In a beautiful castle owned by the King and Queen of Corona sat two children. One was a girl with fiery, red hair and bright, blue eyes. The other one was a brown-haired boy with forest green eyes. Their names was Merida and Hiccup, both eight years old, both visiting the country with their parents. And the reason their parents was there was to talk about their county's. You see, Merida's parents were the King and Queen of Scotland and Hiccup's father the Chief of the Viking village Berk. The children had been shoved together while the adults were talking and they didn't like it very much. Hiccup didn't feel like playing with the girl that reminded him all too much of the other kids at home. The kids that always bullied him. He would much rather be alone and draw or something. Merida on the other hand was just plain bored. She didn't like being stuck in the castle at home so why would she like it here? She had a plan though.

"I think we should go to the forest" she said all of sudden. "This is way too boring."

Hiccup looked at the girl beside him. She was wearing a blue dress with a brown belt around the waist. In her hand she was carrying a brown bag. The girl was glancing down at it every now and then and seemed rather eager to get out of the castle and open it.

"Okay" Hiccup said, a little confused that Merida invited him to come with him. No one had ever done that before. "Let's just go tell our parents" he added and walked in the right direction to get to their parents.

"NO!" Merida yelled hand held up a hand in front of her. Hiccup turned back to her and eyed her suspiciously. "I mean, I've already told my parents that we would probably go out" she said, rather slow. The boy couldn't destroy her plan.

"And they didn't think that we should have and adult with us or something?" Hiccup asked, surprised. He always got to go out on his own, but his father was also a Viking. This girl was a princess with parents that seemed very protective of her. He would have thought that she would need a guard or something to go out. Besides, none of them knew their way around in this forest.

"Nae, thay said it's fine" she answered him with a big smile. He didn't know whether or not to believe the girl but decided to just go with it. It would be kind of annoying having an adult tell them what to do and what to not. He followed the girl and together they sneaked out of the castle. Just a few minutes later they had made through the town and across the bridge. They were in the forest.

"COME ON!" Merida yelled and started to run. Hiccup clumsily ran after her, not wanting to be left behind. Soon they had gone deep into the forest, with no idea how to get back.

Not that far away was a blonde girl in the same age was standing in the middle of a room in a high tower. She had woken up to find her mother gone. This happened every now and then and she knew that her mother was just out to find food or something else they needed. But this didn't calm the girl. She was afraid when she was alone and wanted to come with her mother because with her mother she as always safe.

That's why she now searched the room for a way out. She had to find it. Her mother had told her not to go out because it was dangerous outside but she felt more afraid being locked inside the tower. The girl took a few steps forward, and that was enough. She sat down, took away the carpet and smiled as she saw a trapdoor. As fast as she could she opened it and ran down the long stairs. Soon she was out of the tower. For the first time in her life she could feel the grass under her feet and wind through her hair. She started running. Fast. She was going after her mother. The only problem was, she didn't know where her mother had gone. Soon the little girl, Rapunzel, was lost.

"This way" Merida said and walked through some bushes with Hiccup after her. He felt like they had walked for hours and just wanted to get back. But they were lost. He knew that Merida lied when she said she knew exactly where they were.

"We are lost, Merida" he said and tried to grab her arm but she was too fast.

"No, we're not" she answered and stomped through some more bushes. But then she stopped. She now was in a clearing with a beautiful pond, but that wasn't what stopped her. It was the girl with the long, blonde hair that sat in front of the pond, crying. She wanted to help the girl, but didn't know how. She wasn't good at this. To her surprise Hiccup ran up to the girl and placed a hand on her shoulder. Surprised the girl looked up at him with big, green eyes.

"What's wrong?" he asked and sat down beside her. For a moment she just stared at him before she started to cry again. Carefully, Merida sat down on her other side and put an arm around her. A few words came out of the girls mouth that made Merida and Hiccup understand that this girl was also lost, and scared. This made Merida break. She had managed to lie to herself until now. She realized that they were deep in the forest and had no idea how to get back. She would never see her family again. Tears streamed down the redheads face. This was too much for Hiccup and he too started crying.

Jackson Overland was the name of the thirteen year old boy who right now was walking to his favorite spot in the forest. He was done with the chores for the day and looked forward to just sit by his pond and relax. But when he reached the pond he found something strange. Three small children who all sat and cried. Without thinking he ran to them and crouched in front of them.

"Hey, hey" he said and put one hand on the only boys shoulder and the other on the girl with the red curls shoulder. All of the three kids looked up at him. They seemed to be around the age of eight. "What has happened?" he asked softly and smiled at them so that they would understand that he wasn't dangerous. For a few moments it was quiet, but then they boy started to talk.

"Me and Merida" she gestured to the red-haired girl. "Was just going out to the forest but got lost" he explained. " And now we've walked for hours and our parents are probably looking for us but will never find us because Merida walked to fast in the wrong direction" he shot a death glare at Merida who just stuck her tongue out at him.

"And your name?" Jack asked while chuckling at the two children's behavior.

"Hiccup. I'm a Viking" the boy proudly said and Jack nodded at him before turning to the girl in the middle. The one of the three children who seemed most afraid.

"And you?" he asked gently.

"My name is Rapunzel" she said shyly. "I left my home to follow my mother but I don't know where she went so I got lost and I'm really not supposed to go out. I need to get back home!" she exclaimed.

"Don't worry, I will help you" Jack said and stood up. "I'm Jack" he introduced himself. "I say we do like this. We stay here for just a little while and calm down. We can play a game if you want? Have a little fun? And the I help you home. Okay?" the three children nodded. For the first time he really looked at them. The boy, Hiccup, said he was a Viking and Jack believed him. He looked like a Viking with those clothes. Though it was strange that a Viking boy was here. The Vikings lived further up on islands in the north. Where the dragons lived. Merida he noticed looked very fiery, not just because of the red hair but also because of the stern look she had in her eyes. She looked like she was ready for anything. And then Rapunzel, who had really long hair. It was longer than her. All of sudden she started to cry again. Jack crouched in front of her again and put his hands on her shoulders.

"Don't worry Rapunzel, I will get you home" he promised.

And he did. He did get them all home and when they walked together they all became very attached to each other. Jack said that they were free to visit him whenever they wanted, and they did. As soon as they could they went to the pond. Sometimes they would go with Jack to his village and meet his parents and sister but mostly they would stay by the lake and have fun together. And they would always be there the date when they first met. This lasted for four years but the fifth year, on the date of their anniversary, Jack wouldn't show up. The three thirteen year olds then went to his village where they found his sister. They asked her where he was, and with tears in her eyes she gave them the terrible news of his death.

After this they wouldn't see each other again.
