Note: I'd like to point out that this story will have a few new worlds that haven't been explored in the video games, as well they will strictly remain Disney-based worlds. However, I will be adding many Final Fantasy aspects to the story to spice it up a bit.

Prepare for a somewhat long chapter. Sorry, its just better if I get all of this over with this chapter.

Chapter 2 - The Mysterious Key

Chris was standing on the dock of Total Drama Island. "I didn't wanna have to do this," Chris stated, glaring at the fourteen teens floating in the lake, "but since none of you officially won, you all officially tied. Which means, you will all have another chance at winning the million dollars, on season two."

Duncan glared at the television host, "Ha, forget this. I didn't agree to season two."

"Actually," McLean smirked back at him, "you did. It's called the fine print. Read it, live it, love it."

"I hate the fine print!" water logged Gwen growled.

"As for the rest of you," Chris turned to the rest of the teens standing on the dock, "your treasure hunt ends here, along with all of your hopes of ever winning any money off of being on this show."

Noah and Eva glared at Chris as he continued, "the good news though, you'll be watching all the action from season two on the sidelines."

"Wait a minute!" Courtney yelled, "I wanna be on season two!"

Chris held his hand up and smirked, "fine print."

"This is an outrage," Courtney protested, a loud blast of thunder roared in the sky, "They don't even want to be on another season."

"Which makes having them on another season even better," Chris laughed.

Courtney, becoming flustered from not being able to join the next season stormed off into the woods to cool herself down.

Bridgette, whom climbed back onto the dock, walked over to Cody, "should we go after her?" the tech geek asked.

Bridgette watch as Courtney ripped a tree branch from a tree and batted a little pink bird a mile into the air, "I think it's best if we let her blow off some steam," the surfer girl suggested.

"Good idea," Cody agreed.

Disney Castle

In an unknown castle, a male duck waddled down a large hallway with joy. He was wearing a mage hat, with a curly tip, and other mage garments. The cheery atmosphere was surly adding to his happiness.

He stopped at a large white door. Knocking once a smaller portion of the door opened, revealing the true entrance to the chamber. The white duck strutted into the room with a smile plastered on his face, "Good morning your Majesty! It's nice to see you this morn-" His words cut off as he saw that no one was sitting on the chair. "What?" he exclaimed.

From behind the seat, a canine poked its head out. As it stepped into view, the duck saw that the dog had a note in his mouth. Observing closely, he recognized the seal on the bottom of the envelope.

Taking the note from the dog's mouth he opened it up. His eyes ran over the paper from side to side, carefully to read each word. Blinking after wards, he bolted out of the room, screaming at the top of his lungs.

The white duck made it out to what looked to be the courtyard of the castle. In a hasty manner, he ran to the center of the garden where, taking a nap was what looked to be a large dog. His metal hat and armor gave away his role as knight.

Snoring away, his leg he had crossed over the other bobbed up and down. The white duck was yelling as he got to the sleeping mutt, "Wake up Goofy, wake up! This is serious!" The dog's nose twitched as he continued his snoring, not seeming to be bothered at all by the ducks blathering.

Furious, the duck raised his finger and summoned a skinny jolt of lighting down onto the sleeping dog.

This time, the creature was awakened. Wiping the sleepiness from his eyes, he looked at the duck, "Hey there Donald, G'morning."

"We've got a problem, Goofy!" Donald butted in, "but don't tell anyone!"

Looking at him with confusion, Goofy replied, "Queen Minnie?"

"Not even the Queen!"

"Daisy?"

"Noooooooo!" He yelled, "it's top secret!" his stern look of annoyance grew at the dogs ignorance.

Looking past the angered duck, Goofy greeted, "G'morning, ladies."

His eyes grew with puzzlement. "Whaa?" He slowly turned around, to see a female mouse and duck standing there. The mouse had black fur, and wore a white and red gown, with her gold and red crown on her head. The duck had white feathers and was wearing a white and purple dress, with a tiny crown on her head.

Placing her hands on her hips, the female duck looked at Donald with a look with a glare, while the queen smiled at him as he stared back at the two animals.

Total Drama Island - Resort Pool

"I can't believe that man is bringing us back for another season, "LeShawna groaned, floating in the inflatable pool chair.

