I don't own Kingdom Hearts or Frozen. They each belong to Square Enix and Disney. Alright, and here's another chapter. Now, before we begin let's reply to some reviews.
Mickol93: Thank you! Sure, I'd love to here you're suggestions.
Glenn: Thank you! Yep, they're going to try to steal from them. They won't get too far with it though.
Guest: Not even close. She'd drown without a potion. Or magic that tra forms you. Last I check, Elsa doesn't have that.
Dexter: Yep, it's one of those two... You'll see... ;)
Well with that out of the way let's get started...
Chapter 103: Poor Unfortunate Souls
Rocket, Jack and Groot swam deeper in the Kingdom, after a while Groot asked, "I am Groot?" Rocket replied, "Well, Groot... Since Ariel's old man won't let us help his kingdom and that she has some pretty valuable stuff that she has no clue what they are... We're going to take some valuable things as a service package."
"I am Groot." Groot eyes narrowed. Rocket replied, "Of coarse, we still going after the bounty on Xehanort... just after losing all that treasure on treasure planet.., we might as well make a little bonus here and there...By the way, why are you helping us Jack?"
"Captain Jack!" Jack corrected, "And while I may just want my ship back, I'm still a pirate. Savvy?" Rocket nodded, "Fair enough." Just then they heard someone clear their throat. The three turned to see Sora, Riku, Kairi, Anna, Sabine, Cap, Cloud, and Tifa with their arms crossed, Rocket laughed nervously, "Uh... hey guys... I know what it looks like... and it's not what you think."
"Oh really? Because it looks like you're going to steal from Ariel and her father." Sora replied as his eyes narrowed. Rocket replied, "Hey! If anything I'm teaching them a lesson! King Triton refused to let us help him and now he's going to lose things..."
"We're not giving up on this world! And what about Ariel?! She's our friend and even tried to help us and your going to steal from here too?!" Sora's eyes narrowed. Groot nodded, "I am Groot!"
"You're taking their side?!" Rocket asked. Groot nodded, "I am Groot!"
"I know she's our friend and I know besides the Guardians, the Avengers are the only friends friends we've ever had! But we're going to leave empty handed, if we keep going like this!" Rocket argued. Cap told him, "Heroes don't help people for money!"
"Yeah... and shouldn't the bounty on Xehanort be enough for you already?!" Kairi added. Rocket gasped, "You knew?! How?!"
"Do you think we're that dumb? We've heard you talking about it ever since you joined us!" Anna replied. Rocket argued, "It was that stupid book again wasn't it?!"
"We didn't need the book to know what you're up to." Cloud pointed out. Riku added, "You know, it's people like you that makes Triton less trusting in us."
"Now... let's rejoin the others and figure out another way to help this world and save it from the Heartless!" Sabine told them. Jack grabbed a random item from the self, "Sure, after we grab a few things." The others swam in and began to fight over it, as Sora stated, "Put it back!"
"No!" Rocket and Jack argued. After a minute of struggling, Jack and Rocket finally let go of the items and on of the items opened up and revealed an photo that Sora saw clearly, there was a younger Ariel with her father with a few other girls along with... "Mom?"
Everyone paused and turned to the old photo. Tifa picked it up, "That's... that's Areith alright." Anna asked, "Sora's birth mom?" Kairi pointed out, "It looks like a family photo." Cloud wondered, "Then what's Arieth doing on there?"
Sora just stared at the old photo as Anna turned to him, "You okay?" Sora nodded, "Y-yeah... I'm fine..."
"Alright... we need a word with Triton... or Ariel even... they might know how they know her." Riku replied. Everyone nodded, as Rocket asked, "But how? Triton refuses to even speak to us and Ariel gone's missing."
"Like you said... we need to take a look at that book..." Tifa replied...
Ariel was alone in the Undersea Garden, crying to herself, when the two devious eels arrive, Flotsam and Jetsam. Flotsam stated, "My, my, the poor child suffers such deep sorrow." They swim around her in circles as Jetsam replied, "What a pity. If only there were something we could do..."
