W 10/25/12 Rapunzel Remix Part I There was once a man and a woman who had long in vain wished for a child. However this man and this woman were not ordinary human beings. When the sun descended behind the hill every night, it was their time to feed. They thirsted only for human blood. Yes, they were vampires. The woman hated what she was. Ever since she was a little girl she longed for a child. When she was turned into a vampire at the ripe age of sixteen she refused to kiss that dream good bye. For the last two centuries she and her husband have searched the world for a witch who could grant her wish. One day they heard a rumor about a witch named Gothel who supposedly had the cure. Outside her home she had a garden of magical plants surrounded by a high wall. According to the rumor, the plants could impregnate a vampire. The only problem was that Gothel was known for hating vampires. If she were to find out they were in her town she would kill them without hesitation. The vampiress was determined to have a child and no wall was going to get in her way. They waited until midnight to crossover and take what they have waited so long for. The husband crossed over first for he did not want to risk his wife being harmed. He jumped to the top of the wall with ease, went down and grabbed as many plants as he could. The wife scarfed down the plants, ignoring the revolting taste. The next day, her belly was already getting bigger. It was a miracle. The vampires were ecstatic with joy. The only side effect was that the wifes craving for blood was now

Forney 2 replaced with a craving only for the magical plant. The husband made a routine of going to the garden every night. A month went by and the baby was already almost ready to come out into the new world. The vampire decided to go over the wall one last time to make sure he was prepared for the delivery. Astonishingly, Gothel the witch was siting in her yard waiting for him. You thought you were really going to get away with this, didnt you? she said. The husband jumped backwards into a defensive stance baring his fangs. Oh you think that is going to scare me? Have you forgotten that I am a witch? Ive been on this earth much longer than you have. I dont care. What do you want? the vampire asked with no fear. I want what belongs to me, your new born baby. NO! exclaimed the vampire. He ran up to her ready to tear her to pieces. Her powers were too much for him. With a wave of her hand he was on the ground. Listen to me vampire. Your wife is going to die. My plants can impregnate a vampire but no vampire can survive giving birth. You evil witch you knew this was going to happen! What do you want of our child? Well if you must no, I collect unordinary creatures for my potions. You do not know the possibilities of a vampire baby. I bet just a lock of its hair can make a magnificent difference on a spell I have been working on. NO! I will not allow it. I am not losing both my beloved wife and my child to you! demanded the husband. He ran towards her again ready with all his strength.

The witch killed the vampire without a care. She went to the home of the vampires to pay a visit to the unknown widow. The wife was lying in bed, yelling and screaming in pain. The baby was coming! Who are you?! the vampiress asked filled with confusion. Im the witch who you have been taking plants from. Im here to help you. Where is my husband? He went to get some blood so that you are not hungry after you deliver. But we need to focus on you right now. When I say its time, Im going to need you to push. Can I trust you? Of course young one, lets get this baby out into the new world. The vampiress dies and Gothel takes the baby girl. She names her Rapunzel after her magical plants. Thanks to them she now had a vampire baby who could be the source of new powerful spells that could make her the most powerful witch in the world.

Part II Gothel took the baby girl back to her home but decided to hold off her experimentations for when Rapunzel was fully developed. Since she needed Rapunzel as healthy as possible, she decided that she unwillingly had to take care of a vampire baby. The baby cried and cried through the nights and some days Gothel wanted to just kill the indecent creature. Her hatred for vampires did not lesson as the years went by. Everyday having to feed it human blood was nauseating. However by the time Rapunzel turned seven years old weird things started to happen. One day Gothel heard too many voices coming from Rapunzels room. She went inside and found her sitting on the floor talking to a levitating

Forney 4 chair and the chair was talking back to her. Not only was the chair talking but the bed was talking too! What the hell is going on here?! Rapunzel quickly turned to look at Gothel and all the voices stopped. The chair dropped to the floor and the faces on the furniture disappeared. I was talking to my new friends, said Rapunzel calmly. How did you do that?! Like this, Rapunzel said as she pointed her finger at the chair. A face suddenly appeared. Hi Rapunzel! the chair said with sheer joy. Rapunzel smiled back at it. Gothel stared with disbelief. She snapped her fingers and the chair was quiet once again. My magic plants gave you magical powers. You have got to be kidding me, Gothel said with frustration. She slumped down to the floor in the corner. Whats wrong Goth? Rapunzel said looking puzzled and confused. She crawled over to the corner and cuddled next to her. Nothing Rapunzel. Just dont bite me or Ill shock you again and you know you dont like it when Goth shocks you. Dinner is not until later. Gothel began thinking and evaluating her situation. This baby was becoming way too much of a hassle. Rapunzel I think its time that I showed you my spell room. Ok! Rapunzel said excited to see something new. Follow me.

