New chapter guys!Hope you enjoy it!(even though isn't so happy...but i still hope)
Elsa ran down the stairs and passed by the dining room. A servant had woken up from the noise and disturbance and was leaving her chamber to go and see what was going on. While stepping towards the main corridor of the palace holding her candle trying light up the place Elsa appeared from the corner of the corridor having this really scary poker face she used to have when she was furious.
"Your Majesty, you scared me!", the old woman said while jumping back from fear. She leaned her head down while Elsa was approaching her with slow and silent step.
"Don't worry it's ok", Elsa whispered looking around her suspiciously. "Just go back to your room", Elsa said and fended off the old lady leaving her stood there.
"Your Majesty where are you going?", the servant looked Elsa puzzled under the light of the candle.
"I wanna take some fresh air, that's all. Go back to your room", Elsa glanced the servant trying to calmed her down.
The servant seemed confused and went to leave still looking strangely at Elsa. Hopefully ,Elsa saw her leaving and breathed with relief. After that she went to leave towards the door which was leading in the garden but then the female voice of the servant resounded into the silence of the room.
"But I can't leave you alone", the voice was approaching near where Elsa was standing .Elsa clenched her fists and bite her tongue. She turned back to face the old lady who seemed not to giving up so easily.
"Yes you can", Elsa said smiling awkwardly. "Now go back to your room", she said and nodded with her eyes goggled, showing with her hand the way to the servant chambers.
"But that would be incorrect not to accompany you….",the servant insisted.
Elsa felt her patience evaporating. She had made huge efforts to stay clam but that was the overflowing of the glass.
"This was an order!", she yelled as quietly as she could with her eyes goggling from intensity and anger.
The old women felt ashamed and fended off quickly whining silently as disappearing in the corner where they had first met. Elsa sighed and crossed her hands. "Why do they make me be the bad guy?", she mulled over while walking towards the entrance of the garden.
The torches of the garden were off and there was a complete silence. Elsa stepped closer to the door which separated her from the garden. Before doing anything she took a deep breath and made sure that she wasn't being followed. After that she pushed the door which opened, displaying to a spectacle that no one had ever seen in this palace. Elsa felt her head numbing and tears started rolling down her cheeks. Her legs were swelling and her hands were sweating and trembling. Although she had no qualms that this was a real spectacle it was so socking that her brain couldn't accept it.
She approached closer. She could smell the blood everywhere in the garden. Corpses were lying down, all the guards of the garden. She leaned down unspoken and touched the ground feeling the warm blood. She was in sock. She looked straight into the lifeless eyes of the nearest guard who had given his life for defending their life. The royal's family life.
"Do you feel sad?", a male voice sounded from behind making Elsa woke up. She looked her bloody hands and a tear rolled down her cheek.
"I asked you something! Do you feel SAD?", the man yelled at her stepping nervously back and forth.
Elsa breathed but the air wasn't enough. She felt suffocating and tried desperate to find some more air. But she couldn't. She only whispered "Yess….".
"I am sorry I can't hear you…what did you say?", the man was playing games with her feeling somehow the winner of this battle between them.
Elsa into her illusions , could find something common to this voice. She stood up stumbling but succeed to hold on her feet.
"Where do you think you're going?", the ironic voice of the man sounded closer to her now.
"Home", Elsa whispered giving the idea that she was still lost in her thoughts but inside her she was more awaken than ever trying to detect every single evidence that could prove that she knew him really well.
"Oh , really? Did you miss home?", the man kept playing with words ,believing that he had the full control of her.
"Yes I did", Elsa kept playing her role really convincingly.
"But Elsa …. you're a monster. You have no feelings.", the man whispered into her ear, letting the words come out slowly and excruciating.
Elsa goggled her eyes staring the ground while breathing quickly. She felt losing the ground under her feet. She felt like her blood was rising to her head and she couldn't help herself relax and calmed down. She was uncontrollable and for her being in such a situation was really dangerous.
"Hans!", she yelled and turned back unleashing ice magic from her hands towards the enemy.
Hans coaxed to avoid the harmful blows. Elsa stood there with her hands placed upon her chest ready to unleash more ice if she had to. Meanwhile Hans was cleaning his clothes from the shivers of the ice, looking at Elsa smiling sarcastically.
"Hans what are doing here? I thought you were in prison.", Elsa asked, puzzled but still furious like before.
"Actually is Eragon , no Hans", Hans replied ignoring the question Elsa had made.
"What?", Elsa asked him confused with her look getting darken. One thing she couldn't stand and that was him joking and playing games with her.
"Honey you weren't informed? Oh such a pity…",Hans/Eragon replied to Elsa trying to make his face look sad.
"What do I don't know?", Elsa yelled at him freezing the ground above her.
"Sweetheart I'm dead", Hans replied moving his hands up and down to give more emphasis to his words.
"Excuse me?", Elsa looked him suspiciously while crossing her hands.
"Actually people believe I'm dead, but I'm not.", he mumbled and looked at Elsa.
"What do you mean? Speak clearly!", Elsa yelled thinking she had enough.
