After the failed Romantic Night, All Skylanders including Sebastian gathered on the Ignitus to go over another plan because the third day is tomorrow. Eye Brawl asked,
"Any ideas for the third and final day?"
The Skylanders had no ideas for the third and final day. So they just had to hope that Ariel and Eric kiss before the sunsets tomorrow. Spyro said, "This meeting is adjourned, time to turn in for the night." Thumpback decided to go down to the balcony where Eric was, so he could talk to him.
When the Water Giant reached the balcony, he found Eric looking out to the sea, playing his flute in hopes that he would find his dream girl, the one with the beautiful voice. He noticed the Water Giant and said, "Hey Thumpback. I guess you were wondering what happened tonight?"
Thumpback spoke, "I heard that you two almost kissed."
The Prince replied, "We did...but I don't know what to do." He looked out to the sea, "Ever since I first heard that voice, I wondered if the girl I'm looking for is still out there."
"Eric, when it comes to to finding the right girl, the better question is 'Is she close by?' You saw how embarrassed Zap was when he showed up on a plate in front of Whirlwind. Those two have been together for months and remember when Bash told you about how he and Flashwing met?"
"I remember that...maybe the girl who saved me is out there and she could be close by." The whale spoke as the prince looked up at the window where Ariel was, "You have always search for the right girl and you once told Grim that it would hit you like lightning. But when you look up at that window and see Ariel, you see a lovely young woman."
"She may not be my dream girl, but she's beautiful." He looked at his flute and then back up to the window before saying, "Maybe I've been looking in the wrong direction. Ariel is a very special woman for some reason, I have a strange feeling like I've seen her before. Even more so that, my heart seems to be pointing to her...I need to do something about it."
Thumpback patted Eric on the back, "That's the spirit." He looked at the Ignitus, "I better turn in for the night. You should speak with Ariel before you turn in."
Eric replied, "I will."
As Thumpback left, Eric sighed about not finding the girl, but upon seeing Ariel's image in the window. He couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity with Ariel, like he's seen her before they first met. He thought about what Thumpback said to him saying that maybe he should go see her. So, he tossed his flute into the sea and was about to leave, probably going to talk to Ariel. Until he heard a sound coming from the shore, he saw a dark-haired woman wearing a dark blue dress and a glowing shell necklace. Eric instantly felt his free will slipping away and his eyes having a yellow reflection like he's being brainwashed.
The next morning, the Skylanders emerged from the Ignitus to see what events might transpire today. But they never guessed what transpired that day. Goofy was running down the stairs with Ariel and Donald since Scuttle had flew into her room just as the two were going to wake her and congratulated her because the Prince is going to marry her and the whole town was talking about it. We cut to them reaching the bottom of the stairs as the trio heard Grimsby's voice as well as Eric's voice. They poked their head out to see Prince Eric with a dark haired woman discussing the immediate wedding plans for today! Ariel was heartbroken since this wasn't what she imagined and ran down a nearby hallway, Donald was furious and wanted to run down there and give them a piece of his mind until Goofy stopped him,
"Donald, we can't just rush in there. We don't know what's going on right now and I have a bad feeling about that woman."
Donald sighed, "Fine, we need to tell the Skylanders about this." Soon enough, the dog and duck ran towards the docks as the woman briefly glanced at them as she silently chuckled while caressing a shell necklace.
As the duo reached the docks where the Ignitus was anchored.
"Another woman!?" asked the other Skylanders.
Goofy replied, "That's exactly what we saw, she was a dark haired woman, dark blue dress and a yellow shell necklace."
Zap noticed a little detail about this woman, "Why does the shell necklace sound familiar?"
Gill Grunt remembered, "When we met Ursula, she was wearing a shell necklace that sucked Ariel's voice inside!"
Wham-Shell looked out on the Ignitus' starboard side, "Guys, The Wedding Ship is departing! There's no doubt in my mind that the woman is on board." He looked at the Undead Giant, "Eye Brawl, Find Scuttle and see if this woman is Ursula."
