Weird Frozen-inspired Idea

This idea has been bugging me for a long time and it's really annoying so I'm going to mention it. I don't know why; I usually don't come up with these things, but I couldn't help it. It's a completely alternate plot that just keeps the titles (and music) of the songs with lyrics.

The story is about a princess (we'll call her Anna) and her mother (we'll call her Elsa and give her ice powers, even though it feels wrong that they aren't sisters). In the beginning, when the princess is young, her parents play with her a lot and they have a close relationship. But after an attack by a minority group, the mostly benevolent queen instates even-harsher-than-normal policies against all minorities in her kingdom. These cause discontent, and as the princess gets older, her parents have less time for her because they're dealing with these people.

(Do You Want to Build a Snowman?)

Then, making everything worse, the queen's husband (not sure what his title is) is kidnapped by bandits (who happen to mostly be ethnic minorities) and dies in an escape attempt. The queen becomes colder and begins to really crack down on those populations, neglecting her daughter; her powers have also attained a tendency to do destructive things while she struggles to create just snow.

(The super-sad part of Do You Want to Build a Snowman?)

In addition, her daughter was closer to her father and has a rocky relationship with her mother at the best of times. She tries to be the daughter she knows her mother wants, but she never quite succeeds and the pressure is hard.

The tradition in this kingdom is to, on the oldest child's 18th birthday (Anna's is in winter), choose the next queen from a pool of people chosen for the skill, a pool that automatically includes said child. Anna is very excited, hoping her mother will notice her and be proud of her.

(For the First Time In Forever)

But one of the people also under consideration is talented and gets along immediately with the queen. Anna spots the queen with the boy (Hans) and believes that she has been replaced in her mother's heart.

(Love is an Open Door - though I was thinking more of the "mental synchronization" part)

Anna runs away, telling herself her duties as a princess are over because there is another person who will take the kingdom and probably would do a better job than her. She takes enough money to support herself, as well as some jewels, and plans to find work as a tutor or historian. She dies her hair, putting on makeup and changing clothes to disguise herself. When she is not recognized in the marketplace, she realizes that she no longer has to seek her mother's approval and is more daring than she ever has been before.

(Let It Go)

In the meantime, the queen is extremely worried when she realizes Anna is gone. Under Hans's reassurances that they'll be alright for a few days, she dashes off in search of her daughter (on awesome ice-stuff, of course).

In Anna's spree of trying new things, she ends up more than a little high and drunk and gives at least half of her money and a ring to a cute little boy (possibly named Olaf - this one doesn't fit very well).

(In Summer)

Spurred on by her semi-drunkenness, Anna meets a person named Kristoff (definitely Kristoff) and flirts with him. He ends up taking her to his family/village (they're all related anyways), who soon recognize her as the princess. She, too, recognizes them as part of the minority population her mother has been persecuting and freaks out. But they tell her that they don't care about who she's related to and decide to take her in despite that, proclaiming that every friend of Kristoff is their friend. She, drunk, thinks it's great that they're adopting her.

(Fixer-Upper)

The queen finds the ring and traces it to Olaf, who directs the queen to the village and offers to give her the money back; in thanks, she allows him to keep it and doesn't punish him. When the queen arrives at the village, she sees her daughter through the walls and announces her presence, telling them that if they do not deliver Anna, she will freeze the village and turn everyone into ice. (This would not kill Anna because the queen could thaw her afterwards.)

They deliver Anna, knowing that they are helpless, but Anna insists that the queen promise she won't harm anyone. Anna and her mother get in a shouting match, each airing their grievances, but while they are engrossed in argument, one of the villagers throws a knife at the queen.

Anna is distraught, but the villagers tell her that unless she abandons her mother, she is their enemy. Alone and without protection, Anna pretends to agree but at night steals a couple of knives and finds her mother. Kristoff and another of the more sympathetic villagers also come to see what they can do. Anna holds them at bay until they convince her that they want to help. Anna searches for the vial of tears Rapunzel gave them, which the queen normally carries with her, in vain. (I think it's implied that the flower is gone, but I refuse to accept that. Rapunzel, and her children, and so on have magic flower powers.) Kristoff agrees to take Anna and the queen on his sled to the castle.

When they get there, however, Hans proves oddly obstructive and reveals that the vast majority of the soldiers have been lured away. Anna suddenly realizes from things he said and the villagers said that he's been in communication with them, and that he convinced the queen to leave in hopes that something would happen. Kristoff swears he didn't know; Anna knows she doesn't have time to worry about that and tells Kristoff to distract Hans while Anna runs carrying her mother to the infirmary, pursued by the people Hans snuck in with her that are now trying to stop her. She is met by a servant who smuggled her sword over, hearing about the fight. Anna thanks her and tells her to get somewhere safe.

Anna wants to wait to hear if her mother can be saved, but remembers Kristoff. The door is blocked, but Anna climbs out though the window and then, holding her sword in her mouth, climbs across the windows (her childhood antics coming in handy now) and into a hallway. She runs to where she can hear a commotion. The door, she discovers, was blocked because of Kristoff. The few soldiers remaining are still fighting against Hans's fighters, leaving Kristoff alone against Hans and losing. Anna charges in to rescue him, incapacitating Hans. With her help, they soon defeat the rest of Hans's fighters.

They are sending someone to get rope for the non-killed fighters, but the queen rounded the corner just in time to see the last one fall and she now binds them using her awesome magical icy powers. Anna stands in front of Kristoff protectively. To everyone's surprise, the queen thanks Kristoff. Anna apologizes for running off and yelling at her mother, and fluffiness ensues.

In the last scene, the queen publically announces that she will change her policies towards ethnic minorities and thanks Kristoff for his part in saving her life. She creates a new office for relations between ethnic groups and appoints Kristoff (temporarily) to a high position in it. She also explains what Hans did and that there will be another ceremony to choose her successor since this one was interrupted.

And while there are lots of problems ahead for all of them, they all lived (for the most part), happily ever after.
