While Sora is travelling up the mountains, he has just encountered Winterhorns, Frost Avalanches, Howling Ices along with their Alpha counterpart, and Glacial Constructs. Sora noticed that the ice Heartlesses are becoming more abundant.
"Ugh, I don't have time for this." Sora slashed any Heartlesses that gets in his way "Get out of my way!"
Back with the group, Donald and Goofy has just eradicated a couple of Heartlesses that stood in their way and now entered into a Valley of Rocks
"So, about my friends...well, I say friends, they're more like family... Anyway, when I was a kid, it was just me and Sven...until they took me in." Kristoff nervously explained
"They did?" Anna asked in disbelief.
"Yeah. I don't want to scare you, they can be a little bit inappropriate...and loud...very lou-"
"Just get on with it!" Donald loudly interrupted.
"O-okay then, met my family." Kristoff greets them to...a bunch of rocks?
Everyone jaw drops at Kristoff's comment as he watch him greeting to the non-living rocks.
"Gosh do you think that Kristoff is so lonely that he imagines the rocks as a friend?" Goofy whispered to Donald
"Hehehehe, maybe I can create another rock and he will still talk to it like an insane maniac hehehehehe." Donald slyly replied.
"Donald! Don't speak to Kristoff like that!" Anna defended Kristoff from Donald's comment.
"What I'm not saying anything." Donald tries to implausibly deny his comment.
"Yes you did, I can right through my ear that talked as if he is a crazy guy." Anna doesn't buy it. "Maybe there's a reason for it all."
"Don't worry, I'll distract them while you guys run away." Olaf offered to the group while proceeding to introduce himself to the rocks "Hi, Sven's family! It's nice to meet you! My name is Olaf!" Olaf whispered at the group "Why aren't you guys running?" Olaf continues to converse to the rocks "And I like warm hugs! I understand that you're the love experts."
Before the group contemplates on leaving, the rocks suddenly come to life in the form of trolls.
"Kristoff's home!" One of the trolls exclaimed.
"Kristoff's home. Wait? Kristoff?" Olaf having realized human Sven's real name.
"Great to see you all. Where's grandpa?" Kristoff asked the trolls.
"Grandpa? Grand Pabbie Kristoff's home!" Another troll calls out to Grand Pabbie.
"They're trolls? I dreamt that I was kissed by one." Anna commented on them.
"Is that a girl he brought?" One of the trolls said but just as they are about to show their excitement, Grand Pabbie arrives at the scene.
"There's strange magic here!" The old troll has just arrived.
"Grand Pabbie!" Kristoff said.
"Bring her to me, Kristoff." Donald and Goofy brings Anna to them "Anna, your life is in danger. There is ice in your heart, put there by your sister. If not removed, you will freeze to solid ice, forever." Grand Pabbie said to Anna.
"What...? No." Anna shocked at this.
Kristoff said to him "So remove it, Grand Pabbie."
"I can't. If it was her head, that would be easy. But only an act of true love can thaw a frozen heart."
"An act of true love?" Anna deduced that it must be a kiss from her true love.
"You know, I have the feeling that you dealt with this problem before, I mean you knew the princess by name and knows that it her big sister the one who struck her in the heart. Nobody here seems to tell you that the ice here is caused by the queen so you must know about it yourself." Goofy commented about this and Anna begins to realize that the trolls know a lot more about Elsa's powers then they let on, feeling a surge of anger at being left out. They knew about Elsa's powers and they didn't tell more about it?
"I have…dealt with this before." Grand Pabbie vaguely replied.
"THEN TELL ME ABOUT IT!" Everyone is shocked at Anna's sudden outburst "TELL ME EVERYTHING YOU KNOW ABOUT ELSA'S POWER YOU OLD ROCK! HOW DID SHE GET THESE POWERS?! WHY IS SHE SHUTTING ME AND EVERYONE OUT?! WHY IS SHE AFRAID OF HER OWN POWERS?!" Donald, Goofy, and Kristoff make a mental note to never get on Anna's bad side. "Oh man she's really scary when she's angry" Kristoff thought.
"Some truths are too much to be-"
"DON'T GIVE ME THAT EXCUSE! YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE BEING SHUTTED OUT!" Anna shivers after the outburst but Donald use his fire spell to keep her warm but she continues to glare at the troll.
