FROZEN 2: ICE STORM
Chapter 5: Love will thaw…
By, Rebecca D. Monroe (Shadowsgirl3214)
"Kuen…what-what are you doing here?!" Dove asked, very scared.
"Oh, I just came to visit my favorite snow and ice princess." Kuen replied.
"It's queen now, Kuen."
"Oh, that's right, your coronation was yesterday…and also, that was the day that you could no longer conceal the snow and ice you hid inside." Dove was starting to get furious as she watched Kuen walk into the center of the room they were in.
"What do you want, Fire child?" Dove asked, finally sounding more confident than earlier.
"I just want your crown." Kuen answer as she stopped walking and looked at Dove, grinning evilly.
"What?!" Dove's eyes widen in fear and shock, but then they went to angry and cold. "You'll get my crown, over my dead body!" She yelled shooting ice and snow at Kuen head on. Kuen ran right through the ice quickly, making a sword out of molten rock and lava, and pinned Dove to one of the walls in the room, holding the sword to her neck. Dove's eyes were now full of fear.
"Oh, trust me, Dove Frost…that can be arranged." Kuen laughed evilly, as Dove struggled to break away from her grasp.
"HELP!"

Over at the castle, Elsa was lying in bed, looking even weaker than she did earlier.
"Madame, would you like some more medicine for the pain?" One of the servants asked as they walked into the room with medicine proscribed by Elsa's doctor. But Elsa just shook her head and kept looking out the window.
"I'll leave you alone, Madame." The servant walked out of Elsa's room, and shut the door behind her.
Elsa closed her eyes, and let a tear fall from them. It's almost time, Jack…where are you? She thought.

Meanwhile, with Trent, Lydia, and Jack, Trent was feeling kind of weak. "Trenton, are you okay?" Jack asked as he was flying down by his level.
"I-I…" Trent began to answer, with stuttering, when all of a sudden, he fell off his horse and was lying down on the ground, still conscious.
"Trenton!" Lydia yelled, pulling the reins back on the horse, making the animal stop walking. She got off and ran over to Trent, kneeling down by his side. Jack flew over to him and landed on one knee next to him.
"I-I feel so cold." Trent finally got out.
"Oh, no…we have to get you back to Arendelle, fast!" Jack said. Jack and Lydia were helping Trent stand up, when Lola heard something, or someone, cry for help.
"Hey, guys…did you hear that?" The snowgirl asked. Lydia and Jack had just gotten Trent up off the ground, just as Trent himself heard the cry for help too.
"SOMEONE, HELP!" The voice cried out again. This time, Trent's eyes grew wide, as another piece of his dark brown hair turned white. He felt the strength to move again, for he ran to his horse, got on, and rode it back to Dove's castle.
"Trent, come back!" Lydia yelled after him.
"I can't! Dove's in trouble!" Trent yelled back as he made his horse go faster than ever before.
"But you'll freeze before you even get there!" Jack yelled to the young prince. Trent didn't care though. He was going to save Dove no matter what the cost was.

Dove was still pinned up against the wall, with Kuen holding her sword to her neck. "Its a-shame really…because since you just drove Prince Trenton away, you'll never get to tell him how you really feel about him." Kuen taunted.
"Shut…UP!" Dove screamed as she shot ice and snow at Kuen, making her slide off of Dove and into the center of the room again. Kuen looked furious, as Dove created a sword with ice and snow.

Trent rode the horse as fast as he could, but kept grabbing his chest and wincing in pain, as more of his hair turned white. "I don't have much longer…but I have to hold on…for Dove." Trent made the horse go a little bit faster, right as he saw the tip of Dove's snow and ice castle.

Dove and Kuen fought with pride, and courage. Dove, however, was losing faith. If only Trenton was here… She thought.
Kuen melted her sword, making it become a ball of lava that floated above the palm of her hand, and shot it at Dove. But, before Dove was impaled by the incoming heat wave, she said to herself: "I promise, mom; I'll believe in Jack Frost…FOREVER!" Dove was about to hit the lava away with her sword, but was too late. The lava had hit her, smack-dab in the heart.