"Wait. Maybe she can be of some help." Flotsam said. Jetsam nodded, "Yes. Maybe she can be of some help to you."
"Who're you talking about?" Ariel wondered as they start swimming upwards in a spiral. Flotsam replied, "Oh, she would surely help you."
"She'd make all your dreams come true." Jetsam continued. They then said togehter, "Ursula can help..." In a flourish of ink, Ursula appears and smiles down at Ariel, "You called, my dear?"
"Sea witch!" Ariel exclaims, shooting past Ursula. She turns and jabs an accusatory finger at the purple-skinned woman. "My father had you banished from the palace! He said that you were eating fish and merpeople!"
Ursula recoils from the redhead, looking offended at the insinuation. "Is that so?" she spits back with her hands planted defiantly on her hips. "Is that really the story they're going with? Ha! Saying such things about me, can you imagine? It's offensive, is what it is!"
Ariel cocks her head curiously. "You mean, that's not true?"
"Not a word!" Ursula swears, though the princess fails to notice that two of her tentacles are crossed. "It was all just a misunderstanding, really, nothing more! Your father and I saw differently about certain things and, well, you know how he can be when you don't follow every one of his orders to the letter."
"I was just wondering if...you can..." Ariel wondered as Ursula finished, "Help you? My dear, sweet child, that's what I do. It's what I live for. To help unfortunate merfolk like yourself. Poor souls with no one else to turn to."
"I admit that in the past I've been a nasty... They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch.. But you'll find that nowadays... I've mended all my ways... Repented, seen the light, and made a switch... true? Yes..." Ursula sang, " And I fortunately know a little magic... It's a talent that I always have possessed... And dear lady, please don't laughI use it on behalf... Of the miserable, the lonely, and depressed... Pathetic..."
"Poor unfortunate souls... In pain, in need..." An image of a skiny merman and a fat mermaid appeared as Ursula, "This one longing to be thinner... That one wants to get the girl... And do I help them?... Yes, indeed..." The images turn into a strong muscular merman and the mermaid lost her weight and they hugged each other, "Those poor unfortunate souls... So sad, so true... They come flocking to my cauldron... Crying, 'Spells, Ursula, please!'And I help them... Yes I do..."
"Now it's happened once or twice... Someone couldn't pay the price... And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals..." The images vanished as Ursula continued, "Yes I've had the odd complain... But on the whole I've been a saint... To those poor unfortunate souls..."
"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 told her. Ariel was shocked by this, "What?"
The witch swims closer to her as she continued, "But they had special help... that mysterious key and the Genie of the lamp." Ariel looks toward the sea floor sadly... she had nothing like that but Ursula told her, "Now, now. Cheer up, sweetie. You have something special, too."
The eels swim around them as Ursula leans in closely, "Now listen carefully. I think the Keyhole they seek is somewhere in the palace. With it I can give you the power to travel to other worlds. Now, my dear, if you can take me there without your daddy knowing... I can help you get to these other worlds you long for. Sp, do we have a deal?"
"If I do this, I might never see my father or sisters again." Ariel realized. Ursula pointed out, "But... you'll have your dream. Life's full of tough choices." She chuckled, "All I need is the Keyhole is... that's all I'm asking." Ursula then sang, "The worlds up there aren't easy to get to... They far and distance for anyone get to... Yet you have a chance to get this dream... And after all dear, what are dreams for?... Come on, they're just a spell all it takes... Dreams can come true with a little help from me... But I can't help you if you don't help me... we both need each other to get to these worlds... It's she who shows the way who gets to explore..."
"Come on... you poor unfortunate soul... Go ahead... Make your choice... I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got all day... It won't cost much... So just rejoice..." Ursula sang, "You poor unfortunate soul... It's sad but true... If you want to cross the bridge, my sweet... You've got the pay the toll... Take a gulp and take a breath... And go ahead and take a stroll... Flotsam, Jetsam, now I've got her, boys... The boss is on a roll... This poor unfortunate soul..."
"I'll do it." Areil nodded. Ursula grinned...
