((I own none of these original Disney characters from the three movies or Saturday morning cartoon series of Aladdin. There will be no crossovers, but this will be a musical story. And some lyrics will be changed to fit the story and I will only be doing a my favorite episodes from the series and some things will stay the same others will change. Also a few head-canons will be thrown in as well as known scrapped Disney ideas for the series. I hope you enjoy this retelling ^^))
Aladdin is on his balcony as he looks up at the night sky. He sighs the walks back into his room. Down in a section of the garden Jasmine and company could be found. "What am I going to do? Aladdin won't even let me talk to him." She paces back and forth as she fidgets with her headband. "I should have known I couldn't pull off this stupid princess wish." Rajah happily eats apples with his elephant trunk to lift them to his mouth. He then tosses the apple cores into a heaping pile of the same. Genie is playing chess Carpet. "So move!" Carpet does, knocking a black piece off the board. Genie watches it fly away "Hey. That's a good move." He then shifts to look like Rodney Dangerfield. "I can't believe it-I'm losing to a rug." He tugs on his sudden necktie. Jasmine turns to look at him. "Genie, I need help." Genie, as Jack Nicholson, quickly moves over to her and places his arm around her. "All right, sparky, here's the deal. You wanna court the little ladie, you gotta be a straight shooter, do ya it?" She pulls away confused. "What?"
Genie goes back to normal, wearing a mortarboard. He points out his words on a blackboard he brought into existence. "Tell him the...TRUTH!" Jasmine waves the board away as it says 'TRUTH' in big bold fancy font. "No way!" The board poofs into smoke that fades. "If Aladdin found out I was really some crummy street rat, he'd laugh at me." She puts on her headband, which the jewel lights up due to Genie. "People appreciate someone who can make them laugh!" Jasmine pushes the jewel turning off the light with a click.
Genie comes out holding the real headband. "Jas, all joking aside, you really oughtta be yourself." She takes the headband back. "Hey, that's the last thing I want to be." She places the headband on her head. "Okay, I'm gonna go see him. I gotta be smooth, cool, confident." She takes her cape and wraps it over her shoulders while trying to mimic the words she said. Jasmine sighs then turns back to Genie as she strikes a confident pose. "How do I look?" Genie says sadly. "Like a princess." Jasmine then flies up to the balcony on Carpet. Aladdin is on his bed, sighing. Abu is by his side. "Prince Aladdin?"
Abu looks up and growls. Aladdin sits up a bit from his bed. "Who's there?" He looks over at where the voice came, outside on his balcony. Jasmine hops off Carpet and onto the balcony. "It's me J-Princess Jazii. Ahem-" Then she goes to her deep voice. "Princess Jazi Ababwa." Aladdin gets up and walks over to his curtains then pulls them back as he glares at her. "I do not want to see you." Jasmine panics. "No, no, please, please prince. Give me a chance." She tries walks over to him. Abu screeches and starts messing with her. "Just leave me alone." Says the prince. Jasmine tries to move away from Abu. "Down monkey!" Over the edge of the balcony, Carpet is watching then Genie floats up to join. "How's our little beau doing?" Carpet cuts his 'neck' with his finger. Genie facepalms.
"Good monkey, take off. Hey look a banana! Come on, down monkey." Jasmine takes off her headband and starts waving it at the monkey. Her hair getting a bit messed up. Aladdin back looks at her, now getting a better look, thinking his has seen her before. "Wait, wait." Abu backs off then runs back to Aladdin and hops on his shoulder. "Do I know you?" Jasmine quickly replaces her headband. "Uh, no. No." "You remind me of someone I met in the marketplace." He crosses his arms while looking at her. "The marketplace?" A bee buzzes around her head. "I have servants that go to the marketplace for me. Why I even have servants who go to the marketplace for my servants, so it couldn't have been me you met." She tries to shoo the bee away as she lies. He looks disappointed. "No, I guess not." He glances away. Then the bee starts talking. It's the Genie. "Enough about you, Casanova. Talk about him! His smart, fun, the hair, the eyes. Anything-pick a feature!"
