Faker McFakerson!
Disclaimer: sorry, I have to put this. I don't own any Aladdin characters, just myself.
With female underwear incrimination on Ali's reputation, he was on thin ice at the moment, but swore nothing was going on and that he would prove it. The Sultan allowed this, but only as a last chance. The fake prince was set on finding out just who was doing all of this to him and why. While on his own investigation, Kristina was sent to go and convince the Sultan to completely cut Ali loose.
"How the crap am I suppose to do this anyway?" The teen said to herself as she walked around the garden, wasting time so she could think. She had done so many dastardly deeds in that one single day, she just felt pooped and wanted to sleep. But if she did so, she'd have Jafar's wrath to answer to, which she wasn't willing to deal with at the moment. While walking, she managed to lead herself back to Ali's mini palace yet again, and heard someone talking to themselves.
The voice was Genie's.
"I can't believe he doesn't want to wish me free! After all that I've done for him, he wants to take back his promise and just use the last wish for himself!" The Genie raged, sitting there on the bed with a pouty look on his face.
Kristina listened and felt bad for the magical entity. She walked in quietly without him realizing it.
"I guess I should have expected this. It's not like this is the first time this has happened." Genie said, his figure now slumping at this statement.
"I wouldn't do that to you." Kristina said.
This sudden quote made him jump in surprise. He looked at her and slightly blushed.
"I-I didn't know anyone was listening." The spirit said, rubbing the back of his neck.
"I'm sorry if I'm intruding, if you want me to leave, I will." She said quickly.
"No, it's alright." He answered, sort of glad for the newfound company.
Kristina walked over to the bed and sat next to him, patting Genie on the back to console him.
"Like I said, I wouldn't do that to you. To anyone for that manner. If there's one thing I know how to do, it's how to keep a promise." She said proudly.
The genie smiled at the girl, her sweet innocence resonating.
"Thanks." He said.
"Anytime dude. By the way, I'm Kristina." She said, holding her hand out to him.
"Everyone calls me Genie." He said, returning her handshake. "So you're the consultant I've heard so much about."
"You've heard of me?" She asked.
"Al talks about you as if you were a plague." Genie said with a chuckle.
"Yeah, I guess I have caused him a lot of trouble." Kristina said with a bashful grin.
"A lot? I've only heard of the instigating when we first got here." He said, curious about what else she's done.
"Oh, well, eh heh, there's more, but I can't really say….unless you promise not to tell anyone." The teen said to him with hopeful eyes.
"Cross my heart." He said.
With this promise made, Kristina told Genie about her escapades about the palace. She was even comfortable to let out that she was helping Jafar. Even though he didn't approve of the Jafar part, he was laughing his head off at the child's devious ideas. He laughed even more when she got to parts about annoying Jafar with her indecent questions and the flamingo incident. When she finished, the spirit was left wiping tears from so much laughing.
"Well! You sure do get down to business!" Genie said, catching his breath.
"Yeah, well, I make sure to get a job done when it's given." Kristina said with pride.
"Even so, I should still tell you that I don't like the thought of you helping out that psycho. He's no good, and that's the truth." He said, slightly serious now.
"I know, I know, but the chance to be mischievous was too good to pass up! I never got to do anything like this back at home!" She said, now sad at the thought of home.
Genie noticed this and felt sorry for the teen. He patted her on the back.
"Hey, it'll be alright. I'm sure you'll get back home somehow." Genie said.
Kristina nodded, then got an idea.
"HEY!" She shouted, jumping up from the bed. "How about I take you on as my genie? You can help me out with anything else that I need to do here, and once I'm finished, I'll wish you free! And even though you wouldn't grant wishes afterwards, you could still send me back home! Everyone wins!"
Genie thought this over, but found a problem. "You'd still be helping Jafar, which I just can't do."
"Oh don't worry Genie, I'll make sure you don't have to do anything that would harm anyone." She said, holding his hands to reassure him. "I promise that nothing will get out of hand if Jafar somehow manages to take over. You just have to trust me on that."
He stared at her for a moment, her eyes showing that she meant every word. The spirit trusted her, knowing that she knew what would happen if Jafar became Sultan and how to stop it if it came to that.
"Alright. What the heck? It can't turn out absolutely horrible can it?" He said with a sigh.
With a squee, the teen hugged him and said so many thank you's that he had to zip her mouth shut just to get her to calm down.
"I just don't understand. Prince Ali seemed so promising, but now it seems to be all just a lie." The Sultan said, so worried for his daughters suitorless problem.
"I'm sure all will be figured out soon enough sire." Jafar answered. The vizier was slightly annoyed that Kristina hadn't gone to do her duty right when he asked her to. All he could do now was wait for her late arrival. He was relieved to see her finally waltz in, but annoyed at how at ease she seemed.
"I'm so very sorry I hadn't come to you any sooner sire." Kristina started, bowing gracefully. "I've had some slight trouble finding my way around here, but my top priority was finding out just how good this Prince Ali was for your daughter. I'm sure you've heard all of the horrible details by now?"
"Yes, and it's most troubling. Is there any positive news my dear?" The Sultan said hopefully.
"Alas, I'm sorry to say that no my sire, there is not. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it is my job to state the facts." She answered very officially. She then heard a small voice in her head calling her a liar and a mean person. Stupid conscience! You're worse than Dane Cook's floor boards! She thought, referring to the comedians joke about cheating.
