Hey everyone,
Sorry, this might just be the last of the Disney Saga for this series, mostly because I just can't think of any other Disney movie that I would want to see changed. Well, I can think of a fair few, but to put those changes into words on paper, might just be a little harder than I would like, so I'll keep it to this last one for now.
Enjoy Disney,

Challenge #32
The True Bride To Prince Erik

The Boat
The third day
Ariel's POV

This day has gone from bad to strange to desperate to good to terrible and the last part came with the setting of the sun. For the last three days have I been part of the life of the man I have fallen for little under a week ago now, yet just when I finally managed to tell him the truth, did the sun set, sealing my fate once and for all.
Now my legs are gone and the love of my life – not to mention the entire wedding party that had been invited to watch his scam of a wedding with the actual Sea Witch Ursula is able to see the fin that I have been born with coming out from underneath my blue dress with sky blue shirt and black sleeveless corset.
Everyone is shocked at what they are seeing, yet while I try to explain how I escaped his sight after rescuing him with just a single hand motioning for my fin, does the Sea witch laugh and chant that I am now hers as she changes back from the brunette that she was impersonating to the terrible, tentacle-legged monster that she is.

However, before she can get near me as she rushes my way, does a beam of lightning strike her from the sea, making me look over the railing and shout: "DADDY!" To which my father, King Triton, pushes the water to move him upwards and onto the side of the ship, his face a mask of fury as he glares at Ursula.
The witch recovers from the shot and grumbles: "Nice try, King Triton, but it won't help you. Your precious daughter signed a contract and she failed to uphold her end of the bargain, so now – she belongs with me." And the dark pleasure I can hear ringing through her voice as she says this makes me shiver in fear.

"Only she doesn't." Another voice suddenly says and both Ursula as well as Daddy and I look shocked as Erik steps forward and says: "This contract. It was supposed to give Ariel legs in return that she makes me fall in love with her without even saying a word, right?" The sea witch nods and then Erik shocks her as he asks:
"And what was your role according to the contract? Cause I don't believe even Ariel would be desperate enough to sign a contract that states you can intervene with her actions, which you have already done twice now. You capsized our boat yesterday and you enchanted me to marry you instead of her.
So because you went against your own contract, is the whole deal null and void. Ariel belongs to no one and whatever you had planned with her is now no longer an option. NOW GET OFF THIS SHIP!" He shouts at the end, actually drawing a sword from the scabbard at his hip as he glares at the dumbstruck witch.

I myself however feel as if a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and while I feel my lungs having trouble breathing, can I only gaze at my beloved prince with tears of pure relief and love shining in my eyes before the man smiles at me and then turns to Grimsby and says: "Grimsby, Ariel needs water, get a tub up here right now!"
The startled man mumbles some incoherent words, but then regains himself and instantly starts ordering the people working for the ship around, while Erik returns his angry glare at the still startled sea witch and honingly asks: "Still here, are you?" Making her growl before she plunges herself off the other side of the boat.

The sight of her disappearing makes my relief grow even bigger and only a minute later am I in a large, four legged, metal tub filled with delicious warm salty water that has the same amazing bubbles as the ones I had in the first bath I ever had as a human, Erik, my father and Sebastian at my side while Flounder is in the tub with me.
I pluck up some bubbles and blow them away, Erik sending me a loving smile at this and after returning his love with a smile of my own, do I turn to my daddy and say: "I'm really sorry for going against you, daddy, but – but I really do love Erik and – and I just want to be with him and – be happy. You understand, don't you?"

