Here's part 2. I hope everyone likes it. I changed up some things in this one. What are they? You'll have to read and find out. But, I think ya'll are gonna like it nonetheless.
Chapter 28 - A Battle Between Friends
Halloween Town - Oogie's Manor
As soon as Cody, Bridgette and the others had crossed into the next part of the graveyard, they were confronted by a large group of Heartless. The bridge and gate to the next area were guarded by Shadows, Search Ghosts, Wight Knights and Gargoyles. This was a very tough battle, requiring a good deal of healing from Lindsay. But they had won after about ten minutes of fighting.
Cody, Jack, Noah, Lindsay and Bridgette had crossed the bridge, entered through the gate and walked down a path. They now found themselves at a gigantic, deep canyon. In the center was the largest tree Cody had ever seen. There were buildings built all around it, as well as large Jack-o-Lanturns lined up around the entrance. A large wooden bridge connected their path to this mansion built on the tree. They could see the three pranksters riding the walking bathtub down the bridge.
"There's Lock, Shock and Barrel." Cody pointed out. "Let's get them before they can get inside!"
Cody ran toward the bridge with Bridgette, Lindsay, Noah and Jack behind him. Two Gargoyles appeared when they were about half way through. Noah used Thundara on them. Cody and Bridgette finished them off with their weapons. With those Heartless gone the heroes continued down the bridge. When they finally reached the other side, a group of Wight Knights appeared.
Cody hacked and slashed away at one. Bridgette used Aquaspheres on another Heartless, while Jack and Noah used fire and blizzard spells on two more. The Heartless were defeated a moment later.
"We must be at the right place." said Bridgette, making her trident vanish. "Judging on the amount of Heartless that keep popping up."
Cody and Lindsay were inspecting the double doors at the entrance. Then they both grabbed a door and pushed them open. Inside was a spiral staircase that led upward. The group of five ran up the steps and onto another wooden bridge with metal fencing on the edges and tree branches poking out.
It took them a while to reach the top of the manor. Not only was the trek up here long, but they kept getting stopped by Heartless on their way up. By the time they reached the last building, they were tired. Lindsay's cure spell quickly fixed them up, but they still needed to catch their breath. Well, everyone except for Jack.
"Well friends, are you all ready to confront those thieves?"
"How do you know their in there?" Noah asked the skeleton.
Jack pointed to a sign above the door that read "Evil Playroom". Noah raised an eyebrow, then shrugged. The thieves were children he reasoned.
After the four junior heroes had finished catching their breath, they nodded and joined Jack by the door to the next room. Cody opened the door quietly and they all entered the room.
Halloween Town - Evil Playroom
The four teens and Jack had entered a small room. There was an old sofa near the wall with stuffing and springs poking out from it, a ventilation shaft on the floor, and a machine in the corner with a lever sticking out from it. They saw Lock, Shock and Barrel just in time to see them throw the heart into a pipe. They turned around at the sound of the door closing.
"Uh oh, busted!" exclaimed Barrel.
"Get them!" cried Shock.
""Get them?"" repeated Noah, snickering at the kids. "That's a good one. What're you gonna do, hit us with woofle bats?"
Cody and Bridgette chuckled, which seemed to make the three kids angry. Barrel charged and rammed his head into Noah's groin. The pain was terrible. The black mage fell to his knees and held on to his sore kiwis. The other two immediately stopped laughing as Lock and Shock charged at them.
Cody and Bridgette moved out of the way just in time. Jack and Lindsay avoided another headbutt from Barrel. What Now? Because they were kids, Cody didn't feel it was right to use their weapons against them. Hell, it wouldn't be right to use their fists or feet against them either. What could they do to stop Lock, Shock and Barrel?
As Cody's group continued to avoid the wild attacks, the pain Noah felt in his kiwis was subsiding, and he could use his brain again. He had an idea about how to stop the trick or treaters without hurting them. He got back to his feet and put his plan into action.
