*In Arendelle*
After calming down, Elsa kissed her sister on the cheek.
"There is only one thing we can do." Elsa said, picking up the two letters.
"Um…..frame the letters?" Anna asked.
"No… we reply. We write back to Mama."
"We can do that?!" Anna exclaimed, surprised.
"Yes…..haven't you ever written a letter before?" Elsa replied, slightly amused.
"I wrote an apology letter to Gerda when I ate her chocolate truffle collection, and then I wrote a thank you letter to the Joan painting for always listening, but I didn't know you could reply." Anna replied.
"Obviously you didn't listen at all during our English lessons." Elsa sighed.
"I think….I think I was drawing caricatures of our tutors and other castle staff while he was speaking." Anna giggled. "Remember the one with Mama and her ridiculously oversized sunglasses?"
Elsa laughed. "We are NOT sending that one to her."
"Yes. It's too special. We must treasure it forever." Anna giggled
Elsa exhaled, reassuring herself as she picked up a feather quill and a piece of parchment. She sat down at the desk and ran her hand through her blonde hair. Beads of sweat dripped onto the desk from her forehead. She suddenly felt warm arms wrap themselves around her body.
"We're in this together. The letter is from both of us, and you're never alone. I'll start." Anna said, reassuring her nervous sister.
Anna cleared her throat. "Dearest Mama, have you showered lately?"
"ANNA!" Elsa exclaimed.
"I'm joking! I'm joking!" Anna giggled.
"Dearest Mama,
Thank the gods you're alive! Our prayers have been answered!" Anna dictated as Elsa wrote it down. "Your turn."
Dearest Mama,
Thank the gods you're alive! Our prayers have been answered!
We are so relieved to hear from you and we have so much to tell you. We hope you will be proud of us.
Elsa sighed. "Okay. Can you do the next part?"
Anna nodded in response. "I think I'll write about your bravery. Mama would be really proud." Anna picked up the feather quill and dipped it in ink, clumsily spilling part of it on her dress.
Elsa finally gained control of her powers. She went and created a huge ice palace on the North Mountain. It's stunning! You need to see it when you come back home. I think you'd love it. Elsa shoved her gloves in the attic and hasn't looked back since. Anna wrote.
"There." Anna put down the feather quill and gently tucked it into her sister's hand. "Your turn."
Elsa looked down at the parchment, completely blank as to what to write. She looked up at her sister, giving her sister adorable puppy eyes.
"Why don't you write about me. How you saved Arendelle." Anna said.
"No Anna, you saved me." Elsa smiled and dipped the feather quill in ink.
Anna sacrificed herself for me. As Grand Pabbie feared, I grew afraid and accidently struck her in the chest. At her weakest, she threw herself in front of a sword of an absolutely disgrace of a prince and saved my life. She froze for about ten seconds, but those ten seconds saved both our lives. Oh, and she's got a boyfriend now! His name is Kristoff and he's an ice harvester. They are so happy together and he is a great man.
Anna and I are best friends now, and I can't live without her. We are rebuilding our relationship and the people love us. We are sure they will love you when you get home. Elsa wrote.
"That's perfect. You're really amazing, Els." Anna smiled. 'Now, let's finish this off together."
We wish you a speedy recovery, Mama. We are waiting for you. Say hello to Aunt Arianna and Cousin Rapunzel for us. We hope you are being well looked after and getting spoiled with lots of chocolate!
Sending kisses from Arendelle, we hope to see you soon. Sending all the strength possible to your heart.
Love your golden child and small child, Elsa and Anna.
Anna grabbed a spare quill and quickly sketched two pictures on two pieces of parchment. The first one was Kristoff, Anna and Elsa, sitting on Sven, smiling and happy with the way things had turned out with their newly formed family. The second one was Elsa and Anna wrapping Idunn in a hug, while their mother clutched a huge bunch of flowers in her arms.
We love you Mama, more than you will ever know. We miss you. Anna wrote on the bottom.
Anna decided to add a third picture. She drew Elsa in her ice dress, looking beautiful and very happy.
Elsa is amazing. She made this dress too! Maybe she can make you a new wardrobe when you come home!
Elsa picked up the drawing. "A new wardrobe?" Elsa giggled. "I don't think I can think of that many designs!"
Anna laughed. "I only think Mama will be worried that you'll take the Royal Tailor's job!"
Elsa laughed. "True, true."
Anna smiled. "Hug?" She asked.
"Of course." Elsa smiled, pulling her sister into a hug. Anna squeezed her tightly.
"Relax, Elsa. Mama's going to be okay. She's a fighter just like you. Besides, I'm partially named after Aunt Arianna so she pretty much has me there with her!"
Elsa laughed. "I suppose so. She'll be okay. Mama's our hero and our warrior."
*Back In Corona*
Idunn buried her head in Arianna's chest as they gently swung to the joyful music. Arianna stroked her sister's hair as the sweet music eventually came to an end. Once again, the audience burst into a round of applause for Idunn. Idunn lifted her head, blushing hard.
"Thank you, thank you." Idunn said softly, still slightly overwhelmed about all the attention. Her legs suddenly began to shake, and she felt herself starting to slip down Arianna's dress.
"Ah…..AH!" Idunn gasped out as she desperately grabbed onto her sister, the hard ground approaching closer and closer.
Arianna attempted to pull her up, but her sister was almost as heavy as her and Arianna wasn't too strong.
"Idunn!" Arianna gasped, slipping her arms under her sister's armpits as she slipped down.
Suddenly, Idunn lost her grip on her sister and slipped rapidly towards the ground. She screamed loudly, frightening her sister to no end.
Just as her body was about to make contact with the horribly hard cobblestones, she felt a firm tug on the back of her dress. She was suspended in mid-air, just in time.
Idunn looked around, confused, as the person behind her pulled her to her feet from behind. Did she suddenly have powers now? Was that her that did that?
Arianna looked behind Idunn, curious as to who had helped her sister.
Idunn felt the mysterious person guide her to her wheelchair from behind. It was so strange she almost thought it was her very husband himself. Sadly, the grip on the back of her dress was too firm to have been a spirit.
Idunn was surprised that they had only grabbed her back and completely avoided her front. Grabbing her front would have been horribly painful, especially on her scars, not only from her surgery, but some of the removed tubes too. Idunn was finally safely sitting in her wheelchair. Arianna held Idunn's arm tightly, with a firm, protective mother-like grip.
"Be careful next time, Your Majesty." The voice chuckled behind her.
Idunn turned to thank her rescuer, but instead, her jaw dropped at the man's face.
"Hello, Your Majesty." The man smiled. "You look beautiful today."
"Karl?!" Idunn gasped, her shocked expression slowly turning into a relieved smile.
"It's good to see you again, Your Majesty." Karl smiled.
