Chapter 14: Agrabah
A/N: We're off on another new world! Since I finally finished my finals, I can get back to writing this story!
Now I just have to play the waiting game. (anime tears)
Thanks again for responding to my poll, it'll help me out with Hikari's character.
Here's another poll/ question for you to vote on if you like:
Why do you think Maleficent is so obsessed with Hikari? Why does she think she'll be the key to her plan?
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts, but I do own Hikari and Taiyouko.
Enjoy!
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Hikari sat broadly in her seat as they traveled to their next world.
She enjoyed going on a new adventure, but she hated traveling to it. She was like a little kid how hated long car rides.
"Are we there yet?" she asked for the hundredth time.
Donald's eyebrow twitched.
"For the last time,no! Now sit down and shut up"
Hikari grumbled in her seat .
She looked out the window to see the stars.
They looked like little balls of light that seemed to float endlessly in space. It amazed her how beautiful they looked up close.
She sighed and pulled out her keyblade. She seemed to do this whenever she was board. She would look at her keyblade and admire its beauty. She felt lucky to have such a beautiful weapon such as this one.
As she was looking at it, a memory flashed through her head.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Taiyouko ran down the dark corridors of what appeared to be a castle. She looked around frantically for someone as she ran.
"Where are you?" she called out.
She went up a couple of steps and opened a set of double doors harshly before running inside.
What she saw when she entered the room nearly made the air rush out of her lungs.
A man stood before what appeared to be a giant emblem on the wall that was the symbol for the heartless. The emblem was glowing and seemed to lead to another room.
The man stood there, admiring its beauty.
"What are you doing?!" she cried.
The man turned around. The bottom half of his face was visible while the rest of it was all blurry.
The man smiled at her when she ran up the steps.
"I did it, Taiyouko. I finally found the keyhole to this world"
Taiyouko looked horrified at this.
She shook her head frantically.
"No! You promised me that you would stop with this obsession of yours with the heart of the worlds! Stop putting this world in turmoil with your foolish experiments! It's taking its toll on you!"
The man laughed at her.
"Why on earth would you say such a silly thing?" he asked.
He walked over to her and held her face in his hand.
"All I'm doing is trying to study the nature of the heart. Why stop when I've gotten so far? Trust me Taiyouko, I'm about to make a breakthrough in my research. As soon as this keyhole is complete, then I'll be the greatest man that ever walked on this world. I will have mastered the powers of the heart. Surely you would want to bask in that fame?"
Taiyouko shoved him away and glared at him.
"The only thing that you would have accomplished with this experiment is how corrupted a heart can get. I won't stand by your side as you slowly kill yourself over such nonsense"
She walked away from him with angry tears in her eyes.
The man just smirked evilly as she walked away.
"It doesn't matter what you do. I will get the princesses of heart. All of them"
Taiyouko whipped her head around.
"I'll stop you before you get your hands on any of them! I won't let you continue playing with people's hearts and claiming that it's for the good of everyone! This ends now!"
She stormed out of the room and left the man to himself.
"We shall see about that"
He said.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Hikari shook the memory out of her head.
This memory was very similar to the one she saw in Wonderland. That guy was in this memory again and it seemed that he knew her mother well.
"What was mom so mad about? And who was that man? How does he know her?"
"We're about to land!" Donald called.
That made Hikari perked up.
"What world is this?"
"Agrabah"
Hikari got up from her seat and followed everyone out of the ship.
"I'll deal with that memory later" she thought as she stepped onto the sand.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
In a different part of Agrabah, Maleficent and Jafar were walking down one of the roads that made up the place.
"And the keyhole?" The evil sorceress asked.
"The Heartless are searching for it now" Jafar said.
"I'm certain we'll find it soon enough"
"So that just leaves…"
Jafar's pet parrot, Iago landed on his shoulder.
"Jafar! I've looked everywhere for Jasmine" the bird said.
"She's disappeared like magic!"
Jafar scowled.
"That girl is more trouble than she's worth"
Maleficent looked at him coldly.
"You said you had things under control" she said.
"Agrabah is full of holes for rats to hide in" Jafar replied casually.
"But why worry about princess Jasmine? With her or without her, surely this world will be ours when we find the keyhole"
Maleficent walked forward a little.
"We need all eight princesses of heart to open the final door" she said.
"Any fewer is useless"
"Well, if the princess is that important, we'll find her" Jafar said.
He summoned up a few heartless.
"Find the princess and bring her to me at once"
They ran off through Agrabah to find Jasmine with Iago's help.
"Don't steep yourself in darkness too long" Maleficent warned.
"The heartless consume the careless"
Jafar simply walked off to find Jasmine.
"Your concern is touching but highly unnecessary" he said as he left.
Little did he know, Jasmine was hiding behind one of the street vendors and had heard what they were talking about. She ducked her head down when she saw Maleficent looking in her direction.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"Geez, this place is hot!"
Sora was fanning himself as they walked around the market place.
"It can't be as bad as the islands" Hikari said.
"It can get pretty warm there too"
"I know, but we usually get a breeze at least! I haven't felt a gust of wind since we landed here!"
"Just suck it up. The sooner we find the keyhole here, the sooner we can leave"
Sora just nodded and followed Hikari though the streets.
They ran into a couple of heartless along the way, but they would just freeze them with blizzard spells. Since this was a dessert like world, the heartless here were bound to be fire type.
"This place seems kind of run down" Hikari examined.
The buildings of this world were crumbling apart and parts of the walls were missing on some. The streets were dirty and there were turned over jars that had spilled contents on the ground. The vendors hardly had anything and didn't appear to sell really well.
"Maybe it's because this town is out in the middle of nowhere?" Goofy asked.
Sora just shrugged.
"I don't know how we're going to find a keyhole in a place like this"
"We'll have to search every nook and cranny with this place being so cluttered everywhere" Donald said.
"Talking about it isn't going to make the keyhole appear any faster" Hikari said.
