Chapter 1: How could you
Sora had been very depressed and always seeking out new things but since he saved the prince his mood had become improved. Everyone in the palace could see the changed mood of the prince. It was Cloud who especially noticed when Sora swam around and put a flower in his father's hair.
"Hi daddy! Hope you like that." Sora swam off and Cloud waited there looking confused. The girls that sang with Sora chuckled saying he had it bad. Cloud asked what he had bad and Namine chuckled.
"He's in love . . . it's so obvious." Cloud smiled at the idea of his son being in love with a merman or mermaid. Cloud looked at the flower his son gave him and smelled it and could feel the love flow from it. He told Leon of what he thought. Leon was excited that their youngest son was in love.
Sora swam with his fish friend flounder and Sebastian. Flounder had something to show him and Sebastian was skeptical. Sora followed him into his secret grotto and asked what the sudden rush was. Flounder show him the statue he found. Sora looked with amazement at the statue. He swamp to it and hugged it with love.
"Oh Flounder I love it!" Sora hung onto the statue and looked into the eyes of the statue of prince Riku. Sebastian was beyond shocked and horrified.
"If the Sea King ever found out he'd kill us!" Sora ignored him and Flounder told him he was paranoid. Sora was enamored with the statue and forgot about the time. He had to be back for the concert he had to put on. What Sebastian and the others didn't know was that he had changed his song to something he wrote. It was Sebastian that got him to go back when he noticed they were a few minutes late.
Sora and Sebastian entered the concert hall and got ready for the big concert. All around the seas came to see Prince Sora sing. Cloud and Leon had their royal spots and all of the other people waited for the show to begin.
Sebastian got out and started his announcements and thanked everyone for coming on this day to see the concert. The people all waited with anticipation. The groups and other solo performers went and as the people listened they awaited for the prince to go on. It was his first time and they were excited.
"Here is our final performance and dearest prince, Sora! He'll be singing under the sea." Sora came out and waved to the people as they applauded. "Actually Sebastian I have changed my song to something I wrote. The music is worked out so here we go everybody." Sebastian twitched and nodded as he watched the lights dim in the concert hall. A single spot light shined down on Sora. He opened his eyes slowly and the light made his already beautiful sapphire eyes sparkle. The music started and Sora began.
My friends say I'm a fool to think
That you're the one for me
I guess I'm just a sucker for love
'Cuz honestly the truth is that
You know I'm never leavin'
'Cuz you're my angel sent from above
Baby you can do no wrong
My money is yours
Give you little more because I love ya, love ya
With me, girl, is where you belong
Just stay right here
I promise my dear I'll put nothin above ya. above ya
Love me, Love me
Say that you love me
Fool me, Fool me
Oh how you do me
Kiss me, Kiss me
Say that you miss me
Tell me what I wanna hear
Tell me you (love me)
Love me, Love me
Say that you love me
Fool me, Fool me
Oh how you do me
Kiss me, Kiss me
Say that you miss me
Tell me what I wanna hear
Tell me u love me
The people were entranced by his singing and movements. Cloud and Leon looked at each other knowing this song had to do with someone he loved. Sebastian knew who and he paled instantly. The king would want to know who and he would be crab dinner for sure.
People try to tell me
But I still refuse to listen
Cuz they don't get to spend time with you
A minute with you is worth more than
A thousand days without your love, oh your love
Baby you can do no wrong
My money is yours
Give you little more because I love ya, love ya
With me, girl, is where you belong
Sebastian wanted to die at the thought that the king would confront him later about this all. If he told the truth Sora would hate him and if he lied the king would kill him.
Just stay right here
I promise my dear I'll put nothin above ya. above ya
Love me, Love me
Say that you love me
Fool me, Fool me
Oh how you do me
Kiss me , kiss me
Say that u miss me
Tell me what I wanna hear
Tell me you love me.
Love me, Love me
Say that you love me
Fool me, Fool me
Oh how you do me
Kiss me , kiss me
Say that u miss me
Tell me what I wanna hear
Tell me you love me.
My heart is blind but I don't care
'Cuz when I'm with you everything has disappeared
And every time I hold you near
I never wanna let you go, oh
Love me, Love me
Say that you love me
Fool me, Fool me
Oh how you do me
Kiss me , kiss me
Say that u miss me
Tell me what I wanna hear
Tell me you love me.
Love me, Love me
Say that you love me
Fool me, Fool me
Oh how you do me
Kiss me , kiss me
Say that u miss me
Tell me what I wanna hear
Tell me you love me
Sora finished and the people applauded him. Sora smiled and thanked everyone before leaving the stage. Sebastian followed Sora and pinched him with his claws. Sora yelped and asked what the hell was wrong with him.
"Your father will want to know what that was about. What the FUCK am I suppose to tell him!?" Sora shrugged and on his way out bumped into his father.
"Oh hi daddy, hope you like the concert but I gotta go. Important stuff." Sora hugged him and left the room. Sebastian excused himself before he could be questioned but that is what made Cloud suspicious.
Sora went to his grotto and unknown to him he was being watched by Zexion. He was laughing, he knew that inspiration spell would be perfect to use on the boy. That song will have definitely made his father suspicious.
"What a voice, that will be a wonderful addition to my collection." Zexion watched as a servant was sent after the little crab. Everything was happening to his plan.
Sebastian was scared about what the king wanted. He knew it had to do with Sora's behavior. He walked in and went to the king. He asked what he needed help with and Cloud mentioned that Sora had been acting differently and that it seemed like he was in love. Sebastian was shaking uncontrollably. He knew he was caught.