Donald and Goofy makes sad faces and looks on as Pabbie reluctantly relents and tells her truth
"Your sister has these powers ever since she was born. Back then, you two used to play together with Elsa's ice powers. But then one day, during a nighttime excursion, your sister struck accidentally struck in the head with her powers." The group, especially Anna gasp in shock "And that is when the previous king and queen sought out our help. I removed the ice powers and the memories of your sister's magic to ensure that you will be recover and it is then I inform them how fear would be her greatest enemy. I then showed her a vision that If her powers are not properly controlled, then she will be assaulted by angry mobs. Based on the state of the castle after this incident, it seems that the king and queen order the gates closed to make sure nobody gets harmed by your sister's powers. And that is the last time we ever heard of the royal family until now. Judging by the ice in your heart, it seems that whatever your parents did ended up making the situation worse."
"That incident is also how I got adopted by the trolls in the first place." Kristoff unnecessarily commented
Anna processed the information together and then…
"Why Grand Pabbie?" Anna asked to Grand Pabbie while the latter said nothing but seem to look ashamed of himself.
"Why did you show that vision in the first place if you told her that fear will become her worst enemy?! And why did you made me forget that I knew about Elsa's powers in the first place?! Do you know how it hurts to be shut out without even knowing why she did it?!" Anna angrily calls the trolls for what they did to her and her sister "Elsa sees herself as monster because you made Elsa believe that she should fear other people! Because her parents fear her powers! I'm not going to let my sister trapped into her own fears anymore! Once I remove the ice within my heart, I will go back to the Ice Castle and fix the mistakes that you and my parents made on my sister!" Anna struggles for a bit before regaining her bearing and walks away from the utterly speechless trolls. "Let's go back to the kingdom everyone. I need a kiss from Hans to thaw my frozen heart." The others have one last look of sadness at the trolls before they walk with her Kristoff bringing Anna to Sven while Donald and Goofy runs along with them and Olaf slides down.
"Wow Anna, I never thought that you it in you. Maybe we should play a shouting game sometime after summer." Olaf said to Anna, oblivious to the somber mood around them.
Anna tries to lash out but stops herself when she realized that Olaf doesn't know better and decides to fake a smile at him. "Sure Olaf, we could play a game of shouting some time after this, after all I did practiced screaming at other people." Anna lied to Olaf about a new game. She convince herself that she doesn't want to see the snowman sad.
"Oh boy that would be great, let's go kiss Hans! Wait, who is this Hans?"
Meanwhile, right outside the Ice Castle Hans and the other guards are preparing themselves to enter the castle.
"We are here to find Princess Anna. Be on guard, but no harm is to come to the Queen. Do you understand?" Hans then uses his dark powers to summon Heartlesses and Nobodies to pursue the queen but they're swatted aside by the seemingly conspicuous Ice Golem.
"Go away!" Marshmallow shouted while trying to toss Hans and the others aside which he dodges but two of Weselton's guards took the opportunity to sneak in on the queen on the Ice Castle. Hans proceeds to channel his dark powers and struck Marshmallow, causing him to groan in pain and knock him unconscious. Hans then heads inside the castle where two Weaseltown's guards came through. Just as the others try to follow, several Ninja Nobodies intercepts them.
"Sorry, can't have you guys interrupt our little party. I highly doubt the prince would care anyway if some people are lost so do as you please with these pile of junks." Larxene orders the Nobodies to attack them and one of the guards just got stabbed with a Kunai...
Back in the Ice Castle, Elsa tries to fight off a group of Ninja Nobodies and Howling Ice Heartlesses that surrounded her by striking any that comes close to her while conjuring an ice wall to block their attacks, it seemed to go well but as more and more of these creatures appear and , Elsa is forced to channel her dark powers to unleash a wide ice spike destroy them all which made Elsa horrified at the ice spikes she created.
This whole darkness thing didn't really helped me control my powers or save my sister at all. But just then, two of Weselton's guards appeared, and these guys are utterly relentless and won't let up "No. Please. Stay away!"
Back outside, Sora has just arrived outside the Ice Castle and is shocked that some of the men has fallen from the Nobodies.
"Oh no! Nobodies!" Sora appear in front of them "Stay back, I'll hold them of" Sora vanquished all of the Nobodies with his Keyblade and magic "Guys are you okay?"
"Yeah we are, thanks for your help." One of the guards replied to Sora.
"You're welcome, where's Elsa?"
"She's in the castle along with Prince Hans and two other guards." Another guard replied
"On it!" Sora heads inside the castle.
In the Ice Castle, Elsa has just snapped and begins channeling her dark powers and make her eyes turn golden to fight back the two guards along with other Heartlesses and Nobodies that come across her while Hans waits for the opportunity to deliver the killing blow. But then, Sora appears and enters the balcony.
