Queen Elsa of Arendelle was dying.

It had been a year since Elsa had reclaimed her throne. So much had happened in that time span. Anna and Kristoff finally got married and their baby girl, Rima, had been born only a few days ago. Olaf was still loved by everyone in the kingdom.

Just recently, Elsa had returned from a trip to the Southern Isles. She, her sister, and the royal advisor had travelled there in the hopes of mending the bond between the kingdoms. All was forgiven with Prince Hans, and he was still serving his time in prison. However, it was when they came back to their kingdom when trouble set in.

The symptoms of her illness were mild at first, with a simple fever, loss of appetite, and muscle aches. But when she started having nose bleeds with the rare vomiting blood, she knew something was wrong. The doctor had classified it was Yellow Fever, and simply said that there was no cure.

Now, here she was, lying under many blankets with many pillows supporting her- surrounded by the people she cared about and loved dearly.

"Anna, you shouldn't have the baby around me, it's not safe."

"I want Rima to spend as much time with her only aunt as much as possible."

When word spread that Elsa had been sick, the people started blaming the Southern Isles; but with Anna's calming words, the accusations stopped.

"I don't know how I can thank you, Elsa. It's because of you that Anna and I are together," Kristoff told the dying queen, who was always amazed about her ice skills.

"The two of you deserve each other."

"Elsa, I can't do this!" Anna cried, tears running down her face. "I can't rule Arendelle-not without you!"

"Anna, you can do it. You have the power to be a great queen; I know it," Elsa comfortingly said, as pain struck her abdomen.

"Does it really hurt?" Olaf asked.

"More than you can imagine. Oh, Olaf, I'm so sorry."

"What for?"

"When I die, there won't be any magic to keep you alive. You'll melt," Elsa said, crying, with the occasional drop of blood mixed with her tears.

"Elsa, this year has been the greatest I've ever had-as well as the only one I've ever had. Besides, some people are worth melting for."

Elsa shared a smile with the snowman she and her sister built.

Darkness crept in the corners of her vision. Her time was coming.

"Elsa, who is that man you kept mentioning, when you turned down all of those suitors?" Anna asked.

"Loki. I hope he forgives me."

"Maybe you'll see him again."

"Maybe."

Elsa's breathing grew harder and harder. But still, she hung on.

"Elsa, if it hurts, you can let go," Anna said, before she handed her baby to Kristoff and hugged her sister.

"I love you, Anna. Just know that everything I have ever done is because I loved you."

"I love you, too, Elsa."

And with that, the queen of Arendelle gave her final breath, and Elsa's spirit had left this Earth.

Elsa never really imagined what Asgard would look like, but as she stood on the rainbow bridge, she was amazed at the city in front of her. It's golden castle and beautiful city held her completely spellbound.

"You haven't changed at all."

Elsa turned to see Loki staring at her with a smile on his face. Immediately, Elsa hid her face.

"Loki, please don't look at me."

"Why not?" he asked, making his way over to her.

"I don't want you to see me like this," Elsa told him, remembering how sickly she looked back in Arendelle.

"Elsa, you look magnificent. Look for yourself."

Slowly, Elsa looked in the mirror that Loki had conjured and was surprised with the sight. She looked just as she did when the two of them built the ice castle together. Her tiara was still in place in her hair, and snowflakes were in her braid.

Elsa looked back at Loki, with tears in her eyes.

"Is this all real? Am I really here with you?"

"Yes, my love. After my last visit, Odin awoke. I asked him if I could take you as my immortal bride when you died, and he granted me that right."

"Do you mean- we have forever? Together?"

"Yes."

Elsa was crying tears of joy. She immediately kissed Loki, entangling her fingers in his hair. Loki, a little surprised by her action, returned the action, wrapping his arms around her and placing his hands on the small of her back.

"I missed you so much."

"And I you."

Like I would not give Elsa and Loki a happy ending. :)
