Thunderbolts, a black cloud, already the second, it all shook everyone, the barbarians, the peoples of the north, except for one curious creature of snow, Olaf looked up at the sky and raised his wooden hands and pointed to a sparkling point in the sky, it was Anders glowing with electricity.
The terrified barbarians, seeing the loader man in a shiny red shirt, brown pants and green eyes glistening with powerbows as well as brown short hair, made them back away, Ressa and Hatos immediately took Ryder and Honeymaren to arms, and Anders with a big smile and he stared right at them with his eyes wide open.
- stop madman or my ax will speak, you hear!. shouted Hatos.
- stop or!. Ressa screamed but her hand trembled as she lowered her sword blade slightly and Anders extended his right hand and index finger to her.
- I've seen, I've heard, I know who you are, a traitor, using the naive for her own purposes, believe me, when I'm done with you, I'll destroy you with the greatest pleasure, just like I did with Arendelle. Anders said, spreading a fog of lies and illusions everywhere, and everyone was shocked with horror.
- What have you done, you monster!. Honeymaren screamed and Anders laughed again in a truly diabolical way.
- it's obvious, I'm sick of your conflicts, I've known that too often in my world, so since you are all guilty of the sin of your own humanity, I will destroy everything, all of you!. Anders shouted, sending a massive thunderous thunder across the ground.
Shocked barbarians, leading them, Hatos released Honeymaren seeing and knowing that he was dealing with a madman, a destroyer, Hatos rushed to the right and a powerful thunderbolt cut through everything in its path, striking ten barbarians and blowing them up in the area, Anders threw another thunderbolt on the ground and his power shattered the next of the warriors, sending a terrified Ressa to the ground.
When there was a momentary silence Honeymaren in uncontrollable anger threw many bitter words at Anders and he suddenly dispelled the black cloud over noon laughing out loud at everyone.
- What are you doing, you monster?, Come on!. Honeymaren screamed.
- why are you like this, why, what did we deserve!. Yelena screamed, still looking with fear in her eyes.
- it was a bluff to protect you, a lie, I defeated your enemies with their own weapons!, and how do you feel stink, how!. Anders shouted and Honeymaren and Yelena shuddered as the truth reached their ears.
- so he's not that bad!, I knew!. Olaf shouted as he ran to meet the sixth ghost.
- Hi, I'm Olaf. said Olaf, extending his right and left wooden hands to the otherworldly man and the sudden fear that hit him.
- so innocent, funny, how good it is that you're not human. Anders said, placing his right hand on Olaf's head and aiming, now full of determination, at the thirty barbarians, twenty of them trying to get up.
- well, you have something else to tell me, hey Ryder, you better stay away from this traitor, I will destroy her completely, I will break her like a matchstick, but first you!. Anders said clenching his fists.
Hearing seeing the madness in the eyes of the man from another world, Ryder looked at the terrified Ressa, her fear was so visible that she was unable to raise the weapon, suddenly Ryder saw a powerful lightning bolt, in one second Ryder stood in the way of the thunderbolt, and Ressa seeing what the naive man was doing doing it again for her, Ressa suddenly pursed her lips, grabbed Ryder, threw him to the right and took a massive thunderbolt that knocked her to the ground and broke her hard plate armor.
- Ressa no!. Ryder shouted, throwing himself at the unconscious girl with a broken cuirass, and Honeymaren, seeing it, suddenly also shuddered because she saw what was impossible, but not Anders, who was marching calmly, he kept throwing long thunderbolts, tearing the earth and steel, throwing high more shocked barbarians.
Anders was rolling his unbridled power around the battlefield with great passion, guiding his hands along the ground, he released columns of pure power rushing across the broken ground, and the power of the thunderbolts exploded in a truly loud and spectacular way at the moment of impact, creating great collapses of pure power and the shocked and the stricken barbarians struck the earth and the great four stones.
