Elsa couldn't help but feel her stomach drop as soon as the receptionist buzzed her through the glass doors of the meeting room. She'd been summoned only 15 minutes ago but for the entirety of those 15 minutes she saw muted conversations between the men and woman in the room who were deciding her future.

She picked up her bag and straightened her skirt, determined not to let her impending doom falsely trick her into showing weakness. She pushed the door open leaving the usual faint glimmer of frosted snowflakes on the glass she just touched.

"Elsa…" said one of the woman monotonously. She was one of two along with three other men, all dressed in black, all with the same look of impatience on their faces. "Please take a seat" she said, pointing to a lonely chair positioned on the other side of the table to the group. Elsa walked over silently setting her bag down and sitting on the chair, worried that any fast movements would tip her precariously balanced emotions so they would go crashing to the floor.

"You understand why we have held this meeting?" said one of the men, he had no hair except for the faint shadow at his temples, glasses balanced on his nose and the sheen of sweat on his forehead that caught the artificial light. "We felt it was important to hold this board meeting in order to review your conduct over the past few months, as the CEO of this company it is important you keep a respectable profile among other business holders to attract further investment and thus the excelling of this company, however your recent activities including Mr Hans of SI Industries has proved…unfavourable to us and we worry that the future of this corporation will be tied to your misgivings if you were to remain the CEO"

"Therefore" began another man, this one had a full head of hair but he was spilling out of ill-fitting suit, Elsa knew exactly what was going to be said, but it didn't stop her mind from running wild with ways to stop this board meeting. Her finger ached to use her powers, to feel the euphoria she felt whenever she did use them, the high which came with so many consequences. "As a board we have decided, for the better future of this company and all its employees, you shall renounce your CEO title of Arundel Enterprises, effective immediately". The words sounded in Elsa's ears for a while, as I they were just letter stringed together to form an incoherent sentence, but when they did sink in she felt the overwhelming sense of treachery by her own board members. She knew the women, Cathy and Paula, whose kids went to school together. Marcus who invited her over for dinner with him and his wife. Luke, the bald man and Gareth the other one who had fired her without so much as a twitch. They now all stared at her blank expression as if she were a stranger, perhaps now she was, and she was no one, with nothing to her name.

"Will you not even give me a chance to defend myself" she burst out, words escaping her before she could realise "My father built this company from the ground up, if it wasn't for this blood and sweat none of you would even be sat where you are right now"

"But that's just it Elsa" Paula began "you aren't your father, you came into this too young and yes you were promising to begin with but your personal life has put this company in jeopardy and at the end of the day we need someone with more experience, both in business and in life"

"I had no choice, what happened with Hans-"

"Almost endangered this empire, the decision had been made, anything you say will not sway our final verdict" Elsa rose from her seat, her fingertips numbing as she felt anger bubble up within her. The others seemed to notice as well and Marcus pressed a button under the table, probably to notify security. However Elsa knew she had to get out of there before they arrived, in her current state of mind she wasn't in control of who she could hurt. She picked up her bag, stood up from her chair and pushed through the glass doors turning it completely to ice that shattered as swung shut.
