Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons

Home Sweet Tower

Everyone was tumbling around like a toddle with a doll inside the portal. A mixture of colours keeps everyone's heads spinning. Some thought they would fall to no end, until a big flash of light was shone in the end. It captures the group and forces them to fly forward. When the light faded away, they felt like they're being spit out of a mouth, and onto a hard floor.

Jack was the first one to groan as he looked back. He saw the portal shut tight and saw a closet from where the portal used to be. He looked around to see everyone else on the floor, feeling sick to their stomachs.

"That was not a pleasant experience." Hiccup groaned from the floor.

"You could say that again." Rapunzel replied as she tries to stand.

"You would think Mother Nature could've come up with a smoother ride." Hiccup complains as he has a hard time to get on his knees.

"I think it's one of those, 'don't look at a gift horse in the mouth.'" Jack jokes as he got to his feet with help of his staff.

Merida moved her hair out of her face to look at Jack, angry and confused. "What is that supposed to mean?!"

Jack sighs with aggression, not really wanting to explain that saying. "Never mind!" He instead carefully walks to Rapunzel, and helped her to her feet.

"Thanks." She said looking at him, still feeling a little sick.

It took a while for Merida and Hiccup to get on their feet, but they managed to do it. When they feel like their head's stopped spinning, they got a good look in the room they're in. It was a dark room, but cracks of sunlight helped to pick out a few things. Like a closet, a kitchen area, a stairway leading upstairs, a mannequin, and a mirror in the corner.

"This is where you live?" Merida asks out loud.

"Yep." Rapunzel answers. "Home sweet home."

Looking around, Merida wasn't too impressed. But Hiccup tries to make the best of the space. "Looks nice and cozy." He said with a nervous smile. He then saw the window behind him. It was shut tight. He made his way to get them open, to get a better view of the room.

"Wait," Rapunzel said almost scared. "What are you doing?"

"Just getting some more liiiigggghhhttt..." He said as he opens the window and looks down. He could see the ground that was about 20 feet away from where he was. "Whoa." He said a little uneasy.

"What?" Merida said as she makes her way to the window to see what he sees.

"We are up pretty high." He said trying to take the scenery in. Merida almost pushed him out of the way for her to see. This height was something she wasn't expecting either, or the beautiful landscape underneath.

"Oh Kay." She said slowly backing away from the window. "I didn't see that coming." She then turns to Rapunzel, "why are we up so high?" She asks.

Rapunzel quickly made her way to the window and shut it tight. "Well," she said trying to think of an excuse. She really didn't want to tell her new companions of her hair. What if they try to take it, and leave her alone and miserable? She can't take that chance. "How else are you able to get a great view?" She laughed nervously, hoping they buy it.

In truth, no one did. But as Merida wants to press more on the matter, Jack steps in front of her. "Does it really matter?" He said. "We're here now, so let's try to find the stone."

"Great idea." Rapunzel said trying to push the question asking out of their heads. She grabs a lock of her hair and used it as a whip to catch a hook. She pulled it down, opening a hatch. It let a huge ray of sun light up the entire room. Everyone can now see the pictures that Rapunzel had painted on the walls for so many years.
