Shadic: Man that was a bumpy ride
Emerald: No shit Sherlock
Shadic: I get to meet Simba
Emerald: Oh wow I like him

The ship crashed ejecting us almost instantly. We both hit the ground hard and laid there for a second. I looked behind me and saw that the gummi ship was self-repairing itself due to the damages it suffered. I looked at Emerald only so see that she and I had both turned into lions to blend with this world. We looked around and saw a giant rock formation, "Pride Rock!" We ran to the rock only to encounter heartless squads that seem to have taken on the appearance of things you might find in this world. "Oh no!" Our keyblades materialized in our mouths and we began hacking and slashing at the enemies around us. After some time had passed, the heartless had stopped showing up and we began running to the giant rock. "Don't worry, we're almost to Pride rock!" Emerald got in front of me and began to slash at any heartless that came in our way. I kept running keyblade in mouth and charging. Pretty soon, we got to pride rock and saw other loins looking at us. We were out of breath and scared out of our minds from the amounts of heartless that we fought. One of the lions came forth to us and smiled, "Hello there, welcome to the Pride Lands. My name is Nala and my mate Simba is up in the Pride Rock." I was too tired to say anything but Emerald was able to speak, "We are here searching for something and we could use the help of your leader to find it." Nala raised an eyebrow and looked at us, "What is it you're searching for?" Emerald opened her mouth and tried to tell her about our mission, "We are searching for the ke-" I quickly covered her mouth, "We are looking for an object called a key hole. It looks like this." I began to draw the keyhole shape in the ground as best I could but she couldn't think of a place where the keyhole might be. "Sorry you 2. I've never seen that in my life…wait maybe Simba has seen that." Emerald and I started to perk up as Nala went to grab Simba. When she left, Emerald and I looked at each other, "Shadic, we may find our first keyhole all fine and dandy, but how will we protect it?" I looked up trying to think, "I'm not sure; I've never thought about it." Just as I finished my sentence, heartless showed up and they were prepared for a fight. However, they seemed to move out the way as if waiting for something.

Wasting no time, Emerald and I sprang into action and began slashing at multiple heartless troopers. While in the middle of the fight, a lion came running up with a keyblade in his mouth as well. I looked at him and the soldiers, "Hey there, mind helping us?" He shook his head and went after me, "Shadic, you will be my ticket to getting my sister back!" I kept dodging and countering against this mysterious keyblade wielder. I'm not sure what it was, but something about him seemed very familiar. "Hey! What are you doing and who are you?!" The keyblade wielding lion didn't answer but kept attacking me. Emerald tried to come over to help but he shot a fireball at her knocking her away. I was shocked, amazed, and pissed. This unknown keyblade wielder came out of nowhere and attacked my girlfriend. I was so pissed that I couldn't control my anger, "You little…I will-!" Another lion came from the shadows and looked at me. He had tan fur and a scar under his eye. Instantly I knew who it was, "Scar! I had a feeling you'd be behind this!" Scar looked at me and smirked devilishly, "I've never see your face around here before but maybe if you join my legion, I will consider sparring you." I looked at Emerald and helped her up and saw my keyblade glow. "What's this?" Scar was shocked when I pointed my keyblade in the air and casted my first spell, "Thunder!" Without warning, lightning came down on the surrounding enemies and hit everyone including Scar and the mystery keyblade wielder. Both of them tried to dodge the multiple strikes while the heartless got slain by Emerald and me.

Eventually, Simba had arrived from Pride Rock and began to fight scar while Emerald and I fought the keyblade lion. Eventually, both of them retreated and we chased after them. "We will go after the other lion while you take care of Scar!" Simba nodded to me and I had a little moment of fanboy come out. The lion we were chasing got into a bush and disappeared when we got to it. Heartless were there to greet us with no mercy to be given. Emerald and I had to fight again and again trying to get back to our gummi ship which was somehow repaired and not that far. Quickly we got in and strapped ourselves in and took off.

Flying through the in between worlds, I saw multiple heartless battleships headed for us and manned the guns while Emerald took control of the piloting systems, "Shadic, on our left flank!" I looked through the targeting systems and began to fire counter strikes at the heartless heading for us. "Heartless to the front and right!" Emerald tried to fly us to safety but it wouldn't work. I proceeded to blast each vessel that came near us but they were getting too close to the point where if I hit them, the blast would damage the gummi ship. "Shadic we're almost there, just hang in there!" I heard Emerald call from the pilot seat. She was right. The new world came into view and we soon departed.

When we entered, there was a coliseum gate and a row of pillars. I wasn't found of this world but Emerald was as I could see the excitement in her eyes. "Welcome to the Olympus Coliseum, home of the gods and where the great Hercules performs!" I looked around and saw the entrance, "Let's go in and see what we can find inside." We went in and found a signup sheet for elite challengers. Emerald grabbed the feather of the pedestal and signed both our names up glancing at me, "Good girl." I smiled at her and caught a good backhand across the face from her, "Never say that to ma again if you don't want me to slay you where you stand!" I smirked at her and shrugged, "Alright, kitten." She looked at me and drew her keyblade, "You must really want to die." I drew mine and was getting ready to counter her until a little guy stood between us, "Save it for the games! Now get out there so I can announce yous to the audience!" We quickly got out into the arena and looked around and saw the audience. After the announcements we were put into a bracket tournament and given our opponents. It didn't take me long to figure out that some of the contestants were heartless. I tapped Emerald on the shoulder and pointed to some of the contestants, "I think some of our opponents might be heartless." She looked around but couldn't see the heartless. "All I see are normal combatants." I looked right at them and tried to get that off my mind. The lineup was my match first then Emeralds and then we went from there. I realized if we fought to our greatest potential, we may end up having to face each other but I figured it was worth it considering we can figure out where our strengths and weaknesses lay. The other contestants left the stage and let me and my opponent face off. I summoned my keyblade and watched as whatever I was facing turn into a big knight with a sword and shield. "The first combatants are Shadic vs The Noble Knight! Let the games begin!" I was ready for him and my keyblade already told me how to beat it.

The knight ran at me and swung his sword at me and I reacted quickly by dodging right and sweeping my keyblade at its legs. The knight brought down its shield and blocked my attack. He then started to swing wildly at me. I tried to find a flaw in him but was hit by his shield getting thrown back. I had to think and fast as he was slowly advancing towards me. Looking to the audience, Emerald pointed her keyblade into the air and made a motion for magic. That's right, if this heartless mimicked the idea of a knight, then it must be using is skin as metal armor making it weak to electric type attacks. I pointed my keyblade at the knight and cast the spell of lightning at it. Just as I predicted the static went all throughout the armor and I watched the heartless fall to the ground. The kingdom keyblade then powered up and I brought it down as hard as I could onto the heartless causing it to dematerialize into nothing more than a half heart shard.

Emerald and the rest of the crowd cheered for me as I bowed for a tremendous battle. I had minimal battle scars but still in fairly good shape. Emerald ran out from the audience and gave me a big hug. On this day, Victory was mine!

Shadic: Aww did I make kitten mad
Emerald: Don't call me that damnit
Shadic: Ill take that as a yes
Emerald: I swear I will kill you
