Battle for Disney: Chapter 10: Jail Break
DISCLAIMER: I don't own the characters, but the story and its universe is mine.
When the project to rebuild the Dreammobile started, Figment knew it had to be much larger then the original in order to carry all of the lost ones back and also that the vehicle needed some defense systems. But in order for the project to go through, it would take much hard work to succeed and it would take a few months to finish the massive project and things were looking a little more grim once the Food Rocks cast disappeared in January, once again victims of the Dark Hunters and Nidhiki did try looking for another certain someone to take captive: Figment. But Nidhiki didn't get the chance as he and Krekka could not track him. Figment was in hiding, but he really did want to help them escape their dark clutches, but he knew that he would rescue them and the rest immediately after the project was done. He would not let them suffer any longer once the Dreammobile rehab was complete. Everyone helped pitch in and with the amazing technical know-how of the Toon population of the parks; they managed to build the masers quickly and simply from items all around Walt Disney World
Figment himself put a lot into it, helping on the welding of different parts to the main frame including the maser cannons and the massive passenger box now on the bottom of the ship to hold all the prisoners and the Dream Speeders which would also add more defenses to the ship.

The project was finally completed after much hard work in secret and was finished with the placement of the Idea Bag and the Blimp Balloon.
"Buzzy!" Figment asked the young Cranium Commando "Are those last few preparations complete?"
"We're ready sir!" he replied back.
"Okay then! Come on everybody!" Figment yelled to the caravan "Lets go!"
The rest of the caravan quickly boarded and they flew off to much cheering and applause from the other characters down below and they were going up as Illuminations was starting on the World Showcase Lagoon. Having tried to get to the tower before, Figment was driving and heading straight up into the sky. They had some trouble dodging incoming fireworks, but otherwise were doing fine. The newly added jet boosters wee helping to carry the much larger load of the new stuff on the ship including the passengers cabin added to the bottom, the numerous Dreamspeeders kept within, and the two maser cannons now added to the ship to fight off the dangers that would lurk in the sky. The Dreammobile now was approaching the top of the cloud cover and the dark floating castle was in site. It was enormous, with numerous spiky towers and a massive dome at the bottom. Figment, having seen the tower before last spring, knew that was where Dreamfinder, the Sage of Time, the Dreamseekers and all the rest were being held.
"We're almost there!" Figment said.
But then they encountered the guardians of the tower which were highly unexpected: not of the Earth, not even within the Fantasy Realm, or at least of this time. They were the Nazgul, who despite being destroyed long ago at the destruction of Sauron in Middle Earth, one of the numerous worlds of the Fantasy Realm, had returned, most likely through extremely powerful dark magic. They flew toward the caravan atop their fell beasts and attacked the Dreammobile. Immediately, Figment, Mickey and Goofy manned their stations and began firing the Maser cannons. Like the dragon back in Animal Kingdom, the Masers were very effective against the fell beasts, shooting a couple of them down, but not before their Black Riders boarded the ship. Mickey and the others drew their weapons ready for a fight. The Nazgul just marched toward them on top of the ship with their own swords ready. The Nazgul screamed as they began their attack and their swords clashed with the Caravan's weapons. It was a dangerous arena, fighting on top of the Dreammobile and the Nazgul and the Caravan focused on keeping their balance and not falling to the ground below. The Nazgul still were great and powerful enough though to slowly break through Goofy's shield, though Mickey, Donald and Minnie used fire and light magic to help defend their friend, but the demons persisted. Figment wanted to help them, but he was too preoccupied with driving the ship and he knew that the Maser Cannons could not reach high enough to zap the Nazgul off the Dreammobile. Soon, they were facing more trouble as high winds plagued the ship. As the fight raged on, they were getting closer to the castle and the Nazgul became much fiercer, trying to keep the caravan from getting within and Goofy's shield finally broke into many shards. Just then, a stowaway revealed himself. It was Buzzy! He was riding on one of the Dreamspeeders from the cargo hold and began shooting the Nazgul off the ship with the built in maser gun and warding them away with bright lights. The Nazgul fell thousands of feet below down into Bay Lake below.
"Buzzy! What are you doing here?" Figment asked, "You should of stayed back home!"
"You'll need someone to do some repairs once we break into the castle. Besides I have every right to help too. After all, my neighborhood suffered just as much as your if not more! And the General sorta pushed me into it too and I had some time to find a quick substitute to control my assigned brain."