"Oh Lock? Shock? Barrel?" Noah called out innocently. The three kids stopped attacking and turned to the bookworm.
"What? What do you want?" asked Lock sternly. Cody, Lindsay, Jack and Bridgette stared at Noah in confusion.
"I've got some candy for you." he told them as sweetly as he could.
Though they couldn't see their faces due to their masks, Cody and the others could tell that Barrel, Lock and Shock seemed excited, considering their heads perked up at Noah's sentence.
"Really?" Lock gasped excitedly. "Where is it?"
"Just come a little closer and I'll tell you."
The three kids hastily ran over to Noah and hopped up and down, waiting to get their candy. Unfortunately for them, Noah fired a Blizzara spell at them which froze their little bodies together. They struggled to break free, but Noah's spell had frozen them very well.
"Hey! You didn't have any candy!" yelled Barrel.
"Of course he didn't, Stupid!" cried Shock. "You fell for the oldest trick in the book!"
"So did you!" Lock retaliated, banging his head against her's, which made all of their masks fall off.
Cody, Bridgette, Lindsay and Jack joined Noah and stared down at the three troublemakers, who trembled at the older kids' gaze. "Alright, you three. What did you do with the heart?" interrogated Cody.
"We were just following orders!" answered Shock timidly. "Oogie Boogie told us to steal it. It's all Barrel's fault! It was his idea to tell him about the heart."
"Yeah, that's right!" added Lock, then he told Barrel. "You should be ashamed!"
"B-But you guys said..." Barrel defended himself, seeming confused.
"Look, we don't care about that." interrupted Bridgette, crossing her arms. "Just tell us what you did with the heart. Where does that pipe lead to?"
"To where Oogie lives." replied Barrel. "If you want to go down there, just pull that lever and jump into the trapdoor over there."
"You bonehead! Why did you tell them that?!" snapped Lock, banging his head against his.
Noah smirked, then used a small fire spell to melt the ice around the three kids, freeing them. Lindsay went over and pulled down the lever Barrel had mentioned. The vent door opened up. Cody and Jack looked over to see a deep, dark hole that seemed to go down a mile deep.
"Thanks for the information you three." said Jack kindly. He then jumped into the trapdoor. Cody looked at his three guardians. They all nodded, then one by one they jumped into the pipe and slid down a dark slide toward Oogie Boogie's lair.
Halloween Town - Torture Chamber
Cody shot out of the pipe slide and landed next to Jack. Bridgette landed on her butt, while Noah landed on his feet. Lindsay fell on top of Cody when she shot out. Bridgette got up to help them up, stroking her sore bottom on the way.
"Sorry, Cody!" Lindsay apologized as Bridgette helped her up.
"It's cool." said Cody painfully. Bridgette and Lindsay both helped him to his feet.
"Whoa!" exclaimed Noah. The other three turned to Noah, but they were now able to see what he was staring in awe at.
The room they were in was a large and circular chamber. There was a pit in the middle that looked like it should be in a casino, or maybe some kind of game show. It was a giant roulette wheel with a spiked crank in the middle and pictures of hands, cats, skulls and other things around the edges.
Jack however, was looking across the wheel to the other side of the chamber. Standing on a raised platform was what Cody thought was a giant burlap sack with limbs. It laughed rather stupidly as he looked at the five of them.
"Oogie Boogie! Give back the heart!" Jack shouted at the giant bag.
Oogie laughed again. "You want it? Well, then come on over and get it!"
Suddenly a girl appeared from behind Oogie Boogie. Cody couldn't see what she looked like. But his attention was turned back to Oogie as he shoved the heart into his mouth. Jack looked aghast, while the tech geek and his guardians looked disgusted. And so was the bag man's partner.
"Ugh. You're disgusting!" cried out the girl in revulsion. Oogie Boogie chuckled darkly.
