Meeting the Princess
“We're almost there,” Andersen said.
Albert could see the ice palace ahead. But, still, General Order One...”
But Andersen interrupted. “Enough about the Prime Directive! Something needs to be done about this unnatural winter. I don't want to stand by and let Arendelle freeze to death.”
“I don't want them to freeze to death either, but we have to consider how we are helping.”
“It won’t be in a way that would lead to cultural contamination. One can say that the Queen already did so.”
“Not really,” Albert said. “The presence of a Queen with cryokinetic powers would obviously change things, but it wouldn’t change the culture much.”
Andersen nodded and lead the way towards the castle.
Inside the castle, Princess Anna tried to persuade her sister to come back to the city, but failed.
Kristoff ran up after seeing Anna hit by a wave Elsa had given off. “Anna. Are you okay?
“I’m okay. I’m fine,” Anna said, trying to reassure herself.
“Who’s this?” Elsa asked. “Wait, it doesn’t matter. Just, you have to go.”
“No!” Anna objected. “I know we can figure this out together.”
“How? What power do you have to stop this winter? To stop me?”
“Anna, I think we should go,” Kristoff said.
Albert and Andersen came up to the Ice Palace as a large form threw three others out of the palace.
“The Princess!” Andersen said.
Albert had his tricorder out.
“Strange...” he commented as Andersen moved forwards. He didn't know what to make of those readings. The snow creatures were reading as pure snow.
Anna didn't believe what had just happened. Elsa had her thrown out. “It's not nice to throw people!” she said to the bouncer snowman.
Kristoff grabbed her and pulled her back. “All right, fancy pants. Calm down. Just let the snow man be.”
“Let me at him,” Anna said. She then saw two strangers approaching.
“The Queen threw you out?” the female of the two asked, with curiosity in her voice.
“Yes. My own sister!” Anna said with annoyance.
“Princess Anna?” the young woman asked.
“Yes, who's asking?” Kristoff asked.
“I'm Lena. We're travellers who were in Arendelle for the coronation,” the young woman, Lena, answered.
“I'm Leonard,” the other traveller said, indicating himself.
“You can help us get back in the castle,” Anna said.
“That's not a good idea,” Kristoff objected. “You saw what happened.”
“There has to be a way,” Anna said.
“Is there another way into that ice castle?” Lena asked.
“I'm not sure,” Anna answered. “But we have to try.”
“Let’s try it,” Kristoff said.
