Disclaimer: Own nothing but Youko. Al belongs to Jenjen (thanks for pointing that out squeaky-channers! )
Other: When Genie says Al, he means Aladdin. And the girl AL sounds like "El" owo; Sorry for not mentioning this earlier. I have a very bad memory.
---------------------------------
Youko jolted awake as someone gently shook her. 'Only a dream,' she thought, relieved. She looked to the side and jumped when she realized a cloaked person was only inches
away from her face. She was about to let out a scream but the person quickly covered her mouth. They put there finger to there mouth, telling her to be quiet. She was about to say
something, but a cold voice stopped her. "And now?" it sent shivers down her spine. Where has she heard that voice? "The Heartless are searching for it now," A new voice replied.
"I'm certain we'll find it soon," it belonged to a man. Youko sat up, to see who was talking, but the cloaked person yanked her back down behind some boxes. "Don't let them see
you," they whispered. She nodded.
A red parrot squawked somewhere nearby and flew down and landed on the man's shoulder. "Jafar! I looked everywhere for Jasmine!" It said. 'Wow….He's very different from the
animals back home,' she thought, trying to peak through the crates, with no luck. "I searched everywhere for Jasmine! Its like she disappeared like Magic! " The parrot continued.
"Hn. The girl is more trouble than she's worth. Agrabah is full of holes for rats to hide in." the man growled. "But why worry about Princess Jasmine? With or without her, this world
will be ours when we find the Keyhole." Youko held back a gasp. 'Heartless? The Keyhole? They want to take over this world!' she thought, her heart racing. "We need all Seven
Princesses of Heart to open the final door. Any fewer is useless," the woman said. "Well, if the princess is that important we'll find her," "Hmph. See to it that you do," and with that,
the lady was gone. The man summoned a few Bandit Heartless. "Find Jasmine. And bring her to me at once." As soon as Youko heard the footsteps disappear, she turned to look at
the mysterious person.
"Who are you?" she asked softly. The figured pulled the hood of there cloak down. It was a girl, who was probably a year or two older then Youko. She was fairly tan, had big dark
brown eyes, and had black hair, which she kept back in a long braid. She was very beautiful. "Jasmine," she said warmly. Youko smiled. "Im Youko," "Your clothes are different. Your
not from around here." Youko shook her head. "No im not. I come from somewhere far away. But those people. They're using Heartless. There bad people," Jasmine nodded. "My
father was disposed of by Jafar. The man you heard speaking. He wants something called the Keyhole, and apparently he needs me for something," she explained. "Ok," she stood.
"I wont let him get you. I'll stop him, but of course, I cant do it alone. Jasmine, you need to find a better hiding place ok? I'll be back," "Where are you going?" Jasmine asked,
standing. "I'm going to find my brother and my friends. They'll help us out and stop this Jafar," she smiled.
It had been who knows how long and Youko still couldn't find anyone. She looked behind all the crates, shops, and a few houses hoping to find her friends, with no luck.
Finally, after about 15 more minutes, she caught a familiar scent. "Well, that was certainly a...warm welcome." Al's voice drifted to her ears. The small girl came around a corner, and
shaking out of her hair and examining her new cuts. "Al!" Youko cried, pulling the girl into a death hug. "Are you alright? What happened?" "I wont be alright….if you don't let go
soon!" Al gasped. Youko quickly let go and blushed. "I'm…I'm sorry," she apologized. "Whatever," Al breathed. "All I remember is falling out of the Gummi ship, then when I woke up,
this thing was jumping on me," She pointed to a monkey who jumped onto her shoulder. "Oh…he's cute," Youko smiled. "but where are the others?" Al shrugged. The monkey
jumped off of her shoulder and screamed something. "Uh….I don't speak whatever you are," Al mumbled. "Um….I think he wants us to follow," Youko tried to translate. It nodded and
ran off. The girls followed.
The monkey led them to a pole and climbed it. "Up there?" Al looked at her skirt. "Mhm." Youko replied, climbing up the pole just as the monkey had. Al's eye twitched, but followed.
