Merida rode to a nearby town. There were few windows lit and she hoped that there were still some stores open. A bell rang as she walked through the door to a fabric and ornament store. "Oh, hello there. I was just about to close up." A small woman said, walking through a curtain from the back room.
"Er, well i kinda needed to buy some fabric real fast. It's very important." Merida pleaded.
The woman looked at her for a moment and replied, "Oh all right, do you need any help?"
"Uh i guess it couldn't hurt. I need to make a dress for someone. She's a wee bit taller than i am and she has a smaller waist than i do." Merida explained.
"Okay, well pick out your fabrics and come to the back room, i have mannequins." She said walking away. Merida looked around for a few minutes, every now and then she'd pick up something and put it back thinking it wasn't good enough. She eventually grabbed a light blue and a dark blue bolt of silk, and then a gold one, and a small box of gold star ornaments. She walked into the back room, "Alright! I'm done." she said plopping everything onto the table.
"Oh my." The woman said, putting on her glasses. Merida scrawled a design onto a sheet of parchment.
"This is how I want to make it look!" She said, excitedly. The woman looked at it closely, and then back at Merida.
"This is going to take a while, you know that right?" She said pulling out thread and needles.
"Yes, i know. But it has to be perfect." Merida said determined.
After hours of sewing the dress was complete. The woman wrapped it in thin paper and handed it to the electrified red head. Merida payed her and ran out the door yelling 'Thank you' as she leaped onto Angus's back. She place the dress into her side-sack and rode off into the forest. As Merida galloped through the forest the sun began to rise. "Oh no! Hurry Angus!" Merida shouted, hoping Rapunzel wouldn't wake up before she got back. She rode through the opening and hopped off of her horse, sliding her bag on and then hurriedly climbed the tower. "Rapunzel! I have a surprise!" Merida called, setting the bag down and climbing the stairs.
"Rapunzel?" She checked everywhere around the tower, but she couldn't find her anywhere. 'Where could she've gone?' She thought, propelling down the tower. Merida looked around outside, 'Maybe she went for a swim and got stuck again!' She thought and pulled off her dress. She jumped into the water and swam around, but she couldn't see her anywhere. She scrambled out of the water and ran to Angus. "I can't find Rapunzel!" she yelled and jumped onto Angus, "We've got to search everywhere!" She said as they sped off.
They combed through every nearby town and the snuggly duckling, and after settling the dispute from earlier the bar patrons agreed to help search. They moved on to the forest. The hook handed guy handed everyone a horn, "If you find her blow your horn and we'll all meet up back here." He said and they split into search teams. Merida went alone and after riding for what seemed like hours Angus stopped and lied down, out of breath.
Merida sat against a tree, "Oh Rapunzel! Where are you?" she worried. The sun was starting to set and Merida was frustrated. "We're not going anywhere till we find her." She said to Angus and started to build a fire. She grabbed an arrow from her quiver and walked over to a nearby stream. She jabbed it into the river a few times, catching three fish. Angus looked at her, "What?" She said, holding them over the fire, "Not eating isn't going to find her!"Angus looked hurt, 'humphed' and turned around. "Look, I'm sorry I barked at ya, I'm just really concerned." She said petting his mane.
