DISCLAIMER: …Okay, I don't know what to put in here because there are sooo many references from different movies and such in this chapter. So, I'm just going to say that all I own is Lisa, Sarah, and anything else you don't recognize!

All that being said, I hope you enjoy the chapter!

Lisa's POV:

As soon as I heard Genie's scream of warning (possibly a few seconds before the scream…but hey, no one noticed) I gripped the Sultan's shoulder tighter and started pulling him away, grabbing a stunned Sarah on my way out.

When I reached my destination, a small panic room I had talked Sarah into adding into the schematics, I shoved them in and started stripping off the excess detachable fabric of my specially-made dress.

"You two stay here," I ordered as I threw off the damned tiara I had been forced to wear and threw my now ruined hair up into its traditional black cord. "You'll be safe."

I grabbed my Sais that I had stored here earlier, but was stopped short by a hand on my arm. I looked up at Sarah and was only slightly surprised to see her hazel eyes shining almost green with defiance.

"No." I stated.

"Oh, no." she retaliated, "There is no way I am just going to sit back here and wait for you to come back and tell me it's safe! I can fight! And you know it too, considering you're the one who taught me!"

I rolled my eyes. I knew when she had asked me a couple of months ago to teach her some self-defense that she was preparing herself for this day. But the last time she didn't hide, she ended up chained to a wall with Abis Maul hitting on her. No way was I about to let something like that happening again.

"No, Sarah. The moves I taught you are only sufficient enough to keep you safe from one or two perverted average Joes when Genie's not around. There is no way you're ready to face these guys. Stay here with the Sultan. I'll come back and get you when it's safe."

And with that I was off like a rocket, fighting to get to the place where I knew HE would show up…

The Present Room…

Sarah's POV:

To say I was mad would be an understatement…I was livid!

For a minute I just stared at where Lisa had been, open mouthed and stuttering.

"I-I-…She- she just…..But we….I'M NOT READY?!?"

The Sultan jumped a little at my outburst. I immediately reddened.

"I'm sorry, You're Highness. It's just…I worked so hard and trained for a lot of hours to make sure that if something like this happened I wouldn't have to hide and I could help…I thought Lisa understood that…but…"

"Well, my dear, if you think you're ready, go out there and prove it!"

I looked at the Sultan in shock. "What?"

The Sultan gave me a very determined and stern look. "I know that I am too old and not fit to be fighting, Sarah. But if YOU believe that you are capable then go out there and fight! You are the Royal Vizier of Agrabah! No one, save me, has the right to tell you what you can and cannot do."

The Sultan's words rang in my ears and I glanced out the door.

Genie was supporting the ceiling with his body, trying to keep it from falling.

Aladdin was fighting off any thief he could.

Lisa was nowhere to be seen.

Jasmine was helping guests out of the pavilion.

That struck a chord…even Jasmine, a princess, was out there helping…

No way am I going to stand here and watch like some helpless damsel in distress.

I gave the Sultan a reassuring smile and swiftly stepped out of the hiding cove and attacked the first thief I saw.

Lisa's POV:

It took a lot of running, a lot of dodging, and a few swift kicks to the shins, but I finally made it to the present room. Unfortunately, I wasn't the first one there. I hid around the corner and watched as Iago threw a gold plate at the King's head and wielded a jewel-encrusted candle stick.

"Meet your match, Zorro!"

I smirked despite myself.

I knew telling the story of Zorro around the dinner table that one night would pay off.

The King tried to cajole Iago.

"Good birdie…" he cooed, approaching slowly. "Polly want a little-"

I winced but laughed at the same time.

Wrong move, Jack.

"Say 'cracker'" Iago started, his temper flaring, "and I'll let you have it ON PRINCIPLE!"

Iago swung a couple of times, each time missing by an inch, before the King caught him by wings.

"You have a lot of spirit…" the King complemented as he lifted up the struggling and protesting bird. Then, he grabbed the nearest vase and stuffed Iago into it. "…and a lot of mouth."

Now, I was pissed.

