Anna was abruptly happy to hear her sister's voice, and seeing Elsa's door, it made her feel amazing. She didn't know why, but, it seems like there was something Elsa was hiding from her.
"So, Elsa? How are you?" Anna asked a silly question.
"You've seen me just now, why would you ask again?" Elsa answered with full of ignorance from inside.
"But I've seen that you're not fine at all." Anna said slowly.
Elsa sighed. "Then you should go away, so I'll be okay." She said to Anna, with her teary eyes. She did not have the intention to say that, but she needed.
Anna was shocked to hear that. She felt like her heart was crushed into pieces. She thought Elsa would love to have her around, but Elsa had changed as much as she can notice since the evening that they were apart.
"Okay, be okay..." Anna pouted. She held her 'Olaf' and walked away from the dark hallway.
At least I still have Black Elsa. She loves me, like Elsa did before. And she loves to play with me. Anna thought to herself.
The King and the Queen were in their room, getting ready to bed.
"Did you see Elsa in her room?" The King, who was reading a book suddenly asked his wife.
The Queen was stunned to hear the question "... No?" She answered, half true, and half lying. She was about to see Elsa, but she didn't make it, as Elsa wanted her to go away.
"Tell me you're saying the truth." The King glared at his wife.
"I-" The Queen wanted to say, but she paused. "Wait, tell me... What did you say to Elsa until she won't let anybody come into her room?" She asked.
"Just a few simple rules that she needs to follow. Now answer my question." The King answered.
"No, not until you tell me what are those rules." The Queen crossed her arms. She really wanted to know what were those 'rules'.
"No." The King declined.
"Yes."
"No way."
"Yes way."
The King sighed. "Okay. I told her not to see Anna, me or you anymore. But look, she dared to get out of her bedroom and joined us for dinner!" He explained.
"You told her that?! Gosh, what kind of father are you?! Don't you think Elsa's too young to be messed with?" The Queen took a pillow and threw it over her husband.
"Hey, watch it!" The King tried to defend from the pillow, but it got to be on his face. "You thought that she was young, but she was far older than you think."
The Queen gasped. "WHAT?! What have you done to her?!" She misunderstood what did her husband say. Again, she threw another pillow.
"I did nothing, I just want her to keep herself apart from Anna. I don't want her to kill Anna." The King explained truthfully without a pillow in his face.
"I don't get with you, are you afraid of her? I know, I agreed with you to do something if Anna knows anything about her, but this isn't the way. And you didn't tell me that before." The Queen took back the pillows, and hugged it.
The King glared at his wife. "Now I told you. Case closed." He closed his book and went to turn off the chandelier lights.
"No... Ugh, you-" The Queen was about to speak, but the room was already dark. She growled and lied and gone to sleep.
Anna walked towards her bedroom with her head down. The castle was too quiet, as it was already 10 p.m. It was a normal time for everyone in the castle to get to bed, but not for Anna, or Elsa. They used to stay in their bedroom before anybody go to sleep, and when it was quiet already, they would wake up and played around until midnight, and sleep again. But now Anna can't do it, and it will be the first night she spends without playing with Elsa.
Gerda, the royal servant passed by Anna. "Hey Princess Anna, why don't you go to bed?" She knelt to Anna.
"I just want to sleep with Elsa." Anna said with a sad face.
Gerda sighed. She knew that the royal princesses were the best of friends, and they never been apart. But this time, Anna should take it willingly. "Oh dear, you know, sometimes people wanted to be alone."
"Why? Alone is bad."
"Sometimes alone can be good, and sometimes can be bad. Just give Elsa some time, she loves you, you can't deny it. She just wants to be alone, for a while." Gerda smile sweetly to Anna. Anna replied with a small smile on her lips, and she hugged Gerda.
"It's already bedtime, you should go to bed right now." Gerda said to Anna. Anna nodded and she walked into her bedroom.
"Good night, Gerda." Anna gave a little wave to Gerda.
"Good night, princess." Gerda replied. Then she closed the door, leaving Anna alone in her own bedroom.
Inside, Anna lay on her bed. She pulled on her blanket and hugged her 'Olaf' tightly.
"Oh, I wish Elsa's here." Anna whispered to 'Olaf'.
"I'm right here." A voice of Elsa suddenly be heard.
Anna opened her eyes and gasped. "Black Elsa!" She looked at the black shadow that resemblances Elsa, standing in front of her. "Oh, how I missed you!" Anna opened her arms to the Black Elsa, but she can't hug her. Instead, she only hugged the air.
"You silly, you can't hug me. Don't you remember that?" The shadow Elsa giggled.
"Oh, yeah. Sorry." Anna giggled and slapped her forehead. But her giggles only lasted for a few seconds. Then, her happy face turned to the previous one. "Black Elsa," Anna whispered, not too slow.
"Uh-uh?"
"Can you go check on Elsa? I wanted to know what she did right now." Anna made a weird request. But for her, it seems normal after all.
There was a short silence from Black Elsa. She thought for the best answer to Anna. She didn't want to see Elsa, as she was Elsa. Shadows of Elsa. "Maybe she's sleeping." A logical answer that little kids can understand.
Anna frowned. "She won't go to sleep this early." She protested.
"Maybe she's tired. Oh, and you shall go to sleep right now." Black Elsa replied.
"I'm not tired! I want to play..." Anna yawned, but she kept her eyes wide. "First." She finished her sentence.
"See? You yawned. Go to sleep." Black Elsa ordered Anna to sleep. "Good night!" Then she's gone disappear into thin air.
"Black Elsa! Ugh..." Anna didn't get to stop Black Elsa to go. She yawned again and started sleeping. And she hoped her dream will be about Elsa, about both of them.
