Hello, my dear comrades! It is I – Rocco151… Ready to bring you the next chapter of Chains of Destiny! It is time we visit Atlantica and put a stop to Ursula's plans for domination of the sea! Oops, spoilers.
Also, Glenn – one of my readers… I will do what you asked me to – time for some jealously Maka and Levy… And for those who are asking me… Yes, I will do the full Kingdom Hearts/Soul Eater fanfiction series.
Happy? Good… Let's get started – I do not own Kingdom Hearts, Soul Eater or Fairy Tail – they are owned by Tetsuya Nomura, Atsushi Okubo and Hiro Mashima.
Chapter 25 – An Atlantic Welcome.
After finishing business in Halloween Town, the group returned to their Gummi Ship and began discussing where they should go next.
"How many worlds have we've visited at this point?" Sora asked on the computer monitor.
"Well… we've completed Wonderland, Olympus Coliseum, Deep Jungle, Agrabah, Monstro and Halloween Town… So far, we've visited six worlds and locked 5 keyholes… The one for Olympus Coliseum – we have no idea where it is." Maka said.
"I see. How many worlds do we have left to visit, by the way?" Sora asked.
"We've got about three more worlds to go." Lucy said.
"Sora and Maka, where shall we go next? You choose." Donald said.
"What are our options?" Maka asked.
"Well… there is a world very close to that big whale Monstro called Atlantica and there is a world right after Halloween Town. Where do you two want to go?" Goofy asked.
"Atlantica sounds like an interesting place to visit… Who knows? There might be a new enemy for us to fight there." Sora said.
"I actually agree with Sora on this one. Let's go and visit Atlantica." Maka said.
"Okay. Setting course for Atlantica now!" Donald said.
After shooting down several Heartless ships and flying for a long time… the group finally arrived at the place called Atlantica which turned out to be a city built underwater. Everyone had surprised looks on their faces.
"This is the world known as Atlantica. Okay, everybody. Prepare for landing." Donald said.
"Land where exactly?" Sora asked.
"In the sea? Are you crazy, Donald?" Maka asked.
"We'll drown or worse – go down with the ship and sleep with the fishes!" Lucy said.
"Not with my magic, we won't. Just leave it to me." Donald said, as he used his magic to change the appearance of the group.
After a couple of minutes, the group entered the underwater world of Atlantica, but their appearance had changed.
Sora was still a complete human, but he was completely shirtless and had a blue dolphin tail.
Maka was still a human as well, but she was also shirtless. She had a red bra and light purple tailfin.
Donald was still a duck, but his lower legs were now light blue octopus tentacles.
Goofy was the only one who's appearance had changed completely. His head was still there, but he had the body of sea turtle with a green shell and black flippers.
Lucy was still a human as well, but she was also shirtless. She had a light blue and white bra while her tailfin was completely dark blue.
And, lastly – Levy was still a human as well, but she like the rest of her friends was completely shirtless. She had a black and white bra and a tailfin with the same color.
The children examined their new appearances, while Donald was upside down with his arms crossed. Goofy in the meanwhile was trying his best to learn how to swim.
"So, what do you guys think about our new appearances?" Sora asked his group.
"This is so awesome! I've always wanted to dress-up as a mermaid!" Levy said with a smile.
"Me too! We're like mermaid princesses! What do you think, Lucy?" Maka asked.
Lucy turned her attention towards the two girls and said. "I guess we do look pretty cute as mermaids… Hey, guys. Are you okay?"
Maka and Levy had shocked looks on their faces. It seems something interesting caught their eyes while they continued looking at Lucy.
"Guys, why are you looking at me in a funny way?" Lucy asked.
Maka and Levy turned around and started whispering with each other. Lucy, on the other hand was completely confused.
"Huh… That was weird. I wonder what made them look at me in a funny way? Strange…" Lucy thought to herself, as she tried to figure out why her two female friends were staring at her with shocked looks on their face.
Meanwhile…
"What the hell, Levy? Did you see how big Lucy's breasts were?" Maka whispered in a very angry tone.
"Yeah. I can't believe this! Why does Lucy always have to get the good things like big breasts and stuff? It's not fair, damn it!" Levy whispered angry to Maka.
"I know! Just look at my breasts! They're… They're so goddamn small!" Maka whispered to her friend. Maka was completely right – her breasts were very little!
"Oh, come on… They aren't that bad." Levy whispered to her friend.
"How would you know?" Maka whispered to her friend.