"Oh, that's sad to hear." He said, slumping in his throne.
"Perhaps I can say something of usefulness sire?" Jafar said.
"Yes Jafar?"
"Well, there is a law that I found recently." The vizier began, pulling a scroll from his robes. "It states that if the princess is not married by her eighteenth birthday that she must marry the royal vizier!" He said with fake surprise.
"Really? I don't remember anything like that." The Sultan said, trying to look at the scroll, but Jafar put it away.
"I'm sorry sir, but I must inform you of these things. You've surly heard of this law, Miss Estrada?" He said, motioning to Kristina.
"Huh? OH, yes! Yes sire, it is indeed a law. One that even holds precedence in my country!" She answered. LIAR! LIAR LIAR LIAR LIIIIIIIAAAAARRRRRR!!!!
SHUT UP BRAIN! Stupid rude conscience trying to force me to do the right thing! Silence!
LIAR! DECIEVER! YOU RUDENESS MEANY MEAN PERSON!
SHUT UP!
FAKER McFAKERSON!
"SHUT THE FREAKING CRAP UP!" Kristina shouted out loud by accident.
This sudden outburst made the Sultan, Jafar, and Iago all jump. They stared at her as she looked very embarrassed.
"Uh, excuse me sire, I, uh, need to go get some fresh air!" the teen said, sprinting out of the room and to the garden.
"Girly went crazy. Braaaah!" Iago said in parrot fashion.
"I can't believe this! I think I've finally gone completely insane!" Kristina said to herself in distress. She managed to get back to her room without seeing anyone else and simply plopped on her bed to try and relax.
"What happened?" The Genie said, popping out of his lamp. With becoming Kristina's genie, he was able to be moved to her room, which was actually way more spacious.
"Oh nothing. Besides the fact that I'VE FINALLY FLIPPED MY TOP!" the teen said hysterically, flailing he arms for emphasis.
"Hey, it can't be that bad can it?" Genie said.
"You try having your conscience nagging at you, calling you a liar and deceiver, AND ignoring it at the same time!" She said.
"Well how about this. Has your conscience ever annoyed you this badly before?" He asked.
"Well….no, but that's because I've never done anything like this! I've never had to tell such big lies or anything like that! UGH, I'm just so confused! I promised to help Jafar, but at the same time, he's the baddie! I'm doing a horrible thing that I thought I wouldn't feel so bad about, BUT I DO!" Kristina explained. "What do you think Genie? Should I just try to finish this whole story up? Or should I just stop?"
Genie thought about this for a second. "Hmm, what would happen if you stopped helping Jafar right at this moment?"
"I don't know. He might get enraged, lose his trust of me, steal you, and then make everything so bad that I wouldn't be able to stop it. But if I DO keep help him, I think I might be able to anticipate things to come, so I think that might be a safer option." The teen said.
They both sat there and agreed that it was better to keep helping Jafar, even though it was bad.
"I'm sorry to drag you into such horrible schemes Genie." Kristina said, slightly ashamed.
"No big deal. I've been in way worse scenarios than this!" Genie said.
"Really? Care to share your own adventures?" She said, very interested.
"You actually want to hear about me?" He asked, surprised.
"Sure! I bet you've been through a lot of crazy adventures!"
"Well, alright. Here goes!" He began, and for hours he spun his tales of Arabian adventures.
"I'm telling ya Jafar, we can't trust the kid anymore! She's finally gone coo coo!" Iago ranted.
"I suppose you're right, but I think we can still use her for just a bit longer Iago." He replied. He wasn't completely satisfied, with Ali still being in the residence, but with Kristina's help, their plan was near done.
"Are you sure about this?" Genie asked Kristina as they began nearing Jafar's secret lair.
"I'm sure. I've already used one of my wishes, so we'll be just fine if Jafar tries anything funny. Okay?" the teen reassured him.
Genie nodded and went back into his lamp as she walked into the hidden room.
"Jafar? I have a gift for you!" Kristina said in her happiest way.
"What is it?" He replied from below.
"I think you should see it for yourself!" She said, reaching the bottom.
Jafar looked at her and was surprised to see the lamp in her possession.
"The lamp! H-how did you-"
"I have my ways." The teen said proudly.
The vizier snatched from her and began to laugh an evil and hysterical laugh, one that nearly made Kristina fall over laughing, but she kept her mouth shut so she wouldn't do so.
"IT'S MINE! IT'S FINALLY MINE!" Jafar said insanely. He began rubbing the lamp, which led Genie to come out. This time he came out way more dramatically than usual, using fireworks, music, dancers, the works times ten.
He's so totally hamming this up. Kristina thought to herself with a smirk at seeing the spectacle.
"HEY THERE! How's it goin?! You're Jafar right? I've heard SO MUCH about you!" Genie said, shaking the viziers hands with excitement.
Kristina made a coughing noise to let Genie know he was hamming it up a little too much.
"Eh-hem. So Jafar, my new master," at this he bowed, "what can I, The Genie of the Lamp, do for you?"
"Genie, for my first wish, I wish to be SULTAN!" Jafar yelled.
"YOU GOT IT!" Genie said, zapping Jafar.
Jafar's clothing became white as he was given his new rank. He again let out an evil cackle that would make even the most serious of British guards fall over laughing.
"I really hope you know what you're doing." Genie said to Kristina while the new Sultan was busy.
I do to. She thought to herself.
TO BE CONTINUED!
