Title: The Darkness Within (Part 3)
Genre: Hurt/Comfort/Tragedy
"ANNA!" Elsa screamed as she ran down the hall towards her sister's bedroom. She reached out to the door handle, and turned it...and her fears were confirmed. "Anna..."
"Elsa...please stay away..." Anna sobbed from the other side of the door.
"No Anna. You can't do this on your own. Remember what grand pabbie said?" Elsa asked as she rested her forehead on the door. So similar. So ironic. Anna herself said that locking yourself away from the rest of the world, was a stupid idea and that Elsa should never do it again, and now here Elsa was, on the outside of the door, while her sister was doing the very thing that she complained about all these years. "Please Anna. Just let me in."
"I...I hurt you." Anna said quietly, her voice crackling.
"No...no you didn't! I'm fine Anna!" Elsa said. When she heard no response, she continued. "Anna...you can't do this alone. Remember what you told me, just after the great thaw? You said, that you would always be there for me, and I'll always he there for you, no matter what. We can't do that if you're locking yourself away. Anna, locking yourself away won't fix this. It'll only make it worse. I know. Please Anna...don't and the same mistakes I did..."
"I'm sorry Elsa...for hurting you."
"You don't need to say sorry. I've hurt you before."
"Not like I just did."
"I froze your heart. I think that's still a lot worse than what you did. Please Anna...don't do this to me...to us."
"Anna?" Idun asked as she and Agdar approached the door. "Baby, please come out. Your sister is right, locking yourself away is not going to solve this. It'll just do more harm than good, and we were too blind to see that when we tried to help Elsa, and look what that did? Sweetie, please open up."
"But what if I lose control again?"
"Then we'll help. That's what family is for, that's what sister's are for. To always be there for you, no matter what. Please Anna." Elsa begged. She rested her head against the door and sighed. Silence gripped the castle hallway for a few seconds, and then, a small click broke the silence...a sound that was so simple, but meant the world to Elsa and their parents. She would have fallen forward had she not looked up at that very moment, to see the door opening, to see her little sister's, tear-streaked, face looking at her with so much sorrow.
"Oh Anna." Elsa mumbled as she pulled her crying sister into a hug, and allowing Anna to cry gently on her shoulder. Idun joined in as well as she hugged her two daughters and kissed them both on the head.
"Come on...let's get you cleaned up." Elsa whispered as she led her sister towards her own room. That way, if Anna locked herself away there, she at least had the key to get in.
"Guards. Get those looks of fear of your bloody faces and fetch my daughter some water." Agdar ordered the guards who nodded in response and hurried away, as Elsa and Anna sat on the bed. The minute Anna sat down, she immediately began inspecting Elsa for any injuries, despite the elder trying to wave her off.
"Anna...it's alright. I'm fine!" Elsa said as she put an arm around her sister's shoulder, Anna laying her head on her in response.
"Can...we see grand pabbie?"
"Not today. Bulda said he wouldn't be back until tomorrow. Don't worry dear. We'll be with you though." Idun said as she smiled at her youngest daughter. The guards soon returned with a glass of water before being called out into the hallway by Agdar.
"Listen, if you two speak of this incident to anyone, I will personally find you, and skin you alive, do I make myself clear?" Agdar asked. The guards looked at each other before nodding in understanding rapidly. "Good."
"I don't suppose gloves will help with telekinesis?" Anna asked her sister quietly.
"No...they probably wouldn't, and even if they did, I would burn every pair I find before I let you touch one of them." Elsa whispered earning a slight laugh from Anna, which warmed her heart significantly. Elsa jumped off the bed and got down on her knees, before pulling out a small box from underneath her bed, and sitting back on the bed and opening it to reveal several bars of chocolate.
"Here you go...milk chocolate." Elsa said as she handed one bar to Anna and opened one for herself. "Do you feel better now?"
"A bit." Anna mumbled as she took a bite out of the chocolate bar. "What about my powers?"
"What about them?"
"Do I still use them or not?" Anna asked.
"Well...that's kind of up to you. I'm not really sure what happened earlier." Elsa muttered. "Your hair...it flashed black and then your eyes, when you fired that shockwave, your eyes were completely black, not blue."
"What?" Anna gasped in shock. "But...all I remember was blacking out, and then the next thing I know, you're all on the ground."
Agdar and Idun looked at each other before staring back at their daughter with looks of concern.
"So...you don't remember doing any of that? Not even subconsciously?" Elsa asked to which Anna shook her head. She looked at her parents who were both at loss for words, not sure how to explain that. How can someone do something, without doing it? "Well...everything is alright now. Don't worry...I'm here, and so is mama and papa."
Anna nodded silently as she finished the last of her chocolate bar, and laid against Elsa. Elsa picked up one of the telekinesis books and started searching through it in the hopes that it could yield some useful information as to what just happened. And then, a thought flashed through Elsa's mind. She wasn't sure what made her think of it as it had nothing to do with Anna's powers...
"Born or cursed?"
"Born..."
"Certain sorcerers attain their powers at birth, whereas other sorcerers attain there powers after they are born. Those who possess magic, but weren't born with it, are said to be cursed with the powers, regardless of whether it was gifted or not, accident or intentional. The problem with powers that are obtained through magical artifacts, is that sometimes, an artifact may not only be carrying the magic. Sometimes, they can carry something alongside the powers as well."
"Anna. You don't think they maybe, when you touched that crystal, something else transferred as well, do you?" Elsa asked.
"What makes you say that?" Anna asked.
"Will you two be okay on your own?" Idun asked. "Me and your father still have some duties to do."
"We'll be fine." Elsa said as she pulled her sister closer as her parents left the room. Kristoff entered the room and sat on the other side of Anna.
"What were you saying about that crystal?" Anna asked.
"Well, grand pabbie knows more about this than I do, but I remember him saying once that if you aren't born with powers, you're cursed with them."
"Well...Anna touched a weird glowing stone in the middle of an unknown cave...sounds legit." Kristoff muttered.
"Well, I'm just thinking, what if that gem you touched transferred something else in to you as well?"
"What? Like a curse?" Anna asked.
"Maybe...I don't know. We'll just have to wait till grand pabbie gets back. Until then, the best thing I can suggest is that you don't overuse your powers or do anything too..."
"Anna-like with them. Well, I've got to return to my own ice delivery duties...so, I'll see you all later?" Kristoff asked to which they nodded. Anna gave him a quick peck on the cheek before the ice harvester left the into the hallway.
"So what do we do now?" Anna asked. Elsa just shrugged in response. She looked around the room for any thing that they could do, but she found none. "Well, we could always build the snowman!"
