"So, what do you think this new world will be like?" Kairi asked Sora as they look out the window of the Phoenix watching for the world. "
Who knows?" Sora admitted. "For all we know it could be a world where everyone is a bird of some type."
"Something about this name just doesn't feel right." Sygios said from the chair he was sitting in. He was staring at a map on the screen in front of him, more specifically the name of the word known as Sky High.
"Well I for one am excited to step upon the world." Silverbolt said from his large chair in the corner.
"That's because you're a robot from another dimension. The robot part of you wants to collect all the information there is. While the living part wants to get of picture of everything here." Sygios replied without looking back at the Fuzor.
"I don't think Silverbolt works like that Sygios." Kairi said.
"Whatever, not important. What is it about this name that I don't like?" Sygios shouted, turning the screen off.
"Maybe it's the word sky combined with the word high. Are you afraid of heights?" Sora asked.
"Yeah that's it Sora, I'm afraid of heights. Which explains why I climbed the tallest mountain on my word to get revenge!" Sygios shot back sarcastically. The two glared at each other
Before Sora and Sygios could start their argument they were interrupted by Kairi. "Hey I can see the world. The Keyblade Master and Electric Teen looked away from each other and joined Kairi by the window. They were amazed to see a large building with a couple of yellow buses in a parking lot. The amazing part was that the building was built on a large floating disk.
"I guess we found out where the Sky part comes from." Sora said.
"And the High part!" Sygios whined as they watched teens step off the busses and walk into the building. "Not more school!
"What is school?" Silverbolt asked, as he joined the three by the window.
"School is where kids our age go to learn everything they can to aid them in the future." Sora answered.
"Its can easily be compared to a prison." Sygios added. He gave the school another sad look as he ignored the annoyed look from Sora.
"I see, and are they usually built on top of floating platforms in the sky?"
"First I have ever seen one built like that." Kairi answered.
"Might as well join them, we have to be able to look around for the Core Fragment." Sora said. "Hey ,Max, take us down for a landing.
"Compliance." Max responded.
"You're asking me to willingly go to school?" Sygios asked, turning to look at Sora. "Fu.." He stared to say, but he was interrupted by the gummi ship starting to violently shake, and a purple colored wave passed through the ship, causing Sora, Kairi and Silverbolt to momentarily glow with a purple light. After the waved passed through the ship, the Phoenix stopped shaking.
"Wh-wh-what was that?" Sora asked, helping Kairi stand back up.
"Unknown, gummi ship is working at one hundred percent." Max answered.
"That was really weird." Kairi said looking out the window.
"Well if nothing is wrong with the ship." Sygios said giving another sad look at the school and finishing his sentence were he had left off. "-ck that! Nothing you say or do is going to get me to land at that school."
"Landing complete." Max said, as the Pheonix touched down in the fake street built in front of the building.
"Well I'm still not getting off."
"Come on, Sygios." Sora chuckled as he and Kairi grabbed his arms and dragged him off the ship. While Silverbolt followed, looking bewildered
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
"I don't know about the two of you but I'm excited to be going back to school." Kairi cheerfully said as they walked toward the crowd of students.
"Maybe a little." Sora admitted. "But don't forget why we're here, we need to find the-"
"Core Fragments." Silverbolt finished, sounding proud to have remembered what the objective was. The four kept walking until they merged with one of the last groups to get off the buses, who were looking around in awe.
Silverbolt was also started looking around, taking in the sights of his first day at a school. As he enjoyed the sights, he noticed a two shadows racing across the ground. Looking up he discovered two girls flying by overhead. "I didn't know humans could fly."
"What are you talking about? We can't fly." Sygios said.
"Well you might want to tell the two of them." Silverbolt responded as he pointed out the two girls flying above to his friends.
"What in the world?" Sygios asked himself, as he watched them fly past. The three humans then started to look around in awe like the group they were standing with. They watched as two teen boys stared at a girl passing by, and then one of the boys shot a red laser from his eyes at her butt. Turning around the girl gave the two an evil stare before shooting out a blue mist from her hands that froze the two boys.
"Now that's the best way to give the cold shoulder." Sygios whispered to Sora, who gave him a look that showed what he thought of the joke.
