They are in Corona...that's all I will say here...


Title: Storm Chasers

Genre: Humor/Action


"Why I even chose to come with you I have no idea!" Idun screamed.

"Because you love us!" Anna and Elsa shouted down before laughing.

"Deals dear...it'll be alright." Agdar said as he patted his wife on the back... other hand was clutching the rope. They four of them had decided, to go climbing and Rapunzel knew the best place to do it on.

"Aw...my little sister is scared of heights..." Queen primrose laughed as Idun cast a glare in her direction. The eight of them were about 75 meters above the to find, suspended by a series of ropes that were dug into the side of the cliff. Below them was the ocean meaning that if they fell, at least they would have a nice place to land in.

"Hold on...I've got to readjust my rope." Eugene said as he untangled the role that was on his arm. "Much better."

Anna used the ice picks that Elsa had designed for this purpose to pull herself up and attach the rope a foot above her. The top of the cliff was only about 20 feet am away from where they were..

"Idun! You've got to move up a bit so we can as well." King Harold shouted up.

"I...I can't..." Idun squeaked as she looked down and saw how far to was to the ground.

"Agdar! Do something!" Harold shouted out.

"I'm trying!" Agdar said as he swung over to his wife and held her. "Hold on to me!"

Idun nodded as she gripped her husband tightly. Agdar detached the rope from the cliff surface before climbing up a bit until he was level with Elsa before he attached the rope again. Primrose, Harold and Eugene climbed up a bit as Anna and Rapunzel also pushed further up the cliff.

"Are we there yet?" Idun asked her husband as she gripped him even harder.

"No...not yet...just another...1000 feet."

"WHAT?"

"He's joking sister!" Primrose laughed as she got to the same level as Idun and Agdar.

"It is very hard to see you as her sister." Agdar said. "I mean...you enjoy doing crazy stuff like this yet Idun is completely freaked out by it..."

"I know... You couldn't tell we're sisters from what we do..." Primrose laughed.

"Stop..." Idun whimpered.

"Darling...even Elsa isn't afraid of rock climbing and with all honesty, it was her I was expecting to be afraid."

"Hey!" Elsa shouted from above. "I'm not some kind of weakling that's scared of everything as well as her own shadow! I'm like Anna!"

"No offense sister...but you'll never be like me..." Anna boasted.

"You say that like it's a good thing." Elsa retorted causing Eugene and Rapunzel to laugh.

"I've always wondered if snow queens can fly..." Anna said out loud. Elsa immediately stopped as Eugene and Rapunzel laughed even harder.

"Would you two please move on so I can stop your mother from strangling me to death...thank you!" Agdar yelled upwards. Slowly but carefully, the eight of them climbed up the cliff and eventually reached the top of it.

"Land!" Idun gasped as she flopped down on the ground, her husband and daughters sniggering lightly in front of her. She growled slightly as she sat up and looked at them.

"Your majesty?" A guard asked as he and several other guards approached them.

"What is it Dresdon?" Harold asked.

"We have a major problem your majesty. You're needed back at the castle immediately your majesty." The guard said.

"Why? Is something wrong?" Harold asked.

"I'm afraid so...well...soon enough anyway!" The guard said. The eight of them looked at each other before looking back at the guard.

"What do you mean, soon enough?" Harold asked.

"That's all they said your majesty. I advise that we get back to corona as soon as possible."The guard said. The lot of them followed the guard back to their horses and mounted them before heading back as fast as possible to corona.

Back at the castle...

"What's going on? What's this emergency the guard was talking about?" Harold asked as be entered the castle.

"Your majesty. We have a major problem." One of the people said. "I'm Martin Theodore of the Corona Atmospheric and Weather Administration."

"What's CAWA doing here?" Harold asked as the other seven entered the castle.

"What's going on dear?" Primrose asked as she stood next to her husband.

"I don't know yet. What is going on martin?" Harold asked.

"Well, we have been monitoring a cyclonic system for a while now...for the last two weeks actually. It formed in the mid Atlantic. One of our ships detected it and since then we've been sending more ships to observe it. Over the past week or two the storm has been intensifying into hurricane." Martin stated.

"So, how does this concern us?" Harold asked.

"Well sir...the storm is enroute to corona sir." Martin said.

"What? How long? How strong is it?" Harold asked.

"Well, the last ship we sent in there reported wind speed in excess of...160 miles per hour." Martin said with a wince. Everyone just gasped at that point. "This storm will directly hit corona in around 40 hours sir. The eye of the storm itself will make landfall here in corona at around 2pm Friday."

"And you're sure to this?" Harold asked, completely stunned.

"Yes sir. It is not advisable to send any ships out into the sea at the moment. Ships as close as a mile from our coasts are reporting waves of more than three meters in height." Martin said.

"Oh god...what will that type of storm do to corona?" Harold asked.

"Well...if I wanted to make you feel better I would say...extensive damage. But, I'm going to tell you the truth...catastrophic damage with a 99 percent chance of loss of life and over fifty million in damage!" Martin said. "That is the no-bullshit assessment."

"Great...just great!" Harold yelled as he stormed inside the dining room, the seven others following behind him.

"Relax darling. I'm sure everything will be alright." Primrose comforted as she placed a hand on her husband's shoulder. Anna, Elsa, Idun and Agdar looked at each other for a few seconds before Elsa spoke up.

"So what's happening?" Elsa asked.

"There is a hurricane moving towards corona that will hit us in less than two days. It is not safe to send any ships out anymore since several ships are already reporting rough waters and storm surges are a high possibility." Harold said as he sat down on a chair.

"So, what does that mean for us?" Agdar asked.