Cody froze at that voice, and he felt his insides disappear. Bridgette, Noah and Lindsay also went wide eyed at the voice. And now that they looked more closely, they saw a spot of teal hair.
"Gwen?" Cody muttered. "Is that you?"
Gwen looked over at the people behind Jack Skellington. How did he know her name? She squinted, and then her eyes went wide as realization hit her. It was Cody. This world had changed his and the others appearences. She growled, then summoned her own portal and disappeared.
"Gwen! Wait!" Cody shouted. He knew that Gwen had heard him, but she wouldn't even acknowledge him. Why? As he was mulling all of this over in his head, Oogie continued laughing meniacally, not aware that his partner had just left him.
"Now, let's see if I can get their attention." he said darkly. Then he cried out "Oh, Heartless!"
Cody summoned his keyblade, while his guardians brought out their weapons. They weren't sure just how many Heartless were going to appear. Their question was answered when two Gargoyles appeared next to Oogie.
Cody looked at Bridgette and Jack in confusion. Oogie looked between his "army" of Heartless in confusion as well. "This is it?" he mumbled stupidly. after gazing back and forth between his two minions, his body shook furiously. "Nobody disrespects me! Nobody!"
Cody's group was suddenly shoved into the pit by a powerful gust of wind. They all landed on their feet, then they gazed up at Oogie Boogie. The pit was too high for them to jump out of. Oogie threw something into the pit. Looking closer, they saw a fire bomb in the shape of a red and yellow dice. They jumped out of the way just in time as the dice exploded.
The two Gargoyles flew toward the teens. Jack shot fire spells at one, which killed it. Lindsay used Reflera to block the other Heartless' attack, Noah followed up with a Thundara attack to finish it off. Oogie continued to toss his dice bombs at Cody and Bridgette, but he wasn't able to hit them no matter how hard he tried.
Then he threw two red dice onto the roulette wheel. Cody couldn't see the numbers on them due to them disappearing a second later. Oogie apparently did though, because he cried out "Ten! Come out, Buzzsaw!"
Sure enough, a buzzsaw appeared from an opening in the pit. It spun toward the wall, then ricocheted toward Lindsay and Noah, who jumped high to avoid it. It bounced of the wall again, then another wall, then it sped toward Bridgette and Jack, who jumped out of the way as well. While the teens and Jack continued to avoid the buzzsaw, Oogie couldn't stop laughing.
The buzzsaw disappeared a moment later. It was then that Cody noticed the floor and saw giant buttons that were glowing. He looked up and saw that Oogie was standing directly across from one of the buttons. He signaled this to Noah, who was standing near it. The bookworm nodded, and silently signaled to Jack, Bridgette and Lindsay. Jack and Bridgette seemed to understand, Lindsay however, seemed confused. Bridgette grabbed Lindsay's hand and led her over to Noah.
Everybody gathered over by the button. Oogie was too busy cracking up to notice what they were doing. Noah jumped onto the button. Suddenly, spiked poles shot out from the lining of the cat's space. The same spikes shot out and surrounded Oogie, who immediately stopped laughing and looked on fearfully as the spot around the junior heroes rose up to the point where they could jump up and reach him.
Cody smirked, then he, Jack and his guardians jumped into Oogie's makeshift prison and charged at the giant bag of bugs. Cody swung his keyblade, Bridgette slashed with her trident, Lindsay used her wand and both Jack and Noah used fire spell after fire spell. They just wailed on Oogie for what seemed like five minutes, until Cody used the Sonic Blade move. After six thrusts, Cody swung the final blow. Oogie swung his arm hard in desperation to make the heroes back off.
The spikes disappeared. Cody and Jack watched as a seam had split down Oogie's stomach. He cried out in pain as his guts burst from the wound. However, on closer inspection, Cody saw that it wasn't guts, but a swarm of bugs, that had burst from the bagman.
"Ewww!" shouted Lindsay in disgust. "Oh, I hate bugs!"
