Chapter 51: Treasure of Friendship
Jin and Aqua leave Fiore and return to Lanes Between and continue their journey and they later find a world that has an island with a skull rock and so they decide to enter that world next.
At an Indian camp two boys with one wearing a fox costume while the other is wearing a bear costume are running and they find a treasure map on the ground.
"Over there!" The bear costume boy said.
"I'm gonna be the leader!" The fox costume boy said as they run for the map but then someone picks up the map and it's Aqua and with her is Jin. "Aw, we were so close." The fox costume boy said.
"Too bad, men. Tough break." A voice said and they see another boy with reddish-brown hair and wearing a green tunic and hat with a red feather flying down.
"But, Peter Pan." The fox costume boy said.
"No buts! You know the rules. The first one to find and claim the treasure map gets to be the leader and that's you." Peter Pan said.
"Leader?" Aqua asked confused.
"Of the expedition." Slightly said.
"Uhh, we're goin' on a treasure hunt and that's our map you got." Cubby said.
Just then a tiny fairy flies to Peter Pan and is furious.
"Whaddya mean? I never said girls can't be part of the gang. C'mon, Tink. The more the merrier." Peter Pan said.
"This is stupid. We don't have time for games. We have IMPORTANT matters to attend to." Jin said taking the map from Aqua. "Take your stupid map and get lost." Jin said.
"Too bad, but rules are rules. I guess we'll just have to call off the treasure hunt." Peter Pan said.
"No!" Slightly and Cubby said sadly.
"Jin, why don't we just join them for a while? It can't hurt." Aqua said and Jin sighs annoyed.
"Fine. You win. We'll join your stupid expedition. Just THIS once!" Jin said.
"Yay!" Slightly and Cubby cheered.
Aqua opens the map and examines it.
"As far as we know, we're here." Aqua said.
"That mark here is where we'll find the that treasure." Jin said.
"Enough pointin'! C'mon, let's go." Slightly said.
"Be patient!" Jin said.
"Hold on. We don't even know our leader's name. I'm Peter Pan. These two are Slightly and Cubby. The jealous one over there is Tinkerbell. And you two are?" Peter Pan asked.
"Aqua." Aqua introduced.
"Jin." Jin introduced.
"So, you're Aqua and Jin. Now, first stop, Mermaid Lagoon." Peter Pan said.
(World of Neverland)
(Field Theme: Daydream Upon Neverland)
(Indian Camp)
Jin and Aqua make their way through the Indian camp and later go for the next area.
(Gully)
Jin and Aqua arrive at a gully and continue on their expedition and they follow the map taking them to the next area.
(Jungle Clearing)
Jin and Aqua arrive at a jungle with a tree trunk in the center but then many Daraz and Unversed appear but Jin and Aqua quickly defeat them and keep going and they later go for the next area.
(Mermaid Lagoon)
Jin and Aqua later arrive at a lagoon area known as Mermaid Lagoon and they continue on their expedition.
"I finally have you now, Peter Pan!" A voice called and they look up to see a man with black hair, wearing a red pirate coat, red pirate hat with a feather, black boots, and having a left hook hand. "Today's the day I shall be rid of you forever!" The pirate said.
"I'm busy right now, Hook! We're on an expedition! Can't I show you up some other day?" Peter Pan asked.
"You'll show me up right NOW! Give me back me treasure!" Hook yelled.
"Who's that?" Aqua asked.
"Aw, that's just Captain Hook. He's a two-bit pirate codfish." Peter Pan said.
"I'll cleave YOU into two-bits, boy! Smee!" Hook called.
On a pirate ship a man with a white beard, wearing glasses, a blue and white shirt, blue shorts, and a red hat sees Hooks signal.
"Oh, that was the Captain's signal. FIRE!" Smee ordered as the ship starts firing cannonballs at the group but they miss.
"We're sitting ducks out here!" Aqua said.
"This is getting annoying! Run!" Jin said.
(Battle Theme: Neverland Scherzo)
Jin and Aqua make their way through Mermaid Lagoon while dodging more cannonballs being fired but then they run into Daraz and Unversed and they attack but Jin and Aqua fight them off and keep going and they later go for the next area.
(Seacoast)
Jin and Aqua arrive at a seacoast but more cannonballs are being fired while more Daraz and Unversed appear and attack at them but Jin and Aqua fight off the Daraz and the Unversed while dodging cannonballs and they find a road nearby and they take it leading them to the next area.
