Valley of Peace: Pool of Sacred Tears
An entire year had passed since Rex began his training and he had now remove the bandages that covered his. When he looked into the mirror, he discovered that that his right eye was completely blind and that some of his fur had been burned completely off.
To hide this facial feature, he started to begin wearing a hood that completely covered his face. In that one year of training in learning kung fu, Rex had managed to get a good handle on his sword and managed to unlock new magical abilities.
Master Oogway was very impressed with his progress and had led him to a secret cave in a mountain. Inside was a lake of pure water and the way that it was formed resembled the symbol of ying and yang and in front of them was a stone dragon.
"You have done very well in this one year alone," said Oogway.
"All thanks to your training, Master," said Rex respectfully.
"Of course," Oogway chuckled. "However you still have a touch of revenge in your heart, and that is something that we must remedy. Though I fear that we do not have time as Master Ventus will soon arrive to take you away from this world."
Oogway had informed Rex on the first few days that he knew that he was from another world along with Ven. This news incompletely surprise Rex as he knew that certain authority figures in worlds knew about other worlds and those that journey to and from them.
"Is this what you brought me here?" Rex asked.
"This is the place where I discovered the meaning of harmony and focus," Oogway explained. "And it is where you shall learn inner peace."
Rex frowned. "Inner peace."
"Observe," said Oogway.
A single drop then felt towards him and somehow he managed to catch the drop and began to guide along his body without it spilling. Rex watched in wonder at the hand movements that Oogway was using until finally he settled the drop on a single leaf.
"That was amazing," said Rex stunned.
"Yes, it was," Oogway chuckled. "Though it is not an easy to learn. There are only two ways of discovering Inner Peace. There is the way that I learned, meditating on a single cave like this for 50 years without food or water."
Rex was very certain that he would be able to accomplish such a feat. "And the other?"
Oogway looked at Rex. "You need to experience it for pain and suffering. You have indeed suffered great pain and suffering, but now you must accept that suffering and pain and use it into a force of good."
Rex frowned. "Not sure if I can accomplish such a feat."
Oogway nodded. "It is something that you need to learn for yourself and hopefully you do such a thing in your journey."
Rex turned and saw Ven standing there with his hands behind his back.
"It's time," he said.
Rex nodded and drew his sword and then opened yet another portal which he and Ven entered threw it.
"Save travels, my friends," said Oogway.
Treasure Planet: Jungle
Rex and Ven soon exited the portal and found themselves in yet another new world. So far the world they were in didn't seem very impressive as they could see were large rocks and trees.
"Where are we?" Rex asked.
Ven looked around. "I'm not sure, I've never been to this world before. In fact I don't think anyone has."
Rex looked at him. "You mean we've discovered an entirely new world?"
Ven nodded. "That would be the case."
Then suddenly they heard movement directly behind them and Ven immediately grabbed something within the bushes and pulled it out. The movement turned out to be an old robot covered in moss and was looking very excited to see them.
"This is fantastic!" he cried. "Finally some company!"
Rex and Ven looked at one another and they could tell that the robot was no threat to them.
"I take it you don't get much company round here," said Rex.
"Company? I'm lucky to see any kind of life, much less a carbon-based life form," said the robot as it got to its feet. "Please tell me that you have come to rescue me. If you are I could just hug you."
"Please no hugging," said Ven.
"Sorry," said the robot. "It's just that after hundred years of solitude one gets a little nuts."
"I can imagine," said Rex. "And would you mind telling us who you are?"
"Well… I'm… my name is," said the robot trying to think heavily. "B.E.N! Of course I'm B.E.N. Bio Electronic Navigator."
Ven folded his arms and looked at Rex. "It would seem as if we've landed in a futuristic world, similar to Deep Space."
"Are the many worlds that span across an entire galaxy?" Rex asked.
"Not many," Ven admitted.
There was suddenly pulled out of their thoughts when they heard screams not too far way.
"What was that?" said Rex.
"Oh, that must be Jimmy and the others tangling with some creepy dark creatures," said B.E.N
"You mean the others on this planet?" said Rex turning on him. "But you just said you are alone for a hundred years?"
"I was, until about half an hour ago," said B.E.N.
"Let's go and help them," said Ven.
They began rushing through the jungle towards that they had the screams and there they found three people leaning against the boat with a futuristic sail.
