"Don't assume your dreams are just fantasy. If you can imagine a world, believe in it. And dive in."
After Nocturne gain some of her memories back, she also found one of her own sisters, Aubade.
Now they're in Metropolis, getting ready for the Masquerade Ball at their school tonight.
Will it go smoothly as planned or will the Heartless crash this party? Let's find out, shall we?
[Metropolis - City - Hotel] (Timeskip - Morning)
Nocturne's phone rang as she stopped it from ringing before it wakes up the classmates.
Aubade did the same thing with her phone and both of the girls woke up from their beauty sleep.
Nocturne: Bonjour, Aubade.
Aubade: Bonjour, Nocturne.
Nocturne: Ready to start our day today?
Aubade: You bet I am!
Nocturne and Aubade went to the bathroom to wash themselves, brush their teeth, wash their face and comb their hair.
They also got dressed from their pajamas and in their school outfits after their shower and went out of the bathroom to start their day.
They both got their breakfast, thanks to room service, pancakes, eggs and bacon with syrup.
Nocturne was making a smiley face with the eggs and bacon, while Aubade gave the pancakes, bacon and egg hair.
Nocturne/Aubade: (Laughing and eating their breakfast) Finished!
They both got out of their hotel room and went down to the lobby.
Fleur: Morning, girls!
Nocturne/Aubade: Bonjour, Miss Fleur!
Fleur: You girls are heading out early?
Nocturne: Yes we are, we're going to hang out in the city today until we're ready for the main event tonight.
Aubade: I hope the masquerade ball will be a blast, it will be like a dream come true.
Fleur: Well, I hope you two enjoy the city and the masquerade ball too.
Nocturne/Aubade: Thanks! (They left the hotel to head into the city of Metropolis)
Fleur: Those girls are something special. (Takes out her locket and opens it and shows her and Nocturne's Mom) Just like us, Fantasia.
[Metropolis - City - Park]
The two girls were relaxing under the shade of a tree, while lying down on the grass.
Nocturne: (Sighs) What a nice relaxing day at the park, isn't that right, Aubade?
Aubade: It is quite calming and relaxing at the same time.
Nocturne: But remember why we're here in Metropolis.
Aubade: Find our sisters and reunite to stop the Heartless?
Nocturne: Of course, Aubade. We need to find the girls with the accessories that my mom has back home.
Aubade: Because of you and my necklace, I'm back.
Nocturne: I'm happy for you coming back, Aubade.
Aubade: Me too, Nocturne. Me too.
After their relaxation, as they were about to head on over to Sweet Justice again, the Heartless are on the run again.
Aubade: Uh oh, Heartless!
Nocturne: We must not let them swallow this world to darkness.
Aubade: You're right and Nocturne, you're not fighting alone! (Summons her keyblade from her heart, Sweet Dreams) I'm coming too.
Nocturne: You have a keyblade as well, Aubade?
Aubade: Yup, this is my keyblade, Sweet Dreams.
Nocturne: I didn't know you had a keyblade all this time!
Aubade: It must've happened when I was awakened from my old self, Reine.
Nocturne: That's really amazing of you, Aubade. I'm seriously glad to have you back!
Aubade: Thanks. But now's not the time for chit-chat, we've got some Heartless to stop!
Nocturne: I agree with you on that, Nocturne. Let's go!
[Metropolis - City - Carnival Boardwalk]
Nocturne and Aubade followed the Heartless to a boardwalk that's also a carnival and everyone was running away from those monsters.
Nocturne: Really? Terrorizing citizens in a carnival, while people just want to have fun?
Aubade: I think this place will help me enhance my necklace's ability to summon attractions from the light.
Nocturne: You're right, these ride do have a similarity on the rides. So, you might have an advantage here, sis.
Aubade: Well then, what are we waiting for? Let's wipe out some Heartless!
As the Heartless were rampaging through the park, the lights have been dimmed down low, like when a movie is about to start.
A spotlight appeared on the Heartless as Nocturne and Aubade start their "show".
The spotlight shined on Nocturne, as she was by the cotton candy stand, while eating cotton candy.
Nocturne: Well, well, well, if it isn't the Heartless. Ruining a perfectly beautiful carnival.
Now the spotlight shined on Aubade and she was flying by the Heartless with her butterfly wings.
Aubade: Now that's shameful and do you know what we do to shameful people?
The Heartless were clueless and confused at the same time.
Aubade: I do this! (Took a nose dive and slashed a Soldier with her Sweet Dreams and vanished)
Now the Heartless were shocked and surprised on what Aubade did.
Nocturne: So, without further ado. Aubade? What time is it?
Aubade: I know the answer to that question, Nocturne!
Aubade went to Nocturne with a perfect landing and said this to the Heartless.
Nocturne/Aubade: It's Showtime! (Nocturne charged towards the Heartless, as Aubade flew towards the Heartless with her suit)
Nocturne summoned her keyblade Starlight and sliced the Soldiers in half and the hearts were released from them.
Nocturne: Well that's what I call, a slice of light and darkness. (Drum Beats and Cymbal)
Aubade: Okay then, now it's my turn now!
Aubade did a nose dive down towards the Heartless and does a Shock Dive on them.
Aubade: Now that's what I call, a total shocker for you. (Drum Beats and Cymbal)
Nocturne and Aubade were clashing and bashing the Heartless, they were off to a good start. Or so they thought.
Aubade: So far, so good, Nocturne! We're on a (Got hit by a Large Body) WWWHHHOOOAAA!
Nocturne: Aubade! (Also got hit by another Large Body) (Screaming)
They were both hit by two Large Bodies and their own bodies were feeling a bit numb from the impact.
Nocturne: (While injured) Are you okay?
Aubade: (While injured) Yeah. I'm okay.
The Large Bodies are the powerhouse of the Heartless, not only they do impacts, they also slide in order to get to their enemies faster.
Nocturne: I can still fight them. (Gets up from the ground)
Aubade: Don't worry, I'll handle this problem. (Got up and flew at the Large Bodies, she tries to hit them, but the attack bounced back) What?!
The Large Body retaliated at Aubade and Nocturne went from behind and strike from behind and the Heartless took damage from it.
Nocturne: (Gasp) Aubade, attack from behind! That's it's weak point!
Aubade: Got it! (Recovers, flew up and flies around the Heartless from the behind) Peek-a-boo! (Attacks the Large Body and it vanishes)
Nocturne did the same thing and strikes down the Large Body, then it vanishes. The girls took out the remaining Heartless and they're gone.
Nocturne/Aubade: We did it! (Hugged each other and then a victory pose) La Victoire!
Aubade: That was really amazing of you, Nocturne! You really know how to find a weak point of every Heartless.
Nocturne: You're welcome, but next time, be more careful, okay? I don't want to lose you.
Aubade: Me neither. (Touches her Illusion Choker and activates it) (Reveals her name, but there's something hidden within and showed the letters, S,R,N and D)
Nocturne: Huh? Your name, Sis. There's something different about it. (Unravels Aubade's name to her true name)
Aubade's name was actually her true name, Serenade.
Nocturne: Serenade, I really miss you so much. (Embraces her hug even more)
Serenade: I'm here for you, Nocturne. No matter what.
Nocturne: You're not called by "The Butterfly Knight", you're actually "The Astral Butterfly". You have a special ability called Reality Shift.
Serenade: You figured out my true name and ability? I don't think I operate the attractions. I think the one who uses the attractions is you.
Nocturne: Me? But when we dropped off Zee and Karen, you summoned the train.
Serenade: I just used half of my power transferred to you, Nocturne.
Nocturne: You did? Wow, I never knew it would be with me all this time. (Sigh)
Serenade: Come on, let's go get ready for the ball.
