He Who Wields the Key
If reaching Agrabah was hard, getting in was even worse. The city now festered with Heartless as far as the eye could see. Patrols of them walking through the main streets and bazaars, most of the people had vanished, many probably hiding inside. Jasmine looked in horror at the site of her beloved city and all the chaos brought upon it by the 'usurper Jafar.
"This is horrible," Jasmine said as Aladdin led them town the secret passage ways that he had used as a thief.
Genie popped an eye out from his lamp, "Yeah this place has gone full on 1984 on everyone, I'm just waiting for someone to smash the giant screen."
"Not like life here was ever that great," Aladdin muttered as he lifted a wood plan.
"Probably better than it was now," Sora muttered,
As they rode through the town, they saw Abis Mal arrive along with a gathering of Heartless shouting to his lungs to get everyone attention.
"Okay listen up everyone," He shouted gaining the crowd's attention, "We have a new public enemy number one...Sora! The Keyblade Master, Jafar desire's his head, and more importantly his Key, if you find him the reward will be extraordinary. So says Jafar!"
"Uh oh," Sora muttered.
Aladdin sighed, "Don't worry, I know this city like the back of my hand, will get you outta here".
Sora just grimaced at the sight of this, it was bad enough when he thought that the Heartless were mindless creatures used to collect hearts, but if they could be used for more sophisticated purposes like to spread fear and bring terror to a city, that just made them even more dangerous.
Jafar must have been quite a powerful sorcerer indeed to have such control of these beings of darkness.
Sora wondered if he was in league with Maleficent in any capacity. If this was the case then he was glad he did come to Agrabah, if this was connected to his mission then he needed to find out how and quickly.
"Doubt it, those things could pop in at any time...again like the old guards-"
"Will discuss guard behavior after we take back the Kingdom from the Heartless." Jasmine groaned.
"Hey I got a list of thing that could change." Aladdin muttered. "Such as the holes in the wall, the dirty streets, poverty, sickness, the fact the palace never is open."
Aladdin kept listing off a list of problems as they continued to sink through the neighborhoods, making sure no one was watching as they moved forward into the city. Each problem annoying Jasmine more than the other. She expressed a fact that showed off both anger, annoyance and guilt. Perhaps being princess she felt responsible for all the problems she found during her time in the city.
"Oh and the water definitely use some cleaning." Aladdin kept going. "I mean dirty water, not the best for one's personal hygiene and…..
"Okay I get it." Jasmine finally snapped causing Aladdin to look taken aback.
She sighed calming down again.
"I get it, Agrabah has a lot of problems, problem that have been around since even my father and probably his father, and his father before him, I don't know how long. But if we can overthrow Jafar, maybe-maybe will be able to fix things. But that won't happen unless we work together and try to take down Jafar first."
"Well, I hope your right." Aladdin sighed. "Your gonna have to change a lot of stuff, I've been through the city to know pretty much every problem it has."
"So you've told me." Jasmine replied. "Multiple times."
Aladdin sighed. "Sorry, sorry, just trying to keep the mood up, moral going. I know your going through some stressful times right now. I'm sure right now your worried about your father"
"I am-" Jasmine sighed. "But I know there are a lot of problems with this city, I mean look us were standing the middle of a run down street, mud's everywhere and most of the building have holes in them."
"So basically it's a dump." Riku muttered.
"I wouldn't put it like that but it definitely could use an improvement."
Finally they made it to Aladdin's hobble home.
All of them took a moment to breath and relax, each taking checks outside to see if the Heartless were approaching or not. Although they could have a few patrolling the skies and the streets, thankfully they managed to avoid this part of the city, at least for now. Riku stood by the door keeping a eye out while Jasmine constantly looked out one of the holes like a window gazing at the palace. In the corner Donald and Goofy were conversing with one another about something, and as for Sora he paced back and forth looking nervous.
"Hey what's up?" Sora jumped to see Aladdin standing right behind him. "You seem tense."
"Me tense nah!" Sora lied his forehead sweating a bit.
Aladdin raised an eyebrow looking unsure. "It's okay to be a bit scared Sora, we all are, Agrabah is going through a bit of a rough patch...well rougher than usual."
Finally once the group was well rested they all gathered together as they began to plan just how they would finally get to the palace and maybe be able to take down Jafar once and for all. All sorts of plans and ideas came through, civil war, rebellion, uprising, full on attack, yet everything seemed to be coming up short, and all of them would require Sora to do things he had no idea what to do.
