I do not own Aladdin.
Enjoy!
"Y-You mean it?" said, Sultan as his daughter came to visit him in the early hours of the morning.
"I mean it" said, Jasmine. "I won't mind getting married to Prince Ali. I spent some time with Prince Ali last night and he really opened my eyes. He's not like any other man who wanted my hand in marriage"
The Sultan was shocked.
What happened!?
But.
"So you will marry him?" said, Sultan just so that it was said.
"Yes, I will marry him" said, Jasmine.
And Sultan looked really to bend over in shock before he yelled. "PRAISE ALLAH! MY DAUGHTER HAS FOUND A PRINCE!"
He danced around her before he rushed out into the hall and yelled. "MY DAUGHTER HAS FOUND A PRINCE!"
The servants turned.
"MY DAUGHTER HAS FOUND A PRINCE!" he yelled. "THERE'S GOING TO BE A WEDDING! TELL THE PEOPLE! MY DAUGHTER WISHES TO MARRY PRINCE ALI!"
They were all shocked when they heard this, but then the servants poured out of the palace and started shouting onto the streets.
"LISTEN UP!" yelled a servant. "PRINCESS JASMINE LIKES PRINCE ALI! THERE IS GOING TO BE A WEDDING!"
What?
"Wedding!?" said, one guy.
"The princess has found a husband?" said, a woman talking to her group of girls. "To think that young Prince would be the winner. I thought she would never find one"
"Not only that but I'm hearing the prince is loaded." said, the other girl. "Rich, young. Rich. He's quiet the catch. I can't wait for the Royal wedding."
"I can't wait for the Royal babies" said, the other woman.
By the time Jafar was seen, the whole kingdom was buzzing about Princess Jasmine and Prince Ali, they were making stories of how they fell in love, they were imagining the epic wedding paid by both Kingdoms, they wanted to meet their new neighbours and the Royalty of the other kingdom.
Together, the two kingdom would flourish from the union.
"What's going on?" said, Jafar seeing how the palace was in jubilation.
The Sultan stopped and said. "Princess Jasmine loves Prince Ali! Our prayers have been answered! We must start planning the wedding! We have to talk to the other kingdom"
Wedding?
Jafar tried not to laugh and said. "Sir, I don't think you should celebrate just yet" before he said. "I just heard a few things..." knowing he was planting something.
Princess Jasmine began to come out of her room into the palace hall.
"What do you mean Jafar?" said, Sultan.
"Oh...I just heard from some of his 'associates'" said, Jafar. "That the so called Prince is actually a wanted criminal and was just posing as a prince. Unfortunately he gained too much attention, trying to court the princess. I won't be surprised if he's was gone at the crack of dawn"
Slandering him even in 'death'.
The Sultan was stunned and so was Princess Jasmine.
But then they heard.
"Really, Jafar. Spreading lies about me so early in the morning?"
The moment Jafar and his bird heard that voice, their heart stopped.
It can't be.
But it was.
"Presenting Prince Ali!" shouted, an announcer too late.
They all turned to see a familiar prince and behind him were his people, Jafar looked scared to see him alive.
As he should.
"Prince Ali of Ababwa!" said, Sultan. "My future son in law!"
Prince Ali was greeted with a very energetic handshake, the man had truly suffered dealing with a daughter that rejected his suitors so strongly.
"Won't you join me and daughter for breakfast?" said, the Sultan.
"Actually..." said, Prince Ali. "I wanted to talk to you about something, and it really can't wait"
"Of course. Of Course" said, Sultan.
And Jafar seemed to feel what it was and injected by saying. "Sir, surely this could wait. The day is still young and we all need to eat food to keep our strength up"
"Nonsense, Jafar" said, Sultan. "I finally have a son in law. I can give him more than a little lean way"
And Jasmine came closer without the main three seeing her.
And then Prince Ali dropped a bomb shell.
"Sultan, are you aware that your most trusted adviser, Jafar. Tried to kill me last night?" Prince Ali said and Jasmine froze.
Everybody in the room froze.
Even Jafar froze.
"What?" said, Sultan.
"Last night, when I was escorting the Princess to her room" said, Prince Ali. "I was kidnapped and chained like a prisoner. My carpet was tied up and your so called Adviser was calling the shots. His men, knocked me out and when I came to I was being thrown off a cliff. They had me shackled to a weight to make sure I drown. If it wasn't for my royal protectors, I wouldn't be alive today"
Silence.
