Chapter 2: Trouble
Elsa 3rd Person POV
As Elsa sat on a comfortable wooden chair as Captain Ross looked over the man's body and said "My lady how exactly did you find him?"
Elsa sighed as Kristoff helped Oaken look fro some medical supplies and said "Olaf found him under a pile of snow a couple of meters away from where we parked the sled. I thought he was dead but he was still warm."
"How is he?" asked Anna as she held her sister's hand,
Captain Ross felt the man's pulse and said "He's barley alive and by my guess with the amount of snow he was covered with, he was wounded by a wolf bite during the blizzard a few days ago."
"Must have been like those wolves we saw back then huh Anna?" asked Kristoff,
"I don't believe so," said Captain Ross, "If they were then he would have died to an infection in a few hours meaning whatever wolf bit him was trained and breeded."
"What does it mean?" asked Elsa,
"I don't know your majesty," answered the Captain,
"Will we take him with us to the palace?" asked Olaf as he poked the man's unconscious body that was laid on a table with his stick arms,
"Are we?" asked Anna looking at Elsa,
Just then, Oaken put down a crate of pipes and said "You need to stay the night then yah? You could stay here, this is also an Inn yah."
"This is also an Inn?" asked Kristoff looking around,
"Yah!" said Oaken, "Me family and I expanded a few months back and made the shed a big enough Inn."
"No wonder it looked bigger," said Anna looking out the window,
Elsa looked over the man's unconscious body and said "Do we have any idea on who he is? Also what does he have?"
The man was now undressed to his pants and shirt while his two rapiers were placed on another table across the room. Along with his belongings included a pouch of money, a small dagger, some spare clothes, his grey cloak and a small golden pendant of a torch.
His leg had been treated and was wrapped with bandages but his lips were still a bit blue and he was still twitching violently as his face became more distressed. Elsa with her gentle nature had been worried but at least the man was safe now.
The captain put down his hand and said "It's getting late my queen; we must get ourselves lodged in for the night at least."
Olaf fiddled around with Oaken's merchandise while Anna and Kristoff spoke with each other as Elsa stood and said "Alright, one night wouldn't hurt anyone. Please fetch our bags and deliver them to the rooms Captain."
"As you wish," said the captain bowing away,
Oaken set out four keys for each person while Kristoff would be sharing his room with Olaf and the snowman quoted 'We're roommates!' and then they transported the man's unconscious body to a room while Elsa entered hers and saw it looked quite warm and nice.
It had a single bed made of wood and a mattress, a night stand with a lit lamp, a soft carpet and a window view of the forest while red drapes were by the window's side. Elsa sat on her bed and went through her things and found her blue gloves as a knock came from her door.
The queen put the gloves on before frost could grow and she said "Come in!"
To her surprise, Kristoff came in and removed his snow cap as he said "Queen Elsa, may I have a word with you?"
"Kristoff," said Elsa with a small smile, "I am fine without the formalities."
He nervously smiled and said "Sorry Queen err…uh…Elsa."
She shook her head and said "What is it that you want Kristoff?"
The man looked nervous as hell as he fidgeted and fiddled with something in his pocket and said "I would like to ask a question."
"What is it?" asked Elsa,
He relaxed his shoulders, brought out a black box from his pocket and said "I would like your blessing for me to marry your sister Anna."
He closed his eyes and waited for a reply. Elsa had seen this coming and smiled for herself and her sister. Kristoff was a good man, someone she could trust to never put her sister in harm's way. He was nothing like Hans who nearly killed both of them and he was pretty trustworthy. Besides, Anna and Kristoff were really, truly and absolutely in love.
She stood, put a hand on Kristoff's shoulder and said "You really love my sister Kristoff, I can see that myself and you are a way different man from Hans. I give you my blessing to marry Anna."