All of the bugs started falling into the roulette pit. As bugs continued spewing out of Oogie's wound, his body began to sink onto the floor as he screamed in pain one last time. His body lay sprawled, flat and empty on the ground. One final bug, a blue one tried to run away. But Noah ran over and stomped on it, killing it.
Cody and Jack walked over to the cloth that was Oogie's body. Jack picked up the artificial heart, while Cody picked up a sheet of paper that had appeared. He showed another piece of Ansem's report to Bridgette, Noah and Lindsay. They all smiled and nodded.
"So, this heart was a failure after all." said Jack, obviously disappointed. He looked sadly at the heart he held. Then he tossed it into the pit with the rest of Oogie's bugs.
Cody looked at Jack sadly. But before he could try and comfort him, the room began to shake violently. Noah and Lindsay both fell to the ground as the tremor increased in strength.
"W-W-What's goooing ooon!" Bridgette cried, her voice trembling due to the ground shaking.
"Let's get out of here!" Jack yelled. He spotted a door on the other side of the chamber that they hadn't noticed before. "That way!" he pointed. Cody, Bridgette, Noah and Lindsay turned and saw the door. They and Jack immediately sprinted toward it.
Halloween Town - Oogie's Manor
They had made it outside. They ran down a path that seemed to go to the canyon floor as the ground continued to shake. Cody, Bridgette, Jack, Noah and Lindsay continued running until they were close to the canyon wall. They collapsed in exhaustion, trying to catch their breath.
Turning around, Bridgette saw that Oogie's manor was glowing. It shined brightly for a few minutes, then the light faded. The manor, the bridge, the whole giant tree had disappeared in that bright light.
"Whoa!" Cody gasped. "That was a close one." Suddenly a large light appeared on the ground where the manor had been just a moment ago.
"What is that light?" asked a curious Jack. Once the light dimmed a bit, Noah could make out what this large, bright shape was.
"It's the keyhole for this world." he informed the skeleton.
Cody's eyes widened. He had never seen a keyhole this large before. It had to be the size of a small yacht. Eventually, he snapped out of it and summoned his keyblade. He realized that he couldn't point his weapon at something this big, so he pointed it into the air.
Bridgette and the others watched as the keyblade's tip glowed, and shot out a beam of light into the sky. Once the light was directly above the keyhole, it broke apart and fell onto the large keyhole. The familiar locking sound was heard. The keyhole glowed brightly one last time, and then disappeared a moment later. The keyhole had been sealed.
Cody made his weapon disappear. He was about to turn and smile at his friends, but suddenly, he felt something hard slam into his stomach. Out of nowhere, someone had appeared and punched the keyblade master hard. He went flying backward toward Jack and his guardians, who looked shocked at what had just happened.
"Cody!" shouted a scared Bridgette. Running toward Cody, who was on all four, holding his aching mid-section. "Are you alright?!"
Cody nodded. Then he heard an angry voice. "You just don't know when to quit, do you?"
He got to his knees and looked up. His eyes widened when he saw Gwen standing there, glaring at them all. Jack, Noah and Lindsay rushed over to the injured Cody and then gazed at the goth girl.
"Gwen." he grunted painfully.
"Apparently Duncan's warning didn't scare you off like he thought it would." she said irritably as she continued to stare at Cody. "That's a shame."
Bridgette couldn't believe what she was hearing. She knew that Gwen was with Maleficent now, she knew that there had to be a reason why, but it sounded like she was defending what Duncan did to Cody at Disney Castle? How could she do that? Why was she acting so cold. Her blood was starting to boil.
"What are you doing, Gwen?!" Bridgette yelled angrily, kneeling down next to Cody. "Why are you doing this?!"
"I have a question of my own. Why are you all still interfering?!" she shouted furiously. "Why do you keep trying to stop us? Don't you want our world back?"