Jasmine was wide eyes and so was the Sultan, Jafar looked ready to save his own skin.
"Sir, you can't surely believe that I would want to hurt anybody" said, Jafar. "This prince is making up lies"
"But I have proof" said, Prince Ali, making Jafar whish he had drowned. "I have several eyewitness who can account for this. One of Jafar own men has been taking into custody and you can hear the confession from the man's own mouth yourself AND I have body harm from the shackles"
He rolled up his sleeves and they could clearly see that a noticeable part of his arm was more red than the rest of the arm.
"Now, I want to know what is being done about this because my people aren't going to put me in a place where I'm at risk of dying." said, Prince Ali.
But there was nothing but cold hard silence as everybody digested this revelation.
Jafar, had tried to murder the one prince that the Princess approved off.
"I-I. I think there has been some kind of mistake" said, the Sultan stunning them all. "I known Jafar for years. He only has Jasmine best interest in heart. Perhaps, it was somebody who tried to frame him"
"Yes," said, Jafar with a smile. "I would never do something so hideous. I only have the princess best heart in mind"
"I see" said, Prince Ali. "Then I forever cut ties with Princess Jasmine"
The whole room was stunned and shocked.
"My people knew that if I stay here, then I will die before even a wedding day is set" said, Prince Ali. " Your princess is an incredibly girl but if I marry her, than I'll be marrying him as well" he looked at Jafar who gave him a dirty look, before he noticed Princess Jasmine and said. "Goodbye Princess"
Prince Ali then got on his carpet and drove it out the double door.
Within minutes it would get out, what happened.
Prince Ali heart was heavy as he was made to go back, only to run into some kids running onto the road, and he almost toppled over them.
"YOU BRATS DARE TO STEAL FROM ME!" Yelled a man wielding a sword.
However, Aladdin saw that it was the two kid's that he had given bread to, before he was captured and put into a dungeon and saw them holding clearly stolen bread.
"Wait!" He said, making the man stop before he said. "I'll pay for these kid's bread"
His words shocked all those who heard it including the kids.
He got out a coin and flicked it to the man who caught it.
"Please give these kids a sack full of bread. I'll pay for it all" He said, shocking them once again.
Seeing the clearly real gold coin, the man suddenly smiled and said. "Right away Prince Ali"
They watched as the man hurried while smiling, packed the bread he had into a sack, before giving it to Prince Ali, who gave the grinning man a sack of gold coins.
Prince Ali jumped off his carpet and than began to slowly approach the clearly frightened kids.
"You don't have to be afraid" He said, in a gentle tone and for the first time the children eyes were opened to who he resembled.
He resembled the beggar teenage boy who gave them bread some months ago!
Prince Ali, took out some bread and said. "Do you want it? You can have it"
Even the gesture was the same.
"You're" said, the little girl and he put a finger to his lips and gave them both a shoosh, sign.
Seeing the confirmation, they took the bag and the bread.
The boy was eating the bread immediately, he had never had a single bread to himself before.
"Prince Ali..." He heard.
"Where are you parents?" Prince Ali said.
"We don't have any" said, the little girl.
"We'll, do you want to come with me to a place where you can eat whatever you want?" He said, stunning the two of them and those who heard.
"Does such a place exists?" said, the little girl.
Prince Ali nodded and said. "Do you want to come with me? I'll introduce you to Chicken and cheese. I'll introduce you to so many other foods"
The children were shocked but he did just pay for a bag filled with bread, before the boy said. "I want to go. I want to go!"
"We'll, let me introduce you to my carpet." He said, as he turned and the carpet took a clear attitude stance.
The children were amazed, before he helped them on it.
Prince Ali and the two rode the carpet to the place he was staying.
Those who had watched, had been shocked by the young prince's kindness, how many of the so called Prince's that had entered into the kingdom, would do that for children who did not even have clothes that weren't torn at the bottom?
None but him.
His kind act would spread through the kingdom and everybody would feel safe that they had such a kind future ruler but when it came out he was actually leaving, it would be quiet the blow.
#Palace#
"Father why didn't you go see his evidence beyond the marks?" said, Princess Jasmine in her room. "Did it ever occur to you that he could be telling a little bit of truth?"
