"I'll go easy on you because you're blind" Prince Terrance said with a smirk while Magnus just scoffed
"Fine go easy on you but I will not go easy on you, your highness" Magnus voice dripped with sarcasm as he held his sword tighter
"Magnus be careful and no blood please" Tom said to his friend who nodded
"Don't worry, I promise this will be over in less than thirty seconds" Magnus smiled at Tom who rolled his eyes while Prince Terrance scoffed and said
"It will only take ten seconds for me to take you down!" Prince Terrance shouted as they both got in a ready stance. Magnus noticed that there was a crowd forming around them because of their heartbeats beating fast from excitement and some worry "Make your move peasant!" Magnus shook his head and bowed at Prince Terrance which only angered him more
"No your highness you should make the first move as you are more important" Magnus said with a smirk on his face making Prince Terrance frown "so please move your highness" Magnus heard the Prince's charge towards him and his heartbeat fast trying to pump blood around his body which made Magnus smirk then he heard the vibration in the air which told him where the sword was that made him parry with his own sword. Prince Terrance was frowned even more as their swords were grinding against each other. Magnus proved to be stronger as he easily pushed Prince Terrance back making him grit his teeth as he put more power to make his sword move closer to Magnus but the blind man sword's wasn't moving closer to Magnus but towards the Prince.
"Not bad for a peasant" Magnus didn't say anything just listened carefully at his movements "I always win my fights" Magnus heard a click in the distance, he instantly knew it was a gun ready to fire making him tut and shake his head
"Tom rooftop on the right" Magnus told Tom who quickly turned his head and picked up a stone and threw it shooter knocking him out. Prince Terrance was surprised that the range of Magnus's hearing, he looked around to make a plan then smirked at an idea. Prince Terrance jumped back to create space between them.
"So you have a good hearing" Magnus got a little worried at what the Prince was planning. Prince Terrance saw a bell tower behind Magnus and the bell was quite large which made the royal smirk as he pulled out his pistol and shot the bell which made a loud ringing causing Magnus to drop his sword and cover his ears and shouted in pain as everything around him was shaking and ringing making Prince Terrance laugh. Magnus had a blurry vision, he was seeing twos of everyone around him.
"AGGHHH!" Magnus shouted as Prince Terrance kept shooting the bell and it took ten shots until Prince Terrance ran out of bullets while Magnus was on his knees covering his ears that started to bleed due to the loud sound which hurt his sensitive ears.
"It's over" Prince Terrance walked over with a sword in his hand ready to finish Magnus until a strong arctic wind froze him against the wall "Queen Elsa!" he shouted "this man has insulted me, he deserves this" Elsa glared at the Prince who shivered in fear at the anger in her eyes
"You insulted him first Prince Terrance, if this is how you treat people in your Kingdom then I fear for them" Elsa kneeled beside Magnus who wasn't covering his ears any more but his hands were scrambling around the floor. Magnus's vision was vibrating he felt that the ground was shaking "Are you alright Magnus?" Elsa asked worriedly to the blind man who was shaking as he closed his eyes trying to get everything balanced.
"Magnus" Maria and Kaleb ran over to their son "are you okay?" Maria asked her son as she placed Magnus's head on her lap while his head was turning from side to side
"M-m-mak-make it st-stop, ever-everything is sh-shaking" Magnus clenched his fist tightly. After a few minutes, Magnus felt everything stopped shaking then Tom looked at his bleeding ears.
"Okay Magnus your ears are a little damaged but should heal over time but I suggest that you should rely on your touch and nose for a while okay?" Magnus nodded then his hand felt his mother's hand which helped him on his feet.
"Can you walk sweetheart?" Maria asked her son who nodded slowly.
"But I don't think I can see where I'm going now" Magnus confessed to his mother who nodded as she wrapped her arm around Magnus's ready to lead him back home.
"Come on let's get you home to rest" Kaleb told Magnus who nodded then Elsa stepped forward.