I snuck up behind him, deathly quiet and pointed one of my Sais at his back and the other at his throat. This action caused the proximity between us to close up, thus enabling me to see him stiffen and his breathing accelerate. I could practically smell his anxiety.

I had caught the King of Thieves by surprise.

Point one for Lisa

"Listen, pal, no one touches the talking turkey but me."

He held his hands up as surrender and slowly tuned his head. I expected to hear some sort of shocked expression or maybe some snide comment come out of his mouth. I got neither.

Just as his peripheral view hit me, he grabbed the hand at his throat and latched on to my wrist, his thumb pressing none too gently on the pressure point that resides there.

I dropped the Sai.

Before it hit the ground the King acted again.

He grabbed my left wrist in the same vice grip as my right and caused me to drop my other Sai.

He looked down at me and I felt an electrical shock of defiance shoot through me as his smug chocolate brown eyes seemed to smirk at me.

I growled at him dangerously, but it did not affect him.

His presence still held that predatory, male dominance air.

I wanted to beat it out of him.

Fortunately, fate was in my corner.

With me seemingly defenseless, he let his grip on my wrist relax.

Bad move.

I smirked and jumped up, using the leverage of my wrist supported by the King to flip over him, kicking him in the back as I landed.

He let out a groan, stumbled to his knees and I kicked my Sais across the room. I'm a fair fighter, and if he had no weapons, then neither would I.

I stood in fight stance and watched warily as the King rose and turned to face me. Once again, his eyes seemed to smirk at the situation.

"Don't you think this is an awful lot of trouble for a pretty bride's maid like you to go through? Fighting the King of Thieves for a few gifts?"

I smirked back at him.

"Some King. You can't even recognize a Captain when you see her. And no, it's not too much trouble. In fact, I would say that kicking your ass back to the hole you crawled out of, You're Highness, will be no trouble at all."

That seemed to set him off pretty good, because the next thing I knew I was dodging punches.

Hell yes!

We went around the room like that for a bit. Dodge, punch, duck, swing, jump…It was almost like a dance.

It was push and pull. I was trying to prove myself better than him and he was doing the same for me. I punched him in the gut; he knocked my feet out from under me. I got him by the throat; he got me by my hair.

God, he's relentless!

Eventually he got a hold of my arm and twisted it behind my back.

"You know", he commented in my ear, "You fight almost as well as a man."

Oh God, the Disney references strike again!

"Funny," I replied, "I was going to say the same thing about you!"

As I said 'you' I stomped on his foot with my heel. He hissed in pain and released me.

I took a couple of steps away and then turned to face him again, only to see him reaching for one of my Sais.

As I said, I'm a fair fighter. But now he had a weapon, which meant needed one to.

I looked around franticly and spotted a jewel incrusted sword over in a corner behind some chests of gold. I made a mad dash for it, easily jumped over the chests, and grabbed it.

Just as I turned once more to face my opponent, I heard a distinct *thunk*, and felt a force push my arm back against the wall, thus causing me to drop the sword.

I gazed in horror and mild fascination as my own Sai pinned my arm to the wall by way of my sleeve.

It took me a second to realize what had happened and I reached over to pull my Sai out, only to have my free hand pinned back by the King's hand and then held in place with the my other Sai.

The King stepped back quickly as I started kicking wildly at him. He kicked the chests that were in front of me into my legs reach, and I kicked them by mistake. As I hissed in pain, the King pushed the chests securely against my legs, thus entrapping my feet.

I struggled, pushed, and pulled against my confines, cursing Sarah's damned strong material.

In one, final attempted at freedom, I arched as far as I could off the wall and pulled my arms as hard as I could, letting out a frustrated groan.

No dice.

I was stuck.

As I slumped into a limp position I opened my eyes to glare at the King.

He just chuckled a bit before leaning forward until he was just inches from my face.

"So," he started, "was it as good for you as it was for me?"

My eyes narrowed and I felt a blush creep up my neck.

So he wants to play dirty, huh? Well, two can play at that game.

"I've had better."

He chuckled more.