Cody had gotten back to his feet. He stared at the goth girl as something from his memory came back to him. He heard that same question before, inside Monstro, from Bridgette's ex. Gwen was trying to restore their world as well. Was that why she was with Maleficent?
"Of course we do." Cody grunted out an answer. "Why do you think we've been travelling to all of these worlds?"
"Why would you side with someone like Maleficent?" Noah growled.
Gwen merely raised an eyebrow. "I don't think that's any of your business, No-It-All." she spat harshly.
Bridgette glared at her former friend. "Someone's been spending too much time with Duncan it seems."
"Whatever." the goth girl scoffed. "All you need to know is that Maleficent is helping me get our home back." she glared back at Cody. "I'd of thought if you were so keen on that like you claim, than you wouldn't keep stopping us at every moment."
Cody felt himself go cold. He couldn't believe that someone as smart as Gwen would believe someone as untrustworthy and evil as Maleficent. "You can't mean that, Gwen... You don't honestly believe she'd help us do you?" When his former crush didn't respond, his temper riled up. "Even after she sent the Heartless to destroy our world?!"
Gwen didn't answer. Instead, she extended her hand forward. A ball of darkness formed within her palm, then she squeezed it. To Cody's utter shock, a large scythe had appeared in Gwen's hand. The pole was as tall as her, and the curved blade was red. She twirled her weapon for a few seconds before pointing it Cody's team. She faced her former friends, ready for a fight.
"I'm done talking." muttered Gwen with finality.
"Gwen... don't do this." Cody pleaded, summoning his keyblade while his friends summoned their weapons as well.
Gwen ignored Cody and dashed over to them with her weapon held high. Cody brought his weapon up and blocked Gwen's attack. She followed up with a kick to Noah's face, and kneeing Cody in the stomach again. Jack tried to kick the goth girl, but she just grabbed his foot and tossed him away.
Bridgette angrily charged at her former friend, Gwen dodged her attack however, and slashed her scythe that cut Bridgette's mid-section. Blood poured from the wound, but Lindsay used Cure to heal the surfer girl's wound completely. The goth girl sped over and slapped Lindsay hard to the ground, and punched Bridgette about thirty feet away from her.
"Lindsay! Bridgette!" panicked Cody. Now feeling angry, he dashed over and attacked an unsuspecting Gwen with his keyblade. Gwen swung her scythe, but Cody dodged by rolling out of the way. He followed up with another swing, that the goth was able to block. They swung their weapons against each others, fast and furious, neither of them could get the upper hand however.
Gwen then brought her weapon back, and swung it hard as a red blast shot out from the blade. Cody dodge rolled out of the way again, but Gwen cut him across the shoulder as he got back to his feet. She was about to land another blow, when seven spheres of water hit her. Bridgette joined Cody as Gwen charged at the two.
A powerful bolt of lightning stopped her however. Noah had gotten back to his feet and joined the others as Jack kicked Gwen away. The goth girl back flipped and regained her footing. She fired a scythe blast at them again. The attack was so fast, that Cody's group felt sure that they couldn't avoid it. Until Lindsay dashed over and used Reflera to ricochet the attack back toward Gwen, who jumped high into the air to avoid it.
Lindsay healed her friends injuries as Cody sped quickly over to Gwen's location and begun attacking her again. Bridgette helped out with some Aquaspheres, while Noah and Jack used blizzard spells.
Gwen couldn't believe that she was getting beat. "What the hell?! I thought I was stronger than this?!" she screamed in her head. She swung her scythe to get Cody and Bridgette to back off, then she jumped back, away from them. She then fell to her knees, obviously wiped, and made her scythe disappear. Cody and his guardians lost their weapons also, panting and gazing hard at their friend.
"Don't you understand?" Gwen cried aloud, trying to catch her breath. "That's why I've been helping Maleficent. She promised to restore our world if me, Duncan and the others can gather the princesses of heart. We're so close, we only need to find one more. But you all keep stopping us!" she finally screamed in fury.
