Chapter 17
Anna didn't know how long she had been held for she usually was left alone in the dark quiet room where they held her.
"The Queen is growing desperate, she's acting out in anger... Of we're lucky they might just kill her for us." one of the men laughed.
Anna listened carefully she needed to hear this. Moving as close as se could towards the voices, she breathed lightly listening to the men as they spoke of what was happening outside in Arendelle.
"Do we really need the Princess? Can't we get rid of her?"
"No, no." the deep voiced man told the other in a strict voice. "that wouldn't be good. It might spark suspicion and we don't want that... We must stick to our plan."
"Do we still send the Queen this letter?"
The man thought for a moment. "No, we shouldn't. I have a better idea, the next time the Queen asks for everyone to gather at the castle we shall bring the princess to her. Make it public... Give her an offer she won't be able to refuse, stand down from power or we will kill Princess Anna."
Anna gasped and was horrified, she knew Elsa could never make that choice... Unless she gave up her title Anna would die. Not only did they still intend to force the Queen to make this choice. They now wanted to make a spectacle of it... Instead of speaking to her in private they would bring Anna to her at the castle.
"ELSA WON'T EVER PUT JER KINGDOM IN DANGER!" Anna screamed at them in the darkness.
Feet scuffled on the floor and footsteps got louder as the men approached her. "Got a little eavesdropper don't we?" he laughed.
"We have seen how much love you and your sister share, she is growing angry and desperate because of you. Elsa would give up Arendelle in a heartbeat to save you... don't you know that Love is the greatest weakness..." the man smirked and held the girls chin laughing lightly.
"Pathetic girls." he murmured under his breath. Princess Anna pulled away and dug her nails into his arm. "My sister will eliminate you, she will destroy you, because you threaten everyone here and Arendelle is in danger The Queen will not take your punishment lightly."
The man grabbed Anna's wrist and threw it away, he was much stronger than her. "You foolish girl, we will not be punished, or taken captive... If anyone will die it will be the Queen... Don't you know what shes done?"
Anna shook her head, of course he didn't. She had been locked up here for many many days. "No, I... I don't know.." she stammered nervously.
"Your precious sister is a monster, she's growing evil and murderous. She's killed people for their disobedience. Frozen them to death, and shattered them, she keeps some as statues in the garden."
Anna grew even more horrified as the man began to speak. She couldn't believe what he had said about Elsa. "No, no." Anna replied in tears. "No, Elsa would never do that, she's good. My sister is no monster."
Standing above the princess the man could only laugh. "I am telling you the truth and when we take you to see your sister... You will see how evil she has grown, how she hates the people of Arendelle. It will be easy for her to give up this pathetic kingdom for the only thing she cares about..." the deep voiced man paused for a few moments. "You."
Leaving Anna he slammed the door and left the princess to her thoughts.
Anna had moved and was curled up into a corner. Thoughts traveling through her brain faster than the speed of light. She wondered if what her captor said was true, that Elsa really was evil.
The Queen really didn't care about Arendelle anymore and was killing people and freezing them to death. Terrorizing the village and striking fear into the hearts of the kingdom's citizens. Tears ran down her face at a steady pace, she didn't want to believe her sister was a monster.
Anna continued crying until she fell asleep in the corner of the room, laying on the stone cold floor. When the Princess awoke she was in the same position and no light filled the room. There was only darkness surrounding her, and she thought about when she would get to see the light again.
It was mostly her and her thoughts that day. Until she realized everything was quiet for much too long. No voices or whispering and laugher from the men who captured her. Anna took this as her chance to escape.
She found the door of the room she was being kept in, it must be locked. Trying to pull it open kicking it, anything to get out before anybody returned. Many failed attempts later Anna sat down in frustration and buried her face her hands.
Devastated nothing had worked despite her efforts. The princess drew her knees close, she only wanted to get back to her sister.
"Princess" rang a voice as a light grew from the distance the man neared her and hung the small lantern outside the cellar. "The Queen has grown restless in the months you've been gone. She is angry, the guards have asked her to quit the search for you once again."
Anna stood and travelled towards the light source. "Elsa may have her concerns but she will not give up her title for me." Anna lied, she knew that Elsa would save her, give up Arendelle and her title as Queen.
"That is where you are wrong Princess, your sister is weak and Pathetic. She is losing the kingdom as we speak, soon the citizens of Arendelle will rise against her. Give you to her in exchange for the kingdom and a way out of Arendelle will be like a gift. So long as the people don't kill her first."
Anger rose up inside the Princess, not only had she been here for months, but they treated her terribly. After a while she grew hungry and ate whatever they gave her.
Then man stared at her for the longest time. "Weather you like it or not Princess the Queen is a monster, she's a murderer and our offer is one she will never refuse."
