Chapter 3: Prince Ali; A Whole New World

1st person P.O.V.

I'm in the throne room with father and Jafar, too angry to even look at him. "Jafar, this is an outrage! If it weren't for all your years of loyal service... From now on, you are to discuss sentencing of prisoners with me, before they are beheaded!"

"I assure you your highness, it won't happen again" father grabs my hand, "Jewel" he grabs Jafar's hand, "Jafar... Now let's put this whole messy business behind us... Please" he says the last part looking at me.

"My abject and humblest apologies to you as well, princess" he goes to kiss my hand but I jerk it away. "At least some good will come out of my being forced to marry... When I am queen I will have the power to get rid of you"

I turn away and storm off, "well now, that's nice, all settled then... Now Jewel, getting back to this suitor business... Jewel?" He sees me storming off "Jewel!"

I storm off to the fountain, Father following close behind me. "Jewel!" "I don't want to talk about this right now father!" "Listen to me, please" I turn around to face him, and listen to him lecture me about my suitor for the next fifteen minutes.

Meanwhile in the desert oasis....

Aladdin's P.O.V.

"Thank you for choosing magic carpet for all your travel needs, don't stand until the carpet has come to a complete stop" Genie says as we land in an oasis.

Carpet makes stairs for me and Abu to climb off on, "thank you, goodbye now, goodbye, thank you, goodbye!" Genie says as we climb off of Carpet. Genie crosses his arms and looks at us "Well, how bout that Mr.Doubting Mustafa?" "Oh, you sure showed me... Now, about me three wishes"

"Dust my ears deceive me? Three? You are down by one boy!" He puts a one in my face, I push it away and say "uh no, I never actually wished to get out of the cave. Ha, you did that on your own"

He looks like he's about to say something back when his mouth drops comically. "Well I feel sheepish" he turns into a sheep, "alright, you baaad boy, but no more freebies" "fair deal... So, three wishes... Hmm, I want them to be good... What would you wish for?" I ask as I turn to Genie.

"Me?" He floats off the tree he was hanging on, "no one's ever asked me that before... Well, in my case, ah, forget it" "what?" I ask now interested. "No, I can't-" "come on! Tell me!"

He takes a deep breath in before he says "Freedom." I look at the lamp, "you're a prisoner?" "Its all part n partial to the whole genie gig... PHENOMENAL COSMIC POWER!" he goes inside the lamp, I open the lid and see a tiny version of himself, "itty bitty living space" "aw Genie, that's terrible"

He slowly comes out of the lamp, "but, oh, to be free... Not have to go... *poof* what do you need? *poof* what do you need? *poof* what do you need? To be my own master... Such a thing would be greater than all the magic and all the treasures in all the world!"

He conks himself over the head, "but what am I talking about? Let's get real here, it's not gonna happen. Genie, wake up and smell the hummus" "why not?" I ask. "The only way I get outta this is if my master wishes me out, so! You can imagine how often that's happened"

I think for a second and shrug my shoulders, "I'll do it. I'll set you free!" "Uh-huh, Yeah, right" he turns into Pinocchio with his nose grown out, I push it back in and say "no, really, I promise. After I make my first two wishes, I'll use my third wish to set you free" I hold out my hand.

He hesitates before he says "well, there's hope... Alright" and shakes my hand, "let's make some magic! So how bout it? What is it you want?"

I blush a little, "well, there's this girl" I laugh nervously. Genie replies "eh! Wrong!" A heart appears on his chest with an 'X' over it, "I can't make anybody fall in love, remember?" He says poking the top of my head.

"Oh, but- but Genie, she's smart and fun and-" "Pretty?" "Beautiful!" I say leaning against a tree. I gesture to my eyes, "she's got these eyes that just- and this hair, wow, and her smile! *sigh*"

"Ra-me, say lamoe" Genie makes a smoke cloud that looks like a heart. "But, she's the princess. To even have a chance, I'd have to be- hey..." I suddenly come up with an idea. I point at Genie, "can you make me a prince?"

He gets out a pink book that says 'Royal Recipes' on the front and opens it. "Well, let's see here... Ckicken Al la King? Hm, nope... Now, let's see king crab... Ow! I hate it when they do that... Caesar Salad? Ah! A do protecto!... Aha! To make a prince"

He gets in my face, "now, is that an official wish? Say the magic words!" "Genie! I wish for you to make me a prince!" "Alright! First! That vest and fez combo is much too 3rd century" he looks at my pants, "these patches, what're we trying to say? Beggar? No! Let's work with me here"

I stretch my arms out as he measures me with measuring tape, he makes a bow tie on my chest from the measuring tape. I look down at the tie, then he pulls it down and I'm wearing expensive looking clothes.