"Princess Jasmine, I can't believe that you would believe somebody who just appeared one day, over somebody who has watched you since you were born" said, Jafar.
"Screw you, Jafar" said, Jasmine getting her father to gasp. "First that beggar boy and now this boy."
"And I already told you that I killed him because he kidnapped you" said, Jafar.
"And I already told you, I ran away!" said, Jasmine. "Your men could have questioned him and giving him a trial but you threw him in a cell and executed him. And now the only prince I have ever liked, is accusing you of trying to kill him, what am I supposed to think? That you don't want to murder every guy that comes near me outside your control?"
There was a noticeable long silence after that as they all looked at him and he realised his mistake and said. "O-Of course not, princess.I have your best interest in mind. I just want to make sure your happy, that boy maybe a prince but I'm sure he's hiding one or two skeletons in his closet"
In fact that boy looked familiar to him.
"How dare you" said, Jasmine. "Get out" she threw things at the man and he 'left'.
Now it was just her and her father.
"Jasmine..." said, Sultan.
"Father, he is the only prince I have ever liked" said, Jasmine. "Who do you expect me to marry at the end of the day? Jafar?"
Silence.
"We'll..." said, Sultan.
"FATHER!" Jasmine said, she looked appalled and shocked that he would even think about that. "I don't want to be with somebody who treats me like a trophy and not a wife. How can you think of marrying me off to him of all people?"
She wasn't blind, Jafar did not see her as a person, if he did, he wouldn't have tried to sentence an innocent person to death without even a word or even a pathetic 'I'm sorry' to her.
"Jasmine, you know the rules" said, her father. "You must marry. You've turned down all my suitors who are actually wealthy, and could benefit the kingdom. Nobody wants to try with you anymore, I may have to resort to a more...extreme options"
"Father, you wouldn't have to if you had begun an investigation" said, Jasmine. "Doesn't my happiness mean anything to you?"
"Jasmine.." said, his father.
"Leave. I want to be alone" said, Jasmine.
Her father turned away and walked out, he met Jafar who certainly wasn't ease dropping.
"Jafar...maybe I should investigate" said, Sultan telling him what he didn't want to hear.
"But Sir. That boy spoke lies" said, Jafar.
" I know. But, I would like to go through it, just to prove to my daughter that I did investigate" said, Sultan, he seemed firm in trying to investigate for his daughter just to prove to her that Prince Ali was lying.
But Jafar could not allow him to do that.
Suddenly his snake staff was in front of his face as he said. "That boy is a liar"
After years of hypnosis, the Sultan was under instantly as he repeat. "The boy is a liar"
"There is no need to investigate. The boy leaving is a good thing" said, Jafar.
"There no need to investigate. The boy leaving is a good thing" said, the Sultan.
"Jafar is a far worthy husband than the boy" said, Jafar.
"But your old" said, the Sultan, making the man growl.
"Age has nothing to do with the Wisdom and leadership that this kingdom needs" He said.
"Age has nothing to do with the Wisdom and Leadership, that this kingdom needs" said Sultan.
Jafar pulled the staff from his sight and said. "Sir, I think you should go to eat. You haven't eaten a thing since you woke up"
"Y-Your right, Jafar" said, Sultan looking still dazed. "I've got to eat"
Jafar gave him a push and the man went, with each step, he looked less and less dazed.
#Jasmine room#
"Its not fair, Rajah" said, Jasmine talking to her tiger. "Something tells me, Prince Ali is telling the truth about Jafar. I didn't want to be sold off to Jafar. He's the last person I want to be married to. Just thinking of being his wife, makes me feel sick"
And Rajah could feel her pain.
And than Jasmine got an idea and said. "Wait a minute. I've snuck out before and I can do it again. I'll sneak into the place where Prince Ali is staying and pretend to be a dancer and than I'll use that to sneak into Prince Ali Kingdom. I'll be free there, as long as I don't get discovered."
And Rajah looked at her like she was crazy.
It looked suspicious, the prince leaves and suddenly Princess Jasmine disappears.
"I'll leave under the cover of night" She said, "If Prince Ali can go to another kingdom and be a complete nobody than I can too"
She had decided.
And Jasmine did not know it, but she would be the first of many who would flee the country to Ababwa when things became unbearable.
And scene!
Next chapter, Prince Ali leaves the country and very few people celebrate. When he stops to eat, he makes a startling discovery. Review/ fav and follow!