(Rainbow Falls Base)
Jin and Aqua manage to avoid the cannonballs and arrive at a falls area where they find a rather tall cliff.
"What's wrong now?" Jin asked.
"The mark on the map points all the way up here." Cubby said.
"Aww, relax. A little bit of pixie dust and we'll be there in a jiffy." Peter Pan said.
"But we've never had to fly that high up before." Cubby said.
"Hey, when did you two turn into cowards?" Peter Pan asked.
"Don't you think you might be asking too much for them?" Aqua asked.
"This between me and them, Aqua." Peter Pan said and he turns to the two. "Men, only the bravest of the brave can claim that treasure." Peter Pan said.
"Yeah, we know…" Slightly said.
"Tink, if ya would." Peter Pan said but the fairy crosses her arms. "We haven't got all day." Peter Pan said and Tinkerbell flies up the cliff while leaving behind pixie dust. "Here we go!" Peter Pan said as he flies up for the cliff and Slightly and Cubby fly up with him.
"Let's go." Jin said.
Jin and Aqua use Tinkerbell's magic to reach the higher part of the cliff and they later arrive at the next area.
(Rainbow Falls Ascend)
Jin and Aqua arrive at the ascending area of the falls and continue to use Tinkerbell's magic to help them reach the upper part of the falls and they later go for the next part of the falls.
(Rainbow Falls Crest)
Jin and Aqua arrive at the crest area of the falls and keep going but then Crocodile Daraz and Wild Bruiser Unversed appear and attack but Jin and Aqua quickly defeat them and keep going through and later arrive at the next part of the base of the falls and they later return to the gully area.
"Wait, aren't we back where we started?" Aqua asked.
"You mean we went all around Neverland for nuttin'?" Slightly asked.
"This has been a complete waste of our time." Jin said.
"Well, I wouldn't say that. You guys certainly conquered a lot of obstacles to get here, didn't you? And to me, that's not nothing." Peter Pan said.
"All this time, I thought you were being hard on them, but you were just trying to make them brave." Aqua said.
"You're showing them the path of discipline and that's the mark of a true leader." Jin said.
"Heh. Guess so. You guys know a lot about that, huh?" Peter Pan said.
"You're too late, Pan!" A voice called and they look to see Hook and Smee with a treasure chest.
"Not this idiot again." Jin said.
"Hook!" Peter Pan said.
"I'll be takin' back what's mine now. Smee, secure me treasure." Hook ordered and Smee opens the chest but becomes shocked to see something. "What is it now?" Hook asked annoyed.
"Um, C-Cap'n, it's the treasure. I-It's been…" Smee stops talking.
"Spit it out, you idiot!" Hook yelled turning to Smee and he later finds the treasure chest to be full of wooden toy swords and wooden toy bows. "Odd's fish! It's all JUNK!" Hook said.
"Whaddya mean junk? Those are OUR treasures, Hook!" Peter Pan said.
"But what did you do with MY treasure?!" Hook demanded.
"Oh, we losted it all." Cubby answered.
"You WHAT?! You scurvy brats have crossed me for the LAST TIME!" Hook shouted taking out his rapier.
"Screw this." Jin said summons two clones and sends them to strike at Hook and then the real Jin delivers a slamming strike sending Hook down.
"You…! I'll make you PAY for this!" Hook yelled.
"Get lost before I kick your ass!" Jin said.
"You'll wish you haven't crossed me!" Hook yelled but just then a ticking sound occurs. "Hmm, that sound…!" Hook said looking around and then sees a green crocodile. "Not you again! Leave me alone! Smee, do something! Smee!" Hook cried as he runs off.
"Wait, Cap'n!" Smee said running after Hook.
"Hmph. What a coward." Jin said and Aqua, Peter Pan, Slightly, and Cubby all laugh.
Later they examine the treasure chest and just then Jin and qua take notice of a wooden key sword and it's Ven's wooden Keyblade.
"Is this…?" Aqua stops talking.
"That's Ven's!" Jin said.
"Oh, yeah, Ventus and Astra left that here. I guess it's a special keepsake or somethin', but don't worry about 'em. They said they'll be alright without it and then promised to visit us again with even better treasures. Maybe enough to fill a hundred treasure chests." Peter Pan said.
"Ven…he was here…" Aqua said.
"So was Astra…" Jin said but then senses something is wrong and looks at another direction. "And someone else." Jin said in a monotone voice and Aqua also looks at Jin's direction and they look toward the Indian camp.
"What's the matter?" Cubby asked.
