Chapter 22: Invasion in Eagleland

Kibou, Sora, Donald, Goofy, Twilight, Arthur, Amity, Kirby, Katara, and Robin Hood leave Halloween Town and return to the Gummi ship, as they revert back to their normal forms and as they're about to continue their journey, the ship's screen turns on, showing Chip.

"Fellas! We have bad news!" Chip said.

"Huh?" Sora asked.

"What's wrong, Chip?" Katara asked.

"A world's bein' invaded by the Heartless!" Dale said, shoving Chip aside.

"What?!" Kibou asked shocked.

"Where is it?" Sora asked.

"It's close to Halloween Town! You gotta hurry before that world is lost to darkness!" Chip said.

"Okay, we'll get there as soon as we can!" Robin said.

"Let's take off!" Donald said.

The Gummi ship begins flying through space while fighting off Heartless ships and dodging obstacles in their path and after a few minutes of flying, they arrive at the next world that has two towns and it's being attacked.

"That must be the world Chip mentioned." Amity said.

"And it's under attack!" Arthur said.

"Don't say it like it's a bad thing, Artie!" Bill said.

"Yep! This is called Eagleland! It's a world where people lived peacefully, but it's awfully...unique in its own way." Chip said.

"C'mon! We gotta hurry and get in there!" Kibou said.

"Right!" Donald said, as they disembark for the world.

(World of Eagleland)

Kibou, Sora, Donald, Goofy, Twilight, Arthur, Amity, Kirby, Katara, and Robin Hood arrive at what looks like a ruined street and look around the ruined street to see if there are Heartless in sight and while looking around, Kirby sees something, which is smoke.

"Poyo!" Kirby said, pointing at the smoke.

"What, Kirby?" Twilight asked and sees the smoke. "Holy Celestia!" Twilight said shocked.

"It looks like it's being caused by the Heartless." Katara said.

"That's where the attack is coming from." Robin said.

"We gotta follow that smoke!" Goofy said and they nod.

The group hurry for the smoke, but just then, Soldiers appear and attack, but Kibou slashes with his Gemblade while Sora slashes with his Keyblade while Donald casts Thundara while Goofy bashes with his shield while Twilight casts Gravira while Arthur triple slashes with his sword while Amity uses her Abomination to use Hammer Fist while Kirby uses Final Cutter while Katara water whips while Robin shoots four arrows and they defeat the Soldiers and continue to follow the smoke. By the time the group get close to the smoke, they find what looks like a broken sign that says 'Onett' and later arrive at a different area.

(Onett-Downtown)

The group arrive at what looks like a town and there are destroyed buildings everywhere, so the group explore around to see if there are Heartless in sight.

"Gawrsh, ya think the Heartless are responsible?" Goofy asked, looking around.

"They must be. This place is ruined..." Twilight said.

"And kinda gloomy..." Arthur said.

"Just the way I like it. Although, this town... It reminds me of Gravity Falls... Very interesting." Bill said.

"The Heartless really did a HUGE number on this place." Donald said.

"I'm shocked this world's not destroyed yet." Sora said.

"Sora, don't jinx it!" Amity said.

Just then, Large Bodies, Soldiers, and Air Soldiers appear.

"Ah HA! Heartless!" Kibou said, taking out his Gemblade.

"Let's get rid of them!" Robin said.

"Agreed." Twilight said.

(Battle Theme: Earthbound Battle Theme)

The Large Bodies double punch at the group while the Soldiers attack with their claws, but Kibou casts Gravira while Sora triple slashes with Kingdom Key followed by casting Earthra, but the Air Soldiers deliver flying punches, only for Katara to use Freeze, allowing Goofy to use Rocket while Twilight unleashes two magenta lightning bolts while Robin uses Arrow Rain.

"There are probably more Heartless around here." Sora said.

"Let's have ourselves a nice look around. We should also make sure if there are any people, who are okay." Twilight said.

"Good idea, Twilight." Arthur said.

