Chapter Seven:
The next five days were pretty quiet. Which I was loving. I love going on all the crazy adventures with my brother and family, but sometimes a girl needed a break. Especially a girl who's two months and three weeks pregnant. However, since it's been quiet, I knew something was going to happen soon. It never stayed quiet for long here.
Currently I was walking through the marketplace with Jasmine and Iago. We did that a lot. But fresh air was good for me though. Merchants from all around us were trying to get us to buy their items.
"Clothing woven from finest silk!"
"Fish! We fry it, you buy it!"
W ignored their calls though and continued to walk through the city. Eventually Jasmine found something that caught her eye. She pulled me over to look at it. The two men behind the stall looked kind of familiar and kind of gave off a bad vibe.
"Oh, what are these?" Jasmine asked curiously. I looked over the ash that they were selling and felt suspicious.
"A more efficient type of fuel madam." The tall one started. The shorter one added in a high pitched voice, "Burns faster, hotter, cheaper!"
"The nights have been so cold, and firewood is expensive. I've been looking for something I could do for the people of Agrabah. I could buy all the powder and give it to to poor!" Jasmine exclaimed in excitement.
I smiled and nodded in agreement. "Yeah, Aladdin and I would've killed for this stuff back in our street rat days." I said.
"The… poor?"The short man squeaked in disappointed. I gave him a strange look. Why would he care? "We could even use some for the palace!"Jasmine exclaimed happy with her idea.
"The palace! Ooh!"The shorty squeaked again in approval. My suspicion increased at that comment. However, Jasmine and Iago both didn't looked phased and Jasmine looked excited. "I'll take all of them!

After Jasmine bought all the powder from the suspicious merchants, she had the guards carry the baskets that contained the powder into the palace. Jasmine and I were following them when we heard our names being called.
"Jasmine, Kendra we got great news!" I heard my brother shout. I turned around to see Aladdin and Genie running towards us.
Well, Aladdin was running, Genie was flying. "We found an underground spring in the desert!" Genie finished. They both looked and sounded excited.
A"If we can tap the water we can set up our own oasis!" Aladdin grinned as Rasoul picked up another basket. "Uh What's going on?"
"Kendra and I found this in the Marketplace. It's a special fuel that burns better than wood." Jasmine explained as Abu took a container of powder and placed it in his vest. I shot him a long, which he returned with a sheepish smile.
"No kidding?"Aladdin asked at the same time Genie asked, "You want to hear how we found the water?"
"This could be something really great for the city!" Jasmine ignored Genie and answered Aladdin with a smile. I looked over at Genie expectantly as he started his tale.
"I turned into a dousing rod."Genie said as he turned his face into a dousing rod. Aladdin, not listening, examined the container. "How do you know it works?"
"Well— Why wouldn't it?" Jasmine asked, but I could tell the question to her by surprise. "Suddenly, I started to shake!" Genie was saying as Aladdin asked, "How hot does this stuff burn? It could be dangerous."
"The merchant said it was safe." Jasmine shrugged.
"Suddenly, I jerked to the side!"
"I think we should try this stuff before you hand it out." Aladdin told her cautiously. Jasmine, however, took it the wrong way. "And I think you're jealous!"
"What?" Aladdin asked in confusion. I face palmed. "Then I shot off!" Genie exclaimed as he flew around the throne room. "Homing in on the nearest water!" Abu took cover as Genie flew out of the palace.
"Why would I be jealous?"Aladdin asked, still confused and not phased by Genie's sudden exit. I however briefly wondered if he was alright. Then I wondered if there was a way I could sneak out cause I knew there was about to be a fight.
"You're jealous because I found this great powder, and all you found was water! I can't believe you'd be so petty!" Jasmine exclaimed in anger. I took a step back and decided it would be best to leave now.
"I'm gonna go check on Genie."I told the glaring couple before turning around and running out of the palace in the direction Genie had flown. I found him outside the palace with his upper body in the Palace fountain while his lower body was kicking out.
I ran over and pulled him out of the water. "Are you alright, Genie?" I asked him in concern. He looked at me dazed. "And that's the story of how we found the water. Next week I'll tell you about "Goldilocks and the Three Excruciating Head Impacts.""

