The Big Four: Drabbles and One-shots
Kura: Enjoy.
Sakura: Here it is, Let it go.
Notes: Angst. Rise in self-confidence. No pairing. Jack starts looking human. Rapunzel has short brown hair. Hicca looks like HTTYD self. The trio change their appearances near the end. All fem! Big Four.
Summary: Jack, Hicca, Merida and Rapunzel each leave their homes. Why? Well, they each have powers but are seen as monsters, a danger, pathetic. So they leave. They meet up along the way, learning that together, they are strong. They just have to let it go first.

Let It Go
"I'm sorry!" Jack cried.
The town's priest stormed up to her, "SORRY?! IF YOU WERE SORRY, YOU'D LEAVE! DEVIL CHILD! SPAWN OF THE ANITCHRIST! GET OUT! TAKE YOUR CURSE WITH YOU AND NEVER RETURN!" Jack's eyes widened and she ran.
Merida rode off on Angus. She didn't mean to. She didn't think it would be that bad. But they yelled at her. Called her a monster from the infernos of the underworld. They were scared of her.
Hicca didn't want to go back. So she had powers over autumn?! SO WHAT?! Well, I'll tell you what, had she not left, she would have been sent to Outcast Island. 'I guess I never belonged...' Hicca sighed as she mounted Toothless.
Rapunzel let the tears in her eyes fall as she grabbed Pascal and jumped onto Max. She was beginning to be shunned. Eugene was shipped off to who knows where, and her new husband to be, had found out that she had powers over spring. Said it was pathetic. That she shouldn't have ever returned. That she should just wither like the pathetic flowers she made.
Everyone groaned. They looked around, opening their mouths to ask who they were, when a cough came. A girl walked over, her hair braided.
"My name is Karma," she said, "sit. And watch in silence as I show you your children." Karma waved and arm and a cloud appeared. Everyone closed their eyes and opened them in time to see their children/child they knew.
Four girls could be seen walking up a mountain. Though, they weren't together. But each had a sad look. Slowly, they tredge up the snowy mountains.
The snow glows white on the mountain tonight,
not a footprint to be seen.
The four girls stopped walking, their companions/friends catching up to them.
A kingdom of isolation, and it looks like,
I'm the Queen.
The four girls each looked around for moment before moving on, each hugging themselves.
The wind is howling like the swirling storm inside.
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried.
A sense of mourning seemed to engulf the four girls. They sighed inaudibly and continued up the mountain.
Don't let them in.
Don't let them see.
Be the good girl you always had to be.
A repetition of words. Be the good girl they always had to be. They were always told to be good girls and to...
Conceal, don't feel.
Four hands shook as if lecturing. They then swung downwards in a slashing motion.
Don't let them know...
Four pairs of eyes glare at four single gloves before pulling them off.
well know they know!
The four girls swung their arms up, gloves catching in the wind and flying away.
Let it go!
Let it go!
The four girls looked at their hands as they tossed snow, flowers, leaves and fire from them.
Can't hold it back anymore!
Jack made a snowman appear, Hicca a pile of leaves, Merida a small phoenix that was bursted into flames and Rapunzel made a glowing flower appear
Let it go!
Let it go!
The four tossed their powers into the air before letting them fall to the ground.
Turn my back and slam the door!
I don't care, what they're going to say!
Jack and Hicca swung their arms to the left while Merida and Rapunzel swung theirs to the right. Fire, ice, leaces and flowers burst out from each.
Let the storm rage on...
The cold never bothered me anyways.
Hicca and Rapunzel shrugged off their cloaks, letting them fall to them ground. Merida and Jack unclipped their capes, letting the wind make them blow away.
It's funny how some distance, makes everything seem small.
Jack, Merida, Hicca and Rapunzel each rolled their eyes to look at the area around them. It was so open. No walls. No limitations. Nothing to fear...
And the fear that once controlled me, can't get to me at all!
Jack, Merida, Hicca and Rapunzel looked around. They each caught sight of a cliff not far from where they stood. They wondered how they would get to the it and in a snap, their arms shot out.