"Well, I can't permit you to leave. We can't risk it because of the rough waters and the possibility of rogue waves. I'm afraid that you're just going to have to stay here." Harold said as he pulled out a small glass and poured some whisky into it. "Now I've got to drown my concern..."

"That never helps." Primrose said with a roll of her eyes as she, Rapunzel and Eugene disappeared upstairs.

"So, how strong is this storm in comparison to...say...the one that sunk our ship four years ago?" Agdar asked as he, Elsa, Anna and Idun sat down at the table.

"Well, the one that sunk your ship was a tropical storm that had sustained winds of 50 miles per hour and gusts reaching 60 miles per hour. In comparison, this has 160 mile per hour sustained winds and over 190 mile per hour gusts according to CAWA." Harold stated.

"So...on a scale of one to ten, one meaning okay, and Ten meaning completely fucked, where are we?" Agdar asked.

"Eleven."

"Good to know." Agdar muttered. "So we've got around 40 hours till the storm hits."

"Yes. As long as we stay within the castle though, we should be alright. Though I have no idea how the rest of corona is going to fare. Most of our houses are constructed from stone or brick but there are still a lot of structures made of wood." Harold said. "I have a feeling this storm is definitely going to change corona a lot."

"Well if that's the case, wouldn't it be safer to be out of corona?" Idun asked.

"Would you like to go sailing in 10 foot waves?"

"Oh...not after what happened before." Idun muttered.

"I guess the only thing to do now is wait." Harold said as he drunk and entire glass of whisky.


36 hours to landfall...

"What's going on?" Anna asked as she approached one of the Coronian citizens. She, Elsa and Rapunzel had decided to go for a little walk around the kingdom to see what was going on. The first sight they were greeted with was all the citizens outside with nails, wood and various other construction materials hammering stuff to their homes.

"Well, with this incoming hurricane, we've got to board up our homes so that we can minimize the damage. Others on the other hand..." The citizen said as he pointed to the main gate were several people were leaving with baggage, children and horse. "...decide that it would probably be safer if they decided to leave corona altogether. Me? I thinks better to stay here because of the military and the aid we'll get immediately after the storm."

"So, you know what it's like to be in one of these storms?" Elsa asked.

"Well, yes and no. We've experienced hurricanes before but never on this scale before. The strongest one that has ever made landfall in corona was hurricane Maurice and that had winds of up to 100 miles per hour. That one absolutely devastated corona and it took nearly a year to fix a majority of the structures here." The citizen answered. "But one on this scale before? This is going to be a whole new thing."

"I've never really experienced a hurricane before." Anna said to Rapunzel. "Have you?"

"Well, I remember when I was twelve years old, I was still in that tower with mother gothel then, that there was a hurricane one day. But it wasn't the one he was talking about. This one was a lot weaker but even then it was destructive. It knocked down half the trees in our area. Originally, I was frightened because I thought the tower might come down in the wind! You've never experienced a hurricane before?" Rapunzel asked.

"Nope...we've had thunderstorms though." Anna replied.

"I heard that hurricanes are one of the most mysterious forms of weather events." Elsa said. "They are formed when warm waters create an area of low pressure. When this begins to develop a spin and it has low wind shear and good convection currents and outflow, then it becomes a hurricane that is steered with pressure troughs and ridges and...you have absolutely no idea what I'm saying...do you?"

"Sorry Elsa. My tutor never taught me how to speak dork." Anna replied as Rapunzel snorted in amusement.

"You know, it wouldn't hurt to learn something about stuff like this once in a while."

"I know how hurricanes work! They start when warm waters create clouds and they start spinning and stuff and make rain and winds and hit stuff..." Anna said as Elsa stared blankly at her, Rapunzel sniggering quietly in the background. "Or you know...when a hydrokinetic sorcerer gets angry at somewhere and makes a hurricane."

"How your tutor even passed you...I shall never know." Elsa muttered.

"Girls! What are you doing out here?" The Coronian captain, Jetson asked. "Its dangerous. They said to expect rains soon enough."

"Who said?" Elsa asked.

"CAWA did."

"Wait, is there a weather station nearby?" Elsa asked, her face lighting up as Jetson nodded and pointed to a complex on a nearby hill overlooking the ocean. "I've always wanted to see what a weather station looks like. Maybe I can get more knowledge on how hurricanes form."

"Dork!"

"ANNA!"

At the weather station...despite Anna's protesting...

"Hi." Elsa said as she, her sister and Rapunzel entered the station. No one in the weather center even so much as batted an eye as they entered and looked around. It was only when Anna did her act of clumsiness and knocked over a barometer that one of the lead advisers noticed them.

"Aah...how may I help you three?" The adviser asked.

"Hi...I'm queen Elsa."

"And I'm her sister Anna. My sister is a bit of a dork so please bear with her." Anna laughed as Elsa pushed her aside with a scowl leaving Rapunzel staring at the two of them in amusement.

"Aah...okay. I'm Calvin. I'm the lead meteorologist of this facility." He replied.

"You're a what?" Anna said blankly as her sister rolled her eyes.

"Its a pleasure to meet you Calvin." Elsa said as she looked around. "So I'm guessing you're probably monitoring hurricane Maurice at the moment?"

"That is correct your majesty." Calvin replied.

"Please...just call me Elsa." Elsa said as she followed the meteorologist towards a table filled with maps and papers. Anna and Rapunzel followed as well.

"Are these the tracking maps?" Elsa asked as she looked around at them.

"Yes Elsa. This is the current projected path that the cyclone will take within the next 36 hours." Calvin replied. Anna just continued to stare blankly at the two of them as if they were conversing in a foreign language...which they might have been.

"Still functioning?" Rapunzel asked Anna with a laugh.