Jasmine nods. "Um, Prince Aladdin? You're very…" She tries to think of something as Genie helps out. "Wonderful, glorious, magnificent, punctual!" "Punctual!" "Punctual?" He looks over confused. "Sorry." Well, tries to help anyway. "Uh, pretty handsome." "Nice recovery." Aladdin smirks as he looks over at her. "Hmm. I'm rich too, you know." Abu knows what's going on as he hops back to the floor. "Yeah!" Jasmine says, trying to sound cool. "The son of a sultan" He sways a bit as he walks over to her. "I know." She smiles. "A fine prize for any princess to marry." "Uh, right. Right. A princess like me." Genie bee buzzes in her ear. He'd caught on to what Aladdin was planning. "Warning! Warning!" He flys away as Aladdin taps her nose. "Right, a princess like you." His attitude then changed. "And every other stuffed shirt, swaggering, peacock I've met!" He pushes down her headband over her eyes then grabs her cape and tosses it over her head. Bee Genie with rear end on fire, wearing goggles and crashing. "Mayday! Mayday! Vroooooooooomm!" Jasmine moves her headband confused. "What?" "Just go jump off a balcony!" He turns and walks away. "Wha?"
Genie bee shouts. "Stop him! Stop him! Do you want me to sting him?" Jasmine swats at him. "Buzz off!" Okay, fine. But remember-bee yourself!" He makes a pun to which Jasmine gives a 'Really?' look. Bee buzzes into his lamp she has tied behind her. "Yeah, right!" She says angrily then Aladdin turns back to her. "What!?" "Uh, you're right." She quickly says which earns her a confused look from him. "You aren't just some prize to be won." She says honestly. "You should be free to make your own choice. " Aladdin and Abu look at each other in confusion. "I'll go now." She steps up on the ledge of the railing on the balcony and drops off. The prince freaks out "No!" Jasmine then pokes her head up from over the edge. "What? What?" She asks while looking around. Now Aladdin is surprised. "How-how are you doing that?" He looks over at her. She flies up and over on Carpet. "It's a magic carpet." "It's charming." Carpet takes Aladdin's hand with a tassel and shakes it.
Jasmine gets an idea. "You, uh, you don't want to go for a ride, do you? We could get out of the palace, see the world." She suggests to him as he gently puts his hand on the floating carpet. "Is it safe?" She stands up. "Sure. Do you trust me?" He looks at her as he recognized what she said. "What?" Jasmine extends her hand the same as before. "Do you trust me?" Aladdin gets a sly grin on his face. "Yes." He takes her hand and she pulls him onto Carpet. It zooms into the sky, knocking them both into sitting positions. Aladdin looks back and sees Abu looking up at him questioningly. He gasps as they fly over the palace wall and into the sky.
"I can show you the world Shining, shimmering, splendid." Jasmine beings singing to Aladdin. "Tell me prince, now when did you last Let your heart decide?" Carpet zooms down through the town, stopping slightly to pick a flower. It gives the flower to Jasmine, who gives it to Aladdin. He smiles at the gesture as he takes it from her. "I can open your eyes Take you wonder by wonder Over, sideways, and under On a magic carpet ride" Carpet does said moves as Jasmine's sings, then zooms into the clouds. "A whole new world! A new fantastic point of view No one to tell us no Or where to go Or say we're only dreaming."
Aladdin looks back and watches Agrabah disappear from sight. Carpet flies in and out of the clouds in a diving motion. "A whole new world A dazzling place I never knew But when I'm way up here It's crystal clear That now I'm in a whole new world with you!" Aladdin joins in the singing, making it a duet. "Now I'm in a whole new world with you!" They each catch a small cloud as Carpet continues the flight. Jasmine smiles then her cloud poofs, Aladdin laughs then tosses his cloud away. Then the carpet circles around a pillar of clouds, giving a swirly look to it, like a ice-cream cone. "Unbelievable sights Indescribable feeling." Aladdin moves forward a bit spreading his arms out as Jasmine smiles happily, glad he was enjoying the ride. They then join a flock of birds in the sky. One of them looks terrified and squawks. "Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling. Through an endless diamond sky" Carpet does somersaults and flips, at times putting Jasmine and Aladdin in free-fall, but catching them.
They then zoom above the clouds where a starry night awaits them. "A whole new world!" Aladdin sings as the carpet dives down. "Don't you dare close your eyes" He had covered his eyes then Jasmine moves his hands away. "An hundred thousand things to see." "Hold your breath-it gets better!" They sing back and forth. "I'm like a shooting star, I've come so far I can't go back to where I used to be!"
