Hey there, so this is my Idea of a sequel for the movie Brave (I have had this Idea long before the movie came out). First, I will describe to you what my OC in the story looks like: Name: Edward, Age: 17, Hair: Brown, Skin: normal, Muscles: normal sized. So I hope you guys enjoy the story.

Chapter 1

(Edwards POV)

It was a cold night in the noisy Pub, and I just felt like I had been through a hard day's work. My name is Edward; I am a wanderer who has been traveling the country side for more than two years now. It all started when I was just 15 years old living with my two loving parents in a small village, they cared for me and were always there to keep me safe. But everything changed when a Viking named Alrek the hunter attacked my village and killed both of my parents, but not before my dad gave me his knife and told me to run, I escaped the village, but I couldn't say the same for everybody else. About a year later with some combat training I had received from a knight, I was able to locate Alrek's ship, leave a scar on his face with my father's knife, and set the boat on fire, while he was still on it. Ever since then, I have done nothing but wonder from place to place, settling down in one kingdom and then moving to the next, and basically taking on on anyone who threatens me along the way. I was in the Pub getting a few drinks until two men walked up to me, they were a couple of nasty looking, dirty folks who don't seem to take kindly to strangers.

"Hey" the man said in a gravely tone "What are you doing here?"

"I'm just getting a drink, you got a problem with that" I replied.

"This is our spot, and you aren't allowed to be here" the other man replied "And if you don't leave, then I think it's time we taught you a lesson"

"Look, I don't want any trouble" I said to them.

"It's too late for that" the man said with a sneer. They both surrounded me and just as they started to attack, I grabbed a log that was standing in the corner and bashed it over the first man's head, knocking him out and causing him to fall to the ground, then I took the other man and smashed his face right on the counter, knocking him to the ground. The two men were lying on the ground out cold, and I walked out of the bar, and whistled to my horse which I used for transportation. I thought of where to go to next, until I saw a map on the ground that leeds to the the highlands on the other side of the country. I picked the map up off the groundand knew that I had just found my next place to travel to. So I got on my horse, I snapped the reins, and I was off to the Highlands, where hopefully I would do a lot better there.

(Merida's POV)

It was bright and sunny afternoon in the kingdom of Dunbroch. It's been over a month since my wee little incident with the witch and my mother turning into a bear, and everything has adjusted back to normal with me and my family. My mother had gotten me a brand new bow to make up for the one that she damaged earlier. It looks exactly like the old one, except it was carved from a different wood. I had just finished lunch, and I headed off for a little ride around the forest. I hopped onto me horse Angus, grabbed my new bow, and I was off into the forest, shooting the targets as I moved. Surprisingly, it worked as good as my original bow and I shot the bulls-eye with ease. I stopped at the edge of a cliff so that I could look at the view below; I patted Angus's head as I saw a flock of birds fly past us. Ever since my speech for the three lords about their sons and about how they can choose their own brides, I have wondered if they had followed my advice. If they had found someone special by now (or choose to wait a little while longer) then I wonder when the right person for me will come, someone who shares my hobbies, and is just right for me. I saw the sun go down and figured that it was almost time for supper.

"Come on Angus, let's go" I said to my horse as I got up, and rode off back to the castle where my mother and father were probably waiting for me.

After dinner with my family, I went outside and sat down so that I could get some fresh air and gaze at the stars for a little bit. Then, I saw my mother coming out through a door and stood right next to me.

"Hello mother" I said to her.

"Hello Merida" she said back "What are you doing out here?"

"Oh not much just gazing at the stars, relaxing for a bit" I replied. She noticed my expression and decided to talk to me for a bit.

"What's wrong Merida?" she asked me.

"What are you talking about" I replied back.

"I can tell that something's troubling you, talk to me for a minute, just tell me what's wrong" she said to me, and so I decided to just go on ahead and started talking.

"Remember that speech I gave for the three lords about their sons, about how they could choose their own brides?" I asked.

"Yes, I heard about it and how they accepted that Idea" she replied.

"Well, it's just… I figure that they would now choose who they like, but I wonder if there is someone for me out there" I said

"Well, there are plenty of fine men" my mother said.

"I know, but I want someone who knows me by heart, someone who shares my hobbies, and someone who is a little more… natural" I said to her

"Don't worry, you'll find someone special someday" mother said to me.

"You really think so?" I asked her.

"Yes Merida, I'm sure" she said smiling "Now come to bed, you can go do whatever you like tomorrow"

"Yes mother" I replied, and then I got up, walked into my bedroom, and went to sleep, never knowing what the next day could bring me".

Alright, so that's the end of the first chapter, I'll try to get the next chapter up as soon as possible, please leave a review for me and tell me what you think.