"How are we gonna get in there now?" Donald asked.
Goofy agreed. "Yeah, with all those Heartless around." Jasmine paced back and forth as she thought up a plan.
"We need a distraction against those things." Jasmine said as she paced across the room.
"Yeah...Sadly, that won't happen so long as they are after me." Sora sighed.
"What about you Sora?" Jasmine asked. "You are the Keyblade Master, I'm sure you are probably a big enough distraction to help out."
"Me?" Sora grimace. "I-I-See that's the thing those are a lot of Heartless and….
"I think Jasmine has a point," Aladdin interjected.
"What!" Sora, Riku, Donald and Goofy all said in unison.
Aladdin nodded, "Jafar is clearly after you, let's give him what he wants".
"You got ta be kidding," Riku muttered looking annoyed, "That's got to be the stupidest plan ever, just put Sora in outright harm".
"But what if it isn't Sora," Aladdin winked.
Sora just looked confused.
"Have Genie disguise me as Sora, and I can take him on for you, put on a big performance, play to Jafar's ego. He'll have all the Heartless on me, that'll he won't be able to tell that we've taken the Sultan and set him free"
Jasmine frowned, "You'd do that Aladdin, that seems risky if not foolish"
"Hey, it's what we have to do" Aladdin said looking determined, "Beside's what's the harm of being a Keyblade Master for a day. I'll have Genie make me one of Keyblade's chosen, that way the Heartless will focus on me, while the rest go rescue the Sultan. Heck maybe I'll even be a Keyblade Prince"
It was then the Genie intervened seeming quite dumbfounded by the whole idea. "Eh...Hold on Al! Making a Keyblade from my magic is nigh impossible, that's one of the most ancient of ancient weapons which takes years of crafting and workmanship!"
Aladdin frowned, he thought for sure it would work. "But, making a fake blade and giving me and the trappings of one could at least allow Jafar to think I'm one, heck maybe I'll be a Keyblade Master Prince!."
"Oh nice thinking slick." Genie snickered. "The ultimate con, I like it."
"I suppose that could work." Jasmine said thinking. "But what would we do when get to the palace."
"We'd free the Sultan." Aladdin declared. "With him free we'd then have a better chance on getting the people of Agrabah on our side and overthrowing Jafar and the Heartless..
Sora bit his lip thinking about it as well. The idea could work, after all, he didn't know if this Jafar person knew who he was. In fact, now that he thought about it, did the Heartless even get a good look at him when they battled? All they wanted was the Keyblade, it wasn't really about him. It was nothing but the Key.
Taking a moment to think, he nodded when he made up his mind. "I guess it could work. But if anything happens, then I say we use Genie to get us out of here, okay?"
"But. wouldn't that mean Aladdin would be using his third wish?" Donald pointed out.
Genie gulped. "Oh good point, not doing well with my whole freedom thing."
Aladdin took a moment to think. "Well, I think then maybe...I'll let one of you or Jasmine make the wish I can't. Or, we just fight our way out."
"Well…." Genie bit his lip before smiling, "Hey, we gotta think of the big picture here and little old me ain't. I'm sure it will work out in the end!"
Aladdin beamed "So...Can you make a fake uh…."
"Keyblade Master." Sora corrected.
"Right...A royal one!"
Genie beamed and began to summon the full might of his magical abilities as it sparkled around the room. "Arlight kid, here we go let's make you a star!"
As Genie got things ready Sora stepped out for a moment to get a clear head. Everything was moving so fast that it was going to be hard to keep up. All he knew that these people needed his help, like many others who he met throughout his Travels of the worlds. The more he traveled the more he realized that it was his duty to help these people.
"Gonna make you proud of your boy mom".
-000-
"This is stupid." Riku muttered.
"It'll work," Aladdin sounding like Sora too, he sounded far more confident than the actual one, "Trust me, I've been through dozens of cons like this".
Aladdin, now disguised as Sora from head to toe, took a deep breath, while the real one hid under a cover of a now giant elephant Abu. Genie had gone all out with this disguise. Not only did Aladdin look like Sora perfectly, but he also added some metal armor on him, said it used to be belong to the ancient Keyblade Wielders of old.
"Think will be able to take on Jafar if we have too?" Donald asked hiding with Riku under the carpet.
Goofy popped his head. "Sure Donald, Sora is the Keyblade Master remember."
