Words: ca. 3,000  Setting: Modern AU Lemon: no CW: Swearing and name calling

***

Tonight, on Arendelle News Network. Westergaard Groups has secured rights on the coin of the kingdom Arendelle. The coin, which has the observe of two ruling Queens of the kingdom of Arendelle in the 19th century, took the world by storm early this year. The coin confirmed the theory of two female monarchs rule the kingdom after being debated for decades.

The CEO of Westergaard Groups has assigned Hans Westergaard to be responsible for the safety of the coin. The young and capable Hans has been favored out of thirteen brothers.

However, the coin may be targeted by high-profile robbery groups. The infamous Snow Sisters has a tracked record of successful heist that has caused fear among security firms. Rumor has it the elder sister possesses ice power that contribute to their success but no confirmation on the claim. The coin may be their next target.

When asked about the Snow Sister, the CEO believes Hans could handle the responsibility. He had faith with the young prodigy to keep the company’s most valuable item in good hands.

Westergaard Groups also holds other ornaments and artifacts in its collection.

The car drove into the falling rain at midnight. Puddles of water slush through as the car goes by. It was Elsa’s favorite weather, next to snow because she was in her element. As she was born with ice and snow powers, she had a knack with water since snow was just frozen water. She was more confident than she normally would. Which is important for tonight’s heist.

They received a job a month ago to rob the medieval form the Westergaard Groups. The client was interested in the symbolic of the coin and would be ashamed if the coin was kept by someone who didn’t appreciate history. The job was from one of Elsa’s oldest clients. Not that Anna knew who they were since the older sister was the one who dealt with them. Anna would usually prepare the gears and come up with the plans. Elsa gave her second opinion on it. Most of the time, Elsa agreed with Anna’s plan which made her really happy.

It was a simple heist job. Nothing too difficult for them. Especially when Hans overseers the security. Oh, she had not heard that name for a long time. That douchebag of a child wanted to guard the coin. As if he was something to prove to his others 13 brothers or something. Could not wait to see his face when he found out the coin was no longer under their possession anymore.

They arrived at the targeted location, the Westergaard tower or what Anna would call it, the Dick tower. The reason was the phallus-like design, similar to a certain human’s body part (no need to describe it). So fitting with the family’s personality.

Based on Anna’s research, the coin stored at the underground level of the tower. Secured inside a vault with sophisticated security and what not. Luckily for the snow sisters, Hans and his men were idiots and left some loopholes that the sisters could exploit. Was it intentional or not wasn’t the matter, all that mattered was that this heist would be done swiftly.

Elsa’s blue eyes met with Anna’s green eyes. No word needed to exchange as they could communicate by staring at each other in the eyes. But as usual, Anna stole a peck on the lips. Elsa still falls for it after many Anna had done it. A hint of blush could even be seen under dim light from the dashboard, making Anna so satisfied that Elsa was still a shy person under those regal and serious demeanors. It never got old.

Elsa parked the car across the street and went outside. Elsa stood facing the tower and Anna joined her afterward while put on her hoodie. The falling rain-soaked Elsa’s uncovered hair. Even though Anna found it silly to not cover it, the sight of her sister was breathtaking. The look of determination and focus made Anna feel hot inside.

Focus, Anna. Focus. Be like Elsa. You have an important job tonight. The plan is simple, break in and break out, and nobody gets hurt.

Anna’s inner hype vanished when a chill hand held hers. Anna turned her head to see Elsa gave her a warmest smile.

Would be great if this was a date?

Even since they started their career five years ago, they have been working non-stop. Started from a small chocolate house and slowly raised to the banks and vaults. Anna was there every step of the way at her sister’s side. She and Elsa worked as a team efficiently. Able to know to do and what each other thought was a blessing and an advantage in the field.

Although Anna could not help but wished to have at least kept one of the items that they stole. She knew those items for the clients and breaking their trust would be bad for them, but the stolen items caught Anna’s eyes. And tonight, was no differ.

Elsa walked alone to the main lobby. There were two guards sitting behind the counter, one of them was looking at their phone and the other was asleep. The loud footsteps from Elsa’s hills alerted the guard. He snapped at Elsa’s direction, “Ma’am, this place is closed.”

And with that, Elsa’s raincoat dropped and so did the guards’ jaws. She revealed the bodice that hugged her body, showing her model-like silhouette. Her eyes opened half-way and nipped her lips. Elsa sauntered with a wide swing of the hips. Footsteps on the marble floor reverb in the lobby, mesmerized for those who heard them.

The guard dropped everything that he was doing, and his partner opened his eyes wide open. The guard suddenly collapsed and snoozed away after Anna zapped them from behind. Anna took the access card from them.

“Damn perverts. I hate it when they look at you like that!”

“It can be like that sometimes,” she holds her hand, “Jealous?”

“No.” Elsa gave her a smirk. “Okay, yes. I’m jealous, so what?”

“Don’t worry,” Elsa stood closer to Anna, “I only have eyes on you.“

Gosh, Elsa. You’re making me flustered.

