I don't own Kingdom Hearts or Injustice. They each belong to Disney, Square Enix, DC Comics, WB games, and Netherrealm studios. And here is my longest chapter yet. I doubt the future chapters will be as long but who knows until then...

Anyways before we begin, let's reply to some reviews!

foxchick1: Yes, yes she is. And I'm betting we'll see her again in the cannon too.

Guest: Yes, he would be. That's Sora for you. Hope you enjoy what's to come!

edboy4926: Thank you! No, they're talking about Earth in general.

Private Ripper: Here you go!

speedster101: Really? Not even the one for the iPhone? Story mode's on there too and it's free... I think. It's been awhile and I mostly play it on the PS4 but if you don't have time for that then they try looking it up on youtube. It's probably has many videos about they story mode. But to answer you're questions, Kara is being manipulating her. Right now, she think Batman's a bad guy and her cousin's a saint. But she eventually wises up. Yeah, said to say I'm not planning of doing team attacks other than attraction flow. Sorry. But Sora does still have his heartbinders and we'll see allot from those.

Soulofnone911: Yeah, they're more active in this than KH3.

coreygriffin96: Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it. I plan on making everyone as true to their cannon as possible. Hopefully, it stay's that way.

Guest: He will be. His friends are his power!

Juxshoa: You'll find out as the story goes through. For both Ava and Maleficent's reasons. Pete's here on Maleficent's orders. They still want the box though... I'll leave it at that...

keybladelight: Most likely, since Sora's the main character in this. Interesting ideas though. Can't say what I'll have planned but you'll see. This world has Disney, but it doesn't have Kingdom Heart or Final Fantasy for obvious reason. So, fangirls don't know about Riku... yet...

SW11037: He might... not sure what'd I do for it but maybe...

With that out of the way, here's chapter 3!


Chapter 3: The Invasion

WORLD: THE MYSTERIOUS TOWER

The Guardians of Light and their friends all arrived to the home of the King's Teacher, Master Yen Sid. They all stood before the former Keyblade Master as the current generation of Keyblade Masters, Aqua, Mickey, and Riku explained what had happened with Sora. Yen Sid stroked his beard, "I see... Sora has misused the power of waking and know his current whereabouts are unknown."

"But, Master, " Roxas spoke up, "We know Sora's alive. I still feel the connection that I had with him when I was his Nobody. Just as Xion knew Kairi was okay."

"If that's the case, then you probably, right..." Yen Sid nodded as he smiled, "Sora has never been one to die easily."

"We were hoping you might know where to start looking, Master." Aqua asked. Yen Sid closed his eyes as he gave it some thought, "The stars can tell me many things... however, his where about is, I could not say..."

"There must be some idea you could tell us. We can't just leave Sora in God only knows where." Mickey hoped. Yen Sid answered, "Perhaps, you should ask the princess where she was before Sora recklessly saved her."

Everyone turned to Kairi, as she sighed, "It's not much... I was out most of the time, however... I felt like I've been lying on the floor. I kept hearing voices of people surrounding me. I... I think they wanted to help me... but that's it. That's when Sora found me..."

"So... Sora's on another world then?" Lea stated. Yen Sid shook head, "It can't just be any world... it was the case I would likely sensed it."

"Is there anything else?" Riku wondered. Kairi gave it some thought, "Well... this world felt like very similar to places like Traverse Town and Twilight Town. In a place neither in the light or dark. More like Twilight."

"So, that's something so let's scoop out those worlds. We can check out Twilight Town." Hayner stated. Xion sighed, "Except if he was on Twilight Town we would have heard something by now. With Mr. McDuck and Little Chief there."

"And he couldn't have ended up in Traverse Town because during our Mark of Mastery... the worlds that fell have been restored that restored. Sora and I unlocked all seven sleeping keyholes." Riku pointed out. Kairi continued, "There is one more thing... this world... it's felt like it's been surrounded by darkness for a long time yet not fallen to the Heartless. It was brought back to the light only very recently as it's..."

"...on the road to dawn." Riku realized, "That's new..."

"Actually... it sounds very familiar..." A new voice spoke. Everyone was shocked by this, Donald looked around, "Who said that?"

"I did!" Everyone turned around to see Chirithy waving and startling Donald. Most of the group stared at the cat-like creature as Isa wondered, "Okay... I've been working for Xehanort for a long time and I don't ever recall him ever mentioning something like this."

"Oh, that's just Chirithy." Ven spoke up. Roxas turned to him, "Chirthy?" Terra explained, "Apparently, Chirthy has been friends long before we met." Aqua smiled, "And we just had to take him because it's so cute!"

"Where can we get one?" Xion beamed. Naminé giggled, "I want one too!"

"Um... guys... can we focus here?" Kairi told them as she resisted the temptation to squeal as well, "You said you know where Sora is?" Chirthy nodded, "Yes, as some of you may know for the past years, I've been guiding hearts through the Final World."

"Oh, you mean the world Sora ended up when we failed to stop Master Xehanort the first time." Goofy remembered. Chirthy nodded, "Most people die when both their heart and body perish but some persist and end up there. Sora was being held back by a thread... someone who refused to let him go..."

"By me..." Kairi smiled sadly. Chirthy nodded, "Yes... however those who don't show up there have either passed on to the afterlife or are clinging on the world they came from. However... what you just describe means Sora could have ended up in one other place..."

"Where?" Roxas wondered. Chirthy replied, "First, I have to take you back to the beginning... as you already know Keyblades were modeled after the X-blade... the man he discovered this... while his true name was never known... he was simple called the Master of Masters. He was the one who discovered Kingdom Hearts and it's counterpart. The Master of Masters studied the X-blade and learned to extract Keyblades from people's hearts as a result. He then took on six apprentices. They're names were Ira, Aced, Gula, Invi, Ava, and Luxu. They soon became a group called the Foretellers. Five out of the six each had their union of Keyblade Wielders to train and guide."

"During their training, the Master of Masters and his apprentices discovered something. A Parallel World..." Chirthy explained. Kairi wondered, "A Parallel World?" Riku recalled, "That sounds familiar... during the Mark of Mastery... Sora and I were separated on two different versions of Traverse Town..."

"Oh, yeah... and back on Toy Box when Master Xehanort's younger version of himself created to versions of that world..." Goofy recalled. Chirthy nodded, "Yes, but unlike those worlds... this world took place in an entirety different dimension. It was more of a Parallel Universe if anything. With it's own worlds and own set of rules. In fact, the World Order isn't really a problem there at all."

