Hello! I missed you a lot, and I mean that with: the homework, my crazy boyfriend, cute friends and listening to music for inspiration I REALLY MISSED WRITING AGAIN... Fine, fine let's continue.
Chapter 10: The White Lynx and Golden Lynx
After Rapunzel saw Jason she went back with Jack that was asleep "Good night Jack" Rapunzel touched Jack's stick gently with the hand that had her birthmark, it started glowing but she didn't notice it, when Rapunzel was about to lie on the ground she saw a white lynx staying at a rock. "Hello little guy, I won't hurt you" Rapunzel whispered gently and showed her palm. The lynx made its way to her (I know that lynxes are wild and antisocial with strange people, but this lynx has a really good experience with people, in other words this lynx is social) and sat a small distance of her. "My name is Rapunzel" She smiled and stretched her arm, and the lynx got closer to her that both touched each other gently.
"You are really good... I hope you could talk to me, I always wanted to understand animals" Rapunzel joked and noticed that her right palm started glowing and it was the one that was touching the white lynx. "What happened?" Rapunzel saw her right palm. "Hi, Rapunzel" The white lynx answered. "Ahh!" Rapunzel screamed and got surprised. "What? It's me Jack" The lynx added. "Wait... Jack? but how?" Rapunzel touched Jack's face looking deeply at his blue eyes. "Ohh, it's you Jack!" Rapunzel hugged him. "Rapunzel, you touched me with your birthmark at night. The thing is that I always knew both had powers and yours on your birthmark appear at night" Jack smiled and sat in front of Rapunzel. "When did you know all that information?" She asked.
"Do you remember my stick with funny shape that shines?" Jack took the stick with his mouth and gave it to Rapunzel. "Yeah, this is a strange stick I already know" Rapunzel saw the stick. "When the avalanche covered us in the time both were under the snow a vision about the birthmarks and its power, and I know how I survived to the avalanche now" Jack saw Rapunzel. "Tell me" Rapunzel got curious. "If I touch or hold the stick my power increases, I mean that now I have something like your hair that keep up me alive or warm inside of me" Jack answered. "Wow, that sounds really interesting! But now we have to answer the big question... When are we going to the mountain?" Rapunzel became confused. "Next morning" Jack explained and began to get sleepy. "Jaja, now I see that you're exhausted hey do you want me to sing for you? The thing is that when someone gets sleepy next to me they ask me to sing" Rapunzel blushed. "Good idea, the thing is that you sing really good. If you want you can sing" Jack lied on the ground. "Jaja, fine I will..." Rapunzel sang:
We were both young when I first saw you...
(I know that this song is from Taylor Swift and Romeo and Juliet didn't exist yet, but admit this a really calming song)
When Rapunzel finished singing she noticed that Jack was lying on her leg smiling like the lynx he was that night. "Jack... what can I do now? Now that I know you feel something for me... well I don't know if I'm still in love with Jason..." Rapunzel began to touch Jack's face softly, carried him, put him on the ground and she lied next to him sleeping really fast.
At the morning...
Jack woke up like a person again but... accidentally he touched Rapunzel with his left hand her golden hair that was still shining. "Ohhh, not again" Jack saw how his hand began to glow. "Good morning Jack" Rapunzel woke up. "Umm, Rapunzel..." Jack put his worried face. "I am a lynx, right?" Rapunzel saw Jack mean. "Yeah, but a golden one. I admit you look really good with that golden color" Jack smiled and touched Rapunzel's head. "I am going to stay like this until night... well this isn't the weirdest thing on my life" Rapunzel joked. "Well, changing the topic... WHERE IS THE MOUNTAIN?! Where can we start?" Jack got doubtful. "Between the places where we began our lives" Rapunzel answered without difficulties. "Wait... how do you know?" Jack got surprised. "Jason's spirit told me yesterday" Rapunzel blushed. "Really?! Wow, I hope to see him again... but did he tell you another thing?" Jack asked. "Ehhh, no" Rapunzel ommited the romantic parts. "Fine, it's a long journey let's go" Jack began to walk with Rapunzel. "Truth... here we go" Both murmured at the same time.
I know that this chapter doesn't have any interesting story, but I had to answer why Jack survived and the lynx idea came to me, so I invented the chapter and that's all. I am sleepy... :)
