Chapter 25: Elsa meets the Guardians
Elsa shook Anna in hopes to wake her up. The flier had eventually passed out and she was getting paler. It had been an hour which marked three hours since she had been shot. Elsa didn't know how much longer Anna was going to last.
"Anna please wake up." Elsa shook the girl again and she mumbled something. Elsa couldn't catch it. "Wake up and stay awake this time." Eyelids opened and cloudy teal eyes looked over at Elsa.
"I.. I'm awake." Anna's eyes fluttered and started to close again. "I'm so tired Elsa. I can hear the whispering again."
Anna seemed to perk up when she talked about the whispers. Elsa jumped on that conversation. "Tell me about them. What do they say?"
Anna leaned on Elsa, resting her head on her shoulder. "They call for help. Like a.. prayer.. They feel warm sometimes.. Like the sun on my back… and it hurts."
"What do they want help for?" Elsa asked, wiggling her shoulder to keep Anna moving and hopefully awake.
Anna was quiet a moment, and she took a shuddering breath. "Save us. I believe in you.. Come back. Why don't you answer me? They reach for me sometimes.. In my dreams. They pull.. and it hurts. Sometimes I try to follow one pair of hands.."
Elsa had to shake Anna again to get her to speak more. "But the dark hands yank me back. Like they don't want me surrounded by the others. Sometimes pale hands reach and grab me first. But then the dark hands claw at my back. Telling me to return. To listen. They remind me of your hands, the pale ones."
Elsa frowned and wrapped her arm around Anna. "If they reach for you again. Look for my hands. Think of me. Don't let the dark ones get you. I'll save you."
"But then the dark hands yell, shout, screech, and pull harder. I watched those hands tear the pale arms apart once. I don't want you in danger." Anna weakly grabbed for Elsa's shoulder, trying to lift her head to look up at Elsa.
Elsa kissed Anna on top of her forehead, smiling down at her now. "I will be your hero Anna. I will save the both of us. I won't let it get you. How long have you been dreaming that?"
"Not very long. Recent. Sometimes I have a hard time remembering. Other times I just remember falling. Sometimes I hear Voice." Anna smiled so suddenly Elsa had to blink to believe the happy smile on her face. "Those are.. my favorite dreams."
"Voice. Who is Voice?"
"I don't know.. I can't tell you. He is friend. Not enemy." Anna sighed and she slumped against Elsa. Elsa heard people talking in the distance and she carefully lay Anna on the ground. That had to be the people Kristoff sent.
Elsa picked her way through the lush forest. "Hello! Are you the ones sent to help us?" Elsa heard the sound of thumping and it grew closer. Three people on horseback broke through the heavy bushes.
"Are you Miss Roe? Where is Anna?" A woman on a grey horse asked looking around. Either for Anna or enemies. The two women and one guy all wore similar black zip up jackets. Elsa wondered if they matched on purpose. They all had their hoods up and you couldn't see their eyes.
"Yes. I'm Miss Roe. Anna is this way." Elsa turned back the way she came leading the three on. Elsa found Anna standing, leaning against the tree. She looked frantic, and the fear in Anna's eyes left the moment she spotted Elsa.
"Anna! You shouldn't be trying to stand." Elsa watched as Anna tried to take a step towards them, but the flier ended up hitting the dirt. The girl riding a palomino horse tossed her leg over the horse and slid to the ground.
The girl helped Elsa lift Anna off the ground. "She's lost a lot of blood. We need to get her to our camp quickly. We have some blood transfer items."
Elsa had one of Anna's arms over her shoulder, the other arm rested over the other girls shoulder. Elsa gave her a strange look. "You have blood transfer equipment out here? What ever for?"
The girl gave Elsa a humorless laugh. "Carter and his boys are getting a little more trigger happy. We need it out here."
"Why would he want to shoot you guys?" The girl didn't have to answer. They had reached the horse and Elsa helped the girl toss Anna over the horse's back. Draping her horizontally on the horse. Strange. No saddle. Elsa watched the girl get on the horse and she gasped.
On the back of her sweater was the tell tale golden wings. "You.. You are Guardians!" Elsa backed up, eyes wide. She tripped over a root and she crawled back. These people were dangerous! And crazy! The girl on the grey horse hopped off waving the other two away.
"You two get Anna back to camp quickly. I'll deal with her." A grunt in agreement and the other two turned their horses around. They clicked their tongues, giving their horse a kick to get them going.
