((Ok to start of, this will be a The Big Four crossover. A bit of modern. For brave it takes place after the movie, and for the rest it is AU.
It will also have two pairings: Jack/Merida and Hiccup/Rapunzel. I just love them together.
Here each of The Big Four is a prince or a princess.
Jack: The prince of Mischief
Merida: The princess of Bravery
Rapunzel: The princess of Creativity (or love, you tell me which fits her better)
Hiccup: The prince of Intellegence (or if you think Rapunzel should be of love he can be of creativity)
That is all for now. The rest will be in the story. Oh and I can't write in a Scottish accent so it will be plain. You'll just have to imagine it, sorry. Hope you like it. It was only a thrill of the moment so I don't know if I'll continue. It will depend on how well it does.))

Chapter one: Arranged Marriage

"Merida hunny, all I want for you is the best and I think that Prince Jack is the right guy. He is nice and humorous. I am sure you will like him when you get along" Queen Elinor told her daughter. She had just told her daughter that an arranged marriage had been done for her. It had hit her daughter hard and overwhelmed her.

A couple of years ago her daughter and her had had an argument about marriage which led to a huge disagreement and experience. Both had learned from it, but it seemed to the Queen her daughter did not want to wed, ever. She had to take matters into her own hands and so she did. She found a man suitable for her daughter and talks to his parent for an arranged marriage. They had happily accepted and now all that was left to do was have the dinner were they prince and princess would meet.

"But I don't want an arranged marriage! I want to fall in love on my own mother! That was the whole reason I didn't want to get married two years ago. It is the reason I almost made you turn into a bear permanently! Don't you understand?" Merida almost yelled. She was angry and her accent was stronger than ever.

"C'mon lass. You know your mother means no harm. She is just concerned and wants the best for you" Merida's dad inquired.

"Yes I know... but why can't you let me do it on my own? Do you doubt I will ever fall in love? Or have anyone fall in love with me?" she demanded.

"No! Of course not. You are such a wonderul girl. Any guy would be lucky to have you" her mother offered in defense.

"Then?" she asked.

Her mother sighed giving up. "I just wanted to... it doesn't matter. The dinner is tomorrow and there is no turning back. I am sorry Merida, but this is final. You are marrying that young man" he mother said in a very severe tone before walking away.

Merida stared after her in disbelief. She was shocked. "Dad!"

Fergus only shrugged, "Sorry lass..." and left the room too.

Merida was left alone, in shock. She was actually going to be forced to marry. An arranged marriage? At least before she could pick from three guys. Now she didn't have a choice. Her blood was boiling. She had to get out of the house.

She ran to the stables, saddled her horse Angus and rode of to a close by kingdom. It was her best friend's kingdom.

"Rapunzel! Please let down your hair! I need to talk to you" Merida yelled up at the tower, to her friend.

Not long after hair was let fall from the window, 70 feet of it. Merida took hold of it and was pulled up.

After the other girl caught her breath from pulling she smiled at her friend.

"What brings you here so late?" Rapunzel asked, gathering up her long golden hair.

"An arranged marriage..."

"What?! Of who?"

"My arranged marriage! Can you believe it? My parents are making me marry someone" the red head exclaimed.

"What? Who?"

"That is the worst part. I don't know who! My mom said prince.. Jack or something like that."

"Wow that is big news" Rapunzel said. She had pulled two chairs over for both of them. "And when do you meet him?" she asked curiously, already having leaned forward with her chin on her hands, that were resting on her knees.

"Tomorrow..." Merida sighed, crosiing her arms.

"Wow..."

"Ugh, I want you to be there, please. I don't want to face this alone" Merida pleaded.

"Of course!" her friend happily agreed. She would be more than happy to accompany her friend in such a big event.

"Thanks. So... Does this tower really help you with concentration? I mean it seems to me like it is so secluded from the actual castle."

"Yeah, but I like how quiet it is here. And I get to paint all the time without bothering the guards, though my parents don't mind."

Merida chuckled. Rapunzel had always loved drawing and painting since they were kids. She had always loved that about her friend. She could paint anything she wanted. Merida on the other hand couldn't, but she was good with the sword and bow and arrow, while Rapunzel wasn't. Rapunzel's weapon of choice was a frying pan. It always made them chuckle. They were sort of opposites, but that is what made them such good friends.

"Well I guess I should go back before my mom send of the guard looking for me. I'll wait for you around 4 so we can both get ready for the dinner" Merida said getting up and giving her friend a hug.

"Yeah. Alright I'll be there at 4 o'clock sharp" Rapunzel said returning the hug. She then proceeded to help her friend down with her hair again.

They faced goodbye and then Merida rode off, back to her castle. As she arrived home she went straight to her room. She didn't feel like having dinner. She felt so overwhelemed that it tired her out. She only wanted sleep. She lay down on her bed and was fast asleep, not looking forward to the next day.