Trent pulled the reins, making the horse stop running, as he got off and ran up the stairs to Dove's castle. Please be alright! He thought, as he winced in pain once more. He ran inside the castle, up the stairs, and, the sight he saw before him; broke his heart. There, lying on the ground, unconscious, was Dove, looking all burnt and scarred up. Trent didn't need a witness statement for this. He knew EXACTLY who did this to Dove.
He ran up to Dove's side, kneeling down next to her, and held her in his arms. "Dove? Dove, can you hear me?!" Trent yelled for her, but she didn't reply. "Dove! Dove! Come on, open your eyes!" Dove was out cold. There was no way of getting her awake. "Dove, please…answer me!" Trent yelled one last time, but Dove didn't reply still. Trent tightened his grip on Dove, and was trying not to cry, but failed epically. He was crying up a storm as the lost piece of dark brown hair he had, turned white, and as he dropped Dove's body, falling to the ground as well, unconscious.
Jack and Lydia ran in, and saw the scene. Jack's heart broke, when he saw that his daughter was gone, and Lydia was getting ready to cry when she saw her brother was dead too. She ran up to him, and knelt down by his side, as she flipped him onto his back. His skin was snow white pale, and his hair was completely white itself. She touched his bare hand, and the moment she touched it was the moment she moved her hand away from him. His skin was deadly cold.
"No…No…Trenton?" Lydia said, hoping for an answer…but never got one.
Jack flew over to his daughter's side, and landed on his knees right next to her. He set his staff down, and held his daughter in his arms. Tears were tempting his eyes, and his breathing became heavy. "D-Dove…?" Jack said, hushed and hoping for an answer. But, to his horror, there was none. "N-no…no…NO!" Jack lost it! He held Dove closer to him, and tightened his grip around her. He wasn't going to let her go, as long as life and time would let him.
That was when Lydia lost it too and began crying even harder. She lied down on her older brother's chest, and cried really hard. "Please come back, Trenton…please!" She said through sobs and heavy breathes. She cried so hard that it hurt her stomach. She couldn't bare the thought of losing her brother. He was supposed to be king instead of her being the queen of their kingdom, and now…their kingdom would never have a king from the Royal Keller family.
But then, Trent's eyes slowly began to open, as his hair was turning back to dark brown, and his skin was getting it's normal temperature again. He coughed a bit, making Lydia sit up and look to see her brother alive. "TRENTON!" She screamed as she hugged him, while he began to sit up too.
"OOF! Lydia, relax! I'm alright!" Trent said, trying not to giggle. But that's when he remembered Dove, and let his sister go. He kneeled down by Dove's side and took her hand that was near him. "Dove, please wake up…please…" Trent said, sounding scared and hurt, in hopes that Dove would respond to his voice. But sadly…nothing was spoken from Dove's mouth. Jack held her even tighter, as a tear fell down his cheek, when suddenly, Dove's eyes opened. She blinked as she looked up at Trent.
"Trenton…?" Her voice spoke up, sounding weak and frail. Trent looked back up at Dove, and saw that she was awake.
"Dove…!" A voice that Dove recognized spoke up. This made Dove look to her left, and saw Jack Frost holding her in his arms, and the look in his eyes, was the look of a worried father.
"Dad…?" Jack smiled, as a tear left his cheek. His daughter could see him again.
"Hey sweetie! Are you okay?" He asked after a moment of silence.
"Yeah…just a little sun-burnt is all." Dove said, smiling as she sat up, and looked at her father again. She knew it was her father, because they had same eye color and shape. That was the moment, that Dove just hugged him with all her might. Jack hugged her back as more tears fell down his face. He missed that warm feeling he got when he hugged his daughter. He just missed her in general.
As Dove was hugging her father, she saw her mother's letter, and read the P.S. that was there.
'P.S,
Love will thaw…'
Dove smiled as she pulled away from her father and stood up, with help from Jack and Trent. Lydia follow suit a little bit after.
Dove wiped off her dress, and grinned with realization. "Kuen's an idiot." She said.
"How?" Lydia asked.
"Kuen shot lava into my heart…and she doesn't know that I'm still alive."
"What do you mean, Dove?" Trent asked, still kind of confused.
"Kuen's black fire ability will not melt a frozen heart…and she doesn't know that." Dove grinned, proud that she considered herself victorious after the battle with Kuen. That was when she got an idea…and remembered her mother. And as soon as she remembered her mother, her grin faded away. "Mom…" Dove looked at Jack, with worry in her eyes. Since Dove and Elsa had the same ability almost (Dove has ice AND snow, where Elsa just has ice), she could feel when something was wrong with her mother, and vise versa.
"Dad, we have to go home…mom's about to leave.