Eye Brawl's eye detached, "On it."
Eye Brawl's flying eye flew off to find Scuttle while Gill Grunt, Wham-Shell and Zap found Ariel crying near the dock. The flying Eyeball found Scuttle just flying around and singing to himself, "Scuttle, I need your help for a little recon."
The Seagull asked, "You want us to spy on someone?"
Eye Brawl's eye replied, "We have suspicions that the woman that Eric is with is the Sea-Witch."
Scuttle said, "Well what are you waiting for?!" Scuttle and Eye Brawl's eye flew to the wedding ship as the pair heard a familiar voice coming from the ship. The Seagull recognized, "That's Ariel's voice."
They came across a window that peered into a dressing room as the woman was singing her evil plans of ruling the ocean using Ariel's stolen voice as she threw a dart at the head at the top of the mirror which made the seagull gulp. Eye Brawl's eye looked closer at the mirror as the woman stepped onto the vanity, not caring about things she was stepping on and pulled the mirror forward. In the mirror, it showed a frightening reflection of the woman's true form as Scuttle spoke, "The Sea-Witch!"
The Eyeball turned to Scuttle, "I'll warn the Skylanders, You find Ariel." The seagull nodded and flew off, not before bumping into the ship a few times while yelling Ariel's name.
Gill, Wham, Zap, Donald, Goofy and Sebastian were now in a slump along with Ariel. They now believed that they failed their mission to bring them together, it was both tragic and heartbreaking to be like this. The human-turned mermaid's tears dropped from her eyes and into the sea where Thumpback and Flounder were as they looked up at their heartbroken friend. The mood was changed when Scuttle arrived and started spouting and stammering as the group pointed out the words 'Sea-Witch' 'wedding' 'Prince' and 'Fake' until he grabbed Sebastian, "Can't you hear what I'm telling you!?" He started slamming the crab up and down the dock as he spoke, "The Prince is marrying the Sea-Witch in disguise!"
The crab, dazed from that sudden explanation asked, "Are you sure about dis?" Scuttle had explained that he an Eye-Brawl knew what they saw and it was confirmed. The others felt a sense of deja vu since they were in this same situation before and Gill Grunt was furious about all of this,
"I should've known this would happen." He slammed his fist on the dock, "It's Canterlot, all over again!"
Goofy asked, "Wait, this happened before?" Zap recalled, "A shape-shifting bug queen impersonated Princess Cadance and tried to marry Twilight's brother in disguise back home. This is exactly like it, except the bug queen had a swarm."
Wham-Shell said, "We got to stop that wedding."
Zap had an idea, "Scuttle, can you, Sonic Boom and the flying Skylanders stall the wedding long enough for us to get to the ship?"
The Seagull replied, "Sure I can, but I need to find Sonic Boom first."
Gill Grunt eased off his anger and said, "We already have that covered." He looked up, "Your Highnesses, we need Sonic Boom!!"
When Gill shouted, Sonic Boom appeared in a flash of light. "Whoa, what an entrance." said Scuttle.
Sonic Boom said, "You need to stall the wedding, my hatchlings will stall it."
Scuttle added, "Yeah, but I need to help out."
Gill Grunt looked up, "We need you to send out a message to all Skylanders with wings or flight capabilities! We need to stop that wedding!" Soon enough, a flock of flying Skylanders took off from the Ignitus while Scuttle let out a squawk that served as a call to action for every sea creature, water fowl, seals and sea-lions in the vicinity from the nearby lagoon to the ocean itself as the distraction team and the Skylands ship departed. They knew that it was heading for the Wedding Ship to stop that wedding. Wham-Shell mounted his mace as the weapon shifted to water mode, "Ok, mount up. We need to stop that Wedding and get these two back together before the sun sets."
Ariel looked out at the wedding ship and the sunset as she heard Ursula's words echo up in her head, "When the Sun sets on the Third Day..."