"Alright...but no snowball fights, alright. I think we've caused enough damage to my room as it is." Elsa laughed as Anna let out a small giggle. Elsa covered the entire room in ice and snow before the two of them got to work building the long needed snowman. For the next thirty minutes, the built around three snowmen, before engaging in a miniature snowball fight, which ended up escalating into a full scale war that ended when they both ended up covered in snow and ice.
"Do you think Gerda would be happy to clean this up?" Anna asked with a laugh.
"We should probably get out of here before Gerda arrives and throws us in the cellars." Elsa said. The two of them locked the room before walking down towards the courtyard and sitting down near one of the fountains. Anna smirked at her sister before doing a little flick of her hand and causing the fountain to splash Elsa with a little water.
"Anna!"
"What?" Anna laughed as Elsa rolled her eyes.
"You can be so immature sometimes, you know that?"
Anna just giggled in response.
"Come on...I owe you a trip to town." The two of them stood up and walked across the bridge to the town square where the people were busy doing their jobs or simply mingling around, talking to each other. Several of the people acknowledged the queen and princess by nodding which made a change from when everyone used to get down in the knees and say good morning. After Elsa and Anna got fed up to that, they decided to instruct the people to just greet the monarchs as if they were normal people, which the people happily obliged to do after being forced by the guards.
"Fancy getting some cake?" Anna asked.
"Anna, I'm pretty sure that even telekinesis has a weight limit." Elsa laughed as Anna started tickling her. "Aah! Anna! Stop that!"
"Good morning your majesty, your highness." The clerk greeted as the two of them entered the cafe. "What would you like today?"
"I'll have the black forest." Elsa said as she peered at the menu.
"And I'll have four slices of the white forest."
"She'll have one slice."
"Elsaaaaa." Anna groaned as the waitress took the menus away. Anna looked around at the tables and contemplated whether it was wise to use her powers in here.
"I know what you're thinking Anna. No." Elsa said plainly as she frowned at her sister.
"Well, the people will have to learn about it someday."
"That's not the reason. Remember what Bulda said about using it excessively for the meantime?"
"Oh."
"Here you go ladies." The waitress placed the two cakes in front of the sisters before heading off to the counter.
"Didn't mama tell us to cut down on the sweets?" Anna asked with a grin.
"What she doesn't know won't hurt her." Elsa said as she stiffed a forkful of cake into her mouth. The two of them finished their snacks before heading back out into the town square and just loitering around near the park, chatting about certain things, primarily Anna's powers.
"Imagine...I can create a massive force field around the entire Arendelle and block any attack. Or maybe, I can lift the ships into the air and drop them on the north mountain." Anna said excitedly as she imagined herself as leaded of the Arendellian military.
"Anna, there is no way in heck I'm allowing you to be a weapon of war." Elsa said as she stared her sister in the eye.
"Oh...well in that case, you better make that promise yourself. Because the minute I see you so much as go into battle, then so am I." Anna stated.
"Fine...but I have to use my powers to defend myself sometimes."
"Well, so do I."
"Anna. Your idea of defense is called war." Elsa said with a laugh.
"I would make an amazing general."
"The military would be more frightened of you than of the enemy."
"Yep. Perfect general."
"Queen Elsa! Queen Elsa!" Several children squealed as they ran up to the young queen.
"Oh hello dears."
"Can we please have some snow...please...pretty please." The children begged with pleading eyes.
"Now where does that look seem familiar?" Elsa grinned at her sister who rolled her eyes. Elsa crafted a small patch of snow nearby along with a small snowman for the children to play in.
"Hey kids...wanna see something even more amazing?" Anna asked to which the kids nodded excitedly. Anna looked around the park and saw a nearby apple tree. With a flick of her hand, she pulled the apples out to the tree and floated them towards the kids who were staring at them with their mouths open.
"Whoa..." The kids gasped as they held the apples. "How did you do that?"
"Telekinesis." Anna grinned as the kids looked at each other excitedly.
"Cool...can we see more?" The kids asked as several people from around the park were watching the princess.
"Sure...um...let's see..." Anna mumbled as she looked for something else to do. She looked at Elsa's snow and then, with a small gesture, crafted it all into a beautiful spiral spire that even Elsa would have trouble doing.
"Whoa...you're even better than queen Elsa." The kids said as the smile on Elsa's face faltered a bit.
"Hey! I am not better than my sister! She's just as good as I am. She made the shown in the first place." Anna said as she glanced at her sister who shot her a smile.
"Cool. Can you do anything else?"
"Well..."
"Yes...but no more for today. Anna needs to rest." Elsa said as the kids, and Anna, whined. He kids waved goodbye before running over to play with then snowy spire. "Come on, we should probably be going back now."
"That's seems like a good idea." Anna said as she stood up and followed her sister back towards the castle while several of the people in the park were glancing at each other in shock. They were about halfway there, and passing the bakery, when another sudden wave of pain struck Anna's head. Anna winced as she stumbled forward, her eyes slamming shut as she tried to withstand the pain without alerting her sister, who was concerned enough as it was.
"Princess Anna! Are you alright?" The baker asked as he rushed outside to the princess' aid.
"Anna? Anna!" Elsa gasped as she an back to her sister and helped support her sister, who winced before shaking her head as if to clear the dizziness. Both the baker and the queen gaped as Anna's hair flashed black again, albeit much longer this time, before Anna collapsed onto her knees. "GET THE DOCTOR!"
The Baker rushed as quickly as possible toward the town clinic as Anna continued to pant heavily, as if all the energy had been drawn out of her.
"Elsa...I'm scared..." Anna cried as she underwent another bout of pain. Elsa had absolutely no idea what to do. She now knew that this was linked to Anna's powers since these three events all occurred after Anna used her powers, but she didn't know how to treat her or even how to lessen the pain. Grand pabbie wouldn't be back till tomorrow afternoon and without him, they were essentially powerless to help her.
"Princess Anna!" The town physician yelled as he ran up to her. They quickly sat the princess down on a nearby seat as nearby citizens began crowding round in worry of the fate of their princess. "Can you hear me?"
Anna nodded her head in response as she grasped her sister's wrist tightly. Elsa had to actually bite her lip as Anna's nails dug into her wrist like a knife, but she didn't care. Her main focus was her sister who was currently whimpering in pain by her side. It broke her heart to see Anna in this state...even worse than when Anna's heart was freezing.
"It...doesn't...hurt as bad...as...earlier..." Anna whimpered, though Elsa could still clearly see, that this was significantly painful. She caressed her sister's cheek as Anna leaned against her and slowed her breathing while the doctor pulled out a small bottle and poured the liquid on Anna's forehead.
"This should help with the pain. Queen Elsa, has this happened before?" The doctor asked as the pain seemed to subside and Anna calmed down. Elsa nodded in response as the doctor, and citizens, looked at Anna pitifully.
