Sorry for the long delay guys! Now, this chapter is back to Anna who is supposed to be the Queen of Arendelle now. Sorry if I'm confusing anyone but if you read it from the beginning then it should make so sense. I decided to break this into two parts as well. Also, I would like to say thanks for all the support with this story, I'll be sure to make it worth your while! Anyways, here's we go :D
We become closer with people if we bond with our secrets.
CHAPTER 4: BONDING WITH SECRETS
If there is one thing Anna hates the most is long, boring, drag out meetings. It hasn't been 3 minutes yet and Anna was already finding it hard to focus on the constant rambling of these frustrated council people!
"I believe that can work!" a councilman shouted out in defense as he slams his hand on the table, earning looks from the other council people.
"Really? I beg to differ. That plan will automatically fail!" A councilwoman countered with a scoff.
"And how would you know?" The councilman demanded her to tell him as he gestured a hand out to her as if he is giving her the right to speak. The councilwoman couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Because it just screams out 'Hey! Our Queen is well secure. We got men who can't move so I doubt you could come anywhere close to her!' That's why" The councilwoman supported her opinion while folding her arms across her chest.
The councilman just huffs in disappointment and annoyance as he too folded his arms across his chest. "There is nothing wrong with using snowmen"
The councilwoman just facepalmed while shaking her head as everyone begins to chat with each other.
"Um? Here's a suggestion" Another councilwoman said which got everyone's attention except for Anna, who's still slouching slightly in her chair yet no one notices this.
"What is it?" Another councilman demanded.
"How about we use The Wicked Witch's help?" A councilwoman suggested. Everyone gasped loudly at this, whether it was intentional or not.
This, however, caught Anna's attention.
'The Wicked Witch? Could she be talking about the witch she encounters or Elsa?' Anna began pondering to herself.
She then decided to look up and focus on the conversation in front of her so she can find out.
"Are you crazy?! You want to ask help from a woman who could freeze our land with the flick of her wrist?!" A councilman raises his voice at her.
'They are talking about Elsa' Anna said to herself in her head. Of course.
"Yes! She is the one who causes most of our problems!" A third councilwoman added in.
"I totally agree" Another councilman nodded to their statement.
"I swear if I ever see her again, I will have her burn at the stake in public!" A third councilman stated as he pounds his fist on the table. Everyone began to clap for what he said.
Anna already felt a pang of anger as she tapped her foot violently and had her arms crossed so tightly over chest when the council started to talk so disrespectfully towards Elsa, who wasn't even her to defend herself. But soon, she was feeling blinding hot rage when they started to joke around about the public execution of her. At this point, Anna had enough.
"Enough!" Anna shouted as she slams both her hands down on the table.
Everyone stopped at her command and looked at her. Seeing that she got their attention, Anna states her claim "El-!" She quickly stopped herself since the council people wouldn't know who Elsa is by name. "I mean the Wicked Witch is not dangerous"
"How could you say that?! She hurt you in more ways than us! Plus, it's in her title!" A third councilman exclaimed to her.
Anna raised an eyebrow at that statement from the third councilman. Elsa hurt her in more ways than them? This doesn't make sense to her at all. What did Elsa exactly do to her? Wanting to know more, Anna simply ask "What did she do to me huh?"
Anna was only met by silence. Feeling irritated, Anna slams her hand down on the table, catching everyone's attention.
"Tell me!" Anna demanded firmly.
The third councilman was about to let her have it but was stopped by a fourth councilwoman as she shakes her head at him and whispers "It's forbidden remember?"
Anna quickly heard that and decided to challenge it "What's forbidden?!"
No one said anything once again which irks Anna a lot.
"Is anyone going to tell me what did The Wicked Witch do to me so bad that made everyone fear her and want her gone?!"
Still, no one said anything and at that point, Anna was done. She then pushes herself from the table and declared "Fine then! If no one can tell me what she did then I'll go to the source. Her!" The Council gasped as Anna made her way to the door.
"Your Maje-!"
Anna slammed the door and walked down the hall with clench fists.
Kai and Gerda just turn the corner just to see their Queen coming their way. Anna notices them and they quickly bow to her.
"You guys really don't have to do that all the time you see me, you know?" Anna said lightly which made them chuckle softly.
"Your Majesty. How was the meeting?" Kai asked waiting for possible feedback. Anna instantly got irritated.
"Great just freaking great!" Anna said as she threw her hands up in the air while going pass them.
Kai and Gerda exchange looks with each other. They knew when Anna does this, something wasn't going her way. They then saw her making a beeline to the doors. "Where are you going?" Gerda asked in concern.
