[The more time she spends wandering the streets of the city, the more Rapunzel realizes that maybe doing so without thinking is a bad idea. Nothing terrible has happened to her yet, but there's a feeling that hangs over her and presses at the back of her neck when she's out alone... it's sort of similar to how she felt in Vardaros, the feeling of people keeping an eye on her - but it's decidedly more sinister here. It's not like Corona where the guards were friendly but alert, where mostly everyone knew each other and watched out for each other. There's a layer of unease here in the dead of night, and it makes Rapunzel quicken her step in her journey home.
A journey that is very suddenly interrupted by the sounds of a scuffle and yelling - familiar yelling, that makes her heart both sink and swell. She can't just - she can't ignore this, so despite a small voice at the back of her head telling her this might not be the best of ideas, she charges forward.
... And ohhhh boy it's a good thing she did, when she skids to a stop in the alley where Cassandra had been jumped. She sees that glowing blue-haired figure, and the figures closing in on that, and in a flash, she reaches up to pull the ties out of her hair.]
Hey!
[Gripping a fistful of hair tightly in one hand, she lashes out with it like cracking a whip, that indestructible blonde hair wrapping tightly around the throat of one of the people (creatures???) closing in on Cassandra, yanking them back and causing them to stumble and fall.]

Get away from her!