It turns out, the pole went up into a run down house. Youko scanned the room. It looked pretty nice for a place that had boards over the windows and holes in the walls. Oh, and
there was a carpet struggling to get out from under a block.
Wait, what?
"Oh my God. A living rug." Al poked it, and the carpet collapsed to the floor. "We should help it! Help me move this, Youko." She shoved at the block, and Youko pushed with all her
might. It took only a few seconds and the carpet flew around the room once before stopping in front of us. It nodded, then laid down. "What the…? " Al looked at it confused. The
monkey jumped on it and pointed to the girls. "He…he wants us to get on," Youko said, stepping on. "Are you su-" Al jumped on. "Yip Yip! " She shouted. The carpet didn't move.
Youko and the monkey stared at her. "Shut up." Al mumbled. The monkey screeched, and the carpet took off full speed, knocking them back. Everyone grabbed on for dear life as the
carpet sped off to the desert.
…..
"Woah! Watch out!" Al jumped and fell to the ground as Sand Bandit Heartless suddenly shot out of the ground, attacking them. Youko screamed as the carpet jerked wildly, sending
her hurtling to earth. She quickly got up and kicked a heartless away. "Fire!" Al set one of them one fire. The Bandit ran into another one and exploded, killing both. She smirked.
"Freeze!" Youko shouted, covering one with ice, then kicking it into another. They shattered. Youko sighed, while Al simply smiled. They scattered.
Finally the heartless stopped appearing and Youko slumped. "T-too many…" she sat down to catch her breathe. "We should hurry though….before more show," Al said between
breathes. As soon as she said that however, around 10 heartless jumped out of the ground. Youko squeaked. Al, not wanting to use up the rest of her magic, grabbed Youko by her
hood and took off full speed.
"Leave us alone!" Al screamed irritated, punching a heartless in the face. They have been chased for some time now. "Did you hear something'?" A voice carried to Youko's ears. " I
think I'm seeing things, but isn't that-" "YOOOOOOOOOUKO! AAAAAAAAAL!" Sora screamed a few meters away. Both girls stopped in there tracks and looked over. Sora grinned
sheepishly, up to his shoulders in quick sand. Youko gasped. "Brother……wait, where's Kyle?" she squeaked, wondering what to do. "Well you see, Kyle tried to get us out….but
sank," Sora explained, motioning towards two black antennae sticking up.. Youko stared at him wide eyed. "K-Kyle!! Can she breathe? Can Heartless even breath?!" "Only you guys
would be dumb enough to get stuck in quick sand," Al rolled her eyes. "Look who's talking!" he motion towards her foot, which was consumed in quick sand. "What?!" She nearly
screamed. "Only you would be dumb enough to get stuck in quicksand." Donald mocked. "Shut up you big chicken!" she kicked sand in his face. "Wack! Why you little-" "Youko help!"
Sora yelled over them. Youko looked over at them panicked, and back at the approaching Heartless. "I…I don't know….!" she shook. Al growled, trying to yank her foot out, but to no
avail. "Just don't move and you wont sink as fast!" "Wait! I think I….got it!" Donald held his staff up. "Zero-Gravira!" He shouted, and he, Sora, Goofy, Al and Kyle rose out of the
sand and landed beside Youko. "Your ok!" she sighed in relief. "But we need to take care of the Heartless!" Sora said, slashing through one. They scattered, each taking on 3.
Minutes later, the Heartless were gone. "We have to go to Agrabah!" Youko said, pulling Sora back to the large city. "Huh? Why?" He asked. "Because we need to help Jasmine! This
man wants to find the Keyhole and take over this world!" "Why did you say so?!" He yelled, now dragging her.
"This way!" Youko led off to the un boarded entrance, Kyle on her head and everyone else close behind.
Walking into a little alleyway, Youko knocked on a crate. "Jasmine…" "Who's there?" Jasmine stood up slowly. "Hello?" Youko smiled. "I brought them,"
Jasmine explained to them what happened. "So...Jafar's the one controlling the Heartless then?" Sora asked. Jasmine nodded. "He's desperately looking for something-- something
he calls the 'Keyhole'. Jafar caught me trying to escape, but he helped me."
