Back in the ballroom, Anna pushed through the crowd towards Elsa with Hans following her. "Elsa!" the younger sister happily exclaimed. "This is Hans, and I just accepted his offer!"
Elsa was confused. "What offer?"
"He's going to take me to a special school for mutants like us!" Anna continued, still happy.
"Excuse me?" Elsa asked. "Mutants?"
"Trust me, your majesty," Hans said. "Mr. Eisenhardt is a good teacher. I know he can help Anna."
"Sure the school is in another world, but no biggie," Anna said.
"Wait, slow down," Elsa said. "No one is leaving this world."
"Wait, what?" Anna asked.
"May I talk to you alone?" Elsa asked her sister.
"No," Anna responded. "Whatever you have to say, you can say to both of us."
"Fine," Elsa said. "You can't just go running off with a man you just met."
"You can if he's trustworthy," Anna argued.
"And you trust him why?" Elsa argued back. "What do you even know about trust? About friendship?"
"A lot more than you!" Anna answered. "Look at you, benevolent snow queen of Arendelle! So many friends! Ha!" she spat. "They only like you because of what you can give them! Ice rinks and snowball fights! If you couldn't do that, they'd still only like you because they'd be scared of you! Your only real friend is a talking snowman!"
"Did I hear someone talk about me?" came Olaf's voice as the lovable snowman walked up.
The snow queen pulled Olaf in for a one-armed hug. "I was forced to make Olaf so I wouldn't go insane from isolation. Isolation you forced on me, dear sister. Now please calm down, you're making a scene."
"Why should I?!" Anna asked, feeling her inner temperature start to rise. "Why shouldn't I be the center of attention for once?! You were always the star of the show! The spotlight was always on you!"
"Enough, Anna," Elsa said.
"Everyone always paid attention to you! To your powers! Never mine!" Anna continued. "Why was I shunned?! Why did no one ever care about Princess Anna?!"
"..." Elsa was speechless for a moment. What had years alone done to her baby sister? "I did care, Anna," she spoke. "Now please, calm down. This isn't you."
"Who are you to say what's me and what's not me?!" Anna shouted back, clearly angered by her sister's words. Small flames started to fill her hands, her fingers feeling drenched in hot magma and burning like the sun.
Elsa noticed the fires on her sister's body, enveloping her hands. She reached out one of her own, glowing with a cool, icy blue. "Anna... Don't..."
As soon as Elsa's hand touched Anna, she immediately pushed it away with a burning fist. The swing of her arm accidentally sent fires spreading across the room, burning the tables, overcooking the food and setting many clothes on fire. Anna stood in place as the flames grew of their own accord, causing some people to jump about and run to avoid the flames.
"What is this sorcery?" the Duke said, ducking behind his men. "How can this be? The fair Anna, a demon of fire? What witchcraft is this?!"
Anna breathed heavily, looking around the room. Because of the magical flames, her appearance had transformed. The bottom of her dress was scorched and her hair was partially loose. But the huge change was in her face. She looked angry and her eyes had turned a dark red. Lines drew from her eyes, her face appearing to be cracked. "Anna..." Elsa quietly said.
The fire princess looked at Hans. "You were right," she said. Then she rushed out of the room, leaving a fiery trail in her footsteps.
Elsa, Olaf and Hans watched her go. The Duke turned to his guards. "What are you standing around for? Give chase! Catch that flaming demon!"
Outside, Anna burst out of the castle door. The crowd of people noticed her presence as she walked down the steps.
"That's the queen's sister."
"Shouldn't be at the party?"
"Maybe she had too much to drink."
"Don't you think she looks tired?"
Anna shoved her way through the crowd, angry at the words she heard. "Are you all right?" a woman asked.
The fiery princess responded by raising her hands into the air. Immediately a wave of fire surrounded her, burning all it touched. The fire spread to the nearby skating rink, turning it into a large puddle of water. Gasps of shock and fear swept over the crowd. As she unleashed her power, Anna felt strange. Finally freeing her hidden power and seeing the people run in terror, she didn't feel the fear she had originally thought. She felt...empowered. She felt victorious. She had the power! Hans was right, people like her were the future, and these unimportant humans were afraid of that, were unwilling to accept that, were willing to stop that, at any cost.
The Duke and his men come out the door. "There she is!" the Duke exclaimed. "Stop her!"
Anna smirked. "I don't think so," she said, forming a flame sphere between her hands. Then she threw the sphere at the staircase as a warning shot.
"Monster..." the Duke said. "Monster!"
The crowd panicked as fire appeared randomly. Satisfied, Anna dissolved her wave of fire as Elsa ran out of the palace doors with Olaf following her. "Anna!" the older sister cried out.