"Guys not now!" Sora muttered.
"Alright guys, we're ready" Aladdin said, adjusting the armor.
"Right!"
"Come on guys get ready" Genie muttered.
They were just at the gates of the palace now. Genie stepped forward in the city of the town square. No one seemed to take any notice of him, instead focusing on shopping at the local market or just keeping to themselves. Everything so gloomy that none of them would bother if a bit color would come up towards them.
Genie
Hail, your attention I crave
Oh ye people of Agrabah
This is your lucky day
Hail, high and low, great and small
Lucky people of Agrabah
Someone's coming to call
Take it away Babkak
Someone who tamed the Cyclops
Then fought forty thieves single hand
He's richer then Croesus
He goes where he pleases
And this time he's chosen your land
Chours
Make Way.
For it's the Key.
Make way...He's got that Key.
Make way!
Genie
Hey clear the way.
In the old bizzare
Hey you.
Let us a through
It's a bright new star a come
Be the first
On the block
To see his eye.
Make way
Here comes
Ring the bells
Bang the drum.
Are you gonna love this guy.
Genie
It is he.
Wielding the Key.
The Keyblade Masters
Genuflect, show some respect
Down on one knee!
Now, try your best to stay calm
Brush up your sunday salaam
The come and meet his spectacular coterie
It is he
Wielding the Key!
The Keyblade Master
Strong as ten regular men, definitely!
He faced the Heartless hordes
A hundred bad guys with swords
Who sent those goons to their lords?
Why, that mighty Key
"Hey it's working...Look." Sora pointed to the Heartless all of them standing at the parade looking confused.
They were closing into the palace now, Sora start to get nervous, hoping that this stunt was going to work. He worried Aladdin might now be able to take on the Heartless, let alone Jafar. Although he never faced his powerful personally just seeing a bit of it made him nervous.
Looking up at Aladdin he seemed to be enjoying being the center of attention, smiling and winking at hte audience.
Sora just Riku look annoyed his eye kept twitching.
"Is he jealous," Sora thought aloud, "Nah...I'm sure he just thinks this plan is stupid"
They got seventy-five golden camels
Purple peacocks
They got fifty-three
When it comes to exotic-type mammals
Have they got a zoo?
I'm telling you, it's a world-class menagerie
It is they wielding that key the Keyblade Masters
That physique! How can I speak
Weak at the knee
Well, get on out in that square
Adjust your veil and prepare
To gawk and grovel and stare at Prince Ali!
He's got ninety-five white Persian monkeys
(He's got the monkeys, let's see the monkeys)
And to view them he charges no fee
(He's generous, so generous)
They got fans, he's got helpers and flunkies
(Proud to work for him)
They bow to his whim love serving them
They're just lousy with loyalty to the key. To That Key!
It is they, wielding the Key. Keyblade Masters
Heard you're Sultan was a sight lovely to see.
And that, good people, is why they got dolled up and dropped by
With sixty elephants, llamas galore
With their bears and lions
A brass band and more
With their forty fakirs, their cooks, his bakers
There birds that warble on key
Make way for that Key!
"ENOUGH!"
Suddenly, with a single slam on the ground, Jafar summoned all his magic pushing back the entire parade leaving only Aladdin standing. Quickly any bravado and bravery the young lad might have sad suddenly sapped from him as now he faced the sorcerer alone, along with the fierce army of Heartless he now had before him. From afar Sora watched wanting to jump in and fight, yet Riku held him back.
"I need to help him, I'm the real Keyblade Master, not him!" Sora yelled.
Riku shook his head. "He's doing his job so we can do ours, and remember Sora, you aren't really a master. Otherwise, your key would be in your hand right now."
Sora sighed, Riku was right of course. Quickly they began to follow Jasmine to find the Sultan, all the while hearing Jafar walk up to Aladdin with sinister glee in his voice.
"Well now, I didn't expect this. I knew of one Keyblade Master that walked these worlds, but I never imagine there were two of you. How we didn't find you is a mystery."
"Well I….Don't go out much." Aladdin said speaking in a deep voice. "B-But I here about to end your terrible reign and put a stop to you."
Jafar smirked and looked at him again. "Really? Well then, let's see you demonstrate the Key's immense power."
"What-Oh yeah...I mean I am a Keyblade Master, locking doors, fighting baddies, that's kinda in my job description." Aladdin as Sora held up the blade that Genie had made for him, hoping that something would happen. However, he found it difficult to do anything but just point it at him. "Ok, it'll do something."
