This is a Frozen/ Beauty and the Beast/ Tangled crossover fanfic, this is an alternate universe where Elsa lives in the town of Arendelle with her father Agdar and her older brother Ryan (OC and narrator), her baby sister Anna also lives in Arendelle with her husband Kristoff. Elsa has no powers in this story.
I don't own any characters in this story, Disney does. I only own my original characters, Ryan (Elsa and Anna's older brother), Sarah (Kristoff's ice harvesting partner), and Alex (the Beast King).
Arendelle has always been a mysterious land, full of magic and wonder. Many strange stories have been told of this place, but none so strange as the one I shall tell you now.
It begins with rose, a single white rose in the winter. Arendelle once had a king who had everything he could ever desire, yet still he was cruel and selfish to his people. King Alex's castle was separate from the town, connected only by a bridge, as Arendelle was built around a fjord. It looked much like one would think of a castle would look like. Made of stone, with many flags and towers, and massive gates, which were almost always closed. The most impressive feature of the castle was courtyard full of magnificent fountains and beautifully carved tiles of stone in the ground.
The king was trying to relax in the library when Kai his head servant appeared at the entrance "Your Majesty, I'm sorry for disturbing you but I'm afraid someone has arrived at the castle and she is being quite persistent in being able to speak with you," he said. "Fine, as long as it gets her to leave as soon as possible," the monarch said with an angry sigh. So the bald, middle aged man led the young king to the ballroom where a haggard old woman sat in the middle on her knees. When she saw him, she bowed her head and asked, "Forgive me for the coming here unannounced your highness, but I was hoping I could be given shelter here from the terrible storm. In exhange, please accept this rose, for it is all I have to offer."
King Alex took the flower and stared at it for a minute, then burst out laughing. Out of fear of his wrath, the servants who were witnessing this began to chuckle nervously. "Hahaha, oh... while this is a lovely flower, I'm afraid I cannot allow you to stay here. Your ugly appearance might scare away any foreign visitors I might have, so you'll have to leave," he cruelly answered. "Heed this warning young king, do not let my appearance fool you. For true beauty lies within," she warned, but he ignored it and sent her away.
With that, the old woman began to glow and ride into the air to become a beautiful sorceress, glowing brighter than the sun. "My lady, please I beg of you, forgive me I did not know," the young king pleaded. "I'm afraid that it is far too late for forgiveness my dear boy," she said. "I have seen your heart King Alex, all I saw and felt was cold, your heart is frozen and fierce, you feel no love for anything." Then the sorceress changed the king into a hideous pale beast, and placed a curse upon all of his servants. She then placed the castle atop the North Mountain, the highest point in Arendelle and hid it within an endless blizzard. The people of Arendelle soon forgot about the king and that there even was one and a castle, since the sorceress wiped their memories of both and of the people cursed because of their monarch.
"You are to remain here on this mountain for your disregard for everything," the sorceress said. "But do not lose hope, for the curse can still be lifted. If you can learn to love another and that person can learn to love you in return, then you and everyone else will be set free and the castle shall return to Arendelle. However, if you do not find love before the last pedal falls off of this enchanted rose, then you will be damned to remain a Beast King for all eternity here on top of the world all alone."
Years passed the king of beasts lost all hope that he would find love no matter much he tried to preserve the rose. "It's useless, no one could ever love me, who could love a beast like me?"
I will be loosely following the story of the new version of Beauty and the Beast, and some parts will be like the cartoon version as well, but using characters from Disney's Frozen and Tangled.
