Juliet and Akio had quickly left the sewers of Disney Town and left the world shortly thereafter. As they sailed through space Juliet was lost in thought about what Mortimer had told her when she looked up and noticed they were lost. She looked around to see a big blue world beneath them. We could land there it might be one of the worlds with the seven pure lights in it. She aimed the glider downwards towards the blue world and began to go faster.

They ended up going a little faster then what Juliet had planned and they crashed hard into the world. When Juliet opened her eyes she found that they were completely surrounded by water, but for some reason they were able to breathe. Looking around she saw schools of brightly colored fish swimming past, long tendrils of seaweed drifted about in the current, and ocean was a bright blue and sparkled in the sun light. "Where are we?" Juliet could feel something long slippery wiggling about beneath her and looked down to see that instead of legs she had a purple dolphin tail. "Akio, do you have a tail too?"

Akio was also looking at his surroundings, but was a little taken aback by the sight of a red seahorse tail. "This wouldn't happen to be one of the worlds with the seven pure lights would it?"

"I don't think so. At least it doesn't look like what I pictured they'd look like." She got the feeling they were being watch and tried to swim over to a large rock, but only succeeded in sinking. "Is there someone behind that rock? Show yourself we won't hurt you."

Peeking out from behind the rock was a mermaid with blond braided hair, bluish grey eyes, and a grey tail. She only peeked out once before ducking behind the rock again.

Juliet again tried to swim a little closer to the rock this time getting a little closer than before. "What's your name?"

She peered out from the rock and mumbled something.

"Sorry, didn't quiet catch that. Are you the one who gave us these tails?"

This seemed to perk up the mermaid a lot and she was suddenly beaming. "I'm quite good with magic. I saw you two coming towards Atlantica and I thought I'd better make sure you were prepared." She grabbed Juliet by the arm and like Hercules shook her whole arm instead of just her hand. "My name is Clementine who are you?"

Juliet had to take a minute to recover from Clementine's overly enthusiastic greeting. "I'm Juliet and this is my friend Akio."

Clementine swam around the two of them as if she was trying to get a better look. "You two aren't from around here are you? I've been all over Atlantica and I've never seen either of you before."

Juliet and Akio looked between each other for a minute wondering if they could trust Clementine. They looked her up and down from the slightly crossed eyes to the goofy smile to the way the tip of her fin was bent ever so slightly. Akio raised an eyebrow at Juliet who shrugged.

"I'm from Traverse Town and Akio is from The Grid. We're looking for the seven pure lights."

Clementine looked interested in this as she turned herself around so that she was floating upside down. "So you're from other worlds? That sounds really interesting. Can you tell me about them?"

Juliet tried to swim around Clementine only to find herself sinking again. "Maybe another time."

Clementine giggled as she watched Juliet sink further down. "Looks like you could use some lessons in swimming."

Likewise Akio was trying to follow Juliet, but was also sinking instead of swimming. "No thank you I think we can manage just fine."

The grey mermaid only continued to swim around Juliet and Akio as she continued to giggle. "What are these seven pure lights? Maybe I could help you look for them."

Juliet finally gave up and let the current bring her back up to where she was eye level with Clementine. "If you want to help us while we're here in Atlantica then you can help us." She cringed at the sound of a sharp squeal.

"Oh this is going to be so much fun." Clementine began to swim away when she stopped suddenly and swam back to them. "There's a sea witch around here that might be able to tell us where one of those seven pure lights are." She gestured at her tail. "Why don't the two of you just grab onto my tail and I can pull you along." Clementine waited until Juliet and Akio had grabbed onto her tail before she started swimming again.

Akio tightened his grip on Clementine's tail. "Who's this sea witch that you're talking about? Is she a good witch?"

Clementine quickened her stride ever so slightly causing Juliet and Akio to have to flip their own fins to keep a hold of her. "All witches have some good in them. Anyway I think Ursula I'm sure will be able to help you out with this journey you're on."

"You said her name was Ursula," Akio asked.

"Yeah you heard of her?"

"Yes, I remember hearing my user mention a sea witch named Ursula before." His face went green for a minute. "Actually, are you sure that it's safe for us to go see this Ursula?" All though Akio had never met his user he trusted him and remembered hearing that Ursula wasn't safe. "I don't think this is a good idea. Maybe we should turn back."

Instead of turning back Clementine only continued to swim faster. "I think it will be all right. Ursula told me she'll help me get to other worlds if I do something for her."

"What's that," Juliet asked.

"Something about how she couldn't be trusted, but I don't see how he'd know that unless he'd been here."

Clementine slowed down just a little bit. "I don't think you're….user did you call him? I don't think he was here. I know everyone in this world and I would know if we'd had a visitor."

"Maybe he came when you weren't around."

Juliet could sense a little tension generating between Akio and Clementine and decided to change the subject. "So Clementine you're interested in the outside worlds too?"

