Chapter 5.5: Part 1

The night was quiet and cold, a perfect environment to enjoy my goodnight sleep.

"Elsa! Pssst!" I heard someone called beside my bed.

"Elsa!" She called again and this time, she even crawled right on top of me and then hastily shook me "Wake up, wake up, wake up!"

"Anna, go back to sleep" I moaned.

But Anna didn't stop there. She slammed her body right into mine then recited the following lines like a drama queen "I just can't! The sky is awake, so I'm awake! So we have to play!"

Getting annoyed, I shoved her off to the side "Go play by yourself!"

At last, a moment of silence. I can now sleep peacefully. I thought.

But that moment didn't last long, Anna crawled up again then opened my eyelid a bit "Do you want to build a snowman?" she asked in a teasing manner.

This sister of mine never really knows when to give up, and that's why I'm the one who gave in. Besides, she knows I love playing in the snow.

"Ok… alright. But, only for a while" I sat up then smiled at her.

"Yay!" Anna rejoiced. She quickly pulled me out of my bed then ran towards the door.

"Let's go! Come on, come on, come, come, come on" she excitedly repeated the word a lot of times.

"Shh! Shh! Shh!" I tried to hush her. Mama and Papa might scold us if they found out. But she still ran through the corridor and down the staircase without even caring.

In the end, I ended up joining her. Besides, we're almost at the ballroom where we'll have fun together.

"Do the magic! Do the magic!"

She exclaimed excitedly as she pulled me over to the middle of the room.

I snapped my fingers then twirled my hands as I tried to concentrate. A few seconds later, a ball of ice started to materialize in between my hands.

"Ready?" I asked. Anna just responded with a nod and excited smile. I raised both of my hands, and the magic ball flew up like a firework then exploded into millions of sparkling particles similar to snow.

"This is amazing!" Anna shouted as she ran around with her hands held up high.

I still have an extra trick up in my sleeves.

"Watch this" I said as I stomp my foot on the ground. In moments, the whole floor turned into an ice rink. Immediately after, I used my powers to create mountainous piles of snow everywhere for us to play with.

Anna and I have always built a snowman whenever we play in snow, it's like a tradition.

"Hi! I'm Olaf. And I like warm hugs!" I said in a deeper voice.

Anna excitedly run up to it and gave it a big hug.

"I love you Olaf!"

We both continued to play, ice skate, and go slide in the snow, never knowing that an accident would happen in just a matter of minutes. We're kids. We start to forget about things while we're having fun.

From one mountain of snow, Anna jumped high into the air.

"Hang on!"

I said as I made snow pillars for Anna to land on.

Anna just kept on jumping and jumping, but I couldn't keep up with my snow pillars. I felt that something bad was about to happen, and I panicked.

"Wait! Slow down!"

I conjured snow pillars as fast as I could, until I lost my balance and fell on the icy floor.

Here it comes, the thing that I feared the most. Anna jumped from the highest pillar, but I couldn't make another pillar for her to land into.

"Woohoo!"

"Anna!" I screamed. I can't think of anything else.

I have to save her!

I shot out an ice bolt abruptly, hoping it would make a soft landing for Anna in time, but the opposite happened. My precision was dulled at that time. Now the ice magic was aimed straight right into Anna's face instead of the ground.

No! I screamed mentally. It felt like everything has gone into slow motion.

No, no,no… Anna! I'm so sorry… I regretted as the ice magic travelled towards Anna's face. I can't do anything to save her.

However, right in the corner of my eye, I saw something move out from one of the pillars. A piece of cloth flew right into the air to intercept my ice magic. It turned into ice then broke into million shards when it hit the ground.

The whole cloth thing distracted me; I quickly turned my eyes to Anna. Right there, I saw something unbelievable. Anna was safe and sound as she clung to a stranger's arms.

I felt like I'm about to cry in relief. I ran fast towards them "Anna! Anna!" I called.

"Are you hurt?" I asked. The stranger brought Anna down then I hugged her with all my might. I scanned her body, looking for any possible injury.

"Again! Again!" She exclaimed excitedly.

"No, no, we can't. You were almost hurt" I said then hugged her again. Right behind her was a person I've never met before. He had these funny looking clothes. He might've looked suspicious but he saved my sister, I had to thank him.

I slowly walked to him "Thank you very much, Sir" I bowed my head.

"Ahh… err, no problem. Glad to help" He replied as he turned to face me. I didn't notice it before but now I can clearly see his face.

He's handsome. I thought as I stared at him dreamily. His face was almost perfect except for that tiny scar on his left eyebrow.

"I haven't seen you around here mister, are you one of the guards?" I asked.

He looked spaced out for a while but replied right after "Uhhh, yeah. Something like that, I'm a… a new recruit! Yeah, and I'm on patrol duty inside the palace…"

"I have to go princesses, I'm still on duty" He said as he backed away.

