Rapunzel takes a breath and the. let it out. "Okay." She said and Cassandra nods and the guards open the door. Eugene turns to see Rapunzel at the door. "Wow." He said seeing his girlfriend. Rapunzel tried to walk with pride but began tripping over the heels she wore. As she walks, Rapunzel's wig waves.

The princess tried to keep it still. "How embarrassing for her." The Duchess of Quintinia comments to Eugene. "This is going to take forever." The Duchess complained. Then leaves the room.

Rapunzel comes to stand before her parents. "The wearer of this crown is a shining example of the promise that is Corona, an ambassador of goodwill to those visiting from afar and an inspiration to those fortunate enough to live within her borders." Rapunzel turns to face everyone.

Eugene gives a thumbs up to her. As the coronation went on. Cassandra and Valor began to walk in with a Pascal on Cassandra's shoulder. He looks back to see a strange looking guard step in.

"But above all, the chief responsibility of the crown is to keep the people of Corona safe.." the guard puts the axe through the door.  Pascal squeaks pointing behind. Both girls glance behind them. "..from danger, near and far. There are many."

Another strange guard appears. Valor frowns, but only catches a brief glance of them. "This mandate is not to be taken lightly." "Go find Max." Cassandra tells Pascal. Pascal squeaks and runs off as they join the others.

"There will come a day when the walls that surround Corona." Cassandra motions to Eugene look over to the exit. "Are threatened by malfeasance." Looks worried swing the stranger.

"A day.." "ATTENTION, PLEASE!" A voice doomed halting the coronation. Everyone turns to see... "Lady Caine?" Eugene gasp in shock. As Lady Caine  standing there with her band of thugs coming in. As they raced in everyone began screaming and running. Only people not freaking out was Rapunzel's friends and king and queen.

Quickly Lady Caine's thugs rounded up the guest. The king steps forward addressing Lady Caine. "Release my guest immediately!" He demands. "What's the matter, Fred." Lady Caine snarks back at him. "Am I ruining your little girl's perfect day?" She asked him.

"The duchess?" Rapunzel said in shock. "Oh, honey, I am no duchess.." Lady Caine said hand on the hip. "I don't understand." "Of course you don't, Rapunzel. But try to follow along. This is all your fault."  She whispers.

"What!?"

"You see, after your untimely disappearance. Your father locked up every criminal in the kingdom, including a simple petty thief. My father..." Lady Caine explains. "I saw him thrown into a cage and hauled off like some animals, never to be seen again." *sigh* "So, I thought I'd come back and return the favor." She points her sword at them.

Then a horse and jail carriage pulls up. "Load them up boys!" Lady Caine orders her men. The guest began walking into the carriage. "Your turn, Your Majesty." She taunts.

The king didn't move but had Rapunzel and his wife step back. "Oh come now, you didn't think we'd leave our prized big in the pen, did you?" Lady Caine asked him. They grabbed him escorting him to the cage. "Dad?" Rapunzel shouts. "Rapunzel, stay back." He tells her.

"But.."

"..No. There's nothing you can do. As your father and your king, I command you to stay put." The door was then shut in his face.
Eugene takes a step forwards but a sword pointed at him. "Don't be a hero, pretty boy." One of thugs tell him. Valor clenched her fist looks about. Then catches both Eugene, and Cassandra looks over at Rapunzel.

Rapunzel sighs. And the breaths. "Sorry, dad.."  Rapunzel kicks off her shoes and removes the wig. "Rapunzel!" He shouts as she let's down her 70 foot hair.
