A Prince and A Princess on an Adventure

Chapter 88: A Prince and a Princess on an Adventure

The next couple of days passed without incident and seemed somewhat normal for a change. They knew it wouldn't last, for the Snow Queen was still out there. For the moment though, she had disappeared, but they remained vigilant, knowing that she was probably plotting something.

Snow decided that the following day, she would return to work. Regina almost insisted that she take more time, but Snow felt it was time since she had been gone a year and was essentially healed. She was anxious to return, even though Regina insisted that if Midas was serious about running against her for Mayor that he didn't have a snowball's chance in the Underworld of winning. Still, Snow felt it was time and was using her last day off to attend a mommy and me class with little Bobby.

Meanwhile, at the station, they were using the downtime to catch up on paperwork, while David had given Leo the day off to spend at the reserve with the animals.

Aladdin was still in the cell, refusing to talk and Elsa was helping with the filing, while recounting events she did remember.

Regina was having a little difficulty getting the memory potion to cooperate so they were left with trying to trigger Elsa's memory with other ways.

"So Anna was saved by an act of true love?" Emma asked. Elsa nodded.

"That's when I learned that love could thaw my frozen Kingdom. It was Anna's love that helped me get control," Elsa explained.

"And that Hans guy?" Emma asked.

"They tossed him in the brig of a ship bound for the Southern Isles to return him to his brothers," Elsa replied.

"Hans was from the Southern Isles?" David asked.

"Yes," she answered and he scoffed.

"That figures," David commented and they looked at him questioningly.

"He just sounds as bad as his father, King Francis," Charming explained.

"You met the King of the Southern Isles?" Elsa asked curiously.

"Snow and I had the great displeasure once. He kind of personifies creepy, old chauvinistic lecher," David said. Emma raised an eyebrow.

"Thirteen sons by seven different Queens, each younger than the last," he added. Elsa crinkled her nose.

"Gross," Emma commented.

"After that, I remember starting to plan Anna's wedding and finding my mother's diary," Elsa recalled sadly.

"And your sister left for the Enchanted Forest to find answers about what they were looking for?" Emma asked. She nodded.

"They were looking for a way to get rid of my powers," Elsa revealed.

"Oh..." Emma said awkwardly.

"Don't get me wrong, I loved my parents, but they feared me," Elsa said sadly.

"I'm sorry," Emma said. Elsa shook her head.

"Anyway, I pleaded with Anna not to go, but she's so stubborn and did anyway," Elsa recounted.

"But you remember her coming back?" David asked.

"Yes...but then it's all blank," Elsa answered in frustration.

"Hey...we'll figure this out," David promised, as he grabbed his jacket.

"Since it's quiet around here for once, I'm going to head home a little early. It's date night, after all," he said, as he started out.
