Chapter 10 Resurrection.
Anna had always believed in Adonai, but she wondered where is she now, she couldn't tell everything was so dark but she saw a door and walking towards it she took a deep breath ready for what lies beyond.
She opened the door and saw a very bright light, she saw a man clothed in white and sitting on a throne, she somehow knew who He was but she was unsure.
"Who are you? What am I doing here?"
"I am Adonai, I created everyone and everything!"
Anna immediately fell on her knees, she knew she was dead and she feared for her life, what He might to do to her.
"I am so sorry for what I have done, the way I treated everyone around me... I... I... Dont deserve to be here... "
"Dont be afraid! I will not harm you! I have seen it all before you did anything, I knew you everything is lay here before me, you can't surprised me for I already know it all!"
"Are you going to punished.. Me? "
"No! I have much greater plans for you! You have a much bigger role to play in the grand scheme of things, I am sending you home but I will leave you a gift!"
"But Adonai" rising to her feet, "I don't belong back in Arendelle, I belong here with you. "
"That time has not yet come, your role is bigger than you think, everything will changed when you get back. "
Kristoff looked at his wife's body, if only he could have done something to stop her all of this wouldn't have happened, they still be together and having children but it was too late now.
"Anna I just want you know that, we had fun times together, if only we had more time I promised to spend much more time with you and we can be together."
Kristoff had plans to make Anna part of his business but he wasn't sure if she will fit in, but now he realized his mistake and somehow regret not telling her soon.
It was already the second day and it was nearly time for the ceremony to begin. The priest was ready to conduct the ceremony. However it was pushed to a much later time.
The advisors and councilors also paid their respects too, in a way they like Anna too for she will cheered them up with a smile or with a joke.
Families came to pay their respects, they were always inspired by her enthusiastism children love playing with Anna, to them it she was the best always knowing how to have fun.
It was time for the ceremony to begin. Elsa step forward to give a speech.
"Ladies and gentleman, as you know my sister was a inspiration to me she was the best sister I ever had and I love her eternally! Dearest Anna you brought so much joy to my life and gave me hope when I have lost hope in myself. You risked your life for me, saving me from the claws of death. Anna you didnt gave up on me and I wished you were here with me now! Goodbye Anna! I will forever missed and you will never be forgotten.
Elsa made her way to her sister's body, and placed a ice rose in between her sister's fingers. "Anna... This is goodbye... I want you to know I forgive you for everything you have done. "
"Now Anna do you see how much your sister loves you? "
"I... I... Never... Knew after what I have done to her." Anna replied.
Elsa looked at Anna one last time and took a seat in her throne. She looked at Anakin for comfort.
Anakin smiled, soon it will be his turn but for now it was Kristoff turn.
Kristoff gave his speech, "Anna was in a way more than just a fun loving woman, she was a friend and a wife to me! The best I can ask for we may have our differences but we still agreed on most things. I love her for good or for bad.
"Dearest Anna you have given me the best years of your life and I never regret marrying you and calling you as my wife! I wished we had more time together but I know I will see you soon!"
Kristoff made his way to Anna's body, he placed a red rose next to Elsa's icy rose. "Goodbye Dear! I will always love you forever!"
Anakin can sense the growing sorrow in the growing sorrow in the throneroom. But the source of the sorrow was not from the crowd, but it came from Elsa, she was trying her best to control her emotions.
It was Rapunzel's turn to deliver her speech. "Anna was like a best friend to me, we had some fun advantures together, we did silly things which is still personal between us, Anna was more than just a inspiration, nobody will ever be able to replace her."
"Dear Anna I always thought of you as my closest friend, we stuck together through thick and thin and we always came out on top. Wished you were still here with us.
Rapunzel made her way to Anna's body. She placed a pink rose in Anna's fingers, "in another lifetime my best friend!"
"Elsa its amazing how many people Anna has inspired, more than she knew, I just hope whenever she is now that she's happy! "
Elsa turn to Anakin and smile, "Anakin thats the nicest words I heard from you all day, Anna would have so proud to call you her friend. "
Elsa continued, "my sister always had a kind and loving heart towards everyone she met, even though she trusted people too easily sometimes, she somehow see the good in people no matter how flawed they are, thats why she made friends so easily. "
"I am still not sure why she choose me, but I am very grateful for her, she was a closest person to a friend I had, if I could bring her back I will. "
Elsa smiled, "If only there was a way, but now I think we have to just accept whats happening right now. "
It was now Belle's turn, she rosed to deliver her speech.
