Deal with Ursula

Tyson's POV

"Flounder, why can't you just tell me what this is all about?" Ariel asks as we entered the cave.

"You'll see. It's a surprise" Flouder tells her. We enter the main room and see a statue of Eric. Ariel gasps in shock and give Flounder a hug.

"Oh, Flounder- Flounder you're the best!" she tells him. Before letting go and swimming over to the statue. "It looks just like him. It even has his eyes" she states with a broad smile. I smile happy my sister is happy. She starts to talk to the statue while I swim over to the piano. "Daddy!" she exclaims and I turn to see dad. And he looks mad.

"I consider myself a reasonable merman. I set certain rules, and I expect those rules to be obeyed" he tells us.

"But father..." I try o reason with him.

"Is it true you rescued two humans from drowning?" he demands.

"We had too" we tell him.

"Contact between the human world and the mer-world is strictly forbidden. Ariel, Tyson you know that. Everyone knows that" dad states.

"They would of died" Ariel tells him.

"Two less humans to worry about!" he shouts.

"You don't even know them" I tell him.

"Know them? I don't have to know them. They're all the same. Spineless, savage, harpooning, fish-eaters, incapable of any feeling" he rants.

"Daddy, I love him!" Ariel exclaims. She then covers her mouth as I swam in front of her.

"No . . . Have you lost your senses completely? He's a human, you're a mermaid!" dad reminds her angrily.

"I don't care" she states.

"So help me Ariel, I am going to get through to you. And if this is the only way, so be it" he says as his trident starts to glow.

"Father, no!" I shout and swim to go stop him. As eh starts to destroy Ariel's artifacts "Stop this!" I shout as I tried to grab the trident away from him. But he pushes me away.

"No, please- Daddy, stop!" Ariel shouts swimming over to him. As he looks at the statue. "Daddy, Nooo!" she cries. But he does it anyway, he destroys the statue. Ariel begins crying over the statue and he leaves.

"Ariel!" I shout and swim over wrapping my arms around her.

"Ariel, I..." Sebastian tries to say.

"Just go away" Ariel cries. Sebastian and Flounder leave. As I comfort my little twin sister. "Why? Why?" she cries.

"Humans took our mother away" I remind her. "But don't worry I'll talk to him" I assure her. Just then two eels appeared.

"Poor girl" one says.

"Poor, sweet girl" the other says.

"She has a very serious problem, along with the boy" the first says.

"If only there were something we could do" the second states.

"But there is something" the first tells him.

"Who are you?" Ariel and I ask them.

"We represent someone who can help you both" the first one tells us.

"Someone who could make all your dreams come true" the second states.

"Just imagine" they say together.

"You and your prince" the second states looking at Ariel.

"You and your princess" the first says looking at me.

"Together, forever" they say.

"I don't understand" Ariel tells them.

"Ursula has great powers" the second one tells her.

"The sea witch?!" I demand getting in front of Ariel.

"Why, that's - I couldn't possibly - no! Get out of here! Leave us alone!" Ariel shouts.

"Suit yourself" the first says as they start to swim away.

"It was only a suggestion" the second states. He flicks the statue's broken face towards Ariel. Who picks it up.

"Wait!" she calls.

"Yes" they say looking back at us.

"Are you sure Ariel?" I ask her.

"I want to see him again and I know you want to see Anya. Why not just hear her out? I mean father is wrong about humans, he could be wrong about her" she tells me.

"Ok, but I am not leaving your side" I tell her. We follow the eels out of the cave. As they take us to see Ursula.

(Time skip)

Sebastian and Flounder tried to stop us. But we ignored them. We reached Ursula's cavern and see a garden of living plants. They tried to stop us from entering. But we still did.

"You both are here because you have a thing for these humans. This, er, prince fellow and his sister the princess. Not that I blame you, he is quite a catch, isn't he?" she asks Ariel. "Well, angel fish, the solution to your problem is simple. The only way to get what you both want - is to become a humans yourselves" she states.

"Can you do that?" Ariel asks her.

"What would you want in return?" I ask.

"My dear, sweet children. That's what I do - it's what I live for. To help unfortunate merfolk - like yourselves. Poor souls with no one else to turn too" she states. She sings a song.

"Now, here's the deal. I will make you both a potion that will turn you guys into humans for three days. Got that? Three days. Now listen, this is important. Before the sun sets on the third day, Ariel you've got to get dear ol' princey to fall in love with you. That is, he's got to kiss you. Not just any kiss, the kiss of true love. If he does kiss you before the sun sets on the third day, you both will remain humans, permanently. But if he doesn't, you both turn back into merpeople, and you belong to me" she explains.

"Ariel are you sure about this?" I ask her.

"Do we have a deal?" Ursula asks.

"If we become humans, we'll never be with our father or sisters again" Ariel states.

"Exactly and three days isn't a lot of time" I tell her.

"That's right. But you'll have your man and woman. An each other. Life's full of tough choices, innit? Oh, and there is one more thing. We haven't discussed the subject of payment. You can't get something for nothing, you know" Ursula tells us.

"But we don't have..." we try to tell her.

"I'm not asking much. Just a token, really, a trifle. What I want from you both is, your voices" Ursula tells us.

"Our voices?" Ariel asks.

"You've got it, sweetcakes. No more talking, singing, zip" Ursula states.

"But without our voices, how can we..." Ariel starts to ask.

"You'll have your looks! Your pretty face! And don't underestimate the importance of body language" Ursula tells us. She sings again and Ariel signs the contract before I could stop her. Ursula takes her voice and we're turned human. Sebastian and Flounder help us swim to the surface. As humans can't breath underwater like merpeople.
