Elsa turns down another hall as she makes her way to the Slytherin common room. Messing with her tie nervously, she steps into the room. People stare and talk about her. Rumors she they have heard about her or how she looks evil, just like her father.
Elsa runs up to her room quickly and sits in her bed, trying to keep the tears at bay. She should be used to this by now, Elsa thinks to herself as she pulls out her wand.
It was her father's wand. She remembers finding it in an old room in the castle. She runs her finger over the smooth wood. No one knows why the wand choose her, but most suspect that it recognizes her as her father.
That thought scares her more than anything else.
The day she first used the wand was also the day she learned what her biggest fear was.
Elsa wondered around the large castle going from room to room, trying to find something interesting to occupy her time before Harry showed up.
She stepped inside a dark room, one that was dusty. Elsa found that odd because Kai always tried to keep every corner of the castle clean. As she looked around the room more, she came into contact with a bunch of magical items. One being the wand that would soon become hers.
As Elsa picked up the wand her eyes widened and goosebumps popped up all over her pale skin. The sensation of her magic coursing through her body became too much and found its way out through the wand.
Elsa became scared as she saw the damage she caused. She set the wand down but felt different after parting with the object. Elsa found that she felt more in control of herself with the wand so she brought it out of the room with her.
"Elsa what are you holding?" Harry asked causing Elsa to jump, not seeing him before. She held it up for him to see.
"I found it in an old room. When I picked it up my magic kind of exploded from it, but I feel better having it." She says looking slightly confused.
Harry took the wand and looked over it. "This was your father's wand." Harry tells her with a puzzled look on his face.
Elsa found herself walking towards Ollivander's Wand Shop, Harry by her side. After a long talk with a man, Garrick Ollivander, Elsa found that the wand did choose her. This even puzzled the wand maker, who looked at her closer.
"You are Elsa Riddle, correct?" He asks the young girl yet again. Elsa nods, making the wand maker frown.
"He did terrible things with his wand, but it still has a chance to be used for great things." The older man tells Elsa as he hands her back the wand.
Later that day, while Elsa was training, Harry noticed how distracted and closed off she became.
"Elsa what is wrong?" Harry asks gently as he stops training. The younger girl breaks down and starts to cry.
"What if I am meant to turn out just like him?" Elsa asks through teary eyes. Harry shakes his head and sits down beside the younger girl.
"Elsa, we choose our own paths. If you don't want to become like him, then don't." Harry tells her simply.
Elsa smiles softly as she remembers Harry's kind words. They made her feel a little better but she still had her father's blood running through her veins and his wand in her hand.
The next day as Elsa walks down the hall, her head ducked hoping no one would notice her until she heard a voice. It was the girl she met yesterday, that made her hands sweat and her heart to pump faster. Anna.
"Hey Elsa wait up!" She hears that lovely voice call after her, gaining more attention towards her. Anna stops right in front of her, a huge grin on her face.
"I'm happy I caught you. I was wondering if you would like to have lunch with me and some of my friends." The red-haired girl asks with a hopeful expression on her face.
"Anna, I'm not sure my presents is wanted there." Elsa says with some hesitance in her voice, because spending more time with this girl was something Elsa definitely wanted to do.
"Don't be silly, they won't mind you joining us. Now come on." Anna says as she pulls the older girl by the wrist towards the spot where all her friends were eating.
Everyone stared as Anna and Elsa stood in front of the group. "Everyone this is my friend Elsa, she is going to be eating with us. So try to be nice." Anna tells the group before plopping down on the grass.
Elsa sits down slowly trying to figure out if this was some cruel joke.
"So Elsa this is Kristoff," Anna says pointing to a built man sitting on the other side of her with blond hair, "That is Sven, Marshall, Rapunzel, and Eugene." She adds pointing to each person.
Eugene is the first one to speak, "So do you have all your dad's old, evil weapons?" He asks seeming to be actually interested. Elsa blushes as all the rest of the people look at her.
"Oh well there is a room in the castle that uh has his old stuff." Elsa says softly turning to look at Anna, feeling calmer when she looks at her. "This used to be his wand." Elsa adds on getting a bunch of different reactions from the group. Half looked scared to death but the other half looked incredibly interested.
"But I thought that was your wand, Elsa?" Anna questions her, her teal eyes doing something funny to Elsa's stomach.
"It is. It choose me, uh it's the only wand that would." Elsa tells her, hoping it wouldn't freak her out. Anna bites on her lip as she thinks.
"That's kind of weird." Anna tells her before seeing Elsa's face fall, "But a good weird, an interesting weird. Not saying that you are weird, because you aren't you are like super cool and beautiful…" Anna continues to ramble on, a blush rising to her cheeks and the tips of her ears.
The whole groups watches in amusement, looking from Elsa who is watching Anna in awe, to Anna who is throwing compliments to Elsa in every other sentence. All of the groups' smiles group as Anna realizes what she was doing.
"Sorry I tend to ramble on when I'm excited or when I'm nervous. It's a bad habit." Anna says ducking her head in embarrassment. Until she hears the sweetest sound ever. She looks over to see Elsa laughing, her hand over her mouth.
"I'm sorry, it's just really cute when you ramble on about everything that comes to your mind." Elsa tells the younger girl as she finally stops laughing. A blush overtakes her features as she realizes that she just called Anna cute.
Thankfully lunch is over, which saves both girls from further embarrassment. Elsa packs her things up quickly and says goodbye, before heading to away from the group.
Meanwhile, Anna watches her leave. "So when were you going to tell us you had a crush on Elsa?" Rapunzel asks teasingly. Anna's blush increases.
"Uh I don't know what you are talking about." Anna says while packing her stuff up, trying to ignore how right Rapunzel was.
