Mickey and Gus ran through the jungle, panting and sweating. "Mickey, look out!" Mickey looked up, and gasped in surprise when one of the blot monsters jumped up, about to land on top of him. Quickly, he took out Yen Sid's paintbrush and splattered the blot with the green thinner.

"They're growing in numbers!" Gus threw a handful of thinner using the new slingshot they bought from the store at another ink monster. "I know! We have to find shelter!" Panting heavily, the mouse looked at the Gremlin. "Even if we do, how are we going to get past these things? We'll never make it!" Gus shrugged helplessly. "We're just gonna have to make a run for it!" Mickey nodded.

"Now, Mickey!" Both of the heroes ran through the vast crowd of monsters, throwing thinner everywhere they could. Mickey jumped over one of the monsters, then summoned a giant anvil with his anvil sketches. He couldn't help but chuckle at the downed monster. "Good job Mickey!" Mickey gave Gus a thumbs-up, but quickly ran again as more blots began to form.

Gus quickly looked ahead, and gasped in terror. There were new monsters here. They were dark like the Blot's minions, but they had yellow eyes. All of them had a round head, antennas, claws, and feet. Gus felt a rise in panic when he saw that he couldn't help Mickey because he didn't have any knowledge about these things. Gus turned to Mickey, who also stopped in surprise and horror at the sight of the new monsters.

Gus turned to Mickey, giving him a look of hopelessness. "I don't know what those things are, Mickey!" Mickey answered without hesitation, "It's the Heartless." Gus gave Mickey an inquisitive look. "How'd you know that?"

Mickey looked up at the hovering Gremlin with surprise and confusion, "…I have no idea."

Before they could talk any further, one of the Heartless creatures began throwing itself toward the mouse. Mickey faced the monster with a look of determination, and fired thinner at the monster. To his shock, the thinner had no effect.

This is not gonna end well… But before the Heartless could attack Mickey, a figure slashed through the creature with his sword, letting it disappear with a soft hiss. Mickey looked up and saw a boy in a black coat, with black pants and black shoes turn to him. The coat had a zipper in the middle, and two silver chains hung down from the hood. The boy had long, spiky, silver hair that fell to his shoulders. But what was most puzzling was the black ribbon he had over his eyes.

Mickey looked at the boy, not knowing why a rush of trust, friendship, and loyalty filled his being. The boy knelt down, and offered his hand to the mouse. Mickey took it quickly, then turned to look in anxiety at the crowding monsters. He jumped when he saw the boy stretch out his arm, and a black tunnel-like portal began to form from his hand.

The boy turned toward Mickey and Gus. "Come on. The portal won't remain open forever." Mickey nodded at Gus, who nodded back, and both followed the boy into the portal.