Forney 5 Gothel was beginning her experimentations. She didnt care if the vampire baby was developed or not, she could not take this anymore. Gothel strapped the child down on a large table. Did I do something wrong? Rapunzel said as she watched Gothel secure each strap. No not at all. Were just playing a game. Gothel went to her cauldron and began combining ingredients. She cut off a few strands of Rapunzels hair and dropped them into the cauldron. The potion began to boil and glow. Yeeeesssss,said Gothel gazing at her new creation. The cauldron began to shake and stir. Gothel placed some into a cup and tasted it. Immediately she dropped to the floor. Goth! Are you ok?! Rapunzel screamed. Gothel got up on her feet. Something was definitely different. Part III Ten years passed and Rapunzel is now seventeen years old. Gothel never let her cut her hair again after that day in her potions room. Rapunzel grew up to be a beautiful, young, and magical vampire with elegantly long black hair. Gothel stuck her in a tower where there was no chance of her ever running away. She surrounded the tower with venomous plants that no vampire could pass without suffering extreme pain. Rapunzel was becoming a restless vampire, she dreamed of one day going on a hunt, pouncing onto a helpless mammal, and draining all the luscious blood out of its veins. In her spare time she worked on her magic and practiced spells. Gothel refused to teach her anything but Rapunzel watched and imitated the things she did when she was gone. Everyday Gothel came with breakfast and dinner, an already dead animal. Every three days Gothel came

Forney 6 back at noon waiting for Rapunzel to let down her hair. Rapunzel would let her hair down and Gothel would walk to her hair, cut a few strands, and leave. Gothel never let Rapunzel know why she did this but she knew if she refused, the punishment would not be worth it. When the sun descended down behind the tall trees Rapunzel spent the night gazing at the moon, daydreaming about her real parents and living the life of a real vampire. One night a man came wondering pass the venomous plants towards her tower. Rapunzel was shocked and her instinct unconsciously took over. She jumped from her window, keeping out of sight. The man seemed lost and confused. Rapunzel slowly crept up behind him ready to kill. Before she pounced, he suddenly turned around. Rapunzel never saw a man before. He jumped with fear but didnt run. Hello? My name is Jonathon. What are you doing out here? the young man said carefully. Rapunzel quickly got up on her feet, abruptly filled with nerves. Hi. I live in the tower, said Rapunzel anxiously. She looked around not remembering how she got down there so fast. What is your name? Rapunzel. Beautiful name, said Jonathon, Do you know your way around here? Im lost. Sorry I dont actually. The two sat down in the grass as Rapunzel explained her story. Youre a vampire with magical powers? How awesome is that! Im a male witch, a warlock. I recognized the venomous plants surrounding this land. Do you want me to help you escape? explained Jonathon.

Forney 7 Yes! I am dying to go out and be free to roam lands and hunt for prey, said Rapunzel. Yeah I saw your face when I turned around, Jonathon laughed, Well lets get you out of here. I may be lost but anywhere must be better than here. Yes! Thank you so much! Rapunzel and Jonathon gathered her things and Jonathon began creating a safe pathway to the real world. Are you ready? Yep its now or never. They started walking through the bushes. Where do you think youre going Rapunzel? Gothel appeared out of thin air. You think I dont have this place secured, youre a vampire! You cant be trusted, just like your parents! LET ME LEAVE! yelled Rapunzel. You can scream and rant all you want but I am not letting you go anywhere. Why not? said Jonathon. None of your business fool! said Gothel. Leave him alone! Rapunzel exclaimed. Oh shuuutuuup. I dont want to hear it, get back in the tower. Why do you need my hair? demanded Rapunzel through clenched teeth. Im not explaining myself to you! Gothel started walking towards the tower. Rapunzel pointed at Gothel and levitated her off the ground. All her anger and impatience built up over the year was about to be vented. Rapunzel dropped her to the ground and

Forney 8 sped towards her. She froze her to the ground, punched her in the face, and kicked her. Jonathon used his magic and had glowing arrows fall from the sky and hit Gothel directly in the chest. Gothel passed out. Rapunzel, the vampire and Jonathon, the warlock took this as their chance and ran.
