Keahi scratched the side of her head while she watched Olaf attempt to walk — correction, stumble up the hill while face-planting multiple times. It was just too steep for him to shamble up.

She had to hand it to him; he was determined. Rolling her eyes, she walked up behind the magical snowman. "Hey, snowman, where exactly are you going?" She asked, planting her leg behind him to keep Olaf from falling backward.

"To the North Mountain. I want to check on Marshmallow and the mini's at the ice palace."

Keahi cocked a brow and shook her hands in front of her in a 'wait a second' motion. "What ice palace and there's more of you?"

"Kinda." Olaf happily hummed, stopping and looking up at Keahi and gasping like some great idea just went off in his head. "Do you want to come, Ah Ha?"

"Uh, yeah. Why haven't I heard of all this before now?" Keahi exclaimed. She was ready to zip right up the damn mountain with or without Olaf.

"Probably because it was a difficult time with the ending of old toxic traits and the start of self-discovery and overcoming the fear of her own magical manifestations." He huffed out in a jumble of word vomit.

Keahi blinked. She was not expecting that. "Well, that was... unexpectedly deep for, you know, you."

"I get that a lot." He absently said as he walked to the water's edge. Nokk materialized from the water and whinnied. "Oh look! We can ride Nokk!"

"I'm not getting on Princess charmings' steed. Besides that thing tried to kill me a few weeks ago."

Nokk reached out to bite her, and she stumbled back and hitched a thumb, annoyed. "See? The water cow doesn't like me."

"That's because it's a water reindeer get it right, Ah Ha."

Keahi snapped at him, "You are absolutely correct. Now let's get walking I want to see this ice palace." She grinned, hitching a thumb over her shoulder.

Olaf finally conceded with a dramatic sigh and trudged behind her for the long walk to the North Mountain. "Can you carry me?"

"No."

Keahi stood in front of the large ice palace, eyes drifted upwards as she craned her head back and her jaw dropped open. "Holy — Elsa made this?"

"Yep. We can go right in no need to knock, they know me well here." He chuckled, brushing off his shoulder like some royalty to this massive ice palace.

It still stunned Keahi how beautiful it was. And how massive. Elsa had made this right when she really let go of her powers? It was amazing!

"Oh, uh, one thing." Olaf halted deliberately in front of her, causing her to nearly slam into him. "Don't touch Marshmallows crown."

"Why?"

"You ask too many questions Ah Ha." He shot back as the heavy doors opened. The sound reverberated over the ice, echoing until it fizzled out and it left them with nothing but quiet.

Keahi and Olaf walked to the center of the room. She crossed her arms while Olaf excitedly zipped back and forth. "Marshmallow! Minis!" He called.

A few seconds later, the ground shook with each heavy step as Marshmallow rounded the corner.

Keahi's eyes widened, and she leapt back in surprise, "Holy abominable snowman! Elsa made that?!"

"We don't curse around here Ah Ha." Olaf chided, Keahi just scowled. Olaf turned his attention back to Marshmallow. "Marshmallow, this is Ah Ha. Ah Ha, Marshmallow."

"Pleasure?" Keahi edged, uncertain.

Marshmallow glanced back at Keahi with a look of boredom. Her eyes went to the small crown on Marshmallow's head. Was that the crown Olaf was talking about? She remembered a picture in the foyer of Elsa's coronation painting. It looked the same. Was that hers?

The minis flooded around in a tidal wave of bodies as they tripped over one another and surrounded Keahi and Olaf.

"Snowbert! Slush! Frosty! Snow one! Snow two! Snow three…" Olaf's voice echoed in the castle.

Keahi leaned over and braced her hands on her knees as she looked at the cute little snowmen. "When did she make all these?"

"Well, Marshmallow was made to dramatically throw us out when Elsa didn't want us around. The minis were made when she got a cold."

"Elsa? A cold? Pft."

"It's true!" He bounced back.

Keahi leaned over and scooped one up. It sat happily in her hands and she laughed. "Yeesh, Elsa seems to have a knack for making... living things…" next thing she knew, she would wake up being a mother to a newly created snow child at this point.