"What's with all the commotion...Anna!" Agdar yelled as he ran up to his two daughters. "It's happening again?"
"Yes, but she said it's not as painful" Elsa said as Anna closed her eyes and rested her head on the queens shoulder.
"Elsa...we had to get her out of here...in case..." Agdar whispered as he gestured to all the curious citizens standing around. Agdar and Elsa helped stand Anna up before they helped walk her towards the castle, while the guards informed the citizens that everything would be alright and forced them to leave.
"Oh my god! What happened?" Idun asked as she watched the three of them enter. They entered the dining room and sat Anna down where she immediately snapped awake. Everyone took a step forward in shock, resisting the urge to scream, as they saw Anna's eyes which were, yet again, pitch black.
"Anna?" Elsa asked. They all took a step back when Anna snapped her head around and scowled at Elsa, before standing up, the candles flickering as she took a step forward. "Anna?"
Anna let out a low growl that didn't sound anything like her. And then, without warning, Anna pulled her arms behind her head before doing a rapid launching motion, sending everything in the room flying straight at them. Elsa reacted instantly, immediately crafting a massive ice wall which could barely hold back the onslaught of dozens of chairs and the whole dining table.
Anna took a step forward before sending out a massive telekinetic wave that shattered the ice wall like a sledgehammer striking glass, shards of ice flying in all directions. The guards and servants screamed as they tried to flee from the room, but Anna slammed the door shut, knocking several of the servants backwards. Elsa stared fearfully at her sister, or what she thought was her sister. She couldn't see any part of Anna in there whatsoever, her kind eyes, personality, love, were all gone, and even her hair seemed to be a darker shade of brown.
"ANNA! PLEASE!" Elsa screamed. Anna lifted her hand up as she levitated all the ice shards on the floor, the servants and guards cowering backwards as the look on Anna's face turned to one of pure hatred. All their eyes widened as the ice shards pointed in their directions. Elsa closed her eyes and screamed her sisters name.
The next thing she heard was the sound of dozens of falling pieces of ice, followed by a loud thump. Elsa opened her eyes slowly as she looked in front of her and gasped when she saw her sister sprawled out on the floor, unconscious and not breathing.
"ANNA!" Elsa screamed as she rushed to her sister's side, not caring that she had just tried to kill everyone in the room.
"ELSA! STAY AWAY FROM HER!" Agdar screamed as Idun jumped up and ran after Elsa. If it wasn't for her concern of her sister's wellbeing, she would have hit him then and there, regardless that he was her father. She rushed to Anna's side and felt for as pulse, which she found, albeit extremely weak.
"SOMEONE GET A DOCTOR!" Idun screamed as she lifted her daughter up. The servants stared at each other before one kicked the doors open and ran towards the infirmary.
Agdar could only stare at the devastation in front of him, before looking at Anna's unconscious form.
Anna groaned in her sleep before shaking her head slightly and opening her eyes. She looked around and saw that it was already nighttime. She sat up as she rubbed her eyes, and looked on her side, surprised to see her sister fast asleep on the bed. Anna gasped as she saw several cuts on Elsa's face and arms, some looking quite deep.
Anna was about to wake her sister up but stopped when she heard voices coming from outside. She slowly climbed out of bed, careful not to wake her sister, and crept towards the door. The voices appeared to be coming from her mother and father.
"...see grand pabbie! He's the only one who can help her."
"I know...but we have to be careful around her. There's no telling what she can do next." Agdar said. "Are you sure it's safe for Elsa to be next to her at the moment?"
That phrase struck Anna in the heart like a knife. It took all her willpower for her not to let out a sob. Did she really cause that much damage.
"I can't believe you!" Idun gasped. "How could you ask something like that?! She's her sister!"
"You saw what Anna just did in the dining room. She freaking tried to kill us!" Agdar shouted.
"NO!" Idun yelled with such force that, for a moment, Anna thought it would be enough to wake Elsa. "That was NOT Anna!"
"What are you talking about?"
"Are you that blind Agdar! You may be so blind that you can't differentiate your own daughters attitudes, but I'm not! As their mother, I know that whatever happened earlier on, was not Anna! Black eyes? Dark hair? Does that sound like Anna to you? Does that sound like your own darling daughter? Anna sacrificed herself to save her sister! She fought for thirteen years to get Elsa to come out! Anna is not the type of person to hurt others, and she sure as hell isn't the one that tried to kill us earlier on! Now I don't know who the hell had Anna's mind, earlier on, but that sure as hell, wasn't my daughter!"
"Idun...I'm just trying..."
"Trying to what?" Idun screamed. "Trying to ruin Anna's life?"
"Ruin her life?!" Agdar shouted as his voice rose. "Were you even paying attention to what just happened. She tried to impale us with freaking icicles. She threw her sister against the wall yesterday!"
"No! It, threw Elsa against the wall. Whatever had taken control of Anna, did all of this!"
"It doesn't matter whether it was Anna or something else! Anna still, physically, tried to kill us!"
"Have you no faith in your daughter anymore?"
"I am trying to think logically here! Has Elsa ever tried to kill us? Has she ever tried to throw a ton of furniture at us? What we did to Elsa was a mistake, but that is nothing compared to what Anna is now capable of! Anna's powers are dangerous! SHE IS A DANGER..."
Agdar was cut off as a loud slap suddenly echoed down the hallways, and Anna immediately knew that her mother had just slapped her father on the face.
"You...do not talk about Anna that way. Anna is my daughter! She is sweet, kind, loving, and cares more about her family and others than anyone else I know off. Now I don't care what you think in that stupid mind of yours, but I know that Anna did not do that, and I would rather die, than repeat to Anna what we did to Elsa!" Idun growled.
"I'm just trying to protect..."
"You don't know shit about protection! You tried to protect Anna from Elsa for thirteen years, but all you did was tear them apart, and cause Elsa to fear her powers! And look at the result! If you're just going to make things worse, then you stay away from them, do you understand me?!"
"They're my daughters as well!"
"If you keep up this attitude, they won't be for long!"
And with that, Idun stormed down the hallway, leaving a sighing Agdar in her midst. Unbeknownst to both of them though, was that Anna had heard every single word of their conversation, and was now curled up against the door, tears rolling down her eyes.
She didn't want to believe what her father had said, but inside, she knew he was right. She was a danger. Whatever was inside of her was making its mark on her family, and now, even her own father was frightened of her.
"Anna?" Elsa asked as she looked up and noticed the bed was empty. She turned around and quickly ran over upon seeing her crying sister sitting by the door. "Anna! Are you alright? What happened?"
Anna shook her head as she continued to sob into her arms.
"Anna! Tell me what happened!" Elsa demanded.
