Authors note: Thank you for all the reviews.:)
Oh also by offering their crowns their not offering Agnaar their kingdoms, but giving him their crowns is an action that is considered shocking as crowns are a symbol of high rank and power, so if at that time somebody did a similar offering the offered would have been accepted immediately.
Any way, hope you all enjoy the chapter and please review when done. It helps my story and such.
Arendelle port:
A stand off was done as Irene and Hans both stood, Irene with her arms up, her eyes between showing how impressed she was and how she was afraid, while Hans held her at sword point, his eyes reflecting rage and disgust at her.
Ignoring the warning signs Irene said "I always did liked it when my servants had spirits" she moved and managed to force a kiss on Hans only for him to swing his sword at her, cutting her cheek before pushing her down to the ground.
She stared at him incredulous as he pressed his sword against her chest, after whipping his mouth in disgust Hans spit before saying "You made a mistake Madam, you see you have nothing to use against me, nothing to make me behave like Valhalla, Runi and Rudo did who would use my love ones to keep me in line, because of that I can act however I please...it also does not help you that I am an excellent swordsman who learned well from his father and uncle...as an admiral I put them to good use against pirates and all sorts of fiends" as he spoke he slowly backed away from Irene, making his way out of the boat.
"Are they good enough to go against my royal guards?" said Irene as she smirked, turning Hans cursed as he saw the guards already there, blocking the exit,
"I can forget this happened...as long as you do as I say" said Irene,
"Like I said, I'd rather starve" growled Hans before he acted quick and ran, his brothers slithering/running/flying behind him, the guards gave chase,
"After him!" yelled Irene as Hans ran even fought off some guards, but there were just too many, his brothers helped their best, but in their animal state there was little they could do.
Disarming a guard Hans back away as he was placed in a corner, nowhere to go but to fall into the icy waters of the fjord.
Turning Hans was going to try and force his way through the guards only to have the hilt of the sword hit Hans, hold his forehead as he back away, his head racked with pain, the next thing he knew he fell overboard and into the icy sea water.
Hans felt his muscles freeze up, then twitch, they refused to move as he desperately tried to reach the surface for a moment before he gathered himself and rose to the surface for some breath, all around him his reptile brothers fell as they had jumped after him.
Gathering them Hans swam with great difficulty to the port which was thankfully close by. Gripping the wooden planks Hans coughed and gagged as he struggled before pulling himself up to the port and laying on his back, trying to catch his breath.
All around his brothers rested, exhausted from the ordeal.
Recovering enough Hans rose into a sitting up position before looking at them and saying "Thank you for the help", Richard moved his tail exhausted as if saying "No problem".
Turning Hans got back up on his feet, gathered his brothers before he turned to make his way back to Arendelle before Irene decided to go after him and make true to her threat of hanging him.
But just as he began to walk he stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Agnaar ride into the port with a small army of guards behind him, for a moment Hans and his brothers grew afraid as they all began to think that maybe Agnaar decided to personally make sure that Hans was never seen again in Arendelle.
Stopping Agnaar got off of his horse, Hans back away slowly as he placed his brothers on the ground and held out his sword, ready to defend himself if needed.
Sensing that Agnaar raised his arms up to show he meant no harm before said "I did not come to fight, I...came to rescue you...but it seems that you rescued yourself",
"Horse shit!" growled Hans not believing a word of what Agnaar saying,
"Please...let me speak" said Agnaar.
The reptile and bird brothers glared, even Hans did as spoke "Why? You did not let me speak before you send me away", the king looked down and sighted "Are right...I am a king...I was supposed to listen to my subjects...all that they have to say...listen to all points of view before making a decision",
"Yes..." said Hans as he gathered his brothers again then turned to move away as he decided he had had enough of Agnaars conversation and presence,
"Wait...I need you to come with me..." said Agnaar as he walked after him,
"Why? I am just a 'lying servant'..." said Hans bitterly,
"I was wrong, I was a fool to listen to the three...I should have given you a chance to express your point of view...I should have listen to my daughter...Hans please" said Agnaar, Hans stopped dead in his tracks before he turned to face Agnaar "What?",
"I am sorry Hans..." said Agnaar as he walked over, reaching into a bag he had he took out the glove Hans had lost and said "If you remain angry, if you want me to be punished its alright...but please...my daughter wants you and only you...don't leave her for it will hurt her and she has already been hurt enough by me...",
Hans said nothing, as he though, so Agnaar continued "I give you my blessing to marry my Elsa...all I ask of you...is to give her all the love she deserves".
Turning Hans nodded and said "Thank you your highness...you have my word",
"Call me Agnaar...for we are equals...all of us" said Agnaar as he motioned them to follow, Hans did, with his brothers who stared at with suspicion even made threats by trying to bite Agnaar in case he did anything as they walked back to the palace instead of going by horse.
Arendelle Palace:
Elsa listened to Karen, who brought Thumbelina who further confirmed the story, plus shocked everybody with her height which was hence her name no bigger than a thumb.
