Hey readers! I recently got a review insisting that I need to change this story to fit this website's guidelines. And so, I have to rewrite this story completely unless I want it to be reported (at least I think that's what the person was going to do) and taken off the site. At first I decided to edit the entire thing. But then I realised I didn't have the time, nor the motivation. Then I thought I'd put it up for adoption. But now I'm just thinking, whatever. I'm just going to leave this story up, as is, until someone more official actually takes notice.

CHAPTER 1

Anna smiled as she brushed her hair. She'd been non-stop smiling the entire day in anticipation. Even now as she returned to her room to prepare for bed, her expression remained almost fixed at elated. Of course, this was not a conscious effort on Anna's part. But she couldn't help her excitement. Coronation day was tomorrow!

And coronation day had been a ray of light in Anna's future for so long. The gates would be opened. But perhaps more importantly, she would finally get to see her sister, stand next to her even. The only down side to Anna's delight, was that she was going to find it very hard to get to sleep tonight. But it wouldn't do if she were too tired to enjoy tomorrow. So sleep she must. Somehow.

Suddenly, there was a bright flash of light. She shut her eyes tightly and the brush fell swiftly from her stunned hand. But instead of hearing the soft thud of the wooden brush hitting the floor of her carpeted bedroom, she heard the distinct clack of wood on wood. Cautiously, she eased her eyes open and examined her new surroundings, for as she suspected, they were in fact new.

She was standing in the largest room she had ever seen. And considering she lived in a castle, that was really saying something. The floors were a polished wood that gleamed from the light of several elegant crystal chandeliers, and the walls were painted a magnificent gold that only served to make the light bounce around the room more. It was like nothing Anna had ever seen before. She could almost believe she were standing outside watching an all-encompassing sunset.

And she was not alone. More people than she had ever seen were standing around and gaping just as she was. But what really caught Anna's attention, was the fact that her sister was standing directly beside her, looking just as stupefied as everyone else. While Anna looked around some more, she began to recognise a bunch of the servants that also lived in the castle. However, compared to the number of people she didn't recognise, the people she did were a small number indeed.

"Everyone," a voice beckoned. Anna looked to the front and saw a girl, who was perhaps the only person in the entire room who did not appear confused. She looked to be about the same age as Anna herself, and yet, at the same time, she seemed older than everyone present. How this was so, Anna could not say.

When all the people in the room had their attention on the girl, she continued speaking. "Please take a seat and everything will be explained." And with that there were chairs, couches, and pillows, appearing as if pulled from the air. They were all shapes and all sizes but every single one was facing in the direction of the girl. Still very unbalanced by the entire situation, Anna sat down on the couch that had materialised behind her without comment. Though she did notice that Elsa took the spot beside her, and it calmed her slightly. But having her sister beside her did not seem to have the same affect on Elsa. In fact, she was growing more and more nervous by the second.

Close by, to the left of the sisters, a reindeer lay on its stomach and a large blond man took a seat in front with his back resting against the animal's side. A vast crowd of servants and villagers (all the servants villagers as a matter of fact) were making themselves comfortable on various items of furniture not far beyond the duo. On the girls' other side, a group of thirteen well-dressed men were lined up in a row of chairs. They were similar in looks, but the further away they were positioned from the princesses, the elder they appeared. Behind them were a large collection of important looking dignitaries. One in particular looked very put out.

"This is an outrage! I demand to know what is happening at once!" The man yelled. He was now the only person who was not sitting down. Not that you could tell, even standing he was barely taller than those seated around him.

"As I said," the mysterious girl responded calmly, "I will tell everyone what is happening once you take a seat."

The man looked ready to angrily hop right over to the girl and throw a tantrum, however he did reluctantly settle down into a large armchair that had the unfortunate side effect of making him look even smaller.

"I have brought you all here to watch something called a movie," the girl told them. "It is like a moving picture but with sound, and it serves to tell a story. This particular movie is centred around something set to happen in the next few days."

"So, we are going to be shown the future?" Elsa asked wearily. Anna stared at her in surprise, remembering she was there. It had been so long since she had heard her sister's voice. She had almost forgotten how it sounded.

"Well most of it shows the future," the girl answered, "But some of it shows the past. This will be evident as you watch it."

"You can't just keep us here and force us to watch this, this, whatever it was!" the short dignitary protested.

"Actually,' the girl disagreed, "I can."

Before the man could argue further, the girl disappeared like she had never been there in the first place. As Anna tried to process the situation she had found herself in, a section of wall behind where the girl had just been standing turned black as the light from the chandeliers dimmed. The movie was beginning.