Now determined to stop the sea-witch's scheme, she jumped into the sea, but she couldn't swim in her human form, so Zap and Sebastian sent down a barrel to keep her afloat. Flounder, Gill Grunt, Wham-Shell and Thumpback pulled while Donald and Goofy were with Ariel. Zap was going to go with them until he had a better idea. He jumped into the water and swam away from them as Sebastian followed the dragon, "Where do you tink you're goin'?"
Zap smiled, "I'm going to do something that we should've done when Ursula decided to involve herself in this." Sebastian, now realizing what Zap was going to do, followed after the dragon.
Meanwhile with the others, the chase to stop the Wedding has begun, the distraction team was preparing to strike, Sonic Boom said, "Scuttle, you lead the first strike, aim for Ursula, keep her busy long enough for the others to get aboard."
Scuttle saluted, "Roger that and point me at the Sea-Witch." Sonic Boom let out a Sonic Scream which served as the signal for attack. It seemed like a perfect time to attack since the two were at the altar, Scuttle swooped in and attacked Ursula while in the process of saying their vows, Sonic-Boom's hatchlings followed soon after. The seals, sea-lions and starfish climbed aboard, shocking the guests as they attacked the bride, even Max the dog joined in for the party. Scuttle was clinging onto Ursula along with the starfish as the priest, oblivious to the chaos tried get back on track with the wedding while Eric was standing still like a drone. She ended up strangling the seagull after letting out an enraged "WHY YOU LITTLE!!"
The Sea-Lions were throwing the disguised sea-witch around like a ragdoll by bouncing her on their noses and sent her all over the place, causing the wedding guests to back away as she landed in the wedding cake. As she tried to get up, one of the griffin hatchlings attacked as she attempted to swat the baby griffin off, only for his beak to grasp Ursula's Shell necklace as he yanked it off, it went flying through air before shattering as it hit the deck, snapping Prince Eric out of his brainwashed state. The attack stopped as the people on deck heard Ariel's voice echo as a yellow orb moved to Ariel herself, who was on deck with Gill, Wham, Donald and Goofy when the necklace shattered. The orb moved down her throat and began letting out the same tune she sang before. Prince Eric, recognizing the voice asked,
"Ariel?"
She replied, "Eric." The Skylanders on the Ignitus and the ones in the air cheered to see them back together. The prince was surprised to see her speak since she got her voice back, realizing that it was her the whole time. Ursula tried to tell Eric to get away from her in her true voice, but to no avail. The Skylanders held their breaths that Ariel and Eric were about to kiss as Ursula yelled,
"ERIC, NO!" Their lips were so close to touching until the sun had disappeared from the horizon. At that moment, Ariel fell to the deck as her legs turned back into a green tail fin - she was a mermaid again! Spyro was frightened by this as he said,
"Oh no, We're too late!!"
A very joyful Ursula yelled, "You're right, Skylanders! YOU'RE TOO LATE!!" In a flash of light, she returned to her true form, shocking the wedding attendees. She weaved through the five, grabbed Ariel as she told Eric,
"So long, Lover Boy." She jumped into the sea as Eric shouted, "Ariel!"
After seeing that their friend is in danger, Gill, Wham, Donald and Goofy jumped ship as Thumpback submerged to go after Ursula with the dog and duck assuming their aquatic forms.
As Ursula dragged her captive down into the sea, she was discussing about it all until a demanding voice spoke,
"Ursula, STOP!" The Skylanders were surprised to see King Triton pointing his trident at the sea-witch, but we're even more surprised to see that not only was Sebastian there, but Zap was there with the king as well, revealing that he and Sebastian had warned Triton about Ursula. The sea-witch sarcastically said that it was nice to see him, although the sea king demanded that his daughter be released as the Skylanders surrounded her with weapons drawn. But the problem was that Ursula brought up the contract that Ariel signed as she apologized since she didn't know that this would happen. When Triton and the Team of Six attempted an all out attack to destroy the contract, the sea-witch hid behind it as the combined blasts from the weapons pushed her back with the contract showing no signs of damage, much to their shock.