"Oh come on Anna, don't lie to us. We just saw firsthand. It's fine if you do, I think she might even feel the same way." Kristoff says with a smirk on his face. Anna sighs and slumps her shoulders.
"I think I need to go talk to my dad." Anna says groaning as she walks away from the group, not letting herself think about how her heart raced as Kristoff said that Elsa might like her, that wasn't possible.
Elsa paces back and forth in front of the Potter's house. Harry gave her the address if there was ever an emergency. This was definitely an emergency in Elsa's mind. Thankfully Elsa had learned how to apparate.
Ginny opens the door with a smile on her face. "Hello who might you be?" Ginny asks very kindly.
"Oh right, I'm Elsa. I was wondering if Harry is here." Elsa asks feeling nervous meeting Anna's mother.
"Oh! He just left but should be back in a couple minutes. Why don't you come in and wait for him." Ginny says letting Elsa inside the house.
Elsa sits down, drinking some water looking around the cozy house. "You have a lovely house, Mrs. Potter." Elsa says trying to be polite.
Ginny laughs softly, "Please call me Ginny dear." Elsa nods and relaxes as she hears the door open.
"Mom, is dad here?" Anna asks walking in slightly surprised to see Elsa there. Even more surprised when the glass in Elsa's hand shatter, glass and ice everywhere.
"Oh god, I am so sorry." Elsa says, her face bright red, her body very tense at the moment. She was not expecting to see Anna there, even if it was her house.
"Oh don't worry about it dear, we will clean it up." Ginny says with a kind smile before turning to Anna, "And what are you doing here young lady?" Ginny asks in a very motherly voice. Anna grins awkwardly because the reason she was here was standing in the room.
"Oh you know, just came to see my favorite mother." Anna says awkwardly, getting an eyebrow raise from Ginny, telling her that she didn't believe a word she just said.
Instead of confronting Anna again Ginny grabs her wand and points it at the mess.
"Scourgify." Ginny says. Anna and Elsa watch as the glass and ice is cleaned up. Harry walks into the house.
"Anna what are you doing here?" Harry asks his daughter, not yet seeing Elsa.
"Just came to see you two." Anna answers laughing nervously before looking over at Elsa. Harry follows where Anna is looking and spots Elsa.
"Elsa. I didn't see you there. Is something the matter?" Harry asks shuffling the both of them into a different room, away from Anna and Ginny.
"There might be a little problem." Elsa responds while rubbing her wrists nervously. She was not sure how to tell her mentor that she might have a small crush on his daughter. Harry waits for her to explain herself.
Clearing her throat Elsa start to talk, "So I think I might have a little crush on someone and I am worried how it will affect my magic. Will I still be able to control it?" Elsa asks before looking at Harry, who is smiling softly.
"You should be fine Elsa, just try not to get to flustered, I know that you ice magic acts out more when you are. So who is this person?" Harry asks trying to be a father figure to Elsa.
Elsa blushes immediately, "Oh it is no one. Anyways I am going to go, thanks." Elsa says quickly before exiting the room.
At the same time Elsa and Harry talks, Anna and Ginny talk.
"So why are you really here?" Ginny asks, but has a small idea of what it could be, or rather who it could be. Anna blushes slightly as she sits down next to her mom.
"I think I have a crush on Elsa? But I don't know what to do. She seems so closed off, obviously for a good reason, but I want to get to know her more and I don't know how to do that without scaring her off." Anna explains her hands moving as she talks. Ginny just smiles softly, so she was right.
"Anna the second you walked in, Elsa's glass exploded. I think that is a good indication she likes you as well. But try to give her some space, you don't always have to be with her. She will come back to you." Ginny tells Anna. Anna pouts slightly
"How do you know that?" She asks not sure if that will work.
"Because that's what I did with your father and now look at us." Ginny says winking at Anna as Elsa walks out of the room.
"It was nice to finally meet you Elsa." Ginny tells Elsa before getting up and hugging the girl. For her part, Elsa tried to hug her back. She did however spot Anna watching her with those damn teal eyes.
"It was nice meeting you as well." Elsa says as they pull away. "Uh Anna would you like to go back to the school together?" Elsa asks all of a sudden a little unsure of why she asked that. Anna nods smiling.
"Yes I would really like that, just let me go say bye to my dad." Anna says before running off.
The two of them walked back to the castle together, in silence until Anna asks a question.
"So when were you born?" Anna asks making Elsa stop whatever she was thinking about before.
"May 2nd." Elsa answers softly while kicking a rock, her hands shoved into her pockets. Anna starts to think knowing she has heard that date before.
"That say seems super familiar." Anna says looking over at Elsa to see a sad expression on her face.
"It was the day that your father killed mine." Elsa tells Anna before looking up at her, "It was the day my dad died." Anna is at a loss for words for a second, not knowing the same day Elsa was born, her father died.
"I'm sorry I didn't realize-"Anna starts but is cut off by Elsa.
"No it's fine. I'm not sad he died, he was a bad guy. I'm just upset that there is another thing that connects me to him." Elsa explains looking over at Anna with neutral expression.
"It's another reason that people can tell me that I will end up like him. I hate it almost as much as I hate him for doing all the things he did." Elsa blurts out, not used to laying all her feelings out in the open for someone else. But when Anna stops her and pulls her in for a hug, Elsa knows she was going to be fine. Breathing in the smell of cinnamon relaxed her beyond belief.
"You won't turn out like him, you have to big of a heart for that." Anna whispers into her ear, than all of a sudden Elsa breaks down and buries her head into Anna's shoulder crying softly. Anna slightly surprised by this takes a chance to hug Elsa closer to her, to comfort her.
So I don't think this story with be that long, maybe only a few more chapters. Thanks for reading!
