Enchanted - The Sequel Project

A while back, there was a rumor that Disney is look at Enchanted as a franchise, that there might be several sequels to the story. I think it's a good idea. So starting with this post, I'm going to explore several possible story line that could evolve out of the first Enchanted movie. Now I'm not connected with the Walt Disney Company in any way, so none of the story line that I'm writing has anything to do with any possible story line that the company has planned for future Enchanted movies. The stories that I'm writing came out of my own overactive imagination.

We pick up the story at the end of the first Enchanted movie.

Giselle and Robert are happily married in the real world, and so are Nancy and Prince Edward (now King Edward) in Andalasia. The early part of the story focuses on Andalasia. Things are going along fairly well, with Nancy (now Princess Nancy) trying to adopt to the fairy-tale life in the animation world. She in fact is going through what Giselle had gone through, but for opposite reasons.

However, their perfect life is interrupted suddenly. A citizen from the outer edged of Andalasia came with an ominous warning that a large army from the nation of Suh has invaded Andalasia and heading towards the palace. This surprised and puzzled Edward at the same time, since it is highly unexpected. While the ruler of Suh, King Germaine, isn't on the best of terms with Andalasia, both nations are also not at war with each other. Furthermore, Suh is extremely far away from Andalasia (a horse ride that takes 6 nights and 7 days) and the two nations are separated from each other by 2 other nations. So if King Germaine simply wants to conquer land, he would have gone after his neighbors first, and such an act would have caused alarmed news to be spread throughout the region. No such news has been heard. So it would appear that the army from Suh is aiming for Andalasia and the palace.

So Edward is certainly puzzled by this attack. Still, he has to defend his land, and he has been trained since he was a child in the art and skill of a battle. Much to the consternation of his advisers and Nancy, he decides to go into battle and lead his army. He leaves instructions for the palace to be fortified, and after one last kiss, he parted from Nancy to go into battle against the army of King Germaine.

Two days later, the palace at Andalasia is under seige from King Germaine's army. No one knows what had happened to Edward and the army he lead. The palace fortification holds for another 2 full days before finally, the palace is invaded. Many are taken prisoners, but only Nancy was taken captive and brought back to the King Germaine's castle in the nation of Suh. While she still has a feisty instinct from her life as a real person, she is still frightened and wondered why she is brought back to a place that she isn't familiar with. As she is forced to sit on the floor in the middle of the King's grand reception room, she realizes the sad possibility that her Edward may have perished in the battle.

But she does not have time to dwell on her sadness because all of the sudden, escorted by a number of palace officials, came in this towering figure full of royal regalia. As he stood in front of his throne, King Germaine looks directly at Nancy. During his stare at Nancy, his face turns from a cold, unemotional look into a red, anger. He suddenly takes bold steps towards Nancy.

"Where is she? WHERE IS SHE?!!!", he exclaims as he strides closer and closer towards Nancy with eyes full of fury.
