Location / Date / Time Skip


Sora, Donald and Goofy arrived in the new world on their quest for Sora to unlock the Power of Waking. Donald's magic activated, changing their form to fit the world. Sora stumbled a bit on his webbed feet, having been turned into a frog. His hair was gone and his jacket remained as did his gloves.

Donald had been turned into a firefly, holding his wand in his legs and Goofy was now a leech with his shield on the back.

Another frog swam up into the log, shocking the three. "Oh, sorry. I didn't think anyone else was hiding here." The amphibian said, clearly a female by her tone.

"Hiding from what?" Goofy asked.

Snaps and splashes caught their attention as the four looked out a gaping hole in the stump. Alligators were jumping in and out of the water, trying to bite something.

"PSST!"

The four looked down and found another frog, hugging the bark. "Lower the vine."

"Find your own tree." The female declared loudly, letting the gators hear her. Sora moved to help, but the female stopped him.

They started swimming at him and he turned up. "All right, all right. Help me get out of this swamp, and once I marry Charlotte, I shall get you your restaurant." A gator opened its jaw just as the vine lowered, pulling him up into safety. "So, who are these three?"

"Oh, I'm Sora." The islander said before turning to his friends. "This is Donald and Goofy. So why would a frog need a restaurant?"

"Well, it's a long story." The female said. "Might as well start from the top. My name is Tiana."


The Next Morning

After spending the night in the log listening to the two tell their tale, Sora and the others woke up when an acorn hit the frog prince known as Naveen. "Rise and shine, sleeping beauty! Gators are gone." The four pulled themselves to the hole and saw Tiana standing on raft she made from old wood and vines.

"We need to get back to New Orleans and undo this mess the spoiled little rich boy got us into." She said, grabbing a stick to steer.

Naveen hopped onto the raft, followed by the other three. "Hey, I was not the one parading around in a phony-baloney tiara." He smugly replied before grabbing a web covered twig and started playing.

Tiana only sighed in annoyance before she started punting down the swamp. Sora walked to the other corner and did the same, while Naveen played louder. "How about a little less picking and a..." Tiana stopped and gasped as a gator's jaws opened up behind.

The two hugged in a panic as Sora and his friends prepared to fight. "I KNOW THAT TUNE!" The gator joyously shouted. "Dippermouth Blues!" The reptile suddenly pulled out a trumpet and started playing, confusing everyone before Naveen joined in. They jumped on joy and spun around on land.

"Where did you learn to play like that?" He asked.

"Why, the bayou's the best jazz school in the world." The gator declared, spinning his trumpet. "All the greats play the riverboats. Old Louis would give anything to be up there jamming with the big boys."

"So, why don't you?" Naveen asked, making Sora and friends facepalm at the obvious answer.

"Well, I did try once." Louis confessed. "It didn't end well."

"Look, it's been a real pleasure meeting you, Louis." Tiana said, finally stepping of the boat and dragging Naveen back on. "And thank you kindly for not eating us, but we best be on our way."

"Where- where y'all going?" The gator asked in disappointment.

"To find somebody to break this spell." She replied as the four resumed paddling.

"What spell?"

"Brace yourself, my scaly friend." Naveen answered as he stood up. "The two of us are not frogs, we are humans."

Louis burst out laughing and fell onto his back, dropping his trumpet. He pounded the ground before taking a deep breath. "Y'all serious?"

"I am Naveen, Prince of Maldonia." He declared before turning. "This is Sora, Donald, and Goofy. And this..." He motioned to the female 'frog' as the gator leaned in. "Is Tiana, the waitress. Do not kiss her..."

"Now just a second!" She shouted before pointing at him. "This goon here got himself turned into frog by a voodoo man, and now..."

"Voodoo?" Louis asked in fear, making the otherworlders stop paddling. "Like the kind Mama Odie do?"

"Mama Odie?" Sora repeated confused.

"She the voodoo queen of the bayou." The reptile explained. "She got magic and spells, all kind of hoodoo."

"Could you take us to here?" Both humans asked, making Louis gasp.

"Through the deepest, darkest parts of the bayou?" He asked. "Facing razor-sharp pricker bushes and monsters and trappers and hunters with guns!?... No."

He sat down agains a tree and started playing his trumpet. "Wait a minute." Naveen said to the group before walking over. "Louis, it is too bad we cannot help you with your dream. If only you were... smaller, less toothy. You could play jazz to adoring crowds without scaring them."