"It's the only thing I've dreamed about since I was a little girl." Clementine slowed down and turned around. "Ursula told me that if I can do something of her then she'll help me see the outside worlds. I just don't know what she needs me to do."

Akio would have interjected, but it was Juliet's elbow in his side that kept him quiet.

"The only thing I can think of it being is maybe something to do with King Triton." Clementine looked up at the sparkling water that was above them. "I'm willing to do anything if it means I could go somewhere else."

A few minutes later they were coming towards a tunnel of fast water. Clementine turned back to Juliet and Akio. "You two will want to hold on tight its going to get a little dicey." She waited until she felt Akio and Juliet tighten their grips on her tail before she began to swim into the fast current struggling to keep from being blown backwards.

Juliet could feel the cold hard water hitting her hard in the face and was having difficulty holding onto Clementine's tail. "How much of more of this is there?"

"Not too much further."

Shortly after this the trio was spit out into a calm darker area; down towards the sea floor was a sunken ship. Clementine gestured at the ship. "Be careful when you go near the ship there's a shark that likes to hang around down there."

In the deeper calmer water Juliet and Akio were having an easier time swimming and were able to let go of Clementine's tail. Akio was having to propel himself upwards with his short curly tail while Juliet was gliding along.

"So what's this about a shark," Juliet asked. Since being in Atlantica they hadn't seen any wraiths and could assume that they weren't aquatic. She saw something moving down near the ship and swam down a bit. "You two stay up here I'm going to go check something out."

As she swam down towards the ship Juliet could see that there was defiantly something moving down in the bottom of the ship. She saw an octopus tentacle waving at her from behind a beam and swam over to it. "Oh Erik, it's just you. For a minute there I thought it was something dangerous."

"Have you made any progress?" Erik had changed forms this time and from the waist down was an octopus.

"Actually yes I've figured out what worlds the seven pure lights are in." She saw Erik raise an eyebrow, but missed the cool glare.

"Really? Where are they then?"

"Well, when I was in Timeless River I was told that besides Radiant Garden the other six are in Wonderland, Dwarf Woodlands, Castle of Dreams, Enchanted Dominion, Agrabah, and Beast's Castle. The only problem is that I don't know where any of these worlds are." She laughed a little nervously at this.

"That's some good progress. You haven't happened to have seen Puck around have you?"

Juliet shook her head. "No, I haven't seen him in a while, but I have seen this woman in red lurking about a couple times."

Erik sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose. "They're multiplying. That woman is Antonia and she's just as bad as Puck. She's another one you'll want to watch out for. Well, you seem to be having an easier time then I thought you would so I'll leave you to explore the rest of this world." As he turned and began to swim out of the ship the scowl on his face grew bigger. I can't believe that fool gave her that much information.

As Juliet swam back out of the ship she saw a dark shadow pass over. Nervously, she glanced up to see the belly of a shark passing over the top of her. She ducked down a little further in the attempt to swim past unnoticed when her tail hit a piece of the ship.

The shark looked down right at Juliet and snarled showing rows of sharp teeth.

Juliet had to quickly swim out of the way to avoid being head butted by the shark and swam over the top of it back towards Akio and Clementine. "There's a shark coming so Clementine if you know where we could hide I suggest you tell us now."

Clementine grabbed onto Juliet and Akio and took a nose dive towards a large boulder that was blocking something off. She only let go of them just as they reached the boulder and pushed hard on it to force it to once side. "In here is where we can find Ursula." They darted in just as the shark came speeding down towards them. Once all three of them where inside the passage way Clementine pushed the rock back so that they'd be closed off from the sunken ship and the shark. She turned to Juliet. "What were you doing in the ship for so long?"

Juliet thought about saying that she'd met up with Erik again, but remembering how much Akio didn't trust him she decided to leave this out. "I thought I saw something and I just wanted to see what it was?"

"So, what was it?"

"It was nothing just a shadow on the wall."

Clementine got the feeling that Juliet wasn't telling her everything, but decided to let it go. "Come on Ursula is this way." She began to swim forward towards an oddly shaped cave that looked like a giant fish with its mouth open.

Akio was hanging behind Clementine with Juliet and didn't like the way the cave looked at all. "Are you sure this is safe? It looks really suspicious if you ask me."

"I've been to Ursula's lair before its safe. All though it is a little creepy looking I'll admit that much."

As they swam towards Ursula's lair they could hear what sounded like deep quiet moaning coming from beneath them. Juliet swam a little faster to catch up with Clementine. "Do you hear that? Wonder what it could be."

Clementine avoided eye contact with Juliet and continued to swim forward ignoring the moaning sound. "Those are…..well Ursula told me they're the ones who couldn't keep up their end of a bargain with her. Don't look at them though I think it upsets them."

As they entered the cave's mouth Akio looked down to see what looked like hundreds of small grey ghoul looking creatures looking up at them. "Clementine, what are those things?"