"Whoa!" Everyone gasped. Chirithy nodded, "Yes, and what really interested the Master was the World we visited, the one that was very much like ours, hasn't separate. Sure there were similar places and events that happened like ancient Greece and the coming of Christ just to name a few but they had already different worlds. Our world was still one place until the first Keyblade War. So, the Master and his apprentices often visited their and took notes..."

"Why's that?" Mickey wondered. Chirthy answered, "Well... the master had the power to see into the future and knew of the coming Keyblade War and what was to come because of it." Riku asked, "Did he let his apprentices know about the coming war?"

"He did. Before he disappeared, he gave them a Book of Prophecies to five of them and each a specific role. They tried to do what they thought was right to stop the Keyblade War but they slowly began to suspect a traitor and turned on each other which started said war because..." Chirthy explained. Kairi recalled her grandmother's story, "...they wanted the light for themselves and darkness was born in their hearts."

"Yeah..." Chirthy nodded sadly. Terra walked up, "What about that world... the parallel world?" Chirthy nodded, "Right... so that whole point by traveling to the parallel world was to see if other Keyblade Wielders could travel to the parallel world to ensure light would survive the conflict."

"So, it worked... so, you think Sora might be on this... Earth?" Riku assumed. Chirthy nodded, "It has to be... it's likely our universes are still connect much like how are worlds are."

"Well, alright. We go to Earth, fine Sora, and be back home before it's time for Sea-Salt Ice Cream." Axel smirked. Kairi nodded, "Let's go!" Chirthy jumped and waved, "Hold on! It's not so simple to get there!"

"What do you mean?" Roxas asked. Yen Sid spoke up, "I'm afraid Chirthy's correct... if what it says is true then getting is no simple task. As you know, every world is walled off from the next, preventing travel between them. The same is said for parallel universe but with a much stronger wall. In the past, you could bridge these gaps because the walls were broken, or because you could open special Lanes with your Keyblades. However, this wall was so strong not even the Heartless can get through brute force."

"But the has to be a way... I mean... the Foretellers could do it..." Kairi looked desperate. Riku gave it a moment of thought before his eyes light up, "Xehanort's Keyblade..."

"Huh?" Kairi turned to Riku, "What is it?"

"Well... what if it takes a certain kind of Keyblade to get to this universe... like how Mickey's Kingdom Key D or Keyblade of Darkness could allow us to safely get to the Realm of Darkness without needing the power of darkness." Riku pointed out. Aqua saw where he was getting at, "And like the Master Keyblade could seal away the Land of Departure and unlock it. No other Keyblade could do that!"

"Exactly, what if Master Xehanort... instead of killing her... he sent her to this Parallel World on mistake." Riku pointed out. Goofy nodded, "So, ya think Master Xehanort's Keyblade could get to Earth."

"That is a likely theory... Xehanort's Keyblade is the oldest Keyblade of Existence..." Yen Sid stroked his beard. Terra realized, "With Xehanort gone... there's only one place it could have ended up... the Keyblade Graveyard."

"But... but... that's like finding a needle in a haystack. It could take years just to find it!" Aqua pointed out. Pence pointed out, "It's the only lead we got."

"Then we better start looking." Kairi said looking determined. Ven turned to Chirthy, "Is there an easier way of getting there?" Chirthy thought, "Maybe... but... it's a long shot."

"What is it?" Olette wondered. Chirthy turned to them, "Before the War, one of the Foretellers named Ava created a door, one lead to the that parallel world. Her role was to avoid the imminent battles in favor of gathering Keyblade wielders, regardless of their Unions, to be part of a separate faction called the Dandelions, who would venture to another world in order to ensure the survival of light. She used the door to gather as much information as she could to make sure her Dandelions would survive the conflict."

"So, where's the door now?" Isa wondered. Chirthy replied, "You're not gonna like this... when the world fell to darkness, so did the door..." Everyone stared at the Chirthy when they realized, Donald shook his head, "Oh no... don't tell me..."

"It's lost... somewhere in the Realm of Darkness." Chirthy stated. Everyone groaned, Chirthy added, "And even if we had the door, it'd still be hard to open... she made it so not just everyone could get through... so place a special spell on it... but if we can figure out that spell we should be able to open it. I'm certain she left a clue on it."

"Okay, so our options are either journey to a creepy world to find a creepy key or journey to a creepy realm to find a door that we have no idea how to open." Axel stated. Mickey turned to the blue hair woman, "Aqua, you've been in the Realm of Darkness longer than anyone, did you find anything like that?"

"I only seen two doors there. The door that lead to your Keyblade and the Door to Darkness." Aqua shook her head sadly. Everyone sighed, as Ven turned to Chirthy, "How is that any easier? "

"Well... if we had the door, it takes a Chirthy to read the clue and with several Keyblade Masters here, solving it should be a snap. I told you it was still a long shot." Chirthy answered. Master Yen Sid eyes narrowed, "Then we must make haste if we are to have any chance of rescuing Sora. Mickey, you'll take a team of Guardians to the Realm of Darkness to find that door. Riku, you'll take a team of Guardians to the Keyblade Graveyard to track down Xehanort's Keyblade."

"Right, and whoever, finds the door or Keyblade first will concat the others and we'll regroup and figure out where to go from there." Riku nodded. Mickey turned to the others, "I know where asking a lot from you. You've each gone beyond the line of duty to save the worlds but for those who want to wait here... no one will blame you..."

Everyone's eyes narrowed as everyone took a step forward. Everyone wanted to help, Aqua was the first to speak, "I'll go with you to the Realm of Darkness to find that door." This made Terra and Ven gasp, the former stated, "Aqua... you've been trapped the Realm of Darkness for over 10 years, you sure you want to do this?"

"Yes... it's because of Sora... I was able to reunite with you two again... I owe him that much." Aqua nodded with determination. Axel then spoke up, "We'll go too... " Everyone turned to see Isa, Roxas, and Xion stood with him as he continued, "We've been there back in the first Organization... we know how to handle ourselves there too."

"I have a lot to make up for. This could be my chance." Isa added. Mickey nodded, "Thank you."

"As much I want to be with Aqua... I'll go with Riku... My Lingering Will has been there just as long as Aqua's been the realm." Terra stated. Riku nodded in apparition, before turning to Hayner, Pence, and Olette, "You three wouldn't stand a chance in the Realm of Darkness, you safer if you came with me."

"That's fair." Pence nodded. Hayner told him, "Just tell us what to look for." Naminé spoke up, "I don't have any weapons so, I'll go with Riku to the Keyblade Graveyard."

