Sora and friends paid a visit to Atlantica, the kingdom under the sea, and got to see Ariel again.

Everyone was gearing up fo a big musical, but Ariel just couldn't stay focused on rehearsals. Sebastian asked Sora, Donald, and Goofy to perform, but even then Ariel's mind seemed to be somewhere else.

It turned out she was curious about the human world. Flounder suggested showing he a statue he found, thinking it would cheer her up, since Ariel loves things from the surface.

Ariel was spellbound by Flounder's gift. It turned out to be a statue of the man she'd had her eyes on.

Ariel was in love with a human prince.

But he lived in the human world, and Ariel would have to become a human to be with him. Ursula convinced her to trade her voice for a chance to do so.

Ariel and Eric had a lovely time together... but Ursula had other plans. Sora sopped her from using Ariel's voice to steal Eric away, but King Triton was transformed when trying to stand up for his daughter. Thankfully, Eric came to the rescue! He joined forces with Sora and his friends, and they defeated the Sea witch.

Eric learned that Ariel is a mermaid, but that didn't change his feelings for her. They were meant to be together. Sebastian's musical was a big hit, with Sora, Donald, and Goofy playing major roles. Thus land and sea came together as one.
