There she was in her room with tears in her eyes. Ariel had just woke up from a dream. What a marvelous and terrifying dream it sunny day all the merpeople from, Atlantica decided to go up to the surface to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their beloved King Triton & Queen Athena. It was so exciting everyone was so happy and it was cheerful music and laughter was in the air. Siting upon some rocks a little distance away from the crowds of merfolk the King had a present for his beautiful wife. As he gave her his gift there was little sounds of giggles coming from behide some rocks. Triton recalled the familiar giggles and knew it was his seven daughters spying on him so he decided to play along and pretend they weren't there. The Queen caught on and did the same. She began to open her gift as if nothing had happened. When she opened her gift she gasped in shock and hugged her husband. She was amazed with what her husband gave her. It a musical box the contained minture statues of the King & Queen and their song. The Queen began to kiss her husband when the little giggles started again. So this time Triton decided to give a surprise to his daughters. He snuck into the water and quitely went behide the rock where they where. Behide some rocks you could hear seven little girls giggle,laugh and screams as their father ticked, and picked them up and tossed them up in the air. The royal family was having a great time but their fun was about to end. As it became little Ariel's turn to be thrown up she suddenly gasped looked horrified. When Triton saw his daughter's scared face he looked to where she was staring then he spotted the terrible thing. It was a human ship and just any human ship it was a pirate ship. As soon as the King saw it a merboy with a horn began to signal the others to seek shelter quickly. When the sound of the horn was heard there was dead silence for 5 seconds then everyone swam away as fast as possible. Triton's first reaction was to get his family save so he gathered his daughter and quickly swam them under the water. When he noticed his wife wasn't with them began to get worried. He quickly started to swim to the surface when he got there he saw his wife trying to gab her anniversary gift from a far rock. He tried to stop her but it was to late the boat came and crashed into a rock, the same rock Queen Athena was the sad part about this dream was it wasn't only a dream it was a mermory Ariel tried to forget. King Triton never saw his precious wife again and for this he hated all humans with a burning passion in his heart. After this nightmare that wasn't a nightmare she decide to go to her grotto(a secret place where only she and her friend Flounder know about).
When she arrived there she saw Flounder waiting on her. Ariel said in a very hushed sweet tone, "Couldn't sleep either ."
"Nope", said Flounder in a happy mood.
"Then what are you doing here this late",said Ariel with great curiosity in her friend.
"I have gift for you. It's for your collection", said Flounder happy to see a smile on his friends face.
"Lets go inside and find a place for it", said Ariel full with excitement.
