Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Frozen Flame enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own Frozen; Disney and a few others do.
(Pyram's Flagship, Ember.)
Pyram awoke with his guards surrounding him and the ship doctor: Henry Herrod.
Elsa looked at the wounded king as he looked at the man who just finished dealing with the wound.
"Don't move, your highness. I'm still… Never mind, the round grazed you, but it might scar." Pyram heard from the doctor as he frowned and looked to the man.
"What happened?" Pyram looked at his bare wound and didn't notice the blush from Elsa, she wasn't used to sights like that.
"You, Queen Elsa and a contingent of your personal guards attacked the shipyards of Mer and damaged them heavily. You were shot and a few guards were killed, we believe their bodies were consumed in the fires of the battle." Henry said before he looked at Elsa as the King slowly pulled himself to his feet.
Pyram rubbed at his head and noted his armor wasn't on. He sighed and noted that he was the only one still in the doctor ward.
"I'm guessing I shouldn't end up asking if any of the wounded survived or not?" Elsa walked over towards him. he sighed with annoyance and shook his head.
"Pyram. The others got sent to the kingdom for healing. You got sent to the ship so nobody could attack you and we'd keep things mobile… There was a pair of frigates that nearly attacked the Ember before the cities' cannons took them down." Elsa said before Pyram started to done his armor once again.
"Then we need to return to Ignis… I already suspect the Generals are going to have a field day with the fact that the king of the entire kingdom took it upon himself to go and fight in the war…" Pyram turned and felt where the bullet had grazed him.
"This armor is made out of Obsidian Steel. A bullet should shatter like glass striking it… What in the name of the Phoenix could do such a thing?" Pyram asked while one of the soldiers walked up to him.
Pyram held out his hand to assure the man he would be fine.
"I'm not dead and if I'm not dead, then that means I still have a war to finish… We have to get back before General Horace tries to say we should use the advantage to strike Mer again. I refuse to destroy the kingdom even if we have reinforcements on the way…." Pyram turned to Elsa and blinked before feeling his side.
"It's cold… Did you?" She nodded and Pyram hummed before smiling.
"Then I thank you for helping me not die." Pyram said before he turned to the others.
"I want us back in Ignis and nobody is to tell them of the raid on the shipyards. I know that I am hurt and I know a few of you want me going to have bedrest… I will sleep, eat and handle things as I always have. I told you all that as long as things are going on like this? We handle thing soft and delicately… Since the entire raid was the opposite? We handle this a lot like we would handle a diplomatic meeting… With a dagger in one hand and… Well a dagger right now is all we have." He snarked before his staff left.
"I find myself continuing to thank you, Queen of Arendelle… Then again, I do have to point out the fact that I never wish to follow one of those crazy ideas again considering it got me shot… But it was a good idea somewhere down the line." He turned and walked out of the room.
"You really should rest though." Pyram heard from Elsa as he turned his head to look over his shoulder at the Queen and sighed.
"I can't. I have a kingdom to run, I don't plan on fighting which means I'll be able to do things as long as I don't strain myself… And I don't plan on doing that at all… I can't allow things to carry on without me. I have a war hungry general who plans on destroying the kingdom and throwing countless lives away if I don't continue to stop him." Pyram sighed and put a hand to his side and grunted.
"This doesn't hurt enough to send me passing out again, so it doesn't hurt enough to get me to back down. I don't have much else to do anyway… I'm going to have to get back to work or people won't respect me as the king…" He stopped and looked at Elsa through his helmet.
"I don't want to go back to work… But the general won't listen to me, I have a full-blown war on my hands to deal with and if I don't stop it? I'm going to have soldiers rebelling against me trying to do something that will only make things worse." Pyram stated before he turned and walked away.
