Here's part 2 of Ice Wrecker: Beginnings. I think this story is making me go soft.
As a recap: Vanellope and Ralph have gone to Arendale to discuss trade, and Ralph and Elsa are seeing each other for the first time.
Elsa was intrigued by this man named Ralph. He looked intimidating, yet harmless, as though he was gentle and good-hearted but could put up a fight if it was necessary. She then realized he was still bowing. "You may rise," she informed him. Ralph looked up in confusion, but got the message and stood. "Okay, let's start the meeting!" Anna reminded everyone why they were here. "Oh, yes," Elsa said, snapping out of her thoughts. "Let's begin."
The meeting was a success. It was somewhat boring in some parts, but a trade agreement was reached after 2 presentations and a lot of questions. Anna and Elsa then declared there would be a party in the ballroom later that evening. Elsa was reluctant at first, remembering what had happened last time, but Anna was able to persuade her. "Alright, but no engaging to anyone you just met." Anna laughed. "Okay first of all, I learned my lesson. Second of all, I already got a great boyfriend named Kristoff!" Elsa just rolled her eyes. "Hey," Anna then stopped. "Where's your boyfriend, huh?" Elsa hated this subject, and Anna knew all too well. "Anna, we don't talk about that," the Queen scolded. "If a guy does come, I'll know." Just then, Vanellope walked back in. "Hey, Redhead, some blonde guy is looking for you. Anna headed out to find him. "And your highness, I wanna talk about something." "Is there a problem?" Elsa asked worriedly. Had she offended the people of Sugar Rush? "I wanna talk…about my bodyguard, Ralph."
Elsa had been taken an interest in this Ralph fellow, so she sat down and invited Vanellope to do the same. "I've found that Ralph can make people uncomfortable," Vanellope said matter-of-factually. "Did he with you?" "No…why?" Elsa couldn't see why anyone would think such a thing. Vanellope simply replied with: "He's very misunderstood. Your Highness. He's had such a rough life." Elsa was shocked. If there were two things Elsa could relate to, it was being misunderstood and having a rough past. "Tell me more, please," Elsa asked. Vanellope told her Ralph's entire story: how he had been alone for years, how he had ran away and nearly created his world's destruction, and how he used to be treated like a monster, and why? Because he was programmed to be a bad guy! Elsa couldn't believe it. Her story was just like that! Except no Cy-bugs, of course. Elsa went deep into thought. She had never heard of anyone more relatable to her. "You okay, Elsa?" Vanellope's voice broke her thoughts. "Yes. Yes, I was just thinking." She wanted to get to know Ralph better and to be his friend. "That's everything. Vanellope told her. "See ya!"
Meanwhile, Ralph was sitting on a bench outside, watching Kristoff and Sven play hockey. Quite a few fights broke out on the ice. "And I thought hockey in Mario Sports Mix was crazy!" Ralph said as he watched the puck fly up and away. He then turned around. He couldn't quit thinking about the Queen. She was beautiful, no gorgeous! Ralph sighed, figuring she was out of his league. Just then he tripped over, to his surprise, a talking snowman. "Hey, big guy, what's your name?" the snowman said after Ralph got up. Ralph looked at him a few seconds, before responding: "Ralph. Wreck-it Ralph" "I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs!" He put his arms in a hugging motion. Ralph thought, and then gave Olaf a soft hug. "You live around here?" Ralph asked. "Yeah, Queen Elsa built me!" Ralph's eyes lit up at the name Elsa. "Have you met Queen Elsa?" Olaf asked innocently. "Yeah, she seems fantastic!" "Oh, she is!" Olaf grinned, "Even if her past was no carrot on the face." Olaf then told Ralph the whole story of Elsa's past: her ice powers, how she had run away in fear and accidentally started an eternal winter, all that he knew. Ralph couldn't help but feel sorry for the poor girl. He wanted to be her friend. Even if everything had been fixed. Just then a puck smacked Ralph in the face. "Sorry!" Kristoff yelled. Ralph shook off the pain and then thought about the party that was to be held that night. He wasn't very social, but wanted to try something. He turned to Olaf and asked if there was a place he could shower. After Olaf told him where, he went that way, feeling the most excited he had in a long time.
What does Ralph have in mind? Stay tuned! (It might be a few days, thanks to school, but I'll update ASAP!)