"Oo! I like it! Muy macho, now! Still needs something-" I turn around and look at myself in the mirror, "-what does it say to me? It says... mode of transportation! 'scuse me, monkey boy *clap clap* monkey! Over here!"

I turn around and Genie says "here he comes and what better way to make your grand entrance on the streets of Agrabah than riding your very own Camal! Watch out they spit." He turned Abu into a camal.

I barely manage to hold back a laugh as Genie says "hmm... Not enough" he turns Abu into a funny looking horse, "still not enough... Oh, let's see, what do we need? What do we need?" He keeps snapping his fingers turning Abu into different animals before, "yes! He's a lalumba she me mumbo!" He floats closer to Abu and turns him into an elephant.

"Talk about your trunk space, check this action out!" Abu looks at himself in the pool and let's out a honk of surprise, before he climbs up a tree. The tree bends backwards and ends up in front of me.

I check out his trunk, "Abu, ha, you look good" "he's got the outfit, he's got the elephant... But we're not through yet!" He says as he rolls up his imaginary sleeves, "hold on to your turban kid, we're gonna make you a star!"

1st person P.O.V.

Meanwhile with Jewel....

I'm sitting at my vanity staring at my reflection as I slowly brush my hair. Ugh! It's all so frustrating! However Jasmine managed to find the right guy is an illusion to me.... Ravu doesn't even really seem like the type of guy Jasmine would go for... He's nice and all, he's just a bit... Goofy.

I mean, I like Ravu and all, but like I said he's a little bit goofy and wild. He kinda reminds me of a little kid. I've just finished putting my hair in it's usual style when I hear music coming from outside.

I stand up from my chair and walk out to the balcony to see something of a parade going on, I lean on the railing, my head resting in my hand. This ought to be good.

(Cue music)

Men:
'Make way!
For Prince Ali!
Say hey!
It's Prince Ali'

Genie:
'Hey! Clear the way
In the old bazaar
Hey you!
Let us through
It's a bright new star!'

'Oh come!
Be the first on your block to meet his eye!
Make way!
Here he comes!
Ring bells!
Bang the drums!
Are you gonna love this guy!'

'Prince Ali!
Fabulous he!
Ali Ababwa
Genuflect, show some respect
Down on one knee!'

'Now, try your best to stay calm
Brush up your sunday salaam
Then come and meet his spectacular coterie'

'Prince Ali!
Mighty is he!
Ali Ababwa
Strong as ten regular men, definitely!'

Genie as old man:
'He faced the galloping hordes!'

Genie as little boy:
'A hundred bad guys with swords!'

Genie as man:
'Who sent those goons to their lords?
Why, Prince Ali'

Men:
'He's got seventy-five golden camels'

Genie as news reporter:
'Don't they look lovely, June?'

Dancing girls:
'Purple peacocks, he's got fifty three'

Genie as female news reporter:
'Fabulous, Harry, I love the feathers'

Genie:
'When it comes to exotic type mammals
Has he got a zoo?
I'm telling you, it's a world class menagerie'

Genie as a lady:
'Prince Ali!
Handsome is he!'
(Ladies in the background: there's no question, this Ali's alluring)
'Ali Ababwa'
(Never ordinary, never boring)

'That physique!
How can I speak?'
(Everything about the man just plain impresses)
'Weak at the knee'

'Well, get on out in that square'
(He's a winner, he's a whiz, a wonder!)
'Adjust your veil and prepare'
(He's about to pull my heart asunder!)

'To gawk and grovel and stare!
At Prince Ali'
(And I absolutely love the way he dresses!)

'He's got ninety five white persian monkeys'

Guards:
'He's got the monkeys!
Let's see the monkeys!'

People:
'And to view them he charges no fee!'

Poor people:
'He's generous! So generous!'

People:
'He's got slaves, he's got servants and flunkies!
Proud to work for him!
They bow to his whim, love serving him, they're just lousy with loyalty to Ali!'

'Prince Ali!'

'Prince Ali!'

