Of Keys and Hammers

by zcritic88

In a realm beyond, the Four Chaos has taken notice of a realm tied close to the heart. They squirmed into the darkness and sought to corrupt if to reach a prize beyond the light. Will the Light of Order, be able to repel this ancient evil?

77. An Adventure in the Big City

During a bright morning. The band of Big Hero 6 were gathered at the Garage in anticipation and in a process of ideas. Hiro downloaded particular data from Kairi and Goofy, into Go Go's weaponized wheels. Data on a particular, projectile attack and of a charge. Honey Lemon gathered chem balls to an idea she got from Sora. "So if more of these are thrown in a consistent rate, it would make an adhesive stronger than the honey from that Keyblade."

The boy nodded to the idea. "And that is what that bazooka mode is for?" Honey Lemon nodded and squeed. "But what if it can transform beyond that?" Sora imagined gattling guns and liked the idea, he asked the crew. "Hey, is there a word to call a bunch of chem balls being fired at once?" Goofy and Donald had no idea, Riku tried to think of a term as Kairi had a clue. "Multiple rounds?"

Ken was talking with Wasabi about a particular thing and had a flash back of the many times he been shot at on board the Planet Killer and a moment in the Underworld where Orks aimed ridiculously large guns, one of them shouted the word to use. "Dakka?" Wasabi was confused. "That's... not a word." Ken took a deep breath to inhale some trauma, calmed down and exhaled relaxing carbon. "It isn't, but I know a big green maniac that shoots a big gun, with no regard to aim and uses the term, Dakka. Thankfully, we got a better aim." Sora cringed at where the term came from and Ken insist that it's a good place holder. Honey Lemon hesitated to use the term as she and Sora went to Hiro to talk of the idea.

Ken got over his ordeal and looked at the Wasabi's wrist. "So if you turn the Plasma Cutters into projectiles on the spot, it can be handy at close range." He mimicked shooting something with a rifle. "Pew! Pew!" And he mimicked holding a trigger hard and letting go. "Pow! You charge it up for a mega shot" Wasabi got a more handy idea, aimed his wrists to a wall and go. "Pew, pew!" and pressed the wrists together. "Hwuyaaa!" Mimickeding a combined, mega shot, Ken imagined the damage and looked at the wall with awe. "Wow."

Fred was in a rather heated debate with Riku and Donald. The silver haired boy criticized. "The ice is good, but it doesn't work as well with fire unless you use fire first." Fred scratched the side of his head and gasped. "Huh! Combo move!" Donald considered that. "A frost burn?" Fred nodded. "A Frost Burnado!" Riku bobbed his head. "Nice name, you ever considered shooting beams out of that costume?" Fred gave a. "Ohh ho, ho, ho!" Donald remembers a particular combo he and Goofy have done. "That can get stronger and quicker when you don't need a partner for that." Goofy over heard that and chuckled. "Hi'yuck, some are better at the skill than others, ya know."

That was generally agreed on and in the span of an early morning, the ideas were downloaded into the gear and an armorless Baymax was the last to receive a download, particularly, data from the four Keybearers. Hiro took out a computer chip with the logo of a m, approached an Baymax and pressed a button to reveal an ID for the chips, a green chip with the logo of a doctor and the name Tadashi Hamada and a red chip with a super hero's logo was in the socket. Hiro placed the new chip in with the two and pressed them in, the socket closed and the tech boy was proud of an accomplishment. "That, should do it. So, what do we need to look out for?"

Sora thought to get straight to the point. "Besides anyone with a logo of chaos, there are some suspicious people that could be going around in black coats, so they won't get spotted. If you see anyone looking dark, scary and acting weird with the weirdos of the city, they could be up to something and take it from us, they are working with the Forces of Chaos." Riku felt the words were well said. "Although, one of the Darkseekers won't need as much force as the Skaven. Those rats done most of the work for us and if Donald and Goofy are correct, Wade was the one who got his hands dirty." Goofy nodded. "And in case you see a big guy who looks like he came from where we came from, Pete's gotten more dangerous, but he'll run when things don't go his way."

Riku finished up. "I think he, his boss and most of those working with his boss, are in a bit of an in fight with the more serious group. I'd also don't think their majoriy would be the ones who would want to wreck the city." Go Go took out a stick of gum. "So we can hold back on that group. Good, the last time something this big moved on over to this city, things got violent."

Hiro signaled a time out. "It's not going to get violent again. Our friends need a tour of the city and we need to find something before we suit up. So, who's going with who?" Sora, Donald and Goofy looked to each other with a plan, the spiky haired boy waved a suggestion. "Me, Donald and Goofy could go look for Deadpool and see if he's ready to start helping us, Baymax can use the course."

Riku felt it was a fair idea. "Wade should have gotten paid by now. Any of you guys know a good clothes store around?" Wasabi thought of one and was looking a little glisten eyed to the idea as Fred laughed to that. "Then you, my friend have asked the right guys."

Kairi looked to pondering Honey Lemon and a bored Go Go. "We could look for some of the friends who've helped us last night. Xion's got a condition that is hard to really explain, but the sooner we find her, the sooner we can find some stuff to do between us girls." Honey Lemon giggled to that as Go Go rolled her eyes. "It would kill a day."

Ken was left with the default. "If I don't find her first. So, Hiro. It looks like there is a bunch of stuff we want to talk about." Hiro had his hands behind his back in a nervous question as Baymax spoke for him. "Kendry, the components and structure for your prosthetic arm is a rarity and it seems like you have a vast knowledge of other mechanical devices." Hiro froze up, that was precisely what was on his mind, Ken sighed and relaxed his bionic arm as he address Baymax. "And I never thought something like you, would exist. A friend of ours have a word for the heart of the machine, the personality found in all devices, both big and small."

Sora cringed at what Ken was mentioning and whispered. "Order." Ken groaned and silently let him know. "I know we're not suppose to talk about that." Hiro realized what Ken was talking about. "Like an a.i?" The group knew that meant, artificial intelligence and Ken nodded. "Kind of like that, but it's a bit more." With that, Hiro pressed a button to open the garage door and the group of parties, split up.

At a street

Dupmic and Xion had their stomachs rumbling, the girl read a map of a particular cafe that was close by as the hooded boy looked like he had a rather pleasant awakening. "I still can't believe Karla let us do that, without any catch. So, after we hit this Lucky Cat place, we'll get started on finding the guys and seeing what else they have to do." He had a question on his mind. "So, if a Spiderman is actually here and he looks like the one I read about, how is that even possible? Isn't there some rule around here that keeps the business of certain places... secluded?"

Xion shrugged like she had no idea. "Either it is a really good impersonator that doesn't know any better or there is a loop hole." Rumble! They found a particular blue, three floored building. The first floor, having decorations around cats and not looking that busy. They entered and found the odd sight of fish symbols, paper lanterns, cheery blossoms and more cat images. They found a particular woman, with short brown hair, a black, sleeveless shirt, a pair of blue jeans and an apron, she finished giving a particular, brown haired man in an unimpressive brown jacket, blue shirt and black pants, a plate of eggs, bacon donut and hot tea. "Here you go Peter." Peter finished reading a news paper and smiled to her. "Thanks Cass." The woman noticed two more customers and made a run to the counter, where a calicio cat, with green eyes was laying by the cash register. The cat purred, notice the woman and wanted to brush at her arm. Xion asked, with little regard to her condition. "You really like cats? Huh?" The woman nodded. "Mochi is a chilled cat. So what are you kids here for?"

Xion silently cheered a yes and looked to the donuts as the Replica took some munny. "Breakfast, a half a dozen donuts for here would be nice and..." Xion picked the tea of the day. "Two of the teas to drink. My brother pays." Cass was on the brewing and picked some appetizing chocolate icing donuts. "Coming right up."

The siblings smiled to each other over breakfast on the road and picked a table close to a window, the man having breakfast noticed something odd, closed his eyes to think about what he heard and opened them, looking less confused. The man took his chance and asked the Replica. "So, any reason for the hoodie and sun glasses? You don't act like someone from the streets." The boy answered that and felt something familiar about the man. "It's complicated, you can say I'm trying to keep away from someone until I get the nerve to find him later today. You... know a guy with silver hair, is normally not a cheerful one and is hanging around with a bunch of friends who are silly?"

Peter focused back on his food. "I might, you're friends with him?" Xion hesitated to answer as the Replica looked to her and back to Peter. "I'm friends with someone who is." The man guessed. "You're sister?" Xion flinched and nodded. "Yep! I'm finding more ways to get by my issue, each day." Pete smiled to the two on a particular job well done. "So there really was someone who helped Wade out. Nice one." The Replica hummed. "And we're thinking that issue he had, isn't going to be the last big thing that's going to happen in the city. You have that hunch as well?"