Nocturne: Right, can't sleep the day away.
The two sisters went out from the carnival and getting ready for the ball tonight.
[Metropolis - City - Zee's Residency] (Timeskip - Afternoon)
Nocturne and Serenade were passing through a certain building with spotlights and billboards.
Nocturne: Serenade, isn't this place where Zee lives?
Serenade: This is the place, but we got to get ready for the ball. Otherwise, we won't party with the students.
Nocturne: Right. (Fixes her glasses) We need to get moving and buy dresses for the ball and masks. Don't forget the masks.
Serenade: Right and together, we're going to have the best night ever!
As Zee went out of her building along with her friend Karen, they saw Nocturne and Serenade cheering and dancing on their way to get prepared for the party.
Zee: Ah, looks like some girls are excited to go to the party.
Karen: Nocturne and Aubade, how's it going, you guys?
Nocturne: Well if it isn't the princess herself?
Serenade: My queen, I go by Serenade now. My sister's choker revealed my true name and ability.
Karen: So the train wasn't summoned by you?
Zee: The train was summoned by Nocturne herself.
Nocturne: It was Serenade's gift from her and it was a wonderful one, indeed.
Karen: Anyways, you guys are on your way to get prepared for the party tonight at the school?
Serenade: Yup, we're going to need to get dresses, get our makeup done and we'll be all set.
Suddenly, there was a package that came out of the ground, it was wrapped in silver wrapping paper tied with a ruby-colored ribbon.
Nocturne: It's a present? It's not even my birthday yet. But it does have a note.
Serenade: (Takes the note and reads it) It's from our mom! "For my two daughters, here are some dresses for the Masquerade Ball and some masks to go with the attire."
Nocturne: (She also reads the note as well) "I hope you two will have fun and have a wonderful time. Love, your mother." Thank you, Mom.
Zee: Well, what are you two waiting for? Open the present.
Nocturne: Oh right! (Unwraps the present and opens the box) Whoa!
The box revealed two dresses and a pair of masks for Nocturne and Serenade.
For Nocturne, it was a dress with a side split that contains the colors of Mirage Split and for Serenade, it was a short party dress that contained the colors of Nightmare's End.
As for the masks, they have the same colors for a specific dress. But what's different is that Serenade has angel wings, while Nocturne has bat wings.
Nocturne: They look so pretty. So, the Mirage Split dress is mine, while the Nightmare's End dress is for Serenade?
Serenade: I think so. I may be a butterfly, but that doesn't mean I can become who I am. Let's try it on!
Nocturne: (Snaps her fingers and summoned a portable changing room) Well, wish me luck, girls.
Nocturne took her dress and mask as she went to the changing room to change from her school outfit with her masquerade outfit.
(One outfit change later)
Nocturne: Okay, I'm ready! (Came out of the dressing room, while wearing the dress and mask that was in the present)
Zee: Nocturne, you look gorgeous in that outfit, everyone at school will definitely be high over heels for you.
Nocturne: (Blushing) Zee, I don't know what to say. Except, thank you for your opinion. (Winked at her)
Zee: (Winked back at Nocturne) You're welcome, Nocturne.
Serenade: All right, ladies. it's my turn. (Went into the changing room for an outfit change) No peeking!
(Another outfit change later)
Serenade: Ladies! Are you ready to see? (Came out of the dressing room, while she was wearing her dress and mask as well)
Karen: Wow! Serenade, you look so amazing and beautiful at the same time.
Serenade: Thank you, my queen. I like to take your words as a compliment.
Karen: (Blushing) Really?! I mean, you think so? Well, I hope this night will be great.
Nocturne puts away her portable changing room with her keyblade and sends it back where it belongs.
Nocturne: Wait, why aren't you two ready for the masquerade ball? Me and Serenade got our clothes ready for the ball.
Zee: (Sing-Song Voice) Of course, my dear. (Regular Voice) I already got my dress for the masquerade ball and I've got my masquerade mask ready!
Zee's masquerade outfit was a purple saloon dancer dress and her mask has the matching design as her dress.
Nocturne: Wait a minute, that outfit! (Looks at Zee's masquerade dress) It can't be!
Zee: (Placed a finger on Nocturne's lips) Shh! Don't tell anyone else about this dress. It's a surprise.
Nocturne: I'm sorry, it's just that I'm very curious about your dress.
Zee: Really? (Blushed a bit) Sorry, but if your going to see it, wait until we're ready for the ball.
Nocturne: Okay, but why do you want it to be a secret?
Zee: Because if anybody found out about this outfit, it will spoil the surprise! Besides, I have a reputation as a magician on the line.
Nocturne: Got it, I won't tell a soul. (Realized something in thought) Why do I have this memory?
Serenade: Wait, what about Karen?
Karen: Oh that, I don't have a dress. I actually don't have any dresses at all.
Nocturne/Serenade/Zee: WHAT?!
Karen: It's true, I never had any dresses for my entire life. Not even to go to any formal parties.
Serenade: But, my queen. Isn't this your first masquerade ball?
Karen: Yeah, but I don't know if I'll be ready on time.
Nocturne: Karen, we're going to help you find a dress for the ball! Right, Zee?
Zee: Of course, my dear Nocturne. And we'll do this in a style that we know!
Nocturne: Karen, me, Zee and Serenade will head into the mall and find you a special dress for the ball.
Karen: You would do that for me?!
Nocturne/Serenade/Zee: Yeah, we'll be your fairy godmothers for this wonderful evening!
Karen: Fairy godmothers? How come, girls?
Nocturne: Haven't you even listened to the fairy tale of Cinderella?
Serenade: As fairy godmothers, it's our job to help out the girl who needs to be on time for the ball.
Zee: And that my dear Karen is where you come in as the princess that's desperate for our help.
Karen: What? (Gets lifted by Serenade) Whoa!
Serenade: (Neighs) Horseback ride, my queen? Then, here we go! (Heads to the mall)
Nocturne/Zee: Serenade, Karen, wait for us! (Runs after the two girls)
[Metropolis - Mall]
Serenade: We're here! (Puts Karen down) Welcome to paradise, my queen.
Nocturne: Serenade, there you are. You ran way too fast before us. (Out of breath)
Serenade: Sorry, but when I'm a horse, I like to just hoof it.
Zee: (Out of breath) Wow, she was very fast for a young girl.
Serenade: That's what happens when I'm a horse, Zee. I like to just giddy on up and head on over.
Nocturne: Slow down, next time, okay? (Looked at her dress) Aw! My dress is messed up!
Serenade: (Looked at her dress) Oh, I might have gone a bit too much horsing around. (Laughing awkwardly)
Zee: Here, allow me. (Summons her wand and casts a spell) Enrutcon dna Edaneres's sesserd, kool doog niaga!
Nocturne and Serenade's dresses are being repaired and in just a few seconds, they're good as new!
Nocturne/Serenade: Whoa! Thanks, Zee!
Zee: Don't mention it, you two.
A note appeared on Nocturne's hands and as Nocturne opened the note, she was annoyed and angry at the same time.
Nocturne: (Upset) "I forgot to add in the repair spell on the dresses, so that they can fix themselves. Sorry." Unbelievable!
Serenade: She forgot to add a repair spell to our dresses?! Rude!
The two girls used their keyblades to get out of their dresses, switch to their regular clothes and put them back in the present.
Nocturne: (Sigh) But enough about us. (Sends it back to her mom, so that she can put the spell into them) Let's focus on Karen.
Serenade: Right! There are many stores that require the perfect dress for our queen to go to the ball.
Zee: Right, let's go pick out the perfect dress!
The girls went through the mall to find the perfect dress for Karen to wear. but little did they know, some of the dresses of Karen's size were sold out!
