(Y/N)'s P.O.V

Why was Hans there? Where's Anna?!

I slam into the wall with a gasp as I stumble, noticing outside was becoming... Disastrous.

A storm was swirling around us, no doubt due to Elson's fear.

I need to find Anna and get to Elson. He must be terrified.

I squeal as I trip over something, falling onto the floor as a familiar voice gasps.

"Oh! (Y/N)... I am so sorry! Oopsie, are you okay?" Olaf questions, quickly piecing himself together and rushing to me.

"Anna... Anna..." I manage out, struggling to stand as he tries to help me. "This way!"

He follows me without question, and we manage to make it to the study.

I quickly try to open the door, slamming against it a few times and jiggling the nob with frustration.

"No... Anna!"

...

Third Person P.O.V

Anna looks up at the door when she hears (Y/N).

"Help..." She weakly gasps, shivering and noticing the roof freezing over with spikes.

...

(Y/N)'s P.O.V

"Anna's in there? Ooh! Let's go in!" Olaf grins in excitement.

"Locked..."

"Hmm. That is a problem," Olaf nods before taking off his nose and shoving it in the keyhole. "Another great thing about having a nose, is that it's so handy!"

He giggles as the door unlocks, making me gasp.

"Anna!" I yelp, staggering inside and noticing her behind the door, curled up in a ball.

"Guys!" Olaf gasps as I collapse on the floor near Anna, panting. "Oh, no!"

"Olaf... Fire..." I weakly mumble, making him look at the fireplace.

He runs to it, grabbing and tossing a few sticks in before shrieking as his arm waves at him.

I would have laughed, but was too much in pain to do so.

Elson...

"Guys..." Anna whimpers in confusion, making me nod as I struggle to help her to the fireplace as Olaf lights it. "Olaf! Get away from there!"

"Woah..." Olaf gasps, staring at the fire. "So this is heat..." He reaches for it. "I love it!" And yelps as his hand lights on fire. "Ooh! But don't touch it!"

He quickly waves his arm, putting out the fire and helping us to the fire.

"Hans... Why are you still..." I shiver, cutting myself off.

"Yeah! What happened to your kiss?"

"I-I was... Wrong about him..." Anna replies, making me frown. "It wasn't true love."

"It wasn't? What happened?"

"But we ran all the way here..." Olaf questions in sadness, and I notice a bead of water.

"Oh, Olaf... You can't stay here," I shiver, hugging Anna to my side.

"You'll melt!" Anna agrees.

"I am not leaving here until we find both of you an act of true love to save you!" Olaf firmly replies, sitting and leaning on my back. "Any ideas?"

"I don't even know what love is," Anna bitterly replies.

"It's okay! I do," Olaf stands, walking in front of us with a grin. "Love is... Putting someone else's needs before yours... Like... You know, how Kristoff brought you back to Hans and left you forever."

"K--Kristoff... Loves me?"

"... Anna... Yeah," I laugh, shaking my head. "I can't believe you didn't notice."

"You really don't know anything about love, do you?" Olaf questions, staring at Anna.

Anna looks down with a soft gasp before chuckling.

"We have to save you, too, (Y/N)!" Olaf continues, pacing.

"H--How? Elson..." I softly trail off, making Anna look at me. "I... I don't know... He... I love him. I-I don't know if he... even loves me back."

"Uh, yeah, he does!!" Olaf practically shrieks. "Elson is totally in love with you!"

"What?" I breathe out as he giggles.

"I heard it myself! He loves you, (Y/N)!" Olaf continues to cackle as I heavily blush with a small laugh. "He yelled it for the mountains to hear after he made me!"

"He's telling the truth," Anna weakly giggles, "At the coronation... man, he was so jealous when you were dancing with that guy. And he-- he... has liked you ever since we were kids."

"He... has?"

"Wow. Guess you're kind of oblivious, huh, (Y/N)?"

I watch as Olaf pushes his nose back up, the heat getting to him.

