With that out of the way, let's introduce the first three Imagineers!


In a New York City apartment, an 18-year-old man was binge watching the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies in preparation for "Thor: Ragnarok: that upcoming fall. He was of a standard build with brown hair that spiked up at the front, with blue-green eyes underneath a pair of crystal (or foggy white)-frame glasses. He was wearing a purple T-shirt underneath a grey jacket and a pair of blue jeans.

As the boy, named Dylan, was getting around to "Guardians of the Galaxy", he heard a scratching at the window.

"What is it?" Dylan called, expecting it to be one of his neighbors in the apartment above or below him. Not getting an answer, he paused the movie to go to his window to check it out. Opening the window, he was surprised to see a raccoon sitting on the raining.

"Hey! What are you doing up here?" Dylan said, shooing the creature off. As the raccoon scurried down to street level, the boy was a bit confused. "Why would a raccoon have climbed up here so far from the trash cans?" Dylan questioned.

It was then that he noticed something down on the floor: an envelope of some kind.

"What's this?" he asked. Picking the letter up, he turned it over to see a seal with the Mickey Mouse head on it.


Meanwhile, on a rooftop in another part of New York, an 18-year-old girl was watching the sunset over the city. She had tan skin (similar to a middle-eastern tone but lighter) with long black hair that partially covered her right eye, the light of the city catching her purple highlights. She was wearing a long-sleeve shirt similar to her favorite superhero, Ms. Marvel Kamala Khan, with a red scarf, silver bracelets, and tight black jeans.

This was Kristen, though everyone calls her "Krys". She was an immigrant from Australia that was the daughter to a Muslim family, which lead to some conflicts when she wanted both to embrace living in America and her heritage. Once she was old enough, she moved to New York City with her friend Dylan to pursue her dream of becoming a cartoonist.

As she looked out into the sunset, something flew past her, making her shiver from the breeze. Looking around, she noticed something in the gargoyle statue next to her. The statue reminded her of the Disney show "Gargoyles", which was her favorite show growing up.

"What is this?" she asked to herself, her voice ringing with a slight Aussie accent. Reaching into the gargoyle's mouth, she pulled out an envelope with the Mickey Mouse logo on it.


Down in the southern region of the U.S., a Hispanic boy was playing "Kingdom Hearts 0.2" on his PS4. He had dark brown hair and brown eyes, and wearing a red shirt and blue jeans, with a necklace identical to Sora's from "Kingdom Hearts". He also had various anime and Kingdom Hearts posters on his walls, with the exception of the Zootopia poster that he had due to it being his favorite Disney movie.

"Come on Mickey, let's finish these Heartless off," said Jesse, the 16-year-old completely focused on his game. Just as he was about to finish the final boss of the game, his mother called him.

"Jesse, you got mail!" said his mother from the kitchen.

"Ugh," the boy groaned, pausing his game as he was taken out of his flow. "I'll get it," he called back, walking into the kitchen to pick up the letter.

"I didn't know you entered a Disney contest for that game you play," his mother said, handing Jesse the letter.

"First if all, Kingdom Hearts is a collaboration between Disney and Square Enix," said Jesse, taking the letter, "and second of all… I never entered a contest."

"Well your name is on the letter, open it up," his mother encouraged.

"I was getting to that," Jesse said. Pulling up the seal, the boy pulled out the letter to see what was inside.


Meanwhile, another boy was reading the exact same letter, though he was living way up north in the country of Canada.

"Dear Axel," read the boy, sitting down in a bean bag chair, "you have been selected to be a part of a special program courtesy of the Walt Disney Company. You and eleven others will take part in an all-expense paid trip to Walt Disney World, where you will be taken behind the scenes to see how the magic happens."

Setting down the letter, Axel looked at himself in the nearby mirror. He had short brown hair with hazel eyes. He was wearing red, like a lot of red. He had a red shirt with Iron Man on the front, with red athletic shorts and orange running shoes. Smiling a bit, he turned to the bird cage in his room which held a snowy owl.

"Came you believe it, Alex?" the boy said excitedly, "I've been selected to go to Disney World for free!"

The owl gave a short hoot, flying over to the 15-year-old's bed to grab a plushie of Destiny from his owner's favorite PIXAR movie, "Finding Dory".

"Yep, that's the one," Axel said, putting on his authentic Mario hat and black fingerless gloves. "I wish I could take you with me, but Disney isn't Hogwarts." He laughed a bit, petting his owl. "I'll see you when I get back."
