"Did you see what attacked you?" Elsa put the ice away when the doctor came into the room and gave him the space to examine her.

"It was arround... this big" indicated Anna with her hand."Yes, just a little bigger than my hand." went the sister on as she tilted her side of her head so the doctor could take a better look at her bite wound.

"See or heard anything strange before that?" asked Hans this time.

"No..." said Anna as an immediate reaction. Her face frowned deeply as she thought back to that moment. "Well, there was like... a noise." the princess put a string of hair behind her ear out of nervosity, not quite knowing how to explain what she heard. "Not human, not animal.. something inbetween"

Well, that didn't help much. "And how did that thing sound?" tried the prince to get more information.

"Is it really necessary to ask her now?" snapped Kristoff annoyed by his questions when Anna began to uncomfortably shift on her chair. "Its the last she wants to think about."

"Its all the more reason to ask her at this very moment when its still fresh in her mind." said Hans with equal irritation back.

"Kristoff its fine."

"But-"

"Its fine." emphasized the princess on the last word to make an end to the dispute. "It was like... that thing was laughing, no... giggling" corrected Anna herself when she found a better word.

"In a high squeaking voice?"

"Yes!"

"Your highness can you keep still-" asked the doctor when Anna moved her head enthousiastically.

"Oh. Sorry."

"Well, it could be a rat." theorized Hans his thoughts out loud.

"Me and my servants checked the traps only yesterday, your majesty." spoke Gerda her opinion on the matter.

"Well, perhaps it slipped through-" Hans clapped his mouth shut when he saw Gerda's ice cold stare at him.

"I agree with miss Gerda" everyone's attention turned back to the doctor. "Its not a bite from a rat. the teeth are... well, like Princess Anna put it to words, not human and not... animal like." the man sighed, feeling frustrated for not being able to aid more.

"Well, whatever it is, its clearly dangerous. We'll put extra guards near the kitchens and we shift the night rounds" spoke the queen this time.

"It won't help if its as little as a hand." noted Kristoff. "It could just walk under the guard's noses, so- where are you going?" asked the ice harvester when Hans walked out of the room.

"Paying a visit to that haunted kitchen of ours."

"Oh for the love of- what do you think that will accomplish?" asked Elsa as she stood up from her chair, making Hans pause in the doorway.

"Well, that thing apparently loves the taste of human meat-" nodded Hans to Elsa's sister.
"Hey!" cried Anna offended out.
"-so We simply give it what it wants." went the prince on. "No listen. We don't know what or how intelligent it is, but its small and can nearly go anywhere in the castle at night. What if it goes into the chambers of the servants? Our chambers? or in Gerda's room?" Damn. He shouldn't have brought THAT hypothesis up yet.

"Like HELL that thing is going to hurt my baby!" bit Anna out as she stormed past Hans and Elsa.

"Anna wait up!"

The princess didn't listen at all to her sister's shoutout and took a ceremonial sword out of the put-up soldiers on the hall.

"Anna!" When her second attempt didn't work, the queen let ice appear on the floor causing her sister to fall on her back.

"Elsa, don't you dare to try and persuade me otherwise!"

"I'm not. I just don't want you to go alone in this." retorted the queen as she helped her dazed, but not yet calmed down sister up.


"Do we really need to do it all sneaky?" hissed Anna into Hans' ear, causing him to glance irritated to his sister in law. "We could just barge in and-"

"lose the element of surprise that's what." whispered Hans a bit harder than necessary back as Kai slowly undid the lock - the man knew the kitchen like the back of his hand and knew when said door would crack due to old age, giving their position away.
The trio slowly made their way into the huge kitchen room through the slight door opening and let their eyes adjust to the darkness. With their heartbeat beating in their ears the trio went on and listened for anything abnormal when Anna indicated they were where she had been attacked.

Nothing... nothing... there! Hans let a flame appear on his hand to provide them light as he, Anna and Kai turned arround."What the-" Hans let his hand slightly move downwards when he saw the little snowgie standing there. How did it get here off all places?

"ooooh" cooed Anna when she saw the little guy squirm in the light that Hans provided. "Hans, could you turn it down a bit? its clearly bright-sensitive."

"Since when?" frowned Hans, not at all extinguishing the flame as he was ordered to. It was certainly behaving odd, that was for sure. It was like... having some sort of seizure?

"Come here, little guy. Come here" went Anna on in the same sweet voice. "That's it!" smiled the princess as the snowgie waggled towards her. It smiled without opening its mouth to them, but the vibe it gave off was not so friendly. Anna felt it too and her hand slightly withdrew. "Ehh..."Suddenly its mouth opened and revealed teeth as long as and sharp as needles before jumping on them. The princess backed away when fire made her eyes sting from the warmth, reducing the little guy to ash. "What.. what was THAT?" freaked the princess out with shaking arms.

"A snowgie." replied Hans, although his voice betrayed his slight shock from the so sudden transformation of the little snow creature. "Sort of."

"Sort off? That thing wanted to rip my throat out!"

"He's not going to be the first."

"Excuse me?" asked Anna offended to her brother in law. Her gaze followed his, to see snowgies on the kitchen table whom were staring at the puddle of water that Hans had created. Their eyes slowly turned to Hans.

"We... should run." said the prince as he saw more of appearing every second.

"Just because one of them is bad, doesn't mean they're all like that." spoke Kai up this time to keep themselves calm.

The snowgies smiled all simultaniously at Kai's words, with that same creepy look as the first one did. "Right. RUN!"

So... yeah. Inspired by "the Gremlins". While they are adorable, just like Marshmallow they should have a dark side too isn't it? Also, in this fic, Anna has a little baby daughter named after the old servant lady Gerda.
