Roxas, Xion, and Namine rub their eyes once again. It's never easy going from the gummi ship to Atlantica. The three get used to swimming as mermaids once again. Eventually, the three head into Atlantica's City, and after some time, they run into flounder.

"Hi, there flounder!" Says Namine

"Oh, Hi!" Says flounder. "Ariels is a bit busy right now, so she can't really talk." Says flounder, explaining why she's not with him

"Actually, we're here to help move the statue." Says Xion

"Really!?" Says flounder, excitement filling his voice. The three nod and they make their way to the shipwreck from before.

"Okay, ready?" Roxas asks Namine and Xion nods. "Go!" Says Roxas. He and Xion cast magnet spells over to the side away from the statue. It begins to shake the rock a lot. The three swim to the opposite side of the rock and begin to push with all their might, they keep pushing, feeling as if nothing is changing, when suddenly the rock falls and lands of the sand below, they had freed the statue. The four celebrate before realizing there's still a job to do.

"Well, we've moved the rock, now we have to actually move the statue." Says Xion. Luckily the statue isn't as heavy as the rock, and they're able to carry it to where Flounder thinks Ariel would like it.

"Alright. I'll get Ariel, you three stay here." Flounder says before leaving the cave. This gives the three time to look around Ariel's little hangout spot. It seems to be a very special place for her, as it's where she collects a lot of items related to human life, from eating utensils to jewelry, it seems Ariel is fascinated with all of it. The three hear swimming coming from the cave and hide to surprise. Ariel emerges from the entrance

"Oh my~" Ariel's face lights up as she las her eyes upon the statue

"Surprise!" Roxas, Xion, and Namine say in Unison.

"You guys! You're so sweet!" Ariel says, in a good mood for the first time in a while.

"It's a nice statue isn't it?" Asks Roxas

"It looks like a statue of a prince," Says Namine

"A prince!?" Ariel seems even happier than she was just a moment ago. "I'm so happy I could sing! Oh, would you mind?" Ariel asks,

"Go on ahead." Says Namine smiling. Ariel smiles back and begins to sing a song of desire, of her collection of human goods, and her wish to be among those of the surface world. The three watch in awe as they see Ariels Passion and Talen combine into a masterpiece of song and dance

"Ariel. . ." Xion says. Ariel turns to face the three. "We're to help you, you know."

"Yeah, that's what friends do." Says Namine. Ariel smiles.

"Thanks, you guys. You really are great friends." Ariel says "I'll help you too, even if I can't leave this world, I will still help in anything you want. As thanks" Says ariel. The four smile and talk with Ariel. While doing so, Xion gets an idea.

"Ariel, I would. . . like to learn how to dance." Says Xion, out of the blue "Could you. . . show me how?" Ariel giggles a bit, and extenders her hand to Xion

"Of course." Says Ariel. She pulls Xion to the center of her collection room, above the statue, and helps instruct her on how to dance as a mermaid. Neither Roxas, Xion, nor Namine actually knew how to dance at all, so dancing as a mermaid was a whole other challenge in itself, Xion picked things up pretty quickly and was able to dance on her own. Roxas and Namine watch from below when suddenly Namine whispers something to Roxas

"You think she's pretty, right? Xion I mean." Asks Namine. Roxas is taken aback by this sudden question

"What, uh- no? Er- why do you ask?" Says Roxas, trying to hide the fact that he's growing flustered.

"Just asking, since you seem to be staring at her quite a lot." Namine comments. Roxas's face grows even redder than before. And he faces away from Namine in an attempt to hide this

"I uh-, don't know what you're talking about!" Roxas says, as quietly as possible. Namine and Flounder giggle and continues to watch Ariel teaching Xion when a sneaky little idea pops up in Namine's head.

"Hey, Ariel! Xion! Roxas wants to dance too!" Says Namine. Roxas turns to Namine with a mixture of surprise, shock, and betrayal. But he doesn't have much time to process his feelings as Namine and Flounder push him towards Ariel, who pulls him up to their level.

Ariel partners the two together and teachers them to dance in unison, as a pair. It takes time for Roxas to get the hang of things, especially compared to Xion, and it doesn't help the two are incredibly distracted, as they blush almost the entire time during the learning process, but eventually, the blushing subsides a bit, and the two dance in unison together, almost forgetting about Ariel, Namine, and Flounder. Just the two dancing. The two feel like they could do this forever. But eventually, they stop. Roxas, Xion, and Namine can't stay there forever.

"It was nice getting to talk to you again!" Namine says

"I agree. I hope it won't be too long before I see you guys again," says Ariel. They say their farewells and Roxas, Xion, and Namine return to the gummi ship.

"That was nice, wasn't it?" asked Namine

"Yeah, I really enjoyed it." Said Xion. "And I also really liked dancing with you, Roxas," Xion says, with a smile as her cheeks turn a pink color.

"Oh, uh- really? Well, I liked dancing with you two. Maybe we can do it again sometime?" asked Roxas

"I'd be glad to." Says Xion. The two stare into each other's eyes before snapping out of their trance-like state and sit in their chairs before the other noticed their face turning red again. Namine giggles, before turning her attention to the cockpit terminal.

"Where to next guys?" Namine asks. The two think before they both come to the same decision

"Twilight Town." The two say in unison.

"It's been a while since we've last been there," Xion says

"Yeah. I wonder how Hayner, Pence, and Olette have been." Says Roxas.

"Alright then. Setting course to Twilight Town!" Namine exclaimed as the ship blasted off to the familiar world.
