A/N: I decided to do this before I posted chapter 6. I guess many of you might be worried for our dear Kristoff and I understand dearly and maybe the last chapter didn't give away many answers to all your question, but I think you'll be more satisfied by this chapter, I hope so. Once again, thank you for your lovely support. I was so surprised to wake up from sleep and see 9 reviews in a night in my time zone. Plus a new record for reviews per chapter with a 10th. Thank you so much!

Elsa was just returning from her interrogation of Sir Martin and she had gotten all her answers. It appeared he did not like the idea of a peasant dating royalty. Crazy to Elsa to do such a thing from such a weak motive, but he had to pay for his actions.

He was called in a few hours later for a trial with her council and even Anna had to be there as witness for the event. Even though Elsa was the queen and had more power than any of her council members, she wasn't able to make such decisions all by herself and neither just her nor Anna could do so. All the members of the council had a hard time understanding Kristoff's place in the council as a result of his weird title as Ice Master and Deliver, but they all loved Queen Elsa and Princess Anna and knew that they saw the mountain man as family and they knew Anna's romance with him was strong as well and they also had time to see how devastating not only Anna had been for losing her boyfriend, but also had lost someone who she had treated like a brother and poisoning a member of the council would be punished with either death or a lifetime behind bars. Under normal circumstances, a prisoner could choose which one to prefer, but in special cases like this one, it was the council to decide which punishment suited him best.

The guards entered the courtroom and looked at Elsa.

"Bring in the prisoner please! Elsa spoke in a calm voice that was a façade more than anything, she wanted to yell at them to get him in and get on with the hard trial where she personally hoped she could make it painful for him. She wanted more than anything to just freeze down his heart like with Anna, but that reminded too much about what happened back then, so no matter what she was up for another way to get him out of the way if that was that the punishment would turn out to be.

Sir Martin was brought up and didn't bother to look at Elsa, as he knew she already had spoken up all the answers he had given her to her council, he just wanted a punishment because he had a feeling there was no one he could count on to help him.

"The court against Sir Martin of the Eastern Isles, who is accused for poising Sir Kristoff Bjorgman, is now beginning. In charge are Queen Elsa of Arendelle and Princess Anna of Arendelle with influence of the royal council" every stood up and looked down at him as Elsa suddenly got everyone including Sir Martin also sat down in a chair in the middle of the room where he was guarded by four men who had swords in their hands in case he tried anything crazy like running off.

"First of all. Do you deny that you poisoned Mr Kristoff Bjorgman" Sir Martin shook his head and answered no.

"Do you want to appeal whatever you'll get for sentence?" Sir Martin thought for a moment and knew there was no way out. Elsa had told him that the king of the Eastern Isles was ready to punish him and send him to Arendelle if he returned and many of Arendelle's trading partners had agreed to on look for him as well. What could he do against the Snow Queen? Nothing was the simple answer to him and he agreed to go in with the answer and was asked to taken out while the council would make their decision with Queen Elsa and Princess Anna.

"I hereby decide to imprison you on a ship back to the Eastern Isles where the king will decide if you get to live or not. Court dismissed" Anna was surprised at how easy he had been punished. She had expected Elsa to do a bit more for that crime. Anna made sure to shoot Elsa an unsatisfied and angry glare before she left for her room and locked the door and slammed her petite body onto her big bed and put her head on the pillow. Right now, she didn't want to talk to anybody.

Elsa meanwhile didn't know what she should do about Anna. Of course Anna didn't know anything about Elsa's arrangement with the king of the Eastern Isles and all that, but still she was taken aback by the nasty glare Anna showed her. It was something she had never seen before from Anna. It was almost like some sort of hatred or regret about Elsa and she didn't like it and after some thinking, she decided to go and tell Anna about it. Kristoff was one of the most important people to Anna and if she thought Elsa would let his murder get away with a little punishment then she didn't knew Elsa completely. It was one of the crimes Elsa would make sure to punish the hardest and of course also because Kristoff had been so close with herself over time.

Elsa stood outside Anna's room shortly after leaving her own room and took a deep breath before she knocked the door softly.

"Who is it?"

"It's me Anna" Anna seemed to recognize Elsa's voice immediately and it apparently didn't effect her mood for the better of hearing her right now.

"Go away Elsa. I can't believe you did what you did today" Anna was bearing a mixture of sadness and madness in her voice and since she didn't know about the arrangement, Elsa didn't want to blame her for it. She figured it would be best to spill it out as quickly as possible to make sure Anna wouldn't stay mad at her or anything.

"Anna, please let me in. There is something important I need to tell you" Anna tried to make herself see things more clear and went over and opened the door and Elsa embraced Anna before she even had a chance to react or say anything. Anna soon returned the embrace and laid her head on Elsa's shoulder and the two sisters then sat down.

"What is it you wanted to tell me Elsa?" Elsa remembered after getting lost in thoughts. She thought about how adorable her sister could be and how weird she could be at the same time. One moment she was very upset with her and the next moment she was warming her heart up to her once again as she had tried to do so many times through the years. Elsa was still impressed by the way she had wanted to get so close even with all the times Elsa shut her out. She when explained the whole situation to Anna and told her about the deal with the king of the Eastern Isles and promised Anna that he wouldn't have to hope for an easy treatment at his own kingdom either.

Suddenly Anna's expression changed. From an expression of misunderstanding changed into an expression of sorry. Anna felt sorry for not having trust in her sister when she had been a great support to her through all these hard days. Elsa was also, to say it the least, taken by surprise when Anna flew her arms around her shoulders once more after she had been able to explain everything to her and the sisters sat and talked for hours and seemed to be in a good mood when they were interrupted by Kai who told the chef had finished their dinner and asked if they wanted it up here or not. It was then Elsa turned her looks towards Anna and indicated it was all up to her and Anna nodded and Elsa walked over to the door and asked Kai to get some servants to bring the stuff up to Anna's room and Kai bowed politely as always and went out to make the arrangements for the royal sisters.

