AUTHORS NOTE

Sorry this took so long, had an insane case of writers block with this chapter so it's not really as good as I would have liked it to be. Thank you all for the lovely reviews, follows and favourites though! It really does mean the world to me, I probably wouldn't of taken this story this far if people weren't interested xD So have some Angry Elsa, not so pleasant Loki and Rapunzel and Eugene in a slightly longer chapter! Enjoy *^,^*

The Ballroom had never seen so much festivity before in its long life, joy and happiness could be seen from every angle. People were dancing, socialising, and wandering off to other parts of the castle. But there were two people who seemed to be stuck in a black and white world in this room of colour and light. The newlyweds were up on the platform where the royals made their entrance and speeches.

Elsa tried her best to zone out of the awkward situation at hand, even if the subject of said situation was standing no more than ten inches away from her. Instead she focused on her little sister and her brother-in-law dancing, she couldn't help but smile at the sight. Anna gracefully twirling and stepping in time to the music, eyes completely focused on Kristoff. Kristoff on the other hand had his gaze set on his feet, desperately trying to avoid stepping on Anna and ruining her dance. The times that Kristoff did meet eyes with the princess were magic to Elsa. They truly were meant to be, there was never a moment that passed when they didn't take each other's breath away. For years part of Elsa wished to have someone to cherish every moment with, someone to be by her side through the thick and thin and feel an ache in her heart when they weren't with her.

Supposedly now she had that, a companion. But what she truly wanted was a lover, even if she knew she didn't need a man to be happy.

"I take your silence as a sign that you're not going to talk to me," Elsa was dragged away from her thoughts as Loki caught her by surprise, she was almost certain that the last thing he wanted to do was get to know her. She had taken him away from his life to live amongst mortals. "Your Majesty." She couldn't help but notice the slight irony in his voice and caught sight of a mischievous smile and twinkle in his eyes. As much as Elsa detested her current situation she couldn't deny that Loki was handsome.

"Sorry, I was just…thinking." And she didn't stop, part of her was happy that Loki appeared to want to talk to her but at the same time she wondered why. For a second she wondered if he felt like he had the same obligation as her to get along. They did have to spend the rest of time referring to each other as husband and wife after all. "I'm sorry that I dragged you into this," Elsa apologised, even if there wasn't a need for it the scenario was because of her.

Loki cast his new wife a sympathetic glance, Odin had told him very little about the situation at hand. The only facts that were mentioned were that a Midgardian queen was willing to perform a soul connection, which on Asgard was reserved only for married couples, in exchange for her sister's life. Obviously as heir Thor couldn't go since the queen would have to continue ruling her kingdom so Odin gave him the honour of going down to Midgard to marry a woman he had never met. He would admit that at first sight of Elsa he was enchanted by her beauty, if they had settled on Asgard he probably would have enjoyed spoiling such a celestial creature for the rest of her life. Knowing full well that there were very few left who still believed in the gods of Asgard almost made him feel sorry for the girl, it was rare that Odin gave aid to a non-believer and Elsa must have thought she was driving herself into insanity by asking what she originally thought to be mythical beings.

"You were desperate, I understand. I've had to make a few deals to get my brother Thor out of a few scrapes." When he said deals he meant handing over a few pieces of gold so whoever was causing Thor to be suspended by the ankles could let him go. Loki could of probably bought a palace with all that gold.

Elsa smiled up at him, it was good to start a normal conversation. She was sure that she would never love Loki as a husband but at least they could create some sort of bond together.

"It sounds like you and Thor are very close, the legends that my father used to tell me don't tell the whole story." The relationship between the two god's have always had been unclear in literature, so Elsa naturally became fascinated when Loki said they were in fact brothers.

"Well, many of your tales are hardly accurate" Loki replied. "As far as I know I have never given birth to… I believe it was an eight legged horse?" The couple both laughed at the thought of an eight-legged horse running around, both seemed to picture it tripping over itself comically.

"We apparently have a reputation of over exaggerating things amongst your people."

"I would more call that completely making things up." Loki smiled as he turned his head towards the dance floor where he spotted a girl who was the spitting image of Elsa, only with copper coloured hair and dotted with freckles. 'So this must be Anna' he pondered as she twirled in time with the music. "Your reputation precedes you though, my father told me that your sister was at deaths door but she seems to be fine." He couldn't help but notice that Elsa's smiled seemed to vanish with his observation.

