Matsuda, at one point, ended up finding herself on a dead end, she quickly hid in a cave that was covered by vineyards. What the camouflage of the horse that was lurking looking for her. The animal then looked to the left and to the right, in a state of alert, because it knew that the girl could be somewhere.

The redhead then took a deep breath, relieved and, soon looked at the exit of the cave, she, then left the place and looked back, to make sure that the horse was not looking for her anymore, then, she saw ahead a large tower that was deep in the forest, it seemed like a good place to hide, at least, she thought.

She moved closer and realized that the tower was higher than she imagined it to be:

— ~How can I go up there?~ — She thought in distress as she looked up noting how high the tower was.

Matsuda was good at climbing, but there was almost no gap to climb, but she then resented herself, and walked away:

— Don't you want to be captured by the horse? would you like ? — she asked to herself

— You can do it! — the redhead ran and tried to climb, but her hands slipped and she ended up falling to the floor

— Shit... — She complained

She realized that it was impossible to climb that tower, so she took a transistor out of her satchel and threw it on the floor to form a portal, but it didn't work:

— ~ Come on, come on... I don't want to stay here, fuck it everything ! let them do the mission without me! ~ — She thought again

She threwed again, none of them glowed, they looked opaque, did they take a fall and broke? At that moment, there was no other choice, it was as if she were stuck in that world. So she tried to find a place to hide, until among the bushes, she found some stray arrows; and soon the girl looked at the tower, and a smile from ear to ear appears on the young woman's face.

She then used the arrows she had found before, climbing the great 25-meter high tower, she didn't hesitate to look down, she just worried about reaching her destination to hide.

Matsuda arrived at the window tired and quickly closed it by dropping the arrows on the floor, she stopped for a while to rest while her breathing was labored. The redhead looked around and realized that it was quite spacious around, more than she thought. She took her purse and opened it, it contained the precious crown in addition to other not very important things.

— * laughs * I think we're alone now-

However, she was slapped on the head, which made her pass out, but who would it be for? oh yes of course, by Rapunzel.

— Aah! — the blonde quickly hid behind a mannequin, a little frightened, since it was the first time that a person had invaded her tower, she observed again, the girl was still passed out.

However, she decided to approach, without taking her hands off the mannequin, afraid that the redhead would wake up, she would then come closer, with the frying pan in hand, she would then nudge the redhead to see if she reacted, there was no answer.

Rapunzel then took a deep breath and soon turned the face of the mysterious girl, being able to see her face better, she still had her eyes closed, soon Pascal her chameleon pointed to a painting that her mother had made of a man with fangs, the blonde slowly with the handle of the pan and pulled the corner of its mouth a little, she soon realized that she had fangs as her mother had said.

— Aah, a monster ! — she quickly kept beating the redhead on the head with the frying pan, with a certain fear, but after a while, the girl stopped it, since the mysterious girl was immobile:

— Did you see that? my mom may be right about bad people, but ... what should I do? — the chameleon shrugged, claiming he didn't know what to do either,

The blonde remained in the same place frightened, but held firmly her frying pan that she used as a defense weapon, in case the redhead woke up, in fact her mother was not so wrong about people being trapped, but soon she did not hesitate, and soon decided approaching, Matsuda's bangs covered her face, she still remained motionless.

— Hm ... — With the handle of the frying pan, she removed the fringe from her face, being able to see her face better, Rapunzel was astonished and was watching her "beautiful" face for a while, she was lost in thoughts in that moment, just looking at his unconscious face, until, the redhead woke up and raised his head slowly.

— What the hell-

— Ah! — The blonde quickly hit the pan on the girl's head, making her pass out again.

— Okay, okay, she passed out again ... what now? — Pascal with his head pointed at the wardrobe, which seemed like a good idea to hide the "body" there.

