Frozen Frost II: Chapter 7 - Anna's Anger

Anna had come into the guest room where Rapunzel was staying, only to find Elsa holding a shaking Rapunzel in her arms.

“What’s going on?” Anna looked at Rapunzel’s hair “Rapunzel…your hair. How?”

Elsa stroked Rapunzel’s hair. “I don’t know if she’s ready to explain. She’s really shaken up.” Then suddenly Elsa remembered what Rapunzel had told her about Anna’s new powers. “Wait a minute, Anna, you have powers now?”

“Yeah! Check it out!” Anna raised her hand and made a floating flame. “This is why my body heat is so hot. I’m mean, yeah it’s a bit of a down side but this is so cool, right? I’m just like you now!”

Elsa started to feel uneasy. She helped Rapunzel get on her feet and walked her back to the bed. Rapunzel laid her head down on the pillow and closed her eyes. Elsa tucked her in. “Get some sleep, okay?” Elsa whispered.

“Okay.” Rapunzel whispered back.

Elsa walked up to Anna “Let’s talk in private in my room, she needs rest.”

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Elsa and Anna reached Elsa’s room.

“Gee, I really hope Punzie is okay. She seemed terrified.” Anna said, her voice full of worry.

“You have no idea.” Elsa closed her door, something she didn’t do often anymore. “But let’s talk about your condition.”

“Condition? You mean my powers? I wouldn't call it a ‘condition’ that makes it sound like a bad thing. I'd call it a ‘gift’.” Anna said with a smile of excitement.

Elsa sighed. She didn’t want to be a downer to her little sister but she couldn’t shake this bad feeling she was having. “Anna…I’m concerned for you.”

Anna looked at her sister in confusion. “Why? What’s wrong?”

“Powers, while they can be amazing in many ways, they can also be very dangerous if you don’t know how to use them or if you can’t control them. Trust me I know what I'm talking about.”

Anna shook her head. “No, I can control it. I spent all last night practicing. You might’ve not been happy with your powers at first but I am with mine. “

Elsa took a deep breath and walked to her dresser and pulled out a small blue and silver locked chest. She walked back to Anna, carrying the chest with her. “I promised myself I would never open this chest. It’s locked because in it is things I never wanted to look at ever again because it always brought back painful memories. But now, I feel I have to bring them out once again.” Elsa walked to her desk and put the chest on it. She motioned Anna to come with her.

Anna was a little afraid of what she might see in the chest. “What’s this all about, Elsa?”

Elsa didn’t answer. She was too focused on the locked chest. Elsa raised her hand and made an ice key. She inserted the key into the keyhole. Before turning the key to fully unlock it she took another deep breath then proceeded. In the chest were her aqua gloves.

Elsa hesitated to touch them but quickly found the courage to do so. “Anna, I hate to do this but I feel that you should wear these until Jack, Kristoff and Olaf come back with Grand-Pabbie and his cure for you.”

“What?” Anna backed away from her sister. “No! I’m not wearing those! And I’m not taking that cure. They’re wasting their time going they should’ve never left.”

Elsa walked forward to her sister. “Anna, I’m scared for you, I don’t want you getting hurt. I know you say that you can control it, but for how long. I have a gut feeling that’s telling me something doesn’t seem right.”

“I can control my powers, you’ll see just trust me, please.” Anna put her hands behind her back. “Just give me a chance to prove to you I can do this.”

“Anna, you, just a day ago, gained powers out of the blue. It doesn’t make sense.”

“Please don't do this. I thought you'd be happy for me. Or are you just jealous! That’s it isn’t it?”

Elsa was taken aback by her tone. “Jealous? Why would I be jealous?”

“You're jealous and upset that you’re no longer the special one!”

Elsa couldn't believe what she was hearing. Her sister never acted this way towards her before. “Anna, I could never be jeal-“

“Oh no? Why not? Is it because you’re so perfect? Is it because you’re more lady-like than I am? You have no idea how I feel when I’m compared to you!”

“Anna, you are acting ridiculous, stop it. Please listen to me.” Elsa held her gloves to Anna.

“NO, KEEP THOSE AWAY FROM ME!” Anna slapped the gloves out of Elsa’s hands, burning her hands in the process.  

“AHH!” Elsa put her hands to her chest. Her hands were steaming now that the flicker of fire disappeared from her hands. “Anna…”

Then Anna realized what she did. “Elsa I…” Anna was too ashamed to say anymore. She ran out of the room and out the castle doors.

--------------------------------------

Anna ran to the courtyard to hide. Then finally she found a spot. She couldn't believe the way she acted towards Elsa, her own sister that she cared about so much.

She looked down at her hands. Maybe Elsa was right. Maybe she really couldn’t control her powers. She had been acting strangely ever since she woke up her body heat problem. If only she could remember what had occurred before she became unconscious, then this would probably all make sense.

She needed to find out. Maybe if she focused really hard to could remember.

Anna closed her eyes tight. “I have to just focus. Focus! Remember, remember, remember.” As her eyes where closed black floating dust swirled all around her. Anna, with her eyes closed, suddenly saw a tall man with gray skin in a black robe. Anna gasped “I REMEMBER!!!” Then the earth started to shake all around and all through Arendelle. “Oh no, what’s happening!!!” Anna yelled.