Nocturne: (Frustration) This is so frustrating! How come there isn't a single dress with Karen's size?!
Serenade: (Frustration) I know, right?! All the stores sold the small dresses for the other girls who wanted it!
Karen: Any luck with finding any dresses, girls?
Zee: Karen, I think they're a bit stressed out today and the stores don't have dresses of your size. Come on, let's head on over to some other stores outside.
Nocturne: Yeah Karen, you go with Zee. We need to cool down for a bit.
Karen: All right, come meet us if you're ready.
Nocturne/Serenade: All right.
Zee and Karen went out of the mall to find the perfect dress for Karen to wear for the ball.
Nocturne: (Sigh) Do you think we've missed some spots to look?
Serenade: We can check again if you like, when you're calm.
Nocturne: (Sigh) You're right, I think I'm all right now. I just want to make this day special, that's all. What about you? Are you calm?
Serenade: Yeah, I think I'm calm too. Let's go meet up with my queen and Zee.
Nocturne: All right, let's move out.
Nocturne and Serenade were getting out of the mall and into the city. But when they were out though, there were Heartless threatening the city again!
Nocturne/Serenade: (Sees the Heartless) You have got to be kidding me!
The Heartless were terrorizing the city, while the girls were getting annoyed and Karen and Zee were still shopping.
Nocturne: (Summons her keyblade out to fight the Heartless) Come on, Serenade. We got to protect the citizens and Karen and Zee.
Serenade: Right! As they say in show biz, the show must go on! (Summons her keyblade as well)
Nocturne and Serenade quickly fought the Heartless with all of their might to save the city! Even though, they took damage from them.
(One Heartless thrashing later)
Nocturne/Serenade: La Victoire!
Serenade: Well, now that's out of the way, let's go meet up with Zee and Karen.
Nocturne: Got it! (She felt another presence and noticed that danger is near) Serenade, get down!
Just then, more Heartless appeared right in front of Nocturne and Serenade as they're blocking their path.
Serenade: Seriously?! More Heartless?!
Nocturne: It's cool, we were just getting started anyways.
The girls charged themselves towards the Heartless, as they were fighting the Heartless once more.
(Another Heartless thrashing later)
Nocturne/Serenade: La Victoire! Again!
Nocturne: Now, let's get to Zee and Karen and find the perfect dress!
Serenade: Right, my queen deserves that dress, no matter what.
But when they're about to get going to their friends, more Heartless were terrorizing the citizens.
Nocturne/Serenade: Are you kidding me?! (Charge towards the Heartless and begun attacking them)
(Third time's the charm)
Nocturne/Serenade: La Victoire! Third time!
Nocturne: Without no interruptions, let's head on over to our friends!
Serenade: Got it, Nocturne!
The Heartless then ambushed the girls from above and they were dodging it non-stop.
Nocturne/Serenade: (Annoyed and Frustrated) (Screaming in anger) THAT DOES IT! (Summons their keyblades) ATTACK!
(You get the idea!)
The girls fought through Heartless after Heartless and saying La Victoire each and every time they finished off the Heartless.
But when they were finished with the last batch, they were gone.
Nocturne/Serenade: (Exhausted Panting) La Victoire. (Groaning and fell down to the ground)
Serenade: Why can't we just relax for a bit?
Nocturne: At this rate, we'll never get to Zee and Karen on time.
Zee: Nocturne! Serenade! There you are, we were going to come get you. But it looks like you're calm now.
Karen: What happened to you two? You look like something bad happened to you.
Serenade: (Exhausted) It was nothing, we were just tired after all.
Karen: That's fine, Serenade. If you're tired, then you won't see me in my new dress.
Serenade: (Eyes wide open) New dress?! How?!
Zee: Basically, there was a dress for her in one of the stores that wasn't sold out and now that we have a dress for her, she can go to the ball.
Nocturne: (Exhausted) That's nice for Karen. (Fainted)
Serenade: (Exhausted) See you at the ball, my queen. (Fainted)
Karen: Zee, they passed out! Maybe their relaxation was too much for them.
Zee: Don't worry, let's all head back to my place to get ready.
Zee conjured up a portal to her room and brought along the two passed out girls and Karen to her room at the residency.
[Metropolis - Zee's Residency - Zee's Room]
Serenade: (Groaning while waking up) What happened? Where am I?
Zee: You're in my room with me and Karen, you passed out for a second and Karen had a heart attack when that happened.
Karen: We had to carry you two over here, so that you wouldn't miss out on the ball.
Serenade: Thanks, I hope this means that will have the opportunity to make a first impression at the ball. Right, Nocturne? (Noticed something) Nocturne?
Nocturne: (She was in a deep sleep)
Zee: Aw, she's still sleeping. Well, all I know is that she was okay. Besides, she might be dreaming something.
Serenade: You're right, that's because she is dreaming. You don't want to wake her up while she's dreaming.
Karen: Dreams can be powerful. But you never know what will happen in a dream.
Serenade: If it's a good dream, a nightmare or a memory, I hope it's a pleasant sleep for her.
Zee: Come on ladies, let's get ready for the ball!
Karen/Serenade: Right behind you, Zee!
While the girls get ready for the ball, let's see how Nocturne's doing in her dreams.
[Nocturne's Dream - Al Hirschfeld Theatre]
Young Nocturne: Mom, this theater is so amazing. It's like a grand stage for everyone to show off their talents.
Fantasia: It is the most popular venues where we're going to see. Right, my dear Operetta?
Operetta: Why of course, this place does have a pleasant aura around here. It's beautiful.
Young Nocturne: Come on, let's go find some seats for the show!
Nocturne, Fantasia and Operetta went to find their seats for the show that they're going to watch.
Fantasia: Ah, here they are. Come on, let's sit down.
The three girls sat down on their seats and waited for the show to begin.
Operetta: Well, I guess now we wait for the show to come on and it's time for this honeymoon to commence.
Fantasia: Of course, I hope that this would be the best show that everyone will enjoy. Even you and me, my love.
Operetta: Aw, Fanti! (Kisses Fantasia on the lips)
Young Nocturne: I hope this show starts soon, I'm ready for what this show has in store for me.
Zatara: (Off-Screen) Same with me as well.
Young Nocturne: I know, right? (Sees Mr. Zatara surprised) Ahh!
Fantasia: John! You've came, as you promised.
Operetta: I thought you've backed out for a minute the moment of our marriage.
Zatara: I apologize, I was quite busy in show business.
Fantasia: I see and everyone at my school say that my performances were quite...appealing.
Operetta: Yeah, looks like you need some improvement on your act, dear.
Young Nocturne: Anyways, why are you here, Mr. Zatara?
Zatara: I was invited by your mothers, Nocturne. They thought it will be a magical experience for us to share.
Fantasia: The magic of live theater is upon all of us and everyone is here to participate.
Zatara: It is quite a spectacle to see, I hope this show is quite amazing and spectacular at the exact same time.
Young Nocturne: Mr. Zatara, I'm very happy that you've met my mom at your school in the past. You really know how to bring an audience.
Young Zee: (Off-Screen) You really think daddy is the best magician that you've ever met?
Young Nocturne: Yes and now I know why he's called "The Master Of Magic". Wait, who said that?
Young Zee: Sorry if I startled you, it's just that I was surprised that you like my daddy's act.
Fantasia: (Noticed Zee) Oh! John, I didn't know you had a daughter.
Zatara: Of course, how could I forget. Ladies, this is my charming daughter, Zee Zatara.
Operetta: Aw, Fantasia. Check her out, she's so adorable!
Fantasia: I heard about her, she must be "The Princess Of Prestidigitation".
