(Dawn Mane Town – Amy and Cheese's apartment: Bedroom)
Amy was putting a blue rose on Tsuki's head and she gestured to the mirror.
"Tsuki, what did you think? Isn't stunning or what?" She asked.
"I look fancy! Thank you, Amy." Tsuki charmed as Amy winked at her.
"You're welcome, Tsuki!" She said as Cream hugs around the cushion when she sits on the couch.
"Oh, Tsuki is so pretty, right Cheese?" Cream asked as Cheese chirped in agreement.
"I hope Taiyo and his friends would coming here." Tsuki said as Lightning walked in Amy's room.
"How things get along?" She asked.
"Oh, Tsuki and I were getting along just fine, Lightning." Amy answered.
"That's good." Lightning smiled.
"Then what are you going to do?" Tsuki asked.
"I need to do some workout." Lightning said.
"Seriously again, Lightning? You've been training on the rooftops all day!" Amy said.
"I know but I can't let my skills gone rusty." Lightning said.
"Well, I come with you and watched what are you doing." Tsuki said as she gets off from a chair and walked to her.
"Alright but be watchful of my training. It might get risky." Lightning said as she and Tsuki left Amy's room as Amy's bedroom. Amy huffed in slight disappointment.
"Why don't I bother her. Oh, well. Cream, would you go with me to the park to get a little fresh air?" She asked.
"Oh yes, I loved to!" Cream said.
"But we wait for Sonic and he would come to see me." Amy dreamed about his boyfriend, Sonic.
(Dawn Mane Town – Center Area)
Taiyo, Luigi, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and Diddy Kong have arrived in Dawn Mane Town.
"We're back in Dawn Mane Town again!" Yoshi said.
"Yeah! We got quite a long journey to get here." Taiyo said.
"There's Cranky's clock shop over there!" Luigi pointed at the shop.
"My grandpa is in there?! Oh yeah!" Donkey Kong said as he and Diddy ran over to the shop.
"Hey, wait, guys! You don't have to rush!" Taiyo said, and he sighed.
"Let's go see to Cranky Kong." Luigi said as he and others followed them after.
(Cranky Kong's Clock Shop)
Donkey Kong and Diddy entered the shop as they heard Cranky's snoring was coming from upstairs and they both walked up to the stairs. Donkey Kong and Diddy followed the snoring sound into the room as they opened the door.
(Cranky Kong's Clock Shop – Cranky's Room)
They saw Cranky was sleeping on his rocking chair as Donkey Kong walked to his grandfather.
"Grandpa! Grandpa! Wake up, it's me DK!" Donkey Kong tried to wake him up as Cranky Kong opened his eyes to see DK and surprised at him.
"DK!" Cranky Kong hopped off from his rocking chair and hugged him.
"Grandpa!" Donkey Kong said as Diddy joined in to hug him in reunion. Cranky Kong let go of the hug and smiled at DK.
"My boy, I'm so glad you're alive!" His expression turned into stern as he whacked on Donkey Kong with his walking cane.
"Ow!" Donkey Kong yelped in pain and he rubbed on his head.
"But don't lose me again! You make your grandpapa worried about you! You cheeky big ape!" Cranky Kong scolded.
"I'm sorry, gramps!" Donkey Kong said as Taiyo, Luigi, and Yoshi entered the room.
"Oh, hello boys! You brought them back! I can't even say thank you but I appreciated with you!" Cranky Kong chuckled as he stroked his beard.
"No problem, Cranky." Taiyo said.
"Thanks, guys. That means a lot." Donkey Kong.
"Anyway, we have to go check on Tsuki and sees what she's up to." Luigi said.
"Right, we will see you later, guys." Taiyo said.
"Sure, DK and I stayed here with my grandpa Cranky." Diddy Kong said. Taiyo and others were left from Cranky's room.
(Dawn Mane Town – Backway Road)
Taiyo, Luigi, and Yoshi walked through the street, looking for Tsuki.
"Where is she?" Yoshi asked.
"I don't know, maybe she was wandering off." Luigi said as Sonic suddenly appeared right in front of them.
"Hey, guys. How was your trip to the other worlds?" He asked.
"Oh, it's not bad. We got three pieces of Geno's Gear and got four more to go." Taiyo said.
"Splendid job! Then why are you coming back here, guys?" Sonic asked.
"We found Donkey Kong and Diddy from Monstropolis, so we brought them here and stay living with Cranky Kong's shop." Yoshi answered.
"Oh, that's sound great! At least they were safe." Sonic said.
"Yeah, you can meet them over there. But anyway, where's Tsuki?" Taiyo replied.
"She was living with Amy and Cream's apartment. Follow me." Sonic said as he ready to dash but Luigi quickly stopped.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Don't act so rush, we can't have followed you there! How about we walked instead?" He asked.