Two of them were aliens, one was female with catlike features and was wearing an outfit similar to that of a ship captain judging from the way she was clutching her chest she was badly injured, the other hand doglike features and his clothing indicated that he was very rich and possibly well-educated. The third was a human boy of 15 years with brown hair which was formed into a ponytail and he was currently fending off Pirate Heartless with a pistol.
Immediately both he and Ven jumped in-between them and raised their weapons.
"We'll handle this," said Ven.
Immediately they began to engage the Pirates, who were swinging their cutlasses directly at them. Rex blocked a blade with his blade and then slammed a powerful palm right into its chest and immediately vanished. A Pirate tried to attack him from behind, but he immediately sensed this and quickly spun around and sliced through the Heartless with his sheathed sought. He was very grateful that that one year of training was not complete waste as he had mastered kung fu and was able to gain a few more abilities.
Ven was proving that he was indeed a Keyblade Master as he began slicing through the Pirates without even a second to rest. He entered things quickly by creating a very powerful tornado that sent them flying and then he spun his Keyblade around and it sliced right through them.
Once was all said and done they heard a clicking sound and saw that the boy was pointing his pistol directly at them.
"Who are you? Are you working with Silver?" he demanded.
"Is that how you were saying thank you to your rescuers?" said Rex.
"Jimmy, thank goodness you're all right," said B.E.N as he rushed over towards them frantically.
The boy looked at B.E.N. "You brought them here?"
"They brought themselves, they heard your screams and came rushing towards you," said B.E.N.
"Mister Hawkins, lecturer them out," said the ship captain. "I'm Captain Amelia of the RLS Legacy, but the title is very hollow considering that I have just lost my ship to no good pirates. This is Dr Delbert Doppler, he's an astronomer and the young man pointing a pistol at you is Jim Hawkins."
"My name is Ventus, though you can just call me Ven, and this is Rex Raccoon," said Ven. "And we mean you no harm. We saw you being attacked by Heartless and rushed over to see if we could help."
"And what are you doing on Treasure Planet?" Jim asked not lowering his pistol. "There's only one reason why you'd come here and that is get your hands on the treasure."
Ven and Rex looked at one another and then back to Jim.
"What treasure?" they asked.
Jim blinked. "You mean to tell me that you came all this way you don't know anything about any treasure."
"We're merely travellers and we stumbled upon this planet," said Ven calmly. "Besides if we were pirates we wouldn't have helped you just now would we?"
Jim's eyes turned to Amelia and she nodded. He then lowered his pistol, though he was still giving them a look indicating that he didn't quite trust them.
"What happened?" Ven asked.
"A mutiny," said Amelia angrily. "The ship's cook, John Silver, was in fact a pirate and he's been searching for this planet and we let him right to it. He used these dark creatures to take out the crew and shot us down on the planet surface."
"Their called Heartless," said Ven.
"Fitting name," said Jim.
Amelia winced and Delbert immediately tended to her wound. "Captain, we need to get you someplace safe is a contender that wound."
"We can go to my place," said B.E.N.
Treasure Planet: B.E.N's Hovel
B.E.N's place turned out to be some sort of cave with weird markings and covered in moss. Though considering the circumstances there was no time to be picky in the immediately placed Amelia down and Delbert began to attend her wounds.
Rex looked at Jim. "What is this treasure within hearing so much about?"
"There was this legendary pirate by the name of Nathaniel Flint, he radiated hundreds of ships stole the loot and disappeared without a trace before anyone could stop him," said Jim.
"I get it, you believe this planet is where he kept all his treasure," said Ven.
"We know its fact," said Jim. "We had this map that led straight to here, but unfortunately we lost it on the ship. We would have had if it weren't for a certain slimy troublemaker."
"What slimy troublemaker?" Rex asked.
Then suddenly appearing directly behind Jim was a jelly like creature with eyeballs. "His name is Morph and he is able to transform into anything. He also likes to make practical jokes which is why he left the map on the ship."
"So, the pirates have it?" said Ven.
"We don't know," said Jim. "In fact we got no clue whether treasure might be on the planet."
"Captain Flint was certainly a wily pirate," said B.E.N as he sat down on a rock. "I remember this one time…"
Jim's eyes widened as he turned to B.E.N. "Wait, you knew Captain Flint."
"Had a very nasty temper he did," B.E.N nodded.
"Wait, then you must know what the treasure its," said Jim.
