There's no way I heard that right. There's just no way.
"W…what?!"
Elsa just smiles with patience and understanding. "You heard me. How would you like Anna and I to become your sisters? I'm sure she would readily agree to it."
I'm so shocked by Elsa's question, I almost start crying again, my emotions still all over the place. "Elsa…" I breathe out, so many feelings lacing her name. Shock, disbelief, hope, apprehension, eagerness, and love…
Elsa yet again uses her powers to remove the new moisture glistening in my eyes, the icy wind oddly soothing to them. There's no pain, no discomfort, not even with my contacts, and I feel proud that she's gained such control over her powers. "Kendra, everyone deserves to know the love of a sister. And right now, I can think of no one more deserving than you. Anna and I have rekindled our relationship as sisters, so it's only fair that you get to experience it as well. And I'm sure Anna would love nothing more than to help you out as well."
I sniffle with a smile, trying to rein in my emotions again, eyes still glued to the road and the cars in front of me. "Elsa…I would love nothing more, than to have you both as my sisters…" I manage a glance at her, and she's wearing the biggest, happiest smile, it's almost like the one she wore when she used her powers for good in her kingdom, when they were well received, and when she and Anna were skating around the ice rink she created in the castle courtyard. It's a smile that makes me feel really happy, just seeing it. She squeezes my hand tight, and I squeeze hers in return, smiling back at her for all of the moment I allow myself to, returning my gaze yet again to the road so I can still drive safely, not wanting to harm either of us.
Elsa finally relinquishes my hand so I can return it to the steering wheel, driving with both hands now instead of just one, but the feeling of her warm touch still lingers. It already feels like I have a sister…and I revel at the new feelings bubbling up inside of me. However, after a few moments of basking in the warmth, it's time we got down to business.
"Kendra…I believe now I must explain further of what is going on with Arendelle."
I nod in understanding. "Sounds good to me. Once we figure out what we can do, we'll do it."
"Well, these dark, magical forces I spoke of, not only did they connect my world with yours, but they placed some kind of spell on them. The truth is, you are the only person who can see me, or hear me."
I'm actually shocked by this, wondering how stupid I probably looked back when I pulled over on the interstate to call out to Elsa. But I'm also relieved, because it means she's safer here too.
"So when you showed such willingness to help me," Elsa continues, "you have no idea how happy that made me, for you are my only hope. It's part of the spell the dark magic has in place. Our worlds are connected, though only one would be able to see and hear me. That person is you, and I feel as if it is no coincidence, but fate that brought us together." I blush heavily. "Kendra, blood or not, I feel it is our destiny to be connected as sisters; you, me, and Anna."
I blush more with a sheepish, shy smile. "Elsa, why do you have to be so…so…agh I dunno the word!" I giggle, still blushing, and Elsa joins me in some laughter.
"It's alright, I understand, more than you probably realize."
"Right," I lightly chuckle, feeling light as a feather thanks to this new, strange turn of events. "So then, Elsa, I guess now we figure out, how are we going to get back to Arendelle, and how am I going to be able to help you stop these dark, magical forces, and save Arendelle?"
Elsa doesn't respond, so I turn to look at her, and am a little surprised to see she's just giving me a knowing smirk.
"Easy."