"If you like you can stay at the castle" Elsa offered making Kaleb and Maria shocked at the offer then Magnus spoke
"Thank you for your hospitality your Majesty but I think I rather be at my own environment until I can recover" Magnus bowed as did his parents before they started walking again. Elsa sighed wanting to take care of his because he got hurt and it was her fault for not stopping it before it got out of hand. After Magnus left everyone tried to get to the festivities and spreading Christmas cheer to everyone.
"um...Queen Elsa will you please release me" Prince Terrance finally spoke making Elsa glare at him "I truly apologize for my behaviour" Elsa undid her magic causing the Prince to fall flat on his face "I guess I deserved that"
"You deserve more" Elsa said coldly "I will ask you to leave Prince Terrance and strongly advise you not to come back if you do I will sever the ties with Tangust, do you understand?" the Prince nodded "and I said it once and I will say if for the final time I do not want to court you, if you try anything like that again, I will freeze something important to you" the blood drained from the Prince's body "understand?" Prince Terrance was too frightened to speak so instead he just nodded "now leave!" the Prince scrambled on his feet and ran away from Elsa who sighed while Tom was amused at the whole thing.
"Your Majesty?" Tom spoke breaking Elsa's train of thought "Magnus will be fine, he's strong and Magnus knows his way around the forest better than anyone" Tom reassured the Queen who sighed and nodded
"And who might you be sir?" Elsa asked Tom who bowed and said
"Captain Thomas Knight, I am in charge of the trades that Arendelle makes with other kingdoms" Elsa nodded and was a little confuse at why she has never met him "Master Kai tells me what to do" then she understood and made a mental note to give Kai a well deserved vacation and a raise for working so hard on her behalf "I have known Magnus since he was little and in truth he wasn't blind when he was born" Elsa's eyes widen in shock while Tom sighed and explained what happened "A witch came and cursed Magnus when he was a baby"
"Why?" Elsa asked curiously to Tom who sighed and looked around to make sure nobody was listening
"The Witch believed that Maria stole Kaleb from her but Kaleb just saved her and the witch believed that he did that because he loved her" Elsa nodded truly moved by Magnus's story "It's Magnus's birthday on Christmas day your Majesty, he should have recovered by that time and moving around by that time" Elsa sighed
"Arendelle will be hosting a party for the neighbouring kingdoms on Christmas day" Tom nodded
"Well if you find a time around seven till ten, we'll be at Ozzie's bar celebrating Magnus's birthday, please drop by if you want" then Tom bowed before leaving Elsa alone in her thoughts.
Magnus laid on his bed his head still ringing a little "Should have known the Prince would have fought unfairly" he said to himself as he sat the bath trying to relax. Magnus clenched his fist as if to try compress the water in his bath then the door opened causing Magnus to panic a little then noticed it was his mother "MOM!" Magnus covered himself while making Maria roll her eyes and tutted.
"Magnus I changed your diaper there is nothing that I haven't seen so don't worry" Magnus still blushed that he was naked in front of his mother who kneeled down beside the tub "how you feeling?" Maria asked as she cupped Magnus's stubble cheek which Magnus leaned into happily.
"Fine mom honest" Magnus tried to smile but Maria knew it was fake then smiled when she noticed that when the Queen had taken off his cover on his eyes, he hasn't bothered to put it back on.
