Chapter Eleven: Evidence
"She's innocent!" he yelled.
"How do you know rude boy?" asked the queen.
"Because it was the heartle-," said Goofy before he was cut off by Donald and Ryx.
"We know who did it and we can prove it." Said Ryx.
"Fine you have an hour." She said as the cards forced the girl into a cage. The quartet walked up to the cage while the cards were locking it.
"I'm Alice. Thanks for helping me." She said.
"I'm Sora. That's Donald."
"I'm Ryx and that's Goofy." Said Ryx.
"It was no problem, they was bein' un fair." Said Goofy.
"But where do we find the evidence?" asked Sora.
"Check the Lily pad forest!" she said as they raised the cage. They all nodded and saw her hand was pointing to a west exit as the curtain closed. They ran too that arch and saw it was a lily pad forest.
"How do we find things in this?" asked Doanld.
"You could as me, strange weed." Said a high pitched melodious voice. It was a flower.
"Have you seen anything odd?" asked Sora.
"Yes these annoying bugs that keep trying for that thorn bush's heart." It said and a shadow heartless appeared.
"So found one, you have quick show it to the queen." Said the Cheshire Cat showing up again. They tried catching it but it was a slippery little bugger. They wound up chasing it right in front of the queen.
"There's the real culprit!" yelled Ryx as they destroyed it. More showed up. So many, the group had to split up to fight them. Ryx wound up fighting near the cage and he heard the oddest thing, like a whip being cracked and a squeal. But he had two red sonatas and a yellow opera to deal with before he could investigate. Once he was done the cage fell and it was empty.
"She's gone! Bring her back! Cards!" yelled the Queen. The cards surrounded them and the key blade masters sighed and began to knock all the cards out. Donald and Goofy followed after a 2 second stunning from they being gung ho for violence.
After this the group decided to leave Wonderland, as they'd taken to calling it. The made it back to the Bizarre room and climbed, with a little difficulty on Goofy's part. The chair and table and were about to reach the bottles when the Cheshire Cat appeared.
"Are you ready or not? Too late if you're not. But I'll be giving you something you're missing." He said and a snow flake appeared over each key blade.
Then it appeared. Trickster, juggling the flaming batons. They saw the hands were the things to attack. Donald and Goofy were set alight and Doanlad had to cast cure.
"What was with that snow flake!" yelled Sora to Ryx as the avoided the batons and swipes.
"I don't know!" yelled Ryx. Both landed on each side of the heartless and both felt something flare up and yelled,
"Freeze!"
"Deep Freeze!" and the heartless was frozen solid. Then both slashed it; Sora vertically, Ryx horizontally. It dissolved and then the door woke up.
"What's with all that racket?" it asked grumpily, then yawned out lining a key hole. Sora felt his arm jerk as his key blade raised while the door yawned and a light shot out of the key blade Ryx's had done this too.
"What was that?" asked every one but Sora and since he hadn't asked and was standing in awe they all looked at him.
"What?" he asked.
In the dark place the group had reassembled.
"The blasted brat has found one of the key holes!" yelled the cobra man(Jafar).
"We need not worry about him. After all, all the pieces are falling into place." Said Maleficent as Nami thrust Alice into view.
"Where is he?" she demanded.
"You'll see him soon. First you need to learn respect while my council is gathered. But you did do good and those foolish Key bearers didn't even see you so I suppose you deserve a gift." She said and soul eater(stealer) appeared.
"Wow! I can feel its power." She said as she picked it up.
"Now go. We need Cinderella." She said.
"Yes Maleficent." She said.
"She is powerful?" asked the bag(Oogie).
"She must be for her to be giving her that sword, you cod fish." Said the pirate(Captain Hook). The guy with flame hair(Hades) left, saying he had to contract a sucker to get rid of wonder breath. The octopus woman(Ursula) wasn't present.
"She is key to getting all the princesses rounded up. Best of all by promising her this 'him' she'll keep working without knowing I don't know who this 'him' is." Said Maleficent and all present threw back theirs heads and laughed evilly.
Sora and Ryx were looking at a strange block.
"Maybe Leon or his friend Cid will know." Said Donald and all nodded as they headed for the world exit.
They didn't notice behind them a girl appear almost out of thin air holding a sai by its blade in her fingers. She looked like nothing either of the key bearers would have seen before. Her blond hair, that reached her mid back was blue tipped, her dark blue halter(Like Yuna's) contrasting the red in her red and dark blue gauntlets that tied around her middle finger and reached her elbow. This also contrasted the yellow belt that tied the navy colored skirt that had a slit that ran the length of it letting those who looked closely see her blue short shorts underneath, the skirt also had a yellow stripe at the bottom making her re and blue boots stand out. Over all she had a strange air about her and her golden eyes had mysteries with in their depths that seemed to ensnare any one who looked at them for too long.
"Lets see if the pieces find their way out of this game." She said as she faded out leaving a strange calm behind. They made it back to Traverse Town and made Donald promise never to let Goofy drive again.
"Well while you two go eat we'll ask Cid about this." Said Donald when he heard the two teens' stomachs growl. They smiled Sheepishly and Ryx became Riku again.
"Feels so good to be me." He said stretching. They saw the second district was open again and there were a couple of restaurants open. She reached in his pockets and came up with a strange coin like thing.
"What's this?" he asked.
"Some sort of currency?" said Riku.
"It's munny." Said a voice from behind them. A dark skinned Arabic boy with shoulder length black hair tipped with red was behind them. He wore a black shirt with a white heartless insignia on it, while his shorts were black denim with a red heartless symbol on each leg.
"Who are you?" asked Sora suspiciously.
"No one of consequence." He said and Riku noticed, with some shock, the boy's eyes were crimson.
"What's munny good for?" asked Sora.
"That's good for buying things here." The strange boy said. "The Heartless will drop some sometimes when you vanquish them." He said. Riku checked his pocket for some and found a fist full of it. When he looked over at the boy, he was gone. Sora shrugged.
"Lets eat." Said Riku.