"Let's just continue searching. We're bound to find something"
They walked just walked and searched the market place some more before they headed for the alley.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
They walked into a dead end when they entered the alley.
"Well, it looks like we won't find anything here" Donald said.
They heard someone moving near one of the crates that lined up against the wall.
"Who's there? Hello?"
Jasmine popped her head out to see who was there.
"Hey, it's a girl" Goofy said.
Hikari went up to her and held her hand out.
"Don't be afraid. We won't hurt you"
She helped Jasmine get out from behind the crates.
"Thank you" She said.
She looked at the strangers that were before her.
"Who are you?" Hikari asked.
"I'm Hikari, and these are my friends, Sora, Donald and Goofy"
"I'm Jasmine" the princess replied.
"My father is the Sultan of Agrabah"
"So that makes you a princess" Goofy said.
Jasmine nodded.
"Yes, but he was deposed by Jafar, who controls the city"
"Jafar?" Sora asked.
"You haven't heard of him?" Jasmine asked.
They all shook their heads.
"He's the royal vizier. He's gained evil powers and seized Agrabah"
"Sounds like how Maleficent took over my home world" Hikari thought.
"He's desperately looking for something… something called the 'keyhole'. Jafar caught me trying to escape, but he helped me"
"Who helped you?" Sora asked.
"We were hiding nearby, but he left a while ago to take care of something" Jasmine said.
"Oh, I hope Aladdin's alright"
"Aladdin? Where might I find this street rat?"
They all looked up to see Jafar standing near a ledge.
Hikari made a face when she saw his little rat tail for a beard.
"Gross!"
Jafar grinned evilly at them.
"Jasmine, allow me to find you more suitable company, my dear princess" he said.
"Those little street rats won't do, you see"
He let out a girl scream when Hikari flung her keyblade at him like a boomerang.
"Jasmine, run!" Sora declared.
The princess did so and ran out of the alley while they were distracting Jafar.
The Vizier glared at Hikari.
"Why you insignificant, little brat" he hissed.
He suddenly realized who she was when he saw her keyblade.
"Ah, Taiyouko's brat. I should have known" he muttered to himself
Hikari held her keyblade out and pointed it at him.
"Get lost, will ya? We won't let you harm Jasmine"
Sora pulled out his keyblade as well.
"Ah, the children who wield the key" Jafar said.
He summoned up some heartless.
"Be extra harsh on the girl" he said.
"I don't care if Maleficent needs her, I want payback"
He left the heroes with his heartless.
"Get back here, you coward!" Hikari called.
She jumped out of the way when a bandit heartless tried to cut her in half with its sword.
She knocked it out of its hand and sliced it in half.
"You may have a sword, but you sure don't know how to use it!"
They managed to get rid of the heartless in no time.
"Now what do we do?" Hikari asked.
"That Jafar guy got away and we don't know where Jasmine went"
"Let's just keep looking" Sora said.
Hikari sighed but agreed to it.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
They continued walking through Agrabah and found area's that were gated shut.
"How are we supposed to get through?" Goofy asked.
Sora spotted at type of keyhole in the wall.
"Hey, maybe this will open it"
He stuck his keyblade into the keyhole and turned it until he heard a click.
The gates opened up and allowed them to pass.
"That's one obstacle out of the way" Donald said.
They continued onward and looked for Jasmine and the keyhole.
They ran into a couple of heartless, including some that were disguised as pots.
"These heartless can be just about anything" Hikari said.
They entered back into the main street area and looked around.
"Where should we look next?" Sora asked.
"Let's search inside some of the houses" Donald said.
"Why would we want to do that?" Hikari asked.
"Maybe the keyhole might be in one of these houses. Who knows, we're bound to find something"
"You just want to be nosey" she thought.
Sora pointed to the nearest house.
"Hey, let's look through here"
The only way they could enter the house is by climbing up a rope that was hanging out in the open.
Climbing this up was a lot easier for Hikari then climbing up the vines in Deep Jungle. Plus, she could use the wall as leverage when she struggled.
"I guess living on an island does pay off" She said to herself.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
There wasn't much to the house when they entered it. There were a few rugs hanging on the walls and some that were used as curtains for a window.
"Wow, there's barely anything to this place" Donald said.
Hikari rolled her eyes.
"Well, you wanted to look in the houses. I bet they're all like this since this place is out in some type of desert"
She spotted movement out of the corner of her eye.
"Huh?"
She turned around and saw a dresser standing in the middle of the room with something underneath it. It was trying to get out with it thrashing around.
"What the heck is this?"
She pushed the dresser out of the way and saw that it was a magical carpet.
The carpet got up and bowed to her before flying out the window.
"Did that carpet just fly?" she asked herself.
"That carpet flew off towards the desert" Donald said.
"Let's follow it"
"What about Jasmine?" Sora asked.
"We'll find her later; I have a feeling that we should follow that carpet"
Hikari just sighed.
"Great, another goose chase" she said as they headed for the desert.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
When they reached the outskirts of town, all they could see was a vast sea of sand. The desert stretched out as far as the eye could see. There were no trees and no traces of water anywhere. It was just all sand.
Hikari held her hair down when the wind picked up.
"I don't want to get sand in my hair" she whined.
"You can be such a girly girl, you know that?" Donald said.
Hikari glared at him.
"And you can be a real pain" she snapped back.
She didn't forgive him over the Riku incident.
"Come on you guys. Can't you two just get along?" Goofy asked.
"I would if he wouldn't act like such a jerk all the time" Hikari retorted.
"He can be such a stiff"
"I'm just being serious" Donald said.
"We're on a very important mission and we don't have time to fool around"
"We're off trying to chase a carpet, how is that being serious?. You need to lighten up, or else this trip is going to be super boring"
"This isn't a vacation! We need to find the king!"
"And I want to find Riku! I was so worried about him and just when I finally find him, you chase him away! You know I wanted to find him just like you want to find your king!"