The music suddenly stopped as the gator went wide eyed. "Anyway, enjoy your loneliness my friend." He walked back to the group and counted down three on his hand before pointing behind him.

"HEY GUYS!" Louis was practically in their faces. "I just had me a crazy idea! What if I asked Mama Odie to turn ME human!?"

Naveen grabbed Tiana and hopped onto the gator's head. "Louis! You are a genius!"

"HALLELUJAH!" The alligator jumped into the water and started swimming down the swamp with the living cargo.


A butterfly landed on a black cloth before it was swatted. "Ugh, I hate this place." Larxene complained as the siblings stepped through a garden. "Why did we get this place? I'd rather be back in that frozen nightmare."

"Hey, I warned you not to follow Marluxa in that castle." He said, crushing a branch under his boot. "Consider this your penance."

"Oh, why don't you just be quiet?" She replied before they came out of the woods and watched a dark shadow stand over a changing man. The shadow belonged to a as being tall, skinny, mustached who dressed in very linear black-and-red clothing. The man had purple eyes and a thin mustache, as well as a gap between his front teeth. He his long, boney fingers, and lanky arms and legs.

Dressed in a top hat with a purple feather in it and a skull and crossbones on it. Around his neck, he wears a necklace with two crocodile teeth. He also wears a dark maroon undertaker tailcoat and black pants, white spats over black shoes, a purple vest under his tuxedo that doesn't entirely cover his midriff, and a red cummerbund.

He wields a cane with a purple globe on top, possibly a crystal ball. He reached down and grabbed a talisman as a red energy drained out of it, turning the changeling into a fat, bald white man. "NO!"

"What do we do now?" The large man asked.

"Because SOMEBODY let our froggy prince go, Larry." The witch doctor huffed, throwing the pendant into the face. "I'm reduced to asking for help from my friends on the other side." The two siblings turned to each other and even though she couldn't see it, Larxene knew her brother had the same smirk on his face.


Swamp

"So this restaurant, is it gonna have étouffée?" Louis asked as they floated down the river.

"Jambalaya, gumbo, the works." Tiana declared, making Louis lick his lips.

"Yummy!" Donald cheered.

"That sounds amazing, Tiana." Sora said. "Can't wait to try some of this."

"Crawfish?" Goofy asked.

"Battered, roasted, boiled. Anyway you want, Goofy." Tiana replied.

"No, crawfish." The group turned to see a swarm of something swimming towards them, confusing them all.

A school of crawdads jumped out of the water, steam rolling off the bright red bodies. Unversed emblem on their tails. Instead of eye stocks a pair of black sad marks were on their heads as the Unversed emblem was emblazoned on their tails. Louis panicked and stood up, launching the five around.

Naveen and Tiana were tossed into a tree as Sora, Donald and Goofy summoned their weapons. "More Unversed?" Donald asked before the creatures charged over the swamp water. One pulled its left pincer back and scalding water shot out, forcing the three to dodge. Goofy was the first up and slammed his shield down, cracking the shell.

Donald then waved his wand and ice shot off it. Another opened its right pincer and flames shot out, melting the spell. Sora hopped forward through the steam and slashed the creatures, his Keyblade destroying two of them. A third suddenly popped up and started swinging it's tail. The paddle like structure hit Sora before it bounced back.

Sora nipped up and used his Sonic Blade skill to rush and strike them all, launching them into the air. "Donald!"

"THUNDAGA!"

Lightning crashed from the sky and zapped them all before Goofy threw his shield discus style, whacking all the Unversed. Sora triggered his Shock Lock and blasted them all before the Unversed crashed to the water. The creatures faded away and the magic keeping them on top of the water did as well. Sora dropped an inch into the water before he turned to the others. "Wow, we are getting good at this."

The other two nodded as Tiana and Naveen rolled down the tree, their tongues tying them together. "Coo! Well, looky here!" The five turned to see another firefly flying over. "Girl, I guess you and your boyfriend got a little carried away. Am I right?"

"Oh, uh. They aren't together." Sora said.

"Not yet, anyway." Donald teased, making Goofy laugh.

"Oh, really?" The firefly questioned. "Let me shine a little light on the situation." He shook his butt and the light shined on before the insect flew between the frogs. "You done this up real good, for sure. Hang on Cap, I'm gonna give a little twist here."

