This is an adventure story about love, friendship and family. It is mainly Kristelsa, however many other relationships will be involved
I don't own anything related to Frozen, Disney or pretty much anything...
Since these characters are from disney I will abstain from making them curse or enter in too intimate moments so be warned. They might also break into songs (Most of the songs will be from other disney movies, some will be from other movies and some will be non-movie song. I own none of them).
Alright, this is the final chapter of the story, I will write an epilogue but I can't tell how far in the future that will be. Thanks for reading the story this far and I hope you've liked it, I tried to do this ending sort of disney-esque and I'm not sure if I did it but at least I'm satisfied.
_Thawed Hearts or Happily ever After_
Elsa gripped Kristoff's body tightly, a soft sob escaped her lips
The group of royals stood in silent disbelief staring at the queen as she held the ice harvester's body. Large tears threatened to fall from Anna's eyes, forcing the princess to bury her face on Adam who now stood at her side
"There must be something we can do…-" mumbled Hans with frustration, he looked at the mourning group of fairies "-Isn't there some other way to save him? Maybe using some indirect way to heal him?"
Before the fairies could answer a fuse lighted in Eugene's head "Mother Sweetsea- I mean- Fauna! You use to tell me that your sister was able to make the most beautiful flowers of the world, were you talking about magic? Is it possible that one of you can grow any flower of the world?!"
The three fairies looked at the prince "You're thinking about the legendary golden flower, aren't you?" asked Flora, catching Rapunzel's attention
Eugene nodded
Flora's features saddened "I would my dear, I really would, but the flower's magic precedes me… and since I never saw the flower in my life I can't make it, I would need some sort of connection to the legendary flower… to understand it's magic..."
"What if one of us has seen it? Can you make that connection through our memory?" the prince asked eagerly
Flora's face lit up "Have you seen it!? Then maybe- maybe there's a chance!"
Rapunzel turned to the fairy "The magic of the flower saved my mother when I was born, as a result I inherited the power of the flower" said the princess, the three fairies rushed to Rapunzel's side
"Then think about that power, show us how it felt, concentrate on your memories" begged Flora, placing her wand against Rapunzel's forehead and tightly closing her eyes, Rapunzel closed her eyes as well and focused her thoughts on the magic she used to have. She thought about when she saved Eugene. She thought about how much she wanted to save his life. How it felt when she desperately tried to heal him after he had cut her hair.
Before the brunette princess noticed the fairy had turned to her sisters "With me now, I'll need all your strength if I'm going to try this" she said resolutely
"Are you going to do something to save him?- Can you actually summon the legendary golden flower?" asked Adam, Anna raised her head at his words
The young princess looked at the fairies "Y-you can do something a-about this?" she asked fighting her sobs
Flora nodded reluctantly "I'll do my best, that's all I can promise-" the fairy took a deep breath "-I'm going to need earth, somewhere to grow the flower" she instructed looking around for a planter.
Eric approached the group "I always carry a small bag of earth to the sea with me, as a lucky charm-" the prince placed a small bag on the floor and opened it "-Is this amount enough?"
The red fairy nodded "That'll do, thank you-" the fairy rose her wand "-Now girls"
Flora closed her eyes and a small light lit on the point of her wand. Fauna and Merryweather pointed their wands towards the little light, the magic of their wands gently floated towards the light.
The three fairies focused all their power in the ball of light and after a minute Flora finally opened her eyes "This is it" she said with a weak voice
The fairy pointed the wand to the small bag of earth and the little light floated towards the bag, once they came into contact a fully grown beautiful golden flower sprouted from the earth
Everyone turned to the flower excepting Elsa
"Is that the flower?" asked Anna
"Yeah, that's it!-" confirmed Rapunzel "-Flora you did it!" the princess looked at the fairy and noticed the three fairies sleeping in the corner of the room
"They used all their energy in this flower" commented Charming
Adam reached for the flower "Then we've got to hurry, we still need to save him"
"Blondie, Do you know how to use the flower's power?" asked Eugene
Rapunzel shook her head "I've never seen the flower before, I know the song to activate it's power… I guess we'll just have to place the flower on the wound and see if that works"
"I know how to use it, I read it in a book once-" said Adam and he turned to Anna "-First we need a catalyst to cover the wound -water should do just fine-, then place the flower and do the enchantment. Anna, I need you to ask Elsa to cover Kristoff's wound with a very thin layer of ice"
The princess nodded and rushed to kneel beside her older sister-
"Elsa?" she called out softly, the princess focused her eyes on the queen, avoiding looking at Kristoff
"He's c-cold Anna" Elsa mumbled weakly, fighting against her sobs
The princess took a deep breath and looked at her fallen friend. Kristoff was pale and his body didn't move at all, the huge wound on his chest almost made the princess cry.