"Stay away from me!" Elsa couldn't move anymore, her back pressed firmly against a tree.
The woman pulled her hood back and she had long blond hair. It was slightly tamed by a black head band, but it didn't stop the bangs from falling into her girl looked into Elsa's blue eyes with her own. "For the love of Watcher.. Look. I'm a human too. No need to freak out. I'll tell you my name. And you tell me yours. I don't care that I know it already. Got it?"
Elsa was strangely calmed once she realized the woman was actually a young girl. She would probably be pretty if she would smile. Right now she looked bored and annoyed.
The girl held her hand out for Elsa to shake and to help her up. "I'm Eilonwy S. Cauldron. Yeah I am a Guardian but i'm sure I do more good than you. So lets get along right? I am technically your way out."
Elsa took her hand and allowed herself to be helped up. The girl had to be around fourteen. She was much shorter than Elsa. The Guardian had to look up to look Elsa in the eye. "I'm Elsa Roe. Elsa Idina Roe if you want the full name." They shook hands, staring a moment. Elsa stored the small insult that the girl did more good than her for later. She was Guardian. How was she better than her?
"Alrighty then. Lets go. The faster we get to camp, the less chance we have of being shot. Or captured." Eilonwy walked over to her horse, patting it on the nose and Elsa followed at a much slower pace.
"But I am not a Guardian. Why would I get shot?" Elsa watched how Eilonwy effortlessly got the horse to kneel to the ground.
"Because you would be spotted with me. Sorry but these guys shoot first then ask questions. Man. Now I know you haven't been here long. You don't know the half of what goes on in this state. Its not as happy as your state. Now lets go Princess. Hop on."
"I'm too old to be a princess." Elsa grumbled, cautiously throwing her leg over the horse. She gripped the grey hair of the horse when Eilonwy clucked her tongue and the horse got to its feet.
"Fine then. Scoot back a little then Queen. I need to steer since I know the way." Elsa scooted back on the horse, and Eilonwy pulled herself onto the horse with ease. She had to have done it a bunch of times.
The younger girl led them in the same direction the other two ran off in. "So.. What happened for you to get shot at by Carter? I thought he was all buddy buddy with your mother?"
Elsa shook her head, shivering slightly. "No. They were trying to be 'buddy buddy'. Things didn't really work out like that." Elsa didn't think it was that good of an idea to tell them about what really what happened. She wasn't sure they would be happy with Anna killing someone.
Speaking of Anna.. Elsa felt betrayed. Anna had been friends with the Guardians all along. And information? Was she just working with her to get that information? Was their relationship just a lie? Could it even be called a relationship?
No.
Elsa stopped that train of thought before it took off completely. Anna wouldn't do that to her. At least Elsa hoped not. For now she shoved aside the hurt, and the betrayal. She would deal with this when Anna got better.
Assuming she did.
XxXxXxXx
When Elsa arrived at the camp the Guardians had already had the bullet taken out of Anna's leg. The wounded flier rested on a table on her belly, her long wings stretched out so they could be examined, and her leg had been wrapped up tightly. A woman and a flier stood beside Anna.
The flier had black hair, he seemed to be licking the extra blood on his hand off. Elsa was weirded out at first, but then she caught snippets. "I think her blood type is.. O negative." He licked his finger once more, making a smacking noise with his lips. "Yup O negative. Where do we keep the O blood types at?"
The girl beside him went towards a large cave that most of the tents surrounded. "They are in the very back inside. I'll go get them." The cave had massive wires and thick cords running into it. They connected to a generator just outside the cave.
As much as Elsa wanted to go to Anna she didn't really like needles. That was her story and she would stick to it. So instead of watching over Anna she wandered through the camp. She noticed that Eilonwy followed her from a distance. It was so strange to see the Guardians up close.
They were so far from what you would hear in the news. She knew they sometimes protested peacefully. But it never ended peacefully. She heard that they could be dangerous, and more than a few scientists were beat up. She heard that fliers sometimes went missing because of them. Sometimes even people.
She heard that they were crazy, that they were sick. Diseased. For what? Elsa herself didn't know what they stood up for. She only knew that they believed fliers came from heaven. Which was crazy. Every flier was a lab baby, specially made to a buyers order.
So why did they seem so.. normal? They gathered food, they laughed, joked, grumbled about being tired. There was even a few kids, and they too wore black jackets with gold symbols on the back. They all looked clean, maybe a few were grungy. One thing she noticed, is they all knew one another. And boy were they loud.
