Alison sat on the floor, crossing her legs. She held out her hands as the troll took them in his.

"It's getting worse." she sighed, "I... I don't know what to do anymore, Grand Pabbie."

"You will learn." he assured, "These things take time. You-" he was cut off as flames erupted within the girl's hands, "You can do it." he finished. One of his rocky hands came to cover one of the flames, quickly ceasing its existence - he then moved on to the other.

"Sorry." she muttered, feeling the heat die down.

He shook his head, "It's quite alright. It isn't your fault." he released the girl's hands, stepping back.

She couldn't stop the frown from appearing on her face, "I'm tired." she stated, "I'm tired of all of this."

"Alison." he said, sternly, "Being alone is not the key to all of this."

Grand Pabbie had told Alison about Elsa's case. About how she kept herself locked away for years and years. And how it never solved anything. Being alone effectively made her lose control all together.

"You should go to Arendelle."

"Not going to happen." she immediately replied.

She had told Olaf a few days ago that she wanted to go to Arendelle, Definitely not because she wanted to see Elsa everyday, but she was still having second thoughts about everything. All she could think about was how fire melts ice. They aren't a good combo. Arendelle already had enough on their place because of ice powers - adding fire powers to the mix could only worsen things.

At least if something was frozen, it could be thawed.

Fire was a different story.

"You need to embrace what you have." Grand Pabbie said, "Yes. Your powers contain great danger. But they also contain beauty. This is not a curse. This is a blessing."

"It doesn't feel like one." Alison said, putting her head on her hands. She felt the heat rise slowly in her palms and onto her forehead. She once again felt the anger and frustration build up, her hands were getting hotter and hotter by the second. Finally, she removed her hands from her head - not wanting a flame to burn and scar her face.

"You mustn't lose hope." the troll said, "Getting angry only causes more issues."

She clenched her eyes as her hands held on tight to the grass by her sides.

Grand Pabbie paid no attention to the fires that had started on the ground, "I've requested for someone to take you to Arendelle."

"What?!" she exclaimed, the fires suddenly grew in height.

With a wave of his hand, the flames disappeared, "He doesn't know about your powers... And I won't tell him. I have simply suggested he take care of you whilst you're in Arendelle. Telling people about your powers... That's on your terms."

Standing up, Alison shook her head, "No... No, no, no. I-I can't go to Arendelle." Even though she really wanted to.

"You can, and you will." he replied, "I won't take 'no' for an answer. He will arrive shortly."

He continued on about how this would be good for her.

"Come on, Sven." Kristoff said, leaning back in his seat in the sleigh, "Grand Pabbie doesn't like to be kept waiting."