"We don't have time to be searching for everyone, our main objective is to stick with the keyblade bearers and find the king"
"It's not all about what you want! Sora and I have been going to worlds, sealing keyholes, searching for your king and do we get a thank you from you? No! It's just 'let's go to the next world'. You never give us any credit you over size duck!"
She and Donald had lighting between their eyes as they were glaring at each other.
"Oh will you two just shut up!" Sora cried.
"You're acting like a bunch of little kids!"
Goofy nodded.
"We're suppose to work as a team. How are we going to do that if you two keep fighting? It's like I said before 'all for one, and one for all'. We're in this together, so we need to help each other. That includes searching for the King and Riku and Kairi"
Hikari and Donald just crossed their arms and looked away from each other. Goofy did have a point, but they didn't want to admit to it so easily. If they were going to continue this quest, then they had to put aside their differences and work together.
"I'm more than willing to cooperate with Donald if he doesn't take everything so seriously and lightens up a bit" Hikari said.
"I will cooperate too if Hikari doesn't continue whining about her precious Riku and takes this quest more seriously"
Hikari glared at Donald
"I'm sealing up keyholes, aren't I?" Hikari asked.
"You know what I mean. I meant don't goof off and act like this is a vacation. This is very serious stuff. The Heartless are after the worlds and we need to stop that. Quit acting like a kid and take your job as a keyblade bearer more seriously"
Hikari sighed in annoyance but gave in.
"Fine, but only if you ease up. I hate stiffs who take everything so seriously"
"Fine"
They both held out their hands and shook on their deal.
Sora sighed and placed his hands behind his head.
"Now that we have that aside, let's go find that carpet"
They didn't have to search for too long, since out of nowhere, the carpet appeared before them.
It flew around them a couple of times before landing in front of them.
"That was quick" Goofy said.
Sora went up to the carpet.
"Hey there" he said.
"Uh, I don't think it can talk, Sora" Hikari said.
The carpet moved around frantically and pointed out towards the desert.
"What's the matter? Are you trying to tell us something?" Sora asked.
The carpet got behind him and started pushing him in the direction that it was pointing towards.
"I think it wants to take us somewhere" Sora said.
"Should we get on?" Goofy asked.
"I don't know" Donald said.
"There's something about this carpet that doesn't seem right"
"Well, it flies, so there's your first clue" Hikari said.
Sora got on the carpet and sat down. He waited to see if it would throw him off, but the rug stayed put.
"It seems safe. Come on you guys"
They all slowly climbed on and held onto the edges.
Hikari looked to see the carpet hovering a few feet above the ground.
"I guess this isn't so bad" she said.
The carpet suddenly went up a few more feet and took off farther into the dessert. The magical rug zipped through the endless sea of sand like a rocket and made everyone hold on for dear life.
"I take that back! This is crazy!" Hikari shouted over the wind.
She held onto the back of her hair to make sure her ribbon wouldn't come out.
"Where is this thing taking us?!" Donald shouted.
"Who knows? We'll just have to find out!" Sora replied.
They held on tightly as the carpet took them to some unknown destination.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The carpet eventually took them to part of the desert that was really dark. As they arrived, they didn't realize that the sand was sucking up a man and his pet monkey.
Hikari was the first to get off. Her hair was messed up from the ride and was all over the place. She held her ribbon in her hair and tried to flatten her hair back in place.
"My hair" she whimpered.
Donald would have complained, but he was in the same situation as her. His feathers got ruffled by the breeze and they were sticking out and making him look poofy.
Sora fixed his spiky hair before looking around.
"Where are we?"
"Probably somewhere in the desert" Hikari said.
"I wonder why that carpet took us here of all places?"
Just then, bandit heartless appeared.
"Maybe for this?" Goofy asked.
Sora and Hikari whipped out their keyblades.
"That magic carpet took us all the way out here to fight heartless?" Hikari asked.
"Stupid rug!" Sora cried.
They went into the fray and started fighting the heartless.
Hikari immediately cast Aero on everyone so they wouldn't sustain serious damage from the heartless. She found out that the bandit heartless liked to throw their swords around and have them spin around the whole area. Whenever they got rid of a group, another batch of heartless would come up from the sand.
Hikari blocked one of the bandit's swords and kicked it out of the way.
"Stupid heartless!"
She cast thunder on it and watched as it zapped to dust.
The fighting went on for a couple of minutes.
Hikari kept getting closer to the sand pit as she kept fighting. When she destroyed the heartless that she was fighting, she finally spotted the man stuck in the sand pit.
"Oh my!"
She slid into the pit and started pulling the guy out. When she saw that he was out cold, she slapped him across the face a couple of times.
"Hey! Wake up!"
The man woke up and noticed that he was being pulled out of the sand pit.
Sora, Donald and Goofy went to see what was going on, but they were interrupted by another swarm of heartless.
"Gawrsh, not again!" Goofy cried.
The man was finally able to get out of the sand pit, thanks to Hikari's help.
He pulled out a lamp from his back pocket and rubbed it.
"Genie, get rid of these guys!"
Smoke came out from the lamp and produced a blue man. The magical being let out a victory cry as he came out.
"Wish number one, coming right up!"
He snapped his fingers and made the heartless disappear.
"Wow, that was pretty convenient" Sora said.
They all looked at their new companion that they found.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
As they left the sand pit area, everyone introduced themselves to each other. The man that Hikari had saved called himself Aladdin while his pet monkey was named Abu.
Sora told them about how they rescued him while he was knocked out.
"I see, thanks you guys" Aladdin said.
"Aladdin, what're you doing out here?" Hikari asked.
She found it odd that a man would want to be stuck out in the middle of the desert.
Aladdin just grinned.
"Same old stuff. Hunting legendary treasure" he said.
"Just paid a visit to the Cave of Wonders"
The magic carpet that they were riding on before landed next to them.
"I found that magic carpet, and this lamp"
Aladdin pulled out the lamp that he had used before to get rid of the heartless.
"Legend has it that whoever holds the lamp can summon the –"
The blue man that was in the lamp suddenly interrupted him.