"I'll go too!" Ven quickly spoke up. Everyone turned to Ven in shock as Ven noticed the stares as he sheepishly stated, "Well... there could be some left over Heartless or Nobodies there... and Terra and Riku are the only one of the groups who can fight against them. They could use another Keyblade." Naminé smiled in response. Donald and Goofy gave each other a smirk as they knew the real reason Ventus wanted to go and laughed quietly before turning to Riku. Donald told Riku, "Goofy and I are with you."

"That's right! It's not like we've got protection from the darkness anyways." Goofy agreed. Kairi smiled, "Okay... then I'll go with Mickey in the Realm of Darkness."

"Actually, Kairi... if you came with us, you'd practically be a beacon for the Heartless." Mickey pointed out. Kairi looked upset but kept her calm, "Um... okay... that's fine... I'll go with Riku then..."

"Actually... I think your better off right here..." Riku replied. Kairi looked at everyone who gave small nods in agreement, "Wait... why do you all want me to stay here?" Everyone looked like they were trying to avoid the question. That's when it hit her, she glared at them, "Wait a minute... this is because I got kidnapped again, isn't it?!"

"Wha... NO!" Axel began laughed nervously, "It's just... um..." Roxas quickly stated, "We need someone to look after the worlds, while we look for Sora!" Kairi's eyes narrowed, "Really?" Roxas quickly nudged Mickey, "Oh... right! Maleficent and Pete are still out there! As well as that Black Box they're after!"

"Your just saying that because it's currently the safest job." Kairi stated. Riku sighed, "Kairi... I know you want to find Sora just as much as we do but..." She turned to him with tears in her eyes, "No you don't! Sora's only in this situation because I couldn't stop Xemnas from taking me and have Xehanort sent me to a parallel world. I couldn't protect him this time..."

"You did all you could... we all would have been consumed by that Lech Heartless if you hadn't held Sora from dying as well. Just because you got kidnapped again doesn't mean you're useless." Riku reassured her as she wiped the tears from her eyes, "Besides, this maybe one of Sora's friends might have another idea of how to bring Sora back."

"Yeah, you could revisit some of the worlds we've been to recently." Goofy smiled. Xion nodded, "Yeah, and it's a good way to find the strength you need to help him." Kairi thought about it, "Well... alright..." She then told them, "But you guys better tell me the first thing we have a lead of finding Sora."

"We will. We know how much you two care about each other." Mickey smiled. Donald smirked, "Yeah, you're all he thinks about..." Kairi smiled, "Really?!"

"He wouldn't have agreed to share that Paopu fruit with you if he didn't." Riku stated making Kairi blush as he joked, "That's right... I saw what you two did when I needed some time alone... the real question is why you didn't kiss yet..."

"I... well... you see..." Kairi tried to explain, "I kissed him!" Axel smirked, "Yeah, on the check! Pretty sure he meant on the lips."

Everyone laughed in amusement as her cheeks turned as red as her hair. Yen Sid cleared his throat, "Back to the main topic... Then it would appear everything is settled. Riku will take Ventus, Terra, Donald, Goofy, Hayner, Pence, Olette, Chirthy, and Naminé to the Keyblade to search for Master Xehanort's Keyblade. Mickey will take Aqua, Lea, Isa, Roxas, and Xion to the Realm of Darkness to search for Ava's door to the parallel world. Kairi will use the Gummi Ship to revisit the worlds in hopes of finding any other way to search for Sora. Are you ready?"

Everyone turned to Master Yen Sid and nodded. He replied, "Then may your hearts be your guiding key." Everyone nodded as everyone went to prepare to leave, Kairi smiled, "Wish me luck..." Riku nodded as Kairi left. When she was out of earshot, Riku turned to Yen Sid, "I think Kairi's capable of handling the Heartless and Pete on her own and I do think it's currently the safest place to be for her but... Maleficent... she's been quiet along with Pete. What happens if Kairi runs into her?"

"I don't believe Kairi will have to worry about Maleficent or Pete... both have gone quiet after the Keyblade War... but that's what really concerns me..." Yen Sid replied, "What happened to them while we were dealing with Xehanort?"


Meanwhile, from a distance, Invi watch Kairi enter the Gummiship. She quietly examined her before a Corridor of Darkness appeared behind her and Luxu stepped out as he smirked, "Well, it looks like our Guardians are on the move... Can't say I'm surprised."

"That girl... she's the one Sora risked his life for?" Invi asked. Xigbar nodded, "Yeah!" She turned to her, "Her light... it's unlike anything I've ever seen."

"Oh, that's right... you missed some things after the first Keyblade War." Luxu realized, "Well... after you're war. The X-Blade was broken into 20 pieces. 7 of light and 13 of darkness. It's currently unknown what happened to the 13 pieces but the 7 lights joined with the hearts of 7 maidens. They're called the 7 Princesses of Hearts and they pass down their role with their time is done to a New 7 Hearts. Kairi's been a member of both groups."

"So, her heart is pure." Invi realized, "A lot has changed since the War."

"You have no idea..." Xigbar smirked. Invi continued, "So, Sora and the Princess... they have feelings for each other..."

"Yeah, it's why the old coot stuck her down. To provoke Sora and the others into attacking him when he needed just one more key." He answered. Invi turned him, "I see... but she was sent on the parallel World instead. Then Sora used to Power of Waking to get her out but trapping himself there not know what would become of him. I have to admire the boy's courage."

"I don't admire one guy leaping into danger when it means someone else might have to jump in and save him. They're all just lining up to lose out. Dooming others to take the fall with up." Luxu replied, "Which is the exact situation Sora is in. Now, the others are risking their lives to save him."

"And yet, they're the ones who will stand in the way of the Master's plan?" Invi asked. Luxu nodded, "Yeah... don't believe me. Why don't you find out for yourself."

"What are you suggesting?" Invi wondered. Xigbar turned to her, "Our Keyblades are the only Keyblades that can enter that world. So, go. Test Sora's strength."

"Why me?" Invi wondered. Xigbar turned to her, "Because... is that you're role the Master gave ya? The others are still debating what to do with the kiddo... It's up to you to keep the gang together. Who am I to get in the way of that?" Invi thought about it before summoning her Keyblade. Light swirled around it as it opened a portal to the other Earth. As she entered the portal she recalled the day the Master of Masters gave Invi her role...


WORLD: DAYBREAK TOWN

"So, to sum it up." The Master of Masters placed a hand on her shoulder many eons ago, "I'll need you to observe the others. Easy breezy."

A-all right." Invi nodded. The Master then patted her shoulder, "As I said, Ira may have to take over for me... But don't be shy. Just be fair."

