Chapter 16: I've got a dream
The group traveled for hours to reach the Kingdom. Throughout their travels, Rapunzel mostly hung around with Erza and talked about their childhood. Erza then showed and explained to her the life that was around for a better understanding.
Rapunzel: I see. You lived in a tower when you were little?
Erza: Yes. I couldn't stand staying in that tower. I just wanted to disappear.
Rapunzel: I'm so sorry.
Erza: Don't worry. Because after I left, I made such wonderful friends.
Rapunzel: After hearing your story, I wonder if it's the same as mine.
Erza: I don't think so. Yes you lived in a tower throughout your life, but from what you told us you have a loving mother.
Rapunzel: Yeah, you're right.
Sora: Wow. Erza musta had a rough childhood.
Gray: Yeah. But she moved on from that.
Lucy: Now she is the strongest female mage in Fairy Tail..
Natsu: And I'm gonna beat her someday!" (everyone sighs).
Lucy: That reminds me. Flynn, why did you decide to help her?
Flynn: I told you, I'm a nice guy.
While walking, Lucy noticed a wanted poster on a tree. She then grabbed it and saw that the poster showed a description of Flynn's face, except for the nose.
Lucy: (suspicious) What's this?
Flynn panicked after seeing the poster. He grabbed it out of Lucy's hand and ripped it up.
Flyan: (nervous smile) Oh, that's just nothing important. Let's keep moving forward!
Flynn ran up to Rapunzel, leaving a more suspicious Lucy.
After traveling through the forest, the group entered into a forest clearing and saw a giant white puffball at the center of the clearing.
Rapunzel: (excited) Oh, look. What is that? It's so fluffy! (goes to touch it)
Gajeel: (curious) What is that thing doing in the middle of the forest?
Rapunzel went up to the puffball to examine it. She looked amazed at what she saw. She placed her hand on the puffball to feel it but when she touched it, something came out of it. It looked like a couple of small white dandelions came out of the puffball.
When they landed on the ground, they then transformed into black monsters with a yellow flower on their heads, making Rapunzel nervous. She then looked at the puffball and saw something black underneath it. It then jumped into the air and then grew some leaves on its sides for arms, revealing it to be Chief Puff. Rapunzel now looked terrified.
Sora: (summons his Keyblade) Rapunzel, take cover!
Listening to Sora, she then ran up to Flynn, grabbed him, and hid behind his back like a human shield. Flynn looked surprised and nervous before he smirked.
Flynn: All right, I hate to say it, but I'm lettin' you outta this deal.
Rapunzel: (surprised) What?
Lucy: (angry) What are you saying?
Flynn: It's way too scary out here for her. Let's just turn around and take her home.
Erza: (cold tone) Do not decide for her. (Flynn got nervous) What do you want to do, Rapunzel?
Rapunzel: (determine) I am seeing those lanterns. (Erza smiles)
She then bravely grabbed some of her hair and ran up to Sora.
Flynn: (angry) Oh, come on!
Sora: Rapunzel?
Rapunzel: It's okay. I'm not afraid to face them.
Sora was still unsure by her decision.
Erza: (came up to him) I think she can handle it.
Rapunzel then wrapped her hair around a group of Heartless and threw them against the wall, impressing the others.
Sora: Alright. Be careful, Rapunzel.
Rapunzel: I will!
The Puffballs jumped on top of each other until the largest Puffball jumped on top.
Rapunzel: Look, they made a tower.
The Puffball at the top then started to fire needles from its head at everyone.
Gray: Ice-Make: Shield!
Gray created an ice shield in front of the tower, blocking all of the needles. Erza charged at the tower and destroyed the middle part of the tower.
Natsu: Hey, Rapunzel! Care to help?
Rapunzel: Oh, yes!
Rapunzel threw her hair into the air and made it wrap around a tree branch. She then grabbed Natsu's hand and both of them swung into the air using her hair as a swing.
Natsu: (feels sick) I'm gonna get sick! (about to barf onto Rapunzel's hair)
Rapunzel: Oh, sorry!
Rapunzel threw Natsu at the tower as he then ignited his entire body.
Natsu: Fire Dragon Iron Fist!