"It's all a little fuzzy," said B.E.N with the wires the back of his head sparking. "Though I do r-remember… Treasure… Lots of treasure! Buried in the centroid-centroid of the mechanism!" They all backed away from B.E.N as it looked like he was going to short-circuit at any moment. "Then there was this big door that was opening and closing and opening and closing… And Captain Flint wanted to make sure nobody could get to his treasure so I helped him."
Then the back of his head began to spark violently and Jim was forced to slap him across the face to snap him out of it.
"Thanks for that," said B.E.N.
"Hang on, what about the rest?" Jim asked.
B.E.N shook his head. "I wish I could remember, but I literally lost my mind." He then turned around and pointed to the hole in the back of his head. "I somehow lost my primary memory circuit and without it I can't remember much or else I'll short-circuit."
"I give the feeling that this Flint was the one who took it?" said Rex.
"As a pirate, you wouldn't want anyone getting his hands on his treasure," said Ven.
"Speaking of pirates one has just shown himself," said Jim looking outside.
They immediately made their way to the entrance and found a choppy looking man with a mechanical arm, leg and I approaching them waving a white flag.
"I wish to parlay!" he called.
"Friend of yours?" Rex asked.
"That would be John Silver," said Jim narrowing his eyes.
"He no doubt wants to bargain for the map," Amelia winced.
"Captain," Delbert warned.
Jim's face lit up. "Which means he still believes we have it."
Rex and Ven accompanied Jim down the slope towards to meet with Silver.
"I see you've met a few new friends Jim Boy," said Silver gesturing to Rex and Ven.
"The name is Ventus and this is Rex," said Ven sternly.
"John Silver at your service," said Silver doffing his hat.
"You seem to be well mannered for a pirate," Rex noted.
"Not a bad man at heart," Silver dismissively.
"A greedy one though," Jim grumbled.
"Work if we play our cards right, we could both walk away from this as rich as Kings," said Sliver calmly. "Plus if we sell the map to a benefactor that I know of we could wall this world and call all the shots."
Rex narrowed his eyes. "Who is this benefactor? You wouldn't happen to be a rat, who is missing his tail, would he?"
Silver blinked. "Oh, you know him."
"He killed my father, injured my best friend and scarred me for life," said Rex counting off his fingers. "Plus I'm the one who sliced off his tail."
Sliver whistled. "The two of you seem to have issues and I will gladly help point you in the right direction, but sadly I have no idea where he is. Now back to the map…"
"No deal," said Jim.
Sliver narrowed his eye. "You still don't know how to pick your fights, do you boy? Now either I get that map by dawn tomorrow or so help me I'll use the ships cannons to blast you all to kingdom come!"
They then watched as he walked off.
"I think that includes the negotiations," said Rex.
Ven looked at Jim. "Nice guy."
It was soon night and Jim was still trying to come up with an idea to get them out of this mess.
"Without the map we're dead," he said looking up at the ship above them. He then looked at Silver's camp. "If we try to leave went dead. If we stay here…"
"We're dead. We're dead. We're dead. We're dead." said Morph.
Rex looked at Ven. "Can't you get us out of this? I mean you could deal with these pirates no problem, your Keyblade master."
Ven shook his head. "We'll number one, there is no meddling in the affairs of other worlds."
Rex shook his head. "But we've seen Heartless."
Ven shook his head. "Unfortunately there's no outside force controlling Silver's actions, he is doing everything independently. Rattus might have coaxed him into doing this with munny, but he's acting on his own."
"Well, clearly you guys could use some alone time so I'll slip out of the back door," said B.E.N.
That got their attention.
"Back door?" the three of them asked.
B.E.N began shifting a boulder which turned out to be a doorway of some kind that will build a massive network of machinery.
"You could say this planet has excellent ventilation," said B.E.N.
"What is all this stuff?" Jim asked stunned.
"You mean the miles and miles of machinery that runs through the entire planet?" B.E.N asked. "Not a clue."
"Looks like we found our way out," said Rex.
Treasure Planet: Sliver's Camp
Using the network of machinery they were able to locate a route that led to Sliver's camp and found that the pirate captain was fast asleep along with his crew.
"We do have a plan, right?" Rex asked.
"We sneak onto the Legacy, disable the laser cannons and bring back the map," said Jim.
"But how do we get there?" B.E.N asked.
"On that," Jim pointed towards a small ship tied down within the camp.