"And do not be afraid to speak up!" He told her as he circled around the snake mask woman, "Even though I say 'observe,' you'll need to be the mediator; make sure people get along."

"I understand, but... without you or Luxu, to form and maintain our own Unions is... It's a little unnerving, to be honest." Invi admitted. The Master waved his hands, "Oh, come on. Lighten up a little! Maybe I'll never disappear." He then gasped, "Wait. Do you want me to go?"

"What?! N-no! Of course not!" Invi replied while looking apologetic. The Master chuckled as he rubbed her head, "I was just kidding!" She sighed in relief, "Oh... I see..."

"Look, I get that change is hard for everyone. But things need to keep moving forward. And you need to keep up. Otherwise, you'll just get left behind all alone." The Master of Masters told her as stared out the stain glass window. He turned back to face her, "Now that you know what the future holds , Invi, what does your heart say?"

"'May your heart be your guiding key.'" The Master chuckled, "I say it all the time; you ultimately need to do what your heart think is right." Invi smiled and nodded, "Right."


WORLD: EARTH

Back in the present day, Black Canary finished explaining what they had learned in Slaughter Swamp, "...I know it's hard to believe but it's true. Sora's from a world where Disney Characters are real. The Society has teamed up with Pete and Maleficent and the monsters they're controlling... the Heartless... it's unlike anything we've ever seen."

"And Sora's got selfies of some of the Disney Characters he's with met." Harley added as she spun around in her chair. Sora offered, "I could show you if you like."

Bruce thought about this as Oliver nodded, "We know it's crazy..." Bruce stated, "I believe you." This shocked everyone in the room as Bruce continued, "Before Metropolis several members of the Justice League were sent to another dimension to an Earth based off the comic book series, 'the Justice Guild of America.'"

"Dimension?" Sora wondered. Green Arrow explained, "He means parallel world." Sora nodded, "Oh... I get it."

"So, why have timelines based on an old comic series and Disney." Green Arrow replied. Bruce answered, "The writers might have been psychically tuned in to their World during flashes of 'inspiration' for the JGA, the writers for all the Disney films might have had a similar experience."

"So... does that mean I'm on a parallel world." Sora wondered. Black Canary replied, "It would explain allot..." Sora sighed, "Guess getting back home is going to be harder than I thought..."

"Actually, that parts not the problem..." Bruce told him making the bow confused, Green Arrow explained, "I'm from parallel world too... Bruce found a way to travel to them..." Sora turned the billionaire, "Really?"

He then walked over to a device, as he replied, "To defeat Superman and those who aided him, I used inter-dimensional transit to bring the Justice League from another Earth where the bomb never went off and Lois never died. We only managed to save this World with their help and their Superman."

"...and before then our Green Arrow was murdered by Superman and I was left a widow with a kid on the way. So, a friend of ours brought me to a world where Green Arrow lost me..." Black Canary joined in. Green Arrow held her hand, "...and we been together ever since and we raised our son together. We came back to help our friends."

"Oh, that's great. I'm glad it all worked out." Sora smiled before he turned to Bruce, "So... we could use this device to get me back home." Bruce replied, "We would need to figure out the exact timeline you're from... it'll take some time but yes. Once we have enough information... we should have be able to send you back along. But first we need to deal with Maleficent, Pete... and those Heartless..."

"Right... I can't leave until we stop them." Sora's eyes narrowed. Bruce replied, "Other that what you've already told us... is there anyway to stop them." Sora answered, "Well... the Heartless hold great fear of the Keyblade. It's the only way that can destroy and free the hearts they consume."

"Keyblade? The weapon you carry?" Harley asked. Sora nodded as he summoned the Keyblade to show it. Black Canary wondered, "So, what's to stop someone from taking it."

Sora smiled as he offered to hand her the blade, Dinah took it and gave it a swing as it disappeared and reappeared in his hands. Dinah smiled, "Figures as much..."

"Yeah, Keyblades can be a bit picky about their owners." Sora nodded. Green Arrow replied, "So... the Heartless... what's to stop them from consuming our world?"

"We need to find this world's Keyhole." Sora replied, "If the Heartless get to it, they'll consume it's heart along with everyone on it. But if we can get to it first, I can seal it with my Keyblade so they can't get to it. It wouldn't get rid of the Heartless because as long as single person has darkness in their hearts, the Heartless will continue to be trouble."

"But it'll give Earth a fighting chance... if this keyhole is here, Brother Eye will find it." Bruce replied. Black Canary thought, "Maybe we can have Dr. Fate look into as well."

"Until we find the Keyhole, the best chances of stopping the Heartless is to stop Maleficent. And Grodd will likely know where she's hiding." Bruce stated, "Our best chance to stop Grodd is a preemptive strike."

"That sounds more military than vigilante. You try calling the Army?" Green Arrow asked. Bruce shook his head, "There is no Army...not yet. To break up the Regime, we had to start from the ground up."

"So...what? Us four extradite Grodd from under his entire gorilla and Heartless army?!" Green Arrow asked. Bruce correct, "Three. I need Sora here." Sora looked to him in confusion, "Huh?"

"If Brother Eye finds the Keyhole, I need you here so can use the Keyblade to seal it..." Bruce replied. Sora asked, "How'd you know my Keyblade could seal the Keyhole."

"...it's not that hard to figure out." Bruce answered. He then turned back to Green Arrow, "As for the army, Grodd's their Alpha. Take him down and the others will submit. But be wary of running into other members of the Society. They're more coordinated than we knew."

"Well then... Next stop, Gorilla City." Black Canary nodded. Green Arrow sighed, "Guess I'd better call the sitter. Mommy and Daddy are coming home late." He then turned and made his way to the back of the let to make the call. Sora spoke up, "But what about the Heartless... there not going to care if you have Grodd or not."

"It's alright, Sora. Once we have Grodd we'll get out of their before they even notice." She reassured him. Bruce also looked concerned, "If... this is more than you and Ollie are comfortable with, Dinah, I'll have Blue Beetle and Firestorm take over."

"No. We can do this." Black Canary told him. Bruce pointed out, "You've been out of the fight for a long time. You have a family." She answered, "You're family, too, Bruce. I couldn't be there to finish the fight against Superman. I'm DAMN sure finishing THIS one."

"Dinah! Language!" Harley told her as she covered Sora's eyes. He groaned, upset he was still being treated like a child. Black Canary smiled sheepishly, "Oh, right... sorry."