Natsu punched the tower down, burning all the Puffball Heartless in the process. While the group cheered at Natsu's victory, Rapunzel and Flynn were the only ones that were shocked and stunned by Natsu's power.
Rapunzel: How is that possible?! I thought he was going to crash into it!
Flynn: (terrified) That guy is a monster!
Erza: Relax. He may have destructive power, but he still cares for others and enjoys having fun.
Natsu: Wow, that hair thing was awesome. (came up to Rapunzel's face, making her a little cautious but surprised) It's too bad I have motion sickness. If I didn't, I would enjoy riding on your hair.
Rapunzel: (nervous) Um, thank you.
Suddenly, Natsu tripped on Rapunzel's hair and yelped, tumbling onto the ground while getting wrapped up in her hair.
After Natsu crashed into a tree, Rapunzel's hair was in a giant knot while Natsu still had her hair around him. Everyone then started to laugh.
hair around him. Everyone then started to laugh.
Gray: Hahaha! You clumsy idiot!
Natsu: Shut up frosty and get me out of this!
Gray: Just burn it.
Lucy: No, then it will ruin her hair!
After seeing this, Rapunzel started to giggle then laughed so hard she fell onto the ground.
Flynn: (stunned) Why are you laughing!?
Rapunzel: I'm sorry, but it was funny! First he was really tough and scary, then he turned into a clumsy person!
Rapunzel came over to Natsu and got the hair off of him while Flynn began to calm down.
Rapunzel: But, I need something to fix my hair since it's in a knot. Mother always combed my hair so that it wouldn't be ruined. It is hard to use my hair like this.
Lucy: Let me help. (grabbed one of her keys) Open! Gate of the Giant Crab! Cancer!
Cancer: (appeared next to Lucy) Hello baby!
Flynn: (stunned) A human crab?
Cancer: (looks at Rapunzel's hair) Whoa, that's a lot of hair Baby. It was like that red-haired girl's hair, but this one is blond.
Lucy: Cancer, this is Rapunzel Her hair got knotted up and it is bad for her to use it. Can you fix it?
Cancer: Sure thing Baby. Your hair will be fixed in no time, Miss Rapunzel.
Rapunzel's entire air was then covered with water and soap. She looked so relaxed as Cancer was about to get rid of the knot.
Rapunzel: This feels so nice. But, please don't cut the knot. Use a different method to get rid of it.
Cancer: Alright.
Cancer then spread his fingers through the knotted area and combed it, making it straight again.
Rapunzel: (surprised) Oh, wow. It's straight again! Thank you.
Cancer: No problem Baby.. I will be returning now, Miss Lucy. Call me when you need me.
Cancer then disappeared, returning to the Spirit World.
Sora: Alright. Since everyone is all set, let's continue to the festival.
Everyone: Yeah.
(back at the Tower)
Back at Rapunzel's tower, a woman appeared inside the tower looking very worried. She had black curly hair, wore a maroon dress, and had a black cape with a hood on. She then looked around the room breathing heavily.
Woman: Rapunzel? Rapunzel!
She entered Rapunzel's room. She then ran back into the main room and opened the curtains to show some light, but Rapunzel was not there. The woman began to panic and breathed heavily.
Woman: (thoughts) She must've left the tower! Why did it have to be now?!
A sparkle of light then shines into the woman's left eye. Bothered by the light, the woman looked for the source and found that it was coming from inside the bottom step of the stairs.
The woman headed towards the stairs and pulled the surface of the bottom step off, inside was a brown bag. The woman opened the bag, and pulled out a tiara with diamonds on top. The woman looked horrified and threw the tiara onto the ground and away from her.
She breathed heavily and tried to relax. She then grabbed the bag and searched it again. What she pulled out was a wanted poster that had Flynn's face on it, but it messed up his nose. It said: Wanted Dead or Alive. Flynn Rider Thief.
The woman looked furious at what she saw.
Woman: So he took her. He must've wanted her power and took her from me!
???: Missing someone?
Woman: (gasped and turned around) Who's there?
She then saw a dark corridor appear in the middle of the room. Two people came through the corridor, revealing to be a man wearing a black coat with long pink hair and Iblis.
The woman gasped and dropped the wanted poster out of fear.
