The first section will be the only one from Elsa's point of view then the rest will be all from Anna's Anyway so remember how I asked about wether or not you wanted a modern day Elsanna, and if you wanted them to be strangers or sisters. So umm yeah, leave a comment in the reviews so I can make you guys happy. I am on summer vacation now so I will be able to write a lot more chapters. Also, if you guys want to, please leave a suggestions. I already have my plot but suggestions would help:) Enjoy!
I woke up, not feeling any of the effects of the alcohol. I'm not sure why, but I have never felt hangovers before. Maybe its because I slowly built an immunity over the years without Anna. I was slightly cold, although it didn't bother me, so I folded the quilt so that it covered most of us, making a sort of like a sleeping bag that was unzipped. I glanced over at Anna, who was starting to stir. She sat up and then got on her feet.
"Anna? What are you doing?" She turned around, startled, as if she wasn't expecting me to be there.
"Huh? O-oh, I jush was gettin up. I not really sh-sure why. My tummy kinda hurts." She then burned and leaned over into the bush and spewed two and a half bottles of wine, staining the white roses and the grass beneath her. "Phew, I fill mush better." She then resumed her spot on the quilt and sat down. She seemed like she was a bit more sober. She looked a little sick, but I assumed it was just from massive intoxication. "Actually Elsa, my head is really hot, I don't feel totally better." I put my hand to her forehead. It felt extremely hot, like she was coming down with a fever. I made a small ice pack then laid her down. After putting some clothes on us both, I left Anna to go inform someone. I figured it was better to let her stay and sleep rather than make her stand up and possibly make her feel worse.
"Kai?" I called as soon as I entered the castle. "Kai?! Where are you? Please come here, this is urgent."
"Yes milady, one second." I heard his voice, then saw him come around the corner. "Is everything alright?"
"I'm not sure. She threw up this morning and her head is burning up. Could you call the castle physician. I think she is coming down with something."
"Oh! Yes, my goodness, why didn't you tell me. You should bring her back here while I get the nurse so that she can be seen sooner."
When I got back to Anna, the ice pack had melted from the heat of her forehead. I quickly fixed my hair then changed from a nightgown into a silky long blue dress, then the same with Anna, so that anyone who wasn't castle staff wouldn't be alarmed. Finally, we made it to her chambers inside the castle. I cooled her bed slightly then set her down. Then I wove my hand into the air and got rid of her dress and covered her in a snow blanket to keep her cool. Then I placed an icepack around her forehead. Through all of that, Anna was still sleeping. There was a knock at her door.
"Come in." I said plainly. I was too concerned with Anna to worry about who it was.
"Hello milady," a short and stalky woman entered the room and curtsied, " I am Novalie. I was called by Kai to check up on Anna."
"Ah yes. Please hurry." I walked over to the window and stared out into the early hours of Arendelle. My mind was running at a million miles.
Will she be ok? Is this my fault? Is this some sort of cruel punishment for our love for each other? It can't be the flu, it's the middle of summer, so what is it? What if there's no cure? What if she's in a coma? What if she can never speak again? Her head is so hot, there has to be some sort of brain damage. What if this changes the way she feels about me? How will she ever forgive me? What if she never speaks to me? What is she's the one shutting out me? What if she got me sick and we both died? What would happen to Arendelle? What would be the future of the people? What will happen if she's still sick in two days when Ulfric arrives?
A soft tap on the shoulder interrupted my thoughts.
"Milady, I must inform you, I cannot tell what Anna's illness is. I have a few theories but none of them can be concluded based on her symptoms. I will return tomorrow and check on her again. Please try not to fret too much. The situation isn't critical and her condition is stable. "
"O-oh-ok. Thank you so much. Please close the door when you leave, Novalie."
She sensed my fear and gave me a hug then pulled away. "I promise you, Queen Elsa, she will be fine. Be positive, the better energy will help Anna feel better."
Anna continued to sleep through the morning until around lunch time when she finally came to.
"Elsa, why am I in my room? What's wrong, have you been crying?" I bolted up from my chair and ran to her side then gave her a huge hug.
"Anna, this morning you were very ill, we had a doctor come check on you and she's not sure what's wrong with you. How do you feel?"
