Here we go with the fourth chapter, and I want to thank everyone for the support. My friend appreciates the support for his old story and is glad it's getting better than the last two times he tried this. It's a slow progress, but I told him more people will like it. In time.
Also, again, for those who don't know the story for the film takes place four years after the Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea movie and before the fourth Pirates movie. So, trying to keep it to around the time my friend wanted it set in. Also, the time period this is set in, yeah, it doesn't fit. But it's fanfiction, so people can make the timeline however they want.
Now, last time we saw the appearance of Edward Teague, the Keeper of the Code of the Pirates and Jack Sparrow's father. Arriving in time to help his granddaughter out and saving her skin. We also saw the arrival of Melody's mermaid friend and see the two-spending time together. How will things go today?
What will Gabriella and her grandfather discuss? Is it something relating her dad? Will we see her eventually interact with Melody? Or wait till the party?
Tune in today to find out everyone. Now, time for the disclaimer. I don't own anything owned by Disney except the OCs of my friend. Also, again I'm doing this for my friend who can no longer work on my projects.
Enjoy the chapter everyone.
Chapter IV
Tirulia
Gabriella made her way to the corner of the tavern with her grandfather, Edward Teague. Keeper of the Code and Pirate Lord of Madagascar, who she hasn't seen in some time. Not that she wasn't happy to see him. And she knew he was happy to see her, even if he didn't show it like how normal grandfathers would.
The body of the man her grandfather shot was soon taken out back and placed in the back of a wagon. Covered in a sheath to avoid getting seen by the local authorities or just the locals in general.
Turns out the tavern is a secret place for pirates to go. Small taverns like these are set up across different towns and cities that are by the sea. All kept in secret, so pirates can come and go without being found out by the local authorities. Allowing them to resupply, recruit new crewmates to join them, or just simply looking for a good time.
Something that Gabriella noticed a lot of the people in this tavern seem to be doing. Drinking, eating, singing, and trying to hit on the women in the facility.
"The king and queen in these parts don't have strict laws against pirates. Mainly because there's hardly been any pirate attacks in the area," Edward explained to his granddaughter as he took a swing of his drink.
"I'm a little surprise," said Gabriella as she took a sip from her cup filled with water. "I noticed while sailing here that this place hardly has a military presence. Much less anyone to help enforcement their laws."
Edward as he sets his drink down, while he has an annoyed look. "Did you forget everything I taught you?" he gets a small shrug from Gabriella, causing him to sigh softly. "You really are like your father."
"So, I've been told by my mother. Now, go on. What did I forget this time?" Gabriella asked wondering where he's going with this.
Edward moves his drink aside and leans down before he explains.
"Long ago, the Brethren Court had decided to enact a new rule. That rule is that any kingdom that shows little authority and no military presence that would endanger any pirate, will be left unspoiled. Meaning, towns like these, where they have a noble or in this case a royal family that have no concerns for pirates, will not be attacked by any pirates. Allowing pirates to come and go in these areas without being attacked and prevent more powerful governments from inserting their rule over these areas."
This way, it can allow the pirates to go to these towns without being harassed by the locals. It also means there won't be a lot of wanted posters that will cause them any trouble. While also allowing safe havens like this tavern to be set up. Without worrying about their enemies trying to spy on them or raid the place, like how the British tried to do years ago during the Davey Jones situation.
Gabriella remembers this all too well. It was the only time she was thankful to be with her mother and grandfather. While dozens of pirates were being hunted down and killed, Gabriella survived. Survived by staying with one of the most powerful and dangerous pirates of the sea.
One that knew how to survive being hunted down. One who has fought against the British before. One who had struck fear down their spines. And one who survived death against them.
"That makes a lot of sense. I guess," said Gabriella who now understands why these areas are a haven for pirates. "So, have you heard anything about my father?"
Straight to the point. Edward knew his granddaughter wouldn't take long to ask him about that. "I've heard a few rumors here and there. Nothing solid, but I do know is your father is looking for the Fountain of Youth."
Gabriella had heard about the fountain and so has hundreds of other pirates. So many of them trying to find the Fountain of Youth, with the goal of becoming immortal. The chance to avoid death. And an opportunity to continue sailing the open seas for all eternity.
"Along with other pirates, who've all tried and failed. So, what luck does dad have in finding it?" Gabriella asked wondering what tricks her dad has in finding something, no other pirate has been able to find.
"He has the Mao Kun Map," said Edward revealing what her father possesses. "It's known as the navigational charts or also known as the Map of the Land of the Dead."