After everyone regrouped, Cap asked Namine, "Anything?" Namine shook her head, "I'm sorry, Cap but without that magic crystal... we'll need a powerful magic from this world to reveal it..."
"So... we need to take to triton either way." Kannan signed. Logan nodded, "This isn't going to be easy..."
"Maybe, I could taking to him... one overprotective father to another." Merlin suggested. Mulan shrugged, "I suppose it's worth a shot." Flounder then swam in, "Has anyone seen Ariel... I haven't seen her since she left..."
"We're about to find out..." Riku replied as Sora opened the book and looked for the right page. After a few minutes of reading, he gasped, "Oh no!"
"What is it?" Anna asked. Sora replied, "Ariel made a deal with someone who works with HYDRA... some woman named Ursula..." A familiar voice gasped, "The sea witch!"
Everyone turned to see Sebastian, Cap wondered, "You know who she is?" Sebastian nodded, "Unfortunately, yes. She was once King Triton's sister but when she started eating fish and merpeople King Triton was left with no choice but to banish her. She still causes trouble today! If Ursula get's to the palace without King Triton noticing, she can steal his magic trident and may very well destroy the world for the fun of it!"
"Then we have to get there before that happens!" Thor declared. Sora turned to the crab, "Look, I know you probably went sent to make sure we leave but we need you help if we're going to stop her."
"Usually, I'd never disobey my king... but this is an emergency! Ursula must be stopped!" Sebastian told them, "Follow me!" Everyone follow the crab, hoping they we're too late...
After Ursula snatches the trident, she laughs evilly, "The trident is mine at last! And I couldn't have done it without your help, my dear." Ariel is at the throne beside her father, who looks terribly weak. Ariel begged, "Ursula, no! I didn't want this!"
"Why not? Aren't you tired of following your dear daddy's orders?" She asked as the eels swim around them, "Oh, yes. We had a deal, didn't we? Time for a little journey... to the dark world of the Heartless!" She rasied the triton but before she could do anything, Flotsam reported, "We cannot find the Keyhole."
"The Keyhole is not here." Jetsam added. Ursula was shocked by this, "What?" She was so sure that it was in the palace. She looks behind her as Sora and the Avengers swim their way. Sora summoned his Keyblade, "There she is! Take her down!"
"Why, we have company. I'm afraid you're a little late, handsome!" She chuckles, raising the trident and vanishing in a burst of ink just as they arrive along with her eels. Rocket complained, "She got away!"
Ariel looks to King Triton, "Daddy!" Triton weekly stated, "The trident... We must get it back." He tried to get up was too week. Sora and Ariel as Sora told him, "Sir, you too wounded. We'll get the trident back for you."
"Even after what I said to you." Triton asked in shock. Sora nodded, "As long Ursula has the trident, innocent lives are in danger. We won't sit around while that happens." Sora turned to the Avengers, "Alright, let's find Ursula before she finds the Keyhole."
They start to swim out, but Ariel stops them, "Wait, I'm going with you! My father is hurt and it's all my fault. I have to stop Ursula and make things right." Sora nodded as Sebastian agreed with her, "That's right. I'm right behind you, Ariel."
"You're majesty. Sebastian told us Ursula was once your sister. Does she have any weaknesses?" Cap asked. Triton nodded, "Ursula draws power from her cauldron. To defeat Ursula, you must strike her cauldron with magic. But that will do nothing once she uses the trident's full power."
"Then we have to stop her before that happens." Iron Man replied. Triton added, "Also, if you do stop her, only an heir of the throne can weird the trident, it's dangerous for anyone else too."
"I can take it once we beat her." Ariel nodded. Sebastian told everyone, "I know where her base of oppression are, follow me..."
Ariel and the Avengers followed him as Tridon sat to himself hoping his daughter would return unharmed, unlike the one who disappeared and never returned...
And here's a good place to stop. Next time, our heroes battle with Ursula but they find out, it's easier said then done. On the bright side, their not going to be slowed by the Gameplay. Lol. Can our heroes ever hope to defeat Ursula? I hope you enjoyed the chapter, be sure to leave a review. Also, if you haven't already be sure to follow and fav. as well. See ya next time!
