Elsa's heart stops and she looks into those bluish-grey eyes and the name echoes in her head. Her dreams come crashing back into her eyes and she remembers those same eyes, looking at her with such joy and wonder. Then turning into fear and sorrow. They had haunted her for years and now, here they were, looking straight at her.

"Em….Emily?" she croaks out. She looks into those eyes and she seeks a glimpse of that sorrow she always dreamed of. She was really here, after all these years. But why?

"Did you forget about me?" Emily asks, looking into Elsa's piercing blue eyes, hoping that she hadn't been forgotten. Ever since her father had been murdered and she was kidnapped she could never forget about the princess. She was then sold to Barren and he put her into the army. She was pushed to her limit and became a pro and hiding her emotions, except when it came to the princess who painted her dreams and thoughts. When she was informed that Barren would be going to Arendelle to try and win the queen's hand, she had gotten excited and sad at the same time. Elsa was now a queen, mature and had responsibilities to her kingdom. She would have no time for a soldier like herself.

"Of course I remember you. I could never forget that day." Elsa started to tear up and she held back tears. "My father and I should have gone back for you and your people. We shouldn't…..we shouldn't have retreated." she chokes out. Emily wraps her up in a big, warm hug and Elsa buries her head in the crook of Emily's neck. She takes a deep breath and calms herself down.

"It's okay, there really wasn't anything you could have done. It all worked out in the end right. I found you again." She takes her hand and tilts Elsa's chin up so she can look into her eyes she loves. She grins down at her and Elsa offers her a small smile. "So what is this about ice powers?" she raises her eyebrow. Elsa starts to blush and pushes herself away from Emily's chest and takes a few steps away from her. She then raises her head and looks right into Emily's eyes with a smirk on her face.

"Let me show you." She then stomps onto the ground and a sheet of ice appears underneath both of them. Emily jumps in surprise and then tries to regain her footing as she starts to slip on the thin sheet of ice. Then Elsa shoots a blast of ice in the air and snow starts to fall on both of them. Emily's eyes fill with such wonder and the snow falling onto her face causes her eyes to turn bluer and she sticks her tongue out to catch snowflakes. Elsa giggles at this action and starts to walk over to Emily, having no trouble staying upright on the ice. Once she gets closer she Emily tries to face her but then starts to lose her footing and falls right into Elsa. Elsa's eyes grow big as she starts to fall to the ground beneath her. She closes her eyes and waits for the feeling of hitting the ice, but it never comes. She opens her eyes and sees Emily's face inches from her own. She then realizes their bodies are flushes against each other and she is meer inches from the ground as Emily's strong left arm is wrapped around her waist and her right arm is holding her up from the ground. Her right knee is against the ice and she is using all her strength to not slip and pin the queen underneath herself. Elsa's breath hitches as she feels Emily's warm breath on her lips as they are very close to together. She looks into her eyes and then back to her lips, tempted to lean closer. Just as she was about to, she heard the door to the garden burst open.

"PORTER!" Emily's eyes grow wide and pure fear envelops her blue orbs as she gently drops Elsa to the ground and stands at attention, looking at the slim man striding up to her. She tries not to flinch as she sees Barren's hand come up and feels the sudden shot of pain that spreads across her right cheek. She erases all emotion from her eyes as she looks into the now black orbs of fury looking down at her.

"You dare touch the Queen of Arendelle and my future wife like that behind my back! I should have you beheaded for this Porter! I thought I could trust you and now you pull this on me? After all I have done for you! I saved your pathetic ass when you were little and this is how you thank me?!" He is furious and Elsa just stays on the ground, frozen by all that just happened. She sees that Emily is holding her emotions back but she can see fear and sorrow starting to fill her eyes. She stands up quickly and stands between the two.

"Prince Barren please Porter and I were just talking and I slipped and she was just trying to catch me." The prince held up his hand to Elsa and cleared his throat.

"I understand you trying to cover for Porter my queen but this doesn't excuse her actions. I've seen her pull this trick on many a woman and then has them wrapped around her little finger but I can't have her doing it to the Queen of Arendelle. Mike!" He hollers and one of the large men that had come on land with them comes towards Barren and stands in attention next to him. Take Porter and chain her under deck on the ship. She is not to have any food or water until I say so and a proper whipping for her actions today." Mike then walks up to Emily and grabs her by the arm and starts dragging her towards the docks. Emily just walks along with him and looks at the ground. Only when she walks past Elsa does she look up into her eyes. She offers the queen a small smile but she knows she looks completely broken. Elsa, meanwhile, is trying not to hold back tears as she watches Emily get taken away from her. She couldn't let something bad happen to Emily when she just found her.

"Prince Barren please listen to me she didn't hurt me in anyway."

"Pardon my rudeness your majesty but you don't know Porter like I do. She plays with your heart strings and then hurts you. I can not have that happen to you when we are trying to make an alliance. Now if you may stay out of my business with my soldiers that would be much appreciated." He then bowed to Elsa and strode away to the docks in pursuit of Mike and Emily. Elsa leaned back against a tree and started to sob to herself. Why had this happened so suddenly? What did Barren mean, what did he know about Emily? What had she done? She soon sat against the tree and cried until she eventually fell asleep.