(Field Theme: Onett-Sad Version)

The group begin exploring Onett and Heartless are still around and attack the group, only for Kibou to throw Faerie Gem while Sora delivers an edge slash with Kingdom Key and they defeat the Heartless and the group continue to find more Heartless, as well as looking for people to see if anyone is okay in the invasion and as they keep looking around, they arrive somewhere else.

(Onett-Park)

"Ugh, there's just no end to this..." Katara said.

"They keep coming in droves." Robin said.

"Doesn't matter. Keep fighting." Kibou said.

The Heartless begin to attack, but just then, something strikes at the Heartless, defeating them.

"Huh?" Sora asked.

"What happened?" Donald asked.

Someone arrives and it's the same purple hooded cloaked figure with the rapier Gemblade.

"Hey, it's you! The strange figure from Agrabah!" Kibou said and the cloaked figure nods.

"Nice to see you again. Thanks for the help." Sora said, grinning and the cloaked figure nods again.

"Still giving us the silent treatment, I see." Amity said, crossing her arms.

"So, what're you doing here? Are you traveling to other worlds too?" Kibou asked, but the cloaked figure says nothing.

"Talking to this one's like pulling teeth." Donald said, crossing his arms.

"Can ya at least us who you are" Goofy asked, but the cloaked figure shakes its head.

"Why not? You can trust us." Kibou said, but the cloaked figure holds out its hand and leaves the park.

"Hey, wait!" Sora called.

"I wanna know who that person is! I'm at least owed that much." Kibou said, as he goes after the figure.

"Kibou!" Arthur called, as they follow him.

The group follow thw cloaked figure while exploring Onett, but then, Soldiers appear and attack the group, but Kibou delivers four slashes with Faerie Gem followed by Crescent Slash while Sora diagonal slashes with Kingdom Key followed by a 360 slash and then casts Fira, but the Air Soldiers air dive to attack.

"Thanks for the help again." Sora said and the cloaked figure nods.

"This is annoying! Just how many more Heartless are there?" Donald asked.

"Not sure, but we need to keep fighting them and we need to find that Keyhole before they do." Katara said.

"Let's keep moving." Kibou said and turns to the cloaked figure. "Wanna come with?" Kibou asked and the cloaked figure nods. "Awesome!" Kibou said, grinning.

"But when this is over, you have to tell us who you are." Amity said.

"You owe us that much." Arthur said and the cloaked figure nods.

"Great! Let's go." Twilight said.

The group continue to search Onett while fighting off more Heartless and while the group are still searching for more Heartless and other people, the group see what looks like a young boy with black hair, wearing a red cap, a yellow and blue striped shirt, blue shorts, red shoes, and a backpack on his back fighting against Shadows.

"That boy looks like he's in trouble." Katara said.

"We gotta help him!" Goofy said, as they confront the Heartless.

"Don't worry! We got this!" Kibou said.

"We'll take it from here!" Sora said.

The Shadows attack the group with their claws, but Kibou vertical slashes with Faerie Gem followed by two diagonal slashes and then casts Blizzara while Sora delivers two horizontal slashes with Kingdom Key followed Blitz while the cloaked figure delivers five slashes with the rapier Gemblade followed by a flipping slash, but the Shadows sink into the ground and attack with their claws.

"That's that for now." Sora said.

"You okay?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah, thanks. Where'd you guys come from anyway?" The boy asked.

"Um, we're from a different city far away." Kibou said.

"Really? Seems like you got an interesting group, but I've seen a lotta interesting stuff in my journey." The boy said.

"You had a journey?" Amity asked.

"Yeah, I did. I fought a weird messed up alien named Giygas and his minions." The boy said.

"That's...very interesting..." Arthur said.

"Anyway, do you know why the Heartless are invading this town?" Katara asked.

"How should I know? All I know is that these creatures were atatacking Onett and since then, I've been fighting these freaks. Many people lost their lives during the attack and my mom and Tracy..." The boy stops talking.