"It's fine... just stop treating me like a kid and we'll call it even. I'm 16 for goodness shake!" Sora pointed out. Black Canary chuckled, "Deal..." Harley patted Sora on the shoulder, "Don't worry, Sora... we'll be back with the monkey before you know it." Sora smiled in response as they turned to leave he called out to them, "Wait..."

They turned to Sora as he told them, "May your hearts be your guiding key." They smiled at that as Green Arrow whispered, "Did he do his own version of, 'may the Force be with you?'"

"I think he did." Dinah smiled as they waved goodbye...


Several hours later, Canary makes the most of her agility and her defense, keeping Grodd at bay. Grodd's telekinesis, however, balances the scales. In the end, Canary is able to overcome Grodd and put him down, "Beauty beats beast!" Green Arrow then rejoined his wife, "That right there? That's why I love you."

Black Canary smiled at that as more ape soldiers walk by. Green Arrow whistles shrilly to get their attention. They saw Grodd down and out and, as Arrow prepares to shoot them, they scatter. Arrow then puts massive handcuffs on Grodd as he comes to. Black Canary smirked, "Surprised that worked. Let's call it a day and get Harley out of here. We can get answers about Maleficent from home."

Grodd starts to chuckle maniacally making Green Arrow worry, "It's never a good sign when you slap the cuffs on and then they start chuckling."

"Humans, you've won this battle but you've already lost the war!" Grodd told them. Suddenly, the Earth starts to shake a bit. A large skull-like spaceship starts to hover over where the heroes are. All Black Canary could say was, "Holy shit."

A bright blue beam fires from the underside of the ship. Black Canary and Green Arrow disappear, much to Grodd's enjoyment. He stands and, even still in handcuffs, he laughs evilly as the Heartless joined him and freed him...


The blue beam is like a teleporter, as it transports the couple onboard the ship. They take each other's hands and stand up together, looking around. Black Canary turned to her husband, "Ollie...?"

"I, uh,... I got nothin'. This doesn't look like it came from any Disney Movie. Including Star Wars and Marvel." He replied. Suddenly, a voice is heard around the ship, "Your victory over Gorilla Grodd warrants further study."

Green Arrow arms his bow and he and Black Canary look for a target. Then, the floor opens and, from out of a twisted mess of cable and wires emerges Brainiac. Green Arrow observed, "Green skin... smart money's on alien."

"A Martian? Like J'onn J'onzz?" She wondered. Brainiac replied, "My point of origin was a thousand light years removed from Mars, on the planet Colu. I am... Brainiac."

Tendrils of metal shootout of Brainiac, grabbing both Arrow and Canary. The tendrils drag them both towards Brainiac... but Black Canary lets out a screech on Brainiac. It doesn't faze Brainiac, though, and he wraps another tendril around her throat to stop her. Green Arrow eyes widened in horror, "Stop! Please!"

"Cause and effect. Resistance begets violence." Brainiac replied. He begged, "Then we won't resist! Please, just stop!"

Brainiac does, withdrawing the tendril around Canary's neck. Canary coughs and catches her breath as Brainiac brings them both to the front of his ship, looking out upon the Earth. Green Arrow then recalled what Fate had told them earlier, "You're the grave crisis we were warned about other than the Heartless. What do you want?"

Brainiac looked up at Green Arrow and then back out at the Earth as he answered, "I seek the one you call 'Superman'. For years, I believed I had destroyed Krypton and all its remnants. Superman's survival is an oversight I must correct."

"Superman's no friend of ours." Black Canary replied. Brainiac nodded, "I'm aware. But your planet has also piqued my interest. Its many contradictions are fascinating."

"We'll NEVER serve you!" Black Canary told him. Brainiac shook his head, "Serve? I am no petty despot. I collect worlds, preserving their essential knowledge to enhance my intellect..." He then turns to Arrow and Canary, "...and, then, I discard the remnants."

"Why?!" Green Arrow demanded. Brainiac pulled the couple in front of him, "Your species values precious metals. Arbitrary symbols of status. I value...knowledge. And, like your metal trinkets, knowledge is more valuable when it is rare!" Brainiac then added, "Also... as of recently... I've been told of a new source of knowledge... one that will able to gather all there is to know the the multiverse..."

"And what's that?!" Canary demanded. Brainiac smirked, "Kingdom Hearts." Just then a dark corridor opened and someone stepped through it, "And that is precisely why he needs my help." The couple turned to the newcomer along with Pete, Black Canary eyes narrowed, "Maleficent!"

"Well... it would appear my reputation precedes me..." Maleficent smirked. Pete spoke up, "It's as I told you Maleficent, them are the punks the Key-Brat have teamed up with! I told you we should have squashed him and the sidekicks when we had the..."

"Silence, imbecile!" She snapped making Pete shut his mouth in fear. Black Canary demanded, "What's this about Maleficent?!" Green Arrow added, "Yeah, don't you have a Box to find. Sora told us that's what your after!"

"All in good in time..." Maleficent smirked, "Now tell me... where is Sora? He wasn't with the clown girl surely you two must know..."

"Why would you think we'd ever tell you?!" Black Canary snapped. Green Arrow nodded. The Mistress of All Evil smirked, "As I told another hero from long ago, it's not a matter of 'why,' but a matter of will." Maleficent staff began to glow with dark magic...


Down on a city street on Earth, everyone looks up to see hundreds of what look like meteorites head for the ground. A closer look shows they are actually small ships and, when they strike the pavement, they turn into the Betas last seen on Krypton. They reach out with their hands and shoot wires out of them, ensnaring the humans that stick around. The humans tried to escape but just then Heartless showed up cutting off their escape...


Back in the Batcave, as Sora finished his lunch Bruce brought him. He got him Belly Burger. Sora hummed happily, "It's not a good a Little Chief's but it's really good. Thanks again for lunch, Bruce."

"Thank you for your patience, I know you want to get home and you're tired of waiting here doing experiments. But we need to learn as much about you as we can in order to get you to the right universe." Bruce thanked him, "Besides, we need your help in stopping the Heartless." Sora nodded as he wondered, "Hey, could Brother Eye check to see how our friends are doing."

"I was about to check on them anyways." Bruce replied. As Sora threw out the garbage, he wondered, "Hey, Bruce... I know you have trust issues... so, why are you being so nice to me?" Bruce paused before admitted, "A friend of mine told me I need to open my circle of trust. And that circle of trust needs you... keep being honest with me and you'll be fine."

Sora smiled and nodded as Bruce was looking over Brother Eye, unaware of the chaos ensuing, "Brother Eye, give me an update on the team at Gorilla City." Brother Eye replied, "I cannot do that, Bruce Wayne of Earth." Sora gasped, "What?! Why not?!"