"Out. I'll be back" Anna replied quickly as she went out the doors.
Once Anna went out of the doors, she looked up and at the North Mountain. Judging by the way it is, she knew it would take a good solid hour to get there. "I have to talk with Elsa but how could I get there quickly?" She asked herself as she looked around for anything that will be to her advantage.
Suddenly, she caught sight of Kristoff and Sven with their sled, walking in the direction that she wanted to go! "Bingo!" She said as she smiles brightly.
Anna walked over and yelled out "Kristoff! Sven!"
The two cringe when they heard their names being called. Then quickly looked over to see who it was, only to find out it was the Queen they saw earlier!
"Oh, it's you, Your Majesty. Good to see you" Kristoff said as he and Sven bowed to her, properly. Anna blushed a little from the gesture. It's just so awkward seeing her two friends act like this to her. "Oh, you guys don't have to do that remember?"
"Yeah, I remember. You said that we were um-your-uh-friends I believe" Kristoff answered awkwardly while Sven nods his head.
Anna was impressed by the little progress she made on Kristoff and Sven. She then shook her head and said happily "Yes indeed!"
Kristoff smile slightly and ask her "If you don't mind me asking, what is it that you want with us?"
"I need you to bring me to the North Mountain" Anna declared.
Oh, boy doesn't that sound familiar.
Kristoff and Sven's eyes widen in response to that! Which send Kristoff off into a constant ramble "What?! N-No way! It's too dangerous and besides, you are the Queen! Of Arendelle! If anything were to happen to you when you are with me it will be my-"
Kristoff was cut short when Anna placed a kiss on his cheek. She saw Kristoff's face go bright red and it made her giggle.
"W-W-Wha-" He stuttered.
"So are you going to bring me to the North Mountain?" Anna asked with a sparkle in her eyes. Kristoff laughs awkwardly and stuttered out "Y-Y-Yeah. W-We leave n-now"
Anna squealed in delight and hug him and head to the sled.
Kristoff turns to Sven with google eyes and said "Did you see that?! I got a kiss from the Queen!" Sven gave Kristoff 'Are you crazy?! She's a Queen! We can't bring her to the North Mountain! She'll bring trouble to us' look. Kristoff looks at him and scoffs "Oh come on. She's with us. What's the worst that can happen?"
10 minutes later
"I stand corrected" Kristoff sigh in defeat as Sven shot him an 'I told you' look. The trio was surrounded by an angry pack of wolves that guarded the North Mountain. And judging by the way they are looking, they are not happy to see the trio trespassing on their mountain. Anna looked at the wolves and cough awkwardly "Well they seem mad"
Kristoff gave Anna a look and sarcastically says "No they seem just peachy to me" Anna looked at him and smirk 'Same old grumpy and sarcastic Kristoff. I'm glad he hasn't changed that much.' Anna then began to take note of her surroundings 'Alright. I got to focus on what is in front of me. What will come in handy to get these wolves to back off? Suddenly, Anna remembers that they were on a mountain, a snowy one.
"Bingo!" Anna exclaimed as she drops down to her knees. Kristoff looked at her as if she was insane! "What are you doing?!"
"Making a snowball dummy," She said as she gathers a bunch of snow in her hands. "This isn't the time to do a snowball fight?!" Kristoff remarked. Anna rolled her eyes. She knew Kristoff was always a Debbie downer but right now she can't have that in her mind.
"Okay I'm going to block you out now so just watch and trust me," Anna said as she concentrated on making the snowball.
Kristoff grumbled as he folds his arms across his chest. Clearly offended by what she just said to him. "I'm not that annoying you know" He mumbled to himself.
Sven eyes her with curiosity on what she was going to do. Then, Anna stands up with the snowball in her hand and smirk at mountain man before turning her attention back to the wolves. Kristoff's eyes widen when he realizes what Anna was going to do!
"No! Wa-"
SPLAT!
One of the wolves got hit by a snowball in the face which only made him and the rest of his pack furious!
"Great! Now you have done it!" Kristoff yelled at her.
"Well, that did not go according to plan" Anna responded back as she instinctively steps in front of Kristoff and Sven with her hand out in front of the wolves as if that will defend her from them.
The wolves then close in their way around the trio, menacingly! Sven began to whimper in fear while Anna and Kristoff kept looking back and forth between each other and the wolves.
"We're screw!" Kristoff exclaimed. Then the wolves lunge at them and-
HAHH!
