Hey! Would you look at that! I actually updated like I said I would! Yay me!

Anyways, for those that are reading my other story (since I haven't updated that one in forever as well...) I am working on it, but I have hit a road block and got stuck, so I'm trying to figure out how to get it out without making it suck. So far, no luck, but I do plan on having it out soon... soonish... So yeah.

This chapter is were things start getting fun, and I had some fun exploring the big reveal scene. Obviously what is in the movie isn't here because that wouldn't make sense with what has happened in this story, so hopefully the changes work, I think they do anyways.

Disclaimer: I don't own Frozen or its characters. Just my plot and age switches.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Chapter 14

Sorcery

I walked away from Anna, scared of my reaction and how she was going to take it. I will be honest, I liked having the gates open, it was refreshing, but it couldn't be like this all the time because… what if someone found out about my powers? What if they didn't like it? What would happen to the kingdom? I couldn't let that happen, it was better for me to just hide them like I always did. Weaving through the masses of people, I eventually found myself near the food table, and more importantly, the chocolate. I reached out to grab a piece because it's chocolate, and I realized I still had my gloves on. I didn't really want to get chocolate stains on them, but I also didn't want to take them off…

It couldn't hurt, even if it was for a second.

But what if my powers revealed themselves within those seconds? Everyone would know, and…

But you also deserve a snack, it has been a long day…

What if I hurt someone else?

By grabbing a piece of chocolate? Yeah right.

You can never be too careful.

My mind was having a debate within itself on whether or not I should take off the glove… But before I could come to that decision my arm was quickly yanked to the right and my glove was torn from my hand unexpectedly. I gasped, searching around for where it could have gone. I was beginning to panic, I needed my glove for tonight. I didn't have full control yet.

I spotted a small boy, probably somewhere around five or six with my glove in his hands as he showed it proudly to some of the older boys, who were probably no older than ten. The boys seemed to notice that I had spotted them, and I watched in fear as some of his friends rolled my glove up and play with it like it was a ball. Now I was a little upset, they were raised better than that surely. I mean they looked as if they were nobility or even royalty… Actually, they looked a lot like Hans now that I think about it… Shaking that thought away I marched up to them, ready to demand to get my glove back when an older boy frowned at their behavior. Only I ended up joining their game by accident.

"Excuse me." I said in a commanding tone, although it didn't really come out that way. They all froze and turned to look at me, oh I'm sure looked real threatening, I mean me, the secretive Princess of Arendelle that has never left her room for anything other than actual orders by my parents. Honestly, I was probably more terrified than them on the inside, and they seemed to notice it, "May I have my glove back?"

"Oh, yeah, sure. Here you go," the oldest boy answered, outstretching his arm to hand it to me.

"Thank you." I responded, only to fall for his trick.

"Oops, too slow. David, catch!" the boy shouted, tossing the glove over to another one of the kids. And it became a game of keep away from me. Why didn't the adults notice, why didn't they care? Why wasn't someone helping me? I eventually gave up, deciding I'd just leave the party early. I'm sorry Anna, but if I can't control my powers and I don't have both gloves on, I can't stay here.

"Hey, where you going? It was just starting to get fun." One of the boys whined.

"This is why women are boring, John. Because they don't know how to have fun." The older boy taunted, "Do you think we should teach her?"

"Yeah!" all the kids shouted in unison, and rushed after me.

No this can't be happening, not now. Just get away, I just need to get away. I was so focused in my thoughts that I didn't hear the boys get all excited over some of the ice and snow that I had left on the ground by mistake.

"Hey!" they called after me, all of them calling after me to get me to stop or wait for them. One of the older boys managed to somehow get ahead of me, but he had a curious look on his face.

"How did you do that?" I gave him a weird look, "The snow? How did you make it snow?"

I stared at him in horror. No, nonononononono. This can't be happening! Not here! I was panicking in my mind. The other kids seemed to crowd around me as well, demanding that I "do it again" because they wanted to play. I needed to leave, but others were beginning to notice the snow talking to each other about it, the whispers floating throughout the room. Looking up I realized I was losing control of my powers and making it snow throughout the entire room. I decided that I needed to leave the room, and as I made my way to the exit, I felt someone bump into me, sending me to the floor. That's when everything went wrong. The second my left hand hit the floor, ice shot out and covered the floor and halfway up the nearby wall. This was bad, they know, they know. I pushed myself up on to my feet and tried to run, but I was being surrounded by people as they tried to keep me in the room so that the guards could take care of me.