They zoom down over a river with ships on it, the river is the Nile, for beyond the ship's sails are the Great Pyramids. They wave at a worker sculpting the complete nose of the Sphinx. He smiles, but this is startled by the sight of them flying then chisels too much and breaks off the front section of the nose. The two feel bad for causing that then continue to fly. "A whole new world!" Aladdin picks up the song again. "Every turn a surprise." Jasmine joins in. "With new horizons to pursue." "Every moment, red-letter." They fly alongside wild horses running. Aladdin reaches out and gently pets one of the young colts. The colt jumps happily with a whenny. "I'll chase them anywhere." The two start singing together. "There's time to spare. Let me share this whole new world with you." They fly through Greece, where Jasmine grabs an apple from a tree and rolls it down her arm to Aladdin, he catches it as now sure his is dealing with Jasmine, not Princess Jazi. "A whole new world. That's where we'll be." Jasmine sings then Aladdin echos.
"A thrilling chase." Jasmine sings a line. "A wondrous place." Then a line is sung by Aladdin. Next both of them sing together. "For you and me!" Carpet hovers along over a lake, as they lean against each other then hold their hands behind themselves. Fireworks then burst and the couple is at a Chinese New Year celebration, sitting on a rooftop. Aladdin sighs happily. "It's all so magical." "Yeah." Jasmine says in a dreamy tone as she looks at him. He looks at her and decides to burst the bubble. "It's a shame your tiger cub had to miss this." He smirks. "Nah. He hates fireworks." Carpet looks up realizing what is happening as Jasmine didn't. "He's still getting used to flying too." And now Jasmine realizes it. "That is...um...oh no!" She face palms.
He pulls off her headband. "You are the girl from the market! I knew it. Why did you lie to me?" "Aladdin, I'm sorry." "Did you think I was stupid?" "No!" She tries to grab for her headband. "That I wouldn't figure it out?" He tosses it at her. "No. I mean, I hoped you wouldn't." She catches the tosses it back and forth, hears what she said then panics. "No, no, that's not what I meant." "Who are you? Tell me the truth!" He says angrily. "The truth?" Aladdin gives her an 'I'm waiting' look. She looks at Carpet who waves her to tell the truth, giving up hope on this turning out well. "The truth...the truth is...I sometimes dress as a commoner to escape the pressures of palace life." Jasmine lies then places her headband back on her quickly causing some strands get in her face. Carpet slumps down in defeat. "But I really am a princess!" More hair falls down over her eyes. "Why didn't you just tell me?" Aladdin asks. "Well, you know, um...royalty going out into the city in disguise, it sounds a little strange, don't you think?" Jasmine smirks then lightly bumps nudges him. He smiles and chuckles. "Not that strange." He lightly bumps into her.
He gently moves her messy hair out of her face and cuddles with her. Jasmine looks up at the sky as all felt right with the world. Carpet puts a tassel under his 'chin' and looks mystified. Back at palace balcony, where Jasmine and Aladdin return. Carpet forms a set of steps and he descends. Jasmine then descends just below the balcony. He turns back to her. "Good night, my beautiful princess." She smiles up at him. "Sleep well, prince." They slowly lean forward to each other, but then Carpet bumps her up and they kiss unexpectedly. They hold it for a second before he walks away slowly then turns and looks at her. Jasmine sighs happily with a small smile. Finally he enters his room through the curtain.
Jasmine then throws her arms into the air. "Yes!" She falls back onto the carpet, who descends to the ground. "For the first time in my life, things are starting to go right." She looks up at Aladdin's balcony, then four sets of hands grab her out of nowhere. "Hey! What?!" A gag is tied around her mouth. She muffles out words. "Rajah! Rajah!" He's hanging from a net tied in a tree. Jasmine tries to get up and get away. "Hold him!" A guard shouts. Shackles are placed on her feet and hands. Another guard ties Carpet in a knot around a tree. As Jasmine struggles a staff slams in front of her, she looks up to see Jaara. "I'm afraid you've worn out your welcome, Princess Abooboo." Jasmine growls as she tries to speak. "Why you. . . ." Jaara walks away. "Make sure she's never found."
A guard hits her in the head, and she falls unconscious. Suddenly on a cliff, where the guards laugh as Jasmine's body drops into the water. She is conscious now, but her feet are tied to a ball and chain. The ball hits the sea bottom, then the lamp becomes untied and floats away from her. She sees this and struggles to get to the lamp. However, she loses consciousness from air loss and falls to the floor. The lamp, unsettled by her movement, rolls down and rubs against her hands. It shakes, and Genie emerges with a bath brush, rubber duckie, and shower cap.
