Frozen Heart

For the First Time in Forever

Three years later...

The day of Elsworth's coronation had arrived, allowing for the gates of Arendelle to be open. A dock master greeted those who came off the ship with a warm, "Welcome to Arendelle!"

"Ah, merci, Monsieur," the French Dignitary responded as he stepped onto the dock.

"Watch your step, please. The gates will be opening soon."

Off to the side, a woman attempted to put a jacket on a squirming, whining boy. "Why do I have to wear this?" he complained with a pout.

"Because the king has come of age! It's Coronation Day!" she responded excitedly.

"That's not my fault."

The boy who once hung out with the ice harvesters, now grown, hung a carrot around the now-large reindeer. "Whaddya want, Sven?"

"Gimme a snack," he responded for the reindeer in a lower voice.

"What's the magic word?"

"Please?"

He gave him the carrot, shaking his head when Sven took the whole carrot. "Ah ah ah ah. Share."

He spat out half of it, the man taking a bite out of the spit covered half.

A couple excitedly walked by the blond, the husband chattering away. "I can't believe they're finally opening up the gates!"

"And for a whole day, too! Faster, Persi!" She dragged him along, Persi almost tripping over his feet, revealing an old man with glasses and a glorious mustache behind them.

"Ah, Arendelle. Our most mysterious trade partner. Open those gates so I may unlock your secrets and exploit your riches." Realizing he was being a bit too loud, he looked around nervously. "Did I say that out loud?"

Ahead were two more dignitaries, one Irish and one Spanish, discussing the coronation.

"Oh, me sore eyes can't wait to see the king and princess. I bet they're absolutely lovely."

"I bet they are wonderful."

Anna let out another loud snore, her hair disheveled and stuck to the drool coming out of her opened mouth.

Y/n peeked up from behind her, whispering, "Anna. Psst! Anna!"

"Huh...?"

"Princess Anna of Arendelle!"

She sat up, eyes still half closed, her hair frizzed everywhere. She let out a cough. "Yeah...?" She removed the piece of hair from her mouth, wiping it. Beginning to nod off again, she jerked herself up. "Who is it?"

"Still me, dumb-dumb. C'mon, we don't have all day!" She grabbed the princess' shoulders and began to shake her to wake her, not succeeding at all. "We need to get ready!"

"Of course..." She stretched, her eyes still closed. "Ready for what?"

"Did you seriously forget?" She tapped her foot impatiently. "Your brother's coronation?"

"My brother's...cornoration..." Her eyes slowly opened, landing on the dress that Y/n had picked out the night before. Eyes flying wide now, she whispered, "It's coronation day."

"No, did you just figure that out?" Y/n rolled her eyes, then left to patiently wait for Anna to finish changing.