Man: She's such a precious gift. (walking up towards her) Allow us to assist you getting her back.
The woman looked terrified as her eyes widened. Suddenly, her eyes then turned to a maroon color.
(with the group)
After their encounter with the puffball Heartlesses, the group continued their journey to the Kingdom.
Before they could move on, Rapunzel ran past them
Rapunzel: Dandelions!
They all saw Rapunzel in a field of dandelions.
Rapunzel: Look! Watch
She grabbed one of the flowers and blew on it, making the seeds on the flower fly away.
Rapunzel: I thought that might work. But I wish there was a way to make more fly at once.
Wendy: Let me try.
She then stood at the center of the dandelions and began to suck the air into her mouth.
Wendy: Sky Dragon Wave Wind!
Wendy swung her hands and created a small gust of wind. The seeds from the flower flew right off and floated into the sky. Rapunzel looked amazed and happy at what she just saw.
Rapunzel: They're just like the floating lights.That was amazing, Wendy!
Wendy: (blush) Oh...it was nothing.
Laxus: We should keep moving forward. You have to be aware of time.
Flynn: He's right. It's already noon and I don't want the law on my tail.
Lucy: (confused) The 'wha' on your tail?
Flynn: Uh... nothing! Let's go.
The group continues moving.
Rapunzel: Whoa. I never imagined the forest would be so big!
Gajeel: This girl is always curious about everything.
Lily: Yes. She's like a little child.
Erza: Now let's be fair. She's been living in a tower throughout her life.
Rapunzel: Rabbits!
The group saw Rapunzel kneeling down and petting three rabbits.
Sora: (sees Heartless) Heartless!
Rapunzel: Oh, no, you're not picking on these rabbits.
Everyone proceeds to destroy the Heartlesses while Rapunzel and Flynn protect the rabbits. After a while, all the Heartlesses were destroyed.
Rapunzel: Don't worry. It's safe now.
The rabbits then hopped past Rapunzel and went off into a different direction.
Rapunzel: Oh, maybe they want to show us something. Let's follow them!
Gray: Really?
Rapunzel: Yes, come on!
They all followed the rabbits until they stopped at a small trail with bushes. They all crawl into the trail to reach the rabbits. When they reached an opening, the rabbits presented them with a potion gift.
Rapunzel: I think they want us to have this. Thank you.
Erza: (blush) You are all just the sweetest.(petted them on the head)
Sora couldn't help but blush because of how Erza was acting so cute.
Sora: (blush) So cute...
Rapunzel: The outside world is even better than I dreamed.
The rabbits then hopped away from the group yet again continued their journey. While walking, they stopped in front of a large pond and decided to take a break.
Rapunzel: Look at all this water. (ran into the pond) It's so refreshing! You have to come.
Sora: You want to come in, Juvia?
Juvia: (starry eyes) Yes, my beloved. (ran into the pond)
Donald: (smirk) She'll do anything for you. (chuckles at Sora)
Sora: Hey!
When both Sora and Juvia came up to Rapunzel she splashed them with water, making them put their arms up to avoid getting water in their eyes.
Rapunzel: See? It feels nice. (run around in the water splashing the two)
Sora: Oh, you're in for it! (splashed back at her)
Rapunzel: Sora!
They continued to splash each other while Juvia was standing there looking confused.
Juvia: What's so fun about this?
Sora: Hey, Juvia! Give us a good splash we won't forget!
Juvia: Of course!
Juvia raised her hands in the air and suddenly, two giant pillars came up from underneath Sora and Rapunzel, making them fly into the air screaming and crashing onto the ground.
Juvia: How was that, my love?
When Juvia turned to face Sora, she saw that everyone was laying on the ground, wet. Juvia was horrified at what she saw and ran up to Sora.
Juvia: (teary eyes) Sora, my dear! Don't walk into the light!
Sora: Juvia, I'm not dead!
Juvia: Darling, you're alive! (hugs Sora, puts his face in her breasts) I'm so happy!
Sora: (blush) Mmph!
Donald: We're all wet!
Rapunzel: (points at the sky) But look! A rainbow!
The giant splash Juvia made created a giant rainbow in the sky.
Rapunzel: That is amazing, Juvia!
