I don't have really anything to say today...

Iris is own by Silver Magician of Chaos

...

Seriously, nothing to say... I have a headache...

Have a good first day of school people!

Read on!

In the dining room, Terra, Iris, Xehanort, Vanitas, and Sultan Eraqus were eating a big dinner. Due to the little arguement earlier, Terra was completely silent and not eating a bite of his food. Since Xehanort and Vanitas still hated Prince Ali's guts, they were quiet as well. Iris tried to get things lively by starting up a conversation, but it failed. Eraqus looked at his dinner guests with confusion.

"Did something happen that I need to know about?"

No one said a thing. Vanitas excused himself to leave. He went upstairs, opposite direction of his own room.

"What's with the long faces? We should be celebrating! Iris is to be getting married soon!" Eraqus announced happily.

Still, no one was happy. Even Iris didn't like the sound of being married. She would need to tell him sooner or later, but now seemed like the right time.

"Father, I don't want to marry." she stated nervously.

The Sultan's eyes grew wide. He clutched his chest like a heartattack was coming. Did his daughter really not want to get married? Would there be no heir to the throne after all? Would he not be a grandfather?

"W-what?" he asked.

"I want to marry Terra instead." she said.

At that instant, her hands flew to her mouth. She revealed Terra's true identity to her father and the royal visor. Xehanort smiled and let out a little chuckle.

"Terra? Who's that? What land does he hail from?" Eraqus asked, relieved that he might be a grandfather yet.

Said person raised his hand meekly. The Sultan blinked and looked at Terra with more confusion. What was going on?

"But wait, that's Prince Ali. He's the prince of...of..." Eraqus started, not remembering exactly he came from.

Xehanort stood up from his seat and went to the Sultan's side. A happy smile was on his face. The plan was coming along nicely.

"Allow me to explain, your highness. You see, Terra here is actually the most notorious thief in Agrabah. I used him to get inside the Cave of Wonders while Vanitas tried to win Iris's heart. From what it seems, Terra found the magic lamp I have been looking for and used one of his wishes to become Prince Ali. Once he was a prince, he tried to win the heart of your daughter so he could be a real prince and take over Agrabah. He has been deceiving all of us for the ultimate prize: A place of royalty."

Terra looked at Xehanort with pure hatred. That was Xehanort's plan. It finally made sense. Xehanort wanted Agrabah for himself. He was using Vanitas to help achieve the goal.

"That's a lie!" Terra shouted.

"Is it really, Terra? Was getting Iris to fall for you very hard?" Vanitas yelled, coming back down the stairs with something behind his back.

Terra couldn't say anything. He did get help to have Iris fall in love with him. But, he never wanted to take Agrabah over. He only wanted Iris.

"I...um..." he stumbled.

Iris backed away from the thief. Xehanort's accusations didn't sound crazy at the moment. But Terra was so caring and understanding before becoming a prince. Did Terra really want Agrabah instead of her?

"Terra? Is he telling the truth?" she asked him.

"No. I did all of this just to have you, Iris. He's lying to you." Terra tried to explain.

Vanitas came down to Xehanort and pull out the lamp for all to see. Eraqus looked at the lamp like it was a treasure. Terra was shocked. He forgot to hide the lamp somewhere after the little fight with Surane.

"No..." Terra whispered.

Xehanort held the lamp in his hand and gave it a long rub. A sparkly smoke came out of the spout and Surane was right next to Vanitas in an instant. The first person in her point of view was Terra.

"If you think you can just apologize for forgetting your promise, well it won't work! You better get on your knees and beg if you think I'll forgive you." she spat at him.

Surane saw the shocked look on Terra's face and looked around. She noticed the lamp in Xehanort's posession and gasped. Xehanort grinned with pleasure.

"Now, then, if your through?" he said.

The genie nodded meekly.

"Let's have the first wish shall we? I wish I rule on high as Sultan!" he yelled triumphantly.

Eraqus gasped. Terra ran to Surane and tried to pull her cane away. She fought back, against her will. Vanitas pushed Terra out of the way, threatening him with a keyblade.

"Surane, don't do it!" Terra yelled.

"I'm sorry, Terra, I have no choice. A genie must obey it's master." She sadly commented.

The genie turned to her new master and pointed her cane at him. Xehanort outstretched his arms, ready for the spell.

"Agrabah do Xehanort praepositorum." she chanted.

A blinding light overcame the room. A mysterious force stripped Eraqus of his royal clothes and replaced them with peasant clothing. The force went over to Xehanort and dressed him in the most flashiest clothing ever. The light faded away. Iris ran to her father and held his arm. Terra looked at Surane again. She was taking her mask off. The black charcoal eyes came out again, but they were sorry and sad.

