Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Ice Queen

The room remained silent as they stood off facing each other determining who would make the first move. Its wasn't long before Mathias' patience wore thin as he charged forward at amazing speed surprising the darked haired woman as he tackled her off the bed and onto the floor with a loud thud.

"Where is she?!" He demanded in anger but the stubborn woman just smiled carefree of her current situation as the room temperature began to steadily drop. Ember eyes met darker blue ones as Mathias flared through his nose in irritation, puffs of hot air blew down on her face.

"Oh you poor dear, too stubborn to face reality. I am now Elsa." She said as she swiped at his chest with her icy hand across Mathias' chest cutting his skin as he stumbled back in shock and pain. Her sadistic laugh caused him to look up as she stood up and he quickly made a mad dash toward the door and smashed through it without wasting time of opening it and moved out of the doorway as ice shards shot out of the room stabbing into the solid wall on the other side. Mathias panted as he looked at the ice in front of him before he leaned against the wall in relief knowing what would have happened if he didn't move fast enough. The guards started to appear from both hallways swords drawn ready to fight. Jonathan was in the lead of the other group and looked around trying to understand the situation.

"Where's the queen?" Jonathan asked worriedly as he seen the ice and his dear friend shooken up. Mathias looked at him but never answered him and he looked at where the ice came from to see a young woman standing in the room from what he could tell through the ice. He then looked back at Mathias and a certain thought came to him and he chuckled. The other guards looked at him in confusion along with Mathias.

"Your night didn't start as well as you hoped?" He joked a bit causing some of his men to snicker but after seeing Mathias' face they stopped.

"T-That is not her." He whispered making Jonathan and the guards look at him confused. More ice busted through the wall startling the guards as the moved for cover, the sadistic laugh in the room caught their attention.

"Mathias dear, come out and play i promise i'm just getting started. You want to know what has become of your Elsa, Mathias?" She asked Making Mathias tense as he peeked through ont of the gaps in the wall giving him perfect view of the woman. She seen his ember eyes and laughed as she lifted her icy hand and impaled her chest but no blood came out and this surprised him as she pulled her flesh apart revealing a light blue gem within her chest.

"This gem is now your precious Elsa, she is my source of power for now but it won't be till i absorb the life out of her and become what she was always destined to be. So if you want her, come get her! Make it all worthwhile!" She said as the wound she inflicted on herself healed concealing the blue gem of the real Elsa inside it. Mathias' breathing quickened as his eyes narrowed in a fierce determination glaring at his new target knowing that his objective is inside of the fraud.

"If she's your source of power then i'll just have to rip her out of you then!" He yelled out as he bashed through the ice in the doorway surprising the woman as he charged toward her with amazing speed but she still had enough time to move out of the way as he rushed passed her to a skidding halt. The room was small but that didn't stop the two as the fight continued inside the room leaving the guards wondering what going till Mathias rushed out of one of the holes in the wall followed by the darked haired woman as she froze the men by their feet before they could make a move on her in aiding Mathias. Mathias already injured in his right leg quickly turned around again and took a deep breath making the fake Elsa stop in her tracks. Her eyes widened when she saw his throat glow a bright blue and made a wall of ice in front of her as Mathias let loose his fiery assault destroying her wall in seconds burning her as she was knocked to the ground. Mathias panted as he looked at the woman on the floor relieved that it was over till he heard a slight chuckle as she stood back up, Half of her face was burnt along with her right shoulder and arm but it all began to heal shocking Mathias as he slowly backed away in horror.