Treasure Planet: Legacy
It took some doing but they were able to get on board the Legacy on the ship they managed to take from Silver's camp.
"There are bound to be guards on board," said Rex.
"And we have to do this quickly and quietly," said Jim. "We need to find a map and disabled the laser cannons."
"I'm on it," said B.E.N and then walked off before anyone could stop them.
"Well, we're dead," said Rex.
"He might know what he's doing," said Ven, though in a doubtful voice.
They began making their way through the ship's hull searching for the map.
Ven looked at Jim. "So what would you out here?"
"I was looking for adventure," Jim shrugged. "I also want to help my Mum, we lost our place when pirates attacked, Sliver's lot. If I can just find that treasure I can make everything right."
Ven looked at him curiously. "Where's your father and all this?"
Jim didn't look at them. "He just took off and never came back."
Rex's closed his eye. "I lost my dad year ago."
Jim looked at him. "Then I don't know which one of us is more lucky?"
They eventually made their way into the hangar and Jim made his way to a pile of ropes and began to scrummage through them. He then pulled out a metal sphere and they quickly deduced that it was in fact the map.
"We've got it," said Jim.
Then suddenly alarms were sounding across the entire ship and they realise that it was B.E.N's doing.
"So much for stealth," said Rex.
Ven immediately sensed something. "Watch out?" he yelled shoving both Rex and Jim to the ground.
It was a good thing he did because a large scorpion claw nearly tore the two of them apart. They looked up and saw scorpion-like Heartless looking at them with the Heartless emblem on its chest. Immediately they drew their weapons and ready to face against the Heartless.
"I hope you're ready," said Ven.
The Heartless then jumped and its legs managed to stick towards the ceiling and it began moving towards them at an alarming speed. Ven quickly used the guard to block the attack from one of its claws and Jim then fired his pistol directly at it and Rex used a Blizzara spell freezing the Heartless is right claw.
Ven then immediately struck it with his Keyblade knocking it to the ground and then it probably got back up and began dashing towards them swinging its claws. They kept back through the ship's hull and Jim kept on firing his pistol, but then everything went dark preventing them from seeing the beast.
Eventually the lights came back on and they saw that the Heartless had vanished into thin air. They kept their eyes open for it, but then Rex felt a twinge of the back of his neck and quickly turned just in time to block the claw of the Heartless.
Then to make matters worse the gravity was turned off and began floating upwards and went straight through the grating above them. Thankfully the Heartless was having the same problem and Ven took full advantage of it. His feet pressed itself against the massed and he propelled himself down towards it and withdrew his Keyblade. He then went straight past of slicing right through its chest and that did the trick as a heart was now floating out of its body and soon vanished.
Then suddenly the gravity came back on and they fell face first onto the deck of the ship. Then emerging onto the deck was B.E.N covered in head to foot in wires.
"Laser cannons disabled!" B.E.N yelled. "That wasn't so tough."
None of them decided to comment.
Treasure Planet: B.E.N's Hovel
They eventually made their way back to B.E.N's hovel without any further incident and then made their way to Amelia and Delbert.
"I've got the map," said Jim excitedly.
However the shadow they were talking too turned out to be Silver, who immediately grabbed the map.
"Fine work, Jimbo. Fine work indeed," Sliver smiled.
To their horror they discovered that both Amelia and Delbert were tied down by pirates and gagged. Pirate Heartless then began to surround them leaving them trapped with no way out.
"Thanks for giving us the map," Sliver smiled. "I'm sure Rattus will take much joy in it, but not before we take all the treasure."
However, when Sliver tried access the map he discovered that he was unable to. He kept on altering his mechanical hand in order to access the map, but nothing he did succeeded. He then noticed the smirk on Jim's face and knew that he knew how to work the map.
"Open it," he said giving the matter back to Jim. He then pointed towards Amelia and Delbert. "Or else the Heartless will take their hearts."
With no other choice Jim began to access the map and immediately a holographic display of the map appeared around them. A few seconds later it became a single line that spanned through the jungle and a single pulse was running down the line.
Sliver smiled. "Let's move out boys."
Treasure Planet: Jungle
Soon they began following the line down through the jungle and as they did they know is that the pulse was getting stronger and faster. They soon landed and left Amelia and Delbert in the hands of another pirate began making their way through the jungle.
Sliver smiled broadly when they saw the pulses were now becoming more frequent indicating they were only a few feet away from the treasure.