"Elsa! Wait don't kill them!" Sora pleads with Elsa.
"Sora?" Elsa snaps out of her rage. But then Sora then gets electrically strucked from behind and knocked unconscious by Larxene.
"Sorry can't have the Keyblade wielder play the hero this time."
"You!" Elsa realize that Larxene has tricked her.
"Woopsie, it looks like I just revealed my true colors, speaking of which you might have to look out for an arrow coming at you." One of the guards try to fire an arrow at her but Hans redirects it towards the chandelier. And Elsa realize that it's coming right down at Sora, causing her to create a thick ice dome that shields the blow for him but that unfortunately caused Elsa to get hit by the splinters and gets knocked unconscious.
"Well, took you long enough. I know the old man told us not to kill the guardians of light but who cares. I am not in this to do whatever baldinort brought us to do." Larxene prepares to kill Sora with her electricity but the dome blocked the attack. Then she heard several men coming "Fine, enjoy your prolonged life Keyblade amateur." She then teleports away just as the other guards arrived.
"Prince Hans are you okay?" One of the guards asked.
"I am alright. Bring the queen back to the castle and take her to the dungeons. Make sure she is properly restrained. Where are the others?"
"We were sorry my prince but some of us have been struck down by strange white creatures. We were the only ones left among us."
"I see... it seems that the queen has inflicted caused another casualty in our ranks. Their services will be remembered. Let's move out." All the men head out with an unconscious Elsa and return back to the kingdom, leaving an encased Sora behind.
Sora wakes up only to see that everyone else is gone and he has been surrounded by an ice dome where after touching it, the ice melts away.
Elsa, She protected me from the ice that is about to fall down on me. "Wait where is Elsa?! Oh no they took her. I have to find her."
Sora heads out of the castle but then he witnessed Marshmallow somewhat looking depressed and unable to move.
"Hey, are you okay big guy?" Sora asked while using both cure and blizzard to make Marshmallow able to move again.
"Elsaa… gone." Marshmallow then decides to head down in search of Elsa.
He seems sad Sora then approach the creature in front of him "Hey wait up, we both want to look Elsa so how about we team up together big guy?" Sora offered to Marshmallow, who seemed to be listening "We're on the same side and I know you only wanted to protect Elsa just as much as we all do, so whaddaya say?" Marshmallow nods and seemingly agrees on the offer "Come on then let's go." The two then head down the mountains together in search of the sisters.
Back with the main group, Donald and Goofy has just ran along with Kristoff holding a weakened Anna with Sven while Olaf is sliding over, but then…
"What is it Sven?" Kristoff asked to the reindeer before noticing that the slope is too steep for the Sven to go across "Looks like the slope is too steep for Sven to go across, but this is the fastest way back to the kingdom."
"Don't worry fellas, my shield can slide us all the way to the kingdom." Goofy then brings down his shield "C'mon guys you can jump to my back." Donald hops in while Anna grabs Goofy from behind.
"Kristoff come on come with us." Anna invites Kristoff to come with them.
"No thanks, I won't leave Sven behind, you guys can go on ahead, I'll catch up later." Kristoff refused the offer
"...Are you g-gonna be okay?"
"Don't worry about me."
"Oh, ok then… Goofy then slides down the shield and the group marches on.
"Hey wait for me guys!" Olaf slides along with them.
"Hey guys are we playing some sort of sliding game, cause this looks really fun." Olaf excitedly said to the group in the shield as they slide together.
"It is fun if we weren't on the clock. Maybe some time after this we can slide down together." Anna said to Olaf, smiling at the snowman's optimistic mindset.
Things seems to be going fine but then…
"Waak, the big snake is coming after us again!" Donald looks behind and sees a Slithering Blizzard coming right after them.
"Huh whaa I've never seen a snake as big as this. Actually I've never a snake before so I don't even know what really look like." Anna rambled while also panicking at the same time.
"I'm sure this big snake isn't actually attacking us, maybe it's asking food from us." Olaf obliviously replied.
"Yeah, and we're the food it's asking for! Faster Goofy!" Donald urging Goofy to press on.
"I'm trying."
Donald used his fire spells to repel the snake but the giant Heartless just keeps going. "Waaaak, can't this Heartless learn that we're not food!"