Anders struck lightning again from his right and left hand lifting thirty barbarians high, their shock, shock was as great as their scream, finally Anders swung his palms to the right and scattered the smitten barbarians to the east fifty meters away, leaving the terrified general, Hatos, on the battlefield, his hands, armor, beard, and black hair all trembled as he looked at his defeated soldiers, broken armor, shields, weapons, and now he had unbridled power before him.
- come on, try your luck, try it. Anders said, picking up a lying sword from the ground.
Seeing this, Hatos did not want to fight anyway, because he had already struck once, he had hit the target and yet it did nothing to the spirit of the sixth element, Hatos holding his axes high slowly and carefully backed up until Anders took off from his place like a thunderbolt, Hatos managed only to block the blow with his crossed axes, but when the blow came, it nearly tore his hands off, the blow shattered the two axes and the striking sword, and the mighty blow sent the general twenty meters high, Anders took off again into the sky and threw another thunderbolt , a powerful thunderbolt hit the target creating another thunder eruption collapse, Hatos fell to the ground with his armor broken amid his soldiers crawling and shivering.
Anders struck the ground in front of the general, and, picking up two swords, twisted them at the legs and hands behind the general's back, leaving him completely paralyzed as he watched the other barbarians flee in panic, at the same time the black cloud in the sky disappeared and everyone's full attention focused on trying get up Ressa.
- you are mine, I will destroy you once and for all for your betrayal. Anders said as his right hand materialized a javelin of pure thunder.
- Ressa, please, you have to run, quickly. Ryder said as he lifted the terrified girl from the ground, Ressa looked back for only a moment, her blue eyes quivering with fear and the man walking towards her with an electric javelin in his hand.
- please don't stop!. Honeymaren screamed, standing between the thundercloak and his victim.
- you can not do it. Yelena said as she stood with Honeymaren and Olaf waving his wooden arms.
- You don't have to do it, I don't want to be afraid. Olaf said.
- after all, she betrayed you, can't you see it, Honeymaren, tell me that you wanted to see her destroy this gangrene, so let me do it, go ahead. Anders said, directing his attention to the black-haired terrified girl who was now protecting a person not so tactfully hated for a long time.
- You can't do that, please. Honeymaren said.
- I know what I was saying, but now I saw something else, I understood why Ressa didn't hurt my brother and didn't want to threaten to hurt me, I know you can't do that, don't hurt my brother if you kill her, my brother, like this you will kill him too. Honeymaren added, falling to her knees and Anders, listening to her, crossed his eyebrows in a gesture of fury and rose above their heads throwing his electric javelin.
- there is no love here, there is only fear and lies, no!. Anders shouted, ripping the ground and rushing after the fleeing couple.
- no Please. Honeymaren screamed but was quickly knocked to the ground as well as Yelena and Olaf by a powerful gust of air from the temporarily formed black cloud.
Meanwhile, riding a bronze reindeer, Elsa headed north to the four Menhirs to see, to make sure she wasn't afraid anymore, she wanted to see it for herself, to see Anders save her friends and her other people, at one point riding on the edge of a hill overlooking the river, Elsa suddenly stopped Sven, looking in shock at what shocked her the most, it turned out to be Ryder standing in front of Anders, hiding Ressa with his own body, and his words were probably more shocking than what she saw.
- understand it naive, there is no love here, it's just an illusion and a lie, if you don't get out of my way, you'll feel my power yourself.
- what he is doing!. Elsa screamed.
- Elsa, you're here, what's going on?. Anna shouted as she and Kristoff stopped the brown steed and saw the same from the hill as Ryder and Anders stopped in a brief discussion.
- you can't stop me man, you know I'm very fast look at this!. Anders shouted, and in less than a second he was past Ryder, grabbed Ressa by the legs, and swung her down the hill, then Anders soared high into the sky and condensed another massive beam into his hands.
- he wants to destroy her, but why does Ryder want to save her, is he crazy!. Kristoff screamed in horror, looking fearfully at the unbridled power in the hands of a true madman.