Young Zee: Well, someone must've heard of me before. It's nice to meet you, "Mistress Of Cirque Du Lune", "The Lunar Songstress" and "The Phantom Queen".
Fantasia/Operetta/Young Nocturne: You know us as well?!
Zatara: Why of course, we know. After we were in Abracadabrapalooza, we heard that Cirque Du Lune was in town and we decided that we should check it out.
Young Zee: When we saw you three, Fantasia knows how to bring the crowd up their feet, Operetta was pretty good with singing.
Fantasia: Why I do know how to bring everyone to enjoy some performances.
Operetta: Did my singing wow the crowd? If it did, I would give me some credits on that one.
Young Zee: They were amazing, but the one who's stands out the most would be your daughter, Nocturne.
Young Nocturne: Me?! I don't know, I was just a rookie on my magic tricks.
Young Zee: I know, but you did good at the show. Even I was amazed by how you do your own tricks while performing.
Young Nocturne: (Blushing) T-T-Thank you, Miss Zatara.
Young Zee: Not a problem, Nocti.
Young Nocturne: (Blushing) Nocti?!
Young Zee: It's what I'm about to call you from now on.
Fantasia: Okay, I think our daughter's a bit flustered.
Zatara: Maybe she enjoyed Nocturne's performance at one of your shows.
Operetta: Really? Well Nocturne, looks like you've got a fan favorite.
Young Nocturne: Mom, you're not helping. (Covering her own face)
Fantasia, Operetta, Mr. Zatara and Zee laughed until the show that they're going to watch is about to start.
Zatara: Oh, looks like the show's about to start.
Young Zee: Daddy, I hope this show is going to be spectacular than ours.
Operetta: This is it, my love.
Fantasia: Let our honeymoon commence.
Young Nocturne: Maybe this show can calm my nerves a bit.
When the curtain was pulling up, a flash of light shined upon Nocturne and everything went all white.
[Nocturne's Dream - Al Hirschfeld Theatre - End]
Nocturne started waking up and realized that she was in a limo that was heading to Metropolis High.
Nocturne: (Yawning) What happened? (Sees the girls in their masquerade outfits) Karen? Serenade? Zee?
Serenade: (In her masquerade dress) Finally, you're awake!
Nocturne: What happened? Where am I?
Zee: (In her masquerade dress) You're in a limousine, daddy made sure that we deserve a grand entrance.
Nocturne: Mr. Zatara helped you?
Karen: (In her masquerade dress) Yup, he was very generous of us having our own limo and it was very cool.
Nocturne: (Realized that she was in her masquerade dress as well) Oh! I didn't know that I still have mine on.
Zee: Yeah, I put a spell on you, so that you'll be able to wear your dress in time for the ball.
Nocturne: Really? (Blushed a bit) I didn't know that you put a spell on me, while I was sleeping.
Zee: Did you enjoy the spell that I put on you?
Nocturne: I never saw it coming, but I enjoyed it.
Serenade: Anyways, you were sleeping a long time. Did you have a dream?
Nocturne: As a matter of fact...yes. (Told everyone about the dream she had)
Serenade/Karen: What? You've met Zee in the past?!
Zee: It's true, I've met her when she was younger, after Abracadabrapalooza.
Nocturne: She told me about Abracadabrapalooza, how she was impressed by my magic tricks and she even called me "Nocti".
Serenade: How come I wasn't in your dream?!
Nocturne: You weren't in the dream is that's when I was born before you. I was very flustered and bashful by her words.
Karen: Zee, why didn't you tell me you've met her before?
Zee: I have to keep my secrets, but I never keep secrets from my best friends.
Nocturne: So would I, I never keep secrets from my siblings.
Serenade: (Sees the school) Ladies, we're almost there.
Karen: In a few moments, we're about to experience the party of our lives.
Nocturne/Zee: The Masquerade Ball. Where our dreams come true.
While the girls were getting ready, the limo was finally at their destination.
[Metropolis - Metropolis High] (Timeskip - Evening) (The Night Of The Masquerade Ball)
The girls exited out of the limo and went inside the school, they have high hopes to have the best night ever!
[In the gymnasium]
Everyone was wearing their masquerade outfits, but with different costumes and different masks. Just like a Halloween party.
(Enter the girls)
Nocturne and Serenade were in their masquerade dresses from their mom as a gift. Dresses that represent the Combined Keyblade.
Zee's masquerade outfit is a spider queen dress, it represents her unique gift of magic that's around her.
Karen's masquerade outfit is a steampunk dress, Zee thought it would be a nice touch for Karen, since she's into studying.
Nocturne: We're here. We're finally here. The Masquerade Ball.
Serenade: If this is how it's going to be, then I'm ready.
Karen: It's the Masquerade Ball, it's so beautiful.
Zee: We're finally here, girls. Now it's time to dance and sing-along to some songs!
The Masquerade Ball was in full swing and everyone started singing and dancing at the same time.
Nocturne: Well? What are we waiting for? Let's dance!
Serenade: Come on, my queen. To the dance floor!
Karen: I'm with you, Serenade!
Zee: Well, looks like I'm joining you, Nocturne. (Went with Nocturne)
Just then, Lois Lane appeared on stage in her dress and she began announcing the masquerade ball.
Lois: Hello, everyone. This is Lois Lane from the Daily Planetoid live at the Masquerade Ball. Are you having fun?!
Everyone: YEAH!
Lois: Well then, let's start this party with the Cha-Cha Slide! (Plays the Cha-Cha Slide)
Serenade: Oh! I've heard about this song! Didn't your friend Johnnie introduced you to this song?
Nocturne: Yeah, I didn't think they have this song in Metropolis.
Serenade: Let's give it a whirl!
Nocturne: It's been a while, but I feel a bit rusty. Here we go!
Nocturne and Serenade did the Cha-Cha Slide, while Zee and Karen were watching them dance along to the song.
During the song, Nocturne notices that her other selves arrived while dancing.
Nocturne's Other Selves: You look daring, but you must be quick. The Heartless are coming within a tock and a tick.
Nocturne: But we just took care of the Heartless, didn't we?
Nocturne's Other Selves: You did, but there's another one. One that's way powerful and it's after the magic within you.
Nocturne: Magic within me? What do you mean magic within me?
Nocturne's Other Selves: You'll find out very soon. Farewell. (The four left Nocturne all alone in her thoughts)
Nocturne: I don't know what Heartless is after me, but what I do know is that I must protect the magic within me.
Serenade: (While doing the dance) Nocturne? Are you okay?
Nocturne: (While dancing) Yeah, I'm alright. Let's talk after the Cha-Cha Slide.
Serenade: Okay. Let's finish the dance, then we'll talk.
(One Cha-Cha Slide Later)
Lois: Thank you for participating and without further ado, enjoy the Masquerade Ball!
Everyone: (Cheering)
Nocturne: All right, Serenade. Now I'll let you know what's happening.
Serenade: Okay then, tell me what happened.
Nocturne: My other selves tell me that we haven't gotten rid of all of the Heartless.
Serenade: What?! This isn't fair, we beaten a lot of Heartless on our way to Karen and Zee.
Nocturne: Well there's a Heartless that's powerful than the others. We need to be cautious and don't let anything distract us.
Zee: A Heartless that's powerful than the others?
Nocturne and Serenade were surprised and shocked at the same time.
Nocturne: Zee! Don't scare me like that!
Karen: Sorry, but we came to you guys and see if you're done with the Cha-Cha Slide. I also know that there's a Heartless very powerful than the others.
Serenade: So, you've heard about this while we were talking.
Nocturne: Look, my other selves told me that a Heartless is after the magic within me and we must stop it at all costs!