Ursula had laughed as she stated that the contract can't be destroyed by the trident or any of the weapons from the six and because it was Ariel's contract and it was legal, she was going to be turned into a polyp like all of the other merpeople that Ursula had cheated. But as she showed the contract to the Skylanders, Donald noticed that the contract had six more names added to it. The Team of Six were shocked to see their own names on the contract right next to Ariel's name. Gill pointed his gun at Ursula, "Our names are on the contract! What are you trying to pull!?"
Ursula grinned as she circled around them with their weapons still trained on her, "Well Skylander, since you six encouraged her to go through with the deal. You have also put names into the contract as well. So now all six of you belong to me along with the daughter of King Triton."
The Sea-King shocked by this, asked, "Is that true?"
Gill sighed, "Yes, your majesty. It's all true."
The Sea-Witch grinned, "I love how the most battle-hardened gillman are the most honest ones. So according to the terms of the contract. All six of you are mine!" The shocked team attempted to attack her for cheating them until the power from the contract wrapped around them, relieving them of their weapons as they were anchored to the ground next to Ariel - putting Gill Grunt, Wham-Shell, Zap, Thumpback, Donald and Goofy in danger of turning into polyps as well.
On the surface, Eric was rowing his boat out to sea, determined to rescue Ariel as Grimsby yelled from the ship, "Eric, what are you doing?!"
The prince yelled, "Grim, I've lost her once, I'm not going to lose her again!" Although, Grimsby could've stopped him, he decided to let him go. The girl of his dreams, one that went through so much just to be with him, is held captive and Eric is determined to rescue her.
Back under the sea, Ursula was persuading Triton to exchange his daughter and the Skylanders for himself. The Sea-Witch was a persuasive and conniving woman. The slowly wilting seven could only watch while fully realizing Ursula's plan. She had used Ariel's desires to her advantage and intentionally wanted her to fail, even by taking matters into her own hands via shapeshifing. When Ariel turned back into a mermaid, she would wait for the king to arrive and save his daughter, only to be faced with the concept of Ariel's contract since she was in danger. The only way for him to save them is if he took their place on the contract and it was what Ursula wanted - to back Triton against the wall with the only thing keeping his daughter in danger was something that his trident can't destroy, Ursula had used Triton's love for his family against him as Ariel and the Team of Six were close to turning into polyps. As Ursula asked,
"Have we got a deal?" Triton sighed in defeat as he raised his trident and in a single shot - the previous names were removed and replaced with just Triton's name. After the contract was changed, Ariel and the Team of Six were restored while the magic from the contract consumed the Sea-King, turning the proud ruler of the merpeople into a polyp. As the team watched as Triton's polyp self gazed at them with defeat in his eyes, they were shocked to see him like this as Sebastian said in shock, "Your Majesty..."
Ariel was hurt to see her own father like this since this could've been her and her friends fate, "Daddy..." The Skylanders were sad to see him turn into a polyp, but it shown how devoted he was to his family and he would do anything for them, even if it meant sacrificing himself. Zap spoke, "You gave up your form to save us...did I make a mistake by warning you?"
The polyp shook his head as he gestured to his restored daughter as well as the rest of the team. "You knew that we can count on each other...I promise, we promise that we'll fix this." The polyp smiled briefly, knowing the nobility of the Skylanders. But the only one among the group who was happy to see Triton turned to a polyp,
"At last." Ursula said as she approached the polyp and donned Triton's crown, "It's mine!"
