CHAPTER 2
We change out view to the small kingdom of Arendelle, located at the foot of the mountains in Norway. The small kingdom was currently celebrating the return of their queen and the permanent opening of the castle gates after over a decade of closure.
Lords and ladies flocked from many of the neighboring kingdoms to celebrate. In the center of all this hustle and bustle was the newly crowned, Queen Elsa of Arendelle and her younger sister, princess Anna of Arendelle. On the outside the queen probably looked aloof and composed but inside she was in just as much awe as her sister was.
"Name?" The man in charge of the guest list asked as Alexis was approaching the castle before speaking.
"Um Lady Alexis" She said blushing at the name she had to use.
"Lady Alexis Lady Alexis...AH HA here you are Lady Alexis of the White Kingdom welcome to the ball." He said as Alexis sneered coldly walking in.
"Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed..." The man muttered as Alexis walked in. Alexis hated having to use this attire and looked around. She had to keep her cool before she turned to see the queen. "Oh my..." She stated placing a hand over her mouth blushing like mad at the beautiful sight before her.
The man at the door passed the name and where Alexis was from to the Marshal who stood at the doors to the ballroom. He blows his horn to draw the attention of the guests before announcing. "Lady Alexis, of the White Kingdom." in a loud, formal tone.
Elsa turns her attention to the new guest. She was dressed in the same attire she had made for herself during her isolation on the North Mountain, it consisted of a pale blue dress that hugged her body in all the right places and had a snowflake design all through it. The material, while it looked like silk was actually made of the queen's own icy magic.
Alexis walked forward as she looked at the women and blushed 'she is very beautiful-GAH you're here on a mission Alexis get it together.' Alexis muttered to herself. Alexis gulped swallowing her pride. She had to treat this woman how she deserved...even if it hurt her pride to do so. Alexis took a mentally deep breath before bowing. "Your Majesty..." Alexis stated biting her lip trying not to blush at the women. What in the hell was going on with her?!
Elsa nodded her head politely at Alexis. "Lady Alexis, was it?" Elsa asked. "Welcome to my kingdom of Arendelle." she added courteously. While she waits for a response from the other female, she takes this chance to observe the other woman, in both poise and attire. She has to admit that the pure, white gown the other wears is very fitting for someone who hails from The White Kingdom.
Elsa allows her eyes to wander up to the other's face or more specifically her eyes. When she does, it's almost a task for her to keep from vocalizing what she sees. The look in the other female's eyes is a look she was all too familiar with, having seen it every time she looked into the mirror for the ten years she had spent in solitude.
"Thank you..." Alexis simply stated standing up after bowing. holding her hand to her temple as if she had some sort of headache as Alexis's eyes flickered from her soulless golden eyes to her brown eyes for a split second as she shook her head shaking off the headache as she took her hand off her temple and gave a rather ice cold smile but a smile none the less.
Even though the motion was only a split seconds, Elsa caught the flicker of the girl's eyes. 'So there is more to this girl than meets the eyes.' Elsa thinks to herself before returning a smile of her own. "How are you enjoying the party?" Elsa asked out loud.
"It's a nice party..." She simply said and blinked. 'Damn it am I forgetting the mission?! I am here to destroy her not small talk!' her white self growled to herself before Alexis's true self entered her head.
'How can you even think to destroy a beautiful woman like her, you cold heartless bitch!' she screamed as Alexis's white self growled.
'Stay out of this weak hearted fool!' she snapped to herself before looking around at the party she had to stall somehow and then smiled extending her hand out as some music picked up. "Do you wanna dance?" She asked smiling.
Elsa returned the smile and nodded her head as she placed one of her own hands in Alexis's offered one. Elsa was also wearing an icy blue nail polish which accented her dress perfectly. "I would love to." Elsa replies. 'This smile seems different than that previous one' Elsa noted.
Alexis smiled as she took Elsa's hand and lead her to the center of the ball room as Anna and Kristoph were in a hall away from the ballroom as she squealed. 'Too cute!' Anna squealed to herself as Alexis brought her and the Queen's hands on one hand and the other on her waist with a smile bringing her along for the dance.
'What in the world was wrong with her? She should be destroying this person but instead she was dancing with her...'
Elsa realizes that the offer to dance was probably a sudden choice and thus, she chooses to lead the dance. "I must admit I like your dress." Elsa compliments the other female as she leads the dance. 'I wonder what is up with this girl. At times she reminds me of myself during my isolated childhood, but other times she seems so different…'
Alexis heard the compliment as her face went deep red blushing. "T T Thanks..." She said and for the first time since being bought over to the light...she was stuttering she was slowly showing signs of her true self again and this could be a problem for Sartorius. Alexis was one of his key players in the society and if he lost her the Society would fall.
"So where is this, White Kingdom located?" Elsa asked curiously as she guided the other around the dance floor with graceful moves. Elsa had never heard of the White Kingdom and was curious about this place.
"Um O Off the coast of Japan...it doesn't have any connection to the Japanese government..." Alexis stated holding her head again in pain her eyes flickering that's when it hit the white side of her. 'The Light's hold is breaking because I am really far from it...this is NOT good Not good at all...' Alexis muttered to herself.
"I see. I had not heard of it before the marshal announced you." Elsa replied as she leads the dance with continued grace and confidence. Elsa noticed how Alexis suddenly holds her head. "Are you alright?" she asked a slight hint of worry in her sapphire blue eyes.
"I I It's nothing..." Alexis stated panting obviously the struggle between her true self and light self was really showing.
"Give me back my life and body you soul absorbing ...thing!" Alexis's true self in anger snapped as her white self countered.
"AS if we have a mission to complete bitch and you WILL listen." It snapped as Alexis smirked.
"You realize you just called yourself a bitch right?" Alexis said with a small smirk.
Elsa remains unaware of the struggle Alexis is having in her mind. Soon enough though, her eyes notice the grandfather clock on the wall which is about to strike midnight. "Alright then, thank you for the dance but I must announce the end of the ball." Elsa gives as an apology and pulls away from Alexis to stride to the front of the room.
She then proceeds to gain everyone's attention before speaking. "I wish to thank you all for coming. The party is ending shortly. If you plan to leave tonight, please head out. If you do not, there is plenty of room in the guest quarters of the castle and some of the castle servants will be out shortly to escort you."
"Shut up shut up just get out of my head!" Alexis's white self shouted in her head.
"YOUR HEAD?! YOU'RE IN MY HEAD YOU BASTARD!" Her true self shouted in anger.
"SHUT UP!" Her voice finally screamed out loud in both a mixture of her white self and trues self before finally she collapsed onto the ground in exhaustion.