"It's nothing. You three stay here. Aqua, come on." Jin said and Aqua nods.
Jin and Aqua make their way for the Indian camp and they arrive and rush through the camp while searching for anything.
"So, having a good time hangin' out with the kiddies?" A voice asked and they turn to see two figures and they're Malicia and Vanitas who is holding Ven's wooden Keyblade.
"I didn't expect you two would enjoy such stupid kid games. You two have such soft spots for children." Malicia said in her dark and gloomy voice.
"You two again!" Jin said with hostility while Ignis makes a hatred sound and Aqua sees Vanitas holding the wooden Keyblade.
"How'd you get that?" Aqua asked.
"I think that kid's outgrown such a childish toy, if you ask my opinion." Vanitas said breaking the wooden Keyblade in two making the two masters shocked and then Vanitas tosses it aside. "Just like I've outgrown my need for you." Vanitas said taking out Void Gear.
"Let's play our own game. I call it 'Death of Two Masters'." Malicia said summoning Condemnation Venom.
"You assholes!" Jin yelled as he summons Phoenix Honor while Aqua summons Rainfell and they prepare to fight the two dark Keybearers.

The two are exhausted from their fight and they breathe heavily while kneeling to the ground.
"Assholes…you're finished…" Jin said.
"Well done, followers of light. I did not expect you to defeat Malicia and Vanitas so easily." A demonic voice said and Jin turns to see Demiz appearing from the shadows.
"You…again…!" Jin said.
"Not…now…!" Aqua said.
"Yes, now! You have weakened yourselves while fighting those two and now I will use that advantage to finish you." Demiz said.
"You wish…bastard! I'll kill you!" Jin said.
"Fool!" Demiz yelled as he throws a crimson and black fireball.
"Jin!" Aqua yelled as she gets in front and takes the crimson and black fireball and is now unconscious.
"Aqua!" Jin cried.
"Whata a silly Keyblade Master. Taking my attack to save you. What a kind but foolish gesture." Demiz said.
"Shut the hell up! I will KILL YOU!" Jin shouted.
"You have weakened yourself, and still you wish to fight? Very well. Let us begin." Demiz said.

Demiz kneels to the ground and sees Jin breathing more heavily and is sweating making Demiz give a sinister look from his crimson four eyes.
"You continue to fight, but fail to realize that the battle is far from over. Your end will come soon enough and my master will be there when you die. I shall make sure of that." Demiz said as he falls to the ground and then sinks into the shadows while taking Malicia and Vanitas with him.
Jin starts to sway back and forth as he's now tired from the battles and he struggles to stay on his feet but kneels to the ground as his hands catch the ground while falling.
"We've…done…it… They're…finished…" Jin said as he tries to get back up but kneels again and falls to the ground. "Astra…Draco…Terra…Ven…we can rest easy…" Jin said as he looks toward the ocean and sees the reflection of the sunlight and then falls to the ground unconscious next to Aqua.
Flashback:
"You're too young to know now." Terra said.
"Quit treating me like a kid!" Ven said and Aqua giggles.
"Hey, what're you laughing at?" Terra asked.
"I can't help it. You two would make the weirdest brothers." Aqua said and all three laugh.
Flashback End.
Flashback:
"Why do you always have to act like an asshole to me?!" Draco demanded.
"Shut up, moron." Jin said.
"You two just make the weirdest brothers." Astra said giggling.
"What?" Draco and Jin asked and they glare at each other before looking away from each other.
"You just proved my point." Astra said.
Flashback End.
"Aqua! Jin!" A voice called and the two slowly open their eyes and they see Peter Pan. "You two okay?" Peter Pan asked.
"We're fine." Jin said and they see the now broken wooden Keyblade.
"Oh, no! Look at Ven's treasure!" Peter Pan said.
"It's okay, Peter. Whatever it is that binds us together isn't going to break so easily." Aqua said.
"And that's OUR real treasure." Jin said.
"I think Ven knew that. That's why he left if behind." Aqua said.
"Same for Astra." Jin said.
"You guys must be really close. That's somethin' special. You guys, Ven, Astra, and…Draco and Terra, right?" Peter Pan asked.
"That's right." Jin said.
"One day, you should all come back." Peter Pan said.
"I'd like that." Aqua said.
"Same here, I guess." Jin said and he looks toward the ocean. "Maybe someday, Virtus would like to come here as well. Once he becomes a Keyblade Master. I have faith in him and so does Draco." Jin said and they decide to leave Neverland.