Peter nodded. "A lot of people are figuring that out by now. So what are a couple kids going to do about it?" The Replica concluded. "Use that as my chance to meet this guy I've been trying to avoid and get it over with while Xion catches up with her contacts and try not to get lost." Xion got defensive. "Hey, you don't know anything about this city either and I got a map!" Cass arrived at the nick of time with the food. "And here you kids go." The two's argument broke at the sight of the fluffy wheels a Dupmic waved. "Thank you." Xion gave her own thanks and grabbed a wheel. Nom! Peter felt the plan made sense. "If you know them that well, you can guess who they're with. I want to get to job searching myself." Dupmic thought about it. "I think we can. Thanks for taking up the waiting time, Peter" He waved and gave a wild smile, the man smirked and waved back, he went back to his food.

At a park with patches of grass and rock formations.

Sora and Baymax had a minor quarrel with run of the mill, heartless as they crossed a particular collection of lines. At the park, with a fountain in the center. Given the chance; Sora, Donald and Goofy enjoyed the sights as Baymax felt a squirrel jump on his hand and lifted it close to his face. "Hello." Sora spun around at the sky scrapers and still, found it hard to believe such a world actually exists. "The last city we've been to, looked nothing like this." Donald agreed with that. "Someone could wander in here and never been seen again, because of all the sights."

Goofy chuckled to that and noticed a particular man in a red and black costume, wearing a not mysterious, red hooded coat that has white highlights, he had a small, phone like device, he was singing something off beat. "When you walk away, you don't hear me say. Please, oh baby," The man realized people were staring at him, quickly recognized Goofy and Donald, turn off his device and put it in his pocket. "Uh... right, this couldn't" he tried laughing it off. "be more random and awkward."

Baymax heard, gently guided the squirrel to a rock and spoke. "Greetings, Wade Wilson. We appreciate your cooperativeness for the ongoing crisis." Wade tried to forget what he was listening to and guessed. "Great, and I got to go get this cash somewhere safe while you all enjoy this big sandbox. Tee, hee." Sora's eyes half closed and he had his left hand on his hip. "You know when this is over, we're going to have to get you back home, where you belong. You're breaking so many rules by coming into this city."

Deadpool sighed and took his hooded jacket off. "Yeah, this is too much of a crossover. And I got some intel that confirms that we got more muck heads in the shadows." He took out a set of katanas and issued a challenge to Sora. "This is so forced, but if you can beat this sudden boss fight, I'll give ya all the intel I've seen today." Sora flinched. "Huh?! Wait we're fighting right now?" Deadpool answered with an overly deep voice, triggering Sora's instinct to draw his keyblade. "Beat ol Wade Wilson, before he makes you restart!" He charged. "That's enough."

He sprinted at Sora and was parried, the boy flipped him away as his companions were ready to intervene, Sora signaled them. "Wait a minute, this fight will be quick." Deadpool flipped and taunted. "And quick, it will be."

Sora took the taunt as his que to go in and attack, hitting Deadpool over the face with the blunt end of the Keyblade and sending him flying with a blitz. Deadpool was rolling, took out a black, empty looking canister and tossed it at him. "Surprise!"

Sora wanted to know what it was and met an explosive to his personal, Wade took the chance, sprinted at him and kicked him right in the stomach. Sending Sora rolling and forcing him to heal as Deadpool was dancing to taunt. "I just kicked the main hero off his high horse!" He took out a phone and tried to make a selfie. "Cheeeeese!"

Sora had no idea of how to explain the behavior, yet he felt he wasn't the center of someone's attention anymore, with a little confusion, Sora flung his keyblade like a boomerang as Wade had his finger on the phone's button.

Wack!

Deadpool was knocked out of his taunt, Sora felt a little more in control of his movement, changed his default blade to the Happy Gear and let loose another quick combo, Deadpool rolled away to try one of his many tricks and Sora form changed his blade to mechanical claws, focusing more and more on keeping Deadpool from attacking and tossing him to one of the rocks. Wade was flung, grabbed onto a rock and panted as Sora yelled out. "Come on, this whole fight is stupid!" Deadpool oddly agreed. "It is, but someone is going to click off if they know no one here is going to fight me!" He gave a scream.

"Obligated Cheating!"

Sora blinked. "What?!" He felt his vision shaking and he is feeling his vision flashing red as Deadpool took three of the strange grenades and was ready to toss them. "Hope you saved before this! Heh! Heh!"

Sora rolled out of the way of the explosives and tried to focus on why he was feeling tired, he closed his eyes in a zen and found an odd image of himself, surrounded by a near empty bar that had a hint of green, it was being pushed into the empty, by a three man squad of mini Deadpools, he saw himself trying to avoid the oddly timed explosives and saw to the far left, an list of options, the second to last one, being magic and cura. He raised his hand in the air and shouted. "Heal!" Pulse! The green bar circled around the boys image, it kept flashing red and the Deadpools looked to be pushed, they tried to push back. Sora tried again. "Heal!" Pulse! The bar shoved further left and shook the Deadpools to where they were hanging on. The boy focused and saw himself avoiding the last grenade, he committed to a quick combo on Deadpool and cast one more heal, bringing the green bar to full and knocking the Deadpools off. He closed his eyes and felt himself grounded to reality, Deadpool was seeing his cheating didn't lead to prosperous results and saw Sora was ready to finish the fight. "Whu oh!"

Sora changed the claws to a set of yo-yos, had them detract their blades and used them to smack Deadpool silly, forcing the merc to take one more thing from his pocket, a potion. "Sudden healing!" Pew! He didn't feel that invigorated and stopped. "...Right, someone will get this." He drew out his katanas for a last stand Sora used his yo-yos to wrap them around the blades and pull, disarming Deadpool and finishing the fight. Sora let the swords slide, played around with the yo-yo's to revert it back to a keyblade and saw Deadpool call a time out. "Okay, that's enough. I'm letting you off the hook." He took his phone like device and tossed it to the boy. "Catch!"

Sora caught it and guessed from his own experience. "You've been recording what you've found?" Deadpool nodded and was allowed to pick his swords up. "Bingo, kid. I got my own hunches of what's going on and it isn't looking pretty." Donald sighed. "It never is, so what are you going to do while we meet up with our friends?" Deadpool turned west. "I'll play along with that big rule, keep my mouth shut about it and go see what I can do to keep this city from turning into Detroit. You need to tell the band that they need to see the video, asap."

The four understood and let Wade take off, Sora felt an odd worry, turned on his AR device and started a call. "We found Deadpool and he's found something important. We need to meet up asap." Among the receiving ends of the device, Kairi was the first one to respond. "Me and the girls found something as well, we'll be right over." Followed by Riku's. "Can't talk, found another Endless Spell." Ken's was the more alarming. "We'll get on to that." Blip! Sora turned a knob and enlarged a virtual map, to see where the crew were, something was going on.

Simultaneously.

Kairi was at the peak of a particular conversation that perked Honey Lemon up and interested Go Go. The Princess showed a text involving a schematic for a pretty stylish set of armor. "So, that is what Master Aqua is doing right now. She's making me and the boys our own suit up gear." The oldest woman squeed. "It's going to be amazing once it's finished." Go Go looked at the schematic and asked. "Looks like something out of a video game I saw. How is that going to get done?"

Kairi gestured that she knew the answer, but couldn't really say it. "I can only say that it is a lot more possible than you think." Woof! Woof! She heard a noise she hoped to hear and found that she and the girls reached a particular children's park, a large, lean, black furred dog with a brown fur underbelly, muzzle and paws, was barking at her in curiosity. "A friend of mine, who I suspect is around this city as well, really loves dogs. She has a pretty odd condition that is hard to explain right now, she can only really exists to certain people and it requires someone who sees her to make a connecting link." Go Go guessed. "She was some lab experiment that gotten loose?"

Kairi gasped at the close guess. "None of us really know, but that could be it. An evil man we've been fighting, did that to her and one of the reasons we've came here in the first place is so the band of super heroes, we've been hearing about, learn how to defend themselves and the city when he comes snooping around." "AAAAAAAAH! MONSTERS!" From inside the park, they heard the sound of kids screaming over something, the doberman sniffed the air growled to the play area and barked aggressively, the pedestrian saw a group of young children running out of the slides in fear of their lives and of black creatures wiggling out in chase. The stranger tugged his dog and is making a break for what looked like one of his kids. "Oh crud, oh crud, oh crud!"

Kairi rushed to the scene and drew her keyblade for battle. PEW! PEW! PEW! A swarm of ten pogo shovels, three golden, crackling lanterns and a strange colorful orb, resembling a clown balloon. Kairi took a deep breath and did battle against the weedy shovels, paying heed to the electrical lanterns and the Balloon Clown summoning static balloons to form a loose current. Fling! PWO PWO PWO! A fast yellow disk was flung at the Clown to disrupt it's attack as a rapid firing barrage of chem balls moisturized the air and caused the balloons to float harmlessly. The Clown turned and saw a particular Go Go, suited up and rushing at it like a glistening star, the chem balls fired at the gold beats and unleashed a wrapping of rubber, from a Honey Lemon with a purse turned Gattling Gun.

