Music Cue: A Day in Agrabah (Kingdom Hearts)

The group heads into the Desert of Shifting Sands and tries to walk on the ground, but the sand pushes them back.

"As expected, it's hopeless..." Gandalf assumed as he look down until Cid and Mid run up behind them.

"Wait!" Cid shouted.

"It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings, and the orchestra hasn't even started tuning up yet!" Mid insisted.

"We'll build a bridge!" Cid suggested.

"It's a little risky, but you guys are all about danger, right?" Mid assumed.

"How it works is, we use this bell to call the sandworm..." Cid began

"...then you guys trash it..." Mid added

"...and there's your bridge!" Cid finished.

"Not the most sophisticated of methods... You aren't that sophisticated of a guy! I think it suits you fine!" Gandalf regretfully agreed.

"All right, we're going to call the sandworm!" Cid said.

"You guys ready?" Mid asked as they nodded to him. "Oh yeah... if you use any magic on the sandworm, you'll be sorry. Good luck!" He said.

"Here goes nothing!" Cid said

The group rings a bell, and the sandworm appears. The group battles, Salty summon the waves at the Sandworm, Diggs use his paper at the Sandworm, Catherine and Naoto are combined their attacked together, Butch and Gandalf combined their attacks too. Kida fires slot of arrows at the Sandworm, Angus use rapid fire at the Sandworm and Duncan use his moves at the Sandworm and they finally defeated it.

"Game, set, and match!" Mid commented.

"Now you can get into the desert!" Cid said as he and Mid cheered as Salty and his friends are

Cid, Mid, take care of the black chocobo while we're gone, okay?" Salty asked as they agreed to him.

Music Cue: A Day in Agrabah (Kingdom Hearts)

"The group continues into the desert. Right now Diggs, Salty, Gandalf and Butch panting and sweating because of the heat, and the fact that they had a thick cost of fur didn't help matters.

"Why does the Earth Crystal always be here in the Dessert." Salty complaint.

"I want to go back home and take a nap for this!" Diggs whining.

"Quit your whining, I won't carried you if you collapse." Butch said.

"Are we there yet?" Gandalf asked as he panting.

"Not yet." Catherine said.

As they travel through it and past it until they reach the town of Ronka.

"Finally! We're here!" Diggs said in relief.

"Guess this is that Town of Ruin Cid was talking about..." Salty recalled.

When the group goes up the stairs, they suddenly see Eraqus behind a pillar before he runs off. Kida look surprised to see him.

"That was..." Kida began

"King Tycoon...?" Naoto assumed.

Salty and his team keeps going and they spot Eraqus again, and continue to follow him for awhile until he runs inside a destroyed building, where they corner him.

"Master!" Kida exclaimed.

"... M...Master..." Naoto stammered. Then Kida began to stared at her look surprised to hear her say that and so does Naoto.

Then suddenly, a hole opens underneath them and they fall in, startled, as King Tycoon watches. They land in an open room, while Gandalf lands in a smaller room nearby. Kida and Naoto are the only one who are still awake.

Music Cue: Treasure Memories (Kingdom Hearts)

"Naoto!" Kida called out but noticed that she still silent "I knew it! You really ARE his pet!" She exclaimed.

Naoto look down in shame "I'm sorry... I wasn't certain at first, and then I didn't think I should tell you..."

Kida felt so happy to see her best friend is okay after she left Atlantis, as Naoto smiled back at her.

Gandalf wakes up and tries to find a way out of the room, but doesn't. Salty and his team wakes up and goes to the two girls.

Music Cue: A Very Small Wish (Kingdom Hearts)

"Uhhh... Where are we?" Diggs groaned.

"This place is strange..." Kida said as she look around the room

"Say...what happened to the old man?" Angus asked.

"Huh? He's not here?" Salty said in confused.

"We must have gotten separated when we fell..." Catherine stated.

"He'll be okay. He's a tough old cuss! I'm sure we'll run into him again later. Come on, let's get going." Salty said.