Zee: All right, we'll wait after the party and head on over to Sweet Justice tomorrow and stop the Heartless!
Serenade: Good plan, but for now, let's enjoy the Masquerade Ball.
Nocturne/Zee/Karen: Right!
So the four girls had a great time at the Masquerade Ball, they did some fun activities, played games and watched some movies on a projection screen.
(15 Minutes Later)
Lois: All right, ladies and gentlemen, how's the party so far?
Everyone: (Cheering)
Lois: That's wonderful, now it's time that we lighten up...the mood.
Everyone: Ooh!
Lois: That's right, it's time to partner up or couple up, because it's time for a slow dance. (Plays some slow dance music)
Nocturne: Oh no. it's one of those dances, huh?
Lois: All right, Metropolis High, if you have a date or a friend, then pair up and dance your hearts to it's content. Thank you and enjoy the dance.
Serenade: Yup, it's the slow dance.
Karen: I learned some dances from Diana, but never a slow dance. I don't think we can stand a chance like this.
Zee: (Thought of an idea) I know! Follow me, I know of a perfect spot for us to hang out and relax at the same time.
Nocturne: All right, if you say so. (She followed Zee to where she wants Nocturne, Serenade and Karen to relax and chill at the same time)
Serenade/Karen: Hey, wait for us!
[Metropolis - Metropolis High - Theater]
Zee: Here we are, Nocturne and Serenade, welcome to the Metropolis High Theater!
Nocturne/Serenade: Whoa!
Serenade: A theater within a school? This is sweet!
Karen: Yeah, it was either this or the auditorium. But the theater's better.
Nocturne: So, everyone did some plays around here?
Zee: Of course, I'm not just good with magic, but I'm also good in school plays.
Nocturne: Really?! I did remember going to one in my dreams. But it ended when the show was about to start.
Zee: Oh, but don't you want to know what show that we saw in the past?
Nocturne: Yeah. It was the musical, Moulin Rogue. Don't you remember?
Zee: Yeah, we were at Al Hirschfeld Theater in Manhattan while me and daddy are on tour. You've remembered the show we used to see when we were younger.
Nocturne: Not to mention you made me all flustered and blushy-crushy all over to you.
Zee: Aw, come on. I was just joking you. And were you blushing for real when I was teasing you?
Karen: I think Nocturne has a crush on you, Zee. Just like when Diana has a crush on Steve Trevor.
Serenade: Steve Trevor? Who's that?
Zee: It's this boy that Diana has a crush on and between five out of six, it's getting annoying. But enough about him, what about you?
Nocturne: Well...it's very confusing and I don't want to say why. But I'll let you know when I feel like talking.
Zee: All right, don't want to ruffle your feathers more often. So, now that we're here, I have an idea.
Zee went on over to the stage and changed from her masquerade outfit to her magician outfit.
Zee: Karen, would you mind coming up on stage with me?
Karen: I'm on it, Zee. (Went to the stage, where Zee is standing at) I'm here, what do you need?
Zee: (Whispering) We're going to try to do some stuff that I did, so that not only we can jog Nocturne's memory, but give her a good time.
Karen: All right, I'll help out as much as I can. With some help from Serenade, of course.
Serenade: Say no more, girls. I'll help out as much as I can from here.
Zee/Karen: Huh?! You can hear in our conversation as well?!
Serenade: Gotta get you back, somehow. For scaring me and Nocturne. But I'll help out too.
Zee: Great, that's what I like to hear! Now, let's start the show, shall we?
The girls decided to start the show of magic tricks and theater plays.
Nocturne: (Thought) A Heartless that's after the magic within me. I wonder who might it be?
Just then, a spotlight shined upon her and Zee gave an announcement that it's time to start the show.
Zee: Nocturne, prepare yourself for a mind bending journey, into the mystical mind of the world famous Princess Of Prestidigitation, the one and the only, Zee Zatara!
The fireworks came out from Zee's wand and Nocturne was really surprised of what's going on.
Serenade: Nocturne, get ready to dive into your fantasy and change reality with The Astral Butterfly herself, it's-a me, Serenade! At your service! (Winks)
Karen: Good evening, Miss Nocturne. I'll be your guide for this evening. I'll also be assisting Zee Zatara and Serenade to make this masquerade show special.
Nocturne: (Thought) This should be interesting, maybe it will help me forget my worries. (Reality) All right, ladies. Entertain me!
Zee: Now for my first trick for you, Nocturne. The Curious Cloning Cottontails!
Zee threw her hat up in the air as she was sliding her hat with her arms and leg like she did acrobatics and catches her hat.
Nocturne: Did she do acrobatics when she was with Mr. Zatara?
Zee was ready to use the hat, as she was about to reach into the hat and pulled out a bunny.
Nocturne: (Sees the bunny as it waves to her) (Girl Shriek) It's so adorable! XD
Zee: If you think that's adorable, how about these? (Brings out more bunnies) Ta-da!
Nocturne: (Another Girl Shriek) More cuddly friends?! Aw, Zee! You do know how to make a girl feel overjoyed about the cutest things.
Zee: (Shocked) Why thanks. You know, everyone else just ignores me, calls me a faker and I don't want to be called that. But at least the children love it.
Nocturne: Well, I enjoyed that magic trick. So, anything else upon your sleeve?
Zee: Whoa, for the first time, someone actually liked my magic trick and now she wants to see more? Okay!
Serenade: Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey! It's my turn! Zee, we all agreed to perform as well.
Zee: (Sigh) Alright, let's see what you can do, Serenade.
Serenade: Good. (Sing-Song Voice) Oh, my queen bee!
Karen: What is it, Serenade?
Serenade: (Activates her necklace's power) (Creates pillars and lines across the theater) You're going to love this! It's way better than skateboarding and rollerblading.
Karen: Whoa, looks like you made this with your necklace?
Serenade: This is my power, the Necklace Of Dreams. It allows me to use a certain ability called Reality Shift.
Nocturne: So this is her true power of the necklace? What are these lines for?
Serenade: This is called the Faithline!
Nocturne/Karen: The Faithline?!
Serenade: Allow me and Karen show you how it's done! Karen, sweetie?
Karen: Sure thing, Serenade!
Serenade and Karen went to the Faithline and rode the line like they're grinding on it with a skateboard.
They both did some tricks on the line, like Serenade could skate with her keyblade and when Karen was trying to balance on one foot, while pretending to figure skate.
Karen tried jumping and twirling, while staying on the line and Serenade was playing her keyblade as an instrument.
Nocturne: Whoa. Way to go with your performance, Karen and nice show, Serenade!
Serenade/Karen: Thanks, Nocturne!
Zee: (Clears her throat) Can I have my turn now?
Serenade/Karen: Sure thing, Zee!
Zee: This time, can Karen help me out this time?
Karen: Sure Zee, anything to help you out.
Nocturne: This should be interesting.
Serenade: Go Karen, make Nocturne proud of us!
Karen: All right, Serenade. For you, me and Zee! Let's make her proud!
Zee: For my next trick, It will be a simple card trick.
Nocturne: Card tricks?! Maybe I could get some pointers on this.
Zee: Nocturne, pick a card, any card. (Takes out her hand of cards)
Nocturne: (Thinking) Let's see...I'll go for this one. (Reality) I will take this card. (Takes the card from the middle)
Zee: Nice choice, remember that card and don't show it to me!
Nocturne: I will, don't worry, Zee. Your queen has got you covered. (Thought) The card is the Ace Of Clubs. (Puts the card back in Zee's hand)
Zee: All right, now all I need to do is to find your card that you picked without showing me.
Serenade: Can she really pull it off?
Karen: Trust me, she got this! I've seen her do her tricks sometimes when I want to hang out with her.
