Azalea stood by the door of her parents guest room in the castle. Tears in her eyes as her mom stood over her brother, sprinkling something over him. Some kind of pollen potion. "Will the spell fix him?" She asked as her father walked over to his daughter from down the hall, looking exhausted. "Your mother is one of the best Flower enchantresses to ever live, I have full faith in her." He said picking her up. Azalea looked at her brother, his skin ice cold. "I'm sorry, I just wanted to help Elsa." The child said looking up at her father. "I know you had good intentions...but you should have listened to us." Her father said, sounding disappointed. Tears welled up in Azalea's eyes again and her father hugged her to his chest. "This is partially our own fault." Azalea's father turned to see the queen standing behind him. "How is the boy?" She asked. "My wife is working her magic, I'm sure he will be well. And none of this is you or your daughters fault." Azalea's dad said with a frown. "I have sheltered my eldest child, she is so alone. I'm surprised she hasn't done something like this earlier...and you-" the queen said looking to Azalea "You just wanted to give my daughter a friend, how can I be mad at that?" The child frowned and tugged on her flower crown, one of the shy child's many ticks. "So where does this put us? We still want to help you and -" The queen held her hand up, silencing Azalea's dad. "You and your family will be gone by tomorrow. We came to you for help to get rid of the curse on our daughter, and you keep trying to tell us that this magic in her isn't evil? After she did this to your own son? I'm sorry, but we are going to look in other places for the solution we need. You will get payed for your time here...I hope your son is okay." She said before walking down the hallway, leaving us. "So I won't see Anna or Elsa again?" Azalea asked looking up to her dad. "Not right now...we need to tell your mother - and start packing." He sat Azalea down on her own two feet and walked into the room where Alex and their mom were and Azalea's heart broke. "I'm so sorry Elsa...Anna..." She whispered, before following her dad into the room to see her brother.

"I'm sorry...Elsa, Anna." Azalea gasped, feeling her head slip, she woke herself up just before her head hit the book she was reading on ice potions from Belle's library. "Talking in your sleep I see," David said walking up behind her. Azalea looked up from the potion table that she had been sitting at for the past two days, blushing. Marian was still frozen on the couch, but with her heart outside her chest she was safe from falling victim to the spell. "I can't stop looking, Robin's family is counting on me, and if I can cure Marian then Elsa will be in less trouble then she's already in." The teen said as she stood up to stretch, her body stiff. "Your always doing this, you get it from me. Working to hard, pushing yourself." David said pulling his daughter away from the potion table she had been at for days. "Then you understand right? That I can't stop until I do something." Azalea said, trying to not pout as her father pulled her away. "I get it, or the feeling, but what you don't seem to get is that you can't perform the magic if you can't even stay awake while reading." David said folding his arms. "Fine, I'll take a nap on the chair. Even drink some coffee." She said pointing to the love seat beside the fireplace. David frowned and Azalea shrugged her shoulders. "What? It's a really nice chair. Cushioned and all!" She said. "No, your mom and I already talked about it. Your coming home." Azalea frowned. "Dad please, just let me finish out today and I'll come home to sleep." The teen begged, but David had stopped. He looked a bit shocked at Azalea. "What?" She asked him, confused by his sudden attitude change. "You-you called me dad." He said. The teen blushed at the realization. "Well, I mean - yea. Stop making a big deal of it." Azalea said turning to hide her embarrassment. David smiled. "Okay, be home by six for dinner. Please, your mom and I worry about you. It's our job." He said kissing her forehead. "And this is my job, as Flower Enchantress. And a good friend...but I'll be home by six, promise." Azalea said before her dad left. Her cheeks felt hot, it had been a slip of the mouth really, calling him dad. But she couldn't help the smile at his reaction. She turned back to the table and thought back to the dream she had. "What was it mom? What were you putting over Alex to cure him?" The teen asked herself, remembering her dream from earlier. Her mother had been sprinkling some type of pollen over her brothers frozen body. She tried to remember, trying to find a way to fix Marian.
