New version of the Little Mermaid....=D

This time the main character will be Prince Eric =)

Our Story Begins...
Many years ago, two young friends were playing on the beach. Ever mischievous, they began daring each other to do foolhardy things...

Max: Go on! I will watch for grown ups. Be careful when you climb on the cliff alright?

He was known for always getting into trouble. Usually urged on by his best friend. Max.

*SLIP*

 Eric: Max! Help!

Max: Hold on! I will find someone.

As he hung between life and death on the cliff, Eric noticed someone looking up at him. It was a beautiful young mermaid on the ocean surface. Somehow, her gaze gave him the courage to hang on.

Max: We're coming!

Eric glanced back for one last look at the beautiful creature. Then, She was gone. The mermaid had defied King Triton's strict order to never mix with the surface dwelling folk.

Not long ago, the city of Auroqua had been destroyed by a pirate's curse. Triton, King of the undersea realm, saved as many of the Auroquans as he could. And on the way, he found two sisters named Ariel and Attina hiding from them. The King took both of them to where he was gathering survivors of the disaster.

As the sisters grew. Ariel began having remarkably vivid dreams where she could foresaw things that helped the Auroquans to avoid many disasters.The King praised Ariel and often called on her for advice. Attina felt neglected as she realized her sister's talent grew and the King favor her. She began having nightmares of terrible disaster that would always come true. The Auroquans began to feel that Attina was causing those. Eventually the King had to send Attina into exile to protect his people. Ariel couldn't do anything but seeing her only sister being cast out from Auroaqua.

In secret, the Auroquans began building a new city where they could be safe from outsiders. But Ariel's vivid dreams still came to her. And often they included the face of the young boy....And so our story begins.

A Pirate's Life...
Now older and supposedly wiser, Eric and Max have chosen the life of a pirate, rather than a good honest living as their parents had hoped...

The Black Phantom is the most terrifying ship ever to sail the five seas, whose Captain Eric, who loves everything about being a pirate and with his first mate Max, Eric's best friend from childhood.

Eric: What a splendid party! Shouldn't we paid them a visit, folks?

Crew: Aye! Captain!

Eric: If you don't mind we will be relieving you of your heavy treasures. (flashing his knife towards the guests)


Man: You fools! You should not be doing this!


Woman: You had better get away from here as soon as possible. SHE catches hold of you!


Eric: Don't worry, my pretty. My ship can out sail anything in the water. Now hand over the necklace too!


Woman: You fool! You have no idea who rules these waters!


Max: We're not scared woman . Now hurry up and hand it over.

The woman had no other choice but to do what she had told.


Woman: Once SHE hears of this, you won't see another sunset!

Without listening to any warning from the woman, Eric and his crew celebrate from the harvest they obtain today. While not far away, on Skull Island, news of Eric's raid on the wedding party arrived. The legend call her Captain Ursula. But no one dares speak her name for fear of attracting her attention.

Ursula: I will find this Black Phantom and send his crew to the bottom of the sea.

That night, Eric once more dreamed of the beautiful mermaid he had seen as a child. She rose from the waves and pleaded with Eric to leave the life of a pirate behind and abandon his ship.

Next day...

Eric: That was a very good haul yesterday my men. Let's see if we can pull off another today!


Max: Looks like the clouds is angry. We're in for a bad storm.

However, is not the bad storm they see....

Eric: What is that?

Miles away from the Black Phantom, Ariel is awakened by another vivid dream. In it, she saw the young boy of  her childhood in desperate trouble. As she grabbed her green magic necklace, she hurries to the surface without a thought toward King Triston's law: Never mix with the surface folk.

Crew: To arms! Protect the ship!

Eric: Max! Get down here. I need you!


Max: Hold on! I'm coming! But there's too many of them. We have to abandon ship.


Eric: NEVER!


Max: Get to the skiff. It's our only hope. Hold them off. Then drop down and I'll catch you.


Eric: Back off, you thieves. You'll never take my ship!

However when Eric was fighting, another thief climb up the rope and whack Eric's head with a timber from above.

Eric: Uh!


Max: Oh no! Eric! I'm coming!

A bomb hit hard on the skiff.

Max: No!

Suddenly, two ugly looking eels appears on the ocean surface, and they grinned towards Max.

Max: Who are you? Stay away from me! Help!

After a long fierce battle, Eric's crew were captured.

Ursula: There is only one ruler of the five seas, and that's me, Captain Ursula. Those of you who surrender can become part of my crew and those who do not will walk the plank!

As Ursula towed the Black Phantom back to Skull Island, Eric sank deeper into the ocean.

