On to the story! {Summary: It's raining, and the two sisters have to find something to do. Idea from bananas-rule-2015. Elsa 7, Anna 4.}

One cold February morning, seven-year-old Elsa knelt on the window seat in her and Anna's room, wishing it would hurry up and stop raining. It was a Saturday, so she didn't even have to do lessons. But she was downright bored. Elsa could go outside in the freezing cold rain without risking any ill effects, but her little sister wasn't allowed outside because she might catch cold. Not only did Elsa not particularly want to play outside alone, she'd been forbidden to go out because it 'wasn't fair to Anna'. I don't think that's fair to me though. It's not my fault Anna isn't immune to the cold like me… Elsa jumped when she felt something tap her on the shoulder. "Oh, hi Anna," she said absently.

"Elsa, I'm BOOORRRRED!" four-year-old Anna complained, flopping down on the floor. "What're we suppos'd do all day?"

Elsa sighed. "I don't know. I want to go outside! I wish I could make it stop raining or make it warm up outside or something…"

Anna hopped up as an idea suddenly popped into her head. "Why don't you just try?!" she asked excitedly.

"Try what?" Elsa asked. "Oh, wait, no, no, no, no way am I trying that!" she exclaimed as realization dawned on her on just what Anna meant. "Can you imagine how much trouble I'd get into if it actually worked and Mama and Papa found out I did it? Although I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work anyway, though…Besides, altering a natural storm would be kind of creepy, don't you think?" Creepy but really, really cool, that is…

Anna pouted. Why on earth would her big sister think that idea was creepy? If Elsa could do that, then the two of them could go outside together. I don't want Elsa getting in trouble though. "Can you mess with the temper-ture only in our room?"

Elsa bit her lip, thinking whether she should do that or not. What if I can and then don't know how to switch it back to normal? Wait, that's silly. I've always been able to get rid of anything else I make. I'm going to try it. "Okay, I'll try. But don't be mad if it doesn't work." She closed her eyes in concentration, trying to lower the temperature around her. "Did it work?" Elsa asked. "Oh, cool, it did!" she said, answering her own question. Elsa could feel that the air was a bit cooler, but she couldn't tell exactly how much.

"Feels 'xactly th' same over here," Anna informed her.

Elsa plopped down on the floor next to her little sister. "I swear, I did too drop the temperature! But wait a second…I didn't over here on the floor?" She hopped up and ran back to where she'd been standing when she was trying to alter the temperature. "And yet I did over here…Anna, come check for yourself. Maybe my powers are messing up my temperature perception."

"What's temper-ture pre-cep-tion?" Anna asked, running over to her sister. "Cool, you DID make it colder! There's a bubble of cold over here!"

"The way I feel how hot or cold it is," Elsa explained. "Let me try again! Maybe I can cool a bigger area this time." She closed her eyes and tried to drop the temperature again. "Did it work?"

Anna shivered and clapped her hands in excitement. "Awesomely awesome!" she squealed. She started trying to see where Elsa's "bubble" of cold ended. "You made it all the over here!" she said proudly as she stood near their door.

Elsa grinned, pleased with her new knowledge of what she could do. "I'm gonna try again." She did the same thing once more, concentrating with all her might. "How far did I make it this time?"

Anna backed against their door. "'Bout an inch from the door," she giggled. "Elsa, why're you panting a little?"

"That's…hard," Elsa replied. "Too tiring. Maybe I should-"


Just then, they heard a knock on their door. Anna opened their door. "Hi Mama," she said. "Looky what Elsa did!"

Idun took all of three steps into the girls' room before backing straight out into the hall again. "Elsa, what did you do in there? It's freezing! You're going to make your sister sick or something."

Elsa suddenly remembered something she had read a few days before and felt very irritated. "You don't get sick from simply being cold. I read it in a science book," she said in a slightly smart-alecky tone. "We were just playing…seeing if I could do something. Cool the air down. And I can."

"Please fix the air or whatever you did back to normal, Elsa," Idun said. "And do lose the attitude. It's unbecoming of a princess."

Elsa sighed, closed her eyes, and returned the temperature to its original state. "Did I fix it?" And I do not have a 'tude. It's true-you DON'T get sick from simply being cold!

"Yeah, you did," Anna said.

"What would you two like for lunch?" Idun asked.

"Choc'late," Anna said, just as Elsa said, "Pizza. Like we had when that guest came that one time? It was yummy."

"Definitely no chocolate for lunch, but I will see what Gerda can do about the pizza."