I was freaking out, and other people began to notice. Not that I was scared, no, but they noticed the thickness of the snow that was beginning to fall within the ballroom itself. I tried to slide my way over to the doors that were, thankfully, nearby. I watched the crowed, trying to find my sister, but I couldn't see her anywhere. I began to panic more, causing more snow to fall while desperately reaching for the door knob…

Anna POV

All around me, people were beginning to freak out. She had to be scared... or missing her gloves. Oh gods this is all my fault for letting her out of my sight, and now people are not going to let her talk, too afraid of her powers to even think that it was an accident. Then I noticed a large portion of the wall covering in ice, and all my hope disappeared. The ice almost reached the ceiling, looking jagged and spikes sticking out in every direction on the wall. The names that were being shouted out didn't help my confidence either, and I could only fear for what Elsa had to be going though.

"Monster!"

"Witch!"

"Sorcery!"

I heard people whispering, shouting, and accusing Elsa of her magic. No, not now, why now? Please let me get to her first, I can fix this I know I can.

"I knew there was something dubious going on." I heard an old man mutter as I pushed my way through the crowd.

"Move, please out of my way!" I repeated over and over again as I tried to get through the crowd that seemed to grow the closer I got to the front. I was only able to catch glimpses of Elsa through the crowd, and what I did see was not a happy picture. Elsa was against a door, both hands clutched to her chest, and what looked like tears about to spill over her eyes and down her cheeks. "Elsa! Elsa!" I called, but I don't think she heard me.

"Don't let her escape!" I heard a high pitched and squealing old man's voice call out. I knew that voice, it was the Duke of Weselton, and he wanted to harm my sister. I finally pushed through, only to find the doors Elsa was just at, wide open and three guards going down the hall after Elsa. The Duke and his guards quickly followed the ice trail lay on the ground and I quickly rushed after them, ignoring the rest of the palace guards and their orders to keep me in the room. I followed the trail through all the twists and turns in the hallways, finally leading out to the courtyard and finding the scene to be very similar to the ballroom. The left water fountain had been frozen, the water itself in a terrifying claw like form, while the entrance to the palace had been frozen over, the Duke and his two guards on the ground pointing at Elsa calling her a monster. I spotted her magenta/purple shawl as she fled the courtyard heading to the western side of the castle. I easily ignored everyone in the area, rushing after my sister.

"Elsa! Elsa, wait!" I called, as I followed her out to the fjord, "Elsa, stop! Please!"

I watched as she turned around, a panicked look in her eyes as she backed out onto the water, freezing the water as she touched it with her foot.

"Elsa, please! Don't run. We can fix this. Please, stay here." I pleaded, slowly approaching her as she began breathing quickly. I could see the tear stains on her cheek and I knew she was scared.

"Anna, I'm scared." She whimpered, I opened my mouth to try and calm her down, but the guards beat me to it.

"There she is! Stop her!" They called out, I had turned my head in shock for a second, but it was the final push for Elsa as she took off across the water, creating an icy path for herself to the other side and disappeared into the woods. I glared at the guards before trying to go after her, only to be stopped by the guards and pulled back to the courtyard. And by then, it had started snowing outside as well. People were panicking, it was summer and it was snowing, they did have a right to panic. But it was all an accident, she was only scared, why couldn't they see that?

"Anna! Anna, are you okay?" I heard a familiar voice call out. I turned my head to see Hans rushing up to greet me, embracing me in a hug before checking me over for any injuries.

"No." I whispered out, more of me wishing I could have helped Elsa than answering his question.

"Did you know?" He asked, concern flooding through his eyes as he looked at me. Millions of thoughts raced through my mind. I couldn't tell him that I did, no matter how much I wanted to…

"My parents-" I took a deep breath before continuing, following the lie that my parents had forced into my mind no matter how much I hated it. Right now however, that lie was probably the only thing that was going to keep me safe, and allow me to bring my sister back safely as well, "My parents only ever told me she was sick… That she was suffering from some sort of illness. Do you think- do you think this is what they were talking about? That this is what they meant whenever they told me she was sick?" I asked him, putting on a scared and confused face. He only pulled me back into a hug as silent tears fell from my eyes, while a small part of me hoped that everything was going to be alright.

So that happened... The reveal wasn't as shocking as the movie, but that's because Anna didn't know about Elsa's powers, so since she does know, it was a little less exciting I think it normally would have been... idk though, it could just me being super self-conscious of my work like always.

We will see some more of Rapunzel and Eugene in the next chapter. And next note, I am not a fan of posting whole songs into stories, and to be honest whenever I encounter one in another fanfic I tend to skip over it... sorry, not sorry... so my question is, do you want me to post "Let It Go" or not? I will if people want it. Honestly, that is like my favorite song and I'm still hesitant about posting it just cause I don't like reading song lyrics in stories unless its short little excerpts... though I guess I did post all of "Frozen Heart" by the Ice miners in the beginning, but that is also a relativity short song...

IDK, I have to think about this, but let me know what you think and I'll see you in the next chapter! Peace!