A rather vast swarm of shadows slithered out of the slide area, like an outbreak of termites. A long side them were five neoshadows. Kairi cringed, felt a particular presence calling to her and closed her eyes to a vision of green. "Let's give em a propah fight!" She opened her eyes and called to the voice. "Give us strength!" PEW! A rift of green and amber opened, letting a particular, savage Orc Shaman through, he shouted. "Wurzzag!"

The older girls were a little surprised by the summon and more so of the escalating swarm. Wurzzag's odd form of light, green and amber did little to answer their questions and the Shaman began to dance a chant. "Ere we go!" Kairi felt a surge of amber course through her body and a strength of green upon her keyblade. The Neoshadows took offense and slithered after Kairi. WOOSH! She slashed at three of them with the precision of a mantis, leaped at them like a fierce lion and made quick work of them, the other two flung at her to try and pin her down.

Kairi clenched the fist of her free hand and punched one of them in the face, causing it to disintegrated. Wurzzag laughed to that as his mask glowed, he raised his hands in the air, screamed like a feral madman and fired a gaze of energy upon the last neo shadow, pelting it back into the void it spawned from. The thirty shadows were next to swarm and Kairi felt she had the confidence to take them on. On an instinct, she stomped the ground and in a sudden, a giant shoe attached to a leg, fell from the sky in a ray of light. POW!

Like a bolt of lightning, the foot stomped half a dozen of the shadows into mist, with an adrenaline boost, Kairi stomped again to vaporize another half a dozen, then another. She felt one more burst of power, itching to come out, stood side by side with the chanting shaman and stomped in sync, a green foot joined a repeated stomping of three and finished off the swarm. Wurzzag flipped in the air and wished Kairi well. "Bash dem darky boys good!" PEW! He vanished and left Kairi to turn to the distracted Clown that lost three of it's lanterns to Honey Lemon and Go Go, the Princess glowed in light and blitz the Clown into oblivion.

With one outbreak averted, Kairi let out a phew and saw that Honey Lemon and Go Go were looking at her with a bunch of questions. The more serious Lady started off. "First, nice work. Second, who the heck was that?" Kairi confessed. "Wurzzag, he's a summon that is kind of like a hologram, but can be made real." Go Go believed it as Honey Lemon noticed someone in the brushes, trying to get away. "Some one else is here!" Go Go turned, saw the person running and was ready to chase him down. "And he isn't running." She started to skate with her wheels and was quickly closing in on a particular, black haired man in a suit and a mohawk. "Oh crud, oh crud, oh cru-" PEW!

Splat! Wrap The thug was caught in web and a rather serious Spiderman was seen hanging on a nearby building, before he leaped to the scene to ask. "Okay, what were you doing in this playground?" Rustle! Rustle! Kairi and a Honey Lemon that picked something up, caught up, the blonde woman was looking at a strange jack in a box that has the Emblem of the Heartless, Go Go recognized the emblem, turned to the thug and looked ready to punch him. "Did you set that up? Do you even know what those things could have done?"

The thug pleaded. "I was only getting paid!" Kairi's AR device picked up and she answered it, hearing Sora with a report. "We found Deadpool and he's found something important." She answered back. "Me and the girls found something as well, we'll be right over." Blip. She felt the horror from Honey Lemon and the barely contained fury from Go Go and Spiderman, she stepped in to interrogate the thug as she heard police sirens. "Who, hired you?"

At a shopping district.

Riku adjusted a wear he's been wanting for a while, a light yellow hoodie jacket that is white underneath, complimented by his black zippered under shirt. On his head, was a large band of white and yellow stripes, covering most of his hair. Wasabi was checking the attire out as Fred proclaimed it as. "A new look to show your journey!" Riku almost laughed to that. "Or it's because a lot of my friends say I should lighten up a bit and there was a little thing to why I wanted this kind of head band. Kairi made friends with some cool people that may have had moments where they've gone on some silly adventures."

Wasabi could relate. "You should have seen the things that were happening in this city a month ago." Riku guessed from the high tech nature of the world. "Wacky super villains? Science projects gone wrong? And I guess, small time things like college kids growing up?"

Fred checked those off. "On the weekly... until two weeks ago." CAREEN! Fling! Half of a car came flying by the street and the city folk were running for their lives. Riku drew his keyblade and signal the guys to go suit up. "We called this!" He ran towards the sight of destruction and saw something underneath a free way bridge, an axe like pendulum the size of a truck, it gave an odd black glow that was replaced by a glow of light blue, just from the presence, Riku couldn't get a real hint of the Spells intentions, just moving through the infinite. The Pendulum, turned to the street and sensed a curiosity, Riku felt danger in front of him and jumped out of the way of the Pendulum's simple swing. He asked. "You're something that existed, in between the realms? Where you go, destruction follows." He was rather impressed by the form and took a crystal. "I think you just need someone who knows how to work with that."

The Pendulum seemed to be listening, it felt the boys inner strength. CLING! CLANK! From the void, dark chains emerged from all around and snared the Pendulum, Riku felt something right above him and side stepped, avoiding a descending dive from a rather vengeful Vanitas. Riku was annoyed and barked. "Hey! I was all set up to take that." Vanitas turned in a cold manner. "Too bad, this thing can make some havoc. It's birth is as sudden as it arrives, yet it lacks the same drive the other Spells got." Riku spun a finger and drew his keyblade. "Whoopie doo, this spell's neither good nor evil. I don't think it even has a specific type, just raw Aether." WOOSH!

Vanitas dashed at Riku to attack him as the chains wrapped around the Pendulum and coalesced with it, engulfing it into a dark form, Riku parried him and knocked him back with a pulse of light, the fiend hissed as the Pendulum was forced into the form of a round head, resembling the angry face of an angry clock, the Pendulum was forced to swing endlessly and gave off an aetherical glow of the void. The Time Killer gave Riku a glare and Vanitas pointed to him. "Well it doesn't matter now, I'm going to do what that toadie couldn't even get right! It's time you life is cut short!"

In the alley way, a blue hooded, goat hoofed figure, who was playing dice with a child that had a noodle bun burger for a head, turned to offense. He had a crystal ready and hissed. "Or, I will write your fate instead." He and Riku heard a rumbling, Vanitas faked out an attack and had the Time Killer rush at Riku. Crumble! A hand of earth, emerged from the ground Vanitas landed on and grabbed him hard, letting loose a black fog that caused the fiend to feel the life squeezing out of him. Giving Riku the chance to side step right, see the Unverse's second face, teleport back to it's position, mid attack and saw it rush at him again. Jump! SLASH!

He dodged, cut into the clock face in sync with a particular, hooded boy with a feathery, halberd like keyblade, stabbing into the Unverses face. The Unversed floated backwards to the force and gave a rasp like roar. Riku had an odd look at the hooded boy, sunglasses and all, and guessed. "Let me guess, Dupmic?" The boy had a look at Riku's attire, paused for a split second and answered. "Yep, this was not how I wanted this to go." The boy felt the voice familiar, although deep and choose to ignore it as he watched Vanitas giving off a chaotic glow and is thrashing, causing the Hand of Death to crack.

The Time Killer fell backwards to the ground and spun horizontally to get a slash. The boys jumped as one, Riku fired fire balls as Dupmic shot steam orbs, getting a cheap hit and watching the Time Killer reset it's attack, hovered side ways and tried to attack again, the boys dived down a landing and saw a charged up plasma shot and a beam of burning ice, shoot the Unversed in the face. Wasabi and Fred were in their costumes, the former being complete confused at the flipping Unversed as the later nerded out. "And now we have a monster vs monster match!" Wasabi looked at Fred. "We don't even know what that is besides that it is a monster. Can we wait until we think of a plan?"

The Hand of Death was nearing a burst as Riku planned it out. "That Unverse merged with a magic Pendulum that can and will cut through anything in it's path and it can reset it's attack." He pointed at a furious Vanitas. "And this punk was behind that." Fred think he understood the plan. "So while we take care of the Time Cutter, you fight the guy with the leash?" Riku gave a thumbs up. "And with that, free the Pendulum so I can get it into one of these." He showed the crystal and applied it to his blade. Dupmic qued the boy. "He's about to break out," Riku understood that, flowed to a lamp post and used it as a way to get a higher ledge as Dupmic stabbed the ground and caused shadows to rush.

Vanitas roared and burst through the hex, with spiked chains lashing out. FLING! Riku flowed to a building and used it to run side ways as Dupmic side stepped, saw the chain coiling around and rolled, feeling the chain graze his shoulder, causing a painful cut and making the boy cringe. Fred shot out a fire ball from his costumes mouth at the Time Killer and drew it towards him, the man in the monster suit saw it rushing at him side ways, jumped on a building, grabbed onto a wall with his claws and taunted. The Time Killer skipped a wind up and was hovering towards Fred's height in a horizontal position, spinning. Fred dropped down, shot a breath of ice in sync to the Unverse cutting into a wall and froze it in place. Giving Wasabi time to rush under the monster, revert his blasters to cutters, high jump and cut into the face.