"Awwww, can't you play with us?" Anna said in a slightly disappointed tone.

"Maybe… next time? But I really have to go" He insisted.

"Wait!" I stopped him. Something inside of me didn't want him to leave. "Can't you at least tell us your name? We'll tell Mama and Papa about your good deed" I added.

"Ummm, I'm just nobody. So my name isn't really important." He replied.

Upon hearing this, it made me disappointed.

You saved my sister; you're not just a 'nobody' after doing that. It really means a lot to me. I wanted to say that out loud but couldn't for some reason.

"I… I really have to go now, Goodnight princesses" He bids farewell.

I just nodded in response with a gloom on my face "Let's go sleep, Anna. Mama and Papa will scold us if they know we're up this late." I said as I held Anna's hand.

As we made our way towards the door, the stranger called out "Ah… wait Princess Elsa…"

I turned my head quickly back to him, wishing he'd say his name.

"Umm, sweet dreams…" came out from his mouth. It wasn't what I'm expecting him to say but it still made me a bit happy.

"Thank you…" I smiled then turned away. Before closing the door, I looked back, but the stranger was nowhere to be seen. I sighed then closed the door behind me.

It has been 5 years since that happened. I've never told anyone about what happened that night, not even my parents. Anna might've been there, but she had no idea what really happened and just regarded it as one of her happy playtime memories.

The memory was still fresh for me, and the stranger that saved Anna that night vanished. I tried to look for him the next day, but the guards seem clueless about the new recruit I was talking about. As fast as his arrival, was his departure, like an air breeze – there for a moment then suddenly, gone.

I let out a deep and long sigh. Even now, I'm still hoping I could meet him again.

I sighed as I stared at my reflection in the mirror.

"Elsa?" I heard a voice accompanied by five knocks on my door. I quickly knew it was Anna "It's a great weather outside, let's play?" she added excitedly.

"Wait a second!" I replied back as I check myself in the mirror for the last time.

"Ok…done. Coming!" I said as I ran to the door to meet my sister.

When I opened it, Anna greeted me with a big smile "Let's go! Let's go!"

I giggled "No need to hurry, Anna. We got the whole day to play" I said as we both ran through the corridor.

Although we're in the middle of summer, I turned the whole palace courtyard into a winter wonderland. We did the usual things we do when we're out playing. Ice skating, building a snowman (Olaf), and snowball fights. This time, we agreed to slide on the snow using a sled made of ice.

"Stand back a little, Anna" I said as I pull up my sleeves. Anna obeyed and she backed away a little.

My powers are getting stronger, and sometimes I can't control them. Who knows what would happen if I accidentally summoned a blizzard storm out of nowhere.

After I confirmed that Anna was on a safe zone, I tried to focus then stretched my arms in front of me.

Ok. Concentrate. Not too much, Elsa. Just a tiny bit.

I thought, trying to limit my powers as much as possible.

After a few seconds, a breeze of magic came out from my palms. It hovered through the air into the ground. Slowly, the snow began to rise up and formed a sled like shape before it materialized into a solid ice.

There it is! An ice sled with snowflake decorations that looked like someone chiseled them. I smiled as I stared at my masterpiece.

"Come on Anna!" I called my sister who was waiting patiently behind me.

"Coming Elsa!" She replied.

Both of us gathered beside it. As expected, it was perfect. Anna can't help but to smile and adore my creation.

"You're so cool, Elsa!" She exclaimed.

"Yeah… I'm cool alright…" I said. Anna seemed to understand what I meant by that and we both giggled.

*Thud*

A dull thud stopped our giggling.

*THUD*

Then it was followed by a louder noise like something heavy falling to the ground.

*Gasp* "What was that?" Anna gasped as she hid behind me.

Of course I was scared too, but I'm the older sister and I have to protect Anna from any danger, even if I have to use this ice power of mine.

"Anna, stay behind me…" I said as I scanned around to look for any hostiles.

Suddenly, I felt Anna pulling my sleeves. I looked to her and her finger was pointing into somewhere "Elsa, look!"

Not far from us, near the building, I saw someone lying down in the snow. I slowly approached them.

Ok, Elsa. Relax and be prepared. There's a stranger in the courtyard and we have no idea if he's – a kid?

I stopped when I had a better look of the stranger. He was a kid, maybe around my age.

It's the first time I'd seen him but I felt something weird. I don't know what it was but it was like I've met him before, but I can't remember when and how.

"Hey! Hey!" I tapped his shoulder but he's not answering.

Is he dead?

I thought. But I saw that he was breathing.

I gasped when I saw some bloodstained snow at his sides.

"Mama! Papa! Someone is hurt! Help!" I shouted with all my might. A few seconds later, my parents came rushing with some of the attendees.

I pulled the stranger into my lap.

Please, don't die.
