Hello everyone! I am so so so so sorry that it's been like two months since I last posted. As I have said before I go to a very academically intense school and have just been too busy to even think about writing. However, I am out of school now and while I still have a lot of things to do, I will have more time to continue writing. I don't think I will have chapter 6 by this Sunday, but hopefully next Sunday!
I know this is short and honestly not my best work, but I really tried and I hope you enjoy chapter 5!
How could Anna not tell me something like this? How could she?! We promised no more secrets! She couldn't believe what she was hearing… Thoughts raced through Elsa's mind a mile a minute.
The note had fluttered to the ground as Kristoff had told her the news of her sister's condition. Snow had flurried from the ceiling at the queens rising emotions.
"Um... Elsa..." Kristoff said, motioning upward at the oncoming blizzard..
Looking up, Elsa saw what she had done and quickly waved her hands to get rid of it.
"Sorry." The queen murmured.
Remembering the urgency of the situation, she jumped up from the chair she had fallen into at the shock.
"We have to go, We have to find her!" She said her heart pounding in her chest. She began running towards the door.
"Whoa whoa whoa.." Kristoff said, catching up to the queen immediately and reaching his hands out to stop her. "You're not well enough to go anywhere right now." He said looking her over,
It was true Elsa looked much better, but he was not about to risk Elsa's health as well as Anna's right now.
Elsa's icy blue eyes hardened.
"Are you really going to try to stop me from saving my sister?" She questioned, not waiting for a response. "We need to go right now, and you know it. We don't have time to argue." She said, already half way to the door. No way Kristoff could even begin to argue with her. He knew she was right.
"Fine." He said, taking off his jacket. "But will you at least wear this?" He asked, tossing the jacket to her.
Catching it, she flicked her fingers quickly, changing from her loose nightshift to her magnificent blue-green spring dress.
"Thanks," she smiled weakly, gently putting on his jacket, which was about 5 sizes too big for her small frame. She sniffed, rubbing her nose. Brushing off her fatigue, she breathed deeply. "Let's go."
They both headed towards the big doors, both thinking the same thing; I hope we're not too late
...
Anna's teeth chattered. She was so cold, but she had the sensation she was burning. She could feel her clothing sticking to her body from sweat, making her even more chilled.
Olaf had been closely monitoring the princess' condition, and finally decided that enough was enough. The snowgies were on either side of her. Whenever she began to sway in one direction, they balanced her out. It had been working, but now Anna was growing too weak to support her own weight at all and they were only so strong seeing as they were made from snow.
"Okay Anna, that's it." Olaf said sharply, stopping in his tracks. The princess turned around, surprised by the snowman's force behind his words.
"W-what?" She stammered out, followed by a cough that shook her body.
"You are sick whether you want to admit it or not." Olaf said, softer than he had spoken before, not wanting to scare the clearly ill princess. "We are dropping off the snowgies and getting you straight to bed." He said with pure concern, walking up to her, the snowgies making a path for him as he went. He helped her straighten up.
"Olaf, you know I have to work. Elsa's sick and without me there's nobody to ta- achoo!" She was interrupted by a sneeze, "take care of the castle." She finished, sniffing into her sleeve.
"I'm sure Kai can manage." Olaf reasoned. He looked up to see the great staircase leading to the ice castle. They had made it.
As nice as her warm bed sounded, Anna was not ready to go back to the castle, nor was she ready to face her sister for that matter. She was confused by what had happened the night before and was blaming herself for everything that had happened since Elsa had struck her the first time.. When she was only 5 apparently.
Ignoring his request Anna started to walk towards the staircase, only to feel a twig hand grab her own.
"No Anna, just sit down and rest." Olaf said quietly, "I can manage on my own, I promise."
The girl stopped, an unexplainable anger tore throughout her small body. Her hands curled into fists and she shut her eyes tightly.
She was sick and tired of being treated like a child. She was 19, and did not appreciate being told what she could and could not do. After everything that she had heard from the doctor, her sisters confessions the night before, this was the last straw. It was unnatural for the princess to be this angry. Anna could probably count the amount of times she was truly upset on one hand. But this topped it off. Maybe it was the pounding in her head, the terrible headache she's possessed all morning, or the burning chills she had. But she had had it with everything this morning.
"Olaf!" She shouted, "I am not 5 years old anymore I can take care of myself!"
She turned and walked towards the tall, regal staircase. Olaf and the snowgies gaped at disbelief at what had just come out of Anna's mouth. It was Anna we were talking about here. Sweet sweet Anna... This was completely and utterly uncharacteristic of her even if she was sick.
Anna trudged towards the steps,fighting her way through the deep snow. She reached the icy staircase, making it up the first couple of steps before an overwhelming sense of dizziness overcame her. Her already blurry vision doubled and she couldn't tell up from down. She searched for the railing but her hands found nothing but air.
"Olaf?" She tried to say, her words coming out in just a whisper.. "Help... me.." But before the snow man could as much as react, the princess' eyes rolled into the back of her head. Everything went black and she fell hard on the ice, hitting her head on the corner of the bottom stair.
I AM NOW TAKING SUGGESTIONS - WHAT DO YOU WANT TO HAPPEN NEXT?