"I...just heard...mama and papa arguing. Papa thinks I'm a danger to everyone, especially you." Anna sniffled causing Elsa to gasp. She couldn't believe that her father would say such a thing, after the events of the last thirteen years! This only made Elsa even more infuriated against Agdar, but her main focus at the moment was being there for her sister, like Anna was ever since the coronation day.
"You're not dangerous Anna!"
"Yes I am!"
"Don't you ever say that you're dangerous! Do you understand me?!" Elsa ordered. Anna hesitated at first before nodding. "Papa has no idea what he's taking about, and the proof is how he taught me to control my powers. He doesn't know anything alright?"
Anna nodded before Elsa helped her up and carried her over to the bed.
"What time is it?" Anna asked.
"It's already ten. Tomorrow when grand pabbie arrives, we'll bring you there, and hopefully he'll be able to find out what is happening with you." Elsa said as she climbed into bed next to her sister.
"Wait, you're staying here tonight?" Anna asked.
"Yes. I'm not leaving you on your own, not when you need someone to be with you."
"But what if I..."
"You're not going to lose control so long as you don't use your powers." Elsa said as she kissed Anna on the forehead. "Don't worry. Papa isn't going to separate us, and if he tries, my authority as queen will overrule him. Don't worry...I will be right here."
Anna could only sniffle as she moved in closer to Elsa, and allowed her to cuddle her. Elsa hummed a time slowly as she stroked Anna's hair, staying awake and humming continuously until she was sure that Anna was asleep, upon which she closed her own eyes and fell asleep too.
"Anna...come on. It's breakfast time." Elsa said as she shook her sister awake. Anna mumbled something before rolling onto her back and opening her eyes slightly. She could see the cloudy skies outside and her sister by the dresser braiding her hair.
"Is grand pabbie back yet?" Anna asked a she rubbed her eyes and let out a yawn.
"It's still morning, son we won't be leaving till lunchtime. I suspect that he would be back around that time. If he's not, we'll just wait there." Elsa said as she put the brush down and walked over to her sister. "Come on. Get out of bed sleepyhead."
"I can't be bothered. I'll just come down when we're ready to leave." Anna said as she pulled the blankets up over her head. Elsa shook her head before ripping the blankets off and dragging her sister out of bed. "Ow! Elsa!"
"What? You do it to me!"
"Yeah...but that's different." Anna said. Elsa could clearly see that her sister was still acting quite gloomy, no doubt from her father's words and the events of yesterday. "
"Come on. Just stay close to me and everything will be alright." Elsa and as she grabbed her sister's hand and pulled her towards the wardrobe. Anna dressed into colorful before her sister dragged her out of the room end towards the common room, where Gerda had informed them breakfast would be held, since the dining room was a little devastated at the moment.
"Mama? Papa?" Elsa called out as she enters the common room with Anna.
"Elsa! Anna!" Idun screeched as she jumped up and ran over, enveloping Anna into a tight hug. "Are you alright Anna?"
"I should be asking you that." Anna mumbled.
"Hey, Anna, what happened yesterday was not your fault. Whatever is inside you and causing this, pabbie will find it and if I get my hands on it, I shall make it pay." Idun growled. She looked at Elsa who gave her a strange look. Idun didn't understand u til Elsa got close and whispered something into her ear that made Idun pale. "Anna? You...you heard the argument?"
Anna nodded In response as Idun let out a sigh.
"Anna...your father isn't the smartest when it comes to knowing what's best. He doesn't have the same instincts as me, your mother. I can sense things that he can't, and so can your sister. Disregard whatever your father soar because he was just a little shaken, that is all. I promise you that he will never separate you two not ever even try anything he did on Elsa before, not while I'm still alive."
"Where is papa?" Elsa asked.
"He's not attending breakfast this morning." Idun said plainly before sitting back down on the sofa, and forcing Anna to sit down next to her. "Are you alright at the moment Anna?"
"I think so."
"Just don't think about your powers, alright. And don't try using them. If you feel like something isn't right, just tell me or Elsa. I've told the guards what's happening and they understand. And don't pay any attention to your father. Now, what do you want for breakfast?"
"Anything." Anna said as she folder just arms in on herself. Elsa sighed slightly before sitting next to her sister and putting an arm round her shoulder. Gerda came in a few seconds later and upon seeing the princess, gave her a smile.
"Good morning your highness. Are you feeling alright this morning?" Gerda asked. To say she wasn't afraid would be a lie, but, after seeing what Elsa was capable off for thirteen years, she was nowhere near afraid as the other guards and servants were, and was actually appalled when Idun informed her about what Agdar had said.
"A bit better." Anna said.
"Good enough. Oh, and the other one is in the throne room, in case you wish to know." Gerda said, referring to Agdar of course. "So, the usual?"
"Yes...oh, and please bring some chocolate if you can." Elsa said, knowing that Anna always had the tendency to be a little happier with even a bit of chocolate inside of her. The servant nodded before disappearing from the common room, leaving the three women inside.
"So, um...about yesterday...did you black out again?" Elsa asked. To her surprise, Anna shook her head. Instead, tears started to prick at the corner of her eyes.
"I...I saw it all...buy...I couldn't do anything. It was as if I was watching from the end of a tunnel, but when I tried to do something, nothing happened. I tried to stop it..." Anna sobbed.
"Anna...there's nothing that you could have done. Whatever is controlling you, is more powerful. But it only seems to come out when you use your powers...so please don't use them, not until grand pabbie removes whatever else is within you as well." Elsa said to which Anna nodded.
"I'm so sorry." Anna whispered.
"Its alright. You'll be okay after today...you'll be fine." Idun cooed as she caressed her daughter's cheek.
The three of them sat in silence for the next few minutes until Gerda and kai arrived with their breakfasts. After that, Elsa tried to strike up a conversation with Anna in an attempt to take her mind off of what happened, and it seemed to work, especially when Idun gave Anna some chocolate. By the end breakfast, Anna was already smiling, as if the events of yesterday were forgotten.
"So..." Anna mumbled as she looked at the clock which read eleven o' clock. "Should we go and see grand pabbie now?"
"We'll give it a few more minutes. You two go get dressed some I go talk to your father." Idun said as she ruffled Anna's hair and ten disappeared down the hall and towards the throne room.
"Come on." Elsa said as she helped her sister up and walked back to their bedroom. Anna sat down on the bed while Elsa busied herself in tidying up her room.
"Elsa?"
"Yes Anna" Elsa asked as she placed a stack of books under her desk.
"Do you think I'm dangerous?"
"What?!" Elsa shrieked as she turned around and faced her sister. "Why would you ask that?"
Anna just shrugged in response.