— Great. - Rapunzel pulled Matsuda by the legs towards the closet and wondered how she could put her there:

— Hmm .. — the girl then lifted the body and pushed it into the closet and closed it before it could fall, She took a green chair and put it in the wardrobe to make sure she would keep the body there, the girl took a deep breath and walked away holding firmly her frying pan.

— Okay, okay, I've got a girl in my closet, I've got a girl in my closet...

She looked at herself in the mirror and ended up smiling and laughing a little at her own situation:

— I've got a girl in my closet! Hahaha, I'm fragile enough to take care of myself out there, right, mother ? — the girl started to turn her frying pan

— Yeah ... tell that to my frying pa- — but she ended up accidentally hitting her face

The blondie saw in the reflection in the mirror, some things shining inside the satchel, possibly what the stranger carried when she invaded the tower, the blonde with long hair took the bag and took a transistor inside it, there was also a strange weapon that shone from colored shape and kept watching him, soon she saw something that shone more than the other belongings of the redhead, a beautiful tiara, but what would she be doing in that satchel ? she didn't know, she didn't even know what that was.

— Hmmm ...

She naively put it on his arm, like a bracelet, and looked at his chameleon waiting for some approval, he noddled negatively his head.

She then looked closely at the tiara, its beautiful expensive crystals embedded in it further embellished the tiara, the rubies that glowed red, Rapunzel then looked into the mirror and slowly put the tiara on her head, looking at herself at that moment, she felt something different in her, something that was part of her, as if that tiara was hers.

— Rapunzel ! let down your hair ! - if you could hear a scream calling the girl's name from under the tower, it was her mother, who had arrived from her trip, Rapunzel quickly put everything in a pot, and soon she quickly opened the window, putting on her hair on a hook:

— Wait a second ! — the blondie warned

— I have a big surprise! — the lady exclaimed happily

— Oh, I do too ... - Rapunzel replied in a nervous and forced tone, The girl looked like she wanted to show her mother what she had hidden in the closet, which, strangely, was a person.

— I bet my surprise is bigger !

~ I seriously doubt it ... — she whispered to herself as she pulled her hair up making her mother go up, making her reach the window:

— I brought lots of hazelnuts! I'll make hazelnut soup for dinner! Your favorite, surprise!

— Well mother, I want to show you something. — Rapunzel clarified, trying to explain to her mother about what the girl who had invaded her home, but it seemed that Gothel wasn't wanting to know that.

— Rapunzel, You know I hate leaving you after an discussion, especially when I absolutely didn't do nothing wrong.

— Okay, I've been thinking a lot about what you said earlier-

— I hope it's not still talking about the stars.

— Floating lights, and yes, that's the conversation. — The girl replied while trying to convince her mother about the conversation of the floating lights

— I really thought that you're done about this, sweetheart.

Rapunzel tried to explain to Gothel, but it seemed that she was neglecting about it:

— No mom, I just saying you think I'm not strong enough to handle myself out there-

— Oh darling, I know you aren't strong to take care of yourself out there. — Rapunzel's conversation was cut short by Gothel, who tried in any way to disturb his daughter.

— But if you just ... — But she continued

- Rapunzel...we're done talking about this... - the lady clarified trying to escape the subject as much as she could

— Please trust me, I know what I'm doing-

— Rapunzel...

— Oh, come on ...

— ENOUGH WITH THE LIGHTS, RAPUNZEL ! YOU WILL NOT LEAVING THIS TOWER, EVER !

The girl resented, and gave up what she was going to show her mother, all she wanted was just a little attention to the things that really mattered to her, Gothel then sat on a chair:

— Ah, great ! now I am the bad guy ... — she lamented

Rapunzel then looked at the painting he had done on the wall, and looked down, and tried to tell a lie, to try to comfort his mother:

— All I was gonna say mother is that... I know what I want for my birthday now.

— And what is that? — she asked

— I think ... new paint, that paint made with the white shells you once brought me.