Gandalf freaks as he hears this and bangs on the wall several times before he looks around, spots a hole, and, clinging to the very edge, manages to pull himself out of the little room and into the larger one where the others are, freaking them out.

"Now wait one cotton-picking minute! That was an awfully quick decision to ditch me!" Gandalf scolded.

"Yikes Uh...sorry!" Salty apologized.

The group heads through the area until they step on a platform, activating it.

"What is this?" Diggs wondered.

They are teleported to another platform. The room suddenly shakes.

"Look out!" Salty warned.

As they flee, the machine overloads and destroys the path behind them as they run before they manage to flee into another room.

Meanwhile

Cid and Mid fly the Black Chocobo back to the forest where it was found and dismount. "East, west, home is best... even if you're a chocobo, huh!" Cid commented.

"Bartz should be thrilled! We went above and beyond the call of duty!" Mid said.

Back to Salty and the others.

"Phew... That was close." Salty said in relief.

"I suppose that was a warp device." Gandalf assumed.

"After not being used for so long, activating it must've caused an overload..." Catherine pointed out.

The group continues until they find a switch, which they pull. This causes an earthquake where Cid, Mid, and the Black Chocobo are. Suddenly, Cid and Mid fall into a hole that opens beneath them as the Black Chocobo looks confused. The party continues through the door that opened and travel until they cross a bridge to something unexpected.

Music Cue: A Walk in Andante (Kingdom Hearts)

"This is...?" Salty began, and it was the Fire-powered ship. "Hey, it's the fire-powered ship! I thought it had sunk." He recalled. Then he notices another bridge leading to another ship. "...But what's that ship over there?" He wondered.

They cross the second bridge to a ship with propellers. "Propellers on a boat? What's up with that?" Butch asked.

Then Cid and Mid suddenly land in front of them.

"Cid, Mid!" Angus exclaimed as he and the others look surprised to see them. As they began to get up.

"What the... Salty, Kida, everyone...what're you guys doing here?" Mid asked. As Cid looks around the ship.

"I think that's our line!" Salty snapped but then calm down. "Where'd you guys come from?" He asked.

"We rode the black chocobo back to Crescent Island. Then, all of a sudden a hole opened up beneath us, and we fell..." Mid explained.

"Wait, so we're underneath Crescent Island?" Butch guessed. As Mid nods then Cid went inside the ship.

Music Cue: Shipmeister Shanty (Kingdom Hearts II)

"That explains the fire-powered ship being here..." Duncan commented.

"This place must've been built by the Ancients." Mid assumed.

"Huh... And this propeller ship?" Salty asked.

"Uhh... maybe you should ask Grandpa about that." Mid suggested and then noticed that he's not around here. "Huh? Wait, where'd he go?"

Mid follows Cid inside the ship. Salty and his friends follows them until they spot the two in the engine room.

"Hot diggity dang! This is mind-blowing!" Cid yelled with an excited grin as he continues examining the ship.

"Hey Cid..." Salty began, before Cid stop him.

"Don't bother me, boyo!" Cid said as he ignores Salty and his friends and continues fiddling with the ship. "...tighten this...and adjust this...righty tighty, lefty loosey... "Then the ship begins to shake slightly. "Voila! That should do it!" Cid announced.

"That should do what?" Salty asked as Cid looks excited.

"That should get this ship moving!" Cid answered.

Underwater, a hatch suddenly opens, allowing the ship to fly into the sky.

"Cid, what is this thing?" Diggs asked.

"Isn't it obvious? It's an Atlantian airship!" He answered as he grinned. "Amazing...I've only ever seen these in old texts! I can't believe I'm getting to use one in the flesh!" Much for everyone's suprised for what he said "...Er, well, you know what I mean!" He said in defense.

Battle Cue: Rowdy Rumble (Kingdom Hearts II)

Suddenly the ship shakes violently, startling everyone. "Oof, what was that!?" Salty panicked.

"Something's dragging us down!" Cid stated as everyone looks over the ship, and it was a Clay Claw.