"Jackie! Jackie did you get the deer?" An elder woman called and Jackie, a brunette, turned from where she stood by wooden crates.
"Yes Wanda. Jack brought it over. That deer is gutted and put into the big freezer."
Or she could hear conversations that went along like this between a a group of kids..
"Okay lets play Stone killer!"
"Alright you have to be Doctor Stone this time."
"Ha get her!"
She watched the girl try and fight off the others, and they took off running through the camp, shouting. Eilonwy appeared to her right, arms behind her back. "So. Still think we are crazy, going to kill you?"
Elsa couldn't stop her smile. "No.. You guys seem rather ordinary. Doesn't mean I think you guys are okay quite yet. I've just had enough for one day. I can freak out later."
Eilonwy nodded, and she gestured for Elsa to follow. "Come on. Since you're here, you can help us out."
"Um no thanks. I would rather not associate with you guys anymore than I need to." Elsa held her hands up and Eilonwy raised a blonde brow.
"Gee see here's the thing… I wasn't asking. I was telling. Didn't your mother ever tell you that nothing was free? We can help Anna because she is one of us. You are not." Elsa flinched, she actually heard that just today. How ironic.
"What do I have to do?" Elsa crossed her arms and sighed. Eilonwy smirked, leading Elsa back towards the large cave opening.
"Well since you were so kind as to volunteer. We are going to process the meat." Eilonwy's smirk turned into a grin when Elsa looked confused.
"And.. what exactly does that involve?"
"Oh my fine Queen.. You will see."
XxXxXxX
Elsa blanched when she was met with Jackie, the brunette with matching brown eyes. "You need a hair tie for your hair? Trust me you really should put it up." Jackie tied her hair up in a high ponytail.
"I need to get out of this room. Is this what happens to every deer?" Elsa tried to back up a few steps but Eilonwy pushed her forward. Elsa stumbled into Jackie. Jackie who had bloody arms and blood all over her apron.
"Have fun Queen. I don't want to see you until dinner time. Which should be deer tonight. Show her how to do it all Jackie." Elsa pulled away from Jackie, looking at her now bloody button up. Eilonwy leaned in to whisper to Jackie. "Oh. Don't be afraid to get her dirty and work her hard. She has to earn her way in."
"I don't want to be apart of the Guardians. I'll do this so I can go home." Elsa pulled her sleeves back, in a last attempt to keep the blood off. "Do we at least get gloves?" Jackie started laughing so hard that she had to wipe away a tear. Of course then she had a blood smear under her eye.
"Boy you really are a Queen." Jackie said once she calmed down. "Look this is actually easy once you learn it. Here's an apron and tie for your hair. Once you get that done, get a knife. We have a deer to skin. Then we have to quarter it and debone it. Come on a kid can do it."
Elsa looked at the upside down hanging deer, its guts already gone. She groaned, "Is that supposed to make me feel better? Because that didn't help."
"Well I hoped it would. But its true a child can do this." Elsa watched Jackie start to cut the skin around the leg and she gasped. It sounded so gross! She wanted to run away yelling ew ew ew.
Jackie pulled some of the skin away from the leg, revealing the muscles hidden underneath. The girl waved her arms around. "See its easy. Cut, grab, pull. Cut some more." Blood flew off her hands and straight into Elsa's still open mouth.
Elsa screamed.
XxXxXxX
Elsa left the cave and she shuddered. Her arms were all sticky now. Why did dead deers have so much blood? And why did she have to do that for three and a half hours? "I think Anna is awake."
Elsa started and she frowned. "For how long?"
"Oh a while. She isn't done getting blood I heard. But at least she is awake. Maybe you can bring her a plate of food. Should be done cooking by now. I'll take you to the river to wash off that blood."
"Wait. I thought the deer we were cutting up was for dinner?" Elsa watched as a slow smile split Jackies' face.
"Well those ones are put away for tomorrow. In the giant fridges.. That we totally didn't steal. We already had deer from yesterday. Come on Queen lets get you washed off and maybe a new shirt."
XxXxX
A new shirt meant the ugly pale yellow shirt that all the Guardians wore. Jackie tried to get Elsa to wear a jacket since the sun was already setting, but she refused to wear that blasted jacket.
Elsa then found herself squished around a large campfire between Jackie, and Eilonwy. Anna was sitting next to a flier and she chatted with him, she still had a blood bag, but they allowed her to eat with everyone. Oddly enough they were a group of people apart.