"I'm sorry." Sora said.

"I don't even know WHY they're here. At first, I thought they were what remained of Giygas' minions out for revenge, but I guess I was wrong. How could they be attacking this town?" The boy asked.

"They're after the Keyhole." Kibou said.

"The what?" The boy asked.

"It's important to find the Keyhole before the Heartless do and before they destroy the town entirely." Robin said.

"We'd better skedaddle." Goofy said.

"I dunno what you guys're talking about, but if you're here to take out these Heartless freaks, then I'm in." The boy said.

"Okay, I guess you can handle your own. I'm Kibou." Kibou introduced.

"Name's Sora. These're Donald, Goofy, Twilight, Arthur, Amity, Kirby, Katara, and Robin Hood." Sora introduced himself and the others.

"And this Cloaked Figure." Kibou introduced the cloaked figure, who waves.

"Once again, interesting group. Name's Ness." Ness introduced.

"Okay, Ness." Let's go." Kibou said.

Just then, Ness feels something in his head.

"Ness! I'm so glad I got a hold of you!" A voice said in Ness' head and it's a female voice.

"Paula?! It's been a while since our last adventure! What's going on?" Ness asked.

"There are monsters that attacked my town! Everyone, including my parents..." Paula's voice stops talking.

"Wait, don't tell they're attacking Twoson too?!" Ness asked.

"They have and now they're gaining up on me! Please, Ness, I need your help!" Paule pleaded.

"Hang on, Paula! I'm coming!" Ness said.

"Ness?" What's going on?" Amity asked.

"That was my friend, Paula. She has psychic abilities, like me and she just used telepathy to communicate with me with her mind. She told me that her town, Twoson, is under attack and they're going after her." Ness said.

"Lemme guess, Heartless?" Sora asked.

"Yeah. I have to get to Twoson before she gets killed." Ness said.

"Or worse, they'll consume her heart..." Arthur said.

"Isn't that the same thing?" Ness asked.

"In a way..." Donald said.

"Well, we gotta hurry!" Goofy said.

"But we don't even know WHERE Twoson is." Kibou said.

"I do and I just happen to be a master of teleportation!" Ness said, grinning.

"Really? Well, use it so we can help your friend." Katara said.

"Just hang tight! TELEPORT!" Ness shouted, as he uses his psychic power to teleport the group out of Onett.

Later, the group are now in a different town, which is also in ruins.

"Here we are, Twoson." Ness said.

"Oh, no! They DID attack this place too." Twilight said.

"Let's go find Paula. I'm NOT letting these freaks hurt her!" Ness said.

"Right!" Sora said.

(Field Theme: Boy Meets Girl-Sad Version)

(Twoson-Downtown)

The group start moving through Twoson to find where Paula is while fighting off Heartless in their way and while searching for Paula, they find what looks like a ruined building that says 'Polestar Preschool' and so Ness goes into the ruined building and the group follow.

(Polestar Preschool)

The group arrive in the preschool, which is in ruins and they find a young girl with blonde hair, wearing a pink dress and red bow fighting off Shadows and Soldiers, as she's unleashing fireballs and lightning bolts, but the Heartless keep going after her.

"Paula!" Ness yelled.

"Get the hell away from her!" Kibou yelled.

Kibou casts Thundara while Ness attacks with his baseball bat followed by using PK Flash while Sora vertical slashes with Kingdom Key, but the Shadows sink into the ground and attack with their claws. Kirby uses Star Kick and delivers a star shaped kick attack while Arthur vertical slashes with his sword while Goofy uses Tornado, but the Soldiers deliver spin kick attacks, only for Robin to use Arrow Barrage, but the Shadows leap attack with their claws.

"They almost had me. Thank you, Ness." Paula said.

"Paula, what happened?" Ness asked.

"This didn't happen long ago. These creatures showed up recently and began to attack everyone and everything in this town. They got my mom and dad and everyone in Twoson..." Paula stops talking, as she starts crying.

