Elsa growled as the harsh wind forced her to take a couple of steps back. Her first trip out of her own castle and it was already a disaster... Yes... twenty one years of living on the North mountain and this was her first time outside the castle... and she hated it of course... What possessed her to leave her sanctuary, she wasn't sure but upon finding out from Olaf that her baby sister had rode out in the dead of night with no real knowledge of how to get home in the middle of the blizzard. She didn't think twice about leaving the castle whereas if it had been any other day... Elsa would cower in fear by the very thought... Her parents had told her to always remain behind doors, told her that the world was full of hunters and poachers and that people wouldn't hesitate to kill an unholy abomination like her... It didn't help that they had the skins, cages and traps to prove it to her and a then young Elsa had burst into tears at the very sight... She had never felt so afraid...
"ENOUGH!" Elsa commanded herself and tried to shake all of those horrible images out of her head... Finding her sister was her top priority... her miserable life didn't count at all...
"Where are you?!" Elsa called out helplessly as she sunk down on all fours and tried to maintain her balance... She hated moving like the animal she denied herself to be but the wind was far to strong... Trudging through the cold snow, she tried to ignore the icicles that were forming on her fur and willed herself forward... Finally, after what felt like hours of wading through the snow, Elsa's sharp eyes caught sight of a distinct humanoid shape beneath a pine tree. Quickly, she picked up speed, skidding to a stop inches before the tree just in case that person wasn't her sister. However the familiar bright red hair told her otherwise and Elsa heaved a sigh of relief... Thanking the Gods for being so uncharacteristically merciful, Elsa ripped off her cloak and wrapped it around the ice-cold body of her sister.
"I'm so sorry... I'm so sorry snowflake..." she whispered guiltily before lifting and cradling the small body to her massive frame, hoping her fur might provide her sister with some additional warmth... Taking a deep breath, Elsa steadied herself back on twos and slowly made her way back to the castle...
Anna groaned... Her mind felt groggy... Painful... and there was a horrible ringing in her ears... It could have been worse though... For one... She was no longer cold... In fact, she was quite warm... Contented, she tried to open her eyes only to panic when she couldn't... Thrashing, she struggled to get up only stopping when she felt someone gently guide her back down to a lying position...
"Don't try to move... You're still not well... You need rest..." came a soft soothing voice... Anna gasped that voice... It was so achingly familiar albeit it much higher pitched... Tears welled up in her eyes...
"Mama..." she croaked.
There was a pause... Before the voice spoke again...
"Shhh snowflake... You're safe now... Go to sleep..."
Anna started to panic as she heard the creak of a chair and the sound of a door opening...
"DON"T LEAVE ME!" that came out much louder than she had intended...
"Don't leave me... Please... Don't leave me again..."
There was another pause before Anna heard the chair creak again, this time from the weight of someone sitting down.
I... I won't leave you... I'll be right here..."
"Promise?"
"I... I promise..."
The next few weeks passed just like a blur for Anna... However whenever she woke up there was always someone there... tending to her every need... Whether it'd be dabbing her face with a damp cloth when her headache raged on mercilessly or to feed her water when her cold, brittle fingers made it impossible to grasp on to any glass or cup properly... It was blissful... When she could finally regain enough of a hold on herself to really open her eyes and take in her surroundings, Anna realized to her great surprise that she wasn't in her room back in Arendelle... She was in fact, lying on a bed that wasn't her own but was strangely alright with that, being comfortable under the thick blanket and feeling way better since the last time she was conscious...
Scanning her surroundings, she realized she was back in her sister's castle... Speaking of her sister... Anna stiffened as her eyes caught sight of the strange creature sitting fast asleep in front of her... It was huge, at least six feet in height, the lean muscle of its body covered in thick white fur. It's fronts paws were as large as Anna's head while its hind legs were more animal like, bent at the heel and had a long wolf's tail tangled between them... Anna held in her scream as the beast let out a yawn, revealing its wolfish face and more terrifyingly, its rows and rows of sharp fangs... It let out a low rumble before its floppy ears twitched lazily and pressed themselves against it's unruly mane which partially hid it's menacing horns...
"Stop calling her it!" Anna chided herself... This was her sister... Not some random animal she was observing for the first time...
Composing herself and taking a calming breath, Anna forced herself to push aside her fear and look at the beas...Her sister in a more positive light... She... Elsa... did save her life after all...
Anna bit her lip... The more she looked at her sister, the less fear she felt towards her... It was strange of course, registering that the six feet tall creature before you with its shaggy white fur, wolf feet and ram horns was somehow related to you... But after the whole blizzard fiasco... Anna was ready to believe it. Slowly, she stuck out her arm from under the blanket, intending to gently wake her sister only to draw back in surprise as the beast's eyes snapped opened...
Cliffies Mwahaha... Ok the next one will definitely have them engaging in dialogue, I promise... Pls review, the more reviews means faster updates!
