Ariel was walking to the diner she was looking for someone. A person she never thought she would actively seek out. Ariel had an idea it was a shot in the dark but it was also a way to keep herself safe finally.
If it worked she would never have to fear going back into the ocean. If people hated her she was pretty sure she wouldn't care. The plan had flaws but Ariel had given up more for less in the past. She made her way into the diner. If she had to wait here everyday for Mal to show up she would.

Maleficent toyed with the straw in her soda, she loved the little bendy ones best, and the stripes.... for hatever reason they amused her in such a simple way.
Her green eyes almost on cue went to the Mermaid as she entered the Diner, looking.... distressed, unhappy, not uncommon to Maleficent given her past but she always reveled in it no matter how frequent it came.
"Ariel! So lovely to see you again," She purred leaning in on the table," Your looking positively.... awful, if I may say- not a bad look for you dear..."

Ariel was shocked Mal was there, it was like she knew. Ariel shook her head she couldn't know.
"Um thanks," She walked over to her, "Can we talk?" Ariel asked her her voice low.

" Of course," Her smile sweetly venomous," have a seat... tell me whats troubling you- I always love listening to others woes..." Not to make them feel any better of course.
"No, no, let me guess first!" She interrupted before Ariel could speak," Your sisters found you! And.... they all are troubled little whores with the same pimp? Where's your father? he was taken by the curse as well, yes? Is he homeless? Half-crazed from lack of food or clean water?"

"Well no," Ariel never did understand the things that made Mal happy.
"I have a question, I have to love Hook or I will be come a mermaid again but if my heart still loves him. Well would it matter if my heart was inside of me or not?" Ariel asked.
She was wondering, if Mal might understand what she was saying.

She blinked,"... well... I suppose not"
What a strange question- so few actually let such a horrid thought cross their mind, for a moment the Dark fairy half admired Ariel for coming up with such a solution and being so bold to propose it,"...... but giving up your heart.... well it's quite a sacrifice"

"I am no stranger to sacrifice, as you know. Loving Hook has cost me more then I am ever willing to admit. Can you take it? My heart I mean... Then I can be free from all of it?"
Ariel didn't want to feel anything, she couldn't be free from Hook, he might not ever come back and she would be trapped loving him forever. Unable to connect again with her family and unable to love anyone who might actually love her back. Ariel didn't want to feel anymore if this was the price, once she lost her heart she wouldn't care. She would never care about anything after all she went though she just wanted not to care if that meant giving her heart to Mal then it was just another scacrifice she was going to make.

The little fool, she had to know by now Maleficent wouldn't do a thing for her unless she knew it would make her more miserable than before she came to her. Then again Ariel wouldn't be able to feel it. She'd be numb to the disaster stirring all around her. It would be perfect!
Then again.... she remembered the first time they'd met on that island.... yes, Mal did develop a sort of soft spot for the girl there.... damn, perhaps removing her own heart was not sucha terrible idea. No- it was, from what she'd seen such an act only led to disaster.
"You're sure that's what you want?"

Ariel nodded, "I have nothing left, those who still care about me I just end up hurting. I can't move on, I can't go back I am stuck at least without a heart I wont care. Yes I want this, a mermaid heart has to be enough of a price for you to do it?"
Ariel wasn't sure what a mermaid heart was worth to Mal maybe nothing but Ariel had nothing else left to give her. She needed the pain to stop it didn't matter the cost.

"it'll work just fine..." Mal stood," Perhaps we ought to take this somewhere a bit more private?"
She gestured to the door," After you"

"Of course, lets" Ariel stood up and walked out of the diner. Did Mal want to do this in the alley? Ariel wasn't sure should she have thought about this a little more? Probably but she wouldn't care in a few moments.
"Where would you like to go?" Ariel asked once they got outside.

Mal took her wrist and pulled her into the ally way, then shoved her hard into the brick wall," Here is fine..."
Her lips quirked into a smile and she came uncomfortably close to the girl, she pressed her hand against her hip holding her to the wall as her hand traveled up to her chest," try not to squirm.."
Without another word she thrust her hand into Ariel's chest, grasping onto the beating, pulsating heart within,"Oooo.... it's warm"

Ariel lurched forward as she felt unbelievable pain sear her chest. She wanted to scream but could only take a deep breath as pain shot though her.
Ariel felt tears of pain prick her eyes, "Take it!" She yelled at Mal her voice cracking with the effort. Still Mal held on to it inside her chest squeezing Ariel wondered if she might kill her right there. It would be another way to end the pain and suddenly she didn't care.
Ariel grabbed on to the wall, waiting for The Dark Fairy to finally pull the heart from her. She was making this last probably to prolong the pain Ariel had to feel as it was being done. Something the Dark Fairy was no doubt enjoying.

Finally Mal jerked her hand back and pulled out the beating shining heart, She stared at it fascinated then gave a cheerful laugh," My this one is a beauty...."
Ariel collapsed to the ground," Now, I hope you realize tis will only save you from emotional pain, physical pain is something you will still have to endure" She waved her hand and a little black box designed with scale like patterns along the sides," Well, it's out now, I'll take good care of it, I promise..."

Ariel fell to the ground on the cold concrete she trying to catch hold of her breath. The pain was receding she felt nothing, no love no happiness ...nothing. Ariel got up off the ground, she looked around as if she didn't remember what just happened.
Ariel nodded, "Thanks," she told her confused, she had never felt so empty. Ariel left Mal without another word. She walked down the street, Ariel felt cold nothing was bothering her at the moment. It was a surreal feeling she wasn't used to she walked down the town streets not knowing what to do next and not caring in the slightest.
