Elsa descended the stairs with slow and steady step. As she was walking she was looking around the servants passing by her with quick step filled with dishes with delicious food. She smelled with pleasure the fresh-cooked meals and reached the big garden door. She stood still and took a deep breath. She pushed calmly with her right hand the wooden door and it opened slowly. In front of her the huge garden was spread , full of a variety of flowers and big plants covering the walls on the right and left of the castle. Prince Thorian and Queen Lila were strolling nearby the white roses of the garden , near where the entrance was and where Elsa was standing on.
"Your Majesty ,you're here", prince Thorian said awkwardly surprised by the Elsa's appearance.
"Of course my Prince ,why I wouldn't be?", Elsa replied trying to smile politely as convincingly as she could.
"Elsa come to join us", Queen Lila said while staring at Elsa ." We had an interesting conversation that I would like you to take part ",she continued speaking while coming closer to Elsa.
Elsa tried to fix awkwardly her blue dress but she couldn't avoid Queen's eyes. Wind was blowing faster than before and clouds were gathering in the sky.
"We should better get in it's going to rain", Elsa said while looking puzzled the dark sky.
"You're right Elsa let's get in", King Edfast replied at the edge of the garden while cleaning his sword.
Elsa smiled at him kindly but her eyes caught Prince Thorian staring at her."What's wrong with him?" , she thought while trying to avoid his strange look. Queen Lila took her hand and show her the way towards the dining room. They got in while the rain outside was getting stronger. Elsa tried to fix her hair that had been spoiled from the wind,when she heard a big scream coming from upstairs.
"It's Amelia!",Thorian shouted and ran rapidly upstairs. Queen Lila followed him as King Edfast was turning out his sword. Elsa followed them upstairs with her breath cut. They passed by all the rooms and when they reached her bedroom they saw Eric sat down holding his head.
"Eric what did happen?", King Edfast shook his son by the shoulders.
"She's gone…"…Eric whispered socked.
"What do you mean she's gone?",Thorian yelled at him extremely angry.
Elsa felt terrified by Thorian's reaction and he looked him with fear. He stared at her still angry as before with his eyes glowing from anger that made Elsa leaned her head down.
"I was walking in the corridors of the castle soon after I had ended with my swordsman practice. I heard her scream but when I reached her bedroom the only thing I saw was her being disappeared from the window like something had grabbed her and was trying to pull her out of the window…",Eric said while looking sadly at his mother's side.
"We can try to detect her….we will look for her everywhere in the castle.", Elsa tried to relax them by giving a solution to their problem.
"Don't get involved in our matters!",Thorian shouted staring angrily at Elsa.
"Thorian you should better shut your mouth !, King Edfast yelled at his son. "I'm truly sorry Your Majesty …",King Edfast tried to apologize looking at Elsa with eyes full of sadness.
"No you don't have to apologize ,it's ok…",Elsa calmed down the King and stared angrily the young Prince.
"I believe that Elsa's right..", Eric said while crossing his hands.
"Ok let's go and find her…but where we will look for her?", King Edfast asked his son who looked thoughtful.
"My King ,you and Queen Lila will look for her in the left side of the castle , Eric will try to detect her in the right side , Thorian in the back yard and me in the front yard and as far as I can reach..", Elsa replied instead of Eric and nodded to The King.
"Alright then let's go!",Eric said and they started moving each one towards their own way.
The sun was setting and out of the castle the wind was blowing with fury like never before. Elsa moved towards the front yard where the entrance of the castle was. Around five or six guards were standing still while holding their swords into their chest ready to defend castle's safety. They looked at her side for a second as she was walking nervously back and forth of where they stood.
"Your Majesty how we can I help you?", a tall brunette guard asked with politeness Queen Elsa.
