After reading several reunion fanfics where Agdar and idun survived the shipwreck, I decided to do a series of one shots about the whole Arendellian Royal family with Agdar, Idun, Anna, and Elsa, all occurring after the events of the movie and after the events of any family reunion. These one shots are essentially after Agdar and Idun return back home. So, Elsa and Anna are the same age as after the end of the movie. But, some one shots may have Elsa as the queen, or some may have Idun and Agdar as the king and queen. anyway, Elsa is 21 and Anna is 18 as usual.


Title: Fishing

Genre: Humor/Family


"Anna? What are you doing?" Elsa muttered, her eyes still closed, as her sister slowly climbed out to bed.

"Oh...um...I'm going somewhere." Anna said quietly as she tip toed over to her wardrobe, praying that her sister would go back to sleep.

"Where?" Elsa asked with a yawn, as she sat up, and stared at her sister's bed head.

"Why? It's not something you like...I mean, you aren't exactly the nature lover." Anna replied as she took off her nightgown and searched for a dress.

"Try me..."

"Well, papa promised that he'd take me fishing today. I have hunting skills, military skills, and survival skills. Might as well learn fishing skills." Anna said with a shrug as she put on an olive-green dress.

"Oh, well can I come?" Elsa asked. Anna turned around and stared at her sister in shock as if she had just spoken in a foreign language.

"I'm sorry, i think I misheard you. Could you repeat that?" Anna asked in surprise.

"You didn't mishear. I was asking if I could come." Elsa said as she rolled her eyes.

"Maybe you should be fully awake before you ask that question again." Anna said with a light chuckle as she turned around, only to have a snowball collide with the back of her head moments later.

"I'm coming. I'm starting to get fed up of being cooped up in the castle all day. Plus, I've got nothing to do today since it's a Sunday and I'd rather be with you than sitting in the gardens all day." Elsa mumbled as she tumbled out of bed and shuffled towards the dresser.

Knock, knock, knock...

"Coming..." Anna called out as she moved towards the door.

"Ready Anna...AAH!" Agdar screamed in shock before realizing it was only his daughter. "Oh...um...you should probably do your hair Anna. Well, I'll be downstairs when you're ready."

Anna rolled her eyes as she moved towards the dresser and grabbed the brush while her sister busied herself in Anna's wardrobe looking for a dress. As soon as they finished, they went downstairs towards the dining room to have a quick breakfast before joining their father on a small fishing trip.

"Where are you three going?" Idun asked as she noticed that her daughters and husband were all dressed up in out doors attire.

"Papa is bringing us fishing." Anna said calmly as she finished her drink.

"Oh..." Idun said with a slight look of surprise on her face as she stared at Elsa then Agdar. "Okay, well have fun then...and try not to get yourselves injured."

"We won't. What could possibly go wrong?" Anna laughed causing Idun to frown at Agdar who shot a glare back at her.

"Well, it's time to go now girls." Agdar said as he stood up and grabbed a muffin from the table. "Don't want to be too late."

Elsa and Anna followed their father towards then doorway leaving Idun and Gerda staring after them from the dining room.

"I'll give them an hour." Gerda said.

"I'll give them 30 minutes." Idun replied with a laugh.


Outside, near the docks...

"Your majesty." One of the guards greeted the queen. Elsa nodded in response as Agdar chose one of the boats. "A nice day to go fishing, eh prime minister?"

"Yes it is." Agdar replied as he boarded the boat and gestured for his daughters to come aboard. As soon as they all boarded the boat, he gestured for one of the guards to come aboard to row. "Alright, that looks like a nice spot."

The guard nodded as he rode the dinghy over to the other side of the fjord near the inlet of the ocean. It took around Twenty minutes to get there, which was around twenty minutes too long for Anna who was already beginning to get restless by the time they got there.

"Right. You know how to fish right?" Agdar asked his two daughters.

"No." Anna replied as Elsa shook her head. "I thought you were going to teach us?"

"Fine." Agdar said with a slight scowl as he gestured for the guard to hand them all fishing rods. "Right, first of all, you've got to attach a weight to the end of the line, like so."

Agdar watched as Anna and Elsa tied the weights on to the end of the lines by the hooks before looking back at him for further instructions.

"Good. Now, we need worms." Agdar told the guard, as Elsa's eyes widened.