Anna placed her hand on Elsa's back "Elsa we can still save him, but we'll need your help"
The queen weakly shook her head "We can't Anna, you saw it in our vision… there's nothing we can do"
"We can still try… they found a way of healing him" insisted the youngest
Elsa stubbornly shook her head "He's already gone Anna"
Anna took a deep breath and looked at Kristoff again "H-hey… um- in the vision… Did you actually see him die?" she asked
"Yes" replied the queen dryly
"Did you?-" insisted the princess, grabbing Elsa's hand "-'Cause I woke up when he was struck down by the fireball"
The queen remained in silence for a moment "I saw it, I saw him pass away before my eyes"
"Did you positively saw him dead or did you just assumed that because he closed his eyes?" asked the princess
Elsa doubted for an instant and she could feel how a tiny gleam of hope sprouted inside her; Anna was right, she had never actually seen him dead, maybe there was still hope left for her ice harvester. The queen swallowed her sadness and fought her helpless sobbing "What must I do?" she asked her sister
Anna smiled at her "You have to create a very thin layer of ice on his wound, so we can use that as a catalyst for the flower's magic"
Elsa didn't bother in asking about the flower her sister talked about and simply placed her hand on her boyfriend's wound and covered it with a very thin layer of ice
Rapunzel joined the two sisters beside the body of Kristoff and gently placed the flower on the ice "Alright now you have to activate the magic of the flower, I know the song that can do that, but if we're going to bring Kristoff back then it's important that you two join me too, focus all your love for him into this song, okay?" explained the brunette princess looking at the two sisters
Anna and Elsa nodded
"Alright, follow my lead" with a deep breath Rapunzel began singing:
Flower gleam and glow,
Let your power shine,
Make the clock reverse,
Bring back what once was mine.
The two sisters closely followed the song
Heal what has been hurt,
Change the fate's design,
Save what has been lost,
Bring back what once was mine.
"Now you have to do it, remember to put all your heart into this song" instructed Rapunzel
Anna and Elsa shared a look and closing their eyes they repeated the spell:
Flower gleam and glow,
Let your power shine,
Make the clock reverse,
Bring back what once was mine.
Tears began falling from their eyes as they wished, hoped for Kristoff to come back
In that moment the ice layer started to gleam with a bright golden colour
Heal what has been hurt,
Change the fate's design,
Save what has been lost,
Bring back what once was mine.
What once was mine.
The ice harvester suddenly took a deep breath, making the two sisters jump with surprise
"He's breathing!-" exclaimed Anna turning to the group of royals, the princess jumped to her feet and hugged Adam "-I can't believe he's alive!" she celebrated with delight
Elsa remained by the ice harvester's side, the queen looked at Kristoff's gentle breathing with utter disbelief before she bursted into tears of joy, burying her face on his -now healed- chest and weeping as she heard his heart beating again.
The ice harvester was taken to Swendell for a health check up. He had been successfully saved and his wound was now just a small scar on his chest however he remained unconscious for the next two days.
Elsa sat beside him, the queen had arrived to Swendell that morning, after all, they had many issues to discuss with the -previously possessed- king of Weselton after Decidere's defeat.
The royals had agreed in helping rebuild the city and the king of Weselton was not blamed for his actions during the time he had been possessed, the soldiers of both sides that had been captured were immediately released after the war and peace was struck between the kingdoms.
Kristoff opened his eyes slowly, he immediately noticed Elsa at his side, but the queen had her eyes lost in a book and didn't to notice him.
The ice harvester tried to remember what had happened but he could only recall that he faded out leaving his sobbing queen behind, he was pretty sure he was about to die but it seemed like he had been saved somehow
He stared at Elsa for a moment; the queen was completely immersed in her book, her eyes carefully following the lines, her brows slightly frowned and her mouth relaxed just enough to form a small pout, he smiled-
"You look adorable"
The queen's gaze swiftly jumped from the book to her boyfriend, their eyes locked for a moment before a smile crept to her lips. She placed the book on the table at the side of his bed and leaned in to kiss his lips
The queen parted away before he could react, she had a wide smiled in her face and her eyes were intensely looking at him "Welcome back Kristoff, you gave us a huge scare back there"
Kristoff smiled sheepishly "I'm sorry Snowflake"
Elsa's features changed to a gentle but scolding face "I almost lost you Kristoff, do you have any idea how scared I was?"
