Summary: After a year on the road, Arianna returns home.

Author's Note: ONE. MORE. CHAPTER!!!

The caravan stops at the palace. I walk towards the door of the caravan. I get out. Rapunzel stands on the palace deck.

"RAPUNZEL!" I cry as I run towards her.

"MOM!" She cries as she runs towards me. We hug. "Oh, I missed you! I missed you!". She spins me. She kisses my face several times. "Did you have fun on your trip?". I nod.

I am in a blue room with a white bed in the middle. I look in the mirror on the white vanity. I am a young European brunette woman with hair in an updo, green eyes, pink lipstick wearing a golden dress with white columns with Sundrops at the top of the columns, a Sundrop flower crown, lei, and flower bracelet. I smile at myself.

"Is this life after happily ever after?

Is this who I have always been meant tobe?

Ican tell now,I'm different somehow

Than what I wasbefore"

I touch my reflection.

"And maybe at last, this is really me"

I smile.

Rapunzel comes in holding a journal with a leather cover and strap.

"Hey, dear, I found your journal in the caravan." She tells me. She hands me it.

"Thank you!" I reply.

"You're welcome.".

She leaves.

"After all that I've done,"

I open my journal to a picture of a young woman with glowing yellow and blue hair, eyes, and slightly pale skin wearing a yellow and blue Sundrop crown, a yellow dress with blue columns with Sundrops at the top, a yellow and blue Sundrop lei, a bracelet, and yellow shoes with a black background.

"I've seen"

I flip in my journal to a picture of a young woman with hair in an updo, tan skin, green eyes, pink lipstick wearing a white pearl necklace with three pink jewels in the middle, a purple and white renaissance dress with slanted columns and purple slippers, and a purple belt with a pink outlined-heart buckle walking with Gothel in a forest with green grass.

"and been through"

I flip in my journal to a picture of Zan Tiri yelling at a young woman with glowing yellow and blue hair, eyes, and slightly pale skin wearing a yellow and blue Sundrop crown, a yellow dress with blue columns with Sundrops at the top, a yellow and blue Sundrop lei, a bracelet, and yellow shoes in a gold rock tower.

"After all of the choices, both right and wrong"

I flip in my journal to a picture of me grabbing the Moonstone, a blue opal.

"Through the doubts,"

I flip in my journal to a picture of a young woman with glowing blue and yellow hair, eyes, and slightly pale skin wearing a blue and yellow Sundrop crown, a blue dress with yellow columns with Sundrops at the top, a blue and yellow Sundrop lei, a bracelet, and blue shoes having a seizure in the forest.

"fears,"

I flip in my journal to a picture of gold rocks.

"the joys"

I flip in my journal to a picture of me swimming with the whale shark.

"and the tears"

I flip in my journal to a picture of a young woman with glowing blue and yellow hair, eyes, and slightly pale skin wearing a blue and yellow Sundrop crown, a blue dress with yellow columns with Sundrops at the top, a blue and yellow Sundrop lei, a bracelet, and blue shoes curled up in the tower crying.

"All that and so much more"

I flip in my journal to a picture of a young woman with hair in an updo, tan skin, green eyes, pink lipstick wearing a white pearl necklace with three pink jewels in the middle, a purple and white renaissance dress with slanted columns and purple slippers, and a purple belt with a pink outlined-heart buckle spinning under a rainbow on a grassy green hill.

"I've somehow come back to where I belonged"

I run out of my room.

"And now there's no boundaries, no limits, no bars"

I cartwheel.

"Now there's no tower, no wall"

I spin.

"Now life's wide open from here to the stars"

I leap.

"And I'm happily ever after, after all"

I go outside.

A young man with brown hair and eyes, a goatee, and tan skin wearing a white shirt, a purple shirt with yellow lining and a sun patch on the shoulder and brown pants and boots, Eugene, stands besides Rapunzel. A young woman with short, black, curly hair, pale skin, gray eyes, and red lips wearing a red dress with yellow lining and a sun patch on the shoulder, Cassandra stands beside Eugene. a boy with tan skin, freckles, black hair with a blue streak in it, wearing brown goggles in it, blue eyes, and an aquamarine shirt, brown shoulder pads, brown, baggy pants, and a brown buckle, Varian, a man with brown eyes, black skin wearing a red shirt, gold hoop earrings, black pants, and boots, Lance, a girl with tan skin, brown curly hair, green eyes, pink lips, wearing an aquamarine dress in a brown, wooden wheelchair, Natalia, a girl with tan skin, blue eyes, and black hair wearing a yellow dress, Sara, a girl with tan skin, freckles, red hair in long ponytails, green eyes, wearing a pink dress, Catalina, and her sister, Kiera, who had tan skin, freckles, red streaks running down her face, short black hair, green eyes, and a black shirt, yellow pants, and a

boy with tan skin, brown eyes, and black hair wearing a white suit and pants with a green shirt underneath, Matthew, Frederic, Gabriella, and Demanitus are outside.

"Somehow at last, we were all truly home"

I sing.

"Living happily ever after"

Frederic sings.

"Living happily ever after"

Rapunzel and Eugene sing.

"Living happily ever after

After all"

Everybody sings.


Rapunzel and I are on the grass. Glowing yellow lanterns fill the night sky. We hug. I don't know what is going to happen next, but I know I'm going to be okay.

AND THEY ALL LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER


Author's Note: We made it, we're at the end! As you know, I started this series with only about a 50% intention of finishing this. But, what do you know? We made it! I'm going to make a few songfics, a few more drawings, and an art slideshow. I have one more story that I am going to write before I stop writing fanfiction. Thank you so much for reading!