"Indeed."
"Hold on-You know how Keyblade's are, mind of their own am I right?" Aladdin shrugged giving his best cheeky grin. Suddenly his Keyblade developed a pair of eyes and mouth, it was the Genie.
"Yep, we Keyblades sure do like to talk a lot." Genie said giving Aladdin a wink. "Wow, a actual Sultan's palace, you really should those consider redecorating though."
Jafar jaw dropped. "What?"
"I mean look at this place, it kinda lacks a certain, I don't know...You? Seems a bit generic. I mean you should have gone with a more snake motif maybe, I mean it seems like you're kinda thing. What do you think Al?"
Aladdin blinked before realizing what was going on. "Oh yeah, yeah-Totally, this place, it just doesn't scream-Jafar."
"What is he doing?" Riku hissed.
Jasmine eyes widened. "He's distracting him. Come on."
Sora watched from afar still holding off the urge to hold back. Yet, Genie continued to distract him just by talking a bunch about Jafar's lack of design tropes. Using this opportunity, Jasmine and the others headed to hourglass, Riku holding Sora's hand tightly to make sure he didn't get loss. Yet still Sora wished he could jump in and help in some way.
With Aladdin distraction proving to be accurate enough to give, Jasmine, Sora, Riku, Donald and Goofy enough time to move out they saw the Sultan in a hourglass. He laid on the ground looking in the opposite direction, hunched over and weak.
Quickly Jasmien rushed to his side tapping the glass to get his attention.
"Father." Jasmine hissed as she rushed up to him.
Sora and the others followed suite quickly hurrying over to the old man as they gathered around him. There eye peeled incase the Heartless showed up
"Father...Father, it's me! Me, Jasmine!" She said her voice cracking as emotion over came her.
"Jasmine?" The Sultan said weakly blinking a few times to make sure he wasn't hallucinating."Jasmine, it really is you,?"
"Yes," Jasmine said holding a hand to the glass a few tears trickling down her cheek, "we need to get you out of their."
Sora turned to watch for a few minutes and smiled, seeing father and daughter reunited felt quite heartwarming to see. It reminded him as to why he was doing this in first place, reuniting those with the ones they loved, reuniting himself with the ones he loved. This was the small bit light in the sea of darkness that kept him going.
"Jasmine I can't believe you are safe." The Sultan said a wide smile coming from behind his white beard. "I-I thought Jafar would-"
"He tried." Jasmine interrupted. "But I didn't let him."
The Sultan chuckled. "I suppose I owe you a apology Jasmine, this is all my fault, if I hadn't trusted Jafar from the start and realized my faults as a Sultan I would have-
"It doesn't matter now father, me and Aladdin are going to get you out of here, we have Keyblade Master with us, he's going to help us free you and rid Agrabah of Jafar once and for all."
Sora flinched giving the Sultan a small wave.
The Sultan took one look at Sora examining him closely, as if trying to figure him out just by looking through the glass.
"Jasmine, I can't believe you found a Keyblade Master. I thought they were all destroyed."
"Father, I...Wait!" She looked shocked, looking at Aladdin as he fiddled with the Key. "How do you know about the Keyblade Master."
"It is an old secret kept by our family for generations. Though I was old enough to actually see one in person many years ago. Strange fellow too, white hair if I remember...But that's not important right now. What is important is that we use him to lock the Keyhole."
"The Keyhole." Sora said, eyes widening with shock.
"Yes, Jafar is looking for that as well as you."
"Yeah, well that's not going to help." Riku muttered.
The Sultan turned to look at him. "I'm sorry, who are you, young man?"
"I'm Riku. This is Sora, the ACTUAL Keyblade Master."
"Actual?" The Sultan looked at Sora curiously. "Him? He's just…"
"A kid, I know...I know!" Sora grunted the constant reminder of him being a child was starting to become irritating.
While Sora and the others continued to help the Sultan, Genie continued to chat up a storm. Suggesting all types of decorating tips and tricks to in his words improve upon his throne room with every waking minute Jafar rage continued to increase How on earth did this brat get a hand on a Keyblade let alone a Keyblade that could talk was beyond him.
"See Al I mean Sora- I see snake motif, with this guy." The Genie pointed out. "Seriously I worry more if it's less a style and more a fetish if you ask me."
