Ok keep your eyes closed." Naveen said leading Tiana to her special surprise.
When they got up to the little platform Naveen said"Ok open your eyes."
Tiana's whole face lit up. A dinner just for two! She was so excited that she was speechless.
Naveen pulled out a chair for her. She walked over and sat down.
"No one has ever done this for me before." Tiana managed to get out.
"Oh wait there's more." Naveen said pulling off the top of the tray revealing minced fruits and veggies.
"You minced!" Tiana exclaimed.
"Thank you." Naveen blushed.
And they ate. When they were finished eating they sat on the edge of the platform and talked.
"There's my restaurant." Tiana said pointing to the old sugar mill.
"I just wish I had the money for it. My dad wanted this so bad and if I don't come up with the money it'll be like I'm not connected to him anymore." Tiana confessed.
"Oh." Naveen said hiding the ring behind his back. He was waiting for the exact moment to give it to her and he still wasn't sure when to do it. As he was thinking she talked more about her daydreams of her and her restaurant.
"Thank you Naveen, this really means a lot to me." Tiana said.
"No problem." Naveen replied.
And with that she left. Naveen had missed his chance.
Later that night everyone found opens cabins and went to sleep.
"Goodnight Abu," Aladdin said with a yawn.
Abu responded with a snore. Aladdin laughed and went to bed himself.
Of course you've probolay guessed that the shadows were watching Aladdin, Abu, Naveen, Flynn and Genie. They watched as Aladdin eased himself into slumber. They thought they could sneak by him without being noticed. Unfortunately one of them tripped on the shadow of a lamp cord waking everyone up.
"Who's there?" Flynn asked confidently reaching for his lamp.
A scream was heard. Flynn turned the light on. Naveen was gone.
"What happened? Where's Naveen?" Aladdin asked letting his eyes get used to the light.
"I have no idea." Flynn answered.
"All I saw was their shadows and they were really creepy and they went like this." Genie said turning into a creepy shadow on the wall tripping Aladdin as he got up and pulling him by his ankles to the door. Aladdin yelped as he hit the ground but then laughed as the carpet tickled his stomach as he was dragged across the room. (I know you usually get rug burn but this carpet was really ticklish.)
"Who could have that been though? There are a lot of people on this boat and only a few kidnappers. How will we be able to pick these few guys out?" Aladdin asked.
Everyone thought for a minute.
"Genie turn into that shadow again." Aladdin said.
Genie turned back into the shadow.
"Well the shadow looks ugly maybe we can find the ugliest person on the boat and see if he has Naveen." Flynn said as if it were the best idea on earth.
"No, that's not it…" Aladdin trailed off. "If I were a thief were would I go before I would leave somewhere?" Aladdin asked himself.
"Um hello?! Both of you guys are thieves!" Genie exclaimed.
"Oh yea…" They both said in unison.
"Well when I was a thief I would sneak into parties and have some fun!" Flynn said excitedly.
"I would get outta there as fast as I could. Wouldn't want the food to spoil." Aladdin said.
"Food?" Flynn asked.
"I only steel the things I need to survive unlike some people…" Aladdin was looking at Flynn.
"Let's just do Flynn's idea before it gets too late." Genie said.
"The ugly person idea? Or the party thing?" Aladdin asked.
"The party idea." Genie responded.
They snuck out of their room not wanting to disturb Carpet and tiptoed down the stairs to the party deck. They hid in a dark corner by the entrance.
"There's a guard over there how will we get in?" Flynn asked.
"I got this." Aladdin said letting Abu off his shoulder and onto the floor. He ran over to the guard blocking the entrance and crawled up his pants. The people giving him the money to get in looked at him like he was a freak as he was dancing around trying to get Abu out of his pants. Aladdin, Flynn and Genie were able to sneak by without being noticed. After they were in Abu climbed out of the guards pants to catch up with the rest of the group.
"OOO Nachos! Can we get some? I love nachos!" Flynn exclaimed.
"Go ahead I'll catch up with you guys later." Aladdin said starting to walk away from Genie and Flynn who sprinted over to the nacho machine. Abu stayed on his shoulder.
He looked around for a while then decided to stuff his face with some nachos too. Then everyone decided to stay together. They looked on the dance floor, the punch bowl, the nacho stand (Flynn's idea), the dj stand, the nacho stand (AGAIN), the games, the water park (it's a really big ship and they went on all the scariest water slides and all the baby slides and all the slides inbetween.), then back to the party, and finally, you guessed it the nacho stand.