After Jasmine and Aladdin's little fight, Jasmine kicked Aladdin out of the castle for the night. I would've gone with him, but I really wanted to stay in my nice comfy room in the palace. So, I did. Only to be waken in the middle of the night. "Kendra, Genie! Get up! We have an emergency!"Aladdin was saying as he shook me. I groaned in frustration.
"This better be important if your getting me up in the middle of the freaking night. Junior and I need our rest you know." I snapped irritably as I got up and shook Genie. He woke immediately yelling, "I didn't do it, it was the one eyed elephant!"
Aladdin and I both gave him a strange look and he just smiled sheepishly. Aladdin shook his head. "Come on you guys, we need to wake the others!" He said before running out of the room.
"I love my brother, but if he continues to wake me up in the middle of the night, I'm gonna kill him." I told my husband as I grabbed my robe and slipped on some shoes. Genie chuckled. "I have no doubt you will, my love. But for now, let's go see what he wants. It might be worth the midnight trip."
I snorted."Doubtful. But whatever it is, it better be damned important or Aladdin will have to sleep with one eye open for months." I grumbled.
"If it'll make you feel better, I'll carry you." He said and with out warning, he picked me up. I laughed in surprise and wrapped my arms tightly around his neck. "Alright then, take me to wherever Aladdin went, my dear!" I giggled and Genie quickly did as I had said.
Genie flew me straight to the room where everyone was waiting. Jasmine looked irritated, her arms were crossed and she glared at the wall. The Sultan was half asleep, barely able to keep himself up. In fact, only Aladdin, Abu, and Iago were the only one's really completely awake.
"You got us out of bed in the middle of the night because Abu had a bad dream?!"Jasmine exclaimed when we entered.
I raised an eyebrow when Genie set me down and looked over at Aladdin questionably."There was strange soot all over the place." Aladdin exclaimed and Abu chattered in agreement. "And I think this has something to do with it." Aladdin showed a container that had the powder we had gotten earlier.
"You just won't rest until you prove I was wrong!" Jasmine growled in anger. I rolled my eyes, somehow, I didn't believe Aladdin would do something like that.
"Jasmine this has nothing to do with you. I just think we should test it." Aladdin pleaded. He didn't want to hurt her or anything, but he really believed something was wrong.
"Do whatever you like." Jasmine huffed as Aladdin opened the container, went by the fire, and took out from the container a pinch of powder before looking back at her. "I'm waiting." She said as she crossed her arms impatiently. Aladdin put the pinch of powder into the fire and it rose, Abu and Iago took cover but only a cloud of smoke came out."Hmph! Are you satisfied? It worked just like it's supposed to."Jasmine said snidely.
"You just didn't use enough." Iago said before taking the container from Aladdin. Aladdin shouted his name as he threw the entire container into the fire. The fire rose and blasted him into the wall. "I had better ideas."
The fire died down and a smoke demon rose from the fire; the smoke demon wrapped its smoke substance around the Sultan and lifted him up way high out of our reach. Aladdin turned to Genie.
"Genie! Save the Sultan!" He explained in horror. Genie quickly saluted. "Righty-O! Drop the Sultan, buddy!"
The smoke demon took the jewel out of the Sultan's turban and literally dropped the Sultan. "Aah! Whooooaaahh!" The Sultan shouted as Carpet flew our and caught him.
"I didn't mean that literally." Genie exclaimed as the Smoke Demon tried to escape but Genie blocked his exit. The Smoke Demon covered Genie's face and they both fly around damaging the whole room. "Oh, look out! Hey! Stop it!"
"Why do things always get worse when he shows up?" Iago groaned. I turned and glared at the bird, although I couldn't help but to agree. Genie had a habit of blowing things way out of proportion.
Genie tried to pull the Smoke Demon away from his face as Aladdin took a urn and opened it. "Genie, in here!" He exclaimed.
Genie finally got the Smoke Demon away from his head and he slammed down the Smoke Demon into the urn and Aladdin closed it. "Whoo! What were you guys doing before I got here? This place is a wreck!"
"Are you okay, Father?" Jasmine asked. I turned to see a dazed and dizzy Sultan trying to stand up. "Uh— fine, fine my dear. Oh uh— r-remind me to paint my teeth tonight."
