So I'm slowly but surely figuring out how to add songs in here. Any requests are welcome. The songs will play a pretty major role later on, or at least help advance the level of emotion felt in the movie. If you have any ideas, thoughts, constructive criticism, suggestions, requests, ect, REVIEW. Seriously, someone reviewed this morning and it made my day. I LOVE reviews.
INT- THE SEASONS' CAVE
The group of teenagers and the dragon all look around at the cave.
MERIDA
What happened here?
"Oh, wow." Lucinda breathed.
"Even we couldn't do that." Ruffnut said.
The whole place is in ruins. The only thing left unscathed is the wall with the runes and the diamond on it. Everyone moves cautiously and Merida pulls her bow from around her shoulders, knocking an arrow just in case.
JACK
What did this?
HICCUP
Not even the twins could do this. Maybe a dragon, but this wasn't a dragon.
Toothless croons softly at the comment. Eugene keeps a grip on Rapunzel's hand as they move cautiously forward. Then a sound like a rattling breath, almost as though someone's lungs were filled with water, echoed.
"What's that?" Emma whispered, a little bit scared. Jack turned around.
"Come here, Emma." He said. She immediately darted around the couch and rocketed into his lap. Serenity smiled sadly at the pair.
MARIA
Bones.
"What?" Gobber breathed.
Skeletons, some with flesh still attached to them and ragged clothing, start moving forward towards them with swift but jerking moves. Merida releases an arrow, which hits one in the skull. The creature just keeps moving.
MARIA
You can't beat them like that. Use your powers!
Merida glances anxiously at the others before she holds out her palm, biting her lip in concentration. A ball of fire appears in her palm and she throws it as hard as she can. It hits one of the skeletons and the thing crumples.
"Well tha's new!" Merida exclaimed.
Jack glances around, surrounded. Panicked he stumbles before his staff taps the ground and he sees a design of frost spread. He slams his staff down onto the ground and a whirlwind of ice shoots out, impaling each of the skeletons.
Emma, Lucinda, Jack, and James all had stunned looks. Jack glanced at his staff and then shook his head.
"What am I getting into?" he wondered.
He looks stunned. The skeletons fall to the ground. Hiccup and Rapunzel look at a loss.
HICCUP
How do we fight?
RAPUNZEL
I doubt growing a few flowers will… help…
"You've got an idea." Eugene laughed.
A look of comprehension dawns on her face. She crouches down and places a hand to the floor. Immediately roots and vines begin shooting upwards, wrapping themselves around the skeletons and pulling them apart or knocking them to the ground.
Eugene stopped laughing, staring at his future-fiancé in shock. She looked pretty stunned herself, though honestly felt a sort of pride.
"And Gothel didn't think I could handle myself." She murmured.
Hiccup turns to see a skeleton above him. He stumbles backwards, lashing out with one hand. An autumn leaf, razor sharp, embeds itself in the skeleton's forehead. It crumples and Hiccup stares at his hand. Before his eyes another leaf materializes.
"Remind me not to get on your bad side." Jack chuckled. The Vikings all stared at their heir in shock.
"So I can throw razor sharp leaves like a nadder can throw spikes. That's interesting." Hiccup deadpanned.
HICCUP
Whoa…
JACK
Duck!
Jack shoves Hiccup, throwing him to the ground as one of the bones flies over them, having tried to blind-side Hiccup.
HICCUP
Thanks.
JACK
Anytime.
The four seasons group together, back to back. Even though they are still new to the fighting, they are a force to be reckoned with. They fight as a seamless team.
"It's like you've known each other forever." Astrid said. The four exchange looks.
"I guess it kind of is." Jack said. Even just sitting next to each other put the four at ease, the same comfort when sitting next to a sibling or close friend.
Eugene and Maria hide in a small crevice in the rock. Maria has a knowing, proud look on her face as Eugene stares in awe. Within minutes, the attack is over. Rapunzel runs over and hugs Eugene tightly. Jack sinks to the floor, panting and in shock. Blood trickles from a cut on his arm.
"First battle?" Merida asked with a wry smile. He nodded weakly.
"That's always rough." She said.
"Once the adrenaline wears off, yeah it is." Hiccup said, rubbing Toothless's head.
"You're hurt!" Emma exclaimed.
"I'm fine, Emma, look." Jack held out his arm for her to see.
JACK
I was so not trained for this. I'm a shepherd.
He puts his head on his knees, trying to calm down. Hiccup puts a hand on his shoulder.
HICCUP
Don't worry. For a shepherd, you put up one heck of a fight.
"Thank you. That was very comforting considering all I usually go up against are a few wolves." Jack said sarcastically.
Rapunzel notices that Jack is bleeding.
RAPUNZEL
Here, let me help.
She walks over, pulling a necklace that was hidden under the collar of her dress out. It's a tiny vial full of clear liquid. She pours a drop onto the wound and begins to sing.
RAPUNZEL
(Singing)
Flower gleam and glow, let your power shine. Make the clock reverse; bring back what once was mine. Heal what has been hurt; change the fates' design. Save what has been lost. Bring back what once was mine. What once was mine.
"This doesn't make sense."
The droplet sinks into the wound and a golden glow in the shape of a flower hides the wound for a moment before fading away. Jack's arm is healed.
JACK
How did you do that?
RAPUNZEL
The short version is when I was younger, my hair was about seventy feet long and blonde. When I sang that song, it glowed and healed people. When it was cut it turned brown and loses it's power. My tears still heal. I'll tell the full story later.
"This I want to hear." Jack said, raising an eyebrow at the other brown-haired teen.
She hides her necklace again.
MERIDA
What were those things?
MARIA
Bones. It is time I explain to you what we are up against.
"No. Kidding." Hiccup said.
