Goofy and Donald raced through the maze up of streets that was Traverse Town, both of them filled with an air of excitement. It was actually thanks to Goofy for the most part, for

he had been the one to view the entire ideal that had stirred hope in the hearts of the two servants of the King.

"If you are right about what you claim to have seen Goofy, we may be done with this entire business before it has even begun" the wizard quacked as the two companions (with Jiminy

still in Goofy's pocket) rounded about the corner of one of Traverse's side streets and came to face a set of doors that marked the third district lying beyond them.

"I just hope we are not too late" Goofy added, but Donald shook his feathered head and adjusted the blue cap he wore.

"Too late, please Goofy. If this guy was as skilled as you said back at the Hotel than I am sure he can handle himself fine against one of the larger of those Heartless creatures"

Donald argued as he tried to pull open one of the third district's heavy wood doors, but the thing wouldn't budge for the wizard, whom let out a furious quack when the door refused to

open for him.

"Thats it" Donald seethed, drawing his wand and aiming at the set of doors. The duck then recited a spell that allowed a burst of fire to eject from the wand tip, but the flames

did not leave a burn upon the wood.

"Lets try another entrance in, Donald" Goofy suggested, the wizard agreed and the two ran off to try their luck getting into the district through another of its entrance's.

Leon furiously attacked the large Heartless with floating armored limbs, but his attacks only clanged off the creature as it continued to make its way toward the terrified Keyblade

warrior, who stood with his blue eyes wide.

"Come on Sora, help me att --" Leon began to shout breathlessly with a glance back to the boy, but his words were cut in mid sentence by the fist of the Heartless connecting with

his back and sending him flying through a window.

"Leon!" Sora cried, but the boy didn't get a chance to help his fallen friend. The Heartless swung one of its claws at the boy and nearly took his head, luckily the armored fist only grazed

him. The boy rolled back to avoid being crushed beneath the armored heel of the large creature as it took another step toward him.

Donald and Goofy had found another entrance into the district and after passing through it they found themselves upon a balcony overlooking the third district. Both

quickly caught site of the Keyblade warrior facing off against the giant Guard Armored Heartless.

"There he is Donald, the one with the key the king spoke of in the letters!" Goofy cried in excitement, jumping with joy as he did. In his pocket Jiminy felt ill as he was tossed about.

"Goofy relax or you will draw attention to," Donald began to warn his companion ,"Us" the duck concluded as the demonic Guardian Heartless appeared before the wizard with

a grin upon his terrible face.

The creature then approached the duck with a twisted grin upon its face,as the Heartless got closer Donald could see his own image refracted in its gleaming eyes. Behind him Goofy

had a similare problem involving two of the clanking armored Heartless, who twitched with each step toward the Captain.

"I thought I sensed two fools enter the third district, and it appears I judged my senses correctly" the Heartless master said with a sneer directed toward the wizard, who held up

his wand, ready to fight the approaching figure.

"This is it Goofy, fight for the King!" the wizard cried, racing forward in harmony with his companion, but both were quickly defeated and thrown from the balcony, ascending high toward

the twinkling stars above before they felt gravity take hold and pull them back toward the third district plaza below.

The two slowly opened their eyes to find the plaza spinning before their dazed faces, the two slowly refocused and found themself lying upon the groaning key weilder, who

held the Keyblade out before him as the two servants of the King sat upon him.

"The key!" both shouted in unison as they took in their first sight of the mysterious weapon that could hold the key to helping their master.

However the three soon found themself scrambling into defensive stances as the Guard Armor Heartless crashed just a few feet from them, his claws clenching as if anticipating its

crushing of their bodies in its large armored fists, meanwhile the Guardian Heartless appeared also at its side with a swarm of the clanking writhing Heartless behind him.

"We have orders to stick with you key weilder, therefor we will start by helping you to defeat these Heartless guys, right Donald?" Goofy spoke behind his shield to Sora, glanicng over

at the duck, whom looked ahead toward the coming battle fiercly.

"Right" Donald spoke quickly, and then without another word the three raced forward to combat the creatures of darkness.