Terra realized at that moment that it wasn't Iris he wanted anymore. It was Surane. Something about her troubled life made him want to protect her. Her personality made him smile. This sad look in her eyes filled him with rage. He wanted her to be happy and he cursed himself for not wishing her free sooner. There was one last thing to do, get the lamp back to make the wish.

"Xehanort, you vile betrayer!" Eraqus shouted at his ex-visor.

"That's Sultan to you, Eraqus!" Vanitas yelled at him.

Surane stood there in the middle of it all. She waited for her new master to make his next wish. She wanted to run to Terra and protect him from Vanitas, but she couldn't.

"Now then, you all will bow to me!" Xehanort thundered.

"We will never bow to you!" Iris shot back.

Suddenly, the atmosphere seemed extremely dark. Darkness swallowed the palace and the room was an evil red glow. Xehanort was not happy at the moment. The lamp in his hands were being threatened of being crushed under his death grip.

"If you do not bow before your new Sultan, you will make you bow!" he yelled.

He turned to Surane with an unhealthy glow in his eyes. The genie backed away in fear of what he might wish for now.

"Genie, I wish for Eraqus, Iris, and Terra to-" he started.

Suddenly, Vanitas came forward and snatched the lamp out of his master's hands. Vanitas also looked a bit on the crazy side. He held the lamp greedily and looked at Surane.

"I get my three wishes for finding the damn lamp! Genie, I wish for Iris to fall in love with me!" he yelled pointing at the princess.

Eraqus stepped forward and shielded his daughter from Surane. Terra ran between her and Vanitas, ready to tackle either one of them.

"Um, Master, there's a few rules. I can't make anyone fall in love with another person..." she said shyly.

"There are rules?" Xehanort questioned.

"Yes, sirs. I also can't bring people from the dead and give you more wishes. Those are the rules." she recited.

Vanitas and Xehanort looked at each other. It took a few minutes for the same idea to cross their minds. There was a loophole.

"Could I wish for all rules to be broken?" Vanitas asked with a smile on his face.

Shock spread over Surane's face. Not even she thought of it as an option. With all the rules broken, she could oppose her masters, they could do whatever the heck they wanted, and all hell could break loose if they wished it so. Terra realized this fact too. He had to get the lamp away from them and fast.

"I'm taking that as a yes!" Vanitas cheered. "Genie, I wish all the genie rules were broken!"

With a clap of thunder, the lamp in his hands shuddered violently. Surane screamed in invisible pain and dropped to the ground. Terra rushed to her side and held her head. The lamp stopped moving and she breathed heavily. The wish was granted.

"Genie, I wish I was the most powerful sorcerer in the world!" Xehanort commanded her, now holding the lamp.

"Xehanort do potentiae super universum." Surane chanted against her will.

The old man was hit with a lightning ray and covered in electricity. Power filled his body rapidly like a battery being charged. Vanitas laughed evilly.

"Now then, bow to me!" the ex-visor commanded Iris and Eraqus.

A sparkly red cloud covered the father and daughter as they fell to their knees. Rajah came running into the room and pounced at Xehanort. The old man shot some magic at the beast and it transformed into a kitten. Terra ran at Xehanort with full speed. The sorcerer trapped the thief in a magical barred cage.

"Prince Ali, so it is he, but not as you know him. Read my lips and come to grips with reality. You can't escape from your past, even lies won't come to last! Say hello to the fake Prince Ali!" he sang.

With a flick of his finger, Terra was back in his original black shirt and tan hakamas. Outside, Shadow turned back into a shadow heartless. Surane got up and tried to attack Xehanort herself. He blasted her with lightning and sent her falling down, landing on her shoulder. She yelled out in pain. Terra fought with the cage while watching Surane get beat up. Xehanort continued singing.

"So Ali turns out to be merely Terra. Just a con, need I go on? Just take it from me...his personality flaws give me adequate cause to send him packing on a one way trip so his prospects take a terminal dip. His assests frozen, the venue choosen is the ends of the earth!"

Suddenly, Terra's cage became a rocket. Shadow appeared next to him, shocked at the transformation. Surane tried to get up and stop Xehanort. Vanitas had the lamp now and he looked at Surane with an evil look in his eye.

"Genie, I wish you will never again try to thwart Xehanort's spells."

She stopped moving instantly. All Surane could do now was watch as the rocket blasted off into the sky. A few tears slid down her cheeks.

Eraqus and Iris watched the rocket disappear into the sky. Any hope of escaping this nightmare was long gone now. Carpet flew off at top speed after the rocket. Xehanort casted a spell to transform the entire palace to his liking. Once it was complete, he grabbed Surane's arm and dragged her to the throne room. The old man had Eraqus and Iris come inside the room with Vanitas.

"You are now my servant forever! Prepare for the next thousand years in slavery!" he laughed at Surane.

This chapter started off rather slow... now it's filled with action!