"You're not wearing the cover Magnus?" Maria asked causing Magnus to panic and cover his eyes
"Sorry mom, I'll cover them when I'm finished" Maria sighed as she pried his hands to uncover his clouded emerald eyes that she barely saw
"Magnus I rather you didn't wear the bandages at all" Maria told Magnus who looked down at the side
"It makes people uncomfortable" Magnus said to his mother who sighed and said
"Magnus your eyes are just clouded, it's nothing scary sure a little surprising but people will get used to it" Maria told his son who shook his head
"I rather wear the bandages so I can at least cover my pain" Magnus submerged himself into the water for a couple of seconds before resurfacing and pushing his thick black hair "besides they are useless" Magnus said sadly then Maria got angry
"Magnus!" his son jumped at the tone of her voice "your eyes are not useless, eyes can tell a lot of things like how Queen Elsa was looking at you when you two were dancing, it was pure happiness" Magnus heart beat a little faster at what his mother said "and when you looked at her your eyes was at peace and ecstatic"
"How did you?" Magnus asked at how his mother saw them dancing while Maria smiled and laughed softly
"Sweetheart nearly everyone was watching and could tell that something special was happening between you two" Magnus blushed at what she said "I guess you were so focused on the Queen you didn't notice your father, me and Tom watching you have the time of your life, Magnus I have never seen you so happy before when you were dancing with the Queen" Maria watched her son blush ready to faint from embarrassment
"Mom, my heart felt like it was going to be burst from my chest" Magnus admitted to Maria who just smile at Magnus who smiled and his clouded green eyes were oozed with happiness while he thought about the Queen then the smile faded and his eyes went back to normal "but what Prince Terrance was right the Queen shouldn't waste her emotions and time on someone like me"
"Magnus!" Maria exclaimed but Magnus continued
"Mum its true, Queen deserves someone better than me someone who has noble blood running through their veins" Magnus told Maria "now can you please leave so I can get out of the tub" Maria sighed as she got up and left her son before he got up from the tub and changed into a new set of clothes and went to bed.
A week has passed and Christmas day and Magnus's birthday was tomorrow Elsa woke up early and sat down eating her breakfast while waiting for Anna and Kristoff to come down for breakfast. "Morning Elsa!" Anna said bubbly breaking Elsa's train of thought before she smiled at Anna and Kristoff who entered
"Good morning you too" Elsa smiled happily at them as they took a seat on the table "So ready for the Christmas party tomorrow?" Anna nodded happily
"Yes I can't wait" Anna thought for a moment "wait I thought we are inviting Magnus and his family to the Christmas party?" Elsa sighed and explained
"It's Magnus's birthday tomorrow and they have plans" Anna nodded then noticed the sadness in Elsa's eyes "So I didn't think it was fair to invite him" Elsa said told her little sister who sighed and looked down sadly "What's wrong Anna?" she asked
"I really wanted to see you and Magnus dance again" Elsa blushed a little "I mean Elsa I can tell you really like him.." Elsa was about to speak but Anna spoke over her "do not even deny it Elsa, everyone could see something was happening between you two, so honestly Elsa how do you feel about Magnus?" Anna asked seriously to Elsa who thought for moment then took a deep breath and spoke
"I feel happy and safe in his arms, I can't help to smile when he is around me, my heart beats fast when he is around and oh Anna he is absolutely wonderful" Elsa said to Anna who couldn't help smile then Elsa's smile and blush faded before she frowned "but it can never be" she watched her sister and Kristoff frown
"Why not?" Olaf asked as he entered and sat on an empty chair "Magnus gives one of the warmest hugs" the magical snowman exclaimed making the three people smile at what he said "why can't you be with him?" Olaf asked innocently making Elsa sigh and explained like how she would talk to a child
"Olaf I have to put my kingdom before my happiness" Olaf frowned a little so did Anna and Kristoff "besides I don't think Magnus feels anything for me" Elsa said sadly making Olaf shook his snow head
"Elsa you are wrong, Magnus fought Prince Terrance for you, he risked losing his ears just to fight for you" Olaf explained making Elsa eyes widen in shock at what he said "besides I can tell you like him too" Elsa blushed which made Olaf point happily "SEE you blushed that means you like him!"
"OLAF!" Elsa giggled at Olaf's cuteness and childishness
"Can we please invite him to the Christmas party" Olaf asked but Elsa shook her head "but why?" Olaf gave Elsa the cute puppy dog eyes which made Elsa's heart melt from his cuteness but cursed it as well because when Olaf or Anna did those eyes it was hard for her to say no.
"Olaf its Magnus's birthday tomorrow and he has plans tomorrow, sorry Olaf" the little snowman sighed sadly
"Oh okay" Elsa gave Olaf a small smile then after a few seconds Olaf turned back to his cheerful self "So what is the plans tomorrow?" Elsa smiled at how quickly Olaf changed his expressions but then again the snowman was like a child.