"Creeping crawdads! Some monster's got a death grip on the ships's hull!" Salty said to himself

The group battles Clay Claw, Salty and Diggs are combined their attacks together, Butch use his moves at the Clay Claw and so does Gandalf. Catherine, Kida and Naoto are combining their attacks to the Clay Claw and so does Duncan and Angus. And they finally it, after that they cheered for victory.

Music Cue: Shipmeister Shanty (Kingdom Hearts II)

"Ha! Looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!" Cid joked.

"With cheese biscuits AND mashed potatoes!" Angus added and the two of them laugh including Duncan, but unfortunately, Diggs, Butch, Salty, Catherine, Gandalf, Kida and Naoto, because they don't look amused from that joked, because they find it a bit offensive to Kida and Naoto, because they were from Atlantis. Catherine likes eating fish, but since he and her friends have arrived in Atlantis, she doesn't want to eat them anymore.

Cid goes to the wheel and brings the ship back down into the hatch. "Looks like damage to the ship was minimal... We can use parts from the fire-powered ship to make the airship good as new." Cid suggested.

"Cid..." Salty started to say thank you to Cid, but then Cid stopped him.

"If you're just going to thank me, I don't need to hear it." Cid decline.

"We'll stay here and search for some clues about the earth crystal!" Mid explained.

"The skies are yours, kids. Now get out there!" Cid encouraged them as he and Mid step onto the bridge.

Music Cue: Strange Whispers (Kingdom Hearts)

"The evil warlock, Exdeath..." Naoto muttered.

"We must prevent him from returning..." Kida said.

"All that's left is the earth crystal!" Butch pointed out.

Salty goes to the wheel. "No point in dawdling... Let's go!" He shouted as they heading to the skies in the airship.

Music Cue: Under The Sea (Kingdom Hearts)

The group heads back to Atlantis where the Stormy greets them.

"Don't worry about us, Kida. We'll take care of the castle while you're away!" Stormy said. As Kida nodded to him in agreed.

"Won't you rest here in the palace tonight?" Tusky asked.

They all went to sleep in Atlantis, Later that night, Naoto wakes up and turns to Kida and Catherine.

Music Cue: Treasure Memories (Kingdom Hearts)

"Kida, Catherine, you awake?" Naoto asked as they began to awaken.

"Yes... Is something wrong?" Catherine asked.

"Not wrong, just...strange. I was just a wee lass when I fell overboard... Between that and the shock, I forgot a lot of my life here." She said as she looked away.

"Naoto- Robin...

"But for some reason, being back here... just being in this room is making those memories return..." She recalled as she began to remember the time she spend in Atlantis.

Flashback

Night time in Atlantis, Robin is studying while Geoffrey the Shark watching her.

"Cure... Cura... Curaga... Cure... Cura... Curaga..." She repeated as she tried to learn her magic.

"All right, that's enough for today." Geoffrey said.

"Phew... I'm pooped!" Robin panted as she look exhausted.

"Mera has asked you to put Kida to bed. Take care of that while I mark your test, please." Geoffrey said.

"Okay!" She accept as she starts to run out of the room.

"And come straight back here! No dawdling!" Geoffrey called out, much for Robin's depressed.

"Okay... Aw, man..." She complaint.

Robin leaves the room and enters the room with four beds and places sleeping Kida into one of them.

"Kida... Tomorrow, me 'n your Master are gonna ride the wind drake to the surface. Flyin' up high is s'posed t' be the bestest thing ever, Papa says. An' when you look down on them, all the people're s'posed to look like they cast Float on themselves!" She then blinked in confused. "Wait... Um, not Float, but Toad? Teleport? Uhh... Mini? Yeah, that's it, they look like they were Minied!" She said.

Meanwhile, Geoffrey is pacing his room, waiting for Robin to come back.

"She's late..." Geoffrey groaned.

Back to the Present

Back where Kida, Catherine and Naoto are, Catherine began to have a conversation with Kida and Naoto.