Genie:
'Amorous he! Ali Ababwa
Heard your princess was a sight lovely to see
And that, good people, is why
He got dolled up and dropped by'

People:
'With sixty elephants,
Llamas galore
With his bears and lions
A brass band and more'

'With his forty fakirs, his cooks, his bakers
His birds that warble on key!
Make way, for Prince Ali!'

As the final note of the music rings out I'm dashing down the stairs and to the throne room to see what's going on.
When I get in there I hear father say "Jewel will like this one"

The stranger grabs his shirt in an arrogant fashion, "and I'm pretty sure I'll like Princess Jewel" he says.

Jafar gets in between them, "your highness no, I must intercede on Jewel's behalf. This boy is no different from the others" since when is Jafar concerned about what I want?.... I'm starting to get mad. Are they actually talking about what I want?!

Jafar gets in the prince's face and says "what makes him think he is worthy of the princess?"

"Your majesty, I am Prince Ali Ababwa." He says as he jerks Jafars' goatee, "just let her meet me, I will win your daughter".

That's the last straw! "HOW DARE YOU!" They all jerk their heads to look at me, shocked, "all of you! Standing around deciding my future! I am not a prize to be won!" I turn and storm off.

"Why that- that... Jerk! He just parades in here, expecting to win me over with big things. Ugh!" I rant to Rajah. He just looks at me with concern.

I take a deep breath in, "I'm fine boy, I just... Need some time to think, to cool down" I walk out to my balcony and stare at the sky. Prince Ali... I've never heard of him, but, he looked familiar, but where have I seen him before?...

That night...

I'm now staring at the stars, I wonder what it's like up there? It all looks so peaceful... I rest my head on my hand, what am I gonna do?

I stand up straight and walk back inside to my bedroom.

3rd person P.O.V.

"What am I gonna do? Jewel won't even let me talk to her..." Aladdin says as he takes his turban off, "I should've known I couldn't pull of this stupid Prince wish" he says to himself as Abu struggles with a banana.

"So move." says Genie, he's playing a game of chess with Carpet. Carpet picks up one of his peices and hits Genies' king off the board. "That's a good move" says Genie, he turns into Rodney Dangerfield, "I can't believe it, I'm losing to a rug".

Aladdin sighs he's starting to get slightly annoyed and says "Genie, I need help!" Genie poofs up next to him as Jack Nicholson and puts an arm around his shoulder, "alright sparky, here's the deal, if you wanna court the little lady ya' gotta' be a straight shooter. Do ya' got it?"

"What?" asks Aladdin. Genie poofs up with a chalkboard and says "Tell. Her. The. TRUTH!" Aladdin waves his turban through the chalkboard, making it disappear. "No way! If Jewel found out I was really some crummy, street rat. *sigh* she'd laugh at me".

Genie turns into a lamp on Aladdin's head replacing his turban and says "a woman appreciates a man who can make her laugh!" Aladdin flicks the lamp off and Genie poofs up next to him holding his turban.

"Al, all joking aside. You really ought to be yourself". Aladdin jerks his turban from Genie's hands, "hey, that's the last thing I wanna be". He puts his turban back on.

"Okay, I'm gonna go see her. I just- I gotta be cool, smooth, confident." He flings his cape over his shoulders and  turns to Genie, "how do I look?" Genie sighs before he says sadly "like... A prince" and he watches as he flies on Carpet up to Jewels balcony.

Jewels P.O.V.

Five minutes earlier...

I'm laying on my bed with a frown, Rajah stares at me with concern. I reach over and start stroking his soft fur.

I hear a knock on my door, "who is it?" I ask. "Bala. We have a letter for you, Princess" I jolt up and walk over to the door.

I calmly open the door and Bala opens the letter, "thank you Bala" she smiles and bows before she walks down the hallway, heading once again, who knows where.

As I walk over to the bed I tear the top of the envelope, I sit down, open the letter and start reading.

Dear Jewel,
I got your letter, and it's a shame at what happened to that boy. But, I bet father chewed Jafar out about sentencing him without discussing it with him first, ha ha. You must feel really bad, about it too... You've always had a gentle heart. Things here are fine. Ravu and I are going to get married in a few months, there was something bad going on, and from what I've heard, one of Ravus' parents servants were plotting against him and they had to take care of it so we had to postpone the wedding. But, that's just gossip. Anyway, about your suitor... Do what I did when I chose mine... Follow your heart.
With Love,
Jasmine.