Suddenly there was frantic knocking, looking she, Anna, Rapunzel, Eugene, Arianna, Frederik and the rest looked as Kai and Gerda burst through the door, looking all happy and exited,
"My lady,my lady, he is found, your father brought Ross Red" said Kay and Gerda at the same time,
"Ross Red?" they all echoed before they ran out of the room, the servants smiled before they followed them to outside, to the front of the palace where they saw the gates open, walking in was Agnaar with some guards and..
"Ross?" said Elsa as she smiled before walking over to the auburn man, stopping in front he smiled a bit and said "Elsa",
"Hans" said Elsa, it felt good to call each other by their real names,
"Ya...well..." said Hans as he wondered what to say, everything he said over and over in his mind to tell her vanished because of his nervousness.
"First...I would like to find the owner of the glove which was found" said Elsa as she took out the glove she had in her hidden pocket,
"Yes...but..I don't know if it will still fit a dusty servant like me" said Hans honestly,
"I am sure it will...and your not a dusty servant...your the man I love..." said Elsa as she gave it to him, taking it Hans held it and said "If it fits...I promise to love you for you",
"I promise the same, now please..the glove" said Elsa with a small smile.
Smiling back a bit Hans moved the glove, putting it on, it slipped on easy, fitting his hand perfectly, like a second skin, looking up Hans reached into his pocket and took out the second glove before slipping it on, proving his identity.
Taking his hands Elsa said "You asked me to marry you before...now I ask you...will you marry me?",
"Yes" said Hans, then froze a bit when Elsa jumped and latched unto him, he held unto her, kissing her while the rest awed and cheered, mostly Anna who jumped and began to hug and kiss Kristoff, happy for her sister.
Smiling a bit Agnaar left the two alone before walking over to Anna and kristoff, noticing him the two stopped, Kristoff looked at him wary while Anna glared at him.
"Anna" began Agnaar,
"Your highness" growled Anna, looking down Agnaar closed his eyes, letting a few tears fall before saying "I am sorry...I miss you my daughter...so much"
Annas glare broke as she stared in disbelieve at what she was hearing,
"Will you forgive your foolish father?...Let me be part of your life?" asked Agnaar almost begging, Anna though then said "Alright, but not without conditions", Agnaar smiled and said "Yes, whatever it takes for you to come back", Anna smiled, that was exactly what she wanted to hear as now they had just one more thing to deal with.
Manor:
Sitting down Valhalla, Rudi and Runo were having breakfast, on their table they had the most sumptuous meal prepared which consisted of fish, bread, eggs, butter, cheese and many other fine things. The occasion for the feast? The end of their worries.
With Hans out of the way and Agnaar believing them to be the "saviors" of his daughter by "telling him" of the "horrible Ross Red/Hans" they were sure it was only a matter of time before they could extract a favor from Agnaar. Maybe have him help them reclaim the Southern isles or making his daughter marry one of her sons or even better, both.
"Guess Asher was of use to us after all" said Rudi as he took and ate the fish on his plate,
"Ya, thanks to him we are close to getting everything on a silver platter...knowing that kind of makes me feel sad for having him to leave" said Runo faking sadness,
"Think Queen Irene will treat him well?" asked Rudi,
"Who cares? He already used up his usefulness" said Valhalla as she sipped her wine then added "He never meant anything to me either way",
"Rightly said mother,
I find it disgusting how he even though of trying to reach above his station" said Runo,
"Oh well, he got what he deserved in the end" said Rudi as he nodded in agreement to what Runo said.
Then before they could finish their meal there was a knock on the door, "Get the door" barked Valhalla to their new servant, nodding meekly the servant girl left then came back a couple of minutes later and said "Its a servant from the Arendelle palace named Kai, he is waiting outside with a coach as the King of Arendelle asked for you three",
"Hum, he asked for us...why?" asked Valhalla barely able to conceal how pleased she was to hear that.
"He said that the King of Arendelle is pleased for your actions and wants to reward you justly for what you did" said the servant girl.
The three looked at one another before Runi said "What are you waiting for? Get our things ready!", nodding meekly the servant left as fast as she could to do what she was told.
Arendelle palace:
Standing Hans moved his hands a bit as he got used to his new clothes, it consisted of a dark blue almost black coat with red trims along the edges and gold leaf like designs around the cuffs of the sleeve of his coat, black pants and shoes.
It felt odd to be wearing so much finery after going without it, not even while working for Frederik, Arianna, Rapunzel and Eugene he wore such fineries, even the ones he wore during the ball were not nearly as fine...or maybe it was because the ones he was wearing now were real.