"Worms?" Elsa asked with a wince.

"Yeah...you know, the little, pink, squirmy things that exist in the..."

"I know what worms are Anna. I meant, that why would we need to use them?" Elsa asked.

"Oh I see...you're afraid of worms?" Anna asked with a chuckle.

"I'm not afraid. I just don't like them..." Elsa said as she thought of how grossed out she was every time she used to touch one of them. She moved away as the guard passed Agdar a small bucket of them. He grabbed one with one of the gloves and impaled it on the hook causing Elsa to look away and disgust.

"Oh relax Elsa. Just use the...gloves?" Anna said, wincing slightly at the mention of gloves to her sister. Fortunately, her sister didn't think anything of it as she lunged at one of the pairs of gloves and stuffed them on before grabbing one of the worms from the bucket. She slowly moved it towards the hook, a look of disgust on her face, as she impaled it slightly on the hook causing it to squirm and her to squeal slightly. "My turn..."

Anna grabbed the bucket, but misjudged her aim and accidentally knocked the bucket over, spilling the worms all over her father's lap.

"AAH!" Agdar screamed as he jumped up and brushed the worms off his lap and shirt, Anna and Elsa laughing lightly in the background. "Anna!"

"Sorry papa." Anna giggled as she took one of the worms on the floor and stuck it on the hook. It took around another ten minutes for them to pick up all the worms and put them away, Elsa making sure to give herself plenty of clearance from the squirmy things, as she called them. Finally, they could get around to fishing.

"Right, assuming Anna isn't going to knock anything else over, let's start." Agdar said. He drew the rod above his head before casting the weighted line out into the water as fast as he could. "Don't draw it back too fast or else..."

"AAH!"

Agdar turned around to see the guard screaming in pain next to an apologetic Anna. He shook his head as he watched the guard remove the hook from his arm and wince painfully before he covered the wound with a bit of cloth while trying to restrain himself from glaring at the princess.

"My goodness Anna. You're a walking danger." Elsa laughed as she moved away slightly in case she was the next victim.

"It's not my fault that he was standing so close behind me." Anna said as then guard scowled behind her.

"Anna. Don't draw it back too fast otherwise that will happen. Draw it slowly, and then cast it quickly, like I did." Agdar said. Anna nodded in response as she followed her father's advice and cast the line. "...and you might want to let go of the reel when you do that as well dear..."

"Oops." Anna mumbled as she tried again and watched as, this time, the line successfully cast into the water about ten feet away. Elsa looked at her father and sister before doing the same thing, only to have her hook land barely a foot in front of her.

"Not fast enough." Agdar stated as he gestured to do it faster. Elsa nodded as she tried again with the same result.

"Her let me do it..." Anna offered.

"No, in case you stab me with it!" Elsa replied causing Anna to lightly hit her, while the guard laughed. Elsa drew the rod back again as she cast it as hard as she could into the distance.

"Excellent!" Agdar congratulated as he watched the line land a good fifteen feet away.

"Now what?" Elsa asked.

"Now, we wait." Agdar said as he sat down and pulled out the muffin that he had taken from the table earlier on and munched on it.

"For how long?" Elsa asked, the smile on her face fading lightly.

"As long as it takes for the fish to take the bait." Agdar replied.

"It's like hunting your majesty, except its ten times harder, takes a hundred times longer, and is a thousand times more boring, while yielding much less than any hunt would ever do. I know because I've done it before..." The guard said with a chuckle. Elsa just stared blankly at the sea in front of her, suddenly wondering if sitting in the gardens all day doing nothing might have actually been a better decision.

"Relax Elsa. We can tell a story or something while we wait. Plus, I'm always the one to snap from boredom first, so as long as I don't snap, you probably won't." Anna laughed as she stared back at the hook which was bobbing up and down in the oceanic waters.

"Patience is the key to a successful fish." Agdar muttered to himself as he stuffed half of the muffin into his mouth and proceeded to pull out another sandwich hidden in the fishing bag he was carrying.

"Er, just how much food do you have in there?" Elsa asked as she stares at the bag.

"Not much." Agdar said as she pulled out several more sandwiches, a couple of chocolates, a small flask of whiskey, several boiled eggs, and a small cake.

"I didn't know you judge size by Anna's standards." Elsa giggled causing Agdar and the guard to laugh.