Fine by Elsa. She didn't want to ask Anna about the Guardian's quite yet. She was attempting to eat the cooked deer and potatoes and carrots. After having gut the other deer, she was a little on edge about eating it. That and she didn't really have soap for her hands when she washed them off in the river.
Anna didn't seem to mind. She tore right into her dinner like a starving animal. After a few minutes of silence, the only sound the crack and pop of the fire and a burp from a stray child, a young boy stood up.
"Story time! I want a story! Wanda tell us The Story!" Wanda chuckled and ruffled the boys hair.
She put her metal platter down and she tapped her chin in thought. "Oh I suppose I could tell that one. I'm sure our two guests would enjoy a story." Elsa tilted her head, wondering what this story was.
"Long ago there was thirteen beautiful angels. They lived up in the sky." Wanda lifted her arms to the sky, pointing at the stars above. "Up in Heaven with God. They all lived in sweet harmony and they watched over the people on earth. One day one of the angels grew jealous. He hated the humans." She paused for a moment, making sure Anna and Elsa were keeping up.
Elsa looked interested, and Anna looked pale. Probably due to blood loss. "He hated them for how weak they were. He saw them as a species to rule and give order. This angel argued with God over it and God cast him out. The angel fell and he was known as Chaos." Anna shook her head, no. He was Fallen One.
"Chaos wandered the earth bringing what his name said. He brought chaos and fear to the people. Making them his slaves. He was very cruel and the people cried for mercy. The earth was stuck in eternal darkness and rain. The people prayed for someone to save them!" Wanda smiled at the wonder on the children's face. They always loved this story.
"God heard their prayers and he answered them. He sent down an angel to save them. This angel was called Watcher. Because he was sent to watch over us. Watcher was plenty stronger than Chaos and he challenged him to hand to hand combat." The elder woman took a sip of her water.
"Chaos agreed but the cheater he was he brought his own army. An army of false angels. Humans turned into an angel. Watcher had seen this coming and brought his own army. The people itself. They fought long and hard. Eventually Watcher executed his own brother. But before Chaos fell to Watchers blade he shouted to the sky."
Wanda deepened her voice. "I will rise again! Earth and its humans will be mine! All mine!" The kids boo'd at that. "Watcher rid the world of false angels and he stayed on earth. People prayed to him all the time. They would forever be in his debt for getting rid of the evil. Some say Watcher stayed behind to make sure Chaos would never ever rise."
The others clapped and Anna jumped to her feet, pointing a finger at Wanda. "Lies! That is not how the story goes. You have it wrong. Fal- er.. Chaos was cheated by .. God. He was cast out wrongfully. He only wanted order.." The flier next to Anna got up and patted her arm.
"Anna I think its time you went to bed. You're still loopy I can tell. Lets go. Come on." The flier tried to lead Anna away but she shook her head, trying in vain to dig her heels in.
"No Jason. That old lady has it all wrong." Jason shook his head, smiling to himself.
"Come on Anna. Before you do something even more crazy." Elsa watched as Anna was practically dragged away by Jason.
"I better go check on her." Elsa passed her plate to Jackie who ate the leftovers off it with a shrug.
XxXxXxX
Jason was just leaving the small tent where Anna was to sleep for the night when Elsa walked up. "Is she okay?"
Jason shrugged, stuffing his hands into his pocket. "I think so. Not sure. She's lucky she has the excuse of drugs and blood loss. Otherwise there would have been hell to pay for such rudeness to Wanda."
Elsa gave him an apologetic look and she bent over to head into the tent. Anna was on her belly, and she growled. "Jason I swear.. Go away. I know what I said was rude. Alright?"
"It's me." Elsa was kneeling just at the end of Anna's feet.
Anna jerked and rolled over leaning back on her elbows. The movement had jostled her leg and she hissed. "Oh.. um.." Anna bit her lip, pushing an invisible strand of hair behind her ear in a nervous habit.
"How long until you would have told me that you were a Guardian Anna?" Elsa crossed her arms and Anna kept her eyes on her lap.
"Well.. You see.. I wouldn't tell you until after."
"After what Anna?"
"After we got rid of Doctor Stone. After we got people to see that i'm not an animal. I am a person too." Anna heard Elsa laugh in disbelief.
"Anna like it or not, but you are an animal! You are a human in disguise. I don't like how your kind is treated either but that-"
"Did you just say.. my kind?" Anna was looking at Elsa now, eyes wide and she looked so hurt. Elsa refused to let that get to her.