Clementine licked her lips a little nervously. "Those are the people who couldn't keep up their end of a deal with Ursula."

Akio continued to look down at the pathetic looking creatures that were gazing back up at them with big glassy eyes. "I still have the feeling that we shouldn't be here. This whole place is just screaming do not enter." He realized he was being left behind and had to swim faster to catch up with Juliet and Clementine. "This is the last time that I'm going to say this, but I really think we shouldn't be here."

Juliet stopped and turned around to face Akio. "Don't worry so much. Its going to be ok I'm sure Ursula can help us out if we just ask her." She heard Clementine giggle and turned around again. "What are you laughing about?"

"Oh nothing, nothing at all."

They continued to swim through the ghoul infested corridor until they came to a fork in the path. Juliet turned to Clementine. "Do you remember which way leads to Ursula?"

Clementine swam back in front of them and started to go down the left path when she was confronted by two eels; one had a glowing left eye and the other a glowing right eye. "I remember you two. You're Flotsam and Jetsam."

Flotsam, the one with the glowing left eye struck out at Clementine as he tried to bite her. "Ursula says the mermaid has had her useless used up. Ursula says get rid of the mermaid." He lashed out at Clementine again only to have his teeth blocked by Juliet's Keyblade.

Jetsam took this opportunity to attack Akio, but had his mouth jammed open by his disk.

Juliet got in front of Clementine. "I think you'd better go hide this will take a few minutes."

Clementine quickly swam into a little inlet in the cave's side wall. She peeked out to keep watching Juliet and Akio battle Flotsam and Jetsam. As she was watching them grapple with the two eels she could see octopus tentacles creeping out from further inside.

A few minutes' later Flotsam and Jetsam were sent swimming away with their tails figuratively between their legs.

By this time Akio was getting flustered with the whole situation they were in. "What did I say about all of this? What did I say?"

Juliet went back to Akio and put a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "You were right, Akio. We should have listened to you." She turned to Clementine who was still in the little cave. "Where is this Ursula? I have some things I'd like to say to her."

Clementine inched her way out of the hole with a bit of difficulty. "Just follow me I can take you to her." She began to swim out in front again. "I have some things I'd like to say to her too."

As they continued to swim into further into Ursula's lair they came across more of the little ghouls and it was becoming darker. Juliet was next to Clementine with her Keyblade out just in case when she heard a deep laughter. "Is that Ursula?"

"Yeah that sounds like her."

"So you were able to defeat Flotsam and Jetsam where you?" Coming out of the darkness was a large woman with short grey hair who from the chest down was a black octopus. "I must admit you have surprised me, mermaid." Ursula looked down at Juliet and Akio. "Who are your friends?"

Akio swam out in front of Juliet and Clementine. "You have some explaining to do, Ursula. Why did you send those eels after us? We thought you were going to help us."

Ursula flicked at the bit of hair that hung down in Akio's face. "You're mistaken. The mermaid already got me what I wanted so I don't any further need of her." With that Ursula lashed out at Clementine with one of her tentacles hitting her in the stomach.

Clementine was sent reeling backwards, but was able to recover rather quickly. She sent a bolt of lightning at Ursula hitting the sea witch dead on.

Akio had to duck when he was nearly hit in the head with a tentacle and threw his disk upwards hitting her in the head.

This time Ursula turned to Juliet and began to spin furiously with her tentacles splayed out. She hit Juliet in the head with one of her tentacles and threw her backwards.

Noticing that Juliet was in trouble Clementine cast a blizzard spell hitting Ursula in the back.

The battle continued with Juliet and Clementine using magic (Clementine's being much more powerful) and Akio using his disk as a projectile weapon. Ursula was being to breathe hard and was struggling to keep up with their attacks.

Ursula was leaning up against the little table in the room her chest heaving. "Fine, fine I give up I'll tell you what you want to know."

Juliet swam up to Ursula still keeping her Keyblade out in case the sea witch decided to retaliate. "Do you know who any of the seven pure lights are?"

"No, I don't know who any of them are."

Trying to keep the look of disappointment off her face Juliet turned and began to swim out of the cave quickly followed by Akio and Clementine. "I guess I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up."

Once they were out of the deep sea with the ship Juliet and Akio had to grab onto Clementine again to get through the fast currents and were spit out back in the clear blue water.

Clementine turned and began to swim away from them. "Well, I guess this is good-bye. It was nice to meet you two."

Juliet grabbed onto Clementine's tail to stop her. "Actually, I was thinking if you wanted to come with us you'd be more then welcome." She saw Clementine turn around; her face brightened considerably. "You were really good back there when we were fighting Ursula. We could use someone with skills like yours in magic."

"Do you mean it?" She threw herself on Juliet gripping her in a tight hug.

Juliet patted Clementine on the back. "Ok Clementine I can't breathe." She sighed in relief as Clementine released her. "Since we got that established I think its time for us to go."