And while Erik looks at my father with questioning eyes, does the elder mereman sigh as he says: "I – I do, Ariel. And – and I admit that I was wrong. Not – not all humans are spineless, savage, harpooning fish-eaters, I see that now. But – but I lost your mother to humans and – I just didn't want the same to happen to you.
Yet, yet this one – yes, Ariel, he's definitely different from the rest of them." To this I can't help but smile at my daddy and then Erik confuses me as he asks: "Your Majesty, am I right to assume that everything upon this world that is under water is part of your kingdom?" My father nods and Erik takes a deep breath before he asks:
"Would you be willing to compromise? A part of the ocean, say seventy or so kilometers from the shore, part of our world to hunt in so we can continue our trade of fish and food and the rest strictly forbidden from any form of hunting or fishing, punishable by both Oceanic and Human law if anyone is indeed found doing so?"
Both Daddy and I – as well as several guests and Louie, who has come up on deck with the tub – look at the man shocked as my father asks: "You would willingly forbid your people from entering certain parts of my world?" My beloved nods and says: "My people have always had a love for the ocean, a rule like this will not disturb them.
Especially not if, in return –." Here his voice turns to the same soft and gentle tone he has been using with me for the past three days as he draws my attention by softly taking my hand in his and says: "I can ask you for your daughter's hand in marriage." Shocking practically everyone on board and making us all gasp.

"But – but Erik – she – she's a mermaid." Grimsby says to which Erik instantly retorts: "And the largest amount of my kingdom, not to mention practically all the land around my castle is made of water. We can easily build more bridges and have the rest of the land sunk under water if it means I can be with the one I love."
He then stands up and says: "Grimsby, you've been hogging me to get someone to marry for the last three months solid, you were the one who advised me to court and take Ariel around my kingdom and you were the one who's been helping me set up this entire wedding. So why halt it now when I have the bride I actually want?"
And while everyone is shocked and startled by the man's speech, can I not stop the tears of joy running down my eyes as I press both of my hands against my heart, the hand Erik just held under my other and pressed against my seashell bra before the prince turns around and smiles at us as he says: "With your permission of course, your majesty."

Daddy is just as shocked as everyone else, but then smiles and says: "I would very much like it if you could continue that plan of yours, young man, only – it won't be so that you can be with my daughter. It will be so that I can visit her when I feel the desire to do so." This confuses the both of us and then daddy pulls out his trident.
Worrying what the man could be planning, do I see him light it up with the power he gained when he became King and then touch the tub, one of the trident's points touching my arm whereas the other two cause for the water in the tub to light up and for waves of magic to swirl back and forth within the watery surface.

Yet while this happens do I feel something happening that makes my mouth drop and my eyes widen as the same feeling of regaining my fin is now feeling to be reversed and I feel the same pair of legs as I had only minutes before move themselves around in the tub before daddy pulls the trident back out and makes it vanish again.
Feeling my old legs move, I look from daddy to Erik and while the man looks startled and confused do I send another questioning glance at my daddy, his loving smile making me realize that what I just felt really happened, making new tears fall down my eyes as use both my hands to steady myself before setting my feet on the bathtub floor.
I then start to push up and to the shock of everyone around, am I now wearing a simple, white, strapless top with seashells covering my chest and with under that a beautiful white skirt with silver and crystal sparkles all over the slightly flaring fabric, which ends just under my heels and flares down in a long train.

Daddy then uses one of his hands to help me out of the tub and once I feel certain that my renewed legs can hold my weight yet again, do I quickly hug the man, whispering how much I love him as he holds me with his strong arms before I turn around and practically jump the love of my life, Erik laughing as he hugs me.
And then, while Flounder, Sebastian and Scuttle all smile and cheer for my father's actions and while the people around us applaud for our happy reunion, does Daddy make the whole day absolutely perfect as he turns to Grimsby and asks: "May I ask what we are waiting for? It may be a different bride, but this stays a wedding, no?"
And ten minutes later has my day officially ended as I lie in bed with the love of my life, Erik having had a bit of an issue as he explained how humans celebrated their wedding night, yet the love I feel coming from my new husband as he holds me in his sleep makes me ecstatic. For I am Ariel, Queen of the Land, princess of the Ocean.

And the true bride to Prince Erik.


Hey everyone,
Well, I will be honest, there will be a few more Disney based challenges that will come in the coming months, but once I am done with all of the story ideas I have often based on what I saw in Disney movies will I go back to my all time favorite: Harry Potter. I will also start following topic that is currently very popular: Dark Harry.
What does this mean? It means Harry will go against any of the following people: Ron, Hermione, multiple Weasleys, the Houses that slighted him in the past, Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, Voldemort, Pettigrew and perhaps a few others based on the stories I have in mind. And finally will most of them be crossovers.
That's it for now, enjoy,