"I've always wanted to see if a snow queen floats like ice, or whether she sinks." Anna threatened playfully as she smirked at her sister. Elsa just giggled in response.


Back at the harbor...

"Hmm, I think I'm going to win." Gerda told Idun as they stood by the harbor, both of them holding spyglasses, and watched the three royals fishing from afar.

"If I know my youngest daughter well enough, she'll probably be the one to turn the entire fishing trip upside down, literally." Idun stated. "Then again, Elsa looks like she's barely holding on as well."

"Um, your highness..." Kristoff said as he approached Idun.

"Kristoff? Please just call Idun. Formalities won't he necessary." Idun said with a smile to Anna's boyfriend.

"Oh, of course...Idun. Have you seen Anna?" Kristoff asked. Idun handed Kristoff the spyglass and gestured for him to look to the distance near the inlet of the fjord. Kristoff looked through it and was surprised to see Anna, Elsa and Agdar into the fishing boat over there.

"This is not going to end well..." Kristoff muttered to himself as he double checked to make sure he wasn't seeing things. "Anna can barely hold still for five minutes in a moving sleigh, let alone a stationary boat that's only surrounded by water."

"I know." Idun agreed as she took the spyglass back and started staring again.


Fishing boat, 15 minutes later...

"Are you sure that the waters have fish in them?" Anna asked grumpily as she laid her head on the side of the boat.

"Yes Anna. I've fished here before. I know exactly where the best places are." Agdar said.

"Then how comes...we haven't seen so much as a fin?!" Anna shouted, the boredom beginning to take over her. Elsa was sitting behind her, busy staring at the water for over ten minutes now.

"Calm down daughter."

"ARGH! This is so boring! Next time, I'm bringing my crossbow and I'll just shoot the fish out of the water." Anna grumbled.

"I'm going to love to see that." Agdar chuckled under his breath. Suddenly, one of the floats moved slightly catching his attention. He watched as the float disappeared under the water and the reel began to spin slightly on Elsa's rod. "Elsa! You've caught something!"

"Huh? What?" Elsa mumbled as she was knocked out of her daydream. Her eyes caught sight of the rell on her rod which was spinning rapidly causing her to gasp. "Aah! What now?"

"Grab the rod!" Anna squealed suddenly as she grabbed it and pushed it into her sister's hands.

"Right, grab the reel and stop it spinning!" Agdar shouted as Elsa follows his instructions. "Now reel it in!"

Elsa winded the reel backwards as hard as she could.

"It's too strong!" Elsa gasped as she used all her strength to reel the catch in. Anna moved over and held Elsa to stop her from falling in the water as Agdar ordered her to reel it in harder. Elsa struggled but eventually managed to use her strength to pull the rod backwards and reel the fish in.

"Judging by how hard you're struggling, this must be a big fish!" The guard said as he stood up in an attempt to balance the weight in the dinghy. "Come on your majesty. Pull harder."

Elsa struggled to pull it in but eventually succeeded and, a few moments later, pulled her catch out of the water. The guard could barely contain his laughter as Agdar stared at the catch before looking at Elsa with a quirked brow, his mouth slightly agape. Even Anna was looking at her sister with an awkward look on her face.

"Um...well done?" Anna said, though it came out more like a question. The fish was less than a foot in length and weighed a little over a pound.

"That fish was incredibly strong." Elsa mumbled, blushing slightly from the embarrassment.

"Or you're incredibly weak." Anna muttered under her breath. Elsa handed the rod to her father who unhooked the dish and put it in a small basket that was in the boat before attaching another worm and handing the rod back to Elsa. He turned back to his own rod, occasionally glancing at Elsa, as she cast her rod back into the water.

"Okay...now we wait again..." Agdar said.

"Hopefully the fish chooses my line this time." Anna said as she held her rod and moved it from side to side, hoping that something would grab her line. She sat back down with a sigh and waited for a few more minutes before boredom started to take over again.

"Maybe if we chill the water to near freezing, they might surface for warmth." Anna suggested to her sister who frowned at her. "Just a suggestion."

All of a sudden, her father's reel began to spin.

"Yes! I've got something!" Agdar yelled as he grabbed the rod and pulled back as hard as he could, reeling in the fish which was putting up a struggle. A few moments later, he pulled the catch out of the water, revealing a one and a half foot long, five pound cod. "Yes! Now this is a fish!"

