Chapter 2
Ursula's POV
I watched him swimming away crying with that annoying yellow fish following. I took note of my dear nephew's physique and think "He'd look just like me if his skin was a bit more grey and his hair black with those pesky streaks of silver."
I hated those two long streaks on either side of my face. They showed the stress my brother's spell did to me.
He turned my fin into tentacles of an octopus, banished me to a corner of the sea only me and my underlings Flotsam and Jetsam dare swim. Sure there will be occasional fat merman or mermaid who wants to be thin and fit or wants to find love.
When they couldn't pay, I would suck their life out of them keeping up my young appearance rather than look old and grey like my brother.
And I think my nephew may be visiting me soon.
I sat in front of my pot which I enchanted to keep watch on Aaron. I kept it in the darkest cave I could find. The rocks there were pitch black and sometimes formed a throne looking formation.
Flotsam and Jetsam sat on either side of me watching Aaron.
"Is it time your excellence?" Flotsam, who had a slightly lighter green tint than Jetsam, said.
"No my sweet, we must wait for the precise moment. He wants to be a human, but there isn't enough. We need something strong." I said stroking them both with my tentacles.
"You mean love?" Jetsam said, his one yellow eye shining.
I laugh "More like, teenage hormones." The image on my pot changes to show the young Prince Eric talking to his advisor and guardian Grimbsby.
"When we get the child, we will get Triton and I shall ascend to the throne," I had poisoned my three sisters and older brother and personally strangled my twin brother so I could ascend to the throne. However, all I got was a magic shell and the Bermuda Triangle where no fish lived. My younger brother was given the crown and the trident because father loved him best.
But I will get my crown and trident if it's the last thing I do. And it will all start when my nephew and this human prince would meet.
The three of us laughed manically as storm clouds started to roll in.