He pulled on the tongue and the two came undone. "Time I introduce myself. My name Raymond." He wrote his name with his light before erasing the last four letters. "But everybody call me 'Ray'."

"I'm Sora." The keyblade user then motioned to the rest of the group. "This is Donald, Goofy, Tiana and Naveen."

"Pardon me, but your accent..." Naveen mumbled. "It's funny, no?"

"I'm a Cajun, brah." Ray replied as the frog tongues rolled back into their mouths. "Born and bred in the bayou. Y'all must be new around here, huh?"

"Actually, we are from a place far, far away from this swamp." Naveen replied as he stood up.

"Go to bed! Y'll from Shreveport?"

The frog prince stared in disbelief before shaking his head. "No, no, no. We are people."

"Prince Charming here got himself turned into a frog by a voodoo witch doctor." Tiana explained. "And we were on our way to Mama Odie's. We think maybe she can-"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Mama Odie?" Ray asked, earning a nod from the girl. "Ya'll headed the wrong directional, chere. What kind of chucklehead told y'all to go this a way?"

The bushes started rustling as Louis peaked out. "Are they gone?"

"Louis..." Tiana huffed. "Ray here says you've been taking us in the wrong direction."

"First rule of the bayou: never take direction from a gator." Ray whispered to Sora before whistling. The entire swamp then lit up with thousands of other fireflies. "Why, me and my relationals will help show y'all the way."

"Now we're following fireflies?" Donald asked, only for Sora to elbow him. The entire swarm started flying and the group followed suite.


Dr. Facilier's Voodoo Emporium

The darkened room was filled with masks and candles as the voodoo doctor spoke to them. "Friends, I know I'm in hock to y'all pretty deep already, but it seems our little froggy prince lost his way and I need your generous assistance getting him back."

The masks growled at him and their eyes glowed purple, making him laugh as he put his hat back on. "I hear ya. Now, what's in it for y'all? Well..." The doctor pulled out a voodoo doll of an orange haired man and needle, holding the later over the heart. "As soon as I dispose of Big Daddy La Bouff, and I'm running this town-"

He spun around and sprayed a powder as a glowing copy of the city appeared before spinning again, this time holding the city in his hand. "I'll have the entire city of New Orleans in the palm of my hand. And you'll have all the wayward souls your dark little hearts desire."

He blew on the city and the dust went up into the masks, making them smile. "Y'all love that, don't you? So... we got ourselves a deal?" The masks shared a smile before opening their mouths. Shadow creatures stood on the wall before spreading out all over the city.

"Gotta say, was expecting a more intimidating place for you to hide in." The doctor turned around in shock to see a portal open in his shop. Larxene walked out first with her brother following behind. Facilier flipped his cane over like a sword to fight, only for it to get it sliced in half.

"I wouldn't try anything else." Xinkrid said, returning his sword to shadows. "Besides, we come offering a deal."

"A deal?" Dr. Facilier repeated with a raised eyebrow.

"You really expect these... spirits of yours to get the job done?" Larxene asked, picking up a shrunken head before dropping it to the floor. "Why trust those things when you can let us do the job for you?"

"Why would I trust you?" The doctor asked back. "I don't even know anything about you."

"Because our forces are already at their footsteps." The blonde chuckled.


Swamp

The swarm flew back into the swamp as the travelers waved goodbye. They walked further into the marsh before Louis screamed in pain. "Pricker bushes got me!" He shouted, holding his finger.

He collapsed to the ground as Ray stared at Sora, Donald and Goofy. "Go on, I get this." The three followed after Tiana and Naveen when screams caught their attention. The trio raced into the thorn bush where they found the two frogs surrounded by a cluster of Unversed shaped like green grenades appeared. They had a large pipe on top with the Unversed emblem on it as their trigger shook.

Their faces had a happy expression on them before they charged. "What are these things?" Naveen asked.

"Don't worry, we got this." Sora declared before the three charged. One Unversed jumped forward and closed the trigger, creating an explosion. The trio clustered behind Goofy's shield and braced for impact as thorns shot off the branches.

"AHHH!"

Louis cried out in pain as more thorns hit his body. "Sorry!" Sora shouted before he and Donald pointed their weapons forward. Ice spells shot off and froze three of the creatures before Goofy jumped into the air and crashed down, shattering the monsters. One Unversed leaned down and fire began shooting out of its flume.