"Robin... How did you ended up here in Atlantis?" Catherine asked.

"5 years ago. When I was drowning Aquaman saved my life, and I began to have a new life in Atlantis before I left." Naoto said.

"I was just making sure... But... When I was a little kitten my sister left me on a mission and never came back... She was an Agent from M.E.O.W.S before I become one. And then she has gone into hiding and never came back, I was so worried about her so much... They told me that she went on a mission by seas with her friends. And I don't know how much she'll come back." Catherine explained.

"By sea... That's where Robin were when she arrived in Atlantis when she was drowning..." Kida recalled and then She and Robin realized what she meant." Wait! Are you saying that... Robin is your.." She began.

"Yes... My Sister..." Catherine answered.

Music Cue: La Pace (Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories)

And they make they makes Naoto gasped to here that, and then she began to remember everything about why Catherine cared for so much, and she began to cry. "So I do have a sister... And I... Didn't know... When I was on a mission, I was drowning and began to forget everything about M.E.O.W.S. and you... My god, I finally remembered now. I'm from Atlantis... I'm from the Surface."

"So you really were her sister... Now I know many you two look similar to each other. I can't believe it." Kida exclaimed and look so shock.

"Yeah, I figured it everything about what you said about my sister and how much time she spend in Atlantis while I don't... But I'm proud of her to have a great life." Catherine said.

Naoto look so speechless, but feel happy to hear what Catherine said... And she doesn't look so upset for not coming back for her, after their father left them. Kida look so happy for them to have reunion to each as she watch them hugged each other.

"Robin..." Kida said.

"Yeah?" Naoto asked.

"Perhaps we should keep this a secret from the chancellor for now. He would only make a big fuss if he knew, and certainly wouldn't let you leave the kingdom again..." Kida suggested.

"Even Salty and the other, I don't them to freak out that we are actually sister, okay." Catherine said to Naoto.

"Aye... And we have to get out there and find Eraqus..." Naoto said.

Next day, our heroes left Atlantis and head to the airship approaches the Ronka Ruins, an earthquake suddenly occurs.

Music Cue: Trouble (Persona 4)

"What's going on?" Diggs asked.

"Look! The town..." Gandalf shouted.

And they saw ruins suddenly rise into the air. Salty and his team hurries back to the airship's hatch, and Cid and Mid run towards them.)

"Cid! Mid! We've got an issue here..." Salty explained while he catch his breath.

"Save your breath..." Cid said to Salty.

"...'coz we saw the ruins through the monitor!" Mid finished.

The two climb on the ship and Mid pulls out a book. "This is bad...the earth crystal is way up there!" Mid pointed and that make Gandalf startled for what he said." The ancient Ronkans amplified the earth crystal to make their town float. But once they realized amplifying the crystal could make it shatter, they stopped the machine." Mid informed.

"Shake a leg, miscreants! Somebody's turned the machine back on!" Cid pointed out and that make Kida worried because she know who it is.

"It couldn't- you don't think that Eraqus..." Kida began, but then Naoto interrupted and she look serious

"Never! He would never do such a thing!" Naoto insisted.

"How're we supposed to get that high?" Diggs asked.

Cid pulls out another book. "With this..." He said

Mid look suprise for what his master shows. "...Adamantite! If we reinforced the ship with it, it'll fly higher! But we'll need to find some more..." Mid wondered as Gandalf raised his paw as everyone stares at him

"That's simple enough! That meteorite I came here in... I remember seeing some adamantite reserves inside!" Gandalf explained.

"Are you sure?" Angus asked while tilted his head.

"You calling me a liar!?" Gandalf yelled at Angus.

"No.. It's just that your memory's still kinda spotty, right?" Angus pointed out.

"Pish-posh! The adamantite part is clear as day!" Gandalf said with a grin.

"It's good a place as any to start. Let's go check it out." Gandalf declared.

"We'd'll stay and get things prepared." Cid said

"You guys hurry and bring us some adamantite!" Mid encouraged.