Nocturne: I hope she can find the card that I chose.
Zee: (She took a card from her deck) Is this your card, Nocturne? (The card is the King Of Hearts)
Nocturne: Nope, I didn't chose that card.
Zee: Oh. Well, no worries. Let's go for a second time. (Puts the King Of Hearts back)
Nocturne: Try again, Zee. You'll get it right this time.
Zee: (She took out another card) Is this your card, Nocturne? (The card is the Queen Of Spades)
Nocturne: I didn't chose that one, either.
Zee: It's okay, I can try again. As they say, third time's the charm. (Puts the Queen Of Spades back)
Nocturne: Come on, Zee. You can do this. Find the card that's red.
Zee: (She took out another card) Is this your card, Nocturne? (The card is the Jack Of Diamonds)
Nocturne: So close, Zee! But I didn't choose that card.
Zee: Really? Not this card? (Breathes in and out) All right, Zee. Try again and don't lose it. (Puts the Jack Of Diamonds back)
Karen: I think Zee's having a hard time finding the right card.
Serenade: We need to cheer on Zee, so that she'll never give up!
Karen/Serenade: Don't give up, Zee. Find her card! Find her card! Find her card! Find her card! Find her card! Find her card!
Zee: You're right, Karen and Serenade. I'll find Nocturne's card. With the luck of the draw! (She took out the fourth card)
Nocturne: (Gasp) (Whispers) She did it.
Zee: Is this your true card?! (The card was the Ace Of Clubs)
Nocturne: That's the card, my Princess Of Prestidigitation!
Zee: (Sees the Ace Of Clubs and squealing) I did it! I've chosen the right card!
Karen: All right, Zee!
Serenade: Way to go, Zee!
Zee: Thank you, thank you! But before I pass the baton to Karen, I've got a surprise for Nocturne.
Nocturne: Really? What is it?!
Zee: (Summons her wand and uses it on the Ace Of Clubs)
Nocturne: The card! It's changing!
The Ace Of Hearts is coming to live as Zee casts a spell on the card.
Zee: Tiusnu! (The Ace Of Clubs was taken out of the card and it began planting itself on stage, as it became a tree.
Nocturne: (Gasp) It's the Tree Of Clubs! I thought it was just a legend. I don't believe it would exist within the cards.
The Tree Of Clubs itself has begun to sprout a flower bud, right in front of Nocturne.
The flower bud then bloomed into a beautiful rose that contained a special green jewel of the Club suit.
Nocturne: Whoa...it's the Jewel Of Clubs. (The jewel floats towards Nocturne and felt the power within the jewel)
Zee: I didn't know that these playing cards contain a special jewel within them.
Serenade: Neither have I, I never knew that there are special jewels within the cards.
The card has the Ace Of Clubs suit back where it belongs, as for the jewel, it remained in Nocturne's hands.
The Tree Of Clubs has disappeared into thin air as it was transported into Hotel Lune and into a very special floor.
Nocturne: That was very amazing, thank you for a wonderful card trick, Zee.
Zee: No problem, that's what magicians and magical girls are for.
Karen: Ooh! Ooh! It's my turn! Don't worry, it's going to be a fun one.
Nocturne: Okay Karen, let's see what you can do.
Karen: For this one, We're going to create a friendly robot for all of us to have and play.
Nocturne: What kind of friendly robot?
Karen: This robot! (Shows them the blueprints) It's known as Cozmo.
Serenade: Aw, it's so cute. We're going to build these adorable robot.
Karen: Actually, they're Artificial Intelligence or AI for short.
Zee: AI, huh? Well, I guess that I don't need magic for this one. (Puts her wand away)
Nocturne: Well then, let's get building.
Karen: Okay, let's get the parts ready and luckily for me, I've got the parts ready and ready to build.
The girls are building Cozmo by following the instructions on the blueprints.
They were working very hard and they hope that they'll work in no time.
(A few minutes later)
Girls: (They finished making the robot) Done!
Cozmo were finally finished and they were booted up when they were finally built.
Karen: Oh, I think they started up. Quickly, try to act natural.
Every lady acted natural, as Cozmo saw the girls and greeted them with their eyes in a delighted way.
Karen: Hi, Cozmo, my name's Karen.
The AI's got their eyes squinted at Karen and they try to recognize Karen.
Cozmo: Karen.
Karen: They know who I am.
Zee: Cozmo, My name is Zee.
The AI studied Zee very carefully and finally recognized her.
Cozmo: Zee.
Serenade: Cozmo, it's nice to meet you, I'm Serenade.
Cozmo checked out Serenade and recognized her face and said her name.
Cozmo: Serenade.
Nocturne: Cozmo, I'm Nocturne.
Cozmo was checking her out and realized her identity.
Cozmo: Nocturne.
Nocturne: It recognized us. It appears that this experiment is complete?
Karen: Not yet, we can also play with it with these blocks.
Nocturne/Serenade/Zee: Yes, Karen.
The girls were playing with Cozmo, they were laughing with joy, while Cozmo was being funny.
Serenade was playing Quick Tap with Cozmo, Cozmo kept tapping on the cube when the colors match and earning points, while Serenade got some points.
Karen was playing Memory Match with Cozmo and they try to remember the pattern and follow the sequence on the cubes for each turn.
Nocturne and Zee were playing a little game of Keepaway, they got the cube closer for Cozmo to pounce the cube and get a point. But they try to keep the cube away.
The girls were really having fun with Cozmo and Cozmo had fun with the girls.
Zee: Looks like we had fun with Cozmo, but now it's time for my finale! The finale is a performance of a show of my choosing.
Karen: All right then, okay Cozmo, it's time to go home for now. (Puts Cozmo and the blocks away and in her bookbag)
Zee: All right, places Nocturne!
Nocturne: Me?! Why just me? Can Karen and Serenade join in on the fun?
Zee: Serenade and Karen have done their parts and now, it's you and me now!
Serenade/Karen: You can do it, Nocturne!
Nocturne: Don't leave me!
Zee: Relax, Nocturne. It's a special play that we're doing and we don't need a script to do it.
Nocturne: Oh, we don't need scripts? Well, at least I know what performance needs to be done.
Zee: Good, now for our costumes. (Took out her wand) Egnahc ym sehtolc! (Changed from her magician's clothes and into her pink dress)
Nocturne was very surprised and amused by her outfit. Zee was wearing a pink dress, vest and heels, white socks and gloves. With her hair tied up.
Nocturne: (Blushing) Zee...you're...you're...gorgeous!
Zee: Why thank you, whenever when I perform on stage with daddy, I always got to wear this in his shows.
Nocturne: Well then, if I have to perform, I have to wear this. (Changed her clothes into her magician's outfit)
Zee: Now that's more like it, an assistant needs her magician.
Nocturne: So, what kind of performance do we need to do?
Zee: For this performance, we'll need to do a performance between an assistant and the apprentice magician.
Nocturne: All right then, let's do it!
Karen: Okay ladies, places for the act!
Serenade: Here we go! Lights, Camera, Action!
Nocturne was sitting at a park bench, thinking what she might do for her master.
Nocturne: (Sigh) This is quite difficult for me. How can I prove my master that I can perform so many tricks beyond everyone's wildest dreams?
While Nocturne's thinking of a plan, a girl came to the bench as well. She told the apprentice these words.
Zee: Try to focus on what the audience wants and then you'll be able to give them a show to remember.
Nocturne: (Noticed the voice and saw where it came from) Oh, I didn't see you there.
Zee: Sometimes, you can expect the unexpected for your awareness.
Nocturne: Thanks for the information and you're right, I'll try to focus on what the people want they want.
Zee: So that you're master can approve your worth?
