Hi there!
I've had this idea in my head for some days now, and I decided to write it down. It's a Jackunzel one-shot (Including some Merricup), to a song called Tears of an angel by RyanDan.
I just thought that this song was perfect for this story, so that's why I added the lyrics in it.
Well, I hope you like it. And please review so I can know what you think about it. :)
Tears of an angel
I watched in terror as the knife hit Rapunzel. The thug who threw the knife was already dead. One of Merida's arrows had hit him in the head. He fell down, his eyes frozen in the same position.
"Jack! She is dying!" My eyes fell on Rapunzel. Her dress was slowly turning red, as the blood streamed from her wound. The knife was sticking out of her back, and I realized that she was mortally wounded. I was beside her in two seconds.
Cover my eyes
Cover my ears
Tell me these words are a lie
"It's not too late. We can still.. Her hair.." I murmured. Rapunzel looked at me, her green eyes filled with love and warmth, even as her face turned pale and still.
"Jack, Pitch cut off her hair. She..We can't.. We can't save her.."Merida was crying. I didn't look away from Rapunzel. "O-of course we can!"
It can't be true
That I'm losing you
The sun cannot fall from the sky
She was crying. Tears streamed down her face. "J-Jack?" She asked. I took her hand. "I'm right here. I... I won't let you go." I looked at her tears. Tears of an angel. My angel
Can you hear heaven cry
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
"What's going on?" Hiccup stood behind Merida, staring at Rapunzel. "She isn't.. No..please say she isn't dead..." He had tears in his eyes too. "She isn't... y-yet..." , Merida said through her tears. Hiccup knelt down beside us, staring at the big red stain.
Stop every clock
Stars are in shock
The river will flow to the sea
I couldn't let her go. I just couldn't. She was everything to me, she was the light of my world.
"D-don't you dare die on me." I whispered to her. "A-am I dying?" She asked. "No! You are not going to die! You-you won't die!"
I wont let you fly
I wont say goodbye
I wont let you slip away from me
A light rain began to fall from an almost clear sky. The sun was going down. It was almost gone behind the hills. Just like my sun. "J-Jack?" I looked at her. I still had her hand in mine, and I could feel how she was getting colder and colder. "I love you."
Can you hear heaven cry
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
"I love you too." I whispered back. My eyes were full of tears, but they wouldn't fall. She smiled a sad smile. I should've told her sooner. "Please don't die Rapunzel. I can't live without you."
I was soaked, but I wouldn't even consider leaving Rapunzel. I would stay here with her forever. "I'm cold, Jack." I felt guilty. Guilty because I couldn't warm her. Guilty because she was dying and I couldn't do anything about it. "I'm here. I am not going to leave you."
So hold on
Be strong
Every day hope will grow
I'm here, don't you fear
The sun had almost vanished. Rapunzel was slowly closing her eyes. I leaned down and kissed her on the lips, before I laid her hand on her chest, still holding it.
"Pro-Promise me something." She whispered, I looked at her again. "Promise me that you will live on. That you will watch out for Merida and Hiccup. Don't cry because the day is over. Smile because a new is about to begin."
Little one don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Her head fell down to her side. She didn't move at all. The sun vanished behind the hills, and only darkness was left behind. My tears fell at last. I laid my head on her chest and cried. I don't know how long I was there, mourning Rapunzel. "Jack, we can't do anything. She is dead. We need to leave if we don't want Pitch to find us." Hiccup laid a hand on my shoulder.
Cover my eyes
Cover my ears
Tell me these words are a lie
I stood up. A final tear fell from my cheek. I looked at Rapunzel for several minutes, before I turned away. Hiccup and Merida followed me when I walked away. I still couldn't believe that she was gone. Forever. I repeated her last words. Don't cry because the day is over, smile because a new is about to begin.
I looked at Hiccup and Merida. Hiccup had Merida's hand in his, and was comforting her. I looked at the sky and discovered that the sun was on the way up.
A new day was about to begin.