"Because I am NOT Brother Eye." Just then, the screens start to show Brainiac's symbol and his face, "I am Brainiac."

Bruce tries to hack into Brother Eye, "You cannot regain control. Over the past days, Brother Eye has been absorbed into my neural network. It is now an extension of my mind. You, a fragile human, captured and imprisoned a fully developed male Kryptonian."

"Maybe I'm not so fragile." Bruce stated as both Sora and him glared at the computer. Brainiac continued, "To prevail, you harnessed advanced sciences: nano-technology, satellite communications, inter-dimensional transit. I am taking these tools from you."

"But I need that... that... inter... dimens... thingy to get home!" Sora gasped. Bruce calmly asked, "Why?"

"The Kryptonian belongs to me. And, soon, so will your world. And I'm taking the boy as well. I need him if I'm to claim Kingdom Hearts for my own." Brainiac answered making Sora gasp. As alarms go off in the cave, Bruce tries again to hack into Brother Eye... but to no avail. Just then, Heartless rose from the ground. Sora summoned his Keyblade, "I got 'em!"

"Keep them busy... I'll be back!" Bruce told him. Sora nodded as he began cutting them down with his Keyblade as Bruce left. As Sora fights off the Heartless, he heard an explosion outside the Bat Cave...


Meanwhile, Bruce knew there was only one thing to do: don the suit and become the Batman! He quickly placed his belt and gadgets on him...

As Sora was backing up from fight both the Betas and Heartless. There seemed to be no end to them when door opens. Batman gets into the Batwing and flies straight towards them, "Sora! Hop on!"

Sora jumped into the Batwing ran over them. However, the Betas jump onto the Batwing to try and take him down. As Sora took his seat, Batman flies upwards through a silo, sending all but one of the Betas off. The lone Beta punches at the window, cracking it, but Batman keeps flying. Sora raised a hand and exclaimed, "Thunder!"

Lightning struck the Beta knocking it off. Batman told him, "Good work." Sora then wondered, "So... where to..."

"We need to know who Brainiac is and I have an idea who might know..." Batman answered, "You might want to put on your mask."


Meanwhile, in Kahndaq, Black Adam and Wonder Woman look into a black orb of Adam's making. It shows Brainiac's flagship, hovering within the clouds. As well as the Heartless that swarmed around it. Diana gasped, "Great Hera! Where else besides Metropolis?"

"Gotham, Beijing, Moscow. So many cities, all at once." Black Adam answered. A fair bit aside, Supergirl sees the skull-shaped ship... and is horrified, "It's him..."

"Who, Kara? Who is it?" Wonder Woman asked. Kara simply told them as she approaches the orb in shock, "We need to get Kal... now!"

Ava gasped at the darkness that was here. She stared at her hand, wondering if she should interfere when she felt the light of a Keyblade wielder, she whispered to herself, "Could it be..."

She had to find them, this Keyblade wielder... could be this worlds only hope...


Later, at the Lex Luthor Prison for Meta-Humans on Stryker's Island, one of the prisoners sits alone in a dome bathed in red light. Here, he is simply Prisoner 120192. But, a decade ago, he was the greatest superhero of all time. The Man of Steel. The fighter for truth and justice. He was Superman. Now, he's Clark Kent and the lights produce red sunlight to nullify his powers. As he sits on his bed, Batman and Sora strides up to the cell. It takes a few seconds, but Clark recognizes someone has come to visit him. He looks behind him to see them, "You're wearing the suit. Am I in trouble again?" He then noticed Sora, "He's new. Who is he?"

"None of your concern. Brainiac. What can you tell me?" Bruce told him as Sora crossed his arms trying to look intimidating. Clark was stunned, stands up and goes to the dome, "How do you know that name?!"

"You're afraid of him." Batman realized, "He's invading. He says you belong to him."

"Brainiac killed my parents... he blew up Krypton..." Clark revealed. Bruce was shocked by this, "You never mentioned that before."

"It's been hard to talk about." Clark admitted. Batman then wondered, "Did you ever hear something called Kingdom Hearts." Clark shook his head, "Can't say I have. Why bring it up?"

"Brainiac wants it. How do I beat him?" Bruce asked. Clark smirked, "You can't... not without me." Sora rolled his eyes, "Yeah, right! You'd say anything to get out!"

"Except, I'm not lying. Isn't that right, Bruce." Clark replied still smirking. Bruce's eyes narrowed, "I'll find a way!"

They both turn to leave as Clark pounded on the dome, "This is MY fight, Bruce! You NEED me! Bruce! Bruce! BRUCE!" As the door closed behind him, Sora turned to Bruce, "We don't him! We can handle Brainiac on our own!"

"You're heart's in the right place but we still need allies." Bruce told him. Sora smiled, "Then we do you need me to do?" Bruce turned to Sora, "Any idea what Kingdom Hearts is?"

"Yeah and it's extremely dangerous. Especially in the wrong hands." Sora nodded. Bruce asked, "Are you sure?"

"Absolutely, and I'm very certain of who told Brainiac about it..." Sora answered. Bruce told him, "I need you to get out there. Bring the head of one of his robots and bring it to me. We need to know what Maleficent told Brainiac. I'll make contact with you once we have a base of operations."

"I'm on it!" Sora nodded as they exited the prison. He then ran off in one direction as Batman watched him go off. He couldn't help but smirk. Working with Sora reminded him of the days he worked with Dick Grayson, the first Robin and Nightwing. He then went off to search for a new base since the Bat Cave was compromised...


Sora fought the Heartless and rescue civilians from them until he eventually reached the Betas. He was cut them down with his Crystal Snow Keyblade, they were tough but Sora has dealt with tougher. After he defeated the drones, he picked up one of the drone's heads, "Okay... this looks like that it'll work."

Just then, his phone rang. He quickly picked it up, and Batman's face appeared, "Sora, I was able to find a secure location. I'm contacting through a secure line. How's your mission going?"

Sora smiled as he showed him the Beta's head, "Will this work?" Batman nodded, "It'll do. Good work."

"Did you manage to locate Dinah, Oliver, and Harley?" Sora asked with concern. Batman replied, "My spy managed to locate Harley and is going to attempt a rescue then get back to us but there's no sign of Oliver and Dinah. Brainiac might have them."

"Oh... well... then we'll get 'em back!" Sora stated with determination. Batman nodded, "I'm sending you the coordinations for our new base. Get to it when you can." Sora nodded, "Right, see you soon!"

