Chapter 2
It had been one night since Rapunzel was taken. "Good morning, your highness.." Her captor mocked. "Who are you??" The Queen demanded. "Oh.. Where are my manners? My name is Nebulus, I am the Night Weaver, the host of the Star Shard." Nebulus explained, "I need you to help me fully awaken my true power of the dusk so I can vanquish you, the sun and the moon, but I don't know where they are." "I will NEVER help you hurt me or my brother." Rapunzel declared. But Nebulus just smirked, asking, "Oh, so that kid I saw last night must be your brother and the Moonstone? I guess you are helpful." Rapunzel's eyes widened, realizing that she had messed up. "But don't worry, that isn't my plan, you are merely just bait, my Queen." He told her. "Bait for what??" She spat. "You see, I have been destined to awaken on the night of a blue moon star shower, which is in a few months from now, we are very far from home, so if my calculations are correct, your people should arrive to you by that very night, and I assume that your brother must be coming along as well, then, I need the blood of both you and the wielder of the Moonstone to ascend to godhood and lead this entire world into eternal night, forever." Nebulus revealed. Queen Rapunzel gasped. "But then, you come in early so that way, you can thwart your friends from afar." He said. "I won't be doing that." Rapunzel enunciated. "But here's the thing, you won't have a choice, your highness.." Nebulus told her. With that, he summoned shadows all around him and they wrapped themselves around the Queen's mind, twisting her thoughts and lingering power into something far more darker..
BACK IN CORONA
"Rapunzel is GONE?!" Eugene and Cass exclaimed in unison. Varian frantically nodded. "And you didn't think to tell right after it actually happened?!" Cassandra shouted. Prince Varian winced, claiming, "I didn't know what to do! It all went on so fast! A-And I tried to help, b-but then she vanished before I could stop it!" Black rocks suddenly shot from the ground around Varian, and fell to his knees, going under a severe panic attack. "Hey, buddy, it's okay, that was my bad, I shouldn't have yelled at you like that Vari.." Cass tried to comfort. "I.. I'm sorry!! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry!" He screamed. Frederick and Arianna then came rushing into the room, hearing the shouting. "Son!" His father shouted. Cass backed up. "Oh.. Sweetie it's okay, we'll find her.." Arianna soothed. But nothing was getting to him. "THIS IS ALL MY FAULT!!!" Varian screamed, "I-I should've protected her, I don't know if she's going to be okay or if she's hurt or if she's scared, I just know that if I saved her, everything would be fine, but no! I'm weak, I couldn't do anything, and now my sister is gone!" His parents gave each other concerned looks while Prince Varian shuddered against his mother. "We need to save her.." Cass ordered..
