Rapunzel's P.O.V.

Jack stood at the bottom of the tower waiting for me. I walked up to the window, put my hair on the hook, and held on tight. I paused. Pascal tied a bit of hair around his waist. I smiled. He gave me a thumbs up.

"You comin' Punzie?"

"Here I go." I whispered.

I looked back, one last time and jumped. It was thrilling! I screamed with joy. I stopped just before I touched the bottom. I slowly put down my foot and touched the bright green grass. It was so soft. I brought my other foot down and laid down on the ground. It was amazing! I ran over to a pond and stood till my ankles touched the water. The wind started to blow. The weed you make wishes with, started to blow all over the place! I ran as fast as I could out of the grove. I looked around and threw my hands in the air!

"This is the first time in forever, I'm completely free!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.

Jack followed behind me. He laughed. "How is it? The world?"

"It's even better than I ever imagined!"

"You haven't seen nothin' yet." He said with a grin. And together we walked away from the place I have been for 18 years.

"Whats that!?" I asked as a bush shook. "Thugs? Thieves?"

I pointed my frying pan I brought to protect myself with at the bush. I jumped up on Jack's back because I kinda freaked out... I haven't been outside in eighteen years ok? Don't judge!

And then, a cute fluffy bunny jumped out.

"Be careful. That cute little thug there can smell fear." Jack teased.

"Sorry. Just a little bit jumpy I guess." I got down off of Jack and shrugged.

We walked around for what seemed like 20 minutes. Then Jack started to get hesitant.

There was a fork in the path. Left or right.

Jack was about to go left then stopped. He turned to the right. He looked down each road.

"Jack?"

"Yeah." He said looking at the left.

"Are we lost?"

"No!" He glanced back at me. "Of course not!"

"Then, which way?" I asked, not believing.

"Uhh... Right. No left...ummm right?"

"We're lost."

"We're lost" he admitted.
