Big Change

"Emma, there's a letter for you." The nurse said and gave the letter to Emma.

"Thank you…" Emma replied and the nurse was exited.

Emma looked down on her mother who was sleeping on the side of her bed. She decided not to wake her up and read the letter silently.

A smile appeared on her face as she read every word on the letter. She missed him a lot.

Suddenly, her mom woke up.

"What's that?" Her mom asked.

"A letter from Jack." Emma answered as she hugged the letter.

Her mom just smiled back at her.

"By the way mom, when can we leave this place?" Emma asked.

Then suddenly the smile on her mom's face vanished.

"Just wait a few more days Emma…" Her mom replied as she remembered Jack marrying someone else.

Emma just nodded and read Jack's letter all over again.

"I love you too, Jack. I miss you so much." Emma whispered to herself.


Time 12:00 A.M.

"Happy birthday to me…" Rapunzel whispered to herself as she leaned on her bed and made a big sigh.

Then suddenly a stone hit the window of Rapunzel's room. The glass broke into pieces and it shocked her.

She ran to the window and tried to search from the dark where the stone came from.

And she saw the person that she was longing for… Eugene.

She slowly opened the window as it made a soft screeching sound. Then she jumped from the window, knowing that he'll catch him. And he definitely did.

They hugged each other tight. It's been weeks since they made contact like this.

"Happy 18th birthday Rapunzel…" Eugene whispered to her.

His voice made a big relief on her heart.

"Thank you, Eugene. I miss you." Rapunzel said.

"Are you still doing it?" Eugene asked as his eyebrows furrowed.

"Yes…" Rapunzel said and looked away.

"I see…" Eugene whispered as a pout formed on his face.

"Well, I have to go… I guess I'll see you later at your school then…" Eugene continued and made a weak smile.

"Really? Okay…" Rapunzel said and watched the firm body of Eugene walk away.

She felt so sad for the both of them…

She turned away and tried to ease the pain inside her.


Next day…

Eugene was about to enter the school but suddenly he saw Gothel walking on the sidewalk having an argument over the phone…

Eugene secretly stalked her.

"I don't want to do it anymore!" Gothel shouted over the phone.

"You can't escape Gothel. We started it and we end it!"

"What do you mean?"

"It's over for that girl…"

"What? Are you insane! What have you done!"

"Relax Gothel… It's gonna be smooth. Don't worry. Now if you don't want to get in trouble, follow what I say."

"Fine. I'm coming."

Eugene observed her. She acted so peculiar. So suspicious.


After a half hour of walking, Gothel arrived to her destination. She landed on an old abandoned house in the middle of a very dark forest. Without thinking twice, she swiftly went inside with heavy steps.

Eugene who was spying like an idiot behind the big tree found the house very weird. It's like a haunted house or something. It was surrounded by withered flowers and trees filled with cobwebs.

He read a sign beside the house saying Wrathwood.

It was so scary that he can't even step a foot near it. Yet he felt like he had to. His instincts tell him that something fishy is going on.

He went around it and peaked on the window to see and hear their conversation.

"Aahh… Gothel! Finally arrived! Good good…" A very cunning looking man said as he sat on a sofa very comfortably.

His was tall and his skin was blue-grey. His irises were red and his sclera was yellow. He wore a bat skin cape around his neck and shoulders.

"Why don't you have a seat?" He continued.

"You look like a complete lunatic. This place is a mess." Gothel said and rolled her eyes.

"And you're still not used to it…" He said foolishly.

"What do you want Mandrake?" Gothel asked.

"Is that Rapunzel of yours still here in the city?" Mandrake asked.

"Why, yes of course." Gothel replied.

"Well you have to get rid of her. Make sure she's already out of sight." He said.

"What do you mean? Like us getting violent?" Gothel asked confusingly.

"Yes. I want to revenge for my son. Her parents threw him on prison!" He shouted.

"Because he is a thief! It was his fault why! And we're not going to kill her! Don't you have a shred of humanity!" Gothel shouted back.

"Well you know… you're a thief too, aren't you?" He said and smirked.

"I know. And I'm trying to get rid of her by letting her marry someone else and leave her immediately." Gothel stated.

"You can't escape from her." He said as he stretched his body and twisted his head.

"What do you mean?" Gothel asked.

"It has been rumored that his majesty and all of his subjects are already searching this city for her. They're everywhere. You can't escape through them." He said.

"They're just rumors." Gothel laughed and rolled her eyes.

"Well let's see if you could still laugh if they found out that it was you who kidnapped her." He said.

"Then I'll tell them that it was you who commanded me to do it! Then you'll get in jail too!" Gothel shouted.

"If they find me… Don't be so sure Gothel…" He smirked.

"How dare you!" Gothel shouted angrily and left the house.

Eugene was shocked with everything he just heard.

Were they talking about Rapunzel? Revenge? Thief? Kidnapped? His majesty?

Questions ran through his mind. He was so confused.

He ran away from the forest when suddenly he collided with someone else.

It was a tall man who was dressed up like a loyal guard. He had brown hair and brown eyes. He looked so familiar.

He helped Eugene stand up. "Are you okay? I'm so sorry."

"Nope. I'm fi-" Eugene's eyes grew bigger. "Nod?"

"Flynn! Dude how's it going?" He said and punched Eugene's shoulders.

"So cool. Man, I haven't seen you in a while." Eugene said.

"Yeah. I've been busy… Y'know, looking for the lost princess." He replied.

"Lost princess?" Eugene asked.

"Yeah. Her name is Princess Rapunzel I believe." Nod answered.

Eugene's eyes grew larger. "Ra- rapunzel?"

To be continued…
