Ilixim: Wonderful! Now, on with the story!
10. What?
*~(Audience Chamber)~*
The king stopped the group, yet again, as they neared the exit.
"Just before you guys leave, we have another present for ya!" Mickey happily said.
Riku raised an eyebrow at Goofy and Donald, but, as he noticed they both had dumbfounded looks, he too had no idea what was going on.
King Mickey led the group down the hallway, continuing on to the end. An elevator door was stationed there, ornate sparkles carved into its corners. At first glance, the elevator looked like it could barely fit Pete in there, much less a bunch of teens and their tour guides. In reality, once you got inside, he elevator would definitely fit Pete, Oogie Boogie, and Ursula, leaving some room to spare for a Large Body heartless.
Inside, the elevator's walls was covered completely with mirrors which endlessly reflected the group dozens upon dozens of times. As the metal room slowly descended, of course, elevator music was playing.
In you and I, there's a new land
Angels in flight
wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I
My sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music inside
wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I
Oddly enough, the tune was extremely catchy and stuck in the the minds of the Destiny Island trio. Beast Boy and Cyborg, on the other hand got goosebumps and chills up their spines. Even Beast Boy's animal side reacted, making the hairs on his arms and neck stand straight up.
Robin and Raven curiously observed their two teammates due to the weird aura they were radiating. Starfire was not as worried, knowing enough Kingdom Hearts soundtrack music from passing the duo's gaming sessions every once in a while. The Tamaranean quickly explained to Raven, said empath quirking an eyebrow in moderate surprise.
Oh well. What surprises me is that it didn't surprise me, Raven thought.
The empath shrugged at Starfire. She didn't have the time to worry about such frivolous details.
"Ding!" The elevator slowly came to a halt, doors soon following its lead and sliding open.
The queen and king quickly ushered everybody out. Donald wasn't too happy though. Considering that he was the closest to the doors, the poor duck was shoved out first.
"Hey!" he complained, "What's the big ide-... Whoa..." As he (and the rest of the group) looked around, they realized that there was a huge Gummi ship right in front of them. The ship's main color theme was a sleek black with blue and gold lines outlining the cockpits (five to be exact). If you thought Sora's old Gummi ship was awesome, think again. With this baby now on the market, even Cyborg was ready to trade in the T-Ship for this mode of transportation.
"Aw man!" he exclaimed, "Let's go check it out!" The mob of teens immediately ran up to the Gummi ship's entrance, leaving the Disney guys biting their dust.
Gummi ships normally contained barely enough room for five people. This one, however, was huge, containing enough space for seven small bedrooms, a kitchen, two restrooms, and a large control room that provided enough seats for everyone present. Not to mention that there was an upper level where the five cockpits were located. In the split second it took for the teenage mob to enter the ship, already half of it was explored by Beast Boy, randomly grabbing and dragging friends to take selfies all over the place. Cyborg took to examining the ship's mainframe. Apparently, mashing random buttons was 'furthering his knowledge' on the strangely familiar piece of technology. As most of the teens already knew, technology didn't really appreciate getting ten million separate commands in five seconds. So, the mainframe did what pissed mainframes do, and shut completely down.
"Oh snaps bro!" Beast Boy exclaimed, oblivious to Cyborg's negative predicament.
Robin rolled his eyes and said, "Great. And we haven't even flown the damn thing yet."
"Um... No problem guys!" Cyborg nervously smiled, "I have just the thing to fix it at home!" He stared pointedly at Raven.
"So let me guess," the empath deadpanned, "You want me to open up another portal just so you can get a stupid tool?"
"But Raven..." He looked pleadingly at said teen and gave a pair of puppy eyes.
Raven still didn't seem like she was going to relent, so Cyborg slyly said, "Well then, I guess you don't mind if I tell BB over here about your secret CR-"
Before Cyborg could finish, Raven wrapped her dark energy around his mouth and hissed, "Okay! Okay. I'll do it. But pull one more stunt like that and I'll tell Bee about your little secret too."
Luckily, no one noticed the little exchange, and instead, was attracted to the electric-less mess of a mainframe.
Donald rushed in at the commotion and nearly had a heart attack. "Wak! What's the big idea?" Seeing as Cyborg had the only guilty face, the duck angrily stomped towards him, scolding, "You big palooka! How is the ship supposed to fly without a mainframe?!"
Cyborg backed up and gulped. Trying to atone himself, he said, "I-I have something back home I can use! Don't worry 'bout it! Raven?"
"On it," she replied.
Oookay... Opening a portal in three...two...one!... What?
A portal did open, but for an alarmingly short time, as it seemed to implode. The result was one demoness thrown across the room, causing her to crash into the Kingdom Key bearer, and creating a small crater as the pair was chucked out of the ship and onto the launchpad.
"Oof!" Sora grunted as his body acted as Raven's cushion.
The empath didn't seem to be better off than the brunette, trying to comprehend what just occurred.
Beast Boy and Kairi came flying out of the ship. They kneeled next to their respective friends, Beast Boy asking, "What happened?"
The empath took a moment before answering, "I... don't know..."
*~(*)~*
Ilixm: Well that took forever. Sorry guys. Apparently all school days after spring break means, "Let's dump all the freaking projects on students and give them a day to finish all of them!" Also, anybody boarding the pity train for Raven and Sora?
Raven: Hmph. I don't appreciate being blasted. At all. Anyways, your readers probably have been reading other fanfictions anyways...
Ilixm: *pouts* Continuing on to the mailbox.
Antex-The Legendary Zoroark: Why, thank you! And don't worry; I think the storyline will get very interesting indeed. ;)
ultima-owner: Thanks!
dj25taz: Yes. Mwahahahahahaha!
Ilixm: Special thanks goes out to UknownHero for following and favoriting this story! That's all for now... Bye bye! :3