Sora: (blush, muffed) Y-Yeah... you're amazing, Juvia.
After Natsu and Wendy dried everyone off, they left the pond and continued on their journey before they saw a few posters and noticed Flynn's face on it.
Goofy: Say, doesn't that look a lot like Flynn?
Flynn: (sweats tremendously)
Sora: (shakes his head) Nah, that isn't Flynn.
Flynn: (sighs in relief)
Sora: Besides, his nose is not right.
Flynn: (small squeal of pain) WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?!
After that they wondered why Flynn looked like he got his soul shattered. Eventually, they all made it into a forest clearing where they saw something standing in the middle of the clearing. It looked like a giant green flower bud.
Laxus: What the hell is that?
Flynn: Okay. (points at the flower) That's suspicious.
Sora: Rapunzel...
Rapunzel: Don't worry. I know to be careful around flowers now. (winks at him)
Sora: Whatever it is, it's not normal. I'll take a look. (walks closer)
Donald: Watch it.
Juvia: (worried) Be careful, my darling.
Sora approaches the odd vegetation and examines it while everyone waits with bated breath. After seeing no imminent threat from the flower, he turns to the group.
Sora: We're all clear.
After hearing this, everyone relaxed and sighed with relief.
Suddenly, the bud began to open and a tall figure came out of the bud. It had a pink pointy head with the Nobody symbol on its face, wearing a jacket with oversized, pointed shoulders and long pointed hood of faded pink. It also wears wide, elbow-length mittens that fade from pink to white. It was also holding a large pink scythe.
Donald: Sora!
As the Nobody was about to swing its scythe at Sora, he turned and saw the creature. But the Nobody was stopped when it was swallowed by a water sphere.
Juvia: Water Lock!
Erza then slashed through the Nobody in half with a sword.
Sora: (summons Keyblade) Thanks. These guys?
Goofy: (sees more spawning) They're Nobodies!
Erza: They're not like the ones from Twilight Town. Do you know what they do?
Sora: No, these guys are new to us.
Rapunzel: Mother said the outside world would be full of ruffians and thugs.
Donald: Those aren't ruffians. Those are...uhh, I dunno...
Sora: Rapunzel, Flynn, stay back!
Rapunzel: No. I want to help you fight.
Erza: We know. But I'm afraid you can't hurt them with a frying pan. Trust me on this. Flynn, could you explain?
Flynn: No problem. Knowing when to flee is one of my specialties. (runs to Rapunzel) C'mon, Rapunzel. Gotta go.
Rapunzel: But-
Flynn: Look, I wanna stay and slug it out too, but my sidekicks have it covered.
Gajeel: I'm not a sidekick!
Rapunzel: (reluctantly) All right. Please be careful, guys.
The two of them ran off in a different direction.
Erza: Lucy, Wendy, Carla, Juvia, Laxus, stay here and help Sora. The rest of us will protect Rapunzel and Flynn.
Natsu: But I wanna stay!.
Erza: Don't argue. Come on!
Natsu, Erza, Gray, Gajeel, Happy, and Lily then ran after Rapunzel and Flynn.
Sora: Okay let's do this! (strikes down a scythe Nobody)
Lucy: Star Dress: Cancer Form!
Lucy blocked the scythe that was coming towards her using one of her scissor blades and sliced the Nobody with the other scissor blade. Suddenly, more scythe Nobodies showed up.
Wendy: More showed up!
Carla: Alright!
Carla's entire body started to glow bright and she then grew taller. When the light disappeared, Carla now looks like a young girl around Wendy's age, her tail still showing and a red ribbon on it. She has shoulder length hair with cat ears on top and a black cat hair pin on her hair. She is still wearing the clothes she had on earlier.
Sora, Donald, and Goofy: She turned into a girl?!
Carla: That's right. (jumped into the air and kicked one of the scythe Nobodies) White Moon!
Wendy: Sky Dragon Crushing Fang!
Wendy gave a powerful slap across Nobody's face that delivered a backlash of wind to destroy it.
Juvia: Water Jigsaw!
Juvia transforms her body into a rapidly spinning cone, which is surrounded by a swirling mass of blades. The blade's properties resemble Water Slicer as it sliced a bunch of the Nobodies, destroying them all.