She had the crown and the trident in her possession, making her Queen of the Sea. Ariel, after seeing her father as a polyp and knowing full well that could've happened to her and her friends if he hadn't signed the contract, all seven glared at the witch,
"You Monster!!" Ariel and the Team of Six attacked Ursula with their bare hands, claws and fins while attempting to pry the trident from her hands, but her tentacles snatched them until the witch's arm was grazed by a harpoon. She gripped her arm and she glared at the culprit, holding Gill's harpoon gun was Prince Eric who swam down to help. Ariel and the team of six were still being held by Ursula as she shouted, "Eric, Look out!"
The Sea-Witch motioned to Flotsam and Jetsam, "After him!" The prince swam up for air, still holding the harpoon gun. The eels attacked him after he broke the surface as they attempted to drag him down only to be saved when Flounder and Sebastian sprang into action. The Sea-Witch decided to end Eric personally as she aimed the trident at the prince before saying,
"Say 'Good-Bye' to your sweetheart!" But before she fired, Zap got loose and pulled Ursula's hair, freeing the others while throwing the arm holding the trident off balance. The weapon fired and instead of killing Eric, the blast from the trident killed Flotsam and Jetsam as the two eels blew to pieces. The Sea-Witch shocked not just because Zap shocked her, but at the loss of her pets as she caressed the remains of her eels, "Babies! My poor little poopsies."
She directed her attention to Ariel, Eric and the Skylanders as they made a beeline for the surface. Those meddling Skylanders had struck a nerve when Flotsam and Jetsam died and she will get them all! Sebastian and Flounder could only watch in horror as Ursula used the trident's power to cast a spell that will make the Skylanders know how insignificant they really are.
As the group reached the surface, they thought that they could relax. Until Ursula rose from underneath as they were on top of her head. As she continued to rise, the eight heroes jumped back into the water as they saw what she had done to herself - she had grown giant. Thumpback even said, "Arkeyans were twice as large as she was, but this is ridiculous!"
Gill Grunt yelled, "Eat Harpoon, Witch!" He fired his Harpoon gun at Ursula, but it just simply bounced off her body as the sea witch continued to laugh,
"YOU POOR INSOLENT FOOLS!"
She began to use the trident's power to create a maelstrom which caused the waves to become rough, separating Ariel from Eric and the team as the giant sea-witch created a giant whirlpool which created a dry area in the middle of the sea. While trying to avoid the choppy waves, Gill realized why his shot bounced off, "Carp, her large mass protects her from small attacks!"
Goofy asked, "How are we going to stop her in that form?!
Zap looked at a shipwreck that rose up and the prow as Donald noticed, "You have a plan, Zap?" The dragon nodded as he pointed to the ship and said, "We'll have to ram her!"
Eric said, "The prow won't be able to punch through!"
Wham-Shell said, "That's what we are here for."
Gill shouted at Lotus, "Lotus, I need a couple of Lotus mines to begin construction!"
Lotus shouted from the Ignitus, "Lotus mines are on their way!" Gill caught a couple of Lotus mines as Thumpback grabbed the the heroes and the prince and placed them on his back. Due to the whale being a Giant, he was able to not only carry six people, but he can also handle the rough waves caused by the maelstrom, but they separated from Ariel in the process.
When they got aboard the ship, Eric asked, "What are you six going to do?"
Thumpback replied, "We are going to use our weapons to make a very sharp prow to stab Ursula." The Skylanders expression turned sad and Gill Grunt said, "We have to do what is necessary. We can't let Ursula cause terror in the seas. If we're going to stop her..." He shown them the detonator for the bombs, "Why not have her go out with a bang?"
Eric understood this and ran to the wheel while Gill Grunt took his Harpoon gun and built a massive harpoon with Lotus mines, Thumpback used his anchor and chain to mount it to the prow, Zap used his Electric vest to electrify the weapon, and Wham-Shell used his mace to shape the weapon. Goofy had added his shield as a covering for the weapon while Donald used his magic to amplify the weapons to give them an extra piercing power. Now with the weapon complete, they mounted the weapon to the prow of the ship and was now on a head-on collision with Ursula. The Ship's seven-man crew stood strong as they approached the massive Sea-Witch. Gill Grunt held the detonator that could detonate the mines.