And then Goofy saw a couple of Frost Avalanches appearing in front of them which cause him to brake suddenly and the group to fall on a snow right outside the kingdom with the Slithering Blizzard coming right at them, five Frost Avalanches, dozens Howling Ices, three Alpha Ices, hundreds of Winterhorns, along with seven Heartlesses made up of fire on one side and ice on the other side with the only thing shared is the Heartess emblem in the center.
"Oh no, we're surrounded. And there's too many of them." Goofy said
"Hey, why are you guys stopping, prince Hans is right over there." Olaf in his usual oblivious mindset.
"Let's just say, we're not going to make it…" Anna solemnly said.
"No we are going to make. Goofy, escort the princess to the castle. I'm going to take them out in one blast." Donald begins to channel a spell that Goofy recognize.
"Donald don't!"
"Zetta-"
But then, Sora appears, riding on Marshmallow whom the latter spiked up and crashed down on the snake before Sora used the Keyblade to vanquish the Slithering Blizzard, with the heart rising up from its dead body.
"You guys needed my help?"
Both Donald and Goofy excitedly exclaimed "Sora!"
"Marshmallow you came for us! I knew you were never a bad guy at all." Olaf approaches to try and hug his feet, demonstrating the massive size difference between the two.
"Marshmallow, wait that means." Anna ponders about Marshmallow being here.
"Elsaaa…" Marshmallow points his finger to the kingdom which meant that Elsa is over there.
"I'll explain later c'mon we'll take them all down. Anna stay by our side" Sora dodges a couple of fire and ice attacks from the two-faced Heartless before he fire a water spell and aero at it, which stuns it just enough for Sora to jump in and vaquish it. Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Marshmallow then continues to wipe out a couple of the Heartlesses but then, Sora sees Anna getting limp "Oh no Anna."
"I'll be fine Sora, you don't have to worry about me." Anna trying to falsely reassure them of her state.
"Sora go! We'll be alright without you." Goofy said to Sora.
"But-"
"Hey, as long as the big guy is alongside us, I won't need to use up all my magic against them. We'll catch up with you later." Donald also agree with Goofy that he should escort the princess first.
"It's alright Sora, I can go on my own." Anna lies about her state but then Sora grabs Anna piggyback style.
"Guys I'll catch up to you later, Anna is in dire danger right now." Sora then goes on ahead with Olaf following the duo.
"That's the spirit." Donald being proud of Sora's decision before he along with Goofy and Marshmallow continues the fight against the seemingly never-ending Heartlesses.
While Sora is heading towards the kingdom (Olaf has just got separated by stumbling upon someone else's house, then said dweller screamed at the snowman being alive) he briefs up to Anna to the situation right now.
"They took Elsa away and Marshmallow is searching for her. I'm sorry Anna I tried to protect her but I got knocked unconscious. When I woke up, I saw an ice dome around me, which means Elsa must have protected me from the ice fall but I can't find her anywhere."
"Hey it's alright Sora, you don't have blame yourself, you did the best you could. Speaking of that, there's something I need to tell you about…"
By the time Anna finished explaining everything, they're already right in front of the castle.
"T-that's horrible, for Elsa to be convinced that her powers are a curse just from an accident when you guys were children." Sora said after being told of the accident that started it all.
"Yeah, everyone did a horrible job on my big sister, making Elsa convinced that she is a monster." Anna showing her anger at her parents for how they handled the situation "I'm going to fix the mistakes that my parents and trolls did, to convince Elsa to open up her heart, to tell her that she is a wonderful sister whose powers are a blessing not a curse, no matter what it takes…" Anna vows to Sora. "So you need a true love's kiss from Hans to thaw your frozen heart?" Anna nods at this "Well, I'm sure it will work, he loves you and you love her so you will be healed in no time." Then they're right in front of the castle gates.
"It's Princess Anna!" One of the guards said.
"Excuse me, is there Prince Hans around here? Anna needs his help." Sora asked to one of the guards.
"Prince Hans is right inside this castle."
"Please, we need to see him." The guard nods and by Anna's orders, lets Sora in as well. When they come inside, two servants came out of the castle.
"Anna! Oh, you had us worried sick." One of the servants that looked like an old lady came to her.
"My Lady. You are freezing." The other man servant also said to Anna.
"Um excuse me are any of you named Prince Hans?" Sora asked to the two.
"No Sora, these two are our servants, the man here is Kai and the lady here is Gerda. Sora's a nice person so you can trust him." Anna giggled a bit by Sora's comment before she introduced them to him.
"Oh, then I'm Sora."
"It's a pleasure to meet you sir, and Prince Hans is right in the library." Kai respectfully bows to Sora before he guides Sora and Anna to the library.