"Please, kid, leave the intros to the professional. The one and only GENIE OF THE LAMP!" Genie cried.
"Rub-a-dub-dub the lamp and have your dearest wishes granted!"
He went behind Aladdin and patted him on the arms.
"Today's winner is…Aladdin! Congratulations!"
Donald looked intrigued by the idea of a Genie granting wishes.
"Any wish?"
Hikari rolled her eyes.
She figured he would want to wish where to find his king.
"Then again, I would wish to find out where Riku went" She thought.
"Patience, my fine, feathered friend" Genie said.
"I can grant any three wishes! A one wish, a two wish, a three wish. Then I make a banana and split!"
Hikari giggled, she thought Genie was funny.
"Our lucky winner made his first wish"
"And let me tell you, what a doozy that wish was" he whispered to Sora.
"So he has two wishes left! So master, what'll you have for wish number two?"
Aladdin thought about it for a moment.
"Hmmm, how about making me a fabulously wealthy prince?" he asked.
"Ooooh! Money! Royalty! Fame! Why didn't I think of that?" Genie asked.
"Okay, you asked for it! A hundred servants and a hundred camels loaded with gold! Just say the word and I'll deliver it in 30 minutes or less, or your meal is free! Hey, I'll even throw in a cappuccino!"
Aladdin laughed while he waved his hands.
"No, thanks"
Genie shrugged.
"Okay"
Hikari snickered at the whole scene. It was like watching a comedy pair.
"I think I'll put that on hold until we reach Agrabah" Aladdin said.
"Why do you want to be a prince?" Goofy asked.
Aladdin blushed slightly as he rubbed his head.
"You see, there's this girl in Agrabah named Jasmine" He said.
"But she's a princess, and I'm…aw, she could never fall for a guy like me"
Hikari felt bad for him. She had heard this kind of scenario hundreds of times in the fairy tales that she heard when she was a kid.
A poor peasant man falls in love with a princess and he thinks that the princess won't love her because he's broke, but in truth the princess doesn't care about that at all and loves the man for who he is and not for his status.
She always thought those stories were romantic.
She suddenly remembered Aladdin saying Jasmine's name. They had met a princess named Jasmine before they headed for the desert. The same princess who was trying to get away from Jafar.
"Uh oh!"
"Uh, Princess?" Donald asked.
"Jasmine?" Goofy added
It seemed like everyone else realized the scenario as well.
"Oh! That's right! She's in trouble, Aladdin!" Sora cried.
Aladdin was surprised.
"What?! Well, come on! Let's get going!"
They got on the magic carpet and flew off to Agrabah.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The rid to Agrabah was a lot better than the rid to rescue Aladdin. Since he was with the group now, he was able to control the carpet better.
Hikari enjoyed the breeze that blew through her face. It reminded her of the islands and how the wind would blow across the ocean. It almost made her homesick.
Genie flew next to them and sighed as he felt the fresh air.
"Ah, fresh air! The great outdoors!" he said.
"I guess you don't get out much, huh?" Sora said.
"Comes with the job" Genie said.
"Phenomenal cosmic powers. Itty-bitty living space. It's always three wishes, then back to my portable prison. I'm lucky to see the light of day every century or two"
Hikari felt bad for him. That had to suck.
"Say, Genie. What if I use my last wish to free you from that lamp?" Aladdin asked.
"What do you think?"
Genie was surprised.
"You'd do that?" he asked.
Aladdin nodded.
"Genie, it's a promise. After we help Jasmine"
They headed back to Agrabah to rescue Jasmine.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
When they returned to Agrabah, the noticed that the main entryways were blocked up by crates.
"How are we supposed to get through the city?" Sora asked.
"Just follow me. I know how to get through this city thanks to living out on the streets" Aladdin said.
They followed him through the secret path ways that were throughout Agrabah.
They ran into a couple of fat bandits and bandit heartless. Since they had Aladdin in their group, that made things a lot easier for them. He would take care of the bandits with Sora and Goofy's help while Hikari and Donald took care of the fat bandits. They were built a lot tougher, so physically fighting them was a challenge. Luckily, they were weak against magical attacks, so that's where Hikari and Donald's expertise would come in. These bandits seemed to like spewing fire out of their mouths. Since they gave away their strength, they knew what its weakness was. They would cast blizzard on them and freeze them in place. Donald would cast blizzard on a few and Hikari would hack them away while they were covered in ice. The fatty beings would break into chunks of ice.
They seemed to work well when they were fighting together. But they still needed to work on getting along better when they were traveling.
They continued to follow Aladdin and ran into more heartless. Not only were they a hassle, but so were the spider pots. It seemed like there were more of these little pests than last time.
This gave Hikari a bad feeling.
They continued to walk through the city and tried to find ways to get to the palace gates. They figured that since Jasmine was a princess, then she would be near the palace.
They had to climb up a few buildings to get towards the palace. The gates leading towards it were always closed, so no commoner would be able to enter. But since Aladdin knew every secret passageway in Agrabah, he was able to get them there in no time.
"Wow, Aladdin. You know this city like it was the back of your hand" Sora said.
"It's one of the upsides to being a street rat" Aladdin replied.
They went through an opening in the wall that they were next to and found themselves within the palace entrance.
They stood on one of the roofs and looked down to see Jasmine with Jafar next to her.
"There's that guy with the rat tail for a beard" Hikari said.
Sora shushed her so they wouldn't be heard.
"Looks like that Jafar guy is trying to kidnap Jasmine" Sora whispered.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's rescue her!" Aladdin urged.
They all jumped off the roof and landed in front of Jafar and Jasmine.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Jafar sneered when he saw the keyblade bearers and Aladdin.
"Setting your sights a little high, aren't you boy?"
Jafar stood before them looking regal as ever.
"Back to your hole, street rat. I will not allow you to trouble the princess anymore"
"Jasmine!" Aladdin cried.
The princess tried to run to him, but Jafar held her back.
"I'm so sorry, Aladdin"
Aladdin held Genie's lamp behind him and rubbed it.
