Chapter 3- Telling The Truth
They rushed back as fast as they could swim to the palace to to tell King Triton of the bad news. when they got back to the castle they found King Triton in the throne room. They went up to him and Ariel said, "Daddy, we are cursed by Morgana and if we don't give her the trident then we will stay cursed forever."
"Well what did she curse you with?" asked King Triton.
"We don't know what we have been cursed with. Morgana said we will find out sooner or later." said Eric.
"I think until we can find out what you are cursed with and find Morgana, I want you two to stay on land." said King Triton.
"But daddy." said Ariel.
"No Ariel. I think your father is right. We don't want anything else to happen. "
"Your right Eric. Daddy please promise me you will not hand over the trident."
"I promise Ariel." And with that Eric, Ariel and King Triton swam up to the surface. When they got up to the surface Eric and Ariel went up onto the beach as much as they could and then King Triton blasted them with the trident, but they did not turn back.
King Triton said, "I am so sorry, but I can't change you back."
"What do you mean daddy?"
"Wait a minute! This must be the curse that Morgana put on us. Oh Ariel sweety don't get upset we will figure it all out. Now lets go back before anyone comes around." said Eric.
So they swam back to the kingdom to think of what to do, but Eric already had a plan in mind of what to do. It would be a hard decision that Eric will have to make but it will be the only to save their lives and keep them together.