Anna and Elsa watched as Agdar dropped the fish into the boat and stuffed it in the basket, which was barely large enough to hold it.

"Well sister, it looks like you're the only one who hasn't caught anything." Elsa said as Anna said back down with a growl. Almost immediately after sitting down, Anna's reel began to spin, and rapidly at that. Anna squealed in delight as she jumped up and grabbed the reel.

"Right Anna. Remember how I did it!" Agdar stated as he stood up nest to Anna and held her shoulders. Elsa watched next to her as Anna began to struggle from the strength of her catch.

"Wow. This one is strong!" Anna commented as she focused all her strength into stopping the reel from spinning but she just couldn't. The only thing she could do was hold the rod and hope that it stopped spinning soon.

"Anna! You're running out of line!" Agdar shouted as he gestured to reel it in.

"I can't stop it!" Anna screamed as no matter how hard she grabbed the reel, she couldn't stop it and had to pull her hand away almost immediately.

"I bet this one is a foot long..." Elsa laughed causing her sister to shoot her a glare.

"Wait, I think its slowing down!" Anna screamed as she held on to the rod as firmly as she could. It was only then that the guard noticed a massive object in the distance, underwater.

"Er...Prime minister?" The guard called out.

"Hold on." Agdar said as he grabbed Anna's rod to increase the hold on it. "Yes! I think we've...AAAAH!"

"ANNA! PAPA!" Elsa screamed as her sister and father were pulled into the water in a split second. She looked over the edge where, a second later, her father and sister emerged.

"What the heck was..." Agdar was interrupted by a massive eruption of water from behind him. Agdar and Anna turned around to see a massive humpback whale breaching the water, high into the air, before landing back into the ocean with a massive splash that completely drenched the four of them.

Back at the port...

"Er? Did the princes of Arendelle...just hook a whale?" A guard asked in shock as he stared through the spyglass at the dinghy. Idun and Gerda stood nearby staring in shock as they watched the whale breach a second time before landing with an equally large splash nearby again.

"Whoa..." Several of the citizens nearby said as they stared at the event.

Back on the fishing boat...

"Of all the things in the ocean to catch...a whale! I had to catch a whale!" Anna screamed as she climbed back aboard the ship, Elsa helping her while the guard helped Agdar.

"Well that was a first." Agdar commented as he removed his drenched coat and wrung it out. Anna sat down nearby as she grabbed another spare fishing rod and prepared it, before casting it in the water moments later.

"If this is a whale as well..." Anna growled as she sat back down and wrung out her dress, Elsa doing the same thing behind her. "I'm starting to hate fishing..."

"I've already hated it." Elsa said from behind. "And now I'm completely soaked."

"And I nearly got crushed by a whale." Anna commented. She sighed as she rested her head in her hands again, hoping that the next thing she catches is actually edible...and catchable.

30 minutes later...

"I think the whale scared all the fish off...or maybe it ate them when it breached." Anna suggested.

"Patience." Agdar muttered as he closed his eyes.

"Patience dumped us into the water and nearly crushed us with a hundred tons of blubber. I'm opting for rifles next time." Anna mumbled in response as her eyelids began to droop and close. "Or maybe...Elsa can just freeze the fish out of the water."

"That would be cheating." Elsa said as she stared out into the horizon, also starting to become sleepy. "Besides, if we really want fish, next time we'll bring a fishing net. These rods are useless."

The guard in the boat was already fast asleep leaving only Elsa awake as her sister and father fell into a sleep as well. Eventually though, boredom, combined with the lack of movement and events caused Elsa to succumb to a deep sleep as well, leaving all four of them fast asleep, adrift in the fjord.


4 hours later...

"Why does my face hurt?" Anna mumbled as she slowly sat up and realized that she had been sleeping on the wooden side of the boat. She looked around and realized that it was already noon. She looked around for her fishing rod and found that it was still empty. "Great just my luck."

Anna sighed as she looked in the direction of the castle...and saw it wasn't there. She sat straighter as she looked around and was greeted by nothing but ocean.

"Er...papa..." Anna said as she shook her father slightly. "Papa!"

"What? Anna what is it? You caught something?" Agdar asked sleepily as he sat up and rubbed his eyes.

