Chapter 13
After the sun rose the next morning, Varian, Rapunzel, Cassandra and Eugene heard a very familiar laugh in the distance. They all ran outside to see Zhan Tiri trampling out of the forest. "Corona.." She snarled. The crowd shrieked in terror, but the demon encased them in black rocks. "We'll have to fight." Cass said under her breath. "But.. But isn't it the day of the Total Eclipse?" Eugene asked. "It is, that's why we need to finish this.." Rapunzel answered. Varian nodded.

Varian chanted. The clash of the gold of the sun and the teal of the moon was gorgeous against Zhan Tiri's obsidian of corruption. Before colliding the Sundrop and the Moonstone together from the demon's wrists, in order to tie them, Princess Rapunzel had to cut her hair once again. "No.. NO NO NO!!!"
