Frozen II prompt: When Anna and Olaf went down the fall, what if Anna was then unconscious but was rescued by the Enchanted forest people or one of the Elementals?
Her head hurt like she had been standing in the sun all day, only she knew that the real reason of her pain was way less pleasant than that. She opened her eyes and closed them at the sudden sunlight after going so deep underwater. Anna slowly opened her eyelids and realized she was laying down.
She then realized where she was, and her eyes opened fully in panic. She sat up quickly, which was the worst idea, the pain in her head doubling in the process. She moaned and held her forehead with her hand.
"Woaw, woaw, slowly. Take it easy."
A man was standing next to her, looking at her with a worried face. His hair was the same color of the trees behind him, and Anna's vision was still blurred, so she struggled to see his face.
"Wha… Wha' happen'd…" Tried to say Anna, her head sending waves of pain.
"Relax. You need to stay still. You're hurt."
The redhead looked around her, and her eyes went wide when she figured out that she was on what looked like a bed base… Made out of wood. She thought at first that it had been carved, but it was odd to do such a thing in the middle of the forest. Anna looked closer at the way it was made, its lines and its curves. And she instantly knew that it hadn't been done manually. It was…
"Magic!" She whispered in an admirative sigh.
She passed her hand along the frame.
"Oh, yes, uhm, about that…" Started the person, wanting to explain himself.
However Anna wasn't listening. Her brain quickly switched to panic mode after saying the word 'magic'.
"Elsa!"
She swayed her legs on the side to stand up, already on her way to go search for her sister. Though obviously, her head was heavy again and she lost her balance, comically falling head first on the grass.
"Ouch!"
"Hey, what are you doing?" Exclaimed the man. "You need to rest. You got a commotion, remember? …Well, you probably don't. But you need to keep still."
He helped her sit back on the bed made of wood, but she refused.
"I need to find my sister. And Olaf."
"You should rest."
After a groaned, Anna finally consented, mostly because her head did hurt like hell, and she almost fell again, caught in time by the man. In the way the stranger moved, softly held her shoulders to sit down, and sat next to her, something felt familiar, but she couldn't put the finger on it. And too many other questions were already twirling in her mind to allow this one to come out first.
"Where am I? What is this place? What happened? Is this bed frame made out of magic?"
The man looked confused by her questions and amused by her energy, despite her state. He chuckled softly. Another thing that Anna found familiar, but she blinked and rather chose to focus on his answers.
"In sequence, you're in the eastern forest. This place is, well, a forest. And I suppose that you fell from the waterfall a few miles south and hit your heat on a rock underwater. I found you unconscious on the shore as I was… Chopping wood."
Anna nodded, understanding. "Wait, what?" She briskly exclaimed. "A few miles?"
"The current is very strong."
The redhead nodded again, and immediately regretted that, holding her head with another groan. "Gosh, that rock was mean… Hey, you haven't answered my last question. Are you… Do you have magic? This bed has been crafted with magic."
She smiled for the first time since they met, and he saw some excitement in her bright teal blue eyes. However, he refused to tell the truth.
"No, I told you, I was chopping wood."
It was obvious that he rehearsed that sentence before she woke up just in case she would ask, and Anna was clever and gave him an amused face full of sarcasm.
"You don't need to lie. I know magic when I see it. Elsa, my sister, she makes those kind of magic sculptures all the time. This is way too detailed to be carved."
He looked panicked at how fast she unveiled his secret, so she smiled and added some humor.
"As much as I enjoy the comfort of it and the act of building me a bed frame, I doubt that you did it by the time I woke up. Last memory I have before my fall into the water was in bright day, and now the sun isn't even set. You couldn't possibly have done it in such a short time."
The man stared at her with fascination. "You're really smart."
Anna smiled at the compliment, a hint of pride on her face. "So…?"
He sighed, and admitted the truth, but only because he knew that they were alone in the area. "Yes, I'm an Elemental."
"A what?"
"An Elemental", he repeated, slower.
"Yeah, I actually heard, but… Does it have something to do with elements? Oh wait, like, NATURE elements? Is yours EARTH?"
She jumped on the frame with joy.
"Uhm, yes."
There was a blank, and he was so confused.
"How were you able to guess this quickly? Wait, this sister of yours…"
Now he shared her excitement, his eyes glistening as well. "…Does she have Earth magic too?"
"No, ice and snow, actually. But you two have magic linked to Nature! This is amazing! Oh, you have tomeet each other!" She clapped her hands.
He couldn't believe his ears, and jaw-dropped. "This is incredible."
"I knooow!" Giggled Anna like a child, her legs happily jolting.
As she did, she felt something in her boot that moved, and her cry of joy switched to a cry of disgust. She thought that an eel or something had entered into her shoe, and she quickly took it off and shook it to make the thing go out.
They both carefully looked at what it was, and it actually was just a twig. But then, the twig moved, like a snake spasming on the grass, and they jumped in surprise.
"Are you making it move?" They asked, looking at each other.
"No, I'm not!" Answered the man. "Why didn't you tell me you have Earth magic as well?"
"I don't!" Assured Anna. Then she had a closer look and understood what the twig was. "Wait…"
The little fingers of the arm struggled to turn it, so she rushed to grab it in her hands. "OLAF! He's alive!"
The stranger stared at her with dismay.
"This is a twig. You just named… a twig."
"He's trying to tell me something!" Smiled Anna as Olaf's arm was moving.
"You're talking to a twig."
Anna turned to him. "Oh, come on, don't pretend that you never did it, mister Earth magic."
He got offended and laughed at the same time.
"Come on!" Said Anna as she stood up. "We need to follow his instructions. He's showing us where his body is."
"Alright" was the only word he could say before following the excited redhead along the strand.