Edward explains the map was given to the great navigator Wu Ling, who was known for going on various journeys to the mysterious gates of the afterlife. The map is said to lead its holder to spiritual realms and legends of the land beyond death, like the Fountain of Youth. It used meridian arcs, equatorial divisions, geographic landmarks, and magic keys to guide one's spiritual passage.
"Sao Feng once had it in his possessions, before giving it to Jack's allies. From what I heard, Jack stole it from Captain Barbossa, who was in search of the Fountain of Youth himself," Edward knew any pirate would want to get their hands on such a useful and powerful map to guide them to what they want.
"That's…pretty surprising. I mean, honestly? I've traveled around the seas with my mom and on my own, but never heard of such a map like this," honestly? It would come in handy for Gabriella if she got her hands on it. "Still, with this map, I guess it we can assume my father is immortal."
"Don't be so sure, Gabby," Edward replied before he explains what he knows. "The location of the fountain is hidden in a place that will make it hard for Jackie to find. With the only way to find it requiring the tears of a mermaid."
"Tears of a mermaid?" Gabriella looking surprised to hear this. "Why would tears from a mermaid help?"
Edward sighed softly as he leans back against his seat. "You really are Jackie's kid," he leans in again and explains the story. "The Fountain of Youth's location was tasked by the mermaids of Whitecap Bay, by Poseidon himself. To keep foolish mortals from discovering the fountain."
Gabriella had heard of Whitecap Bay, which is considered a dangerous place for any sailor to go to. It is home to the mermaids who have been known to gather for hundreds of years. Where they can be seen luring in sailors to them before they attack them. Dragging their victims to the sea to be devoured.
They're considered so dangerous to the point that a group of mermaids can even take down a whole ship.
She knows there's a remote lighthouse, which was set up by the English. Until they disappeared and was soon abandoned. Now? The lighthouse is simply used as a way to attract the mermaids to appear.
"So, um how tears of a mermaid be used to help find the Fountain of Youth?" Gabriella asked.
"From what I read? The mermaids used their tears to help keep the entrance hidden away, so it stands to reason using their own tears to open the doorway will help," said Edward who gathers from what he read how to find the fountain and get in. "If you're father is going after the fountain, he'll need the tears of a mermaid to do it."
"A task that will require him to get a crew, which means, he'll make port somewhere soon to do that," Gabriella also knows he'll need a ship, especially since his old one had been taken.
"Ay and it will have to be one that's fast too," Edward knows a fast ship is needed nowadays, especially with how their enemies are trying to make their ships faster too. "By the way, any word about the Black Pearl?"
Gabriella seemed rather quiet about the mention of the famous pirate ship. One that was her father's, before it was taken by Hector Barbossa. A ship that is considered one of the fastest ships in the sea and how any pirate would sell out their own mother to have it. A ship that survived and won countless battles.
"Last I heard Captain Barbossa, the Black Pearl had disappeared while off the coast of Hispaniola. Neither Barbossa or his crew were ever seen again," Gabriella replied, but did seem to grip the strap of her bag in her left hand.
Edward took notice of this but didn't think too much about it. Edward had heard rumors of another pirate attacking them, but if this was true, then whoever did this would have bragged to all what they did.
"Still, it's a pity," said Gabriella as she leans back against her seat. "And here I thought I'd be the one to take that ship from Barbossa after what he did to dad."
"You sure you didn't want to have the ship for yourself?" Edward asked as he begins chuckling softly before taking a sip from his drink.
Gabriella couldn't deny, yeah, she would have taken it for herself. Sailing as captain of one of the greatest pirate ships in the world would be one of her greatest accomplishments.
"Of course. Who wouldn't want a ship like the Pearl?" Gabriella isn't a fool. To have a ship like that to sail with, it would be a dream come true.
Edward finishes his drink and sets the cup down before he gets to his next question. "So, what's your plan now? You want to come with me and sail under my command?"
"Ha! And drag your drunk rear back to your ship every night? No thank you," Gabriella didn't want to do that again, especially how tired she'd be when she finally got him in bed. "I'm planning to stick around until I find another ship to…commandeer. I'll need to avoid going anywhere near England for a while, since I sort of made them angry."
"I figured as much," said Edward who didn't sound disappointed that his granddaughter didn't wish to join him but was proud of her pissing off their enemies. "I'd say wait a month or two until you can go back there. I'll be heading over in a few months after I return home. I need to pay some old friends a visit while I'm there."
