A\N : So the Prologue of this book will be based off Aladdin Live! I don't own Aladdin! All rights go to Disney! I own the OCS in this part!

The Camera Zooms Onto A Ship

"Hey look over there!" Two children run to the side of a small boat to look a majestic ship. "Their ship is so big!" The girl, named Ember, exclaimed. "I wish ours was that fancy." The boy, named Cove, remarked. The two trollings smiled at each other as they gazed at the ship before them. "I'd be so happy if ours was that fancy." Ember said longingly. Her younger brother nodded, smiling excitedly and they continued gazing. "Cause then..." Ember was about to continue before her father interrupted.

"Why is that?" Their father, Ocean, asked as he pulled a rope out of the water. "Because it looks better?" He asked another question. He tied the rope to the sail rope and continued. "This boat has lasted through many storms." He started tying more ropes together. "It may not look like much, but it has one thing theirs never will."

Cove, clearly confused, turned to his father. "Like what? Wood rot and rats?"

Their Mom, Esmerald, was hanging the laundry to dry out before calling to her husband. "Are Ember and Cove learning anything?"

"Not entirely sure." Ocean laughed lightly before letting go of the ropes. "But their about to." He looked at his children's curious, confused faces and pointed to a blanket on their small ship. "Alright, you two. Have a seat here." Ember and Cove obeyed and Ocean sat across from them. "I think it's time I told you the story..." He paused while he waited for Ember and Cove to get comfortable. Once they were he continued. "Of Branch, The Princess, and The Lamp."

Ember looked confused. "What's so special about a lamp?" Ocean smiled. "Oh, but this is a magic lamp." Esmerald stopped doing the laundry and sat down. "Okay the laundry can wait. I don't care if Ive lived this, I'm listening in." She made herself comfortable between her two children. Cove's eyes went wide with another question. "Is this why Mama has magic?" Esmerald laughed and nodded. "Yep!" Their daughter made a suggestion to Ocean. "Maybe if you sing?"

Cove nodded eagerly. "Yeah it's better when you sing." Ocean was hesitant. "No, no. No singing. It's been a long day." The children pleaded. "Please? Pretty please?" Esmerald had to beg too, for she loved her husband's singing. Ocean gave in. "Alright, alright I'll sing." He climbed the ship's ladder and began with a look of wonder in his eyes.

🎶Oh imagine a land in a faraway place🎶

🎶Where the caravan camels roam🎶

He climbed of the ladder and grabbed onto a rope then continued.

🎶Where you wonder upon every culture and tongue🎶

🎶It's chaotic, but hey it's home🎶

He sat with his family and made motions with his hands, much to their delight.

🎶Where the winds from the East, and the sun's from the West🎶

🎶And the sands from the glass is right🎶

His eyes grew even wider with wonder as he stood back up.

🎶Come on down, stop on by, hop on a carpet and fly🎶

He made a flying motion with his hands and looked out in the distance of their small ship.

🎶To another Arabian Night🎶

The Camera Zooms Over The Ocean And Begins Zooming Through Pop Village

A monkey climbs on barrels of food through the village.

🎶As you wind through the streets,🎶

The monkey climbs on a cart and upsets a male troll.

🎶And the fabled bazaars🎶

🎶With the cardaomom cluster of stalls🎶

The monkey climbs off some bags and onto a wire handing off a line.

🎶You can smell every spice, while you haggle the price🎶

Two trolls start arguing with each other.

🎶Of the silks and satin shawls🎶

The monkey moves out of the way of a small fire and leaps on a teal troll and rests on his shoulder as he walks through the village.

🎶Oh the music that plays as you move through a maze🎶

The teal troll secretly puts small trinkets in his pockets as the monkey hops off his shoulder and onto some clothes.

🎶In the haze of your pure delight🎶

The monkey hops off the clothes and roams through the village.

🎶You are caught in a dance🎶

🎶You are lost in the trance🎶

A group of trolls light glowing lamps and send them in the air.

🎶Of another Arabian Night🎶

🎶Arabian Nights🎶

The Camera Zooms Through The Royal Palace

🎶Like Arabian Days🎶

🎶More often than not, are hotter than hot🎶

King Peppy talks to one of his guards, surrounded by gold riches.

🎶In a lot of good ways🎶

King Peppy tosses a piece of food to the Royal Fox, Gigi. The fox eats the food in one chomp.

