When Ursula was nineteen years of age, she fell in love. Not with a commoner mermaid or a stupid fish, she fell deeply in love with a human. A human who happened to be a prince. This prince's name was Theron, Prince Theron. And he was the prince of a kingdom close to the sea.

And Ursula loved him even when she was unimpressed with some of the stuff he did at sea or with other people.When her parents took her out one day, to go for a swim, she turned around expecting to see them but instead all she saw was her sister sobbing on the ground.

Her parents had abandoned her. And that's the same day, she found true love. "I was seven years old when my best friend told me that the most colourful fish were also the most deadly ones. And I was sixteen years old, when I looked into my father's eyes and realised that she was right all along. But you? You're not deadly nor colourful. You're pleasant. And you're all I've ever wanted. To be loved." sighed Ursula one day when she was talking with the prince.

The prince replied back, "I have some sad news, Princess Ursula. In three days time, I shall be wed." This left Ursula stunned.

Wed? To who? "My seas.. Who are you getting married to?" Ursula said a little sad.

To which Prince Theron answered, "Her name is Hermia. She's from a nearby kingdom." And this left Ursula devastated. Before Theron could say any more, Ursula swam away back to a cave that she now called home.

This home wasn't just a home with a bed and a table to put food upon this was like a witches palace. Filled with cauldrons and multiple potions made from only the finest ingredients and it had water as its primary ingredient, Ursula and Meganna filled the world with magic offering strange deals in order for their wishes to come true.

Except for the night when Meganna wanted to go solo. "Fine then! Go solo! See if I care!" cried Ursula and Meganna swam away. But Ursula did care. She loved her sister but she was sad to see her go. And now she was all alone. So Ursula created potions still and made all her hair stick up so it floated easier.

Until one day.. about 20 years later.. when someone entered her lair. And it wasn't her sister. And it wasn't her parents.

A mermaid. A funny thing had swam into her cave. "Ursula.." she sighed, "I'm Ariel." And even just by her name, Ursula could tell who this bitch was. Not just the name. The fiery red hair. The blue eyes. The tan skin of her grandfather.

Princess Ariel, youngest daughter of goddamn Triton. She cackled, "Oh, Princess. You poor unfortunate soul."