"Olaf... You're melting!" I gasp.

"Y--You gotta get away," Anna agrees, shivering.

"Some people are worth melting for," he simply replies, smiling.

We all smile softly, and I weakly laugh as his cheek droops.

He quickly fixes it, "except maybe not right this second!"

Third Person P.O.V

Olaf shrieks as the window blasts open, causing the two girls to gasp and violently shiver.

"Don't worry! I got it!" Olaf yells, rushing to the window, "we are gonna get through... Oh, wait."

"O-Olaf!" (Y/N) yells, shivering.

"Hang on, I'm getting something," Olaf breaks off an icicle, using it as a telescope.

He spots a figure racing down the mountain, making him gasp in delight.

"It's Kristoff and Sven!! They're coming back this way!" Olaf yells, making Anna gasp.

"They... They are?"

"Wow. He is really moving fast," Olaf watches. "I guess I was wrong. I guess Kristoff doesn't love you enough to leave you behind."

"Anna... We gotta get you to him," (Y/N) manages out, helping her up.

"Wait, I'm getting something else..." Olaf spots another figure in the distance, looking back with a panicked face as he runs. "Oh... Oh no. It's Elson!" (Y/N) gasps. "He looks like he's in trouble, and is running away!"

Olaf leans out the window, "WAIT! COME BACK! YOUR TRUE LOVE'S HERE!" He shrieks loudly, gasping and hopping off the table and rushing to the two girls.

"We-We have to get you to Elson," Anna urges to (Y/N), both nodding and determined to get to their loves.

"And you to Kristoff!"

"Why?" Olaf pauses, forgetting for a second before remembering. "Oh! I know why! There are your true loves! One running away in fear, awaiting his Lady to come rescue him while the other races here, riding across the fjords like a valiant, pungent reindeer king! Come on!"

Olaf gasps, along with (Y/N) as dozens of ice spikes scatter in the room, seeming to follow the two girls as they stagger out.

"Look out!"

(Y/N) helps Anna back up as she falls, nearly collapsing herself as she pulls Anna along.

The ice blocks the way forward, making Olaf gasp as the two girls pant heavily.

"Uh... Back this way!"

Anna yelps as she runs into (Y/N)'s back as she stops.

"It's... No use!"

"We're trapped..." Olaf gasps as the spikes and frost begin to move in on the three, blocking their escape.

...

Elson staggers through the cold, holding his hand up as a shield against the stinging wind as he pants heavily.

His hair flies madly as he spins around before whimpering, "oh..." And running in a random direction.

...

Olaf slams against the window, shrieking as the wind nearly takes him away.

He giggles as the two girls pull him back up before helping them onto the ledge.

"Slide, guys!" Olaf instructs, looking down at the roof.

(Y/N) slowly lowers Anna before following after, both girls shrieking as they slide along the frozen rooftops, Olaf screaming after them.

"We made it!"

Olaf was covered in a snowball, watching (Y/N) help Anna up before shaking himself out and urging the two to go.

...

Sven snorts and races quickly agaisnt the snow, Kristoff grunting as he leaps onto the fjord.

He lowers his head and braces for the storm's impact as it nears, grunting at the stinging cold.

"Come on buddy, faster!"

...

The two girls both stagger and yelp against the wind as Olaf follows after, sliding around.

"Kristoff!!" Anna yells into the howling wind, (Y/N) looking around for Elson.

"Elson!" (Y/N) calls, stumbling for a second.

"Keep going!" Olaf shrieks as the wind swoops him up, carrying him away.

Anna staggers around as (Y/N) tries to keep her balanced, and the two walk against the wind.

"Elson!" (Y/N) tries, but hears no response.

"Kristoff!"

...

Across the fjord, Sven runs with all his might.

"Come on!" Kristoff encourages, gasping as one of the ships moves with the wind and breaks the ice.

...

(Y/N) holds Anna to her side protectively as one of the ships shifts, threatening to crush them if it moved more.

