Summary: The mall shooting and attack only from Elsa's point of view.


Elsa walked behind the group as Belle picked up her new book. Elsa's abdomen still hurt from the fall last night, but if the girls where going shopping she needed to be there just in case. The school was so secure that Anna was completely safe there regardless what the Yakuza use to think. No Anna was the most vulnerable when she was just being a teenager. Elsa wasn't paying attention to the group much as she was busy checking every other face in the crowd around the store and even outside it.

Belle had her nose in the book before they were even out of the store. The group started walking towards the next closest store which just happened to be the music store. Elsa had made up the excuse to bring her guitar to the mall. With the other intruder in the school she was on edge and wanted to have her weapons close just in case.

Elsa tried to not tell a lie when Anna was around in order to keep her promise to Anna. Anna had a dubious look on her face when Elsa said she had abdomen pains, which was the truth. She just left it there letting the other girls think it was period cramps and not blunt force trauma like it was.

Then loud gunshots rang out across the mall. Elsa watched as one of Anna's guards tackled her to the ground in order to keep her from getting hit. Elsa wasn't worried about the shooter as the shots were across the mall. The thing that worried she was the fact that a shooting happened in the mall that Anna just happened to be in. Elsa followed the body guards as they went towards the doors that lead to the interior of the mall. The guards were talking on their communication devices and not paying as much attention as they should be.

Elsa kept her head on a swivel looking everywhere she could as they went through the back hallways. They were headed towards an eastern exit when she checked behind them and saw a figure dressed all in black turn towards them. The figures face was completely covered except for the eyes. Elsa saw the figure pull out a knife and she yelled "GET DOWN!" Elsa brought up her guitar case as one of the knives flew past her into the leading guard.

Elsa knelt down as Anna's guard pushed her to the ground. Elsa opened her guitar case as the attacker took out the remaining two guards. "I only want Anna Arendelle the rest of you are free to leave," the attacker's voice sounded out and it was a female voice.

Elsa looked and memorized where the other three were laying and hoped that they wouldn't move. She looked at Anna "Whatever you do don't move from this spot." Elsa then grabbed her guitar and stood up. "You can have Anna Arendelle over my dead body."

"So be it," the attacker said, and Elsa saw her reach for more knives. Elsa now knew that this attackers advantage was at a distance so she had to remove that advantage. Elsa charged down the hallway at the woman. The first few knives that she threw were deadly accurate, but Elsa had her guitar that would easily stop a knife. Once those knives were stopped Elsa turned the neck of the guitar releasing the latch that held the thing together. In one fluid motion Elsa drew her Katana out of the sheath that was built into the guitar.

When the attacker saw Elsa charging with her sword and the attackers brown eyes went wide with shock. The attacker started throwing knives with furry and some were poorly aimed. Elsa let any pass that were no danger to herself or Anna. Others Elsa would block even if they were remotely close to the area of the girls. The attacker then pulled out a sword as Elsa came into range. Elsa hoped that the attackers abilities with a sword would be lacking, but as she tested the attackers abilities with a couple of test attacks Elsa knew that this woman was skilled with the sword as well.

Elsa then started her attack in earnest as the woman was skilled enough to counter most of Elsa's attacks, but wasn't fast enough to even attempt to attack in return. The only problem was that Elsa had no opening to truly kill her opponent as the narrow hallway limited her options. So Elsa had to resort to a desperate measure and her father's words rang out in Elsa's ears. 'When facing an opponent skilled and with little advantage sometimes you will have to sacrifice an injury to kill the opponent. Just make sure that the injury isn't critical or able to slow you down enough to make your escape,' so her father taught her.

So Elsa chose to take a blow on her forearm, away from any arteries in order to open up the opponent to a killing blow. Elsa spun under the woman's sword in order to thrust her sword out towards her chest. A perfectly block able attack that you simply swing your sword down in order to knock your opponents sword away from your chest. The block doesn't even require much strength and the attacker was reserving as much energy as possible. The attacker effortlessly brought down her sword, but Elsa had her forearm up and stopped the block. Elsa wished she had her bracers on as they might have been able to stop the sword from biting deep into her forearm. Elsa felt her sword pass through the woman's sternum, into her heart and even through her spinal column. The shock of the killing thrust caused the woman's body to go completely ridged and stiff. Elsa pulled her sword loose and was pleased to see that the woman still stood.

Elsa looked down at her arm and saw that the blow probably stopped when it hit bone. The woman didn't have hardly any force behind her swing so it would have stopped there. Blood was trickling out of the cut, but it shouldn't be too bad. Elsa turned and started walking back towards Anna and it looked like everyone was fine, but "Is everyone ok?" Elsa asked anyway.

Elsa picked up her guitar and saw that Anna was looking Belle and Aurora over. Elsa was proud of Anna as this time after seeing four men killed she wasn't in shock in the slightest. Belle and Aurora however were in complete shock. "We are all fine, but you aren't," Anna pointed at Elsa's arm. Elsa removed the knives from her guitar and put everything back in the case and pulled the strap over her shoulder. Elsa wasn't going to put her sword away until they were safely driving away.