"Its like he has no life of his own and is making our lives miserable to make up for it," Heather added, also floating on a chair in the pool.

"I'm kind of excited to be on another season," Bridgette admitted, after breaking from a kiss.

"An excuse to make out with your boyfriend?" Noah queried.

She giggled and blushed, "maybe, but at least we'll get to spend more time together."

"Speak for yourself, surfer girl," Heather replied, "I was looking forward to getting away from this crowd and now I'm forced to spend another forty-two days with them."

"Like we're happy about," Gwen replied.

"Whatever, this time I better win," Heather noted, "you losers got that?"

"Crythtal clear," Beth lisped.

"Good, Lindsay, hand me the sun screen," Heather demanded, reaching for the sun screen.

"Genius, haven't you noticed the sky is as black as Chris' heart?" Noah pointed out, leaning against the cabana.

"The sky is is getting pretty nasty," Trent stated, standing near Gwen, "I've never seen it like this."

"Maybe Courtney summoned this storm with her anger," Harold laughed. A big streak of lightning zipped through the sky, followed by a big, loud roar of thunder.

"That doesn't sound good," Tyler stuttered.

"I hate thunder storms," Lindsay cried, clinging to Tyler, "I wish Tyler was here." Tyler sulked but still held on to her.

Bridgette was looking around the area, counting as she looked, "seventeen, eighteen..."

"What are you doing?" Cody asked.

"I'm making sure everyone is here," she answered, "nineteen, twenty, twenty-one...We're missing someone."

"Oh, no!" Duncan exclaimed, "Princess never returned from her temper tantrum."

"We've gotta go find her." Trent informed.

"Um, hello," Heather yelled, "from the looks of the sky it looks like the world is about to end."

"We can't just leave her out there, Heather," Katie yelled back at her.

"Katie is right, we've got to help her, she could get killed." Sadie agreed.

"Or worse, she could get frizz!" Lindsay shouted!

"Oh, that's bad," Sadie said with Katie nodding in agreement.

"You guys, I think we have bigger problems, eh," Ezekiel pointed out hiding behind the buffet table. He pointed upward at the sky that began to swirl into a strange, black, vortex over the resort. It swirled and howled in the night sky as it got larger and larger.

The teens stared in awe as the wind inside it screamed, crackled and snapped violently. Frozen with fear, none could manage to bring themselves to speak. Gaining the courage Beth stuttered, "Um, I think we should run for our lives."

"I second that motion," Harold wheezed. Every one screamed in terror and ran around like chickens with their heads cut off. Frantically running to find somewhere to hide, they were completely unaware of the glowing eyes of the creatures concealed in the shadows.

Disney Castle - The Library

"Donald,

Sorry to rush off without saying' good bye but there's big trouble brewin'. Not sure why, but a whole bunch of stars have been blinkin' out, one by one. And that means disaster can't be far behind. I hate leavin' you all, but I gotta check it out.

There's someone with a "key" - the key to survival. So I need you and Goofy to go find him and his three guardians. Got it? We need that key or we're doomed! So go to Traverse Town and find Leon. He'll point you in the right direction.

P.S.

Would you apologize to Minnie for me?

Thanks pal."

"Oh dear!" Exclaimed Daisy, "What could this mean?"

"It means, we'll just have to trust the king," Minnie declared.

"Gawrsh, I hope he's alright," Goofy pouted.

Donald crossed his arms and responded, "Your highness!" The queen turned her attention to the duck, "Don't worry, we'll find this key."

The Queen replied, "Thank you, both of you."

Turning his focus to the female duck, he asked, "Daisy, can you take care of the-"

"Of course, you be careful now, both of you."

"We hope for your safe return," the Queen affirmed, "Please, help the king." Donald put his hand to his chest in salute to his promise to the Queen. The Queen mouse smiled as Daisy gave him a nod in appeasement. His attention wandered over to the saluting dog next to the duck.

"You're coming too!" He yelled as he drug the dog off.

After walking down a dark stone staircase, lightened only by mouse-head-shaped lights on the wall, Donald and Goofy entered into a room. Giant gears were churning around, operating pipes, showing that this was the main operating room of the castle. In the center of this room was a red and yellow aircraft.