Later that day, Elsa was in her office making sure everything was perfect for tomorrow then there was a knock on the door "come in" Elsa said then the door opened revealing Kai "oh Kai how may I help you?" she asked
"Your Majesty, Captain Thomas Knight wants to speak to you, your Majesty" Kai stepped to the side revealing Tom wearing a white poet shirt with dark blue best and black trousers that was tucked into tall dark brown leather boots. He held his pirate hat by his side as he entered and bowed at the Queen while Kai left them to speak.
"What can I do for you Captain?" Elsa asked as she looked at Tom who took a deep breath and spoke
"I wanted to inform you that Magnus is recovered" Tom noticed that Elsa's eyes lit up with happiness at his news "and tomorrow Magnus isn't really looking forward for his 26th he says he feels a little old" Elsa giggled making Tom laugh as well "but I still don't know what to give him" Elsa thought for a moment "I was thinking a watch so he could tell the time but how he is able to read the time"
"I think I have an idea" Elsa said as she got up and walked over to a cabinet that belonged to Elsa's father "now where is it?" she asked herself while Tom watched her a little curious at what the Queen was looking for then after a few seconds Elsa said "found it!" she picked up a small wooden box before handing it over to Tom who opened it and inside nestled was a Braille Watch it had a crystal cover that is could be flipped open when time needs to be read. The numbers had Braille so it tells the person what time it was by touching the dial and feeling the bumps "you can give this to Magnus"
"No your Majesty, I couldn't" he lightly pushed the box towards Elsa "I can just get something else for Magnus, this looks expensive" Elsa pushed the present back to Tom
"No please give it to him from me" Tom shook his head as he put the wooden box in his pocket then the door opened
"You Majesty you have a council meeting starting in an hour" Kai told Elsa who sighed and nodded before turning to Tom
"If excuse me, Master Tom but I need to go these council meetings need to be dealt with" Tom nodded and bowed as Elsa exited when she was fully gone. Tom pulled out the present out of his pocket and put it back on the Queen's desk and wrote a little note on it before leaving with a smile on her face.
After two hours Elsa was finally free from all her Queenly duties so she was allowed to relax for the rest of the night. Elsa left her book that she was reading in her spare time in her office so went back to her office then was shocked to see Tom put back the wooden box with a note next to it. She read it
Your Majesty I couldn't have accepted a present like that to give to Magnus besides I rather you give it to him than me. If you can make it tomorrow, Magnus would not stop smiling and would declare it one of his best birthday ever. I have a feeling you want to go to see him.
Captain Tom
Elsa crumpled the paper in her hands as she shook her head "I want to go honest but I have to put my kingdom first than my happiness" she sighed as she looked at the mountain where Magnus lived wondering what he was doing now.
"Magnus?" Maria called out to his son who turned his head towards the sound of her voice "I'm just going to collect firewood okay?" Magnus stood up and shook his head
"Mum it's getting late I think, at least let me come with you" Maria sighed as she looked outside the window to see the sun started to set and the sky was a pinkish colour
"Alright come on" Magnus got up and strapped his knife on a holster that was tied on his right thigh making Maria a little worried "Magnus I don't think that we need that, we'll just be going to get firewood" Magnus shook his head and replied
"No what if wolves or someone attacks, better safe than sorry mom" Maria rolled her eyes and clicked her tongue "come on lets go"
As they were walking through the forest, Magnus and Maria carried lots of firewood so they have lots to use for the winter. Magnus sniffed the air and smelt something weird that made him stop making Maria stop as well "what is it?" Maria asked his son who put his a finger to his lips to signal her to be quiet, Magnus dropped his firewood on the floor and listened carefully as he pulled out his knife and got in front of his mother ready to protect her. Magnus sniffed the air again and smelt blood and fire.