"A few months huh?" Gabriella knew the time it takes to get from where they are to where her grandfather lives should give her plenty of time to find a ship to commandeer. "All righty then. I'll see you in London. Before you go though, I don't suppose you know where I can go to commandeer a ship, right?"
Edward looks around to make sure no one hears what he's about to say, before he leans in and whispers. "The king and queen are throwing a party for their daughter in two days. There'll be ships from nobles and family members coming by for the visit. Plenty of ships to choose from, but I recommend going for one that's fast, not big."
"The smaller the ship, the faster it will be, I know," Gabriella also knows the smaller the ship, the less hard work it will be for her to sail it. "Thank you, grandpa. I appreciate this and if you do hear anything about father…"
"I'll let you know," said Edward before he hands a bag full of coins to his granddaughter. "Here. Use this to buy some supplies and some change of clothes. Can't have you running around with little to nothing."
Gabriella gladly took the money and puts it away before she hugs her grandfather. Something she knows he's not used to, but she knows he's slowly winning him over with it.
She soon breaks the hug and sighed softly. "Well, best be off then. I'll see you next time then, grandpa."
"See you next time, kid. And try to avoid getting into trouble," said Edward before looking over to where Gabriella has her hat and tips his hat. "I know I can count on you to keep her safe, my little friend."
A small bell could be heard, responding to Edward's comment. Before long, the elder pirate walked out of the tavern and heads on out. Gabriella goes to her hat and puts it on before she begins heading out through the back. Looking to go in a different direction than her grandfather.
"All right. Let's scout around this town and then scout out the palace," said Gabriella to her unseen friend as they head into town to do a little exploring.
Meanwhile
Ariel is seen with her husband as they go around the ball room going over the preparations for the party. With two days left, they knew they must get things ready. With their families coming in, along with friends, and the noble families coming in, they're making sure everything will be ready for the festivities. While also making sure nothing will go wrong.
After the incident four years ago, they've managed to avoid any problems. But they still have to make sure everything will go well.
"Chef Louis has finished acquiring the supplies to make the food and has shown us how the cake will look," Eric shows his wife the final design of the cake, which was thankfully toned down after the last two designs the chef had made. "He'll make preparations to make the cake first thing tomorrow morning. While hiring a few of the local chefs to help him with the rest of the preparations."
"That's good," Ariel knew that the chef is a good man, despite trying to kill Sebastian multiple times in the past, but she knew he tries doing all the work himself. "I don't want him working too hard this time by burdening the whole work on his own. I want him to relax during the festivities and not worry about anything else."
Eric agrees with his wife as they go over the menu, before remembering what they added and how Ariel isn't happy about it. "Listen, I know you're still not happy about the chef putting in seafood again, but it's what the nobles were hoping to have again."
Eric knew a lot of the nobles enjoy eating seafood whenever they came down to Tirulia. After getting married to Eric, the two had agreed to no longer serve seafood in the palace. Mainly because Ariel didn't want to see someone, she knew from the sea on her dinner plate or the plate of one of the guests. However, she knew they had to make the guests happy, even if she wasn't.
"I'll be fine with this, as long as I'm not near the guests eating it," said Ariel as they walk over to the center of the ballroom and looks up to see the new chandelier that had been delivered.
Ariel knew this was a gift from Eric's parents, who thought it would look nice in the ballroom. She couldn't deny it did look nice. "Remind me to thank your parents for sending us this. It's just so beautiful."
"It really is. But not as beautiful as you," said Eric as he turns to his wife, who smiled at him.
"Oh Eric. You're so sweet," said Ariel as she leans in to kiss her husband, as he returned the kiss.
After a minute passed, Ariel broke the kiss, but soon her expression changed to one of concern. Eric took notice of this and knew something is on her mind.
"Is everything okay?" Eric asked wondering what troubles his wife.
"It's nothing," Ariel lied not wanting to tell her husband what's really going on.
"Come on," Eric persisted as he moves his right hand to caress her face. "I know there's something bothering you. Is it about the party? The nobles? Or Melody?"
Ariel knew her husband knew her so well. If something is wrong, he'll notice. And he won't stop until he tries to make her feel better. Something she appreciates but does try her best not to concern him about.
In this case though? No, she knew she couldn't lie to hm about it. "All three, I guess."
She explains how she's worried about Melody since she knows the nobles have been trying to set up one of their boys to win Melody over. To try courting her, which herself and Eric have managed to prevent, since Melody wants to find love on her own. Without trying to be courted by every boy the nobles sent, especially during her birthday parties.
