"I know it's around here somewhere.. Ah! There it is! The Snuggly Duckling!" Flynn pointed at a cosy looking pub with a yellow duck on there entrance sign. It was made completely of wood and nails, and had a welcoming and sunny pathway up to the door.
The building itself was brightly coloured with a purple mossy roof, blue doors and windows, and orangey coloured wood for the frame. It looked like the perfect place to eat.
"Don't worry, very quaint place, perfect for you two", Flynn exclaimed. "Don't want you scaring and giving up on this whole endeavour now, do we?" Y/N didn't trust Flynn's tone of voice, though Rapunzel was buying it, but honestly, Y/N's stomach was so hungry she could eat a horse, so she'd take what she could get.
"Well... I do like ducklings!" Rapunzel said happily.
"Yay!" Replied Flynn, forcing a smile. Y/N rolled her eyes.
Flynn slammed open the pub door, holding Y/N and Rapunzel in one arm to lead them inside.
"Garcon! Your finest table please!" He yelled out to the room. Rapunzel gasped in disgust, and Y/N took a big step back behind Flynn to hide herself. The whole pub was packed full of large, built, gruff looking men. Some with large metal helmets, some with antlers for a hat, some had rats, some had hooks, and some had loads of horrible looking weapons. No one there looked friendly.
Rapunzel quickly armed herself with her frying pan, pointing it right out in front of her and threatening all who she passed with it.
"You smell that? Take a deep breath through the nose," Flynn said, smugly. He was pushing Rapunzel forward through the crowd and yanked Y/N behind him. "Really let that seep in. What are you getting? Cause to me, it's part man-snell and the other part is really bad man-smell", he continued. Every single person they passed scowled horribly towards them, looking like at any moment they would strike and kill them all.
Suddenly, one of the men grabbed Rapunzel's hair, letting it slide through his hands. Rapunzel screamed and ran from him.
"That's a lot of hair", the man said, his voice gruff and deep. Y/N didn't trust any of the people here, and she attempted to quickly yank all of Rapunzel's hair from his hands.
"She's growing it out," Flynn retorted. "Is that blood in your moustache? "Goldie, Embers, look at all the blood in his moustache! Good sir, that's a lot of blood!"
"Flynn this is a whole new low! You're a foul, contemptible, vile, callous, imprudent idiot and I hope you feel very proud of yourself!" Y/N yelled at Flynn, infuriated with him. Flynn didn't understand half the words he was just called so he just brushed it off.
Meanwhile, Rapunzel was standing around, repeatedly turning around and pointing her frying pan at anyone close to her, and she looked petrified beyond anything.
"Hey, you don't look so good, blonide," Flynn said with false concern. "Maybe we should get you home, call it a day. Probably better off, this is a five star joint, after all, and if you can't handle this place, maybe you should be back in your tower". Flynn was slowly leading Rapunzel back out towards the front door of the pub. Y/N was running after them, telling Flynn there was no way that they were going back.
Then the door was slammed shut by the largest man there in the pub. Underneath his hand with which he had slammed the door was a wanted poster of Flynn.
"Is this you?" The colossal man asked aggressively. Flynn went over to the poster and lightly pushed up the man's finger that was covering his nose, and to his dismay, there was a god awful looking nose for the poster, as per usual.
"Uh, now there're just being mean", Flynn sighed.
"Oh it's him alright", the man with a hook said, grabbing Flynn by his shirt, "Greno, go find some guards", he ordered. Greno ran from the pub quickly to find the palace guards. "That reward's gonna buy me a new hook", the hook man said gleefully, until Flynn was yanked from him by a man with a large metal helmet and horns.
"I could use the money", the helmeted man exclaimed.
"What about me? I'm broke!" The largest man said, taking Flynn for himself. All the men started to fight over Flynn, grabbing him, shoving him, pushing him, pulling him. Y/N leaned back against the wall, happily watch this all unfold.
"Now this is what I call Karma", she said, laughing to herself. Rapunzel on the other hand, was attempting desperately to tug back Flynn towards her.
"Ruffians! Stop! Hey! Leave him alone!" She yelled.
"We can work this out! Gentlemen, please!" Flynn pleaded. Rapunzel smacked her frying pan down on the men all around, trying to break through, but she just couldn't do it.
"Y/N! Do something!" She yelled to Y/N.
"Ugh fine! I'll help", Y/N agreed reluctantly. She strolled over to the bundle of ferocious men, got out her flame, threw it up to the beam above the hooked man's head, and burned the wood around the beam, causing it to fall directly on the man's head.
"What can I say except, you're welcome!", she sung as she walked away again. (Yes, Y/N can predict the future disney movies/songs).
"Put him down!" Rapunzel shouted. Everyone turned to face her. "Okay, I don't know where I am, and I need him to take me to see the lanterns because I've been dreaming about them my entire life! Find your humanity! Haven't any of you ever had a dream!"
The hooked man brought out his axe and slowly walked over to Rapunzel. Flynn was placed onto a peg on the side of the wall and hung there from his shirt. The hooked man (who's name was Hook Hand), bent over the top of Rapunzel, before stating:
"I had a dream once". He then threw his axe at one of the men, forcing him to begin playing the accordion (cos why not?).
"I'm malicious mean and scary. My smirk could curdle dairy, and violence wise my hands are not the cleanest". Hook hand sang.
Flynn had a look of upmost confusion on his face, and Y/N face palmed, before walking over and standing next to Flynn. "Does everyone in this world just... sing when they feel like it?" She asked.
"Yup. Seems that way. And no one but you and I appear to question it", Flynn responded.
"But despite my evil look, and my temper and my hook... i've always yearned to be a concert pianist!" A spotlight came down on Hook Hand, and he began to play the piano amazingly!
"Can't you see me on the stage performing Mozart! Tickling the ivories till they gleam! Yep I'd rather be called deadly, for my killer show tune medley! Cause way down deep inside I've got a dream!" The ruffians around starting to bop up and down to the music. They all then began to sing about their different dreams! Y/N and Flynn were now beyond confused, until Flynn was thrust onto the stage and forced to sing about his dream.
"I have dreams like you. No, really! Just much less touchy-feely! They mainly happen somewhere warm and sunny. On an island that I own, tanned, and rested, and alone". He was grabbed by his limbs by all the men around.
"Surrounded by enormous piles of money!"
"I've got a dream! I've got a dream! I just wanna see the floating lanterns gleam! And with every passing hour i'm so glad I left my tower! Like all you lovely folks, I gotta dream!" Rapunzel sang sweetly. She looked towards Y/N, as though pleading her to sing too.
"I don't sing", she mouthed back, grinning.
*timeskip to end of song*
"Yes way down deep inside I've got a dream! Yeah!"
(Thanks for reading! A little while ago someone asked to send me fan art, but I have no clue what I need to do in order to allow people to send it to me, so if u have any, either send it to me on private message on Wattpad, or maybe u guys have some suggestions as to how I can receive some. Of course, any fan art I get I will put up on this story to show everyone!)
