Frozen: The Dragon Princess
Chapter 6
The Dragon Girl who leapt through time
As much as Anna wanted to get started on her quest as soon as possible, she knew now that she just couldn't fly away for days at a time, not without everyone panicking, so she spent a week looking through every spell in her book.
"Teleportation, maybe, homunculus, nu-uh, time travel…." Her eyes stopped on the section of time travel. She remembered that the book had something about time travel for her quest for the gem. She flipped to the quest section and found it.
"The clues to the gem have been scattered across all of time and space. To find them you must follow the clues in order from first to last" The book explained. Beside the message was the list of clues and their last know locations and times, though not what they were.
"Guess they can't make it too easy" Anna thought. She went back to the section on time magic and read it.
"Time magic is one of the most difficult magic's to use. It requires the greatest of concentration and care to use, lest you throw yourself into a timeless void from which there is no escape" The book explained. Anna gulped but kept reading.
"In order to travel through time you must have a complete understanding of when you wish to be. You must also have complete desire to go there and full faith that you will get there" The book explained.
"Is that all?" Anna asked as she turned the page.
"Unlike elemental magic, time magic is an energy that comes from entirely from the will of the caster. While fire or water can be created and left by the caster, time magic must be constantly created from the dragon's soul. This makes it the most complicated and dangerous magic to use as well as the most taxing. When used make sure to have a large reserve of magical energy and be prepared for heavy drain" The book said.
"So if I use time magic, it will tire me out, but if I use time magic, I can go wherever I want and then come back a little after I leave, I hope" She told herself. She hopped off the bed and stood in the middle of the floor. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes.
"Imagine when I want to be and focus on going there" She whispered to herself and an image of the last time she and Elsa had met filled her mind, the night after her birthday. She took her magic and wove it out, keeping the image in her mind, yearning for it with all her heart and soul. She felt something catch her and felt the magic being dragged out of her like a hand pulling the stuffing out of a doll. She couldn't stop it, all she could do was hold to the image will all her might as she felt her body being pulled along with her magic. She crashed to the floor, breathless and dizzy. She was still in her room, but it was night out, and her room was dark. She pushed herself up, but almost passed out as a wave of dizziness hit her, but she shook her head to clear it and stumbled toward the door.
"If I feel this bad, then it had to work" Anna thought, a surge of adrenaline at her success washing away some of her tiredness. She opened her bedroom door a crack and peeked out to make sure no one was around then stepped out slowly. She managed to call up an invisibility cloak, and half creeping, half stumbling she walked down the hallway that led to the dining room. She peeked around a corner just in time to see herself run into Elsa.
"Elsa, I'm so sorry" Anna said as Elsa groaned. Anna rushed and putting her hands under her sister heaved and lifted the older girl to her feet. Elsa shook her head and looked at Anna in the eyes.
"Anna?" Elsa asked still slightly stunned form her impact.
"Are you okay?" Anna asked
"What happened?" Elsa asked.
"We kind of ran into each other" Anna said, blushing but happy.
"I felt like I hit a wall" Elsa said and Anna giggled.
"I've been working out" Anna only half joked.
"Are you going to be okay?" Anna asked as Elsa's head finally cleared and she saw how close her little sister was, and jerked away, almost ripping her cloths in Anna's tight grip.
"Elsa what's wrong?" Anna said, moving to touch her sister again only to have her shy away again.
Anna watched herself tear up and run off, right by her, on her way to her room. Anna peeked around the corner again only to almost be run down by Elsa fleeing back to her own room. Anna slid down to the floor, pulling her knees to her chest. Even though she should have felt excited about her first trip through time, all she felt was the same pain and hurt. Seeing how sad it made Elsa to push her away left Anna with nothing but questions, the same old questions she couldn't answer. Her only hope was to find the dragons heart. It held the key to fixing everything. She closed her eyes, and gathering what was left of her power she willed herself forward. It was easier than moving back. It was like there was a tether running from her navel out into the future. She grasped it and it pulled her back to the present almost all on its own. She found herself still sitting in the hall, invisible. She stayed there, her arms wrapped around her knees. Eventually she fell asleep on the floor.
"Anna! Anna dear where are you?" She heard her mother's voice calling. Ann jerked awake to find herself still on the cold floor, her body stiff. She stood up and stretched, and realized her invisibility cloak was still on her. She dropped it just as her mother walked around the corner.
"Oh Anna, there you are" her mother said relieved scooping her up.
"Where were you, you weren't in your room?" Her mother asked sternly.
"I fell asleep on the floor" Anna said truthfully. Her mother's face fell and a look of sorrow crossed it.
"Let's get you ready for the day" She said.
So Anna's first jaunt through time. If you're wondering why I didn't take her to the night of the accident, Anna will not learn about Elsa's powers until the movie. This is a prequel story, not an A.U. I think it adds a bit of tragedy that Anna goes on the big quest, and never knows her sister has powers of her own. Also I'm going to try to label my chapters.
Here is where you vote via review. Do you want this to be a big four story, where Anna teams up with the big four (if you don't know them, google it). Or do you want me to run a Kingdom Hearts esq. story where she visits different Disney worlds only? I'll wait a week, that will give me time to work on the chapters for both storylines.