As the sisters finished their delicious meal of beef with sauce, potato and salad, they were surprised to see the other loyal servant Gerda standing outside the room with an extra platter. Anna got up to see what she had brought with her and was delighted when she smelled one of her favourite smells, chocolate.

"The chef knows it's hard for the two of you and apparently someone has told him about your love for chocolate and therefore he has baked a chocolate cake for the two majesties" Anna smiled and took the platter as Elsa joined them to see the masterpiece who smelled like a dream and smiled gratefully at Gerda.

"Give the chef my gratitude for everything tonight" Gerda nodded, bowed and then excused herself and left the royal sisters to eat the cake that didn't take them a long time to make sure their stomachs were more than just filled up. They were so full they thought they'd throw up if they ate any more food within the next forty-eight hours.

Shortly after the cake was eaten, both sisters started to get very sleepy and Elsa asked if she could sleep in Anna's room with her and Anna was more than overjoyed that Elsa wanted to spend the night together. Anna embraced her once more and Elsa returned it gratefully.

"I'm so happy we can sleep together, then my nightmares might start to go away" Elsa was wondering why Anna hadn't informed her about these nightmares. She thought it was because Anna wanted to take some problems out of Elsa's mind and still it felt wrong.

The two sisters soon fell asleep and again Anna started to get the same dream about the spirits that she just had told Elsa all about. She had started to wonder what these dreams could mean or if they even meant anything at all, but she had an idea that it had to be for some reason she kept having the same dream every night ever since Kristoff passed away from her or close to every day since then.

"Hello Princess Anna"

"Oh it's you again?" Anna answered questioning and without many emotions. The spirit started to take another form and it was a form she seemed to recognize because of the way the hair sat and the nose and the eyes that seemed a shade of brown.

"Kristoff! It is you?" Anna seemed to not believe what her eyes showed her. It seemed too unreal.

"Yes Anna, it's me. It's been all the time. Do you really love me so much as it seems through your dreams?" Anna was starting to tear a bit up as kept rolling around and Elsa waken up by her unsteady sleep, but decided not to wake her as she was told it was dangerous to do if she was about walk in her sleeps and she heard it started to like this, so she waited for Anna's actions and tried to understand her mumbles.

"Of course I do Kristoff! It feels like I can't live much longer without you at my side. Isn't there any way you can be brought back, I have been sneaking in to your room and kiss you everyday to prove my love to you and hope for an effect at some point. That's why your body hasn't been buried yet. Because I convinced Elsa to wait some time" Kristoff's spirit smiled at her and moved closer to Anna and if she hadn't been standing against a tree, she would have backed off because she felt her pulse rise and didn't knew how she'd feel if he came too close. Sorry for not being able to embrace and kiss him or happy to see his eyes and his smile again.

"What is you love about me?"

"Why do you ask me such things?"

"Because I do Anna. Now answer my question please" it was like he was trying to hide some emotions or something like that, but she didn't knew how to answer it. She loved everything about her mountain man, but she knew he was searching for details.

"Where should I begin Kristoff? First of all I loved the nice looks you got, you're such a great looking guy, I love the way you treat me like a person and not just some doll like Hans did. I love your way with animals and how you treat everyone around you with respect and you seem determined to prove you were good enough for me. But most of all, I love your personality and that always wanted what was best for me and always had the best for me in mind and for Elsa" she seemed to spot a tear fall down Kristoff's cheek and she tried to dry it away when she found it was impossible with his status as a spirit. At that point she woke up and cried into Elsa's arms. She had for a second thought it was a real dream and now her hoped had been truly crushed. The spirit had turned out to be Kristoff, but she knew deeply inside herself that such a miracle as the one she was hoping for wasn't going to be real anytime soon or ever at all.

"Why can't anything except you seem to be right around me, Elsa? I love you and all, but I don't feel complete without Kristoff!" Elsa saw it more as a confession than a question. She didn't know what to say, but kept Anna in her arms and tried to be as comforting as possible.

All the night went on without anymore nightmares or such, but still Anna didn't feel like she had a good night sleep for quite some time and she was considering seeing a doctor to talk about it because it was starting to get annoying.

Two days later as sunset was over and the sky had gone to sleep, Anna was sitting at her balcony. She was deeply in thoughts and found the sky truly beautiful and suddenly her door opened, but Anna didn't notice who stepped inside her room and suddenly the figure stood behind her and spoke up, as she was shocked. Not only because she wasn't expecting anyone, but also because she knew whom the voice belonged to, but didn't want to believe it as her hopes seemed to have gotten lost.

"The sky is truly beautiful as you Anna" Anna turned her head and gasped as she saw the tall figure standing there in front of her and she didn't say anything, but only touched his cheek and his hair to make sure if her mind wasn't playing her. It wasn't. She sprang onto the figure with all her powers and kissed his soft lips as she had a nice look into a pair of soft brown eyes.

"Kristoff! It's really you!" Anna sobbed into Kristoff's shoulder and couldn't control all her emotions that seemed to turn all around. Right now she never wanted to let go of the blonde mountain man who seemed to miraculous have cheated death anyway and

"It's me Anna, don't worry I'm right here and I won't leave you" Anna looked up at him and saw determination in his eyes. He truly meant every word.

"Oh Kristoff, don't ever frighten me like that again! I love you too much to let you go again!"

"I love you too feisty-pants" Anna giggled at her nickname. Just hearing him call her that again made her feel like her life made sense once again. Then all those days of lack of sleep took over her and for the first time in what felt like ages, she slept tightly and safely in Kristoff's strong arms.