— But that is a very long trip, Rapunzel, almost three days time. — the lady complained

— I just thought it was a better idea than the stars. — The blonde replied, in a sad tone, then the lady got up and went to her daughter:

— You will be alright on your own ? — Gothel asked

The girl then embraces her mother, who then calmly repays her, That moment seemed sweet, then Rapunzel said as she was comforted by Gothel:

— I know I'll be safe here.

After a while, Rapunzel would be adjusting her mother's basket, while she was packing up her cloak, ready to go on her journey:

— I'll be back in three days time, I love you very much dear.

— I love you more .. — the blonde answered

— I love you most... — Gothel replied back

And then the blonde handed the basket to her mother, who took hold of the hair and started to descend, then she was seen from below walking to the cave soon waving at him, Rapunzel waved seeing her mother leaving, gradually disappearing into the darkness.

At that moment, it seemed that it would last forever, seeing her mother leave, Rapunzel was always used to it, but what she never got used to, is being in such a small tower, inside such a big world.

The girl remembered the "invader" and quickly ran to the wardrobe, so she took off the chair that supported the closet and then took a deep breath, and then throwed her hair forward which tied the handle of the wardrobe, and then she pulled and opened the door, and then Matsuda, still passed out, falled to the floor.

Rapunzel was a little surprised, a stranger being in her room, she approached her and watched what she could do with the redhead.

A while passed, and Matsuda was tied to a chair with hair, she is pulled towards the natural light that hit the tower's windows, little by little it seemed that she was slowly regaining consciousness, and then, the redhead opened her eyes, and noticed the situation she was in, tied to a chair in an unknown place:

— Huh ? what... ? — she tried to move but she was trapped and then she looked around and just saw hair:

— Is that ... hair?

- Struggling, struggling is pointless ! - a female voice could be heard exclaiming in the shadows, Matsuda was a little perplexed, because she had never seen anyone with as much hair as hers.

— What are you talking about ? — the redhead asked

The figure then descended from the scale on which it was resting.

— I know why you're here, and I'm not ... afraid of you!

— Seriously, what are you talking about? — she repeated again, in a stronger tone.

The figure came closer, revealing herself to be a beautiful girl with golden hair, with eyes the same greenish color as Matsuda had.

— Who are you, and how did you find me?

— Oh...this conversation is starting to interest me... — says Matsuda

— Who are you, and how did you find me !? — she threatened in a stronger tone while holding her frying pan tightly.

— * laughs * Seriously, I don't understand this story, I don't know you, I don't even know how I got here to find you, but if you want to know ...

— how are you? my name is Matsuda, how is your day going? I know I know, mine doesn't go very well * laughs * — The redhead tried to stare at the girl, with a mean and even insane smile, her eyes that almost the same color as the blonde gave her an extra charm, but her appearance didn't say the same.

— Who else knows about where I live, Matsuda?

— Hey, kid ...

— Rapunzel.

- Okay, I'm kind of a time traveler, so I ended up entering that timeline, but my transitions ended up failing and now it doesn't work anymore and now I'm stuck here, you know? I don't think you should have understood anything I said, right?

— ...It is possible ?

— Yes ! if it weren't, i wouldn't be here talking to you and ... wait, where's my satchel ? — Matsuda was in despair when she learned that her purse was missing, it contained one of the most precious things for her at that moment: the tiara.

— I hid, in a place where you will never find.

— I'm sure it's in that pot over there.

She again took a blow with the frying pan that made her pass out again, a little time passed, and she regained consciousness again.

— And now, girl ? — the redhead asked

— Now, I hid in a place where you will never find.

— Wow, you really are very smart. — said the redhead in a tone of sarcasm

— Thanks.

— So, what do you want to do with my hair, do you want to cut it? sell it?

— And why would I cut your hair to sell? look, all i want is for you to let me go, so we stay even, don't we? — the redhead pleaded

— Wait, don't you care about my hair?

— And why would I go? I also have long hair, not as much as yours, I just saw this tower and went up, end of story.