“You’re welcome. Nice shot, by the way. You always amazed me with your sharpshooting.” said the elder.

This was going to be a difficult night.

***

Rows of monitors stood in hanged on the wall. The two night watch monitored the tower’s CCTV to see any unusual activities. One of them spotted one.

“Look, the camera on hall six is foggy again.”

“Relax, sometimes the camera got foggy. It happened a few times before.”

The guard looked back to the monitor, “Hope nothing bad happens tonight.”

***

They walked to the hallway to the vault. Since the CCTV has been dealt with, Anna could zap the other guards with ease. She asked Elsa to obscure the vision of those cameras by fogging the lens. The older sister used the vent to channel her power to reach out the camera. It alerted them to the anomaly in the first week but died down after a month. They think it was a normal occurrence by now.

The vault finally opened after a conversation with the guards, which may boil Anna’s blood by how friendly the conversation went. The coin displayed inside the glass display box in the middle of the vault. The camera will not be problem, but Anna took out a can and sprayed it around the vault. Lasers can be seen along the path.

“Allowed me,” said Anna.

Anna slithering her way through the web of lasers. She had trained back at their safehouse by replicating the laser exactly as now. She took a month of training so she could do this without break a sweat.  She glanced at her sister and pleased to find out she was watching her intently. Every step she took brings her closer to the coin. Anna could see the intricate detail of the coin. The engraving of the 19th century monarch was so detailed, Anna could see the faint freckles on Queen Anna.

She had seen the coin before, based on her research and planning, but when looked at them up closely, nothing short of breath taking. Two queens ruled the kingdom side by side. Not only that, but they were also sisters. Talked about defying the status quo of the 19th century. Lesbian and incest, such scandalous. She wondered how they managed to live life with such a controversial lifestyle. From what she researched, the youngest was warm while the elder was cold. Together, they made up a great pair. No wonder why they ended up together.

Anna reached in front of the display. She sprayed more to see there were any hidden lasers, which were none. She looked around the display, only to find out the coin placed on seemed to be a pressure sensitive detector as she expected. She brings out a dummy coin which weighs the same as the coin. But she needed a placeholder while switching the coin.

When she was ready, she lifted the glass display and slipped a chewing gum on the detector. She needed to do it previously. Failure to achieve might activate the lockdown procedure and trap them inside. She applied pressure on it and lifted the coin. So far, everything went well. She put the dummy coin on the stand and kept the coin inside the cushioned case. She admired it for a few seconds before storing it inside her bag.

She slithered her way back to her sister. She moved a bit suggestively this time to see if she could make her sister flustered. She stretched and bended her body inhumanly. The laser was all forgotten. She locked her eyes with her sister. She trusted her instinct to cross the laser field. Anna put a bit more stretched on her acrobatic because why not.

Anna safely out her laser field and judging from Elsa’s expression, she quite enjoyed the show from her little sister. Eyes dilated and lip biting. Elsa pulled her sister and pinned her on the wall, followed by a chaste kiss.

“You did it on purpose, didn’t you?”

“Don’t know. You judge me,” Anna smirked.

Elsa kissed her again. This time, the kiss lingered longer. After a while, they parted lips. The older sister rested her forehead on the little one.

“I’m glad you’re okay, Anna.”

“I know. I like when you worry about me.”

“Always.” Another peck from Elsa. Anna addicted with the kiss. She just wanted more.

“C’mon, let’s get out here.”

***

“Wanna play a bet?” said the guard.

“What is it?”

“We guess which camera will be foggy next. Every time you’re right, I’ll give you ten euros, and every time I’m right, you have to give me ten euros. If either of us are right, we keep our money.”

“Sound fun. Let’s bet.”

“Deal.”

***

They walked out after a successful heist.  However, a figure stood tall at the end of the door. Elsa and Anna cautiously walked towards it. Anna could see familiarity, however.

“We meet again, Anna,” the figure spoke.

Oh, it was him.

“Anna, you met Hans before.”

She sighed in defeat, “Yes, I met him before. He’s my ex from high school,” said Anna timidly.

“And you’re still cunning as always. Do you have any idea how long I’ve waited for this moment? Ever since the foggy CCTV, I knew it was you two doing. I stayed up all night for the past month. Everyone thinks I’m crazy for staying up late because I was expecting you two to come.”

“Looks like you plan worked, Anna.”

“Yup, poor Hans for being responsible. Just like I planned.”

“Excuse me, Miss Elsa. I hope you wouldn’t mind if I talk to you sister.” Said Hans.

“Proceed, ” Elsa said in monotone.

“How are you being? I heard you’re fucking with your sister now. Gosh, I’m glad I broke up with you.”

Anna gritted her teeth to stiffen her anger. Hans and his snarky remark always made her blood boiled. She glad she with Elsa now.

“Shut up, Hans. That’s none of your business. Besides, I’m the one who broke up with you. You cheated on me. I can’t believe you’re dating someone else behind my back.”