"Actually she was," The memory of night this arrangement was made flickered through her mind as she looked to her sister. "It was only when I spoke to Odin that she started to get better." Her voice was heavy with remorse for what she did to Anna, and she couldn't even make it right. She had to get someone to understand her so they could do it for her. Elsa regretted each day that she lost control and hurt Anna, at least now it was over and they could both live their lives. What Loki said next automatically pulled her back into reality.

"Sorry to know that you were that desperate to let your sister live." Elsa couldn't help but be confused by his statement, surely anyone would do anything they could if someone they loved were dying. To Elsa at least, it was the obvious thing to do.

"What do you mean? Of course I was desperate, anyone would be." For the first time she noticed a coldness to Loki that only seemed to be appearing now. His eyes became less kind as he looked away from her and back to the dancers in front of him.

"Desperation is a very dangerous thing, your majesty. It makes someone with a fully able mind to commit what can be considered questionable acts." Elsa knew all too well that it was true. Desperation is why she hid away from the world for so long, she wanted to keep Anna safe and didn't know what to do. But being desperate enough to do crazy things did sometimes have its positive effects.

"Well, I suppose it's a good thing that I became that desperate." The Queen stated, almost with the sense that she knew she was right. "Anna's fine now, and your father guaranteed me that she'll live. This has already happened three times and I did everything I could to make sure it never happens again."

"Have you considered that your princess is maybe not destined to live?" Nothing could have prepared Elsa for that. She immediately looked back to her husband with a mix of shock and horror. She was almost speechless from what he had just said.

"I'm sorry, what?"

"Well you said so yourself, if this has happened multiple times in her short life than maybe its about time you accept her fate and let her go."

She didn't know what made it worse, what he said or the calmness and nobility in which he said it. Elsa merely stared at him in a stunned silence. Part of her wanted to slap him, cause as much pain as possible. How dare he suggest that Anna wasn't deserving of a long and happy life, filled with hope, joy and laughter. If anyone was deserving of dying young it was Elsa, Anna getting sick and frozen was all because she was careless and lost control. She had lied, she had caused pain, and she was willing to kill for her own freedom when she should have been protecting her kingdom from people like Prince Hans and the Duke of Wessleton. Arendelle almost fell because of her selfishness. Anna's heart was pure, she wouldn't be able to hurt anyone if her life depended on it. Well there was a time when she was chasing a pig and a few chickens and a stilt walker got a few bumps and bruises but that was more a result of Anna's signature clumsiness more than anything else.

"Excuse me," Were the only words that Elsa could muster through her gritted teeth, she walked away while clenching her fists so the grand ballroom wouldn't be covered in a thin but jagged layer of ice for the rest of the evening. She needed to get away from Loki to calm herself down, she would confront him later and remind him whose kingdom he was in. It wasn't until a familiar mop of brown hair caught her attention that she began to smile again.

"Elsa!" Rapunzel yelled, there was a skip in her step as she dragged her husband Eugene across to her cousin. Elsa couldn't help but chuckle at the sight. "We haven't seen you since the coronation, you look great."

"It's so good to see you Punzie."

"You too, everything looks so nice. My parents told me to tell you that their sorry that they couldn't make it, they've been busy with everything going on back in Carona. But their happy that you've finally decided to settle down!"

"Oh, no it's not exactly like that…" 'Here it goes' Elsa thought as she mentally prepared herself for a mini lecture from her cousin "It's an arranged marriage,"

Rapunzel's eyes widened in shock, she turned to Eugene half expecting him to say something but for once he was stuck for words. Rapunzel turned back to Elsa so quickly one side of her golden crown slipped slightly from her head. While beginning to speak she pulled on the opposite side to straighten it.

"What? Elsa you're against the idea of marriage all together. We were there when Anna met..." Rapunzel hesitated for a second, knowing full well that the very mention of Hans made any situation with the royals uncomfortable, "You-know-who and saw your reaction, why would you agree to this?"

"First of all, I only said know because she literally just met him that day. And ever since the incident Arendelle no longer has protection from the Southern Isles, This was the only way Loki's kingdom would make an alliance."

"There's more to this than your letting on isn't there," Eugene immediately questioned, from Elsa's silence he could tell that he was right. "Elsa, what happened?"