"Maybe" though Hans as he ran his hand through the coat then his hair out of nervousness before he heard the door open, looking he smiled a bit seeing it was Eugene and Frederik,
"Well..well...future mister consort to the queen of Arendelle" said Eugene joking,
"Eugene" said Hans crossing his arms,
"Kidding, kidding" said Eugene then huffed "Your no fun",
"And that is why I was your advisor" chuckled Hans,
"Alright will give that to you" said Eugene raising his hands up in defeat then added "Its a shame that you will no longer be our advisor",
"That is a real shame, you worked miracles on Eugene" said Frederik as he chuckled at the joke,
"Hey! I was not that bad" said Eugene before the three of them laughed.
"Now that I think of it, since you married Rapunzels cousin it makes us family" said Eugene,
"I always though I was family to you" said Hans faking that he was hurt,
"You always were, now we can look at one another freely as equals" said Frederik then though and added "But your missing something".
Both Hans and Eugene looked confused, what was missing? Frederik just gave a smile before reaching, taking his crown off then placing it gently on Hans head, it was gold with some jewels decorating it, surprisingly it was light on his head yet felt strange having it on.
"There" said Frederik then added "It suits you nicely",
"Uncle Frederik, I can't" said Hans as he made a movement to take it off but was stopped by Frederiks hand,
"Yes you can, think of it as an early wedding present" said Frederik then added "I have a new one waiting for me back in Corona", Hans and Eugene chuckled at that when they saw a councilman enter.
Silently he nodded before motioning them to leave,
"We have to go...we will meet back here later" said Frederik,
"Yes...we have some...trash to take care off" said Eugene hissing before the two left.
Staring suspiciously Hans wondered why he had to stay before deciding to follow the two to figure out what was happening.
Entering the throne room Valhalla, Rudi and Runo walked in, glowing with victory as they walked pass all the lords, ladies, barons, baronesses and all other forms of aristocrats as they made their way to Agnaar and Elsa.
The nobles and such gave them weird looks and even glares which they ignore as they were sure that they were like that because they were jealous of whatever reward they were going to receive from Agnaar.
"Maybe its that he will have me marry the princess" though both Rudi and Runo as they stopped when they were in front of the royal two then bow down.
"Ex-Queen Valhalla of the Southern isles, Prince Rudo and Rudi Westergaar" she heard they rose and stared at the king of Arendelle before noticing the look on his face...it was not a good one...
"Did you or did you not..Lie to me the king of Arendelle" said Agnaar, upon hearing those words the smiled and happiness faded away to terror and fear as Valhalla somehow still composed looked and said "Pardon me Agnaar",
"Very careful Valhalla, your threading on thin ice as it is" warned Elsa,
"I am sorry, but I don't know what you are talking about" said Valhalla playing dumb,
"THEIR LYING!" shouted a voice from among the nobles, Valhalla, Rudi and Runo turned to glare at whoever spoke but could not see who. Hiding among the nobles Karen smiked while Rothbart said "Do you always speak your mind?",
"Of course, that's what makes me me" said Karen,
"A very admirable quality" said Rothbart as they watched the events unfold.
"Really? Then judge Arthur, my most trusted judge is lying about you performing slavery in Arendelle where it is illegal to keep slaves" said Elsa as she gripped her hands in anger, yet somehow she still managed to keep her ice magic in check.
"People say things to incriminate others" said Valhalla,
"Yes, that judge was bribed" said Rudi,
"Oh then is my sister a liar too?" said Elsa hissing "She witness you and your brother assaulting her, her husband to be and an innocent for no reason other than to cause pain",
"Sister?" the two though as they stared at the strawberry blond haired woman who smirked, at first they did not recognize her till they realized that if she had black hair she would be that pheasant girl dress maker that they had known.
"Your sister always was...always fantasying through her life" said Valhalla,
"I have had enough of you, you and your sons are as intolerable and evil as people have said" said Agnaar having enough of the three, Valhalla, Rudi and Runo remained quiet even more when Agnaar spoke again "For your crimes you Valhalla and your awful sons will be sent back to Southern isles for you all to be hanged for all the crimes committed by all of you..." pausing he breathed before saying "That will be my decision...unless by some miracle...somebody here in this room will speak for the three of you".
Slowly backing away Valhalla's cold and indifferent mask broke as she looked around the people gathered there, they all stared at them with satisfied smirks and arms crossed, not one of them made a move to speak for them.
"Mother" said Rudi, for the first time fearing for his life as he realized they were not as untouchable as he had once though.
"Ha...seems we are missing a lot of people" said Valhalla faltering as time went on and the silence persisted, the more it passed the more fear they felt as they were sure that their doom they would meet soon.
That was till a voice broke through the silence,
"I will speak for them" he said making Valhalla, Rudo and Runi freeze,
"That voice" the three though as they recognized it, but at the same time refused to believe it belong to the same person they though it belonged to, all around them the gathering nobles bow or curtsied.
Slowly the three gathered their nerves as they turned around to face the person who had entered the room...who was going to speak on their behalf... as they did they heard Elsa speak "Valhalla...Rudi...Runo...I believe you have yet to meet...my husband to be".
To be continued...
Authors note: This is going to get goooooooodddddd.
