LittleIcicle- I was just typing this up when I got your review. So is this soon enough?
FloraBlue- I do not know about Hiccup and Merida helping, too late for the runaway Merida thing but they could help somehow. In addition, it would help with a strengthening Mericcup maybe.
PrancerDancer- I'm safe from your threat! For now.
WolfieRed23- You are welcome! I knew that you ordered that specifically and I put in one of your ideas in this chapter filler! In addition, you got your couple question answered… sort of.
FloraIrmaTylee-More adorable than Toothless the dragon or Toothless the puppy? Because it is tough to beat Toothless in puppy form in a cuteness contest, let me tell yah!
Okay enough conversations, time to chapter it up!
Chapter 10Rapunzel
After Jack walks through his door, I mentally panic. What the hell do I tell Mother? I grip my knee length hair in frustration. Not to mention, how are we going to get to Corona, hitchhike? (*Winks at WolfieRed23*). Mother calls out from below me and I try to make out what she is saying, but her words are muffled.
I walk to the stairs, "Yes Mother?" I look down into the living room where Mother sits, fingers pinching her brow.
She looks up at me, her eyes troubled, "Rapunzel, I would like to apologize." I stair in shock at her, since when has she ever apologized to me? "I'm just so tired of all the fighting and I realized that the fighting is coming from both sides." She stands with her arms out and pulls me into an embrace. Then she has to ruin the moment, "In this case I'm the bad guy too."
Mother pulls back and pushes my bangs from my face and tucking them behind my ear. I pull her back into a hug, "Thank you Mother. I love you," Mother chuckles and smoothes the back of my hair.
Then guilt shoots through me, I am supposed to be leaving in a few days to find my real parents and instead I'm hugging a criminal!
"Dinner will be ready in a few minutes, so go and get washed up! I'm making hazelnut so-up!" Mother smiles and pushes me to the stairs and the guilt escalates. I make my way up the stairs and into the bathroom Mother and I share. I wash my hands and splash water onto my face. I reach up for a small hand towel and my eyes catch my reflection.
The girl in the looking glass has long blonde hair and green eyes and small freckles dotting her nose. A flash of a person's face runs through my head, and I realize that the face is Caroline, my real mother. Her green eyes replicate mine and her skin seems to glow. I step back from the glass but crash right into mother's makeup cabinet, resulting gin my head hitting the ground and a huge crash.
Pain explodes in my head and I vaguely hear Mother calling out my name. I stumble to my feet and make my way to the banister above the stairs. Cold heart, cold heart, I think though my brain like a litany.
"Rapunzel? Are you alright?" Mother asks.
I make my way through the door to the staircase, "You're not my mother," I mutter. I stare at the ground.
I can practically hear Mother roll her eyes, "Please speak up Rapunzel, you know how I hate the mumbling!"
"You are not my mother, are you?" I look up, the litany still pounding in my brain. Her face shows that I am right. "Did I mumble, Mother? Or should I even call you that?" My voice decrescendos to a whisper and mother waves the air like there is a fly.
She scoffs, ascending the stairs to where I stand, "Rapunzel, do you even hear yourself? Why would you ask such a ridiculous question?" She tries to hug me into manipulation.
I push her away, "It was you! It was all you!"
"Everything I did was to protect you," Her face sneers.
Something inside of me snaps and I push her away to go descend the stairs, ignoring her shout of my name.
"I've spent my entire life away from my parents who would care for me with every pure intention! Instead, you stole me-"
"Rapunzel!"
"-from that hospital, away from my family!" I stop at the bottom of the stairs and stare defiantly at Mother.
"Where will you go?" Her voice goes serious and hushed. "He won't be there for you; he's a heart breaker, an addict, a delinquent, and a sexist pig!" She chuckles softly, "Not to mention your parents, they only got their money through drugs and illegal alcohols."
Something tells me not to believe her, but old habits are hard to break and I stare at the floor, tears forming, "Now, now, it's alright all of this is as it should be." She reaches up to pat my head. In a split second, I have her wrist crushed in my hand.
"No!" I stare at her struggling figure. "You were wrong about my family, you were wrong about my boyfriend," May as well say it, I think to myself. "And you were wrong about me." My voice rises to a shout. "And I will never let you manipulate me again!" I let go of my handhold and push her away. I glare at her and start towards the door.
"You want me to be the bad guy?" I hear faintly behind me, and a warning bell goes off but I ignore it. "Fine, now I'm the bad guy."
Holy shit, Gothel sounds f**king serious
Ha-ha yeah, ya'll liked that didn't you? Well the real thing will be here in the next couple of days because this is more like a chapter filler that I typed up. In addition, I wanted to thank everybody who has read, reviewed, followed, favorited, and more! Without you people helping me, I would not have made it this far in the fan fiction world! I love you all! So bye then!