The fire spread to the dried plants and started burning them. Sora pointed his blade upwards and a massive orb of water appeared before it exploded. The flames died before an Unversed landed on top of him, trapping him in flume. Sora instantly jumped up and impaled the main body, freeing him.

He then saw the other five shaking before their bodies started cracking. "Get behind me!" Sora shouted before he cast a Protega spell. A magical energy barrier surrounded the five, protecting them from the massive explosion. The spell faded, allowing them to see the broken wood and shattered thorns blocking their path.

"I guess we can't go this way." He said before the five turned around.

As the five left the thorn patch, they found Ray removing a cluster of thorns from Louis' butt. "Look, I know we got to get to Mama Odie's..." Ray said before pulling out another thorn. "But this extractification is gonna take a while."

"Well, might as well have something for dinner." Tiana said, tapping a wild gourd. "Swamp gumbo anyone?"

Louis nodded before another thorn was removed. "Oh, Mama!"

"Sounds wonderful. I'll start with a small cocktail and something to nibble on while I wait." Naveen said, resting his feet on a mushroom.

"No, no, no, your royal highness." Tiana shook her head before walking over. "You are going to mince these mushrooms. Donald, start a fire for me. Sora, Goofy, help me pick some peppers." The three climbed to a plant and started picking some wild peppers from the plant.

The three reached the plant and Tiana walked over to the struggling Naveen before mincing the mushroom he was working on. "Now you." She plucked another mushroom and guided his hands a bit.

She picked up the chunks and walks over to the empty gourd. "You know, I've never done anything like this. But when you live in a castle, everything is done for you. All the time. They dress you, feed you, drive you, brush your teeth."

"Oh, poor baby." Tiana teased, stirring the gumbo as Sora added a pepper.

"I admit it was a charmed life." He confessed, playing with a scrap. "Until the day my parents cut me off, and suddenly, I realized I don't know how to do anything."

Tiana hopped over and looked at the food. "Well, you got the makings of a decent mushroom mincer. Keep practicing and I just might hire you." She chuckled before dumping the fungi into the gourd. "Foods ready."

The others gathered around and began feasting on the meal, as they laughed at a joke from Ray. "Anyone for seconds?"

"That was magnific-" A shadow creature suddenly grabbed the prince and began dragging him away.

The others began racing after him when more popped up, blocking their path. Sora summoned his blade and swung it, the weapon of light wiping out two at once. A spiked shadow reared up and grabbed him before throwing him into a tree. Another shadow grabbed the boy by both his arms and legs before pulling.

Sora cried out in pain when a bolt of light suddenly wiped out the creature. More light hit three more shadows before a massive pulse of light wiped out the remaining ones. "Sora?" Donald asked as he and Goofy turned to the Keyblade user, who shook his head after his Cure spell healed him.

The others gasped in shock as a woman in white holding a flaming torch walked forward. "Not bad for a hundred and ninety-seven year old blind woman." Mama Odie chucked before blowing out the flame. "Now which of you naughty children been messing with the Shadow Man?"

Louis and the trio quickly pointed to the prince, who nervously chuckled.


Shadow Emporium

Facilier swung his staff against the crystal ball, shattering the orb into pieces. "We told you not to trust those things." Larxene teased, dusting off her shoulder.

"Shut up!" The Shadow Man shouted back. "I didn't see your friends out there!"

"You need to start looking beyond the obvious." Xinkrid said. "While they might celebrate this minor victory, we are already planning our final blow against them.


Mama Odie's House

"So, Mama Odie, how do we turn back into humans?" Tiana asked.

"If ya'll set on being human, there's only one way." The blind woman replied before walking over to a massive tub filled with gumbo and started stirring it. "Gumbo, gumbo in the pot... We need a princess... Whatcha got?" The food started glowing before it turned into a pink bed room picture.

In it was a sleeping blonde with an eye mask. The liquid then showed a large man enter the room, dressed up as a king as the girl woke up. "That's right... Big Daddy's King of the Mardi Gras parade. So that makes Lottie a princess."

"Does that count?" Naveen and Sora asked at the same time.

"Yes it does, but only until midnight when Mardi Gras is over." The blind woman replied.