Nocturne: Wait, you know my master?
Zee: Of course, he's my father and I've been watching you practice with him throughout the entire tour.
Nocturne: Whoa, this is quite the situation I have. My master's daughter, right in my presence. This is so shocking.
Zee: Anyway, I can help you out. You can practice on me if you want.
Nocturne: Practice with you? I don't know. Does your father know that you left?
Zee: Don't worry about it, I'll be on my guard. I promise, nothing will happen to you. I'll always have your back, no matter what.
Nocturne: Thank you, miss. What is your name, by the way.
Zee: My name is Zee Zatara, what's your name?
Nocturne: My name is Nocturne. It's quite to meet you, Miss Zatara.
Karen/Serenade: CUT!
Zee: That was amazing, Nocturne.
Nocturne: It was a nice performance, Zee.
Karen: All right, now that we're done with our show. What do you think, Nocturne?
Serenade: Tell us what you think about our performance?
Nocturne: Ladies, I can't thank you enough for helping out with my nerves. Maybe this Heartless threat won't be bad.
Zee: That's the spirit, Nocturne!
Nocturne: You know, I think this performance's finale is missing something.
Serenade: And what's that, sis?
Nocturne: The song!
Karen: A song finale?! This would change everything!
Nocturne: Everyone, sit back, relax and enjoy the finale, ladies. (Used her keyblade to bring their masquerade outfits back to their owners)
(Sora's Theme "The Guiding Key" Plays)
Serenade: Whoa, now this is an unexpected piece of music.
Karen: I wonder what song Nocturne is going to sing?
Zee: Well, we're about to find out right now!
Nocturne: Out in the distant horizon awaiting me, there's a new world I yearn to see. Marching ahead, never dwelling on yesterday. 'cuz tomorrow's a brand new day.
Serenade: What kind of music is she singing? Whatever it is, it's kind of nice.
Nocturne: Somewhere, residing deep in my heart, I feel a power awaken within. With every journey, a brand new chapter unfolds, in these stories yet to be told.
Karen: This is quite the new song, did she know how to sing this song by heart?
Nocturne: Hand in hand, with my truest friends by my side, we'll adventure into the sky. Somehow, with every step that I take, I feel a part of myself slowly wake.
Zee: This song, it's making her feel proud and she wants to protect the people she loves.
Nocturne: Out in the dark, there are people in need of me and their lives all depend on me. Though it is hard, I just can't leave them suffering, with their souls and hearts slumbering.
Serenade: Sis, you want to protect those who are in need of your help.
Nocturne: Trust me, I'll fix the broken mistakes, I'll be there for them whatever it takes. Fighting the darkness and shadows that come our way, rest assured, it will be okay.
Karen: Which means, you'll need to stop any enemy that comes to your way.
Nocturne: Anything's possible, when you look to the light, we won't give up the fight. We'll walk together towards dark unseen and our hearts will be our guiding key!
Zee: With our guidance, you'll be able to stop the darkness from within the worlds.
(Sora's Theme "The Guiding Key" Ends)
Nocturne: And now, I have one final surprise for everyone to see. (Summons her keyblade, but says these words) Tel ereht eb skrowerif!
When Nocturne said those words, fireworks appeared from her keyblade and shot to the sky and exploded in so many colors and shapes.
Zee: (Gasp) Nocturne, you know about my magic?
Nocturne: You mean talking backwards? Yes, I've known your magic for the past years and mostly, my mom also knows about this.
Zee: That...was...spectacular! I didn't know you had magic within you. Even daddy taught me how to use it when I first got them.
Nocturne: You're proud of me? Why, thanks. (Blushing) This is kind of embarrassing for me to show you three.
Zee: It's no big deal. Besides, I could always have another performer in the wings.
Nocturne: But, it's not just my keyblade. It's also my magic, not just saying things backwards.
Zee: What kind of magic, besides mine, are you talking about?
Karen: Nocturne, Zee, I hate to break up the conversation. But we've got company!
The Heartless appeared in the theater and they're about to prepare their attack on the girls.
Nocturne: (Sees the Heartless and sighs) Must you guys ruin my magical moment with Zee and me?
Serenade: I don't think they enjoy your session with her, Nocturne. (Summons her keyblade and changes her outfit)
Karen: Not one tiny bit, I'm afraid.
The Heartless were Wizards launching their magic attacks, there was fire, water and thunder.
Zee: Whoa! (Dodged the attacks) Whew, that was close!
Nocturne: Zee, Karen, stay back! We'll take care of the Heartless! (Summons her keyblade and changes her outfit)
Serenade: Karen, you stay put, leave the Heartless to us!
Nocturne and Serenade fought off the Heartless Wizards. As they were dodging each and every attack from them.
Nocturne: (Attacking the Wizards) I'll never let you harm my friends!
Serenade: We'll take what's ours and protect this world! (Attacks the Wizards)
Nocturne and Serenade fought off each and every last Heartless until they were all gone.
Nocturne: (Exhausted) Whew! That was a close one.
Serenade: (Exhausted) Yeah, tell me about it. That was an exhausting battle.
But when everything's about to cool down, Nocturne got attacked.
Serenade/Karen/Zee: Nocturne! (Ran towards Nocturne)
Nocturne: (Tries to regain her consciousness and she sees the one who's after her) Oh no! It's here?! Already?!
The Heartless Boss known as the Jewel Sorceress was waving it's wand and sends it's shards from her hat after Nocturne.
Serenade: (Exhausted) No! (Ran towards Nocturne to protect her from the attack) Ahh!
Karen/Zee: Serenade! (Sees the Jewel Sorceress after them now)
Karen and Zee kept on dodging the crystals and as they were dodging, Nocturne and Serenade were observing the girls.
Nocturne/Serenade: Karen, Zee, get out of here!
Karen: No, we're not going to leave you here in the hands of the Heartless.
Zee: That's right, it's time that we helped you for a change.
Nocturne: How? You don't have any keyblades. You'll be outmatched by it's attacks.
Zee: Don't worry, just rest for now. Let me and Karen handle this.
The Jewel Sorceress was about to attack the girls, until Zee and Karen were standing their ground.
Serenade: Ladies, don't do this!
Nocturne: You'll get hurt if you stand your ground!
Zee/Karen: Trust us, Nocturne and Serenade!
The Jewel Sorceress was sending it's shards at the girls, until Zee shined a light with her wand and the fallen girls were blinded.
Nocturne/Serenade: Zee! Karen!
The light has subdued and noticed that they were gone and nowhere seen.
Nocturne: No, they didn't make it. (Starts to cry and looks at the Jewel Sorceress in anger) How dare you!
Serenade: (Crying) Karen...she and Zee was just innocent people. They were our friends!
The Jewel Sorceress was about to use it's shards once again, the fallen girls weren't at their full strength.
Nocturne/Serenade: (Tries to stand up a little bit) We won't lose from you! (Summons their keyblades to prepare for the worst)
The Jewel Sorceress was using it's shards to attack the girls, but then it was deflected by a purple magic hat.
Nocturne: (Curious) A purple magic hat? What's it doing here?
Serenade: (Gasp) Look! (The magic hat has the Heartless' shards) The magic hat protected us!
Nocturne: You mean, we're safe? (Gasp) We're safe! Thank you, magical hat! (Hugs the hat)
Zatanna: (Off-Screen) Why thank you, Nocturne. Anything for a girl in need. Or perhaps, a magical phantom girl?
Nocturne: (Noticed the voice) That voice, Zee, is that really you?
Bumblebee: (While being small) She's still alive and so am I!
Serenade: (Stopped crying) Karen! You're still alive and not got destroyed by the Heartless!
