Chapter 10

"That," said Max as soon as they were back in the Gummi ship. He collapsed in the captain's seat and didn't move since. In fact he was so tired he had the ship running on auto-pilot, "was horrible. I never want to see a giant Heartless ever again."

"Yeah, I know what you mean. But, that's not the last we'll see of super-sized Heartless," Caelum commented. He scowled down at the scrapes on his hands. He gripped his staff too tightly during the battle his hands bled. When he used the Cure spell it healed his hands so they were nothing but scrapes. "That was just a prelude. Things will get tougher as time goes on."

"Great! We better stock up on Ethers and Potions, then."

"As much as I hate those huge battles," Arun said with a grin. He leaned back in his own chair, ignoring how sore he was actually feeling, "it's kinda fun to explore the worlds. Rapunzel's world was so much more different from Meryton or Hollow Bastion. I can't wait to see more!"

"Well, I don't," Caelum shot back. "I just want to go find Sora, warn him about what's going on, find your body, and get back to Hollow Bastion."

"Why? Are you tired already?" teased Arun.

"Yes! We've only been to one world, but we've been running around! Not only did we not find your body, we got into a huge battle. Of course I'm tired!"

"You'd think you'd be used to this by now. Didn't you and Arty tell me you guys fought a bunch of Heartless before you retook Hollow Bastion? You're such a weakling."

He ducked the fireball sent his way.

"Shut your trap before I burn it off," Caelum threatened. A fireball hovered in his hand waiting to incinerate something-specifically a part of Arun's body.

"Alright! Jeez, so touchy." Arun huffed. "So, where to now?"

Max brought up the map of the surrounding galaxy. It revealed all of the known worlds traveled through by Leon's group as well as Sora's. Rapunzel's world was now included on the map. He gazed from one unnamed world to another. "Hm...I'm not sure. After that first world, I'm kind of scared to see what other worlds are like."

"Aw, c'mon, Max! Don't let something like that keep you from exploring. Where's your sense of adventure?" Arun questioned.

"It's hiding in a box at the moment," Max deadpanned.

"Now you're just being pessimistic."

"Says the pot to the kettle," Caelum scoffed.

Arun glared at him. "What's that supposed to mean? I'm not a pessimist."

"No, you just don't believe in other worlds."

"For Light's sake, Caelum! I said that over a year ago! Things are different now."

"It was a year for me. For you it's been a few days. People don't change in a few days."

"That's not fair! I was stuck in the darkness after I lost my heart!" Arun shouted, hotly. "Give me some credit! Not all of us can stay a stuck up asshole all year like you have!"

"What did you say?" Caelum asked in a dangerously calm tone. "You're still that moronic simpleton from back then. At least I managed to mature."

"Please, not now! Don't do this to me now!" Max pleaded to whatever deity who controlled fate. Please, don't let Arun and Caelum fight! He found out by now he didn't like their fighting. How did Arty deal with this?

"You call yourself mature? All I see is a stubborn asshole who can't do anything useful," Arun retorted. His temper began to spike if his hands clenching the armrests of his chair were any indication.

"Speak for yourself. I've been more useful than you in an entire year than your measly few days," said Caelum, coldly. "While I was busy protecting Arty after you practically died in front of her, you've been sleeping away in the darkness. You did nothing when I had to listen to Arty cry in her sleep over your death."

Arun had no idea how to reply to that. His words struck home and smashed everything inside. He spoke harshly of what he was recently afraid to acknowledge. He caused some of his friends so much pain he might never be able to heal. By all rights, Caelum was correct in his accusations. He wasn't afraid to hurt Arun where it hurt and it did. Arun could never forgive himself for the scar he left on Arty. Caelum was right.

It didn't mean he wanted to admit it.

"You son of a-" He began to spit in built up anger. He rose out of his seat to go over to Caelum and give him a good punch in the face. The sound of alarms blared throughout the cockpit blared, interrupting him. The sheer volume caused him to wince. "Dang it! What is that?"

Max already began to type away at the controls and quickly examined the screen. What he saw must have been bad, because if it was possible, he went pale. "No...No way. This can't be right."

"Max, what's wrong?" Caelum asked, calming down immediately.

"The ship's sensors have picked up unusual readings."

"What's that mean?"

Max didn't reply. Instead, he began to press a series of buttons. The blast shield whirred for a moment before focusing in on a small distance close by. Their eyes widened when they saw a bright light expanding closely through space, a ring of heat and rocks blasting on through towards them. When it reached them it instantly rocked the Gummi ship and everyone quickly held onto to something to not fall over.

"Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no." Max furiously pressed buttons and pulled levers. "This is bad. This is really bad."

"Max, what is that?" Caelum demanded.

"A star went supernova. I've only heard about this happening in books, but I've never seen one happening!"

"And that's bad?"

"Very. Guys, buckle up, because this is gonna be a bumpy ride."

For the first time Arun and Caelum did as Max said. They knew when things were about to get serious. They may act out a lot, but even they knew when to calm down.

Max took hold of the ship's steering wheel. He jerked it hard, turning it in a circle so the ship turned around. With another press of a few buttons the ship's engines hummed in a high pitch. The thrusters shot the ship in the opposite direction so hard the three had to lean back from the movement.

The Gummi ship repeatedly rocked from the explosive force of gases erupting from the dying star. Arun dug his nails into the seat, his heart jumping in rhythm with the pieces of rocks denting against the ship's shield. He chanced a glance out the window and didn't like what he saw.

The bright star emitted dark gases ringed with red heat. Fire and rock clusters spit from the massive cloud following closely behind them to impale anything within the immediate area. It was quickly gaining up on them. They were in trouble. It didn't help the damn alarms were blaring loudly.

The ship nearly spun when something hit them from behind. If it weren't for their seat belts, they would have propelled out of the blast shield. Once Max recovered, Arun noticed they were moving slower and the gas clous was closer than ever.

Tapping away and switching his attention across several meters, Max muttered furiously, panicked.

"No, no, no! This can't be happening! We're down a thruster! If we take any more damage, we're done for!" He tapped away at the control panel. "Guys! Between the two of you, who has better aim?"

"Huh?" Arun and Caelum uttered in confusion.

"Just answer!"

The two boys quickly racked their brains. If Arty was there, they would say she was the better marksman. But, between the two of them it was probably Arun. Under pressure, Caelum had a hard time being able to aim. Arun excelled under pressure.

"I am!" Arun shouted, unsure of why Max wanted to know.

Max pressed a large green button visible to Arun. The floor just a few inches from Arun's feet opened an unseen panel. What rose up was a stand holding another steering wheel, but it held two red buttons where the thumbs rested. There were several other buttons on it as well ranging from arrows to one marked with an L. Then, from behind Arun's seat a wide, skinny, arched screen panel emerged. It folded down in front of Arun's eyes. In place it was at first black. When it whirred to life he could suddenly see the back of the ship to watch the fiery rocks repeatedly dent against them.

"Arun, I need you to keep any more debris from hitting the ship," Max quickly explained. "The arrow buttons let you change your view of the ship from the front, sides, and behind us. The cannons change with your view. The two red thumb buttons are the cannons and the L button uses the lasers. I can't drive and shoot at the same time so I'm counting on you to keep us safe. Got it? Good!"

There was no other explanation as he abruptly barrel rolled the ship. The world turned upside down and back again in a mere millisecond to dodge a particularly large piece of space rock from crushing them. Arun wasn't entirely sure what he got himself into. Their lives were on the line, though, and that's all the incentive he needed. He took hold of the steering wheel and started firing.

Arun fired at whatever dared to come near the ship. Thanks to the built-in aiming system for the lasers, whatever came close to them the system locked in on it to allow Arun to use the lasers. For the cannons he just hit whatever caught his line of sight. With Max swerving the ship this way and that he tried his best to destroy anything from hitting them again. He wasn't going to die out here in space. How lame of a death would that be?

Max and Arun worked together as best they could in the circumstances. Max did his best to avoid larger pieces of the space rocks while Arun quickly shifted between views to fire at the smaller ones. All in all, they were a pretty good team because they managed to avoid sustaining any more damage to the ship. With the way they were going it was possible they were going to escape.

They spoke too soon.

Arun shot at a particularly large rock coming from behind the ship when he noticed something out of the corner of his eye. Looking, he gasped when the cloud of gases had all but disappeared. Instead, off in the distance all he could see was an unending black void sucking in the gases and rocks. Unfortunately, from the sharp jerk in that direction the void was sucking them in as well.

"Oh, c'mon! Seriously? It turned into a black hole!" Max yelped, his voice beginning to quiver.

"I'm pretty sure that's a bad thing?" Caelum chuckled, nervously.

"You have no idea."

Whatever replies Arun and Caelum could say died when the ship lurched backwards towards the black abyss.