"In all my years of counselling I never met a fun loving, outspoken and selfless woman she was a friend to me cheering me up in my darkest days and bringing me hope when I saw was despair and hopelessness.
"Dearest Anna we always had fun together and no words can express how I missed you now, if we see each other again it will be in another lifetime however I will always remember you as a friend who brought joy to my life."
Belle made her way to Anna's body and placed a red rose on her fingers.
"All the times we had together I will treasure them in my heat, thank you for giving me so much joy!"
Elsa looked at Rapunzel notice she was sobbing, Elsa was aware of what Anna did to her but instead she still choose to honor her as a friend, which was rare most people would do the opposite.
Queen Elsa had ordered all windows to be shut and the castle gates to be closed, while maintaining the same number of staff another three or more years of mourning was inevitable, Elsa felt like a hole in her heart now that hole needed to be filled, Anakin was the only answer, even though he was no Anna but in other ways they both supported and balanced each other perfectly.
"Anakin still needs work although he has proven himself in combat, I still need him to be trained in other areas maybe its time I show him how to handle more difficult monarchs, in case he needs to rule while I am away." She thought to herself, she was proud of his achievements but felt he can do more.
The townsfolk had every reason to miss Anna, everyday they would see Anna strolling and sometimes singing with a cheerful smile, but it was no ordinary smile it was a smile of pure joy and enthusiasm, something they were going to missed forever it will take a long time to get over this fact.
"Is Anna coming back? Where is she now?" A child asked.
"My dear Anna is in a better place, I know you missed her yet its time to let her go." The parent replied.
This was one of the families Anna visited during Christmas, they were very poor and had neither food nor shelter, but Anna bought them a house, food and money, she even found a job for their parents. Now they both worked as blacksmiths to which they were eternally grateful to Anna.
"Anna is... Gone!" Another child sob.
"Its alright, she is in a better place.. One day we will.. See.. Her... Again! " the child's mother assured her barely able to hold back her tears.
This family was on the verge of bankruptcy, their business had failed and they had sold everything they own. Until Anna came along and gave them more than enough money and now they were successful merchants. Anna would visit them every Christmas and had a meal with them.
"Not you too Anna!" This teen was orphaned, her parents had died in an accident, having no place or home to live she went begging for money to buy food. One day Anna noticed her and offered her a place to stay in the castle. From then she worked as a chambermaid, she would always see Anna and they both would have some fun together.
"Now do you see how many people missed you, the truth is now in front of you!"
"I didnt know I impacted so many lives, this is just.. Amazing, I never thought my deeds would go unnoticed. "
"You have done more good than you give yourself credit for. "
"Would anybody like to say a few more words?" The priest asked.
"I would" Anakin spoke coming forward to deliver his speech.
"Anna and me were best friends, she always saw there was something more to me but more importantly she believed in me, which is not common in most people, she was always someone who will stand by you to the end, no matter what the circumstances. "
"Anna thank you for believing in me and sticking by me to the end, although our time together was short I will treasure you as my very best friend!"
Anakin returned to Queen Elsa's side and bowed his head, although not visable to the crowd but Elsa could see it, she rosed from her seat to speak.
"We will now take lunch please help yourselves to the food and enjoy it!"
She then turned to Anakin, "Are you alright Anakin? Come let's eat some food." He nodded while Elsa escorted him to their private dinning room.
They entered the room and sat down, "Is everything alright Anakin?"
"I MISSED ANNA! SHE WAS TAKEN FROM US TOO SOON! WE NEED TO FIND OUT WHO DID THIS AND~~" Anakin couldn't hold it anymore, Anna was more than a best friend to him he saw Anna as a sister.
Elsa got up from her seat and placed her hand on his shoulder. "I missed Anna the most, losing her is truly losing part of me, which I cannot get it back but we can choose to honor her memory. "
"How are we ever going to honor her Elsa?"
Looking at Anakin and placing her right hand on his right cheek, she replied "by doing what she would have wanted us to do, to work together and to be together. "
Before Anakin could say another word, Elsa placed her finger on his mouth and kissed him on his forehead also smiling at him. "You should eat Anakin we have a long day ahead of us."
Roasted chicken, vegetables, fish and chips and soup was present on the table. Elsa had ordered all meals to be quite simple for this occasion. All champagnes and wine were forbidden for the next two days till the wake was over.
Everyone else from the servants, the guards and the butlers too dearly missed Anna, everyday she would greet them while walking pass them, sometimes she even came to help them with their chores, Anna also learn how to tell jokes and she often joked with the guards.