"I'm worried about how tomorrow will go, especially since the nobles keep reminding us how it's that time when Melody should be finding a suitor to be with," said Ariel who knew that her daughter shouldn't be pressured into finding love and should take her time. "At this rate? Melody will rather skip her birthdays if she knows how it's going to go."
Eric knew his wife wasn't wrong. When he was Melody's age, he was told by his parents and their advisors how he needed to settle down. Find a princess to marry and have children with. He's glad how things turned out with him and Ariel, even if he did wish the circumstances didn't include an evil sea witch.
But even then, he wouldn't have changed anything else.
Eric grasps his wife's hand gently and pulls her close. "I know. We both want our daughter to find her special someone to be with. Someone who she can be happy with. Someone who will be there for her, make her laugh, give her love, and will protect her from any harm."
Even Ariel's grandfather seems to agree with what they want for Melody. Triton believes that Melody should wait till he finds the one she loves to be with. Although Ariel knew her daddy is hoping out that Melody will pick someone from the sea. Preferably a merboy, but Ariel knew that was unlikely to happen.
"Well, here's hoping that tomorrow night will go well and with no incidents," said Ariel who's hoping that tomorrow's party will go off without a hitch.
Ariel looks up at her husband and gives a small smile. "Eric, do you really think Melody will find that special someone? I mean, I have no doubt she will, but what if that special someone is out there, waiting for her to find them?"
Eric gave a small chuckle knowing that was possible, but he knows Melody can't simply just leave to go exploring till she finds her true love. But he did have something in mind that might help with that.
"If they are out there, then maybe we'll find them on our trip," Eric noticed his wife's expression changed to a confused one, so he decided to tell her his surprise. "I was hoping to save this for later, but I decided that after the party, we'll go on a little trip. We'll travel to England and then France. Just you, me, Melody, and if you want, your family too."
Eric knew his parents will be too busy with their duties, so they won't be able to go. But it didn't mean he couldn't take Ariel's family. He knew Ariel's sisters have always wanted to go exploring the world of man. Yes, they have visited land before, but mostly around the town and palace.
Ariel's expression soon turned to one of excitement as she wraps her arms around her husband and hugs him. Showing she's clearly happy with the news.
"Oh Eric, that sounds like a wonderful and amazing idea," said Ariel who knew this was going to be a lot of fun. "I've always wanted to visit England and France. I know Melody will love this too. I know my daddy will likely say no, but if my sisters, myself, and Melody all ask him to go, we'll change his mind. No way he can say no to all of us."
"You got that right," Eric and Ariel turn to the source of the voice, before Ariel gasped when she saw who it is.
"Attina!" Ariel replied before she rushes over to see her older sister has arrived.
Attina is the oldest of the seven siblings, while having long brown hair, which she keeps in a bundle. She has blue colored eyes like her sisters, fair skin, and in her mermaid form a salmon-colored tail. But in her human form, thanks to her daddy's magic trident, she appears to be wearing a salmon-colored dress with light pinkish colors on it.
"I can't believe it," said Ariel who's so happy that her sister is here. "You're here and so early. Is daddy and our sisters here too?"
Attina shook her head in response. "Sorry, just me. Daddy is finishing leaving instructions for Urchin to follow before they come over to the party. And our sisters are finishing wrapping their gifts for Melody. Speaking of which…"
Attina pulls out a small gift from her bag, before handing it to Ariel. "A late birthday gift from Urchin. I hope this is okay."
Urchin was once a troublemaking merboy, who Ariel had befriended years ago. He ended up becoming a good friend and began working with Triton. Wanting to one day become an advisor for Attina, when she becomes queen one day. Something she was looking forward to and couldn't wait to have Urchin help her, especially with how amazing he's been at helping out her daddy.
Ariel gave a small smile before she nods. "It's okay. I know he was busy and just hope he's doing okay. I know after I got married to Eric it wasn't easy for him to lose his best friend. Although, I'm thankful you all were there for him."
Attina nods knowing that herself and her sisters did their best to spend time with Urchin to help him feel better.
Eric walks over before Attina gave him a hug and they greet one another. "Good to see you again, Attina. I assume you came to spend time with Melody before your sisters do?"
Attina nods in response knowing that when the rest of the sisters arrive, they'll spoil the hell out of Melody. "I wanted to try spending time with her as much as possible, while making sure she isn't spoiled too much by the rest of her aunts."