"We can't find these guys anywhere." Flynn said with a mouth full of nachos.
"Well there's one place we didn't look." Genie said. He paused for dramatic effect.
"No! No! It can't be!" Flynn got scared.
"Yes, the library." Genie finished.
"NOOOOO!" Flynn yelled not to loud.
Aladdin laughed but then was cut off. He saw a shadow.
"Guys I see it. Follow me." He whispered.
They all got in a fighting stance and edged toward the shadow. When they were about half way there they decided to split up.
"Genie, Abu go look for anymore shadows around the ship, Flynn, come with me, and before you go take this walkie talkie with you just in case." Aladdin whispered handing Genie a walkie talkie. Of course Genie and Abu ran over to the nacho stand to "look" for shadows while Flynn and Aladdin figured out there plan.
"Ok sounds fun what do we do?" Flynn asked loudly.
Aladdin put a finger to his lips. "Shh! You don't wanna scare the shadow away do you?" He asked.
Flynn shook his head.
"Ok then follow me and if you wanna talk please whisper."
"OK" Flynn whispered loudly.
Aladdin rolled his eyes as he and Flynn began to scoot across the wall.
After a while they got to the corner, the shadow was close, too close.
"Ok I'll take a peak and I'll tell you what I see." Aladdin said taking a peak around the corner.
"What do you see?" Flynn asked.
"I see… I see a YAH-"Aladdin was cut off and pulled around the corner. Flynn pressed himself to the wall not wanting to let the bad guys see him. He took some deep breathes then got the courage to look around the corner. His friend's life deepened on it. He looked and saw something horrible, something that would make a good looking man run for his life: crazed teenage girls.(I'm not sure what a normal guy would think of this but to Flynn it's his worst nightmare) He gasped, they were torturing Aladdin!(Don't worry they were just kissing him)
He looked around for something to do. The walkie talkie was on the ground. He leaned against the wall letting some of his shoulder stick out to the other side.
"Genie, come in Genie can you read me?" Flynn asked to the small black device in his hand.
"I can read you loud and clear." Genie said in a voice that sounded like a spy.
"I need you to make adistraction." Flynn said.
"What are we distracting today?" Genie asked.
"Teenage gi-RLS" Flynn was yanked to the other side.
Genie misheard the message. "Teenage squirrels? Hmm I'll just do something that all teenage squirrels like." He duplicated himself 5 times and walked over to the wall where Flynn had dropped his walkie talkie. He looked around the corner and snapped his fingers. A stage was there. He snapped again and all five of him looked different. They walked up on stage and one of them walked up to the microphone and said:
"Hi, we're One Direction and were gonna sing a song for you."
All the girls screamed and let go of Aladdin and Flynn. They ran up to the stage screaming and grabbing for the Genies playing as One Direction.
They both felt a little woozy from all that had just happened. They walked over to a different wall far away from those girls and sat against it, trying to rub some of the lipstick off their faces
"Why do we have to be so attractive?" Flynn whined.
"I don't know. But when Genie and Abu come back were going back to bed." Aladdin said.
Back at the concert Genie (One Direction) finished his song. All five Genies turned back into themselves and morphed into one Genie.
"EWWW HE'S OLD!" One girl yelled in disgust starting a riot.
And with that Genie left.
He came back to the spot where Aladdin and Flynn were.
"Genie, can we go home?" Aladdin asked.
"Sure Al" Genie responded. They got back to their cabin, cleaned themselves off so the girls wouldn't suspect anything and went to bed.
The next day at breakfast the guys told the girls what happened last night except for the 3 extra trips to the nacho stand, the water park and the crazed girls. But anyway by nightfall Naveen was still missing and the boat trip had already reached its end.
"Attention all passengers, we have reached our final destination: New Orleans. Please gather all of your luggage and exit the boat. Thank you." The speaker said.
"We have to get off now and we still can't find Naveen" Tiana complained.
"I hope he's ok." Rapunzel added.
"Maybe he's somewhere in town, we'll look for him in groups" Aladdin said.
"Let's get outta here I'm getting sea sick." Genie complained his face turning green.
Once they got off the boat Aladdin explained.