"We've getting close lads!" he announced as his hand became a sword. "I smell treasure ahead."
However, when he cut through the trees all they found was an empty canyon with the light from the map just hitting nothing. Naturally Silver the pirates were furious by this and immediately turn to Jim
"What's going on Jimbo?" said Sliver angrily as the light entered back into the map.
Jim immediately tried to get the map working but it wouldn't budge an inch. "I don't know. I can't get it open."
"I suggest that you get that gizmo going again," Sliver advised.
"I think I found something," said Rex bending down to the ground. All their eyes turned to a hole in the ground which had similar markings to the map. "I think we're supposed to place the map here."
Jim immediately placed the map inside the slot and immediately the entire ground lit up like a Christmas tree. Then a holographic display emerged from the map and then they saw several lights converging towards them until eventually they formed a large gateway in front of them.
The Gateway revealed a beautiful castle with a small hearth raining down from the sky.
"Is that Radiant Garden?" Rex gasped.
"But that is halfway across the multi-verse," said Sliver rubbing his chin.
Ven then down and looked the map more closely. "I think the map is made of the same metal as a Keyblade though clearly not as powerful. The Keyblade is able to open gates and allow special passage for anyone travelling across the Worlds."
"A big door opening and closing," said Jim as he pressed on one the holographic buttons on the hollow display. Immediately the gateway closed and then opened up again to reveal Wasteland. Jim then took closer analysis over the holographic display look and each icon. "Let's see… Twilight Town…" a small smile appeared on his face. "Montressor Spaceport."
He pressed on a crescent-shaped marker and immediately the door open to reveal a crescent space structure with many ships coming in and out of it.
"So this is how Flint did it," said Jim as he kept on pressing button after button. "He used this porthole to roam the multi-verse stealing treasure."
"But where is he stashing all?" Sliver roared impatiently.
"Treasure…" said B.E.N clutching his head, "is buried in the…"
"Centroid of the mechanism," Jim finished and began to remember the mass machinery running through the planet. "What if… the entire planet is the mechanism. Then the treasure is buried right in the centre of this planet."
"The perfect hiding place," said Rex.
"And how blue blazes are we supposed to get there?" Sliver roared.
"By opening the right door," said Ven and then pressed down in the centre of the holographic display which resembled Treasure Planet.
Immediately the gateway opened and they carefully began to make their way through one by one.
Treasure planet: Centroid of the Mechanism
When the Exeter the portal what they saw took their breath away as they were staring at the greatest amount of treasure in the history of the multi-verse. There was growing more treasure here than they would be in the Cave of Wonders in Agrabah.
"The loot of 1000 worlds," Sliver stared in awe.
Immediately the pirates interest diverted away from Rex and the others and they began taking as much treasure as their arms could carry. Even Sliver was distracted and then forgotten them completely.
"This is all seeming very familiar, but I can't remember why," said B.E.N scratching his head.
Jim and then noticed a ship buried within the treasure and it still looked as if it was in flying condition. It also had its own amount of treasure on board and he had an idea.
"Let's get going," said Jim gesturing them towards the ship. "We're getting out of here and were not leaving empty-handed."
They made their way towards the ship and began to climb on board and B.E.N was still having a nasty feeling at the back of his mind.
"I can't tell you how frustrating it is, because there's something nagging at the back of my mind," said B.E.N.
Then they gasped the moment they came on board.
"Captain Flint, Jim gasped.
"What's left of him," said Rex.
Sitting on a large pile of gold was the skeleton of a dead alien in a pirate captain uniform, who was no doubt Nathaniel Flint.
"Looks like you want to die next his gold," said Ven his arms.
B.E.N rubbed the back of his head. "It's so odd. I definitely remember something horrible that Flint didn't want anyone else to know, but I just can't remember what it was." Jim then noticed something in Flint's hand and ripped his fingers off in order to get it. "Oh, a mind is a terrible thing to lose!"
Rex and Ven made their way over to Jim and looked at the thing in his hand. They then looked back at B.E.N, who now had his back towards them. That's when they realise that in their hand was a primary memory circuit.
"B.E.N, I think I just found your mind," said Jim.
He then immediately grabbed the back of B.E.N and held out the primary memory circuit towards the wires sticking out of B.E.N's head. Immediately the wires attach themselves to the memory circuit and B.E.N's eyes immediately turned blue.