"Um...no...we have a problem."

"What kind of problem?"

"We lost Arendelle." Anna said, as Agdar's eyelids snapped open.

"What are you talking about. Arendelle is clearly over...there?" Agdar stared at where Arendelle used to be but no longer was. "Oh no...I think we've drifted out to sea!"

"Elsa! Wake up!" Anna shouted as she shook her sister, waking her and the guard up as well.

"Anna!" Elsa groaned as she sat up and blinked several times. She looked around and realized why Anna had woken her up. "Er, where are we?"

"Lost." Anna replied simply as she sat down and looked around for any sign of land.

"You're joking right!" Elsa asked as she sat up suddenly and looked around, thinking that Anna was messing around with her. She was shocked to see nothing but ocean all around them.

"Papa?" Elsa asked wearily as she watched her father look around and sigh.

"We've drifted out to sea." Agdar replied as he sat down and pulled in his fishing rod.

"Well, you know where home is right?" Elsa asked.

"Unfortunately, no." Agdar replied.

"Wait, you don't have a compass on you?" Anna asked to which Agdar shook his head.

"You brought an entire buffet, yet you forgot one of the most important devices for oceanic travel." Elsa muttered as she shook her head. "Great, just great. So now what?"

"Do you know how to make a spyglass?" Agdar asked his daughter.

"Nope. My powers can't do anything like that yet." Elsa replied.

"A spy glass is just a couple of ocular lenses and a extendable tube." Anna stated. "You can make a lens right?"

"Well, I might be able to...but it won't be fine enough to see anything in high detail." Elsa said.

"That's alright. As long as we can make out the faint sight of land mass, then it should be right. Elsa took a deep breath as she crafted a small, spyglass shaped, object and handed it to Anna. Anna looked at it quizzically before using it and looking in all directions.

"Wow...its so blurry..." Anna laughed as she looked around.

"I told you I couldn't make good lenses." Elsa said as she rolled her eyes.

"Wait...I think I see some land...it looks like a mountain of some sort. I think that's the north mountain!" Anna shouted as she pointed in the direction of the mountain she saw.

"Are you sure?" Agdar asked as he grabbed a set of oars, the guard grabbing a set as well.

"No...these lenses are so blurry that I can't even see the reflection of the sun on the sea." Anna cried out.

"Well, there's only one way to find out." Agdar said as he and the guard began rowing.

A good 7 hours later...

"ELSA! ANNA!" Idun screamed as she ran up to her daughters and hugged them tightly, tears in her eyes. "I thought something happened to you..."

"Well...we did get lost." Agdar said as Idun pulled him into a hug as well.

"Your majesty! Your highness! Are you alright?" The captain of the guard asked as he ran up to them.

"Yes, we're fine." Elsa replied.

"Thank goodness." The captain sighed as he went to call back the search teams.

"What happened?" Idun asked her husband and daughters.

"We fell asleep and...kind of drifted out to sea." Anna answered.

"Yeah, and then expert survivor Anna here, led us in the direction of a mountain...thirty miles away!" Agdar stated.

"Well you try looking through Elsa's spyglass. Its clearer to look through a glass of water.

"Stop complaining Anna." Elsa groaned. "I told you I can't make good lenses with ice."

"Well, we're home safe now." Anna said as she put an arm around her sister's shoulder. "And...I am never going fishing again. I'll stick with hunting Deer and boar and stuff."

"The same here..." Elsa agreed as they walked inside, leaving their mother and father outside.

"So, getting lost. Yours or Anna's idea?" Idun asked with a raised brow.

"Family effort. We all fell asleep." Agdar laughed as Idun lightly pushed him as they both walked inside.

"I was so worried about you three." Idun said as Agdar pulled her in closer.

"I know you were dear. But we're fine now." Agdar replied.

"Did Anna really hook that whale?" Idun asked moments later as they entered the castle.

"Yes...yes she did."


I just thought of this and had to write it. I did my research and there are humpback whales in Norway.

The idea of the whale came to me when i saw a video of a whale getting too close to a kayak. So i thought, imagine if Anna caught one.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much of Idun in this but I thought a father-daughter activity like fishing might be good, since I already did a camping one shot in my other story.

Any ideas for what I should do next?

Please, if you have any ideas and prompts, do tell them.
