(A/N: And now I present to you...chapter two! :D)
Anna woke up to her infamous bed head. She sighed and yawned loudly and stretched her arms up over her head. The redhead blinked a couple of times before remembering that she had spent a night in the woods. Luckily, the princess was in a cabin, where no wild animals would hurt her.
But they could've easily hurt Kristoff and Sven.
Anna immediately scrambled off the bottom bunk and rushed outside. The tent was still in pristine condition, though the flaps were opened. As she predicted, when she poked her head inside, neither her boyfriend nor his reindeer were to to be seen. Anna stood up and looked around the premises.
"Kristoff? Sven...!"
She squinted her pretty blue eyes. Though the young lady had to do this gesture, her eyesight was outstanding. Anna was able to see people and, or, objects from several feet away. Apparently, they'd been sitting on a beach that was located maybe a mile away; although, this time, she couldn't see them. She'd heard Sven attempting to communicate with his two-legged partner. The ginger smiled and made her way through the neck of the woods.
"Hey, Anna!" The blonde-headed man called out from his spot on the sand. "We were wondering when you'd wake up! Our new friend Merida decided to join us!"
"Meri-wha?"
Kristoff chuckled and gestured towards said person. It was the girl with the bright, curly, kinky orange hair. "Merida. Our camping neighbor."
Anna's eyes followed the direction of his finger and saw that she was sitting on the dock with a fishing line and pole. Her expression was molded into a cross between determination and impatience. The princess of Arendelle smiled and walked towards Merida.
"Hi," the older female spoke. "I know you met my boyfriend, Kristoff, yesterday, but I'd like to formally introduce myself. You see, I'm-"
"Princess Anna from Arendelle."
Said woman blinked in surprise. "I-I am... H-how'd you know that, though?"
"I've heard a lot about you, obviously," Merida explained. "I knew who you two were from the beginning; I just didn't care, to be honest." Anna's kind approach gradually dissolved. "Don't get me wrong, I love what your town has done for my country, and all of those other nations out there...but it's not like I oughtta worship you for what your parents have done. I mean, you're just a princess. You haven't really done anything."
Anna looked to Kristoff for support, but he was too busy skipping rocks across the ocean. She turned her attention back to Merida. "I saved the Queen from a beheading."
The younger ginger simply shrugged. She then rose to her feet and reeled in her catch. It was a real haul; a large bass! Anna screamed at the enormous sight and fell back into her boyfriend's lap. He chuckled and glanced over, only for his jaw to drop in the utmost shocking disbelief. Merida smirked their way as she threw the flopping fish into the net behind her. The princess of Scotland quickly wrapped it up tight so her catch couldn't escape.
"I'd love to share," she began. "But I've got plenty of mouths to feed...so I'll see you all tonight at the public bonfire."
Anna's ears nearly perked up at the sound of that. "Bonfire? Where?"
"It'll be around here somewhere, maybe at the edge of the woods."
"How many people?" She took a step closer.
Merida cocked a orange brow her way. "I dunno, maybe ten or more. Why?"
Anna squealed eagerly and grabbed Kristoff's hands as she jumped up and down with excitement. "This is great! We'll get to meet more camping neighbors, honey!"
The mountain man cocked his head and slightly twisted his upper lip in exasperation. "It's like the whole world moved out here for the summer!"
"I know!" Anna exclaimed. "Ooh, this'll be so fun! C'mon!" She pulled him up and dragged him towards their spot. "We've gotta invite Elsa!"