"Guys, you know I was just think," said B.E.N and then his eyes widened. "It's all coming back to me! Oh, my memories! Right up to the point where Flint pulled out my memory circuit so I could not tell anyone about his booby-trap!"
That got their attention immediately they heard explosions above them.
"Speaking of which," said B.E.N horrified. They looked up and immediately saw a power conduit above them had just exploded. "Flint wanted to make sure that nobody could steal his treasure so he raked this whole planet to blow higher than a supernova!"
Then the power conduit fell directly on top of the treasure and the ground became very uneven. The treasure began to flow down into a large crevice into molten lava and some of the pirates were caught into it. While the others were running away from the larger beams that were tearing their way through the treasure and disintegrating anything they come in contact with.
"You're very paranoid, wasn't he?" said Ven.
"We need to get out of here," said Rex.
Jim looked towards the ship controls. "I might be able to rig this ship to fly. B.E.N, go and find the Captain and Doc and get them out of here safely! If were not back there in five minutes leave without me."
"If need be I can open a portal and transport us out of this mess," said Rex.
"Good luck!" said B.E.N and jumped off the ship.
Sliver was completely horrified as the treasure began to spill into the crevice and there was nothing he could do to stop it. He then noticed that the rest of his pirates were rushing out of the portal as quickly as they could.
"Come back you cowards!" he roared.
It was then that he noticed that Flint's ship was about to take off and with his mechanical eye he saw that Jim and the others were trying to get the ship operational.
On Flint's ship, they were finally able to get the engines operational.
"Looks like were out of here," said Jim.
"Ah, Jimbo," said a voice behind them. They turned and found that Silver had jumped on board. "Very slick you to take this boat and its link with you."
Immediately Rex and the others drew their weapons and aimed directly at Silver.
"There's no way you can beat all three of us," said Ven.
Sliver just narrowed his eyes at them.
Then suddenly a massive hand grabbed the ship knocking them off their feet. They turned and saw a massive Heartless had emerged from the crevice made completely of gold. Its eyes were bright yellow and it was clear that it was in fact a pureblood since they could not see the emblem on its body.
"What is that thing?" Jim yelled.
"It must be Flint's heartless," Ven gasped. "All that greed and fear over his treasure must've turned him into this. Is not going allow anyone to escape his clutches."
"Looks like we got a fighting hands then," said Sliver as he drew his blade.
There was no time to fight over petty squabbles as the Heartless was trying to destroy the ship they were riding on. It even slammed one of its golden fist right towards them, but Rex quickly produced another Refleara spell protecting them and reflecting the damage back up on it.
Ven then jumped onto its arm and began running across it swinging his blade in the process. Jim and Sliver distracted it with their pistols allowing Ven to slam his Keyblade right onto its head. Rex then fired a Fira spell hitting it in one of its eyes causing it to groaning pain and it immediately tossed Ven off its body.
It then slammed a very powerful golden fist onto the deck of the ship, it was so much impact that Jim was knocked off he barely managed to grab hold of the side with his hand. Sliver was picking himself up and saw a large amount of treasure pouring out of the side and then he saw Jim losing his grip.
He was conflicted when I was saving the treasure or Jim and then he made the most difficult decision in his entire life. He immediately rushed over towards Jim and grabbed him just before he lost his grip and then pulled him back onto the deck.
The Heartless was about to attack again, but then changes of light began to launch from the tip of Rex's sheathed blade as he used a bind spell. While the Heartless with a mobilised, Ven took this as his chance and jumped into the air and began spinning like a drill and pierced right through the Heartless.
The Heartless' eyes widened and the gold began to fall from its body and began to topple over towards them. They barely had enough time to jump to safety onto a metal ledge when the Heartless and ship entered into the molten lava below them.
Treasure Planet: Jungle
They eventually managed to exit the portal just in time as the corporately much collapsed in on itself.
Jim then stared at Silver in shock. "Sliver, you gave up the—"
"Just a life old obsession, Jim. I'll get over it," said Sliver dismissively.
"Let's hope you'll get the chance," said Rex.
At that precise moment the Legacy came flying down towards them with Amelia, Delbert and B.E.N on board. Due to her injuries, Delbert was forced to pilot the ship, with Amelia yelling out instructions in his ear, while B.E.N took on the role of navigator.
"We need to hurry people," said B.E.N frantically. "We've got exactly 2 minutes and 34 seconds before planet's destruction."
They didn't waste any time and immediately jumped onto the ship.
