2. Expect the Unexpected, a phrase I have heard before but never experienced until now…

3. Tiana: Mother! The aurora is back!
Ella: Again? I thought they gave up on us.

4. Tiana: WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH US?!
Expect the unexpected indeed…

5. Tiana: Uh, oh…maybe they heard me?

6. Tiana: I TAKE IT BACK!! I DON’T WANT TO KNOW ANYMORE!!
This happens far too often in a challenge that isn’t supposed to be about aliens…

7. Tiana: I left my stomach up there, do you know how cruel that is to do to
someone who wants to be a Five Star Chef? I hate you all.
Alien (name forgotten): We will be back human female.

8. The literal next day…
Fricorith: You JUST took the heiress yesterday night and now you’re back?!
What do you want?!

9. Fricorith: At least this time I’m going instead of Tiana, maybe they’ll tell me what they
want.
Yeah, WAY too often for a Disney Princess challenge, it’s like they saw that and decided to send
Stitch’s people to come get my family.

10. Fricorith: That didn’t help any, how many of you are there in this sector? Do you not have
some kind of inter-ship communications?
Alien: We just wanted to probe a fairy.
Fricorith: Great, I’m SO glad to sate your curiosity…

11. Prince Corinth: Lady Tiana, I am not familiar with this form of dance.
Tiana: Neither am I, just blame Cori. He’s a fairy and they love to dance, it’s
kind of contagious to be honest.

12. Fricorith: Dancing is fun and I heard you.
Tiana: I know you did, that was the point.
Prince Corinth: You do have a point about it being contagious Lady Tiana.

13. Fricorith: It’s also a full moon out, it’s energizing for fairies.
Tiana: Interesting, why is that?
Fricorith: I am not sure…

14. Tiana: So why did you come to us? Father never told me.
Prince Corinth: It is a long story Lady Tiana, and one day I will tell you. I felt drawn to
this place, and to your pet frog.
Tiana: Oh now I’m even more curious, what’s wrong with Naveen?

15. Prince Corinth: That frog…feels familiar. I cannot explain why.
Tiana: How? I mean Cori fished it up in France when he was there, it’s just a regular frog.
Fricorith: * I still haven’t told her…*

16. Prince Nimetz: Prince Corinth, I would like to see your knight out front after I
deal with something first. I have heard some rumours that are…troubling.
Prince Corinth: Oh? Well I will send Laurent to see you immediately then.

17. Fricorith: Is it something I need to know about as well?
Prince Nimetz: Perhaps Cori, but I would like to speak to Sir Laurent alone first.
Fricorith: As you wish.

18. Prince Nimetz: *I just hope I will have the strength… *
Fricorith: *Another one…Emma said I should get used to this, but I just can’t, not yet
anyway… *

19. Laurent: You wished to speak to me Prince Nimetz?
Prince Nimetz: I did. I have heard some disturbing rumours and since you were the one
that was spoken about in them I need to ask. You were the last one to see Jin and Hetal
Anjali alive and their men were turned into toads. Only a witch can do that, and since my
family was all accounted for at the time, that leaves you.

20. Laurent: Prince Nimetz, those two Swamp Clan witches made an attempt on your life,
they murdered Prince Caspian’s wife. And all you did, was take their powers. You know
as well as I, that any attempt on the life of a royal is punishable by death. The Council
ordered me to rectify the situation, we cannot allow such a thing to go unpunished. You
know what happened the last time we tried a peaceful solution to a conflict with a witch
clan…

21. Prince Nimetz: My knight Cori made a call and I happened to agree with him. He chose not to kill
them, instead he chose a different path. If we learned anything from our past, it’s that death only
begets more death, the cycle will never end until someone like Cori chooses a different way. He is the
next generation, our future.
Laurent: Prince Nimetz, that fairy is not a knight. He isn’t even a natural born fairy. Fairies do NOT
become knights to witch clan princes and princesses, that is not how the Treaty of Magical Beings
works. Did you forget that?

22. Prince Nimetz: Whether Cori was born a fairy or not, he is one now and as a Prince of the
Nine Clans, I can choose whoever I wish to become my knight.
Laurent: You know this will not sit well with The Council. I want you to know that.

23. Laurent: I am sorry Prince Nimetz, the Council’s orders supersede your
feelings for the boy that your wife resurrected, which as you know, is also
against the treaty. It is considered dark magic to use that spell. I must make you
aware of just how grievous your transgressions are.

24. Prince Nimetz: I lost the duel. As in accordance with the rules of a duel, you as the victor
now have won the right to request anything from me you wish.
Laurent: Fricorith Tricou is to be stripped of his knighthood and ordered to take the
Potent Cure to remove his unnatural fairy powers. These are the Council’s orders. He was
born human and that is how he will be from now on.

25. Prince Nimetz: As you wi-- *CRASH*
Laurent: What?! Where did that come from?! I won the duel but I didn’t do
this!! The prince was never meant to be killed!!

26. Laurent: Prince Nimetz was complying with the rules of the duel, I need to
figure out what happened and where that lightning bolt came from. When I
went to confront Jin and Hetal, all I was supposed to was give them the
Mummy’s Curse as a death sentence, the lightning came out of nowhere then
as well.

27. Tiana: YOU KILLED MY FATHER!! HOW COULD YOU!?
Laurent: No, Lady Tiana, I didn’t. We just dueled, I swear on my honour as a knight!
Ella: This can’t be happening!! Not again!! Nimetz!! Nimetz, NOO!! Don’t leave me!!

28. Grim: Prince Nimetz, this is unexpected. You were not supposed to die now.
Prince Nimetz: How can I tell my family that Sir Laurent is innocent? He didn’t kill me.
That lightning bolt is not magic an Earth Clan knight can use. Only one clan can use
that…and they are all supposed to be dead.

29. Grim: Fricorith, you heard that right? I know you can still hear me. Find
out who murdered Nimetz. I have to take him now, he cannot come back like
you did.
Fricorith: I will. I swear on my life I will.

30. The family was too busy grieving the sudden death of Prince Nimetz to notice that the
fish bowl that once contained the frog named Naveen, was suddenly not where it was
supposed to be…and it was empty.