Jack just stood in confusion as his friends listened to this girl's explanation. Apparently they all knew each other. Gwen continued talking, but her tone had softened a bit.
"I'm trying my best to make it so we can all go home. Don't you all want that?" she turned to the surfer girl. "Geoff told me, when he saw you inside that whale, that you've been going from world to world looking for all of us. I could care less about that though. I doubt you actually cared enough about me to search all those worlds for me!"
Cody looked at his former crush, too shocked to speak. "Why would you think that?" asked Lindsay.
"Because you all abandoned me during Total Drama Action!" Gwen screamed in fury. "I lost almost all of the friends I made during the show! I'll admit it, I messed up big with Trent! I should've tried to work things out with him after he went so crazy trying to help me win challenges before I broke up with him, but I didn't know the real reasons behind his actions! I thought I had done the right thing at the time! I figured I'd of gotten some sympathy from the other contestants! But no! You all turned your back on me! The only people still talking to me during that whole time were Duncan, DJ and Leshawna."
Gwen now had tears pouring down her face. "How could you all do that? Especially you, Bridgette." she continued as she glared at the surfer girl. "After I final woke up, I made a promise to myself. So now, I just want to bring our world back so I can go home, back to my family. So I can cut ties with everything and everyone connected to that awful show! Because apart from Duncan, no one else matters to me anymore!"
Bridgette looked at her former friend, unsure of what to say. Cody however, had plenty to say.
"Shut up!" he screamed furiously. Everyone turned to him, scared at how vicious he sounded. Even Gwen was shocked at his tone. Cody continued in a dangerously low voice. "Do you seriously think that Duncan was the only one on you're side? That Leshawna and DJ were the only ones talkng to you? Did you forget that I tried to make you feel better too?! Or does a scrawny little loser like me not count to a top tier competitor like yourself?!"
Gwen watched in disbelief as the boy who used to love her, went off on her. "How dare you! What you did to Trent was horrible. So horrible, that I can understand now why no one wanted to talk to you anymore! But before, I tried, I tried to make you feel better, but you just shrugged off my sympathy so you could try getting the more popular contestants back in your good graces! HOW DO YOU THINK THAT MADE ME FEEL?!" Cody shouted venomously, tears now pouring down his face.
"I helped you hook up with Trent! I thought we had become friends after that? I didn't pursue you after that because I knew how much you loved Trent. But I thought we might still be cool. I admit, after you broke up with him, I was a bit happy. I thought I could try again. But now... you've completely changed! You're not the same awesome girl that you were before! If you're so cold as to say a punk like Duncan is the only one of us that matters to you now... Then I can't believe that I was ever in love with you!"
Gwen's lip quivered. She had never heard Cody shout like this before. She honestly thought that he was too soft. But much less than his meltdown, she realized that he was right. She was too focused on trying to get people like Bridgette, Geoff and Trent to talk to her again, that she had completely ignored Cody. They had been friends, but she just tossed him aside for the more likable contestants. The sins of the show, her love for Duncan, had changed her in the worst possible way.
Struggling to keep her tears back, and unable to look at Cody in the face anymore, she made a portal appear and disappeared into it.
Bridgette stared in awe at the tech geek. She had never seen that side of him before. Noah, Lindsay and Jack also stared at Cody. The keyblade master turned back to his friends. The tears burst forth from him at last as he fell to his knees and cried.
Bridgette went over to Cody and kneeled down in front of him. She held his cheek, which caused him to look at her. "Are you gonna be okay?" she whispered.
"Yeah." choked Cody, tears still falling down his face. "I just... really needed to get that out."
Bridgette nodded. Then, like he had done for her when she felt miserable about Geoff, she wrapped her arms around him, letting him cry into her shoulder. Noah and Lindsay came over and joined in on the hug, while Jack put a hand on Cody's shoulder, all of them trying to comfort their friend as best they could.
