A/N: This is a short story I started a couple of months ago, which takes place several months after the events of "Frozen Fever". It will be posted in short parts, mostly because I've had a lot of trouble getting inspired to write lately.

Followers will notice that I've also changed the name of this FFnet story; it is now a collection of my one-shots and short stories for Frozen, with "Moonlight" being the first.

"Déjà-ACHOO!" (Part 1)

Anna couldn't figure out why her sister hadn't come down to breakfast yet.

This wasn't particularly unusual—it had been over a year since what most of Arendelle called the "Great Freeze", and Elsa still persisted in having unusual hours, working late into the night, and rising early in spite of so little sleep. Anna was concerned for her sister's health, fearing what might happen if she pushed herself too hard.

What was unusual now was that Anna was awake and having breakfast, and there was no sign of the Queen—usually, Anna knew, it was the other way around. But ten o'clock had to be an all-time record for Elsa not showing up. Unless she had gone out (which was unlikely, given her recent workload), the only times her sister did not rise at a reasonable hour were on the weekend (unless there was an emergency), on holidays, and... when she was sick.

Anna set her fork down next to her half-eaten breakfast (eggs and biscuits, today), and rang the little bell on the table.

"Is something wrong with your eggs, dear?" Mistress Nora asked, bustling into the room. The head cook was one of the few castle staff who seldom used formalities with the princess.

"No, not at all, they're wonderful, really!" Anna said quickly. "Best I've ever had. I'm just worried about Elsa. Can you ring for Kai, please?"

"Of course, Your Highness," Nora replied, all business now. She returned to the kitchens, and a loud chime was heard. A few minutes later, Kai appeared.

"Have you seen my sister this morning?" Anna asked without preamble.

"No, Princess Anna, but I did call on her earlier," the portly man explained, "and she claimed she was busy. That was several hours ago," he added, glancing at the clock on the mantelpiece.

"Hmm," Anna said. "You know, Kai, I kind of wonder if she's all—" A loud clattering sound cut her off. She and the butler dashed out of the dining room toward the source of the commotion, the great spiral staircase. Or rather, what was at the bottom of it.

As both a child and a young adult, Anna had had many mishaps around these suits of armor—crashing into them after a bad dismount sliding down the banister, nearly crashing the two-seater bike into them, maybe one or two other crashes—but this time, there appeared to be no explanation for the suits falling over. Or so she thought, until one of them started wiggling. Not a lot—but enough to make Anna jump a foot in the air.

Collecting herself, Anna stepped forward and poked at the seemingly-alive suit of armor with her foot. When nothing happened, she reached down and pulled the gauntlet off that she knew was loose. A small snow-creature popped out of the suit, and Anna gave a yelp of surprise.

It had little round feet, no arms, coal eyes, and a cheeky grin on its face. A snowgie, Anna thought with horror. That was what she and Kristoff had decided Elsa's little sneezed-up snowmen should be called, and its appearance here could mean only two things: either one had escaped and come down from the North Mountain, or Elsa really was sick.

"Kai, fetch the Captain of the Guards, please," Anna said with as much formality as she could muster.

"At once, Your Highness," Kai said, bowing before heading to the barracks.

Anna picked up the snowgie before it could get away, and set it on her shoulder, hoping it would stay there. She poked around the suits of armor some more, and found two additional snowgies.

They come in threes, she thought ruefully, as Kai and Captain Rolf returned.

"You sent for me, Your Highness?" the Captain asked, gaping at the snowgies sitting on Anna's shoulders. She thought she saw him mouth "Not again", but she wasn't sure.

"Yes. Rolf, Kai..." The princess trailed off, wondering what she would have them do. "I'd like you to do something. Two somethings. One, keep an eye out for these things"—she indicated the snowgies—"and if you find any, try to dissuade them from leaving the castle. And two..." She looked directly at Captain Rolf now. "Under no circumstances is my sister to leave the castle while she's sick. Those are my orders."

"But, Your Highness, the Queen's word supersedes—" Rolf cut himself off at the challenging stare Anna hoped she had on her face. "Yes, Your Highness," he conceded.

"Good. I'm going to go find Elsa. Oh, Kai..." she said, stopping the butler before he could leave. "Could you do me a favor, and find the Ice Master? I may need his help."

"Of course, Princess Anna," Kai replied, and left.

Kristoff probably won't be happy about it, Anna thought. He didn't seem too thrilled after dropping off that army of snowgies last time...

A/N: I'd been wanting to do a "sick Elsa" scenario for a while, but wasn't really inspired to until "Frozen Fever" came out. (That I waited two months to try writing one is beside the point.)

–Mistress Nora and Captain Rolf are two of my OCs (who don't really have backgrounds yet) from The Calm After the Storm.

–I was obviously thinking of the scene in "For the First Time in Forever", when Anna shakes the hand of the suit of armor, and the whole arm comes off.

–Kristoff's prior misadventure with the snowgies will be expanded on in later chapters.
