Elizabeth's POV:

It started out like any normal day.

Minus the weird red rocks popping up.

I was walking through town when i heard a familiar voice.

"Ruddiger!? Ru-Ruddiger where are you?"

I turned around the corner to see Varian.

"Hi Varian" i said.

"Oh! Hey Ellie, hey, you haven't seen Ruddiger anywhere have you?" He asked.

"No sorry, but it'd be happy to help you look" i said.

He smiled before going back to looking for Ruddiger.

He kept calling his name.

Suddenly Varian grabbed my arm and pulled me into an ally.

"Where are we going!?" I asked.

"I saw something!" He answered.

Suddenly we bumped into some village people.

"Oh, uh, sorry, hi!" Varian said.

"Don't you have a kingdom to overthrow or something!?" One of the villagers asked.

I glared at him and balled my hands into fists.

"Oh..uh...yeah, hey you haven't seen a raccoon around have you?" Varian asked them.

They ignored him.

"We'll just keep looking, comon" i said pulling Varian away.

I hated how all the village people were treating him.

"Ruddiger!" We kept calling out.

We weren't having much luck until I turned around and saw him.

I tapped Varian's shoulder to get his attention.

He turned around and i guess he noticed too.

He ran over to where Ruddiger was.

"Hey buddy! I was looking for ya, hello?"

Ruddiger wasn't moving and he was all red.

Varian waved his hand infront of his face.

"W-what's wrong?"

He picked him up.

"Huh..."

"What happened?" I asked.

"I'm not sure...i think it has something to do with these rocks" Varian said.

"Maybe Rapunzel will know what's going on." I suggested.

"Maybe"

So we went to look for Rapunzel.

The entire town seemed to be going crazy now.

We eventually found Rapunzel and Eugene who were startled when they noticed us.

"Hi, sorry, just us" Varian said placing Ruddiger down on a barrel.

"What happened to Ruddiger?" Rapunzel asked.

"We're not sure" i said.

"But we think it has something to do with these new rocks, i mean i've only been able to study them for a couple of hours but their effects appear to be...extremely dangerous" Varian explained.

"More dangerous than bringing people's worst fears to life?!" Eugene asked, messing with his hair.

"Yes well, if people remain under that fear spell for to long it looks like they'll become frozen...in terror....permenently!" Varian said.