"Yes. Why would you join these guys in the first place? Wait.. How long have you been with them?" Elsa watched a flurry of emotions change Anna's face. Hurt, anger, then guilt.
"Remember when I disappeared for two months? That's when." Anna let her body fall back onto the blankets beneath her.
"So you were lying to me when you said you weren't apart of the Guardians when you left for a week? So when Kristoff said you found good information you were just spying on me? Was everything a lie to make me comfortable around you? So I wouldn't see you snooping?" Elsa's voice broke and Anna sat up quickly, shaking her head.
"Never! I swear." Elsa didn't look like she was believing Anna's weak plea. Elsa' started to stand to leave. Anna grabbed her wrist tightly, but gently, yanking Elsa down on top of her. She wrapped her arms around Elsa locking them together.
Elsa tried to push away and when that failed she punched at Anna's chest. "Let go you lying.. back stabbing dog."
"No I won't let go. Do you know why I joined the Guardians?" Elsa didn't answer, she still attempted to wiggle free from Anna. Anna wrapped her leg over Elsa's to keep her still. "I joined them for you. For us I guess you could say."
That stopped Elsa's struggles and she narrowed her icy blue eyes on Anna's teal. "For me? How would joining their senseless crusade be for me?"
Anna tried to smile at Elsa. "Because.. the Guardian's don't care for human flier relationships. They treat me like an equal and not a pet. They ask for my name and don't reach for my arm to scan it. If I could help them change the way people saw fliers.. then.. then I could be with you. No more hiding."
Anna continued hoping Elsa would understand. "I do this for you. I have problems with the Guardians too. They make me mad sometimes too. They actually kidnapped me into their gang. But they are fighting for a better life for all fliers. I fight so one day if I was ever so lucky I could marry you. Kiss you in public. To smile and be able to say you're mine."
Elsa closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "You really have been doing this for me?"
"Yes. I joined them to make myself stronger for you. To change the world for you and maybe a little for myself. I.. I turned in a fellow Guardian to stay with you. I killed Samson for you. I learned how to read for you. So I could be a little smarter. And to help with reading for the Guardians."
Anna felt Elsa's tense body slowly relax under her grip. Perfect. "I.. I just wish you would have said something sooner. I asked you outright. You could have told me the truth then Anna."
"No.. I couldn't have Elsa. To be honest the Guardians seem sketchy to me as well. I feel like they hide something. But if I have to be honest. They are looking for me."
Elsa didn't look like she followed. "Looking for you? Why?"
Anna shrugged, "They are looking for A117. Which is me. I don't understand why. They say I am the key. Key to the success. I haven't told them because they would take me away from you. But I also don't really know what is in store for me. That's why my wardrobe consists of long sleeves and sweaters. All I know is everyone I meet says im special. It only makes me mad."
"I told you were special." Elsa mumbled, her chin resting on Anna's chest.
"Yeah but I like hearing you say it to me." Anna murmured quietly. And I love it when Voice tells me that too. Why is it only when they do it I love it?
Elsa took advantage of Anna loosening her grip, sitting up and resting her hands on Anna's ribs. "Anna I want to cuddle." Anna started to nod closing her eyes with a yawn. Weren't they cuddling already?
"But I want to do it naked." Anna sat up so quickly Elsa almost fell off her lap.
"Whoa no. No. I don't think you need that right now. See there is a thing called time and place." Elsa glanced away and she started wringing her hands. Ah damn. Anna said the wrong thing.
"I need it. I can still remember Samson's hands." Elsa shivered, and she looked Anna in the eye again. "I just want skin on skin contact. I don't want to remember him. I don't know how to explain it. But.. I just feel so.. dirty. Like no amount of soap would ever get rid of that feeling." Elsa looked so nervous, and a little scared. Scared of what she was remembering, or nervous that Anna wouldn't take her seriously.
Anna nodded, running her hands up Elsa's back. "Since you explained why… I think we can do that. I just don't want you uncomfortable. I mean.. you know.. Samson and I do have the same anatomy. I don't want you to have a flashback or something." Anna was worried Elsa was just pushing herself. But if this was what she wanted and it would hopefully make her feel even just a little better, then so be it.
It took longer than Anna thought to take all their clothes off. Elsa insisted Anna remove hers for her. Anna had pulled Elsa's shirt off and then she waited nine minutes before Elsa was comfortable enough to remove the next article of clothing.