"I know what's going on Sebastian." Sebastian broke down into tears.
"I tried to stop him! I told him loving a human would be dangerous but he never listens." Cloud erupted into anger, "What about HUMANS?!" Sebastian was surprised. "Oh . . . . nothing . . ." Cloud stormed out of the palace to look for Sora.
Sora embraced the statue and held onto it. "Oh Riku . . . what you want to kiss me?" Sora kissed the statue. "Of course I'll marry you."
"You'll do what?!" Sora turned around. "Daddy . . . what are you doing here?"
"It's true you are consorting with humans . . . and you saved one?" Sora nodded. Cloud shook his head. "They're dangerous SORA!" Sora yelled that they were good and that he loved Riku. Cloud gathered power into his trident. "One way or another I will get through to you!" Sora shouted as Cloud started destroying everything around him. Everything was nothing but dust and Cloud left after hearing his son cry and ask how he could do this to him.
After a while of crying he left and waited outside his grotto and two mermen came up to him. It was Marluxia and Axel and they told him how sad he looked and that they knew a way to make him happy. He asked how and they told him of Zexion. Sora questioned it knowing he was evil. They told him Zexion changed and he only does good now. They insisted and it was only when Flounder and Sebastian tried to stop him that he agreed to go. They took him to Zexion and Sora waited outside the door. Zexion turned around looking as impressive and young as ever. His beauty was intoxicating to Sora and made him want to come closer.
"Come in. Come in, my child. We mustn't lurk in doorways - it's rude. One MIGHT question your upbringing. . . . Now, then. You're here because you have a thing for this human. This, er, prince fellow. Not that I blame you - he is quite a catch, isn't he? Well, angel fish, the solution to your problem is simple. The only way to get what you want - is to become a human yourself." Sora eagerly asked if he could do that. Zexion knew it was time to get him with a special song.
"My dear, sweet child. That's what I do - it's what I live for. To help unfortunate merfolk - like yourself. Poor souls with no one else to turn to.
I admit that in the past I've been a nasty
They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch
But you'll find that nowadays
I've mended all my ways
Repented, seen the light and made a switch
True? Yes
And I fortunately know a little magic
It's a talent that I always have possessed
And here lately, please don't laugh
I use it on behalf
Of the miserable, lonely and depressed
(Pathetic)" Marluxia and Axel chuckled when Zexion directed pathetic to them.
"Poor unfortunate souls
In pain
In need
This one longing to be thinner
That one wants to get the girl
And do I help them?
Yes, indeed
Those poor unfortunate souls
So sad
So true
They come flocking to my cauldron
Crying, "Spells, Zexion please!"
And I help them?
Yes, I do
Now it's happened once or twice
Someone couldn't pay the price
And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals
Yes, I've had the odd complaint
But on the whole I've been a saint
To those poor unfortunate souls" Zexion sung his voice enticing Sora. "Now, here's the deal. I will make you a potion that will turn you into a human for three days. Got that? Three days." Zexion pulled Sora closer by putting his arm around. "Now listen, this is important. Before the sun sets on the third day, you've got to get dear ol' princey to fall in love with you. That is, he's got to kiss you. Not just any kiss - the kiss of true love. If he does kiss you before the sun sets on the third day, you'll remain human, permanently, but - if he doesn't, you turn back into a mermaid, and - you belong to me." Sebastian tried to protest but Marluxia and Axel silenced him.
"We have a deal?" Sora wasn't sure he muttered he wouldn't see his family ever again if he was human. Zexion chuckled and said he would have his man so what else is there. "Besides life is full of tough choices and also there is the subject of payment. After all you can't get something for nothing." Sora tried to say he had nothing but Zexion cut him off. "I don't want much . . . a token . . . a trifle really. What I want from you is your voice." Sora touched his throat. "My voice?" Zexion smiled. "That's right sweet cakes. No more talking, singing . . . zip." Sora questioned saying without his voice he wouldn't be able to get the attention of Riku.
"You'll have your looks! Your pretty face! And don't underestimate the importance of body language! Ha!" It was time for Zexion to finish the deal with the final part of the song. "The men up there don't like a lot of blabber
They think a boy who gossips is a bore
Yes, on land it's much preferred
For lovely's not to say a word
And after all, dear, what is idle prattle for?
Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation
True gentlemen avoid it when they can
But they dote and swoon and fawn
On a boy who's withdrawn
It's he who holds his tongue who gets his man
Come on, you poor unfortunate soul
Go ahead!
Make your choice!
I'm a very busy man
And I haven't got all day
It won't cost much" Riku appeared above the cauldron. "Just your voice!" Zexion shot through his face.
"You poor unfortunate soul
It's sad
But true
If you want to cross a bridge, my sweet
You've got to pay the toll
Take a gulp and take a breath
And go ahead and sign the scroll!
Marluxia, Axel now I've got him, boys
The boss is on a roll
This poor unfortunate soul." Sora signed the contract and Zexion made it disappear. He put his hands over his cauldron. "Paluga, sarruga, come winds of the Caspian Sea. Now rings us glossitis and max laryngitis, La voce to me! Now . . . sing!" Sora began to sing slowly. His throat glowed and so did Zexion's necklace. "KEEP SINGING!" Sora kept at it and his voice came out of his throat and flowed over to Zexion. The necklace took it and smoke erupted from the cauldron and Sora began to transform into a human. Zexion laughed histerically. "Swim . . . Swim . . . SWIM FOR YOUR LIFE! HA HA HA HA HA!" Flounder helped Sora go to the surface.
