Since none of you voted, I shall make the executive desicion to make it Cinderella Castle.  Spea now or forever hold your peace.

I feel like I'm talking to myself.

Ariel~

I got this weird invitation the other day.  Scuttle brought it through the window of my room in Eric's castle.  It was all soggy.  He said it was sent to my father, but it was for me.  It requested my presence in Orlando, Florida at Cinderella Castle for a meeting of Disney characters.  Actually, it didn't request my presence.  It said that I was going to be transported by magic, if I wanted to or not. 

I don't even know where I'm being transported.  I don't know what a 'Disney character' is either.  Whatever it is, I am one.  What does being one entail?  I'm going to fight going there with all I'm worth.  I'm not leaving my little baby Melody [OOC: assume she's a baby] and I have no idea what this is for.

A little more OOC: TNO, do what you will with this.  I think that Ursula could possibly be ripped from another time in the story or even from before, so she's not, ya know, dead.

Also, any other Kingdom Keepers fans out there, I think that we should just kind of ignore the ideas about the Disney fandom that is set up, just for the purposes of the roleplay.  Same goes for Kingdom Hearts.

I had something else to say, but now I forget...

"WHAT NOW, SMEE?"

"You, you" he stammered.

"GET ON WITH IT, SMEE!"

"You're, you're."  I was swept up in a whirlwind.  As I floated into the sky, I heard Smee yell, "Never mind."

The next thing I knew, I was in a giant spinning teacup.  There were two children in it, too.  They giggled.  I decided to make my escape by climbing out of the teacup and onto the floor.  The teacups stopped spinning and an alarm went off.  A security guard started coming toward me, and I saw a crocodile walking around randomly.  I promptly screamed and hid in the teacup again.

Ariel~

"I will resist!" I screamed into the sky when the green whirlwind touched down.  Eric had tied me to a column in the castle.  I would not be ripped away from my family. 

"Stop screaming!" the cranky old guard yelled from his post. "There are people a'sleeping in there, Missus Prince Eric."

"I'm trying not to be whisked away by a whirlwind, Chuck," I replied. "Excuse me if I scream."

He sighed and went back to watching the seas.  Must.  Hold.  On.

The whirlwind dropped from the sky and brought me with it.  When the hazy green skies cleared, I was still tied to a column at the castle.  There were just more people.  Many of them in tasteless fanny packs.  And even the women were wearing pants!  How unfashionable!

"Could you get me down from here?!" I screamed at a man in a striped suit and hat (coughcoughKingdomKeepersreference).  A pin on his shirt said "Billy Boston MA".  He checked a paper in his hands.  "You're here for the conference in Cinderella Castle?" he asked. 

"I don't want to be," I said.

"Yep, you're definitely the real Ariel," he said. "Come on."

"I'm tied up, Billy Boston."

"I'm from Boston, Miss."

"Just get me down!"

He did.  "Come with me, ma'am," he said.  I followed him through a crowd of people.  We were headed toward a large castle with golden and blue turrets.  It was really quite magnificent.  This is why I like you humans.  Beautiful architecture.  I look at all the clothing people are wearing.  One man is wearing really short pants and a pink shirt with the sleeves cut off.  That's why I don't like humans.  Garish clothing.

"Ariel!   Ariel!" a little girl cries.  She is wearing a dress that looks almost like my outfit and tail underwater.  Her wig is colored just like my hair.  Well, this is strange. 

"Can I have your autograph, Ariel?" she asks.  Two people who must be her parents look on. 

"She's not on duty right now.  I'm sorry," Billy says gruffly. 

I've been princess long enough to know that you should never say that.  A princess's job is never done.

"Of course I can, little mermaid," I say, giving Billy a mean look.  I sign her little book with my name.

The mother holds up a little black box.  "Smile!"

I do as she says, though I am unsure of what it does.  A little flash of light erupts.  Well, that seemed pointless.

"Thank you, Ariel," the little girl says.

"No, thank you."

Billy leads me away, still heading toward the castle.  "That's interesting.   Your signature is exactly like the cast members' who play you."

I look at him, confused.  "Never mind.  C'mon, we're almost here."

@ Melody: Yeah! Forgive, I guess I am more prone to Cinderella Castle (I mean, I AM Cinderella, but anyhoot). Also, I have read Kingdom Keepers and am a HUGE Kingdom Hearts fan, but shall ignore both for the sake of this thread.

Cinderella sat gazing over rolling fields of the kingdom she now helped rule.  To think, she was a princess! Unfortunatly, the prince had been called away on urgent business, so it was just her, the mice, and Bruno. Suddenly, the mice, Jack, Mary, Gus, and the others came running into the room, with a rolled up piece of paper. "Found this outside Cinderelly's door! Thought it important!" Jack said, panting slightly from trying to carry it in. Cinderella picked it up and read it. It was a formal invitation to come for a Disney convention at... Cinderella Castle?! What on earth? The mice stood watching Cinderella and saw her reaction. "What's wrong Cinderelly?" Jack asked, concern filling voice. But before Cinderella could answer, they weren't there anymore. Cinderella, Jack, Mary and Gus stood in the middle of some sort of tree house. "Where are we?" Cinderella asked herself, revolving on the spot, taking everything in. People milled around, kids ran and played. A castle stood off far in the distance. 