— That's true ? — Rapunzel asked, Seeming not to believe what Matsuda said, but anyway, for the redhead, her only goal was to get out of the tower and go.

— Don't you believe me, baby?

— Hmm .. — The blonde's look was mysterious and she looked at her stiffly, her's chameleon emerged from her shoulder and would walk by her arm to her frying pan, coming face to face with Matsuda, who kept a brave smile at that moment, then Rapunzel stayed in her corner with Pascal while talking to him:

— I know that I need someone to take me, I also think she is not lying, but ... she has fangs, maybe my mom is right, what if she is someone bad? but do we have another choice?

Matsuda continued to glance but she disguised:

— Okay, Matsuda, I'm going to offer a deal, look over here.

— A deal ? you must be kidding me!

Rapunzel pulled her hair turning the chair to the side where there was a big platform, where Rapunzel was pointing to a painting she had previously done:

— Do you know what these things are? — the blonde asked while pulling the curtain

— Let me see ... I think they are lanterns, right?

— Lanterns ... I knew they weren't stars ... well, tomorrow evening, they will appear in the sky with these lanterns, you will be my guide, you will take me to the lanterns, then, and only then, I'll return your satchel to you and set you free, that's my deal. — she claims in an authoritarian tone.

— Hmmmm I don't think it will work ... I don't like helping helpless little girls who think they will force people to make their dreams come true ... and you're starting to bore me ... — The redhead refused Rapunzel's request, clearly didn't give a damn what the girl said, typical of Matsuda.

Rapunzel get irritated and get off the platform she was on, and approached slowly pulling the chair closer, while clarifying:

— Something brought you here, Matsuda, call it what you want, fate, destiny ...

— So I decided to trust you. — Rapunzel answered

— Hahahaha, a terrible decision!

— But, trust me when I tell you this ...

Rapunzel stared at Matsuda as she pulled the chair forward, with a cold look, Matsuda still maintained her neutral smile:

— You can destroy this tower stone by stone, but without my help you will never find your precious satchel... — Rapunzel stated

— So if I take you to see the lanterns, you will return my backpack, won't you?

— It's a promise, and a promise from me is never, never broken, I swear.

— Awww... come on.. I worked so hard to get here, and are you forcing me to go with you to see these stupid lanterns? Kid, please..

— If you're not, you'll have to say goodbye to your satchel. — she threatened while keeping her serious stare;

— Hahahahaha, you did it, you did it, ok, I'll take you to see the lanterns.

- Swear? - she then stopped supporting the chair, causing Matsuda to fall face down on the floor, the blonde's gaze changed, becoming something more cheerful and lively, because the redhead had accepted her proposal, but she was embarrassed when she realized what she had done:

— Oops... — She says, embarassed.

— Congratulations, you broke my face. — Matsuda replied

A while passed, and Matsuda would already be descending from the tower with the arrows and then she asked looking up:

— Hey, You will come, kid ? — Matsuda asked

There was Rapunzel, prepared to finally leave the tower that she had waited for so long for this moment, she looked down and realized that it was very high, but she wasn't afraid:

— ~ Okay, let's just go down and finally see what's out there ... why can't I? ~ — she thought, and took a deep breath, her legs were shaking a little, but it wasn't because of the cold, everything seemed new to her, but why was it so difficult for her to get down?

She looked at Pascal, who was prepared and tied up to be able to descend from the tower with her, and then she threwed all her hair from the tower and went down the tower, but quickly stopped when she reached the grass, a little scared since she had never stepped on the grass before. , she put one foot on the grass and then put the other, then she smiled and lay down on the grass:

— It's so soft! — she exclaimed

— I'm free, I'm really free ! — Then, the girl starts running on the soft green grass as the butterflies and birds pass by her.