Vanitas felt something in his shadow, jumped out of the way and saw a geyser of blue energy, shooting familiar soul arrows and pelting him. Riku took the chance to dive down, smashed the fiend in the ground and back flip to split Way to Dawn into an angelic winged sword and a demonic winged sword. He side stepped a returning chain, slashed both swords into it to sever it and let Dupmic high jump to summon a circle that formed four lasers of soul magic, Vanitas flickered on his feet, side stepped the lasers and rushed at the hooded boy, Dupmic snickered, glowed in blue and unleashed a flash of soul energy to force Vanitas back, leaving him exposed to a swift and deadly slashing from Riku. Crack! Crack!

The hooded boy turned to find the Time Killer trying to break out of a frozen hold and stabbed the ground once more, the group erupted into a soul geyser that engulfed the Unverses head and caused it to break apart. PEW! Woosh!

The Pendulum broke from the dark hold and swung free in confusion, flying towards the remains of the car, a couple lamp posts and a neon lit bill board in it's attempt to balance. Dupmic cringed that he might have made things worse, Fred shot a frozen beam at the Pendulum, it shot through the spell and did nothing but caused it to turn backwards. The two super heroes ran out of the way and towards Dupmic, Wasabi shouted. "This is getting out of control!" Riku sent Vanitas flying, turned to see what the problem was, reverted his swords back to a keyblade and was ready to sprit at it. "Dupmic, keep that psycho off me while I catch this spell!" The hooded boy flipped his halberd and rushed at a falling Vanitas, with intention of payback. The psychopath landed on his feet, glowed in dark fire and rushed back. Dupmic parried and was flung, back first, into a lamp post. He felt a rib breaking as Vanitas taunted. "What the hell are you even doing, helping any of these guys? You don't even know them." Dupmic growled, enveloped his blade with hot steam and struck at Vanitas, who parried and was given a face full of steam at point blank range. The fiend cringed from the heat and was smacked in the torso, Vanitas yelped. "Ow!"

He saw his suit with open wounds, steaming and blistering from the cut and enveloped himself in a corridor. "What ever, this whole city's a gold mine for Chaos." Dupmic wanted to call the demon out, felt his injuries, quite major and was feeling them, completely vulnerable to a strange glow of emerald light.

Something crawled on his bleeding cut wound, an emerald insect. It burrowed into the wound and crawled it's way into his broken rib, three more joined in and left two more to lapse onto the bleeding wound. The boy felt a minor pain of a bone being put back where it was and the uncomfortable feeling of insects repairing his flesh. Fred and Wasabi were unnerved by that as Riku wasn't paying attention and talked to someone over the AR device. "Can't talk, found another Endless Spell!" He aimed his blade at the handle of the Pendulum and let loose aetherical tethers to grab the handle of the Spell, drawing it towards him and breaking it down into aether. The crystal kept a clear, if cloudy color as it took in the spell. He had the chance to take the crystal out, turn around and was scared of what he was seeing, Dupmic was beset by a swarm of glowing insects and the hooded boy was more confused than anything. He felt his rib was firmly in and the three insects dug out of the open wound, working together with the two others to close it, at the instant, Dupmic felt rather invigorated and the Life Swarm buzzed off into the cities sky. Riku counted the spells and realized. "Wow, did that thing just eat your injuries?"

Dupmic checked, felt nothing stinging and realized. "I... think it did...and it just got away." Riku honestly didn't mind. "If it's healing people, then I say let it be until we get the chance again. But now we got something more important to share with the guys, but first, who are you?"

Dupmic looked to Fred and Wasabi, who were realizing more is going on and asked. "Where do you want the guys to meet up? Because it's awkward now?" Riku felt an idea and pressed his hand on the AR Device, marking a particular spot and saw someone directing the mark to a place for the blips to get to as soon as possible. "Okay, apparently, Sora wants us to meet up as soon as possible. We can talk then."

Dupmic felt a little relief in a plan working as intended, despite the obstacles, Wasabi signaled they slow down and asked. "But can you let us on the know of what that those things are?" Fred answered. "The Endless Spell? It's sorcery that came to life!" Riku took the lead and thought of how to explain it in a way, those who've known science all their lives, would understand. "The Endless Spells is a kind of otherworldly energy that is made from a particular kind of energy that could be called magic. They are made into a form that embodies the energy and most of the time, they have free will. The Pendulum isn't aligned to anything in particular, so-" Wasabi slowly understood it. "So the energy makes a matter more suited to what it is use to seeing?"

Riku nodded. "Yep and the energy was used for large scale fights, like the one we've fought off weeks ago. Which is why it became a weapon that cuts anything in sight. The crystal contains the matter, breaks it down back into that energy and through a little... processing, that energy gets reused in a more controllable form." Dupmic snickered. "And it just so happens, that one of you guys has the processor in his back pack?" Riku wanted to correct him. "Not right now, he doesn't. Some of the Endless Spells can get really dangerous when in the process and I don't know if it is a good idea to try that out in a narrow space with people, with the Pendulum." Wasabi took the chance to ask. "So what got into those bugs in the first place?"

Dupmic could easily guess of the Life Swarm. "The power we use to heal ourselves and others. The stuff you would call medicine." Fred laughed. "Ha! I love it when it's told like this."

He, Wasabi and Dupmic followed Riku towards the blip. Leaving the hooded figure to cease his plan with a deep. "Hmmmm?" The Noodle Burger Boy felt the ominous hum suspicious. "You're thinking that this city isn't big enough for all of us?" The figure nodded and revealed a beak. "And an old acquaintance of mine might have finally changed his fate. This changes some plans." He request. "Take me, to your master. We have a common goal."

At a rather ordinary street, leading to a University.

Ken was impressed by what Hiro told him. "So you build that Baymax all on your own and you all made your own gear." He smiled. "That is so cool! You can say me and the guys were preparing for a project like that, back home." He took his phone to find an image he was giggling over as Hiro had a compliment back. "You think that's cool, then who over built that arm of yours, really knows their bionics. People wish they can make those things, function so close like a real arm."

Ken's giggling stopped at the mention. "It along with many others back home, were built by some really cool techs." He tried to hide his saddening mode. "They would have liked to hear that." Hiro wanted to ask what the tone was for, realized Ken implied the technical geniuses behind them were deceased and held off from asking. Ken answered the unspoken question. "Something bad happened to them and they aren't around anymore. One of them was a jerk and the other is use to a lot of fighting, but it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have had the strength to be where I am."

Hiro took a deep breath. "My brother was a genius who's done a lot to keep me out of trouble, he wanted to help people. That's why we do the same, he would have liked that." Ken guessed Hiro has a very similar story to what happened to the friends he and the Guardian's of Light have made. "I'll bet he's liking that you guys do what you can for the city. In a way, that helps keep him around, even when it doesn't seem like that." Hiro slowly smiled to that. "Through Baymax and through all of us."

He noticed something off behind Ken, on a distant building, there was a hooded figure looking directly at him. Ken was oblivious and perked. "So let's keep the memories, even if it hurts." He cheered. "To technology!" Hiro didn't think Ken should be cheering in the situation he is in, Ken looked like he heard something from behind Hiro.

From the one armed boys point of view, he saw Xion at the crosswalk, looking up at something and giving a psst. She silently spoke. "Behind you." Ken turned around and his AR device picked up on something on the distant tower, a man in a black coat that realized he's been spotted, he disappeared into the darkness on the instant and Ken's cheering turned into a burst of paranoid anger. He puffed his cheeks to contain it and heard Sora talking in the device. "We found Deadpool and he's found something important, we need to meet up asap." Ken answered back with a bitter. "We'll get on to that." He saw a blip towards a the western center of the city and turned to a Hiro who know something was going on, in the corner. Xion gave a serious scowl and Ken warned him in a silent. "Find somewhere, to hide."

Xion gave a silent OK and took off, he signed as Hiro guessed. "I'm going to need to suit up?" Ken nodded. "Yep, those creeps we've talked about, are here and I'm being stalked again. We'll tell you guys why that's important." Hiro took off into a convenient alley way and gave Ken the freedom he needed to scream in anger, he drew his blades with his guard ready and was ready to attack the first stranger who lays a hand on him.

In a few moments, Hiro returned, suited up and was seeing Ken going into a war like mood, he cringed. "Easy, easy! It won't be that much of a deal once we get back to the guys." Ken agreed with that, even as his expression wasn't changing. "Yeah and our plan to keep that issue on a low profile has went up in smoke. Hiro, if we start talking in weird stuff, then we need you guys to keep a pretty big secret." Hiro made the promise as he noticed strange twenty Heartless showing up, floating cloaks with top hats and cross bows, Ken felt the presence and without much of a warning, leaped to the foes behind him, in a blaze of fire.

At the Hammer Heart Arena.

Exrirsa and Ana watched a particular battle, unfold in an burning, volcanic arena. The gang from Twilight Town were trampled, crushed and beaten with an inch of their lives by a particular Bloodthirster with tattered wings, two giant axes and a portion of his face that was burned off to the bone. Lea and Lauraim were the last two making something of a stand and the Bloodthirster roared in complete rage. "HAAAAAAAAATE!"