"Genie, help Jasmine. Please!"
Genie suddenly appeared behind Jafar and held Jasmine in the air.
"One wish left. You're making this really easy, you know" Genie said.
Jafar laughed evilly.
"So sorry, boy. I'm afraid your second wish has been denied"
Iago went up to Jafar and handed him Genie's lamp.
Aladdin looked at his hand to see that the lamp was gone.
"Huh?!"
Jafar held the lamp in his hand, becoming Genie's mater.
Genie's head slumped.
"I'm sorry Al"
He disappeared back into the lamp, dropping Jasmine into a pot.
Jafar waved his hand and brought forth the head and tail to the pot centipede heartless.
"And know, I bid you all farewell. Attack!"
He disappeared and left them with them at the mercy of the centipede heartless.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Now Hikari understood why she had a bad feeling about the spider pots from before. They made up the body for the pot centipede. Something told her that if the pots became the body, then they were in big trouble.
While the pots were gathering around the head and tail to form the body, she jumped into the group and started hitting the pots. Some of them broke while others just pushed her away. She almost got trampled at one point, but Sora pulled her out before that could happen.
"Don't let the pots connect with each other!" she said.
"The heartless won't be able to fight properly if it doesn't have a body"
Sora nodded and warned the others.
Aladdin was more concerned of looking through the pots than attacking them. Since Jasmine feel in one of them, he didn't know where she was at.
Everyone made sure to stay away from the head as they were fighting. Whenever they got rid of the group of pots it was going to use for its body, it would zap them with its antennas before ramming its head into a pile of crates that blocked the pathways through the city.
They ran after it when it tried to summon up more spider pots for its body.
Goofy rammed into the pots when it started to become the centipede's body.
It wasn't so bad fighting, but it was a long task. They had to make sure every single spider pot was gone before they could attack the heartless. They focused more on the tail since it really didn't attack like the head did.
When the tail was gone, they went for the head. They kept getting zapped by its antennas so Hikari cast Aero so they wouldn't seriously get hurt.
Sora landed the finishing blow to the heartless and set its captive heart free.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Aladdin looked around the area when the heartless was gone.
"Jasmine!"
They could hear Jafar's laughter throughout the city.
Aladdin had an idea of where he went.
"To the desert! Come on, let's move!"
They ran through the city and headed back for the desert thanks to Aladdin's carpet.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
They arrived back to the spot where they had first found Aladdin.
"Why are we here?" Hikari asked.
"This is the entrance to the Cave of Wonders" Aladdin said.
"Cave? All I see is sand" Donald said.
Just then, the ground started to rumble underneath them.
"What's going on?" Goofy asked.
The sand started to rise and take the shape of a tiger's head.
"This is the Cave of Wonders" Aladdin
They waited for the head settle before they went to enter. When they got close to it, the head snapped its mouth at them.
"What the?!" Sora cried
They noticed that the tiger's eyes were glowing ominously.
Hikari examined them a bit more.
"What's up with its eyes?"
"The tiger is being controlled by the heartless!" The voice said in her head.
"Crush the power of darkness!"
Hikari didn't know what to do, but she had a feeling that she had to fight this thing.
She pulled out her keyblade.
"Looks like we have to do some more fighting" she said to her friends.
"Hope you're all ready for this"
The tiger shook its head and shot out beams of light through its eyes.
Everyone had to jump out of the way so they wouldn't get hit by them. They had learned their lesson after fighting the heartless chameleon in Deep Jungle.
When the tiger lowered its head to bring up some heartless, Sora and Hikari jumped on its nose and attacked the eyes. When it reared its head back, they held on tightly to the ears and attacked whenever they got the chance to.
After a few minutes of fighting, they were able to bring the tiger back to its sense and calmed it down.
They were able to enter the Cave of Wonders and continue their search for Jafar.
The whole place was rigged with traps so they had to be careful where they stepped. If the traps didn't get them, the heartless sure did.
"Where do you think Jafar went?" Sora asked
"Probably the treasure room" Aladdin said.
"That's where all of the good stuff is"
"Then lead the way. You've been here before, so you should know where the treasure room is" Hikari said.
They carefully went for the treasure room with Aladdin leading the way.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The treasure room was something Hikari had never seen before. Gold piled up in mountains all over the place and were pouring to the ground like waterfalls. Gems were stuck to the walls to make intricate designs and glittered in the fire light to make rainbows. It was all too beautiful.
Donald was drooling over the sight. He had never seen so much gold.
"This place is amazing" Hikari breathed. She walked around and admired the area.
"I've never seen so much gold or gems in my entire life"
She looked at the piles of gold and noticed a piece of paper sticking out.
"Huh? What's this?"
She pulled it out, thinking that it might be a treasure map of some kind.
She examined it a bit and noticed that one of the sides were torn and that there were pictures on the page.
"This looks like a page from a story book"
A light bulb went off in her head and she realized that this was a page from the book in Merlin's home.
She looked around to make sure everyone wasn't looking at her before stashing the page in her pocket.
"I better keep a hold of this"
"Is this all there is to the treasure room?" Sora asked.
"There should be another room that you could enter through here" Aladdin.
They looked around the room and noticed that a pillar was blocking the entrance. It almost looked like it was connected to something from underground.
"I think the only way we can lower this is to go down to the lower level of the cave" Aladdin said.
The thought of going to the lower levels of the cave didn't really settle well with Hikari. She just knew that this place was going to be dark and she didn't to have any of it. She was beyond terrified of the dark and she hated being in it. She never knew what lay within that abyss and she never knew when something would attack her.
But when she looked at Donald, she remembered the deal that they made. If she wanted Donald to ease up, then she would have to suck it up and be the keyblade bearer that she was.
"Alright, let's get going" Hikari said.
"The sooner we get rid of this pillar, the sooner we can rescue Jasmine"
They left the treasure room and headed back towards the entrance of the cave. Aladdin went to a ledge and looked down.
"The pillar should be down here" he said.
Hikari looked down to see that it was pitched black.
