Spirit of the Season
Artie watched as the others were asleep in the castle except for one.
It was Snowgre.
He was too freaked out by what had happened to sleep.
"It's okay Snowg, I'm here.
I won't let anything happen to you.
You're precious to me.
You know it." The young king said hugging him as he cried.
Fiona was in the stables.
Snow was lying on a bed of hay.
She saw sadness in those blue eyes of hers.
Fiona was thinking about what would happen if they couldn't get Snow back to normal.
"It's okay Fi-Fi we'll find a way.
You and the others always do succeed." Snow reassured her.
"I know but..... I have more to lose if I can't get you back to normal.
Hunters would be after you!" she replied crying a little.
Snow then wiped the tears away with her claw gently.
"Don't worry I'm not going anywhere!" Snow told her.
Fiona understood as she nodded.
Rapunzel growled.
She couldn't understand what made Fiona and the others so strong, that they were able to beat her.
She saw Snow roar and bare her claws as she appeared in the stables.
"Surprised to see me?
That's good because I want revenge for all those times you beat me or made me look like a loser Fi-Fi!" she cackled.
"It's okay Snowdrop I can take her just like I always have!" Fiona said taking a fighting stance.
"That's cute but I know you'd do anything to save your girl friend.
Surrender the kingdom to me and I might change her back now!" rAPUNZEL SAID SMILING.
Fiona froze at that.
She had a chance to save somebody she cared about.
"I can't risk the kingdom! Besides in her hands, Far, Far Away wouldn't be the same as it is with Artie.
It would be an unfair and unequal kingdom to live in and that's something I won't let happen even if I've.... got to risk my own life to protect it!" Fiona thought.
"So have you given my offer some deep thought?" Rapunzel sneered.
"Yes but I won't do it.
Running this kingdom means more than sitting on a throne and ordering people around." she said.
"Really?
Enlighten me then." Rapunzel told her.
"Fine I will!
Being Queen or King means listening to the people and treating them as equals no matter if they're human, ogre, rich or poor and making things fair and caring about the kingdom and not just yourself.
Artie learnt this a long time ago that what others think doesn't matter and it's true.
To you, the kingdom doesn't matter and you'd only care about yourself.
That's why you'd never become Queen not as long as I live!" Fiona yelled.
Artie was impressed by his cousin.
"Very well.
If what I'm about to do means I'll be Queen!" Rapunzel cackled summoning all her magic.
"Fi-Fi no!" Snow yelled.
"Sorry Snowdrop but I have to do this so the kingdom will be safe from losers like her!" Fiona replied .
"Alright then but I will always love you no matter what happens." Snow replied.
"I know." Fiona said as Rapunzel released the blast.
After the dust settled, Snow saw Fiona lying there out cold.
"What've you done?
You're nothing but a cold hearted monster!" Artie yelled as Snow roared loudly.
"That's what she deserved.
Learn well that's what happens when you mess with me!" Rapinzel cackled leaving.
Fiona's eyes opened slowly after Rapunzel had left.
"Fi-Fi you're okay!" Snow said gently.
"Y-Yes I'm fine.
Not dead but hurt badly.
I-I'm so sorry.
All this happened because of me.
If Rapinzel hadn't been treated so meanly, she wouldn't be seeking revenge, she'd be our friend.
Maybe you should let me go." Fiona replied weakly.
"N-No I won't let you!
Don't.... you know..... you mean.... everything to me?
You're the reason I'm so confident.
Without you, I would be a scared little nothing, afraid to stand up for myself." Snow said as a tear hit Fiona's chest.
Suddenly a tear drop of magic surrounded Snow.
Artie watched amazed at the sight.
When it vanished, she was a princess again..
"B-But how?" Snow asked confused.
"You and Fiona's love broke the spell because Fiona was pure of heart by risking herself for the kingdom and for you.
Let's get her to the infirmary, okay?
Then we can kick that bald loser's butt!" Artie explained.
Snow nodded at his idea.
Rapinzel cackled as Lillian, the other princesses, Leah and Carley took fighting stances.
"You think you can beat me?
You're dreaming!" she cackled.
"I know we can beat you because unlike you, we have each other and Love's on our side while you have nobody and Hate is on yours.
You will never win as long as people like us stand up to the likes of you!" Carley replied.
Leah was impressed.
She'd never heard her girlfriend speak that bravely.
"We'll see freak!" Rapinzel said as they began to fight.
Artie was nervous watching his cousin lie there weak and hurt but he knew what would make him feel better.
"I'm going to bring her down!" he thought running to join the others.
Rapunzel smiled seeing only Leah and Carley left to fight.
"This is too easy!" she thought but then Carley's eyes glowed with Ogreix.
Leah had became a were wolf with glowing red eyes.
"H-How can you do that?
You're nothing but losers, weaklings!" Rapunzel yelled but they didn't reply as they joined their powers together.
Suddenly the blast hit Rapunzel.
They watched as the dust settled and Rapunzel was lying there but got to her feet.
"Why don't you finish me now?" she taunted.
"That's Artie's job." Leah said as the guards carried Rapunzel off....
