Arthor's Notes: Sorry for the long delay, but School and Football needs to come first. I know this chapter is short, and it probably isn't as good as my other chapters, but I tried. Just review.

"I'm so board!" Eddy whined. "I want to go home!"

"Deal with it." Donald yelled. "Tarzan told us we'll be there soon."

"Up there." Tarzan pointed up to the canopy of trees that had stopped most of the sunlight from getting through to the ground.

"What," Eddy asked. "All I see is trees."

"#*&^&" Tarzan yelled in his native language.

Within seconds, large gorillas revealed themselves to the group and jumped down onto the ground.

A gorilla with a silver back stepped forward to the group and began to grunt and growl at Tarzan as it pointed to the Eddy, Donald, and Nazz who was still in Tarzan's arms.

"$%&&#" Tarzan stated"

The gorilla grunted some more.

"#$^&(^^^^!!$%^&" Tarzan yelled before he walked back toward Eddy.

The gorilla turned its back to the group before it motioned to the rest of the gorillas to leave the area.

"What happened," Eddy asked.

"Kurchak no help." Tarzan said sadly.

"That jerk," Eddy yelled. "Who's Kurchak?"

"Look, um, we should get going." Donald said. "I want to meet up with everyone again before that guy kills us."

"Hey, don't go giving us bad luck. I still have a whole bunch of scams I need to do before I die."

(Jasmine)

Jasmine paced up and down the balcony of the tree house, clasping her hands together as she talked to herself. "Should I tell them? I don't want them to meddle, but I also want my kingdom to be at peace again, and there's no way I can do that without the help of Double D." She looked towards a large waterfall in the distance. "Ever since the Great Disaster, everything has been getting worse and worse, and I, I don't know what to do anymore."

"What," Bouquet asked, standing behind the window with a shocked expression on her face. "Your kingdom is in danger?"

"How much did you hear?" Jasmine said angrily.

"Enough to know that you need our help,"

"You don't understand, everything is extremely dangerous and I only want Double D to come."

"What about the rest of us, we're all good fighters!" Bouquet yelled. "I know we've only known you for a day, but you seem like a nice person."

"No, you don't understand. You could easily be killed."

Bouquet stood quiet. "Well, I,"

"Enough for now, we will talk more of this later." Jasmine said before walking back into the tree house.

(Eddy)

"That's it," Eddy yelled. "I know I heard something!"

"What, are you talking about?" Donald asked.

"I think something's following us."

"No, nothing," Tarzan nodded.

"You sure," Eddy sighed before he heard another sound. "See there it goes again!"

"Wait," Donald looked around, "I just sensed something too. It feels, dark."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know, I can't explain it!" Donald said back. "It's coming this way, get ready."

A large agile animal flew out of the shadows of the jungle.

"What's that?" Eddy asked, stepping back at the sight of the leopard.

"Sabor, but, he, different," Tarzan said, resting Nazz against a tree and getting into a defensive stance.

The leopard had very large fangs from the front of his snout that extended several inches from of his mouth; he also had dark purple armor around his torso which had the Heartless insignia imprinted on it. His claws were also now extremely long and sharp and appeared to be made out of metal.

"I don't think he's going to run away now." Donald yelled.

"Yes, he protecting his honor, either he die, or we die." Tarzan stated with a stolid look on his face.

"We can take him!" Eddy boldly shouted.

The leopard growled back before getting in its prowling position before jumping towards the group.

"Shield," Donald pointed his staff in front of the group protecting them from the beast's constant slashes.

"You can't get me," Eddy taunted.

Sabor snarled before turning his attention to Nazz, who was unconscious and unprotected from Donald's shield.

"He's gonna eat Nazz!" Eddy yelled.

"Stop," Donald yelled, waving his staff as the force field around them dissipated before yelling, "Fire,"

A ball of fire flew from his staff and struck the leopard on its sides, sending it sliding a few feet back.

"Don't touch her," Donald yelled. "You want us!"

An anime sweat drop appeared on Eddy. "He wants you; you're the one yelling at him."

"Not now!" Donald squawked.

Without any further notice Sabor leaped onto Donald, biting into his left foot with his oversized fanged making Donald scream in pain.

Tarzan tackled the leopard, making it jump off Donald and back onto the ground. Tarzan rapidly trusted his spear at the beast which dodged each one of the fierce blows with ease.

"Take this," Eddy yelled as he hit the leopard's torso with his weapon, doing little to no damage to his armor.

Sabor countered the by slashing its claws towards Eddy, making Eddy fall to the ground with a large rip in his shirt. Next, Sabor began to step on Eddy, resting one paw on Eddy's chest while placing the other on his neck.

"Sabor, stop," Tarzan yelled angrily while holding his spear directing in front of him. However, before Tarzan could successfully attack, Sabor used the paw that was on Eddy's chest to stab Tarzan through his chest, making the tall man fall to the ground.

"What," Eddy yelled as he noticed that Tarzan's body was beginning to fade away.

Once more the leopard pressed its foot on Eddy's chest while it pressed down on his neck with the other foot.

"Donald, help." Eddy managed to choke out.

"Okay," Donald weakly said as he held out his staff. "Thundaga,"

An enormous bolt of thunder shot out from his staff and hit the creature, sending it flying through the trees of the jungle and out of their sight before a loud explosion was heard.

"Congratulations," They weakened group heard Clayton's voice say.

Eddy looked to a small path through the jungle where he saw Clayton who was riding on his Chameleon Heartless.

"It's you!" Eddy yelled. "Why'd you have to come now?"

"It'll be that much easier to kill you," He answered, while loading his rifle. "I'll have to give you credit, you kept me searching all night, but, where's the rest of your group?"

"They're hiding, and you'll never find them." Eddy stuck his tongue out.

"Stupid Jane," Clayton chuckled, "she thought she would be safe in that tree house, I can't wait to see her face before I kill her."

"No," Tarzan said almost completely faded away. "You won't get her!" In one last desperate attempt before he disappeared, he threw his spear at Clayton who had caught it with his hand when it was only inches away from his face.

"That was close," Clayton smiled. "Had you thrown that any faster I might not have caught it in time, but you didn't and you lost your last chance to save the gorillas and Jane."

"Please, protect, Jane." Tarzan stated before her disappeared from sight.

"Pitiful," Clayton laughed.

"I'll get you!" Eddy yelled as he picked himself back up. "I'm gonna make it through this, go back home and eat jawbreakers with Ed, and Double D again. Just wait, I'm gonna kick you butt!"

(Poopoo)

Poopoo, who was resting on top Ed suddenly stood straight up as the pom pom on his head began to shake.

"Poopoo, poo poo ku poo poo." He yelled in Ed's ear.

"What," Ed sleepily said.

"Poo poo kupo poo poopoo."

"You need to watch the monster movie marathon on TV?" Ed asked. "Sorry Poopoo we don't have a TV, but I brought my comic 'Zebra of the Moon!"

Poopoo nodded his head from side to side. "Poo Poopoo kupo Poopoo."

"Are you hungry," Ed asked. "Oh I still have a leftover piece of candy that I got for Christmas, it was supposed to be for Eddy, but he said it was hairy so I stuck it back on my leg." He pulled up his pant leg to show that he had his leg covered with all sorts of snacks.
Poopoo angrily nodded no once more before he flew out of the window, and down into the jungle below.

"Don't forget the pretzel" Ed yelled throwing his hairy pretzel onto the Moogle's pom pom, sticking to it.