🎶Arabian Nights🎶

Gigi runs to his owner, the princess, as she gets a special treatment, from her royal helper, Ocean. The princess greats her fox with a head scratch as Ocean walks away.

🎶Like Arabian dreams🎶

🎶This mystical land of magic and sand🎶

Gigi spots Phoenix, a parrot and tries to slap at him, but he flys away.

🎶Is more than what it seems🎶

The Camera Zooms Out And Follows Iago As He Flies High In The Sky

🎶There's a road that may lead you, to good or to greed🎶

Phoenix continues to fly higher through the skies and desert.

🎶Through the power your wishing commands🎶

Phoenix finally flies closer to the ground through the desert.

🎶Let darkness unfold or fortune untold🎶

Phoenix flies through a sand arch.

🎶Well, your destiny lies in your hands🎶

Phoenix arrives to the lion cave as it speaks. "Only one may enter here. One whose worth lies far within. The diamond in the rough." Iago lands on his master's, a sorcerer named Creek's, shoulder.

🎶 Arabian Nights🎶

A troll carefully creeps to the lion's cave with a lamp trying to find someone.

🎶Like Arabian Days🎶

The troll walks into the cave looking with Creek smirking evilly.

🎶They seem to excite, take off and take flight🎶

Another troll tried to exit the cave, but the sand caved on top of him.

🎶To shock and amaze🎶

The lion cave merged with the sand and became nothing, but sand. "Seek thee out. The diamond in the rough." Creek stood proudly with his snake scepter and parrot.

🎶 Arabian Nights🎶

Creek turns away from the cave, clearly annoyed.

🎶Neath Arabian Moons🎶

A bird flies in the distance.

🎶A fool off his guard, could fall and fall hard🎶

The Camera Zooms Into The Desert Skies

🎶Out there in the dunes🎶

Creek turns around when Iago alerts him to the presence of another troll, named Gazeem. The zen troll scowled at Gazeem. "You...are late."

"A thousand pardons, O patient one." Gazeem apologized. Creek raised his eyebrow. "You have it then?" Gazeem held out half of a medallion. Creek tried to reach and grab it, but the troll held it away. "Nope! Not until you give me the treasure!" Iago flew and grabbed the other half of the medallion from Gazeem. "Hey watch it!" He shouted at the bird.

Creek rolled his eyes with a smirk. "Oh trust me, my friend. You'll get what's coming to you."

"What's coming to you! Awk!" Phoenix squawked. Creek pull out the second half of the medallion and combines the pieces together. The medallion glowed brighter than the moon shining over them and formed a trail. Creek started walking with Gazeem close behind. Creek smirked when he saw the cave. "At last. Hard work does pay off!" He turned to Gazeem. "Now remember - bring me the lamp. The rest of the treasure is yours."

Gazeem nodded and descended into the cave, but is blown away by the roar the cave made as it spoke. "Who dares to disturb my slumber??" Gazeem gulped before answering. "It is I, Gazeem, a humble thief." The cave proceeded to warn the thief. "Know that only troll may enter here. One whose worth lies far within. A diamond in the rough. Gazeem starts to hesitate and turns to Creek with a terrified look. "What are you waiting on?! Go!" The sorcerer commands.

Gazeem slowly steps one foot inside the cave. When nothing happens he gains the confidence to step again. He hears another roar from the inside of the cave and tries to run out, but the lion's mouth slammed shut and the cave returned to a normal dune, speaking the final words of, "Seek thee out, the diamond in the rough."

Phoenix was about to lose it as he shouted normally. "This is ridiculous! I just can't believe it! Let's just face the facts - we are never gonna get our hands on that stupid lamp! I mean look at me!" He flew up to Creek and showed how his feathers were falling off. "I'm so frustrated with this that I'm molting!"

Creek smirked. "Patience, my feathered friend. That guy was obviously less than worthy. The cave is letting us have a big surprise." Phoenix pretended to be excited. "Oh there's a surprise?! No way! Well that changes everything! I mean that's incre - I think I'm gonna have my first heart attack and die from a not surprise! Honestly what the troll are we gonna do?? We got a big problem here! A huge prob-"

Creek tightened his hand around the parrot's beak to shut him up. "Yes we do. Only one may enter. I must find this...diamond in the rough." The two gazed where the lion's cave once was.

A\N : Word Count : 1,677! Sorry this is a little short for a prologue, but I tried my best on it, so I still hope you at least laughed from watching Iago lose his bird brain. XD