She resisted the urge to shudder when she saw the dark.
"You can do this Hikari. Just remember that this will help save Jasmine, so suck it up. You're a keyblade
She gulped slightly and stepped a little closer to the edge.
Biting her lip, she closed her eyes and jumped down to the cavern below.
"Just remember, this can't be so bad" she thought.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"Ok, scratch that. This is SO bad!"
Not only was this place pitch black and she could hardly see her hand, but the area was pretty much surrounded by water and it was freezing cold.
She didn't know if she was shivering from the cold or if it was her fear of the dark.
"You ok, Hikari?" Goofy asked.
She nodded while her teeth chattered.
"I-I'm fine. T-the water's a l-little cold. N-nothing's wrong"
Sora knew that she was lying and that it was because she was afraid of the dark. She was used to swimming in any type of water, including the cold.
"Swim close to me" he said.
She nodded her head and swam with him.
They had to be really careful as they swam. Since they really couldn't see anything, they had to swim slowly so they wouldn't bump into anything.
They were able to reach a few ledges that lead them to other parts of the cavern as well as go down a few waterfalls.
When they reached the area that they felt was underneath the treasure room, they began searching for a pillar.
"You guys see anything?" Sora asked.
Donald cast a minor fire spell to light up the area.
He spotted the pillar a little ways off.
"Found it"
They looked at the pillar to see one of the slabs that made it was a little off and crumbling.
"It almost looks like someone stuck it in there recently" Hikari said.
"It was probably Jafar" Aladdin said.
Sora broke the slab with his keyblade and had the whole thing come down and opening up the path way in the treasure room.
"Alright, now let's head back for the treasure room" Hikari said.
"And to get out of this dark cavern" she thought.
They swam back to the main entrance of the cavern where there was a set of stairs that would lead them back to the upper level of the cave.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Meanwhile, Jafar was in the cavern of the treasure room with an unconscious Jasmine by his feet. Genie looked upset that he had to serve Jafar now.
The evil vizier held up his lamp.
"My first wish, Genie! Show me the keyhole!"
Genie just glared at him, but obliged.
He snapped his fingers and revealed the keyhole that was hidden within the wall of the cave.
Jafar laughed wickedly at the sight of the keyhole.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The heroes finally made it back to the treasure room. They ran into a few casualties, like Goofy bumping into one of the traps and nearly fell back into the cavern, and they had to fight a few heartless, but other than that, they were fine.
"Let's stop Jafar once and for all" Sora said.
They walked into the lamp chamber that was now open and went to settle the score with the evil vizier.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Back in the lamp chamber, Maleficent stood before Jafar. He had told her about what had happened and how it took him forever to find Jasmine and the keyhole.
"Those children again?" she asked.
She figured that they were bound to arrive here to find the keyhole. She just didn't think it would be so soon.
"They're more persistent than I expected" Jafar said.
"Why not explain the situation to that boy Riku? I'm sure he'll be thrilled to see the girl. Doing so may actually prove useful to our-"
He was interrupted by Sora and Hikari entering the chamber.
Hikari locked eyes with Maleficent and nearly gasped.
She looked the same as she did in her memory.
"Maleficent!"
The evil sorceress grinned evilly at her before disappearing.
Aladdin came forth and faced Jafar.
"Jafar, let Jasmine go!"
"Not a chance" Jafar said.
"You see, she's a princess- one of eight who somehow hold the key into opening the door"
"Open…" Goofy said.
"…the door?" Donald finished.
Hikari pondered over this for a moment. Could this door be connected to the one that she saw in her memory? The same one that her mother was angry over?
"But you fools won't live to see what lies beyond it" Jafar said.
"Genie! My second wish: Crush them!"
Aladdin panicked when Genie moved forward.
"Genie, no!"
"Sorry, Al" Genie said sadly.
"The one with the lamp calls the shots. I don't have a choice"
Jafar raised his scepter and placed a barrier over the keyhole and the entrance to the lamp chamber so they wouldn't escape.
Hikari and Sora pulled out their keyblades.
They didn't want to hurt Genie, so they decided to attack Jafar. If they attacked Genie's master, then the wish would be canceled.
Jafar floated up in the air as he chanted a spell.
Hikari ran away from Genie as he launched his attacks at everyone. She didn't know what she was doing, but she felt that she had to face Jafar. She one of the best magic users in their group, so she felt like she could handle him.
"Besides, mom was a very powerful mage, so maybe I'm one too"
She put her everything into her attacks. She countered each of Jafar's spells with her own. Whenever he would cast fire, she would cast blizzard. When he tried to zap her with a beam from his scepter, she used Aero to absorb the attack so it wouldn't hurt as much.
She couldn't really attack him since she had to dodge his attacks as well as Genie's. She almost got hit by him when he came by and started spinning like a top, hitting anyone that came into his path.
When she tried to hit Jafar again, he turned into a cloud of smoke and floated away from her and returned to normal when he was away from her.
She couldn't afford to let him get away. This was her moment to shine and she wasn't going to let her friends down. She couldn't let them always take care over everything.
She ran across the room and held her keyblade out in front of her and aimed it for Jafar's chest.
When he landed on the platform to where the keyhole was, she jumped up and rammed her keyblade into his chest.
Jafar let out a strangled cry as he was struck down.
Genie's was broken off and he stopped attacking everyone.
Hikari's blizzard spell was even upgraded.
She turned to Sora.
"Sora! The keyhole!"
He ran up to the platform and aimed his keyblade at the keyhole. Hikari was about to do the same, but she was interrupted when Jafar spoke.
"Genie! My final wish! I want you to make me an all- powerful genie!"
Genie gulped and covered his eyes with his hand. His other hand shook as he pointed at Jafar and zapped him with his magic.
Jafar's body glowed with the magic. The ground surrounding him suddenly collapsed and revealed another room underneath. Jafar floated down to the chamber.
Aladdin went to Jasmine's unconscious body.
"Jasmine!"
Hikari examined her.
