Sorry about the long wait, I had writers block. Anywayzz... I'm pretty pround of this chapter, it's probably not the best, but I think it's good. ENJOY! Elinora's POV:
Finally! Somebody knew my family's secret! I've always wanted to talk to somebody about my hair, but nobody could completely understand because nobody was ever put in the same situation as me, and then I met Rapunzel, she was so cool, and she knew exactly what I was feeling! Not only that, she had a lot of, well, sanity! If I was stuck in my house my whole life, I swear I would have gone crazy!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. I ran down the stairs to answer it.
"Hey Punzel What's up?" I asked when I saw her standing at the door
"Hi Ellie, Eugene's out for the day. My mother said it was royal duties, or something... mind if I stay?" She asked
"Of course," I answered moving to the side to let her in, "There was something I wanted to ask you..." I said wondering if it was to touchy of a topic
"Sure, what is it?" She asked taking her seat
"Well," at this point I was fiddling with my fingers and looking down, "what was it like...?"
"Huh?" Punzel asked genuinely confused, "What are you talking about?"
"You know... living in a tower for 18 years?"
I closed my eyes, expecting her to try to dismiss it, but she didn't.
"Hm," She said with a sad smile, "It honestly, wasn't so horrible until the day I finally got out of there..."
"What do you mean?" I asked
"I mean, I had never seen anything outside the tower... so there was nothing for me to miss." She said looking at me, "If someone would put me back now, after I've seen so much, I wouldn't take it nearly as well."
"Oh..." I said thinking about what she said, and trying to see if I would react the same way if it was me
"You want to see it?" She said after a few seconds of silence
"Really!" I asked surprised that she'd offer to let me see it even if it meant she have to see it too.
"Why not!" She respond, "It'll be fun to let somebody else besides me or Eugene see my first home!"
"Wow, thanks, I'd love to see it!"
She jumped off her seat and headed for the door, "Let's go."
Nobody's POV:
"Oh my gosh!" Elinora said in awe staring at Rapunzel's old tower, "I can't believe you used to live here!"
Rapunzel, falling behind, finally caught up with Elinora.
"You know?" Rapunzel said out of breath, trying to get back her energy, "Eugene says... I'm like this... huge ball of... energy that... no one can... compare to... I think... I met... my match!"
"Sorry," Elinora said, "I guess I was more excited than I thought... But this place is just so big!"
Rapunzel regained her breath and stood up straight to walk up to Elinora, "Lots of good memories here."
"How did your 'mother' get up there?"
Rapunzel laughed and looked up at the tower, "There's actually a secret door hidden somewhere in the back, but Gothel never revealed that to me until the day I went back to the castle. When I still hadn't-"
Rapunzel turned to her side to see that Elinora wasn't there, but her hair was, and it was sparkling. She followed the trail of hair with her eyes to find her friend standing over a patch of flowers, singing the healing incantation. Rapunzel walk over to Elinora to see what she was trying to do.
"What once was mine." Elinora sang the last verse of her special song, then she looked at Rapunzel, "That Gothel lady really didn't care about anything outside that tower, did she?"
"I don't think so," Rapunzel said, "why, did you heal the flowers?"
"Yeah, they were so dry and dead."
The princess laughed at Elinora's love for what some would insignificant.
"Come on," Rapunzel said, "It's getting late, and Eugene asked me to meet him at the Snuggly Ducking in a few minutes."
Elinora jumped up and followed Rapunzel to the ivy covered cave, "Okay!" She responded.
They walked out of the area with Elinora's hair leaving all the places it had been. The tower was already out of thier sight, when a familiar black cloak, which was not too far from the patch of flowers was revealed under Elinora's long black hair. Slowly, the black cloak rose, revealing a woman, who appeared to be somewhere in her forties, with a face that said revenge... Gothel.
Gothel put up her hand and examined it with an evil smile, "Well this is going to be interesting..." she said making her way forward.
GOTHEL'S BACK =O ! How will this play out, hmmm... stay tune for the next one! Review if you can (which I know you can!) ;]]
PS: Don't hate me, because the next chapter is Eugene's proposal, I don't mention Gothel. I know it seems like I'm telling 2 stories at once, but I promise it come together in the chapter after the next! Okay? Okayy! REVIEW, BECAUSE YOU CAN!