His gaze saddened "I know… I'm sorry-" he apologised softly and reached for her hand "-But I'm here now… and I'll never leave you again, I mean it this time"
"I know you will" she mumbled as she moved closer to him
Kristoff reached for her face and pulled her closer, their lips met passionately. Elsa unconsciously sat on the bed, placing her hand on his chest for support, Kristoff's hand gently moved from her cheek to her hair, he pulled her closer, deepening their kiss even further.
The couple finally parted away, both panted for breath and had a smile on their face "Wow…" was the only thing the ice harvester could say
The queen chuckled "I think I'm finally getting better at it" she informed with a confident smile
"Your kisses are always perfect to me though" he reassured her making her giggle and pulling her into another kiss.
"Kristoff Bjorgman!" the princess of Arendelle ran towards the ice harvester, a furious glare was fixed on her face as she approached the clueless man with long stomps
Kristoff shivered at the anger in her tone "Elsa - Help" he pleaded just as the princess closed up to him
Elsa only laughed lightheartedly as the ice harvester was pummelled by her sister
"You Idiot! You promised me you wouldn't do that! Stupid reindeer-brain! Elsa almost died of grief! I'll kill you myself for being such an idiot!" the princess ranted as she smacked Kristoff time and time again
Kristoff only apologised and tried to cover his face as best as he could until the princess stopped
"Anna-" Called a voice, the trio turned to find prince Adam standing at the end of the hallway
The princess face lit up at the sight of the prince "Are you two going to see Cindy and Charming?" she asked
"Yeah" said Elsa
"Would you two wait here?"
"Sure" said Kristoff
The princess smiled and swiftly rushed towards the man "I thought you said you wouldn't arrive until nightfall"
"Yeah about that… turns out I'll have to go back to Rosidae now" he said with a sad smile
Anna frowned "Why are you leaving so soon?"
"I have to take my people back, I promised them we would go back home as soon as this was over-" explained Adam "-But I'd like to see you again as soon as I can… if that's okay with you of course"
"Of course we are, you still haven't showed me your castle, and I really want to show you Arendelle, and you said you'd take me to France too… I'm really going to take your word on that" she said brightly
The prince could barely contain his joy "It's a promise then… does that mean we're… you know- um- courting?"
Anna blushed "I guess so… However we might have to ask Elsa"
Adam smiled and instinctively pulled the princess into a kiss "...Well she's right there, you could use this chance to formally introduce me too…" he suggested after they parted
The princess giggled and pulled him by the hand, leading him towards Elsa and Kristoff
"Elsa, Kristoff, I know you've already met him but I want to introduce you to prince-"
"Adam-" said Elsa, slightly shocked with the prince appearance, it was the first time she actually examined Adam "-You look exactly as Anna used to draw you… how can that even be possible?"
"Oh that-" Adam chuckled "-It might sound weird but we actually did meet in those dreams… I didn't know that Anna had talked to you about that"
"There were days when she would only talk about that" commented the queen only to make her sister blush
"So… Are you and Anna-?" Kristoff asked curiously
Anna fidgeted with her hand "About that… yeah we are, but we still need the queen's blessing" she said looking at her sister with unsure eyes
Elsa looked at Anna and then at Adam "If he's really the prince you used to talk to me about, then I really have nothing to object, you've already proven to be more than capable of taking your own decisions Anna, you know I'll support you no matter what"
The princess face lit up and she turned to Adam "Then it's him!- I mean… I choose him"
Anna, Elsa and Kristoff entered to the throne room, Charming and Cinderella were talking with Ariel and Eric in the middle of the room
Charming noticed the trio walking into the room and turned to them with a wide smile on his face "It's good to see you're awake, Kristoff-" he greeted the ice harvester before bowing to the two sisters "-It's always a pleasure to see you two as well"
Ariel smiled at them "Oh thank god you're here, we were just saying our goodbyes to Charming and Cindy"
The trio seemed surprised by the news "Y-You're leaving already?" asked Anna surprised
"Yeah, I left a lot of unfinished business back in Ibaren since I was supposed to come here just for a ball but ended up getting involved in a war" replied Eric with a chuckle
Elsa frowned "That's too bad, we have our return scheduled for tomorrow, I thought you would leave after we did"
"You don't have to leave if you don't want to-" informed Cinderella "-You're all more than welcome to stay here for as long as you'd like"
Anna smiled broadly "Oh don't worry, I'm going to take your word on that, I expect to be traveling a lot more after this-" she turned to her sister who looked as if she was about to protest the princess' decision "-You said I can make my own decisions so I'm sorry Elsa, but you're not going to stop me"
The eldest grimaced for a moment before smiling "I won't, but you'll travel doing business for Arendelle, I won't have you slacking off around the globe" warned Elsa
"Oh! Then you simply must come to Ibaren" pleaded Ariel eagerly
"I'll definitely will, I'll be sure to bring Elsa too" promised the princess
The queen was taken aback "A-Anna I'm not sure I'll-"
"Oh don't worry Elsa, I'm sure you'll find a chance to escape from your duties for a couple of days-" interrupted Kristoff smiling "-I'll make sure of it" he added, earning a look from the queen
"It's a promise then-" smiled Eric and then turned to Charming "-Very well, I think it's about time we take our leave"
"Have you seen the fairies by the way?-" asked Ariel "-I've looked for them everywhere but they're nowhere to be found"
"They already left-" replied Cinderella "-Flora said they didn't want to say goodbye, but she warned me that they would visit your kingdoms from time to time, now that we know of their existence they said there is no reason to hide from us"
Kristoff sighed "They didn't even let me thank them for saving my life..."