The two felt their blood boiling to a burst and the arena reverted back to what it was. Lea's legs shook and he fell on his knees, Lauriam fell on his rear, Medy quickly cornered himself to a wall and was blabbering and even Isa was curled up in a fetal position, the rest of the gang were either stunned in horror or in frustration. Exrirsa was confused by the foe. "I've never heard of this daemon." Ana did however and asked. "How did Aqua learn that name?"

She and Exrirsa jumped off the rafter to help pick the gang back up, Lea refused and asked, completely unnerved. "That... we...we're still going to try and fight this?" The fearful tone that replaced overconfidence, answered his own question, Exrirsa advised as the gang slowly got up. "It would take many to bring a greater daemon down and I believe you learned why being in close combat with a Bloodthirster is a suicidal tactic. You've at least understood why we cannot allow these abominations to roam upon the material world."

Elrena cringed. "Those monsters are nothing but murder and rage. Someone getting triggered, that badly when one is watching them, would mean that showing up for real." Dorlu guessed with a lingering thought. "And they never fight alone."

Exrirsa nodded. "They never do and the ones I was told of have their own horrors to share. Archaon's presence and his influence upon Xehanort, would make the arrival of a Greater Daemon, a certainty. It's only a matter of when." She raised a finger. "But, I believe that the daemon you battled was something of the special variety. Pick another in the variety and show the team work you had before you made that error in tactics."

Medy chose to believe that they simply had bad luck in the daemon they picked. "Ha, yeah. We need to be far away from that guy. Easy if you think about it." Isa snapped out of his fetal position and quickly got up. "You mean shoot him back to hell?" Medy nodded to that as Lauriam thought more into it. "And that is something we lack. But I think we have the means to best the others in the selection." Step! Step!

Exrirsa and Ana heard foot steps and saw Baldred bringing the Wayfinder Duo in. The Undead apologized. "I didn't mean to intrude, but I might have brought up something we've talked about." Ven was seeing the group recovering from a beat down and asked. "Did we come at a bad time?"

Exrirsa shook her head and signaled the gang that they wait. "Do not start a match, just yet. I wish to learn something." Most of the Gang had a combined phew, the Adeptas Sororitas asked the undead. "What did you bring up?"

Baldred answered with memories of Aqua flinching. "Ven and I were talking with Aqua about some of the ordeals we had to deal with to get the knowledge of the Job Class. One of the gang members talked about a particularly dangerous man that we should deal with one day." Aqua nodded. "Braig."

Exrirsa remembered the name. "You know of him? For all I know, he is still at large and is eager to commit more crimes." Aqua gave Exrirsa a recap. "I honestly don't know what's he's up to, anymore. One moment, he was trying to get a keyblade and he worked with Xehanort. The next thing I heard, was that his nobody was apart of Organization XIII and worked for the same man's nobody. Then Braig sneaked into the castle when me and Ken were exploring a memory of Baldred's world, if to try to get rid of me. Finally he was in Pandemonium on board a nightmare of the Planet Killer for something that has NOTHING to do with the Dark Seeker's plans."

Isa overheard and took his chances to approach. "Braig's been in service to himself and is going along for the ride on Xehanort's plans, when it suits him." He thought, with both confusion and concern. "What else was in the illusions that were so important?"

Aqua shrugged. "One of my students had to fight through an illusion of the Keyblade War. We had some friend dig up how that and to a greater extent, how everything with Xehanort, started. I think Braig is interested in getting the Keyblade for a means and it is that means, I'm worried about."

Elrena joined in the conversation. "If that means, has everything to do with our current problem with the Chaos bozos stepping in, we can't afford to risk Braig mucking up our plans to get things back to normal." She asked with some outrage. "How does that illusion, connect with your students?"

She snapped her fingers. "We all know Kairi is a Princess of Heart, who's radiant light use to be apart of the X Blade. So that's one ancient clue." Aqua corrected her on a well thought, but inaccurate guess. "Except, she wasn't the one who fought that illusion, Ken was. Since that crucible got bugged by the Chaos gods, we've didn't take any chances, assumed that it was one of them trying to mess with us and tried to get some real info."

Elrena flinched at the name Ken as Ven voiced his own observation. "That's the kind of stuff that explains why Ken's been exposed to so much Darkness. It's kind of amazing how he's still kept it together." Elrena had her turn to correct him. "For now!" She realized something, folded her arms and argued with herself. "Uh uh. I refuse to believe that the space elf was onto something." Aqua blinked, knew who Elrena spoke of and asked. "Ken's told me about the Eldar that tried to kill him and you, what was their deal in the first place?"

Elrena answered that with more anger building up. "It was a bogus prophecy about a black heart and despite the kid proving her wrong, she came to the conclusion that the Forces of Chaos would butt into his life at every turn and turn him into a problem."

Aqua and Ven gasped, the Keyblade Master was blinking rapidly at a maternal worry and her voice became deeper. "The exact same thing they did to a man named Diederick. Aka, Archaon." The name caused Elrena and Isa to flinch in horror as Aqua continued. "This is also the same thing Xehanort has done to a friend of ours a long time ago, and you can guess what he was doing, ever since Sora and the others took his halves down. The only reason the Chaos gods haven't chased Kairi as well, is because her heart cannot be corrupted, but if the others fall, they will target her mind and leave her heart vulnerable for a pawn of theirs to take."

Exrirsa scoffed. "Typical and Braig has sensed that your other student has ordeals to help pick at?" The Keyblade Master nodded and advised the group. "There is a world that became the Keyblade Graveyard. I think that is one of the places Braig is interested in the most. Shut that man down, so he will leave my kids alone."

Elrena's lips puckered to the word kids. "Oh my." Exrirsa turned to the group and issued an order. "You've heard your mission. Hunt that man down, for Braig is much more useful to you alive, and I will not show that mercy to him." Isa agreed with that. "He owes us answers, a lot of answers."

Dorlu agreed with that and felt more determined to get the brutal training regiment over with. "And if his allies are the foes we are seeing. We must understand his game or we will lose."

Even Medy stopped shaking in his shoes and bit his tongue to swallow his cowardice. " I knew we were signing up for Hell." Lea dryly laughed to that. "Tough break, we've allowed most of this to happen in the first place, someone's got to put up with the worst of the mess" He put his thumb to Ven, Aqua and Baldred. "While they stop the guys that are still causing this."

Exrirsa saw the gang listened and clapped. "And it is through this acknowledgement that brings you, closer to salvation. Aqua, Ven, is there anything else you would like to share?" Aqua and Ven shook their heads, the Keyblade Master asked. "There is something I want to talk to Baldred about, but I'm liking what you guys are doing now. Keep up the good work." Exrirsa hmmphed as Dorlu had his turn to pick the greater Daemon, between a Bloodthirster, Lord of Change and a Keeper of Secrets.

They let the Arena's owners, leave with the Undead and get out of hearing range. With the latent urgency, Baldred asked. "I know that armor is going to take some time before it is considered ready. But with a Pure heart in our ranks and another close mine among us, those mad men won't wait for them to get stronger." Aqua realized she let some of her inner feelings slip and confessed. "And there is no single person, who can handle that pressure forever. Terra was lead down a dark path and did so many stupid things, like trusting people who were obviously going to take advantage over him and have him help with their own vile plans. By the time he came close to realizing this, Xehanort ended up forcing his way into his heart and so much of a disaster came when he took control. The amnesia only slowed it down. Now some phoney baloney prophecy that might have been cooked up by Tzeentch, is pointing the arrow that of my students is suppose to go down the same path Archaon went to. That maniac gave in and forsake everything in his heart, out of hatred."

She felt her chest tightening and put her hand on it. "I'd sooner go into the Realm of Darkness and would try to tear the gods a new one, if it would keep them away from my kids." She was light headed. "It takes a great strength, to know what that evil offers, to have to put up with them forcing you down a dark path and tell them, no. It takes a great strength, to protect another from that evil, when it refuses to leave them alone." Ven patted Aqua on the back. "The problem is it keeps coming to where one of those hearts isn't going to take it anymore and go down a path that becomes it's own kind of Dark." He looked at Baldred. "Something, one of us knows of."

Baldred nodded and asked Aqua. "And what is going to happen, when that Heart of Light and that Darkened Heart, see what this evil is doing to you as you protect them?" He answered. "Love is what is going to happen." Ven agreed with that and assured Aqua. "And they're not going to let this evil hurt you. The problem is one of those hearts is going to settle for complete annihilation to make sure it doesn't hurt you."

Baldred raised a finger. "But is that wrong? There are, wicked people out there, who won't change and if they won't stay out of our lives by choice, they will be removed from our lives." Aqua was shaking her head. "No and that is why our hearts are at our strongest, together. That's the formula for why they;ve stood against the Chaos and why they'll do it again." She chuckled to that. "I guess one day, I'll be wanting to see that strength for myself and there is only one way to do it."

