Elsa of Arendelle is one of the main protagonists of the Disney Animation animated musical film Frozen. She is the daughter of Agnarr and Iduna, the older sister of Anna, and the former queen of Arendelle. Elsa was born with the powers to manipulate ice and snow and used them to entertain her sister. However, Elsa's lack of control resulted in her living in fear of hurting anyone with her powers, and she spent much of her early life shut out from the world. Though it pained her greatly to do so, Elsa also saw it necessary to distance herself from Anna, so there would be no risk of hurting her.
After her powers were exposed and nearly harmed several people, Elsa fled Arendelle to ensure such an incident never occurred again. Despite her self-imposed exile, Elsa found peace, finally able to experiment with her powers without the fear of causing any more harm. Ultimately, Elsa was able to rekindle her relationship with her sister after learning how to fully control and appreciate her powers.
Battle vs. Mister Freeze (Comics) (by Battlefan237)[]
With the bat signal glistening in the sky, Mister Freeze, confused and irritated, wanders down the snow-covered streets of Gotham. Whoever this new criminal is, he must pay for stealing his motif of crime. However, as he approaches the city center, his anger slowly transforms to curiosity, for the quality of the snow and the cold is beyond excellent, even by his own twisted standard.
Meanwhile, right outside the ice castle, Elsa has just finished her song. Having just arrived in this city of madness for hours, Elsa cannot tell if she likes the place. The way she got welcomed was indeed far from pleasant, for as soon as she woke up, she found herself stuck in the crossfire between two groups of strangers, one of them were all dressed in circus costumes, while the other squad had their clothes painted in green and large question marks carved on their foreheads. In a sudden surge of anger and fear, she silenced them both with freezing winds conjured by her magic. A gigantic, mechanic bat also came to harass her after she froze the entire square to construct her palace, but Marshmallow easily tore the vehicle to shreds.
Now with all of those noisy intruders taken care of and the castle built, she can finally sit down and enjoy her tranquility. As she sits down at the window and stares at the city skyline that is slowly succumbing to her cold, "Maybe this isn't a bad place afterall.“ She whispers to herself, and commences upon a small nap.
"Olaf, speed up, we have to find my sister before she starts something again." Shouts Anna, as she rushes down the frozen street of Gotham, trying her best to ignore all those people stabbing and shooting at each other on both sides.Olaf waddles waggishly behind her, narrowly dodging a punch from a half-frozen Dollotron.
"Come back, little snowman , come to daddy ! You will make a good toy for piggy ! I will make you perfect !" Professor Pyg roars psychotically, commanding his undead army to pursue the duo.
Just as the madman is about to throw a meat cleaver at Anna, a shot from Tommy Eliot lands on his arm, letting the poor disney princess survive through yet another psychopath's turf.
"Hey freak, this is my f**king territory, you and your swine robots get the f**k out of the Eliot family cemetry or else I will blow all of you apart."
"Hush, hush little baby ! Stop whining ! You are too imperfect to compete with me, I will make perfect as - " A large shard of ice falls from the sky, crushing both villains into pulp.
"Oh, no,no,no, oh my god . My sister, she.. she's into another of her episodes again ! We need to find her now, immediately, we can't let any more of these poor people die because of her ! " Anna shouts, desperately as she puts all of her strength into running towards the frozen castle.
The catastrophe in the proximity of the newly-built castle is more than astonishing, even to a man like Freeze. Dozens of bodies, frozen beyond recognition, are scattered randomly around the remains of what used to be Gotham library. From the purple suit and the question mark cane, Victor is able to spot two old acquiantances. "Finally, something delightful aside from this beautiful feeling of coldness. " Victor smirks, as he kicks aside Joker's corpse and continues his crusade.
What comes into his sight right after he reaches the castle's gate makes him shudder in his mechanical suit - the body of a familiar reptilian man is violently tossed out of the open gate by a monstrous being whose height nearly topples Giganta and sent flying right into the ruins of Iceberg Lounge, making a loud shattering noise as it destroys the frozen stage.