"We're being sucked in!" Max yelled. He turned the wheel as far as it could to the side to try to turn them away from the black hole. The force was too much as the wheel worked against him. "Guys, help!"

Arun and Caelum unstrapped themselves out of their seats. They didn't care if that was unsafe. If they didn't do something, they were dead anyway. They grabbed both sides of the wheel to pull/push it towards the left. Arun could compare this to playing tug-of-war except it was an entity less disaster sucking all the light away.

Their efforts were in vain. No matter how much they turned the wheel or if Max used the thrusters they were slowly being pulled back. They had to do something and fast.

While struggling to push the wheel towards Caelum, who was pulling it, a tiny light blinked out of the corner of Arun's eye. It was barely noticeable in the red blaring alarms around the cockpit. It came from the radar screen Max consulted when the supernova happened. Arun saw the ship in the center with tiny dots disappearing in the general direction of the black hole.

What he found interesting were the orange wave lines rushing from the black hole. From what he could tell, they were energy waves from the supernova earlier. They looked like they ended as soon as a large one began to build from around the black hole. He suddenly had an idea.

Arun knew what he was about to do was pretty stupid. In fact it was so stupid even a child would smack him for coming up with it. He might get them killed! But, at the moment, it was their best shot.

He turned the wheel towards the black hole.

It was easy enough to do so when the gravitational pull was coming from there. Caelum and Max had no chance to react other than scream when the ship lurched to the side.

"What are you doing!?" Caelum yelled. "You're gonna get us killed!"

He grabbed hold of the wheel once more. It was too late to pull the other way.

Darkness filled the cockpit.

Arun stood his ground, staring intensely at the radar.

Wait for it...Wait for it...he told himself, counting each second they spent in the abyss. Then, he smiled in triumph with one last look at the screen. NOW!

Red hot light suddenly filled the cockpit. While Caelum and Max shielded their eyes, Arun twisted the wheel once more and slammed his flat palm on a big blue button.

The entire ship lurched forward away from the hole. The engine's roar filled the room as they were suddenly put into overdrive. Arun, the only one who hadn't thought to grab hold of something stable, flew backwards into the metal wall in the back. He gasped as his back hit the hard surface, the back of his head banging against the steel. He crumpled to the floor with stars dancing across his vision.

The last thing he saw were the blaring red lights and Caelum yelling something at him before his eyelids slid closed.

He sat on the edge of a ledge on the tallest hillside in the entire world with a magnificent view of the land before him. It was nighttime, so while the sky above was a deep black millions of bright tiny stars lit up the entire world. He looked up at them in wonder.

"Hey..." he said, breaking the silence between him and his companion.

"Hm?" From the soft tone, it was a young woman.

He turned to her. What little he could tell the woman was a few years older than him. However, it was impossible to tell who she was because her face was fuzzy. No matter how hard he tried he couldn't see her face or any defining features.

"Y'ever wonder what what stars are? Where light comes from?"

She thought for a moment. "Hmm... Well, they say-"

"That every star up there is another world," said another deeper voice from behind.

"Huh?" Both him and the woman looked over their shoulders to the side. It was a tall man-again, probably older than him-but he couldn't see his face as well.

The woman smiled, her lips moving to say a name. He never heard it.

"Yep, hard to believe there are so many worlds out there besides our own." He walked towards them, stopping just in front of him. "The light is their hearts, and it's shining down on us like a million lanterns."

"What?" He was confused. What the heck did that mean? "I don't get it."

"In other words, they're just like you, Ven," he answered with a smile.

He stood up to face his older friend (were they friends? It sure felt like it). Craning his head, he vaguely wondered if he would ever be as tall as...It was tiring to have everyone look down on HIM while he had to look up. Not to mention embarrassing.

"What does that mean?" he asked once more.

"You'll find out someday, I'm sure."

"I wanna know now."

"You're too young to know now."

"Quit treating me like a kid."

The two were surprised when the woman starting laughing. They glanced at one another in confusion.

"Hey, what are you laughing at?" the man asked her, slightly offended. Though, deep down they all knew he was joking.

"I can't help it," she laughed. "You two would make the weirdest brothers."

"Huh?" Brothers? What on Earth was she talking about?

Unsure of what that meant, he started to laugh along with his friends. For some odd reason, he found it funny.

It was amazing how well he got along with his friends. Even though they were both older than him, he liked knowing they cared about him. He wondered if he would ever be able to catch up with them ability wise.

