The Unexpected Visitors

Elsa paced back and forth nervously in the town hall, trying to steady her breath. She glanced out the window at the small crowd already gathered.

It was getting bigger by the minute.

Elsa's hands started to tremble. She had seemed to forget everything that she practiced. Her words, her confidence, everything she had been practicing for today… Gone.

No, she thought, I can't do this. I don't even know what to say anymore. What if I screw up, what will the people think of me?

A gentle hand touched her arm and Elsa snapped back into reality.

" Hey Elsa, it's ok, you can do this, you'll be fine."

The voice came from her little sister Anna.

Elsa slowly turned to face her trying her best not to look upset.

Despite her best efforts she still couldn't.

" Elsa, listen, you don't have to worry about anything, I'll be with you every step of the way."

" Anna… I don't think I can do this. I might stutter then what? What will people think of me then?

" Elsa… really? We've talked over this more than ten times already. You'll be fine. It will all come back to you. Trust me.

" Besides, maybe if you do well, you may attract some… good looking gentlemen."

" Anna!" Elsa hissed. She inwardly groaned. Her sister was always like this. Teasing her about 'cute boys' who might be interested in her. " Now is not the time."

" Elsa, it's ok, do you realize how beautiful you actually look?"

Elsa hadn't. She had spent hours in the morning doing her make-up, but she had been so worried and nervous that she didn't even seem care how she looked.

She hadn't realized how cold it was

" Brr… Elsa… could… y-you like make the t-temperature a bit w-warmer… please."

Elsa gasped as she saw that it was snowing lightly inside the room.

" Oh no… Anna I'm so sorry."

Elsa quickly melted the snow, returning the room to its normal temperature.

" There that's better. Elsa, I believe in you. You can do this, believe me."

" Thanks Anna, you always encourage me. Without you I don't think that I can…"

Ting-Tong, Ting-Tong

A loud bell started to ring as the hour struck midday.

It was time.

Elsa stood up and started to make her to the door.

" Elsa," Anna's voice stopped her at the door, " remember, just breathe…"

Elsa took a deep breath.

I can do this.

I will do this.

For Arendelle.

For Anna…

She opened the door, and walked out…

The hooded man waited in the market place, trying to blend in just in case the men in the bar he had knocked out, came out looking for him.

Phew, that was too close!

Now as he came to think about it, the man realized how close he had been to dying. If he were even half a second to late, the knife would have probably pierced his neck, and right now he would be lying on the floor with a pool of blood around him, slowly bleeding to death.

Damn, he thought, I really have to stop getting into fights. One day, its gonna cost me my life.

He was right.

This wasn't the man's first fight. He had been in plenty of others, some of which were harder and more dangerous than the one he just had in the bar.

And some which had nearly killed me as well. He thought grimly.

The man's thoughts were suddenly interrupted as a loud bell started to ring.

It is already midday. Time travels fast, doesn't it?

The big crowd in the market place suddenly shifted toward the town hall.

I wonder what's happening.

As if someone had voiced his thoughts, the massive wooden doors of town hall were suddenly flung open and a very beautiful young woman suddenly walked out. A flurry of ice followed her every step and she conjured small ice sculptures into the air as she walked down the small flight of stairs.

The crowd was quiet.

Everyone was in awe.

Anyone who gazed upon her couldn't turn their eyes away. She was wearing a beautiful crystal-blue dress made of ice, with small intricate snowflakes that shone like emeralds in the sun. A long, transparent cape swept the ground behind her and her long, platinum blond hair was braided loosely down her left shoulder, the snowflake incrustations brightly glinting in the sunlight. Everyone was mesmerized. With her pale, bare neck and shoulders that seemed to glow like crystals in the sun, her beauty was simply: indescribable.

No one had even seemed to notice the slightly shorter ginger-haired girl standing next to the young woman, accompanied by a tall, muscular, mountain man with blond hair.

The hooded man suddenly gasped as he realized who the beautiful woman was.

Queen Elsa of Arendelle

Yes, he had heard stories of her, but he had never thought that she would be this young…and this stunning.

Like everyone else, the man was to hypnotized to say anything. So he just stood there, mouth hanging open like an idiot, as the queen started to address the crowd.

" Citizens of Arendelle, I am here to talk about the Christmas Ball that will be coming up very soon… "

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It was over.

Elsa had done it.

She had done her speech… without fail.

The crowd was now applauding and Elsa had never felt better in her life. She breathed a sigh of relief.

Elsa squeaked as she suddenly felt a pair of arms sneak and hug her waist.

" See, I told you that you could do it. You just had to believe in yourself." Said an all-to-familiar voice.

" Thanks to you Anna. You were right, all I had to do was calm down and it would all come back. I-I really don't think I could've done it without you. "

" Huh, when am I wrong?"

Elsa laughed. Then she stopped abruptly.

She had seen something, out of the corner of her eyes.

She saw something that made her veins turn to ice.

As her vision focused, Elsa saw 5 hooded men, all with their faces concealed.

They were pushing through the crowd.

Coming straight for her and her sister…

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Just like the queen, the hooded man had also seen the 5 assassins. They were slowly advancing toward her, blocking all the possible exit points.

Great, they are coming for her.

The man took stock of the situation. There were 5 guys. Each armed with swords and daggers. They were trying to blend with the crowd, making hard for the young man see them.

At this distance he was practically useless. They were too far away for him to get to them. He started to panic. They were going to kill the queen. He had to do something.

He looked up, and his heart skipped a beat.

They were getting closer.

Without even realizing, the young man's hands had started to move toward his bow and arrow.

They were now 20 meters away.

The man pulled an arrow out of is quiver.

15 meters

He nocked the arrow into place.

10 meters… they were closing in on the queen.

The man's fingers slightly trembled. He took a deep breath and pulled back the bowstring.

5 meters… the nearest attacker had pulled out a knife.

It was now or never.

The man aimed at the attacker with the knife.

And released his arrow…

OKKKKKKK… so how was that? I ended with a cliffhanger just like I said. Don't worry. You will all find out what happens in the next chapter.

Over the next week, updating might be a bit slow because I have my exams I hate it! But trust me, I will write chapter 4 as soon as possible. So see you then…
