflakes darting out and covering every available surface in ice. They dragged at her arms, pulling her towards the window can frosting it, leaving footprints of snow along the rug. "I can't control it!"
Anna rushed forwards, but was stopped by an involuntary barrier from her sister. "How do I-"
"I don't know! It's like they won't do what I tell them anymore! Ah!" Her arms shot forwards, a crystal spike shattering the window and exploding into the air.
"Well, what sent them off?!"
"How would I know?!"
Anna bit her lip anxiously. "I... I don't know what to do, then..."
Elsa lurched back, shooting the ceiling and making it snow furiously, inches of powder immediately coating the ground.
"Get away, Anna!"
With a final wave of her arm, a blast of magic sent Anna flying out the door and into the hall, door slamming shut almost immediately after.
"No! No no no! Let me in! Elsa! ELSA!"
And Elsa did not answer.
Kristoff jogged back to the castle, trying to chase down his thought of the cure. "I know this! I'm certain. If only Sven hadn't eaten all my thinking food-"
BANG
An icy bolt burst from the queen's window, exploding in a star-shaped blast that set a thin layer of frost over the town.
Kristoff's eyes widened, finally piecing everything together. "No way... Hang on, Anna! I'll be right there!"
And he set off towards the castle at breakneck speed.
A/N: Welp, one more down... A lot to go. Next update might take longer, due to homework and such. Oh, and don't forget to review!
