"Your highness! Your highness!" One of the guards rushed into the throne room before falling to his knees and trying to catch his breath. King Adgar studied the young man with concern before he started slowly rising to his feet,still panting from exhaustion.
"What's wrong?" The king asked with a worried tone before he noticed the horrified look in the man's eyes. "We're under attack..." The guard pants as the queen,Idun joined her husband. "By who?" She asks calmly before the man shook his head frantically.
"Not who...what..." He shivered when he spoke,remembering the monster that chased him all the way back to Arendelle. The king and queen patiently waited for the man's answer while he tried to collect himself enough to tell them what he saw.
"We're being attacked by a dragon..." He said quickly. Idun and Adgar looked between each other with mortified expressions when they heard his answer before looking back at the man.
"Go get some rest,son. You need it." The king said calmly,making the guard hesitate for a moment. "What about...?" He started before noticing the king raise his hand. "I'll let the captain know and maybe we can at least drive it off." He said in a reassuring tone before the young guardsman nods reluctantly.
"Yes,your highness." He says before departing as Adgar turned to his wife. "Where's Anna?" He asks in a concerned tone. "She was in the kitchen the last time I saw her." She answered calmly,noticing him sigh in relief before frowning lightly.
"And Elsa...?" He asks,making the queen frown lightly. "Still hasn't left her room..." She says softly,making him nod lightly. "Make sure they're alright,I need to gather the men." He says in a kind of hasty tone before she nods lightly then leaves the room.
The king rushed to the barracks to meet with the guard captain and tell him about the dragon so they could try and fight it off. "Captain!" He calls out before a middle aged man with dark brown hair,lightly tanned skin and hazel eyes approached him.
"What's wrong,your highness?" The guard captain asks urgently. "One of your men told me Arendelle's being attacked by a dragon,I need you to gather enough men and weapons to fight it off." He answered quickly,making the guard captain raise his eyebrow curiously.
"A dragon,after all these years?" He kind of muttered to himself before meeting the king's gaze then bowing his head. "Of course,I'll see to it at once." He said before rushing through the barracks to gather his men.
King Adgar rushed back upstairs while the guards prepared for battle and makes his way to the courtyard to investigate the young man's claim. So far,everything seemed quiet,almost eerily quiet,but he didn't see any signs of a dragon having been here...yet.
He quickly scans the courtyard,the village and even the skies like he was expecting the beast to swoop down and attack any minute before one of the guards rushed towards him.
"Your highness,you need to get to safety,it's still here somewhere!" The guard said frantically as reinforcements tumbled out of the castle. Judging by the fear in the man's eyes,the king determined that the young guardsman was indeed telling the truth.
"Where is it?" He asked urgently only fore the guard to shrug and look up at the sky every other second. "I don't know,it chased one of our men here then disappeared. It maybe getting ready for..." He said before being interrupted by a faint roar,which was followed by the sound of wings flapping.
All eyes shot straight to the sky before the guard who was trying to talk the king back inside noticed a shadow moving through the clouds. "Gods help us,here it comes again!" He cried as the shadow glides along the wall before engulfing it and anyone up on it in a raging inferno.
The rest of the guards scattered and fired various projectiles at the dragon in an attempt to bring it down as their comrades burned alive,their screams echoing through the village before the dragon unleashed another furious roar and circles around for another attack.
"It's too fast,I can't get a bead on it!" A guard shouted before hearing a deafening shriek then being snatched off of the wall and dropped into the fjord as the dragon turned and incinerates another group of guards with it's firey breath,simply shaking off everything they threw his way.
"Your highness,please go back inside,you'll be safer!" The guard said quickly before noticing the dragon's fire creeping closer to them then pushing the king out of the way at the last minute.
King Adgar looked up as the dragon glides over them then swoops down to snatch another guard from the wall. He hesitated for a minute before finally heading back into the castle to make sure his family was safe.
As the king retreats inside,a shadow starts moving through the courtyard,not even stirring a ripple when he did as the dragon's rampage was really all the guards could focus on at the moment.
Elsa was thinking about what she did to Anna when they were little,crying and hugging herself as she tried to keep from losing control of her powers before the slaughter outside catches her attention and makes her rush to the window.
Her jaw drops when she noticed the black and purple blur circling the castle,incinerating the guards and occasionally swooping down to snatch one off the wall and drop them into the fjord.
She started slowly backing away from the window as ice started creeping up the walls and almost completely freezes her room which made her fear grow until she heard the dragon roaring outside then fires an ice blast at the window,shattering it on impact.
The dragon heard the glass shattering after dropping another guard into the fjord and turns his attention to Elsa's room,feeling the icy breeze coming from the window on his scales and smelling her fear which had followed the gale and made him hungry.
The beast shot his head to the guards then incinerate another group before departing and making his way to Elsa. She panicked when the dragon started flying towards her and creates an ice wall to try and keep it out.
