Frozen: A Vow to Keep (Elsa x Male Reader)

Chapter 2: All for a Sword

You prepare yourself for the game. During your time roaming Arendelle you have found some suitable alley ways that could be used to escape the guards. You're used to observing your surroundings and finding ways to escape or to place a trap. It was one of your training sessions – which you remember quite clearly – that thought you the importance of it.

It was a warm day. The sun was shining so bright that looking anywhere above your eye line would blind you. You were with three other kids. You were all around seven or eight years old. You all looked the exact same, aside from your physical differences. You were all dressed in the same tattered grey garbs, your hair was barely touching your ears and not far down you neck. It was obvious you all came together. Your master wanted to teach you about your surroundings in an unfamiliar area. He brought you to a distant city and sat you at a bench.

"You see all these people walking around the city? Go ahead, take a second to look at them."

You scanned the area. They were all simple people going about their day. Some had tortured their kids by taking them out shopping when they wanted to play. Some kids were actually playing with their friends. Others were just people taking a stroll. You saw nothing abnormal.

"What do you all see?" The Master asks.

"People, master. Men, women and children," one of your fellow students responds.

"You are seeing with your eyes, Zander. Use your other senses. What do you hear? What do you smell?"

You breathe in and close your eyes. You try to use your other senses to see what is around you. You smell too many things: bread, flowers, perfumes, and fire. It's too much to pick apart. You try to use your ears, but that doesn't end well. All constant chatting drowns each other out. You can't focus on a specific one.

Your master notices your focused state. You are the only one trying to expand your horizon.

"(Y/N)!" He calls out.

Your eyes burst open, "Yes master?"

"You were on the right track, but I see you were having trouble. It showed on your face."

You nod in disappointment. He walks up to you and gives you his hand.

"Well, you caught what I was trying to teach you. So you'll be our victim today."

"What do you mean, victim?"

The Master chuckles, "We're going to play a game you kids like to play back at the temple. I believe you called it, 'catch me if you can!'"

All the children smile but attempt to contain their amusement. They always loved this game, especially after an intense training day.

"You will be the one running, we will try and catch you."

"Even you, Master?"

"Even me," he smiles.

You are worried at first but then you smile with the thought of beating your Master. You nod in excitement. He chuckles then stands up straight.