"Well, she's currently taking her class right now," said Ariel knowing it will be some time before she finishes. "However, I was wondering if you'd like to spend some time until then?"
"I would love that," said Attina who couldn't wait to spend time with her little sister.
"I'll leave you two to do that then," said Eric who decided to let the siblings spend time together. "I'll go see if Grimsby finished getting the banner ready," he gives his wife one last kiss, before he took his leave.
Once he was gone, Attina gave a small sigh. "You two are so perfect together."
Ariel knew her sister isn't wrong. A few years after she got married, her sisters all got married too. All hooked up with very nice merboys and all have kids of their own. Something she knew her daddy was happy for, especially how he gets to spend more time with his grandkids.
"We really are," said Ariel as she gave a small sigh and looks up. "I just wish mom was here with us to see all of this."
Attina knew after their mother's death, that they all wished she was still with them. To be there when they all got married, to meet her grandkids, and spend time with them.
"Even if she isn't here, I know spiritually, she's always here with us," said Attina as she tries comforting her sister. "And I'm sure she'd be proud of all of us, especially you."
Ariel knew her sister was right but isn't sure about the part about her. "I'm sure if she was here though, she would have made sure I wouldn't have done something so reckless like seeing Ursula."
Attina knows her sister still regrets what she did that day. When she met the sea witch, Ursula, and made that deal. The deal that would allow her to become human, but if she fails to honor her side of the deal, Ursula would take her.
Ariel still took the risk and wanted to try being with the man she loves. Yes, Attina knew it was still foolish of her for what she did, but she knew her sister loves Eric. So much, she was willing to risk her freedom to be with him. Ursula was defeated, but Ariel still felt foolish for making a deal with her and putting everyone's life at risk.
Attina goes to comfort her sister and tries to cheer her up. "Let's be honest. If mom was here, she'd likely would do all she could so you would meet Eric. I remember daddy telling us how mom was always trying to support whatever we wanted to do and could convince daddy to trust their daughters would make the right decision. Because she knows it's what would make us happy and knows they'll be there to support us."
Ariel didn't remember much about her mother. She remembers her face and when she sung to them, but not much else. But whenever daddy or others who knew her talked about what she was like, she believed them. She knew she was a good, kind, gentle, and caring mother, who wanted what was best for her family.
Attina could see her sister slowly smiling, before she decided to add one last thing that she knows will make her smile more and laugh. "And let's be honest? If she was still here, she'd knock out Ursula and Morgana for trying to mess with her family."
That did the trick as Ariel laughs softly and smiles knowing that was a possibility. She did hear some of the maids around saying about messing with a mother's child. How there's nothing more terrifying than a mother's wrath against those who try harming her children. Something she really believed in.
"Thank you, Attina. I appreciate this," said Ariel who's glad her sister cheered her up.
"You're welcome. Now, let's go see my niece and have some fun before tomorrow. And don't worry about the party," said Attina as the two sisters head out of the ballroom. "With Ursula dead and Morgana frozen in a block of ice, I doubt we have anything to worry about."
Arctic
Up north in the artic, there existed once the lair of Morgana, the sea witch and younger sister of Ursula. This was Morgana's secret hideout, which she has set up after her failed attempt to use Triton's granddaughter to get the Trident. She hid here with her three minions, while trying to work on another plan to get her revenge. Revenge against Ariel and her husband for killing her sister.
Thankfully, she was able to get her revenge when Ariel's daughter, Melody ran away from home. Morgana used her to not only bring her the trident, but to finally get her revenge on Ariel and Eric. However, her plan ended up failing when Melody got the trident away from her and gave it back to her grandfather. Triton would then use his weapon to imprison Morgana in ice and watched as she sunk beneath the sea.
Never to be seen again.
As for Morgana's minions? The stingrays, Cloak and Dagger ended up being caught a few days after the incident. Both being locked away to pay for their crimes. While the tiger shark, Undertow managed to elude capture. Hiding out in the darkest parts of the sea, avoiding being seen, and if any did find him, he'd make sure they never report his sightings or capture him.
After four years have passed, Undertow has seen his pursuers have appeared to stop looking for him. Allowing him to finally make his way around without about being discovered.
"Now that I finally got that stupid king and his little guards off my back, I can now figure out what to do," Undertow knows he can't stay around here in Morgana's destroyed lair. "I think its time for me to move somewhere warmer and more tropical."
Undertow swims over to the map of the world and begins picking out the best place to go. "The Caribbeans sound lovely this time of year. Maybe I can find myself some pretty young shark ladies and have some fun devouring the locals."