She shivers when it's shadow eclipsed her room through the ice wall then disappeared for a moment. A light sigh escaped her lips when it was gone,but her relief was short lived when it returned and stops just outside her window,her eyes locking on the beast's unearthly silhouette when it did.
The dragon rears his head back,which made Elsa think it was literally sucking the life out of her until it assaults the ice wall with it's fiery breath. She flinched when the inferno struck,but luckily her barricade was holding together if only long enough for her to ready herself.
When the ice wall shattered,Elsa attempted to raise another to fight off the flames only for it to fail. However,the shock wave from the blast sent her flying backwards and stunned the dragon for a moment.
She yelped lightly when she skits across the ground and looks back to see the dragon trying to regain itself,which she used as an opportunity to try and escape only to find a fire wall splitting her room in half.
The beast snarls irritably and locked it's eyes on her as he rears his head back again,preparing to finish her off. She cringed as she awaits the inevitable and could feel the heat of it's breath engulfing her until...
"JOOR ZAH FRUL!" A voice thunders through the castle,making it's very foundation shutter at it's force as an aqua colored light flickers through the sky and making the dragon hiss like he was injured before it flies off.
Elsa started slowly opening her eyes when she heard it fly off then rushes back to the window to see what happened before noticing a figure in glowing spiked armor and wielding an outlandish longsword which had lightning dancing along the blade.
She studies the strange warrior curiously until she noticed the dragon land right in front of him,however the warrior didn't flinch or hesitate as his foe reared his head back and studies him angrily.
"Dovahkiin! Hi fen dir daar sul!" The dragon snarls irritably as his adversary meets his gaze and takes a defensive stance. "Hin pahlok fen kos hin oblaan." The man responded in a simple tone before the beast snaps at him only for him to step out of the way and slashed him across his snout before backing away a little then raising his left hand as ice forms around it.
He fires a small ice storm towards the dragon and starts strafing to the side until the dragon recovered from the blow to his head. "GAAN LAH HAAS!" He shouted towards the man as he emits a wave of dark purple energy from it's maw and strikes it's target,draining some of his energy and staggering him for a moment.
"KRII LUN AUS!" He shouts in return as he jumps to his feet and making the dragon stagger and hiss before turning towards his adversary and preparing to incinerate him. "WULD NAH KEST!" The man shouts again before flying forward in a blur,striking one of the dragon's wings as he glides by him and making him stumble.
The beast regained himself and strikes his foe with his wing,which made him stumble forward as the dragon attempts to snap his head off. "FO KRAH DIIN!" The stranger shouts when the dragon's jaws shot open,sending a wave of ice and frost down his throat,catching the rest of his head in the wave when he did.
He just barely managed to dodge the beast's jaws then slash at his neck before standing up by his other wing and slashing at it. The dragon hissed when the blade bites into his flesh and snaps at the warrior's back,sending him flying forward before he catches himself before firing a powerful bolt of lightning at the dragon then following it up with a long thin sliver of ice,which both hit their mark before it takes off again.
The man watched the dragon take flight again before raising his hand again then summoning some kind of spectral bow accompanied by a set of arrows and pulling one back,his eyes watching the beast's every move as he circled the castle.
He followed the dragon's movements until he got a clear enough shot before releasing it then notching another after the first hits. The dragon hissed when the arrow bit into his hide then turns his attention back to his foe and starts engulfing the courtyard in flames in an attempt to finish him off.
The man strafes to the side when he noticed the inferno coming towards him then strafes to the side before releasing his second arrow and hitting the dragon under his wing. "JOOR ZAH FRUL!" He shouts,interrupting his enemy's assault as the aqua light flickered through the sky again and makes him circle around again before landing on the wall.
Elsa trembled nervously as she watched the battle,finding herself paralyzed with fear despite her mind screaming for her to run before her room burned down with her in it,although she was unaware that she put the flames out while she was watching this grudge match.
The dragon glares at his foe as he unleashed a barrage of arrows on him before attempting to incinerate him again. "FUS RO DAH!" The man shouts,interrupting the inferno and staggering the dragon before firing at him again.
The beast takes off again after regaining himself and circles around behind his adversary in an attempt to ambush him. The man looks around after the dragon vanished,notching another arrow just in case.
After a few moments,the dragon's deafening shriek echoed through the courtyard as he snatched the man off the ground and attempts to drop him into the fjord only for him to grab onto his foot and start climbing up his leg.
He pulls himself up on the dragon's back and carefully navigates his way across while pushing through the heavy gales that were trying to throw him off,pulling his sword as did. He crouched down when he made it to the beast's wings and grabs one of his scales to steady himself when it shot up into the sky.
The force of the dragon's ascent nearly dragged the man off,but he managed to hang on until he found his moment. When the wind slowed down a little,he pulled his sword up to the middle of his foes wings then drove it through his back before ripping it out and severing his wings.
