I do not own any Frozen Tangled characters involved.

"So did you find what you were looking for?" Greed asked.

"I didn't find what I was looking for exactly. But what I did discover was better than I ever could have imagined." Near answered.

"What did you find out?" Greed asked.

"This plan of mine. People have been attempting it for thousands of years. Everything is already in place. I just need the Dark Hado and I'll have the perfect world." Near said.

"How did that happen?" Greed asked.

Near got a map of the region and a pen and placed it down on the table.

"It all starts with Arendelle. Years ago their military would cause uprisings in specific places."

Near started to draw circles on the paper.

"These places were all battle locations from long ago to current events." Near said.

There were 15 circles on the paper each in different places.

"Connect the dots and..."

Near drew lines and circles on the paper and a complex shape formed.

"What in the world?" Greed asked.

"This has been coordinated for years. No one has been able to make it come to fruition. Until now." Near said.

"What kind of symbol is that?" Greed asked.

"You've heard the story of how the kingdom of Aswrath disappeared in one night. The entire kingdom was completely destroyed. Do you know how?" Near asked.

Near pointed to the symbol.

"This represents sacrifice. The entire kingdom was destroyed because of this." Near said.

"Why would someone want to sacrifice an entire kingdom?" Greed asked.

"So they could obtain this." Near said.

Near held up a red stone.

"You do know what this is don't you There's one inside you. It's your core." Near said.

"The Philosopher's Stone." Greed said.

"And do you know what the main ingredient is for a stone?"

"No." Greed said.

Near smirked.

"It's human life." Near answered.

Greed stepped back out of fear.

"Of all your talk you still have feelings. I wonder if they would call you a hypocrite." Near said.

"Hey. I never said I didn't have feelings." Greed argued.

"True." Near said back.

Near walked out of the room.

"I'm going to Arendelle. It's time to obtain the Dark Hado." Near said.

Blackness lifted Near off the ground and carried him toward Arendelle.


Wil was in the library with a map placed in front of him and a pen in his hand. There were piles of books stacked in front of him.

"1423, Arendelle and the Southern Isles skirmish on the Southern border." Wil thought.

Wil circled a spot on the map.

"This doesn't make any sense. There's no way one person could orchestrate something as big as this." Wil said.

Wil put the map down and started to run for the door.

"I have to tell them." Wil said out loud.

Near appeared in front of them before he could reach the door.

"What's the rush Wil? Going somewhere?" Near asked sarcastically.

"Get out of my way." Wil commanded.

"Sorry." Near said.

The blackness ran through Wil's body like spikes. His blood dripped onto the floor and deepened the red color of the scarlet carpet.

"I'd say nice knowing you Wil but really it hasn't. Oh and send Drago my regards when you see him in the afterlife. He'll be joining you soon." Near said.

Wil's eyes closed and his body weight dropped fully on the black spikes. The blackness disappeared and Wil's body dropped to the floor. Near walked over to the table and saw the map Wil drew on.

"I have to get rid of this before anyone else finds it." Near said out loud.

Near snapped his fingers and the map burned to ashes. Near heard the doors open. He turned around and saw Drago standing with trembling hands and shaking legs.

"Drago. Perfect timing. I was just having some fun with your friend here and things kind of went a little overboard." Near said.

"Cut the act Near. I know you did it." Drago said.

"You're right. And I'll gladly do the same to you." Near retorted. It's time I took the Dark Hado from you."

Near pulled out the purple crystal and held it out toward Drago. It started to glow brighter and a pair of dark hands emerged.

"When you see Wil say hi to him for me." Near said.

The hands came closer and closer to Drago. Suddenly, they were hit by a golden blast and they disappeared. Near turned his head and saw Anna and the others running toward them.

"Well look what the cat dragged in." Near said.

Anna stopped in her tracks at the sight of Wil's body. The blood was still flowing across the floor and expanding slowly.

"I'll be back. And just know that when that time comes... you're sacrifices will make my dream all worth while." Near said.

"What do you mean by sacrifice?" Elsa asked.

"You're all great candidates. I'm excited to see what the end result will be. I would hate for any of you to go to waste." Near said.

Blackness carried Near off into the horizon. Breaking part of the wall in the process.

"What did he mean by sacrifice?" Repunzel asked.

"I don't know. But whatever it is it can't be good." Eugene answered.

"I don't see why he would kill Wil." Anna said.

"I don't think he needs a motive." Kristoff said.

"No. Near always does things for a good reason." Drago said.

Eugene walked over to the table and saw ashes.

"Guys there's ashes over here." Eugene said.

"Why would there be ashes?" Elsa asked.

"He must have burned something. Maybe he's trying to keep us from discovering something." Drago said.

"What would he have to hide?" Repunzel asked.

Drago looked at the wall and saw a map of the region.

"Something bigger than all of us." Drago said.
