Chapter 1:

A large black dragon loomed over a mountain of mutilated corpses. His keen eye spotted another creature at the base of the mountain. The dragon had a single red eye in the centre of his skull. The creature was quite large with large horns and a humanoid body.

It turned and looked up at the dragon. With a hateful snarl it picked up a large arm from the pile of corpses and hurled it at the dragon. The dragon spread its mighty black wings as it shoot up into the air above the arm.

The dragon shot down on top of the demon. There were several loud snaps of bone as the demon was crushed under the dragon. The dragon looked down at the monster below him. Its single eye flashed red as it leaned down towards the creature.

"Where is your master?" It growled. The creature gasped. "Somewhere far away." It spat. The dragon growled .

"Wrong answer." It roared then released a large amount of black flames onto the beast from his mouth. With the creature dead the great black dragon turned and glanced around at the destroyed land around him. His red eye focused on a small white dot in the distance. As the dot got closer he recognised it as another dragon. This dragon was much larger than him and was white in colour. This dragon landed beside the black.

"What news?" The black one said. The white one raised its head slightly as it spoke. " The red armies are moving west and we still haven't located the source of the demon problem." The black dragon nodded.

"I will meet with Saphira to try and broker peace until the demons are dealt with."

Zoran jolted awake. He was covered in sweat and was panting. His red eyes glanced around frantically. He only calmed when he saw the sleeping figure beside him. Seeing Elsa's chest rise and fall, seeing her loose strains of hair across her peaceful expression steadied his nerves and slowed his breaths.

Gently he drew a few strands from her face and kissed her cheek. Then he got up and walked to the window. It had been three weeks since he had gotten a good night's sleep. Both he and Elsa had been plagued by nightmares every night. Both of them had been waking up every night. They had tried sleeping potions, herbs to prevent dreams even having Anna reading a bedtime story.

(That little episode had ended with Zoran yelling. "This isn't working" and pushing Anna out of the room.) Zoran heard panting behind him. Elsa was thrashing around in her sleep. Zoran when over to her and firmly held her still.

"Elsa, dear wake up." He gently shook her and called her softly until she woke up. She had the same frantic look on her and Zoran felt a slight pain as her hands froze part of his. "Elsa you're safe. It was just a dream." Elsa's expression turned calm as her breath slowed. She looked down at his hands which were intertwined with his. She gasped as she saw the light layer of frost on his hands.

"Oh gosh, I'm sorry I didn't hurt you did I?" Zoran smiled and shook his head. "Always thinking of others." He said to her. She then asked him. "Did you find out anything new?" Zoran shook his head. Elsa nodded. "Same every night. What do you think it means?" Zoran shrugged.

"It obviously has something to do with our powers. That black dragon breaths my black fire and we're the only ones who are having the dream." There was a second on silence before Zoran said. "Do you want hot chocolate?" Elsa chuckled.

"Sure." The two of them go up and made their way down to the kitchen. It was very late and most of the castle was still asleep. When the pair entered the kitchen they found a small boy with his head in a drawer. Elsa put her hands on her hips and said.

"Jack." Zoran found it highly amusing that Jack was frozen by Elsa's words much better than her powers. Jack turned with his hands behind his back and smiled sweetly. Alarm bells went off in Zoran's head. The smile was too sweet.

"Hi Auntie Elsa and Uncle Zoran." Ever since Lucia and Julian had moved in a year and a half ago Elsa had quickly proven herself to be a master with Jack. She knew instantly when he was in trouble and didn't melt when he tried to use a cute face with her. Elsa tapped her foot and stretched a hand out towards him. Jack sighed and brought his hands in front of him.

Zoran was not surprised to see they contained several cookies. He placed the cookies in Elsa's hands. Elsa looked down at the cookies then back at Jack. She gestured him to continue and raised an eyebrow. Jack sighed again and took out two cookies from his sleeves. Elsa then smiled.

"It's past your bedtime." Jack nodded. Elsa then gestured at the door. "Go to sleep. Your mom and dad wouldn't want to hear that you were up this late eating cookies would they?" Jack shook his head. "No Auntie Elsa." Then he dashed out the door to his room. Zoran chuckled. "I'll never understand how you can read him so well." Elsa smiled.