Aladdin looked at the throne room and nodded. "Yeah I can see that I mean he looks like a snake has a snake staff, really would work."
Jafar juut continued to stand there until finally had enough.
"So you think you are impressive are you not, Keyblade Master-" He smirked darkly. "Then perhaps I could get a demonstration of your power."
Aladdin eyes widened in horror.
"Uh-yeah sure." He said laughing nervously. "Keyblade, show me your power."
Genie winked. "Of course, behold ladies and germs the great and powerful Keyblade in action.."
The tip of the Keyblade beamed a bright light that hit the wall and sparkled a bit as it hit the sealing. Iago and Jafar just watched with dull looks as Aladdin tried to look impressive, but only came off looking ridiculous.
"Really, that's the best you got." Iago grunted.
Aladdin chuckled nervously. "Yeah, see, the power of the Keyblade."
Jafar turned to Iago and snickered before looking back at Aladdin, his evil grin widening.
"Well that was impressive, but perhaps I can show you a trick of my own.
A small hiss and the eyes of Jafar's snake staff began to glow. Slowly he held out a hand and pointed it straight Aladdin and before he could counter in anyway he found himself being lifted in the air, his body completely stiff and unable to move, arms and legs outstretched. With every passing second the pain started to become intense.
"Oh this isn't good." Aladdin muttered looking at his Genie Keyblade. "A little help would be nice."
"I can't do anything Al unless you wish, and that's wish number three."
Aladdin grimaced as he saw Jafar raise his arm a bit higher now. "Uh oh."
Jafar clenched his fist stretching Aladdin now a bit further than his body could handle increases the pain tenfold.
"For a Keyblade master, you sure are quite unimpressive."
Aladdin grimaced as he clenched his teeth and tried to go through the pain, but if Sora could intervene now, it would be a great time.
"Uh fella's." Goofy tapped Sora's shoulder and pointed to Aladdin, now in Jafar's grasp.
The actual Sora gasped and tried to run up to him. "Oh no!"
Quickly Riku pulled him back before he could intervene.
"Sora don't, will get caught and this whole plan will be for nothing."
"Riku he's in trouble because of me we have to help him otherwise he's going to die!" Sora hissed angrily trying not to hell. "Just let me help him I can do it, at least get us to escape."
Riku was about to speak but gasped and stepped back "Look out!"
Turning around Sora saw a Heartless leap over him, his Keyblade appearing in tow. With a single swipe, he swung at the creature sending it back into the dark depths. Almost at once more Heartless began to emerge, blowing their cover instantly.
Jafar turned around causing Aladdin to drop to the ground as he saw Sora take down the Heartless his Keyblade now in hand.
"Oh this is not good?" Aladdin groaned as he slid against the wall."
Slowly Jafar turned around, his snake staffs eyes still glowing as he approached Sora and the others, a wicked grin widening on his face as he saw for the first time the true Keyblade Master. Just as he suspected he was nothing more than a mere child, frightened and scared, his power only came because the blade allowed it. He would be nothing compared to the might of Jafar and the powerful dark force that he commanded.
"I should have known." Jafar sneered, cackling madly, pointing his Keyblade at Aladdin a dark aura overcame him as he returned to normal. "Such a failure like you could not even bother to wield a key but this...This is far more pathetic than I could ever possibly imagine."
"Oh yeah-" Sora shouted trying to stand tall. "Well, sorry to disappoint but I think i'll show you!"
Jafar laughed. "Yes, I doubt that very much. But trying to pup a fake you, now that is low...So much for heroism of the Keyblade Masters"
Instantly, Sora found himself being raised up into the air and tossed aside towards landing right in front of the vizer.
Riku gasped and sneered. "You'll pay for that."
Jafar blasted him with his snake staff against the wall.
"Doubtful."
Now only Jasmine was left.
"Princess Jasmine." Jafar hissed looking upon Jasmine his with sinister gaze. "It is so nice for you to come directly to me now. I have some friends who are quite interested in meeting you."
"Well they'll be disappointed I'm taking back this Kingdom from you and those Heartless."
Jafar laughed. "Oh I seriously doubt that. You couldn't pull off this maddening of a plan how do you plan to stop me and the power of darkness which is now mine to command."
"I-"
Jasmine took a moment to think, yet she had no plan.
Jafar cackled again louder. "You have no plan, how precious thinking improvisation would have worked against an intellect like mine."
"I may not have a plan but I do have at least friends to stand by me and the Keyblade."