Undertow soon swims over to the imprisoned frozen Morgana, who he had found, but made no efforts trying to free her.
"Gee, I wish I could help free you, Morgana. But since the only way to do that is with Triton's magic, I don't think I'll be able to get you out," said Undertow while mocking his former boss. "And trust me. The last thing I want is to end up being turned into a guppy again."
Despite being frozen, Morgana was completely aware of where she's at and hear everything the traitorous shark is saying to her. She couldn't speak, but she was mentally cursing him for betraying her like this.
"So, I guess this is goodbye," said Undertow as he goes over to grab his belongings, which wasn't a lot. "So long, take care, and see ya when you eventually thaw out…" as he prepared to leave, he turns back towards her and laughs once more. "In about a thousand years from now."
He laughs one more time, not noticing a dark shadow appearing overhead. Once he noticed the lack of light, was when he stopped laughing and looks up. Even Morgana looked up too to see what it was. The shadowy outline showed it was a ship, a very large ship.
"What is that?" Undertow knew it couldn't be Ariel and Eric's ship. Its way too big and has no reason to come up here. He later scoffed and figured it's just another group of humans. "Must be some dumb humans who got lost and came out here. Oh well. A meal is a meal."
The large shark decided he'd try sinking this ship. Get filled up with some tasty humans, before making his long trip. The moment he got close though, a large net was shot towards him. Wrapping around the shark as he struggled to get freed.
He tries trashing around, didn't work. So, he tries biting it, only for his teeth to break. "What kind of freaking net is this?" he shouts as the net soon completely captured him.
The net is soon being lifted as Undertow tries to get freed. But not matter what he did, he couldn't get freed. In fact, each time he struggled, the net seems to be tightening up more. Keeping him from unable to move and get out of his predicament.
The net soon is pulled up till the shark was above water. Not all the way since he needs the water to breath. He was just out of it enough so he could see his captors. He took notice of the flag they bore and knew what they were.
"Pirates," he muttered under his breath. "Filthy disgusting pirates," while its true that pirates are just as bad as Undertow and Morgana, it didn't mean they liked one another. "I don't know who you are or what you want, but you made a big mistake capturing me."
"Is that so?" the voice of a woman could be heard as she appears holding on to the rope ladder. "Because it seems we caught just who were looking for, Undertow."
Undertow seems surprised this human girl knows who he is and how she can understand him. "Who are you? How do you know who I am and understand what I'm saying?"
The woman appeared to be in her early 20s, with long black hair, blue eyes, and light tan skin. She also appears to be wearing a pirate uniform and coat as she looks down at the shark.
"Let's just say, you can thank my mother for that. I believe you and my frozen aunt know her," said the woman hinting at who her mother is.
Undertow got the hint but couldn't really believe it. "Impossible."
The woman soon hears someone walking towards them, causing her to smile. "We found the fish, are you ready, uncle?"
The figure appears to be human, in his late 50s with long silver hair, blue eyes, tan skin, and wearing a cloak that covered much of his body. But around his neck is a medallion, with a strange symbol in the middle.
"I'm ready, my dear," said the mysterious man as a small growl could be heard echoing from him. "Get what we need. Once we have the map, then we'll be one step closer to taking back what is rightfully mine.'
That's the end of the chapter and it looks like trouble is brewing. Some good moments with Gabby and her grandpa, while the same with Ariel and her sister. I do hate how Disney never gave us more moments between the sisters. Hell, not even have them interact with their niece.
Come on, Disney. Seriously? That would have been such a fun moment to see. And would be nice to have them interact with Melody.
Also, Urchin appeared in the Little Mermaid animated series that appeared on Disney in the 90s. A shame he never appeared in the sequel movie. So, I decided to add him in. He's not a bad character and grows as one over time.
Also, I need to point this out and my friend also wanted this cleared up. No, we've never seen the Descendants movies. We know just Maleficent and Ursula's kids. That's about it.
However, this girl is not who you all think it is. If the way I described what she looks like isn't convincing enough, then I don't know what is. Who she is will be explained next time, but again though, it's not the one from the Descendants movies. Just letting you all know.
Still, how will things go for everyone now that we appear to have a new threat? Will they be ready for what's coming? Will this new foe ruin Melody's birthday? And when will our pirate girl meet the princess?
Tune in next time to find out & thank you all for the support for my friend. He appreciates all the support for his story and if you like how this chapter went, then please leave some reviews. Just nothing negative please. See you all next time, take good care, and have a good day.