"My brain hurts." Anna replied as she looked at the maps on the table filled with symbols and words she totally didn't understand.

"Anna? Do you know what this is?" Elsa asked excitedly as she held up a map that looked even more complex than the map to a place called Reimarch's cove that she found in the library once.

"Do you know what it is?" Anna asked.

"Yes." Elsa replied.

"Then I don't..." Anna said as Rapunzel tried desperately to hold her laughter in. Elsa let out a small sigh as she turned back to the meteorologist leaving Anna standing behind her, slightly stumped at the map that Elsa had shown her. Anna picked up one of the papers on the desk and looked at it.

"What does it say?" Rapunzel asked. Anna looked at the paper. It said...

Hurricane AE07H (Maurice) located approximately 476 nm West-southwest of Matinda, Corona, has tracked east-southeast at approximately 18 knots over the past six hours. Meteorological report vessels and island observatories have reported an increased organization of the eye wall with a small increase in cold cloud tops and a decrease in cirrus formations within the eye. Due to warm currents and organization improvements within the northwest quadrant of the storm, the current intensity has been increased to approximately 180 knots with gusts recording up to 210 knots, especially in the northwest quadrant where enhanced thunderstorm activity has been reported. Lower level analysis shows a favorable environment characterized by vigorous equatorial outflow and low vertical wind shear (05 to 10 knots). AE07H is steadily tracking East-northeast along the northern periphery of the subtropical ridge (str) southwest of the system. Possible interaction with a low pressure trough could accelerate the storm and decrease its arrival time to 24 taus as well as enhance thunderstorm activity and circulation within the 450 nm diameter of the cyclonic system, increasing its intensity and wind field radius.

AE07H is expected to intensify until landfill in 36 taus, approximately 3 nm North of Perlin village, Corona at approximately 0700 on Friday with estimated sustained winds of 190 knots and gusts approximated at 220 knots. Weakening will persist after landfall due to the frictional effects of land interaction as well as increased high level, vertical wind shear (25 knots) until the complete dissipation of the system by tau 52 at around the region of the Pendrant Peninsula. Due to increased intensity and the decrease of ships and information, overall forecast confidence still remains low.

"So...what does it say?" Rapunzel asked.

"Um...well...it seems to be written in some form of writing. I think I have a nose bleed." Anna said causing Rapunzel to laugh slightly. "Hey Elsa? You speak dork right? What does this say?"

Elsa growled in response as she snatched the paper from her sisters hands and placed it on the table before resuming her conversation with Calvin.

"Grouch..." Anna grumbled as she and Rapunzel turned away and started looking at the numerous instruments on the table. She recognized the thermometer and the sextant but the others, she had no idea what they were.

"May I help you?" One of the guys asked as he approached the two princesses.

"Um...yeah...what this thingamajig?" Anna asked as she pointed to something that looked similar to something she knocked over earlier on.

"That's a barometer. It measures pressure." The guy answered.

"Oof...that would max out pretty quickly in our council room." Anna laughed.

"Wrong type of pressure your highness." The guy chuckled.

"Ooh...what's this thing?" Anna asked as she pointed up a small fabric thingy.

"That's a windsock. We use it to measure wind." The guy said as Anna looked over it. She looked to see what other instruments there were but her attention was caught by a group of people in the corner of the weather center.

"What are they doing?" Anna asked as she pointed to a group of people who were busy checking some gear, armor and various instrumentations while chuckling among each to her and looking over maps. "They seem happy.".

"Yeah...well there are two types of meteorologists. You've got the insiders and the outsiders. The insiders are them. Theu gather information from various sources and they forward this information to the king or the public. They're the ones who make the maps and charts and report the weather." The guy said.

"Aah...so in other words...the bring ones...kinda like my sister." Anna said causing the guy to laugh.

"Exactly."

"Wait...you aren't affected by my comment?" Anna asked as she expected the guy to scowl or something.

"Nope...I'm an outsider." The guy said. "I'm the more...how can I say...insane person. Well that's how they call us anyway. The outsiders job is to record the weather events...from within them."

"What do you mean within them?" Anna asked with a quirked brow.

"Well, take this hurricane Maurice for example. Our job will be to stand outside, in the middle of the storm taking readings...or assessing what the storm will do to the kingdom...in other words. We're the people who stand outside and face mother nature's fury while all the other cowards stay inside. Is it dangerous? Yes! Do we love to do it? Yes! Why? I have no bloody idea why...but there is no better feeling than standing outside with 150 mile per hours winds and trees flying all over the place, laughing about random stuff while mother nature is raining hell down on you. The adrenaline rush you get from it is...well...the only way to experience it is to...experience it yourself." The guy said.

"Is this guy saying how his job is awesome?" Another guy asked as he approached them. "Let me tell you something...they are crazy! Absolutely crazy!"

"This guy is boring. He just stands making maps and stuff. We...the real meteorologist, we brave nature's wrath for the good of science." The guy said.

"Yeah...and tell me what type of adrenaline rush you get when a half ton piece of shrapnel redecorates your face. We'll see if you enjoy it then."

"Don't mind him...he's insanely boring and non social."

"Sounds like someone I know." Anna laughed as she peeked at her sister who was still busy looking over some charts as if they were some kind of jewel. Anna rolled her eyes as she looked at the group who were preparing stuff.

"Is it safe?" Anna asked the guy.

"No...but that's what makes it interesting. But no one has died..."

"Yet!" The other guy added.

"Hey...just because we do dangerous stuff doesn't mean were morons. Go make a map or something dork!" The guy said causing Anna and Rapunzel to laugh.

"So...you're all meteorologists?" Anna asked.