While the crew were getting ready, Ursula had her sights on Ariel as the mermaid tried to avoid the her, the witch had used the trident to destroy a rock that she was on which made the mermaid fall into the dry area that the sea witch had created using the trident, the mermaid was in her line of sight as she fired a few shots at Ariel. Although her mobility was limited due to being on land, even if it was once water, she couldn't keep up forever. When she couldn't move anymore, Ursula stated as she raised the trident, preparing to strike her down,
"So much for TRUE LOVE!!" Ariel feared that it was over for her, for her friends, her family and the sea as a whole until Donald shouted,
"Hey, Sea-Witch! Dodge This!" Ursula soon looked in shock to see the shipwreck closing in on her, they caught Ursula completely off guard as the wreck's modified prow pierced her large mass, they jumped ship as Gill set off the mines as several explosions went off, combined with the trident's power backfiring on Ursula. As the Sea-Witch went down with the ship, Prince Eric washed up on shore while the three Skylanders and Donald and Goofy washed up on a rock while Thumpback had crawled into the shallow water and due to exhaustion from the fight; they all collapsed.
But beneath the ocean, Gill's Harpoon gun, Wham-Shell's mace, Zap's Electric vest, Thumpback's Anchor, Goofy's Shield and King Triton's trident were in one piece descending to the bottom. As the weapons descended to the sea-floor, all the polyps transformed back to Merpeople as they left Ursula's hut and as the weapons hit the bottom near the polyp form of King Triton, the Proud Ruler of the Merpeople was restored holding his trident and the Skylanders' weapons.
The next morning, Sebastian, King Triton and Master Eon were on the surface watching Ariel gaze at Prince Eric who was lying on the beach and the Skylanders sitting on a rock exhausted knowing that they won, but at a great cost. Sebastian said,
"You know, your Majesty. The Skylanders have proven themselves very helpful to Ariel and her cause."
The Sea-King agreed, "I agree Sebastian."
Master Eon sighed, "That prince has shown great dedication to her, Triton. He went out of his way to rescue both her and the Skylanders."
Triton stated, "You took the words right out of my mouth, Eon. I can see now why she loves him, if not for him or the Skylanders, the sea would have fallen into desolation and evil."
"No doubt of that outcome if not for them. As for your daughter, there comes a point where children need to be free to choose their own paths."
"Do you...have any children?"
"I have a son, a bright young man with the skills and powers for any case and gave Kaos a run for his money when he was a boy. When he reached your daughter's age, I knew that it was time for him to choose his own path, so I allowed him to continue his studies on portals."
"Where's your son now, Eon?"
"He unlocked a portal to another world where I believe he settled down there. The point behind it is that he chose his path from his heart, just as Ariel was doing as well - following her heart to her own path."
"That is an interesting point."
"Sebastian says that all the time when it comes to this."
The Sea-King looked at the crab, "You said it?"
The crab sighed, "Yes, your Majesty. I always do."
As the king thought about the choices that he made. Which he made after his wife died because of a pirate attack, but seeing his youngest daughter in love with a human who also saved him and the sea from the horror that Ursula nearly unleashed, he took the new advice from his advisor and his spirit friend and stated,
"Well, I guess that leaves one more problem."
Sebastian asked, "And what is that, your Majesty?"
King Triton sadly replied, "How much I'm gonna miss her."
The Sea-King, now understanding his daughter's desire used his trident on Ariel. When the trident's power hit her, she looked at her glowing tail with shock and smiled at her father as he, Sebastian and Eon smiled back. The Skylanders had also got their weapons back, courtesy of King Triton as they noticed that Eon was with the merman as well. The Team of Six turned towards the shore and saw Ariel walk out of the water wearing a sparkling light-blue dress on permanent human legs as Eric woke up and saw her as the two were reunited.