"Oops! My bad." Sonic realized as he began to walk. Luigi sighed as he shook his head irritated, he and others followed him.
(Dawn Mane Town – Amy and Cheese's Apartment: Amy's bedroom)
Sonic opened the door for them as they all entered in Amy's bedroom. Amy and Cream turned at Sonic, Taiyo, Luigi, and Yoshi.
"Sonic! You're here!" Amy said as she ran over to him and hugged him affectionately. Sonic was blushed in embarrassment as Cream and Cheese coming forwards to them.
"Hi, guys." Cream greeted as Taiyo kneeled down on his knee and rubbed on her head.
"Good to see you, Cream." He smiled. Sonic pushed Amy away softly and she turned to them.
"Hey guys, so what brings you here?" Amy asked.
"I was wondering where Tsuki is and she's not probably here." Yoshi answered.
"She is hanging out with Lightning on our rooftops." Amy said.
"Okay, thanks, Amy." Luigi said as he, Taiyo and Yoshi left her room. Amy walked to Sonic, tilting to him and put an arm around him in the shoulder.
"So, wanna go out with me and Cream?" She asked, flirting him. Sonic moaned in nervously.
"Fine…" Sonic said which made Amy squealed in excitement.
(Dawn Mane Town – Amy and Cheese's Apartment: Rooftops)
Lightning trained herself by slashed with Blazefire Saber at different directions, Tsuki watched her and she was amazed at her skills.
"Wow, Lightning. You got some pretty moves. Where did you learn that?" She said. Lightning jumped in the air as she slashes, landed on the ground and said.
"Well, I enrolled the Guardian Corps Academy and I trained over there. This is where I encountered the Heartless as they invaded my school and home. I managed to escape but something happened, the light shined over me and it took me here in this world where I was safe from dangers." Lightning explained.
Taiyo, Luigi, and Yoshi walked up on the fire exit stairs and saw Lightning and Tsuki.
"Tsuki!" Taiyo called out to her, she noticed Taiyo and his friends.
"Taiyo!" Tsuki yelled as she ran to him and hugged him.
"Are you alright?" She asked.
"Oh, I'm okay. Just checking on you. So, how well did you stay with Amy and Cream?" Taiyo wondered.
"That was pretty cool. Amy and I talk a lot a thing between us, we were best friends." Tsuki said as she lets go of him and Lightning walked over to them.
"Taiyo, how was going with traveling your friends into the outside worlds?" Lightning asked.
"Well, things are going to be difficult." Taiyo said.
"The Heartless are getting stronger each time that we visited in different places." Luigi said.
"I see." Lightning said.
"You know, I'm started to get a little tired, but I have a feeling I need to do some challenge from you." Taiyo said.
"A challenge from me? Then I accepted it." Lightning believed.
"Awesome! Let's get this fight to begin!" Taiyo said, summoning his Warrior Key and hold it firmly.
Tsuki stands right next to Luigi and Yoshi as they watched the match between Taiyo and Lightning.
"But I'll give you five minutes because I'm setting the rules on this match. If running out of time limit, you will automatically lose in the fighting match but if you beat me quicker and then you win. You got that?" Lightning asked.
"Loud and clear, Lightning." Taiyo answered.
"Okay, do not hold back on this match." Lightning warned.
"I won't." Taiyo said.
"Taiyo, be careful." Tsuki said.
"Good luck." Luigi said.
Lightning cast the Time Limit spell into the sky, and it transformed into a Chocobo-themed digital clock with five minutes as it started at the countdown.
"I'll go first!" Taiyo said as he charged her with his Keyblade to swing her, but she jumped over him and kicked him behind.
"Too slow." Lightning taunted.
"I'm not!" Taiyo cried.
"Well, then just tried to keep up the pace!" Lightning said as she holds out her hand in the air. "Thundara!" The moderate version of Thunder strikes down on Taiyo as he luckily gets out of the way from being zapped.
"Whoa, that was too close to get burned into a crisped." He complained as he tossed his Keyblade at Lightning, but she deflected it and straight it back to Taiyo and he caught it in his hand.
"Stun Edge!" Lightning performed as her gunblade glowed in a streak of yellow energy.
She twirls slowly before striking him with her gunblade, Taiyo got stunned on his body as he dazed on something.
"Oh, I'm started to get dizzy." He murmured as Tsuki gasped.
"Oh no, he's stunned!" She said.
"Come on, man! Snap out of it" Yoshi yelled as Lightning is ready to strike him down, but Taiyo quickly snapped out of confusing and he cast the Fire magic spell.
"Fire." He shot the orb of fire at her which staggered the pink brunette teenager.
Taiyo strikes her down as Lightning skidded across the ground and stopped to stand.
"Nice. Try this!" Lighting said.
