Fairies in Arendelle

Ch. 1 Awakening

Please note- this is actually my first fan fiction ever. I'm sorry if anyone is disappointed or upset, as I'm still getting used to writing as a pre-established set of characters. Constructive criticism is asked for and a review is appreciated.

A bright light, the feeling as if he was dissolving, and then, darkness.

"Ow!" Natsu rose shakily to his feet, his head throbbing. Where was he? He glanced around.

"Jeez, I don't remember going to sleep in the mountains. Weird… hey, where's Happy?" He stumbled around, searching through the snow that had accumulated around his sleeping place, high in a range of unfamiliar mountains. He quickly came across a cat-shaped lump in the snow and immediately began to dig. He had soon unearthed the little blue cat, who, with the sudden light and lack of cold, groggily woke."C'mon Natsu, can't we start training for the S-class exam tomorrow? I'm still worn out from yesterday!" The little cat complained. Slowly, the cat rose to his feet, but his eyes shot open when he realized that they were no longer in the worn out house that he and Natsu shared.

"Natsu, where are we?"

"I dunno." Natsu responded casually. " Sure looks cool though."

"Yeah…"

Suddenly, a shadow fell over them. They looked up, and standing on an outcrop above them stood a woman wearing heavy steel armor with a bronze cross embezzled on its left half. She stood straight and proud, her long scarlet hair blowing in the cold mountain wind.

"Erza!"Happy cried excitedly.

"Hey, what'r you doing here?" Natsu asked.

"I… I do not know." She replied, a worried look on her face. "Do either of you know this place?"

Natsu "Nope."

Happy "Uh- uh."

"Well, if you two are here, there is a good chance that Lucy and the others are as well." Erza turned and jumped down from the ledge, landing next to Natsu.

"We should begin to descend and see if we encounter anyone else."

"Aye sir!" They replied in unison.

They descended the mountain slowly, taking in the wonder of the new world around them. The mountains were beautiful, with shining white snow capping the great stone mammoths, slowly fading towards the bottom, and eventually breaking for a huge forest of evergreens at the bottoms. After just a few minutes of walking however, they spotted a rectangular brown shape standing in stark contrast to the snow a few feet below them. The wood rotated slowly, revealing itself to be an ancient grandfather clock, and in its cabinet crouched a thin blonde girl wearing a white and blue shirt with a short blue skirt, with a leather case bulging with golden and silver keys resting on her hip.

"Lucy!" Yelled Natsu.

"Natsu, what did you do this time! , she exclaims." The clock replied. "Oh, I'm very sorry dear, but our time is up!" And with that, the clock vanished in a puff of white smoke, leaving Lucy shivering in the cold mountain snow.

"I hate it when he does that!" She cried, wrapping her arms around herself in a futile attempt to keep warm.

"There you guys are!" They heard from further down the slope. A thin man with black hair stepped out from behind a boulder, wearing nothing but a pair of pants.

"Gray!"

"Juvia is here too!" Said a thin, pale woman with curled blue hair, who had just stepped out from behind the same boulder as Gray.

Erza stepped up from behind Natsu. "Now that everyone is here, does anyone have any idea where we are?"

"Somewhere ccccccold." Shivered Lucy. "CCCcan't we find someplace warm before we tttttalk?"

"Fine, let us continue our descent immediately." Commanded Erza.

_In Arendelle

It had been a few weeks since what the people had dubbed the Eternal Winter, and things had more or less returned to normal, at least for most of the small city. In the castle however, things were slightly different. Elsa, queen of Arendelle, stood by the window of her room in the castle, gazing out into the mountains, a worried look on her face. She turned as she suddenly heard the door open behind her.

"Hey Elsa, did you see that strange light in the mountains a few minutes ago?" Asked the bright, cheery voice belonging to her younger sister, Anna. "Was that you?"

"No, at least I don't THINK it was me," replied Elsa, a look of worry on her face.

"Well, whatever, but whatever it was, it sure was cool! Hey do you think we could go and maybe see what it was? Kristoff could take us! Oh! I know! We can have a picnic up in the northern forest tomorrow, just you, me, Kristoff, Sven, and Olaf!"

"I'm not so sure that that's a good idea," continued Elsa.

"Oh, yeah, maybe we shouldn't invite Olaf. I mean, he's cute and all, but he just talks WAY too much!"

"That's not what I meant Anna!" Cried Elsa, a look of desperation crossing her face.

"Oh. Ok. Kristoff isn't even in town anyway. Sorry for bothering you Elsa." Anna turned and left, closing the door softly behind her. "Anna, wait, don't go." Whispered Elsa. It wasn't the picnic that had upset her, it wasn't even Anna's rambling. It was the fear that maybe she had lost control of her powers again, without even feeling it. No, she thought to herself, no. That wasn't what happened. And so, with a look of determination on her face, she rushed out of her room to the kitchen to get a cup of hot cocoa for Anna. She would make it right. She would not be afraid anymore.