"Ok Rapunzel, Flynn, Genie and Ray you're gonna be a group. Then that leaves Tiana, Abu, Louis and me." He finished as everyone hopped on a magic carpet.
"Oh and if anything happens use this to call us over." Aladdin added tossing the same walkie talkie from the night before to Flynn.
"Let's go watch the parade! I love par- I mean look for Naveen at the parade" Rapunzel started then remembered it wasn't goof off time.
"We can still watch the parade while looking for him." Genie said.
"Oh ok!" Then they took off for the parade. But while having that small conversation it wasted enough time for Aladdin to get his magic carpet in a good spot to watch the parade. A few floats passed by the last one with Charlotte and human Naveen on top.
Tiana gasped, her heart sank. She was actually starting to fall in love with him. A tear fell from her eye.
"What's wrong?" Aladdin asked noticing her crying.
"T-that's Naveen" she stuttered.
"With another girl…" Aladdin trailed off.
Louis started to play a sad song on his trumpet.
Aladdin reached for his walkie talkie and pressed the button. "We found him." Aladdin said. They were over in an instant.
"Where is he?" Ray asked.
"Over there." Aladdin pointed
"I'll be right back." Tiana said crying but not exactly sobbing yet.
Rapunzel looked at her hop away. "I'm gonna go talk to her this is a girl thing." She said following after Tiana. Eventually she caught up with her in an alley. Ray decided to take a closer look at the float.
Tiana was crying in a corner of the alley. Rapunzel walked over to her.
"You ok?" She asked sitting down next to her.
"No, he- he" Tiana answered with a rush of sobs.
Rapunzel picked her up and set her down on the front of her dress. If you're gonna cry, its better to be comfortable. Rapunzel thought.
"It's ok Flynn did the same thing to me once, but then I figured out my mom was a bad guy. Maybe someone is behind this." Rapunzel said.
"You're correct." A voice said. Both girls turned around and gasped.
Ray flew over to the float as fast as his little wings could carry him. As he got there he flew over to Naveen's ear.
"Hey what's going on? What are you doing here?" He asked.
But Naveen only swatted him away sending him to the floor right by a chest.
"Ray! Ray! Over here!" A voice shouted.
He turned around. Naveen was inside the chest!
"Naveen, how did you get in there?" Ray asked excitedly.
"I'll tell you later just get me outta here." Naveen said.
Ray worked his way into the lock pushed and pulled a few things and the chest flew open. Naveen hopped out and looked around. The other Naveen noticed and chased after them. They ran past Aladdin Flynn and Genie and towards the alley.
"Don't be scared girls, it's just good old Dr. Facilier" He said.
"Something tells me it was him." Rapunzel said.
"It was you." Tiana said hopping toward him angrily
He jumped back and blew some purple dust from his hand. Tiana was human and in her restaurant.
"If you don't tattle all of this can be yours." He said.
Tiana looked around. It was exactly how she dreamed it would be.
"You can finally have what your daddy wanted." Dr Facilier coaxed.
A waiter walked by Rapunzel and offered her a cookie off the tray he was carrying. He held out his hand Tiana slowly reached for it. Then common sense kicked in. This is just a trick! remember what Momma Odie said. She told herself. Her dad didn't have a restaurant but he did have the thing that Tiana needed: love.
"He had love!" She exclaimed ripping his intimidating necklace from his neck.
"Be careful with that." He sounded nervous.
"Yeah right." Tiana replied about to throw his "Precious" necklace to the ground. Dr. Facilier turned her back into a frog leaving her only inches form the ground instead of feet. By then Ray and Naveen came dashing in with the fake Naveen and Aladdin, Flynn and Genie following.
"Take this and fly." Tiana gave the necklace to Ray. But before he could fly very high Dr. Facilier pushed him down with his foot. Right at that second Aladdin came into this mess. It all happened in slow motion. He needed to get everyone's attention to save Ray. He yelled "NO! STOP!" putting his hands up to make stop signs. He opened his eyes. It was dead silent. In fact, no one was even moving, or breathing except for him. Had he frozen time? Jiminy appeared behind him.
"What's going on?" Aladdin asked looking at him, then his hands, then back at him.
"You've discovered your power." Jiminy answered.
"My power?" He repeated.
"Like Rapunzel can heal, you can stop time." Jiminy told him.
"When you want to stop time you shoot your finger like this or at a clock." He explained.
