"Surprise"
Chapter 6
By Alltangledup95
Eugene traveled on tiredly. He and Maximus had been riding for 2 days now. One more day and they would reach Caseopia. If they continued on at the rate they were going, they may reach Caseopia by nightfall. Eugene missed Rapunzel and worried if she was alright constantly.
"Come on Max, we should be there soon," Eugene says to Max giving him a pat on his back.
Max was doing his best to get to Caseopia as soon as possible. He hated the road to Caseopia because it could be dangerous at times and has been known to harbor thieves. Eugene was concerned about this as well because he was once one of the thieves along this road.
The two companions continued on silently with their senses high on alert. Both Eugene and Maximus could hear faint noises coming from the bushes. They tried to brush it off as simply being cute little bunnies. Both knew however this was not true.

Matthew crouched low in the bushes trying to be as quiet as possible, even though his companions were not being quite as discreet. Matthew was the one that had spotted the rider approaching. Normally he wouldn't bother with the travelers passing through, but this one was definitely different.
Most of the travelers were dirt poor so there was no point in trying to rob them. This rider however wore the royal crest of the kingdom of Corona. The traveler was wearing nice clothes and had a good sized sack so he must have wealth on him.
Matthew however could not shake the feeling that he knew this man from somewhere, but he decided to just brush it off. He smiled seeing as how the rider became nervous at hearing the noises his companions were emitting.
Matthew gives the signal then all of the thieves jump out from the bushes and surround the rider and his horse.
Eugene was expecting that's was how they would attack so he was somewhat prepared. "Well I guess it's time to put on the Flynn Rider charm' Eugene thinks to himself as he tried to assess his current situation. He steadies his fear and mentally tries to brush it to the side. He knows that to these men showing fear is a weakness that he cannot afford if he wants to make it out of here alive.
"Hey guys the name is Flynn, Flynn Rider how's your evening going?"
'That voice the looks, no it can't be,' Matthew thinks to himself.
"Okay pretty boy get off the horse give us the goods and no one gets hurt," one of the thieves says menacingly to Eugene.
"Sorry guys but no can do. I'm on an urgent mission and I really mist be going," Eugene says as he nudges Max forward. The thieves are too quick though and they swing him off the horse and restrain his hands behind his back.
Matthew is now certain who this stranger is. He asks shocked, "Eugene?"
Eugene looks at Matthew and the same look on Matthew's face comes over his features and he asks, "Matthew?"