"Well… I… I…" Levy whispered, as she started thinking about how to cheer Maka up. However, it was no use – the two girls were obviously jealous of Lucy's big breasts and from this situation there was no exit…
"Hey, guys. I think someone is coming." Sora called out to the two girls. They stopped talking with each other and looked forward to see an older girl with long red wavy hair, wearing a purple bra on her upper body and a green tailfin. By her side were a yellow fish with blue stripes, flippers and a tailfin. Both were swimming towards the group.
"Come on, Sebastian!" The girl said to a small red crab with yellow eyes called Sebastian who was trying to catch up to his companions.
"Ariel, wait! Slow down! Don't leave me behind!" Sebastian called out to the girl called Ariel.
The crab came face to face with Donald's angry look and screamed. He swam away in fear and hid behind Ariel.
"Relax, Sebastian. They don't look like one of them. Right, Flounder?" Ariel asked the fish called Flounder who was also hiding behind the mermaid.
"I don't know. There's something weird about them." Flounder said.
"What do you mean by that?" Maka asked with a nervous laugh.
Ariel swimmed around Sora and Maka and got a good look at them.
"They do seem… a little different. Where are you from?" Ariel asked them.
"Oh! We're from… an ocean very far away." Maka answered her question.
"Yeah, unfortunately – we're new to these water and we haven't exactly gotten used to it." Sora said while laughing nervously.
"Oh, I see. In that case… Sebastian can show you how we swim around here." Ariel suggested, but Sebastian didn't like this.
"Ariel, King Triton will not like this!" Sebastian said, shaking his head.
Ariel rolled her eyes and said with a smile. "Oh, don't worry."
"Easy for you to say… Okay, it's time you learn how to swim properly. Practice swimming with Flounder. Try to tag him. All right. Begin." Sebastian said.
The group started swimming towards Flounder in a very nice game of tag. After a few minutes, the group got the hang of swimming.
"Good job. Now let's move onto self-defense." Sebastian said.
"Sebastian!" Ariel said, as she pointed at strange jellyfish like creatures.
"The Heartless!" Levy said, as she took out her Keyblade.
"Lovely…" Maka said, as she took out her weapon.
"Class is over. Good luck!" The crab said, as he swam furiously into a nearby clamshell with Flounder and closed it. Ariel, on the other hand hid in a nearby cave.
"Okay, guys! Let's get rid of them quickly!" Sora said.
"Right!" The rest said.
The Heartless attacked with their spinning tentacles, but Sora and Maka used their Keyblade to deliver a couple of hits, Levy and Donald both casted Blizzard at them while Goofy used his shell for fighting them. Lucy, unfortunately didn't have any good weapons to use against them, but her tailfin made for a perfect weapon. She destroyed two Heartless Jellyfish with it.
After a couple of minutes, the Heartless were eventually destroyed. Ariel came out of the cave and swimmed back to the group.
Sora, Maka and Levy used their Keyblades to open up the clamshell. Sebastian and Flounder came out of it after looking around to make sure it was safe.
"Those creatures chased us here." Ariel said.
"Oh, no! Those monsters might be heading for the palace, too!" Sebastian said.
"We'd better head back right away!" Ariel said.
"But, wh-what if we run into more on our way?" Flounder asked nervously.
"We can help you." Maka said with a smile.
"Yep. We'll protect you." Sora said.
"Really? Thank you!" Ariel said with a smile.
"So, which way do we need to go to head to the palace?" Lucy asked.
"These markers will lead us there. We won't get lost if we follow them. So, shall we get going?" Ariel said.
The group nodded and started swimming towards the palace. Along the way, however they were pursued by the Heartless. The group defeated some of them and continue on their way towards the palace.
Soon, they entered the city which Ariel called Atlantica. More Heartless showed up, but the group defeated them and entered the throne room.
The Heartless weren't going to give up and just when they were about to attack the group… A lightning bolt obliterated them.
"That was too close." A familiar to Ariel voice said. The group swam to the throne room and saw a merman with a long white hair, a bearded mustache, a golden crown on his head, bracelets on his hand and a blue tailfin. In his hands, he held a triton.
"As long as I have my trident, I will not tolerate those creatures inside this palace." The merman said while he looked at Ariel.
"Daddy!" Ariel said with a smile, as she swam up to him.
"Oh, Ariel! When will you listen? It's dangerous out there!" The merman said sternly.
Ariel looked away in guilt.
"Strange creatures lurk outside." The merman said.
He then took a good look at the group with those stern eyes of his.
Sebastian cleared his throat and spoke. "Behold. You swim before the ruler of the seas: His Majesty, King Triton."