But Anna didn't mind. She wasn't hurt at all when Elsa panicked a little when she started to pull down the blue panties. She simply dropped her hands to the ground and let Elsa take a calming breath. Once that was removed, Elsa removed Anna's clothing.
Though it didn't take as long, the only time Elsa really hesitated is when she got to Anna's grey boxers. After ten minutes of waiting Anna smiled a little.
"You don't have to do this. Maybe its too soon for you.. I'm totally fine w-"
Elsa vehemently shook her head."No. I don't want to let this grow into an irrational fear or anything. To me that's him winning. I refuse to let that happen. Plus its you.. My Anna. I shouldn't feel so afraid." With that she pulled Anna's boxers off with a little help and she pushed Anna back against the blankets.
"D-don't move. Just lay there." Elsa was hovering above Anna on her knees. Anna lay there smiling up at Elsa.
"Take your time. But if I fall asleep don't be mad at me please." Anna ended her sentence on a yawn, but she still kept smiling at Elsa.
Elsa closed her eyes, and draped herself across Anna. Elsa relaxed after a moment and Anna sighed. Another five minutes rolled by.
"Did it help?" Anna asked, and Elsa lifted her head from Anna's shoulder, smiling.
"A little. Rub my back?"
"Anytime Elsa."
XxXxXx
Doctor Stone threw the chair across the room inside his office. He shouted and flipped his desk over. "God damn it! The deal isn't going to go through at this rate! I need you to fix this!"
Doctor Stone turned to Mrs. Roe who looked like she was waiting for a child's tantrum to be over. "Of course I will fix things. You forget Stone that this company belongs to me. Me! So shut your trap and let me think. I'm already building my case against Carter and his damn son." Mrs. Roe patted Doctor Stone on the chest and he brushed her hand away.
"If things go right I think I will have everything I need to milk this entire situation. I heard you had a problem in the flier department that was shut down. Tell me about that." Mrs. Roe watched Doctor Stone as he shuffled through a few papers on the ground.
He lifted one up, "We had to shut down due to lack of profits and any results. We had one escape. Don't worry I will find him though. I have been making progress with Creature though. The Dream program works. That is why I need this deal to go through. Carter has all the resources we need."
Mrs. Roe glanced over the paper that Doctor Stone handed her. "So you really got it to listen hmm? There isn't anything that could go wrong?"
"If you like I could show you some footage. She excels at the program and can control it for up to two hours so far. Give it more time and it would be effortless." Doctor Stone went to his tipped over desk to grab a disk from the drawer.
He put it into the dvd player and he turned on the tv. "Alright. This footage is her first try. Its hardly anything." The scratchy video of the Creature, stuck on its knees, chains holding its arms up appeared. The footage had Lovdahl in the wheelchair and it showed her weak struggle to control it. The camera zoomed in on the green eyes that opened at Lovdahl's command.
The video went to static and it changed. "This footage is a week old and she has made amazing progress." Lovdahl was standing and she looked much healthier. Lovdahl held her hand out and she put her hand on its covered head. The sound screeched and Mrs. Roe heard a loud rumble. "Look at how she hardly has to try to focus her energy in controlling it. It's damn near impossible, but she does it!" Creature fluffed its feathers and even rose to its feet for Lovdahl when commanded.
Mrs. Roe turned the tv off. "I have seen enough. I can see the Dream program works. There are no flaws?"
"There is only one strange thing. Lovdahl says that Creature is building power. As if leaching off something. It also rumbles and makes noises, more often when its alone. Lovdahl mentioned that it speaks. Speaks to another far away. But it refuses to give anything about it no matter how hard Lovdahl tries." Doctor Stone didn't look very happy, but he shrugged nonetheless.
Mrs. Roe waved that off. "If it doesn't effect anything then proceed as planned. Things will go according to plan. But it will be all for naught if we don't get Elsa back. With her we will have Carter Military Co. eating out of our palms."
Doctor Stone and Mrs. Roe had a good laugh over that mental image, and then she ordered him to clean up the office.
"Come home soon Elsa. Come home soon. Hopefully you have what I need by then."
AN: Few its three thirty and I have to be somewhere by nine. No complaints here though.
Elsa's trying to heal, Anna is healing already from her gunshot. Doctor Stone and Mrs. Roe converse and plan. Lovdahl gets more pro at her skill.
I will SEE you in the NEXT CHAPTER. Bye!
