A/N: I'm writing this in my silent study class since I have basically nothing else to do... . I think I'm going to discontinue this story soon, I'm really not feeling like I actually enjoy writing this and no one seems to really enjoy it other than the three that are in this story... which is probably why they enjoy it at all. Also, since I plan to quit this story, this chapter is kind of sloppy(like any given Twilight book... all I want is some consistency Ms. Meyer, that's all I ask)
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom hearts or Nightmare before christmas, however Keegan owns several paraphernalia from the latter.
-------------------------------------------------This is an intro---------------------------------------------------
About a week after being reunited with their dear friend, Shay, Jessie and Ashley had gotten to know Sora a bit better. Ashley thought he was a bit too optimistic and annoying and Jessie treated him a bit like a puppy at times, which was a bit disconcerting. Within that time Ashley had also trained with Merlin, she was now pretty good at all elemental spells except lightening and she still had a bit of trouble aiming with ice spells. She also could control to what world she would go to if she used the transportation spell and learned she could only take one person with her or else she would become exhausted and faint.
Jessie on the other hand had been learning to be a healer from Aerith and a bit of weapons training with Leon, during which she learned that she favored double- elbow blades, which were like tonfas only sharp. Jessie had been having trouble with healing and opted to just keep a bunch of healing supplies on her at all times to supplement her mediocre healing skills. Aerith was actually very pleased with how far Jessie had come in such a short time and explained to her that it took a while to gain these skills.
Within that week they had also planned to go to a new world that had opened up, Shay and Sora along with Donald and Goofy would go in the gummy ship. Jessie and Ashley would go by using Ashley's magic since Donald had a hissy-fit when they asked if there was room for two more. After he had the hissy-fit Jessie kept making half-serious comments on how many ways she could cook a duck and what sauces she would use, Ashley and Shay found this slightly funny and Sora looked a bit horrified.
---------------------------------------------This is the story-----------------------------------------------------------
Ashley had 'borrowed' Merlin's book again and opened up to the transportation spell, since it seemed that she could only cast the spells she had learned from the book if she was holding it. Jessie was carrying a small satchel full of her healing supplies and several ethers for Ashley, She had also strapped on her elbow blades. " Uhm, Jess... why don't you use your inventory pockets instead? Wouldn't it be easier that way?" Ashley asked as Jessie blushed in embarrassment and hurried to empty the satchel into her pocket. Ashley eyed Jessie's weapons warily. " Jess, maybe you should put those in there too... and get me a weapon as well." Ashley sweat-dropped as Jessie pulled out a collapsible bō and handed it to Ashley. "Were you waiting for me to ask that? Or do you just carry that on you at all times?" Ashley was met with a blank stare.
"Is it not normal to carry a hidden weapon on you at all times? I'm pretty sure that there's at least 5 people in our freshman class carry knives on them." This time Jessie was met with a blank stare "I'm just kidding Leon advised me to bring this for you... How weird do you think I am? The only thing that's weird about me is my uncanny ability to stare unblinkingly for hours at a time. And that can be useful sometimes." Ashley silently wondered when that ability would ever be useful. Wasn't her irrational fear of clowns also somewhat strange?
"Jess... I don't even know what to say to you, let's just go." Ashley suggested grabbing Jessie's arm and preparing to use the transportation spell. Jessie threw the satchel that she was still holding in a random direction. Ashley stared at the bag and Jessie looked at her questioningly. " Are you just going to leave that there? That's really going to bother me, at least put it down neatly." Jessie glared at her and Ashley decided it would be a better idea to just read the spell before she got pissy.
----------------------------------------------------Mo' breaking lines--------------------------------------------------
Shay sighed loudly as the gummi ship sailed through the vast darkness of space while Sora made what she assumed was shooting noises as he shot off the beams that they used against the heartless. She stared at him in disbelief for a bit before he noticed he was getting strange looks from not only her but Donald as well. Sora gave them a sheepish look and stayed quiet for about two minutes before going back to making his shooting noises. This continued until they arrived at the new world.
When they landed Shay and Sora pretty much sprinted off the ship. The first thing they saw was that the world was very dark and that there were a lot of pumpkins. Shay looked at Sora and noticed his whole appearance had changed. She had to stop herself from giggling at his new look, little did she know that he had to do the same thing.
"Sora you look like one of Jessie's sad attempts at drawing a bat-person. What's with the tiny bat wings?"
" I could say the same thing to you Shay. What's with the wolf-person attire? Don't diss the wings, all you have are ears and a tail, so nya!" Sora said sticking out his tongue. Shay looked confused for a second then felt the top of her head, just as Sora had said, she did have ears and they were really soft too. She then looked down and saw that her blue clothes had turned black and were frayed around the edges. When she looked back up Sora was already walking towards what could be assumed was the town.