Ven flinched at the vision of a straightforward, family fight. "But Aqua, even if any of us could beat you, none of us want to." A Moonfang arrived with a Mickey on his back as the Stormcast corrected Ven. "Lad, she's a Keyblade Master and she's only gotten stronger. The problem is her power is being spent on making sure the rest of us can keep up and so we can smash the Forces of Chaos together. Wars aren't won by one person simply beating something up, they are won by making sure your enemy is not fighting you anymore and that either requires them seeing things your way or if it is like the foes we fight, making sure the enemy has nothing to hold on to." She shrugged as Mickey got off, thinking he heard enough. "If we showed you what we've become and if you showed all of us what you've become, then it would be like helping each other."

That was something Aqua laughed to. "The power of Ohana." She and the group left Moonfang to keep watch and went to the castle. They opened the door and found Stitch cornering a Zurg toy in a hall way. "Grr!" Ven yelled out. "Stitch, put that back, it's just a toy." Stitch turned to Ven and blabbered something the boy understood. "It's his room, he can do what ever he wants in it."

Ana agreed with that and remembered. "But didn't the lad lock his room up? He rarely plays with the toy, but he keeps it safe." She was confused and asked the alien. "Unless you are lying about this, something is going on in this castle." Stitch nodded and pointed to the hall way. "Kairi's room! Kairi's room!"

Ven and Aqua gasped, the keyblade master asked. "That toy showed up in Kairi's room?!" She and Ven looked to each other and went to investigate with Stitch, leaving Baldred to look confusingly at Ana and Mickey, the Undead groaned. "I can never understand these worlds." Mickey felt the feeling mutual. "This is one of the reasons the World Order was established. It's like stepping into a cartoon, and then the folks over here will think your the cartoon as well." Baldred raised his hands in the air and gave up on making any sense. "I don't even know what a cartoon is and I'm agreeing with you." Ana raised an eyebrow under her helmet and asked. "But we are being forced to discard that, why?"

At the back side of a building, that is with in an alley way.

Sora, Donald, Goofy and Baymax waited for a couple minutes. Kairi and the girls arrived with some alarming news, Go Go spoke with a scowl that looked like she wanted to beat someone up. "Some punks were releasing Heartless on a playground with kids and we got the word that the Crime boss made a hideout at the pier!" Honey Lemon nodded. "And Spiderman's heading there right now. What did you find?" Sora showed a phone. "Deadpool gave this to us and told us that we need to see what's in it as soon as possible. What's at the pier?" Honey Lemon answered that with concern. "There shouldn't be anything, but apparently, our crook is making a carnival."

At the mention of a carnival, Riku, Fred, Wasabi and a familiar, hooded boy, arrived. Riku reported. "It's no coincidence that our crook is involved with Vanitas, who showed up in the city to make trouble when an Endless Spell showed up. Dupmic over here, helped us get that under control." Goofy wondered what was going on as Baymax blipped and shined a news report. "We interrupt your scheduled program, to deliver this breaking news," The group saw a screen of a pier with a circus, the sight of clown like Heartless that Kairi recognized, confirmed trouble. "Moments ago, a mysterious circus has appeared in the eastern district of the City and has become an outbreak to numerous, unidentified creatures. Witnesses describe losing sight of victims during the mayhem. Many have also said they heard, strange music in the vicinity of the disappearances."

Dupmic didn't find that a coincidence. "Alright, since I seen kids play at playgrounds, who do we know that is with that psycho and makes his habit of targeting children?" Sora, Donald and Goofy slowly tapped their feet, put a couple pieces together and remembered a particular Coachman. The trio gasped and Sora in particular shouted. "Oh no! Not that guy again!" Dupmic blinked and cringed as Go Go guessed. "He's not only a bad guy, but he's a sicko that targets kids for a living?"

Fling! Jiminy jumped out of Sora's pocket, started the group and answered firmly on the boys shoulder. "And that's just the bare minimum." Go Go sighed. "Child trafficker?" Riku's eyes widened to the quick guess as the group were more horrified. "Yes and that's why he needs to get taken down and out of the city."

They heard the distant sound of people screaming, fighting and the screaming calming down. The last to arrive was a cautious Hiro and a Ken who looked relieved by the crew. "Oh thank goodness. You want to hear my report?" Sora guessed. "Those guys are after you again?" Ken corrected him. "Yes, but I was being stalked and no latter when Hiro and Xion help me notice, a bunch of heartless come out of the blue. They attacked everyone that was in the area, to get to me." Hiro gave Ken credit. "He took care of the monsters along the way without getting, too carried away."

Riku raised his arms like he gave up seeing a positive beyond fighting. "So, our guys are stalking you, is having Heartless attacks near areas for children and Vanitas wants to make this place a playground of chaos. Him, Xehanort and the Coachman." Ken cringed, saw Dupmic in the area and his chest was becoming cold. "And Xion is out there alone!"

Dupmic agreed with how bad that gotten. "Oh come on, I got to leave and get her to safety now?" Ken nodded. "Until we get rid of the Coachman and de escalate the problem. You're both in danger as long as he's around." Riku found that an annoying truth as Hiro got on Baymax and thought of a plan. "Alright, calm down. It's obvious he's expecting us, so we need to know what we're dealing with beyond heartless." Sora shivered. "Daemons, if it's Nurgle, you don't want to get cut by them, if it's Slaanesh, they're fast and sharp."

Dupmic added his own input. "It's so not subtle, so Tzeentch is out of the question and I don't see any puss either for it to be Nurgle." Hiro pressed a couple buttons and laid out the plan. "So, Slaanesh, anything more?" Kairi nodded. "If it looks like something you really want, it's a trap. They are not natural and they're sadistic. Watch out for anything with crab claws."

With that, Riku asked Dupmic. "Go find Xion, get her somewhere safe and we'll talk about your thing by the evening. Deal?" The mysterious boy wanted to punch something. "I planned this all out and I still can't get it over with."

Ken approached his friend and put his hands on his shoulders. "Now's not a good time, once we make the good time happen, we'll have all the time in the world." He looked him in the eyes. "Okay." Dupmic took a deep breath, closed his eyes behind the sunglasses and exhaled. "...Okay." He simply walked off and looked like he was holding off crying, he tried to tough it out and ran.

Sora felt bad the mysterious friend. "We need to help him get that over with, what ever it is." Hiro was ready to lead the team out. "We'll have him meet us at the hideout when this is over. Come on, let's go!" The band agreed and took off, Ken felt someone looking at him and turned to find Riku wanting a word, the silver haired teenager looked him in the eyes and asked. "Do you know what that guy's problem is?"

Ken knew it was about Dupmic and listed a few. "A few, he might have lied to me a lot about where he came from and it took Xion to make him start telling me the truth and everything he is hiding, is under the hood. It would be better if he tells you and shows you, it looked like he was about to do it to and finally be free of Ahriman." Riku flinched. "Ahriman?!" He grabbed Ken by the collar and was about to lift him. "How long did you know that?!" Ken calmly answered. "Right before Garland did his time loop attack. A some of of us knew they ran away from Ahriman once Xion told us."

Riku lessened his grip. "...And they were the ones who saved our hides a couple days later." Ken blinked, slowly remembered certain things and was looking pale, Riku noticed and asked. "Was there something Xion told you that you didn't tell us?" The one armed boy nodded. "And it took me until just now, to realize what's what. You found any clues when Dupmic talked to you?"

Riku nodded and deepened his voice. "Is this enough of a clue?" Ken's mouth dropped at the near identical voice and nodded, he pleaded. "When he finally shows it, could you please not kill him! It took him a while, but he's finally started to do good for others." Riku cringed in a depressing memory. "I already did that once and I believe that he is trying to change." He tried to suppress it. "Come on, we got to catch up." Ken used Cadia's Light to form jet wings. "We got a city to save." The wings ignited and Riku readied to leap. "Yeah."

Woosh!

At a Pier of Delights.

Spiderman web sling a swarm of equine like heartless that have barbed tails as Deadpool was back to back with him and shot at the strange, slender clowns that ballet with spiked heels. Deadpool giggled. "This is like old times, huh Spidey?" Spiderman guessed so. "Heh, I seen worse from Mephisto." Something slithered from the corner of their eyes and they turned to find a lightly purple, feminine, crab clawed entities, one resembled a woman with a mixture of red and blonde hair that annoyed Spiderman, the other looked like a thin, skeletal nightmare in a bra and spooked Deadpool out. "Crab claws? Ah hell, no!"

Spiderman was ready to round house kick the daemonette that realized a plan didn't work, she and her partner shrieked and sprinted after the super heroes. PEW! PEW! PEW! A sudden rain of hunny bombarded the daemonettes into oblivion as Baymax and Hiro co lead the charge into the swarm of Dark Fiends. Goofy and Go Go charged into the clowns, shield first as Honey Lemon shot a couple chem balls with a strange liquid that splashed all over the clowns, smelled funny and exposed them to a freeze attack from Donald, turning them into glaciers. Letting Goofy and Go Go finish smashing them to pieces.