Rapunzel then saw a lake and entered it and threw all the water up, his happiness was so great that it overflowed at that moment. After a while she was a little far from the tower:

— I can't believe I did this ! I can't believe I did this ... I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID THIS ! Mother will be soooo furious ...

— ~ but that's okay, I mean what she doesn't know won't kill her... right ? ~ — the blondie thought

— Oh my gosh, this will kill her...

Her thoughts went far, but than they should, her desire for freedom was stronger than the thought that her's mother could be angry.

— THIS IS SO FUUUUUUUUN !

— ~ I'm a horrible daughter, I'm going back. ~

And her thoughts didn't stop there, she continued daydreaming and having several mood swings.

— I will never going back !

— ~ I am a despicable human being! ~

— BEST. DAY. EVER !

In the end, all these unexplained feelings and oscillations, he ended up making her cry by a rock, shrunken, her internal conflict had ended in sadness, so the redhead approached the tearful girl.

— I know you are experiencing some problems and such, that I cannot deny ..

— What ?

— Let's see, overprotective mother, forbid leaving the house, but let me tell you, you should go out a little, blow some things up, a little rebellion and fun is always healthy!

— You think ? — she would say while wiping tears, feeling better with the redhead's words.

— Are you thinking too much, should you get some rest, maybe break your mother's heart? yes, but you can't do anything.

— Hurt her? — the blonde asked

— Yes.

— And crush her soul ?

— As fuck.

— She will be disappointed, you are right ...

— It's complicated, I know.

— But you know what? I will cancel this agreement.

— What !?

— That's right, you don't need to thank me. — she would say while taking the frying pan and chameleon by the tail.

— Let's go back to the tower, get my satchel back and my stuff and you get your mother and daughter relationship back and bye! We ended up well!

— No, I need to see, the lanterns!

— I'm done with your lanterns ! and when are you going to return my things and my weapons !?

— Don't talk to me like that ... — Rapunzel warned while threatening her with the frying pan

She heard something moving in the bushes suddenly and loudly and quickly held on to Matsuda:

— Are ruffians ! thugs, came to get me! — for a few moments it looked like it was a bigger and dangerous animal, then Matsuda was in a fighting pose, waiting for that monster, but all this noise was coming from a rabbit, which would come out of there.

— ...what ? — Rapunzel was confused

— All of this because of a fucking rabbit?

— What do you mean by "fucking" ? — the girl asked innocently

— Forget it !

— Ah, sorry, I'm just kinda ... scared.

— So, you're talking exactly to a ruffian. — she played

— What ?

— Hahahaha, I was just teasing ! — The red-haired girl laughed at Rapunzel as she patted the girl on the back, who was still confused.

— So, I think I know a great place to start. — Matsuda claimed

— But how ?

— Don't worry, you'll see.

Meanwhile, in the confines of the forest, there was Maximus hunting for something or some clue, until he heard a noise coming near the place, he would then hide in a stone waiting for that figure to come, and as soon as the figure approached. Maximus jumped in front of the figure, bouncing loudly, it was Gothel who was a little scared, the horse was disappointed with what he saw.

— Ah ... a palace's horse... where's the rider? Rapunzel ? Rapunzel !

She then hurriedly ran through the forest dropping the basket, running in despair towards the place where the tower was, and as she approached the tower she screamed a little breathlessly:

— Rapunzel ! Let down your hair !

There was no answer from her:

— Rapunzel !?

There was still no answer, no matter how hard she tried, she noticed that the girl was no longer there, so she desperately went towards a part of the tower, took out the vines and started tearing stone by stone. What could be a secret passage? perhaps.

She would then reach the tower, opening the stone trapdoor in complete despair, and then look around and go to the bedroom:

— Rapunzel ?