I neatly fold the letter and put it in my nightstand drawer. Follow my heart? But how do I do that? I've never even made any big decisions ever before... Oh well, I guess I'll be able to feel if it's the right decision.

I lay on my side on my bed, playing with the fabric a little as I do. That boy... I still can't get that smile of his out of my head...

"Princess Jewel?" I look through my curtain and see the outline of a man.
"Who's there?" I ask as I hear Rajah growl and stand.

"It's me Prince Al-" he clears his throat and says in a deeper voice, "uh, Prince Ali Ababwa"

Oh that guy. I walk over, open the curtain as I stick my head out, "I do not want to see you" I say going back into my room, could you leave please?

"Oh, no, please princess, please, just... Just give me a chance" he says as he tries to reach me but Rajah stops him, growling at him causing him to back up to the railing.

"Just leave me alone!" I say as I cross my arms and look away from him. "Down kitty" he takes off his turban, wait a minute... He does look familiar! I open my curtains and get a good look at him.

"W-wait, wait" I say, I walk out and Rajah stands at my side. I ask "do I... know you?"

He puts his turban back on, "uh, no, no" I put my hands on Rajah. "You remind me of someone I... met at the market place"

"the market place?" He asks. "Ah-heh, uh, I have servants who go to the market place for me" he leans on the railing and his feather falls down in his face. He blows at it and I exchange suspicious glances with Rajah.

"Why, I even have servants who go to the market place for my servants" he keeps swatting at a fly, "so, it couldn't have been me"

"no..." I sigh "I guess not..." I say as I lean my back against Rajah.

He clears his throat, "Princess Jewel, you're very..." He trails off, "punctual."

"'punctual?'" I question, confused.

"Uh, uh, beautiful." He corrects himself. I exchange looks with Rajah, and we share a mischievous smile.

"Hm, I'm rich too you know." I say, getting off of Rajah. "Yeah..." He looks at me in a trance.

"The daughter of a sultan"

"I know" he says.

"A fine prize for any prince to marry" I say, finally reaching him.

"Uh, r-right, a prince like me" he backs up a little as press to him. "That's right, a prince like you." I pull his turban by the feather down over his face and pull his cape over his head.

"And every other stuffed shirt, swaggering peacock I've met!" I say, angry as I walk back to my curtains. I look back at him "just go... Jump off a balcony!"

I just reach my curtains when I hear him say "yeah right!"

"What?!"

"Uh, uh, you're right" I raise an eyebrow, uhh... What? "*sigh* you aren't just some prize to be won," He leans places his hand on the railing and leans against it "you should be free to make your own choices".

I walk over to Rajah and look at him with confusion, he looks at Ali with suspicion. "I'll go now." He says as he jumps off the balcony, hold on just a second!

"No!" I say moving closer to the railing,

"what? What?" Ali asks as his head pops back up.

"How- how are you doing that?" I ask as I lean over the railing.

He's riding a carpet, he flies up to me saying "it's a magic carpet"

"i-it's lovely" I say with a light laugh as it kisses my hand.

"You, uh, you don't wanna go for a ride do you?" I look at him questioningly, "we could get out of the palace, see the world." He says.

I ask as I stroke carpet, "is it safe?"

"Sure, do you trust me?" That sounded familiar.

I look up at him, "what?"

"Do you trust me?" He asks again, holding out his hand.

I smile "Yes" I say as I grab his hand, he pulls me onto carpet.

Carpet takes off suddenly and I grab onto Ali so I won't fall, I look back at Rajah who just looks confused, I wave at him and we fly away. I gasp as we fly over the wall and into the town.

(Cue music)

Aladdin:
'I can show you the world,
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess now when did you last let your heart decide?'

We swoop into the town and Carpet picks a flower and hands it to Ali. He gives it to me, I sniff it before I stick it in my black hair.

'I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways, and under
On a magic carpet ride'

We fly into the clouds.

'A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming'

We fly past the moon and that's when I decide to join in.

Me:
'A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear, that now I'm in a whole new world with you'

Some clouds fall into our arms, Ali's flies out of his hands and I release mine back into the clouds.

(Aladdin: now I'm in a whole new world with you)

'Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky'

Carpet spins around and even puts us in a free fall, but he catches us.

Me:
'A whole new world'

We shoot down and I cover my eyes with my hands, Ali gently pulls them away.