The dragon shrieked in pain when the blade ripped through his back and tries to flap his wings to keep altitude without much success. He starts plummeting to the ground after a moment and lets out a furious roar before he skids through the forest,the impact flinging his enemy from his back when he stopped.
The guards,staff,citizens and even most of the royal family looked towards the forest when they heard the commotion and each tried to make their way to the scene to see what happened and what would happen next. Both,the dragon and this mysterious warrior each stumbled to stand up,although the dragon had more trouble due to his recent handicap.
The beast finally managed to gain enough footing before glaring at his enemy furiously. "Pahlok joor! Dir ko maar!" He snarled before casting his fiery breath at the man again who jumped out of the way at the last second. "FO KRAH DIIN!" He shouts before the powerful icy blast sends the dragon stumbling back.
He starts pelting his adversary with lightning bolts while he regained himself. "GAAN LAH HAAS!" The dragon shouts,sending the dark purple blast flying towards him again. "FEIM ZII GRON!" The man shouts,taking on a spectral form before the attack hits him,allowing it to phase through his body without harm.
"WULD NAH KEST!" He shouts again,flinging himself towards the dragon and striking him across the snout before stopping. The dragon snarls and snaps at him,making him stagger a bit. "Gah!" He grunted before hitting the beast with a steady stream of frost.
The dragon hissed when the ice hits him then tries to hit his foe with one of his wings,only for it to give out and make him stumble. "GAAN LAH HAAS!" The man shouts,making the dragon stumble again as the dark purple energy saps some of his foe's strength and drains it into his body.
The beast gives him a furious,but dazed look as he drew closer,the lightning dancing down his blade and the glow of his spectral armor being the only things he could really make out as he tries to strike him down again before feeling an ice spike pierce his head.
When the man was within striking distance,he raises his sword then drives it through the defeated dragon's head,finishing him off. He pulls the blade from the beast's head before cleaning the blade then sheathing it,listening to the footsteps quickly approaching the scene as the dragon's skin started burning away.
The people of Arendelle,led by king Adgar himself arrived just as the wind sent the dragon's soul into the warrior's body and leaving nothing but a skeleton behind afterwards. "By the gods..." One of the villagers murmured as everyone studied the dragon's remains in awe.
The king approached the skeleton with his mouth agate and starts examining it,with everyone else following suit soon after. "I...I don't even know..." He stuttered quietly,still shocked after everything he witnessed today before remembering the strange man who actually killed the beast then turns around to thank him for his help only to learn that he was gone.
He looks around curiously,hoping to find signs of where he may have went,but found nothing,not even footprints. "Who...or what is he...?" He mutters to himself in confusion as he tries to contemplate how this one man not only stood toe to toe with a dragon and kill it,but just vanish without so much as a sound or any other trace of him ever being present.
After a few moments,he pushes the thought out of his head and turns back to the dragon's remains before approaching his people. "We should get back to Arendelle...before something else shows up." He suggests,making everyone nod lightly before following him back to the city.
When everyone made it back and the mess the dragon made was cleaned up,king Adgar went to check on Elsa to find her sitting on the edge of her bed looking at what was left of her window,noticing the ice covering the room and the burn marks lining the floor.
"Elsa...are you alright?" He asked in a concerned tone. She didn't say anything,but nods in confirmation as he comes to sit down with her. "What happened...?" She asks quietly,making her father hesitate for a moment. "Someone...killed the dragon." He said as calmly as he could,still not quite believing what he saw himself.
She studied him curiously when he told her,noticing the disbelief in his eyes. "Who...?" She asks softly,making him shrug lightly. "He...was gone before I could get a good look at him..." He answers hesitantly,making her nod a little before laying her head against his chest.
He drapes his arm around her as the guard captain enters the room,his attention locked on them. "Is this a bad time...?" He asked calmly,making the king look at him for a moment then back at his daughter. "Elsa...?" He starts before she looks up at him.
"It's okay..." She said calmly,making him nod a little before standing up. "I'll be right back,okay?" He says softly,making her nod lightly before they hug each other. He follows the guard captain into the corridor when they let go and noticed the kind of urgent look in his eyes.
"Do you..." The king starts before the guard captain starts shaking his head. "I've seen some outlandish things in my may,your highness...I've never seen anything like that. But,when he did whatever that was that forced it to the ground,I heard them speaking to each other in some strange language before their little grudge match...and I heard them using what I took to be the same language during the fight." He says calmly,making Adgar study him curiously.
"Are you saying they were using a form of magic?" He asked calmly,making the captain shrug. "It's possible...all I know is that most every time they did it...strange things happened." He said simply,making the king think for a minute.
"But,what's important right now is that to see if we can figure out where that dragon came from and how to prepare for another one just in case...and see if we can't find out a little more about our mysterious savior." The guard captain said calmly before the king nods in agreement...
Well...I was gonna try and come up with something that didn't have to do with "Frozen" before writing anything else about it...
That didn't work out too well,so here's a crossover to tide y'all over,how bout we see where it goes?
