Merida walked forward slowly; dragging her horse along behind her. "This is beautiful.." she said, gazing at the tower. She walked around it and realized there were no stairs, no doors, nothing. "Hm.." She thought touching the wall and pulling out two arrows. She centered herself below the window and stuck the arrows in-between the bricks. "Stay here Angus." She said, scrambling up the huge wall. After a few minutes she reached the top; climbing into the window, she strolled around. "Nice place--" She started to say but stopped when she heard singing. Thinking quickly she hid behind a curtain next to a fireplace.

"La dada...da da da..da..daa daaaa..." A girl with long golden hair twirled and danced down the stairs into the kitchen.

'She's.. Stunning..' Merida thought, tugging her hair and peaking through a split between the curtain and the wall, "But that's a lot of hair." she spoke out loud and then covered her mouth.

"Who's there!?" The girl spun around with a hot pie in her hands. "It's no use hiding.. I know there's someone there!"

"Uh.. Yeah.." Merida stepped out from behind her hiding place and raised her hands in surrender. "I didn't mean to scare you.. I was just running and my horse turned here, so i thought I'd see if anyone was home." She replied. "I didn't mean to barge in."

"What is your name?" The petite chef said, ambling in a small circle.

"Merida, and yours?" She said, resting her arms.

"...Rapunzel." She said looking at her suspiciously. "Why.. are you here exactly. I mean, what do you want from me?"

"Oh, well. I was hoping maybe you could let me sleep here. At least for the night, I can pay you." Merida said slightly blushing.

Rapunzel sat in her chair. "You're not here to.. steal my hair are you?" She said, blowing on her pie.

"What? Why would i do that?" Merida looked at her puzzled.

"Well, mother always said that people wanted to steal my hair because it was magical."

"I don't want your hair. Just some food and a bed." She said, sitting on the floor.

Rapunzel waited for a few moments and spoke "Hmm... Okay, but you even think about touching my hair and i will throw you out the window." She stood and went to the kitchen to cut the pie.

Merida shook her head and walked over to the table to eat. "Ooh yah cun'! This is fantastic!" She said, shoveling the pastry in her cheeks.

"Thank you." Rapunzel giggled and took a bite.