Elsa tried to calmed down and approached the quard . " Princess Amelia been missing and we try to find her. I would be very happy if you could have your eyes open all of you,in case you see something strange happening. It's very important for us to find her.", Elsa said and walked away feeling terrible stressed. She walked steady straight in the bridge of the castle .The bridge seemed dark and creepy. She looked behind her and saw the lights of the castle, particularly from it's entrance. Elsa had fended of about 30 meters but she had to keep looking for the little princess .The wind was getting colder, something that made Elsa feel better. She walked on the top of the bridge looking terrified the black colour of the calm water under her feet. Suddenly a noise was heard ,that make her wake up and feel more fear than before. "Conceal , don't feel, don't let it show…",she whispered with her voice trembling. She made a few more steps ahead when she heard a second noise coming from the shrub nearby. She approach the shrub with her hands ready to unleash ice and cold. She could hear her steady breath and her steps on the old wood of the bridge. The shrub was straight ahead in a distance of a couple meters and Elsa was getting closer to him. She reached the end of the bridge and stood still. The shrub was on her feet. She leaned over and put her hand near to him. She stoped."What if….?",she thought but continued her movement. She could feel the texture of the leaves and their cold temperature.
"Elsa watch out!" , a male voice was heard behind her .
Elsa turned her head back and it was too late for her to react. A sword knocked her down within seconds. The last thing she saw was Thorian fighting above her head.
She woke up feeling dizzy. She hold her head while trying to open her eyes properly. She looked around noticing that she was in a forest and it was morning." Where am I ?",she asked herself confused. She leaned her head back thoughtful but she felt like resting in something durum. She tried to see from the corner of her eye and terrified she realized that she was resting in someone's chest .She jumped up and saw Thorian looking at her with his eyes goggled from surprise.
"What do you think you're doing?", Elsa shouted at him feeling a bit disgraced.
"I SAVED YOUR LIFE!", Thorian stood up and yelled at her.
"Saved my life by what? By making me sleep in your chest!?",Elsa approached him while shaking her finger to him.
"You truly don't remember anything ?", he lowered the tone of his voice and stared her in the eyes.
"What should I remember ?",Elsa stared him in the eyes trying to understand what he was meaning.
"Ok…I see…", Thorian said smiling a bit. "Sit down and let me explain you …",he nodded at her while sitting in a rock nearby." I had ended up searching the back yard and I came to find you in the front yard. I saw the guards and I asked them were you've been and they showed me the bribge. My legs started trembling because I knew you shouldn't go there. I started running towards you but then I saw this man with the black hood behind you trying to kill you and I had no choice but to shout. He knocked you down and I fight with him but he did a kind of signal and more men like him came where we were. I whistled to my horse and I immediately grab you on my shoulders. I jumped into my horse and we started running into the forest. Although they kept following us so I had to keep running all night. The early morning I stopped here and I kept you in my shoulders to sleep because I wouldn't think you would mind perhaps because you were unconscious. But now I get it….",he said and looked her straight in the eyes.
Elsa felt something strange. His look was so deep and so couldn't help but smile at his sight.
"Why do you smile?",he asked Elsa confused by her reaction.
"Nothing just…",she said thoughtful. She raised her head up and stared him in the eyes. He's aquamarine big eyes. "Is just I believe I had misjudge you..", Elsa replied and stood up from the ground where she was sitting.
"Everyone does.", Thorian replied while smiling at her nervously.
"You're a good man prince Thorian",Elsa tried to smile at him honestly this time.
"You too My Queen",Thorian reciprocated the compliment.
"What? A good prince?", Elsa laughed at his mistake and looked him straight in the eyes.
"No ,I mean a good Queen", he replied politely while smiling at her.
They both packed their things and ride Thorian 's horse.
"Where we will go now?",Elsa asked thoughtful and anxious the same time.
"There is a village nearby. We will eat something there and then we will start our journey back to the castle. How does it sound?", he asked while looking at her from the corner of his eye.
"Sounds great.", Elsa replied with confidence like never before.
"Ok then hold tight!", Thorian shouted and hit the guins of the horse,which started running with fury.
Elsa grabbed him from the waistline and they started running like the wind towards the village .But they didn't know what the future hold for them.