"Okay," Elsa said.


Five minutes later, the two girls were back to wondering what to do. Finally, Elsa said, "Do you want to play impersonations?"

Anna giggled. "You mean do I want to watch YOU do imper'nations. And yeah!"

Elsa giggled and walked a few feet away from Anna. "Guess who I am?" She put both hands to her chest as she said in a rather deep, nasal voice, "As your closest partner in trade, I must offer you this epic deal that only I benefit from!"

Anna cracked up laughing. "That weird teeny man from Weaseltown!"

"Yeah…I still think he really does cheat Papa though," Elsa said in her normal voice. "Okay, new one…" She put her hands where pockets would be if she were wearing pants and began striding about with her nose in the air. Elsa paused and said, "Well, well, how nice to see you, Agdar-King Agdar, I daresay; I do apologize."

"Southern Isles king," Anna said instantly. "He is such a snob!"

Elsa laughed. "I agree! Hmm, let's see… 'Oh, Elsa, get that away from meeee! I don't like snakes!'" she squealed in a high-pitched voice.

Anna stuck out her tongue. "Me, but I don' sound like that!"

"Yes you do."

"No, I don't."

"Do, too."

"Do not!"

"Do too! You know what, let's do something else," Elsa cut off their pointless argument. "Wait, actually I have one more. Don't worry; I know you'll like this one." She stood with her hands on her hips and said, "You dum-dums leave Elsa alone! She's MY sister, an' don' you forget 'hat! Elsa could pop you good if she wanted to!"

Instead of laughing, Anna's face grew sad. "We got in big trouble for fightin' that day. And those other kids were really mean to you an' you were all upset an' then mad…"

Elsa immediately regretted bringing the incident up at all. She and Anna had been playing down by the fjord the previous fall, minding their own business, when several other kids a little older than Elsa tried to make them 'move, because it's not your place'. Elsa had informed the kids that she and her sister did not have to move, even if they weren't the princesses of Arendelle; the other kids had gotten mad and started picking on her; Anna had said the exact speech that Elsa had just reiterated; and to make a long story short, both princesses had ended up throwing a few punches. (Elsa had seriously considered breaking the rule of 'no powers outside the castle', but she didn't, figuring she would get in less trouble for "just" regular fighting.) In the end, Elsa and Anna had gotten in a heap of trouble for the whole thing, despite the fact that it hadn't really been their fault in the first place. "I don't care what those stupid kids said now," Elsa assured Anna. "And to be quite honest, I am not sorry I punched some of them, either," she added, cracking her knuckles to prove her point. I just wish I'd known what I was doing and hit them harder! That whole thing was not fair.

"Ew, Elsa, don't do that!" Anna said. She hated the noise cracking knuckles made.

Elsa gave her sister a sideways glance. "You mean this?" she asked, making the irritating noise again. Anna grabbed a pillow off her bed and began smacking Elsa with it. Elsa showered Anna with snow and began giggling. "Got you back, Anna!"

Anna shook the snow off and huffed in annoyance. "Don't do that."

"You mean this?" Elsa showered Anna with snow again.

Anna stuck out her tongue at her sister. "Not funny. C'n we make 'coctions from stuff in th' kitchen?"

"It's concoctions, and I wouldn't mind except it makes a huge mess and we'll get in trouble for it," Elsa replied. She stood and dropped backwards into a bridge. "Watch this!"

Before Elsa could do anything else, Anna jumped up, said "Show-off," and began chasing Elsa (who just proceeded to 'walk' about, still in her bridge position), around the room. Elsa figured Anna was not trying very hard to catch her, because she was quite certain Anna could run quite a bit faster than Elsa's bridge-walking. "I'm an inverted crab!" Elsa said.

"Show-off! Elsa's being a show-off!"

Elsa finally stopped and stood back up from her bridge. "You could try it too, you know. It's not hard."

"My arms don' hold me up right," Anna complained.

"I could help you," Elsa offered.

A minute later, both girls were collapsed on the floor in giggles. "Anna, maybe if you'd STOP GIGGLING, you'd quit losing your balance and stop falling over!" Elsa exclaimed. "You were just all floppy and not holding your own weight up at all!"

"Piggyback ride," Anna demanded.

"You're being bossy. No."

"I'm gonna tell on you!"

"I don't care," Elsa informed her. "Hey…you wanted to make concoctions. I'll bet we have some stuff we could use in the bathroom!"

"Cool!"