Donald and Sora Meteor, causing a few meteorites to appear in the sky bed they crashed down onto the Nobodies. Goofy then slid on his shield and slid over them, flattening the Nobodies.
Laxus: Lightning Dragon Roar!
Laxus unleashed a lightning breath attack as the attack destroyed the rest of the Nobodies.
Lucy: Those were new Nobodies (turn to Sora) Right?
Sora: Yup.
Goofy: You know who uses Nobodies...
Donald: The Organization!
Sora: Yeah. I'm surprised we haven't seen 'em.
Wendy: (sniffed) I think I can smell one of them.
Carla: (changed back into her cat form) You sure, Wendy? (Wendy nodded)
Sora: (calls out) I know you're there! Come out, you has-beens!
They all look around and then a corridor of darkness appears behind them which reveals the pink haired man.
Man: "Has-beens"? Now why would you say that?
Sora: Because, bossing around Nobodies? That's the old Organization. (mocking) Why? Are you in the "real" one too? Good for you.
Marluxia: My name is Marluxia, and yes, that is correct. How interesting it is to see you again, Sora.
Sora: (confused) Again?
Lucy: Do you know him?
Sora: No. Donald, Goofy, you know him?
Donald and Goofy: (shakes heads no)
Carla: Maybe it was during the time you forgot, like what Riku said over the phone.
Sora: I guess...
Marluxia: A shame you've no memory of me, because I remember you exceedingly well. although... it's those memories I'd soon erase.
Sora: I don't know what you're saying.
Marluxia: Nor should you. Nor will you ever, far that matter.
???: Of course not, from what you told me the kid's brain is hollow.
Coming out of the dark corridor was Iblis.
Iblis: (look at Sora) So.... you're this "Sora" I was told about. Don't look all that tough to me.
Sora: Who are you?
Juvia: (angry) And how dare you insult my darling in front of me!
Iblis: My name is Iblis, leader of the Seven Sins of the Dark Guild Devil Hand.
Sora: Devil Hand?
Donald: Sevens Sins?
Goofy: A Dark Guild?
Iblis: (laughs) Oh boy! I was told you three were stupid, but oh boy. I didn't expect this kind of stupidity.
Juvia: That was so cold to insult my beloved!
Lucy: Dark Guild? You're from Earthland?!
Iblis: Yup. That old man offered us a deal we couldn't refused if we help him out.
Sora: Master Xehanort!
Marluxia: Correct. He made a deal with our new friends. Since you made new friends on Earthland, we had to even the field.
Laxus: Can you elaborate on what you're telling us?
Marluxia: Of course, Fairy Tail. Now, if you'll permit us, we've come to ask a favor.
Sora: Favor? You have got to be kidding me. (Donald and Goofy nod in agreement)
Juvia: Yeah, why would we help you?
Marluxia: Please hear what I have to say. I'm sure you've noticed... (pauses for a bit) Well, perhaps not. But you should know that maiden with you, Rapunzel, is the very light of this world.
Everyone looked surprised at what he said.
Marluxia: Yes. I would see you guard her from its dark horrors.
Everyone: Huh?
Sora: (gets in a stance) Starting with you, right?
Marluxia: All the Organization seeks is balance. You must understand, our ultimate objective is not to clash with the light. We seek to complement it. Use that Keyblade...to keep Rapunzel safe.
Iblis: (looks at the Fairy Tail members) That goes for your magic too, Fairy Tail. But know this! We, the Devil Hand members, seek revenge on you!
A dark corridor appeared underneath Marluxia and Iblis as they disappeared.
Lucy: Revenge on us?
Sora: Did you meet these Devil Hands guys before?
Carla: No, this is the first time seeing them.
Sora: And what did he mean by Rapunzel's light...?
Wendy: (notices the others were gone) Wait, where did everyone else go?
Lucy: Natsu! Erza!
Juvia: Gajeel! Gray!
Carla: Happy! Lily!
Goofy: I guess they musta run on ahead.
Sora: Then we'd better go find them.
Everyone: Right!
(with Natsu's group)
Rapunzel: Are you sure they will be ok?
Erza: They'll be fine. They're strong.
Natsu: (angry) I wished I stayed back there. I wanna fight!", said an angry Natsu.