"What?" asked Kristoff opening his eyes and smiling in disbelief,
"I give you my blessing." Said Elsa,
She quickly tightened her grip on his shoulder while frost crept on his jacket and said "But hear this Kristoff, ever hurt, cheat or leave my sister I will turn you into a frozen statue are we clear?"
"Yes ma'am." Said Kristoff with a gulp,
He left the room looking outside the window happy for her sister but in the inside, she wondered when will she find the one?
3rd Person POV
A man with a mask covering his face who wore a uniform with a tribal emblem on his breast pocket stood outside a wooden cabin as his cloak blew along with the night winter wind. Beside his stood the hunter group's leader who had the same tribal emblem on his bracelet.
The masked man had a raspy voice as he spoke "Do you know why we are here Ram?"
The leader remained silent while the masked man looked at him to reveal a mask with a sinister pair of eyes and a sharp toothed mouth that seemed to gaze into your soul said "Your group failed to capture the demon and now not only you failed to find him but he is now under the same roof as the Royal Family of Arendelle."
"But master-"
"You're incompetence is beyond me and now we must enlist some aid from mercenaries since we do not want to start a war with Arendelle." Said the masked man,
He turned away and said "Our secret must be kept and if it will be kept we need to recapture the demon."
Ram the hunter leader bowed his head and said "Yes sir"
The entered the Cabin to be met with several sinister eyes but the two seemed to be not intimidated by the looks of the bandits, thieves and mercenaries. The two walked in the Cabin and then Ram said "Sir what group are we looking for?"
"Let us see," said the masked man,
His cowl was still up as he sat on a bar seat and the bartender asked "What will you have?"
"A simple cup of your finest wine," said the masked man as Ram sat down, "he will have the same."
The bartender walked away to get the order while the denizens of the cabin eyed them and then a tall, brutish man with a large hammer on his shoulders got up and said "Hey! You with the mask!"
The bartender arrived with the order and placed it with the man as he removed his mask, placed it on the table but his face was still covered by the cloak and he raised the cup to his mouth and downed it in one go as the brute stepped closer and said "Hey!"
The man put the cup down, clipped his mask on and turned to say "Yes?"
"You have some nerve showing up here!" said the brute, "Walking in like you own the place! Don't you know I'm the big boss here!"
"You?" asked the masked man, "Then I have a request for you my big, dull friend."
"I don't take requests!" said the brute as he raised his hammer,
Just then, the man extended his hand and a knife knocked the hammer out of the man's hands and the knife was a twisted knife whose blade resembled a bolt of lightning.
The man growled as the masked man shook his head and in a blink had a rapier to the brute's neck and said "Please, I don't want to kill you yet."
The brute backed off as the masked man said "I have a job offer, I need a small group of you, about six, to go to Wandering Oaken's Inn and capture a person with red hair who wields a pair of rapiers, one pitch black and one snow white. You will deliver the target to the port a few miles from here as soon as possible."
"What's in it for us?" asked a random mercenary,
The masked man threw a heavy pouch to the bartender who opened it to find a lot of gold coins and then the brute leader said "What if we take you now and take the gold for ourselves?"
"You could try," said the masked man, "but risk having an entire country here to exterminate you all for killing my friend here who is a general then be my guest."
They all paled as they nodded and said "We'll move now."
"Good," said the masked man as he smiled under his mask and Ram said "Sir, can we trust them?"
"Only as much as they can trust me," said the masked man,
"What is your name sir?" asked the bartender,
"You may call me…Kaiser. He who puts out the fire."
Kristoff 3rd Person POV
It was about nine o clock and everyone had fallen asleep except Kristoff and Anna who are outside the Cabin leaning on the trees as they looked at the starry night. After receiving Elsa's blessing and warning, Kristoff would ask the love of his life, Anna, the big question tonight.
The night was cold but the two felt fine since they were a bit used to it. Anna was leaning on Kristoff's shoulder while his arm was around her while she sighed and Kristoff said "Something wrong?"
