I'm soooo sorry I haven't been active! I had school and eveything -_- but I'm back and I promise I'll try to post more often! Anyway, here's chapter 2!


Flynn's POV:

Run. Run. Faster. Don't Stop. Keep running.

I sprint across the forest on the outside boundaries of The Kingdom of Haldane. I'm going so fast, that I don't even have time to sweat. I have no idea where I'm going, I just know that if I stop I'm beyond screwed. Apparently, security in Haldane is crazy! I'm learning that the hard way.

"STOP THEIF!" One of the guards yells, but of course I have no intention of slowing down.

I'm still running when I realize that I'll never be able to out run them forever, so I make a risky decision that could go horribly wrong if not done fast enough. I run a little further before making a swift left and climbing up the nearest tree. Out of breath, I look down to see that the guards have continued to go straight. When I'm convinced my plan worked, I let myself fall on the branch so I can rest. While lying down, I take a look inside my satchel. I find a loaf of bread, one earring and a diamond ring... with a plastic diamond. I grunt in frustration. They chased me all the way here for this crap? Idiots. I guess they've realized that I wasn't running anymore, because I hear horses coming back.

"Back to the Kingdom! He's not coming back!" says the Guards Captain

When they're far enough I yell back, "The hell I'm not!", there's no chance they heard me anyway.

I get out of the tree and walk in the opposite direction of Haldane. I have no idea where I'm going, but I hope it's another adventure! After walking for an hour or so, I reach a bay. I guess this is a good place to rest for now. I sit down and take out my bread to eat, I'm halfway done with it when I see something in the distance. I narrow my eyebrows trying to get a better look. I make it out as another kingdom, but I'm not so sure. I get excited and put the rest of the bread back in my satchel. Whatever it is, I want to find out! But I have no idea how to get there. I can't swim there... because... well... I can't swim... I never learned, Okay! I examine the area for something to use. I find some tree bark , so I try to make a raft using sap as glue. After working on it for a long time... VIOLLA! I have...

A sticky piece of tree bark.

"Oh, whatever!" I exclaim, I'm way too impatient to make anything better! I put some sand on top of it, so it's not too sticky, and then grab another piece of bark to use as my ladle. Okay, here we go! I sit down on the wood, which isn't worthy of being called a raft, and prepare to kick off into the water. Three. Two. One. And I'm off! "Hahaha! Mysterious kingdom in the distance, here I come!" and then I'm sinking.


"Is it alive, Red?"

"I don't know."

"Poke it!"

I feel something poke my foot, so I open my eyes to see what it is.

"Oh! Chuck! Chuck! He be wakin' up!"

I see two men standing over me. They both look about 50 years old, but other than that, they look like complete opposites. The first one is small and thin, he's got a black beard that goes up to the middle of his neck. It looks like he's got a bad eye, because it's almost completely closed. The next one is tall and fat, and he's got a small well trimmed moustache. "Who are you? Where am I?" I ask just a little bit scared.

"Mornin' stranger! I'm Chuck! And this here is Red! We found you floatin' around in the bay a few minutes ago!" says the thin one in sort of a weird country accent

"Howdy!" say Red in the same accent, just deeper

"Uhhh... Hi. Where am I?" I ask again, confused.

"You're in Corona, stranger! Hmm... What is your name anyway?" says Red

"Flynn. Flynn Rider."

"Well Flynn Rider! The royals got an announcement soon! We better get on up there!" says Chuck

"Oh, I don't think-" I manage say before Red slings me up over his shoulder and runs to wherever this announcement is. I give about twenty demands to be put down when we finally make it to the announcement. When Red finally does set me down, I try to make a break for it, but Chuck puts his arm around my shoulder.

"You're lucky to be here Flynn! People ve' been talkin' bout' this for months!" He says

"That's great!" I say with fake enthusiasm, removing his arm from my shoulder. Next thing I know, trumpets start playing, and the crowd goes nut! I try to leave again but something catches my eye on the balcony. So regal. So elegant. So beautiful! And it's sitting right on top of the princess' head! "Wow..." I say staring at her crown.

"Hehe! I know what you mean Flynn!" says Red, who evidently heard me, "Princess Rapunzel sure is purtty ain't she?" he says blushing.

"Uhh... yeah..." I reply still looking at the crown. There must be about a hundred jewels on that thing! It's amazing. I look a little lower to look at the princess. She's actually kind of cute, but her crown is just... woah.

"Citizens of Corona!" says the king, "Welcome!"

The crowd cheers in response, Red and Chuck are cheering so loud, I think they shook the place.

"As we all know, my little girl, the lovely Princess Rapunzel," The king says smiling at her. The princess beams at him. "will be turning eighteen next week!"

The crowd cheers some more.

"Yes, yes. Eighteen years old! This would mean she'll be eligible for marriage!" He continues. Suddenly the princess' eyebrows crease, "So in honour of the kingdoms, Princess Rapunzel will be wed to the prince of Haldane, Prince Amegendo!"

The crowd goes insane! They love it! But the princess' jaw drops, and she looks furious, but she remembers she's in front of a crowd and composes herself enough to gives a faint smile to the audience. Oops. Looks like someone forgot to tell her she was getting engaged today.

My attention goes back to the crown. That crown could get me the private island I've always wanted! I give a sneaky smile when I make my decision. By later tonight, that crown is mine.


I'm actually very happy with chapter! But suggestions would still be appreaited! Now, what are you still doing here? REVIEW! :D
