The Past has a way of returning

Chapter 1: Again you're gone

Anna was running, she realized her life was in danger when she saw the giants destroying both of the sides of the dam leaving her in the middle vulnerable. She had to jump, the dam was falling apart, she saw lieutenant Matias and Kristoff waiting for her to jump they were ready to catch her. She was petrified, she took one big breath and jumped. Anna saw Kristoff's hand getting closer, she was an inch away from him to get her.

She didn't make it… The princess heard Kristoff screaming her name, she was scared she didn't want to die not again, not yet at least. Anna saw rocks falling with her to the water and then everything was black…

"ANNAAAA!" Kristoff screamed with all his might as he watched helplessly the love of his life falling into her death and this time no act of true love would save her. He felt tears coming out of his eyes, he never got the chance to ask her… He stood there staring at the now calm waters and the destroyed dam.

He didn't know how long he was there and he didn't care, nothing mattered to him anymore… The sound of footsteps from behind him snapped him back to reality, he turned around and saw Elsa.

The Queen of Arendelle had a bright smile on her face, she was a completely different person, her hair was down and she had a new dress. She was a true Snow Queen.

"Kristoff, what's wrong? Where's Anna?" Elsa asked, a few seconds passed and she received no answer, she then looked Kristoff in the eyes. She saw the pain in them and grief, she saw tears streaming down his face something she never thought she would see in him unless….

No, she can't be…

"K-Kristoff w-where's Anna, w-where's my sister, why is she not here?" Elsa's voice trembled this time, her heartbeat was faster than normal, just like three years ago.

"TELL ME!" She yelled which was something she never thought she would do, she was close to tears, breathing hard and her body was trembling.

"E-Elsa…. I-I am sorry…." Were all the words that escaped from his mouth the truth was, he didn't know how to tell her… How do you tell someone who has spent her entire life to protect one person who she has hurt twice and the second time she almost lost her… How do you tell her that the person she cares so much about is gone and this time there is no act of true love to thaw her heart and bring her back,

"Please tell me this is a joke…Please!" Elsa had tears in her eyes now this couldn't be happening not again… She couldn't have shoved Anna away only to lead her in her death again…

"I-I wish it was… But she is gone, I wish I-I could have saved her…." Kristoff finally said and it was enough to make Elsa break down. The young Queen was now in her knees just like she was when Hans had told her that Anna was dead, the difference was there was no storm around her… Only grief.

"ANNAAAAA" Elsa cried out so loudly that her voice was heard all the way to Arendelle. The Snow Queen was completely lost in her grief and didn't realize that Kristoff was now holding her.

When Elsa finally saw that Kristoff had bear-hugged her she buried her head to his shoulder. One of the main reasons Elsa and Kristoff became great friends was the unbreakable love they shared for Anna…

As the two friends were mourning over the loss of the most important person in their lives, gale the wind spirit brought a familiar purple cloak in front of Elsa who immediately held it in her hands.

"A-Anna's cloak…" Kristoff sobbed, he saw the young Queen stroking the wet cloak.

"T-That's all we h-have from her now…"

The Arendellian soldiers and the Northuldrans were now surrounding the two mourning friends. They were all saddened by the loss of the princess. They might not know her like Kristoff and Elsa but the girl seemed to have a good heart filled with love, she was definitely a fighter and would always do the next right thing… After all, what she just did needed a lot of guts and not everyone would have the courage to do what she did even if it costed her life.

The young princess believed she had lost her big sister her best friend, yet she still found the courage to not let herself grief and do something that would destroy her entire kingdom… her home… Anna gave her life in order to rewrite a wrong. She lifted the curse bringing peace among spirits and humans. Anna became a hero to everyone's mind and heart.

Elsa was gently stroking the cloak that once belonged to her beloved baby sister… She was regretting everything, she was regretting shutting her out for thirteen years, being mad at her after the Great thaw for small things that in the end didn't matter like the one time a few weeks after the Great Thaw Anna had trashed her desk with important documents for the kingdom. Elsa had scolded her that night, she had shouted angrily at her and had made the one person she swore to protect cry, words that she didn't mean to say, luckily Anna loved her too much to stay mad and forgave her but Elsa still felt guilty… Elsa was also regretting hearing and following the voice…

Elsa might have accepted herself and found the truth but she lost something much more important to her… After all, every choice comes with a cost right?

Meanwhile, somewhere far south the now calm river carried Anna's unconscious body and gently letting it lay down to the shore.

A young man who used to be known as Prince Hans of the Southern Isles and was now exiled for the attempting murder of Queen Elsa and Princess Anna three years ago was walking nearby the river where he spotted an unconscious body.

The thirteenth prince ran quickly to the unconscious body. When he took a better look at the girl that was in front of him he gasped with shock. This was the same person he met three years ago, the same person who agreed on marrying him the same day he met her, the same person he betrayed and left her for dead, the same person who froze in front of his eyes and came back to life because she saved her sister performing an act of true love and lastly the same person who was the reason of his suffering and exile.

Anna… A mischievous smile was formed in his face, here she was his worst enemy, vulnerable in a life and death situation, injured and no one around to protect her. Hans was planning to kidnap Princess Anna for months now in order to use her as a bait for Elsa and now, he didn't even need to invade Arendelle…

Without second thoughts, after checking that Anna was still alive Hans picked her injured body in his shoulders and carried her into a dark cave, he then found a rope which he used to restrain her wrists tightly her legs didn't need to be tied her left one was already broken from the fall.

Once Hans made sure that she was secured he made sure to trap her in a place with no light and decided to treat some of her injuries just to keep her alive. After he was done with her, he left her inside the dark in order to go and bring a few supplies.

Some hours passed and the young princess slowly opened her eyes only to find darkness, she tried to move but found out that her hands were tied behind her back she tried to move her legs but that only caused her to gasp in pain.

Am I dead? If yes then why am I in pain? Before Anna could continue her thought she was blinded by a light that came from a torch after a few seconds Anna could see clearly without being blinded by the sudden light. She was now able to see that her left leg was broken and that her hands were really tied behind her back and the fact that she was again trapped in a cave.

But that's not the thing that worried her the most…. She was more worried about the person who was now standing in front of her with a mischievous grin on his face. She thought that she would never have to face him again.

"H-Hans?"

"Hello Anna, it's been a while…"

Alright, I decided to write an alternate story for frozen II where Anna doesn't make it when she jumped the dam and Kristoff doesn't catch her in time. I always wondered what would happen if she didn't make it and as for Hans, I just wanted to add a little more drama to the story. By the way, the river left Anna somewhere outside Arendelle's borders and Hans was already preparing his kidnapping so yeah… Ps: this is a replacement story for Frozen the series, at first I had an idea to make it look like tangled the series but the plot didn't make much sense and I ran out of ideas from the first chapter so I deleted it and I am replacing it with this one. I hope you enjoy it :D