The red head's green eyes looked at Kristoff and said "That's it Kristoff, everything is just fine. The kingdom is happy, Elsa is fine, were fine."
He smiled and said "Do you remember when we first met?"
She giggled and said "Yeah, when I thought you were some snowman with the way you looked."
"Imagine my surprise seeing someone in a dress way up here in a snowstorm." Said Kristoff with a chuckle,
She looked at him and teasingly said "Not as funny as when Oaken threw you out."
They both laughed remembering how Kristoff was thrown out of the shop ten feet in the air courtesy of the jolly man and the calmed down as Anna said "Then we met Olaf huh?"
"Yeah," said Kristoff, "I didn't believe he did not know what Summer was and what would happen."
She giggled and said "Yeah, then there was my heart and your family. It was hilarious when I think back about it."
"Don't remind me," said Kristoff covering his face in shame,
Anna smiled as she leaned on him and said "It was one wild adventure but I'm glad I went through it."
"Why is that?" asked Kristoff,
"I got closer to my sister and I met you." Said Anna smiling,
Kristoff grinned as Anna leaned in and the two shared a kiss under the stars. For about two minutes they kissed then pulled away as Kristoff felt his pocket and held the black box and said "Anna, I know we've know each other for a while and I have a question?"
"What's that Kris?" asked Anna using his nickname,
He was about to reply when a gruff voice said "There! The red head just like Kaiser said! Get her!"
Kristoff was knocked out by a hit to the back of his head by a mercenary and then Anna tried to yell but then she was thrown into a sack and carried off into the darkness of the night.
The Next Day
Elsa 3rd Person POV
Elsa who was in her snow attire sat on a chair inspecting the unconscious man while Captain Ross gave him a check-up. It was noon and Elsa had not had word of Anna or Kristoff and she just guessed the two had slept in but the frost crept up around her as she thought "Those two better not have done that yet until after the wedding."
She calmed down as Ross said "My lady what is it?"
"Nothing," said Elsa, "How is the man?"
Olaf came into the room holding one of the man's rapiers and said "Queen Elsa what's this?"
"It's a rapier Olaf," said the Captain, "A type of weapon that takes skill and agility to use let alone two."
"So I use it like this?" Olaf held the rapier forward while Elsa said "Olaf put that down before you hurt yourself."
Olaf slipped and had the rapier inside his stomach and he laughed and said "Oh look! I've been impaled!"
Elsa slowly removed the blade and inspected it to see it was a fine work of art. Its black metal was made of obsidian and its handle was well kept and it was light as a feather but Elsa knew in the right hands, maybe in this man's, it was a weapon to be feared.
Olaf put himself together as Elsa put the blade down and then Kristoff barged in the door with his blonde hair messed up and a bruise was on his face as his lip was bleeding.
The Captain looked at him and said "Goodness! What happened to you?"
"Kristoff!" said Elsa, "What happened? Where's Anna?"
"She's been kidnapped!" said Kristoff, "We were out last night then some bandits jumped us! I'm so sorry! I couldn't do anything!"
Elsa was slowly freezing the room at the thought of what happened and Kristoff said "I'm going to find her,"
"Not in your condition!" said the Captain, "You'll kill yourself than find Anna."
"If that's what it takes" said Kristoff with his eyes full of determination,
Elsa steadied her breathing as Olaf said "Calm down Queen Elsa!"
The frost slowly stopped as the Captain said "My queen please, calm down."
As she did, Kristoff was shaking in anger while Kristoff said "Some person called Kasier ordered it, I heard them say it. I think I know where these guys are."
"Kaiser?" said a hoarse voice, "Where did you hear it?"
They turned to see the red headed man with shoulder length hair sitting up rubbing his head and his bronze eyes looked at Elsa as he said "Where did you hear that name?"
Elsa narrowed her blue eyes and said "Who are you and what do you know?"
"My name is Edgar," said the red head as he narrowed his bronze eyes and continued, " and who Kaiser is to me is none of your business."
