Editing Ash's Adventures of The Little Mermaid (section)

==Plot==
Ariel is a 16-year-old mermaid princess dissatisfied with underwater life in the underwater kingdom of Atlantica. She is fascinated by the human world, wanting desperately to become a human and live on the land. With her best friend Flounder, Ariel collects and keeps random human artifacts in her grotto and consults a seagull named Scuttle for inaccurate knowledge about human culture and the items she finds. Ariel's father, King Triton, and a crab who serves as his advisor/court composer named Sebastian, constantly warn her against humans and tell her that contact between merpeople and humans is forbidden.

One night, Ariel, Flounder, and an unwilling Sebastian travel to the ocean surface to watch a celebration for Prince Eric's birthday on a ship. Ariel falls in love with the prince instantly. Soon a violent storm arrives, wrecking the ship completely. Ariel rescues Eric from drowning and brings him to shore. She sings to him, but returns to the sea just as he regains consciousness to avoid being discovered. Fascinated by the memory of her mesmerizing voice, Eric vows to find and marry the girl who saved his life, and Ariel vows to find a way to join him as a human being. Noticing a sudden change in Ariel's behavior, Triton questions Sebastian, who accidentally exposes that Ariel has come in contact with humans and fallen in love with prince Eric. The angry king confronts Ariel, uncovers her grotto, and destroys her beloved collection. After Triton leaves, two eels named Flotsam and Jetsam convince the devastated young princess to visit Ursula, the evil sea witch.

Ursula makes a deal with Ariel to transform her into a human for three days in exchange for Ariel's voice, which Ursula puts in a nautilus shell she keeps around her neck. Within these three days, Ariel must cause the prince to fall in love with her and give her the "kiss of true love". If Ariel gets Eric to kiss her, she will remain human permanently. If she fails, Ariel will become a miserable polyp and belong to Ursula. Ariel accepts and is then given human legs and taken to the surface by Flounder and Sebastian. Eric finds Ariel alone on the beach and takes her to his castle, but is still unaware that she is the one who saved him before due to her muteness. Ariel spends time with Eric, and at the end of the second day, they almost kiss but are thwarted by Flotsam and Jetsam. That night, to ensure Ariel's failure, Ursula disguises herself as a beautiful young woman named Vanessa and appears on the shore in front of Eric's castle, singing with Ariel's voice. Eric of course recognizes the song immediately, and the incognito Ursula casts an enchantment on Eric which causes him to forget Ariel.

The next morning, Ariel discovers that Eric will be married to Vanessa later in the day and is heartbroken. Scuttle then discovers Vanessa's true identity and informs Ariel, who immediately pursues the wedding barge upon receiving the news. Sebastian informs Triton what's happened, and Scuttle is sent to sabotage the wedding. In the chaos, the nautilus shell around Ursula's neck is destroyed, and Ariel's voice is returned, breaking the enchantment Ursula has placed over Eric. Realizing that Ariel is the girl who saved him from the shipwreck, Eric rushes to embrace her, but the sun sets and she transforms back into a mermaid. Ursula takes her true form as a terrifying sea witch and drags Ariel into the ocean with her. Triton confronts Ursula and demands that she release his daughter, but the deal is inviolable, even against the king. When Ursula offers to free Ariel in exchange for his trident, Triton agrees to take her place and is transformed into a polyp, losing his authority over Atlantica. Ariel is then released, and Ursula declares herself the new ruler. But before she can use the trident, Eric stops her with a harpoon. She tries to kill Eric, but when Ariel intervenes, Ursula inadvertently kills Flotsam and Jetsam; this enrages Ursula and she uses the trident to grow to a monstrous size.

Ariel and Eric reunite on the surface just before Ursula emerges from the water, towering over them. She then creates a vicious storm and pulls huge, sunken ships at the bottom of the ocean to the surface. Just as she is about to kill Ariel, Eric steers one of the wrecked ships towards Ursula and impales her with its splintered bowsprit, killing her once and for all. With Ursula finally dead, Triton and the other polyps in Ursula's garden revert to their original state. Realizing that Ariel truly loves Eric, Triton willingly changes her from a mermaid into a human permanently and approves their marriage. Ariel and Eric marry on a ship and depart.