Eric smiled "We'll have to thank them when we see them then. Ariel, it's getting late let's go" he informed his wife
"I'll see you two to the docks then" offered prince Charming
The redheaded princess and her husband hugged each of the royals saying their farewells
"We'll definitely see each other again-" said Ariel smiling "-It's a promise"
"I can't believe that tomorrow we'll be going back to Arendelle and it will be as if nothing ever happened" sighed Kristoff with his gaze lost in the horizon
Eugene approached the ice harvester "Nothing?-" Kristoff turned to the prince "-You're now courting the queen, Arendelle is out of their financial problem, and you have managed to get an alliance with some of the most relevant kingdoms this side of the sea… How's anything going to stay the same?"
The blonde smiled "Now that Decidere is not a threat… perhaps we'll go back to how we were" he suggested
"Oh no, we'll have a lot more work than you think-" corrected the queen who was accompanied by Rapunzel, Elsa approached her boyfriend "-We defeated Decidere so we could protect Arendelle, now that it is protected, we can finally start working in sustaining it"
"That's right, things are just beginning for you guys" added the brunette princess with a smile
The two couples stood in silence, contemplating the twilight, until the ice harvester broke the silence
"Oh right, Hey Rapunzel, Anna was looking for you. I think she doesn't know that you were going to leave tonight" he informed
The princess' eyes widened "I totally forgot to tell Anna!"
"You didn't tell her?! I was just about to go say goodbye to her" said Eugene with surprise, following his wife as she ran into the castle.
The two blondes were now alone-
"How are you feeling?" asked Elsa
Kristoff turned to the queen with attention "Good as new, the only thing remaining is a tiny scar"
The queen smiled weakly "I'm glad you're okay"
"…And how are you feeling?" he asked casually
Elsa looked at him curiously "Of course I'm okay, the witch didn't harm me-"
"About us… -I mean- how are you feeling about us?" added the ice harvester
Her features brightened with surprise "I was just talking about that with Rapunzel" she commented
"You- You were talking about us?-wh-y-" he stuttered
"All good things, all good things-" she reassured him "-She was explaining me the basic issues to expect as an effect of courting someone who is not royalty, how to confront the people about the courting, emotional -dating related- issues that must be resolved as soon as possible… luckily we're pretty solid so I don't see us breaking up-" Elsa talked calmly until she noticed her words "-I-I mean, If… if you're okay with me"
Kristoff chuckled and reached for her hands, gently holding them "I want to be with you for as long as you'll have me"
Elsa smiled and as the sun was just about to disappear in the distance she pulled her ice harvester into a kiss.
And so... For the first time in her life the queen felt the warmth of her own body, as her heart-beats synced with his heart-beats and she held his hands tightly. Elsa could finally feel that she really had nothing to worry about, she simply knew that eventually everything would be alright and they would all live happily ever after.
The End.
That's it guys, this is where our story ends. There might be some things I didn't include or moments I decided to skip, that's because I wished to tell the story about Decidere and that tale is now over, many things changed for the characters and many things will continue to change but those are other stories and they are for other times, I'll write an epilogue but I can't really know when that will be.
Thanks to all those who read this fic and followed it, I feel incredibly thankful for your time and attention
Have a good Day.