"Like when Flynn does that pointing thing to girls and Rapunzel slaps him?" Aladdin asked.
Jiminy chuckled. "Yes, like that. And when you want to stop do the same thing."
"Ok" Aladdin replied.
"Good luck!" Jiminy called disappearing before his eyes. Aladdin moved Ray to where Flynn and Genie were. He decided to not break the necklace because this wasn't his movie. Then he pushed Dr. Facilier all the way down the street decided it would give them a head start. Then he did the Flynn thing and everything and everyone went back into motion.
"How did I end up all the way over here?" Ray asked.
"I don't know." Aladdin responded.
"Well what are you waiting for break the necklace!" Rapunzel encouraged.
The fake Naveen took action. "Shadows get the girl and her little friends." Shadows creeped up the wall.
"OH now I get it was those guys." Flynn said before they pinned him down.
Dr. Facilier turned the corner into the alley. Tiana still was running for her life. No one noticed that Ray had secretly grabbed the necklace form Tiana and flew up high. "Tiana! Catch!" He shouted letting go of the necklace. Tiana ran for it but it slipped off her finger and broke. A giant voodoo head formed. Voodoo dolls banging on drums appeared with purple lights flashing. Dr. Facilier was getting sucked into its mouth. All the dolls were singing "Are you ready?" repeatedly.
"Can't we talk this out?" Dr. Facilier pleaded.
The big voodoo head responded with more violent sucking.
"Please, please don't do- NOOOOO!" Dr. Facilier was gone. And the other Naveen turned into Naveen's personal butler. Everyone in the alley heard someone coming and hid except for Naveen's butler.
"OH NAVEEN! Where are you?" Charlotte called turning down the alley.
"Hello my dear." The butler said.
"You mean? YOU'RE OLD?!" Charlotte asked grossed out. She ran away screaming "EWWWW!" and the butler walked away.
"Come on Charlotte can't be to far ahead." Tiana said.
Everyone started running after her calling her name. Eventually they caught up with her and explained everything.
"So I have to kiss a frog, to make a prince, and then it's wedding time?!" Charlotte asked excitedly as Naveen hopped on her hand.
"Whatever it takes to get Tiana her restaurant because, she means a lot to me." Naveen said.
"Oh Tia I've been kissing all these frogs and you're the one that found the prince! I'll kiss him but no marriage required!" Charlotte gushed.
She stood up. "Besides, there's other fish in the sea." Charlotte said walking her fingers up the open part of Aladdin's chest then poking his nose. He just gave her a confused look.
"Tick tock." Flynn reminded pointing up to the big clock.
"Oh right!" Charlotte said as she picked up Naveen and kissed him as the clock rang. Nothing happened. She tried again. Still nothing.
"I'm sorry guys." Charlotte said.
"It's ok." Tiana replied.
"Let's go home." Aladdin said.
In a few weeks Tiana and Naveen fell in love and got married. (I'm skipping to the wedding because this chapter is already long enough)
"You may now kiss the bride!" Momma Odie said excitedly as Tiana and Naveen sealed their marriage with a kiss. Sparkly green magic flew around them, and when it disappeared Tiana and Naveen were human.
"You just kissed yourself a princess" Tiana said.
"And I'm going to do it again." Naveen said as he dipped her.
After that Tiana got her restaurant and was really famous. A few more weeks later everyone took a step outside to take a breather.
"You know, right about now is when the portal appears." Aladdin said.
"Yeah, you two wanna come with us?" Flynn asked.
"Well I have to pack, and say good bye and get someone to takeover the restaurant." Tiana said.
"No just wear the clothes you're wearing say good bye to your loved ones and meet back here." Genie said.
"Ok." They both said and ran off.
But ten minutes after they left the portal came early. Everyone gripped on to something for dear life. A minute later Tiana and Naveen came back.
"JUMP IN!" everyone shouted. They just stood there.
"Watch! I'll go first!" Flynn said as he let go of the railing falling in shouting "WOOOOO HOOO!"
They both looked at each other shrugged shoulders and hopped in. Next Rapunzel, Genie, Abu and Carpet fell in all that was left was Aladdin he let go fell in and the portal closed.
Hooray! Chapter 8! It's finally here! Not sure how long chapter 9 will take while writing the Disney on Ice and Halloween specials. See you soon!
