Chapter Three

The Fatality of The Three Caballeros

Shenzi made her way towards the back door of Disney World, hoping to find Oswald and either threaten or beat the zipper back to Africa out of the rabbit. "Should be easy" she thought to herself, "after all, he's a rabbit."

Oswald was walking on the edge of Disney World, not really doing anything and just enjoying the day ahead when Shenzi came up to him, teeth barring. Oswald paid this no heed and continued, knowing that as long as he stayed in Disney World grounds, Shenzi couldn't possibly hurt him. Shenzi snapped at him, "Geez" Oswald, exclaimed as he waved the air, "you ever hear of this new invention called toothpaste?"

Shenzi rolled her eyes, "Just give me the zipper!" she yelled, wanting to get out of Disney World as soon as possible. "Umm no" Oswald replied, "why would you want to leave anyway? It's Disney World. The Most Magical Place on Earth." Shenzi laughed, "You're serious right? I'm a hyena. I don't belong here, my place is in Africa. Besides, it wasn't neccessaryily my idea to come here anyway." Oswald sighed, he hated to play devil's adovcate, for on one hand he wanted to help Shenzi but on the other, he wanted to help Banzai. But then he remembered that he didn't really care, but in a strange way Oswald did, for Banzai was generally nice to him and the rabbit couldn't see any reason to stab him in the back by allowing Shenzi to leave.

Oswald got in between Shenzi and the back door, preventing her from leaving, even though he knew that it was pointless, mostly because the only way for her to get back to Africa would be if she had Oswald's zipper. It just felt reassuring to stand in front of soemthing that represented escape. "I'm sorry" Oswald said, "but I can't let you leave." Shenzi raised her eyebrows defensively, "And why not?" she asked, getting more and more annoyed with each second she stayed in Disney World. "Because Banzai loves you" the rabbit replied, "and I'm his friend. And friends don't let friends go through the world alone, not without the girl hearing him out." Shenzi huffed, "I already did that" Oswald cut her off, "That's because you were listening with you ears."

Shenzi's face was riddled with confusion for she did not understanding Oswald's analogy, "Of course I was" she answered, "what else could I have done?" Oswald shook his head in disbelief, "Try listening with your heart. You'll be amazed at what it can tell you." Shenzi stopped, thinking about the issue, she turned back to the rabbit, "What is your's telling you?" she asked. Oswald smiled, "Mine is telling me to rebuild Os-Town. So if you'll excuse me, I'm off to make the world a better place." Oswald then walked away and headed for the new, undelevoped land that Disney World had accquired to go over blueprints with Horace, leaving Shenzi to contimplate on Oswald's words.

Banzai ran through EpCot, looking for a suitable kill. Panchito and Donald followed after, "That's enough Banzai!" Panchito screamed as he tried to get a shot off, but having no success. Donald looked around and noticed that they were in Mexico, "Panchito" Donald said, "I have an idea!" Running over to the pyramid, Donald ran to the top and grabbed Serape , Panchito's, well Serape . Getting on Donald patted Serape , who greeted Donald with a quick embrace and did the same to Panchito. "Listen Serape " Panchito said quickly, "we have to stop Banzai. Go get your cusion Carpet and meet us here okay?" Serape nodded, but Donald shook his head in disagreement. "Banzai could have already killed half of the people in EpCot by that time Panchito." Donald cried, "Use your head!"

Panchito nodded and thought long and hard, so much that it caused Donald to twitch nervously, "I got it!" the rooster exclaimed, "Really?" Donald said sarcastically, "it's about damn time!" Panchito whistled and in an instant Senor Martinez, his horse, appeared out of thin air. "Martinez" Panchito said looking directly in the horse's eyes, "go after that hyena!" Martinez laughed, not believing what Panchito was telling him to do, "I'm serious Martinez! Get your ass after that hyena!" Martinez shook his head, "No" he replied, "you must think I'm really stupid don't you? It's a hyena, I'll be killed!" Donald rolled his eyes, he didn't have time for this, Banzai was going on a rampage after all. Gettting on Serape , Donald pointed forward, "Go!" he cried and Serape carried Donald as fast as he could in Banzai's direction.

Panchito looked after Donald and Serape and got on Senor Martinez, "Vamos!" Panchito cried. Martinez remained motionless. Panchito kicked the spurs, "I said vamos, Senor Martinez" Martinez huffed, "Yeah" the horse answered, "I heard you." Panchito leaned in, "Well then? Are you going to move?" Martinez shook his head, "Nope. I'm not risking my hide for you. I've got a date to get in three hours and I haven't done shit to prepare for it." Panchito scoffed, "Really? You have a girlfriend, where was I?" Martinez rolled his eyes, "The same place you were last time. In a bar, beating up random strangers who were just trying to play a simple game of poker until you just had call one of them an ugly horse ass face. Which I find incredibly insulting, both to me and to you." Panchito sracthed his head in confusion, "Why would you find it insulting to me?" Martinez laughed, "Because surely you can come up with a lamer threats. That was the worst I've heard from you. Usually, they're pretty lame, but that one was spot one. I expected more from you Panchito I really did." Panchito sighed, "Look this is getting us nowhere. Are you going to move or not?" Senor Martinez huffed again, "You want me to move? Okay."

