~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Where do we go now?"
"How should I know?"
Ursula had seemingly vanished into oblivion. For 2 hours, the team of exhausted sea creatures had searched, and yet found no evidence of the sea witch anywhere in the sea.
"Well, I'm ready to give up. Anyone else?" Donald asked.
"We can't give up now!" Goofy cried.
"C'mon, I know somewhere else we can look! No, wait, we already looked there..." Ariel moaned. At the moment, the team was resting on a group of rocks, thinking of where else they could go.
"Do you think Sebastian would know?" Corita asked, idly flicking her curly tail in the pale ocean water.
"I doubt it." Ariel said. The group turned and stared at the little crab, who was fast asleep on the largest rock, snoring peacefully.
"Well, I guess we're stuck." Sora said, staring upwards towards the ocean's top, where the sun's rays were filtering downwards. A small bit of the sky could be seen from their position on the rocks. A low sigh emitted from each of their mouths, and they sunk into a deep state of stupor. Corita's eyes flickered open and closed. The rays of the sun felt good on her cool face. Yawning lightly, this feeling reminded her of something that happened long ago...
"Hey, Sora!"
"What is it?"
"Look up at the sky!"
"It's all dark..."
"Open your eyes, silly! Look at that cloud up there!"
"You're still gazing at clouds, Corita?"
"It's shaped like a star!"
"A star?"
"Yeah! Remember that day on the Destiny Islands, the day before the storm?"
"Yup...I saw a cloud that looked like a coconut...or Riku's head."
"I think it was more of a Riku's headish shape."
"Very funny."
An akward silence followed. The memory of the happy days on the Destiny Islands had silenced the twins, locking them inside of themselves remembering their past lives. The long moments that passed were just as boring as the last, and they all drifted to sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A sudden burst of water woke Corita up. While still underwater, water travelling at fast speeds can be very annoying when you're awake, especially when you're asleep.
"Hey! Sora, stop it!"
"I didn't do it!"
"Sure you didn't!"
"Donald, shut up!"
"Hey, look!" Ariel said, stopping the argument instantly. Drifting in front of the rocks was a small dolplin, not even fully grown. It was staring at them with pleading in its eyes, and making soft dolphin squeaks.
"I think he wants us to follow him!" Ariel said, swimming beside the dolphin, who had begun to swim away. "Wake up, Sebastian!" Goofy said, poking the crab awake, who had remained asleep, protected from the fast speed of the water by Ariel's back.
"No...mommy...I want to write the symphony..." Sebastian muttered as he rolled over, still asleep.
"Aw, forget it! Give him to me!" Donald said, grabbing the little crab and holding him while they all swam forward. The small dolphin led them to the area of swift currents, and they had to constantly refer to "Mermaid Kick - Kick like a Mermaid!" to get through it.
"What is it, boy? What's here?" Ariel asked the dolphin. The dolphin gave a series of small squeaks, and hung his head low.
"What is it? What did he say?" Corita asked.
Ariel shrugged. "I have no clue. I just do that for the effect."
"Great. This should be fun." Sora muttered.
"Wait! We should stock up on potions and ethers just in case!" Corita cried.
"Why would we do that?" Donald asked.
"What if it's Ursula?"
"Why would she be hiding here?"
"Fine, but if anything happens, you're going down, Duck Boy!"
"Corita, if we meet anything in their even resembling Ursula, I'll give you ALL my ethers!" Donald said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Pay up, Donald." Corita said meekly.
"You poor, insolent fools!" Ursula's booming voice echoed. They had entered a large cavern, and Ursula was using some kind of dark power to make herself grow gigantic. "I rule the seas now!"
"Watch out!" Sora cried, pushing them out of the way of several tentacles, now growning rapidly.
"The sea and all its spoils bow to my power!" She screeched as Donald reluctantly handed Corita his ethers. The little dolphin was still circling around Ariel, and Goofy was next to Sora, weapons in hand.
"What am I supposed to do for the whole battle?" Moaned Donald.
"Do what the dolphin's doing!" Corita said, pointing at the little dolphin. He had begun circling around Ursula's head, pecking at her giant forehead and eyes. Grumbling, Donald swam towards him. Sora and Goofy also swam forth once Ursula had reached her top size, and Ariel swam over to the dolphin.
"All right, let's do this!" Corita said, swimming towards the giant sea witch.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Corita! Give me an ether!"
"No!"
"Please?"
"No!"
"Please?"
"Fine, but only one."
"Gee, thanks!"
"It was a one-time thing."
"Right."
The battle was raging. The little dolphin and Donald were striking Ursula's eyes, and Sora and Goofy were hitting the back of her head. Ursula, however, kept turning her head to meet the Key Bearer's blows.