"She's just unconscious. We'll take care of her once we get rid of Jafar"
They went to the ledge of the platform and looked down. They could see lava flowing around a set of platforms that were above the hot liquid.
"I hope no one is afraid to get a little burned" Goofy said.
They all jumped down and landed on the platform.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The area was really hot when they landed on the platforms. The heat coming from the lava was making their skin burn and causing them to sweat. The barrier that Hikari's charm made suddenly kicked in and she felt herself getting cooler.
"Well. This helps me out. Now I don't have to worry about getting burnt"
Sora looked around the cavern.
"Where's Jafar?"
The lava suddenly burst up into the air and revealed a genie version of Jafar.
He laughed wickedly as he looked at them.
Iago flew by holding Jafar's lamp.
Hikari suddenly remembered Genie saying something about being tied to his lamp.
"Phenomenal cosmic powers. Itty-bitty living space"
She turned to her friends.
"Guys! Get Jafar's lamp!"
They looked at her confused.
"Remember what Genie said about him being tied to his lamp? Since Jafar is a Genie now, then that means he's tied to his lamp too. We need to get it so we can send him back into the lamp"
They all nodded at the idea.
Jafar held up a giant ball of lava in his hands.
"Look out!"
They all jumped out of the way as he threw it at them.
Hikari looked up to see Iago flying over her head.
"Get back here, you stupid bird!"
She jumped up and started hitting the parrot so he would drop the lamp. The bird appeared to be a lot stronger than he looked because he wouldn't let go, even when she hit him.
Hikari went to hit him again, but she got caught in the crossfire of Jafar's attack. She didn't get hit directly with his fire ball, but she got grazed by it when it hit the platform. Her back burned from the heat of the lava. If she didn't have her barrier up, she would have suffered worse.
"Hikari!" Sora cried.
Hikari just shook her head as she gritted her teeth.
"This is nothing" she said.
"Just try to get that lamp!"
She healed herself quickly and went back into the fray. She cast Aero on herself to strengthen her barrier even more.
"Let's see you try to get me with this" she said to herself.
She jumped up the platforms and got to the highest one there was.
She was right in front of Iago as he flew towards her. He was too distracted by Sora and Aladdin attacking him that he didn't notice what Hikari was about to do.
Putting he keyblade away, she positioned herself on the ledge and put all her weight into her legs.
"This better work"
She jumped off the ledge and soared through the air. When she was within reach of Iago, she threw her arms out and wrapped her fingers around the black lamp.
"Got ya!"
She held onto the lamp tightly and quickly flipped through the air so she could land on her feet.
"Sora! Catch!"
She threw the lamp at him and cheered when he caught it.
Sora held the lamp up and pointed it at Jafar.
"Okay, Jafar! Back to your lamp!"
Jafar screamed when he felt himself being pulled into the lamp.
"NOOOOOO!!!!"
He was sucked right up into his portable prison.
"You know what they say: be careful what you wish for" Hikari said.
A piece a paper floated through the air and landed into Hikari's face.
She pulled it off and looked at it.
"What is this?"
When she read the first few letters, her eyes went wide.
"It's a page to Ansem's report!"
The area shook slightly.
"Let's seal the keyhole and get out of here!"Donald cried.
They all got on Aladdin's carpet and headed back to the upper level.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
While this was all happening, Jasmine had finally regained conciseness.
She peered over the side of the ledge that she was on to see down below.
She feared for Aladdin's safety.
Just then she heard footsteps behind her.
When she turned around to see who it was, everything went black.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
The magic carpet dropped Sora, Hikari and Aladdin to the keyhole.
Aladdin searched the area when he couldn't find Jasmine.
"Jasmine? Jasmine!"
Sora and Hikari aimed their keyblades at the keyhole and sealed up Agrabah.
"Now the light of this world is saved from darkness" Hikari thought.
The area started to shake after the keyhole was sealed.
"Whoa. We better get out of here!" Goofy cried.
They all got on the carpet as the ceiling started to collapse.
Sora and Hikari had to practically drag Aladdin on the rug.
"Jasmine!"
The carpet flew off just as the ceiling caved in.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
It was a race against the clock as they flew. They had to get out of the Cave of Wonders before in submerged back into the sand.
Sora was steering the carpet as they flew, which was a bad idea. He didn't know how to driving anything so they were afraid that he would crash them into something. But since Aladdin was upset over Jasmine, they couldn't have him steer.
Hikari held onto her side of the carpet for dear life. Every time Sora made a sharp turn to avoid getting hit by a loose rock, she would slip and had to cling to the edge.
"Hey! Go easy will you! I don't want to fall off!"
"Try telling me that when we aren't flying for our lives!" Sora retorted.
They flew past an area that was filled with lava.
When a geyser of lava suddenly shot up, Sora jerked out of the way a little too quickly for everyone's comfort.
Hikari lost he grip on the rug and she felt herself falling.
She screamed when she felt herself falling off the rug.
"Hikari!"
Donald grabbed onto her hand before she could fully fall off the carpet and was just dangling in the air.
"Help!" she screamed.
She had to lift her legs up to avoid getting hit by the lava.
Donald put all of his strength into pulling her up.
"Don't worry. I won't let go!"
He held onto her hand tightly and managed to pull her back up on the carpet.
Hikari had tears in her eyes as she looked at Donald. She really thought that she was going to die, but Donald saved her. She never realized that he would care so much.
She hugged him tightly as they flew.
"Thank you!"
She sobbed quietly as they reached the exit. Donald just patted her back and let her cry. He did say he would be more easy going, so why not start now?
They flew out of the Cave of Wonders just as it was about to collapse.
They all cheered as they headed back for Agrabah.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
They all went to Aladdin's house when they returned.
Sora had explained to Aladdin that Jasmine was no longer on this world, much to Donald's annoyance. They weren't supposed to tell about the other worlds, but Sora felt bad for Aladdin.
"So, Jasmine's no longer on Agrabah" Aladdin said sadly.
He stood up and looked at Sora and Hikari.