Luckily, Ariel made in time and she found him. Quickly she put the green magic necklace upon his neck.

Ariel: I'm Ariel. The magic in this necklace will allow you to breathe under water. Your ship is captured and your crew as well. There is no place for you to go. No one to help you but me.

Eric: Then what am I to do?


Ariel: Come with me and I will show you wonders of the deep sea.

It doesn't take that long for Eric to discover the wonders of the deep sea..

Eric: What IS that? It's more splendid than the great castle of Merrydell!


Ariel: We have been building ourselves a new home. But progress is slow and we are running out of Aurotite.


Eric: Aurotite? What is that?


Ariel: Not now. We are coming into the city...Quickly! Hide under here.

A group of Auroqua soldiers was patrolling.

Ariel: It is extremely forbidden for us to mix with surface dwellers. If they find you, they will never let you return home.


Eric: Then why did you bring me here?


Ariel: I did not know what else to do..

Heading through the city cautiously, Ariel brought Eric to her room.

Ariel: The King gave me these quarters and is kind to me. But that would change if he found out I who brought you here. You can stay here until you recover.

Ariel feed Eric a bottle of light green potion.

Ariel: Drink this, It will help you to sleep and make you well.


While Eric slept, Ariel tried to think of what to do. Eventually, the King called for her, to ask if her dreams had warned of any danger. While she was gone, Eric awoke and went exploring on his own. He saw a magnificent city under construction. And a multitude of mermaids and sea-creatures going here and there.

In the midst of exploring, Eric saw a group of mermaid's were enclosing to a mermaid weapon maker.

Weapon maker: This is a sword made of Aurotite. It has a most remarkable ability to cut through water without resistance. With swords like these, New Auroqua can be defended from any invasion.

The pirate in Eric could not resist taking one of the amazing weapons for himself. He hid the dagger inside his cloth and waited in the quarters for Ariel's return.

Ariel: I brought you something to eat. How are you feeling?


Eric: Much better. Now that I'm recover, I must return to the surface and settle a battle with that fiend who stole my ship.


Ariel: You cannot go back to your life as a pirate. My dreams have never been more clear. There's is nothing but death ahead that awaits you.


Eric: I love pirating. The adventure, the treasure. She stripped it all away from me. Even if I died, I will get her pays with her life.


Ariel: *SIGH*. If that's the case, I can't let you stay here. This is no place for land dwellers in Auroqua. Come. This passage will take us to a place far outside the city.

After passing through the surface, Ariel helped Eric to returned safely above the water surface.

Attina: Hello, sister.


Ariel: Attina!


Attina: It's been a long time. Are you no longer Triston's favourite?


Ariel: I still have my dreams, and they still help our people.


Attina: YOUR people, Ariel, not mine. I am banished, remember?


Ariel: I did not ask for the dreams to come to me, sister. What would you have me to do? Keep them to myself?


Attinal: Neither did I ask for my nightmare. They horrify me in my sleep, and my waking hours are filled with loneliness. Go back to your luxury, Ariel. It is better that we never meet again.

Ariel swam home with a heavy heart, knowing that she could do nothing more for either Eric or her sister.

While Eric returned to the surface, he hid Ariel's magic necklace in his pocket and swam toward a fishing boat he saw nearby. After hearing Eric's journey of shipwrecked and had been floating on a lifeboat for many days, they gave him a free ride to the nearby island, which is the Skull Island.

Eric went to the nearest inn and rented a small room.With nowhere else to go and no any information about the ship and the crew, Eric didn't what to do.. When suddenly he saw one of the member of his crew working in the inn.

Desperately, Eric hurried and approached him and ask him what had happen with other crews and the ship. Eric ask about Max's live and dead while the crew told him that Max was captured by some kind of sea eels. But don't know where they've taken him. After free his crew from the labour in the inn, Eric began to tell him the story of how he met Ariel and the marvelous sight of Auroqua. However, all the while someone else was listening attentively...

Ursula's henchman: Interesting...Ursula will want to know about this... So they are rebuilding eh! What fools!

Captain Ursula's most trusted henchman quickly made his way to see her.

Ursula's henchman: He said the city was a very prosperous. It sounded as if they had been building for a while...

Ursula: That fat king must be more resilient than I though..Looks like I will have to teach them another lesson!

Ursula and his henchman stayed up late, laying their plans for a new invasion of Auroaqua.

The next morning, Eric tried to gather information around Skull Island. After hours of searching, he heard that the ship seems to sailed toward north east out of the port towards a small cove of islands.  With this information, Eric headed to the place. And he found the Black Phantom but is all rotten and cover with rubbish. When Eric explode inside, he found a whole bunch of new weapons! And his crew were hiding on the deepest part underneath the ship. Eric asks for Max's information, but it seems like no one saw him after the battle... Despite of that, firstly, Eric and his crew clean and fix the ship again and made their escape.

