Genie walked in, when he noticed Iago in Al's fist.
"You're choking me, Kid."Iago said.
Jasmine put her hand on Aladdin's arm.
"Aladdin, aren't you being a bit rough on him?"
Genie stepped up, and pulled Iago out of Aladdin's fist.
"Thanks, Genie."said Iago.
"What else did you hear, Iago?"demanded Aladdin.
Genie looked at Aladdin, then looked at Iago.
"The parrot's hallucinating, Al."
"Yeah, just what the Genie said."
Aladdin frowned at Genie.
"Genie, I still want to hear what Iago's hallucinating!"
"It was just...it struck me odd that the guy was so...fine with Rasoul."said Iago.
"Genie, go get Rasoul."said Aladdin.
In the dungeons, the other guards looked up to see Rasoul arrive.
"How have things been going here?"asked Rasoul, looking at the other guards. "Have you been doing exactly as you should during my absence?"
"Things have been fine."said Hakim.
"Well, it's the least I expect after you little people have been working under me for such a long time. That you learn to do your jobs properly."he said.
The other guards looked at Rasoul as though wanting to kill him, while he turned around and slicked his hair in front of the mirror.
"So, now thanks to my efforts, the Sultan's children are back in the Palace, safe and sound."he said, as he looked in the mirror. "I suppose I shall probably get a promotion this time. I probably won't be down here very long."he sighed. "Unfortunately, it seems that none of you are appropriately trained to take my place, and you shall have to lean on someone else."
One of the other guards entered the room.
"Captain Rasoul."he said. "The Sultan would like to see you in the thrown room."
"Well, there you go."said Rasoul as he got up, and put on his turban to make himself look more presentable. "I will probably receive the promotion now."
He walked out of the dungeon, leaving the other guards enraged.
"At least we wont' have to put up with him anymore."spat Fazal behind Rasoul's back.
Rasoul walked into the throne room.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Now what is this about you treating with criminals!"exclaimed Aladdin.
"Aladdin!"exclaimed Jasmine. "Don't you think you're going too far!"
"I don't understand."said Rasoul, trying to look bewildered. "I do not see why you are accusing me of such an action. I merely serve the royal family. I have never done anything else."
"Of course."said Jasmine, nodding. "What would any of the guards win by doing such a thing!"
Aladdin simply glared at Rasoul, and Rasoul glared back.
"May I be excused?"he asked, coldly.
"Yes."said Jasmine.
After he was gone, she turned to Aladdin.
"Now, why would you accuse anyone withing the Palace of such a thing!"she exclaimed.
"I just don't see how that guy could have broken in with no one seeing him and taken Ilyas, Fahriha and Rakim! And then, asking for my dad to turn himself in in exchange for them!"
"Perhaps we could still get your dad back, Al."said Genie.
"Um, I don't think that's a good idea."said Iago. "I mean, the guy's huge! And he almost killed me! And the plucked out my feathers! And almost broke my beak!"
"Enough, Iago."said Jasmine.
"Do you suppose we could, Genie?"asked Aladdin, hopefully.
"I guess we could try."said Jasmine, nodding.
Rasoul threw open the door to the dungeon. He walked passeed the other guards, angrily. He had always hated that street rat! And now he was accusing him of dealing with criminals! Did he think he was just like him! Keeping criminals inside the Palace! And now he was blaming him for what happened! The only one to blame was himself! The other guards watched as Rasoul threw open doors and slammed them shut.
"Looks like no promotion."said Hakim.