“At least I didn’t fuck my own siblings.”

“That doesn’t make you less of an asshole.”

“Whatever, sister fucker. Now that our past is settled, let’s talk about the present. The coin?”

“Sorry, this thing is on its way to the new owner.” said Anna.

“You know I won’t let that happen.” 

“Oh yeah, what are gonna do? Stop us?”

“I do what I must.”

He brings out something from this back. A rifle-like contraption with a tank placed on top of it.

“Behold, ze flammenwerfer.”

“Why does he call that in German?” said Elsa.

“He does that sometimes. To make him look smart by being bilingual. I may have liked him back then because of it,” said Anna.

“Is that why you always flustered whenever I speak in our mother language?” Elsa smirked.

She could not hide the blush crept into her face as a flash of memory hit her. “What? No, of course not,” said Anna.

“Er du sikker på det?”

“De… de… definitely.”

“Ladies, I’m right here.”

“We will continue this later,” said Elsa. “May I know why you’re in charge with security?”

“As you know, I was chosen by my father to guard the coin. All my thirteen brothers were against his decision, but I managed to persuade him to give me the task, with a catch. I need to prove myself worthy to bestow this position. And what better way to prove by capturing the infamous Snow Sister. Now, you two are here. I shall capture you both and show you to my father that I’m worthy and proving to my brothers they were wrong.”

Hans ignited the flame thrower, “With the power of fire, I shall stop you…”

An ice blast pushed him back and pinned to the wall with ice. His flammenwerfer fortunately survived from the blast. He struggled to move as the ice covered his lower torso and both his arms.

“He brags a lot, doesn’t he?” Elsa said.

“Yeah. He won’t stop talking. Always talk about this and that.”

“Good thing you broke up with him.”

The sisters walked to poor Hans stuck on the wall. He still tried to free himself from the frost but with no avail.

“You two are going to pay for this.”

“I don’t think so, playboy.” Anna snide.

He grunted. “Go and run off with sister, Anna. You’re disgusting, sister fucker.”

Anna was about to punch him only to be stop by Elsa.

“Yes, Anna is a sister fucker because she only fucks me. Unlike you, womanizer.”

“Fuck off.”

“We will.”

“Say hi to your thirteen brothers and your father. I’m sure they will be proud of you.” They fled off from the tower.

“Curse you, Snow Sisters!”

***

“This is ridiculous.” 

“Said the loser. While I am 100 euros richer tonight.”

He grunted by the loss. As the fog faded, he saw someone familiar. “Hey, it’s that the boss?”

“Yeah. Oh shit. Scramble the alarms! The Snow Sisters are here!”

***

The alarm blared after they went outside. but the police arrived at the scene. The shower of rain still poured when they got out.

With a flick of her finger, ice shards formed at the bottom of the police’s car. It punched the tires and froze the door the prevent the policemen from getting out. Another flick, wind rushed through from the west. Frost started to build up as the temperature of the surrounding plummeted to subzero. The police had to keep their body low to prevent them from being blown out of the place.

Some of the cops attempted to chase them but their vehicles broke down due to the extreme weather.

While chaos ensued, the snow sisters used this chance to get to their car. Elsa led the way, holding her sister’s hand as she guided through the snowstorm. They giggled along the way in. After safely boarding the car, Elsa turned on the car and zoomed out from there. The snowstorm slowly faded away as they drove away.

***

“Um, Elsa. I want to tell you something.”

“Is it something important?”

“Yes.”

The one of Elsa’s hands left the steering wheel and pressed the autopilot button. The car chimed to indicate the car had engaged the autopilot. Only then, Elsa let go of the steering wheel and turned her head towards Anna.

“I’m listening,” Elsa said.

The stern voice from Elsa left Anna goosebumps. She was a woman with focus and when she focused, she would give full attention to the subject matter. And that subject matter now was her little sister. Anna gulped as she tried to proceed with her conversation.

“I was thinking if we could take a break from this,” she paused to see if there were any reaction from Elsa. Since there were none, Anna continued, “It’s been five years since we began our career and we’ve been working non-stop since. I was hoping we could go somewhere where no one knows. Just you and me. Spending time together and forget the world for a while.”

The stern from before softened and a smile crept to the elder’s face, “Anna, you have no idea how long I am longing this moment. The truth is, this was meant to be our last job.”

“Wait, what? Really?”

“As you said, we spent so much of our time into our career that we didn’t spend time for ourselves.” Elsa held Anna’s hand. “And actually, this job wasn’t for a client. It’s actually a personal reason. And it was for you.”

“Me?”

“Yes. I never gifted you anything all those years and tonight I wanted to change that. The coin symbolizes two sisters who engaged one another to become one. I want to be like that with you. I want us to become a thing.”

Elsa took the coin and placed it in Anna’s hand. Anna could not believe her wishes had finally come true. To spend time with her sister together and also the coin.

“Thank you,” said Anna sincerely.

“You’re most welcome. Jeg elsker deg, Anna.”

“I love you too, Elsa.”