Elsa looked down and saw that one of Anna's guards had fired several shots at the attacker before dying. It was convenient as the guard was still on his knees when he was killed. "Yea it was necessary, but it's just a minor wound. Everyone get ready for a really loud noise," Elsa aimed the guards limp arm still holding the gun at the dead attacker. Elsa then fired twice and the body at the end of the hall fell over. Elsa aimed at the wound and hoped it would cover the sword wound. "Anna help Belle and I'll help Aurora," Elsa said as she pulled the communication device from the guard hoping that the driver was ok and able to get the car near.

Elsa put the ear piece in her ear and said "Is the car here?" There was no response and after several more attempts Elsa had to give up hope on an easy escape. Elsa pulled Aurora's arm over her shoulder and stood Aurora up. Elsa hoped that Aurora would wait to vomit and not vomit all over them. Elsa peaked out the door and saw that the parking garage was nearly empty as most people would be hiding from the shooter.

She moved the group out of the hallway and into the garage. Elsa couldn't see Anna's or Aurora's drivers anywhere so the cars must have been stopped in route or the drivers were never talking to the guards and it was the attackers instead. "Elsa where are the cars?" Anna intelligently asked.

"I don't know, but I'll get us a car," Elsa said, as she led the group through the garage. Elsa was looking for a car that she could hotwire. She then spotted a rental car agency called Zip Car which was convenient. The cars were wired in a way that was easy to exploit so she moved the group over to the car. "Aurora, are you ok to stand?" Aurora just nodded her head as she probably couldn't talk right now. So Elsa pulled out her lock picking kit and picked the lock for the zip car. Elsa could hear sirens coming as the police would be responding to the shooter.

"Shouldn't we wait for the police?" Belle croaked, as if she just found her voice.

"There was someone firing a gun in the mall and that man didn't use a gun. There might be more men after us," Elsa said, as she opened the door and unlocked the car. Anna started helping the other two in as Elsa lay on the floor of the car and started to hotwire it. Very quickly Elsa had the car running and she closed the door and threw the car into gear. She accidently squealed the tires as she pulled away from the spot. Her heart was racing, her arm was burning and she wanted to get Anna to safety.

They pulled out of the mall just as the police started pulling in. The police cars didn't stop them as Elsa drove towards Anna's house. Elsa could feel a wetness on her arm and looked down to see that the trickle that was coming from her arm was now a lot more. "Shit!" Elsa couldn't help saying as she glanced at Anna. Anna had a very pretty red scarf around her neck and Elsa needed something to try and stem this blood loss. "How attached are you to that scarf?" Elsa asked, and was pleased to see that Anna didn't even hesitate as she pulled the scarf off and Elsa presented her arm to Anna. "Tie it as tight as you can even if I cry out," Elsa said, as Anna started tying her scarf around Elsa's arm.

"Ready?" Anna asked, and Elsa nodded. Elsa felt like someone had lit her arm on fire as Anna tied it as tight as she could. Elsa didn't cry out, but had to grit her teeth as Anna tied the scarf. Elsa finally heard what she was expecting for a while when retching sounds came from the back seat. Elsa had to smile as Anna rolled down the window despite the fact that it was cold outside because of the smell of vomit.

Elsa then realized that the shooting would be all over the news already and their parents needed to know. "Anna call Aurora and Belle's parents and tell them that we are ok. Tell them that we are headed to your house to pick them up from there," Elsa said. Anna picked up her phone and relayed the message to both sets of parents. Elsa waited until Anna hung up the phone to try and get everyone's story straight "When we are asked say that Anna's guard was able to kill the attacker just before he died. Please don't mention anything else."

Elsa then pulled into Anna's neighborhood and quickly turned up Anna's driveway. Elsa could see that everyone was already here as Anna typed her code into the gate. Just as they crossed the threshold the car was surrounded. Elsa got out of the car and watched as Aurora and Belle were hugged by their parents. Elsa then saw that there was no parent here for Anna either. Even though Anna had parents she was an orphan just like Elsa. Elsa moved over next to Anna hoping that maybe her presence would be enough to make Anna feel better.

"Ma'am my name is Agent James I'm the head of security. I see that your guards are not with you again," James said, as Elsa shivered from the cold. Anna had to roll down the window in order to avoid the smell of vomit and now Elsa had a chill.

"There was a second attacker and they killed Aurora's and my two guards. Thankfully one of my guards was able to kill the attacker. Since there was still a shooter loose we got into this car and escaped," Anna thankfully explained so Elsa didn't have to.

"I see. It seems that there is someone after you. Your parents want you to go into protective custody until the situation is resolved," James said, and Elsa didn't really know what that meant. Elsa went to open her mouth to ask when suddenly everyone got very blurry.

"What does that mean?" Elsa heard Anna ask, but Elsa couldn't see very well and a tried to blink it away. Then everything started to turn black and Elsa couldn't stand.
