Blood is Thicker Than Magic
Once upon a time, there were two young beautiful sea creatures. They had legs of octopuses but the faces of angels. Morgana, the youngest of the two always found herself in trouble and Ursula constantly had to burst her bubble. One day, Morgana wandered off towards a dark sea cave when Ursula was not looking. A dying sea witch grabbed her and dragged her off into the darkness. Ursula began to panick, unable to find her younger sister. She noticed the cave and realized that it would be a perfect hiding spot for Morganna. Ursula swims over to the cave and is shocked to witness Morgana and a sea witch plotting together. Morgana wants to become a bad witch like the sea witch but Ursula steps in before it's too late. She attempts to fight the sea witch but fails ultimately. The sea witch gave the two a proposition; if the two fight to the death then the winner will take on her legacy. Morgana jumped up and attacked Ursula. Betrayed, Ursula fights back. She does not want the legacy of an evil sea witch but she would do anything to stop Morgana from succumbing to that fate. After a few minutes, Ursula over powers Morgana and knocks her unconscious. The sea witch believes that she is dead and transforms Ursula into an large, grotesque octopus witch. Her beauty was taken away from her and so was any shred of kindness. The sea witch, now satisfied with her successor, dies by transforming herself into sand. Ursula turns to Morgana's sleeping body and turns her into a squid. The love that once filled her heart for her sister now became hate. Now Ursula, with her new pet squid, lay in the depths of the sea cave, doing no good and playing tricks on innocent fish and mermaids alike.