"Sora, Hikari. Let's go find her"
The keyblade wielders looked at each other uneasily.
Sora had a black eye from Hikari punching him for nearly throwing her off the carpet.
"Sorry. But we can't take you with us" Sora said sadly.
Aladdin looked hurt.
"Wh-why not?"
"I sure wish we could…" Goofy said.
"But we can't" Donald said.
"If we take him to another world, we would be…"
"Muh…Mudd-" Goofy tried to say.
"Meddling" Donald corrected him.
Hikari grabbed Aladdin's hands and squeezed them.
"We'll find Jasmine. We promise"
She gave him an encouraging smile.
Genie suddenly appeared and patted Aladdin on the back.
"Uh, earth to Al. Hello? You still have one wish left." He reminded him.
"Look, just say the word. Ask me to find Jasmine for you. "
Aladdin thought for a moment over it. It was true that he still had one wish left.
He looked up sadly.
"I…I wish…for your freedom, Genie!"
Genie looked surprised.
"Al!"
The magical spell that binded him to the lamp broke. He no longer wore the metal cufflings on his arms and instead of having a tail, he had a pair of feet.
Aladdin smirked.
"A deal's a deal, Genie" he said.
"Now you can go anywhere you want. You're your own master now"
Hikari smirked.
So he didn't forget his promise after all.
"A loyal friend till the end"
Aladdin looked at Sora and his group.
"But, if you can, it would be great if you could go along with them and help Sora and Hikari find Jasmine"
Genie thought for a moment.
"Sorry , Al. I'm done taking orders from others"
Aladdin looked down sadly.
Genie smirked.
"But… A favor, now that's entirely different. I guess I could give that a try"
He placed his arm around Aladdin's shoulder.
"After all, we're pals, right, Al?"
"Genie" Aladdin said quietly.
"Just leave it to me!"
Aladdin smiled at that.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Back at the Villain's Vale, Maleficent, Hades and Riku watched over a looking mirror. They had all seen what had happened to Jafar.
"That smarmy vizier could've had 'em" Hades said as he looked at Riku.
"If someone had stuck around to give him a hand"
Riku didn't seem phased
"Hey, I did my part. I brought the princess , didn't I?" he asked.
"Jafar was beyond help, consumed by his own hatred" Maleficent said.
"One should beware of letting it burn to fiercely"
Hades waved his hands in front of him.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, lighten up. I'm as cool as they come, ok?"
He turned to Riku.
"By the way, kid, have we got something special for you"
Riku looked at Maleficent.
"We had a deal, yes?" she asked.
"You help us and we grant your wish"
An image of Kairi appeared on the mirror.
"Kairi!" Riku cried.
"Go to her. Your vessel is waiting"
Captain Hook appeared before them.
"Just remember, this is no pleasure cruise" he said as he held up his hook for a hand.
"It won't be a pleasant voyage"
Riku looked at Maleficent.
"Why are you doing this for me? What's the catch?"
Maleficent tried to appear innocent.
"Catch? What's the catch?"
She went up to him and held his face with her hand.
"Silly boy. You're like a son to me. I only want to be happy"
Riku looked disgusted as he swatted her hand away.
"I seriously doubt that" he said.
"Besides, it'll take a lot more than this to make me happy"
Maleficent smirked evilly, knowing that it was Hikari that he was talking about.
"Believe what you wish. But lest we forget, I kept my end of the bargain"
Riku just looked at her darkly before walking off.
Maleficent just smirked, knowing that her plans were going accordingly.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Back in Agrabah, everyone bid their farewells to Aladdin.
"Here, take this with you"
He handed Sora Genie's lamp so he could summon him whenever he needed help.
"Please find Jasmine for me" Aladdin said to them.
Sora nodded.
Hikari went up to Aladdin and patted him on the shoulder.
"Just remember, Aladdin. You don't have to be a prince to win Jasmine's heart. From what I've seen, she cares about you for who you are, not because of your status"
She grinned.
"Take it from a girl's perspective. We aren't looking for guys who have a nice face or are filthy rich. We want someone who loves us with their whole heart and would do anything for us. That's the kind of guy that we want. And you my friend fit that category perfectly"
Aladdin smiled at her.
"Thanks Hikari"
"Anytime. Now don't be down in the dumps. We'll bring Jasmine back and she'll be in your arms in no time. But until then, keep your spirits high"
With that, they all said goodbye and went back to their gummi ship.
As they walked, Hikari looked at Donald.
"By the way, thanks again for saving me in the cave of wonders. I didn't know you cared"
Donald looked flustered at the compliment.
"Ah, phooey. I just didn't want to lose one of the keyblade masters. Our king told us to look after you, so that's what I was doing"
Hikari smirk, seeing right through his excuse.
"Uh-huh, sure"
Sora looked at Donald.
"Hey, can I drive the ship?"
Donald glared.
"Not on your life!"
Everyone looked at him.
"Don't forget our promise" Hikari said.
"I've been keeping my end of our deal so far"
Donald sighed with annoyance.
"At least not by yourself. I will be supervising"
Sora cheered and ran to the ship.
Hikari smirked at Donald.
"Thank you"
She gave him a hug.
Donald just waved her off.
"Yeah, yeah"
They got on the Gummi ship and started it up.
"Now Sora. I want you to take it easy" Donald said.
"And don't crash into anything"
Sora didn't really pay attention and just zipped off of Agrabah and into space.
Everyone was holding on tightly while Donald was screaming at Sora.
Hikari just laughed at the whole thing. At least now she was getting along better with Donald.
She wondered what adventures were awaiting for them next.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
A/N: And there you have it. This is probably the longest chapter I've written so far for the story (I don't really know anymore, they're all so long). So Hikari and Donald are getting along now, that's good. I wonder what Riku is going to do about Kairi? Does he care about her, or does he care about Hikari? You'll just have to find out.
Remember to send me your answers to the question up top and please send me a review.
I hope this makes up from my absence, but hey, finals are really important.
See you until next time!
Ja ne!
