Whenever her kingdom is being threatened by a villain or criminal, Annabelle immediately suggests her father not to use violence. She believes that those kind of people can be reasoned with. If not, she'll support her father with apprehending that threat before it destroys her kingdom.

Nonetheless, Annabelle loved Mark for who he was and accepted Jalen and Jordan as her in-laws.

Appearances[]
Dreamcoast[]
On a quiet night, in the kingdom, Annabelle is revealed to be in a dog park watching over the Dalmatian puppies for the week. So, she was unable to meet Mark and his brothers when they arrived. However, when Tank is revived by a mysterious lightning storm, and curses the entire kingdom, plaguing it with monsters and sadistic mercenaries. When Annabelle saw one of the demons coming her way, she immediately sought sanctuary in a secret room under Cinderella’s chateau until someone would come to rescue her.
Three days later, when Mark and the gang begin to find Tank and defeat him. They meet up with him in the city hall building and he informed them that he hired an assassin to eliminate Annabelle, in order to exact horrible vengeance on the royal family. Before leaving, Tank gives the gang, a riddle for them to solve and use to find Annabelle. It was hard for the gang but they managed to solve the riddle and learn that Annabelle is located under the fountain of Cinderella’s chateau. By using the magic wand, Mark makes the fountain disappear and for a staircase to appear. The gang discover Annabelle and Cinderella. Relieved, that her king is here to rescue her and Cinderella, she runs to Mark.
Suddenly, she is tied up in a sticky and slimy web that was fired by Tank’s pet lizard, Scales. During this battle, the Beast and Flynn Rider tried to free the princesses but Scales attempted to swallow them all but Mark and Tinker Bell intervened and they were the ones who were swallowed, much to Annabelle’s horror. While Mark and Tink were inside Scales, they discovered that the lizard was in fact, a robot. Mark used his strength and some of Tinker Bell’s flying dust to help him remove Scales’ power core and destroy him in the process.
Mark frees the princesses from the slimy trap by using the magic wand. Mark and Annabelle officially meet each other and a romantic connection is immediately sparked. Back in the abandoned village, the gang learned that one of Tank's monsters used a metal bomb to freeze time and kidnap Cinderella. Mark discovers that the bomb was from Tomorrowland. The gang was about to journey on Tomorrowland but first Annabelle and the gang, quickly had a wardrobe change in a clothing shop. Once that was over, they journeyed on over to Tomorrowland to search for Darwin and the Dream cyborgs.
They discover that the bomb was from a shop known as the Time Zone and is owned by a robotic groundhog named Jimmy. Inside the Time Zone's basement, the gang learns that Darwin and Tank used to be friends until a heated argument permanently ended their friendship. The gang figured that Tank wanted to exact revenge on Darwin, as well, so they made way to find Darwin and protect him. Just then, the gang encountered another danger, Jimmy's possessed brother, DJ attempted to kill the gang with his laser gun. In the nick of time, the Disney cyborgs arrive to the gang's aid.
Unfortunately, for Blaster and Juarez, they couldn't hold DJ off, long enough, so Mark ordered Tinker Bell to acquire help from Vidia. She arrived at the Time Zone and used her fast-flying abilities to sprinkle sleeping dust on DJ. Once DJ was fast asleep, Mark revealed to the gang, that DJ, along with the other robots in Tomorrowland were all under Tank's control. Vidia takes DJ back to the abandoned village and the gang hurries on to Darwin's observatory to find him. The gang entered the laboratory and discovered that Darwin was trapped on the ceiling by his possessed assistant, Cujo. Despite the inability to move, Darwin tells the gang, how to restore Cujo to his true self.
Annabelle helped Mark open Cujo's head and put his true brain back inside his head, restoring him to his true nature. Darwin is freed from the slime trap and joins the gang on the rest of the journey through Dreamcoast. In a secret castle, Annabelle reads a book that tells the origin of Dreamcoast. To Mark's surprise, Davis was originally a dragon named Elliott who somehow lost control of his dragon abilities and nearly destroy the Disney Kingdom. Sammie managed to tame Davis' aggressive behavior and to keep him from losing control ever again, Davis shapeshifted into a human and changed his name. Also, after Walt Disney's death, he placed pieces of a magical crystal inside Mickey and Friends to preserve the magic and sustain the characters' existence. Mark realized if Tank destroys the crystals, the characters will become mortal and eventually die.
Quickly, the gang was about to exit the secret library to find Mickey and Friends but before the gang could depart from the castle, there was another earthquake. Kovu was standing on a cracking portion of the library about to fall to his death. Mark pushed Kovu out of the way and the former fell to his assumed death. Surprised and saddened at the sight of it, she sadly calls out his name and cries into Aladdin's arms.
Feeling defeated, the gang returns to the abandoned village and informs the citizens, that Mark has been apparently being killed by Tank. Jordan then tells the Dreamcoastians, Mark's tragic and cruel backstory and the princess felt sympathy as the story was told. Determined to help his friends, Lucky activates the security cameras and reveals to everyone that Mark was alive. Annabelle listened to the deal that Mark made with Tank and she was shocked at the fact that Mark would belong Tank for eternity. Tank used his magic to turn Mark into a dragon, and the mythical creatures began to battle.
Mark was briefly knocked out by one of Tank's blow and was about to be viciously mauled by Tank. Determined to protect Mark, she used a microphone to communicate with him. She and the Dreamcoastians lifted Mark's spirits by telling him, what a great friend, leader, and hero, he's been. Just then, Annabelle proclaimed her love for Mark, and upon hearing that proclaim, Mark brushed his insecurities and self-doubts for a braver and bolder demeanor. Annabelle watched in joy as Mark fought Tank, with help from Mickey and Friends.
Annabelle's joy suddenly turned into tears when Mark told Mickey and Friends to leave him to confront Tank on his own, despite the fact, that once Tank is dead, so will his spells, turning Mark back into a human and being unable to escape from his crumbling lair. Before Lucky could turn the cameras off, Mark told Annabelle, that he loved her too. Once the cameras were turned off, Annabelle sat on a chair and mourned the imminent death of her lover.
Luckily, for Mark, when Tank was killed and his curse was lifted, two unidentified flying animals (who reveal to be Mufasa and Hurley) rescued Mark and brought him back to the kingdom where he was reunited with Annabelle and the others. As she happily chatted over Mark's survival, Mark cut the conversation short by sharing a kiss with her. Annabelle embraced her parents as the Dreamcoastians carried Mark back to the restored castle for a celebration party.
Four years later, Annabelle turned 19 and she married Mark and became queen of Dreamcoast. Once the wedding was over for the day, Mark and Annabelle enjoyed a quiet waltz together and told each other that they're willing to have fun on their adventures, that they'll go with each other and their closest friends.