Jasmine caught him as he went to fall and dragged him over to where Aladdin is. She looked upset and angry at herself. "I'm responsible for this."
"Don't blame yourself, you meant well. These things happen." Aladdin tried to reassure Jasmine, but she couldn't be convinced. She looked at him sadly. "Aladdin, I knew you were right. But I was so excited about helping Agrabah, I guess I just didn't want to 's all my fault!" She cried as she hugged Aladdin.
"It's okay. It's okay." Aladdin kept trying to assure her, I walked over to Jasmine and put a hand on her shoulder. " Hey it's my fault to. I was with you when we bought them. I should've been more cautious as well." I promised. Jasmine smiled and pulled me into the hug as well.
"I hate to quash your emotional circus kids, but we got bigger problems right now!"Iago suddenly exclaimed, drawing our attention away. "Ooh! what are we gonna do, Al?" Genie asked curiously.
"We're gonna let it go." Aladdin said as he lifted the urn lid and allowed the smoke demon to escape. Iago watched with wide eyes. "We're in a generous mood today. How about lending me a hundred dinari?" He asked hopefully.
"No, we're gonna let it go and follow it." Aladdin explained. The smoke demon left the Palace, and Aladdin, Jasmine, Genie, Abu, Iago and myself flew after it on Carpet.
XxRebelWriterxX
We flew after the Smoke Demon. The night was cool and dry and the wind was cold. The ride seemed to go on for forever. I was almost ecstatic when the Smoke Demon reached a building and flew to the top to enter.
The Smoke Demon reaches a building, flies to the top and goes inside. We however, waited a minute to fly in.
"Alright guys, we don't know what we're about to face in there. So, be careful."Aladdin said, which earned him a bunch of "We know" looks.
Aladdin nodded and directed carpet towards the door. We broke through it easily and I wasn't surprised to see who the culprit was. Abis Mal. I should've know at the Market, it was so obvious. However, what did surprise me was a bunch of Smoke Demons that seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.
"Abis Mal! I Should have known!" Aladdin exclaimed as Carpet dropped us off on the ground. Jasmine glared furiously at Abis Mal.
"I can't believe I was taken in by these bandits! You… dogs!" Jasmine shouted as she speared Abis Mal into a pile of coins.
"Get her off me! Get this… goh— Get her off!" Abis Mal was shouting as I ran over and helped Jasmine. Hey, the idiot fooled me too, even is I had my suspicions.
Abu picked up his fez and placed it on top of his head as Jasmine shouted, "You used me to further your own twisted scheme!"
"Get the off me! Get them off me!" Abis Mal continued to shout but to no avail. Aladdin tried to ran over to us, but Haroud tripped him over with a jeweled wooden staff. Abu unraveled Haroud's turban and covered his face with it. Carpet picks up Abu and took him away from Haroud.
"Nice take! You really ought to guard it more carefully"Iago said as he took a coin and placed it in a bag. Genie picked Aladdin up.
"Stop Jasmine and Kendra before they strangles Abis Mal!" I heard Aladdin exclaimed as Abis Mal continued to struggle beneath us. Until he looked up."Look!"
I did and gasped in surprise. In front of me there was a huge Smoke Demon, who started to laugh. "I am Sootinai!" It shouted.
"Whoa! Not the Sootinai." Genie said as he flew over to me and pulled me off of Abis Mal. Abis Mal finally managed to push Jasmine off him."Sootinai, Lord of smoke, destroyer of cities, annihilator of worlds." The Demon yelled again.
"You know this guy? You should be a tad more picky choosing your friends." Iago said as he landed on my shoulder.
"All right! You work for me! And I order you to destroy them." Abis Mal exclaimed as he began to laugh evilly. "I take no orders from you, your greed was but a tool to release my power. And I have no more need of you."The Demon growled as he picked him up before he turned to Haroud. "Or of you!"
He picked up Haroud."Put me down!" Haroud shouted as he and Abis Mal both began straining and grunting to break free. "Put me down!" Abis Mal shouted.