Kairi arrived with a spear head into the disrupted and familiar Dark Fiends and gave Fred and Wasabi time to charge in, the man in the monster suit shot ice beams as the man in green shot charged plasma projectiles. The arrivals quickly finished off the swarm and Sora landed with a sweat. "Phew." He turned to Spiderman and Deadpool. "Didn't think you'd be here that quickly."

Spiderman tried not to laugh in a serious moment. "What can we say, jumping into danger is a specialty of ours." "My, my, even the professionals fall into that habit." A purple mist of energy formed in front of the circus tent and a large, pale white chariot with a spinning blade in the front middle and a larger spinning blade in the back, driven by four daemonettes on strange steeds, slowly rode from the mist. Riding the center of the chariot was a daemonette with upward curved horns and two, three tailed whips. Go Go wasn't amused. "You're seriously using a lawn mower." The daemonettes gave a haunting, noble woman's laugh as the the Herald took offense. "Do not think this is a hellflayer!"

She cracked her whips, drove her daemonette minions into an enticed precision and readied to order something, as something wiggled under the chariot in eldritch tendrils, the Herald was a little too focused on having the chariot mow at the heroes as the tendrils burst, sent the Chariot aside and leaped in mid air as a humanoid boy with spiky hair. Leaving it exposed to a rather swift entry of wind and fire, resembling a missile. BOOM!

The chariot was blown to smithereens, the daemonettes vanished in purple mist and the Herald looked rather humiliated as she disappeared. Smoke cleared and someone back flipped, with jet like wings turning into a certain keyblade and a particular boy standing where rubble should been. Ken landed behind the group with a wave of hello as Riku crouched in front of the group, pulled and looked like he was coming off an adrenaline high. "Phew, that was a good aim." He had a smirk at Ken, who scratched the back of his head. "When it doubt, become the missile!"

Sora had a strange scent in his nose and noticed the eldritch thing ready to crawl into the tent, Sora called to it. "Hey, wait!" The thing stopped and Sora approached to have a closer look, it looked like his shadow, if with red eyes, Kairi, Donald and Goofy grouped up, saw the thing with red eyes and felt it's familiar form a give away to something, yet they did not feel compelled to stop the moment. Riku hummed, turned, saw what Sora was approaching and flinched. "How did that get past us?" Ken had a look and saw the familiarity. "That's Shadey. Xion must have sent him after figuring out who's around here."

Fred and Deadpool look to each other, like it was an odd twist to something. Sora recognized the scent, lowered his free hand and asked. "So this was where you went off to? Keeping your friends safe, no matter what?" Shadey had a sniff and looked like it was a little repulsed, like it knew it wasn't a natural thing of the world. Sora took a deep breath. "You going somewhere else, doesn't change that you and me were one. You're friends must have taken pretty good care of you." Shadey nodded without hesitation and Sora thought. "We're dealing with one of the most evil people out there and he makes me mad too. How about we work together, like old times?"

The Shaded thing looked to be gasping, was shaking a bit to what he thought was a suggestion and felt a slight gleam from the Keyblade, it sparked inspiration. Shadey enveloped himself into energy and flowed to Sora's free hand, the spiky haired boy felt something in his grip and held, Shadey took the form of a Keyblade of Shadows, a blade resembling the Kingdom Key, if as a shadow.

Deadpool clapped. "Hey, nice way to make the excess your buddy." He turned the amazement into a dimming mood, turned to the group who were either confused or proud of Sora. "Alright, I saw some sleaze bag in a red coat walk in there, before everything went to hell. That was when all the heartless started to fly into this stink show. So, who's going to tell me not to shot him?"

Kairi sighed and felt like she was about to sign a death warrant. "What if I told you that the Coachman is a child trafficking slime ball. that has attacked our friends before. I'm not going to stop you if you get to him first." Spiderman flinched to the news. "Yeesh, so there was a bigger reason he chose that place." The masked super hero was contemplating if he should allow Wade to get his hands dirty as Ken spoke. "Deadpool's the one that would do the deed, but I think the rest of us would have better ideas."

The band of Big Hero 6 envisioned a life sentence in a maximum security prison and Kairi envisioned a more magical prison. "You're right about that." Hiro cracked his fingers, jumped off of Baymax and lead in. "Alright guys, let's take this guy down and figure out what to do with him before Deadpool does."

Sora nodded to that and was the first to follow Hiro in, the inside of the tent was a strange tapestry of dark purple and pale white. Sitting on a chair, overlooking a rather substantial amount of hearts being fed into a corridor, was a Coachman smoking his pipe and ordering the heartless dragging the hearts in. "Come on, keep them coming, that scientist would give me a spot in the castle if I show him how easy it is to corrupt those brats." Sora felt triggered and gave a battle pose that was not unlike Roxas. The Coachman felt something arrived, turned, gave a rosey cheek smile and clapped. "Took ya long enough to realize who's been playing the ring master ere."

Emerging from underneath him, was a steam work, mechanized donkey of a heartless, with a saddle of a victorian table. It had an aura of soot and a hooves of salt stones. The Coachman formed a sinister scowl and drew out a whip with his right hand. "Let's get this over with."

He flung a whip to the side of the group and caused a rift to open, letting out a particular, great blade wielding, Keeper of Secrets that was looking for vengeance upon Sora, Donald and Goofy. "You've escaped my claws once, you will not get lucky again." Baymax aimed a fist at the Keeper of Secrets that sprinted at the spiky haired boy. "Daemon, detected! Proceeding to repel."

The fists, wrist ignited like a rocket and fired at the daemon's chest, knocking it a couple feet back and forcing it to push. Hiro looked at the daemon and at the heartless, he suggested to the Keybearers and the Kings Guard. "You guys take the Heartless on. I think we got better chances at the big daemon." Riku cringed and wanted to advise against that. "Sora and Kairi told me about those claws, they'll tear you apart."

Deadpool took out two assault rifles and marched to the Daemon. "But this will keep me from pressing one of these at Jolly Yule Man's skull before you get the chance at keeping a moral code and I think Spidey can slow hir down too." Spiderman turned to him and asked. "Huh?!" Honey Lemon felt that was a good plan. "If we keep this thing busy breaking loose, we can take the daemon down, bit by bit." Go Go smirked to her partner. "It's the best one we got."

The Keeper of Secrets looked infuriated and thrust her claws to flip the fist back. "You are nothing but insects, before me!" It sprinted to the groups personal and was shot in the eyes with web from a Spiderman that corrected hir. "Technically, I'm more of an arachnid!"

Fred laughed to that and breathed a stream of ice at the blinded Daemon, Wasabi gave the Guardians of light the que to go confront the Coachman. Hiro jumped onto Baymax's back in approval of the overall plan. "Alright, don't let the Daemon get to us!" Deadpool interpreted that as something else as he walked close to the daemon. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The Daemon's hide soaked most of the bullets and it unleashed a magical slash at the heroes, caused a spike of pain and with a gaze of eyes, caused Honey Lemon to feel a little drowsy in a sudden, it approached Deadpool with a stoic expression and slashed at him.

The mercenary was sliced at the chest, jumped, threw a rifle at hir and took out his katana, cutting into the daemon's chest for payback. Go Go took her chance, flung one of her shields at the daemon's face like a boomerang, cause it and dashed to the daemons side to circle around it. "Slow poke!" The daemon turned hir face at the blunt of the damage, impaled Deadpool with one of hir talons and took it as a dare. Stab! Wasabi took it as his chance to stab the Daemon in the leg with a plasma cutter as Fred fired an ice beam at the unoccupied leg.

The daemon flung Deadpool at Go Go and in a ripple, pulled hir foot out of the ice. Go Go side stepped a bleeding Deadpool that flipped a landing and watched the daemon sprint after her. She quickly ducked backwards to avoid the sword slash, rolled to avoid the claws and used her wheel shield to block a clawing of a sinister talon. She smirked at a taunt as Baymax sucker punched the Daemon's face, gave two precise knuckles to the Daemon's neck. The Keeper of Secrets slashed hir sword at Baymax, sent the duo flying to cloth and saw Honey Lemon snapping out of the stupor, the Daemon snapped hir fingers. "This is embarrassing."

Snap!

Honey Lemon felt an immediate danger, turned around and saw a rift of moaning delights open near her, materializing a band of ten daemonettes that were eager to rend the woman's flesh, the woman yelped, pressed a couple buttons and tossed out a chem ball at the charging daemons, forming an elastic wall of rubber to slow them down and run to safety, she pressed another button to make her purse spit out a yellow chem ball. "Have a little sulfur for that!" Fling! Poof! A cloud of yellow mist surrounded the rubber and caused to retract on the climbing Daemons, crushing six of them into dust and making the horde a manageable four. Fred heard the noise, turned and spun to the daemonettes into an frostfire tornado, finishing them off.

Hiro had Baymax fly over to Deadpool, aim a hand and cause a spray nozzle to spring from his wrist. "You require, some medical care." Spray! A pink mist was blown to Deadpool's closing wound, dulling the pain and easing the bleeding, the Merc felt a little better and watched Spiderman and Wasabi try to avoid the blade and claws. "That's a little better." He put his other rifle away and took out his second katana. "Hey, grouchy wheels, you're thinking what I'm thinking?" Go Go sparked her wrist wheel and ordered. "You shout and I'll cut."