Marshmallow sat and when he did, the crystal chandelier overhead rattled and his crown popped off when a piece of ice fell and hit him perfectly on the top of the head.

It crown clipped against the ground and slid across the floor. "Hold on, I got it big guy." Keahi trotted over and leaned over to pick it up, handing it back to him.

Marshmallow blinked before angrily letting out a roar, spikes erupting from his joints and Keahi took a step back.

Olaf held his head in his hands, lifting it to eye level and shaking his head. "You had one rule and you broke it."

"What! I was trying to be nice. I don't want it. It looks great on you big guy, here!" Keahi tried to shove it back but Marshmallow was already worked up.

"He gets a little moody when people touch his things." Olaf put his head back on his body. "Just use your fire and maybe he'll calm down."

"One — no that would just make it worse and two, I can't use my fire that well ever since the curse broke."

"Oh wow, it's Elsa all over again. You're not helpful at all."

"Says the squishy, small talking snowman!" Keahi shot back, edging towards the door.

"You think I'm squishy?" He asked before Marshmallow scooped them up and threw them out of the palace.

Keahi landed headfirst into the snowbank and Olaf landed beside her in discombobulated pieces.

Pulling herself out, she grunted and stood, dusting the snow off her clothes and attempting to put Olaf back together.

Which didn't go as planned. She didn't put him together right at all.

He reshuffled himself all the while giving her a look of disbelief. "Have you never built a snowman? What are you even doing?"

"No, I built sandcastles!" Keahi shot back just as the ground began to vibrate once more. "Time to go!" She grabbed his arm and started to run.

But he felt awfully light. She raised her hand where she clutched the stick arm to find it wasn't attached to anything. She rolled her eyes and looked back to see his stubby legs working overtime to catch up to her.

"Give me back my arm!" he called out, finally catching up to her.

She handed it back, and he twisted it back on.

Marshmallow let out a roar and Keahi panicked, glancing back and forth to find something that could get them quickly down the mountainside.

A hollowed-out half log sat just off to the side and Keahi grinned. It would just be like surfing on the water... except snow. That should work? Right? She leaned over and grabbed Olaf, tossing him on it.

"You can't just grab people that's rude Ah Ha. You need to know these things if you're marrying a princess."

"Marrying?!" Keahi shouted, pushing the log to give it momentum and jumping onto it.

It rapidly gained speed, and she just realized she had absolutely nothing to steer with.

"Yeah, that's what happens when you find true love!" Olaf shouted over the raging wind as they continued to gain speed.

"I think our situation is a little different Olaf it doesn't work like that." Keahi told absently as she tried to grab something to steer with.

"Why?"

Keahi shrugged, focused more on the forest whizzing by them than the question.

"You love Elsa?" he questioned.

"Yes."

"Elsa loves you?"

"So I've been told." Keahi responded absently, finally snagging an old branch on the ground and using it as a rudder to steer them.

"Then what's the problem?"

Keahi scowled. "You ask too many questions."

"Excuse me, that's my line!" He yelled.

They both looked forward. In unison, letting out a yell as they hit a bump that sent them both flying and rolling down the snowbank.

Keahi landed face first in a pile of snow while Olaf rolled perfectly and leapt up with his arms in the air. "Perfect 10! Tada!"

In front of them, Anna and Elsa stood and looked at one another, confused before Anna finally spoke. "We were wondering where you two went!"

"We went to visit Marshmallow and the minis!" Olaf shouted cheerfully.

Keahi sat up, groaning as a wave of dizziness assaulted her. She stiffened when she realized Elsa and Anna were looking at her. "It wasn't my fault." She interjected quickly.

Olaf giggled and waved her off. "It was fun, all good fun. But she touched Marshmallows crown which sent us into a spiraling log ride of doom down the mountain." He hummed as he walked towards the castle. "Oh, and Ah Ha wants to marry you."

Keahi sighed and flopped back into the snow.

This snowman would kill her.