(Aladdin: Don't you dare close your eyes.)

'A hundred thousand things to see'

(Hold your breath it's gets better)

'I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back
to where I used to be'

We fly by a worker sculpting the Sphinx's nose, we wave at him and he looks at us in shock and the nose drops to the ground. Ali and I cringe before we keep going.

Aladdin:
'a whole new world'

Me:
'every turn a surprise'

Aladdin:
'with new horizons to pursue'

Me:
'every moment red-letter'

We fly by some wild horses and I pet a foal. He jumps and neighs happily as we fly off.

Both:
'I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you'

We fly into a forest in Greece. Ali grabs an apple from a tree and rolls it off his arm to me, I catch it and smile.

Aladdin:
'A whole new world'

Me:
'A whole new world'

Aladdin:
'That's where we'll be'

Me:
'That's where we'll be'

We fly down close to the water and I put my hand into it. I take it out and we keep flying.

Aladdin:
'A thrilling chase'

Me:
'A wondrous place'

We look at our reflection in the water as we finish.

Both:
'For you and me'

I place my head on his shoulder and he places his on top of mine and we intertwine our hands.

Sometime later we end up in China. We're sitting on the roof of the imperial palace watching fireworks of all different colors go off.

"It's all so magical" I say in awe at the fireworks. "Yeah..." Says Ali, but he's not looking at the fireworks.

I look at him, playing with the apple in my hands. Time to see if I'm right. "It's a shame Abu had to miss this" "nah, he hates fireworks. He doesn't really like flying either."

It takes him a second to realise what he said and when he does he says "uh, that is, um, oh no" he rests his hand on is forehead before I take his turban off his head.

"You are the boy from the market, I knew it!" He tries to grab his turban but I put it out of his reach. I scowl and ask "why did you lie to me?" "Jewel! I'm- I'm sorry!" "Did you think I was stupid?" "No!"

I throw his turban into his lap, "that I wouldn't figure it out?" "No! I-I mean, I hoped you wouldn't... Um, no that's not what I meant!"

I look at him, "who are you? Tell me the truth!" "The truth?" I give him an angry look, "the truth... Um... Th-the truth is I sometimes dress as a commoner! To escape the pressures of palace life!" He puts his turban back on and the feather is once again hanging in his face.

He bats it away leaning closer to me, "but I really am a prince" the feather falls in his face again. "Why didn't you just tell me?" I ask, "well, you know, uh, um, royalty going out into the city in disguise, I mean, it sounds a little strange don't you think?" He says looking at me.

"Hm, not that strange" I say nudging him. Then I flick his feather playfully and lean on his shoulder.

3rd person P.O.V.

Hours later the two wind up back at the palace. Carpet flies them to Jewels' balcony and makes stairs for her to get off. Aladdin helps her up and she walks of off Carpet.

Carpet floats down just below the balcony, "Goodnight, my handsome prince" says Jewel lovingly.

"Sleep well, Princess" says Aladdin in the same manner. Carpet floats up slightly causing Jewel and Aladdins' lips to meet.

They both have wide eyes before they slowly lean into the kiss.

1st person P.O.V.

When we separate I walk back to my room, smiling. I put my hands on the curtains and look back at Ali to see him sigh. I smile at him before I walk inside my room, disappearing from his sight.

Aladdin's P.O.V.

I watch as Jewel walks back inside, "yes!" I say in happiness. I fall back onto Carpet. I feel all warm inside, I like it.

Carpet floats down slowly, I sigh and say "for the first time in my life, things are starting to go right." We land on the ground and a second after we do four pairs of hands grab me.

A gag is tied around my mouth muffling my words, "Abu! Abu!" I call out, only to see him hanging from a net on a tree. They chain my arms and legs. Carpet tries to free me but is taken by a gaurd and tied in a knot around a tree.

I start struggling when the end of a golden stick lands in my sight. I look up and see Jafar, "I'm afraid you've worn out your welcome, Prince Abooboo".

The guards sit me up and I start yelling in fury towards Jafar. He turns and walks away, "make sure he is never found" I feel something hit me over the head and I black out.

(A/N, ooo! Cliffhanger! But I bet if you've seen the movie then that isn't a cliffhanger. But it sure was a good place to end the chapter on! Anyway, I'll start the next chapter right after I upload this one. So, until then... PEACE OUT!!!!)
