Repunzel is an ordinary child.Living in a life of luxury. With servants to do chores for her, enough food and great clothes to wear. But as Repunzel grew older she realized a big wall was surrounding her home. She had the curiosity a normal child would, and one day went up to Mother Gothel and said, "There is a wall surrounding our home," "Yes there is," was Mother Gothel reply. There was a couple more times Repunzel talked to Mother Gothel about the wall, and finally decided to climb over the wall. This adventure was on her 12th birthday. Even though she was living a normal life outside the wall she saw something much different from her own living style. The whole town was run down, black and smokey, and the people dressed in rags. She saw her mother and the memories came back to her, she remembered how Mother Gothel had taken her as a baby. Then, as a punishment Mother Gothel locked her up in a tower. Repunzel always had enough food to eat and a bed, but there must have been some type of Mother Gothel's growth magic, because her hair got insanely long and she had to cut her nails every day, and some animals were becoming very large! One day Mother Gothel came for the last time, Repunzel refused to come back so Mother Gothel left. Soon the food stopped coming and the window in her tower started getting smaller, and the tower started getting higher up from the ground. Then she decided to get out so she used her hair to get out. Then she met this boy who helped her and gave her some clothes. Then they got wound up in jail, then they saved a kidnapped girl and got blamed for stealing her. Then they went on an adventure to find Mother Gothels villa and a way to get in. They locked Mother Gothel in a tree, (but not before she cut off Repunzel's braids!!!) Killed her growth magic, and rescued Repunzels mother,Then they all lived happily ever after.(sorta)