"Who?" Al crossed her arms.
"We were hiding nearby, but he left a while ago to take care of something…"
"Who?!" Al asked again."
"Oh, I hope Aladdin's all right."
Sora patted Al on the head. "There ya go."
But then a new voice said, "Aladdin? Where might I find this street rat?" They looked up to see a man in black and red with a cobra staff standing on the ledge above us. "Jasmine,
allow me to find you more suitable company, my dear princess. These little rats won't do, you see."
Sora jumped and called her key blade and Youko and Goofy stood in front of Jasmine, blocking the man's way to her. Al motioned to the exit, still looking up at who was presumed to
be Jafar. "Jasmine, run!" she said.
She took off and Youko took out her Keyblade. Jafar grinned wickedly. "Ah, the children who hold the key." Bandit Heartless appeared by the man's sides. As they leapt down to their
level, he simply walked off.
These Heartless were smarter than some of the others they'd faced. They learned how to block their attacks and force them against the quintet. Still, it didn't take long to get rid of
them. Once they were gone, Sora and Donald clambered up onto the ledge Jafar had been on before with the help of the crates Jasmine had been hiding behind. Shadows were up
there, but Kyle got rid of them quick enough. A keyhole was also up there, but it wasn't the Keyhole they were looking for. Sora released it, and they heard a gate open somewhere
else.
They hopped across the shutters next to the Keyhole, and they fell as soon as they touched them, so they had to wait for Goofy and Youko, who had fallen with the shutters. Then
they continued on into Main Street again. They ran across some awnings, having to deal with some Pot Spiders, these evil, possessed pots, along the way. They sprouted legs and
tried to run into them. But, Goofy took care of those.
"Is nothing normal anymore?" Youko mumbled. Al shrugged. "I think we gave up normal when we came along with Sora." The boy scratched his head. "But, where do we go now?"
At that moment, the flying carpet zoomed in front of them. "Wow! A flying carpet! " Sora stared wide eyed. Carpet motioned towards the gates and flew off. "I think it wants us to
follow it to the desert," Goofy suggested. Al sighed. "The desert? Again? Are you kidding?" She fanned herself. "I'm burning up as it is!"
Sora shrugged. "I'm fine."
Youko smiled. "But we used to live on an island, remember?"
"...Oh, yeah."
Donald squawked. "Let's follow the carpet!"
So they did. The carpet flew overhead and then stopped in front of them once they were outside the gates.
"I think it wants us to come along..." Sora touched a tassel on the carpet and it nodded. He grinned. "All aboard."
They got onto the carpet, it was a little crowded, so Youko sat in Goofy's lap and Al, who was terrified of falling off, clung to Sora. But, anyway, the carpet flew out deeper into the
desert. It seemed to get steadily darker as they traveled, and the carpet dropped them off in a place surrounded by purple-ish rocks. There was a man wearing a purple vest stuck
inside quick sand, who was quickly falling. But, before they could help him, Bandits emerged out of the sand. The man struggled to keep his head over the sand, and Goofy and
Donald dealt with Heartless. Sora wasn't going to just let him suffocate after all.
He got close to him, but more Bandits popped up. The man shook himself part way free and pulled out a lamp. He rubbed it and said, "Genie, get rid of these guys!" Red and blue
smoke billowed out of the lamp, mixing together to make purple every now and then, and a giant blue man appeared out of the smoke with a yell. He swung his arm around and
said, "Wish Number One, coming right up!" He snapped his fingers and the Heartless disappeared.
"Ah I see….thanks Sora," The man with the lamp smiled at Sora.
"Aladdin, what're you doing out here?" Sora asked the 'street rat'.
"Same old stuff. Hunting legendary treasure."
Youko looked over at him. "Treasure?"