The called ended there as Sora got the map location, he put the drone's head away when he heard a crash slamming nearby. He ran towards the source, as he saw the Flash trying to get back up. No sooner does Flash stand up than Reverse-Flash knocks him down with a punch. Sora eyes narrowed as Eobard Thawne told his arch-foe, "I ran a long way from the future to hurt you, Barry! But this timeline... It's all wrong."

"Barry?!" Sora quietly gasped, could it really be the first friend he made on this world. His suspicions were confirmed when Flash spoke back with Barry's voice as he tried to get back up, "So go back to your OWN time, 'Reverse-Flash!'" He then was kicked back down by Thawne, "You think I haven't tried?! Your Regime buddies killed one of my ancestors... and now I'm trapped in a paradox! I can never go home... but, at least, I can hurt you!"

Sora then threw his Keyblade and Reverse-Flash was caught unaware as the Keyblade same into him knocking him back. Sora caught the returning Keyblade and checked up on Barry. He raised his Keyblade, "HEAL!" A green light shined over Barry, he was shocked even with his quickly healing, he never got better quickly from a beating. Sora offered him his hand, "Need some help?"

Barry turned to him in shock, "Sora?" Barry took Sora's hand as the Keyblade's Chosen pulled him up. He nodded with apparition, as he turned to his Keyblade, "Thanks, what are you doing here? And what's with the giant key?" Just then, as Reverse-Flash started getting back up, Sora went into his battle stance as he replied, "How about I explain after we stop that guy?"

"Fair enough." Barry nodded. Reverse-Flash turns to the newcomer and grinned, "Well, well, well... you're the last person I expected to see on this timeline, especially not this early, Sora."

"I don't think I ever met you before!" Sora's eyes narrowed. Flash replied, "That's because he's from the 25th century." Reverse-Flash nodded, "And that means I know all about you, Sora, Savior of Kingdom Heroes, Guardian of Light, Keyblade's Chosen One. You keep on defying you're fate. Guess it's up to me to make sure to correct what was supposed to happen."

The two speedsters quickly engaged each other, faster than anything he's ever seen. Thankfully, he knew just the spell for that, "STOP!" Time froze for the Reverse Flash giving Barry and Sora the opportunity to land some hits. Eventually time resumed for the Reverse Flash and ran off as Barry pursued. Thawne tied going after Sora however he quickly blocked the attack with his Keyblade until he was able to counter as he aimed his Keyblade at him, "Freeze!"

This frozen him in place as Sora turned his Keyblade into Blizzard Claws as his clothes turned green. Both Sora and Barry were able to land even more hits on him but as Sora's hit it really slowed him down. After that, Sora was able to transform his weapon again to Blizzard Blades. He skated towards Thawne and attacked him with his newly transformed weapon. Then Sora slammed his foot on the ground creating a giant ice snowflake figure freezing Reverse-Flash in place. He then started to created and jump over an ice chandelier and slammed to the ground sending Reverse-Flash flying. Reverse-Flash manages to stand up and race away before he got more of a pummeling. Sora smirked, "Still here!"

"So, you have powers too?" Barry asked. Sora nodded, "Yeah... so, who was that guy anyways. You said he was from the future, right?"

"Yeah, his name is Eobard Thawne, the Reverse Flash. He was able to recreate the accident that gave me my powers so he could try to be me. However, he learned that he was supposed to be my greatest enemy it drove him mad and made him go back in time and murder my mother and frame my father for his crime." Barry nodded. Sora frowned, "Wow... sorry, Barry."

"Don't be, it's not your fault. Anyways, during my time as a member as a Regime, one of Thawne's ancestors must have been killed. He can't go back to his time, otherwise he'd never been born." Flash continued. Sora nodded, "I see... so, you back as a hero? I thought..."

"Yeah... I don't think Bruce wouldn't mind a hand from me with both villains on the loose, monsters, and aliens trying to invade on the same day." Barry explained, "Although, between you and me... I dunno how many more reunions I can take."

"Guess I could come back later!" A new voice spoke up. Sora and Flash turned to see Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern flying down towards them. Barry's eyes narrowed, "Hal? No... not today..."

"Nice to see you, too, Barry." He replied. Sora turned to Flash, "You know him?"

"Yeah, he was with the Regime even after Billy was murdered!" Flash's eyes narrowed as Sora nodded getting into his battle stance. Barry demanded, "Whose dead hand you pry that ring from?"

"You know it doesn't work that way. The ring chose me!" Hal told him. Sora was taken back by that, the ring chose him? Was it like the Keyblade in a way? Flash continued to glare at Hal, "Even after you bailed on the Guardians to join the Sinestro Corps?!"

"The Guardians locked me up. But they also trained me to overcome my fears. I earned the second chance they gave me." Green Lantern told him. Flash and Sora looked ready for a fight as the former stated, "The Guardians made a mistake!"

Flash and Sora rushed and attacked him. They were able to get a few hit's in before they were knocked back Hal's shield. Barry tired rushing in from behind but was caught off as Hal created constructs of brick walls to block his both. The same happened with Sora. Knowing they needed back up to knock these walls down, he placed his hand to his heart and exclaimed, "Together!"

Just then, coding appeared around Sora as the video game screen of Fix-It Felix Jr. appear much to Barry and Hal's shock. The image of Wreck-It Ralph fell until he came out of the screen as crashed on the ground as Ralph picked himself up, Sora jumped on top of them and they were ready for action. Hal couldn't help but wonder, "Wait... is that Wreck-It Ralph?" Barry was wondering the same thing as Ralph and Sora rushed through breaking Hal's construct. Ralph then started created video game type cannons and it's light froze Hal in place, "Wha... what's happening..."

Sora and Ralph continued to create the cannons until they made enough. Sora then commanded, "Wreak it!" Ralph leaped in the air and formed his hand into a fist and slammed into one of the cannon's settings can reaction to the others as Hal took a beating. With that, Ralph disappeared and Sora went back to his battle stance, Barry snapped out of his shock look and gave Sora hand. Sora and Barry continued their assault until he was on the ground, defeat. Sora realized Hal didn't put much up a fight as he put away his Keyblade, "Hey Barry? I don't think he wanted to fight us."

"Yeah, I began to notice that too." Flash nodded as he turned to Green Lantern, " You were holding back, weren't you?" Barry helps Green Lantern to his feet as he replied, "I told you, I'm trying to make things right. I betrayed my Corps, my planet ...and my friends. And that's the worst part."