Gajeel: Relax, Salamander. There's probably more of them as we go."
Gray: Gajeel's right. It will be hard for them to fight the Heartless without Sora's help.
Rapunzel: You're probably right.
Flynn: Are you hungry, guys?
Natsu & Happy: Yes!.
Flynn: Good! Because I know a great place for lunch.
Rapunzel: Where?
Flynn: Oh don't you worry. You'll know it when you see it.
Flynn then grabbed Rapunzel's hand and dragged her in a different direction while the rest followed them.
Flynn: I know it's around here somewhere...
He turned where there were two fences on each side of the road and with a bar building in the middle.
Flynn: Ah there it is. The Snuggly Duckling.
Gray: A bar?
Flynn: Yep. Don't worry, very quaint place, perfect for you. Don't want you scaring and giving up on this whole endeavor, now do we?
Rapunzel: Well...I do like ducklings.
Flynn: (happy) Yay!
Natsu: We're doing this for food! (they walked up to the entrance of the bar)
Flynn: (open the door) Gason! You're finest table please!
Rapunzel gasped and looked terrified at what she saw. The bar was mostly filled with angry, smirking thugs. Each one holding different weapons: Swords, axes, and mices. One guy had a hook and was pointing at the group.
Natsu: What the hell?!
Gray: (angry) You said it was safe!
Flynn: I did? Oh, well.
Rapunzel grabbed her frying pan and held it in front of her for protection as they all walked into the bar while everyone looked at them with disdainful eyes.
Flynn: You smell that? (put his hands on Rapunzel's shoulders) Take a deep breath through the nose.
Flynn took a deep breath through his nose and with a smile on his face.
Flynn: Really let that seep in.
Gray: Yup. Definitely smells like crap in here..
Natsu: (notices a man looking at them) What are you looking at, bastard?
He then slammed his hands onto the table he was sitting.
Erza: Easy, Natsu.
Flynn: (to Rapunzel) What are you getting? "Because to me, its part man smell and the other part is really bad man smell. I don't know why, but overall it just smells like the color brown. Your thoughts?
Suddenly, Rapunzel yelped and saw one of the men grab part of her hair and examine it. Scared, Rapunzel began to pull her hair towards her and make the hair move along the man's fingers.
Thug: (deep voice) That's a lot of hair.
Flynn: She's growing it out.
Natsu: Yeah, we know another girl with long hair too.
Flynn: Is that blood in your mustache? Goldie, look at this! Look at all the blood in his mustache. Good sir, that is a lot of blood.
Lily: Yup. It's blood.
Before she could continue backing up she bumped into a large man behind her. The man growled and she pointed her frying pan in front of him for defense.
Happy: Don't worry, I'll protect you!
Erza: Calm down, Happy.
Flynn: Hey, you don't look so good, Blondie. 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, well maybe you should be back in your tower.
Erza: Wait!
Before the two could leave, the big man known as Vladimir slammed the door shut and was holding a wanted poster.
Vladimir: Is this you?
Flynn looked at the paper, moved Vladimir's finger and saw him on the poster, except with a deformed nose.
Flynn: Oh, now they're just being mean.
Hook Hand: Oh, it's him all right. Gredo, go find some guards!
The man, Gredo, exited the bar to find some guards.
Hook Hand: That reword is going to buy me a new hook.
Hook Hand grabbed Flynn's shirt and pointed his hook at Flynn's neck, making him and Rapunzel scared.
Attila: (grabs Flynn) I can use the money!
Vladimir: What about me? I'm broke!
Gray: Oh crap!
All the men from inside the bar ran up towards Flynn and tried to grab him, pushing Rapunzel and the others out of the way.
Happy: Wow, they're really desperate.
Natsu: Let's join the fight!
Natsu ran up towards the men and tackled one of them.
Erza: Let's save Flynn!
The members of Fairy Tail charged at the men.
Flynn: We can work this out!
Each man was pulling Flynn.
Rapunzel: Hey! Leave him alone!
Flynn: Gentleman, please! (got punched in the face)
Rapunzel: Gimme back my guy!
She hit some of the men with her frying pan but they weren't fazed by it. All of the men hold Flynn and the air and the hook guy is about to punch him in the face.
