So this story is set a few days after the defeat of Jafar. He is trapped in the lamp, and Aladdin needs to hide it somewhere, but unknown to him, there is someone seeking Jafar, and although Aladdin is gone, it doesn't mean a little persuasion can't be used to draw him back with the lamp!

Jasmine awoke in her bed chamber, half asleep and turned over to find a note left on the pillow beside her

Jasmine awoke in her bed chamber, half asleep and turned over to find a note left on the pillow beside her. She unfolded it and began to read it:

"Jasmine, I have to leave for a few days, Genie will explain for you. I'm sorry but I can't tell you were I'm going, it's too risky. Don't worry, you can trust me.

Love Aladdin.

Jasmine sat up in her bed and curiously pondered over the letter. She couldn't understand why Aladdin had left so suddenly after they had just defeated Jafar and could finally be together. She rushed out of bed and hurried to the throne room were she could hopefully find Genie. As she arrived in the throne room, she saw her father sitting on his throne. He was wearing his usual cream outfit with golden rims, and was on his way to putting the giraffe on top of the elephant of his tower when Jasmine entered.

He looked at her in surprise as he noticed that she wasn't wearing her usual blue outfit, in fact she hadn't gotten dressed at all. She wore her purple night gown with golden slippers and her hair was a mess.

"Jasmine, why are you…." Jasmine didn't let her father finish.

"Have you seen Genie?" she asked.

"The last I saw he was in the gardens but what ever you need…."

Again Jasmine didn't let her father finish. She rushed out of the throne room and headed towards the garden.

As her father had said, Genie was standing by the fountain, teasing Rajah with a slab of meat he had just created.

"Genie, where's….."

"Whoa, looks like someone forgot to dress this morning." Genie blurted in his usual jolly self.

Jasmine wanted to get straight to the point.

"Genie, where did Aladdin go?" she asked flapping the letter in her hand.

Genie took the letter, created a pair of glasses on his eyes and mumbled the letter out loud.

"Bla bla bla have to leave, bla bla genie will explain…. WHAT?"

Jasmine stood in front of him with her hands on her hips. Genie knew that it wouldn't be a great idea to mess with her.

"Thanks Al, leave it up to me to tell." He thought to himself.

"Genie!" Jasmine said sternly.

"Where is Aladdin?"

"Ok," Genie sighed. He directed her over to the fountain and cautioned her to sit down.

Genie tensed up and took along pause, in a failed attempt to forget why he was there.

Suddenly Jasmine shouted at him.

"GENIE!"

"Alright," he blurted. "Aladdin went to hide Jafar's lamp somewhere no-one can find it!" He cringed when he said it, and then opened one eye to see the rage from Jasmine, but surprisingly, she sat on the edge of the fountain and looked down at the ground.

"Er, Jas, you er, alright there?" Genie asked.

"I thought we wanted to keep the lamp here, to keep an eye on it?" she stated, still looking down.

"Well, you know Al, he just wants to keep you safe, and with the likes of Iago flying around we never know what could happen." Genie tried to reassure her, but she didn't want to know.

"And anyway, you can trust Al to find a place as far away from Agrabah, right, and he'll be back in no time." He said, placing a hand on Jasmine's shoulder.

She looked at him and attempted a small smile. Then she walked off towards the palace, leaving Genie by himself with Rajah chewing at his meat.

The whole day, Jasmine stayed in her chambers, left to her thoughts. What if Aladdin was in danger? What if someone was looking the lamp? Why wouldn't he tell her where he was going?

The Sultan and Genie waited in the throne room, wondering whether Jasmine was feeling ok.

"Genie?" stammered the Sultan, "you wouldn't mind, well, going to check on her would you? It's just, your good at making her smile and she needs some company that's well, will keep her mind off Aladdin."

"Yes sir!" Genie replied, in an orderly fashion, as he about turned and marched towards Jasmine's chambers.

He knocked on the door, opened it and slowly peeked in to see whether Jasmine was decent.

She was standing on her balcony looking out at the moon. She had changed into her blue outfit and headband when Genie crept up beside her.

"Ah beautiful night isn't it?" he said as he tried to start a conversation, but Jasmine said nothing in return.

"Ok, Ok I got one, knock knock….." but Jasmine didn't play along.

"Aright then," Genie smirked, "Pull my finger" he said as he held out his finger towards her, but Jasmine didn't even flinch. He dropped his smile and leaned over the balcony, looking at the moon along with her.

After about ten minutes to themselves, Jasmine finally spoke.

"It's just…why would he leave so suddenly and not tell me. I could have gone and helped him."

"Hey now," Genie butted in. "You know Al's a big boy, he can take care of himself. Anyway, he left me to take care of you and that's what I'm going to do. We can sit up all night drinking hot chocolate and playing scrabble now!"

Jasmine gave out a small giggle.

Genie was always so bouncy, he knew exactly how to make things better.

"But what if he gets hurt?" she cried.

Then Genie raised her head towards him and looked straight at her. Her bright eyes were filled with tears.

"Hey, Al will be fine. I promise." He said reassuringly.

Jasmine smiled sadly and gave Genie a hug.

As he returned the hug, Jasmine spotted something out of the corner of her eye.

There was smoke rising from just outside the city walls.

She let go of Genie and looked towards it.

"What is that?" she asked.

Genie looked towards her then towards the smoke.

"I'm not so sure, maybe I should go check it out." He transformed into a Sherlock Holmes costume and flew towards the smoke, calling back to Jasmine, Don't worry! I won't be long!"

Jasmine just smiled and looked towards the moon again. It was the only thing that made her feel free, apart from Aladdin.

Ok, so this is my first story and I really hope you give me a few tips or comments. This section is very boring cause it's just an intro, but I promise, the next chapter will have more action, but while you're waiting, have a guess at what's going on with the smoke!!
