Chapter 1


I would advise you, my readers, to re-read the prologue and the note at the end. It explains somethings as I re-did the prologue.

Warning: some swearing


White hair and icy blue eyes was the last thing Rapunzel saw before she was rudely awoken by a pillow coming down on her face.

"Hey!" Rapunzel cried groggily as she pushed herself up from her dorm bed. She searched the room for the culprit and came to face a giggling red head.

"Ariel!" Rapunzel moaned as she head dived back into her pillow.

Ariel giggled some more behind the pillow she had hit her roommate with before returning the pillow in its rightful place on her bed.

"Sorry, but I thought you should know that it's almost nine and don't you have a class at twenty past?"

Hearing the news, Rapunzel flew out of her bed in a mad dash for their connected bathroom. Ariel remain in their dorm, laughing until her roommate re-entered.

"You do realise there is a clock in the bathroom," Rapunzel mumbled as she rubbed her eyes of dream sand.

"Oh, I know," Ariel replied happily as she stood up from her bed and grabbed her handbag from her desk.

"Then do you mind telling me why you woke me up saying it was nine, when really it's only eight?" Rapunzel grumbled as she plumped back down onto her bed, annoyed with her roommate.

"Because when was the last time you actually woke up early? I mean come on, you haven't done it since-" Ariel cut herself off, stopping whatever she was going to say. "Anyway, I was hopping we could catch breakfast together. You know...like old times."

Rapunzel lay down with her head in her pillow thinking. Ariel had been her best friend since the final year of high school four years ago. She had been there for Rapunzel since the get go. Even when certain things happened...

With a sigh, Rapunzel lifted herself from the bed and walked back into the bathroom. "Alright, just give me twenty."

Ariel let out a delightful scream as she gathered Rapunzel up in her arms and spun the both of them around.

"Oh thank you! Thank you! We are going to have so much fun! Just you and me!" Ariel giggled as she let Rapunzel go and grabbed her keys. "I'll go get the car," she stopped at the door, "and don't be late," she warned before exiting.

Rapunzel smiled to herself as she shook her head at Ariel and entered the bathroom. Had she acted the same way Ariel does a couple of months ago? She assumed she did because that's how they became instant BFFs. It's funny how all those small things can change because of a boy.

Rapunzel gripped the basin of the sink. No, she was not leading into that territory. Not after all these months...

With a sigh, Rapunzel looked up to her reflection. Even though she didn't want to remember it, her body did. Rapunzel had bags under her eyes and the white bits of her spring green eyes were red from crying. Her blonde hair was a five star hotel for rats, even her sun kissed skin had paled from the absence of sunlight.

With a sigh, Rapunzel turned to the shower taps.

...

A short while later, Rapunzel was dressed and ready for breakfast. She walked out of the bathroom with steam trailing behind her. She admitted she might had run the shower a little too hot, her red skin was evidence of that.

Before leaving the dorm, Rapunzel grabbed her handbag and keys. She was out of her dorm for less then a minute before she ran into trouble. Well, more specifically, him. It happened when she round the first corner.

She had pulled out her phone to text Ariel that she was on her way when she had ran into another body.

"Oh, sorry. I wasn't looking where-"

She stopped her apology when she caught site of brown hair and a goatee. Shit.. she thought as she prayed to whatever god their might be that she would go by undetected. Yeah right, since when did she had that kind of luck?

"Rapunzel...hey, sorry, the fault is mine. I shouldn't be standing in the middle of the hallway anyway," goatee said as he leaned against the wall, every arm muscle bludging in the right spot. It took all of Rapunzel will power to stop from either staring or rolling her eyes.

"N-no, its my fault," she held up her phone and waved it. "Texting whilst walking," she nervously giggled, "you know how dangerous that can be."

Goatee chuckled, "don't I know it. Hey, wasn't that how we met-"

"Whoa, would you look at the time!" Rapunzel acted surprise, "gosh I really should get going. You know how Ariel gets when I'm late. See you around, Flynn."

Rapunzel side-stepped him and made it quickly for the entrance.

"See ya Blondie!" Flynn called after her.

Rapunzel groaned as the nickname went straight through her heart. Asshole.. She had to keep the tears from falling as she exited the dormitory.

...

"Girl, what too you so long?" Ariel asked once Rapunzel was in her car.

"I sorta ran into trouble," Rapunzel sighed as Ariel pulled from the curb.

Ariel sighed inwardly, "are you ok?"

"I'm fine," Rapunzel lied. "Come on, I have to get over it sometime anyway." Ok, so that was the truth.

Behind the wheel Ariel smiled. Rapunzel caught sight of her smile and groaned.

"Oh no."

"What? You haven't even heard what I have to say yet," Ariel defended herself with a giggle.

"Come on, Ari, I know that smile. That smile is never good."

Ariel's mouth dropped with a smile, "it is too."

"Name one time," Rapunzel crossed her arms and waited patiently for one. When it didn't come she laughed.

"Ok, so they might not be good, but it's always fun. Right?"

"That's hard to argue with, but-"

"Good," Ariel interrupted, "so there's a new place in town, popped up over night and-"

"How can a club just suddenly 'pop up over night'?"

"I don't know, they just do. Ok? So, anyway, as I was saying, it's called the Tower and apparently its gunna be good. So, what ya say? Its a Friday night after all, and I haven't seen you loose your shit in a long time."

"It hasn't been that long..."

Ariel just stared at her.

"Ok, so its been awhile..."

"So its settled then?" Ariel asked with a smile.

Rapunzel rolled her eyes. "So it's called the Tower?"

Ariel beamed, "that's my girl."


So, this is the first ever chapter for The Blood Moon Wolves. Not much is revealed in this chapter and not much happens, but it is the introduction of Rapunzel and Ariel. So Ariel is a bubbly character. I made her this way because that's how I interpreted her in her movie. So in a modern human form, I imagine Ariel as a party goer and easily happy, but she can get serious when needed. For Rapunzel, I made her less bubbly. This is only because she's been through a harsh breakup. I tried to keep her realistic, because not everyone is the same person they were before something dramatic happened in their life. I made these characters BFFs because they carry some of the same traits. And lets not forget that Rapunzel was drawn off the basic sketches of Ariel. Don't believe me? Look it up! My pen name isn't DisneyLittleFreak for nothing! lol