"I'm sorry. Onett shared the same fate." Ness said, hugging Paula.

"Gawrsh, both their homes got attacked..." Goofy said.

"Those Heartless make me sick!" Kibou said, clenching his fist, but the cloaked figure places its hand on his shoulder to calm him down.

"We really need to find that Keyhole and soon." Sora said and they nod.

"Paula, I know this isn't easy for you, but did you see anything else other than the Heartless?" Katara asked.

"Actually, while these Heartless were attacking Twoson, I saw someone. He looked like a young man with red hair. It was like he watching the Heartless attack the town and he was enjoying it. I wanted to see what he was up to, but that's when those Heartless you just defeated came after me." Paula explained.

"Wait, did you say a young man with red hair?" Arthur asked.

"Yes." Paula said.

"Kay." Sora said and they nod.

"So, that lunkhead's here too. I can imagine Azula and Gideon are also with him." Katara said.

"With them here, then that just makes things even worse." Amity said and they nod.

"We'd better go find them before they find the Keyhole before us." Kibou said.

"Hold on. I wanna come too. If those guys you mentioned are responsible, I want to make them pay." Ness said, clenching his fist.

"I know you want revenge, Ness, but..." Donald was cut off.

"I don't care how dangerous they are. They mess with my hometown and Paula's, they're NOT getting away with this!" Ness said.

"Okay, you can come, but just don't do anything reckless." Robin said.

"Stay here, Paula. I don't want you to get hurt." Ness said.

"Ness..." Paula stops talking.

"Ready?" Sora asked and they nod.

"Let's move." Kibou said, as they leave the preschool.

The group begin exploring Twoson to search for Kay while still fighting off Heartless in town and they continue to search Twoson, but as they keep searching, Sora looks up at a roof of a ruined building and sees two people.

"Sora?" Kibou asked.

"I see two people on the roof." Sora said, pointing at two figures.

"Do you think...?" Robin asked.

"Let's have a look." Katara said.

The group climb up the ruined building and reach the top of the roof, where they see Kay and Gideon.

"No surprise you two are here!" Twilight said, making the two stop.

"Are you responsible for bringing the Heartless here?" Arthur asked.

"Hehehe, y'all're just TOO clever, ain't ya? Gotta admit, didn't expect you slack-jawed idiots to be here too. All I wanted was to find that Keyhole and be on my merry way, but since y'all are here, it looks like I'll have to modify my plan here again." Gideon said, looking down at Twoson. "Ya know, when I look at this here town and Onett, they remind me of my old home world, Gravity Falls. I hated every single THING about that worthless speck of a town! Nothin' but mouth-breathin' fools, my idiotic parents, who don't know squat about anythin', and worst of all, the Pines family!" Gideon yelled, unleashing a dark ball and throws it at a ruined building, destroying it! "As soon as I find that Keyhole and let the Heartless destroy this worthless world, I'll just tingle with joy, as I'll watch it disappear!" Gideon said, smiling evilly.

"Wow, that's a bit brutal, even by your standards." Kay said.

"I don't recall askin' your garbage opinion, ya caveman!" Gideon yelled.

"Why you..." Kay growled.

"You're messed up!" Kibou said.

"You're...just like Porky, only ten times worse!" Ness said.

"Hehehe, funny you should say that, boy, 'cause when I look at you..." Gideon stops talking, unleashing a dark ball at Ness, who uses his baseball bat to swing the dark ball away. "You make me think of that irritatin', worthless, piece of garbage Dipper PINES and that makes me ANGRY!" Gideon shouted, as dark aura covers him.

"Wow, Giddy's SUPER angry! I like that! He and I both can't stand Pine Tree!" Bill said.

"Huh?" Arthur asked.

"Nobody cares about your little tantrum, Gideon! We're getting that Keyhole before you!" Twilight said.

"And if you get in our way, we'll just remove you." Amity said.

"It's you worthless peons that'll be removed! I will..." Gideon was cut off.

