Stay Frosty!
Chapter 17
Elsa slowly opened her eyes, focusing on the hot, stone floor of her cell. She could have swore she heard someone scream. She looked up, realizing there was people in the room with her. The dim lighting of the room casting shadows across the floor. She was trying to focus on the three people in the room when a familiar voice rang out from the cell.
"You bastards!" One of the people rushed into another, but was quickly shoved to the floor, and was delivered a swift kick. One of them laughed.
"You two have fun." They quickly left the room and locked the door. Elsa hung her head to look back at the floor. She couldn't help but feel like she knew the voice, her mind was trying to figure out who it was when the person started moving.
"Ugh, Elsa? Elsa can you hear me?" The figure started to move and struggle against the metal around her wrists. Elsa was still trying to figure out who the voice belonged too. She slowly looked back up and noticed copper hair. Pain shot through her chest when she found out who the voice belonged to.
"Anna?" Her voice cracked and came out weak. Anna started to worm her way over to Elsa. Elsa was confused and hurt when she remembered that she couldn't save Anna. She tried to move against her shackles but it only caused her to rub against her raw skin.
Anna was near Elsa now. "Elsa, everything will be okay. Trust me." Anna was now close enough to see how badly scarred Elsa was.
"S-s-stay back A-Anna." Her voice was weak and in cracked when she said Anna's name. "I d-don't want them t-to hurt y-you to." Anna started to whimper when she realized Elsa was still looking out for her.
"Elsa, I'm sor-" She was cut short when she heard a loud bang against the door. Elsa and Anna's head shot to the door waiting for whoever it was to come through. Anna started scooting away from the door and Elsa tried to use her powers. Every time Elsa would summon enough strength to use them, the heat of the room would almost instantly melt it. They heard the key enter the door and they braced themselfs.
The door swung open to reveal two men. One of them had blonde hair, and the other had jet black, both were matted to their foreheads from sweat.
"Anna, Elsa, are you guys okay?" The blonde haired one rushed over and helped Anna stand up.
"Kristoff? What are you two doing here?" Elsa groaned in relief when she heard that it was Kristoff. Kristoff glanced over at Elsa.
"Holy shit. Dakota come help me, quick!" Dakota entered the room with a set of keys and began unlocking Elsa's chains. Anna looked at the two men.
"As happy as I am to see you guys, you still haven't answered my question." Dakota had just unlocked the last of Elsa's chains and she fell onto him, wincing when her cuts met his clothing. Kristoff walked over to Anna.
"They're on to us." He quickly unlocked the cuffs around Anna's hands.
"What?" She turned to look at Kristoff with a look af disbelief in her eyes.
Dakota turned to look at them with a unconscious Elsa on one of his shoulders. "I hate to break up the reunion, but we kinda have to go!" They both nodded their heads and started to make their way out of the cell. Anna looked down at one of the unconscious guards at her feet and reached down and grabbed his sword. Kristoff looked at her skeptically. She shrugged her shoulders. "May need it."
Kristoff started climbing up the stairs to the surface with Anna behind him and Dakota and Elsa at the back. He drew his sword and pushed open the door at the top, stepping out into the hallway. Once everyone was in the hallway, Kristoff spoke up.
"I have to go and get Beth, Dakota, take them to the service tunnel and follow it North. It should lead you to dump site, where you can escape into the forest." Kristoff turned on his heels, getting himself ready to run.
"Okay, Kristoff, stay alive and meet us by the beach we came in on. Remember don't play hero." Kristoff nodded his head and smirked, bofore he started sprinting toward Beth's cell.
Daktoa turned and drew his sword with his free hand, the other supporting Elsa while he carried her. "Listen, stay on my heels. DO NOT wander off. Let's go."
He began sprinting down some of the hallways, Anna always sticking close behind. He turned one of the corners and nearly fell from his sudden stop. Anna nearly charged into his back. She looked around him and noticed four guards armed, ready to stop them.
Anna gripped her sword harder trying to remember any lessons from her teacher on sword play. Two of the guards started toward Dakota, while the other two walked towards Anna. She could hear Dakota's labored breathing from carrying Elsa, and she knew that they stood no chance.
Anna gritted her teeth and prepared herself for the inevitible battle that was about to unfold. One of the men charged Anna. For a moment, everything went slow motion and Anna quickly sidestepped and jammed her sword into the man. She felt like a different person, someone who was quick and precise not clumsy and slow.
She barred her teeth as she charged the other man. She easily knocked his sword out of his hand and thrust hers against him. She quickly pulled her sword out and glanced over to Dakota, who was now fighting with a rather large gash in his leg.
He parried and slashed a long gash into one of the men, staining his sword and the floor, red. The other was taken aback when Anna came and disarmed him. He stumbled and fell, to which Dakota thrust his sword into the mans chest.
Dakota fell onto one knee, and soon layed Elsa down onto the ground before falling over himself. He grabbed his upper leg where the gash was. He ripped open his pant leg and looked at it. it was rather deep and bleeding a lot. Anna crouched down beside him.
"Anna listen to me, I can't walk much farther, and as cliche as this sounds, you have to go on without me." Anna leaned forward and looked at the wound.
"Come on Dakota, it's not that bad. Y-you can make it come on." She grabbed his arm and tried to pull him up, but he yanked her back down.
"Get Elsa and get to safety, meet Kristoff and Beth at the beach we came here on. You can do this." Footsteps could be heard coming from down the hall from where they came from.
"Come on Dakota don't do this!"
"Anna GO! There is nothing waiting for me back there. Take my keys and get to the service tunnel, its the next hallway on the right now GO." He shoved Anna toward Elsa.
Anna hurridly nodded her head while she picked Elsa up, bridal style. She started running, leaving Dakota behind. She rounded the corner where Dakota told her to go, and was met with a small hatch. She quickly opened the hatch using one of Dakota's keys and put Elsa inside and she soon followed.
She followed the hatch as far as it could go. It let off at a small dump site for trash and sewage. She quickly climbed out (as fast as she could while carrying Elsa) and made a mad dash for the woods hoping that no one had seen her come this way.
She ran until she literally collasped from exhaustion. Elsa laid beside her. Anna's breaths came in long heavy ones, but she was glad to finally be outside of that god-forsaken prison. She could finally breath easier and it was cooler, so much cooler.
After a short rest she picked Elsa back up, careful not to touch her cuts, and carried her towards the beach they came here on. Upon arriving, it was becoming dark, and she hasn't seen any patrols come searching for her. She figured that they were far enough away, so she made a makeshift camp by a large tree.
She sat down against the base of the trunk and laid Elsa on her lap, propping her head up with her thighs. She had gotten a good look at Elsa since she had laid there.
Her breaths were quick and shallow, her cuts seemed to be free of infection but she didn't know for how long and her hair was greasy and unkempt. She also noticed how beautiful Elsa still was after all of this. She leaned down and brushed a stray piece of hair off of her face and gave a feather light kiss on Elsa's lips.
She leaned back onto the tree and was immediately lost in Elsa's breaths. Sleep somehow found its way to Anna and she was soon asleep with Elsa on her lap.
