Love Between Ice

The Coming Together

Anna's P.O.V.

Weeks had passed and Elsa still hasn't come out of her room. I started getting worried and lonely. Although Phoenix is still here, I feel that Elsa has been giving me the silent treatment again. Surely I couldn't have done anything wrong. So I decided to knock on her door one last time. But this time I wouldn't be the one convincing her to come out.

Phoenix gently knocked on her door.

"Go away, Anna!" Elsa responded in a shaky voice. It had been only a few months since she said that to me last time. But it brought me great grief and pain. Phoenix slowly opened the door and walked in.

Elsa's P.O.V.

I had been disheartened for weeks and wondering why Jack had just thrown me away. I knew no one was going to lift my spirits. But even then, Phoenix came in and wanted to try. When I see her looking around, I realized what I had made during the past week. A blizzard. I am truly a monster. I couldn't stop this blizzard from forming and now it was getting out of control.

"Please. Just stay away from me!" I warned Phoenix. I didn't want her to get any closer. I didn't want her to get hurt.

"Elsa. It's fine. I promise." Her words sounded reassuring even in the toughest situation. Even then I retaliated. But this time, these words weren't my intention.

"You have to go. NOW! I don't want you here! Can't you see I'm in distress?" I quickly covered my mouth after and opened my eyes wide. The blizzard just kept getting stronger. Those weren't my words and they had just come out of my mouth. Phoenix was looking at me trying to solve this mystery.

"Phoenix. You have to go! Now!" I meant it this time. I was too scared, to frightened. She had to go.

"No. I'm not leaving without you Elsa."

"Yes you are." With my hands I formed an ice barrier and moved toward her. "I'm sorry, Phoenix." I whispered to myself. As soon as she was outside, I felt a strange laughter boil inside me wanting to come out. My mouth had a mind of its own and could do absolutely nothing to stop it. I was getting scared and began shaking.

"You have no power over me! Hahahahaha!" Again these weren't my words. Who had control of my mind? And why were they doing it? One of those questions had an answer. A very definite answer. It was for fear. Then I remembered:

I'm there when you're scared. I'm there when you're frightened. I'm there when you're terrified.

It was Pitch.

My room was just an avalanche waiting to happen. The blizzard just kept growing. And I just kept getting controlled.

"Phoenix! Anna!" It was like war within me. I didn't know what to do. I roughly moved my hands through my hair thinking. "You won't get away with this." "Aagh!" I felt deep pain. I just wanted to let them in. But my hands suggested otherwise. "You don't want to let them in. Don't let them see the monster you ARE!" I heard my door banging from the outside.

"ELSA! ELSA! Let us in! We can help you!"

"STAY AWAY!" But the banging continued.

"Elsa!"

"Help me . . ."
