Chapter X

Say Something, I'm Giving Up On You

By: Elsa Alicorn

Hans felt awful. Just, awful! Everything hurt him and whatever he has done, it couldn't stop the pain. And he was so close to reach his goal.

He groaned loudly as he tried to move his leg. He was sick. Sick of everything! And more importantly, sick of that place. It was too cold for him, and not having a shirt didn't help him in any way. In the past few hours, he was thinking why would Elsa help him, but he found nothing. She could leave him to die just like that!

'And how she even found me?' He scoffed as he looked around. He hated that place. He hated Elsa. He hated Anna. Or simply said, he hated everyone. He didn't want any revenge. All he wanted was to escape, far, far away from that stupid, cold place.

"This is going to be a hell of my life."

Elsa was sitting beside her sister. She held Anna's hand as she looked at her. Nothing changed. Anna was still lying on the bed, lifeless. Elsa was with her all night. She couldn't sleep anyway. Elsa sighed as she stood up. She wanted to stay there, beside her sister, but she has had to do paperwork. Being a queen had bad sides too. Elsa started to walk away when suddenly, she heard a light groan. She gasped and turned around to see Anna, who was slowly rubbing her head. Elsa felt like she was going to burst out of happiness.

"Anna!" She ran up to her little sister, hugging her tightly. Anna smiled a little as she tried to pull her sister away.

"Ow, Elsa. It hurts!" Elsa pulled away with a big grin. She started to laugh like a little kid.

"Oh, Anna! You don't know how happy I am to see you awake!" Anna rolled her eyes with light smile what was playing on her lips.

"Yes. Because you totally look calm.", Anna replied sarcastically while giggling. Elsa ignored that comment.

"Anna, I'm so sorry for letting this happen to you. I could have known better. I'm j-" Anna cut her off.

"Elsa, it's not your fault. I acted like immature kid and it was me who put us in the state we are now. So I should be the one apologizing to you, Elsa." Elsa hugged her sister again, but lighter this time and Anna hugged her back. Also, temperature rose. Tears slowly streamed down Elsa's cheek, but she didn't care.

"It's all right. It's over now. The only important thing is that you're ok.", Elsa said as she pulled away. Anna nodded. Elsa remembered that she still haven't talked with Hans about some things. After a few minutes in awkward silence, Elsa spoke up.

"Anna, I have to go now and-"

"You're going to see him, aren't you?" Anna asked, her voice cracked. Elsa couldn't lie anymore. She promised herself that there will be no lies between them. Elsa sighed and nodded.

"Yes. I have to know what happened to him and why he wanted to... you know, so I can end this once forever. I'll tell Kristoff and Olaf that you're up. Do you want to see them?", Elsa asked. She knew Anna would answer with 'yes' but she wanted to be sure. Anna slowly nodded and smile was returning to her face. Before exiting, Elsa turned around to look at her sister.

"Anna, I'll promise you one thing before I leave. I promise you that I won't let him- or anyone to hurt us. I'll die for you if I need just to see you happy." Elsa gave her a weak smile as she walked away. She truly meant what she said, and she is going to keep that promise, no matter what.

On the other side of the wall, Hans could hear giggling and laughing of two sisters, which made him roll his eyes in disgust.

"At least the temperature rose." He mumbled to himself as he stopped shivering. It was enough for him to be in same castle where he failed. He was sure that 'Queen' would come any second with tons of stupid questions, on which he won't answer, of course. The last thing he needed is her mercy over him. That made him feel weak and stupid. He would rather die than beg for his life like some dog. And it didn't matter to him if he dies. He didn't have to live for anything, anyway. Everything he had was taken away from him. Even his horse, who was his only friend.

After a few minutes, the doors of his room opened and young queen stepped in. Hans rolled his eyes.

'Exactly as I thought.' Her eyes looked around the room until she spotted Hans. He could swear that her eyes darkened when she saw him. Not that he cared anyway. Young queen walked up to him, leaving ice where ever she stepped, her face showed no emotion. She stopped when she came next to him. She knew that he couldn't hurt her because he was in bad condition. Hans looked up to her, and he didn't like the view. He preferred view where she was smaller than him, where he is stronger than her. And since it was impossible, he chose to annoy her.

"Oh, what a pleasure to have you here, Elsa." He said sarcastically. Elsa gave him deathfull look.

"It's Queen Elsa to you." He rolled his eyes.

"All right then, Queen Elsa. Why are you here? You missed me that much?" He grinned. Elsa bit her lip, trying to not slap him across his stupid face.

"What happened to you?" She asked, trying to ignore the angry feeling inside her. Hans started to grin even more.

"Ah, Sweetheart. I can't tell you that. Not that I want to. But it's nice to know how you care about me." Elsa raised eyebrow when he called her 'sweetheart', but later she let that go. She narrowed her eyes at him.

"Prince Hans, you're going to tell me tell what happened to you and how you escaped or-"

"Or what, Your Majesty. You're going to kick my ass with your icy thing. Oh, I'm so scared!" He dramatized. Elsa shot ice at him, pinning him down on the bed even more. She came to him, her face now less than an inch away from his.

"How. Did. You. Escaped?" She asked angrily. And she got nothing but silence.

"Hans, how did you escaped?!" Hans gritted his teeth, but no word came out.

"Hans, I demand you to tell me why! Now!" That was it. Hans exploded of anger.

"Because I wanted to die!", he shouted, sending flames all around him. Luckily, Elsa had time to defeat herself. She raised wall of ice which melted when Hans' fire touched it. Also, Elsa shot ice on the places what were burning.

Elsa slowly started to back away as she covered her mouth with left hand while shaking her head. Her eyes were full of confusion and fear. Her eyes met with his angry ones.

"H-Hans? No. No! That is not possible! It- That can't be..."

A/N: Update. Again. I actually never thought I'll come this far. I want to thank everyone who supported me all this time. You don't know how much it means to me!

Actually, I wanted to upload yesterday, but I couldn't edit my text on the phone so I did it in the morning.

I just want to say that my hero is Regin_Of_Westerguard who wrote Helsa story with 70 or 80 chapters. The story is still unfinished and it melted my heart. Name of the story is 'Heated Ice' on Wattpad, so if you haven't read it, you better go now! You'll fall in love with the first chapter, believe me :3

Anyway, thanks for reading my story and thanks for the support.

Please, post a review. I really want to know what you think about my story and if you can, give me some ideas! I appreciate it a lot! Thanks again!