"Nope. Some are volunteers. Everyday civilians who just want to get in on it because they love doing insane stunts."

"Wait...so anyone can join?" Anna asked, her eyes lighting up in interest.

"Yep...anyone...well, if you'll all excuse me, I've got to get some stuff ready." The guy said as he walked away. "Oh, and by the way, I'm Faris."

"I'm Anna." Anna said as the guy nodded and walked away.

"Anna...I know that look anywhere. Please don't do it." Rapunzel said as she looked at her cousin.

"Do what?" Anna asked with a smirk.

"Elsa will kill you if she finds out." Rapunzel said.

"Relax...I've down crazy things before. I've climbed mountains, braved snowstorms, jumped off roofs, had my heart frozen. This will be a walk in the park." Anna laughed. Rapunzel didn't laugh since she was quite concerned and she knew exactly how Elsa would ready to it.

"Anna...I know you love doing crazy stuff...but think twice about this one. This is a very dangerous activity." Rapunzel warned.

"No one has died...you heard him."

"No one has died...in this kingdom. But there have been deaths in other kingdoms. Anna, have you ever seen what 180 mile per hour winds can do to people?"

"Have you?" Anna asked with a raised brow.

"No. But I have heard what they can do. You see the small plank of wood there? Its a meter long and barely four centimeters wide right?" Rapunzel asked.

"Yeah...so..."

"Well, that piece of wood, traveling at 180 miles per hour...can go straight through a brick wall. That's not a joke. There have been reports of people that have been decapitated by thin prices of plywood. For goodness sakes, even a orange at that speed can do as much damage as a bat hitting you at maximum strength. People have been killed by flying watermelons."

If anything, that last statement caused Anna to burst into laughter which was the opposite of how Rapunzel thought she would react.

"Anna! This is no joke! As your cousin I can't stop you...but please be careful with what you do! You may think this is amazing now...but you won't think the same thing when you're standing in the heat of this storm."

"Jeez Rapunzel. I didn't think you were like Elsa that much. Relax punzie... I'll be fine." Anna said as she walked over to Faris.

"Faris?"

"What's up Anna?" He asked.

"I want to volunteer." Anna said plainly.

"Whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa!" Faris said as he stood up. "Yeah...when I was telling you that anyone could join...I didn't mean that we wanted you to join. Anna this is dangerous."

"I've done crazy things before." Anna laughed.

"No offense your highness...but your stature isn't exactly on your side here." One of the storm chasers said as he looked at the princess. "You'll be blown around like a stick unless you're tethered to us."

"Look Anna...this is dangerous. Even the slightest deviance from one of our instructions could prove fatal. I'm not sure you can handle that." Faris said truthfully.

"Seriously? Does everyone in corona sound like my sister?" Anna muttered.

"Please think about this twice before you decide..."

"Done! I want to join!" Anna said. Faris looked at his teammates before sighing and nodding in submission.

"Fine...but you'll have to sign this before we allow you to join." Faris said as he handed Anna a small piece of paper.

"What's this?" Anna asked.

"Its a waiver. It says that if you get injured or die, you and you alone shall take full responsibility and no one else, not CAWA, nor the council, shall be blamed for any situations that shall arise. Essentially, of you die, its your fault and no one else's." One of the colleagues explained.

"Done!" Anna equaled gleefully as she handed the paper back to them. "Yay...so when do we start?"

"In around 32 hours...four hours before the eye makes landfall in corona!" Faris said. "Now listen up princess, you have to follow our instructions as carefully as possible...please...four yours and our safety. Technically, we've never had a princess join our group before, though we have had other women and the king joined us once. I believe the queen kicked his ass when she found out though..."

Anna and several others laughed for a second before they were all interrupted by a meteorologist kicking the door open and rushing in.

"Albert? What's wrong?" Calvin asked.

"Ships have repeated that hurricane Maurice has sped up and shall now make landfall in approximately 24 hours instead of the previously predicted 36 hours.

"Hell yeah!" One to the storm chasers screamed. "Less time to wait!"

"Hey...have you lot even done something like this in this type of storm before?" One of the meteorologists asked.

"There's a first time for everything!" The storm chasers laughed.

"You're all crazy!"

"We love crazy!" Faris yelled back. Anna thanked Faris before running back to Rapunzel and squealing.

"You...are...a bigger moron than I ever thought." Rapunzel said with a giggle, though inside she was deeply concerned and frightened for her cousin's safety. "Did they ask you to sign the waiver?"

"Yep!"

"Not this time..." Rapunzel muttered as she waltzed over to the storm chasers.

"Your highness?" Faris asked with a smile as Rapunzel walked up to them.

"Do you have the waiver for princess Anna?" She asked. Faris nodded and handed Rapunzel the waiver. Rapunzel took one look at it and tore it in half, to the shock of the storm chasers and Anna.

"Listen up! My cousin will be joining you, god knows why, and I am holding you personally responsible for whatever happens to her! She isn't signing no waiver because you lot are going to protect her and look after her...do you understand?" Rapunzel asked with a fierce glare. The storm chasers looked at each other in shock before nodding in response.

"If anything happens to her...if I see so much as a scratch...none of you better sleep again because it will be me...not the king nor the queen...me! That you have to deal with! Do I make my self clear?"

"Yes your highness!" The storm chasers said together.

"Good...no pressure..." Rapunzel said with a giggle as she walked back to a gaping Anna.

"Rapunzel...you didn't..."

"Hey! I can't let my favorite cousin get hurt...can I?"

"I'm your favorite?" Anna squeals with a giggle as the two of them laughed.

"Just don't tell your sister...because she can get kind of boring..." Rapunzel whispered as the two of them giggled silently, giggling even more when they saw how enthusiastic Elsa was over some maps.