She glided through the air to strikes at Taiyo who dodged her slash attacks until she kicked him in the knee and pinned him down on the ground with her gunblade.
"Did you think you managed to beat me?" Lightning asked.
Taiyo then kneed her in the gut as she let him go and he swung her a few times.
Lightning stumbling back and she gazed at him with smug.
"Not bad for the Keyblade wielder. Blitz!" Lightning performed.
Her Blazefire Saber glowed in the white energy-like blade as Taiyo defended himself with his Keyblade. Lightning yelled as she jumped overhead-attacks at him, Taiyo blocked it, but Lightning managed to break through his defense, hitting him for couple times and he rolled across on the ground. Taiyo grunted in pain as he stands up.
"Think fast!" Lightning said as she changed her gun mode and aimed at him.
"Thundaga Shot!" She pulled the trigger, shot him with a bolt of lightning to shocks him and he falls on the ground.
"Taiyo!" Tsuki worried as she tried to stop the fight, but Yoshi stopped her.
"Let him do it on his own." He reassured.
"Taiyo, you only got one-minute left until you lose your fight." Lightning said as Taiyo weakly get up on his feet as his Star Necklace started to glow when he was in critical wounded and the blue aura surrounded him. Lightning was awed to see his aura.
"The Limit Trance!" She said as Tsuki was surprised what the aura does with him.
Then the same voice called him in his head as Taiyo closed his eyes.
"Taiyo, your Slashing Fury upgraded into Striking Assault. Use it for the quick move in order to win."
The mysterious voice is gone as Taiyo opened his eyes, he heard the ticking quickly as it nearly ran out of time and its shown thirty seconds.
Lightning didn't keep waiting as she tried to strike him, but Taiyo avoids her.
"Striking Assault!" Taiyo strikes her in dramatically speed, Lighting is grunting for each hit she got.
"He has wrapped it up!" Luigi shouted.
Lightning tried to defend herself, but she can't concentrate when she got beaten up. Taiyo then flinched her with one more powerful stroke as she is sliding across the ground and stopped. The timer had ten seconds left as Lightning was struggling to get up and fight, but she collapsed on the ground and the sign of defeat. The timer is turned into zero as it is beeping for the fighting match is over.
Luigi, Yoshi, and Tsuki cheered up to Taiyo. Taiyo roared in victory as Luigi, Yoshi and Tsuki ran over to him.
"You did it, Taiyo!" Luigi yelled.
"I thought you were going to lose." Tsuki said with a worried face.
"Hey, it wasn't that hard." Taiyo said as Yoshi bumped on his shoulder.
"And tried not to get carried away." He said.
"I won't be." Taiyo said.
"You passed the test."
Taiyo and others heard Lightning's voice as they turned at her. Lightning already rises on her feet, but she still had some bruises over her face, arms and legs.
"The test? Of what?" Taiyo wondered. The cosmic portal appeared next to Lightning as Rosalina stepped out of it and answered to him.
"Your potential, Taiyo. I sense you're awakening powers within your heart during on the travel to the other worlds with Luigi and Yoshi."
"Then how did you explain to him?" Yoshi asked.
"As the more enemies he fights, the more experience he earned, and his potential is almost mastered. I speak Lightning to prepare herself for his test." Rosalina said as Tsuki realized that.
"So that's why Lighting is ready and wait for Taiyo." She expressed.
"That is correct. So, for now on, Taiyo. As I bestowed the law of the Multiverse, I shall grant you the gift." Rosalina said as she held her hand to create the orb of light blue. The orb flying towards Taiyo as it landed on his silver bracelet and it glowed even brightly. Luigi, Yoshi, Tsuki, and Lightning gasped at him as the bracelet transformed into the Warrior Key Morpher.
The Keyblade Morpher is transformation device, allowing the users to become Keyblade Ranger and enhanced the strength, speed, agility and durability. As for Taiyo's Keyblade Morpher; its wrist device has a small keyhole on it and the small key like resemblance to Warrior Key (attached underneath the morpher bracelet). It has the same color as Warrior Key but with golden lining patterns.
"Whoa! What is this?" Taiyo asked.
"This is the Keyblade Morpher. It will give you a power boost. If there is a situation, use it well and becoming the 'Keyblade Ranger'." Rosalina said as everyone was surprised to hear.
"You mean he can morph like a Power Ranger?" Luigi asked.
"Unlike the Power Rangers, I can borrow energy source from the universal Morphing Grid that gives power to every generation of Rangers to create the Keyblade Morphers." Rosalina answered.
"Wow, that's awesome! You mean I can still wear it?" Taiyo asked.
"Not exactly." Rosalina said as Taiyo's morpher turned back into a normal bracelet which made him a disappointment.
"Awww. Seriously?" Taiyo asked.