Okay, so, I don't know if you really can see Cinderella Castle from the Swiss Family Robinson tree house, but, I hope that's okay. Btw, does anyone else love that move? Also, where do we go from here?

Flotsam~

"Hail to the sea Queen!" I chanted in chorus with my companion, Jetsam.

"Quiet, fools!" she snapped. She flounced across the inside of our cave. "I have intercepted an...interesting message on its way to the palace." She arranged her tentacles and prepared to read the letter out loud. 

"Who was it for?" Jetsam interrupted. Honestly. He is so dumb. 

Our mistress silenced him with a glare. "It was on its way to the palace, as I already said, so obviously it was for King Triton!" She doesn't like being interrupted. 

Jetsam swam to me, sheepishly. Ursula cleared her throat like a bag of pebbles rattling arou--I mean, like a dainty court lady. 

"Your esteemed highness Princess Ariel," read the letter. Apparently the people who wrote the letter needed an update. Ariel didn't live in the palace anymore. 

"We congradulate you on your defeat and re-banishment of the sea witch..." Queen Ursula curled her tentacle, crushing the letter. For a second her eyes blazed. Then she calmed, and read the letter silently to herself, hitching her eyebrows higher and higher. I supposed she would read it to us when she was finished, skipping the boring parts. Jetsam and I bore easily. I took a moment to think (which Mistress Ursula says is rare for me.)

So the people knew about Ursula's defeat. What they didn't know is that Ursula had faked being pulled into the sea. It had been a trial for her to pretend defeat, but she simly hadn't been strong enough at the time and had to sketch a hasty retreat. We swam off into the depths, and I'm assuming most merfolk had not considered us enough of a threat to pursue us. That was their mistake.

"Boys!" The sea witch sounded pleased with herself. "We're going to crash a party."

***************

Okay, that was it. Just a little info--I'm using the musical version, so the eels are electric instead of Moray (but I'm inclined to let them keep their magic eyes.) At the end, Ursula is pulled into the depths of the ocean and the eels swim off. Sorry if my writing is not up to the standard. (Or up to TNO's expectations.) And if you wanted to do something entirely different with Ursula, sorry! I'm also sorry that my writing doesn't seem quite in character. And I'm sorry for apologizing so much. :)

=^..^= 

I watched Mulan yesterday! With ru-kun and Ru-kun's sister! It was interesting, to say the least. Anyway, here I go! (Oh by the way, I'm basing this directly after Mulan finishes. None of that Mulan II business.)

Being a guardian of the Fa family can get so exausting, sometimes you can't even spell properly. The name's Mushu. I'm a dragon, not a lizard, and it's my own personal job to take care of the Fa family. A word of advice for all you youngsters out there: Watch out for crickets.

My last big job was helping a pretty young girl named Mulan destroy the Huns. She never would have gotten so far without my help. I gave advice, I trained her, I acted like her own mother. And did she thank me? Ohhh noooo, much to busy to thank Mushu! Now there's some creepy commander guy who's name I forgot hanging round all the time and both Mulan and her granny like him way too much. If I had my way, he could get back on his fat cow, and ride himself right on out of here! But no! Surely not! 

So, anyway, my adventure (after the Mulan one, of couse) all began when the big family ancestor guy told me that I was wanted in a place called Cinderella Castle. Now, I don't turn down jobs, but I had absolutely no idea what "Cinderella Castle" was. And neither did the big guy. All he  knew was that some important what-not had wanted me there and right then. So. I was already to climb on my trusty panda (completely random: The scene were the panda climbs up the tree is my absolute favorite. Only panda cubs climb trees! And not just walk up the trunk!) and search for this weird castle thingy but then some mistic mumbo-jumbo magic stuff happened and before you know it, I wasn't in China at all.  

Ariel~

"Billy, who is this?" I asked, gesturing toward the girl in the blue dress.

"I'm Cinderella," the girl replied.  The people here even have weird names.  Although, she doesn't look like the other people here.  Her dress is much more tasteful than what they wear.  And her hair is immaculate.

"I'm Ariel," I said, "It's wonderful to meet you."

"See, this is why I asked for the princesses," Billy told us, "You guys are wicked polite."

"I should hope I'm not wicked!" Cinderella responded.

"No, it means very," he said, "I forgot you guys are from like a millenia ago.  We have to pick up Belle next, then Snow White and Jasmine.  Rapunzel's been here before when Flynn went missing, so she won't need help.  But then we need to get Tiana..."

"What?" I asked.

"Just come with me," he replied, "And don't step on her mouse friends."