"I think," he said, "that we are evenly matched, Captain."

I smirked a bit at his stupidity.

"Think again."

Another loud *thunk* was heard as I butted my head against his.

He stumbled back a few steps, placed a hand on his forehead and shook his head to clear his vision.

I just smirked wider.

He looked at me and, to my shock, laughed.

"You truly are unstoppable, aren't you?"

My shock dissipated into rivalry and slight pride.

"You bet."

Sarah's POV:

I managed to get behind a half way demolished column and take a few big breaths.

While I wasn't failing at fighting, I knew that Lisa wasn't kidding when she said these guys would be tough! One or two, I could handle just fine, but these guys were like fleas! I got rid of one and then there were three more in its place.

I heaved a breath, rolled my shoulders, and was just about to jump back into the fray again, when two arms caught me around the waist.

Oh, hell no!

"Hello beautiful", the foul breathed voice whispered in my ear. "Why don't you come along with me, huh? I bet we could make great music together."

You've got to be kidding me! How old is that line?!?

"Sorry, Pepe Le Pew, but I already got a boyfriend. Why don't I just sing for you?"

His grip loosened in confusion and I jumped at my chance to do something I wanted to do for years.

I consecutively elbowed him in the gut, stepped on his foot, elbowed him in the nose, and then balled my fists up and punched him in the balls.

As he lay on the floor in pain, I stood over him and said "That would be the solar plexus, instep, nose, and groin. S.I.N.G."

I smirked once more and then made my way quickly…somewhere else.

As I walked quickly away, I happen to pass by Aladdin and the palace guards… who were in their underwear.

I stopped in my tracks and looked at them curiously.

"They fight like Demons!" one of them exclaimed.

"Worse than Demons!" the other responded. "These are the forty thieves!"

"Really?" I looked up and smiled lightly at Genie (who was still trying to support the crumbling ceiling). "I count thirty nine."

I managed to look to my right just as an elephant moved, and saw Cassim digging through the gifts; only he looked a bit worse for wear than he had in the movie.

Lisa must have really done a number on him.

Noticing that Aladdin hadn't picked up his cue yet, I rolled my eyes. I grabbed his chin and physically turned his head to face the King of Thieves.

"Forty…" we said together as he walked towards the present room.

Lisa's POV:

As I was just hanging around and not doing anything particularly interesting, the King decided to continue his hunt for the Oracle.

After a few minutes of fruitless hunting, I heard him ask "Where is it?"

I can't pass this up!

"Your manhood? Well, honey, if you can't find THAT…"

Again, I expected a glare but didn't get it.

Instead, he smirked at me and replied, "Actually, love, I was hoping you could help me find that later tonight."

I raised my eyebrows in appreciation. Usually all I got for my perverted jokes were blushes, glares, and shoves. But this guy knew how to fight back!

...I liked it.

"In your dreams, You're Majesty."

He turned his back to me, and started searching again, but not before calling behind his shoulder "Every night, Captain."

He moved aside a couple of useless, yet expensive looking knick knacks and took in a breath.

"Ah! At last!"

He picked up the long gold staff with the green jewel attached to its top and admired it for a bit. I smirked to myself as I watch Aladdin sneak up on him and grab him from behind, throwing him to the floor.

Aladdin looked down at him smugly. "Can I see your invitation?"

"I don't know Al; I think Sarah might've left him off the guest list."

Aladdin turned to face me and his eyes got wide. He looked at me as if I had grown a second head.

"What?! Yes, I'm pegged to the wall. But don't pay attention to me! Pay attention to what you're doing!" I hissed at him.

"Listen to the Lady, and stay out of my way boy," said the King from the ground, "and you won't get hurt!"

The king picked up one of the statues that had fallen down next to him and threw it at Aladdin. Aladdin (the dumb-ass) did not dodge it and ended up on his back.

"Aladdin! Damn it! Stick and move, stick and move!"

As the King bent down to his level, Aladdin tried to stab him with the Oracle.

"Fool", said the King, "you don't stand a chance against the King of thieves!"

"Why not? I did!"

