Chapter 10: Atlantica part two
It was now morning and the four hung around the shore. This time, all four were properly dressed. Previously, Donald had been sent to sneak into a nearby clothing shop and steal enough clothes for all of them. Of course, Ed had sent him on this errand, and in a rude, demanding manner, too. So, Donald took this chance for revenge.
"I can't believe Donald brought you a dress!" Sora laughed at the dress-covered Ed.
"I'D KILL YOU IF THIS DRESS WASN'T SO HARD TO RUN IN!!!" he screamed at Donald.
"Hee hee," chuckled Donald, evilly.
"But, Donald," interrupted Goofy, "are we gonna be able to get back underwater?"
"I can't use the spell again," Donald told Goofy. "I used too much power, I don't have enough to do it again."
Ariel stayed hidden behind a rock, eavesdropping on the entire conversation. She had went back home the previous night, so as to not make her father suspicious by staying out too long. 'They're not coming back?' she thought. 'They can't leave! I have to stop them somehow!' She swam down into the deep, searching for a way to make them mermen again.
"I might be able to use my powers tomorrow, though . . ." admitted Donald, conviently as soon as Ariel was out of listening distance. "I need to restore 'til then."
"Oh, I wanted to go back soon . . ." Sora sighed.
"You just wanted to see Ariel, you liar!" Ed screamed.
"S-so did you!" Sora screamed back.
"Sh-shut up!"
"QUIT IT, YOU TWO!!" quaked Donald.
"We should explore the town, since we got nothing better to do, hyuk!" offered Goofy.
"Yeah!" agreed Sora.
"Whatever floats your boat," replied Ed as the walked into the nearby town.
Meanwhile, Ariel was underwater in her grotto. She sighed. "Maybe my father's right. Maybe there is something the matter with me. I just don't see how a world that makes such wonderful things, could be bad." Then, she broke into song. I have no idea why, but she did anyway. She had a beautiful voice and all, but it was just weird.
As she sang, two eels watched from behind. When she stopped singing, the two eels approached her. "Hello, dear."
"Wh-who are you?" Ariel asked.
"I'm Flotsam and this is Jetsam," they introduced. "It looks like you could use some help, dearie."
"With what?"
"You want to go to land, don't you?" they asked. "We happen to know just the right sea witch."
"Sea witch?" Ariel asked. "You mean Ursula?"
"Come with us," offered the eels, "and we'll bring you to Ursula." The two eels swam off and Ariel, curious, followed them.
Meanwhile, Sora, Ed, Donald, and Goofy were in town buying sea salt ice cream. "Wow, this stuff is actually pretty good!" Ed admitted.
"Yeah, it's salty, yet sweet!" Sora pointed out.
"A disgusting combination!" Ed finished the rest of his ice cream in one bite. "Yum!"
"Donald, do you have enough magic yet?" Sora asked.
"NO!!" Donald screamed. "STOP ASKING!!"
Sora and Ed sighed.
Back underwater, Ariel had arrived at Ursula's lair. "H-hello?" she looked around at the seemingly empty room.
"Hello, dear!" echoed a voice throughout the room. Eight black tentacles snuck out of a small little room and hung down, followed by a half-octopus half-human figure. "My friends tell me that you need some help?"
"Yes," Ariel started. "I want to become human."
"Oh, a human!" Ursula said. "I know just the spell. But there's a catch."
"What is it?" Ariel asked.
"You must get the one with the key to kiss you before the third day as human," Ursula explained the completely weird and nonsensical price for the spell. "But, if you can not get him to kiss you, then you will be my slave for the rest of eternity!"
"But, if I become human, I'll never be able to see my father or sisters again . . ."
"Oh, pish posh," Ursula complained. She wisped up a contract and pen and held them in front of Ariel. "Do we have a deal?"
Ariel took the pen and signed the contract. Ursula laughed evilly as Ariel's fins slowly turned into legs. As she struggled for breath, Flounder pulled her to shore.
"Wow!" Ariel looked at her two new legs and wiggled them around.
"Ariel! You have legs!" pointed out Flounder.
"This is amazing!" she exclaimed as she attempted to stand. Conviently, she had on a dress that came with the contract. It was a pretty weird contract. "I have to go find Sora and Ed!" she screamed as she stumbled off.
"Arieeeel!!" Flounder sighed. "Good luck," he muttered as he swam back underwater.
Sora, Ed, Donald, and Goofy walked down the street, still working on their sea-salt ice creams. Ed was on his fifth. As they walked, they saw a red-headed girl running down the street. She started running, then fell flat on her face. She started running again, then fell on her face yet another time. This happened about five more times until Sora, Ed, Donald, and Goofy finally realized who it was.
"Ariel?" Sora asked. "Why do you have legs? I thought you were a mermaid!"
"It's a long story . . ."
"I knew it!" Ed shouted. "Mermaids don't exist! You were just wearing a Halloween costume that you bought for 10.99 at Wal-mart, weren't you?"
"Um . . . no," Ariel answered.
"Oh. Then, you bought it for 9.99, eh?" Ed barked. "Those bastards, always making you think that you're getting good deals, but you're only paying one cent less than 10 dollars . . ."
"Um . . . no," Ariel answered again.
"Oh, Then what happened to your fins?" Ed wondered.
"Well, I traded them for legs," she admitted.
"Oh, I didn't know you could do that," Ed said.
"So, what are we supposed to do now, hyuk?" asked Goofy.
"I don't know," Ed replied. "It's getting pretty late. Where should we sleep?"
"I guess we have to sleep on the street," Sora answered.
So the five slept on the street that night, for lack of anywhere better to sleep.
'So Ed has the key,' Ariel thought to herself. The next day had finally started, giving her two more nights to fullfill the stupid quest of having to kiss Ed.
"Yawn!" Sora streched. "Hey, Ariel."
"Morning, Sora."
"Is everyone else asleep?" yawned Sora.
"Yeah," she answered. She slept on a bench, while Sora, Ed, Donald, and Goofy all slept on the sidewalk. Ed had rolled over into the street, nearly getting run over by a car several times.
"Wanna walk around town before anyone wakes up?" Sora asked.
"Sure!" Ariel answered as she stood up and fell flat on her face yet again.
"HAHAHAHA!!!" Sora laughed.
"I can do it!" Ariel stood up again and balanced for a couple seconds, then took a few steps, then fell down again. "It's harder than it looks!"
Sora laughed again. "Here, let me teach you." He helped her up and taught her 'left, then right' and such.
"Oh! Now it makes sense!" she said as she started walking on her own.
"Ow!" Sora screamed as he rubbed the back of his head.
"What's wrong, Sora?" Ariel asked.
"Something just hit the back of my head . . ." he said as he looked around to see what it was. He finally noticed a shoe on the floor. "A shoe?"
"That's right, buddy!" yelled Ed, in lack of one shoe. "YOU LEFT ME IN THE ROAD, GODDAMNIT!!!! A TRUCK RAN OVER MY METAL LEG AND NOW IT'S BROKEN!!!!" he yelled as he took off his other shoe and chucked it at Sora.
"Ow!" Sora blocked the shoe. "What a second, you can't walk, can you?"
"Um . . ." Ed looked down. "No . . ."
Sora took a rock, chucked it at Ed's head, then ran off with Ariel. "Try and catch me now!" he screamed at Ed, while sticking out his tongue.
"AAAAGH!!" Ed screamed. "I'M GONNA KILL THAT KID!!!"
Somehow, Donald and Goofy were still asleep when a girl approached Ed. "Wh-who're you?" Ed asked as he turned around. He started into her eyes and suddenly seemed to enter a trance.
"I'm Vanessa."