"Hello, freshman, don't be shy." The group heard. The group turned to see a squad of black girls in yellow and blue cheerleading uniforms chanting out a cheer. The odd thing was that every single one of them looks the same. "Welcome newbie's to Sky High! Juniors, Seniors, all the rest. We're back to school, sky is the best!"They finished, before most of them vanished into the one in the middle, who stated to jump and scream, "We're number one!"
"Talk about a one-" Sygios began.
"Don't you dare finish that joke." Sora threatened.
"Wow, a whole school built for teens with super powers." Kairi said looking around sheer amazement.
"Yeah, this is my kind of place." Sygios exclaimed.
"It's almost like my childhood dream come true." Sora laughed.
"I don't understand." Silverbolt said. "The three of us can summon Keyblades, and Sygios can control lightening. What is so amazing about a building full of teens that can also do supernatural events?"
"It's a human child thing." Sygios answered, shrugging his shoulders.
Before Silverbolt could ask anymore questions, they were interrupted as a tornado appeared from no where that surrounded the entire group. Everyone quickly clustered together to avoid the walls of the wind. As the wind dies down it revealed that is was an overweight boy, wearing a large jacket, a blue shirt and a hat that he wore backwards, who had been running around them very fast.
"Hey, freshman!" He shouted needlessly, since he already had everyone's attention. "You're attention please!" as he finished saying this another teen flipped into view, his limbs stretched out like Stretch Armstrong. He wore an orange shirt with a black skull on it, and a black and white stripped jacket.
He raised one hand in greeting and said, "I'm Lash," he then grabbed the shoulder of the large, fast boy next to him. "This is Speed." Speed nodded his head in greeting instead of saying or doing anything else. "As representatives of the Sky High Welcoming Committee.."
"We'd be happy to collect that fifteen dollar new student fee." Speed finished while Lash stretched out is arm, which looked like snake painted like a zebra, to the center of the group.
"I don't think the school charges new students fifteen dollars just for being a new student." Sora interjected. Speed and Lash looked over at Sora's small group.
"Well guess what, this school does." Speed said, as he cracked his knuckles while Lash looked at the group with confusion.
"Are you wearing a dress?" He asked, looking at Sygios.
"Oh come on!" Sygios shouted. "It's not a dress!"
"Ok, guys, very funny." A new voice said. Everyone looked to see a cute looking girl, with shoulder length brown hair, and wearing a pink jacket, walking toward the group. "I'll take over from here. She stopped in front of the group of students new to the school, and smiled. "Hey ,everyone, I'm Gwen Grayson, your student body president. I Know you're all going to love it here, but there are a few simple rules I want to let you guys know."
Sora yawned, already bored with standing around and listening to Gwen's speech. Looking around he was amazed by how many people were love struck by Gwen Grayson. Looking next to him he discovered that even Sygios had fallen victim to her looks. However, the person who looked the most smitten by Gwen was a boy in the front wearing a blue shirt. He was staring at her so deeply that it looked like he was in another world. A red haired girl in a green outfit next to him turned to look at him for a moment before turning back to Gwen.
"So if you remember all these rules, I promise you will not fall off the edge of school." Gwen finished. All the boys who had been staring at her laughed, while others groaned at the lame joke. After her speech everyone started to file into the school.
"Wait, what were those rules?" Sygios asked, looking at Sora and Kairi.
"If you hadn't been bust drooling over Gwen you might have heard them." Kairi laughed, following the rest into the school.

-World that Never Was-
"Tell me Dr. Doofenshmirtz, did the device work?" Maleficent asked evil doctor as he fooled around with one of his latest inventions.
"I think so, but I can't say for sure. The only way to be completely sure would be if we were there right now."
Pete walked over to the device, and poked at it. "These doodads are weird Heinz, you sure that they every actually work right?"
"Of course I'm sure it will work." Doofenshmirtz growled, slapping Pete's hand away.
"Then why havn't any of your schemes ever worked?"
"Not my fault, Perry the Platypus always got in my way."
"Excuses, excuses Heinz. You can't blame a mindless animal for all your problems."
"He is not a mindless animal!" He is an extremely intelligent agent, who is capable of beating me." Doofenshmirtz yelled, but Pete just stood there nodding with his eyebrows raised. "Besides aren't you always beaten by a kid with a giant key?"