"I have underestimated this new player. Fortunately, I have brought my own subzero army. " Freeze contemplates, as he orders his zombie minions to march forward and challenge the beast. The first two zombies bites the dust instantly, as Marshmallow stomps them into ashes. The third one gets lifted up quicky and tossed out of sight as well. The remaning ones, sensing that they are no match for this great beast, opens fire with their guns, freezing the lower parts of Marshmallow and temporarily restricting its movement. This allows Victor to gently walks past the ice giant and explores upstairs.
"Who are you ? And what have you done to Marshmallow ? " Asks Elsa, alertly, as she raises up her hands, putting up a defensive pose.
"Ah, Marshmallow, such a sweet name. It's a pity that it is bonded to such a ugly beast. Regardless, god do works in mysterious ways. You have taken Nora away from me, but now you are returning her to me, with a talent of cold, just like me. "
"I have no idea about what you are saying, but please get out of my castle and release Marshmallow from his pain. Or else I will hurt you , just like I hurt those people outside."
"Yes, yes , my princess of ice, I am leaving ,but you are leaving with me. Your power....beyond amazing. Your gene that brings you such talent, will definitely bring such talent to Nora. This time...this time....maybe I can finally find a cure for her condition ! " Yelling excitedly, Mister Freeze grabs Elsa violently by the arm, pulling her downstairs.
Enraged, Elsa shoots out a beam of snow from her hand, sending Freeze tumbling down the stairs. "Intriguing. The way you maneuver the cold is almost magical. But as a scientist, I have methods which are way more pragmatic." Freeze activates his gun, shooting out a ice pillar which pins Elsa onto the wall.
The paralyzing pain inflicted by Mister Freeze's killing tool soon overwhelms all of Elsa's senses, sending her into panic. "Arrrrrrrrrrrrrr ! " The princess roars in agony, as she feebly shoots out disoriented beams of snow and ice particles from the tips of her fingers, trying in vain to resist the pressure of the ice. As Mister Freeze presses harder, the ice expands, covering more parts of Elsa's body and eventually veiling her face. The difficulty of breathing and the excruciating pain slowly pushes Elsa to a complete coma, as Mister Freeze grins devilishly.
"Time for you is now frozen. Your world will remain at absolute zero until I defrost you for operation. No pain. No sensation. No regrets. God, how I envy you. But soon, I will have no need to feel envious, for my Nora will be back, and Gotham is mine to rule . " Images of him as the warlord of the deserted Gotham with Nora as his queen flashes in his brain, as Victor laughs wildly, obviously oblivious about the changing weather outside the window.
"Ye fooled me before, lady ! But ye shall not fool ol' Stingaree twice ! For I, the king of seven seas, will behead you and feed your body to sharks !"
"I don't see any sharks around here, the sea's all frozen, how are you going to find them ?" Olaf asks, in bewilderment.
"Oh geez, can't we at least find someone with whom we can have a normal conversation ?" Anna sighes,as she recalls her previous encounters with the residents of this city - The man inside the courthouse brutally kicks her out apparently becasue frostbite on his hands bars him from tossing a coin and he can't answer questions without tossing coins, while the lady in the park seems more concerned with tending to her dying plants instead of having a meaningful conversation. The old man they met on the last street seemd nice enough at first sight, but after exchanging a few words, the puppet in his hands suddenly started to utter profanity and slap his face until he coughs out blood.
"Don't ignore me, I'm talking to you !" Captain Stingaree clutches Anna's neck, but is met with a nasty kick to his groin, as Anna, obviously fed up with the bullshit of this place, decides to stop wasting time with this pirate captain.The kick sends the deranged criminal kneeling down in pain and humiliation."Awww...that hurts...Even Batman hasn't done that to me ! You have brought the wrath of Captain Stingaree on you, lady ! I will blow up your brains - what's the hell is that ? "
The sight that suddenly appears in the sky scares the crap out of the captain, forcing him to drop his pistol and retreat. Anna and Olaf are left terrified as well, for a snowstorm is being generated, all out of a sudden, and the presence of such storm is the indication of her beloved sister being in fatal danger.
As she makes her way close to the castle,however, her mood soon shifts away from worries for Elsa, for there are simply too many dead bodies, frozen and rigid, including children and women.
Mister Freeze's joy of victory is soon interrupted, as a wave of hailstorm bursts into the window, shattering the pillar and knocking the gun out of his hands.