In complete despair and anguish she took off the blanket, no sign of the girl, she checked everywhere:

- Rapunzel ! - she called by her name, but there was no answer, she even took the curtain off the window that was in the room, which now, better illuminated the room, all that despair was still in Gothel's head, so much so that her breath was labored. She looked at the stairs and saw something shining in the light, she then approached and took a marble step from the stairs that was a little loose, and there, she saw a bag and then she took the crown that was glittering. She for some reason was frightened by the crown and then dropped it on the floor, she then looked for more and then found a wanted poster, which was Matsuda's one, that poster didn't seem to belong to that kingdom, since it didn't have that seal that Corona always put, but another seal, but it was not counterfeit, the only answer is that she wasn't from Corona, but specifically from the city of Runteera.

This gave the idea that the girl was a criminal, even if she was from another city, so Gothel looked with a look of fury and hatred and then, she would go to a table and go and open a drawer, inside there was a dagger and she took the same, what could she do?

A while passed, and the two girls were walking through the forest full of greenish wonders, Rapunzel then observed a beautiful blue flower and smelled it, so Matsuda thought:

— ~ Shit, where did I go? Before I was running away from guards and now I'm stuck with this girl, what am I supposed to do? ~

— You know Matsuda, there are so many amazing things here! look at this !

— Yes, I can see ..

- ~ I should just run away and leave this girl alone, it's so simple, fuck her dream, it's more important that I get out of this reality at once than to make a spoiled girl's dream come true ... ~

— ~ Okay, I will do that ~ — The girl resented and took a deep breath

Matsuda then picked up a stick he found on the floor and then aimed at Rapunzel's head while she was distracted, but when Matsuda was ready to hit the young girl on the head, the blonde quickly turned her face and then Matsuda hid the stick.

— What are you doing ? — Rapunzel asked

— Ah ... nothing, nothing ...

Rapunzel then got distracted again, the redhead then took a deep breath and took the stick again and aimed the girl at the head and when she was going to try to disagree, she said:

— Good ! I think we should be going! — she then started walking and then Matsuda gave up and dropped the stick there and followed the girl, Rapunzel noticed that Matsuda was disappointed and asked again:

— Hey, is everything okay?

— Oh, of course I do!

~ Seriously, I need to get back to my crew soon, or maybe I will be in this reality forever. ~

— You said you have something to show me!

— Oh yes, if I'm not mistaken, it was a kind of bar ... — the redhead deduced

— Hmmm, I feel it must be around ...

They then found a large bar in front, and a sign that looked old that says "Snuggly Duckling":

— Ah, look ... it's that duckling over there.

— I think it's perfect for you! — the redhead claimed

— You won't give up this easy will you? — Matsuda tried to persuade the girl with his words, while crossing his arms

— Well, I like that, you know?

— Great !

The girl quickly walked to the filthy bar and then waited for the blonde to come:

— You don't come ?

— Yes...

The blonde approached Matsuda while she opened the door and shouted:

— GARÇON, your finest table please !

Rapunzel was frightened by what she saw, seeing several big guys and ruffians looking at her with a serious and angry look, there were a man with a hook instead of a hand, one with a blind eye and several others, that horrible smell of drink invaded the place, which had become very uncomfortable, the blonde was even more scared and pointed her frying pan at them to try to protect herself:

— Are you feeling this? that's the smell of the food, but you know ... it's also my first time here, so it's normal to feel that way, But you know what? we can go more often to eat here, this could be my favorite place! — the redhead would say while accompanying the blonde being very close to her

~ Are you crazy? — the girl whispered to Matsuda

— Maybe, hahahaha.

Rapunzel felt her hair being pulled by someone, she then tried to grab her hair while walking backwards, she was caught by one of the big guys:

— That's a lot of hair...

— It's quite a hair, isn't it? but you know, this kid is here for some reasons don't you know ?

Rapunzel would still be scared walking backwards, pointing the frying pan at all the thugs in the bar, a little haunted maybe, that was too new for her, and maybe a very dark experience at first:

— Don't you want me to order a meal, or maybe a drink? You never drank did you?

— Stop it ! — The blonde pleaded while she was scared, her fear was great, so much that she was shaking a lot and her skin was cold.