Both land and sea gathered for the marriage of King Eric and Queen Ariel. The Team of Six, now christened as 'Champions of Atlantica' by King Triton, were also in attendance including the Skylanders on the Ignitus. Gill Grunt pulled a few strings for a few old friends to attend as he shouted,
"GILLMAN MARINES! PRESENT ARMS!!" Gill and a squad of Gillman Marines pointed their guns in the air and fired simultaneously. To Gill Grunt, seeing his old colleagues from the corp, made him remember what the Marine Corps was supposed to be - the sword and shield of his home, just like the Skylanders. Wham-Shell wore his ceremonial breastplate made of the molted shells of former crustacean kings with his mace attached to his back, he figured that since it was a special occasion, the Shell of Kings would be perfect for him. As Ariel greeted her friends who were congratulating her, like Scuttle, who was carrying Flounder so he could be level with his friend while waving goodbye and wishing her good luck.
Meanwhile Zap sat on top of the Wedding cake holding the statues of Ariel and Eric with a smile on his face until Chef Louie spotted him. The Chef wielded a large knife and a devious smile as he attempted to kill the Dragon but Zap fled in time before the knife cut the cake. Louie chased Zap all over the aisle until he came across a sail support, he looked at Louie who was charging like a raging bull in a bull fight or an angry Minotaur ready to pound his victim into the ground. Zap smiled in a 'come at me, bro' sort of way as he bit the rope shocking it in the process. The support fell and hit Louie square in the face causing him to lose half of his teeth and twitching as the effects of the electricity settled in before collapsing. Zap jumped on to a rope as he swung from the Wedding Ship and landed on the Ignitus and cheered, "Yes, thank you, thank you."
As the last of the Skylanders began to board the Ignitus, Gill Grunt, Wham-Shell, Donald and Goofy saw King Triton manipulate the water, so he rise up to the ship's level and hug his now-human daughter. Although they were on the boarding plank for the Ignitus, they could hear Ariel say, "I love you, Daddy."
The Skylanders knew that things are going to be different, but no matter what happens - It's a happily ever after now. After boarding the Ignitus, the Skylanders were waving 'good-bye' to their friends and the newlyweds as they knew that it was time to go home. As humans and merpeople waved at both ships, a flash of light appeared around the Ignitus as they knew what was going to happen and when the light faded - the Ignitus was gone.
A day after the Skylanders returned to Equestria, Master Eon was at the Portal of Power with Celestia and Luna as they studied the crystal that gave them access to various worlds where Donald and Goofy came from, starting with Atlantica. The spirit sighed,
"Much has happened, I know. The Battle for the Seas would have been terrible and the Sea-Witch would have taken complete control over the seas, had neither the prince or the Skylanders intervened."
The Sun Goddess pointed out, "Our way to their world is now open because of this crystal and thanks to the Sea-King, we know where it came from."
The Moon Goddess finished, "It came from their world and was lost for centuries until Gill Grunt found it at the bottom of Leviathan Bay."
Eon nodded as he remembered the story of the crystal, 'Poseidon's Trident' from King Triton,
"Long ago, the Merpeople of the seas would wander out and look for interesting items or anything needed to survive. One of these gatherers was a mere merman with a desire for adventure, it was during his gathering when he stopped and spotted a young human woman being attacked by sharks. He knew that she wouldn't last long underwater with those sharks. He saved her and brought her to the surface and onto shore. This act of kindness brought the attention of both humans and merpeople as the gatherer realized that she was an advisor to the local leader of the town. He saw that the gatherer went beyond to ensure that she returned safely. It was a friendship that defined both our people in ways we didn't realize. The gatherer, curious about his actions, traveled to the temple of the Sea God, Poseidon and spoke with him about his actions. Poseidon answered him stating that the woman is not supposed to be taken by the sea and the gatherer's actions were justified. He faced down those sharks with strength, courage and compassion to save the woman for they were the virtues of a hero - a hero worthy of the gift of a god.
