A Very Hairy Fairy Tale Retelling

**A Very Hairy Fairy Tale Retelling** is a video based on a concept Sarah West made for YankieDude5000.

## Plot

Woody Woodpecker is reading the fairy tale story "Rapunzel" with the Doki Doki Pretty Cure fairy mascots. He doesn't like the story because he thinks it's lame, boring, dull, and uninteresting, mainly because Rapunzel spends most of the story just sitting in her tower and waiting for someone to rescue her. He thinks the theme of a princess being a damsel in distress is too old and out-of-date for today's society, and thinks that if classic fairy tales were rewritten to portray the female lead roles as strong and independent, then he'd enjoy them a little more. This gives Sharuru, Raquel, and Lance an idea. They decide to make up their own version of the Rapunzel story, and ask Woody to help them. He agrees, and they begin to take the story and give it their own twist. In their version of the story, Rapunzel almost resembles Mana Aida, albeit with long golden hair, which almost resembles Cure Heart's hair. In the story, she doesn't get locked in the tower by an evil witch, but by The Selfish Trio, who want to figure out if her hair has magic powers. Rapunzel doesn't like the fact that she's stuck in a tower, and thinks it's boring to do nothing in a small room all day. She wants to find a way to escape. One day, while she's brushing her hair, a prince (who looks like a human version of Woody) comes riding on a horse, but gets knocked off and crashes into the tower. When he sees Rapunzel's hair coming out from the window, he decides to climb up, but as he begins to climb, Rapunzel starts yelling in pain and tells him that her hair is not a rope ladder. The prince looks for another way to climb up the tower, when he suddenly spots an elevator, and decides to get on it to reach the top instead. When he gets to the top, he tells Rapunzel that he didn't know there was an elevator in the tower. As he reaches over to kiss her, she throws him out the window, because she's a strong, independent girl who doesn't need a prince to come and save her. Woody is mad at the part where Rapunzel throws the prince out the window and tells Sharuru that it's not funny because a princess would never throw a prince out the window, but she tells him the good part's coming up. As the story continues, Rapunzel reveals that she's been weaving a ladder out of yarn so she can get out of the tower, even though she's learned it has an elevator, but she's not going to take any chances. She lowers the ladder and climbs out of the tower, and when she reaches the bottom, she sees the Selfish Trio waiting for her, but she's not going to let them have their ways with her, so she transforms into Cure Heart and defeats them with her Lovely Force Arrow attack, blasting them away. As Rapunzel goes on to live a normal life, the Haven City Guards arrest the Selfish Trio for their actions and send them to the Baron's Fortress. As Woody and the fairy mascots finish their story, Woody admits that he likes the ending due to the crazy plot twist. They think their Rapunzel retelling is so good, that they decide to show it to Mana, so they run off to find her so they can tell their silly story.