"All day, I've been reminded how I failed to be a hero... how hard it's gonna be to regain people's trust." Flash replied. Sora thought out loud, "Guess you're both on that path. Your journeys might have a long way to go. But maybe it'll be easier to doing it together. You both want the same thing, so why not? So what'd ya say?" Green Lantern nodded, "I'm willing to give it a try, if you are."

Barry smiled and nodded as they shook hands. Green Lantern cleared his throat, "So... um... who's your friend?"

"Oh, right. Sora, this is Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern. Hal, this is Sora, he's from another world." Flash introduced them as they shook hands. Sora smiled, "Nice to meet ya!" Green Lantern smiled and nodded, "You too, Sora. What brings you to Earth?"

"It's a long story. One we're all trying to figure out." Sora answered. Green Lantern nodded when a new voice spoke, "Luxu was right... you really can make friends with anyone."

The three heroes looking around as a new figure approached them. Flash turned to Hal, "I don't recognize her, she with you?" Hal replied, "I thought she was with you."

"I have never seen her before." Sora added. Invi walked up to them, "My name is Invi... I was told you were the one who ended the second Keyblade War, Sora." Green Lantern muttered in confusion, "Keyblade War?"

"Didn't know there was even a first one?" Flash muttered. Sora eyes narrowed as he asked, "What about it?"

The Foreteller answered, "My companions wish to see your strength first hand. Consider this..." She raised a hand, "...a test." Light shone from her hand as she summoned her weapon as Sora gasped in shock, "A Keyblade?!"

Sora quickly summoned his Keyblade as she charged in to block her attack. She pushed down on her blade as he tired pushing back just then Flash ran into her knocking her back, "I don't know what your deal is lady... but I'm not going to let you mess with my friends."

"Neither am I." Green Lantern floated by Sora's side aiming his ring at Invi. She got back up, "Very well... guess you're now part of this trail too!" She went into her battle stances as did the others. She charged at them but Lantern constructed a battering ram and slammed into her. Barry ran around her trying to cut off her air support so that she would pass out. However with a simple move of her free had wind blew Barry away. Hal was able to catch him a green construct of a giant baseball glove as Sora made his move.

As their Keyblades clashed with one another, Invi studied how quickly Sora's friends always came to aid him in time of need. Just as the Keyblades clashed once more Hal slammed her with a green baseball bat making her crash into the wall. She was able to catch herself as she ran from wall to wall as Sora pursued. Barry got back on his feet and ran ahead of her on the wall and was able to trip her as she fell mid air gave Sora an opening as he strikes her with his Keyblade several times until she knocked him back as Sora performed a shotlock on her. This temporarily turned his Keyblade into blizzard blades which slashed at her from a distance.

As she landed on the ground, Barry ran around many times when he threw Lighting at her. She was able to block the attack but slightly pushed her back as Hal's construct of a train ran her over. Just then the construct turned into water which redirected at the heroes. Hal quickly made a barrier to cover them as Sora raised his Keyblade and exclaimed, "Thunder!"

Lighting struck Invi blocking her construction making the water died down as Barry ran around and threw another bolt of lightning, this time hitting her down for the count. Everyone painted as Hal stated, "That lady could dish out allot."

"Yeah at least it's over." Flash nodded when just then a cloaked figure walked to Invi. Sora's eyes widened as he recognized the coat, "NO WAY!"

The figure picked up Invi as he chuckled, "See you around kiddo." And with a Corridor of Darkness both figures disappeared as Sora before catch them. Barry ran up to Sora, "Who were they?"

"I'm not sure about the lady in the snake mask or why she could use the Keyblade but I recognize the guy in the black coat. He's part of a group called Organization XIII, my arch-enemies, but they should have been disbanded with their leader gone." Sora explained as he put away his Keyblade. Hal crosses his arms, "Guess someone didn't get the memo. Are they gonna gonna be a problem?"

"Definitely." Sora nodded. Flash stated, "Then we better warn Batman..." He then asked, "What were you doing before all this happened?"

"Oh, yeah!" He pulled out the head of the Beta, "Batman want to figure what Brainiac was planning using this. And maybe figure out what happened to the others."

"Huh?" Barry was caught off guard. Sora clarified, "Oliver and Dinah have been captured."

"Oh no!" Flash's eyes widened in horror. Hal paused, "Wait, I thought they were dead?! What are waiting for?! We need to get to Bruce!"

"Sora, where did Bruce say to meet him?" Barry asked. Sora pulled out his phone, "Here." Flash took a look before telling the others, "I know where that is... C'mon!"

They nodded as they made their way to Bruce's new lair...


Later, in the hideout of Batman's, the Caped Crusader is talking to the Flash and Sora about Green Lantern, the former asked, "We need help, don't we?"

"Not his." Bruce told him as he examined the drone's head. Sora spoke up, "You gave Barry a second chance. What's the difference between him and Hal?"

"Because He got your head on straight and helped take down Clark. If he was still in charge, HE'D still be wearing yellow!" Batman explained to the teenager. Suddenly, a heavy crate snaps from its tether and falls towards Batman, Sora, and Flash. Before it can squash the heroes, a large green hand emerges from Green Lantern's ring and grabs the crate. As he puts the crate down, "I'm NOT that guy anymore! Look, I get why you don't trust me. But you should trust the Guardians. This ring MEANS something. They put me through hell to get it back."

Batman says nothing in response as Hal sighed as he turned to leave, "Fine. I've got my orders! Just thought it'd help if we cooperate." Sora turned to Bruce, "C'mon, Bruce... everyone deserves a second chance. I'll even keep an eye on him if you want."

Batman considers Sora's words as Green Lantern is half-way out. He then called out, "Lantern!" Green Lantern stops and turned to Bruce as he admitted, "Maybe it's time I widened my circle of trust."

He nodded as he walked back to Sora, Flash, and Batman, "What can I do?"

"You're taking Sora and going to Atlantis. Our 'circle of trust' needs Aquaman and his Marines." Batman explained. Flash wondered, "You think he'll help? He's been off-radar since the Regime fell." Green Lantern raised his hand, "Um, he didn't like getting roped into the Regime by Superman. He sure won't be happy to see ME."

"Get used to that." Bruce told him as he went back to work. Sora turned to Hal, "Don't worry, we got this."

"You never met Arther before, he's stubborn. Especially when it comes to Atlantis." Hal warned him. Sora smiled, "So is Riku and Donald but they'll always pull through for me, I'm sure Arther will listen."

"Well, I do like your enthusiasm." Hal admitted before nodding, "Alright, let's do this."

Sora nodded as they headed to Atlantis I unaware that Ava had been watching the group...
