In the waters, there were two mermaid sisters secretly watching, a golden blonde haired one and a redheaded one.
"I wish we could go to the party, Emily." the redheaded mermaid sighed.
"I wish for the same thing, Athena." Emily sighed back in agreement.
"Sometimes I wanna be... Oh, I'm not sure how to say it... Where the people go...?" Athena replied.
"Part of their world?" Emily suggested.
"Exactly." Athena smiled to that then.
"Same here." Emily said.
The mermaid sisters smiled to each other.
"Girls, where are you?!" a strict male voice called.
"Father!" Emily and Athena panicked before going back under the water.
"Was that?" Patch asked.
"No, it couldn't be..."Atticus blinked. "...Could it?"
Cherry then looked over slightly as Hans appeared to catch Anna as if fate had brought them together. "Are those two meant to be?" she then asked.
Patch looked with her. "I don't think so."
"Something about that guy bugs me." Cherry commented about Prince Hans.
"Same here." Amber said.
"Oh, guys, I'm sure he's harmless..." Patch replied before sniffling slightly. "I think so anyway..."
"We better keep an eye out for him though." Atticus said.
Patch nodded in agreement.
"We'll keep an eye on him while you keep Elsa company." Cherry smirked.
Atticus blushed as he wondered why he liked Elsa more than a friend when he already had a girlfriend back home. "Erm, thanks, Cherry, you're a real pal."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever." Cherry replied.
And soon Atticus was by Elsa's side while the others kept an eye on Hans and Anna. Hans and Anna were having a nice friendly chat with each other and seemed to be getting along just nicely.
"Okay, wait, so you have how many brothers?" Anna asked.
"Twelve older brothers," Hans replied. "Three of them pretended I was invisible, seriously, for two years!"
"That's horrible." Anna frowned.
"It's what brothers do..." Hans shrugged.
"And sisters," Anna replied. "Elsa and I were really close when we were little. But then, one day, she just... Shut me out... And I never knew why."
"I would never shut you out." Hans soothed.
Anna smiled as she then looked giddy as a school girl. "Okay, can I just say something crazy?"
"I like crazy!" Hans beamed.
'Oh, they're not going to sing now, are they?' Cherry thought to herself with a groan.
Anna then began to sing which then made Hans sing along.
"AUGH!" Cherry groaned at the singing.
"Why do most people always sing?" Patch asked.
"You'll never catch me singing." Cherry commented.
"Maybe." Amber said.
"Can I say something crazy?" Hans asked after his and Anna's love song. "Will you marry me?"
"Can I say something even crazier?" Anna beamed. "YES!"
"Are they out of their minds?!" Amber exclaimed.
"People do crazy things out of love..." Patch face-pawed. "But this is ridiculous! You can't marry a man you just met!"
"Ariel, Cinderella, Belle..." Cherry began to list certain people that fell in love and married someone they had just met.
"It only matters if it's true love and this isn't true love!" Amber told her.
Anna and Hans seemed too engrossed with each other to notice anyone else.
"So, Queen Elsa, are you going to have an arranged marriage?" Atticus asked.
"No, Anna and I are free to marry whoever we wish." Elsa replied.
"Well, whoever you marry; I hope you marry for true love and I mean real true love." Atticus said.
"That's what I believe in, like when my mother met my father." Elsa agreed.
This made Atticus happy that Elsa would marry for love. Elsa smiled back, but then the two looked over as Anna came with Hans.
"Elsa! I mean... Queen," Anna came to her sister. "Me again... Um... May I present Prince Hans of the Southern Isles?"
"Your Majesty." Hans bowed to Elsa.
'Why do I have bad feeling they are about to ask her something?' Atticus thought to himself.
Elsa gave a polite curtsy to Hans's bow.
"We would like-" Anna started.
"Your blessing-" Hans continued.
"Of-"
"Our marriage!" Anna and Hans then said together.
'That is surprising.' Atticus thought to himself.
"Marriage?" Elsa replied.
"Yes!" Anna beamed.