The two leave, Salty and his team flies the airship to the meteor, where they first met Kids and Gandalf. When they reach the meteor, Gandalf looks around the meteor.

Music Cue: Dive into the Hearts -Destati- (Kingdom Hearts)

"Hrm...It was around here, I'm sure of it..." He said to himself fiddles with the meteorite, and a door opens. "There! Inside there!"

They all enters the meteorite, grabbing the adamantite at the very back.

There it is!" Gandalf said as he grabbed the adamantite. "How about that! Pretty sharp memory, huh?" He grinned.

"How would an amnesiac like you know!?" Diggs pointed out as Gandalf laugh

"...Wait, are you mocking me?" He joked making Diggs look unamused.

Salty and his team tries to leave the meteor, which suddenly grows dark, Salty sense something that's coming. As he bring out his spear.

Battle Cue: Unavoidable Battle (Persona 3)

"There's something in here with us...watch out!" He said.

They are attacked by an Adamantoise, Salty and Gandalf are combining their attacks to the Adamantoise, and so does Diggs and Catherine, Butch use his special attack at the Adamantoise, Kida fire a flame arrow at it, Duncan and Angus are combining their attacks again at the Adamantoise, and they defeated it. Then they head back to hatch, where Cid and Mid come running to the ship. Gandalf gives them the adamantite.

Music Cue: Innocent Times (Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep)

"Great, you got the adamantite!" Cid said as he look impressed.

"Quick, give it here so we can install it! Salty, you guys take a break." Mid suggested

Cid and Mid take the adamantite and go inside the ship while Salty and the others leave the ship. The two rapidly work on the ship. Meanwhile, the group is sleeping in the worklab of the ruins. Salty and Diggs starts and wakes up, climbing out of bed as they yawned.

"Man... What a dream I had." Digg said.

"Me too... Weird... I dreamt that the airship was already finished..." Salty recalled about his dream.

Then Cid and Mid has come out of the room and look so excited.

"Rise and shine! It's done!" Cid shouted as Salty and Diggs freaks out.

"For Real!?" Diggs said in disbelief.

"Man, you work fast!" Salty commented as his friends are started to wake up.

"After you lift off will fly higher!" Cid informed.

"So with this, we can go to the floating ruins?" Kida asked. As Cid and Mid look at each other.

"Technically, yes, but... Well, take a gander at this." Cid said as he look at the book. "The floating city is equipped with a heavy defense system... If you don't disable it, you won't be able to enter.

"According to this book, the cannons are really powerful... Mid stated.

Music Cue: Trouble (Persona 3)

"But we must go!" Kida said.

"Or else Saix will be awaken." Diggs said.

"No question about it!" Catherine added.

"Me too." Naoto agreed.

"I don't even see the worry. What's a couple of overblown pop-guns against the likes of us!?" Gandalf comment.

"Look we have no time, we have to go find the Earth Crystal." Butch said.

"After we save the Earth Crystal, can we get ice cream?" Duncan asked.

"Yes. We can get Ice Cream. Once we protect the Earth Crystal" Angus answered.

"Cid, Mid, thanks for all your help." Salty thanked them and then look at his team. "Now, let's get to the crystal before it's too late!" He announced

They all heads for the airship, where Salty goes to the wheel. And he began to act as a Pirate again

"Yo-ho-ho, and stuff! Time to cast off!" He said.

The group heads for the ruined city and destroys the four cannons on the sides of the city.

"So much for their defenses!" Diggs commented.

Music Cue: Arabian Dream (Kingdom Hearts)

"Wait... What's that!?" Catherine exclaimed as she saw a soul Cannon appeared on the city.

"Cripes, look at the size of it!" Butch said.

"Guess there's one last thing to take care of...!" Naoto said as she bring out her dagger.

The party battles and defeats the Soul Cannon, revealing a hole.

"So, I guess that hole's the way in?" Salty guessed.

"Sure looks like it." Gandalf agreed.

"We'll know in a second!" Angus said.