"Take us to him, Anna needs his help."
While walking through the castle, Sora begins to ask the servants to start a conversation.
"So how long have you been serving in this castle?"
"As long as Agdarr as became coronated as the King sire. We were the ones among the few servants who stayed here when the gates are close." Kai replied to him.
"Agdarr?"
"It's my father's name. My mother's name is Idunn who was the previous queen of the kingdom." Anna replied to Sora.
"So is he the one who ordered the gates closed and sisters separated?"
"Yes he did. We couldn't do anything but watch as the sister live in a miserable isolated life, we wanted to argue against the king for his decision but it is not our within our rights to argue against his order to separate them even though we knew that what he did was wrong." Gerda solemnly said to Sora.
"I see so because of that decision, the king made Elsa believed that shutting people out is the only way to protect other people..." Sora begins understanding what happened. "So what happens after the parents are gone? Who is there to comfort them for their loss?"
"Nobody." Kai grimly replied.
"Nobody to lean on?"
"That's right, it was a horrible day, when the parents are gone, the sisters remain isolated and alone, princess Anna even has to mourn them without her sister by her side." Kai said to him.
"Alone? What about Elsa?" Sora asked about her.
"Dear, when we informed the elder princess of her parent's death, I can hear inside that her ice powers went wild there. That must be really hard for her. As for the princess, nobody is there to truly comfort her, not even her sister. We offered our condolences and comfort but we knew that it's not the same." Gerda is the one who replied to him. "For three years, we are helpless to watch as the princess begins to lose hope of reconnecting with her sister while the queen in waiting also loses hope in controlling her ice powers. I felt pity on the poor princess that I was the one who suggest that she could find the man of his dreams during the coronation."
"Wow? I'm sorry about that Anna. That must have been a really hard for you and your sister." Sora felt pity for the sisters.
"Hey it's alright, I know it's as hard for Elsa just as hard as it is for me, especially not that I know how much she is suffering there…" Anna reassures Sora about this Also I didn't really miss them as much now after what they did to my big sister. But then before they could converse further, they reached the library where Hans is located in.
"We're here sir." Kai said
In the library, Hans speaks with a couple of dignitaries regarding Anna.
"I'm going back out to look for Princess Anna." Hans offering to look for her towards the other digitaries.
"You cannot risk going out there again." One of the dignitaries said to him
"If anything happens to her-"
"Prince Hans, Princess Anna has just returned from the mountains." Kai said to him, revealing Princess Anna along with a young man that seemingly looks like an outsider but commoner all the same.
Wait I remember seeing in the Ice Castle earlier Sora thought.
"Anna. And who is this guy? I don't recall having allowed commoners within m- I-I mean, the queen's castle." Hans said to Anna while showing distrust for this spiky haired guy.
"His name is Sora and he helped me return from the mountains safely, please let him here in this castle. And on another topic, I need you to kiss me Hans." As Hans seemingly complied, Sora felt uneasy about the man.
"We'll give you two some privacy." Gerda and the other guards and dignitaries leave the scene.
"You too Sora." Anna said to Sora
"Are you sure?" Sora asked.
"Nothing will go wrong as long as I'm with my true love. Besides you can regroup with the rest of your friends, and then search for my sister for my sake."
"Oh okay then." Sora then asked to the prince "Excuse me Hans, did you where they took Elsa to? I remember that you're the one who went to the Ice Castle when I was there." Wait Hans went to the Ice Castle without telling me? Anna thought "I tried to save the queen but unfortunately, a woman in black coat took her somewhere that I couldn't find. Please find her Sora, the queen might be somewhere." Larxene? She took Elsa away. But I don't know if he is telling the truth or not Sora looks at Hans one last time and sense something isn't right about him but then, exits the library at Anna's request I have the feeling that this man is up to no good. I should check up on how Donald and Goofy are doing. Then I should go back and make sure Anna is alright. Sora then heads out of the castle in search of Donald, Goofy and Marshmallow.
By the way, I finally played through the last level and let's just say it's not really that good... the heroes are made to look like idiots and Xehanort in spite of everything he had done, gets redeemed and forgiven even though he doesn't even deserve it in the first place. I might consider writing a remake of the game where Sora starts out as the Keyblade master but I won't make any promises.
Back to the fan fiction, it seems that the story is almost over, twists and turns are made and the final battle is nigh with only two more chapters before the story is finished. I'm going to miss it after it ends. The next chapter will probably appear at around Tuesday or maybe even later, who knows.
