From GROUNDED: A TALE OF RAPUNZEL"If you want the fairy's cure," Jack taunted, "you better come and get it yourself." He slipped down into the darkness. Moments later, his weight vanished from Rapunzel's braid, and she lifted her head, her heart thumping. "LIAR!" she screamed. Witch had warned her. Ground people were liars. Rapunzel should have guessed what Jack would do. Yet she had failed, and now the fairies would get their cure, and the powerful fairy would wake up again. And Witch would die. Panic seized Rapunzel. She clutched the railing and swung one leg over it, and then the other, until she was barely perched, by the toes of her slippers, on a tiny ledge of stone. She looked down and choked. The tower had never seemed so high. She could not think about what she was about to do. She couldn't think or she would stop, and she couldn't stop. Witch's life depended on her. She released the railing with one hand and grabbed the rope that Jack had left behind.
