Epilogue

Arius sadly gazed at Y/n on a rock, who was still passed out. Waves were crashing onto her legs, but they remained as they were. It was as if her mission from the ocean had been completed.

Y/n got up, leaning on her elbows and looked down. She saw the water on her legs. Her legs.

"No..."

She looked up to find Arius looking back at her. Sadly, she lifted her hand and waved, then turned back to the castle, cursing her stupid legs and their stupid fleshiness and their stupid non-s/f/c color.

Arius watched her go, biting his lip. She was gone again.

Behind him, Triton watched with a sigh. To Sebastian, he said, "He really does love her, doesn't he, Sebastian?"

He nodded sympathetically. "Well, it's like I always say, Your Majesty. Children got to be free to lead their own life."

"You always say that?" he asked a little mockingly.

Sheepishly, he shrugged.

Triton sighed again. "Then I guess there's just one problem left."

"And what's 'dat, Your Majesty?"

With a sad look, he responded, "How much I'm going to miss him."

He looked at the king disbelievingly as he put his trident in the water and a yellow glow rippled across the clear waters to Arius.

He tore his gaze from his star-crossed lover to his green tail - or perhaps we should say his brown legs. He looked back at his father and smiled at him, Triton smiling back.

Jumping into the water, he called, "Y/n, wait!"

She looked back, her eyes lighting up when she saw Arius in a sparkly purple suit and having his legs back, his arms stretched out for her.

Arius:
Now we can walk
Now we can run...

She ran and jumped into them, Arius spinning her around. Placing her down, they kissed.

Two Years Later

OR


Wedding bells rang out as Arius and Y/n shared their first married kiss, Max breaking it up to lick the groom, then the bride.

Guests both on the ship and in the water cheered. Carlotta's smile broke into a sob. She grabbed Grimsby's tie as a handkerchief, burying her face into it, startling him.

Triton and Arius' sisters waved goodbye to him. Scuttle, holding Flounder flapped over. Y/n kissed Flounder on the cheek and ruffled Scuttle's hair. He began to lower Flounder, but stopped last minute to let him wave goodbye one more time to his friends.

Sebastian, atop the wedding cake, smiled tearfully until he saw Louis with a knife raised over him. He jumped off and the chef cut the cake in half.

Sebastian ran down the walkway as Louis threw a knife at him and chased him around. Looking around, Sebastian calmed down when he saw a rope and snipped with his claw, grinning. A wooden beam swang and knocked Louis in the face. His teeth fell out and he collapsed.

Sebastian jumped into the water with a "Yes!", landing between Scuttle and Flounder, who applauded him. Bowing, he said not so modestly, "T'ank you, t'ank you."

Triton raised himself up with a fountain of water, looking lovingly at his son. He pulled him into a hug, Arius whispering, "I love you, Dad."

He pulled away, his eyes sparkling, then turned back to his bride. Erica had come next to her, both of them facing Triton once they saw him and curtsied. He smiled back at them.

Y/n took Arius' hand. He looked back at her, his heart melting at her smile.

Y/n:
Now we can stay all day in the sun
Just you and me...

Arius:
Now I can be...

Arius, Y/n:
Part of your world!

Triton raised up his trident, a rainbow appearing over the ship. The couple waved towards the sea, then turned back to each other, kissing once again.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah...

And they all lived happily ever after...

The end.

Arius:
There is music in the air, can you hear it?
It's in two, no, maybe three
Or maybe four
And I see you dressed in white
With two feet that feel so light
It's as though as they've never ever touched the floor

One dance, just you and me
Beneath the moon, beside the sea
One dance and it's happily ever after
One dance and you will see
We're not so different, you and me
Just us two,
Me and you
One dance...

Y/n:
There are stars that fill the night, can you see them?
There are two, or three or gee...
A million more
And I see you in their light
Oh me? A dance? All right
Just to move and glide with you across the floor

One dance, just you and me
Beneath the moon, beside the sea
One dance and it's happily ever after
One dance and you will see
We're not so different, you and me
Just us two
Me and you

Arius:
I would change who I am
Change the sea for the sand
Just to stand with you

Y/n:
I would leap at the chance
For a glimpse of a glance
Of one dance with you

Arius:
One dance, just you and me
Beneath the moon, beside the sea

Y/n:
One dance and it's happily ever after

Arius:
One dance and you will see

Y/n:
We're not so different, you and me

Arius:
Just us two...

Y/n:
Dream come true...

Arius, Y/n:
One dance...
One dance...
