Chapter Six: A King's Arrival

Kristoff was nervous to say the least as he stood with Anna at the docks. Today was the day that he would propose to Anna, show her how much she means to him and today right now he was going to do it.

"Hey, you alright you look kinda pale." Anna asked in concern as she tried to reach for his forehead but kristoff was faster.

"I-I'm fine, Anna thanks for asking." Kristoff replied.

"Well here it goes." He thought as he began to talk.

"Anna we've been together for two years and i want to spend everyday of my life being with you. You're my world and no one could take the bond we share." He said as he got on one knee.

"K-Kristoff what are doing?" She asked while tears formed in her eyes.

"Princess Anna of Arendelle, will you marry me?" He asked and waited. Anna covered her mouth with her right hand as tears began to flow down her cheeks. Kristoff's worries quickly vanished when she tackled him and smothered him in kisses. When she stopped she looked into his eyes.

"Yes, yes i will." She said quietly and pressed her lips to his.

Their romantic moment was interrupted by a loud grumble that boomed throughout the area. Minutes later a loud roar boomed from the distance and the couple became fearful of what it was. some of the nearby guards stopped and looked in the distance and drawn out their swords. The villagers stopped what they were doing and stared in the distance. Anna and kristoff followed their gaze to the water they see the water rise and a shadowy object moving underneath it and it wasn't slowing down.

"W-what is that?" Anna asked Kristoff who was also wondering what it was but quickly noticed it was heading toward their direction.

"Anna run!" He yelled as he gripped her hand and they began to run as the mass crashed into the dock and still continued forward toward them. Kristoff spotted a small boat on the side and quickly got an idea.

"Anna jump on the boat!" He instructed as the both of them jumped into the boat on time as the mass passed by and stop right next to the boat.

The couple looked in awe as a man emerged from the water with a low rumble emanating from his throat. He slowly moved his right leg forward as he made a crackling noise as he continued forward. His body was littered with scars and he seemed focused on some else as he moved past their boat. They turned to who he was facing to see a man holding a crossbow.

"I-It's you how did you get here so quickly." The man asked fear evident in his voice. The scarred man answered with an ear splitting roar before he charged toward him. The other man didn't have time to react as he got slammed into a house and went through. Anna got up and jumped onto what was left of the dock and inspected the damage done by the mysterious man.

Meanwhile, Elsa was struggling to defend herself but there was so many men shooting arrows in her direction. The villagers were trying their best to help along with a few guards. She lost her footing and fell before an arrow hit her. As she tried to get up the wall behind her collapsed and a man fell through and to the ground as the bricks crushed him. Dust filled the area and she couldn't see a thing until foot stomped not far from her face and she quickly backed away to have a better view. Everyone was silent as they all stared at the figure that emerged from the dust and debris. He made a heavy step with his left leg and stared at everyone with his amber eyes until he unleashed a roar that boomed through the area scaring some of the villagers.

"Mathias help!" The girl screamed again. The man the girl calls Mathias looked in their direction and began to charge forward toward the girl and the two men. The Duke was frightened and immediately took action.