The flame princess turned back to face her 'sister'. "Don't stop me, Elsa! I'm beyond you!" she cried out. "In fact, I'm above you! I'm above all of these people!"
"What's gotten into you, Anna?!" Elsa shouted, shocked at such words coming from her baby sister's mouth. "What did that guy tell you?!"
Anna again felt her power rising, to a level she had never reached before, and she loved it. "His name is Hans! And he told me the truth!" she replied back. "That people like us, we are the true rulers of the world! And humanity is afraid of us! This world hates and fears us!"
Elsa tried to talk some sense into Anna. "You're not helping matters anyway."
Anna laughed. "I don't care! I longed for acceptance but never got it, so why should I wait any longer?!" As she spoke, a bright light suddenly appeared in her hands, slowly engulfing her entire body. "Now is the time I take my rightful place! Now is the time to teach humanity a lesson, starting with Arendelle! Pray for your kingdom, dear sister, because soon it will be Arendelle's turn... TO BURN!"
And with that, Anna vanished in a bright light, sending a wave of flame across all of Arendelle, evaporating all of the clouds in the sky, the air becoming hotter than before.
"What... Just... Happened?" Olaf asked.
"I'll tell you what has happened!" the Duke exclaimed. "The fire witch has cursed this land! She must be stopped!"
"No!" Elsa cried out. "You can't harm my sister!"
"There is also sorcery in you," the Duke said. "Are you a monster, too?"
"Of course not," Elsa said. "I learned to control my powers when I was a little girl. The people of Arendelle know I'm not a threat."
"So we except you to fix this?" the Duke asked.
"Anna's outburst was my fault," Elsa said. "I pushed her. So I'm the one that needs to go after her." She took off her crown and gave it to a castle servant. "Keep this safe until I return," she ordered.
"Wait, so you're going to go out there by yourself?" Olaf asked.
Elsa walked down the steps as the crowd cleared a space for her, knowing what was going to happen. "I don't want you to get hurt," she told Olaf. "It's best for you to stay here." Then she concentrated on her ice powers, trying to see if she could modify her outfit.
In a swirl of magical ice, Elsa changed her appearance. Her hair fell loose into a single braid, snowflakes woven in to hold it in place. Her teal dress became light blue and her magenta cape became white and translucent. The Arendelle natives applauded when she was done, showing the Duke that they really accepted her, ice powers and all.
"Until I return, I want everyone to listen to the palace caretakers," Elsa ordered. She looked at another castle servant. "And make sure Hans doesn't leave the perimeter."
But Olaf, being a stubborn little guy, walked over to Elsa. "I'm coming," he insisted.
"But you'll melt," Elsa said.
"You and Anna made me," Olaf explained. "I'm living proof of the sisterly bond. Maybe she'll calm down when she remembers the fun times you both had."
Elsa knew Olaf had a good point. "Fine," she said. "Just hold on tight."
With Olaf holding on to her left hand, Elsa aimed her right hand at the ground, creating a small blizzard beneath her feet. That blizzard was strong enough to lift her, allowing her to midair ice skate and start her search for Anna.
Speaking of Anna, she was high up in the mountains. The fiery princess stood on the highest peak, looking at the kingdom. She was feeling a mixture of emotions, angry at Elsa for being the better sister and satisfied with her newfound release.
Now the time has come at last
The girl with snow and frost
Has turned the age twenty-one
And is now the new queen
Now what a lovely night this is
To walk a moonlit field
To see the softer shades
That are by starlight now revealed
So why is it that now,
When I have become just the spare
When crystals glow and all the world
Is at its very best
The people of fair Arendelle
Should lock themselves away
To shun the heat and wait instead
For sister's icy glow?
Anna let some small flames appear in her hands, amazed she could let them die down upon command. Smiling, she sent flames out from all around, letting the fire grow.
Am I so wrong to wish that they
Would see things like I do?
And am I so wrong to think
That they might fear my flames?
Why shouldn't they adore me?
Is it not within my right?
I'll not be overshadowed!
Mine is not the lesser sprite!
I've waited long enough now
For them all to come around
And though the snow may plead and threaten,
The flames shall stand her ground
At that point, Anna was surrounded with fire. When the sun appeared in the sky, it felt hotter than usual.
And all will know the wonder
Of my hot and burnt-up ash
When all the world is trapped in
An eternal darnation
So say goodbye at this,
The final winter of your lives
Tomorrow dawns in bright flares
The heatwave has begun!
As bright flames spiraled around Anna, she laughed evilly. Now it was her turn to take charge, and she was going to let it burn.
