Elsa.

Returning to the ice palace in the Northern Mountains, Anna worries for her sister's well-being. Taking a seat on a wooden chair, Anna exhales a heavy quick breath.

"Anna, calm down," Kristoff had arrived an hour earlier with both Sven and Olaf, gladly. Kristoff crouches down and keeps a tight hold on his lover's arm. "It's bad for the baby."

They had made it official a few hours back before the attack. Anna was supposed to tell her sister about her pregnancy, that is until of course.

"I know, it's just that..." Trailing off, she looks to the balcony where Toothless had landed with two passengers aboard.

Anna jumps from her seat and rushes to them. No longer than a meter a part, Anna immediately engulfs her older sister into a hug.

"I'm glad you're safe." Anna sighs in relief.

"I'm glad you are too." Elsa replies within a second.

Hiccup walks over to the girls, bearing information that could enlighten them. "I told my crew to come here with what remains of your people for evacuation."

Elsa smiles, "thank you for that."

Hiccup returns it before walking back to Toothless to feed him some ripe berries he found on the way.

"Listen... Elsa," Anna nervously starts. She sends off a signalling glare to Kristoff who repays it with a nod. "I-I need to tell you something."

"Well, spill."

"I-I... uh, God, this is harder than I thought."

Elsa dislikes hesitation, and so she groans. "Anna-"

"You're gonna be an aunt!!!"

Elsa winces, until she looks down upon her sister's small baby bump. "You're pregnant?"

Anna nervously bobs her head up and down, a faint grin plastered across her face.

"That's great!" The queen chuckles. "Congratulations. I'm so happy for you."

Hearing the conversation from a distance, Hiccup smiles secretly. He's glad about Anna's expectancy too, knowing Elsa was.

"If it's a boy, what's gonna be his name?"

Anna ponders for a moment, momentarily running her hand on her belly. "I was thinking about Spencer or Chris or Luke or anything really!"

"And if it's a girl?"

"A girl? Well, still undecided."

Seeing the overwhelming excitement in her sea green eyes, Elsa places a light hand on Anna's shoulder. "Let's wait for a few months. Maybe we'll get more ideas on what the little one's name is gonna be."

Anna lets out a small comforting smile. "Alright."

Hiccup.
