I promise that once we skip all of the unimportant stuff (unimportant for this fic) my writing will be more descriptive and longer. I just need to get to the point where my OC comes in. Thanks!

Momo poked Aladdin, but he didn't stir. Due to the lack of reaction, he turned to a different method of waking him. Momo brushed his bushy, black and white tail against Aladdin's nose. With a giggle, Aladdin sat upright. He looked around himself and studied his surroundings.

"Momo, where are we? The last thing I remember is leaving the Dungeon with Alibaba and Morgiana..."

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

A person clad in black cloth was riding atop a saber-toothed white leopard tiger that was taller than any man. Its fur was white and relatively long with black spots. It had ocean blue eyes and a stub of a tail. Its greatest weapons were its dagger-like, black claws and twin, foot-long fangs. Adorned on its back was a sleek black saddle that strapped under its belly and attached to reigns that clasped around its muzzle. The person sat on its back with their feet in its stirrups. Though their face and head was covered with the same type of black cloth that their clothing was crafted out of, you could still see their icy blue eyes.

The blue-eyed rider stopped the steady pace of the beast with a small tug on its reins. The wanderer looked to the distance as if something had caught their eye in the barren desert.

But there was nothing for miles...

Aladdin waved his goodbyes to the Kouga Clan as the caravan set off towards Balbadd. Momo, the winged lemur, sat upon his shoulder staring blankly into the distance...

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Three thieves were wandering the road, complaining about how they would get money when they saw a rich man, adorned with jewels and gold, sleeping under the shade of a tree.

"Look at our luck brother!"

They swiftly and skillfully stripped him of everything he had, being careful not to wake him. The largest of the three was digging around the pockets of the white clothing the man had worn to see if there was any money hidden in them. He didn't find any money, but instead, a silver locket with an intricate design engraved in it.

"Brother, what should we do with this?" He held up the trinket for his brother to see.

His brother squinted unattractively, studying the locket. "It isn't completely made of silver, so we can't pawn it. It's worthless, throw it out."

"Okay."

The large man threw the trinket over his shoulder and into the bushes. The men took what they stole and bustled their way toward Balbadd...

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Aladdin and Morgiana had found each other after Morg freed everyone from the slave trader who had taken shelter in the Thieves Fortress and were now almost to Balbadd. Suddenly, a stark naked man with long purple hair and only a leaf to cover his 'goods' stood in their way.

"Hello, my name is Sin." He smiled.

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

"Thanks for letting me borrow your clothes, Aladdin." Sin thanked as they sat around a wooden fire.

They chatted and didn't notice a certain lemur slip away...

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Morgiana stuck up her nose. "I smell the sea." She stated.

"It's right over that hill." Sinbad informed.

Morg and Aladdin exchanged looks of excitement and ran to the top of the hill. Sinbad chuckled as he stood to follow them, but something stopped him.

Hearing a chirp, Sinbad moved his eyes to the source.

Sitting in Aladdin's now empty seat was the lemur, Momo, with something clasped in his paws. Swiftly, Momo extended his wings and made a few flaps until he was comfortably placed on Sinbad's broad shoulder. Sinbad gave him a curious look and the lemur stared back blankly. Momo slowly held up the locket by its chain, never breaking eye contact, and gently dropped it in the man's large hand.

"Thank you." Sinbad told Momo sincerely.

Momo stared back blankly.

Sinbad stowed away the precious locket in a space in his lent clothing and, with Momo seated on his shoulder, climbed the hill to catch up with Morgiana and Aladdin...

I have know idea where Sinbad found room in Aladdin's clothing to put the locket, so I'm going to leave that to your imagination x)

Things are starting to make progress! Yay! There will definitely be more writing in Balbadd and I will also being introducing my OC! *Does strange interpretative dance* Some of if will be short pieces like this though because the Balbadd arc was pretty long.

Now to explain my next creature from another imaginative world! A saber-toothed white leopard tiger. Whew, a real mouthful. Basically, a saber-toothed tiger with a more distinct flare. I wanted a creature that would be accompanying my OC (#spolier, but I don't really care) because humans are social creatures and she needed to be bound to something. Why I picked a saber-toothed tiger was not only because they're cool and prehistoric so I can be as creative as I want with it, but because felines (wild ones) are known to be powerful and courageous and I thought that it would be pretty good symbolizism for my OC. Lastly, I chose white leopard design because it's pretty and will also make my OC and her companion more compatible.