"No Anna. You're not dangerous. Well you are dangerous when it comes to hunting and adventures, i mean, how many times have you returned Kristoff here with a broken bone..." Elsa laughed causing Anna to let out a slight giggle. "...but with your powers? No. You're not dangerous. Technically, I'm more dangerous than you are."
"No you're not Elsa. I tried to kill you yesterday..."
"Uhuh...but I did freeze your heart accidentally when I lost control...and that's when I thought I really did kill you then."
"Yeah...but that was only for like five seconds. I don't think that counts." Anna said with a roll of her eyes as Elsa let out a small laugh.
"And that wasn't you yesterday Anna. Stop saying that it was you who did that, because it wasn't and never will be. My sweet, kind, lovable, immature, and chocolate living sister would never hurt anyone intentionally." Elsa said. Anna could feel her heart warm up at the sound of that as Elsa brought her into a hug. "Remember Anna. No matter what, I will never leave you again. I'll always be there for you...understand?"
Anna nodded in as she cuddled her sister tightly nuzzled her head into Elsa's neck, both the girls unaware that Idun was watching them from the doorway.
"Girls..."
"Mama!" The two of them gasped causing their mother to laugh.
"Are you two ready? Kristoff is waiting in the town square. We're leaving now." Idun said. The sisters nodded as they climbed off of the bed and followed their mother down the hall towards the ground floor.
"Your father isn't coming though. He'll be staying here to watch over the castle." Idun muttered as they passed by the throne room. Elsa could see Agdar inside, watching them pass, as he drunk what appeared to be a glassful full of whisky. The three of them exited the castle and walked across the courtyard towards the bridge to the town square. Anna looked around and couldn't help but feel guilty as she noticed that every guard's eyes were upon her. Obviously, the events of yesterday would have spread like wildfire, just as Elsa's powers did on her coronation. Except, Anna's tale was a little more fearsome than Elsa's, which may explain why several of the guards were eyeing her fearfully.
"Don't mind them." Idun muttered as they walked across the bridge where several of the citizens were watching them approaching. Anna could have sworn that they were talking about her, since some were glancing at her before muttering to their friends.
"Anna. Elsa. Idun. Are you ready?" Kristoff asked as the sleigh moved up to them. "Anna? Are you ready? Anna?"
Elsa looked around and saw that Anna was standing several feet behind her, completely motionless, her breathing rapid and erratic as she glanced between different parts of the square.
"Anna?" Elsa asked as she slowly approached her sister.
"Elsa...I..." Anna gasped as she started to wince. The pain was starting to begin again, except this time, it felt different. It wasn't the excruciating pain like last time, but rather an aching pain that persisted as everything around Anna seemed to spin. The sounds around her became muddy as her vision blurred and the world began to sway.
"Oh no..." Idun gasped as she noticed what was happening.
"Anna? Just keep calm. Think happy thoughts! Focus on my voice!" Elsa said as she got closer to her sister. The people looked at each other wearily, some taking a step back while others actually moved forward to see what was happening. Several guards by the gate can over to the town square and watched the princess. "Anna...everything is going to be okay. Just be calm. Don't think about your powers. Think of me...think of mama."
"Princess! It'll be alright!" A citizen said. But Anna couldn't hear it. All she could hear was a high pitched shrill in the background that grew louder and louder until...
"AAH!" Anna screamed as she collapsed to her knees and covered her ears, wincing in pain. Elsa and Idun screamed as they, and Kristoff, ran over to her.
"Oh shit..." A guard muttered as he knew what was going on since he was one of the witnesses from yesterday's events.
"Elsa! You have...to...go!" Anna screamed as she fell onto her hands and knees.
"We have to get her to pabbie now! He'll be able to find out what is wrong with her!" Kristoff said.
"NO!" Anna suddenly screamed. Gasped as a sudden shock wave forced them back several feet. She looked up and was Anna kneeling on the ground, covering her face.
"Anna?" Elsa asked. Her eyes widened as she watched her sister's hair slowly turn a pitch black color. The citizen glanced at each other in shock, never before seeing this form of magic.
"What's wrong with the princess?" They asked. They all watched as Anna stopped panting and her breathing slowed. Except, unlike before, her hair remained black. Slowly Anna brought down the hands from her face causing several of the citizens to scream. Her eyes were pitch black.
"No." Idun said. "ANNA!"
Anna snapped her head around in the direction of Idun, her face contorted into a snarl.
"Anna?"
In a split second, Anna used her powers and threw Idun into the air for a good ten feet, before she crumpled to the ground and hit a tree.
"MAMA!" Elsa screamed as she chased after her mother. Several of the citizens started running as the guard panicked, trying to contemplate what to do. This was the princess attacking, yet they had no idea whether to ignore her, or engage her.
"Do something!" The captain screamed.
"No harm shall come to the princess! Capture her only!" The guards screamed as they sheathed their swords and grabbed some rope instead. Anna noticed this and quickly spun around before sending several guards flying into the water. Anna then created a massive telekinetic shockwave that leveled an entire building before blasting several people into the air, and slamming them into the ground.
"ANNA! STOP THIS!" Elsa screamed as she helped her dazed mother up. But Anna wasn't listening. She ripped an entire tree out of the ground before launching it straight at the bakery and destroying the entire ground floor. She then whisked around and threw back several guards who were trying to flank her. She lifted several guards into the air before throwing them into the fjord or smashing them against the stone bridge, just as more guards came running out of the castle barracks. Anna let out a deep growl before creating a spinning motion with her hands, and launching a powerful shockwave down the bridge that threw every guard back by at least twenty feet..
"ANNA!" Elsa screamed. "PLEASE! CONTROL YOURSELF! YOU CAN FIGHT THIS!"
Anna suddenly stopped using her powers and turned around, facing Elsa with a piercing grin.
"Anna...please...I know you're in there...you can fight this!" Elsa begged.
Anna just let out a blood curdling laugh before glaring at Elsa.
"Oh Elsa...your precious little sister is already gone..." Anna growled as Elsa, Idun, and Kristoff gasped.
"What the?" Kristoff muttered in shock. Anna lifted her hands up and picked up numerous bricks and other stone debris, before coalescing into a ball and launching it straight at Elsa. Luckily, Kristoff knocked Elsa and Idun out of the way, allowing the ball to miss and crash into a shop on the other side. Anna grinned before talky a step forward, before she suddenly let out a squeak. Her eyes widened before she fell to the ground, asleep.
Standing behind her was Agdar, holding a tranquilizer rifle.
"Anna!" Elsa and Idun ran over to her and picked her up.
"You can't bring her!" Agdar stated. "I don't know how long these darts last, but if she wakes up while you're travelling, there's no telling what she could do!"
"He's right!" Kristoff said. "We have to get to the valley as soon as possible, and get grand pabbie back here now! He's the only hope we have!"