As the youngest, he was often the weakest. His friend...was bigger and stronger than him so a simple shove would knock him over. His other friend...was the best in magical abilities. She could study a spell in a single day and master it without any problems. He only knew spells he could defend himself with. It wasn't fair how weak he was compared to them, but it made him feel better when they said he was too fast for the likes of them. That was his strongest point against them both.

Though they were different in many ways, he was happy. He was glad he had friends like them by his side. Without them he wouldn't know where he would be.

Despite what was happening the next day, he hoped their friendship would never change. Through thick and thin, he didn't want anything about their friendship to change.

Never...

When Arun woke up he was vaguely aware of something nudging his cheek. It was slightly slimy in texture and smooth. He groaned, waving it off as he rolled on his side.

"Aqua, just five more minutes," he whined.

There was an odd purring sound in his ear and the nudging persisted. He continued to wave it away, burying his head in his arms.

"C'mon, leave me alone! I'm tired."

"I'm tired!" his voice echoed in a higher, annoying pitch. Then, the purring continued excitedly.

A cold substance poured on his face. Arun yelped, jerking into a sitting position.

"GYAH! Get it off! Get it off!" He wiped at his face and almost thought he was under attack. That is, until he heard the laughter.

"Arun, are you okay?" said Max. However, he was holding back his snickering. He sounded more amused than concerned.

Arun blinked several times and allowed his eyes to focus. But, when they did focus he met with a pink face and big eyes up close to his face.

"Hello!" said the pink floating mass in that annoying pitch.

The thing in his face startled him. He yelped, jumping back to get away from whatever the hell it was only to trip over something. He slammed against a wall where several things including a pail landed onto him. Mentioned pail landed on top of his head to blind him once more. More laughter echoed in his ears. From the sound of it there were quite a few people there with Max.

"We-We really shouldn't have done that," Max laughed.

"Who cares? Arun deserved it," Caelum said somewhere nearby. He was chuckling smugly.

"Ay, a bit of jokin' around t'ain't hurtin' no one," said another gruff but whimsical voice that oddly sounded like a sailor.

"Goddamnit!" Arun cursed. He lifted up the pail to yank off his head. He glared at the group of people around him. He might have paused at the oddly assorted crew with several species that weren't human, but he was too busy glaring at his two companions standing nearby with laughter in their eyes. "You assholes! That wasn't funny!"

"I don't know, Arun. It was pretty funny to us," Caelum stated, his arms folded with a smug look on his face.

Anger and humiliation boiled in the pit of his stomach. He stood up from the mess of ropes and cloths slowly, a dark look in his eyes.

"You know what else is funny? A fist in that girly face!" Arun lunged at Caelum, fist prepped to smash into that smug bastards face. But, something caught the back of his jacket and lifted him in the air. His feet barely reached the ground. Once again, he cursed his short stature. Whipping his head around, he saw a burly man dressed much like a sailor in his worn shirt and striped pants. Yet, his right limbs and right eye were mechanical in nature. He recognized what he was from his books. "You crusty ol' cyborg! Let me go!"

"Now, now. Cool yer jets, bucko. Cap'n's rules are no fightin' on this here ship," he said.

"And who the fuck is this captain?"

"That would be me."

The feminine voice which spoke rang as clear as a bell among the jaunts of deepened drums.

Out of the crowd of rough men (he was sure they were the males of their species a woman stepped forward. She was tall and thin, dressed in a blue coat and tight pants. Her expression was stern with narrowed cat–like eyes looking down on him. His back automatically straightened. This woman had the same aura as the captains of the ships in Meryton's docks.

"I am Amelia, captain of this vessel, the RLS Legacy,"she said in a crisp and precise accent.

The cyborg placed him down again. Arun snapped to attention, resisting the urge to salute.

"A pleasure to meet you, ma'am," he said in a formal tone. Max gave him a strange look because of it. "Permission to speak, captain?"

"Permission granted."

"Why are we on your ship?"

"Remember the black hole?" Max asked before Captain Amelia could speak. "We managed to escape it thanks to your quick thinking."

"Yeah, I thought he was trying to kill us," muttered Caelum.

"But, because of that, we burned out our engines and thrusters," he continued, ignoring Caelum's input. "We were stuck floating along when this ship came by. Turns out they got caught up in that mess, too. They took in our ship and here we are."