"And who are they?" Triton asked.
"They helped us fight off those creatures." Ariel explained.
"They don't look familiar." Triton said in a suspicious tone.
"We're from an ocean very far away." Sora explained.
"Yes, we've just arrived recently, Your Majesty." Maka explained.
"Oh. Is that so?" Triton asked.
"Yup. We came to find the Keyhole." Goofy said which shocked Triton.
"The what?" Triton asked in a stunned tone.
"What's that?" Ariel asked in a curious tone.
"A-hyuck! Well, it's a-" Goofy was cut off by an angry Triton.
"There's no such thing! Certainly not here!" Triton said angrily.
"But, Daddy…" Ariel was cut off by Triton again.
"Ariel, not another world! You are not to leave the palace. Is that clear?" Triton asked.
Ariel was about to speak, but she couldn't find the strength to open her mouth and left the throne room with a sad look on her face.
"Ariel, wait!" Maka called out to her as she and the other swam after her.
After they left the throne room, King Triton sighed and said. "Perhaps I'm being too strict… I'm just concerned for her safety."
Sebastian watched the group swim away and then turned his attention towards Triton. "Of course, Your Majesty. But I must admit, now I'm quite curious about this Keyhole." The crab said, but was stopped by Triton.
"That need not concern you, Sebastian. Have you anything else to report?" Triton asked.
"Just as you suspected, Your Majesty, they seem to be coming to be coming from Ursula's grotto." Sebastian said.
"I knew it. That sea witch is up to no good." Triton said, as he stroked his long white beard.
"I see exile from the palace has taught her nothing." Triton said.
"Yes, she poses serious danger." Sebastian said.
"And I told you to keep Ariel away from such danger, did I not?" Triton said in a very stern tone.
"Your Majesty, please, I, uh…" Sebastian stopped talking after that.
Meanwhile, the group left the throne room and returned to the city where Ariel had tears in her eyes.
"Are you okay, Ariel?" Maka asked, as she approached her.
"Yes, I'm fine. I'm sorry about my father – he's always overprotective of me." Ariel said.
"Oh, trust me… I know how you feel." Maka said knowing full well how overprotective her father Spirit was. Still, she did miss him a lot…
"What do we do now?" Sora asked.
"Can you all follow me to my grotto? I have something I want to show you all." Ariel asked.
The group nodded and followed Ariel. Soon, they were lead to a small rock on the wall outside the city.
"Here it is. Let's remove the rock and I'll show you my secret." Ariel said.
The group and Ariel removed the rock and entered the mermaid's grotto which was filled with different objects from the human world.
"Wow! Where did you find this stuff?" Maka asked in an astonished tone.
"This is all the things Flounder and I've collected while exploring the sea. I think it's all from the outside world." Ariel said.
"Someday, I'm going to see what's out there. I want to see other worlds. Does that sound strange?" Ariel asked.
"No. Not at all. I used to feel the same way." Sora said.
"Used to?" Ariel asked.
"I mean… I still do." Sora said.
"Oh, I see. Hey, I have an idea! Why don't we try looking for that Keyhole you were talking about?" Ariel suggested.
"But, Ariel. What about your father? What will he-" Maka was cut off by Ariel.
"Oh, he treats me like a little girl. He never wants to let me do anything. He just… He just doesn't understand." Ariel said. Unbeknownst to anyone, Sebastian was currently listening with a sad look on his face.
"Okay, we understand. You can come with us, but you need to be very careful." Maka said.
"Of course. I'll be fine as long as you guys are with me." Ariel said.
"Okay. So, shall we get going?" Sora asked and everybody nodded.
The group and Ariel left, but unbeknownst to the group… two green skinned eels with one golden eye were spying on the group with their wicked grins.
(Meanwhile – in a nearby lair…)
"Those impudent fools will never find the Keyhole." A female voice said. It was the wicked sea witch Ursula – she had purple skin, straight-up white hair, black octopus tentacles and make-up. As of this moment, she was currently looking at an image of the group going to a different location from her cauldron.
Suddenly, the image of Ariel floated out of the cauldron due Ursula's hand movements.
"But the girl could prove useful. And I've got the Heartless on my side. Triton, my old friend… Your day is coming." Ursula said with sadistic laughter.
(Back with the group…)
The group exited the group and noticed a poor defenseless dolphin being attacked by the Heartless. Sora, Maka and Levy attacked using their Keyblades, Donald casted Thunder, while Goofy used his shell to deliver a couple of hits. Lucy and Ariel used only their tailfin. The first wave of Heartless fell, but more showed up out of the blue.