"Yes, wielded by a little boy who can't even hold it firm at times, yes, that is very encouraging." Jafar sneered as he began to hold up his staff, the eyes began to glow a deep shade of red.
Sora continued to float up in the air, he was slowly losing his ability to breath as he could feel his throat tighten a bit. Whatever magic Jafar was using was causing this. He tried to struggle kicking his legs as hard as possible yet he could not break free of his grip. Never in his entire life had he felt so helpless before, unable to do anything but pray that he would find a way out this mess. Perhaps another round of luck would come.
Jafar smirked as he saw Sora turn more into a helpless child.
"Now Princess, time for you to one with the darkness."
Aladdin drew out his own sword. "Never!"
Swiftly, Aladdin attempted to strike Jafar, but the vizier was to swift for him, moving away before the sword could make the plunge. It was enough though to break His hold over Sora who plopped to the ground. Quickly Sora got up taking a deep breath of air, able to regain his composure. His legs and arms hurt and he could feel his heart racing tenfold. He turned around and rushed to Riku side to help him back up, although he was still in pain he worried more for his friends than himself at this point.
"You okay?" He asked helping Riku get up.
Riku nodded. "I've had worse."
Several Heartless emerged and began to surround them.
With a harsh swing of his staff Jafar struck Aladdin back, Sora and Riku began to take on a swarm of Heartless yet found themselves overwhelmed by the ferocity of the beast.
"So, this is what the true Keyblade Master is made of? What a pity, I must say I hoped for better." Jafar said in a cackling voice.
Iago burst out laughing, "Man, this kid's a wimp."
"Again Princess Jasmine, you should have done better-honestly, did you think this would work." Aladdin tried to help out, but was again pushed back by the Heartless. "Pathetic, but even the allies of the Keyblade aren't truly worthy of it."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Sora asked.
"Simple, it means you are nothing more than just mere puppet, riddled in the strings of the Keyblade." Jafar explained. "A real Keyblade may not talk or speak it's mind, but from what i have learned its power is taken from some far more ancient and sentient than you will ever have imagined. One that no mere child will ever be able to manage."
Riku watched as if examining both of them stepping back into the shadow as if to watch. Sora wondered what he was doing but was too distracted by the choking and the madness that he was unable to put through a cohesive thought.
Iago laughed. "This is the kid we are so scared of, really!? This one, oh this is rich! Maleficent is going to have a field day with him!"
"Aladdin, we need to get ourselves out of here!" Jasmine yelled, his eyes darting to the lamp. "Use the last wish."
Without hesitation, Aladdin rubbed the lamp summoning the Genie. Jafar and the others turned towards him in shock. Sora was clenching his throat, his eyes looked like they were bulging out of his sockets . Genie had zoomed out of his lamp again after hiding shocked to see all the chaos around him.
"Woah, this is a mess!" Genie said. "I'm gone for a few minutes and everything falls to pieces."
Aladdin gulped. "Genie, I, uh…..
"Come on, get us out of here!" Riku yelled holding the Heartless back best he could.
Sora was starting to suffocate. "It's gonna be ok, if you can't, I'll do it."
Aladdin hesitated, his breathing starting to get the best of him. Something told him not to make the wish, yet the circumstances required that this wish be made.
"Come on, do it!" Riku yelled.
"Ok...Ok…" Aladdin yelled. "Genie...I wish…"
"To slow!"
Without warning, Iago swooped in taking the lamp from Aladdin's hand just before he could finish the wish. Everything suddenly went silent. Sora found himself plopping to the ground. Riku, Donald and Goofy coming over to make sure he was okay. Jasmine and the Sultan stood there in shock. Everyone was petrified as the parrot plopped the lamp in Jafar's hand, his bony fingers grasping it tightly as he looked upon it with a evil grin.
"Well now, how fascinating. A genie and here I thought your kind were nothing more than myth and legend. Perhaps that treacherous Seeker was correct after all." Jafar smirked as he looked upon the Genie. "Well then, I shall get to work at once. Genie, my first wish is to take me, Princess Jasmine and that white haired brat to the Keyhole. Let the Keyblade Master and his minions try to find us if they dare."
Genie took a deep sigh and swung his wrist.
"Riku!" Sora tried to grab him but it was too late he vanished in a speck of dust. Now Sora was once again alone, his friend gone, now it was just Donald and Goofy again. "Can things get any worse?"
Famous last words.
