You were never one for violence, nor for warfare. But at this point you had no choice.

Rita has gathered your most trusted souls. The group before you consists several of your former royal guard members, able-minded villagers, and those loyal to your line of royalty. When they had heard that you, the true heir to the kingdom of Kadien, was alive and here, they all flocked to you. They knew what had to be done, and they were determined to make it happen alongside you.

So now here you all were, huddled in a secret basement of a shop.

You're pawing at several scraps of paper right now, with the packs of eyes staring at you, muttering to each other. Elsa and Rita are standing beside you, awaiting your decision.

After spending a few minutes studying the maps on the table, you drop the papers and begin to pace back and forth. You're thinking. You're trying to propose a solution. As much as you want to do away with Hans and his army, you don't want to get your innocent civilians involved in the advance. At the same time, you know that they will only suffer longer if you leave him be.

You let out a grunt to yourself and you look up to look at all the eager eyes. This is not the time to blunder; you need to make a compromise. You lock eyes with Elsa and she gives you a soft smile, with an encouraging nod.

"One day from now, Queen Elsa and I will arrive at the break of dawn with Arendelle's forces," you propose. Elsa acknowledges your decision. It was one that she mentioned to you, after all. If you and Elsa were to leave right after this meeting, Elsa would have enough time to prepare her army and bring them here. You turn and scan your eyes through the crowd, "We also need to evacuate all the civilians before we arrive. I don't want them getting caught in the heat of battle."

The men and women in the room start talking excitedly. They are all agreeing with your choice and are volunteering to round the rest of the townspeople away from the battleground. You turn to your former guards next. They had all been forced into submission, but with you here, they had hope burning in their hearts. Without you saying anything, they already know what has to be done.

Your (former) royal guard captain simply salutes with his arm across his chest, "Your majesty, we'll take care of the patrol guards as you advance,"

You nod adamantly, "Thank you."

"Where will you be arriving from, Queen (Name)?" he asks.

"Arendelle," you place your finger on the map, on Arendelle, and then you trace your finger to Kadien, "We'll be arriving at the southern wall of Kadien. That's where we need the guards taken out, and the gate lowered."

The soldiers in the room all salute, "Yes ma'am!"

You close your eyes and inhale deeply before drawing your sword and raising it in the air. The plan is in motion.

"For Kadien!" you declare.

Instead of 'for Kadien', everyone responds with their fists in the air, softly chanting, "Queen (Name)!"

Shortly after, the group quietly leaves the basement, trying to blend back into the barren town without attracting the attention of Han's guards. You sheath your sword and turn back to look at the map, resolve burning in your eyes.

Elsa comes up beside you and places her hand on your cheek, pulling your gaze to her. "See; you are not a bad person. Everyone looks up to you. I'm proud of you."

"Thank you." You place your hand on hers. You were craving for her calming touch this whole time, "Thank you for staying beside me."

You are so indebted to her. First she saved your life and now here she was helping you save your kingdom. She gives you a sly smile and brushes your hair back, "You're a wonderful Queen."

"Not as wonderful as you." You say back. She was indeed, a amazing queen.

She gives you her signature giggle, the one that you find absolutely adorable. She bites her lower lip and her eyes flick to yours. You notice this and give her a soft smile as she closes her eyes. Unable to contain yourself anymore, you lean in and claim her lips. Elsa doesn't flinch, but instead runs her fingers through your long hair to your shoulder, kissing you back feverishly.

It's funny how just several hours ago you thought the first kiss was a dream, that it was just a wild fantasy that you had dreamt of after being relieved of your nightmares. Yet here you were, kissing her with certainty, "Thank you," you say again, against her warm lips. She lets out a small hum in response.

"Ahem," Rita tries to make her presence known in the doorway.

You and Elsa quickly pull away, embarrassed at the fact that someone walked on you two, brushing lips.

"Oh, um, hi Rita." You nervously say.

Elsa is mystified, "Rita."

Rita raises a brow at you two and laughs, "It's okay. The people of Kadien will support you both regardless of who you love."

You smile at the thought. Your townspeople were always warm and accepting, after all. A Queen and another Queen would make a wonderful couple to them.

"Anyways, you two should get going. Everyone is already preparing."

You take Elsa by the hand and glance at Rita, "Thank you, Rita. I promise you, we'll succeed."

"No…thank you, Queen (Name)."

You give Rita a wide smile before you retrieve your wolf and travel back to Arendelle.

Unbeknownst, you've looked a little too far into your path.
