Elsa was quick to help Olaf as he lay on the sleeping bag covered in sweat. His breathing became heavier and his fever was rising, concerning Elsa greatly. She heard the tent zipping open but didn't bother to see who it was, she continued to dab the cold dishcloth on the boy's forehead.
Then she felt two slender arms wrap around her waist from behind and smiled. Anna placed her chin on the blondes shoulder and Elsa placed her hand on the freckled arm. Letting out a sigh, Elsa turned her head to see Anna and kissed her cheek.
"How is he?" She knew the answer, she could tell just by looking at him that he wasn't doing good. She just wanted to start a conversation and felt Elsa take a deep breath. "Not good, he needs medicine." Anna frowned slightly and Elsa turned around in her arms. The red-head smiled at her and placed her hands on her cheeks, than sliding one up to her forehead and the frown came back to her face.
"Els...your getting warm," Elsa looked at her and raised an eyebrow. Then Anna kissed the blondes forehead for a better temperature reading and pulled back, frowning at her. "You sick Elsa, you should rest."
The blonde shook her head and looked back to Olaf. "I can't I need to take care of him." Anna smiled at her and then lightly pushed her back so that she was on the sleeping bag next to Olaf and Elsa smiled up at her.
"You rest Elsa, I can take care of both of you, it will be fine." She grabbed the blankets and tucked the pale blonde in, kissing her forehead and then leaning over to kiss Olaf's, which was significantly warmer than Elsa's.
"I will be right back, try to get some sleep, okay?" Elsa simply nodded and closed her eyes, Anna was pretty sure the blonde was already asleep before she even got out of the tent. As the red-head walked over to the group of people, she had a frown on her face. Rapunzel looked over at her and her eyebrows came together in confusion.
"Is Olaf okay?" Anna nodded and pointed back at the tent as she spoke to the group. "Olaf is getting worse, and now Elsa is sick." Kristoff frowned and walked over to Anna, placing a hand on her shoulder. It had been two days since Olaf first got sick, they spent their time trying to keep his fever down but failed.
Anna looked up at Kristoff and noticed the slight flush to his face. She raised an eyebrow and placed her hand on his forehead. "Kristoff! Why didn't you tell us you where sick too?" Anna almost yelled and he looked back at Eugene. Rapunzel looked at her boyfriend and frowned at him, placing a hand on his forehead.
"You both are sick and didn't bother to tell us?" Rapunzels voice was stern and she pointed to the tents. "Go, you guys need to rest." They looked at each other and then back to the two women who had serious looks on their faces. Eugene walked over to Rapunzel and placed his hands on her upper arms, rubbing them softly.
"We didn't want to worry anyone, Olaf is more important now." Anna simply shook her head and followed Rapunzels moves, pointing to the tents and stepping back from Kristoff. They two men gave up on arguing with the women and walked over to their tents.
Anna sat down and pet Sven between the ears, he let out a small wine and placed his head on her lap. Rapunzel did the same with Max and they sat in silence for a small while. Then Anna cleared her throat and sat up slightly, causing Sven to move. "We need medicine for them."
Rapunzel nodded and looked over to the truck, letting out a sigh. "We could go try to find some, the nearest town is about a good forty-five minute drive." Anna shook her head and looked back at the tents. "Someone would have to stay here to look after them."
Rapunzel nodded and then raised an eyebrow, looking at the red-head. "Hey, how come you and I aren't sick?" Anna simply shrugged her shoulders and pulled one knee up to her chest, wrapping her arms around it. "I never really got sick as a kid, I guess I have a great immune system." They both giggled slightly at that and smiled at each other.
Then Anna turned serious and looked into the green eyes of the brunette. "You should stay.." She raised a hand to stop the other woman from telling her no, and took a breath before she continued. "Your better with taking care of people, I don't really know what to do or when to know when to do it." She smiled and pet Sven again. "However I am quick, I can easily get in somewhere and get out quickly if I am by myself."
Rapunzel wanted to protest and tell her no, but she knew Anna was right, it would be quicker if she went alone. "Okay, but you are taking Sven and Max, I will not let you go without any sort of backup."
Anna just smiled at this and walked over to the truck, Rapunzel close behind her. "You know more about medicine than I do, could you write me a list of things to look for?" she handed the brunette a small notebook and a pen. Rapunzel just nodded and started to scribble some things on the paper as Anna strapped on her gun holster and grabbed a backpack.
Anna made sure her knife was attached to her belt and grabbed extra ammo, loading her desert eagle pistol and loading her bag with the ammo boxes and a few extra items. Rapunzel handed her the notebook and she placed it in her bag, zipping it up and throwing it in the back of the truck.
"Here, you might want this." Rapunzel got into the truck and pulled the front seat forward, grabbing a strange-looking backpack. Anna was confused because it didn't look like a backpack she had ever seen before, and certainly didn't look like it would fit her. Rapunzel must have noticed her confused look because she giggled and let out a whistle.