Sootinai threw both of them to a wall and after they hit the ground head first, Sootinai began to try to break open the roof. Genie grabbed Aladdin, Jasmine, and I as Abu flew after on Carpet and Iago flew after us.
Sootinai finally broke open the roof. A piece of rubble knocked over a fire stand which set the building on fire. Abis Mal and Haroud tried to exit the building, but they get trapped under the rubble. Sootinai laughed evilly once he's out.
When the fire got closer to the rubble, Abis Mal and Haroud escaped the building while screaming. Sootinai broke the building into little pieces and grabbed the rubble that was on fire. "Burn more!" Sootinai shouted. He threw it at some of the buildings which also set on fire, Sootinai absorbed the smoke with his chest and he got bigger.
"What's happening?" Jasmine gasped in horror. I looked up at the creature in shock. I'd never seen somethings so, weird? "He's getting bigger!"
"He's feeding on the fire, the smoke increases his power!" Genie exclaimed in horror. I realized he was right as the smoke absorbed into his chest.
"You seem to know a lot about this guy. You know anything constructive?!" Iago exclaimed as Aladdin nodded in agreement and added, "Like how to stop him?"
"Don't worry, I can take this clown."Genie promised as he flew up to Sootinai and transformed into an eagle. "I fight for truth, justice, in the Agrabanian way!" Genie exclaimed as he started to blow wind against Sootinai who in turn turned into smoke and surrounded Genie in a smoke tornado while taking all the feathers off Genie. He then fell close to us and woke up dazed. "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!"
"Look out!"Aladdin exclaimed as Sootinai threw a fist at us. We ran inside a building before his fist hit right where we had recently been. We took a relieving breather before heading inside where it got darker. I grabbed Genie's hand as everything became too dark to see. "Sure is dark in here." Genie spoke fearfully and I squeezed his hand in reassurance.
"Yeah and there's a funny smell here, too. It smells kind of like…" Iago spoke as Genie lit a fire with his finger and the room lit up revealing barrels around the gang. "Lamp oil."Genie said nonchalantly.
"Lamp oil?!" Our entire group exclaimed in unison. Aladdin shoved Genie's elbow up so that his lit thumb was inside his mouth. "One spark and this place will blow like… like…" Aladdin hesitated as he tried to think of the right word.
"Like it's full of barrels of lamp oil!" Iago exclaimed as Genie looked at everyone sheepishly. "Sorry.."
That was when a barrel that was on fire came crashing into the room. We all screamed in horror at close to the barrels the barrel on fire was. Carpet swat at the fire and Abu threw wet sand on the fire, as does Aladdin and I. "We've got to put it out before it reaches a barrel!"Aladdin exclaimed as Jasmine also began to throw wet sand on the fire.
Iago was blowing on the fire. "Aah!" He screamed in horror.
Genie, as a firefighter with a fire hose, exclaimed. "Coming through! I'll handle this!" He turned it on but the fire was being sucked in the fire hose. "Hmm, must have had it on reverse."
"We've got to get these barrels out of here. There's enough oil to blow up half the city." Jasmine gasped as Aladdin nodded in agreement. "Not to mention how that thing would feed off the fire." He put in.
"Wait… didn't you say you found water out in the desert?" Jasmine asked, suddenly looking very hopeful. I smiled, also realizing her plan. "Oh, yes, you want to hear about it? I turned into a dousing rod…" Genie began, but Jasmine cut him off. "Not now, Genie!" She yelled as Genie transformed back to normal. "I'm going to need your help. I've got an idea."
"But what?"Aladdin asked but Jasmine just shook her head. "Trust me."

Jasmine had the guys led us to the canyon in the desert where the guys had found the water. When we arrived, Jasmine broke the cork with a rock and the lamp oil spilled out of the barrel. She rolled the barrel, creating a trail of oil from the stacked barrels to the rocks where Aladdin, Abu, Iago and I were. "Come on, Genie, let's go!"
Genie took the barrel and placed it on top of the stacked barrels, then all the barrels fell apart. "Uhh, neatness doesn't count does it?" Genie asked sheepishly.
Genie then used his magic and the barrels were stacked up again. After that, Jasmine shouted that it was showtime and Genie said "It is?! Oh I love a good show! What are we gonna see?" Genie asked as he took out a box of popcorn and shoved handfuls inside his mouth.
