Glad to see that this story is getting off to such a great start. :) You all are awesome! And now review responses!

Chloe: First off, congratulations on being the first reviewer! :D Here have a cookie. *hands Chloe a cookie* Anyway, yes Youtube is where I saw the Aladdin episode, though I did used to watch it when it aried on tv as well. As for which smurf episode I watched, well it wasn't exactly an "episode" it was the "Smurfs Christmas Carol." It came out last year when the Smurfs movie came out on DVD and you could buy the DVD and get the Smurfs Christmas Carol as a bonus prize, thingy. Anyway it was a really cute Christmas special and I highly recommend it. *Nervous smile* Heh, I know it's been awhile since I've updated A Spellbound Swan, I'm sorry about that. I've been concentrating on my other stories, but I promise SASS will be updated before the month's out.

Zinka17: Nice predictions! The first one's correct, Livy will get quite the rude surprise when she wakes up ;) for the second one however...Yes and no. Johan won't fall for the disguised Chlorohydris but well...you'll see later on in a Knight's Tale. Don't want any spoilers. ;) …...Just out of curiosity what made you guess that?

SuperAlex64: This is one of my favorite Aladdin episodes too! Glad your liking the story so far.

Johan Peewit and the Smurfs belong to Peyo

Jo belongs to CartoonCaster21

Livy belongs to me

Enjoy!

"I wonder where Livy's at?" Jo said the next morning. It was after breakfast and no one had seen hind nor hair of the green eyed girl.

"I dunno, I can't believe she missed breakfast." Peewit said stuffing the last bits of egg in his mouth before he followed after his two raven haired friends.

"I hope she hasn't fallen ill," Johan mused worriedly. "Come on. Let's check on her."

"I thought that that's what were were doing." Jo said as they started up the stairs. Johan rolled his eyes and the trio continued on in silence until the reached Livy's room.

"Yo Girly! Ya up yet?" Jo called loudly as she knocked on the door.

"Go away!" Livy's voice sounded from the other side, laced with fright and worry. The three looked at each other concerned.

"M'lady, it's us. Please open the door." Johan tried.

"I said go away! Please!" Livy croaked, her voice sounding like she was about to cry.

The squire frowned hard and then looked to his descendant. "Jo may I borrow your dagger?"

Jo just nodded and reached into her boot, pulling out her weapon of choice. Johan stuck the tip of the dagger into the keyhole and fiddled around with it until he heard a click sound. He handed the knife back to Jo and they all went in.

"Livy what's-HOLY SMURF!"

"MOMMA!" Peewit yelped in horror as he jumped into Jo arm's Scooby-Doo style. Both Jo and Johan's jaws were practically on the ground as they stared at Livy sitting on her bed looking miserable. She looked normal from the waist up, but starting from the waist down, instead of a pair of legs was a giant, green, black striped, scaly serpent's tail.

"Help me." Livy whimpered pathetically.

"What the...what the feather's happened to you?!" Jo asked dumbstruck.

"Who did this to you?" Johan demanded in shock.

"I-I don't know!" Livy cried. "I-I just woke up like this!"

"Well did you do something different yesterday than what you normally would?" Peewit asked as he stared at her tail. He gingerly lifted up a finger and poked it a few times until Livy yanked it away.

"No." She answered curling her tail under her. "No I didn't. I..." Livy trailed off as her eye's fell on the lotion bottle that she left on her nightstand. Her brows furrowed together in anger as she put two and two together.

"I know what did this. This lotion! That woman from the market place gave me this lotion and now look what it's done!" she exclaimed holding up the bottle and then gesturing to herself.

Johan took the bottle in his hand and examined it before turning to Jo. "Jo, you was with Livy yesterday, did you see the woman?"

"Yeah." Jo nodded.

"We'll go to the market and find this knave and demand her to give us a cure." Johan announced.

"Don't worry Girly. We'll get you back to normal." Jo promised as she and the boys ran out to the stables.

"I hope so." Livy said quietly as she looked down at her tail.

"What do you mean you couldn't find her?!" Livy yelled an hour later once her friends had returned.

"We've searched every corner of the entire market M'lady, and she was nowhere to be found." Johan explained sadly.

"No one seen her either." Peewit added.

Livy collapsed back onto her bed distraught. "What'll I do?" she sobbed about ready to cry.