Martinez bucked, sending Panchito flying into the sombero stand. "That's for bringing me here" Martinez yelled, "you asshole! Don't bother calling me again, cause I won't answer." Panchito stood and brushed himself off, "Why don't you just go back to your bitch and leave me alone eh? I don't need you." Martinez smiled, "Stop lying to yourself. You need me and you know it, I'm the one who's self reliable in this relationship. So I guess that makes you my bitch too." Martinez then whistled and disappeared. "Oh yeah one more thing" Martinez said invisibly, "if you ever call her a bitch again. I'll kill you Pistoles. Understand?" Panchito laughed, but that was quickly stopped short with his collar being grabbed and Martinez appearing once again, grasping Panchito with his right hoof. "Understand?" Martinez threatened, Panchito nodded nervously and Martinez set him down, "Good...asshole." Martinez then disappeared again, this time leaving Panchito alone.

Donald got close to Banzai, Searpe was just about to give out, for he had been going at full speed for twenty minutes straight. At that moment, Iago and Jose appeared from the China side of EpCot, effectively trapped Banzai between the two. Donald saw Jose and immediately pulled out net, "Jose!" Evasive maneuver 412!" Jose nodded, "Right mi amigo!" he turned to Iago, "grab the net Iago." Iago grabbed his corner of the net and began wrapping it around Banzai while Jose ran around to the other side, making it as tight as possible, Donald meanwhile tried to get Banzai to clam down. "Banzai" the duck said as he stepped off Searpe and on to flat ground once more, "What's wrong eh?" Banzai was foaming at the mouth, he looked fereal, in fact, for better or worse he was. "Not that you would care any way" the hyena growled, "no one cares about me. Why? What did I do? Nothing! I give and give and the one time that I ask for something in return, not only am I denied, but I am insulted, berated and publically humilated for it! You're just like her you know. All you people ever are is ungrateful bastards! I did everything, I gave my heart and soul into this place and for what? Well I will not be made a fool of. I will not stand for this." Banzai turned to Jose, "Take me back to Africa Jose."

Jose was hesistant, for he knew that Banzai was not in his right state of mind, "Senor...I can't. You're not well and besides, it would break the Thr-" before Jose could finish Banzai cut him off, "Don't you dare!" he cried, "Don't! The Three Caballeros right? Well let me tell you something you pompous idiot. You can't expect three friends to constantly be together, it's not natural! Let them live their own lives as they please without having you to force things down their thorat and maybe, just maybe, you might still be friends. If anyone should know what I'm talking it's Donald. He's been taking bullshit from you and that fucking rooster for years! You people are the worst kind of friends! Leave him the hell alone."

Donald hung his head, for he knew that everything that Banzai said was completely true. Jose was close to crying, for he had never fully realized the damage that The Three Caballeros could bring, in any form. It was a curse on society, a stain that had to be cleaned. It didn't make a difference who the members were, The Three Caballeros had to die, and this time, permamently.

Panchito ran up, breathing heavily. At that moment Jose pulled out his umbrella and rapidly opened and closed it, sending Banzai back to Africa. "Where'd he go?" Panchito asked, "He went home Panchito" Jose answered, "he didn't belong here. So I sent him home." Panchito stood there in disbelief, "But what about the-" Jose cut him off by slamming his umbrella on the ground, breaking it in two. Jose tackled Panchito to the ground, "Don't you get it!" the parrot screamed, "It's over! There is no more Three Caballeros! There is no more us. We are dead! Dead! As in never coming back. How many hints do we have to give you! Donald is out! He's been out ever since the beginning and we kept dragging him down straight into Hell!" Jose turned to Donald, his tone of voice never changing, in a way he was still yelling at Panchito, "Damn us!" he looked up at the sky, "Damn me! Send me down to the depths of the Underworld never to see the light of day. I have cursed this man" Jose pointed to Donald, "to die alone and with no one, all because of my selfish and idiotic desires to finally have one who I could call friend."

Jose breathed easier and turned back to Panchito, "The Three Caballeros is not friendship. It's slavery. Well I won't be a part of it anymore, never again." Jose then walked away, "Where are you going?" Panchito asked in desperation, "I'm going home Pistoles" Jose answered, "and I'm never coming back." Panchito was close to crying, for he had already lost Donald, he didn't want to lose Jose, "Please Jose, don't leave. I-I-I'll" Jose cut him off, "You've already done enough" he answered harshly, "do yourself and everyone else a favor and go home. Don't come back." Panchito was now blubbering, "But I-" Jose raised his wing, stopping him. Jose then whistled and disappeared.

Iago stared at Panchito, saying nothing and only flew away towards Main Street. That only left Donald. Panchito slowly turned around to face his friend, "Donald...please..." Donald shook his head and took off his sombero and poncho, for he had been in Mexico, at the same time leaving him naked. "No Panchito. It's over" the duck replied as he made his way into the lake to swim down to the bottom and retireve his extra set of clothes that he kept for just such emergenices.

Panchito made his way back to Mexico and immersed himself with the human crowd. In his own way, he had begun to grieve.