Anna yelps and gasps, watching it carefully before noticing something.

"No..." She whimpers, watching as (Y/N)'s hands, along with her own begin to freeze solid.

...

Elson gasps and pants, looking around before feeling something was wrong.

He looks towards the direction of... Something. His heart was yelling at him to run that way.

So he did.

...

Kristoff urges Sven faster as they blindly race against the fog.

He yells out as a ship appears from nowhere, nearly falling on them if not for Sven skillfully dodging it.

Sven manages to get them out just as it crushed where they once were, leaping forward and racing against the crackling ice.

Kristoff gasps as the ice in front of them breaks apart from the impact, but Sven snorts and narrows his eyes in determination as he races on.

Kristoff cried out as Sven leaps onto an ice block before bucking him off to solid ice, sliding into the icy waters.

"Sven!!" Kristoff yells, looking where his friend once was.

It was silent for a moment, before Sven bursts from the water and manages to lift himself onto an ice block with a grunt, urging Kristoff to go.

"Good boy," he sighs in relief before turning and running on.

...

Anna gasps as (Y/N) staggers into her, before being blown the other way.

"Kristoff... Kristoff!"

...

"Anna!" Kristoff yells, running in the direction he heard the whimper from.

...

"Elson..." (Y/N) weakly calls, nearly giving up. "Elson!"

...

Elson pauses when he hears her voice before starting to race towards it with a gasp.

He skids to a stop before looking around wildly, silently pleading for her to make another noise.

Was that really her?

Elson turns around before gasping when he sees Hans, and starts rushing the opposite way before stopping as he yells his name.

"Elson! You can't run from this!"

Elson pauses before turning back, his face holding all his pain.

"Just... Take care of (Y/N) and my sister!"

"Your sister and (Y/N)?" Hans demands, "they returned from the mountain weak and cold. They said that you froze their hearts!"

"No..." Elson breathes out, eyes wide as tears appear in them.

"There... Was no saving (Y/N). And Anna... I tried to save her but it was too late!" Elson tilts his head, "their skin was ice, and their hair turned white." Elson allows a tear to fall, recognizing the effects of his magic. "Your friend and sister are dead. Because of you."

"No... No..." Elson whimpers, his heart shattering as it cries out.

He staggers a few steps back and turns away from the direction he heard her voice, and collapses onto the fjord in devastation.

The fog and storm dispersed, and all was calm.

...

Snowflakes froze in the air, staying in place as the fog cleared.

The nobles look down at Elson with gasps, looking around in slight awe before watching Hans and Elson.

...

(Y/N) holds Anna up as she struggles to find the will to take a step, desperate to at least save Anna if she could not herself.

...

Kristoff pants heavily before skidding to a stop when he notices two figures in the distance.

...

"Kristoff...!" Anna weakly calls, making (Y/N) gasp and look towards him with a smile.

"Go to him," she manages out, and collapses onto her knees as she gently pushes Anna.

...

Kristoff begins to race to them, "Anna!"

...

Anna pushes herself a few steps as Kristoff was only a few feet from her.

...

(Y/N) shivers violently, her face frosted over slightly and she gasps in pain as more of her froze.

Her ear catches the faint sound of a sword drawing, making her slowly look towards the noise.

"Elson...!" Her eyes widen as she pushes herself to rise when she sees Elson weeping on the ground, Hans approaching him with a menacing grin.

"No..."

(Y/N) whimpers in pain as her legs try to refuse to move, but she forces herself to run to him.

...

Anna pauses and turns to the sound of a sword drawing, her eyes also widening when she sees her brother about to be slain.

"Elson..."

She looks back at Kristoff with a whimper, before grunting and pushing herself to run to Elson.

She arrives in front of Elson, (Y/N) at her side just. Both girls protect him as Hans swings his sword down, (Y/N)'s hand outstretched as Anna moves close to her older brother.

"No!" (Y/N) shouts out with anger and determination.