"I don't know either. Call it an instinct." Zoran smiled. "It will serve you well if we ever have kids." Elsa froze (no pun intended). Zoran looked at her then said. "Sorry I didn't mean to scare you, it was just a joke." Elsa relaxed somewhat. As she watched him slowly heat up the milk she couldn't help but think.

"Are we ever going to get that far?" True they had only been dating for eleven months but Elsa was already wondering if they were going to take the next step. Ever since they started dating they had been so happy. Elsa loved Zoran and wanted to take the next step but was also nervous about it. She was so happy with things the way they are that she was terrified that if she threw marriage into the mix she might spoil their happiness.

Elsa didn't want to do that to Zoran or herself. So she bit her tongue and waited. Zoran gave her a hot chocolate before he sat down with his. "Any theory's?" He said. Elsa shook her head. "None. It doesn't make sense. Is it a warning a vision of the past or the future or is something that happens in the dream the reason we have our powers?" Zoran thought for a minute.

"Maybe it's all of them?2 Elsa sipped from her cut before saying. "What do you mean?" Zoran looked away thoughtfully. "Maybe it's a warning. So in order to warn us whatever is controlling this dream is showing us the past or how our powers were created." Elsa looked at him oddly. Zoran shrugged. "I'm just guessing." Elsa shook her head.

"No, your theory is surprisingly plausible it's just what does what we've been seeing tell us?" Zoran shrugged.

"Don't know. Maybe we're not seeing the entire message?" Elsa placed her hand on her chin before yawning.

"Maybe we should try to sleep before we speculate further?" Zoran nodded. They both downed their cups and left for their bed. As they walked in the hall they heard sobbing. Zoran and Elsa both looked at each other. "I'll do it you have that important historic discovery tomorrow." Zoran said. "You sure?" Elsa asked. Zoran nodded and ran down the hall.

"I'm positive." Elsa continued to bed as Zoran entered another room. He could see Lucia and Julian in bed together but his focus was on the crib in the corner. Quickly he made his way over to the crib and gently picked up his sobbing niece. Quickly he took her out of the room and down to the kitchen. The baby looked up at him through sobs then she pulled a face and started crying. Zoran's eyes widened.

"Shh… Caroline, it's okay. Don't cry little one." Caroline was a sickly baby. She was very thin and sometimes struggled breathing. Lucia would often sleep with Caroline beside her and gently encourage her as the baby fell asleep. Elsa had to be very careful not to accidentally give her a cold. Caroline started coughing and hacking. Zoran placed her over his shoulder and gently patted her back. "Just get it out baby girl. Get it out." He encouraged her.

Caroline eventually stopped coaching but Zoran was even more worried. Mucus covered both his shoulder and her lips. He looked down sadly at his niece.

"You're gonna be okay Caroline. You're a strong one you won't still be here if you weren't." The seven month old baby looked up at him then burped. Zoran chuckled and the girls put her fist to her mouth and smiled cutely. She had grown a large amount of long brown hair very quickly but her eyes matched her fathers. Zoran leaned down and kissed her forehead. Caroline gurgled as she grabbed at his face. Zoran however pulled away.

"No Caroline I can't play now. I need to get you cleaned up and to bed." A few minutes later with both himself and Caroline clean Caroline immediately started crying again. Zoran looked sadly down at his niece. "You won't cut us a break will ya, ya little trouble maker." Then sat down on a chair and gently rocked Caroline until she calmed down and eventually the two fell asleep.

Two hooded figure stood overlooking Arendelle. The smaller of the two rubbed his hands together. "The artefact shall be delivered to the archives here tomorrow." The taller of the two turned to him. He wore a black and red porcelain mask. His voice was deep and threatening.

"For the sake of your family I hope it does." The smaller man shrunk back as the bigger man stepped forward. Then in one quick motion the big man snapped the smaller man's neck. The man turned back to the kingdom.

"I will fulfill the wishes of the Lords." He said as he rushed down towards the kingdom.