"Now hold your horses, that is no ordinary key-"
"See my point?" Doofenshmirtz interupted with a sly grin. Pete started at him with his jaw dropped while he tried to figure out a comeback, but none came to mind.
"Enough you idiots!" Maleficent shrieked. "As long as the device worked, I don't care about anything else."
"Oh I'm sure it worked, and boy won't the Keywielder be surprised."
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
-Sky High-
"Wow, this sure is a big gym!" Sygios commented, as the group walked into a large gym. On the far side of the gym was a white podium, but other than that there was no one to greet them. "Is this the part where somebody jumps out and shouts surprise?" As he finished saying this there was a whooshing sound and a white colored comet came whooshing past, flying so low that several of the teens had to duck to avoid being hit. The white comet flew over to the podium and turned into a woman in a white suit.
"Good morning." She said to all the students standing in front of the podium. "I am Principal Powers. On behalf of all the factually and staff, I welcome you to Sky High!"
"Yahoo, this place is awesome!" Sygios shouted out, causing everyone, including Principal Powers, to turn and face him. Feel embarrassed he lowered his head and muttered something under his breath.
"Make up your mind, do you hate school or not?" Sora quietly hissed into Sygios ear.
Powers cleared her throat, and continued her speech where she left off. "In a few moments you will go through power placement, and your own heroic journey will begin.
"Power placement?" The boy in blue, who had been staring at Gwen earlier, asked sounding shocked.
"Well this might be fun." Sygios said with a grin, as he rubbed his hands together in glee. "In other words, it's a test to see if we're better as a hero or a sidekick."
"Any power here will be nothing compared to the Keyblade." Sora said, already imagining how popular he was going to be.
"Don't you dare show off Sora."Kairi lectured.
"I don't understand." Silverbolt said scratching his head. "What is a hero, and what is a sidekick?"
"Well a hero is somebody who fights bad guys, while the sidekick is the helper monkey. Doing whatever is asked of him." Sygios explained.
"Or her." Kairi and the girl in green said in unison. They looked at each other and grinned.
"For now, good deeds and good luck. Comets away!" Principal Powers cried, raising her arms into the air as she turned back into the white comet, and flew away.
"Wait, if she isn't doing the thing, then who is?" Sygios asked looking around.
"That would be me." Everyone turned to see a man in a black and white jacket with the Sky High logo on it, white shorts, and a blue baseball cap, being raised onto a platform. "My name is Coach Boomer, some of you may have known me as Sonic Boom.
"Sonic Boom? What kind of retarded name is that?" Sygios whispered to Sora.
"A very good one!" Coach Boomer shouted at Sygios, in an extremely loud voice that shook the entire gym.
"Guess that explains his name, huh Sygios?" Sora asked Sygios.
"What did you say?" Sygios shouted at Sora, as he cupped a hand around his ear, to amplify the sound of Sora's voice.
"So here is how things are going to work. You come up, show me your powers, and I decide whether their useful or not. There will be no complaints based upon my decision!" Coach Boomer shouted, using a less powerful version of his super voice. He looked around the room to find his first victim. "Dress boy, front and center."
Sygios looked around the room trying to find a boy wearing a dress, finding none, he pointed one finer at himself, when Coach Boomer nodded his head Sygios became frustrated. "It's not a dress!" Sygios shouted as he climbed onto the stage.
"Yeah, whatever. Name?"
"Sygios."
"And you made fun of my name?" Coach Boomer said crossing his arms.
"Well yeah but-"
"Don't care, power up." Boomer interrupted
"Yes sir." Sygios mocked, before raising an arm crackling with electricity. "And I have mostly full control over it to."
"What do you mean by mostly?" Shrugging his shoulders, Sygios stopped his hand from sparking, and lightly poked the coach, giving him what should have been a painful shock. Boomer however, didn't really notice the shock "Not bad, I've seen better, but not bad." Coach Boomer said, reluctantly nodding his head. "Hero."
"Yes!" Sygios shouted with joy, jumping from the stage to land next to Sora. "See, I am hero material."
"Wait, we have to show off our powers? Oh not good, not good." The boy from earlier started to chant.
"What's wrong with you?" Sora asked him, as he watched a girl who could transform into a ball get classified as a sidekick.
"Huh, oh its nothing."