"Take this!" She bellowed, unleashing giant energy beams from her eyes, which had become red and swollen. A quick peck from the dolphin stopped this, and the weakened sea witch turned towards the dolphin.
"You little..." Ursula started, lifting a giant hand to crush the dolphin.
"Pick on someone your own size!" Corita muttered, blasting a jet of boiling water, an underwater fire spell, at the giant hand.
"You'll pay for that!" Ursula bellowed, shaking her hand and reaching for Corita instead.
"Watch out!" Sora cried, pushing Corita out of the way.
"ARRGH!" Ursula screeched as she clawed at them all, but they were too swift for them. Her massive size had slowed her down, and this was a definite disadvantage underwater.
Corita felt the feeling deep inside of her that she always felt when casting a spell; the energy flowed through her and left her through her staff. A great gust of wind left her and circled around Sora.
"Thanks, Corita!" Sora said, giving her a thumbs-up, and continued to bash Ursula. However, the areo spell was malfunctioning. The water itself around Sora began to swirl, faster and faster, until Sora was completly surrounded by a small whirlpool.
"Awesome!" Sora's voice called from inside the whirlpool, and he delt another blow to Ursula.
Eventually, the sea witch began to slow down, slow down more, and then almost give up on fighting altogether. It was Donald who delt the killing blow; he had saved the ether given to him by Corita for a final blizzard spell. Darkness began to swirl around Ursula as she sunk down to the bottom of the ocean. One final cry emitted from her mouth, and the dark cloud around her settled. The sea quickly became silent, and Ariel lifted the trident from the rubble. Overhead, barely visible in the murky den, a pearl- white heart-shaped cloud passed by.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Daddy, I am SO sorry!" Ariel moaned, handing the sea king his Trident.
"It's okay, Ariel. It's my fault, too. I shouldn't have been so protective of you. I HAD to destroy the crystal trident for your saftey." King Trition said, gripping his trident firmly.
"Oh, yeah! The crystal trident! Why did you destroy it?" Corita asked.
"The crystal trident has the power to reveal the Keyhole. The Keyhole is dangerous, and I had to protect Ariel from it." King Triton answered simply.
"Daddy..." Ariel said softly.
King Triton turned to Sora. "Key Bearer, I have one final request: seal the Keyhole! My Trident also has the power to reveal the Keyhole. Will you do it?"
"Of course! That's all we had in mind in the first place!" Sora said.
"Daddy, where is the Keyhole?" Ariel asked.
"You should know better than anyone! It's in your grotto!" King Triton chucked.
"Really...Sora, let's go!" Ariel said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Now, all we do is set the Trident here!" Ariel said, lifting up the Trident in her hands. The Trident floated upwards towards the indent of the crystal trident. The crystal trident suddenly shown like new in the indent. In front of the trident, the water was bubbling. Rapidly, the ocean's water was bubbling like it was boiling hot. It finally slowed down, and revealed a transparent yet solid wall. In the wall was...
"The Keyhole!" Goofy cried happily.
"C'mon, Mr. Keyblade Master!" Corita said lightly to her brother.
"Oh, be quiet." Sora said with a slight smile on his face. The familiar beam of light emitted from the Keyblade, and with the familiar locking sound, Atlantica was safe from the Heartless.
"Tell me, Sora. You're world, what's it like?"
"Oh, about that...sorry for lying to you." Sora said.
"It's okay." Ariel said. "So many places I want to see...I know I'll make it someday!"
"Well, if you do find it, do me a favor and leave me out of it!" Sebastian said from below them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Whew! Finally!" Corita said, pulling the piece of string out of her soaking wet hair. The bottom of the gummi ship was soaking wet, and 4 masses sat in the back, covered with towels, shivering madly.
"Who knew the ocean was so c-c-cold?" Sora asked.
"C'mon, YOU'RE the Key Bearer! You're supposed to be tough!" Donald quacked.
"Aw, shut up. I'm going to dry off." Corita said, standing up. She walked into the back room of the gummi ship, still shivering. She reached for another towel when she realized that there was a strange lump in her pocket. Pulling it out, she gasped at the familar shell. It was still covered in wet sand, but she cleaned it off with her towel. Reaching deeper, she found a few more shells. Lying in her palm were 4 wet, sand- covered Thalassa Shells.
Corita stared at the familiar shells. They had been abundant on the Destiny Islands. Symbolizing good luck, they were often used as a good luck charm.
"SORA!" Corita cried, shells still in hand.
~~Sora53: Oh, the suspence! Anyway, I'm finally done with Atlantica! Do you remember the Thalassa Shells? Kairi mentions them in the beginning of the game...I had to start a whole new game and make sure I spelled "Thalassa" correctly!