"Back off, Cockroach! You wanna see this world gone, yeah? Look for the Keyhole. I'll deal with the insects." Kay said, pounding his fist into his other hand.

"For once, we're in an agreement. Fine, Kay, you keep 'em busy while I find that Keyhole, but don't fail me!" Gideon said, disappearing in his dark portal.

"So, who's up for a nice beating?" Kay asked.

"Have you forgotten you couldn't beat us back at Mercury Lighthouse?" Katara asked.

"And the fact you were too stupid to finish the job." Arthur said darkly, as his eyes are glowing yellow with black slit pupils again

"What was that, Wart?" Kay asked angry.

"You heard me. You think you're so powerful, but in the end, you're just all bark and no bite. You're an embarassment!" Bill-Arthur said darkly.

"That's it! I'll crush every last one of you and you, Wart, I'll finally wrap my fingers around your scrawny throat!" Kay yelled.

The group jump off the building the confront Kay, who takes out his sword.

"Enjoy this fight, since it's your last and Gideon's all set for destroying this world." Kay said.

"That's not gonna happen!" Ness yelled.

"Time for another reality check!" Donald said, taking out his staff.

"Let's make this guy cry like the stupid baby he really is!" Bill-Arthur said.

"I'm no stupid baby!" Kay yelled.

"No you don't!" Kibou said, as his Gemblade summons the blue Faerie Heart, which transforms into a Faerie that has blue watery hair, a blue scaly tailfin, wearing a cyan bra, and seashell earrings.

"It's sooo good to be out! Call me Hydria. So, how can I help you?" Hydria asked.

"Soak this idiot!" Kibou said.

"Sure!" Hydria said, unleashing beams of water at Ky and then unleashes a whirlpool of water to deal great damage. "That's all I can do now. Call me again, okay?" Hydria said, disappearing.

"You lot are soooo annoying!" Kay yelled.

"Had enough yet, Kay?" Bill-Arthur asked, smirking.

"You stupid little...! This isn't over! Not by a long shot!" Kay said.

"Oh, it is and we're gonna..." Katara was cut off, as a shaking occurs.

"What?!" Ness asked.

"Oh, no! The Heartless!" Twilight said.

"They're still destroying the town!" Sora said.

"We need to find Gideon!" Goofy said.

"Looks like he found the Keyhole! You're too late for a change!" Kay said, smirking.

"Not if we have anything to say about it!" Kibou said and Paula arrives.

"Ness, help!" Paula pleaded in Ness' mind.

"Paula! What's wrong?" Ness asked.

"I-I've been captured by Gideon! He's in Onett at the top of the hill!" Paula said, shocking Ness.

"The hill with the meteor!" Ness said.

"He's trying to find something called the 'Keyhole' and he thinks it's somewhere in Onett! Ness, please help!" Paula said.

"Guys! We gotta head back to Onett!" Ness said.

"Huh?" Donald asked.

"Paula's been taken by Gideon and I think he found what you guys are trying to look for." Ness said.

"Oh, no!" Kibou said shocked.

"We gotta head back to Onett!" Amity said.

"TELEPORT!" Ness said, as they teleport out of Twoson.

The group return to Onett.

"Okay, lead the way, Ness." Kibou said.

The group hurry their way through Onett, but a shaking occurs and they come across a different area.

(Onett-Hill)

The group arrive at the hill area and begin climbing up while fighting off Heartless and they later reach the top of the hill, where they find Gideon and Paula standing next to a giant meteor.

"Ness!" Paula said.

"No surprise that Kay failed what he was supposed to do, but then again, he's an idiot, but his job was to distract y'all." Gideon said.

"So, you think the Keyhole is somewhere on this hill?" Sora asked.

"That's what I think. The problem is that this here meteor is in my way." Gideon said, as he uses his darkness to destroy the meteor, revealing a crater. "Now, let's see if the Keyhole's here!" Gideon said and just then, a Keyhole appears on the crater. "Whoo-wee! Slap my hide and call me Sally! The Keyhole!" Gideon cheered.

