17 Corona's Fate
"Can't we do something!" Anna groaned while walking back and forth.
She hated being unable to do anything. They were stuck on the mountain with Merida and Elsa had seen going away from Arendelle anyway.
"Well I like your attitude," Merida grinned.
Anna glanced at the girl who was keeping up the fire. The air had been really chilly, even Sven the reindeer had been shivering though it had a warm coat.
"Thanks so are we actually going to stop sitting on our butts?" Anna frowned.
Kristoff sighed, he kept petting Sven while watching Anna's anxious movement. Sven looked at Kristoff with determination, suddenly he pulled his sleeve.
"I think Sven wants us to go after Elsa," Kristoff exclaimed.
Anna glanced at Kristoff, she knew that he didn't like to rush into action at all. Slowly she nodded and went to hug her husband.
"Thank you, " Anna exhaled.
"Can that reindeer carry us all? I have something we can use to get the Ice Queen out from Corona," Merida grinned and pulled out a snow globe from her pocket.
"How will that be something that helps? We throw it to Elsa's head and hope that she passes out?" Kristoff groaned.
"No, this is North's snow globe. It forms a portal taking you wherever you desire," Merida smiled.
"I got one from him when they were searching for Nightlight, they were in pretty bad shape the last time I saw them," Merida explained.
"You mean searching for Jack? So, who exactly are 'they'?" Anna asked while Kristoff prepared Sven. He had rid to Arendelle to get a sleigh.
"The four original Guardians - North is actually Santa Claus. Tooth Fairy, Bunnymund who you might know as Easter Bunny and then there's Sandy the Sandman. They were heading to Corona last time, they worried that Jack had tried to fly over the ocean to cross the barrier, they had found his staff washed ashore three years back," Merida explained.
"S-so Jack spoke the truth. I think he got through the barrier back then. We met him and he had lost his memories and hearing," Anna wondered.
"Ah, then it's true – if someone from the magical side tries to get to the nonmagical side you lose something," Merida hummed and finished packing up her things.
"Maybe the Guardians are missing because they ended up on the non magical barrier where Jack did?" Anna cheered and hit her fist to her palm.
Merida shook her head, "No. They barely had magic left in them. The things had been going rough after Nightlight left. The king of darkness saw his chance when fun left."
"This is so complicated!" Anna shrieked.
Merida nodded, "Yes. Well let's get going as soon as we can. The plan is to use the snow globe to bring Ice Queen back to Arendelle and defeat her. I don't want everything be frozen eternally."
Merida looked up to the sky. She hoped that Hiccup would hurry so the Ice Queen would be destroyed. The feeling of the magic barrier disappearing was also something she felt. Soon the sides would connect again but the fact that in the non magic side were mostly people without memories of magic – that would be bad. Even more people would be without faith in magic and it would weaken up the magical Guardians more – where ever they were.
The kingdom of Corona was finally giving up after putting out a fight for so long against the Witch Queens. They had met their worst opponent, the Queen of Ice who would freeze the kingdom. Who would want to dance and have fun when everything you worked for is dying around you? The crops, your garden and the animals are freezing so they decide to flee.
"Rapunzel, this isn't a good idea," Eugene tried to calm down his wife.
Their 3 year old son was warming up in front of a fireplace. Rapunzel looked over her shoulder and smiled to her husband, her green eyes sparkled and her middle back length brown hair waved as she turned around from looking out from the window.
"We can't give up Eugene. This day was about to come as we knew it and we're the last ones who are trying to keep some magic in the kingdom," Rapunzel sighed and touched his cheek.
They heard the soldiers shouting orders outside as the Ice Queen was trying to break through the walls. Her ice powers were crumbling the walls and only the fires inside were keeping her away now.
Rapunzel watched at her kingdom, the lands had frozen into the eternal ice from the prophecy. She could almost hear the cries of her people and she had no idea of how to make them feel happy. Happy in this hopeful situation.
Eugene's warm embrace comforted her, she buried her face into his chest.
"Rapunzel, we will fight back with everything we have if needed to," the voice belonged to Toothiana.
She turned around and smiled at the tooth fairy whose vibrant colors had faded away during the years, she had lost her ability to fly with most of her feathers and still she managed to be somewhat cheerful. Except on this day even Toothiana's bubbly personality was gone, the day everyone had been afraid of had come.
"Thank you Tooth but I don't think you can do much. You should run with the rest," Rapunzel had a faint smile.
"You know we can't. North has been sleeping for couple years so he won't die to aging. Sandy is a pile of sand that can't stay together and-," she hummed and took out a tiny grumpy looking rabbit from floor.
"We're out of magic mate. And the fact that people in Corona are losing hope is just making this worse!" Bunnymund groaned and tapped his tiny foot on Toothiana's hand.
"I'm sorry but there's not much hope left. The Ice Queen is--," Rapunzel started when a sudden blast sound interrupted her. Both she and her husband ran to their crying son and shut him between them into a loving embrace.
The castle wall broke with that enormous blast of ice powers and the guards screamed as their bodies were froze into ice sculptures. The Ice Queen grinned as she kept walking.
She waved her hands graciously and something that could have been beautiful, the ice which was like a piece of art itself turned into a deadly weapon of hers. Around her a crystal clear layer started to cover everything with mirror like surface.
The Ice Queen laughed deviously as she saw the running people freezing, their momentum pausing into that fearful state. The Queen and King of Corona froze into eternal embrace with their son. The Guardians lost their last chance to fight back to the Witch Queens as their bodies gave up, also getting stuck into the dream like state as they became statues in the crystallized landscape.
And above this all the king of nightmares was feeding from the misery, watching the scene where people were in panic and tried to run for nothing. Then everything became silent, there were no more cries or screaming as everyone was now part of Ice Queens painting of despair.
"Ah this was so easy and delightful," the Ice Queen laughed and headed back towards Arendelle.
On her way back she saw a strange sight rushing through the ice. She narrowed her eyes and saw a familiar looking reindeer pulling a carriage with three people. With a smirk she waved her hand in order to freeze them too but they kept dodging.
They got closer and closer, the Ice Queen saw them throwing something at her and when she shot it, a shattering sound of glass reached her. She screamed when something sucked her in and her world was spinning. It was like that damn portal which Jack had used before.
She found herself back in Arendelle's castle. And when she turned around she saw the portal spinning behind her, making awful sounds. After taking a step back the reindeer pulled sleigh flew out from the portal and she stared at the messy haired redhead who glared at her.
"How could you freeze Corona! Rapunzel was your cousin!" Merida shouted at the Ice Queen.
Ice Queen frowned and didn't respond, instead she prepared to shoot her with her powers. Then she realized that the braveous woman had some company with her.
"Anna?" The Ice Queen exhaled as strawberry blonde girl came out from the sleigh with her husband Kristoff.
"Elsa! I came, you don't have to continue this. This person isn't you!" Anna yelled desperately and shed tears.