— Hmmm okay. — the redhead goes to the bar where the bartender was, she said in a persuasive and hurried tone:

— Give me a beer, but only one, because ... this little blond girl here, doesn't seem to be much of a drink. — Matsuda said while patting Rapunzel on the shoulder that she was scared by all that

— Aw, come on Rapunzel! you need to relax ... — Pleaded the redhead, while a bartender, with a serious look, just like everyone at the bar was, filled a mug of beer and handed the girl over.

— I don't feel very good ... this place scares me.

- It's okay to feel that way, forget about those idiots looking at us, pretend that no one is here.

— I can't, this ruffians are gonna kill us! — Rapunzel replied, clearly disturbed, the redhead realized that the girl wasn't so well and decided to get up, Going to the exit with Rapunzel.

— You're not so okay, don't you want to stop here? we'll be back the other day, so you better go back to your home-

When they headed towards the exit, the door was quickly closed by one of the men while there was a sign on the door:

— Is that you !? - he asked shouting

She took the poster and saw her face emblazoned on it, this time, there was a corona signature stamped there:

— Oops, I knew I was going to win a fame.

— Hohoho, Breno will call the guards! this reward will earn me a brand new hook ...

- Hey calm calm big guy, we can solve this in other ways, we just came here just to drink a little. - the redhead pleaded while walking away while big guys approached her

— I want that money!

— And I ? I'm broke, she's mine! — The big guy exclaimed

All the men were around the redhead, perhaps ready to attack the girl, Rapunzel stayed behind in that crowd of ruffians, but she struggled to get in that glance, afraid to know what the girl's fate would be.

— Please stop! — Rapunzel tried to get the attention of the bearded men who would go towards the redhead, but they completely ignored her.

— Gentlemen, we can calmly resolve this! — she would say while taking a bottle of whiskey and breaking it using a cutting "gun" pointing at them

— Hey, leave her alone! — the girl exclaimed trying to enter the crowd of men who held the redhead taking the weapon she tried to use to defend herself.

— Give her back! your ruffians! — Rapunzel so tossed her hair to the ceiling, making her tie herself to a branch, she then pulled that branch as hard as she could, while the thugs were ready to punch the red-haired girl, who this time, had no weapons to protect herself:

— You idiots, I would blow you all up if I got my Fish Bones back ! — Matsuda exclaimed

And then, she Rapunzel loosened her hair, which made the branch fall directly on the head of one of the thugs, finally getting their attention:

— Leave. her. alone !

One of them turned his face with an irritated look:

— Oh, okay, I don't know what kind of place this is, but I need it to take me to the lanterns, because I dreamed of them my whole life! Have sensitivity! You never had a dream in your life?! — the blonde girl pleaded

The brute then took one of his axes and approached the blonde, while the others watched him, the blonde was left with no way out and just walked backwards, until the brute said:

— I ... had a dream once...

I'm malicious, mean and scary

My sneer could curdle dairy

And violence-wise my hands are not the cleanest

But despite my evil look and my temper and my hook

I've always yearned to be a concert pianist

Can't you see me on the stage performing Mozart

Tickling the ivories till they gleam

Yep, I'd rather be called deadly for my killer show-tune medley

'Cause way down deep inside I've got a dream

He's got a dream

He's got a dream

See, I ain't as cruel and vicious as I seem

Though I do like breaking femurs, you can count me with the dreamers

Like everybody else, I've got a dream

A lady came near the bar listening to the song from afar, she then took off her hood revealing her beautiful curly hair, it was Gothel, meanwhile, at the bar:

I've got scars and lumps and bruises...

Plus something here that oozes...

And let's not even mention my complexion..

But despite my extra toes!

And my goiter...

And my nose!

I really want to make a love connection...

Can't you see me with a special little lady..

Rowing in a rowboat down a stream!

Though I'm one disgusting blighter!