"You can also switch your bracelet into morpher and there will no problem at all." Rosalina said, making Taiyo sighed in relief.
"Is that it then?" Luigi asked.
"Not quite. There is something I must give you brief information: The Keyhole of Darkness." Rosalina said.
"The Keyhole of Darkness?" Yoshi asked.
"The Keyhole of Darkness is the evil ancient magic that allowed the prisoners escaping from the Realm of Darkness. You see, Bowser learned that spell, he knows how to use it to free Ganon. But in order to complete the spell, so he needs the three Spirit Princesses of Heart." Rosalina said.
"The Spirit Princesses of Heart?" Taiyo asked.
"Spirit Princesses of Heart were the rulers of the Realm of Light and they had most pure lights in the Universe. They may not have related to the Princesses of Heart but supremacy than the others." Rosalina answered.
"Who were they?" Lightning asked.
"In my home world, there is Princess Peach, she is ruling over the Mushroom Kingdom." Luigi replied. "At Hyrule where Princess Zelda lived, but she got kidnapped by Snide. That makes one out of three." Yoshi said.
"And I was one of them myself." Rosalina said as Taiyo and others were surprised to hear it.
"You mean you're one from the Spirit Princesses of Heart?" Tsuki asked.
"Yes. I'm fully aware of that." Rosalina said. "Then how did you know Snide is not coming after you?" Lightning asked.
"Because Rosalina is a powerful sorceress in the Universe, Snide need to acquire the darkness from every villain's heart in each world and which means he'll get stronger to face her." Taiyo answered for her.
"Then we have to stop him now before we continued our mission." Luigi added.
"Remember, Snide would never find me as I will have stayed in my Interstellar Observatory Tower, I put the protective enchantments that it made unseen by the intruders. No need to be worried." Rosalina answered.
"Alright, thank you, Your Gracefulness." Taiyo said.
"You only addressed me as 'Rosalina.' You don't have to say it." Rosalina said as Tsuki walked to Taiyo.
"Taiyo, you have to be careful. I don't you to get hurt." She said as Taiyo takes his hand to lift hers and wrapped around.
"Tsuki, I promised I will see you again." Taiyo assured as Tsuki smiled as she leaned to him and kissed his cheek.
Taiyo felt a little blush on his face as he placed his hand on his face, Tsuki giggled as she walked back to Lightning's side. Yoshi nudges him in the shoulder.
"Ooh! Go get them, tiger." He teased as Luigi hit Yoshi on the back of his head.
"It's time for us to go, guys." Luigi said as he holds out the remote control but before he pushed the button, he interrupted by Donkey Kong's voice.
"Wait!" Taiyo and others saw Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong were climbed up here and both are exhausted.
"DK! Diddy!" Yoshi yelled as Donkey Kong and Diddy went over to them.
"We have to say something for a favor; good luck to you guys." Donkey Kong smiled as he has given a thumb up.
"Yeah, we're coming back after this." Taiyo said.
"Goodbye, everyone." Luigi farewell as he pushed the button and they were teleported back into the Stardash Ship. Unknown to anyone who unaware of two shadows figures and revealed to be two new Mobians.
Mighty the Armadillo, the strongest and fastest armadillo; comparing to Sonic's speed. He has black with red thick armor on his body which rounds from his forehead above to his lower back. His tail is black, as his body. Mighty's ears are side facing and funnel-shaped, and he has a medium-long and sharp black nose. Mighty's skin color, along with his ears, muzzle, arms, and belly are tan. His eyes were light brown and wear white gloves with sock-like cuffs and red sneakers with thick white soles, white cuffs, and white straps rounded off at each end, which does not reach the soles.
Ray the Squirrel was best friend and partner of Mighty. He has golden yellow fur and dark tan skin on his muzzle, inner ears and front torso. He has yellow eyes, a small tapered hair tuft at the top back of his head (making it appear somewhat teardrop-shaped), a furry skin membrane connecting his waist to his lower arms, small, perky triangular ears, a shiny, bulbous black nose, and a long club-shaped tail. He wears white gloves with large cuffs. He also wears blue sneakers with white soles. Each shoe has two white straps that do not reach the soles.
"Did you think we should leave them alone? Because I'm starting to get nervous." Ray said as Mighty puts a hand on his pal's shoulder.
"No, we will follow them without being seen and watched they do." He said as he and Ray left their sights and walked away.
Author Notes: After returning back to the Dawn Mane Town, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong were reuniting with Cranky Kong. Taiyo determined to get tougher when he wants to get any challenges he should faced like Lightning from Final Fantasy 13. He managed beat her in the fight as Rosalina revealed to him about a test. She is willingly given him the Keyblade Morpher that Taiyo can able to morph into Keyblade Ranger similar to Power Rangers. Don't forget to review after reading this!
