The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning2008

[In the morning, Then Ariel wakes up as well and hears something and see something flashing in the distance, Sebastian snoring]

Ariel:
Sebastian.

Sebastian:
Five more minutes, Mommy.

Ariel:
Sebastian, did you hear that?

Sebastian:
Leave me alone. Sleeping.

Ariel:
But there's something out there. Come on, help us find it.

Sebastian:
I'm tired. You go check it out.

[Ariel swim out to follow the sound, Sebastian watches her leave as Ariel swim to follow the sound, and she stopped near the kelp forest, She swim through the kelp forest, and she's amazed of what she seeing, A shiny cave is what she's entered, as she look through the walls]

Ariel:
[chuckles]

[Ariel looks around and sees a reflection of herself and then she sees something, Ariel picks up the box and opens it and King Triton dancing with Queen Athena.]

Sebastian:
It was an anniversary present. Your father had the music box made for your mother. Athena was more than his queen, you know. She was his best friend.

[Flashback of her and her sisters young, and Triton dances with Athena. And they play with each other, and young Ariel playing the piano for the first time. And her bandaged hand being kissed by King Triton]

Ariel:
[VO] The family together. Music playing all the time.

Sebastian:
[VO] The palace always echoing with laughter. [The two girls hide and then they tackled their father, and they laugh in joy, and fades to Triton and Athena being on the rock at the surface world. And we fade back to the present.] When your mother died, the whole kingdom was heartbroken. The heart that never healed was your father's. [Ariel are sad about this]

Ariel:
It's so sad. He's forgotten what it feels like to be happy. I... I have to bring this back to him.

Sebastian:
If you insist.

Ariel:
This is why we came here, isn't it? [Sebastian smiles and we cut to the gang]

Ray-Ray:
Whoa, whoa, let me get this straight. You led us out here...

Ink Spot:
To the armpit of nowhere, man.

Shelbow:
In the hope that Red might find the music box. And now you wanna go back to the palace...

Ink Spot:
To return the music box to the king...

Ray-Ray:
On the chance that maybe it'll...

Shelbow:
Remind him to remember how to be happy...

Ink Spot:
And then he'll bring music back?

Sebastian:
That about sums it up.

Cheeks:
Couldn't we just strap it to a dolphin? He'd get it eventually.

[The band gathered around again, to discuss it. And the band are done discussing it and say.]

Ray-Ray:
Listen, the band talked it over, and...

Shelbow:
We just can't take that chance.

Sebastian:
What?

Flounder:
Huh?

Ariel:
It's OK. Maybe someday it'll be different. You'll come home and play music all you want.

Ray-Ray:
Sure, Red. Someday. Someday.

Ariel:
Bye. [They swim different as Flounder is distaught by this]

Flounder:
What? No, no, wait. Ray-Ray! Guys! We can't just let them go back alone.

Ray-Ray:
Drop it, small fry.

Flounder:
But we took an oath! To jump, jive, wail, groove, rock steady, and at all times lend a helping hand to your fellow music lovers!

Ray-Ray:
The Catfish Club is history. That oath don't mean a thing.

Flounder:
Well, it still means something to me. Hey, Ariel! Wait up! Ariel! [Flounder swims up to Ariel's direction as the band watch him go]
