Now, we are at present time and the coronation will be held soon (not this chapter, but soon!) and Nora is in the middle of excited and nervous. She has become more confident and less quiet over the past years. Her powers can be as powerful as Elsa's but she has WAY MORE control over them, not even needing gloves. Just so you know, her coronation outfit is like Anna's but sleeveless and purple with silver linings and her hair looks like Elsa's (and their mothers). I'm not very good at describing clothes and hair...Okay, go ahead and read!


~ 3 Years Later ( Anna 18, Nora 20, Elsa 21 ) ~

I stepped out of my room and into the hallway, still wearing my light purple nightdress but not caring one little bit. Kai, one of the servant, was about to knock on Anna's door until I stopped him.

"It's alright, I'll wake her up Kai."

He bowed politely and walked away towards the kitchen where I'm sure they needed a lot of help. I knocked on the door twice, but there was no respnose so I simply just opened the door and stepped inside. The room is exactly the opposite of Elsa's and my own, clothes strewn everywhere with a few old toys and the occasional hair ribbon.

"Anna? Anna!"

She quickly sat up and I had to restrain myself from laughing at her crazy bedhead, her hair was sticking up all over the place and drool was visable from one side of her mouth. Coughing and then snorting she groggily looked at me with her eyes half-closed, pulling a hair out of her mouth before talking. "Huh. Yeah?"

"Anna? Sorry to wake you so early, but I though you might want to get up early so you can go out-Anna?"

Mumbling something incoherent she falls back asleep in a sitting position with her head resting on her elbow which in turn sat upon her knee. I watched in humor as he elbow slid off of her knee and her head was jolted awake. "Who is it?"

I sighed. "Anna. It's me. Nora? It's time to get ready!"

"Ready for what?"

"Elsa's coronation!" As I was saying this, I pulled out the green dress I had made for her from behind my back and put up in front of her face, hoping she'd like it now that I had added more detail. "Elsa's corn-eration?" Her eyes close once again but pop open when she sees the dress, "Coronation Day! Haha!" She grabs the dress from my hands and scrambles into her bathroom to take a bath and do her hair.

I leave to go to my own room and put on the dress I had made for myself a few months earlier. It was made of a royal purple fabric, sleeveless with silver trimming along the hem and bodice. There were delicate silver and dark purple swirls and spirals all around the dress that complimented the pendant I wore around my neck, as it was a silver medallion with the Arendelle symbol on it.

Styling some of my hair into a braid, I tied it with string into a sort of headband made of hair and then formed the remaining hair into an intricate bun. My bangs are short and sway to the left side of my face, like Elsa's. Leaving my room to go see Elsa, I find that she is in a turquoise rosemaling dress with a dark magenta cape draped over her shoulder and held together by a small blue clasp.

"Elsa! You look great!" I smiled at her and she looked back at me with a nervous grin on her face. She had her hair styled just like mine and it was then I wondered what Anna had done with her hair, but I guess I'd just have to wait..

"And you...you look like mother."

I was speechless with Elsa's comment and caught a glance of myself in her full-body mirror and smiled a little at my reflection. For I saw a 20-year old girl with dark brown hair and blue eyes with a light sprinkle of freckles smile back at me. "Thanks, but if anything, you match her in grace and elegance more than I ever could!"

We talked for a few more minutes before we left the room to go to the library, where we had spent a great deal of time studying and reading in our younger years. I picked up a book of Arendelle Coronation History and quickly skimmed through what would happen and found a portrait of our father holding the ceremonial scepter and orb.

Elsa smiled at me a little and then walked over to the large windows, me following behind her curious to see what exactly was out there. I'm not sure about her, but the first thing I saw was Anna standing hazardously on the window washers pulley, as if it were a giant swing. Elsa however didn't notice and was more focused on the people entering the gates.

Continuing to look on for a few more moments, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath and turned away from the windows. She stared at the portrait of papa and began to sing her mantra.

"Don't let them in, don't let them see. Be the good girl you always have to be."

She paused for a minute before continuing.

"Conceal, don't feel, put on a show. Make one wrong move and everyone will know."

Removing her gloves, she practiced how she would perform the coronation by holding a rounded music box and a candlestick to simulate the royal scepter and orb. This didn't work out because as soon as she started to grow nervous, frost covered the objects and froze them solid. She scowled at the items, grabbed her gloves and put them back on.

"But it's only for today, it's agony to wait."

She called a servant and gave him her command, "Tell the guards to open up the gates." To which he bowed and ran off to spread the news.

As soon as the servant left, she began her mantra again, only this time it sounded, well...sadder.

"Don't let them in, don't let them see. Be the good girl you always have to be. Conceal. Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know."

As soon as she was finished, I unlocked the library doors which led to the balconey that overlooked the courtyard. She realized my gesture and I moved out of the way as she swung the doors open and stepped outside to look upon the people. They cheered and applauded at seeing their future queen and she simply put a hand up and began waving.

"Oh! The bells are going to ring pretty soon, I'm going to go find Anna. Wherever she is..."

I politely curtsied and ran out of the library, sliding down the banister and shooting through the doors. Seeing Anna by the docks, she was running towards me with her arms behind her until a horse bumped into her. Watching as a handsome stranger helped her up and introduced himself as a Prince of the Southern Isles and bowing before Anna.

After they were tossed around in the boat they were in, and got out, they just stared at each other for a bit until I interfered.

"Anna!" I ran up to them from my hiding spot concealed behind some crates.

"Nora!" She smiled at me and as soon as I was by her she introduced me to her new friend. "Nora, this is Hans. He is a Prince of the Southern Isles! He's coming to the coronation today! Hans, this is Nora. She's my older sister."

He bowed politely and I curtsied in return, the words coming out of my mouth I had chosen cautiously. "Pleasure to meet you. I've heard a lot about the Southern Isles and how they have many Princes, thirteen, I believe?"

A sad look crossed his face for a flash but Anna didn't seem to notice it, he simply replied in a gentlemanly matter. "True. I am the youngest of the thirteen..our mother died giving birth to me so for that my brothers hate me." I truly hadn't meant to have our conversation go to this, but he had brought it up on his free will. "I apologize, I did not mean to drive you into a sensitive topic, your highness."

My apology was sincere and my face was in the right expression, but deep down inside I though something was fishy about this guy.

Soon the bells began to ring and I grabbed Anna's arm, leading her away from the docks and towards the castle. "Bye!" She shouts as we run back to make it in time to Elsa's coronation. I watch as he waves back at Anna, with his horse mimicking his movement but accidently letting his hoof drop the boat into the water and hans along with it.

He emerges from the water, lifting the boat and spitting out some of the water he had taken in. However I saw a lovestruck expression on his face looking at Anna and I knew right then and there..

I would not like this guy.


Yay! The gates are open and Hans has been introduced, the Coronation however is in the next chapter. This is a bit short but I PROMISE the coronation chapter will be longer. As you can tell, Nora is a bit suspicious of Hans and Anna is just rolling with it. If you're not sure, Yes, this entire story is told from Nora's perspective and she will interact with the other characters, but you won't know what's going through their heads. Until tommorrow, (hopefully) bye!