"I was in prison the past two years but I thought to create my death .Although I faced some difficulties I succeed what I had planned and here I am.", Hans narrated to Elsa while walking nervously back and forth.
Elsa raised her head proudly and sighed silently. Despite the reality in front of her she couldn't believe the story Hans had told her. Something was missing..
"And who died in your place?", Elsa asked and looked him disgusted.
"My nephew Eragon.", a female voice heard behind the roses of the garden.
Elsa looked carefully and realized that Queen Lila was hiding behind the flowers. She put her hands on her mouth and an eye rolled down her cheek. Hot tear like the pain she was feeling because she knew what would happened.
"Oh my Queen you shouldn't be here…",Hans said approaching the Queen.
"How dare you?", Elsa cut his way towards the Queen staring at him angrily. She wouldn't let him pass whatever he would try to do.
"Elsa step aside…",Hans mumbled ,staring at Queen's eyes.
"Now I won't", Elsa insisted pushing him away with her hand ready to release cold and ice.
"Ok then …", Hans replied and pulled out his sword. Elsa was prepared to sacrifice but then something happened. Queen Lila pushed away Elsa who fell down.
"NOOOOOO!", Elsa screamed but it was too late. The sword had found his target into the heart of the poor Queen. Her desperate scream was heard in every corner of the garden and her scared goggled eyes seemed lifeless now. Elsa's face had become red from the intensity. From her beautiful eyes thousands of hot tears were rolling and her hands were trembling. Her throat was burning and pained so much. Such a horrible pain . Hans was standing there breathing quickly from his own intensity.
"Honey I have to leave but before I do that ,I want to give you a present", Hans said while approaching Elsa with steady step. Elsa stared him speechless with her eyes empty. And then Hans pinned the sword into her leg. Elsa's second scream made Thorian and Eric woke up. Elsa watched her bleeding leg and bursted into tears. She let herself cry as much as she could, hiding her head into her arms.
"Elsa!, Thorian and Eric shouted from the entrance of the garden.
Elsa could hear the rapid steps but didn't raise her head. She didn't want to face them and see their look. When she heard their steps stopping near to her she understand that, that was the moment she was afraid most. The moment they would see their mother dead.
"Mother..", Eric whispered and kneeled close to his mum.
Elsa raised her hand and saw the most sad spectacle she had ever seen. Eric was kneeled down holding his mother's hand and Thorian standing still above them , was staring the women that had given birth to him lying down ,on the ground. Although her efforts she could feel her eyelids closing slowly. She could hear Thorian yelling at her but couldn't see much. Just a shadow.
"We have to take her to the healer she's loosing so much blood.", Eric said holding Elsa's head.
Thorian was yelling at Elsa to stay with him with his eyes full of tears without giving any response to Eric.
"Thorian she'll die if we don't carry her inside!", Eric yelled at his brother with his eyes goggled .
Thorian glanced his brother with his eyes full of fear and eventually helped him carry Elsa inside. After a couple of seconds Thorian cut a piece of cloth from his shirt and strapped it on Elsa's leg. Eric yelled the healer who came with fury from his chamber and took the injured Queen to the healing room. As the healer was fending off Thorian and Eric were standing there speechless with their breath cut.
"We have to go and take mum..", Thorian said first and looked thoughtful his brother who seemed out of his depth.
Eric nodded sighing and went to go back when he heard a female voice.
"Eric ,Thorian..?", Amelia asked while standing at the egde of the staircase.
Both brothers turned their heads back surprised. They couldn't believe on what they were watching.
"Amelia is that you?", Eric asked silently while stepping closer to the girl.
"Yes is me where is Elsa?", Amelia got closer to his brother and hugged him.
"We thought he had lost you forever, how you get here?",Thorian asked smiling at her caressing her white cheeks.
Amelia took his older brother hands and stared him in the eyes. Eric looked her confused and nodded her to speak.
"Where is Elsa? Mum and dad?", she asked looking around the place to see if they were nearby.
Thorian glanced Eric and both looked thoughtful their little sister. Amelia looked them puzzled.
"What's going on? What happened ?",Amelia asked with her voice trembling from the intensity she was strangely feeling.
"Honey mum…",Eric tried to say but words didn't come out so easily for such an incident. A tear rolled down his face and he held Amelia's hands tighter. Amelia looked him sadly and understood.
"Is what I believe ..?",Amelia whispered unable to raised her voice. Thorian ,nodded her and bite his tongue, trying to hold his own tears not to come out. Amelia kneeled down , bursting into tears without believing what had just happened. Immediately her brothers hugged her and tried to calm her down. "She's just a little girl", Thorian mulled over while caressing his sister's hair. Suddenly the healer came out, obviously thoughtful and looked the two princes holding their little sister. Despite the fact that he didn't expect that, he smiled and called out the younger prince. Thorian approached confused the healer who seemed puzzled like something was bothering him.
"Is everything ok?",Thorian asked while playing awkwardly with his fingertips.
"I'm truly sorry Your Highness for your lost but there's something I want to speak you about. And it's emergency otherwise I wouldn't bother you.", the healer replied seriously to the young prince.
"What is about?", Thorian tried to understand.
"It's about Queen Elsa.", the healer replied and sighed.
