Thanks for all the support! Now on to the fun part haha ;)
Oh also I changed my mind, I do want Olaf in the story. Because what's Frozen without Olaf?!
Kristoff rolled his neck with a sigh as the route to the North Mountain grew steeper. Sven huffed beside him. He was tired too.
"We should be there soon buddy."
They walked for another hour before resting. Kristoff found a comfortable spot in the shadow of the mountain. Sven immediately flopped onto the snow and nibbled on a carrot. Kristoff took a small slice of bread and chewed on it. A light laugh split through the air. Kristoff looked around.
"What was that?"
Sven finished his carrot in one bite and went to Kristoff's side. They both edged along the rock wall towards the laughter. Kristoff poked his head around the corner. His jaw dropped.
A little snowman was jumping around in the snow, kicking it up and laughing at it as it fell down. Kristoff was too shocked to notice Sven try to look too and fall into the snow. The snowman turned in their direction and gasped.
"HELLO?"
Kristoff clenched his teeth. "...H-hi..."
"I'M OLAF!" The little snowman ran over and began shaking Kristoff's glove.
Kristoff blinked a few times. Am I hallucinating? "Olaf..."
"Who's your donkey?!"
"He's a reindeer! ...his name is Sven."
"HI SVEN!" Olaf hugged him. Sven looked up at Kristoff in confusion.
"...uh huh...okay Olaf...do you know where the queen of Arendelle is?"
"Who?"
"Queen Elsa?"
"Elsa's a queen? I didn't know that! THAT'S AWESOME HAHA!" He ran off in the other direction.
"HEY!" Kristoff began to run after him. "Where are you going?!"
"I'm going to talk to Queen Elsa! She didn't tell me she was a queen..."
Kristoff picked up his pace and followed the snowman's voice. After a few minutes they had reached the West side of the mountain. Kristoff slowed down and caught his breath. When he looked up it was like his lungs had stopped working.
Before him stood a magnificent ice palace, gleaming shadow of the mountain peak. Kristoff gawked at the detailed patterns along the side and the smooth surface of each inch of ice.
"...Now that's...ice..."
"SVEN! LARGE MAN! OVER HERE!"
Kristoff and Sven walked to the large staircase that went over a split in the mountain. Kristoff ran his hand over the rail.
"You guys stay here while I-"
"WAIT!" Kristoff yelped. Olaf stopped and looked at him. "...uhm...hey...how about you watch Sven for me? While I talk to the queen."
"You'll talk to Elsa for me?"
"Sure!" Kristoff faked a smile. "But i need you to stay here...right here...and watch Sven."
"SURE! I'll watch your donkey for you! Come on Sven!"
"Reindeer..." Kristoff muttered. He watched Sven happily follow the little snowman back towards where they came from. Kristoff turned back to the castle. He slowly started up the stairs.
"Flawless..."
He stared at the big door. He hesitated. A thousand horrible scenarios went through his head. One being the angry queen freezing him into a big ice harvester statue.
Relax Kristoff...she's not going to hurt you...you just want to talk about her sister...who she might not even like...
Kristoff groaned and went to knock on the door.
*knockknock knockknock knock*
The doors creaked open on their own. Kristoff took a deep breath and took a step into the ice palace. He couldn't help but gawk and the glittering interior. He got to the grand staircase before he heard hurried footsteps.
"Hello?" He called.
"Who are you?" A stern voice called from up the stairs. Krisotff could see the faintest silhouette through the wall.
"I'm Kristoff...an ice harvester..."
"Get you! You can't have my ice!"
"No that's not what i meant-"
"GET OUT!"
"Nonono your majesty wait-"
"I SAID GET OUT!" Ice spikes began to form in the walls. The wind had started to pick up. The silhouette started up the stairs behind the wall.
Kristoff clenched his fists and took a breath. "YOUR SISTER SENT ME!" The silhouette froze.
The wind died instantly. The queen's voice was shaky. "Anna sent you?!"
"Yes...she was going to come up here herself...but she caught a cold the night you left..."
"She...got sick...?" The queen had started down the stairs. Her silhouette growing larger as she descended.
"Yeah she was out searching all night..." Kristoff realized he had started up the stairs too.
He felt his entire body tense as the queen came into view. He'd seen his fair share of portraits and silhouettes of the queen, but this was completely different than what he'd pictured in his head.
He hadn't expected the sparkling dress, that looked like it was completely made of ice, or how tightly it fit on her figure. Kristoff started to think of something to say before a blush could creep onto his cheeks.
"Um I uh um..." he stammered. He felt like he'd lost his train of thought. "You...um...your..."
"My sister?"
"Dress...I MEAN YES! Yes...Princess Anna...because she's a princess...you're...a queen...queen Elsa..."
"You seem a bit tongue tied." The queen said softly. Kristoff noticed the corner of her mouth twitch into a smile.
"Ha..well...I...you-"
The doors of the castle burst open suddenly. Olaf came running in.
"ELSA ELSA ELSA"
"Olaf! What's wrong?"
"It's the donkey! HIS TONGUE IS STUCK TO THE STAIRS!" Olaf yelled as if someone had been murdered.
Elsa and Kristoff both laughed lightly. Kristoff couldn't help but glance back at her. He caught her big smile from her laugh. It was one of the most beautiful smiles he'd ever seen. She noticed his gaze and her smile fell.
"I..I should help your donkey..."
"He's actually a reindeer..." Kristoff scratched his head awkwardly. He tensed as the Queen crossed the landing to the other staircase and started down the steps. He went after her. She was already halfway down the steps when he began going down.
"Wait your majesty about your sister-"
Kristoff yelped as her suddenly lost his footing and fell. He hit his head and saw black spots. He heard a soft voice call his name just before he blacked out.
Kristoff
*sighs loudly* IT BEGINS
So I hope you caught my little do you wanna build a snowman reference ;)
I'm liking how this started out. I was going to have some long ridiculous description about how sexy Elsa looks but I have a feeling it would've been a little out of character for Kristoff. He's going to start to look at Elsa more as he gets to know her. Ja feel?
Thanks for reading!
