Morning have already come, Madison has already woken up again. She can hear the ocean waves and the seagulls squawking but then heard a familiar squawking.
"Ariel! Ariel, wake up! Wake up! I just heard the news."
Madison looked up and saw Scuttle flying in. Ariel opened her eyes from her sleep and looked at Scuttle.
"Morning, Scuttle. What news are you talking about." said Madison as she stretched her arms out.
"Congratulations, kiddo, we did it!"
"What is this idiot babbling about?" Sebastian yawned.
"Right - as if you two didn't know, uh? The whole town's buzzin' about the prince gettin' himself hitched this afternoon!" said Scuttle.
Madison looked at him in confused along with Ariel and Sebastian.
"You know, he's getting married! You silly side walker! I just wanted to wish you luck. I'll catch you later, I wouldn't miss it!" he said and flew out of the window.
Madison looked at Ariel as she looked excited. She quickly got out of bed and kiss Sebastian and then hugged Madison. She looked at her hair as she fixing it and then exit the room.
"Ariel, wait up!" Madison spoke as she ran after her along with Sebastian.
Madison finally caught up with her as the two ran down the stairs and head to the main hall but then they stopped as they saw Eric, Grimsby, and some mysterious woman.
"Well, uh, Eric. I-it appears that I was mistaken. This mystery maiden of yours does in fact exist. And... and she is lovely." said Grimsby.
Madison and Ariel hid behind the pillar and watch as Sebastian came and heard what was happening.
"Congratulations, my dear." said Grimsby as he held the mysterious girl's hand.
"We wish to be married as soon as possible." said Eric.
That really shocked Ariel and Madison just looked at her in worry.
" Oh, yes of course, Eric, but... but these things do take time you know..."
"This afternoon, Grimsby. The wedding ship departs at sunset." said Eric.
"Oh... oh, very well, Eric. As you wish."
Ariel felt devastating of hearing the news and head back to her bedroom, crying while Madison quickly ran after her.
Late afternoon, Madison and Ariel watched the ship leave. Sailing away from the pier. Ariel was leaning on the pier, crying. Madison wrapped her arms around her friend, trying to comfort her while Sebastian and Flounder sadly looked at Ariel.
"I'm so sorry, Ariel." Madison whispered as she let a single tear streaming down her cheek.
"It's no use... Once the sun sets, she'll turn back into a mermaid and the sea witch will have her." said Flounder.
"We won't let her." said Madison as she looks at the flounder.
"But Maddie. Ursula's too powerful." said Sebastian.
"Not with this." she replied as she shows him the necklace. "This and necklace and I will protect her. We all will."
"Don't forget that scream of yours." said Flounder.
"Right. That sonic scream."
Ariel looked at her friends and smiled knowing that she feels safe until...
"Ariel! Ariel!" a voice cried out. Everyone looks up and Scuttle flying by in panic until he landed on the pier.
"Scuttle, what's wrong?" Madison asked.
"I was flying, I wa- of course I was flying. An'... I s... I saw that the watch... the witch was watchin' a mirror, and she was singin' with a stolen set o' pipes!"
The girls looked confused, even Sebastian was being impatient until Scuttle grabbed him.
"Do you hear what I'm tellin' you? THE PRINCE IS MARRYING THE SEA WITCH IN DISGUISE!" he yelled and that shocked everyone.
"Are you sure about this?" the crab questioned as he was not believing him.
"Have I ever been wrong? I mean when it's important!"
"What are we gonna do?!" Flounder questioned.
Madison looked at the ship but looked at sun. She remembered Ursula's voice saying the sun will set on the third day until she heard a splash. Madison looked in the ocean and saw that Ariel was in there. Her necklace started to glow, and she dives in, turning into a mermaid again.
Sebastian cut the rope with his claw and barrels went floating on the ocean.
"Ariel, grab on to that. Flounder, get her to that boat as fast as your fins can carry you." he said.
"I'll try." said Flounder as he grabbed the rope and starts carry Ariel.
"Madison go with those two. If the sea witch's eels are around, protect them."
"Will do." she replied.
Madison swam around with them, making sure if any danger. She remembers this scene that Sebastian is getting the sea king while Scuttle was finding recruits to stall the wedding.
Madison looked around seeing if anything danger coming by until she spotted something glowing and it's getting larger. She looked carefully at them until she saw... Flotsam and Jetsam! They're coming straight towards them.
She let out a loud scream and the sonic waves hit the two, making them go backwards. Madison quickly swam to the surface and saw that they're almost to the ship.
"Guys, we need to move quickly. The eels are trying to distract us." she said.
"Don't worry Ariel. We... we're gonna make it. We're almost there." said Flounder as he kept on swimming.
Madison went back under the water to check to see if the eels were back but no sign of them. Not seeing the glowing eyes.
Finally, they reached to the ship. Ariel starts climbing up onto the ship like last time along with Madison. As they reached to the top, they saw something in shock. The wedding was a catastrophe. Seals, birds, lobsters, starfishes, and dolphins were attacking the bride until she was now strangling Scuttle.
Madison lowers herself down into hiding, not letting everyone see her as a mermaid but as she saw Max biting the woman, the shell necklace went flying and shattered but also heard the singing voice that was Ariel's. The voice flows back to her, and Ariel finally sang the last note.
"Ariel?" Eric spoke.
"Eric!" Ariel finally spoke as Max ran to her.
"You... you can talk." he said and ran to her, "You're the one!"
"Eric! Get away from her!" the woman spoke but it sounds like Ursula's.
"It... it was you all the time."
"Oh, Eric, I... I wanted to tell you." said Ariel as she leans close to him as she was about to kiss until she gasps and fell.
Madison looked at the sky and sun was gone.
'Oh no!' her mind spoke and looked back to see Ariel as a mermaid again.
"You're too late!" the woman exclaimed and laugh, "You're too late!"
Lightning flashed at the woman who was really Ursula, turned back into her sea witch form. She starts crawling towards the little mermaid and grabbed her.
"So long, lover boy." she said to the prince and dive into the water with Ariel.
Madison dive into the water to follow the two until the eels came back coming towards her. Suddenly, her necklace glow and it blasted beams at the two, blinding them with the light. Madison was now close to them but as she saw Ariel looking at her, she was shaking her head.
Madison understood what she meant and stopped but she decided one thing, bring Eric for help.