The two of them found the bucket they usually used for mud…or sand…or lizards…or water…or anything else they might put in it from outside. Elsa filled it partway up with water from the sink while Anna dug around under the sink for things to put in the mixture they were going to make. "Elsa, we haven't got any liquid-y or goopy stuff in here except shampoo and this," Anna said, holding up a bottle of hydrogen peroxide.

"We'll have to get some other stuff from downstairs after lunch, I suppose," Elsa told her. I wonder what happens if you soak, like, wood or something in that hydrogen peroxide stuff…nah, I better not do that… "C'mon, let's just do something else."

"Like what? I just wanna go outsiiiiddde!" Anna drew out 'outside' to accentuate her point.

Elsa made a face. "Me too." She absently began twirling a snowball between her hands; then began making it bigger. I wonder if I can make my snow explode… Elsa concentrated hard, increasing the pressure on the snow as she kept adding more to it.


FIVE MINUTES LATER…

Anna was rambling on and on about something while Elsa continued experimenting with her idea that the snow could explode. Finally, Elsa had heard her sister's incessant chattering long enough. "ANNA, WILL YOU PLEASE CUT IT OUT?!" she shouted finally. The intense pressure on the growing snowball suddenly made the whole thing explode with a loud bang and let out some kind of cold shockwave that nearly knocked Elsa over. Luckily Anna was already sitting on the floor, so she was unhurt as well. "It explodes," was Elsa's only comment as she glanced from her hands to the snow now stuck all over the wall and back again. But I don't think I'll try that again. That could've been dangerous if I hit somebody with it.

"Elsa, what was that?!" Anna asked, staring from her sister to the wall. "It kinda looked like a teeny thing like those shhhhhhhkepoww things at th' party we had!"

Elsa wondered what Anna meant for a minute before the answer hit her. "Oh, you mean the fireworks at the festival near the end of summer last year! Yeah, those were so cool!"

"So you made a snow shhhhhhhkepoww thing? Do it again!" Anna liked the way her pretend name for the fireworks sounded, so she kept saying it.

"I don't think so." Elsa shook her head. "It made some kind of shockwave thing. What if I hit you with it? It almost knocked me over, and I'm bigger than you and I'm the one who made it!"

Anna shrugged. "So? You could prob'ly just thaw me like anythin' else." The thought that Elsa's powers might hurt her didn't perturb her at all. She was absolutely certain that her big sister could just fix it if something bad happened.

"Maybe, but I don't want to find out. I'm not making a snow firework again…unless we're outside and you lay flat on the ground while I do it so's the shockwave thing doesn't have any chance of hurting you," Elsa said firmly. "Come on; let's go see if lunch is ready."

The two girls raced downstairs to the dining hall.


After Elsa and Anna had finished eating their (very delicious) cheese pizza for lunch, they headed down to the kitchen. "Gerda, can we have some…supplies?" Elsa asked in her most polite voice.

"What sort of supplies? Are you and Princess Anna making some sort of nasty concoction again?"

"Not nasty…just goopy and messy," Elsa said, clasping her hands behind her back as she made her best puppy-dog expression. "Pretty please? We won't make a huge mess. We'll put it in a bucket."

"Princess Elsa, you might keep it in whatever container you choose, but I have doubts your little sister here will do the same," Gerda said.

Elsa gave Anna a serious look that said You had better not make a huge mess again. "Oh yes she will," Elsa said firmly, giving Anna a pointed look.


Soon the girls were back upstairs, happily dumping things into the bucket. Shampoo, ketchup, mustard, soup, water, and more. "Ew, Anna, don't try to eat that!" Elsa exclaimed. She liked making concoctions, but she had NO desire to eat them. The mixture was gross-looking, although it was awfully amusing to swirl their hands around in it.

"Oh, Elsa!" Anna teased. "I'm gonna get you!"

"Don't dump that on me!" Elsa shrieked, although she was giggling as she watched her little sister try to pick up the bucket. "Um, maybe you should put that down. You're going to drop it and make a-"

Anna accidentally dropped the bucket, sending the icky mixture all over the floor.

"…mess," Elsa finished a moment too late as she crossed her arms.

"Oops," Anna said. "Will you help me clean it up? Please, please, pretty please?"

"I'm not the one who spilled it!" Elsa made a face at their slightly sticky concoction, now spread all over the floor. I seriously do not want to clean that up. And it's not my mess! Well, I did kind of help make the concoction, but I didn't spill it! "Oh, fine, I'll help. But you have to clean up too!"

