Ok, first actual chapter put up twice. Huh, that's a first. =) So I want to suggest UnknownBlackHand's story ROTBTFD Forbidden Friendships. UnknownBlackHand is a good friend of mine, and we are something like co-writers. This story is for UnknownBlackHand, and I hope Unknown likes it.

Rapunzel woke up with a pounding headache, and she groaned, sitting up and pressing her hand to her forehead. The pounding ceased. Rapunzel didn't wonder at this too much because of her healing powers, then she wandered downstairs, making breakfast quickly. Her mother was coming home that night, and Rapunzel wanted to get the tower sparkling clean.

She got the tower cleaned up in due time, taking a bit longer than normal as she was being extra careful and had finished the last coat of paint on the walls that day. It was dark by the time she finished, and she was tired. It was taking Gothel a while to get to the tower, and Rapunzel knew Gothel would be upset if she stayed up late, so she went to bed, falling asleep soon.

Her light sleep didn't last long when she heard something scratching on the side of the tower, and she ran to the window, thinking it was Gothel, opening the window. She couldn't see in the dark, so she sang her song quietly, and the glow illuminated the tower enough to see a hooded figure, not Gothel, climbing up the tower. Rapunzel gasped in fear and darted into the kitchen, grabbing around for anything that would make a formidable weapon. She grabbed a frying pan, and a dagger, then rushed back into the main room, still singing. She saw the thing standing near the window, not making any move to attack her or anything.

"Hello." It said in what Rapunzel thought to be a friendly tone. Rapunzel didn't let her guard down however.

"What do you want here?" She demanded, and it replied,

"I want to help you." Rapunzel lowered her weapons slightly.

"H-Help me?" Mother had told her many things but never that anyone would want to help her.

"Yes." The thing, Rapunzel still wasn't sure what it was, stood and took a step closer. (She was still muttering the lyrics to her song so her hair stayed alight.)

"Don't come any closer!" Rapunzel shouted, and the thing stopped, raising it's hands.

"Alright, alright. I am a vampire, by name Mal, and I am sent by Dialga, the lord of all vampires. He has heard of you, and knows your mother. She is a terrible woman, is she not?"

"No! My mother loves me with all her heart."

"Hm." The vampire, Mal, looked doubtful and ran a finger along the wall. This raised a chill inside Rapunzel, for whatever reason she knew not.

"Has she not told you of your rightful heritage?" Rapunzel was startled.

"Wh-what rightful heritage?"

"You have vampire in you." Rapunzel took an astonished step backwards.

"What?"

"Or, at least you will have vampire in you."

"What are you talking about?!" Rapunzel was getting irritated by this vampire's riddles.

"Let me turn you into a vampire, and you can be free. You can kill your mother and be free of her meddling ways, her rules, her strict forbiddence of the outside world. Have you never hunted under the moon, felt the bloodlust pulsing through your veins?" Rapunzel slowly shook her head. The freedom sounded enticing.

"Then you haven't lived. Let me help you, and you can live forever." The vampire took a few steps closer, but Rapunzel hardly noticed.

"Feel the grass under my feet..." Rapunzel murmured.

"Cold from dew and lit by the cold moon." The vampire whispered, now close enough to touch her. Her hair was no longer glowing, the only light in the cold room a sliver of moonlight.

"Be free from mother's rules forever..." She whispered, and the vampire slid his hands down her waist, touching her sensually. My, what a lovely little thing she is. How delicious she would be, I must taste her blood... Mal thought to himself, before answering,

"And free from all restraints of life." Rapunzel, innocent and pure, wondered hazily what was happening to her from the strange touches. The vampire slid his hands up to her chest and brushed his cold fingers against her flesh, causing Rapunzel to gasp and jerk away.

"No! Leave me alone! I love my mother! She loves me! Get out of here!" Her hair started glowing and Mal hissed in anger. Things were not going well to his plans. He had to taste her flesh before he left.

"Not until you let me turn you!" He growled. Rapunzel shook her head.

"No! Never!" Rapunzel shrieked, backing further away, until she backed into a wall. Mal seized his chance and blurred over, pinning her against the wall. He bit down into her shoulder, sucking in heated blood. Rapunzel screamed in agony. Mal was enjoying this, until Rapunzel slammed a knife into his chest, yanking out his cold dead heart. Mal cowered away, feeling the pain in his chest. He looked up and into her eyes, hoping to see mercy. He saw anger and cold hard hatred. The heat pulsating from her hand burned into his heart and killed him. He groaned, then died. Rapunzel let the grains of his heart fall through her fingers, then looked at her shoulder. It was bleeding badly, and burned cold. Rapunzel winced and touched it with her hair, healing it. She staggered into her room, fell onto her bed and into a deep sleep.

Sorry about the sensuality, but I am getting sick and tired of people thinking I'm a wimpy little baby who doesn't know how sex works. Literally, my brother thought I wouldn't know how it worked!

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed it, and I will be trying to post daily to keep UnknownBlackHand happy! Please review!