"Idun...if wait you said yesterday is correct, then at the moment, this isn't Anna. This is someone else...and this someone else could wake up any minute now. The best hope is to keep her locked up until pabbie gets here!" Agdar said.
"No!" Idun shouted. "You're not locking up my daughter!"
"Idun! Look what she did!" Agdar pointed to the devastated ruins of the town square. "It'll only be till pabbie arrives and cures her. We can't risk her waking up and destroying Arendelle. It's the only way Idun."
Idun just shook her head as she let a tear fall.
"Idun...if you think that I don't care about Ann because of those powers, then you're wrong! I care about her just as much as I care about you and Elsa. And you're right, I may not always make the wisest decision, but in this case, we don't have any other choice. If we leave her hear, this...thing...whatever is possessing Anna, could wake up any second and wreak havoc in Arendelle. Idun...please...just trust me in this."
"The sooner we get pabbie here, the sooner we can get this all fixed!" Kristoff said. Idun took one last look at her daughter before nodding and climbing into the sleigh with Elsa and Kristoff.
"Bring her to my study and guard the entrance! Go now!" Agdar ordered as they carried Anna to the castle. "No harm is to come to my daughter. Whoever the fuck you are in my daughter's mind, I will fucking kill you for doing this to her!"
"COME ON SVEN! FASTER!" Kristoff yelled as he urged the reindeer to ride as fast as possible.
"What did she mean, Anna's already gone?" Idun asked.
"I don't know...this can't he happening!" Elsa cried as she clutched her head. The thought of her sister, being possessed by something was too much for Elsa to handle, and that was proven by the ice trail she was leaving in the sleigh's wake. It toon around twenty minutes to reach the valley at this speed, and they didn't even bother allowing the sleigh to stop, before Elsa and Idun jumped out.
"GRAND PABBIE!"
"Elsa! Idun! Where is she?!" Grand pabbie asked as he rolled up to them quickly.
"She's in Arendelle! She's...not herself! She just tore apart the town square and attacked us all yesterday..."
"We have to hurry!" Grand pabbie interrupted as he grabbed some gear and jumped into the sleigh. "We must get to Arendelle now! I fear Anna's life is in danger, along with everyone else's."
Idun and Elsa jumped into the sleigh as Sven rushed them back to Arendelle as fast as he could.
"Can someone please explain to me, why my daughter is acting like this?!" Idun begged. Grand pabbie reached into his bag and pulled out a small crystal.
"Kristoff...this is the crystal Anna touched, am I correct?" Pabbie asked to which Kristoff nodded in response.
"What is it?" Elsa asked.
"This crystal was what originally stored the telekinetic magic. But, it also contained a fragmented soul."
"A what?" The three asked in unison.
"A fragmented soul occurs when a sorcerer becomes so corrupted by their powers, that they tear apart their own soul, breaking it into pieces. These fragments can carry part of the sorceresses personality, and they can also be imbued into a magical artifact, sometimes alongside magic. When a person strains the magic, in this case Anna, then magic transfers, but so does this soul fragment. Thos fragment, rapidly taken strength in the host, feeding off their emotions and their new-found magic, slowly overtaking then until it gains control."
"What does it want with Anna?" Kristoff asked.
"Nothing. It just wants to cause chaos. Death. Destruction. Once it has caused enough, it will either kill the host, or continue causing destruction until someone kills it." Pabbie answered as Elsa and Idun let out a gasp.
"There must be a cure!" Kristoff stated.
"There is no cure...as such. A fragmented soul cannot be destroyed since technically...it already is. But, you can trap it...pull it out of the sorcerer's body and trap it in an artifact like it was originally. That's what I have this gem for. I know the charm...if I can get to Anna, I can draw out the soul, and lock it in this gem again."
"That's it? Anna will be cured after that?" Elsa asked.
"Yes. She can even keep the powers." Pabbie said. Suddenly, a massive explosion could be heard coming from Arendelle, and the four of them immediately knew that, that could not mean anything good. They hurried back to Arendelle as fast as possible, and arrived to a scene of utter devastation. There was now a massive hole in the side of the castle where the study used to be, and debris lay strewn all over the courtyard.
"Agdar! What happened?! Where Anna?!" Idun asked in panic.
"She escaped. We tried to stop her..." Agdar said as he winced. "She threw me down the bloody corridor."
"The fragment is getting stronger." Pabbie muttered. "We had to find her now!"
"Which way did she go?" Elsa asked her father. He pointed upwards as they raised their brows.
"She flew?" Kristoff asked to which Agdar nodded before wincing in pain. Idun gasped as she held her husband and called for a physician. "Flew? How can she fly?"
"Telekinesis can be harnessed to levitate you and propel you, therefore giving you the capability of flight." Pabbie explained. "We are wasting time standing here! We need to find out where she has gone, and fast, before she destroys more."
"Your majesty. I'm not sure if this will be any use to you, but for some reason, Anna stole one of your maps." A guard said.
"What? Which map?" Elsa asked in surprise.
"The map of the southern isles your majesty." The five of them glanced at each other in shock.
"The fragment must be reading her memories, finding her enemies and destroying them first because it's easiest. If Anna reaches the southern isles, she'll reduce that kingdom to dust." Pabbie warned. "We have to stop her now!"
"How? Anna can fly with telekinesis. We can't!" Kristoff said. Elsa looked at her hands for a second before looking at a large, empty, patch in the courtyard. She took a deep breath before mustering all her focus to shape her ice into a figure.
"Oh...my...god..." Kristoff gasped as he watched Elsa materialize an ice dragon in seconds. He was even more shocked she the dragon forward and roared.
"I've been...kinda...practicing." Elsa said as she mounted the dragon. "Um Kristoff? You're the only one that knows how to steer a reindeer and horse, so, you'll be the driver here."
"Wait, what? That's neither a reindeer nor a horse. Horses and reindeer's don't fly!" Kristoff said. "I don't know how fly that!"
"Well boy, you better learn fast otherwise your girlfriend will be dead and Europe will be in ruins." Pabbie said as he mounted the dragon.
"I'm coming." Agdar said as he and Idun mounted behind Elsa and pabbie. Kristoff looked at the dragon before sighing and sitting in front of Elsa, trying to guess just how to get it into the air.
"Does this understand commands like a horse?" Kristoff asked.
"I said I practice. I never said I tried riding it." Elsa said. "Come on. We have to get to Anna now."
"Remind me why it's wrong for Anna to kill prince Hans? He tried to kill you and her!" Kristoff stated.
"She'll destroy all of the Southern isles...and she is not immortal. I said it's hard to kill a telekinetic, but I never said that it's impossible!" Pabbie stated. Kristoff looked at the dragon before snapping on the reins, causing the dragon to launch straight into the air.