"Oh." That makes sense. Max and Caelum were already acquainted with the crew. He must have been knocked out for awhile for that to happen. Speaking of which... "Did you really have to play that prank on me? You couldn't have shaken me or something?"

"We tried! You wouldn't wake up. Jim's the one who suggested we use little Morph to get you up."

"Sorry 'bout that," said a young teen on the verge of being a man's. "Morph seemed like a good idea to wake you up. I don't know how many times he's done it to me."

Arun hadn't realized there was a younger boy on the ship. The teen, Jim, was dressed a lot like the other men with a loose white shirt and a large coat. If Arun knew any better, it was like he woke up wearing those clothes. He looked like the type who didn't care about the world and was too lazy to do anything. He also had this air about him that was a bit familiar, though he couldn't place a finger on it.

"Who's Morph?" Arun asked.

In response the purring from earlier started up just behind him. With another yelp he whirled around, summoning his keyblade to face the enemy. Instead of an enemy, he found a little pink floating blob with too wide eyes. When Arun summoned his keyblade the blob gave a small shriek and zipped over to the Cyborg to hide behind him. He peeked around his head that would have made girls go, 'Aw!'

"This here's little Morph," introduced the Cyborg. He also tipped his hat. "Name's John Silver! Bu' call me ol' Silver. What be your name, pup?"

"...Arun," he answered. He was a little put out with the ridiculous name he called him. He wasn't a pup! He was a vicious grown mad dog! Okay, he may resemble a puppy dog at the moment, but he was still tough!

Someone suddenly snorted back laughter. It was a man who was of a dog-like nature like Max, except he was dressed a bit more finely than the rest of the crew. He cleared his throat at the sight of Arun's small glare.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to laugh. I just realized the meaning of your name," he said in a sophisticated voice. "Did you know your name means 'dawn' in another language? And your friend's name, Caelum, is the name of a constellation and means, 'of the heavens?' I find it quite interesting your names are astronomical in nature."

"Huh?" Arun didn't understand what he just said. His name? He never really knew the meaning of his name since it was what his caretakers named him. And now that he thought about it, he found it kind of interesting. Another thought popped into his head and he snickered. "Dawn, stars, moon."

"What are you talking about?" Caelum asked. He looked at him like he lost his mind.

"Have you noticed our and Arty's names? Think about the meaning of Arty's name. And think of them in the order of the sun, stars, and moon."

Caelum thought for a moment before he got it as well. But, instead of laughing, he sighed.

"Oh, ha, ha, ha. The stars separate the sun and the moon. Very funny," Caelum dryly replied. With a roll of his eyes he turned to Captain Amelia, missing Arun stick out his tongue at his back. Max and Morph snickered at that. "Now that our friend's awake, can we talk about our position? As much as we appreciate you helping us, our ship's still damaged."

She nodded. "Yes, I did say it would be best to wait for him to wake before discussing. I'd like to have all of your opinions on this matter. I've put some thought into it already. It seems the best thing to do is allow you to accompany us on your voyage until either you fix your ship or we reach Montressor."

"I think we can fix our ship," Max pondered in thought. "I mean, it might take a few days at the most, but I can fix it before we get to Montressor."

"You sure about that?" asked Arun. He was doubtful Max could fix that kind of damage in a mere few days.

He shrugged. "Maybe. I've got a few Gummis that can replace what was burned out. If nothing else, I can call Arty. It's not like the communication box is broken."

"A few days...That means we're stuck on this boat for awhile, huh?" Caelum asked, scowling He didn't seem to like that.

Amelia nodded. "Yes, that would seem to be the case."

Then, she gave both Arun and Caelum a curious but studious look. She eyed them up and down. Quite frankly, with her slitted eyes Arun could have sworn she was a predator eying her prey before striking. "And if that's so, I would like both of you to work for me. I'd like some able men I can trust under my command."

"Hey!" some of the crew protested.

"Ain't we trustworthy?"

"If it ain't for us, you'd be like Mr. Arrow!"

The one who said that ducked just as a plasma ball sailed over him. It seared his hat in the process.

"It's dangerous to speak ill of the dead," Amelia warned. The barrel of her pistol smoked from the shot she made. No one else made a remark as she replaced the gun in her coat. "And, as I've said before, you lot are a bunch of sniveling galoots who I happen to command. I'd trust you as far as I can throw you. And believe me, it's not very far. At the very least I have leverage over these gentlemen so they'll have to obey me."

"What kind of leverage? I'm not the type to listen to just anyone," Arun stated, suspicious and slightly insulted.