Lunch was now over everyone was back for the final part of the ceremony, Queen Elsa made her way to make her announcement.
"We have come to the final part of the ceremony, if you would like to say your last goodbyes to my beloved sister please do so now! "
Eugene, Rapunzel, Belle and Kristoff stood up and together closed their eyes to say their last goodbyes. The crowd soon rose behind them and did the same, Elsa and Anakin walk towards Anna's body.
"Anakin would you please close the casket, its nearly time for her to be buried."
The casket was made out of gold and silver, on top on the casket was a silver cross, Elsa made sure it was made of the finest materials, Anna was precious to her life and she will remain precious even in death.
Anakin closed the casket and sealed it tight, the mourning was getting louder but he ignored it, this was it now was the time to say his last goodbyes, he knew he will never meet someone like Anna again in this life.
"Adonai I am convinced and I want to go back, they need me! "
"Its time now Anna! You will see me again soon and tell everyone about me, and I will always be with you forever! "
"Now take a deep breath and close your eyes!"
Anna was soon back in her body, the corruption was fully purged, her eyes returned to normal, her skin was brand new and the black veins had vanished. She soon realized she was trapped in the casket and running out of air.
She bang hard on the casket door making as much noise as possible. "HEY! HEY! Get me out of here! Hello! Hello! "
Elsa and Anakin heard the noise, "What the! quick Anakin get her out of there! " Anakin as fast as he can loosen all the locks and opened the casket door. Anna climbed out of the casket alive and well.
"ANNA?" She turned around to see Elsa her heart full of joy.
Elsa suddenly ran to hug her, tears running down her eyes. "How is it possible? You were, you were... "
"Dead? Oh yes I was but now thanks to Adonai I am alive and hungry too! " she burped.
"ANNA THIS IS A MIRACLE!" She turned to look at Anakin. Anna smiled at him "I am glad to see you too Anakin!"
"This clothes are really stiff, Elsa can we throw a party tonight! " Anna looked at Elsa hoping for a yes.
"Sure we can Anna!" Elsa smiled at her, she never felt so much joy in her life.
"I am pleased to announce that the wake is over! Now let the party BEGIN! " Elsa full of joy once again embraced Anna. "I am never letting you go again Anna!"
"You are choking me sister. " Anna smiled nervously.
"Hahaha thats how much I missed you Anna!" Elsa broke from her hug.
"ANNA!" Anakin hugged her tight.
Anna returned the hug with a smile, Anakin could feel something was burning his shirt and abruptly broke away from the hug.
"Your palms they are burning Anna"Anakin implied, she looked closely to see a small ember on her hands, even her eyes was burning with fire she blew the ember out and her palms returned to normal.
"Anna is back! YAY!" One child started clapping his hand and the others soon followed, the whole room was full of joy.
"WELCOME HOME PRINCESS ANNA!" They shouted still can't believe their eyes, the whole crowd went wild with applause and tears of joys.
"I do believe its time for a change of my outfit" Elsa wave her fingers and the color of her outfit change from black to her usual white and blue.
"You too Anakin!" She smiled, "his clothes changed from black to white."
"I love this clothes your Highness!" Anakin smiled back at her.
"Everyone its time to celebrate!" With a blast of snow their clothes changed from black to white, everyone was excited.
"HAIL QUEEN ELSA! LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!"
"Are you ready for this?" Anna shouted, getting ready to unleashed the surprise, she released the fireball into the air and it exploded in fireworks. While Elsa turned the courtyard into a ice skating rig.
"Anakin come and dance with me!" Elsa spoke excitedly.
"I dont dance!" Anakin was no dancer he had never dance his whole life.
Elsa grabbed him, "come Anakin I will show you how!"
Elsa slowly showed him the steps, and he learned fast. "This is my first time dancing with a queen!" He blushed.
"This is my first time dancing with a Jedi, oh I am going to treasure this moment!" Elsa smiled and also blushed.
"Your sister has powers now like you, now you two are even! " Anakin giggled.
"Which means you cannot hug her or you will be finding new clothes to wear. " Elsa laughed.
"Can you make fireproof clothes Elsa?" Anakin looked at her inquisitively.
"I will see what I can do, try not get burned". Elsa embraced him.
Anna looked around she was delighted to be back, she never thought so many people would missed her, it was a good feeling being appreciated, now with her powers she will have more fun than before. For Anna this was a new beginning.