"That doesn't give us much time at all! We gotta go now!" Tiana declared, hopping off the shoulder before Naveen and the others followed.

"One minute, children." Odie stopped the traveling trio. "I got something special for you, world walker."

The three stared in shock of her reveal as she walked over to a chest. "How did you-" Sora jumped to the side of a clam before ducking another mollusk.

"Hehe. A hundred or so years will let you see some things." She chuckled before crying out in joy. "Here it is." She leaned down and handed Sora a small glass heart. "Use this when you ready to go. Now come on, come on, come on!" Mama Odie started pushing Louis, forcing the others out of her house. "There's a lot of river between here and Na leans! Y'all best get to swimming."

"Wait!" Louis grabbed the door frame and turned to her. "I got a better idea."


Riverboat

Louis whistled and the other six climbed onto the boat before the gator pulled himself up. People began walking over and the gator panicked before acting like a box. The trio of 'hunters' turned out to be musicians in animal costumes. "Man, that is one killer-diller costume! Gator, can you blow that horn?"

Louis started playing and the trio invited him along. He instantly accepted the offer and raced after trio, leaving the others behind. "We can't miss this!" Ray shouted in excitement. "Little Louis going to finally play with the big boys!"

The others went after him, only to find Naveen staying behind. "I'll catch up with you later." He said before the others raced Louis. The five smaller creatures reached the stage and found the gator jamming with the costumed band.

Sora wasn't that big a jazz fan, but even his feet started tapping to the beat Louis was laying down. A quick scream caught his attention and he looked to see a crab walking off a buffet table, but this one wasn't a normal crab. It was much larger than others he had seen on his home island, and it only had three legs.

The whole body was red, with the exception of the black tips on the leg. It had two sets of claws, one large set and on shell and a second smaller set under its body along with the Unversed emblem. Its large shelled body with 2 angry eyes emblazoned on the shell

More rose up from the table and dropped down to the floor, when Donald and Goofy finally noticed them. Sora and Donald both cast an Aeroga spell, blowing the cast of crabs under the large tablecloth before the three raced after them. The crabs sunk down and their claws pointed out before they started spinning. Donald flew higher while Sora and Goofy stood back to back.

The crabs bounced around under the table and aimed their directions at the two on the ground. Sora and Goofy summoned their weapons and blocked the claws before Donald cast his Gravity Spell. The crabs floated upwards and Sora jumped upwards, impaling the shells of two before they faded away.

The remaining four opened their creak mouths and water shot out a incredible speeds. A stream hit Donald and forced him to the deck before the water suddenly froze and the ice crept onto the crustacean. Goofy spun his shield and tossed it, making the Unversed shatter.

Sora dashed forward and cut off the two large claws before he was hit by the stream. Donald recovered and fired off an electric spell that traveled over the water. The crab shook violently before it exploded into a powder. Goofy slid on his shield and knocked the last two into the air before Sora grabbed him and Goofy rocketed off, crashing into the crabs.

The Unversed stumbled back before Sora hit their backs as hard as he could, flipping the crabs over. Donald then pointed his wand up and summoned magic meteors and peppered the crabs, destroying them. "Well, that wasn't so hard." Sora and the other three merely returned to dancing to the tune, unaware of an Unversed sneaking away from them.


Hours past as the boat finally reached the city. As everyone on the ship walked down the gangplank, Tiana hopped over to Sora's group and Ray. "Hey, have any of you seen Naveen? I haven't seen him since that little dinner we had."

"Look at you..." Ray teased before rubbing his hands together. "Where the ring at?"

"What are you talking about?" The female frog asked. She turned to Sora and company, who shrugged in confusion.

The firefly suddenly gasped before turning around. "Well, if Cap didn't say nothing, I ain't gonna say nothing cause old Ray's as tight as drum." The other four stared at him for a few seconds and he cracked instantly. "Okay, Cap not gonna marry Charolette, he gonna marry you!"

As Ray continued the rambling, Tiana went wide eyed before she smiled. She reached up and hugged Ray before the two hopping into the city. "He was trying to propose! That's why he was mumbling!" Sora and the others chased after them, trying not to get crushed by anything. "Keep your eyes out for the biggest, gaudiest float. With a princess about to kiss herself-" They climbed a street sign, only to find something that broke Tiana's heart.

Charolette was marrying what they assumed was Naveen in human form.