- I don't know what's going on there, but it's not true what Anders says, it's no one's fault that Ryder fell in love with the wrong girl. Anna said herself not knowing what to do.
- Anders, please, why do you always have to look at everything with the measure of your world, does Hans' decision mean nothing to you, not everything is like in your world!. Elsa screamed and her words, loud voice made Anders look back and his right hand dropped slightly.
- don't be naive, the exception only proves the rule. Anders said, raising his right hand high again.
- nooo!. Ryder screamed, throwing himself at the shooting line, but again Ressa, using all her strength, jumped in front of him, grabbed him in a strong hug and, turning him to the right, threw him on the ground, taking a powerful thunderbolt on herself.
Powerful sparkling arcs of power rushed thrown by the thunderlord, and a powerful thunderbolt suddenly exploded, shattering everything in its path.
- Brother, not that!. Honeymaren screamed running up, leading Yelena and Olaf to follow, and a shocked Kristoff, Anna, and Sven shuddered as the mighty force shook the ground and water of the river but nothing else.
Everyone looked in shock at the woman warrior with broken armor standing still, Ressa with wide eyes stood untouched, and Anders with his right hand outstretched in front of him looked at the woman warrior, unable to say a word for a moment, the whole silence was broken by Ryder getting up quickly, getting between Ressa and him again, begging for mercy, begging for everything to stop.
- please, you can't, no. Ryder said.
- you're scared, you're both scared, I'm asking if you're both scared. Anders asked, slowly falling to the ground.
- I'm so afraid, I'm afraid for Ressa, I'm afraid that I might lose her and never see her again, and I won't say that I love her. Ryder said which made Anders clench his fists tight.
- I'm afraid too that he will never try to fix my mistakes, I see it now, I see it all too well, how I hurt the one I also loved, the first time someone had so much heart for me, I couldn't hurt him, Ryder or anyone , his sisters, nobody!, can you hear me, is fear and fear for someone wrong here. Ressa said loudly, pushing Ryder aside and standing in front of him, ready to fight.
- fear is always bad!, because it always leads to the greatest evil, if I struck a blow, each of you would become a monster, see it in the end, love also leads to evil!. Anders shouted, but his voice quivered on the last word as conflicting thoughts hit him.
- I'm not afraid of death, I'm not afraid to give my life for my beloved, and you're right if you hurt him, but thanks to him, I know who I was, is your fear here only a force that brings evil, if to be afraid of others more than for myself is a sign of evil, you too have saved so many, all of Arendelle, then why did you do it. Ressa asked as she stepped in front of Ryder and slowly approached Anders.
- I did it by the power of my madness, I countered myself, I countered my own counters, and now I'll give you a chance, what do you think, why did I withdraw my lightning, because I could have struck and yet I did something else. Anders said with a confident smile.
- but he is a madman. Yelena said looking at Anders with wide eyes.
- he is mad but not mad, but is it a bad thing to be afraid of family. Anna asked.
- yes, because there is always some truth in the shadows, a second goal, great, I know, you were ready to give your life for your sister out of love, Kristoff also did a lot because he loves you, Hans betrayed the barbarians because he did not want to become the monsters they are now Ressa and Ryder both are willing to give their lives for each other because they are afraid, afraid, but not because of the power of fear, what did I say!. Anders said as something hit him and he backed away from everyone.
- don't come near me. Anders screamed, clutching his head, looking strangely at Ressa who stopped in place.
- what does it mean, was everything I saw in my world, however, was different, was the ultimate truth always hidden in the shadow of fear and lies, Carlos, an innocent naive like Ryder, Hans changing from fear because he was afraid to become what they were barbarians, not out of fear, fear and fear are two forces, different from each other, or really, or maybe I said it, fear is just an excuse here?, no!, no!, no!. shouted Anders, lowering his hands and looking at everyone again with a strange strength in his eyes.