"Hey Elsa? Drooling yet?" Anna asked as she approached her sister.

"Really?" Elsa asked as she continued to look over the various instruments and papers."So...did you learn anything here sister?"

"Well...I think I'm about to." Anna giggled.

"The hard way." Rapunzel added. "So...are you all ready now?"

"Yeah...we should probably go now. Mama and papa are probably getting worried." Elsa said as she picked up a small book and stuffed it in her pocket. "Calvin gave it to me. Its a book about hurricanes."

"Another book? You have more books that the Arendellian public library." Anna laughed as Elsa playfully pushed her.

"Well, let's go now. We've all got a big day tomorrow." Rapunzel said. Then, under her breath said, "Especially Anna..."

7 am the next day...11 hours before landfall...

"Skies are starting to get cloudy out there now..." Anna said.

"Anna? What...you're awake?" Elsa asked sleepily as she rubbed her eyes and stared at her sister. "This is surprising."

"Let's go outside..." Anna said as she ran over to her trunk and pulled out a dress. Elsa yawned as she crawled out of bed and shuffled towards her own trunk sleepily.

Outside...

"Don't you think you should tell your sister and parents...you know...for safety reasons." Rapunzel asked Anna as they stood by the castle gates and watched Elsa emerge a few seconds later.

"Any thing change much?" Elsa asked as she peered through the gates into town. To her surprise, despite everything being boarded up, there were many people within the town going around doing their daily business as if the incoming storm was nothing to them. "Shouldn't they be panicking or taking refuge or something."

"Its business as normal until the winds and rain actually start disrupting stuff or the guards kick them their homes. Until then, it'll be like any other day." Rapunzel said.

"Wanna get a cake or something?" Anna asked. Elsa and Rapunzel looked at each other before nodding in response and disappearing into the town.

"Where are those three going?" Idun asked as she and her sister looked at the or daughters disappear into the town.

"Probably going to get a cake or something...want to go with them as well?" Primrose asked to which Idun nodded.

Cafe Le Frone...

"Jeez Anna. What's with all the cake?" Elsa asked with a laugh as she watched her sister devour half a cake.

"Gom do veep vup moar enrfy..."

"Er...what?"

"I said..." Anna swallowed her mouthful before continuing, "I've got to keep up my energy."

"Why? All well be doing is sitting in the castle all day." Elsa said. Rapunzel looked at Anna with a raised brow and a face that said, 'you haven't told her'

"What...am I missing something here?" Elsa asked, her expression changing to one of curiosity.

"Anna has something to say..." Rapunzel said.

"No I don't!" Anna retorted.

"Yes you do! Tell your sister or I will!" Rapunzel stated.

"Anna?" Elsa asked wearily.

"Well...um...I...might have..."

"There you two are!" Primrose called out as she and Idun walked up to them and sat at some empty seats.

"Mama? It bought you were in the castle!" Elsa said.

"Not till the storm hits." Idun said. "Anna...didn't I tell you to cut down on the sweets a bit?"

"How about Elsa?" Anna complained.

"I've never eaten a whole cake before!" Elsa defended.

"It's half a cake...and I'm not fat!" Anna scowled as she stuffed another forkful into her mouth.

"So...what was this thing that you wanted to tell me?" Elsa asked her sister.

"I'll tell you later..." Anna whispered back.

6 hours before landfall...

"Wow...its hard to believe that its only 11 in the morning." Agdar said as he stared out over corona. A light drizzle was falling over the kingdom and the sky was completely shrouded by clouds. The winds were beginning to pick up as well as a slight breeze could be felt. The ocean was also becoming slightly rougher with the waves almost doubling in height in the last 30 minutes.

"Well, I guess all we can do now is wait for the storm to arrive and ride it out." Primrose said as she sat down on a couch and opened a book. Anna looked carefully at Ber entire family who was engrossed in something before sneaking out of the back door and proceeding downstairs.

"Going somewhere?" Rapunzel asked as Anna ran into her at the base of the stairs.

"You know where..."

"Are you sure you want to do this...I won't stop you...but...please think carefully." Rapunzel begged.

"Don't worry...I promise I won't do anything stupid or reckless." Anna chuckled as Rapunzel pulled her into a hug.

"Take care and please do be careful. I know that you'll be surround by professionals...and I also know that you love doing crazy things like this...but still...things can go wrong." Rapunzel said.

"Don't worry cousin. I'll be fine." Anna said as she fave a little wave to her cousin and ran off. Rapunzel sighed as she walked up the stairs, only to be greeted by a curious Elsa at the top.

"Where's Anna going?" Elsa asked.

"Wait...you mean she hasn't told you?"

"No..."

"Anna! Oh god...well...you might as well know..."

"Know what?" Elsa asked worriedly.

5 hours before landfall at the weather station...

"We almost thought you weren't going to come!" Faris said as Anna walked into the station, slightly drenched. Half way there, it had started to pur with rain and the winds had started to pick up as well. By the time she got to the station, the rain was torrential and several of the routes to and from were starting to flood.

"There is no way I would ever miss this type of thing!" Anna stated as she grgrabbed a raincoat nearby.

"Right...first things first. You're going to need to wear this weights belt." Faris said as he handed Anna a belt that weighed at least eight pounds.

"What's this for?"

"That so to stop you from becoming a missile projectile, though whether it'll be effective in this type of winds, we don't know." Faris answered. "You have to attach that to your waist. Now princess, as an amateur, I have to warn you of certain rules. When we to do something...you do it. We've had experience with this before so we know how to react. If we tell you to follow us...you follow us. If we tell you to go there...you go there? Understood?"

