Sorry for the long wait! Hopefully this will make it up! ~Merida
Merida's POV
Shaking my head I try to rid the enraging thoughts. Something -or someone- is trying to corrupt me. First distracting thoughts of my past life, and now thoughts about my team that could make me livid in seconds. I'm not sure what's going on, but it's best I keep my distance. Especially from Hiccup, these past few days I guess you could say I started to... feel more for him than I should.
And I will die before telling him that!
"Merida!" a cheerful voice breaks me out of my own distracting thoughts.
Because of the small shock of her voice, my first instinct is to pick up my bow and aim at the possible threat. Punzie shrieks in panic at my sudden hostility, and pulls her pan out to cover her face, like a protective shield.
I sigh when I realize it's only her. "Sorry, Punzie. You scared me is all." I apologize quickly.
"Whatever, just stay out of my way, Merida." she hisses, spitting out my name like it's acid on her tongue. I can feel my temper flare at her words.
"It's okay, I should've known better than to surprise you." I stare at her in shock, and immediately calm down. She offers me a small smile before skipping over to Flynn who was trying to annoy Elsa.
I sit down in shock, my mind just created a negative Punzie. One who isn't happy, and kind to everyone, but one who is just straight out rude.
"It's getting worse." I mutter gravely to myself.
How can I function within this team if anytime I talk to them my mind will imagine them being beyond mean to me? Act like I'm dirt on the ground they walk on? Like I'm not a Guardian, like I'm not an equal? Like I'm not important?
I wrap my arms around myself. How can I be the Guardian of Courage, when I can slowly feel it deteriorating within myself?
Rapunzel's POV
I rejoin the others after my small scare with Merida. She just seems to be getting worse, always a few feet away from the group, and she always seems to be zoning out; which is so unlike her at all.
"Flynn, will you stop already?" Elsa asks, trying not to lose her cool. Pun not intended.
"Eugene." I whine, leaning my head on his shoulder as I look up into his eyes.
He looks down at me before sighing, "Fine." and he stops trying to annoy her. She breathes out in relief, and goes back to making little snow flakes which Toothless eats after she makes them.
"Hey, Punzie. Is Merida okay?" Hiccup suddenly asks.
My smile falters a bit. Which didn't go unnoticed by Hiccup. "Honestly, no. there is seriously something wrong with her. I just can't figure it out. Why'd you ask?"
He blushes a bit. "No reason." he answers quickly; too quickly.
Hiccup and Merida were never the closest out of all of us. But there personalities perfectly even out, not to mention they're the only two people on the team who aren't a couple. Wait? Could it be!?
"You like Merida!" I squeal happily, before covering my mouth with my hands. I don't think I was supposed to shout that, oops.
Everyone gets quiet, and stares at Hiccup, who seems uncomfortable with our attention all on him. "What?" everyone choruses at the same time in shock.
After several moments of silence he cracks. "Yeah I like, Merida."
"W-what?" a voice stutters from behind us.
I'm usually a positive and optimistic person, but not even I can see how this ends well for any of us.