"Come on out!" Magnus ordered then heard a sinister laugh which made him shiver in fear but made sure he didn't show it. He heard delicate footsteps that crunched the snow she walked on "who are you?!" Magnus shouted but Maria's eyes widen in fear and started shaking
"My, my how you have grown Magnus" a woman voice spoke as Magnus listened carefully to the person's heartbeat carefully to make sure, the person didn't surprise him
"How do you know my name?!" Magnus asked as he felt his mother shaking at the figure while it laughed darkly
"Why don't you ask that whore of a mother of yours" Magnus frowned at what the woman called his mother
"I warn you not to insult my mother!" the woman laughed at what he said then turned to Maria
"Tell him Maria who I am" Eris ordered Maria who turned her son before she took a deep breath and explain to Magnus who was still confuse "tell him that you're the reason he is blind" Magnus was turning his head to his mother and the woman even more confuse
"Mom?" Magnus said weakly
"Eris cursed you when you were a baby, she cast a spell on you that turned you blind" Maria spoke painfully as she told the truth to his son
"But you told me that I was born with it" Magnus replied, hurt that his parents lied to him. Maria sighed while Eris was grinning wickedly
"It was to protect you Magnus, honest" Maria watch Magnus lower his head
"Why lie?" Magnus whispered making his mother heart break as tears threatened fall
"Magnus-" Eris spoke over Maria
"We'll looks like Magnus has fallen in love with the Queen" Magnus head quickly turned to Eris as he clenched his fist in anger
"DO NOT HURT HER!" Magnus shouted as Eris cackled
"I would never, she never done anything to me so I won't" Magnus sighed in relief but it didn't last long when Eris continued speaking "I will make you and your parents forget seeing me and forget your feelings for the Queen" Magnus shook his head as Eris snapped her long thin fingers before Maria and Magnus blacked out and was transported back to their house.
The next day Magnus woke up with a headache not remembering what happened then his mother and father burst in with their heartbeats beating faster than normal "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" they shouted happily while Magnus winced a little but smiled anyways.
In Arendelle castle, Elsa and Anna was making sure everything was ready for the party where different Kingdoms would come and strengthen ties with each other or some to find suitors which lots of Elsa's advisors were heavily hinted that she needed to get married so they have an heir "Elsa if you want you can just go to Magnus's party, Kristoff and I will entertain everyone" Anna offered but Elsa shook her head and replied
"No the Queen needs to be here" Elsa sighed heavily before getting back to making sure everything was perfect for the royal visitors that would be coming.
The party was in full swing, Elsa kept looking at the clock seeing it was nine thirty meaning that Magnus's birthday would be finishing in thirty minutes but she knew she couldn't leave due to it was her duty to entertain the guess. Anna walked over to Elsa "go" she whispered making Elsa's eyes widen
"no Anna I can't" Anna shook her head and lightly push her towards the door "Anna!" she hissed in anger.
"Go I can take care of the royals for thirty minutes" Elsa sighed in defeat and smile before giving Anna a hug "now go!" Elsa giggled before sneakily running to her office to grab her present for Magnus and rode her horse to the city to find Ozzie's bar, when she finally found it, she got off her horse and smiled when she heard people cheering happily when she opened the door, she dropped the present on the floor as her eyes were tearing at the sight in front of her.
Magnus was passionately kissing a beautiful woman who had long wavy brown hair whose eyes were closed enjoying Magnus's soft lips. Elsa's heart shattered in tiny pieces as tears threatened to fall from her face then she looked around as people cheered and laughs as the two kept kissing lovingly. When they parted Magnus smiled at the woman who opened her chocolate brown eyes "I love you" Magnus whispered but Elsa could read lips and heart felt like it has been took out and stomped on multiple times. The girl in Magnus's arms looked like she was on cloud nine then everyone turned towards the door and gasped out
"Your Majesty" everyone bowed and Magnus just kept looking towards the Queen who quickly pushed back her tears before they fell then turned serious "how may we help you?"Then everyone but Magnus noticed the Queen's tears "is everything alright your majesty?" one of the people asked worriedly then Elsa recomposed herself and nodded
"Sorry to interrupt the celebration, I was taking a stroll to clear my head please excuse me" with that Elsa left. Leaving everyone and Magnus looked confuse
"Why would the Queen come here?" he asked himself "I mean doesn't she have a celebration tonight?" Magnus excused himself and followed the Queen using his ears. Tom had just arrived and saw the Queen's present broke on the floor so he bent down and picked up the shattered Braille watch on floor before looking around to see Magnus missing while everyone didn't dare to speak.
