I Promise [Jackunzel & Mericcup]

Adventure continues

The sun slowly rose up and gave light to everything in its way. The birds started chirping and the puddles made from the rain last night reflected everything in reached.

Jack was watching the sun rise as he, Rapunzel and Toothless stayed inside the shelter. The morning he was experiencing now felt much better than the mornings he had experienced back when they were still in the tower.

He turned around to look at Rapunzel who slept peacefully like an angel. Her hair was wrapped around her like a blanket and she have fallen asleep on Jack’s laps. Some rays of light hit Rapunzel’s hair which made it glow so bright like when she uses her power. Jack has always loved watching Rapunzel asleep. Everytime she was with him, everytime she smiled, it made him forget about his problems and even made him forget that he was already a winter spirit. She just meant the world to him.

Rapunzel slowly woke up… She rubs her sleepy eyes like she was still a child and realized that she was still lying down on Jack’s laps. Jack taps her nose lightly to wake her up.

“Morning!” Jack said with a smile.

Rapunzel instantly sat down and had a small blush. She looked around in suspicion, which made Toothless bend his head a bit to the side.

“Wait… So, I’m not dreaming,” Rapunzel asked.

“I don’t think so! Does this feel like a dream?” Jack suddenly splashed a bit of water at Rapunzel’s face.

“Jack!” Rapunzel laughed as she pushed Jack and Toothless suddenly played with them.

He suddenly pushed them to a puddle and laughed in a more ‘dragon language’ way.

Jack stood up and flew away all of a sudden. As he returned, he had brought berries and hazelnuts.

“HEEY!”

The three of them looked back and saws Merida and Hiccup approaching. They left their firewood and brought some food, instead. Merida also finally had a bow and Arrows again.

“About time you two came!” Jack teased.

Toothless jumped over Hiccup, causing Hiccup’s basket that was full of fish to spill and scatter. Toothless got away from Hiccup after he realized that there was fish.

“Heheh… Dig in, buddy,” Hiccup said, bringing the food they caught to Rapunzel.

“Wait, do you even eat?” Merida asked Jack.

“Naah… Spirits don’t need to eat. They could eat, but they won’t gain or lose anything… And that also goes for sleeping,” Jack said.

“Where’d you get that, Merida?” Rapunzel asked, pointing to her bow and arrows.

“Oh, I made It myself… from the wood we got last night… We wouldn’t really be able to use it anymore, so I made these,” Merida explained.

“Woow,” Rapunzel was amazed by Merida’s skill. She was incredible.

“By the way, I forgot to ask… Um… Don’t ya ever cut your hair?” Merida pointed.

Rapunzel held her hair and was a bit scared to tell them why. Jack gave her a look that told her that they could be trusted and Rapunzel took a deep breath.

“Well, uh… It’s kind of special… I’m not allowed to cut it,” Rapunzel said.

“Why?” Hiccup said, confused.

“Please, don’t freak out when you see it,” Rapunzel told them.

Merida and Hiccup looked at each other, confused, as Rapunzel stared at Merida’s wounded hands. She suddenly wrapped her hair around Merida’s hands. Merida looked at Hiccup confused; he didn’t know what was going on, either. They were dumbfounded. Rapunzel started singing, and as she sung an unusual song, the roots of her hair suddenly glowed until the tips. Merida’s eyes widened in surprise and Hiccup’s jaw dropped. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing. And when Rapunzel stopped singing, the glow of her hair faded away. Merida unwrapped her hand from Rapunzel’s hair and was shocked to see her hand completely healed.

“What on earth…” Merida was speechless. She didn’t know how to react. She was too amazed… And so was Hiccup.

“D-d-did I just see that right?! I didn’t see that coming!” Hiccup said.

Jack chuckled a bit, “Don’t worry… I had the same reaction as you guys when I first saw that, too!”

After a while of explaining, the group continued on their journey…

“So, where are we going, again?” Hiccup asked, as they were preparing to take off.

“Just follow my league, Dragon tamer,” Jack said, letting Rapunzel hop onto his back.

Merida hopped onto Toothless and was so excited to finally ride him, again.

Rapunzel knew her parents but Jack didn’t tell her that they were the King and Queen… He was saving that for her 18th birthday, which was today. Jack was already planning so many things for her, and it looked like he will be able to do them now for they have finally escaped the tower.

Jack flew so freely that he was like a leaf being blown away by the wind. Rapunzel have always enjoyed flying around with Jack when they were bored.

Merida screamed for joy as Toothless did some loops in the air. Hiccup couldn’t help but also enjoy the journey for he was with his new friends. Toothless breathed out a small fireball out of joy, too. That was far more the best adventure they ever had. Toothless even ate some fish again as they passed by the ocean. Merida lifted her hand to reach for the clouds and Rapunzel leaned on the back of Jack… Which made him smile, but he tried to hide it. Hiccup and Merida have noticed how Rapunzel and Jack looked at each other from the very start… They didn’t see each other as friends, but both of them were too scared to tell each other. Merida also knew to herself that there was something else building inside of her for Hiccup. But, she still wasn’t sure of what she felt, so she kept silent.

After a few hours, they finally had sight on the Kingdom where Rapunzel was born. She jumped for joy and couldn’t stay steady as she saw the town.