"Yes!" Anna said as she finished securing the weighted belt and put in her raincoat.

"Right...you'll have to put on this harness as well. This will be tethered to our harnesses with a rope. That way, we can ensure no one gets separated and no one gets blown away. Do not remove the tether no matter what unless we say so...got it?" Faris asked. Anna nodded in response. "Finally, there will be winds...there will be rains. And a lot of them. We are taking about winds in excess of 200 knots with gusts up to 240 knots. At that speed, something as small as a pin can do as much damage as a rifle round. Stuff like metal roofing and broken scraps of wood...or any form of shrapnel simply can be potentially deadly. Anything weighing half a pound or more hitting your chest or head at that speed will kill you. No exceptions. Rapunzel will have my head if something happens to you so make sure you listen carefully and do as you're told. Understood?"

"Yes!" Anna squealed excitedly as a chaser put on the harness on her. She winced slightly as they tightened it harder.

"Alright then. Are you ready Anna?" Faris asked.

"Yes! I was born ready...let's do it!" Anna squealed enthusiastically.

"Now remember everyone! This is the first hurricane of this strength to hit corona...actually, this is the strongest hurricane to ever make landfall in recorded history and I want to be the one to ensure that we record it. We'll be the ones to record this storm...the strongest known storm ever known." Faris said as she looked outside. The wind was starting to pick up as the skies started to darken significantly and the rain getting even more torrential.

"Right! Let's get going!" Faris said as the six of them marched towards the door. Faris reached for the door to open it but gasped when it opened beneath his hands BH someone outside. The door swung open to reveal a completely drenched Elsa standing there, glaring at Anna upon catching sight of her.

"Elsa! What are you doing here?" Anna asked.

"I would ask you the same question!" Elsa growled.

"Well...you we...um..." Anna laughed as she tried to think of an excuse.

"Talk...here...now..." Elsa said as she pointed to a small room at the side of the weather center. Anna followed her sister into there with an uneasy expression on her fave as the other five storm chasers watched them. They could hear them talking from behind the door but they couldn't make out what they were saying. It took another five more minutes before the two sisters appeared again, Anna looking slightly disgruntled along with Elsa.

"Well Anna? What's going on?" Faris asked.

"I can come with you..." Anna said. Faris laughed in happiness. "But she has to come with us...unfortunately."

"Just to make sure you don't do anything stupid Anna." Elsa said.

"Yeah...well...I'm afraid that you will have to follow our instructions as well. You see...knowledge from books is good and all, but books rarely ever kill you with pieces of shrapnel heading at 200 miles per hour that can decapitate you!" Faris said as Elsa gulped slightly. "And apart from that, you aren't exactly the heaviest so don't be surprised if the winds toss you around like a piece to paper. You see, numerous people have died in storm chasing before and it is a very dangerous..."

"Faris!" Anna snapped. "Stop scaring my sister!"

Anna cuddled a whispering Elsa as one of the chasers approached with a raincoat, weight belt and a harness. Anna grabbed them and secured them all on her sister herself before securing Elsa's harness to hers.

"I'm going to regret this decision!" Elsa moaned as Faris reopened the door for them to he greeted by torrential rainfall and high winds.

"Let's go!"

4 hours till landfall...Wind speed: 53 knots...

"So...are these winds deadly?" Elsa asked as they stood near a large tree on then outskirts of corona. The skies were dark now and the rain was, shockingly, beginning to subside only to be replaced with higher winds.

"Nope...we're nowhere near to the windowless in the eye wall yet since landfall is still at least four hours away." Faris answered. The nine of them watched as the gusts of wind blew the slaves of the trees around. They looked towards the shoreline and saw waves in excess of fifteen feet as the storm increased the height of the storm surges.

"Are...are you sure it's safe to be out here?" Elsa asked with a whimper.

"Look Elsa. We know what is safe and what isn't...if we determine its not safe...we'll tell. And at the moment...it's safe. For now."

3 hours till landfall...Wind speed: 80 knots...

"We should probably get towards a building or something. These winds are getting pretty strong." One of the chasers suggested to Faris as they ran across the Coronian entrance bridge. They could see several branches that had broken off trees were laying on the ground as well as some roofing materials and other various pieces of shrapnel. The nine of them rushed as fast as possible towards a unoccupied building near the edge of the kingdom. They took refuge near the door under a small overhanging roof as a gust of wind blew some potted plants off the side of the building. Elsa screamed as a potted plant fell within several feet of her.

"You alright?" Anna asked as she placed a hand on her sister's shoulder.

"I should have just said no..." Elsa muttered as Anna gripped her tightly. "Why would you even do high as crazy as this?"

"Because I love crazy...and I am a nature person." Anna laughed.

"I didn't think this is what you meant by nature." Elsa squealed as a massive gust of wind tore down a small roof nearby.

2 hours till landfall...Wind speed: 120 knots...

By this time, the winds were into the extremes. Anything that wasn't tied down was either blown away or had turned into a missile projectile. Several of the weak structures were already destroyed and numerous structures were damaged already. Elsa was sitting into hr corner shaking slightly as Anna sat next to Ber and patted her on the head softly. The other storm chasers were standing near the doors and windows writing down their observations as then winds continued to grow stronger and more structures began to get damaged.

"Is this the strongest winds yet?" Elsa asked, slightly frightened.

"I'm afraid not. When the eyewall hits this storm is going to cause a lot more damage." Faris said. "But don't worry...this structure will hold."

Though truthfully he was actually uncertain.

1 hour till landfall...Wind speed: 145 knots...

