When the two reached towards land, Ariel was the first to awaken. Not knowing what happened, she tried to get up, but realized that there were legs in front of her. With such smile on her face, she attempted to wiggle her toes and it responded to her command.
"Wha-what happened?" A voice replied.
Ariel, who turned around, noticed that Lena looked exactly like Ariel, but with blond hair. When Lena turned aside, she noticed Ariel and started to back away.
"Who... who are you?"
Ariel tried to explain, but no voice would appear out of her mouth. She then realized something: the potions they drank were also things taken in return. For her, it would be her beautiful voice. But for Lena, it was her memory. Both Flounder and Sebastian noticed this revelation, but didn't know what to say about this. As she tried to explain, a familiar bird flew above them with a smile on their faces.
"Well, look at what the catfish dragged in!"
"Who are you?" Lena asked.
"Right, right. You're playing with me, aren't ya?"
"Why would I be playing with you? I'm simply telling you what I think."
"Okay, whatever you say."
He then sat on the rocks near the two and observed them in detail.
"Say: there's something different between you two."
While he thought carefully, Lena tries her best to get up, but felt a bit wobbly. Ariel, who agreed with her example, followed her lead and started to stand. Scuttle noticed the two with human legs and asked Sebastian and Flounder what happened. While the two stood firmly, both failed to stay that long and fell to the water.
"Just look at them!" Sebastian pointed out, "On legs. On human legs!"
With such shocked news, he completely snapped with fear.
"My nerves are shot. This is a catastrophe! What would their father say? I'll tell you what their fathers say, they'd say they'll gonna kill themselves a crab, that's what their father'd say! I'm gonna march me self straight home right now-"
As soon as Ariel heard him mentioning about telling their dad about this results, she grabbed him from the water and towards her to stop him. While she does that, Lena, ignoring this matter, tries to walk towards the ocean to look out there while Sebastian continued.
"Maybe there's still time. If we could get that witch to give you back your voice, you could go home with all the normal fish, and just be..."
Sebastian stopped his words and noticed how sad Ariel was, then turned to see Lena glancing towards the ocean calmly. As if she could remember, her eyes started to tear things up lightly.
"...just be miserable for the rest of your lives. All right, all right. I'll try to help you two find your princes."
Ariel, smiling from cheek to cheek, kissed him on the side and placed the crustaceous creature on the ground lightly. Lena, who felt a hand touch on the side, saw the smile on Ariel's face and agreed to help.
"Well, if we're going to find these... princes... how do we know where to look for them?" Lena asked.
"Leave that to me!" Scuttle volunteered as he prepared to fly towards the sky.
"I don't think so, you need to help them get dressed like a human. Flounder," Sebastian replied, "try to find Vinc. He may be able to help out as well."
"I'll try." he obeyed as he swam into the ocean.
"I'll stay here with you two until that bird provides a decent outfit for you two."
Meanwhile, the two princes were walking on the same beach near the two princesses. Suddenly, Max, Prince Eric's dog, smelled something familiar. With such glee, he ran towards the scent as the two noticed him running.
"Eric! Your dog's seems to have found something!"
"But what could it be?"
"Well, let's find out!"
While the two ran, Max had just found the two princesses who was using a nearby ripped sails as clothing. Try as they might, Max found them and chase towards the two. Ariel hid behind the rock , but unfortunately, Lena tripped and fell towards the sand. As Max started to lick her nonstop, a voice can be heard from a distance. Ariel, who recognized the voice, started to smile. Lena, however, as she got up, recognized the sound also, but wasn't sure where she heard it before.
"There you are, Max!" Stephan stated in relief.
"What's gotten into you, fella?" Eric asked as he started to look up.
He then recognize the two girls with ripped sails on. Ariel, eager to get attention, started to fix her hair. Lena, on the other hand, couldn't help but hide from the two.
"Are you two alright?" Stephan asked.
"I'm sorry if this knucklehead scared you two." Eric apologized as he pet his pup. "He's harmless, really."
When Eric glanced towards the two was just gladly happy to see him again. Lena, who was shy to see them, noticed how Ariel and Eric connected.
"You seem familiar somehow." Stephan mentioned curiously to Lena, "Have we met before?"
"I don't think so." Lena replied.
However, when Lena responded that way, Ariel grabbed her shoulder and happily nod her head towards Eric.
"We have met?" Lena asked quietly.
"I knew it!" Eric replied happily as he held her hands, "You were the one! The one I've been looking for! What's your name?"
Sadly, Ariel stopped for a moment and didn't respond. Lena, knowing what was going on, played along for a moment to help her out.
"Her name is Ariel and I'm Lena."
"Nice to meet you two." Stephan greeted.
"But why couldn't she say that to me?" Eric asked.
Ariel tried her best to show Eric that her voice was gone. When he realized this, his smile started to disappear. Stephan then thought of something since they were the only ones here on the island.
"Eric, may I speak with you?"
"Sure Stephan. What is it?"
As the two walked away for a moment, Lena pulled Ariel aside to talk.
"Look, I may not remember everything I was back then, but I want to help you. Will you let me help you?"
Ariel just glanced at her confused as Lena continued.
"You like Eric, right?"
She nodded lightly.
"Then, I'll make sure you and him go well together."
Ariel smiled lightly and used her moment to gesture her hands without them seeing. Without knowing what she was trying to stay, the two mermaids noticed the two princes coming over. Stephan then told the two princesses what they discussed and it seemed like they want to help the two princesses with their conditions. For a moment, the two agreed and started to walk towards the princes. Ariel tried to walk towards them, but started to slip. As quick as a flash, Eric grabbed a hold of her and tried to help her walk. Lena, on the other hand, tried to walk on her own, but started to fall towards the ground. Stephan tried to grab her hand, but she was trying her best to move on her own. From then on, they made it towards the castle.