"Genie, she means light the fuse!" Aladdin said exasperated.
"Oh-ho-ho-ho! oh, right." Genie nodded as he tried to light a fire with his thumb."Ohh… must need a new flint. Well, I guess I'll just do it the easy way."
Genie took out a dragon, and the dragon breathed out fire to the starting point to the oil trail; the oil caught fire and started to head for the barrels. I started to laugh as Aladdin asked, "That was the easy way?"
The fire was almost close to the barrels. "Everybody get down!" Jasmine shouted and we all hid behind a rock. The barrels exploded and Aladdin and Jasmine covered their heads for the falling rocks.
I grinned as Sootinai began to head for the canyon and the people of Agrabah started to put out the fires. Sootinai got to the canyon. "It's working! He's heading this way!" Jasmine exclaimed happily.
"I hope you know that your doing." Aladdin stated in fear as I nodded in agreement. Jasmine said nothing as she watched the Smoke Demon approach intently. "Okay Genie, now!" She exclaimed when he was close enough.
"Roger!" Genie shouted as he flew above Sootinai and turned into a dousing rod. "Now to find that water again!" Sootinai saw him and it grabbed Genie's nose and laughed. "Unhand me, foul demon!" Genie exclaimed as Sootinai got ready to throw him. "This is not what I meant and you know it!" Sootinai threw him far but he came right back and went under Sootinai. "Banzai!"
Genie then turned into a jackhammer and drilled into the ground. He then pulled himself out. Water came out from under Sootinai, and as he started to dissolve we all started to cheer.
"Good going, Genie!" Jasmine and I shouted in excitement. I laughed as the monster began to disappear. "And good thinking, Jas!" Genie grinned before he winked at me. Then he turned into an umbrella to keep us all dry.
"Yeah Jasmine, you really saved the day. Hey, I wonder what happened to Abis Mal and Haroud?" Aladdin pondered aloud. I shrugged, not really caring whatsoever.
" Who cares. At least we've seen the last of Sootinai. We really don't need a repeat of all of that." I said and everyone nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, we really don't. I'm happy with that being the last we see of Sootinai."Jasmine spoke up happily.
"She frees a giant evil demon that burns down half of Agrabah, and nobody is even mad at her. And yet I'm probably gonna get smacked just for mentioning it!"Iago grumbled as Carpet kicked him in the back. "Oh!" Aladdin and Jasmine smiled at Carpet while I shook my head. "Life is so fair."Iago said as he fainted.

After that was done, Genie pulled me to the side and grinned. "Hey, Kendra, you wanna see something funny?" He asked.
I smiled. "Duh!"I exclaimed much to Genie's happiness. Genie told me his plan and I couldn't help but laugh.
Genie led me to a small cave and had me hide behind a huge boulder. I did as he said. A few minutes later I saw Haroud walking through the desert towards the cave, carrying a bag over his shoulder. He walked into the hide out and I could see Abis Mal inside warming up by the fire. "It's about time! It's dark and it's cold and I'm lonely!" He exclaimed in anger.
"Ohh…" Haroud mumbled as dropped the bag. "Oh there, such a shame that, you were unable to join me in my delightful filth shoveling expedition." Haroud growled.
Abis Mal didn't notice the sarcasm though as he looked inside the bag. "I-I'm telling you all this gunk that rained down on us must be good for something." He tested the rubber like substance with his fingers."Maybe we could sell it as lamp oil. You suppose it burns?"
"I don't think that's a good-" Haroud tried to warn, but of course Abis Mal didn't listen as he cut him off and said, "Ohh, don't be such a fraidy-cat!"
Abis Mal threw the handful of rubber like substance into the fire and a huge amount of smoke rose from it revealing Sootinai. I couldn't help but laugh silently at the fear that was on both boys faces. This was just too rich!
"I am Sootinai!"The "Smoke Demon" shouted angrily. Abis Mal and Haroud screamed and bumped into each other before running out of their hideout, Sootinai watched them go and then he looks at me and transformed into Genie.
"Like shooting fish in a barrel." Genie laughed. I came out from behind the rock and laughed. There definitely never was a boring day here in Agrabah.