Stepping up to a pipe, the duck spoke into it, "Hello up there, Donald Duck to launch crew, anytime you're ready!"

Two tiny chipmunks were operating the room. One of them scurried over to a lever and pulled it down. A giant hand reached down and grabbed a hold of the two animals.

Once they were settled into the ship, the dog from earlier, jumped into the ship with them. As they prepared to take off, the opening in front of them opened. In a matter of moments the ship blasted off into space.

Total Drama Island - Resort Pool

Katie and Sadie were holding each other's hand as they ran around the swimming pool. The larger BFFFL stumbled and fell to the ground, "Oh my gosh!" Katie cried as she went to help her friend, "Sadie, are you ok?"

"I'm fine," Sadie replied dusting herself off as her friend lifted her to her feet, "just a little dirty."

"Ewww, I hate when you fall down and you get dirt all over your clothes," Katie groaned.

"Oh, I know right? It's like sooo bad, especially when you're out in public and everyone sees," Sadie agreed. As Katie nodded her head in agreement, Sadie saw something sneak up behind her friend. "Oh, my gosh!" She screamed, "Katie there's something behind you."

The tan bffl quickly turned around and watched as a strange shadow moved across the pool tiles. Shivering in each other's arms, they screamed in terror as the creature quickly raised from the ground, filling its body out.

It's glowing yellow eyes surveyed the area until they fell upon the frightened girls. It sprinted towards them, causing them to yell in fear and run off as fast as they could. "Help, help!" they shouted.

They ran straight into DJ and LeShawna. Katie and Sadie wrapped their arms around DJ for protection."What's wrong, girls?" asked LeShawna who tried to comfort them.

Shivering with fright, Katie managed to reply, "This small, black, monster thingy like tried to attack us."

"Say what?"

Both of them nodded, "Yeah, it was really small, but scary," Sadie nodded, "it crawled around on the ground like a shadow."

"It had these glowing yellow eyes and was like 'Grrr, I'm gonna get you', and tried to hurt us," Katie wined as they tightened their hold on DJ, "it was over by the swimming pool."

"Well, girls," LeShawna walked near the pool, "I don't see anything other than a pile of hot dogs." She pointed to a large pile of hot dogs that were lying on the ground. "Owen must've been eating them and dropped them when the vortex appeared."

"AHHH!" Katie and Sadie screamed into DJ's chest.

"What!" LeShawna turned around to see what they were screaming at. One of the tiny creatures from before was standing right in front of the mocha skinned girl. "Oh, no, don't you even think about touching me with those puny little arms of yours." She warned.

The unknown monster didn't seem afraid of the girls warning as it just stared at her and wiggled its head arms. "What are you? Some kind of deformed wombat or something?" The small monster looked around and then, without warning, jumped towards LeShawna.

LeShawna moved back and bumped a lawn chair just before the monster could reach her. "Oh, so that's how it's going to be?" She growled, "Well, come on now! Show Shawnie what you've got."

The black creature jumped towards her once more. LeShawna grabbed hold of the lawn chair and with a massive swing, smacked it into the monster. The impact from the swing caused the monster to burst into shadows. "Oh yeah, I'm bad! Oh yeah, oh yeah!" She danced around, "Looks like you won't be wigglin' them eyes around anymore sugar."

Duncan, Bridgette, Eva, Cody and Geoff were fending off more of the mysterious creatures. Geoff kicked one of them in the face as it tried to attack Bridgette.

"Oh, Geoff," she smiled, touching his face, "that was so brave of you." Geoff pulled Bridgette into his arms and the two began to make out.

"Only those two could make out in a state of major chaos." Eva rolled her eyes punching one of the monsters.

"Yeah, well this is no time for making out," Duncan stated, "Courtney's not back and I don't wanna leave her out there by herself. I'm going to find her."He pulled out his knife and ran off.

"I'll go with you," Cody shouted following behind him.

They passed by LeShawna who was protecting the cowering friends who, as it turns out, were protecting DJ. "Where you two goin' off to so fast with that knife?" the dark skinned girl asked, "ain't no time to be lootin'."

Duncan didn't reply, but Cody answered as he followed, "We're going to look for Courtney."