------------------------------bet you're wondering what happened to the Keegster-----------------------------
Keegan glowered at Riku who was protesting against going to Halloweentown, if he didn't go with her, she wasn't going to be able to go at all, according to Maleficent. Keegan had been waiting for her chance to actually meet her obsession, Jack Skellington, and he just had to go and try to ruin it. Of course Keegan would make sure that she got her way somehow, even if it meant being cutesy and giving Maleficent puppy dog eyes to get her way.
Apparently she wouldn't have to go that far since Maleficent seemed to be ignoring Riku's pleas anyway and telling him that he had to go anyway to procure another one of the princesses of heart. After about another five minutes of trying to get out of having to spend even more time with Keegan, Riku decided it would be better to just give up and go, if he was lucky maybe he would be able to lose her. Seeing him admit defeat, Keegan immediately conjured a portal and practically threw him into it. Riku silently wondered what he had done to be stuck with such a crazy, then he remembered that he had submitted to darkness and opened the doorway to his world, ultimately destroying it, all because he was bored with life on the Destiny Islands.
After about five minutes of wandering around in the corridor of darkness, Keegan finally found where they were supposed to exit ( a quarter of a mile past Sleepy Hollow and a left turn past Diagon Alley?). When they got there, they were greeted by the little demon spawns, Locke, Shocke, and Barrel. Keegan could barely contain her squeal when she saw them and wanted nothing more than to glomp them without mercy. Riku was less than impressed with them and began to wander off looking for the new princess of heart, though he wondered briefly how a girl with supposedly no darkness in her heart could live in such a gloomy place.
Riku tried to remember the description of the girl he was supposed to bring back with him. She had said that the girl had blue eyes... or was that hair..? Riku tried to recall what she had really said and the only thing he had come up with was that she was short and around the same age as Keegan. He dreaded the fact that he would have to deal with another teenage girl, especially with how Keegan acted. He continued to walk until he got to the grave yard where he saw two short girls arguing about something.
"I'm telling you that saying David Bowie's name backwards makes it rain if you face the east, but if you face west a typhoon will occur. That's how powerful he is!" The brunette one, who was dressed in witch attire, mumbled to the blonde one, who looked back at her skeptically.
"No one said anything about him not being powerful, But if you say his name backwards to the west it will be sunny, saying it to the north makes a typhoon happen." The blonde argued while fidgeting with her gothic lolita style dress. The blonde seemed to freeze up as if she were startled by something and looked over in his direction, as she did he noticed that she had bright blue eyes. Riku then decided that she was probably the girl he was looking for, because blue eyes are such a rare and strange thing to have especially considering that half of the kids he had hung out with back on the islands had blue eyes, or maybe it was because she was short. The brunette placed her hand on the blonde's shoulder causing her to turn back to her and gave her a questioning look, The blonde merely shrugged her shoulders and the two walked away.
--------------------------------------------------this is a line break---------------------------------------------------
Jessie kept looking behind her as she and Ashley walked away from the cemetery. She felt a bit paranoid, as if someone were following them, eventually Ashley had to grab her arm and lead her so that she wouldn't keep stopping every five seconds. When they got to the center of town they stopped and Jessie leaned against the fountain glaring at the direction that they had just come from. Around half an hour later Shay, Sora and their disney sidekicks arrived and they began to discuss the plan of action.
As they were discussing their plan Donald was messing around with the fountain. All of a sudden a the liquid in the fountain began to bubble and something began to rise out of it, which caught the attention the two keyblade wielders, who then got into a fighting stance. Jessie stopped leaning on the fountain and pushed Ashley to what she presumed would be a safe distance for them if any heartless were to jump out. Jessie opened up her inventory pocket and began fishing around for her elbow-blades, she then realized why she had wanted to use the satchel instead of the inventory pockets, it was because the inventory pockets had almost infinite space to put stuff in, thus making it harder to find any one item. By the time that she had found her elbow-blades, the thing that was rising out of the fountain was about to reveal itself from the green goo that filled the fountain. For a minute both Jessie and Ashley wondered how many laws of physics this thing was breaking with it's overly dramatic entrance.
Expecting something scary or dangerous to jump out, or as it would be slowly walk out of the fountain, Jessie took a step in front of Ashley. Shay and Sora both braced themselves to attack the creature. Donald looked terrified and Goofy looked confused, which wasn't much different from his usual expression. The creature finally exited the fountain and leaned down toward Donald and bellowed a horrifying sound.
"Boo!" At this Donald screamed and Goofy yelped. Shay started laughing hysterically, finding this whole situation ridiculous and finding Jack Skellington, whom I'm sure you all have figured out was the creature, to be the least scary, most non-threatening thing ever. Jessie stared blankly at him, clearly unimpressed after his dramatic entrance, while Ashley giggled at Donald's behavior. Sora greeted the oversized, anatomically incorrect skeleton nervously, attempting to ignore his companions behavior.
