Frozen, a tale of two Blizzards part 4

Tommy POV

I held Elsa close to me as she mourned the loss of her parents, like any decent friend would. To be honest, I felt that I was responsible for the Royal Ship's sinking. If the DC3 had been capable of higher speeds, if the winds hadn't been so strong, if I didn't have to pull up at that moment, the Royal ship might be afloat now.

Anna had gone to the funeral service alone, whilst Elsa and I stayed in the castle, mourning on our own. This was because extremes of emotion could inadvertently trigger our powers and we couldn't take the risk.

That day, I had flown multiple flights in the DC3 in a wreath laying ceremony over the place where the Royal ship had gone down.

"I can't believe Mum and Dad are gone!" Elsa cried.

"I know, witnessing death makes it a whole lot worse" I replied, trying to make Elsa feel better but to no avail.

Our magic began to flow out of us in waves, flooding the room with icy power.

I knew that I would have to go back to my homeland in the western kingdoms soon but I couldn't leave yet. How could I when my friend, the only one with the same powers as me was grieving?

"Elsa, look at me" I said, finally deciding to take control of the situation.

Elsa looked into my eyes.

"I will always be here for you, even if I can't physically be here, we can use our powers to communicate. And in three years you will become old enough to become queen of Arrendelle. I promise you that I will be there for that and any other time I can. But I will have to leave Arrendelle and return to the Western Kingdoms soon" I said.

"Tommy you can't go!" Elsa tried to protest.

"I know, I know, I don't want to leave you anyway but duty calls and my people will get very suspicious if you know what I mean" I replied with a grin.

Elsa giggled for a brief second before she resumed her composure.

"I know what will cheer you up. High speed racing in the mountains!" I added.

Elsa's ears perked up at that.

At that, we both used our Blizzard powers and zoomed off into the mountains.

Magic flew through the air as we used our powers to cheer ourselves up and also to remember Elsa and Anna's parents.

The failed attempt to rescue the Royal ship would scar our minds and hearts for years to come but we would eventually heal. I just knew it!