"There was still ice in Anna's heart from years ago, I was crazy enough to ask the Norse gods for help and unbelievably it worked."

"Like the ones from the legends?" Rapunzel somewhat instinctively elbowed Eugene in the side for interrupting. You know for a small princess who used to have magic hair she can be one scary girl, and can apparently teach anyone a lesson with a frying pan at hand. Elsa nodded, she understood the couple's disbelief, she didn't believe it even with Odin stood right in front of her.

"Odin said that if I was willing to perform a soul connection with an Asgardian he would save her. He said that he could double the arrangement into a marriage with one of his sons to form an alliance and with after what happened with the Southern Isles and Wessleton I didn't exactly have much choice." They seemed almost dumbfounded by her explanation of the events, Elsa wasn't surprised. It's a lot for anyone to take in.

"But you still have Corona's protection, we have a good army. Why did you feel the need to make another alliance?"

"I know Rapunzel, and we're grateful for any help you give us. But Arendelle and Corona are two days by boat apart from each other, if something happens then we need immediate help. And protection from what are basically Gods is the best we're gonna get, I couldn't say no." Rapunzel nodded at the answer her cousin gave her. There have been rumours throughout the nations that the Southern Isles were causing trouble. How and why nobody could say for sure, but because of more personal matters getting involved was a guarantee for Arendelle. Which meant Corona would not hesitate to come to their aid.

"I'm sorry, it's late. I'd better go to bed." What Elsa really needed was an excuse to leave the party, she was never one for large social gatherings. And she was defiantly not one for social gatherings with people suggesting that her sister should have died.

"Just promise me you'll be careful." Rapunzel requested.

"King Richmond and Queen Adela send their blessings." Eugene called as he steered his wife away, along with a muttered 'let's go and dance Blondie'.

Elsa took one last look at the scene around her before leaving. At lease everyone else was having a good time even if she wasn't. With only a quick notice to the guards saying to make sure the celebrations in the castle finish before midnight she headed for her chambers. The whole world seemed to go into a haze around her until she reached her room, angry red clouded her vision as she opened her door. She undid the clasp of her robes and let them trail to the floor, along with her crown and shoes. She didn't bother hanging up her dress like she normally would have done, it meant less work for Gerda in the morning. Once she was in her loose flowing nightgown Elsa stared at her floor, the mess around her usually pristine bedroom wasn't enough.

She needed to break something.

She fashioned a helmet out of ice, thick ice. It had two curling horns but it wasn't necessarily Loki's. She placed it on her carpeted floor and she went over to the right side of her bed where she kept her sword. It had once belonged to her mother, despite how shy and timid she came across she was an excellent swordsman. Admittedly this was the first time that she had used it outside of practice, her advisers suggested that she should have it with her whenever she was alone or had few guards around her in case something happened so she was well trained. Elsa never really felt the need to use it though, for the pst few years her powers had been her ultimate defence and weapon.

But tonight she needed to use it properly. She created an ice stand that rose from the floor that brought the ice helmet to about her level, with one swift movement the horns fell off. They left sharp edges and smooth flat surfaces behind them. It was then that Elsa lost it, she went into full on attack mode and attempted to damage the helmet as much as possible, when only a jagged book sized piece remained the door opened, much to Elsa's ignorance.

"Hey Elsa, I just came to see if you wer-" Anna stopped in mid-sentence shocked to see her usually calm and collective queen, let alone sister, acting do violently. Elsa caught sight of Anna after a second, their eyes locked for a second. Both girls turned red, Elsa out of embarrassment and Anna trying not to burst into fits of laughter. She couldn't help it! Elsa's hair as wild as Anna's in the mornings, her room as messy as hers, and Elsa looking like a child who just got caught with her hand in the sweets jar. It all became too much and she could no longer hold back her peals of laughter.

"What did I tell you about knocking Anna?!" Elsa half screamed at her sister as she turned even more red.

"Should I come back later?" Anna could barely get the sentence out, she was laughing so hard she could barely breathe.

"PLEASE!"

"Okay!" And with that Anna ran out of the room slamming the door behind her. Her laughing only got louder once outside. The elder sister just rolled her eyes, put her sword back and climbed into bed.

"Idiot" was her last mutter before she went back to sleep.

AUTHORS NOTE
