Disclaimer: Fairy Tail belongs to Hiro Mashima, and Tangled belongs to Disney (or whoever owns it). I basically don't own anything but what I changed (if even that) and my imagination.

Words do not describe how busy I've been lately. I'm a fucking senior in high school and for some reason busy. I don't get it.

Here's a really short fic. THIS IS NOT A CROSSOVER BETWEEN FAIRY TAIL AND TANGLED. I only loosely based this story on Tangled.

Enjoy!

Natsu woke up with a jolt. He looked around the unrecognizable room, mentally slapping himself for having a shitty memory. When his gaze turned downward at himself, anxiety and confusion filled his mind.

He was panicking because he was bound to a chair in an unknown, dark place. Who wouldn't be alarmed in a situation like that?

His puzzled nature came from the fact that hair was keeping him from escaping the room. At least he thought it was hair. It was long and brown and soft on his wrists and ankles.

Following the trail of hair only muddled Natsu's brain more. It was long. It laid along the floor and traveled up to the beams of the large room before disappearing into the shadows. From those shadows, a woman spoke, "Stop struggling, you're not going to get out of it." She leapt down onto the floor and walked forward. " I know why you're here, and I'm not scared."

Natsu squinted his eyes, attempting but unable to see the figure lurking in the dark. "I'm sorry, what?"

When the girl stepped into the light, he just stared at her in awe; she was beautiful. The brunette had a gentle face, was wearing a calf-length blue dress with gold lining, and held a frying pan between her delicate hands.

His staring was interrupted by her, "Who are you? How did you find me?" She swung the frying pan around, holding it inches from his face.

Natsu cleared his throat, "Look, I don't know who the hell you are or how I found you, but allow me introduce myself." He smiled. "Hi. I'm Natsu Dragneel. How are ya?"

The brunette looked at him with wide eyes before regaining her composure. She wouldn't let him have the upper hand and make her afraid. "Who besides yourself knows my location, Natsu Dragneel?" she said with a sneer on her face.

"Lady-"

"Lucy," she interrupted him again.

"Luigi-" Before he could finish, she hit him upside the head with the pan.

"My name's Lucy!" She emphasized angrily.

Natsu was forced to ignore the pain; with his hands bound, he couldn't rub his head. "Look Lucy, I was running from some people. I found your tower and climbed it, thinking it was a good place to hide."

"What do you want with my hair?"

Now he was even more confused. "Why the hell would I want your hair? I just wanted a place to get away from the people chasing me."

Lucy was hesitant, wondering if she should tell him why. Natsu was a stranger, but he wasn't scary with sharp teeth, like her mother said outsiders had. He was nice and introduced himself to her. She didn't think he was lying when he said he didn't want her hair.

Fuck it, she thought. "It's magical," she said, her anxiety increasing as she spoke.

Natsu went into a coughing fit. When he calmed himself down, he asked, "I'm sorry, what?"

"It's magical. My hair heals injuries and makes people younger. Mother won't let me leave my tower because she says people will want to cut and sell it, but it turns blonde and loses its power. All I want to do is see the floating lights, but I'm scared people will take my hair."

Natsu thought for a second about the situation before a genius idea came to his mind. "Then why don't you cut it?" he exclaimed, "If you cut it, nobody can have it's magical power, and you don't have to stay in this tower forever. I can take you to see the floating lights and show you everything the outside world has to offer, because let me tell you, it's great!"

Lucy was shocked that this pink-haired man would suggest such a crazy idea. However, the more she thought about it, the more it seemed like a good suggestion. Sure, her hair was a gift that let her perform miracles, but Natsu was right. If she cut it, then it would no longer be a burden. She wouldn't be afraid of people taking it because it wouldn't be magical anymore. She could see the floating lights and explore the world.

"You know what? Fuck everything. Let's do it. Will you cut it for me?"

"Sure!" Natsu smiled. "If you untie me, I'll cut the excess off for ya. We can go to a barber in town to get it nicer."

Lucy untied him and grabbed a pair of scissors before handing them to him. He walked around her and snipped her hair off at around her ribcage. She immediately sighed in relief. "It's much lighter than it was before, which is nice. Can we go now?"

Natsu grinned. "Let's go!"

This might be terrible, but I wrote it in like an hour. I could have made it better, but I really just wanted to write and post something.

Thank you so much for reading, I hope you liked it!