The trio opens their eyes to see the wolves whimper away as the ice spikes move after them while 4 of the spikes that were protecting them, melted away. The trio was shocked especially Kristoff!
"What did thi-WOAHHHH!"
The three were then lifted 20 feet in the air by the assistance of snow cloud! Suddenly, a figure with a light blue outfit and long platinum blonde came into view.
"Evening trespassers"
That voice. Anna knew who exactly it was! "Elsa!" Anna cried out excitedly. She actually saves them!
Unlike last time, Elsa was unfazed by the girl's response. Instead, she just moves her gaze over to Anna and said "Oh. It's the Queen of Arendelle. Didn't I warn you to stay out of trouble?"
Kristoff was at a loss for words. The Mistress of the Northern Mountains knows the Queen of Arendelle?! He then turned to Anna, who showed no fear in her eyes whatsoever. "Wait. You know her?!" Kristoff finally spurted out in disbelief.
"Yes," Anna nodded with a smile. An evil gleam made its way across Elsa's eyes as she said "And you bring a mountain man and a reindeer with you? I guess I can add all of you to my ice collection"
Kristoff and Sven gulped before turning back to look at Anna. "Why is it since I met you, things aren't going in my favor anymore?!" Kristoff questioned.
"Haha. That is one thing you always hated about me but thank me for it" Anna remarked, only managing to get a grumble from Kristoff in response.
Elsa rolled her eyes. She could absolutely care less about these two arguing with each other. All she cared about is one thing "Why are you on my mountain?"
"I want to talk to you" Anna stated proudly although trying to ignore that she was suspended 20 feet in the air on nothing but snow!
Elsa cocked her head to the side. "Oh? Is that so?"
Anna nodded her head the best she could while Kristoff and Sven flash a grin at her. "Yes!" Anna gasped out. Elsa smiles at the trio but it wasn't the happy type of smile more like a deceiving smile."Well too bad. I'm not the one for talking and I also believe-" Elsa then clutch her hands a little tighter, causing her three captors yelping in pain. "You overstay your welcome. Time for you to pre-!"
"Wait!" Anna cut in sharply which caught Elsa's attention on to her. "All I want from you is some answers."
"Didn't I just say that I-
"To understand why you are like this! Can you at least give me that?!" Anna cried out to her with pleading eyes. When Elsa saw her eyes, she thought about it for a moment which brings some hope to Anna, Kristoff, and Sven. The glare began to fade from her eyes as they were replaced with sad and understanding eyes which made the trio look concern for her. Elsa notice this and instantly shot the three across the area! The trio scream as they were tossed aside in different directions!
Anna collided hard with the ground! "OWWW!" She groaned as she pushes herself on to her feet. "Oh, you can't complain!" Kristoff called out to her. "Why do you say th-Oh" Anna said as she turns around to see Kristoff and Sven tangle up with each other in the tree above her.
Anna looked worried for a second but then started to giggle uncontrollably! Kristoff narrowed his eyes at her. "That's not funny!" Kristoff yelled at her as he wrestles his way, trying to get untangled from Sven. "I believe it is!" Anna stated as she continues to giggle at his futile efforts.
Elsa oversees the scenario and found it amusing for a second that she actually crack a smile. But then something pang in her head which made her stop smiling and turn to leave the trio. Anna stops laughing just on time to see Elsa leaving. she gasped loudly as she remembers that she can't have Elsa leave off her hands so easily.
"Hey, Elsa! Wait up!" She shouted as she chases after her.
"Hey!" Kristoff shouted to Anna as he watches her chase down the Snow Queen while Sven tries to get them from being untangled "Wait for u-AHHHHH!" Kristoff and Sven then fell out of the tree! Kristoff was the first to make contact with the ground! Just as he was about to get up, Sven then fell on top of him! The two buddies were in a daze but Sven quickly recovers as he scrambles to his feet and took off after the two while kicking snow in Kristoff's face! Kristoff spits out the snow from his mouth and wipes his face.
"Why me?" Kristoff muttered as he staggers up on his feet and drags himself to the others.
Ha! Poor Kristoff. What do you guys think of that chapter? The next part would be up today or tomorrow! :D To give you a little heads up, this next part explains Elsa's history and why she got the name"The Mistress of the Northern Mountains" and "The Queen of Ice and Snow"! Also, the Witch comes to visit Anna later about the wish :D Before I go, let me ask you guys a question: Remember what the councilman said to Anna during the meeting? Okay now here's your question. What do you think Elsa did to hurt Anna even though Anna doesn't remember it at all?