"What happened?" Tom asked
Magnus finally found the Queen but suddenly gave him a painful slap on the cheek "Your Majesty why did hit me?" Magnus nursing his stinging cheek while Elsa was crying
"I just thought that we shared something special Magnus but it appears you don't even care about me, it looks like Mr Powells is right, you do attract lots of women and your just a womanizer, I was a fool to believe that I was falling for you!" Elsa shouted while Magnus was confused
"What womanizer? I would never, your Majesty my parents taught me better!" Magnus shouted not caring if he was shouting at a royal who could sent him to the dungeons but right now he didn't care now but he was really confused "since when did you fall for me?" Magnus asked
"When you and I danced at the festival I knew I was falling for you!" Elsa shouted as she was about to hit Magnus again but he caught her hand, Magnus noticed that his heart beat fast and so did Elsa when they felt electricity running through their bodies but he ignored it and spoke
"I think you have mistake me from someone else you danced with, your Majesty because I only danced with Maya that night" Magnus told Elsa thought her heart was too hurt to beat
"please just stop it, you're hurting me Magnus" she whipped her hand out of Magnus's grasp "just leave me alone" then Elsa got back on her horse and left. Magnus smelt the air and smelt fresh winter snow with a hint of chocolate that made his heart skip a beat. He heard stomping footsteps and didn't prepared himself with a painful punch in the face causing him to fall on the ground.
"What is it with people hitting me today?" Magnus said to himself before listening and frowned "what the hell was that for TOM!" he shouted to Tom with a angry frown on his face
"What the hell is the matter with you?!" Tom asked angrily to Magnus who got up and dusted himself as his ears ringed from Tom's loud voice "kissing someone else, I thought you love Queen Elsa?" Magnus looked shocked
"What? No I'm in love with Maya!" Magnus replied while Tom was confused
"Who's Maya?" Tom asked
"The girl I love" Magnus replied making Tom eyes widen in shock.
"WHAT? The hell is the matter with you!" Tom replied angrily
When Elsa got back in the castle, she went straight to her room and cried in her bed then it was around ten there was knock on the door "Elsa?" Anna said in a sing song voice as she opened the door "how was the par-" she noticed her sister crying her eyes out "what happened?" Anna asked then Elsa wiped her eyes and told her what happened.
"he did WHAT!" Anna shouted "that's it I'm going to give him a piece of my mind!" Anna got up ready to stomp over to the mountain where Magnus lived to beat some sense into him but Elsa grabbed Anna's hand to prevent her from leaving
"No Anna do not! Magnus made it clear that he doesn't have any feelings for me, I guess I was wrong for thinking someone would ever like a monster like me" she whispered the last three words making Anna's heart break causing her to hug Elsa
"You are not a monster" Anna replied but Elsa didn't say anything "No I know Magnus has feelings for you, everyone can see that" Elsa shook her head
"no, everyone was cheering when Magnus kissed a girl" Elsa started crying again as her mind replayed Magnus kissing a beautiful girl and telling her I love you which made her heart felt like it's been ripped to shreds. Anna has never seen Elsa so broken before which made her almost cry, Elsa was one of the strongest person she knows and seeing her like this made her sad. Tomorrow she would make Kristoff take her up the mountain to Magnus's house to interrogate him "Anna could you please leave me, I have to work tomorrow" Elsa wiped her eyes before Anna sighed and nodded
"Good night Elsa" she closed the door behind her as Elsa laid in bed as a fresh tears came down again
"Goodnight" she whispered as she cried even more "I hate you Magnus"