Once they were on board Amelia looked at B.E.N. "Take us out of here metal man."
"Aye, Captain," said B.E.N pushing down onto the controls.
Sliver immediately approached Amelia and doffed his hat. "Captain, you just dropped from the heavens and the neck of—"
"Save your claptrap for the judge, Sliver," said Amelia narrowing her eyes.
Sliver merely chuckled nervously.
For brief moment it looked like they were going to get away from the planet's destruction, but then a piece of rubble struck one of the sola sails destroying it and immediately they lost a large amount of power.
"We've lost the mainsail, Captain," said B.E.N reading the readings of the ship's computer. "Thrusters are only a 30% capacity."
Delbert's eyes widened. "30%? That means…" He looked at Amelia, "we'll never clear the planet's destruction in time."
Jim looked back at the portal and suddenly an idea cropped into his mind.
"We've got a turnaround," he said.
"I beg your pardon?" said Rex.
"There's a portal back there, it can get us out of here," said Jim.
"Pardon me Jim, but isn't that portal opens onto raging inferno?" Delbert yelled.
"Yes, which is why we need to change a different door," said Jim.
"And how do you plan to get there?" Amelia asked. "There'll be no time for one of us to jump down access the map and jumped back onto the ship before the planet explodes."
"I can make it," said Ven as he made his way to the side of the ship. "Just make sure you carry on towards the portal."
"One minute, 29 seconds to planet's destruction!" B.E.N cried.
"What have we got to lose?" Rex asked.
Amelia clearly was reluctant but she nodded in agreement.
Ven then summoned his Keyblade and spun it towards the edge of the ship and immediately transformed into his glider. He then quickly jumped on top of it and began to fly around the ship.
"Whatever you do keep making your way to the portal," said Ven before he took off towards the portal.
"Good luck," said Rex.
Ven was currently racing across the planet as it was beginning to fall apart. Metal columns kept on cropping out of the ground as well as columns of fire which made it difficult to trespass. Nevertheless he kept on flying towards the portal until eventually managed to reach it with the Legacy just close behind him.
He immediately pressed his finger on the button of Montressor Spaceport and immediately the gateway changed. He waited until the last second as the ship into the portal and then turn towards the map.
Treasure Planet: Montressor Spaceport
The doorway immediately opened just off the shore of Montressor Spaceport and about five seconds after the ship exited the portal there was a huge explosion. Everyone on the ship cheered as Ven returned and gave a true hero's welcome.
Amelia then approached Jim with a small smile on her face. "Unorthodox, but ludicrously effective. I would be proud to recommend you to the Interstellar Academy, they could use a man like you."
Delbert smiled Jim. "When your mother hears about this, of course play the life-threatening parts."
Rex and Ven looked at Sliver, who merely just stood there in the background.
"You're going to be leaving aren't you?" Rex assumed.
"Aye, don't fancy myself in a jail cell," Silver shrugged and looked at the two of them. "You're not going to stop me?"
"You saved Jim's life and you are not a bad man asked," said Ven folding his arms. "Besides were not supposed to meddle in the affairs of other worlds."
Sliver smiled at them. "In that case, you mind giving this to Jimboy." He then reached into his pocket and pulled out some gold and jewels. "I have a feeling that his ma'am is going to need this."
Ven took the gold and jewels and then watched as Sliver made his way to below deck. A few seconds later Jim joined the two of them noticing that Silver was gone.
"Where's Silver?" Jim asked.
"Gone," said Ven and then gave Jim the gold and jewels. "He wanted me to give you this."
Jim looked at the treasure now in in his hands. "That all pirate." He then looked at Ven and Rex. "I take it you too will be moving off now."
Ven nodded. "We need to get this to a safe place," he said holding out the map much to everyone's surprise. "This map seems to be able to link to other worlds, I imagine that's why Rattus wanted it."
"Easy access," said Rex folding his arms. "He would been able to attack multiple worlds."
"He won't now," said Ven he then looked at Jim. "You all right?"
"You know when I first stepped onto this boat I would have joined Sliver," said Jim as he looked over the bow and smiled as he saw Sliver flying away in a longboat. "That he taught me to see over my horizons and I see a future in it."
Ven smiled. "Then I wish you the best of luck."
"Take care of yourself, Jim," said Rex.
Rex then promptly drew out his blade and opened a portal and then both he and Ven entered into it.