After Buzzy had spoken, they were now approaching the castle and they set the masers to full blast as they went charging into the castle's walls. The masers were slowly loosening the wall and they were just ready to burst it open crashing into the wall. On the other side Dreamfinder has been sitting, just as he had been for around five years. The inmates that had been taken into the dark dungeon provided the only news he got from the outside. Fud Wrapper told him that the quest had began, the backpack was serving the caravan well on the journey and that Figment was rebuilding the Dreammobile to fee him and all the rest. Dreamfinder was proud that his 'son' was coming at last. Just then, he heard a loud rumbling and buzzing. Soon a maser beam penetrated the wall and began cutting a hole in the wall. Then the new Dreammobile itself came crashing into the cell.
"Dreamfinder! Do you like what I've done with it?" Figment said as the Dreammobile came through.
"You did a good job to it." Dreamfinder said back.
The others jumped off and Figment broke Dreamfinder's chains apart.
"We're going to free the others. Where do the guards keep the keys?" Figment asked on a much more serious note.
Dreamfinder raised his hand and the keys, which were across the hall hanging, went to his hands.
"Right here." Dreamfinder said. "Those speeders should help you get them out of here fast. Security will be on your tail soon!"
They heeded Dreamfinder's advice and took the speeders throughout the dank prison. They split up and began to free numerous characters from the singing fruit and vegetables of the Food Rocks and Kitchen Kaberet shows to the futuristic family of Horizons. When Mr. Toad had been freed, he was especially glad to get back to the Toad Hall of Disneyland. Figment himself soon came to three friends he knew very well, the ones he attempted to save last spring. They were the Dreamseekers Elfin, Cosmo and Leonardo Columbus.
"Figment! You came at last!" Elfin shouted with joy.
"It's been horrible!" said Cosmo "The only food and drink we get are old turkey legs and Beverly."
Figment shuddered at those last words and got the keys out.
"I'm not going to leave you guys behind to vomit inducing drinks! Come on, we got to get you onto the ship!" Figment explained as he unlocked the prison doors.
Figment and his three friends then got onto the Dreamspeeder and back to the ship to drop them off to help fix it up for the flight back down. Figment joined up with the rest of the caravan and headed to one of the most heavily guarded spots in the dungeon. The Sage of Time, a mighty and tall being in a white and gold robe with a headpiece representing the sun,was hanging there with strong chains holding him to the wall.
"I see that the quest seems to be going well." The Sage said as the caravan unlocked his restraints. "Soon his evil shall come to an end."
Then the alarms went off and they quickly escaped the room as many of the guards were coming for them. As they got to the ship, a mighty figure was visible in the shadows, commanding his troops, holding a evil looking staff as well as a good looking one. The Sage of Time gestured and the good staff, his own, came to his hands.
"I leave then, my old 'friend' and I'm taking back what you took from me." He said to the dark being.
They then all quickly leaved as repairs were done as thousands of arrows were being shot at them, but a shield created by Dreamfinder and the Sage of Time negated the foul stings. Then the Dreamspeeders were soon deployed and the masers made fine hits on the dark archers back in the castle.
The dark sorcerer looked as they got away and Eisner stepped in the room.
"What's wrong with you, they got away! Send flying troops after them! Get some of those new Nazgul like Pressler or Harris to bring them back!" Eisner tried commanding at his superior.
"No, let them live for now. Soon darkness shall overtake them and some of my greatest enemies in the Fantasy Realm." The enigmatic evil said.
He turned and showed Eisner the Kaiju chambers of the castle and numerous monstrosities waiting to be unleashed.
"So, who do we use first?" said Eisner with an evil smirk.
Meanwhile, the ship was touching down in Epcot at the Imagination pavilion and Figment quickly ran and passed Dr. Channing quickly and unintelligibly explaining the situation. "Hey Channing I released a bunch of prisoners from a floating tower of death can they stay here okay cool!"
Channing shook his head wondering what Figment was up to this time. He knew of the quest, but not exactly what it would encompass and how it made darkness even angrier at the small purple dragon.
Something had been troubling Mickey as they left the castle, that being the words the Sage of Time had spoken of before they left.
"What did you mean by old friend back there?" Mickey asked nervously to the Sage.
"I shall tell you and the others of it despite the pain it brings me to tell it. It is a story of darkness and betrayal and how one person can break thousands of people apart for power. Meet me at Showcase Plaza at the shores of the World Showcase Lagoon later tonight and I shall tell this tragic tale." The mighty being replied back as he turned and left the mouse.