- I think he's planning something big. Honeymaren, standing on the edge of the hill, said.
- don't be afraid, I think I understood something, yes, is this world, this world is different, and mine, now I see it, come on, most people are evil, but there has always been the power of innocence in them, the power to rebel against fear, that's why I met Carlos, innocent, that's why Olivia never pulled the trigger, she was more afraid for me than for herself and the possible consequences. Anders said, falling to his knees, placing his hands on the ground and squeezing the earth in his hands.
- you are different, Ressa you are the same as Olivia, you finally saw the truth, this young and naive man showed you something completely different, he showed you true love, but your heart must have felt something a long time ago, tell me but not me. Anders said as he sat on the ground and Ressa, listening to him, released many tears and looked into Ryder's blue eyes.
- yes, when I left for the first time after the meeting there in the cave, when you treated me, healed me, fed me, when I left you, then something stopped me, what did it do. Ressa said, squeezing her beloved tightly.
- not me, you, what you did to me. Ressa said, hugging her beloved tightly.
- yes, now I see it, to be afraid, to fear for loved ones is not fear, it's a different force, just like love and loving, it's obvious, love is everyday, typical, boring, because love can define everything, but love is a completely different story when you truly love you are ready to give your life for a dear person or homeland, it's obvious, I, I'm sorry, I shouldn't, I shouldn't, I. Anders said as he got up and slowly walked towards the river.
- Anders, please wait, don't go!. Elsa screamed, freezing the slope as she slid down and stopped in front of the otherworldly man.
- no Elsa, what are you doing!. Anna screamed but was quickly stopped by the grip on her left hand and Krostoff whispering in her ear.
- Anna, can't you see, give your sister a moment, Anders won't hurt her, won't. Kristoff said, looking confidently down the hill with Sven muttering calmly in his language and Olaf staring into silence.
- Anders, please, you don't have to leave. Said Elsa looking into the green eyes of the man from another world.
- it will be better this way, and I doubt your enemies will threaten you any further, the refugees will certainly strike the right terror among the others, and, I think I have found my home after all, this world will be my home, my world may have been my home too, but no, this it's impossible. Anders replied smiling at the princess and instinctively touching her white hair.
- you know, you're beautiful, me!. shouted Anders, backing away suddenly in a panic attack.
- did he really say that?. Said an amused Olaf then rolled down the valley.
- it looks like it, but what does it mean. Yelena asked.
- certainly nothing wrong. Said Honeymaren, looking smiling at her brother and Ressa, and at the man from the other entourage and Elsa.
- wait, wait, not so fast, hey!. Envious Anna shouted, unable to swallow today that her sister had begun to get too close to a man from another world, to a madman.
- Anna, come on, don't interrupt them, besides, it's not Hans, they haven't known each other for a day and much longer, and you probably know how it is. Hans said, and Sven, standing beside him, grunted once, nodding his head and his antlers.
- I know what it's like to make a big mistake when I choose. Anna said.
- but your sister didn't make a mistake, that's not bad. Kristoff said as Anders took a step back again.
- Anders, do you really have to leave us, I would like to be your friend. Olaf said and Anders shook his head alone, fighting the conflicting thoughts of his own inner conflict.
- Elsa, fight for yours, fight for him, if he leaves now you'll never forgive yourself, just like I wouldn't forgive myself for losing Ryder. Ressa said, squeezing her beloved's right hand tightly.
- Elsa, fight for him like me. said Ryder, squeezing his beloved's left hand tightly.
Hearing everything, Elsa rushed forward trying to escape Anders, quickly grabbed his right and left hand and he no longer had the strength to fly into the sky to escape, instead he stared into the blue eyes of the white-haired princess.
- Anders, tell me if you're scared now, or if you're in the grip of fear. Elsa asked.