"I'm sure you'll listen when I decide to let the three of you drift through space and suffer from cabin fever. Unless you're certain help will come by quite easily again?"

"Captain, surely you wouldn't?" the dog-like man asked with a nervous chuckle.

"Actually, Dr. Doppler, I would. Should they cross me, they'll wish they were drifting through space. I could do far worse."

The worst part was most of the crew knew she wasn't kidding. It was evident by the looks on their faces.

Arun laughed. "I respect that. You're a woman who's not afraid to make hard decisions."

"Of course. Would I be captain otherwise?" she replied in kind.

"So, you'll keep us on your ship as long as we work for you?" Caelum summarized. "Why? You've got a full crew here. Where are you even headed?"

"That's a need-to-know basis. I can't tell you unless you agree to be a part of my crew until your ship is fixed. Also, with the damage the supernova caused us, we need all the help we can get. After all, I dislike the thought of freeloaders on my ship. If you lazy louts've got legs, then you best use them. Do you not agree?"

"Um, do I need to work, too?" Max asked, confused.

"No. You will need to fix your ship. As a matter of fact, perhaps Dr. Doppler can assist you?" Amelia suggested.

"Well, I'm not sure," Dr. Doppler admitted, rubbing his neck nervously. "I know a bit about the components and skeleton of the use of Gummis but-"

"Splendid! I'm sure you'll learn something new." She turned to Arun and Caelum, leaving Dr. Doppler stuttering. "In the meantime, Arun and Caelum, you will be working under Mr. Silver alongside Mr. Hawkins. You will take orders from Mr. Silver unless I say otherwise."

"What!?" those mentioned exclaimed.

"Cap'n, please! I've already got my hands full with Jimbo here!"

"I'm not working for HIM!"

"Why can't I work with Max?"

"That's really not necessary!"

The four were silenced by an icy glare.

Amelia stood with her hands behind her erect back. They shivered. Arun really didn't like that silent commanding look in her eyes. He always had a problem with authority, but he knew he shouldn't think about crossing her. It wasn't worth it.

"I've already made up my mind and I will not change it. Have I made myself clear?" They grumbled. Her glare intensified. "I said, have I made myself clear, gentlemen?"

Silver, Jim, and Arun snapped to attention.

"Yes, cap'n!"

Caelum was the only one not to respond. To Arun and Max' immense surprise Caelum returned Amelia's look. His fist was clenched at his side, shaking.

"No, captian. You haven't," he replied with gritted teeth.

Amelia appraised him.

"Oh? I thought I did. Was it not clear, Doctor?" she asked, tilting her head to Dr. Doppler.

"I-Well, yes, I suppose," he stammered, surprised she would ask him.

"No. You said we'd work for you on this ship, not where we're going. Now that you're forcing us to, you haven't told us where this ship's going."

"Hm, yes. I did say that, didn't I?" Amelia chuckled and began walking to the upper deck. "This ship is headed for the one place in this entire universe no one has been able to find. A place of legends-one beyond your wildest imagination."

"And where's that?" Max asked, mystified.

She stopped and looked over her shoulder down to them. A smirk full of mystery and secrets only a woman could accomplish spread her small mouth triumphantly.

"Tell me. What do you know of Treasure Planet?"

XXX

Ah, sorry this is so late! College distracted me with so many papers due I couldn't find the inspiration to write this chapter. Honestly, it's not my best. I didn't know how to introduce the new world in any other way than this. And, I'm sure all of you are happy to know it's Treasure Planet! Yay! Just so you know we won't be getting into much action next chapter since the next part after the black hole scene is actually when they find Treasure Planet. So, prepare for quite a bit of dialogue in the next chapter.

Anyhow, I shall announce the answer of my question last chapter. The names of the attacks used by Arun in Rapunzel's world was Ventus' command style, Fever Pitch, and Vanitas' shotlock command, Dark Cannon. A lot of people answered either one or the other, but only one got them both. So, congrats to Grandshadowseal! I will PM you the details about your cameo in the story. We'll talk more there.

Well, looks like that's all I have to say. Fun fact time!

Disney Fun Facts:

Treasure Planet is a sci-fi adapation of Robert Louis Stevenson's novel, Treasure Island. There are a few hints to credit the novel from which the movie drew inspiration from. The name of the ship Captain Amelia and her crew use to reach Treasure Planet is the RLS Legacy. Of course, the RLS in the name is the author's initials.
