What Ifs and Aus

Kura: Okay, since this one received the LEAST reviews, the Tangled AU is going first. enjoy.

Sakura smiled, "This is an ROTG Tangled AU. Do you wanna know who plays who?" Everyone nodded. Kura peaked at the cast listing and smiled.

"Jack is Rapunzel, Jamie is Flynn/Eugene and a lot older than he is now, North is the King and Jack's dad, Tooth is the Queen and Jack's mother, Bunny is Maximus, Baby Tooth is Pascal, Pitch is Gothel, the Burgess kids are the thugs from the Snugly Duckling, the Yetis are the guards, and two of Pitch's nightmares are the Stabbington Brothers."

Jack and Jamie paled when they caught sight of the engagement rings on Eugene's and Rapunzel's fingers.

Sakura rolled her eyes and began to read the story.

Jamie's POV (Narration)

This is the story of how I died.
Don't worry, this is actually
a very fun story. And the truth is, it isn't even mine.
This is the story of a boy named,
Jack.

The moon comes closer, it gets brighter and brighter until a drop of moonlight can be seen.

And it starts, with the moon.
Now, once upon a time, a single
drop of moonlight fell from the heavens.

The moonlight fell and landed on a frozen lake which then began to glow.

And from this small drop of moon,
appeared a magical wooden staff.
It had the ability to heal the sick,
and injured.
Plus it made the best snow you will ever see.

Pitch can be seen walking towards the staff.

Oh, you see that, ugly, gray, old man,
over there?

"HEY!" Pitch glowered as everyone else snickered.

You might want to remember him.
He's kind of important.
Well, centuries pass and a hop
skip and a bump right away there grew a kingdom.

A painting of North and Tooth appeared. Both looked regal.

The kingdom was ruled by a beloved
King and Queen.

The painting turns into Tooth, who looks about nine months pregnant, on her bed, North at her side the whole time.

And the Queen, well she was about
to have a baby,
and she got sick,
really, sick.
She was running out of time.

Villagers can be seen holding lanterns and looking around for something.

And that's when people usually start
to look for a miracle.
Or in this case, a magic wooden staff.

Pitch walked over to the staff, which he had hidden under some snow.

Ahhh, I told you he'd
be important.
You see instead of sharing the
moons gift,
this man, Pitch Black,
hoarded it's healing power
and used it to keep himself
young for hundreds of years.
He also used the winter powers it help to strike fear into others.
And all he had to do,
was sing a special song.

Pitch waved the staff and began to sing,
Magic of the night,
Let the storm appear,
listen to the voice,
and make all trace of the past disappear...
All right, you get the jist. He sings
she turns young, creepy, right?
He waves the staff, ice comes out with black sand inside.
Again,
creepy.

Pitch notices some Yetis and hides the staff. But as he grabs his lantern, he kicks some snow off of the staff. One of the Yeti's spots it and yells in Yetish. It can be roughly translated as, "We've found it!"

Tooth drinks something made from the ice of the staff.

A few moments later, she is looking at a baby boy with bright blue eyes and snow-white hair. The baby lets out a laugh and tries, keyword TRIES, to eat his foot causing Tooth to laugh and pick him up.

The magic of the wooden staff saved the queen.
A healthy baby boy,
a prince was born.
With beautiful snow-white hair.
I'll give you a hint.

North places a silver crown on the baby's head. He giggles and it tilts over.

That's Jack.

Tooth and North take Jack outside, where a single silver lantern sat. Together, they lifted the lantern into the air.

To celebrate his birth, the King and
Queen launched a flying lantern into the sky.
For that one moment,
everything was perfect.
And then that moment ended.

Pitch entered the room Jack was in and began to sing. As he did, the staff which was in Jack's hands, began to frost over and the same frost markings appeared on the baby's skin.

Magic of the night,
Let the storm appear,
listen to the voi-

As Pitch sung, he chipped some of the wood off the staff. The frost disappeared and a strand of Jack's hair turned brown.

"HUH!"

Then and there, Pitch made his decision. He grabbed both the staff and Jack, took one look at the horrified faces of North, Tooth and the Yetis and disappeared.

Pitch broke into the castle and stole
the child, just like that...gone.
The Kingdom searched and searched,
but they could not find the Prince.

The searching Kingdom turns into a forest that leads to a cove with a tower. A bright blue light can be seen.

But deep within the forest
In a hidden tower.
Pitch raised the child
as his own.
...listen to the voice,
and make all traces of the past disappear.

Pitch sighed in content, feeling the power of the staff flow inside him as he stroked Jack's head.

Pitch had found his new magic staff.
But this time he was determined
to keep it hidden.

As soon as he finished singing, Jack spoke up, "Why can't I go outside?"

Pitch sighed and responded, "The outside world is a dangerous place. Filled with horrible, selfish people. You must stay here, where you're safe. Do you understand, snowflake?"

Jack nodded, "Yes, Daddy."

Later, Jack can be seen sneaking past Pitch's room, towards a window, and the sight of lanterns appearing in the sky mixing with softly falling snow. He tilted his head in awe at the sight.

But the walls of that tower,
could not hide everything.
Each year on his birthday, the King
and Queen released thousands of lanterns
into the sky.
In hope that one day, their lost
Prince, would return.

Sakura smiled, "That was a nice beginning, now onto the rest of the story!"