"'Kay!"


It took a looonng time to clean up the mess, but finally the bathroom was clean again. "Never again, Anna! You make huge messes for such a little girl!" Elsa complained.

"You're a little girl too!"

"Well, I'm bigger'n you! And I didn't spill that!" Elsa ran over to the window in their room, looking outside. Her big blue eyes sparkled with excitement as she gazed outdoors. "It's not raining anymore! Do you want to go outside? I'm sick of staying indoors today." Elsa stuck one hand flat against the glass to check if it was cold or not. Well, it's just cool to me, but that probably means it's freezing outside… Elsa was still mulling over what the actual temperature was and whether or not she should take Anna outside when Anna started yanking her arm.

"C'mon, c'mon, c'mon!" Anna squealed happily.

Elsa frowned as she looked down at her sister. "You need to put on a coat and boots and mittens. You're going to freeze outside!"

"Don't wanna! I know you won't, so I don't have to either!"

"I'm immune to cold. You aren't," Elsa countered. She did own a coat and other winter things, but if she had a choice, she would go outside in a summer dress barefoot if she could get away with it.

"Well, I shan't put 'em on if you don't!"

Elsa decided she would put on her winter clothes and just…discard them a few minutes after they went outside. "Okay."


Fifteen minutes later, Elsa and Anna slipped out of the castle and went out to the castle gardens. The second they were in the castle gardens, Elsa started shedding all those layers of winter clothes. Off went her hat. Off went her mittens. And the boots and the coat. There. Much better. Elsa hated wearing all those clothes-they felt constricting to her and made her feel way too hot, unless she was purposely cooling herself off.

"Elsa, that's no fair," Anna whined when her sister made her leave her own winter clothes on.

"Sure it is! Not having to wear winter clothes is just a special privilege I get by being abnormal!" Elsa tossed a snowball at her sister and started giggling.

"I thought bein' 'bnormal wasn't a good thin'," Anna said, sounding puzzled. "I like you like you are! Elsa special!"

Elsa bit her lip, realizing she had inadvertently opened a topic that she didn't particularly understand at all nor did she want to talk about. I've heard Mama and Papa call me that when they thought I wasn't listening, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't meant to be a good thing…But I DO like me the way I am. I don't really get it. "Um…don't worry about it, Anna. I was just fooling around. But you still have to leave your winter stuff on!"

Anna wasn't listening anymore; she was trying to climb a tree now. Elsa grinned and scrambled up the tree after her sister. "Careful, Anna! Some of the branches are slippery!"

"Yeah, I know! I know Elsa'll catch me if I fall!"

Elsa shook her head and kept a watchful eye on her little sister. You trust me too much. You could very well fall right on my head and both of us would go splat or something.


Elsa and Anna settled themselves on a fat branch about ten feet off the ground, their legs dangling. "Thank you for trusting me, Anna," Elsa said seriously, sounding older than her seven years.

Anna looked puzzled, not quite understanding why her sister was so serious all of a sudden, but she did the best thing her four-year-old mind could come up with. She gave Elsa a big hug.

Elsa hugged her sister back just as it began pouring again so hard they could barely see. We shouldn't have come out here… Struck by a sudden idea, Elsa bit her lip and formed a bubble of ice around the two of them. It would crack fairly easily, but it would keep them from getting wet.

Anna laughed and snuggled closer to Elsa. "We got a ice treehouse!"

"I suppose so!" Elsa wasn't too worried about her sister catching cold since she was all bundled up in her coat and everything. "Let's just stay here till it stops raining again," she suggested.

"Yay!"

Elsa smiled, and the two sisters stayed in their icy hideout on the branch for a long time, just talking and being silly. The day might have been cold and rainy and icky, but for Elsa and Anna, it turned out perfect.

A/N: The end.:)

Random info...the timeline of the one-shots so far is:

1)Rainy Day Games (February; Elsa 7, Anna 4)

2)Ice Cream Escapade (uhhh...shortly thereafter?; Elsa 7, Anna 4)

3) It's Not MY Fault! (July; Elsa 7 [she turns 8 at the end], Anna 4)

4)To the North Mountain (March; Elsa 8, Anna 5)

5)Let's Go Tree Climbing (early April; Elsa 8, Anna 5) [to me, the accident takes place about one/two weeks later...they see the Northern Lights and I think it stops being visible around the middle of April. Not positive, but that's the timeline in my head anyways.:)]