"Honestly, I feel fine. I'm really tired, my feet hurt and I feel a bit nauseas but that's really it. Could you ask someone to bring me water. I'm parched, I feel so dehydrated."
"Of course." I ran to the door to fetch her some water and found Kai and Gerda waiting outside. "Anna's woke up, she seems fine but she needs water. And do you mind waiting outside so I can talk to her."
"Of course, milady, Kai hurry with the water and bring her a pitcher too so she doesn't dehydrate." I walked back into the room.
"Water's on the way Anna." I closed the door behind me, "but can I please ask you something? Why did you suddenly feel so much better all of the sudden?"
"I don't know. But this morning, I just woke up and felt so nauseas. I don't know but I still don't feel great and I threw up all of the alcohol so it can't be a hangover."
Kai knocked on the door and delivered the water to Anna. She immediately gulped it down then filled up another glass of water and sipped it. Then she went to her restroom to pee. "Hmm, I don't think my feet just hurt, they're also kinda swollen. I don't know this is really weird but I feel better. I am still tired, I really want a nap, with you." She winked at me before slipping under the covers. I quickly followed and laid in bed next to her. Her warmth radiated onto me. She rolled over to face me and gave me a long plain kiss before falling into a deep slumber.
I was rolling, tumbling. I felt as though I was floating, my head in the clouds, but my feet were still tied to the found, keeping me from completely floating away. Images started floating through my head. I saw Pabbie and Bulda, carrying some sort of thing away. I could tell that at the time the two stone trolls were completely unfamiliar to me. I tried to think even further but whatever further memories I had were blocked. The same memory kept repeating, after a few times I could tell that they were dragging away a person. My body. I could tell it had been abused. My eyes were open and I didn't look like I had been abused enough to die, but I was still pretty banged up. Then the memory stopped again. It kept on repeating, as if my subconscious was trying to open up my memories, but there was nothing there. It kept repeating until the dream became truly terrifying. I woke up and quickly sat up.
My heart was pounding so hard that I thought it was going to fly out of my chest. There was a thin layer of sweat covering my forehead and chest. I could tell it was morning because of the shadows of the sun. Elsa was no where to be found. I stepped out of the bed and my feet hurt so bad. I sat back down and examined my feet. They were still swollen from the previous night.
Why are my feet like this? This is really strange. Oh no. I think I'm gonna hurl.
I sprinted for the toilet just in time from my body to pour out all of the water I had drank before I went to bed yesterday. My throat burnt so bad.
Ugh, why am I feeling so sick again. Well, at least I'm not feeling as tired.
I walked out of my room, my feet throbbing with every step. I walked over to Elsa's chambers and walked in without knocking.
I've knocked too many times and not been let in to have to knock now.
Elsa was sitting in her chair reading a book. She sat up straight and shut the book putting it back into the book shelf parallel to her chair.
"How are you feeling?" she asked with a bit of anxiety in her voice.
"Ehh. My feet are still swollen and now my back hurts a little too. I threw up again this morning but I feel better than yesterday, not as tired. But I had a nightmare last night and I don't really wan't to talk about it, but we need to go see the trolls. They were a big part of my dream. I think they know what's wrong with me."
"Wait, how do you know about the trolls?"
"Kristoff took me there when you accidentally, well you know. Wait how did you know about the trolls?"
"I really think we should just save that for later. Your health is more important."
"What? Really you can't tell me? Seriously I think that my condition isn't even existent. Probably food poisoning."
"Well fine, but I just didn't want to talk about it. When we were younger we were playing and I was using my powers and I started to make a sort of stair thing for you to jump across but you went too fast and I slipped and accidentally struck you in the head. Papa knew where to take you; the trolls. They erased your memories of my powers to help you recover from it. I just don't really want to talk about things like that since I did it twice, both by accident."
I just stood there, not really knowing what to say, kind of wanting to stay in a pissy mood. "Well waterer, lets go."
We approached the home of the trolls on horses that Elsa had made. The smell of the wet forest entered my nose and I should smell that somewhere close, someone was building a fire. "Do you smell that?"
"Smell what?"
"Really? Ugh, whatever never mind." I said slightly grumpily.