I'm a lover, not a fighter!

'Cause way down deep inside I've got a dream!

I've got a dream!

He's got a dream!

I've got a dream!

He's got a dream!

And I know one day romance will reign supreme...

Though my face leaves people screaming!

There's a child behind it dreaming...

Like everybody else, I've got a dream!

Toll would like to quit and be a florist!

Gunter does interior design...

Urf is into mime!

Attila's cupcakes are sublime!

Bruiser knits!

Killer sews!

Ven does little puppet shows!

And Vladimir collects ceramic unicorns...

Then all the men went to Matsuda, changing their gaze to a serious look:

— What about you ? — Hook asked in a harsh and cold way

— Sorry, what ? — But the girl did not understand the question in any way, maybe she is doing it just for fun.

— What's your dream ?

— Sorry guys, I have no dreams.

The big guys pointed their swords towards the redhead's neck:

— Okay, okay, I sing ... but then don't complain that my voice sounds like a dying person.

The redhead went up on a balcony and started singing in her voice, a little hoarse and terrible for singing:

Maybe I have a dream, but not like those!

I dreamed that all I wanted was to explode!

In a bathtub full of bullets, with no one to stop me!

And flying kites in the open sky!

I've got a dream!

She's got a dream!

I've got a dream!

She's got a dream!

I just want to see the floating lanterns gleam!

And with every passing hour!

I'm so glad I left my tower!

Like all you lovely folks, I've got a dream!

She's got a dream!

She's got a dream!

They got a dream!

We've got a dream!

So our differences ain't really that extreme!

We're one big team!

Call us brutal!

Sick!

Sadistic!

And grotesquely optimistic!

'Cause way down deep inside we've got a dream!

I've got a dream!

I've got a dream..

I've got a dream..

I've got a dream..

I've got a dream..

I've got a dream..

Yes, way down deep inside, I've got a dream!

Yeah!

Everything was fine, Rapunzel felt better until then, just like the big guys, until one of the men would open the door, it was Breno:

— I found the guards! - he warned

Quickly, Matsuda pulled Rapunzel's hand, leading it to an empty counter, hiding there, while the leading guard would come, he would have a bandage on his left arm, the place where he was shot earlier:

— Where's the girl !? Where is she !? — he shouted asking about Matsuda

— I know she's here somewhere, find her ! turn this place upside down if you need to ! — he exclaimed

He punched the counter table that was where the two girls were, Matsuda then, glanced, there she saw someone familiar, it was the arrogant guy who always complains, Kayn, but what would he be doing there? Probably he was caught as an accomplice, there was also a man with white hair who was also handcuffed, it was Yasuo, the redhead quickly hid again on the counter, until he saw one of the big guys who had a hook instead of his hand calling for both, he then opened a secret passage that was a kind of tunnel that was on the floor of the bar, without the guards noticing and the grown man said:

— Over there, live your dream ...

— Okay .. — replied the redhead

- You don't have a dream, I was talking to her. — he was referring to Rapunzel, then the red-haired criminal started to crawl into the tunnel.

— Thanks for everything .. — she would say while also entering the secret passage.

— It's very dark here ... — Rapunzel complained

— That's because you didn't see the place where I lived ..

— and where did you live?

— It doesn't matter to you, just keep walking. — The redhead complains, maybe a little stressed, it was hard to see her like this, in reality, she almost never got like that, what was happening to her?

Meanwhile, there would be Gothel, watching the guards discovering the tunnel thanks to Maximus, Kayn managing to escape in search of the girl, following after, until she saw an old drunk approaching her:

— I've got a dream ... I've got a dream...

— Ow calls the guards, that this woman has just stolen my heart! — he babbled, clearly drunk

— Ah stop that, your heartthrob, hahahaha .. — The woman's words were seductive, but only for a few seconds.

She then pointed a knife at the neck of that drunk man:

— Where is that tunnel let out ? — she asked

— Knife!...