Far away under the sea, Ariel's dreams come more frequently than ever. She sees terrible dangers come to New Auroqua and she also dreams of someone she only knows as Eric's childhood friend had trapped by the sea eels in the air pocket of an undersea cave. And so Ariel returns to the surface secretly and tell Eric.

Ariel: Eric! Something terrible is going to happen to Auroqua. I've dreamed it.


Eric: Well, my best friend has vanished and I can't do anything about it...


Ariel: I know where he is. You can rescue him if I help you. But you have to promise to help me to fight for the invasion towards Auroqua.

Eric: Fine.I promise. Are you sure we can do this by our self? The sea eels are things nightmares are made of. How can we ever beat them?


Ariel: It's okay. I have a little help on its way.

Ariel whistle out a loud tune across the sea realm and Ariel's childhood pet hears his mistress's call and begins the long journey to find her. But it took way too long for it arrive, so Eric swam into the cave desperately to rescue his friend.

Ariel: Eric, No! We don't have a chance alone.

But is too late, the two see eels, Flotsam and Jetsam, swarm out and crawled all over Eric.

Eric: Back off, you ugly eels! Keep your claws off me.

Flotsam: Go back to Auroqua. You are not wanted here.


Ariel: Not until we have rescued Eric's prisoner!


Ariel managed to evade her oppenent and swam into the cave and she found Max and freed him.


Max: Quickly! We must find the potion those eels made for me to drink. It allows me to breathe under water.

When they found the potion, Ariel and Max made their way to find Eric. After a battle between the eels, they managed to escape from the claws of the eels. Remember from the dream, Ariel urged for Eric's help again.

Max: We have to help her, Eric. If she didn't rescue me, I'd still be in the clutches of those evil eels.


Eric: I know. Go back to your people, Ariel. Me and my crew will be coming shortly.


Ariel: How do I know you will come to help us?


Eric: Don't worry. You have rescued me too many times. And you helped save Max. When a pirate owes a debt, it is always repaid.


At last, Ursula and his crew had successfully invaded into New Auroqua. It seems like they could transform into another kind of mode that they could breath and move freely in water. King Triton and his tried to defend them with their newly invented weapons, but Ursula's crew was far more stronger.

On the far side of the city, Ariel and Attina also watching the battle.


Ariel: We have to help them, Attina. King Triton should have trust on what I told him. But he never listen a word from a land dweller's information. Because of this he banished me out of Auroaqua.

Attina: Are you mad? You will get yourself killed. This is their fate for banishing us. Plus even if we want to help them, there's only two of us and we don't stand any chance. Leave them be!

Eric: Have you forgotten that I promised you that I could come and help you?

Appearing in front of them, were Eric and Max and their whole crew. They each have a sip of the potion that Max stole from the sea eels. And also Ariel's pet, Flounder seems to found his mistress and were ready to help for the battle.

Ariel: See Attina, the odds are already getting better, now we have so many!


Attina: Fine. I will help out not for Auroqua but because of my sister.

Ariel: Attina..!


Max: But how are you going to fight without a sword?


Attina: I have something more powerful than the sword. (hands glow with blue light)

Ursula's pirates have nothing to combat Attina's magic. They become easy targets for Eric, Max and Ariel and other crew so also the Auroqua soldiers. When Ursula sense that the battle might lose, Ursula managed to escaped with some of her crews.

Ursula: Foolish King! You may have won this time. But nobody will never defeat me!

And Ursula managed to made her retreat above to the surface of the ocean.

After the battle, the King calls over Ariel, Attina, Eric and Max.

King Triton: I thank you Ariel and apologize for you earlier. Your quarters are yours to keep for as long as you wish.


Ariel: I thank you sire. But I will only return if Attina is given a full pardon as well.


King Triton: But of course, we all saw how Attina used her powers to help Auroqua and is welcome here anytime. As for you fellows pirate, brave Eric, the gates of the city are open to you and you crew anytime you wish to enter. You may also keep the Aurotite dagger you stole from us. May it serve you well.

Max: Captain Eric, the crew of the Black Phantom awaits your orders.


Eric: Then it's time we set off!


Ariel: You can stay, Eric. The power of the necklace will never fade. You may live in luxury forever here in Auroqua.

Eric: No, thank you, Ariel. That's no life for me. I need excitement and treasure. I will visit you when I can. But now my men need me.

Before long, Captain Eric has returned to the Black Phantom and they set sail once more toward new adventures!
