"Flynn definitely doesn't know how to offer. What a silly boy!" Flynn was leading Rapunzel into a bar with sketchy men who looked scary.

 Rapunzel squealed and used her frying pan as a weapon. I think Mother was right. There are ruffians and thugs here. She thought. 

Rapunzel managed to make them talk and sing about their dreams. They have a soft spot for something after all!

Suddenly, The Slave saw something walking in the distance. It was Gothel! 

Gothel secretly looked at the window, seeing Rapunzel singing with the ruffians. Gothel heard stomping, so she hid. It was the palace guards.

The door burst open, the guards entering.

They questioned where Flynn was, and the ruffians managed to hide him and lead them to a secret path.

Rapunzel ventured into the tunnel, as Flynn took a torch.

"So, Flynn. Where are you from?" Rapunzel questioned.

"Here we go again with the lovey thingy." The Slave sighed.

"If you want to see the lights so badly, why haven't you gone before?" 

"Uh, well.." A tiny piece of rock fell on Rapunzel's head, and as the place started to shake. The guards were catching up with them!

"Rider!" A guard yelled.

Rapunzel carried her hair and they both ran, leading to an edge of the ground. Rapunzel used her hair as some sort of rope to climb to the other parts of the place. Flynn used the pan to knock out some of the guards.

"A horse fighting Flynn? This is too silly for me to handle!" The Slave watched them try to escape. It was definitely nail-biting stuff.

The horse kicked a piece of wood, as the water from the dam spewed out. It was going to flood sooner than ever. They ran and ran to a small cave. The water began to flow more and more until the dam broke and the water creating a huge wave.

They managed to enter the cave, but rocks fell and got themselves trapped inside. The worst part is that the cave began to fill up with the water. Chances of survival are very low.

Rapunzel thought of something. If her hair can glow, it may as well lead them to the exit of the cave!

"Smart girl, smart girl!" The slave exclaimed. They pulled away the rocks and managed to get on land.

"Uh oh, but what about Gothel?" The slave was in a panic and commanded to show Gothel. She was making a deal with the two thieves that Flynn used to work with earlier. She traded the crown and offered to kill Flynn Rider.

Gothel has gone too far with her plan. 

Luckily, Flynn and Rapunzel made it out of the cave and went on land. Gothel needed to find Rapunzel. She was getting older and older without her flower.

Her precious, little flower.