"Never fails. Get in the bath and there's a rub at the lamp." He squeaks the duck. "Hello?" HE sees the unconscious Jasmine and freaks out. "Jas? Jas! Kid, snap out of it!" He tries to speak to her but she can't respond. "You can't cheat on this one! I can't help you unless you make a wish. You have to say 'Genie I want you to save my life.' Got it? Okay. C'mon Jasmine!" Genie grabs Jasmine by the shoulders and shakes her. This causes her head to go up, then falls. "I'll take that as a yes." His head turns into a siren.
"Wooga! Wooga!" Then he turns into a submarine. "Up scope!" He babbles in something that sounds like German. On the surface, a giant water spout emerges, and lands on top of the cliff. Jasmine reawakes and coughs the water out of her lungs. "Don't you scare me like that!" Genie say as Jasmine looks up at him. "Genie, I-uh, I-uh…" She can't think of how to say it, so they just hug each other. "Thanks, Genie." "Oh, Jas. I'm gettin' kinda fond of you, kid." He hands the lamp back to her then picks her up; then places her on his shoulders. "Not that I want to pick out curtains or anything." He then flies back to the palace.
Back with Aladdin in his room, humming the song he sang with Jazi and smiling at the flower in his hand. Then Sultan Cassim appears in one of the double doors, a slight red tint in his eyes. "Aladdin!" He turns to his dad and smiles. "Dad, I just had the most wonderful time. I'm so happy." Aladdin gets up and walks over to Cassim. The Sultan speaks in monotone from the hypnosis. "You should be, Aladdin. I have chosen a bride for you." The prince looks at him confused. "What?" The other door opens and reveals Jaara, a smug look on her face. "You will wed Jaara." Aladdin gasps at the sight of her.
"You're speechless, I see. A fine quality in a husband." She says as she takes his hand. He yanks it away from him. "I will never marry you." He glares at her, then he goes to Cassim. "Dad, I choose Princess Jazi! "Princess Jazi left!" The royal advisor says then a new familiar voice enters the room. "Better check your crystal ball again, Jaara." Jasmine is seen at a doorway and is leaning against it. Aladdin looks over and smiles happily. "Princess Jazi!"
Jaara gasps at the sight of Jasmine. Iago shocked almost breaks his ruse. "How in the he-" He goes back to parrot-ese. "-uh, awk!" "Tell them the truth, Jaara! You tried to have me killed." Jasmine marches over to her with a rage filled glare. "What?" She fakes being shocked then goes to the Sultan. "Ridiculous nonsense, your highness. She is obviously lying." Jaara brings the staff close to the Cassim's face. "Obviously...lying." Jasmine notices the staff with its glowing eyes. "Dad! What's wrong with you?" Aladdin shakes his father's shoulders. "I know what's wrong!" Jasmine grabs the staff and smashes it on the floor. Jaara flinches and the spell is broken for good.
Sultan Cassim holds his head "Oh, my head" "Your highness, Jaara's been controlling you with this! She shows him the broken staff. Cassim takes it then drops it. "What? Jaara?" He gets angry "You traitor!" The trio advances on Jaara. "Your majesty, all of this can be explained." "Guards! Guards!" He calls for some guards. Iago just gives up. "Well, that's it-we're dead, forget about it. Just dig a grave for both of us. We're dead." But Jaara sees the lamp hanging from Jasmine's pants. She goes to make a move, but is grabbed by guards. "Arrest Jaara at once." She glares at the false princess. "This is not done yet, girl!" Jaara pulls a vial from her pocket. Jasmine sees this and rushes her, but Jaara throws the vial to the floor. A large red cloud appears. When it is gone, so is Jaara.
"Find her, search everywhere!" Cassims orders, then the teens come together. "Aladdin, are you alright?" She asks worriedly. "Yeah." They then lean in to kiss, but Cassim barges between them. "Jaara, my most trusted advisor, plotting against me all this time." They smile and shrug then hold each other again. "This is horrible. How will I ever-" He stops in mid sentence and looks at the pair. "Can it be true? My son has finally chosen a suitoress?" He nods with a smile. "Ha ha! Praise Allah!" The Sultan rushes over and hugs Jasmine. "You brilliant girl, I could kiss you!" This earns an 'ahem' from his son. "I won't-I'll leave that to my son." He says then gently pushes her back to him. "You two will be wed at once! Yes! And you'll be happy and prosperous, and then my girl, you will be sultana!"
"Sultana?" "Yes, a fine upstanding youth like yourself, a person of your unimpeachable moral character is exactly what this kingdom needs!" Jasmine looks very concerned about this.