- there is no fear in me, but I'm afraid that I might hurt you, I don't know, I'm not the right candidate, and when you love someone, you'll do anything for that person, me, with me, uh. Anders said suddenly stopped by the quick kiss Elsa gave him.
- Anders, you me. Elsa asked with a big blush on her face and the smile and calmness in Anders's gaze gave her great peace.
- I know why that day when I saved you, I didn't leave you alone and yet I could have taken you to Arendelle, done anything, thanks to you I understood, I never loved her, Olivia, I felt only sympathy and care for her as for a younger sister whom I wanted to take care of, now I see it well, I of it. Anders said looking deep into the blue eyes of the princess and her joy.
- Anders, I'll take care of you now, just let me, let us, and please don't run away. Said Elsa again approaching the surprised man from another world.
- this, here, but here?, how?, I'm scared, and this is, this is real madness, madness. Said Anders, trying to escape the loving gaze of the princess with his eyes, but it was all stopped by the first kiss that took the human madness to a completely different track and Anders tenderly hugged Elsa.
- I love you from the first moment I saw you, and please, Anders, don't run away, don't leave me alone. Elsa said tenderly squeezing her beloved in a strong hug just like Anders.
- I love you Elsa, come on, I should have seen this a long time ago, my madness. Said Anders, probably for the first time reconciled in his madness, without war and counter-attacks.
- so we're both pretty crazy. Elsa said kissing Anders again and he closed his eyes squeezing Elsa gently.
- Come on, I'm taking you home. Elsa said.
- home, my home, I didn't think I would find it among people, but it was a good choice, the token chose the right place and I chose my way to you, to you, thank you. Anders said laying his head on the right shoulder of the princess who was whispering words full of love in his ears.
- I didn't expect that. Yelena said, wiping a few tears from under her eye.
- you tell me that, oh how sweet, and when I finally find my prince. Honeymaren asked herself.
- soon, it will happen to everyone eventually, everyone. Kristoff said holding Anna close to him.
- I don't know, I'm skeptical, this dough won't make bread. Anna said with a sneer looking at the whole situation.
- Anna, now you remind me a bit of me, when I heard about my brother's chosen one, I was also a little angry, when Ressa betrayed me, I was furious, but when Ressa shielded my brother who wanted to shield her from lightning, I understood, I saw the truth, give them a chance. Honeymaren said and Sven echoing her, murmuring in his tongue as he lifted and lowered his head.
In the end, Anna gave up on everything too, because she herself knew what it was like to misplace feelings on the one hand, but then to find true love, just like Ryder walking up the hill holding Ressa as well as her own sister hugging Anders, everything was so similar and in a way crazy, because what is love when it is free from fear and lies, when a man has his own free choice, whether it is part of madness, it's hard to say like when a free man does evil, free from fear and lies, does not change is the fact that it is his own choice, his strength or weakness, but only a true madman can rise above it, and only a madman is able to create, build a perfect world, his own world, or the world around him. And so it happened by the hand of two madmen, Elsa and Anders, their own mutual choice, so it happened today.
L
Fear, fear for loved ones and fear seem to be two different things, two different elements, like love born of truth or madness, it doesn't change the fact that Ryder changed a lot, changed Ressa's black heart, showed her the truth and she saw a real treasure that is really worth fighting for, just like Elsa did by showing a crazy man the truth of her own heart, so did he, just like Anders did, and I don't see it as naive, others may say that I'm naive, that seeing it like this, that believing that even someone who is bad can be changed is naive, on the other hand there are those who cannot be saved and changed, they are evil to the core, they are slaves of fear and lies and they use it as an excuse, there is no doubt in them and hesitation, Ressa found her doubt and hesitation, that means she wasn't to the core of evil, but true evil cannot be changed, and that is Horgan, the greatest art is to recognize those who can be changed from those who are unsavable, are evil to the marrow of their bones and such people are burned to the ground, but sometimes leaving them defeated is a worse punishment here than the final blow, because the image of defeat always hurts the most.