Hook Hand: (points at the Fairy Tail members) Hold those guys! They're in the way!
A bunch of guys grabbed all of them.
Natsu: Hey, get off!
Gray: Let go!
Flynn: (struggles) Oh, not the nose!
Rapunzel grabbed her hair and wrapped it around a wooden hanger on the ceiling. She pulled her hair, making it go up. When she let go of her hair, the hanger smacked the top of the hook guy's head, making everyone stop what they were doing.
Rapunzel: PUT HIM DOWN!!!
The hook man turned around and looked at her with an angry look on his face.
Rapunzel: (sigh) 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 hook man grabbed his axe from behind his back while one of the men put Flynn on a hanger. Still with an angry look, the man walked up to Rapunzel very close to her face, making her back away a little out of discomfort.
Erza: No, don't!
When he came close to her, the next sentence from his mouth completely caught them off guard.
Hook Hand: I had a dream, once...
The Fairy Tail members: (stunned and confused) Wait, what?
Without looking, the man threw his axe at a skinny man sitting on a stool that is shackled to a floor and holding accordions & concertinas. The axe missed his head and landed on the wall behind him, the man looked terrified by it and immediately started playing nervously.
https://youtu.be/mJICrhJD4-M
(start at 0:22 and remove Mother Gothel)
Hook Hand then started to sing. (Play "I have a dream" First verse) He then grabbed Big Nose and threw him across the room. The man then ran up towards a piano and started playing it.
All the men in the bar then started to sing. (Choir verse)
Gajeel: Let me back you up, man! (got his guitar and started playing)
Hook Hand: You get it!
Natsu and Gray: This is getting redic-
Erza: (covered their mouth) Say anything and I'll kill you. (Natsu and Gray shiver)
Rapunzel sat next to Hook Hand while he played the piano. (Hook man second verse) He then slapped Big Nose as he came up behind the hook man.
Erza then came forward and gathered everyone's attention.
Erza: I fight vicious monsters and I always protect the people. But mostly, I want to try exostic deserts!
Big Nose came up to Rapunzel. (Large nose man verse one) He lifted up his left arm. He then lifted up his foot. He then handed Rapunzel a flower, which made her smile.
He then sat in a large wooden bucket with an old man who was drunk named Shorty. The old man opened the umbrella while the large nose man pretended to row.
Shorty dressed like cupid and the large nose man lifted him in the air using a rope pulley and pushed him in the air.
(Choir verse two)
Flynn looked annoyed by all of this, along with Gray. But Natsu started to smile on all this commotion.
Big Nose came up to another man and slapped his back, making the man spit out the beer he was drinking. (Large nose verse two)
(Choir verse three) The man made a flower arrangement.
Another man was standing next to him decorating furniture.
Ulf was mining in front of Flynn, making him a little annoyed while Natsu looked at him curiously.
Attila made strawberry cupcakes. Erza grabbed one and ate it. She looked so happy when she ate that she hugged the man, making him blush.
Two men were sewing each other's clothes while another man was doing a puppet show.
(Hook Hand third verse). Vladimir was playing with two small purple unicorns, and he was smiling.
Hook Hand: (to Flynn, Natsu, Gray, Happy, and Lily) What about you?
Natsu and Gray: To be the strongest mage in Fairy Tail! (looks angry at each other) Are you trying to copy me?!
Both of them broke into a fight.
Lily: To protect my friends.
Happy: To find all kinds of yummy fish!
Hook Hand: (to Flynn) And what about you?
Flynn: I'm sorry, me
Big Nose: (got Flynn down from the hanger) What's your dream?
Flynn: No, no, no. Sorry, boys. I don't sing.
All of the men immediately pointed their swords at Flynn.
(Flynn verse one) Flynn started dancing on top of the bar table very nervously while Natsu and Gray laughed at him. He then went up to Vladimir holding the unicorn dolls and took one of them, which made him very angry. Flynn then placed the unicorn in a port filled with sand while he lay next to it. He was then grabbed by a bunch of guys and was thrown in the air.
(Rapunzel verse one) Everyone then centered their attention on Rapunzel as she danced on the table while everyone cheered. Through a window, the woman in the maroon dress saw Rapunzel and was shocked at what she was doing.
