Hellooooo all! Enjoy this new chapter of our Frozen AU! If you like it, giv us a fav! If you feel inclined to express your opinion on it, write a review! Here it is!

As Anna ran towards the lake, she saw Elsa walk into the forest. Anna had heard from the orientation, for the short time she was there, that the forests were off limits to college students. They had said that dangerous monsters could be out there, monsters of snow and ice. Anna knew about magic; she had heard stories of it from her friends at the orphanage and the stories Oaken used to tell them. For all she knew, magic was an arcane study, practiced only by a select few groups who lived in isolation in various parts of the world. Anna, however, wasn't thinking about magic or monsters when she ran into the forest, only Elsa.

Elsa had walked into the forest as Anna had run up to the lake. Anna judged that Elsa was about 20 meters ahead of her in the forest at most. Quietly, Anna crept into the forest, so that Elsa wouldn't know of her presence. Anna followed Elsa's trail quietly, making sure not to step on any sticks and stay hidden behind trees in case Elsa turned around. Elsa was easy to spot because of her blue sweater, and Anna thanked herself for deciding to wear that black windbreaker, because it was not as bright a color.

After walking for a good 100 meters into the forest, Anna saw Elsa stop at a clearing in the forest brush. There were no trees in this clearing; only the wild grass grew in the dirt. Anna stopped and observed Elsa behind a large rock. She saw Elsa stride into the middle of the clearing, which was shaped like a circle with a radius of about 5 meters. Anna watched as Elsa stood right in the center and faced opposite the way she had come, her arms crossed and her head bent downward. Anna watched in anticipation. Should she reveal herself now? OR should she wait to see what Elsa was going to do?

But Anna stayed patient. And as she waited, she was rewarded for her tenacity by a stunning spectacle.

Anna saw Elsa's hands go up to her sides. Then, all of a sudden, snow appeared in the palms of her hands. Elsa threw the snow up into the air, controlling its movements, and making beautiful spirals and waves in the air. Anna stared on as Elsa threw up a puff of snow and it exploded in the air, raining down in flakes. They shone in the sunlight.

And then, Elsa did something Anna didn't see coming. Elsa clapped her hands together and starting spinning the snow within them. She bent her knees and threw her hands forward at a tree she had scoped out. Out of her hands flew a ball of icy power, which hit the tree and spread throughout its trunk. After about 4 seconds, the entire tree was ice, all the molecules having crystalized within it due to Elsa's concentrated iceball. The tree started to dissolve in the wind, and the tree disintegrated into ice particles that flew away on the wind. They reflected the sunlight as they floated away.

At this point, Anna was mesmerized. Who knew she would be a roommate with a secret ice sorceress! Anna thought those people only existed in isolation, or not at all! To have witnessed this amazing sight was an honor within itself. But at the same time, Anna was nervous… had Elsa used this power against her enemies? Did Elsa have any enemies? Well, there was Hans…

Anna was brought back to her senses when she heard a quiet whimper. Anna looked at Elsa who was now on her knees, letting out quiet sobs. Instantly, Anna's empathy kicked in, and she felt Elsa's pain. Having a power you couldn't tell anyone about for fear of ridicule, having a boyfriend that you hate… Anna felt horrible.

So she was going to do something about it.

Anna stepped into the clearing. She walked up behind Elsa.

"Elsa…" Anna said tentatively.

Elsa was startled and turned around with fright in her eyes. As she spun around, she put her legs under her and stood up rapidly, instinctively putting her hand up in front of her in defense. Her eyes were wide open.

"Anna… wh-what, what are you doing here, why are you here!?" Elsa backed away from Anna, who was still walking toward here slowly.

"Elsa, wait, don't go! Don't be scared!" Anna put her hands up also, to hopefully signify her lack of hostility towards Elsa.

"I, I saw what you did, but I'm not scared! I, I'm not scared of you!"

Elsa put her hand down. She stood up straight with cold blue eyes looking into Anna's scared ones. Her eyebrows came together to form a look of confusion mixed with anger, and a hint of fear.

"Well… you should be." Elsa's hands glowed white with snow at her sides, as she tried to look as intimidating as she could. She didn't want to involve Anna in any of this any more than she already had been. Even Anna knowing about her power was dangerous.

"But I'm not! Elsa, with the tree and the snow, that, that was… that was amazing!" Anna still advanced cautiously. "And the snow shapes, and… and I, I thought about what it must be like… I'll admit that I am taken aback, but Elsa, that was just…" Anna stopped walking and stood up, looking Elsa into the eyes. "… Just beautiful."

Now it was Elsa's turn to be taken aback. Beautiful? The only other person who had told her that was her mother…

At that point, Elsa's self control was waning. Her hands stopped glowing as Ana once again started to walk up to her. Elsa was scared. Was Anna lying?

Why would she accept me… I shouldn't believe her! I should run!

But Elsa's feet would not move. She was too mesmerized by Anna's eyes. Those eyes… so blue, so inviting, so harmless… so honest… Elsa couldn't help but feel comforted by them.

Run, you idiot!

Elsa's thoughts ran rampant, but still she just stood there as Anna advanced.

Anna was face to face with Elsa now. Elsa stood frozen, looking into Anna's eyes, Anna looking into hers. And then, Elsa was wrapped in the most intimate hug she had ever experienced. Her parents, or her "boyfriend" had never hugged her. This same person had only hugged her yesterday. And yet, this hug embrace was so different from yesterday's… Elsa felt wrapped in warmth and comfort as Anna wrapped her arms around Elsa's neck and laid her head on Elsa's shoulder. Elsa's self control melted away from the hug's warmth. Her hand fell limp at her sides, and her legs began to tremble as they lost strength beneath her. As Elsa's arms wrapped Anna around her waist, she let out a quiet whimper.

So this is what a real hug feels like…

Elsa didn't want Anna's hug to end… Anna was so nice. The way they had walked around, and talked completely naturally yesterday as they roamed campus… Elsa was so overrun with emotions, that she just continued to cry into Anna's shoulder.

Oh Anna… thank you… thanks you so much…

After a while, Anna ended the embrace, arms still around Elsa's neck. She looked into Elsa's eyes for any sign of fear and found none.

"Anna… you've got to promise not to tell anyone about this…" said Elsa.

Anna could tell that Elsa trusted her. She felt so happy that she did. A huge smile crept across Anna's face as her chest swelled with indescribable joy.

"I promise." Anna kept on smiling.

And Elsa smiled back.

Anna came back to her senses then, and realized that Kristoff was probably still worried about her. She decided that she had to go back and find the orientation again, if she could. But she couldn't leave without Elsa.

"Elsa, come on! Let's go back, okay?"

Elsa looked scared for a moment, but then silently agreed. "Okay, let's."

Anna let go of Elsa's neck and started to turn around. "So what were you doing out by the lake by yourself? Were you just lonely?" Anna said as she reached for Elsa's hand.

Elsa started to answer Anna's question, but didn't notice Anna's move towards her hand, and reacted too late.

Anna's hand touched Elsa's.

Instantly, Anna's body bent backward, as if a jolt went through it. With her eyes wide open looking up through the sky, Anna fell backwards. The last thing Anna saw before she fainted was Elsa's startled and frightful face, with her hands to her wide open mouth, screaming, "ANNA!"

Then black.