Deadpool snickered and sprinted at the half distracted Daemon. "Double cutter, combo!" The Daemon turned to him and parried him with hir blade. "For me!" S/he readied to impale Deadpool with hir left crab claw.

SPLAT!

Web covered it and latched onto a floor, stopping the attack. PUNCH! Wasabi leaped at the Daemon's back with his plasma blades with a battle cry. "Make that a triple cutter!" The Daemon was impaled from the back, screamed and was cut into other claw hand by Deadpool, the mercenary, severed it with a rather sharp katana blade and saw Go Go rushing at hir, with a wheel blade aimed for hir neck. SLASH! With that blow, the Keeper of Secret's head came off, the body broke down into the energies of Chaos. S/he sighed in boredom. "Not to a bunch of children." Poof! With victory achieved, the group wanted to celebrate and heard the sound of a dinosaur ramming into something. The feat could wait.

Simultaneously

Sora and the crew stood before the Work Mule and it's wicked rider, the spiky haired boy had a rather serious air as the Coachman was paying more attention to the super heroes fighting a Greater Daemon. "Idiots." Sora growled. "Hey, we're over here! These guys took down the Forces of Chaos before, they'll do it again." Riku felt the air and believed it, he had a couple words for the villain. "You're going to be leaving this city, one way or another." The Coachman laughed to that as his Work Mule brayed. "Oh most certainly, but not before I get my due."

He cracked the whip and the Work Mule sprinted to the group to kick them down, Goofy and Donald were knocked across a forming barrier as Sora and Riku rolled left and Kairi and Ken rolled right, the Work Mule reared towards the older boys, stomped stones from the ground and kicked them at the duo, Sora and Riku looked up, found a wooden horizontal poll, high jumped to it and found their opening for an attack. Sora swung himself and dived down at the Coachman as Riku dropped, blade downward. The older boy speared the Work Mule in the skull as the Coachman formed a barrier to shield himself from the full force swing, the villain tried to counter with his whip. Sora hovered left and smashed through the barrier, he used both his keyblade and Shadey to bash the villain in the head. The spiky haired boy flung Shadey and watched the blade shaped creature carve into the villain in rapid speeds.

The Coachman took a whistle and blew it at the duo's ears, causing them to fall off of a trashing heartless. Ken formed a burning ring and qued Kairi to jump behind it, the Princess enveloped the ring with a star and aimed her blade to fire a ray of star energy at the Work Mule. Doing rather significant damage, the heartless looked to the sibling like duo and brayed a super sonic boom. Kairi flipped from the damage as Ken was rolling, the one armed boy sprinted right on all fours and glowed Firekeeper's Wish, he felt a strange sensation in his lungs. Kairi flew left and flung her blade at the heartless like a boomerang as Riku and Sora jumped off. Pow! Ken breathed out toxic mists and felt his idea forming, he looked upon Firekeeper's Wish and breathed more of the mist in the blade, causing it to become yellow with a green smoke. The Mule thrashed and kicked wildly to get the boys far away, Sora and Riku made a sprint to Kairi as the heartless tried to rush them, Donald and Goofy shook off their daze, saw the fight ensuing and saw the Coachman giving the orders. The Mage infused the Knights Shield with fire, Goofy readied a throw. "Heads up fellas!"

Fling!

The shield of fire was flung and hit the Coachman in the head, the Mule caught on fire and became purple, it's charging changed to flinging fire balls all around. Ken felt his plan was more than doable, he pressed both of his blades together to merge the flame with the Lasgun and pulled the trigger. In the moment, a barrage of yellow fire balls were launched at Mule.

Boom! Boom! Boom! The older teenagers watched the fire make contact and burst green smoke. The Mule brayed like made and turned to the one armed boy who watched it breath in the smog. The villain had a whiff of the smog and coughed. "What the devil are you putting in that thing?"

Ken's eyes gave a strange glow of emerald green and he charged up again, the Mule charged at the boy that side stepped left in a glide and held both blades together for a slash of burning yellow flame, hitting the Mule once more and causing it to hack and droll. Ken inhaled, aimed his blades straight and breathed through them, letting loose a stream of fire, much like the breath of a dragon. The strange infusion wore off and Ken made a run to the group. "Alright guys it's all yours."

He and Sora had a strange tink between blades, Firekeeper's Wish to the Kingdom Key, Ken blip his tongue silly and Sora gave an awkward smile of his own silly. Riku realized that was a high five and Kairi put her hand close to her chest. "Prismy, give us that last push!" Glimmer!

In a flash, a large Ceratoid with a prism frill, appeared and gave a roar, Kairi jumped on and told Sora and Riku. "Get on, we're finishing this fight." The boys didn't have time to argue and got on the dinosaur, Kairi felt light to the frill and caused it to shine rays of light at the intoxicated Mule. Kairi gave a battle cry and the Ceratoid charged, impaling the Work Mule with horns of light, Riku made the sprint and dive on the Mule's head for a finisher as Sora jumped high, saw the Coachman blinded by the smoke and rushed at him to combo him, he knocked him in the air and tossed Shadey in the air to let it unleash a barrage of dark projectiles, the Coachman was sent rolling to the ground as the Mule released a captive heart and dissolved.

The circus, slowly faded in Darkness. Shadey burst from his key like form and took the form of Sora with many dark tendrils, the boy ordered the thing. "Shadey, that's enough!" The shadow creature stopped in an instant and hovered, Kairi got off of the Ceratoid as Riku landed next to Sora and noticed something pooling under the Coachman, a corridor, Riku growled. "You got to be kidding me." The Coachman shook from the injuries and was letting himself sink as he watched Big Hero 6 finish off the Daemon, he gritted his teeth. " Well, no matter. I'm only but one of the crime lords stopping by for a visit. They're getting what they need to really make a show stopper out of this city."

Deadpool realize the crook was getting away, took something and approached as the Coachman was sinking quick, the villain mockingly. "Toddles!" Deadpool pulled a pin and tossed something. "Hey, ass hole! We're not done with you." Fling!

The teenagers and the Kings guard saw a black grenade fly into the Coachman's hand as the man sink, he had a brief moment of shock as the corridor consumed him. Sora aimed his blade at the Corridor as Shadey pressed his tendrils to his maw, from Sora's blade was a beam of just light, from Shadey's maw was a fuming darkness. PULSE!

The beams made contact with the corridor and caused a keyhole to form if for a moment. The Corridor exploded and with it, a sense of satisfaction. Shadey slowly landed as Sora exhaled and almost fell on his back, Kairi held him and let him lean as Riku felt a presence leave. "...Incredible." Deadpool giggled. "Yeah I know, there's nothing for the cops to find out." Riku gave Deadpool a look like it wasn't that simple. "I've seen a jerk we know, survive worse than a grenade to the face. But it does give him the message that he isn't welcome back here. Sora and his Anti Form, kicked the Coachman out of the city."

Deadpool shrugged. "Eh, well it's close enough." He saw Big Hero 6 and Spiderman catch up as the dark tent faded away. "Hey we did it, we got rid of the crook without having to let me murder him." He woo'd and wanted to give the party a high five, Spiderman stared at him awkwardly as Baymax approached with a Hiro on his back, the boy genius on the robot asked. "So... you guys want to explain what's happening? It's hard to follow."

Ken approached and smiled to the Guardians of Light, giving them a silent confession that he had something to do with the question, Riku folded his arms to give him a scowl as Donald wanted to lecture the youngest boy. "What did you tell him?" Hiro answered for Ken. "Just that if you guys started talking in weird, that we're going to have to keep a secret you guys have." The one armed boy confessed. "Because this isn't normal, even for what normally goes on in this city." Riku and Kairi hummed at some of the stories they heard, the silver haired teenager felt a smile of teeth behind his lips. "Alright, we'll meet back at the hideout and we'll tell these guys." He asked Hiro and the group. "What we're going to talk about is NOT to leave that place."

Sora admitted to the super heroes prowess. "It also looks like they handled that Daemon by themselves. There is no way for it to make any sense to them if we lie about it." Kairi admitted. "And they need to know where that came from. That Shugyo, paid off." Fred laughed that his idea worked as Go Go smirked with pride. "You were right, Fred, that thing was what we needed."

Sora showed the device Deadpool gave him and asked Shadey. "Go find Dupmic, it's time we finally get to the bottom of this." The dark creature took the form of a bird and flew off as Deadpool turned to Spiderman. "Hey Spidey, while they do that, there is something we need to go search for before hell's let loose again." Spiderman groaned. "Fine, lead the way." Deadpool took a grappling hook and fired, he turned to the super heroes. "You'll be smart enough to figure it out." He fired the hook. "Grappling swing!" He flung off and Spiderman fired his web. "Come on Wade!" Fling! The super heroes took off in an early, afternoon sun that shined ever proudly.
