Chapter 15:

Under The Sea

After all of Sora's whining, and complaining about how Riku and Roxas were gone for so long, the islanders left Twilight Town. Their goodbyes weren't anything that big, just like what friends say when their only parting for a day, and will see each other in school or something. Riku and Roxasonly shared the necessary information about their trip to The World That Never Was, like the fact that Naminé's room was all messed up and that the crayon that she used for Roxas' hair was in there. They didn't say anything about the letter Xion had left for Riku, it was weird to talk about with the other two.

"So, where to now?" Sora asked, stretched across his seat in the gummi ship.

"Well, there's this really odd looking world in the route we're on right now, do you wanna check it out?" Kairi shrugged.

"Sure." Sora said.

"Why not?" Roxas shrugged.

"Go ahead." Riku answered.

"Ok. Get buckled, we're gonna land in a couple minutes." Kairi ordered.

Roxas returned to Sora's body, and Sora sat up straight, buckling his seat belt at the same time. Riku was already buckled, so he just sat there, looking to the stars, and clutching the letter in his pocket.


The ship landed on a beach with a beautiful view of the ocean and a nearby castle. Sora jumped right out and looked around.

"Hey1 I know where we are!" He exclaimed, running to the ocean.

"Where are we?" Kairi asked.

"Well, in the ocean is Atlantica, I honestly don't know the name of this city." Sora smiled.

"Sora? Is that really you?" A woman's voice asked from behind him.

Sora turned around to see a woman with long red hair, half of which was tied up with a blue bow.

Sora blinked in surprise, "Ariel?" He asked.

"Yeah, who're your friends?" Ariel smiled.

"This is Riku, and this is Kairi. I can't believe you're actually human now!" Sora grinned.

"Not permenantly, I'm only able to visit Eric, and he visits me in Atlantica." She smiled.

"Hi Ariel, it's nice to meet you." Kairi waved.

"Nice to meet you too, Kairi." She waved back.

"So, do you think your dad could change us? I really wanna see Sebastian and Flounder again." Sora practically begged.

"Sure, he should be here to get me in a little while." Ariel said politely.

They all sat on the beach, talking about all of their adventures, Kairi was quiet though.

"What's up Kairi?" Riku whispered.

"Well, Sora just seems to really like this Ariel girl, do you think they had something together at one time?" Kairi blushed as she spoke.

"Nah, Sora's just really close to everyone he talks to." Riku shrugged.

"Ariel, who're these people with you?" A strong sounding voice asked.

"Daddy! You remember Sora right? These are his friends, Riku and Kairi." Ariel waved at a man in the water.

"So, you finally found them huh?" The man smiled.

"Riku, Kairi, this is King Triton, he's Ariel's father, and he's a merman." Sora smiled.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, your majesty." Kairi bowed.

"Yeah." Riku bowed as well.

"Ariel, are you wanting Sora and his friends to come back with you?" The king asked.

"Yes please." She grinned.

Everyone held hands, and stood together. Triton swung his trident, and everyone flew into the air, before falling to the ocean. Sora had his usual blue tail with a fin. Kairi's tail was pink and she had silver seashells. Riku's tail was black and, like Sora, had a fin on the back.

"Woah! we're fish!" Kairi yelled happily.

They all practiced their swimming, before following the king and his daughter to the magnificent city of, Atlantica. When they got there, the four children took a different path from the king, they were going to Ariel's grotto. Ariel pulled the huge rock away from the entrance and they all swam inside.

"Just like I remember it." Sora commented.

"I've gotten a few new things since you were last here, but they're all pretty little." Ariel shrugged.

"Heh. You're always getting new stuff for your collection." Sora grinned.


Ariel spent about half an hour showing off all of the new things in her collection. After which, they all went to see Sebastian and Flounder. They sang a few songs, Sora hitting a few sour notes, danced a few dances, and played some games. It was a really nice break from everything that was going on at the time. Eventually, they returned to the surface, and headed off to a new world.

"Bye Ariel!" Sora called as the Gummi Ship took off.

Ariel waved from where she stood on the beach, as she watched the ship shoot off into space.