"OH...GOD!" Idun yelled as she held on to Elsa tightly. Kristoff let out a small laugh as he leveled the dragon off. Then he remembered that Anna could be in trouble or killing innocent people which pushed him to push the dragon as fast as possible.
"Wait! Where the heck is the Southern isles?!" Kristoff asked.
"In the south!" Agdar said.
"That's as precise as saying Arendelle is in Norway." Kristoff stated.
"Hold on...just continued heading south till we reach Weselton, and then it's southwest from there." Pabbie said.
"The duke of Weselton isn't going to try shooting us out of the air, is he?" Idun asked with a frown.
"Well, we're about to find out!"
A few hours later in the southern isles...
"I don't think that's a good idea." Lecter said as he pulled the sword out of Hans' hands.
"What? I'm not going to try stabbing you buffoons with it." Hans scowled as he tried to pick up a crossbow, but it also got snatched out of his hands by Alexander.
"We know...but, after what you did in Arendelle, we can't trust you anymore, sorry." Alexander said. "Plus, you're supposed to be in the dungeons. You're lucky we let you out early."
"I'm under castle arrest. How is that an improvement?"
"Would you father be locked in a ten by ten cell?" Lecter asked with a sneer. " I can always arrange that."
"Say...what's that in the sky?" Alexander asked as he saw a black object closing in fast. The three of them squinted at it before gasping...
"HOLY FUCK! RUN!" The southern island guards screamed as an entire cannon, smashed into the courtyard and flattened a guard. This was followed by screams coming from the town square, then the castle gates exploding inwards, flying towards the castle and smashing into several people. Hans, Alexander, AMS Lecter stated in shock as a black-haired woman strutted into the courtyard, just as the other brothers, and numerous guards came running out of the castle.
"Anna?!" Hans gasped in shock as he realized who it really was.
"THAT'S THE ARENDELLIAN PRINCESS?" Lecter screamed as Anna turned towards them.
"Hello Hans." Anna sneered as she threw a guard into the wall. "And that's princess Anna to you."
"What the hell?" Hans gaped as he grabbed a sword. Anna scowled before yanking the sword out of his hand with her powers and smashing it to pieces on the ground.
"You never mentioned she had powers!" Alexander screamed.
"Because she didn't...not before!" Hans replied.
"What do you want?!" King Heinrich of the Southern isles asked.
"Revenge...simple as that." Anna smirked, before lifting the king up into the air and smashing him against the ground, killing him instantly.
"FATHER!" The princes shouted as the guards grabbed their weapons and open fired. Anna growled as she deflected all the incoming rounds before yanking all the rifles from their hands, and smashing them all together, destroying them all.
"HOLY SHIT! WE NEED BACKUP!" A guard screamed as everyone began fleeing in panic. One of the brothers grabbed a crossbow and fired it at Anna, but she just deflected the arrow with a lazy flick of her wrist, before lifting up a dozen swords and launching them at the prince and nearby guards, skewering them all and killing them instantly. Hans screamed as he jumped for cover and stayed behind, unable to process what was going on. He thought Elsa's powers were one thing, but this...
A massive erosion ripped through the courtyard as Anna launched the entire castle gate at a large group of soldiers, and threw them all back against the surrounding walls. Anna let out a terrifying roar before blasting everyone back with a massive telekinetic wave.
"She eyed the eleven, still alive, brothers standing paralyzed on the other end not the courtyard, before picking up dozens of swords, rifles, crossbows, and various other heavy debris and lifting it all up into the air.
"Oh god." One of the brothers gasped.
"Goodbye...prince Hans." Anna sneered as she launched everything at the brothers. Suddenly, a massive ice wall erupted between them and the projectiles, causing all the inbound debris to smash into it and clutter harmlessly to the floor. Anna gasped as we spun around and was met by a shocking site.
"ANNA!" Elsa screamed as an ice dragon landed right in the courtyard, before Elsa, Kristoff, Idun, Agdar, and grand pabbie dismounted.
"YOU!" Anna growled. She picked up a cart and launched it straight at them. They barely jumped out of the way as it collided with the ice dragon and smashed it to pieces.
"She's under the control of the soul!" Pabbie said. "There's no reasoning with her! We have to trap her!"
"How the fuck do you trap someone who can launch a goddamn ship at you?!" Kristoff screamed.
"Agdar! Do you have anymore of those tranquilizer darts?" Pabbie asked to which he nodded and handed three to pabbie, just as Anna threw back more incoming guards.
"ENOUGH!" Anna screed at the top of her lungs as what felt like an earthquake rocked the castle. She turned around and her eyes flashed red before she literally tore down the castle wall and launched it at the barracks and an entire naval battalion on the nearby coast, destroying everything in the path of the debris.
"How the hell can she do that? She never learned how to do that!" Agdar stated.
"Anna doesn't know...but the fragment does! It knows how to use its own powers...all it needed was a host, and Anna is that!" Pabbie explained. "We have to knock her out again!"
Anna turned around to the princes, who were scattering, before launching one of them through a window and into the castle.
"Elsa! You have to stop her!" Agdar said.
"What?! I'm not using my powers on Anna! I might hurt her!" Elsa screamed.
"She's tearing apart then southern isles and killing innocent people! If we don't stop her now, she could kill us as well!" Agdar stated. Kristoff grabbed a nearby net and ran over before anyone could stop him. What a foolish maneuver, as Anna turned around and threw her boyfriend back, smashing him into a cart.
"KRISTOFF!" Elsa screamed. She takes at Anna, and for a moment, she thought she saw Anna's hair lighten, her eyes flash blue...a look of horror and utter remorse...but it disappeared instantly as was replaced by raging fury. "ANNA! YOU HAVE TO STOP THIS! YOU'RE HURTING INNOCENT PEOPLE!"
Anna paid no attention as she lifted several torches and threw them into the castle, igniting the ground floor. Several of the princes and guards tried flanking her, hut she easily anticipated their attack and countered them, before smashing them against the ground, knocking several of hem unconscious.
"Elsa! You have to use your powers. They're the only thing that could possibly give as a small chance to save Anna. If she destroys the southern isles, and kills us, who will save her?" Agdar asked.
"Elsa...your father is right." Pabbie said. "Just don't aim for her heart or head. I can cure everything else without ill consequence."
"Try freezing her legs to the ground. It might give us enough time to inject her with this!" Agdar said as he loaded a tranquilizer dart into a rifle and cocked it. Anna heard the click and turned around, her eyes narrowing on them.
"RUN!" Kristoff yelled as he jumped up and fled. Anna launched more swords and projectiles at them, a sword clipping Idun's arm and causing her to scream, though luckily the wound wasn't that deep.
"ANNA! PLEASE STOP THIS! THIS ISN'T YOU! I WANT MY MIND AND CARING SISTER BACK!" Elsa screamed.