"Freaking hell!" Faris screamed as he pouted to something in the distance. Elsa and Anna stood up and slowly approached the window. They both gasped in shock and horror as they looked at the sight in front of them. The wooden house across the streets was being torn down right before their eyes. They watched as the roof peeled off and flew across the street before slamming into another structure across the street and tearing the entire south wall down.

"Faris...are you certain this structure will hold?" One of the chasers asked. The winds were so strong and in combination with the rains, made it nearly impossible to see past no more than twenty feet.

"We should probably move to a stronger structure. That one there is made of brick!" A chaser screamed as he pointed to a structure that was quarter of a mile down the road.

"Are you insane? There is now way in heck we'll make it there!" Faris said.

"Look! If we stay here longer, then we could possibly be the first victims of storm chasing in corona, and I do not want to be a statistic! Hell no! We go now!" The storm chaser yelled.

"Give it a minute...the rains are too dense. We can't see shit!" Another storm chaser said.

Landfall...Wind speed: 200 knots...

"This is insane!" The chaser screamed as he watched several trees get uprooted and thrown across the ground. They watched in horror as the winds from the storm tore apart roofs, walls and numerous other building parts and turned them all into shrapnel. They all looked up in horror as a crawling noise followed by the sound of wood snapping echoed within the structure.

"This isn't going to hold! We have to go now!" A chaser screamed as he pointed to the solid concrete structure quarter of a mile down the road. "If we stick together, we can make it!"

"Are you mad?!" Faris screamed. "Everything out there is essentially a bloody missile projectile. Even the smallest plank of wood can cause as much damage as a freaking rifle round!"

"This building is going to get torn to shreds if we don't flee now!"

Faris looked over to Elsa and Anna who were huddling close to each other as the storm raged on.

"Elsa! Anna stay on the middle of us. Quickly! Attach the lines to our harnesses now!" Faris said. The storm chasers quickly attached all of the lines to each of their harnesses so that they were securely attached.

"Ready! Now!" Faris screamed as he ran across the road. The other storm chasers as well as Elsa and Anna followed him across the street as they tried to stand up straight and brave the heavy rains and destructive winds. They could see numerous pieces of shrapnel flying through the air and smashing into structures across the kingdom.

"Quickly!" Faris yelled as he used the building as support so that they wouldn't get blown away. They slowly moved down then street towards the concrete structure at the other end of the road as several pieces of wood narrowly missed them.

"Oh god...LOOK OUT!" One of the storm chasers screamed. Elsa looked to her left. One second she saw a plank of wood...the next...nothing.

"ELSA!" Anna screamed as she watched her sister collapse to the ground after having been impacted don't he head with a plank of wood. Several for he storm chasers gasped as they ran over to the queens limp form, only to be blown over by the torrential winds. Anna slowly moved backwards as but fell forward when a sudden yank on her rope caused her to slip.

"Shit!" Faris screamed. The rope tethering him to the rest had been severed by a razor sharp piece of metal that had sliced through it. Anna carefully crawled over to her sister and dragged her body over to the safety off a corner as the winds started to howl even louder and become stronger.

"STAY THERE!" Faris screamed. "ALL OF YOU STAY DOWN! THE EYE WILL PASS BY ANY MINUTE!"

Anna sat on the ground, a small piece to wood shielding her front he projectiles flying in the winds as she clutched her sisters form tightly. Anna closed her eyes and prayed for the storm to end as she felt something brush against her shoulder. She looked up and saw one for eh storm chasers crouching next to her.

"When they eye hits! Run! Just run towards any place that is safe and strong! Understand!" The chaser said. Anna nodded in response as she held her the top half of her sister while the chaser held her by the legs.

"Faris! When the eye...LOOK OUT! FARIS!" The chaser screamed. Anna heard screams...followed by the distinct sound of metal hitting wood and the screaming of several more people. The winds suddenly doubled in strength as it tore down several structures like they were made of paper. Anna squinted as she watched one of the ships in the port capsize and crash into the pier. Then...as suddenly as it started...the winds stopped and everything fell quiet. Anna listened as the howling winds were replaced by a gentle breeze.

The eye...

"FARIS!"

Anna looked up to see several chasers running towards where Faris was last standing.

"Oh shit...no...no...no...no...NO!" One of the chasers screamed. Anna left her sister against the wall as she stood up and peered around. What she saw caused her to scream in horror. Faris was sitting up against the wall weakly, his eyes barely open as he stared at his men. There was a four foot long piece of solid metal, embedded straight in his stomach, blood staining his coat and the ground. Anna ran over in shock as Faris took a shudder breath and peered at them.

"Get a doctor!" A chaser yelled as another two ran off into eh direction of the local physicians.

"Anna..." Faris said weakly. "Go...get your...sister...back to the castle...now. This eye...won't last for...long. All of you...go now..."

"No! We're not leaving you!" The chaser said.

"God damn it...go..." Faris said. He looked one more time at Anna before his eyes closed for good.

"NO!" The storm chaser cried as he clutched the body of his dead friend. Anna stared both in tears and horror at the scene that had just unfolded in front of her.

"We have to go now!" A chaser yelled. He was carrying Elsa in his arms as he gestured to the castle. "Come on!"

Anna looked one last time at Faris before following the chaser back to the castle. Anna could see the other edge of the eye wall rapidly approaching as they ran as fast as possible back to the castle.

"Come on!" The chaser yelled as they approached the castle gates. Unfortunately, there were no guards because they had all taken cover withing the castle or the barracks.

"HEY! WE NEED HELP!" The chaser screamed out across the courtyard. Anna looked to her side and could see the sea becoming dark again as the eyewall was less than a minute away. "GOD DAMN IT! SOMEONE HELP US!"