Max came running over and Rapunzel started to strap it on the dog. "Ohh, it's a dog harness." Anna let out loud and the brunette laughed again. "Yeah, we found it in a pet store, it's for service dogs but it has enough pockets on it that I'm sure you could have Max here help you carry some stuff."
Rapunzel tightened the harness on him and pet the white dogs head. "There you go boy, now don't let Anna here get hurt okay, Elsa would kill us both." she laughed and then stood up, opening the tailgate to the truck and calling the dogs. Max and Sven jumped into the back of the truck and sat down, waiting to leave.
"Don't tell anyone okay." Anna looked into green eyes and then behind them to the tents. "They don't need to be worrying about me when they are all so sick, especially Olaf." Rapunzel simply nodded and gave the red-head a hug, smiling at her. "Be careful out there okay?" Anna nodded and got into the driver seat of the truck, starting it up and driving over to the gate Kristoff and Eugene made.
Rapunzel opened it and Anna drove off, leaving the brunette to watch the truck leave, and then lock up and go tend to her sick friends.
oOoOo Anna oOoOo
She felt like she was driving forever as she went down the long empty highway. She would glance out the rearview every once in a while to see Max and Sven sitting in the back, enjoying the wind as it hit them in the face.
As the red-head got closer to the town, she noticed military vehicles and then saw a large tent. She slowed the truck down and looked around, wondering where she was. "This must have been a military base after everything broke out." she whispered to herself and pulled up next to the tent.
She turned the truck around so that it was facing back the way she came, incase she needed to make a quick get-a-way, then shut it off and opened her door. Anna walked to the back of the truck, opening the tailgate and watching as the two large dogs jumped to the ground. "Stay with me boys, no running off."
She walked over to the tent and noticed sharpie writing on the white table. -Run down! Get away from here- She also noticed smaller signs that said things to specific people, probably looking for loved ones and friends. Anna frowned at the sad small notes and reached down to pet Sven. "Come on boys, let's go get that medicine."
As she continued to walked down the road, she noticed that a lot of the stuff from the military camps was missing, probably from people who had already found this spot and picked it dry. She had her hand resting on her knife handle as she turned a street corner and she quickly stopped and hid against the building wall.
Around the corner was about eight bitters that she could see, and she felt her heart racing in her chest. Her teal eyes looked down at Sven and Max, who looked up at her, waiting for her command. Anna peaked around the corner, looking around and could have sworn that these bitters could hear her heart bouncing in her chest.
Then she noticed it, and silently cured under her breath. The large sign that said First aid over a large white tent. However, this tent was down the street filled with these damn dead people.
She looked back over at the dogs and then looked for any way around these guys. She noticed a fire escape that could take her to the roof, but she had Max and Sven with her, and they can't climb ladders.
As she was deep in thought, trying to figure out how to get to the tent, she failed to notice the bitter that was making its way to the corner she was hiding behind. She heard the groan come from him as she turned around and noticed how close he was to her.
It startled her and caused a loud squeal to escape from her throat, and she took her knife, stabbing it into the skull of the bitter. She quickly looked around the corner and noticed all the bitters walking towards her direction. "Shit..." They noticed her and all started to walk faster, causing her to jump up and pull the latter down to the fire escape.
"Run boys! Run!" she screamed to Max and Sven as she pulled herself up the ladder, making as much noise as possible so the bitters would pay attention to her and not the dogs. Once she was on the flat level of the fire escape, she looked around, trying to see where Max and Sven ran off too.
She noticed a white ball of fur jump up on the top of a car, and then jumping on the hood of an 18 wheeler he was safe from the bitters. That left Anna to frantically look for Sven. "Where did you go boy?" she scanned the area and then noticed two bitters cornering the large dog as he hunched over and growled at them, showing his teeth.
"Sven!" she let out a cry and noticed one of the bitters about to land on the dog, but then a loud bang rang through the area, and the bitters blood splattered onto the wall near the dog. Anna was confused, but then heard the loud bang again and the other bitter fell to the ground.
"Sven!?" The dog quickly ran away, heading for where Max was and soon joining the other dog. "Good boy." she whispered and then looked back over to try to find were the gun shots came from. Then she noticed a man on the roof not far from her, sniper in hand. He started to take out the other bitters gathering on the ground and Anna followed his lead.
When there where only four or five more bitters around, Anna quickly whistled for the two dogs and jumped down from the fire escape. "I hope you're not hostile." she whispered as she looked back up to the man and then ran towards the tent.
One of the bitters got her knife into the back of their skull, she pushed it upwards and then ripped it out, leaving a large gash in the bag of his head. The two dogs followed her as they ran towards the medical supplies and as she threw the flap open to the large white barrier, she let out a loud gasp.
"I should have thought this through." she said as the six bitters all turned to look at her. Her eyes skimmed the area and she noticed a lot of supplies she could use, so she couldn't leave this place without them.