"I'm sorry, I'm confused." Elsa said before then glancing to Atticus, hoping he would know what this could mean.
"Okay, how long have you two known each other?" Atticus asked Anna and Hans.
"Just now, isn't it romantic?" Anna beamed.
Elsa frowned to that. "No one is getting married."
"Wait, what?" Anna frowned.
"Anna I'm sorry, but you can't just get married after meeting the person; you have to get to know him first." Atticus said.
"He's right," Elsa agreed. "You can't marry a man you just met."
"You can if it's true love." Anna replied.
"Anna, what do you know about true love?" Atticus asked.
"A lot..." Anna replied. "More than Elsa does anyway, all she does is shut people out!"
"You asked for my blessing, but my answer is no," Elsa replied firmly. "Now, excuse me."
"I think it's a good time to leave her alone." Atticus said.
Hans then went to try to talk with Elsa, but that was no good either.
"The party is over," Elsa told the Royal Handler. "Close the gates."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The Royal Handler nodded.
"What? Elsa! No, no, wait!" Anna cried out, grabbing her sister's hand which then accidentally slipped off the glove.
Elsa panicked at that. "Give me my glove!"
"Elsa, please, please, I can't live like this anymore." Anna replied as she held the glove out of Elsa's reach.
"Anna, please give her back her glove." Atticus said.
"I just can't live like this anymore." Anna said.
Elsa grew weak as she tried to fight through the tears. "Then leave."
This broke Anna's heart. Elsa then started to leave.
"What did I ever do to you?!" Anna cried out to her sister.
"Enough, Anna." Elsa told her, trying not to lose her temper.
"No, why? Why do you shut me out?!" Anna glared with hurt, sadness, and anger. "Why do you shut the world out?! What are you so afraid of?!"
"I said enough!" Elsa yelled which then made ice shoot out from her bare hand.
"Anna, watch out!" Amber called out, accidentally shooting out ice from one of her bare hands.
Elsa looked shocked that Amber was able to do the same thing she could. The guests cried out in shock and backed away.
"Sorcery..." the Duke of Wesleton hid behind his men. "I knew there was something dubious going on here."
Amber looked worried as she saw how everyone but Atticus, Cherry, and Patch looked at her and Elsa.
"Elsa...?" Anna frowned.
Elsa looked so broken and she ran off of the castle door. The people on the outside cheered for her because she was their new queen and they wanted to celebrate with her. Elsa wasn't interested and she cut through the crowd and kept running. Amber decided to run off with her.
"Amber, where are you going?!" Patch cried out, not caring if people would see him talking. "Amber!"
Elsa accidentally ran into a fountain and the water froze at her touch and the crowd panicked at her ice powers.
"Stop those two girls!" The Duke of Wesleton told his men.
"Please, just stay away from us!" Elsa cried out. "Stay away!" she then accidentally turned the staircase into ice.
Amber was so scared that a snowstorm started up. Elsa decided to take Amber's hand and run with the girl.
"Quickly, come with me, it's not safe for us to stay here." Elsa said.
"Where are we going?" Amber asked.
"I don't know, but I can't stay here..." Elsa replied. "You have ice powers, you must come with me."
"Okay, as long as we stick together." Amber said.
"Come on, I'm not sure where we'll go, but it has to be far away from here," Elsa told Amber. "People fear what they don't understand."
Amber nodded in agreement as she went with Elsa to run away from their problem. They were going to the mountains and it was starting to snow despite only being July which puzzled the crowd. And where the water was being froze over.
"How is this happening?" Amber frowned as she stared at the palms of her hands.
"It's our fear." Elsa frowned.
"Fear?" Amber frowned back.
"That's what my parents told me anyway... Come on, we have to move." Elsa told her.
Amber nodded as she followed her ancestor.
"Guys, we have to do something." Anna said to Cherry, Atticus, and Patch.
"We have to go after them." Cherry said.
"Come on." Anna led the way out with her new friends.
"Lead the way." Atticus said.
Anna then did lead the way.