Anna looked up to see two guard running as fast as possible down towards the gate. They quickly ripped the small door open allowing the chaser and Anna to enter. They ran as fast as possible towards the for where Agdar and Idun were standing. Upon seeing their daughters, Agdar ran down towards them and helped them up to the door. They could feel the wind picking up rapidly as they nearest the door. As soon as they approached the door, the winds surged from a breeze to full strength as the howling began and the torrential rain started again. They struggled to close the door as the work forced it open, but they eventually managed to force it close.

"Elsa!" Idun screamed as she and Anna ran over to Elsa's unconscious form that the chaser laid on the couch in the common room.

"Elsa!" Anna screamed as she slightly shook her shoulder. "Elsa..."

6 hours later...

"Ugh...what happened..." Elsa muttered as she sat up carefully. She winced as she clutched a small lump on her head. Elsa screamed as something g suddenly wrapped tightly around her waist, hut stopped when she realized that it was only had sister. "Anna? What ..where am I?"

"In the castle..." A teary eyed Anna replied.

"What happened?"

"You were hit on the head by a price of wood." Anna said.

"A piece of wood did this to me?" Elsa asked as she felt the lump on her head. She winced slightly as she felt a slight surge of pain when she poked the lump.

"Are you alright now?" Anna asked. Elsa nodded slightly as he looked at her sister and immediately realized that something was wrong.

"What's wrong?" Elsa asked.

"Faris is dead." Anna said as Elsa gaped in shock. "A piece of metal impaled him...he died within seconds."

"My god..." Elsa muttered in shock. Hurricanes were truly deadly. Elsa looked around and saw that she was in one of the guest rooms. She looked out of the window and saw some light rain falling outside. "How long have I been out?"

"Six hours." Anna said as she laid down next to her sister

"Is...is corona alright?" Elsa asked. Anna looked at the ground for a split second before looking at her sister.

"Corona is...catastrophically damaged." Anna said. "Nearly all wooden building are lying in ruins and even the brick structures are heavily damaged. The entire forest has literally been leveled."

"You're joking..." Elsa said in horror. Anna shook her head as she helped her sister off the bed. The two of them walked over to the window and peered out. The devastation that greeted Elsa's eyes was beyond anything she had ever seen before. The kingdom was totaled. Wreckage and rubble lie all over the kingdom, trees were uprooted. Even cement structures were hehewciky damaged. Elsa looked over to the structure that they had taken refuge in and was horrified to see it was nothing but a pile of mangled metal and bricks. If they had stayed in there for any longer, non of them could have survived.

"Elsa! Are you alright?" Idun asked as she ran in and hugged Elsa, Agdar following right behind her. "What were you two thinking about going in a storm like this?!"

"Mama..." Anna interrupted. "It was my..."

"Both our faults." Elsa completed. "We wanted to see what it would be like to see a storm firsthand, despite it being dangerous. Were sorry."

"You two could have died out there..." Agdar said. "Did you know that over a hundred people died already in this storm?"

"We know papa. Were sorry." Anna said.

"I'm just glad you two are alright." Agdar sighed. "How you managed to get Elsa to go along with you though is beyond me..."

"I couldn't stop Anna from doing what she wants...but I couldn't leave her to get hurt either so the only way was for me to join her...no matter how dangerous and stupid it was." Elsa said as she aimed the last part at her sister.

"Don't worry...I learned my lesson...if its got winds faster than 150 knots...never mind. But anything less..." Anna said.

"We don't get hurricanes in Arendelle...but if we did, there is no way well ever allow you two out ever again..." Idun said.

"Your majesties?" A guard called out as he entered the room.

"Yes?" Elsa asked.

"I've been told to inform you of some bad news..."

"What's that?" Elsa asked.

"Your ship was destroyed in the storm...along with the entire port. I'm afraid that the soonest anyone will be able to leave will be in about by so weeks time!"

"What?!" Agdar asked. "Great! Just great! Bien could this get any worse?"

"Well...um...CAWA has reported that...there is a tropical storm heading to Arendelle that will make landfall there in around three days."

"Maybe another two weeks in corona isn't so bad..."

"What's left of corona...if anything..."


I know there are a few discrepancies with facts, especially the weather reporting in that era since I'm unsure weather they had that knowledge on weather formations back then. But, those discrepancies were needed otherwise this one shot couldn't be possible.

You might be asking where the heck I got this prompt from...well...ingot this prompt from my own actions in that hurricane the other day. I seriously pulled an Anna (well not that crazy) and stood outside, in the eye of the storm, taking videos. I know it seems crazy...but I love crazy. Shit! I'm starting to sound like Anna!

And...I'm guessing that several of you were staring at the weather report in italics within this one shot going like "what the heck does this mean?". Well, that was my initial reaction when I first read a weather report online as well. Amazingly, the weather report that Anna read above was custom made by me. I didn't copy and paste. I completely made it myself with my own wind speeds, tracks, kingdom names and forecasts. So...I created a fictional hurricane report for this story. That took thirty minutes on its own accord. And technically, it should make some sense and actually be realistic to some extent I comparison to real hurricane reports.

Readerz99: I will do your prompt as well so don't worry.

WarThunder: I'm afraid not. The place I was in didn't have much damage so all i got was videos of wind and rain.

Evil laugh: great idea. I might do it...

Well, its time for me to rest and take my mind of doing dangerous stunts and focus on less insane stuff like writing FanFiction during my college lectures...

Prompts? Anymore prompts? I've got enough for at least another 4-6 stories but I would always love to hear more...

I have also created the community for family reunion fics. It is called "A royal reunion" and currently has six stories. If youre into family reunion fics, then do check it out. And if you know of any reunion fics that are not mentioned there, then please inform me. Thank you.