Sora casted Blizzard, Maka and Levy both attack with their Keyblades, Goofy with shell, Donald casted Thunder while Lucy and Ariel delivered a couple of hits using their flippers.
The Heartless were defeated and the dolphin was saved.
"Are you okay?" Maka asked, as she petted the dolphin who squeaked in joy.
"The dolphin is fine." Maka said, as the dolphin swam to a cave.
"Where is that dolphin going to?" Sora asked.
"Only one way to find out." Lucy said.
The group followed the dolphin and found him standing near the entrance of the currents they couldn't get through.
"There you are! Why did you enter the cave?" Ariel asked and the dolphin pointed at the current ahead.
"I get it now – the dolphin wants to help us get through the currents." Maka said.
"Riding a dolphin sounds a lot of fun. Let's do it!" Levy said.
The group grabbed the dolphin as the small creature took them through the currents. Soon, they ended up in an area with a shipwreck in it. Ariel's curiosity got the better of her and decided to check it out with the group following her, but unbeknownst to them a mysterious ominous shape swam in the water above them.
Inside the ship, the group found a treasure chest and swam over to open… just then, a huge grey shark crashed through the window!
"Woah!" Maka said.
"It's a shark!" Levy yelled.
It tried to bite them, but due to its size - it couldn't get through the window. It swam away and waited for the group to exit the shipwreck.
"That was close." Maka said.
"Yeah, a few more minutes and we would have been fish food." Lucy said.
"I wonder what is in that treasure chest." Ariel asked.
"Let's find out." Sora said.
The group and Ariel opened the chest and found a crystal trident.
"Wow! That's a beautiful item!" Lucy said.
"Yes, you are right Lucy. I think it would look well in my grotto." Ariel said.
The group picked up the crystal trident and left the shipwreck. As they started making their way back towards the grotto, however – the shark came back with a vengeance.
It attempted to bite the group, however Sora and Maka attacked it first with their Keyblades, Levy used Thunder while Donald casted Blizzard at it. Goofy used his turtle shell to attack it while Lucy and Ariel used their tailfins to deliver a couple hits. After a short, but hard battle – the shark finally admitted defeat and swam away.
"Stupid shark." Levy said.
"It's all over now. Let's get out of here and go back to the grotto quickly." Sora said.
The group returned to the grotto and placed the crystal trident on a rocky impression of it on the wall.
"What do you think, Ariel?" Maka asked.
"It's perfect - I feel like my grotto is now complete." Ariel said.
"It sure looks like it." Sora said with a grin.
"So, now what?" Lucy asked.
"Now, we should get back-" Levy was then cut off by a familiar voice.
"Ariel, you've disobeyed me again!" The voice of King Triton said.
The group turned around and there he was – King Triton himself and Sebastian on the floor next to him.
"I told you not to leave the palace!" Triton said in a stern tone.
Just then, to his shock and anger – he saw the crystal trident on the wall and raised his weapon at it.
"Daddy, no!" Ariel said, as she tried to plead with him.
However, it was no use – Triton destroyed the crystal trident on the wall using a lightning bolt from his weapon which shocked Ariel and the group a lot.
"How could you…" Ariel asked in a sad tone, as she swam away from everyone.
Triton turned his attention towards the group mainly Sora and Maka.
"You two aren't from another ocean, right? You are from another world, correct?" Triton asked which shocked Sora and Maka a lot. How did King Triton know?
"Then you two must be the Keybearers." Triton said which made Sora and Maka more surprised.
"How did you find out?" Maka asked.
"You two may fool Ariel, but you can't fool me. You don't know your dorsal fin from your tail." Triton said.
"But, you have to understand. We only…" Maka was cut off by Triton again.
"I expected better results from the daughter of Kami Albarn, but I guess I was wrong…" Triton said which shocked Maka a lot. The King also knew her mother!? How many relationships did her mother make in the past? More questions that she needed to solve…
"You know Maka's mother?" Sora asked.
"Yes! But, that is not important right now. As the wielders of the Keyblade, you must already know… One must not meddle in the affairs of other worlds." Triton said.
"But, please…" Sora pleaded with him.
"No. You two have violated this principle. The Keybearers shatters peace and brings ruin." Triton said.
"Hey, Sora and Maka aren't like that!" Levy said while defending Sora and Maka.
"Yeah, who gives you the right to judge our friends like that?" Lucy said angrily.
"Sora and Maka have done nothing, but fight the Heartless to protect the people!" Donald said.