"She's never coming back!" Anna laughed maniacally, before launching a telekinetic wave at Elsa. Elsa managed to craft an ice shield which took the brunt of the force, but it was still strong enough to knock her back several feet. "Now prince Hans...what to do with you?"
Hans screamed in fear as Anna threw the cart, that was shielding him, away before ripping a crossbow out of his hands and smashing it on the ground. He whimpered as he tried to run but Anna just threw him back like a doll. He slowly got up and stared in fear as Anna began to approach him.
"No...please...I beg you!" Hans begged as he tried to escape but Anna just yanked him back. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry I tried to kill you and your sister!"
"Ha! You think I care about that? That stupid little Anna might have, but I don't!" Anna sneered as Hans looked at her in confusion. "I'm just here for sweet destruction because you were the first and foremost target...and I knew your strengths and weaknesses."
"Please...I'll give you anything!" Hans cried.
"Okay...I'll take your life!" Anna laughed as she lifted Anna high into the air, causing him to choke. "Wall, or floor?"
"ANNA! PLEASE STOP IT! YOU HAVE TO FIGHT IT! PLEASE!" Elsa screamed out alongside Idun. At that very moment, Anna's hair flashed brown as the look of fury turned into one of shock, but it only lasted for a moment before she was possessed again.
"Not going to happen!" Anna growled at herself as she turns back towards herself.
"ANNA!" Elsa screamed. She watched her sister wince in pain again as be hair turns strawberry blonde...and then black.
"ANNA! FIGHT THIS! YOU CAN DO THIS!" Idun, Agdar, and Kristoff screamed in unison as they tried to encourage her. Anna screamed in fury before collapsing to her knees and growling. Hans, still suspended in the air, along with everyone we watched as Anna grabbed her head and screamed.
"GET OUT!" Anna screamed, as he hair flashed strawberry blonde again, and Elsa knew that, that was her sister who screamed that.
"DO IT! REMEMBER WHAT YOU ONCE TOLD ME?" Elsa asked. "YOU SAID THAT YOU WOULD ALWAYS BE THERE FOR ME! THAT YOU WOULD PROTECT ME NO MATTER WHAT! AND THAT I SWORE THAT SAME THING! HOW CAN YOU FULFILL THAT IF YOU LET OT CONTROL YOU!?"
"SHUT UP!" Anna screamed as she lifted her hand and aimed at Elsa, but her hand resisted aiming, Anna fighting back from the inside.
"No...one...harms...my...sister!" Anna growled as she began to take control of her body, her hair starting to return to its color, but the fragment pushed back harder as well. Anna collapsed to her and knees and growled, half of her hair was strawberry blonde while the other half was black, one eye cerulean blue, and the other eye black. She looked up at Elsa and she could see Anna fighting back internally.
"ANNA! YOU CAN DO IT! YOU'RE STRONGER THAN IT IS!" Elsa screamed. She watched as Anna slowly fought for control, winning with every passing second. For a moment, she could see Anna winning...taking over...reclaiming her control and her body.
"NO!" Anna screamed as she shook her head.
"Anna..." Idun whimpered as she looked at her daughter.
"FINE!" Anna growled at herself through gritted teeth as an evil grin appeared on her face. "YOU WANT YOUR BODY BACK ANNA? YLU CAN HAVE IT!"
Anna let out a huge roar before the fragmented soul summoned all of its remaining energy and control, and attained control of Anna's body for a split second. But all it needed was a split second!
A split second to summon her powers...
A split second to lift her hand...
A split second to fire!
Elsa stood rooted to the spot, paralyzed, as she watched a telekinetic pulse discharge from Anna's hand, straight at her.
She didn't have enough time to react, or even think, as the telekinetic pulse struck her. It felt like a brick wall had smashed into her as she was thrown back, across the courtyard, before being smashed against the wall violently, and then crumpling to the ground. Only the sounds of Agdar and Idun's screams ringing through the air, Pabbie staring in utter shock.
"NO!" Kristoff screamed in horror, fearing the worst, as he raced over to Elsa's unmoving form. Kristoff saw several trickles of blood running down from her hairline as he skid to a stop next to her and knelt down. He placed his fingers on her neck and felt for a pulse, his eyes widening when he felt nothing. Elsa's chest was not rising or falling either, and Kristoff immediately knew, that his worst fears had been confirmed. And with that, he collapsed to the ground, shaking, as he looked back at Anna.
Anna barely had enough energy to look up at him, before she collapsed to the ground unconscious, the skies darkening, and rain falling around them all.
Anna wasn't sure how long she had been out as she slowly sat up and groaned. She opened her eyes but was met by nothing but dark blurriness. She allowed her eyes to adjust to the darkness for several seconds, before she shook her head to clear the dizziness. She looked around and realized that she was in a dungeon cell.
"No!" Anna gasped as she jumped up and ran to the door, but was stopped as she was pulled back. She turned around and saw that her hands were in shackles, and chained to the wall.
She whisked back around as she heard footsteps emerging from outside the door.
"Princess Anna?" A soft voice called through the door. "Are you awake? I'm coming in."
"No!" Anna screamed. "Please stay away! I'm dangerous!"
She retreated back to the corner and held her hands up to her chest, as she had sister do on her coronation, as the door unlocked and swung open. She immediately identified the person, from what he was wearing, as one of the southern island princes.
"Princess Anna?" Alexander said softly as he slowly moved towards her.
"No! Stay away!"
"I'm not going to hurt you!" The prince said as he stated pitifully at her.
"I...I wanna see my sister!" Anna demanded. The prince bit his bottom lip upon hearing the mention of queen Elsa, and this did not go unnoticed by Anna. "Where's Elsa? Where's my sister?!"
"I..." The words stuck in his throat as he looked at the, already broken, princess.
"What happened to my sister? WHERE IS SHE?!" Anna screamed.
"I...Anna...I...I'm so sorry."
Anna's eyes widened as she heard this, but she refused to believe it.
"No. WHERE'S ELSA?!"
"I'm so sorry. You're...you're sister...is...dead."
And with that, Anna felt her world crumble around her as she collapsed to the ground...
...and screamed.
Well...er...this chapter definitely had more action than the last two...but...um...
I am so sorry...about Elsa. I mean, do you know hard it was for me to kill my favorite character from Frozen?! F**cking hard!
Anyway...the next chapter will be the last one for this story (not the one shot series). Also, I never stated that every one shot will have a happy ending, as proven by the "Alone again" and "Mr. Giggles" one shots.
Also, for those who haven't noticed, most of these one shots aren't interconnected. Some could be AU's of AU's of AU's.
Well, that's it for today. Read and review if you can. It'll help me get the next chapter up faster.
