When Snowflakes Fall

Running Wolves

⚠️TW.

In the forest just outside of Arendelle, Kristoff and Sven were making their way back towards the castle after a long day of hard work delivering ice.

Kristoff sighed deeply, leaning back in his sled. Looking up at the soft falling snow from the skies. Thinking about seeing Anna and maybe even snuggle by the fire later that evening with her. Everything seemed so peaceful out here in the forest, he thought. That's until Sven suddenly stopped in his tracks. Twitching his ears and started looking around nervously.

"Sven? What's the matter boy?" Kristoff asked.
A sudden gust of harsh wind blew into their faces. Clouds were starting to stir and become dark. "Storms coming, we have to move, Come on Sven!" Exclaimed Kristoff, flicking the reins as Sven quickly agreed and started running his way through the wind and snow, pulling the sled from behind him.

As they continued on getting closer to Arenelle Kristoff had felt something was off like someone or something was watching them. The sound of barking wolves ran by within the shadows of the forest, however luckily for Kristoff and Sven the wolves were ignoring them by running in the opposite direction not bothering to chase or attack them. "The storm must be scaring them off." Kristoff thought aloud.

They continued moving forward, almost back onto Arendelle grounds. Until a horrifying, unsettling scream came out from the distances. Along with the sound of howling wolves.

"What was that!?". Kristoff yelled looking around. "Wait Spen, it sounds like someone is in trouble. "We have to go back!" He exclaimed.

Spen gave an unsure look. Home was only just around the bend but he had to trust Kristoff, so they rode back to the unsettling scream and howling.

Somewhere else in the forest, not far off into the forest you were hurt badly. But you ran as fast as possible, far as your tired legs could carry you. To get away, from a giant wolf along with smaller wolves chasing and hunting you down. Until you bumped into something, or more like someone. You fell into the snow covered ground. Looking up to a tall, scary man named Talon.

"You've gone far enough y/n!" Talon growled. As The wolves begin to surround you and him in a circle. And the giant wolf stared you down circling within the circle of wolves.

There's no escape now. You thought.

"Please I beg you! I don't want to die." You exclaimed in a frightened tone.

"You wouldn't have to. Die, or, get hurt, if you just simply followed my rules." Talon said in a soft, yet evil tone.

The nerve of this person to say such a thing. You thought. "Your rules!?" You questioned back.

Talon shook his head. "Oh I've tried so hard! To make you feel comfortable in my own home. But you just couldn't be that good little fiancé that was to sit there looking pretty and love me, respect me, be the one trust me, so I could trust you." The Talon protested.

You look at him in disbelieve and stood up and pushed him back with the little strength you had left.. "Trust you!? Maybe at first!  When you were actually nice to me! But I now know there was no trust to begin with. You have someone else in your bed almost every night. You hurt me when you're drunk at your parties and humiliate me in front of your guests. I tried to be nice towards you, build any trust between us, but all you ever do is slap me in the face when I dare even speak!"

"I-" he reached out his hand as he was going to touch your shoulder.

"No!" You slap his hand away and step back, as the wolves became reckless in the background. "And now, you send your wolves to hunt me down when I tried to run from the monster who lives the house. Why bother? If you never loved me?!" You cried in anger. "You are nothing but a monster who controls my life." You start to breathed heavily as your emotions spiral. "Just get rid of me to stop my torment. It would be better for the both of us, better for me, than living another second seeing your disgraceful face!" You, lower voice for a second the storm was slowly becoming stronger. "I will never ever be your so-called perfect image. I will never be yours!" And at that second you gave it your all to fight him. As he too did fought off you.

Finally after all these years, you finally said everything you wanted to say to the one whom you bound by a forced relationship with. But you knew it wasn't going to be enough.

"[y/n] Stop! lets talk about this!" Talon took a step back. As did you.

"Look, I'm sorry. I do really care for you. Please... just come back with me and I'll make it up to you." Talon man tried to sound sympathetic.

"No! I had enough of your mind games. Sorry... but it won't change anything. You won't change back, to someone I once knew. If anything you're gone too far this time." You growled.

Talon's face went from sad to complete anger.
"No. It seems you're the one who's gone too far this time." He said in a low evil tone. Then he snapped his fingers and allowed the wolves to attack you. After they did you fell to the ground, losing more blood than before. The wolves were about to finish you off until the man spoke with a saddened tone.

"Stop!" Talon yelled. "They had enough. Let them freeze out here. And let's go home." He said turning his back on your unconscious body in the snow. As the wolves followed behind him with their heads all laid low.

Just moments later after the Talon and his wolves were out of sight. Kistoff and Spen only saw the end of what happened, they remained hidden until it was all clear. Then they walked towards you. Seeing you covered in blood, now freezing within the snow.

"We have to help them!" Kistoff exclaimed while trying to find a blanket to wrap you up in. He walked up to you and checked to see if you were alive. Luckily you were but only just.

"Hang in there. I got you, you're going to be ok." Kristoff said in worry as he lifted your unconscious body with the blanket and placed you securely in the back of the slay. He jumped into the front and told Spen to get getty up. And headed straight for the castle.