"Oh, no you don't, brat!" Amity yelled, firing a pink fireball at Gideon, who conjures a dark barrier.

"I'm really sick of y'all in my way! I'm tryin' to destroy this stupid world and you're my obstacles!" Gideon yelled.

"Paula!" Ness said.

"He's worse than Porky and we need to stop him." Paula said.

"Damn..." Kibou said, as he, Sora, Donald, Twilight, and the cloaked figure cast Cure while Katara uses her Waterbending to heal while Ness uses PSI Healing.

"That's dangerous. We gotta be careful..." Arthur said.

Kibou uses Cyclone Slash and delivers his spinning slash attack and then unleashes a giant spin slash while unleashing a massive magic strike while Sora uses Strike Raid and throws his Keyblade four times, only for Gideon to fire beams of darkness.

"Nope!" Kibou said, using his Keyblade to summon his purple Gemblade, which summons a Faerie with purple poison hair, purple poison wings, wearing a purple dress with a skull on it, and purple earrings.

"Finally out! Well, I'm Toxius, Faerie of Poison. Gimme someone to poison." Toxius said.

"That brat." Kibou said, pointing at Gideon.

"Okay." Toxius said, using her poison magic to unleash orbs of poison, as well as waves of poison, dealing damage. "There, finished. I'm gonna rest now, call when you need me." Toxius said, disappearing.

"Had enough yet?" Kibou asked, grinning.

"Hehehehe! You idiots! The Keyhole remains unsealed! I'm gonna unlock it and drag this wretched world to the shadows!" Gideon said.

"No!" Ness yelled using PK Rockin', getting Gideon.

"Sora! Hurry!" Donald yelled.

"Yeah, I got it!" Sora said, using his Keyblade to quickly lock the Keyhole.

"NO!" Gideon shouted, trying to stop Sora.

"Uh-uh!" Twilight said, using her Telekinesis to lift Gideon.

Sora successfully locks the Keyhole, which disappears, saving Eagleland from the darkness.

"In your face, Gideon!" Ness said.

"Argh! Don't think this is the end! You've invoked a wrath that you'll NEVER escape from!" Gideon yelled, disappearing in darkness.

"Oooh, we're so scared." Katara said sarcastically.

Just then, a violet Faerie Heart appears.

"Another Faerie Heart." Goofy said.

"Come to papa!" Kibou said.

Just then, something steals the violet Faerie Heart and it's Silver Knight.

"That makes two Faerie Hearts for me. Thanks, Kibou." Silver Knight said, putting the violet Faerie Heart in his Gemblade.

"You masked jerk!" Kibou yelled.

"Give that back along with the other Faerie Heart you stole!" Arthur yelled.

"Nope. You want it, try to take it." Silver Knight said.

The cloaked figure tries to attack Silver Knight with the rapier Faerie Gem, only for Silver Knight to lock with his Gemblade.

"Nice try, idiot! You were too weak to stop me! You can't stop me now!" Silver Knight said, swinging his Gemblade, sending the cloaked figure back and onto the ground.

"Hey, leave my friend alone!" Kibou yelled, throwing his Gemblade.

"Later, loser." Silver Knight said, disappearing in darkness.

"Ugh, I hate that guy." Sora said.

Kibou runs for the cloaked figure.

"Hey, you okay?" Kibou asked, but he sees the hood off, revealing the figure's face and it's a girl with shoulder length auburn hair, much to Kibou's shock. "Wait a minute... C-Celica...?!" Kibou asked shocked.

The girl opens her eyes and sees Kibou, making her shocked.

"Is it...really you?" Kibou asked, but the girl backs away from Kibou and runs away. "Wait! CELICA!" Kibou called, but the girl is gone.

"Wait, was that really Celica, Kibou? One of your friends?" Sora asked.

"She was with us this whole time here?" Twilight asked.

"And if that was the same colaked figure in Agrabah..." Goofy stops talking.