It is said that Poseidon had taken a piece of his own trident and bound it to a crystal, the blessing of the Sea God, symbol of friendship between the two worlds - Poseidon's Trident was born.
The gatherer was soon became known as the hero and news of Poseidon's gift spread to both land and sea. But not all was well when the Octopids attempted to invade our people, if not for the hero and the alliance between land and sea - Atlantica would have been overrun. It wasn't until he began to experiment with Poseidon's Trident and discovered its uses as a key to different worlds as well as the ability to shapeshift into a human, allowing him to visit the home of the woman he saved, Jennifer. According to the legend, he was interested to testing the crystal's ability as a key to a gateway. He would talk about it with the humans whenever he was ashore. Jennifer had agreed that it was a curious crystal that the god of the sea gave him and many things came with it. However, he knew the dangers of testing Poseidon's Trident and decided to not go through with it.
But he discovered that the crystal can turn humans into merpeople, so he brought Jennifer to the sea as the crystal turned her into a mermaid as they swam around the sea. As their relationship grew, the stories of the crystal have brought the attention of more undesirable merpeople. While some had wanted it for good, others wanted it for evil - a war nearly erupted for possession of the crystal and the hero's childhood friend, Fergus was jealous of his position and betrayed him. He let the octopids into Atlantica as well as the undesirables in order to claim the crystal. He had already faced human pirates that were out to claim it. But as an act of desperation, he attempted his gateway experiment, he used Poseidon's Trident to open the portal and he threw the crystal into the portal before closing it.
After he and the Atlantica guard subdued the rioters and drove the octopids out, the hero realized that all contact with the surface must be cut off. The Alliance between land and sea was dissolved and the hero lived out his years with Jennifer who decided to remain a mermaid in order to be with him. As for Poseidon's Trident, the crystal had remained lost and no one knew where it was now, the potential of its use for good and evil was a risk and the choice of sending the crystal itself through the gateway was a wise one. As I have said, Poseidon's Trident was lost, only to be heard in song and stories...until your Skylanders found it in your world."
Eon finished as the spirit finished the tale of the crystal that had attached itself to the portal of power. Celestia looked at the crystal, "This crystal was the gift from a god and this served as the key between our world the various worlds where Donald and Goofy come from."
Luna figured, "This crystal was an unexpected discovery and since it has bonded with the portal, it's a bizarre combination of Skylands technology and an ancient divine power."
Eon figured, ."In this adventure in this new world, we were able to stop that Sea-Witch from usurping Triton's throne and causing chaos throughout the seas. But we also were able to bring two hearts of different two worlds of land and sea together as their love blossomed in their union."
Celestia agreed, "I agree with what we did, but the real MVPs are the 'Champions of Atlantica' they were there on the front, helping out a friend fully realize her dream to not only be on land, but to be with her true love."
Luna figured, "I believe what we have witnessed is a Friendship Report from the Skylanders."
Meanwhile at the park in Ponyville, the CMC discovered Gill Grunt and Chop Chop writing something. Applebloom asked, "What are y'all writing?"
Gill said, "Chop Chop and I are writing a book."
Sweetie Belle asked, "What is it about?"
Chop Chop let Sweetie Belle sit on his lap, "It's called, 'The Little Mermaid' it tells the story of a mermaid that dreams of life on the land and soon gets her wish. She soon meets a Prince and they instantly fall in love. That's only half of the story, the rest will come when we finish it."
Scootaloo asked, "When its finished, can you read it to our class at Ponyville Elementary?" Gill Grunt patted the Pegasus filly and said, "It will be a great pleasure to share our adventure." As the CMC left, Gill Grunt began telling Chop Chop his adventure as the undead knight wrote it in the book including Zap's two battles with Chef Louie. It wasn't until Gill's Portaltrix beeped with Goofy's voice speaking,
"Gill Grunt, Donald and I have something to tell ya."