Hastily reaching for his weapon, Mister Freeze stares in horro at Elsa, who descends from the stairs, eyes corsucating with rage. Hardly has Freeze regained his balance when a deluge of icicles is launched towards him. Although the ice shield constructed by his gun is able to block most of them, several still end up punturning his suit. Finally coming to the realization that he is no match for the power of this woman in front of him, Freeze grinds the shield into a mist of ice, thus blurring his presence and paving way for his retreat.
However,the loud step from Marshmallow, who has broken freeze from the shackles of ice and taken down most of the remaining zombies with sheer brute force, disillusions Fries with his dream of a grand escape.Turning back to face the queen of snow, all Mister Freeze can do is helplessly shooting out concentrated beams of ice at the approaching Elsa, which all melted into water and snow after reaching the area around her. For all of his life, Freeze has never encountered anyone or anything so frigid and cold.
"Let the storm rage on,the cold never bothered me, anyway." Says Elsa, as she closes her distance with the criminal,grabbing the barrel of the ice gun and casually putting it out of function by covering it with a crust of ice. Mister Freeze is left stunned and terrified,as the snow storm generated by Elsa shatters the walls of the palace and sends him airborne."It's funny how much I was scared of you when you first entered my home.It's funny how some distance makes everything seem small.And the fears that once controlled me now can't even get to me at all." Elsa laughs,as Mister Freeze ascends into the sky, becoming smaller and smaller as the wind of ice continues to lift him.
"This power...this cold that well exceeds the creations of my decades of researches.....what....what are you ?" In despair, Mister Freeze yells out a question which also happens to be the last sentence in his life.
"My name is Elsa, the former Queen of Arendelle. My power of cold flurries through the air into the ground and my soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around.The feeble energy of cold you and your little device contrive is pathetic,at best." Elsa shouts back in defiance, as she sends Mister Freeze crashing onto the ground, creating a small explosion as the impact pushes the suit to implode,ending this terror of Gotham once and for all.

Epilogue[]
The ruins of Gotham City "Anna, are you sure this is the right thing to do ? Afterall, she is still your sister and the legitimate queen of the kingdom. "
"You have seen the piles of bodies, Olaf. If Elsa were still able to get her powers and emotions under control, we wouldn't resort to such extreme method. However, the chaos and destruction caused by her is becoming more and more unmanageable. Therefore, I have no choice but to do this, for the safety of us and the safety of all mankind. "
"Then there comes another question - how are we going to do that ? We can't put her down by ourselves, she has the power to take on our entire kingdom. "
"That's why we haven't left this frozen city yet. I have already contacted a man that is more than suitable for a task like this. The best we can find out there. Someone that has battled aliens and gods . With the help of that man, I am sure we will be able to settle this, once and for all - "
The imposing body of Marshmallow emerges from the horizon before Anna can finish her words. Olaf, more fearful than ever, cowers behind her as usual, but Anna stares at the beast, firmly and calmly, for she has noticed that the beastly creature isn't coming for them, instead, it is running away from someone else.
An enlarging hole created by the combination of gasoline bombs and plasma flamethrower on the creature's stomach soon confirms her speculation. Bemoaning in pain the creature collapses down, as the snow that composed its husk began melting away.More tiny holes pop out on various parts of its enervating body,as the Terminator's dual M4A1 exhaust yet another magazine.It doesn't take long for the man to extirpate the last bits of the beast's life with a swift decapitation conducted via his energy lance.
"Perfectly done, Mister Wilson. No wonder they all say that you are the best one out there. Based on the efficiency and skills you have just demonstrated, now I have even more faith in you.Although I still feel the need to warn you that my sister's power is nothing to be underestimated. Even Elsa herself isn't fully aware of the limitation of her magic.Therefore,it is probably in your best interest to take a more meticulous approach,or else you might meet the same end as these dead men around us.Once you have succeeded,you will be bounteously awarded, in other words, you will find youself in an entire house made out of gold and diamons derived from the treasures of my kingdom, after I become the one and only rightful heir for the throne...."

Expert's Opinions[]
Despite the fact that Mister Freeze is certainly way more experienced and competent as a warrior, his lack of raw power results in his defeat.
