The Sun And The Sea

Like all other breaks, it makes you think you would get all the time in the world for anything but before you know your back inside the classroom. There was only three weeks left of the summer, Ariel stared out at the sparkling blue ocean as it flowed back and fourth on the beach. She had a great vacation with her dad and sisters but she couldn't wait to go back to school so she can see my friends again. She wondered what how they had spended their summer?

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

"The beach?" Mulan mumbled in her usual half asleep mood, as she sloped the oatty porridge in her mouth. "Mulan eat properly or hang up!" Fa Li snapped and much to her annoyance Mulan rubbed off the remains of the porridge from her face. "Mulan haven't I taught you anything? Don't clean your face with your hand!" Fa Li snapped again but got the same response. She sighed in frustration as she watched her awkward daughter wonder off from the dinning room, "I don't know what I'm going to do with her," she muttered. "You know she could be worse," Grandma Fa said both Fa Zhou and Fa Li stared at the elderly woman as if she had gone mad. "I mean it's not like she's gotten into drugs or possibly worse Justin Beiber," she pointed out.

Mulan paced around the house going in and out of rooms as she talked to Jasmin on the phone. "How could you forget? we've planned this for weeks" Jasmin said still suprised that Mulan would have forgotten. "So you tell me this now?" Mulan sighed as she had no idea how she was going to get there, "I'll send Belle to pick you up it won't take long and it's only for weekend we're visting Ariel."

"Right see you there," Mulan said then entered her room to pack her things when Mushu and Crik-kee crept in curiously. "What was that about?" Mushu asked as he climbed up on her bed "I forgot I was going to the beach with my friends today," Mulan sighed already exhausted. "Is Shang one of those friends?" Mushu smirked cheekily, "shut up" Mulan glared at her gaurdian ever since she had met Shang he always teased her about him.

"Who are you talking to Mulan?"

She groaned when she heard her mom's voice they still hadn't gotten over the argument from when Mulan had cutted her hair, "just Jasmin she was reminding me that we're supposed to be visting Ariel today" Mulan replied. "How long are you going to be?" Fa Li asked, "two days Belle's going to be coming over to pick me up" Mulan told her, "two days? you said you was just visting Ariel" Fa Li stared at her. "Yeah at the beach," Mulan sighed it was one of those times where her mom would get on her nervs by asking a load of questions. "What beach? there's no sea around here" Fa Li once again asked, "it's not really far" Mulan shrugged "where are you going?" Fa Li glared suspiously, Mulan sighed as she zipped up her bag. "Somewhere in Californa. . . moma I'll be fine," Mulan groaned she hated it when her mom pulled the face, "where are you going?"

"I dunno moma but it's only for the weekend," Mulan told her "hmm. . . . well keep your phone on you I'll be ringing you up" Fa Li handed Mulan her old Nokia, "I know moma once again I'll be fine, don't worry" Mulan sighed as she finshed off her packing.

Belle carefully parked her bike by the start gate before she walked towards the house, "here goes nothing," she sighed then knocked the door and waited for Mulan to come out, only to find Fa Zhou. "Is Mulan home?" Belle asked nervously as he stared back at her, "I'm Belle Mulan's friend from school" Belle tried again this can't be the wrong house it's the exact address where I banged into Mulan on her first day. Maybe he doesn't understand English yet, "Mulan Belle's here!" Fa Zhou turned around as he called out to his daughter, "coming papa!" Mulan panted as if she had just ran half a marathon.

"Are you ready Mulan?" Belle asked she still felt nervous from meeting Fa Zhou, "as I'll ever be" Mulan laughed slightly, Belle glanced at her watch and realized how late they were. "Ah Mulan it's getting late we have to hurry!" Belle rushed to her bike while Mulan ran after her all the way to the train station.

Many hours later they finally arrived at the beach it started off as a good day. . . .

"Mulan is that you?" Ariel asked as she walked up to her a little confused, "yeah we just came by to see you" Mulan shrugged, "what happened to your hair? you had it so lush before!" Ariel exclaimed clearly didn't like the new change in her friend's hair. "A kid threw gum at me while I was in Beijing, I tried to pull it out but it wouldn't budge so I just cut it all off" Mulan said carelessly.

"Here Ariel the breeze is amazing up here come on up!" Adella, Ariel's fourth oldest sister called out to her from high above a tall cliff. "It's dangerous up there be careful!" Attina, the oldest of the Water sisters, warned them "we're always careful sis we're not kids anymore!" Ariel said as she climbed up the cliff along with Mulan, "when you go to college that's when you stop being a kid!" Attina laughed as she laid down on the soft sand.

Ariel, Mulan, Adella, Arista, Adrina, Aquata, Alana and Jasmine sat comfortably at the cliff top as the cool wind blowed through their hair while they watched everyone hang around together on the sand below. "Wow a jack pot of chicks aren't we lucky?" a male voice came from behind the girls, at first they thought it was Gaston but when they turned around they saw it wasn't him in fact it wasn't any guy they knew.

"Go away," Jasmine hissed "ooh I like them fiesty!" one of the other guys laughed there was about five of them all together, all of them were strangers. They were like a pack of hyenas, Jasmine tried to keep herself as far as possible from them as one tried to grab at her thin waist, "don't be scared babe we just want to show you girls a good time" the second guy smirked at her. "You can't be here this is a private beach!" Ariel tried to tell them but non of them listened, "ah do I have to do everything around here?" Mushu muttered under his breath as he jumped out of Mulan's hood but before he could of gotten anywhere near the strange boys Mulan decided to take matters into her own hands. She threw a bunch of angry crabs at them while the girls made a run for it but Mulan couldn't of ran away fast enough, the leader of the gang grabbed Mulan by her hood and dragged her to the edge of the cliff.

"Your going down freak!" he snapped now as he pushed her over the cliff edge, "Shang help!" Ariel cried when he looked up his heart skipped a beat as Mulan dropped into the sea before Shang could of started to run. "Mulan!" he screamed as he dived into the water himself, he tried to feel for Mulan since he couldn't see her, Shang hoped he would find her quick as he wasn't sure he could hold his breath much longer. When he finally found her, he lifted her into his strong arms and carried her back to the shore.

"Are you guys okay?" Hercules asked "we took their I.D cards and told them to leave," Attina said in a serious tone "a doctor will be coming over in a minute," just then Mulan awoke as she struggled out of Shang's arms "I don't need a doctor I'm fine." There was a moment of silence as the group stared at the frustrated look on Shang's face, "what did you think you were doing?" he hissed. "I had to do something Shang, they wouldn't go away!" Mulan barked "that's no excuse you idiot! Don't forget your a girl!" Shang yelled. "I know I'm a girl but that's not the point Shang, I was there I had to do-" Mulan shouted back until she got cut off, "risk your life? get yourself killed! How does that help anybody?"