We dismounted the horses then walked to the center of the boulders. They started to roll over to us, tumbling around and making the ground rumble. Pabbie walked over to us and sighed.
"You have figured out the truth?"
"What," I say confused, "no I came because I did not know what the truth was. Last night I had a dream well more of a nightmare, but that's not really important, but it was just the exact same thing repeating of you and Bulda carrying a person from my body on the ground. I wasn't dead but I was hurt. I could tell it was before Kristoff brought me to you guys, but I'm not sure how I know that it actually happened. I don't know, something crazy I guess." I sniffed the air again, this time I could smell meat being cooked, and the smell made me feel very nauseas. "Ok, seriously, does no one else smell the campfire or meat being cooked, it's kind of gross."
"Anna, what are you talking about?" Elsa asked me, a bit more concerned.
"Ugh never mind. Hey, do you think you could make me a chair, my feet and back are killing me." Elsa quickly made a chair of ice for me. "So Pabbie, why am I feeling so sick and what happened to me?" He drew in a deep breath then started telling the story.
"It was a three months, two weeks, and three days ago to be exact. You were walking through a forest, talking to yourself about how excited you were for your sisters coronation that was coming up in three months. You didn't care that it was still three months away. You had such a beautiful light in your eyes, it made me so happy. Me and Bulda had been walking through the forest not for any particular reason. You did not notice us and our paths crossed with both of us going in separate directions. After about five minutes we heard a very faint scream. Your scream. Rolled into balls and rolled in your direction. We went as fast as we could but it took too long and when we got back some disgusting scum hard just finished," he paused for a moment with so much pain in his own eyes from retelling the event, "raping you. I quickly ran after the man and asked Bulda to take care of you. Kristoff happened to be walking by and he knocked the man over the head leaving him unconscious. Then I had him bring the man to the nearest prison. Kristoff never saw you or the pain in your eyes but when he returned, I wiped his memory to be sure. I walked over to Bulda. You were ok but we both carried you away from the scene to a more secluded location. When I looked in your eyes, the pain and absolute terror that fell from the tears in your eyes, it was terrible. I erased your memory. The man who did this remains in jail, imprisoned for life. Everyday after the incident I feared you would return, maybe knowing what had happened or worse, that what I feared would happen did."
I looked over at Elsa. Her eyes were filled with tears. She had fallen to her knees and her cheeks were stained with tears. My own eyes became slightly blurry but because I had no recollection of it, it was more of a shock than anything. Elsa looked up at Pabbie. "What do you mean what you feared would happen?" she asked.
"Elsa think about it. Your sister has been having nausea in the mornings. Her feet are swollen. Her back hurts. She has become more moody, more irritable. She can smell things that no one else can smell. The smell of meat makes her feel sick. And I would guess that her appetite for sex has increased." Elsa blushed for a second at the last one, which thankfully the trolls didn't catch onto. Obviously, though, she hadn't put together what everything meant. But the realization dawned on me.
"I- I'," I couldn't get the words out, "I 'm p-pregnant?" I asked with a very squeaky and shy voice, hoping that I was wrong. Even though I had said the word, it still hadn't really clicked in my head yet that there was life in my stomach." He nodded his head then walked over to me and placed his hand on my stomach.
"I would say, Anna, that you are and a half month's along. The baby, should you choose to keep it rather than abort, will be due mid January next year."
I grabbed my stomach and looked down.
My breasts have grown a little but it still doesn't seem like reality.
But I did notice that I was starting to show. There was a faint but noticeable bump. Not the shape of a belly of fat, but the shape of a belly that holds a growing child. It took a while, but when it did, it hit me hard that I was in fact, going to be a mother in six and a half months. Elsa had stopped crying and instead had a small smile on her face.
"You're having a baby. I know the circumstances of it are unfortunate but still." She gave me a huge hug, "Anna, I will always be here for you through this and after."
Although the circumstances did suck, it was still an exciting experience. No matter how disgusting the reality of it was, I was going to remain positive no matter what, I wasn't going to let the fact that I was going to give birth out of wedlock through rape get me down. I was turning bad news into something beautiful. I returned the hug to Elsa.
(Ok I know this kinda had a bumpy feel to it, but the next chapters will be better. I'm sorry, it's all due to plot development=)