"Oh, no. This can't be right, darling." Ray somberly said. "And how can you still be a frog? Mama Odie, she-" He turned to find the frog missing, much to his surprise.

"You go look for her, Ray." Sora told the firefly as he eyed the float. "We'll go find out what's going on." The trio quickly made their way to the float and hopped onto the highest level. They saw a locked box moving and quickly went over to it. "Naveen!"

Naveen looked through the peephole and went wide eyed. "Sora! Get me out of this box!"

"No problem!" Sora summoned his blade and pointed his Keyblade at the lock. It fired a beam of light at the lock and clicked in open before Naveen hopped up to the human male and pulled on his collar, sending 'Naveen' tumbling off the float.

Sora and the others raced after the man as he entered a building. Sora quickly jumped onto the man and pulled off the necklace, turning Lawrence back to normal. "What's he doing? Stop him!" Facilier shouted as Ray flew into the building.

"Ray, catch!" Sora tossed the necklace over and the firefly caught it before flying away with it. The witch doctor whistled and the shadows chased after Ray.

"Go help him!" Naveen shouted at the trio. "There is something I need to do." The other three raced into the streets and followed the firefly, catching Louis' attention from his float. They followed Ray into a cemetery before the shadows rose up around them, blocking them off.

"Don't make me light my butt!"

Ray flew into a shadow and his butt created a giant hole in the shadow. "That a boy, Ray!" Sora cheered before jumping up. He turned his weapon into its gun form and pointed both in opposite directions before he spun. The light magic peppered the gravestones and destroyed the spirits, turning them to ash.

Sora landed and the four raced further into the cemetery and started searching for Tiana. They reached a crypt just in time to see her smash the pendant, causing all kinds of spirits to fly around. "No! No!" The Shadow Man pushed the frog aside and started trying to put it back together. "How am I ever going to pay back my debt?"

Stones started shaking and he turned around to see the masks from his shop fly over to him. "Friends!"

"ARE YOU READY!?"

"No! I'm not ready at all!' The doctor shouted, standing up and backing away. "In fact, I got lots more plans."

"ARE YOU READY!?"

"This is just a minor setback in a major operation." Voodoo dolls broke out of the ground and sent him tumbling back in fear. "As soon as I whip up another spell, we'll be back in business! I still got that froggy prince locked away! I just need a little more time!" He backed into a grave only for it to turn into a massive mask, forcing him to scramble back.

"No, please!" Something grabbed his shadow and he started getting dragged into the gaping glowing green mouth. "Just a little more time! I promise I'll pay you all back! I promise!" He lost his grip on the ground and was pulled into the portal and it snapped its jaws shut.

Tiana let out a sigh and hopped over to the other four. The Keyblade user suddenly stood up before gripping the blade as a black portal opened up. "I can't believe that idiot got beat by a frog." Larxene complained, staring at the gravestone.

"It's not a total loss." Her brother said, pressing his hand against the stone. "He just needs a little push..."

"What are you doing here!?" Goofy shouted, catching the two's attention before they looked down.

"Oh goody. The losers are here too." The lightning user complained.

Xinkrid smiled under the mask and pulled his hand back. "Not for much longer." He chuckled as the grave started glowing solid black.

The grave stones rose out of the ground before they started stacking in an increasing size. It finally stopped and revealed its form, a large snake creature with the Heartless emblem on its chest. It's huge mouth had large yellow fangs in both jaws and a forked purple tongue. Purple filigree decorated the green body as more grave markers rose up. These turned green and floated around the neck, taking the form of three clawed hands that matched the body.

The massive beast roared and started slithering at the frog girl. "Tiana, get out of here!" Sora shouted before the four charged the beast.

"Can we really take this thin'?" Ray asked.

"Not like this..." Sora reached into his pocket and pulled out the glass heart. Donald and Goofy nodded before the Keyblade user crushed the charm Odie gave them. The three were enveloped by a glow before spirals of light covered them. The trio landed on the ground in their normal forms, ready to fight the monster.

The right arm pulled back before it pushed forward and a stream of flaming skulls shot out. Sora jumped up and whacked the skulls aside before pointing his blade forward. Magic gathered at the tip and a spiral of shots peppered the creature. The beast merely swung its tail, creating a gust of wind that forced Sora down.