He laughed. "Oh, yeah. Just paid a visit to the Cave of Wonders." Carpet settled on the sand, and Aladdin grinned. "I found that magic carpet." Then he pulled out the lamp. "And
this lamp. Legend has it that whoever holds the lamp can summon the--"
The Genie interrupted him. "Please, kid, leave the intros to a professional." He danced around. "The one, the only GENIE OF THE LAMP!" He grabbed the lamp and rubbed it, then
tossed it back to Aladdin. "Rub-a-dub-dub the lamp and have your dearest wishes granted." He flew over to Aladdin and tossed some confetti. "Today's winner is...Aladdin!" He
violently shook the man's hand. "Congratulations!"
Donald gaped. "Any wish?"
Genie put his hand on Donald's face to stop him, then wagged his finer. "Patience, my fine, feathered friend!" The Genie suddenly tripled, and held out three fingers each. "Any three
wishes! A one wish--" One Genie vanished. "A two wish--" The second did, too. "A three wish. Then I make like a banana and split!" Then he disappeared, too. "Our lucky winner
made his first wish--" Genie leaned in next to Sora and Al. "And let me tell you what a doozy that wish was." Then the Genie doubled and went back to back. "So he has two left!"
The Genie burst into red sparkles. Again. "So, master, what'll you have for Wish Number Two?" A spotlight came out of nowhere and shined on Aladdin.
"Hmm, how about making me a fabulously wealthy prince?" He asked.
Al snorted. "Typical."
Genie jumped in. "Oh! Money! Royalty! Fame! Why didn't I think of that? Okay, you asked for it! A hundred servants and a hundred camels loaded with gold!"
Al gaped at him. "Woah, does he really need that much?"
But, again, the Genie went on. "Just say the word and I'll deliver it in thirty minutes or less, or your meal's free." He threw his arm around Aladdin's shoulders. "Hey, I'll even throw in
a cappuccino!"
Aladdin waved his hands around. "No, thanks."
"Okay."
"I think I'll put that on hold until we reach Agrabah." Aladdin nodded to himself.
"Uh...Why a prince?" Asked Goofy.
Aladdin blushed. "Well you see, there's this….girl in Agrabah….named Jasmine. But the thing is, she's a princess and…" he sighed. "She would never fall for a guy like me," Youko
gasped. "Princess?" "Jasmine?" Donald and Goofy scratched there heads. Sora gasped"Oh that's right! She's in trouble Aladdin!" "She's playing the role of Damsel in Distress." Al
crossed her arms.
"What?! C'mon lets get going!" Aladdin almost yelled.
They boarded the carpet, and Genie ended up having to carry one of them. This time, Youko sat in Goofy's lap, holding on for dear life, and Sora got to experience hitching a ride with
the big blue guy. He was nice about it.
Genie twirled around some and said, "Ah, the fresh air! The great outdoors!"
"Nothing's great about it!" Al whispered, clinging to carpet. "Could this thing go a little slower, maybe?"
"No!" Aladdin shook his head. "We have to get to Jasmine!"
Sora hugged the Genie's neck to stay on. "I guess you don't get out much, huh?" Donald thought aloud.
"Yeah, do you?" Sora piped up.
Genie shrugged. "Comes with the job. Phenomenal cosmic powers. Itty-bitty living space. It's always three wishes, then back to my portable prison. I'm lucky to see the light of day
every century or two..."
Sora winced. "Geez, I had no idea. You don't have a choice, though, huh?" Genie shook his head.
Aladdin let his mind stray from Jasmine. "Say, Genie, what if I use my last wish to free you from the lamp? What do you think?"
Genie brightened. "You'd do that?"
"Genie, it's a promise." Aladdin smiled. "After we help Jasmine." "Thank you Al….even if you don't mean it, its still nice to hear…."
………………
"You ok Youko?"
She nodded, wobbling a bit. Those fat Heartless were bad enough, but now there was some that blew fire at you? You have got to be kidding me.
Anyway, they went back to Aladdin's house and explained the situation to him. "So, Jafar is after Jasmine and this 'Keyhole'."
Genie floated around the room and rubbed his chin. "Keyhole, eh? I could swear I've heard about that somewhere before."
Donald turned to him. "Really? Where?"
"Now, where was it?" He muttered. "It's only been two hundred years..."
Sora shook his head. "Well, anyway, we've got to stop Jafar before it's too late."
Everyone nodded.
