Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons

Chapter 13

Rapunzel's POV

I scream straight out in fear seeing Jack being tackled down. I fall to my knees, crying in my lap. Merida sit down beside me holding my shaking shoulders, trying to comfort me but I can hear her voice cracks and her tears falling. Hiccup is standing a bit away from us standing frozen and staring out in nowhere before he screams out in clear anguish and blasts down the remaining black horses with a strange earth blast. I can't stop my tears. Jack was... He is... I couldn't even think about it. That's when I feel a hand on my chin. I scream out falling backwards when I see it ain't Merida or Hiccup. About three feet over the ground is Jack, flying over me. He lands close on the ground and stumbles.

"Jack!" I cry out hardly embracing him as I feel him wipe away my tears.

"Hey, take it easy. I'm okay." He says calmly. I just kiss him on the lips not letting go neither looking up. I hear Jack silently laugh at Merida smirking: "Oh, you do care."

"Oh shout up Frost! But what in the name of earth happened there!" She says, her voice slightly revealing her previous cries. Jack smileys stupidly. "Well, it actually turns out: I can fly!" Merida looks up at him in disbelief. "Waw, that is SO unfair!" She groans.

I just feel so relieved he's okay I feel like I'm about to cry again. I feel Jack brush his hand against my (now freakishly long) hair. I can see how Jack puts on his calm face again but I see through it. He once told me a story about him being tramped over by a big horse crossing the road and after that he's been terrified about them. I hear Merida laugh a bit before walking over to Hiccup.

"You okay, lad?" She asks him and puts a hand on his shoulder.

"Y-yeah..." He answers looking of into the forrest with wide eyes. "But we should probably keep going now." He says and breaks the gaze, looking down with a bit of a sick expression. I saw how Meridas eyes turned worriedly and she doesn't remove her hand of Hiccup's shoulder.

"Right let's go before Pitch sends something more to us."

It was late and we all sat around one of Meridas fires and grilled fish against. It had just darkened and the shadows play all over our faces.

I turn towards Jack. He had just telled us every detail how he suddenly one feet from the ground bounced up. He still seems a bit shaken up from the black nightmare horses, and the same with Merida: She had been a bit scared all the way from the bear attack but her eyes turned even more so after Hiccup had begin acting wierd, looking at the woods all the time like he is seeing something nobody else can see. I realise I must look pretty conserned myself after first Merida and then Jack almost being killed. I get ripped out of my thoughts hearing something calling me.

"Man in Moon." Whispers Jack and I realise they hear it to.

"The Big four. I have come to warm you!" A dull voice says in a whisper but still in a loud voice. I feel how I wince.

"Pitch knows every single steps you take and he is getting furious. He sends his nightmares after you trying to take you out one by one becouse he knows everyone is needed to stop him. He has putted a curse on one of you, seeing everything that person see so he can hear your plans."

"On who?!" Merida interupts.

"I do not know. But you can not let him know your positions our else he will continue to send out your fears in form of nightmares after you without you being able to touch the Buggyman."

"What do you mean 'our fears'?" Asks Hiccup in a shaky voice, his eyes once again travelling to the woods.
"That's what Pitch Black does. He transforms the nightmares into what their victims are afraid of." Answers the Moon. Hiccup looks like he's about to faint and I feel like it to. Pitch has sent out the fears of Jack and Merida... What will he do towards me? I feel Jack grasp my hand and I hold his back tightly. That's when another thought hit me. Pitch was spying on us through one of us and... I had a 'blocked power' according to Tooth and my hair is accting really weird.