(Choir verse four) All of the men started throwing beer barrels to each other. Flynn was leaning against some barrels until someone grabbed him and set him on the wooden floor. Vladimir stomped on the wooden floor so hard that a piece of the wood flooring that Flynn was standing immediately sprung up from the ground, sending Flynn into the air and making him land on Vladimir's horns.
Vladimir then threw Flynn in the air and he landed on the side of the beer barrel. The man behind Flynn then pushed him forward and he tried to move his feet quickly as he could as he ran into a group of men that were juggling fire sticks and a man that breathed fire while Natsu ate the fire.
Natsu: (thoughts) This is really good fire!
Natsu finished eating the fire, surprising the man.
(Rapunzel, Hook Man, and Large Nose man) Everyone continued to party, dance, drink, and sing like crazy. The hook man and the large nose man lifted Rapunzel up on a table and all cheered. (End Song)
Shorty then landed in Rapunzel's arms and they all laughed.
Erza: (blush) Oh, how I wish Sora could've been here to hear me sing.
Natsu, Erza, and Gajeel: Let's do that again!
Gray: I guess they like it.
Suddenly, the entrance to the bar burst open.
Greno: I found the guards!
Everyone stopped moving and looked surprised at what they just heard. Flynn then grabbed Rapunzel to hide and she dropped the drunken old man. The members of Fairy Tail followed the two to hide.
The man at the entrance was pushed aside by a man in armor that appears to be the Captain.
Captain: Where's Rider? Where is he?! I know he's in here somewhere. Find him. Turn the place upside down if you have to!
As the guards were rummaging through the bar, the group was hiding underneath a table. Flynn looked up and saw two other men that came in with the guards. Both of them had hard red hair and were in bonds, except one of them had an eye patch.
Flynn immediately went back down after what he just saw.
Natsu: Hey, let's kick these guys asses and get out of here.
Gray & Gajeel: Done.
Erza: No. We'll be putting Flynn and Rapunzel in danger.
A hook then appeared on Flynn's right shoulder. They all looked up and saw Hook Hand guiding the group to an empty wooded area.
When he pulled a switch that was on the bar stand, wooded area began to crack open and revealing a small tunnel.
Hook Hand: Go. Live your dream.
Flynn: I will.
Hook Hand: Your dream stinks. I was talking to her and her group of friends.
Flynn entered the tunnel, looking annoyed.
Erza: Thanks for everything.
Rapunzel kisses Hook Hand on the cheek, making him blush. She then headed down the tunnel.
Erza: We hope that your dreams will come true too.
The rest went down the tunnel.
Vladimir: I believe this is the man you're looking for. (presents Shorty)
Shorty: You got me.
The captain looked confused and disgusted.
Guard 1: Sir, there's no sign of Rider.
Captain: Darn it!
Suddenly, they all heard a horse outside. A horse then bursted through the front entrance.
Captain: Maximus!
The horse, Maximus, put his face on the floor and started sniffing the area. When he came across a group of men, he stood up and pushed them aside with a very serious look and continued investigating.
Guard #2: What's he doing?
The captain covers the guard's mouth and observes Maximus. Maximus then stopped at the var table with three levers. He then pointed his hove at the wooded area behind the bar.
The guards looked confused on what they were looking at. The horse looked disappointed and he pulled the duck lever, revealing the passage.
Captain: A passage! Come on, men. Let's go! Havac, make sure those boys don't get away.
All the guards went down the passage while one guard, Havac, stayed behind and watched the other two men, pointing his spear at them with a brave look on his face.
The eye patch man responded by head butting Havoc, knocking him out. He then grabbed the guard's spear and both of them broke their chain bonds.
Eye patch man: Play it safe. We'll go get the crown.
Both men entered the passageway.
Meanwhile, Mother Gothel saw the whole thing and looked annoyed. The drunken old man appeared at the bar's entrance, singing about dreams while trying to keep his balance.
Shorty: (saw the woman) Whoa! Somebody get me a glass. Because I just found myself a tall drink of water.
Mother Gothel: (chuckles) Oh, stop it you big lug. (points her knife at the man's nose) Where does that tunnel let out?
Shorty: (nervous) Knife!