"Okay, I'm Sora." He said, holding out his hand. "This is Kairi, Silverbolt and I think you already heard Sygios's name."
"Will Stronghold." The other boy said, shaking Sora's hand. "Oh, and this is Layla Williams." He finished, pointing out the girl next to him.
"Hi, how's it going" she asked, giving everyone a wave.
Will looked up at Silverbolt. "Wow, your pretty big. You sure you're a student?"
"Well actually-" Silverbolt started
"Hey lets watch this next guy." Sora interrupted, quickly changing the subject. Everyone watched as a boy walked on the stage and instantly sprouted four extra arms. Nodding his head in agreement Coach Boomer made him into a Hero.
"Seriously? Four extra arms? That's it? My electricity is so much better than that." Sygios boasted.
"Alright, who's next? You, flower child." Coach Boomer said, pointing at Layla.
"Uh, I only believe in using my powers when it's absolutely necessary." Layla said.
"I think I agree with your logic Layla." Kairi said, nodding her head.
"So wait, both of you are refusing to show me your powers?"
"Yeah." They said in unison.
"Sidekick." The coach boomed. Looking around he noticed Silverbolt, and pointed at him. "You big kid, up now." Silverbolt nodded his head, and got onto the stage.
"So I just show you what I can do right?" Silverbolt asked.
"Well this kid came prepared, he already thinks he's going to be a hero and brought a costume." Coach Boomer said, studying Silverbolt. "Of course with these wings, he just might already be classified as a hero."
"I can do more the fly." Silverbolt clarified.
"Really? Boomer asked. "Please do show."
"Silverbolt…Maximize!" The Fuzor shouted, as he transformed into his beast mode.
"A shape shifter who is capable of flight. Boomer mused. "Plus he already has a catch phrase. Hero!"
Smiling happily, Silverbolt changed back, and hopped off the stage. "What is a catch phrase?" He asked Sora.
Looking around the room Boomer noticed Will standing next to Sora. "Alright, Stronghold lets see if you can make mommy and daddy proud."
Taking a gulp of air, Will climbed up onto the stage, and turned to face his classmates.
"What's Coach Boomer talking about?" Sora asked Layla. "What does he mean make his mom and dad proud?"
"Will is the son of The Commander and Jetstream, you know the two famous Superheroes?" Layla explained, before looking back up at the stage.
"The Commander and Jetstream?" Sygios asked in awe. "No way, I've heard of them. They are the best tag team super heroes out there."
"Wow, Will sure has a lot to live up to." Sora said, finally understanding why Will was so nervous.
"Alright Stronghold, what can you do?"
"Well actually…" Will began, before whispering into the coach's ear.
"What do you mean you don't know what your powers are?" Coach Boomer thundered.
"That's exactly what I mean!" Will said. All the new students turned to look at each other and started to whisper quietly amongst themselves.
"No way, the child of The Commander, has no powers?" Sygios asked sounding shocked. "If I sold this info to the right people, I would be filthy rich!"
"Not that your going to, right, Sygios?" Kairi asked, giving Sygios a stare so forceful that he gulped and nodded his head.
"Stronghold." Boom said shaking his head. "Sidekick!" Coach Boomer boomed even louder then when he shouted at Sygios. He shouted so loud, that the shockwaves threw Will off the stage. Right before he crashed into the wall Silverbolt flew up into the air and caught him. "Alright, so last kid come on up."
Smiling happily Sora walked over to the platform and climbed up.
"So what 'amazing' thing can you do kid?"
"Well I'm the Keyblade Master."
Coach Boomer looked at Sora, and started to laugh. "Sure you are kid, but seriously, what can do?"
"That is what I can do. I can wield the Keyblade."
"Right, like we're suppose to believe that you're the kid that saved everything."
"But I am!" Sora shouted.
"Alright fine." Boomer said, raising his hands in defeat. "You're the Keyblade Master, prove it." He sneered.
"Fine, I will." Sora retorted. He held out his hand to summon the Kingdom Key, but nothing happened. "Wait, what?"
"Come on kid, we're waiting." Boomer jeered.
"Hold on, let me try again." Sora held out his hand, but the Keyblade didn't come again. It was then that realization dawned on Sora. He couldn't summon his Keyblade!"