Halloween Town - Research Lab
Some time had passed since the fight with Gwen. Everybody was now gathered back at Dr. Finkelstein's laboratory. Even Lock, Shock and Barrel were there. Cody, now feeling a little better, watched as Jack spoke to Sally.
"Sally, why didn't I listen to you?" he hung his head sadly.
"Don't feel bad, Jack." replied the human doll, holding the skeletons bony hands. "We'll come up with another plan for Halloween." she looked up into his face. "Next time, we'll do it together."
Jack nodded, then he turned to Cody, Bridgette, Lindsay and Noah. "Well, we have no choice. It looks like we're gonna have to cancel our Heartless Halloween plans."
"Oh no. That really sucks." replied Noah sarcastically, making Cody chuckle. Noah smiled as he was able to cheer his friend up a bit.
"Well, we'll let you get back to thinking of something for Halloween." Bridgette told Jack. "We need to get going now."
"Visit us any time!" stated Jack as Sally joined him. "Next year's Halloween will be the scariest one ever! You should come and see it if you're able to."
"Maybe we'll take you up on that." responded Cody, extending his hand. Jack happily accepted it and shook it. "Take care everybody."
"You three be good now!" Lindsay told the three trick or treaters.
"We sure will." replied Shock. They all laughed mischievously as they had their fingers crossed behind their backs.
"Goodbye Cody, Bridgette, Noah, Lindsay." said Sally. "It was nice meeting you."
"Take care friends!" exclaimed Jack. "I hope you feel better Cody."
Cody waved back, then he followed his friends out of the lab.
"Emotion, memory..." Dr. Finkelstein said aloud after the teens left. "We put in all the necessary ingredients. What else do you need to make a heart? What is a heart, anyway? I can't figure it out."
At a dark castle in another world, an evil sorceress watched a hologram of Cody with great interest. Standing next to her was a teenaged girl with long, black hair and an asian complexion.
"Wow, Weird Goth Girl didn't do too well." laughed Heather. "But I have to admit, she was more fun to watch then that useless bag of bugs! No offense, Maleficent."
"None taken." replied Maleficent calmly. "Oogie was the weakest of us. Perhaps it's for the best that he has been dispossed of."
Maleficent turned around as a dark portal appeared and Gwen stepped out. Heather smirked at her rather beaten up appearence.
"Looks like you really got you're butt handed to you, huh Gweny?" taunted the queen bee.
"Shut up Heather! I am so not in the mood!" snapped Gwen. Heather just continued to snicker.
"You performed admirably Gwen." Maleficent informed. "But, it appears as if that boy and his friends are getting stronger. We cannot take them lightly anymore."
"I didn't take them lightly!" shouted Gwen angrily. Maleficent smiled evilly in response. The sorceress heard the door open. She turned around as something entered the chamber.
The something walked on four legs. As it stepped out from the shadows, it's appearence was revealed as that of a large lion, with auburn fur and a black mane. This lion also had a scar over it's left eye.
"Well, it appears that we've lost another ally." said Scar, smiling menacingly. "What now, Maleficent?"
""What now?"" repeated Maleficent. "I'll tell you what now. We must continue our search for the last princess of heart. Also, the keyblade's chosen one must be dealt with, and soon." Maleficent turned back to her hologram of Cody. Gwen and Heather gazed down at it as well, Gwen somewhat regretfully.
Wow, what a moment between Gwen and Cody huh? Seriously, I hope I did okay with that. And I apologize to anyone who wanted to see the fight against Giant Oogie, I was never really a fan of that battle. I hope a fight against Gwen made up for it, though. I really hope I did well with her explanation and Cody's meltdown.
And finally! The identity of the seventh Disney villain I mentioned all the way back in Chapter 5 has been revealed at last. I think you guys can now pretty much guess what the second world from KH2 I'm using is. hahaha.
Let me know how I did. And I hope everyone enjoyed the Halloween Town saga. See you all soon!