Donald rolled to the side and nodded to Goofy before the latter threw his shield. Donald cast a fire spell and the metal caught fire before it hit the creature, chipping a fang. The arm under the head suddenly fired off its fingers, forcing the two back before the third arms palm opened up.

Voodoo doll needles shot out and the two performed the classic limb spread to keep them from puncturing them. Sora raced forward and threw his blade at the snake. The Keyblade threw true and shattered the fangs before it returned to his hands. The Heartless roared before its tail slammed down, knocking the trio into the air.

The three hands shot forward and grabbed the three before slamming them together. The arms then pulled all three to the face and roared at them before it opened its mouth. "A bug got to do what a bug got to do!" Ray shot up and flashed his butt in Heartless' face, blinding the creature.

The hands then dropped the trip as they swatted at the firefly. "Together!" Sora jumped off Goofy's shield and spun, striking the hands as hard as he could. The stone shattered and the arms crumbled, making the creature roar in anger. Sora grabbed Ray and covered the bug before the tail struck, sending the two tumbling.

Donald cast a spell and gravity forced the head to impale itself on a pointed gravestone. The tail began to coil and tried to push itself off, only for Goofy to dive and crash his shield down, making the grave poke through the skull. The eyes rolled into the back of its head as the tail stopped moving.

The Heartless emblem started glowing before a glowing heart floated into the sky. As the last of the graves fell to the ground, the clock struck twelve and echoed through the city. "Should we go see them?" Donald asked.

"There's no need." Sora replied. "They'll be happy with each other. We should probably get going."

"You three gotta go?" Ray asked in sadness. "Well, if you ever come back to the Bayou, be sure to stop by ol' Ray's." Sora nodded before Ray shook a finger of his before flying into the city.


Keyblade Graveyard

Natsu hung his head in exhaustion as the scientist stopped the procedure for the day. Footsteps caught his attention and he looked up to see the siblings walking forward. "You look like hell." Larxene said before reaching into her robe and pulling out a small square covered in powdered sugar.

"Eat up. It's food." She offered the pastry, only for Natsu to turn his head in disgust. "Look, I'm trying to be nice."

The Dragon Slayer grabbed the food in his mouth and tossed it to the side. "You killed Aqua! You killed my brother! Why the hell would I take anything from you!?"

"Why do you even care about her?" Larxene shouted back. "She's lied to you your whole life!"

"Aqua would never do anything like that!" He shouted back before more darkness was suddenly pumped into him, making him scream in pain

Larxene looked down to see her brother at the controls. "Stop playing softball with him." Xinkrid said to his sister before turning to Natsu. "Your little partner knew about your home world all along. You could have saved them years ago."


Gummi Ship

The vastness of space was suddenly interrupted when the Gummi Phone started ringing. Sora turned on the screen and Chip & Dale appeared. "This is bad!" The red nosed chipmunk shouted, making Donald and Goofy lean over Sora's shoulders.

"We lost all contact with the King and Riku!" His brother declared, shocking the trio.


Journal Update

Crawdaddies - To call these Unversed steaming mad would be an understatement. These crustaceans are able to shoot water, steam or fire from their claws or just slash with them. One or two isn't a problem, but a swarm is another story.

Grenadine - These Unversed are a little sloshed, but they're just as deadly. They can fire huge blasts of fire from their large bellows. And if they take too much damage before defeat, these Unversed simply explode into shards, damaging anything around them.

Quad Claw - A tall Unversed with surprising mobility despite its odd number of legs. Its four claws are razor sharp and it could keep distance by shooting high pressured water from its mouth. And its spin attack wasn't anything to laugh at either.

Grave Marker - A heartless born from Dr. Facilier's darkness. Just like him, it can cast all kinds of spells. Everything from flaming skulls to voodoo doll needles to blasts of stone. And its massive fangs aren't just for show either. Its stone body and massive size were overwhelmingly tough.


Never saw this movie when it came out. Which is a real shame because it's probably the best Disney movie I've ever seen... I think. I've been watching this stuff for awhile and I can't remember them all. Believe it or not, this was not the first world I planned on doing. Tech difficulties forced a change, but that's why we have back ups.

Any who, pretty obvious why the Unversed look why they do. Big thanks to NativeVenom for helping with these. And when I draw these up, I will do the ones from the planned worlds afterwards. And I will tell you where they're from too. See ya next time.

Beta read by The 3rd Dragneel.