Max jumped up onto one of the bitters, slamming him to the ground and scratching his large paws into the bitters head, leaving a dark and thick liquid to flow from his skull. One of the bitters close to Max started to lean down, ready to bite the dog, when Sven jumped up at him.
Anna took her knife and stabbed it into the bitters neck, but when she went to rip it out, the blade was stuck. "Shit.." As she tried to pull the knife out, another walker was walking up behind her. Anna was forced to drop the knife and the bitter fell to the ground, she turned around and kicked him, sending him backwards.
When she lifted her leg to kick him however, her wound from stabbing herself about a week ago started to hurt again. She looked over and noticed Max and Sven fighting off the last of the dead and all her attention was on this one in front of her.
She reached for her gun but notice the bitter was too close, she would never get it out in time. "Sven! Max!" she called in hopes that the two dogs could get to her, she grabbed the bitters arms and tried to keep him held back from her.
His mouth was open and he kept leaning into her neck, groaning. His skin on his arms started to peel off in the red-heads hands, making it hard for her to hold him back, and she closed her eyes.
Then she felt the pressure on her stop, and she opened her teal eyes to see the tip of a knife in his forehead. Then it pulled out and the bitter fell to the ground, leaving Anna to look at the man holding the knife behind him, a sniper strapped to his back.
They stood there and stared at each other for a few moments, then Max and Sven ran over, growling lowly at the man.
"Thanks..." she whispered and she would be lying is she said she wasn't scared to death that this man was going to kill her for the medical supplies. But what he did shocked her and left her baffled. The man bowed to her, and then held out his hand to take hers, kissing the back of it gently.
"Hello, I thought I wasn't going to make it to you in time, I was so worried." his voice sounded so sweet that Anna couldn't help but smile at him. Both the dogs stopped growling and were now simply sitting down and looking at the man.
"Well...I'm certanly glad you did." Then she remembered why she was here and pulled her bag forward, getting out the list. The man just looked at her with a raised eyebrow and she looked back up at him. "I um...I need supplies...my friends are sick." she wasn't sure If she should tell this stranger anything else.
He simply nodded and walked past Anna, she tensed when he walked by her and he leaned down, taking her knife from the neck of the bitter. Once he wiped the blade on his jeans, he turned around and handed it back to Anna.
"Thank you.." he smiled at her and then pointed at the medical supplies. "Don't you have things to grab? Your people sound like they really need it." She snapped out of her trance and looked at the list.
"oh yeah, Thank you...but don't you need supplies? I was guessing that is why you where here." He simply shook his head and placed his hand on his hip. "No no, its fine, I will take what you don't need."
Anna raised an eyebrow and turned around to start grabbing the things she needed. Once she filled her bag, she started to put things in Max's harness bag, zipping it up and standing. She turned around to notice that the strange man had been staring at her and her face turned red.
"I'm sorry miss, I just have to tell you, you are so beautiful." This caused Anna to blush even more and Sven looked up at the man, letting a low growl out. Anna stood back up and made sure her bag was on tight, part of her still believed this man was going to kill her and take all her stuff.
"Thank you, Thats very nice of you." Then she walked towards the entrance, peeking out to see if the street flooded while she was getting supplies. To her surprise, there was only two bitters in the street. She turned to look at the man and smiled.
He cleared his throat and smiled at her. "Would you like me to walk you to your truck?" She smiled and then looked at him confused. How the hell did he know I brought a truck? She chose to ignore it and nodded, letting the man follow her.
Once the two got to the truck, she opened the tailgate and Max and Sven jumped inside. Anna threw the bags in the back and closed the back gate. "Thank you sir, you are very kind."
"That isn't a problem miss, I am always glad to help. Did you want me to come with you? I might be able to help." Anna had a red flag go off in her mind. There was no way in hell she was going to bring this stranger around her sick friends, especially Olaf.
"No, that's okay, thank you though." He nodded and she got into the truck, rolling the window down. "What you did was kind, but I don't think my friends would like me bringing a stranger around." He laughed and tapped the side of the car.
"I understand, Just be safe out there okay? You won't always find people as nice as me." she smiled and started the vehicle, "by the way," his voice caught her attention again."I didn't catch your name."
"Anna...My name is Anna." He smiled and she felt herself blushing again. "Anna...that is such a beautiful name." He extended his hand and smiled, Anna took it and they shook. "My name is Hank, its great to meet you."
She smiled and nodded. "Nice to meet you too Hank, hopefully I will see you again, and you won't be dead." she smirked and he laughed at that, stepping back as she started to pull away.
Once she was a little way down the road, another male figure came out from a building, a smirk on his face. "Should I follow her Hans?" He laughed and threw a set of keys at the other male.
"Yes, Find out where she his hiding, I want her." he looked at the man and had an evil smirk on his face. "And I always get what I want, don't I Steven?"
