Chapter Twelve

Wanna chased after Ariel. 'Wow, she's fast, even in her Meridian princess dress,' Wanna thought, as she panted through the city, it's cobble streets and old medieval style housing. Soon enough that was all behind her and was dashing past some tall, thin trees.

"Ariel!" Wanna cried, as she picked up the pace.

"Go away!" She cried, from a distance.

As Wanna ran she noticed Ariel in the distance, leaning against a thick trunk.

"No! Ariel what's wrong? And don't say 'nothing' because if it's nothing why are you running away?" Wanna warned.

"It's no-" Ariel started. "Nothing? What did I just say?" Wanna asked, crouching down to be at equal height with Ariel.

"You heard the way they spoke to me…" Ariel said sadly, not making eye contact.

"Yeah…" Wanna said, slowly.

"I've let them down so badly…" Ariel said. "They depended on me... and I let them down," she got teary.

"Ariel…" Wanna started.

"You don't know how I feel,"

"I don't, it's true, but come on be realistic, those people are suffering right, and that's bad but being locked in that cell… that was suffering for you so really they're not in a position to judge you and what you've been through," Wanna said.

"Still… It's not right," Ariel muttered. "Why is it so… when did it get this bad…" Ariel said, thinking out loud.

"I should have helped them, I shouldn't have just given up, when I gave up on myself, I gave up on them," Ariel said, staring off into the distance.

"I guess that just proves that you should never give up," Wanna grinned.

"What? How… what? Why are you so happy," Ariel giggled.

"You haven't met my mother," Wanna smiled, cheekily. Wanna felt a pain in her heart when she thought of her sweet, cheerful mother.

"Oh… okay," Ariel said, not getting it.

"My mother is a pretty happy person. I mean, she can see the bright side of anything," Wanna said.

"How would she do that," Ariel asked.

"I have no idea, I've known her my whole life and she's always been that way… even though she's had many sad things happen to her," Wanna said.

"Like what?"

"Well… when her boyfriend… my dad… left her because she wasn't 'proper' or something like that," Wanna said. "I never really tell anyone about that though," Wanna said. It saddened her too. Sometimes, at night when she couldn't sleep at night she'd think about him. Did he leave because of her mother… or did he leave because of Wanna?

"Oh… that's… really mean," Ariel said. Wanna nodded. "So how does she become happy because of that?" Ariel asked confusion in her eyes.

"Well, my mum says without him she doesn't have to be scared to be herself with him, she said she always put up a mask, she was merely an actress playing a role opposite to herself," Wanna said, thinking at the same time.

"Oh, she must be a very good actress then," Ariel said. Wanna giggled.

"My mum always said that 'life is a play and we, all the people are just actors,'" Wanna quoted.

"I like that, we're all actors," Ariel thought, looking up at the leaves. Wanna missed sitting in Fig Bay Park, under the tree watching the sunlight shine down in between the leaves. I miss my world, I wonder about those portal things, it's hard enough to find them back home… how will we find them here?

"Thank you Wanna," Ariel breathed.

"What? Thank you? What for I haven't done anything!" Wanna argued.

"No I think I understand, thanks for helping me to break free and understand why I have to fight Ariana," Ariel said.

"Uh? Ar…iana? Who?" Wanna asked.

"My sister," Ariel said. Wanna nodded, still confused.

"The Queen," Ariel said.

Wanna just stared at Ariel. This Queen that was trying to steal the Heart was Ariel's sister? 'Something tells me that this goes beyond sibling rivalry….' Wanna thought.

"Hey, let's go back and help the others," Ariel said, dashing off.

"O-okay," Wanna squeaked.

"How much weirder does this role get?" She shook her head and dashed off.

Lol, okay that's the second last chappie! Then onto story four! Yep, I've been a very good girl!