"I thank you for saving my daughter. But there is no room in my ocean for you two or your keys." Triton said and then he left.
Sora and Maka looked at their Keyblades with sad looks on their faces.
"Maybe… Maybe he's right…" Maka said with a sad tone.
"Hey, don't listen to him. You two are an awesome team and a good couple." Lucy said with a smile.
"Triton doesn't even know heroism even if it kicked him in the face." Donald said.
(Meanwhile…)
In a nearby cave, Ariel was crying due to what Triton did. Just then, the two eels that were spying on the group in the grotto showed up.
"My, my, the poor child suffers such deep sorrows." One of the eels called Flotsam said.
"What a pity. If only there were something we could do…" The second eel called Jetsam said.
Both of them started swimming around her in circles.
"Wait. Maybe she can be of some help." Flotsam said.
"Yes. Maybe she can be of some help to you." Jetsam said.
"Who're you talking about?" Ariel asked.
They started swimming upwards in a spiral.
"Oh, she would surely make help you." Flotsam said.
"She'd make all your dreams come true." Jetsam said.
"Ursula can help…" Both eels said at the same time.
Just then, in a flourish of ink – Ursula appeared.
"You called, my dear?" Ursula said with a smile.
"You're Ursula. I was just wondering if-" Ariel was cut off by Ursula.
"It's all right. Helping others is what I live for. Let me guess. You wish to see other worlds. That shouldn't be too hard. After all, your new friends came from another world." Ursula said to which Ariel became surprised.
"What?" Ariel asked in astonished tone.
"You see – they had special help. Those three mysterious keys. They are the reason why your new friends are here in this world." Ursula said while Ariel looked towards the sea floor.
"Now, now. Cheer up, sweetie. You have something special, too." Ursula said with a smile.
The eels swimmed around them as Ursula leaned closer to tell Ariel about what her special thing was.
(A few seconds later…)
"Now listen carefully. I think the Keyhole they seek is somewhere in the palace." Ursula said.
Ariel at this time was currently swimming inside the palace throne room with Ursula following her.
"Now, my dear, if you can take me there without your daddy knowing…" Ursula said.
Ariel turned around as Ursula entered the throne room.
"I can help you get to these other worlds you long for." Ursula said.
Ursula saw the trident floating behind the throne and smiled evilly. She snatched the trident and started laughing.
"The trident is mine at last! And I couldn't have done it without your help, my dear." Ursula declared to Ariel and Triton who was sitting on the throne, but looked terribly weak.
"Ursula, no! I didn't want this!" Ariel said.
"Why not? Aren't you tired of following your dear daddy's orders?" Ursula said, as the eels swimmed around her.
"Oh, yes. We had a deal, didn't we? Time for a little journey – to the dark world of the Heartless!" Ursula said.
"We cannot find the Keyhole." Flotsam said.
"The Keyhole is not here." Jetsam said.
"What?" Ursula said, but just then – she noticed the group coming up behind her.
"Why, we have some company. I'm afraid you're a little late, slowpokes!" Ursula said.
She raised the trident and disappeared in a burst of ink before the group had a chance to stop her.
"No! We lost her!" Sora said.
"We'll find her, Sora. Don't worry." Maka said.
"Daddy!" Ariel said while she looked at her father in worry.
"The trident… We must get it back." The king said in a weak tone.
"Of course. Let's go, guys." Maka said.
The group nodded and started swimming out, but Ariel stopped them.
"Wait, I'm going with you! My father is hurt and it's all my fault. I have to stop Ursula!" Ariel said.
"Of course, Ariel. Stay close behind us." Maka said with a gentle smile.
"That's right. I'm right behind you, Ariel." Sebastian said, as he followed them.
"Before you go, Keyblade Wielders… Here is what you need to do: To defeat Ursula, you must strike her cauldron with your magic. Please, stop her and get the trident back." Triton said.
"Right, thanks for the advice." Sora said.
"Let's go and find Ursula!" Maka said.
The group left the throne room and the palace…
Damn! It's finally done – Part 1 of the Atlantica Arc is finished and I can finally post it on ! Oh, boy… What a day.
Anyways, Glenn – I hope you enjoy the jealous part in which Maka and Levy react towards Lucy's big chest and mainly her boobs.
Right, it seems the hunt is on to find Ursula, get the trident back and save Atlantica… Will the group and Ariel defeated the Sea Witch and close the Keyhole? Find out in part 2 of the Atlantica Arc – Stop the Witch Ursula!
Until next time, my wonderful audience… I bid you, farewell! Bye!
