Memories [OUAT/Helsa]

Surrender

Arendelle
Present Day

"He's an idiot!"

The blonde haired man nodded as he leaned against the desk, arms crossed over his chest. "Mm-hm."

"A total idiot!" The Princess exclaimed angrily as she paced back and forth in the Queen's study. "He's in charge of this kingdom, he is King after all, but what did he do? He has the guts to disappear!"

"You know, I have a great feeling that you would do exactly the same as he did to find Elsa." Kristoff pointed out as he watched his feisty wife. "Wouldn't you?"

"Of course! But I'm not the one that supposed to handle this kingdom!" Anna insisted, eyes glaring at the fire burning in the fireplace to warm the two up. "Arendelle is in high alert of war, Elsa disappeared to God knows where, we don't even know if she and the baby are alright... We need Hans."

Silence hung between the two, the air thick with the tension as both knew the kingdom were at lost after the disappearance of both their Queen and King.

A quiet snifle could not slip from notice, making the Mountain Man approached his beloved, wrapping his strong arm around her figure. "Hey, don't worry, everything is going to be alright. Elsa is a strong person, she could protect herself and her child. And we both know how persistence Hans could be, he will find her."

"I know, but..." Anna snifled again as she wiped the lone tear that has managed to roll down her cheek. "Elsa told me that I always have to consider every possibilities and if neither she nor Hans came back... I don't think that I could bring Arendelle into victory, I mean I'm just me."

"What do you mean you're 'just you'?" Kristoff asked, "Yes, you don't have ice powers and you're not an Admiral, but you're Anna. The feisty Princess capable of hitting a man in the face, with one punch, and sent him into the ocean. You sacrifice yourself for your sister even when you know your life is in great danger. There is no one out there that could do all that."

And though she thought that she could not do it, a small smile did appear on her face at her husband's words. "This kingdom was my Father's and then my sister's, I will protect it, no matter what."

"That is a little too much of optimism, don't you think?"

Both heads turned at the source of the voice, finding that one of Hans' brothers standing by the doorway, chuckling as apparently he was amused of what he just heard.

"How dare you come in here?!" The strawberry blonde haired Princess exclaimed as she marched forward, ready to struck the smug Prince on his face with her right jab if only she was not being held back by the bulky Ice Harvester. "This is my kingdom!"

"It won't be for long." Franz said as he rested his hand over the hilt of his sword. "It is such a wonder how Arendelle have stayed standing up all these years, the security of this place is awful."

Anger boiled inside of the Princess as she glared at her technically brother-in-law. "Shut up! You know nothing of Arendelle!"

"Maybe not all, but I know more than you would expect me to be." Franz said calmly, "Hans has provided me with what he knew during his first visit here, to witness that witch's coronation to be exact."

"Don't speak a word against my sister!"

"You have a death wish, coming all the way here." Kristoff said as he gritted his teeth, even though he wished to jab the smug royalty for his mockery against the Queen as much as his wife did, he kept holding her back.

But the Southern Isles Prince only chuckled in amusement. "Do I look like a fool to you? I, unlike my foolish brother, do not come alone."

And as soon as the words came out of his mouth, two of his brothers came into view while they drew out their swords. Apparently they had been waiting beside the doorway, out of sight, and listening to the exchange.

Franz looked at the husband and wife, cornered like preys with no proper weapons to fight. "I suggest you two to surrender."