"Dang fool's got it bad, riskin' his life and all to save a major pain in the behind." She laughed.

Across the pool, Trent and Gwen were battling with the black creatures."You know what I've noticed?" Gwen asked as she beat one with a grill fork.

"What would that be?" Trent replied as he punched one in the face.

As she stuck the fork through one of the monsters she answered, "That no matter how many we kill, they just keep coming."

Everyone realized that she was right. Each time they killed one, two more popped up after wards. "Weird Goth girl is right," agreed Heather smacking the monsters with a pool noodle, "these things multiply like crazy."

"Oh my gosh, they're just like the pet bunnies I use to have!" Lindsay revealed as she hit a monster with one of the foam noodles Heather had given her, "I had like 30 in a matter of days, and mom said we had to give most of them away because it turns out, she was totally allergic to them and her face swelled up like a blimp, it was so bad."

"That happened to me once, eh," Ezekiel replied from the top of the lamp post he was clinging to.

Heather rolled her eyes as the teens continued to fight off the horde of mysterious monsters.

Cody was having a hard time keeping up with Duncan. The punk was much faster than him and the dark sky made it almost impossible to see where he was going. "Duncan, slow down," he shouted, trying to get the punk to let him catch up.

It was way to dark to see where he was going so he didn't see the rock in his path until he tripped over it, landing on the ground. "Ouch," he hissed, rubbing his arm.

He looked around at his surroundings and realized he was lost, "Oh great, just great!" he shouted standing to his feet, "Now what am I suppose to do?"

A tree branch snapped behind him, "Who's there?" He asked, slowly backing away,"Duncan, is that you?"

A large group of the creatures from before sprung up from the ground. "Yikes!" He yelped, "Uh, nice monsters, you don't wanna eat me, see?" He lifted up his shirt, "I'm just skin and bones."

His attempts at stopping them didn't help and they continued their approach. "Oh man, what am I going to do?" He was slowly backing up, and eventually bumped into a tree, "crap!" he shouted.

The creatures were ten feet away now and were in jumping range. Three of the monsters lunged towards him. He screamed and held up his arms in defense.

Then something strange happened. A bright light engulfed him and the monsters. When it died down, Cody saw that the monsters were no longer there. "What the heck happened?" He asked, "Well, at least they're gone." He shrugged his arms and noticed he was holding something.

"What's this?" He asked, admiring the blade in his hand. It had a guard with a handle, and a hilt. What made it different than a normal blade was the head at the end of the shaft resembled the teeth of a skeleton key.

He didn't have enough time to figure out what it was for another group of monsters were coming toward him. "Again?" He looked at the blade, "Oh well, I've got this now." He rushed at the monsters and easily dispatched them, turning them into shadowy dust.

"Man, this thing rocks!" he shouted in joy. He looked up into the sky and saw the vortex was getting larger. "Crap, I better get back to the resort."

As the teens fought off the horde of monsters, the vortex in the sky continued to increase in size. The winds started to get stronger and the sky began to crackle.

"Oh man," Gwen shouted over the roaring winds, "this thing is like a black hole."

"I'm not ready to die, eh," Ezekiel shouted, cowering behind LeShawna.

"What are you guys talking about?" Izzy cackled, "This is like the greatest thing ever."

"In the twisted void that is your mind it might be, but in ours this is a big problem," Heather yelled.

"Have the others come back yet?" Harold shouted.

"I haven't seen them," Justin replied holding on to a pole.

The sky roared and howled above them, the vortex getting even larger. "Oh how could it get any worse?" Heather shouted.

Just as she said that, the hotel began to break apart and everyone was violently sucked into the sky. As they were all being pulled closer to the vortex they looked over at Heather, "You just had to ask." Everyone shouted.

The resort building began to crumble and fly into the eye of the vortex and soon the entire world was consumed into the vortex.

Hmm, doesn't look too good for them, does it?

What are these creatures that appeared on the island?

Where will they end up after being sucked into this strange black-hole like portal?

What's the deal with this "key" mentioned in Mickey's letter?

What happened to Courtney and Duncan?

Find out the answers to these, well most of 'em, next chapter!

It actually wasn't as long as I thought it was going to be, oh well, I hope it wasn't boring or anything.