It's time to see, what I can do.
Ice, fire, leaves of multiple colors and flower petals burst out from each of the four girls hands. Jack's faced north. Merida south. Hicca west and Rapunzel east.
To test the limits and break through,
no rights,
no wrongs,
no rules for me...
I'm free!
The four girls, though not together, had perfectly in sync placed a foot on their stairs.
Let it go!
Let it go!
Jack, Merida, Hicca and Rapunzel smiled as their stairs hardened. Looking up, they started to sprint up the steps.
I'm one with the wind and sky!
Jack, Hicca, Merida and Rapunzel each ran up their set of stairs. None of them knowing that they were all going in the same direction.
Let it go!
Let it go!
The girls each spun around and saw one another. Yet, they felt at peace with one another. Almost as if...as if they were destined to meet.
You'll never see me cry!
Here I stand!
The four girls stared at each other for another moment before slamming their foot. A beautiful design for the four Seasons appearing.
And here I'll stay!
Let the storm rage on...
They lifted their arms and raised the floor a bit as walls and pillars began to form.
My powers flurries through the air into the ground!
The four girls waved their arms at the floor before bringing them up and creating not only the walls of their new home, but a tree. The Tree of Season.
My soul is spiraling in frozen fragments, all arround!
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast!
A chandelier made of non-melting ice, adorned with color changing leaves and blooming flowers appeared. Slowly, flames appeared on its end.
I'm never going back...
Jack looked at the engagement ring on her finger and slowly pulled it off. Hicca removed her helmet, staring at it, she frowned slighting. Merida ripped off her necklace. Rapunzel took off her tiara. They knew what they had to do. They had to let them go.
The past is the past!
Smiles adorning their faces, the four girls flung the pieces of their past. The helmet. The necklace. The tiara. And the engagement ring. All of them were gone. The weight of responsibilities secrecy and fear was lifted off of their shoulders at last.
Let it go!
Let it go!
And I'll rise like the break of dawn!
Merida ripped off the white cloth on her head, flames burning it into ashes. Her red hair was free and framed her face nicely. She snapped her fingers and her bow appeared in her hands. Her quiver appeared at her side. Hicca rubbed the back of her head, her hair getting a bit longer and darker. She actually grew a bit in height and filled out some more. Jack ran a single hand through her chocolate brown hair, turning it snow white. Her brown eyes faded to ice blue. She looked at her staff, broken in half. She swung them around and they got connected by a chain. Rapunzel smoothed back her short brown hair, getting a golden glow from it. The glow grew in lenght and when it faded, a river of golden hair was left in its place. Hicca wore armor, Merida wore what looked like a dress with armor on her chest. Rapunzel wore a dress made of flower petals and Jack wore a pair of deer hide pants and ice covered her chest as both an armor and curve hugging shirt that revealved her well toned abs.
Let it go!
Let it go!
Jack's arms frosted over, as did the corners of her eyes. Hicca's armor got darker, almost as if made from the same skin of her beloved Night Fury. She had a helmet in her arms, maple leaves attached themselves to her armor. Rapunzel's long goldeb hair piled behind her, flowers blooming everywhere. Floral spirals adorned her arms and cheeks. Merida's flaming hair was as wild as ever. Flames engulfed her quiver and the hem of her dress' skirt.
That perfect girl is gone!
Here I stand! In the light of day!
Arms spread out, the four girls marched out onto their balcony. They looked at each other and smiled.
Let the storm rage on!
Jack, Hicca, Rapunzel and Merida all stood firm. Each radiated with power. Crowns adorned their heads. Iviemu, Toothless, Pascal&Max, and Angus&Willow all stood by their masters. The sun was rising, all of them staring at the sign of a new beginning. Their new beginning.
The cold never bothered me anyways.
The door slammed as Jack waved her hand. The four walked deep within their new home, the Tree of Seasons in full bloom.
Everyone sat in shock. They were gone. They let go of the past. They were never coming back, were they?
"We're idiots..." Elinor cried softly. It hurt them all. Their children. Their own flesh and blood. Gone. And it was all their fault.
