Siblings of Corona B2:Life In the Castle

Chapter 18

So sorry, I forgot I was doing this daily now. 😅

"I'm not sure if I need to borrow anything, Rapunzel.  I have the closest fit for a princess as well, if you remember," Cassandra mumbled as Rapunzel dragged her into her room.

"Oh, yeah!  Right..."  Rapunzel's blushed.  "I don't know, I'm just so excited!  This will be your first date Cass!"

"Next week will be my first date, Raps," Cassandra corrected.

"Right!"

Cassandra chuckled.  "Somehow I get the feeling that you are more excited about this date than I am."

"Well-Ahhhh!"  Rapunzel screamed.

"What?" Cassandra hissed.

"My crown!  It's gone!  It's the crown that Eugene and Lance stole that brought us together!  That crown is the very reason we're even out of that tower alive!  It can't be gone!"  Rapunzel gripped her hair, looking frantically.

"Are you sure you left it here?"  Cassandra inquired.

"Positive," Rapunzel nodded.

At that moment, Eugene, Lance and Varian ran in.  "Rapunzel!  Have you seen Angry and Red?"

"Who?"

"Two little girls we've been watching today.  They're theives and the king asked us to try and help them turn from thievery," Eugene explained.

"That's where you were," Rapunzel said.  "I'm sorry, but I haven't seen them, but have you seen my tiara?  It's gone."

"They took it..." Eugene mumbled.  "Where do we look?"

"And all Red left was this flower," Lance sniffed sadly.

"Start by looking near the Western Ridges.  I heard that they only grow there," Cassandra offered.

"So you have been listening to Xavier," Varian smirked.

"More than I care to admit, but now's not the time!  Let's go!"  Cassandra said.

The five were already in the woods searching when Cassandra suddenly grabbed Rapunzel's. "RAPS!  You're grounded, remember?  We have to get you back before you're missed or we're all dead!"

"Oh, no!  I forgot!"  Rapunzel gripped her hair in frustration.  "But the girls..."

"Let the boys find them.  Let's get back-"

Before they could continue, a scream came to their ears.  They gasped.  It was from a little girl, that much was obvious.

"Angry!"  Eugene hissed.  He rushed off with the others following close behind him.  They stopped and hid in the bushes.

"Let go!"  the girl demanded, trying to pull away from the man's grip.

"Weasel?"  Lance whispered.  "But that means..."

"The Baron," Eugene finished.  "The girls are in more trouble than I thought..."

"What do we do?  Last I checked, we were still on his most wanted list," Lance hissed.

"What did you do?"  Cassandra couldn't help but ask.

"Eugene stole the Baron's prized 'Stallion'," Lance answered, but it only earned him him Eugene's elbow in his side.