Once again, my wise and witty comments go unnoticed.

"When I get up I'll bow to you!" Aladdin grunted out as he kicked the King off of him.

After that, it was just a struggling match for the Oracle. I watched in mild interest. I knew how this ended. So, I just kind of hung there, on the wall, a complete and total dead weight.

When is that elephant going to charge through?

Sarah's POV:

I felt pretty damn proud of myself. After making Pepe Le Pew sing soprano, I managed to stop at least three more thieves.

I snickered to myself as I made my way to another victim. Genie had abandoned the attempt to save the roof, so I knew the end was near.

Thank God.

I tried to walk further, but the next thing I knew I was eating the floor. I flipped on my back to see a disgusting looking thief attached to the gold anklet around my left ankle.

"Uh, dude, let go!"

I tried kicking him with my free foot, but he caught it in his grasp.

I sat up and was about to punch his lights out when I felt my arms being restrained.

"She's got more gold on this end, Malachi."

I turned my head slightly to see another thief holding my arms behind my back and eyeing my tiara, my necklace, and Genie's gold hoop.

"Touch the earring," I growled at him, "and you die."

He snorted. "I'm soooo scared."

I felt a particularly rough tug at my ankle and "ouch"ed my pain.

"I can't get it off!" the thief at my feet said.

"Then we'll take the whole package!"

They started cackling as they lifted me up and started carrying me away like a luau pig.

I started panicking. I did the only thing I could think of that would save me.

"GENIE!!!!!"

Before I could say "Mr. Smith" the thieves had dropped me and were running out the door in pain and I was poofed away before I hit the ground.

When I opened my eyes I smiled to see myself sitting on a park bench next to a "genie-fied" Forest Gump.

Genie looked at me and smiled, saying "Mama always said 'Magic is as magic does'."

I laughed out loud at that and then pressed my lips to his cheek.

"Thanks, Genie."

Lisa's POV:

Aaaaand….they were still at it.

I sighed in boredom and rested my head against my shoulder as Aladdin tackled the King to the floor.

I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts, diddely-dee-dee…
There they are a-standing in a row…

I was so bored, I was singing to myself and flinging my hands about as if conducting an orchestra.

Wasn't that elephant due ten minutes ago?

The King got up quickly and they started struggling for the Oracle again.

In response to the attack, Aladdin stepped back and accidently kick a vase. The vase flew through the air and crashed a couple of inches to the left of my head, revealing a very befuddled Iago.

"Hey! Watch it!"

Then, as if n response to my protests, I heard a very distinct sound.

*riiiiiip*

"Gah!" I exclaimed as I fell into the crease between the chests and the wall.

In hopes of getting just one more hit, I jumped up as quickly as I could and sprinted to where Aladdin and the King were fighting…only to be knocked back down by Aladdin who was getting out of the way of a wayward stampeding elephant.

Ah, Gravity. Thou art a heartless bitch.

When the dust and elephant cleared, Aladdin and I stood and looked around.

"Where's the King of Thieves?" Aladdin asked.

I let out a quiet sigh and made my way over to pull out my Sais from the wall.

"Oh, he probably disappeared using some type of Arabian Ninja trick that I have yet to learn."

I smirked to myself as I yanked my Sais out of the wall. I knew perfectly well he had hitched a ride out on that elephant.

Very schneaky.

"After all," I continued, making my way back to stand next to Aladdin, "they don't call him the King of Thieves for nothing."

I looked out of the hole the elephant had made and gazed to the spot where I estimated the King would be looking back at us.

I felt my smirk give way to a small smile as my respect for the King grew. I had amazing eyesight, and I couldn't even see a shadow of him. The only reason I knew he was there was because I had seen the movie so many times.

I would never admit it to anyone, but I was actually looking forward to seeing (and perhaps having a rematch) with the witty, strong, and (okay, I'll begrudgingly admit it) charismatic King of Thieves.

(A/N): Okay, that's that chapter.

Next up is the Oracle and some good ol' fashioned Genie/Sarah fluff!

Review please!
