Chapter 4
The Deal and Trap
Isabella hummed as she swam through the palace.
"Hey, princess!" someone shouted. Isabella turned around and saw Flerb heading this way. Isabella smiled.
"I want to show you something!" Flerb said excitedly. Flerb showed her to her secret room in Ariel's hidden collection.
"What's this…" she ceased immediately when she saw the statue of Phineas.
"Oh… oh my!" Isabella said.
"My goodness! Did you drag this statue all the way here… for me?" Isabella asked almost breathlessly. Flerb nodded. Isabella hugged him and said, "Thank you! Thank ever so much!"
"It was supposed to be a gift for Prince Phineas!" Flerb said. Isabella admired it. When she looked into the statue's eyes, she knew she had to be with him.
"Flerb, can you please go outside?" Isabella asked. Flerb nodded and showed himself to the door.
"Maybe my father can-!" she turned around and in her face was Thor.
"You want to be together with this princey prince, fellow, do you?" Thor asked. Isabella gulped nervously.
"How long have you been watching me?" Isabella asked.
"For the longest time. So… you want to be with this human?" Thor asked. Isabella nodded.
"Come to Dursula's Domain and get your wish fulfilled!" Thor said. Isabella shook her head no.
"What would your father say if you asked him?" Thor said; hiding a wicked smile. Isabella thought of what her father would say. She then realized that her father would scold her for touching a human.
"I'll come. But he must promise not to hurt me!" Isabella said, unsure if she should fully trust one of these sea dragons. She followed the sea dragon to Dursula's Domain. She was slightly persistent when she got to the entrance.
"Come one in, pretty princess!" Dursula said. Isabella closed her eyes and went inside.
"Ah… so… you have a thing with this Prince… what's his name… Clineas?" Dursula said.
"Ph-Ph-Phineas!" Isabella said.
"Ah yes, Phineas!" Dursula said. He swam towards the young princess and stopped in her face.
"Now. For the deal. I'll make you an elixir that will transform you into a human girl for three days! Now for the important part! Before the sun sets on the third day, you've got to get dear old Phineas to fall in love with you; in other words, he's got to kiss you! Not just a simple smooch on the cheek or lip to lip… but the kiss of true love! If he does kiss you before the sun sets on the third day, you will remain human permanently! If not, you'll turn back into a mermaid and… what's that other small detail… I'm forgetting one tiny detail… oh yeah! You belong to… ME! As a prisoner!" Dursula said. Isabella gasped in horror of the thought of being a prisoner to the sea wizard. She signed the contract. Isabella swiftly drank the elixir. She became a human.
"Good job boys! Now go make sure she does NOT get the kiss from the prince! The plan is working… so far…!" Dursula said.
