Sorry for the mix up. In the first chapter it says Merida and Florian are dating as well as Merida and Eric. In reality she is in a relationship with Eric not Florian. Also if the time frame is confusing, in this story everyone has been reduced to the same age. Events that happened such as Elsa and Ana's parents deaths have happened earlier than they did in the movie. The story takes places after everyone's movies.

Chapter 2-

"You skank!" Hercules, Ariel's boyfriend was hollering across the cafeteria, slowly making his way to Ariel's table. He did not make very far before Eric, one of the football players, punched him in the jaw. He went down but Eric was not finished with him, he grabbed him by his shirt and dragged him to Ariel.

"Listen buddy. Calling a female a skank in front of her whole entire class is damn right well wrong. Hell even if you do it in secret its wrong. So I want you to say sorry." When Hercules just defiantly stared at her, Eric punched him again.

"H, we are done. For the last time. I tried to do this in private so as not to humiliate you but this time everyone should know." Ariel grabbed her drink and dumped it over his head. "We are done. You cheated on me with Jessie. I'm sorry I refuse to sleep with someone who sleeps with her while dating me. If you ever call me a skank again, you will lose your tongue." By the end of her speech she had dumped five different types of drinks on him.

"Baby, I'm sorry. I know you don't mean any of this. I shouldn't have called you a skank but you slept with my best friend."

"For crying out loud Herc, I did not sleep with Ariel!" Buzz yelled out. He stormed over to them. "Look, the red head you saw me with in that car was …" He trailed off and leaned down to Brian's ear and whispered the name.

"Well then. Ariel I uh apologize for calling you a skank. I was wrong." Hercules got up and walked away with his arm slung around Buzz's neck. They chuckled as they walked away.

Everyone looked on confused as to what the hell happened. "Umm Ariel are you ok?"

"Um yeah. Thanks Eric. That was really nice of you. And I'm sorry about your shoes. How about I buy you some new ones?"

"Um no it's cool. But I would like to buy you dinner. If that's ok?"

"Yeah. Why not?" Ariel answered really calmly but on the inside her heart was pounding two hundred miles an hour. She had a crush on Eric for the last four years. The fact that he stood up for her, meant a lot to her.

Ariel turned around to see her table staring at her in various ways. Mulan and Pocahontas were staring at her in horror. Before she could ask them what was wrong, Elsa and Anna started laughing.

"Damn Ariel. Who knew you had it in you? Asking a guy out for shoes and ending up going out for dinner. I need your skills." Rapunzel said. She thought Ariel was awesome and wished that Hercules and she had broken up way earlier than this, though she wished he hadn't yelled that she was a skank in front of such a large body of the school.

"You know you guys would make a perfect couple, but I thought he was dating Merida?" The entire table looked over at Merida, who was sitting at table reading a book completely oblivious to the fact that a whole table was staring at her.

"It's just dinner guys. My main question is how the hell did Eric overpower Hercules? I mean we all know what Hercules is. He comes from like powerful stock. Like really powerful. His father is Zeus. I mean that kid has powers that even Elsa and Jack don't have." Anna stated. They all knew that physically Hercules was much stronger than the sailor. The fact that Eric took him down meant that Hercules had a reason for letting himself get hit, whatever it was they would not know.

The bell rang after that and they all went to their different questions, only Elsa stayed at that table. Her schedule had a break in it during this period so she didn't have anywhere to go. After about five minutes she noticed that she wasn't alone in the cafeteria. Meg and Merida were also in there, sitting at the table together both ignoring one another. Elsa got up to join them and they all sat there at the table wondering what the hell they were doing at the table together.

"So about today's lunch entertainment? Am I the only one who wonders about how Hercules went down when Eric punched him?" Merida asked in her Scottish burr. It was so soft that it made the other girls smile.

"His dad took his powers away until he matures a little more. So right now he is just like a normal football player. He also wants to see if Herc can get into college without his powers." Meg answered while reading her book. Both Merida and Elsa looked at her but before they could ask the principal walked in toward them.

"Merida. We have news." Merida barely looked toward her. She kept her gaze out the window and nodded. "Your parents were in a car accident. They didn't make it." They all stared at her, wondering when she was going to react to the news.

Inside, Merida was screaming. Outside, her eyes were watering. The tears started rolling down her cheeks without her noticing. Meg nodded at Elsa and she left to the classrooms. She knocked on Mr. Rubio's room and walked in.

"Umm, the principal sent me to get Eric. She wanted to talk him." Mr. Rubio nodded his head and Eric followed Elsa out of the room. "Eric, Merida's parents are dead. They were in a car accident. She isn't reacting. She has tears but nothing else." Eric nodded and ran off to the cafeteria. He walked over to her and knelt in front of her.

"Mer? Merida? Sweetheart?" Eric gently called her name. Elsa and Meg stood back wondering what they could do to help but before they could ask Eric shook his head and waved them back. Merida looked down at their hands confused about how they got connected.

"Eric?" She sniffed. "They are gone. Just like… like," she couldn't finish for the tears that were streaming down her face and the object blocking her throat.

"I know sweetheart, I know." He pulled her into his arms and rocked her. "Can I take her?" He asked the principal, Mrs. Ceaser, and left before she could nod.

"I want this kept quiet, we don't need the entire school knowing what's happening." She walked away before they could nod or saying anything.

They both stared at each other before following Eric and catching up to him before he could leave. They hopped in the back seat of his car and did not budge even when he looked at them.

Upon arrival at Eric's place they hopped out, rushed to the door and waited for Eric to lead Merida to the door. Once they were inside they both went in separate directions though neither of them knew exactly where they were going until they got to the kitchen. One started on making tea while the other one started on making a compress. They left the kitchen and walked toward the sound of really hard sobbing, coming up on Eric holding Merida in his arms.
