Come with us they coaxed sweetly. We know someone who can help you. Ariel followed slipperily eels. Before she knew it, she was inside the deep dark cave of Ursula the Sea Witch. Ursula knew how much Ariel missed Eric. She told the young mermaid that she could help her visit him for a price. I will  make you human so you can visit your young man. Ursula said, But you must get him to fall in love and kiss you before the sun sets on the third day. If you fail you will turn back into a mermaid and return to the sea as my slave. Then Ursula laughed wickedly. Oh and one thing. You must leave your voice with me. Poor Ariel She would have done anything to see the young prince again. So she signed the agreement Then the evil witch locked Ariel's beautiful voice inside a magic seashell that she was around her neck. Flounder and Sebastian watched in amazement as Ursula's magic powers changed Ariel into a human girl. Suddenly Ariel could no longer live into an underwater. Luckily her friends rushed her up to the surface so she could breathe. Ursula cackled with glee. She intended to make sure Ariel did not get her kiss.  Once Ariel was safe on the beach. Scuttle said, There's something different about you. Ariel I just can't put my foot on it. Ariel showed him her two legs She wanted to tell Scuttle about what had happened to her. But since Ursula had taken her voice. Sebastian had to explain. When Ariel tried to stand she found that balancing on her  new legs was harder than it looked. You can do it said, Scuttle Just watch me. Sebastian shook his head in disbelief How am I going to tell the king about this he wondered. Meanwhile Eric had not forgotten about the girl who had saved his life. Although he hadn't seen her he had seen her he had fallen in love with her wonderful voice. Eric would have given his entire kingdom to find her. Then as he was walking with Max he saw Ariel on the beach Have we met before Eric asked his heart skipping a beat But his hopes were soon dashed when he found that Ariel could not speak She can't be the one he thought.Still the prince felt sorry for as he brought her to his castle. His servants fed her and gave her pretty clothes to wear.