"Was that still Celica?" Amity asked.

"Kibou...?" Sora asked.

"If that was the same figure from Agrabah...was Celica helping us this whole time...? Why didn't she say anything to me? Why did she have to hide herself from me? Why didn't she at least let me know she was okay?!" Kibou asked, as tears flow from his face.

"I'm sure she had a good reason, but..." Arthur stops talking.


Downtown, the girl is running through the town and stops.

"Damn... I got careless..." The girl said.

Arriving to the girl is the same black Alicorn.

"It seems this world is safe, though in damaged condition. I see you decided to unveil yourself." The Alicorn said.

"No! That's not what I did. I was dealing with Silver Knight and he..." The girl stops talking.

"But, Celica, are you not happy to allow your frind Kibou to see you?" The Alicorn asked.

"I wasn't just ready for him to see me yet... I didn't want him to see me until our mission is over." Celica said.

"But now he knows who you are. What will you do? He will go through the ends of the Realm of Light for you." The Alicorn said.

"Let him. I have my own mission to do. You know it's important." Celica said.

"Very well, but once we are finished, you will have to speak to him again." The Alicorn said.

"Let's go, Luna." Celica said.

"You are impossible sometimes." Luna said, creating a portal. "Let's be off." Luna said, going for the portal.

"Kibou... I'm sorry..." Celica said, going for the portal, before it disappears.


Meanwhile, the group are talking to Ness and Paula.

"So, what're you two gonna do now?" Sora asked.

"I guess we're gonna have leave our homes behind and find our other friends. See if they made it." Ness said.

"We're going to Winters first to find Jeff." Paula said.

"We're really sorry what happened here. If only we got here sooner..." Kibou stops talking.

"Nah, it is what it is. Paula and I are just live our lives, like everyone wants us to." Ness said.

"Well, good luck to you both." Twilight said.

"And thank you for helping us." Paula said.

"Ready?" Ness asked.

"Yes." Paula said, as Ness uses Teleport to leave Onett.

"Guess we should be going too." Amity said.

"Yeah." Kibou said, hanging his head down.

"Kibou..." Sora stops talking.

"I know you're worried about Celica, but we'll find her. You know that." Katara said.

"Yeah..." Kibou said.

"And we'll ALL make sure to find her, RIGHT?" Amity asked, glaring at Donald, who is taken aback.

"Yes! Of course!" Donald said.

"Don't give up now. What matters is she's okay, and we'll see her again." Sora said, grinning.

"Yeah! Let's get moving." Kibou said, as they make their way to leave Onett.


Meanwhile in the pirate ship, Silver Knight, with his mask off examines his Gemblade, as he now has the red Faerie Heart and the violet Faerie Heart.

"Two Faerie Hearts, but the loser still has seven! I'm still too short." Silver Knight said.

"I think that brat needs a nice lesson." Bete Noire said, putting on his helmet mask.

"As much as I LOVE to make him to suffer, Facilier told us not to kill him." Silver Knight said.

"I'm not gonna kill the brat. I'm not stupid. He and Sora just need a nice reality check that they're still on the losing end of things. Besides, I'm bored. I wanna go out and have me some fun." Bete Noire said.

"Do what you want, Noire. Just don't go too far, cause I like my share of torment." Silver Knight said.

"Fine by me. Later." Bete Noire said, disappering in his darkness.


There's Chapter 22, and after a nice break from the story, it's to write another chapter. Still having fun with the story. Couldn't really figure out what world to use, so I decided to use Earthbound instead. Let me know what you think of the chapter. Look forward to more action coming on the way, as the story continues. I really hope you're enjoying this story so far and continue looking forward to what's gonna happen next. Hope you enjoyed this chapter and I'll see you in Chapter 23, where Kibou, Sora, and their friends return to Traverse Town and Kibou and Sora examine the book to meet a new friend in it. See ya. PS, if you have any ideas for the story going forward in general, I'd love to hear them too via review or PM. That's all from me. See ya in the next chapter.