Johan went over and sat down next to her on the bed, wrapping his arms around her. "We'll find a cure somehow." he reassured her.

"But what if there isn't one?" Livy sobbed looked at her friends with tear filled eyes.

"Now don't go thinking like that." Jo said putting a reassuring hand on Livy's shoulder. "It ain't over till the fat Peewit sings."

"Hey!"

"No offence."

"Why don't we go to Enchanter Homnibus? He's bound to know of a cure." Johan said. Without much choice it was decided and the four friends started off to the stables. To hide her tail, Jo Peewit and Johan surrounded Livy and she wore her cloak trying to hide as much of it as they could. All was going well till they reached the stables.

"NEIGH!" Brownie whinnied in fright rearing up on her hind legs upon seeing her master.

"Brownie, no it's ok. It's ok. It's me." Livy soothed grabbing the reins and pulling the mare down. She gently stroked her nose and spoke to her in a soothing voice. "It's alright. It's alright."

Brownie was breathing heavily and snorted a few times but managed to calm down after a few minutes.

"That's a good girl." Livy cooed and then slithered over to the side. With much work Livy somehow managed to haul herself onto Brownie's saddle.

"Uh, maybe it would be best if you rode behind me on Bayard, Livy." Johan spoke.

"Nonsense Johan. I got this." Livy reassured...only to slide off the saddle a few seconds later. "On second thought maybe that's not a bad idea."

Once Livy got behind Johan on Bayard the four were off to see the wizard. (AN: The wonderful wizard of Oz! XD I'm sorry, couldn't resist)

Needless to say, Homnibus was quite shocked when he saw his apprentice's appearance, but once he got over that he hit the books. Specifically his big book of mythical monsters.

"Hmm," the wizard mused as he flipped through the book. "Werewolves, vampires, banchees, Ah! Here we are!"

"What's it say?" Peewit asked standing on a chair leaning over to peek at the pages. Homnibus shooed the boy away and lifted up the book. "Oh my."

"Oh my? What oh my?" Livy asked slightly paniced. "What's wrong with me?!"

"It appears Livy that you are turning into a Naga." Homnibus answered.

"Oh no! Not a Naga! Anything but a Naga!...What's a Naga?" Jo asked.

"A Naga is a mythical creature that is half man, half serpent." Homnibus explained.

"S-S-S-Serpent? As in snake?!" Peewit squeaked.

"Indeed." the wizard confirmed and pointed to the picture of the half man half snake like creature. His whole entire body was covered in scales and he had a snake's hood, like a cobra. The Naga still had his arms but the human qualities pretty much stopped there.

"Oooh!" Peewit moaned as he fainted and fell off the chair he was standing on.

"What's the cure?" Johan asked, looking at the wizard with a determined expression.

"There is only one cure I'm afraid and the journey is long and dangerous."

"I don't care! If it means that Livy will get well again then so be it." the squire nodded affirmitively.

"Figured as much." the old wizard mumbled under his breath before flipping the page. "In order to be restored back to human, Livy must eat of the fruit from The Tree of Renewal."

"Sounds easy enough." Jo chirped as Peewit finally came too.

"Wh-what'd I miss?" the jester groaned.

"Oh nothing, Livy just has to eat some fruit from a tree but the journey to get there is dangerous and death defying." Jo explained smirking.

"Oooh!" Peewit moaned as he passed out again.

Livy felt a sort of tingly sensation and let out a small yelp as she looked down and saw that more scales were climbing up higher on her abdomen. She felt a hand grab hers and Johan looked her in the eyes.

"I know your worried, but I swear on my love for you that I will get you cured." Johan reassured wrapping her in a hug. Livy just shut her eyes and took comfort in the feeling that her beloved was holding her.

A few moments later when Peewit regained consciousness, the four set out on their journey armed only with water, a little bit of food and money, their weapons, a map and hope.

Meanwhile Chlorohydris was watching the whole scene through her crystal ball.

"Go on your little quest you fools." she chuckled darkly. "Your love will be no match for the pitfalls ahead. You will never make it to the tree of renewal."

Again another short chapter, but cliffhangers usually win out against chapter length for me. XP

Oh and FYI, a Naga is a real mythical creature. (There's an oxymoron for ya) They originated in India and are specifically found in the Hinduism and Buddhism religions. To learn more look them up on wikipedia :P

See ya'll next chapter. Until then leave a review! Ta ta!