Zatanna: Turn around girls, we're right behind you. (Blows Nocturne's ear)
Nocturne and Serenade both turned around and saw that Zee and Karen are still alive and have an all-new look.
Nocturne: Zee, you're...you're...wonderful! (Hugs her tightly, while crying) I could just kiss you!
Zatanna: Ahem! Not a good time, Nocturne. But maybe when we're done with this Heartless, okay?
Nocturne: Okay, but I got to say, I do like the costume change, Zee.
Zatanna: Thanks Nocturne, but you can call me Zatanna!
Nocturne: Zatanna? That's a magical name! It's perfect.
Serenade: Karen, you're alive! But how?
Bumblebee: It's simple, I'm a tiny, little insect. (Grows back to normal size)
Serenade: You're a bumblebee!
Bumblebee: That's because I am a bumblebee, Serenade. Which is my hero name, of course.
Serenade: My queen, your knight is at your service.
Nocturne: I wish we could fight alongside you two, but we're still exhausted and damaged at the same time.
Zatanna: Hold on girls, I'm on it. (Uses her healing magic to cure the girls) Laeh ym sdneirf!
Nocturne and Serenade were completely healed and their strength returned to the girls.
Nocturne/Serenade: (Full Strength) Hooray! Our strength's back!
Bumblebee: Well then, now that you're healed, let's get rid of this Heartless once and for all!
Nocturne/Serenade: Right!
Zatanna: I've got an idea and it's a wonderful idea that's about to become magical.
The girls got a plan and Nocturne took that plan into action!
Nocturne: (Whistles) Over here! (She went behind the curtain, luring the Heartless into the curtain)
The Jewel Sorceress followed Nocturne into the curtain of the stage, but noticed that there's another curtain behind the last curtain.
It was confused and doesn't know where the target is, until this happened.
Zatanna: Heartless, prepare yourself for a show like no other!
Bumblebee: Because you're about to taste the power of four!
Serenade: You're going to be in a world of magic and pain!
Just then, Starlight appeared to be spinning towards the Jewel Sorceress and hits it.
Nocturne: This is going to be a wonderful battle.
Zatanna: Starring me, the mysterious, the fabulous, the awe-inspiring Zatanna!
Bumblebee: Along with Bumblebee, The smartest hero in school!
Serenade: The rise of the Astral Butterfly, Serenade!
Nocturne: Time for this world to become one with the moonlight with me! Nocturne, the Phantom Queen!
Nocturne/Zatanna/Serenade/Bumblebee: It's time for the show to begin! We're here, watch out! (Superhero pose)
The Jewel Sorceress was attacking the girls with her shards, while Bumblebee shrunk down to a little bee and flew away to get the scepter controlling the shards.
Serenade: Hey Heartless, why don't you pick on someone your own size! (Activates her necklace) (She has summoned a barrel by her side and orbs the barrel)
Nocturne: Whoa, what is that, Serenade?
Serenade: It's another Reality Shift called Sling Shot!
Nocturne: Slingshot? You mean the one that you got to use ammunition at your opponent manually?
Serenade: Yes, but this one can use either a barrel or an enemy. (Fires the barrel at the Jewel Sorceress)
The Jewel Sorceress got hit and dropped its scepter as Bumblebee picks it up and gave it to Zatanna.
Zatanna: Thanks, Bumblebee! It's my turn! (Signals the Jewel Sorceress and shows it the scepter that the Heartless had)
The Jewel Sorceress was going after Zatanna, until she put a barrier in front of the Heartless.
Zatanna: Oh no, you don't. If you want to get your scepter back, then you have to play this little game called the old Shell Game.
Zatanna hid the scepter in one of the purple cups that she conjured up, along with duplicating the scepter.
Zatanna: (Telepathy) Nocturne, it's all on you now.
Nocturne: (Telepathy) Got it, Zatanna.
The cups began to shuffle around the scepter really good and then stopped.
Zatanna: Choose a cup, any cup, pick one if you dare!
The Jewel Sorceress chose the right cup and uncovered the reveal of the scepter.
The scepter then revealed to be Nocturne with her power of the Illusion Choker.
Nocturne: Psych! (Attacks the Jewel Sorceress with her keyblade)
The Jewel Sorceress took damage from Nocturne's attack and Bumblebee joined in by using her stingers at the Heartless. By stingers, I meant stinger blasters!
Serenade: Don't leave me out of the fun! (Attacks the Jewel Sorceress with her keyblade)
Zatanna: May I join in? (Blasts the Jewel Sorceress with her magic)
The girls were attacking the Jewel Sorceress with all their might, until the Heartless itself is about to get very tired.
Serenade: The Heartless has been weakened, let's finish it off! (Ran towards the Jewel Sorceress and attacks it)
Bumblebee: Right, my knight! (Charges her blasters at full power and fires at the Heartless)
Zatanna: I've been waiting for this! (Used her magic to cast a spell) Dnib eht sseltraeh, os taht ti t'now epacse! (The Jewel Sorceress was in chains and Zatanna blasts it)
Nocturne: This ends now! (Casts a spell) Tneicna thgil! (She casts Ancient Light on the Jewel Sorceress)
Everyone used their full strength at the Jewel Sorceress and with their powers combined, the Jewel Sorceress was defeated and a heart came out of it and it disappeared.
Nocturne/Zatanna/Serenade/Bumblebee: (Gasp) We did it! (Laughing and victory pose) La Victoire!
The girls celebrated their victory with a round of applause from multiple hands that Zatanna conjured up.
Nocturne: Show's over for you!
Zatanna: Nothing can stop the great Zatanna!
Bumblebee: How's that for being small?
Serenade: Goodbye, baddies!
After the applause, the girls restored themselves and the theater with their powers. That was an epic battle between a Heartless Boss.
(A few minutes later) The girls were sitting down by the seats of the theater.
Serenade: That was surprising, I didn't know that you two are superheroes.
Bumblebee: I was surprised that you two didn't know until now.
Serenade: I noticed and (Looking at her armor) That suit, that's what made you smaller?
Bumblebee: Yup, it's a special kind of suit that makes me, well, smaller. The other details are really high detailed, so maybe I can show you a thing or two.
Serenade: Yeah, I think me being small was another illusion from Nocturne.
Nocturne: I don't know if it goes on its own or by command.
Zatanna: Don't worry, Nocturne, I'll try to figure out your choker, all right?
Nocturne: Thanks Zee, speaking of which, you look like a true sorceress magician in that outfit. It really brings the magic around you.
Zatanna: Oh, why thank you. No one ever noticed me for how I look, but for who I was on the inside.
Nocturne: You're welcome. (Notices her hair glowing) The way your hair glows like the night sky, it's radiant.
Zatanna: (Blushing) Really? You know, for a magical phantom girl, you do have a way with words.
Nocturne: Magical Phantom Girl? What do you mean by that?
Zatanna: I can sense something dark within you, but you're really into show business.
Nocturne: I really do, even with my magic tricks, sometimes I love to tell fairy tales to my audience.
Zatanna: You love fairy tales? I didn't know about that.
Nocturne: Sometimes people tell me that they're childish stories and they want me to move on to reality, but I want to prove that fairy tales isn't a joke.
Zatanna: I know the feeling, when I started as a magician, everyone thought my magic was fake, but the children had faith in me though. So, I won't give up either.
Serenade: So, two girls who won't give up on their dreams, huh?
Bumblebee: I have faith in Zatanna and Nocturne. They'll have all the time in the world to achieve their dreams.
Serenade: Speaking of time, I wonder what time it is? (Checks the time) Oh shoot! It's 2:50! The party's about to end soon!
Nocturne: Girls, I think we should head back to the gym now. (Changed to her masquerade outfit)
Zatanna/Bumblebee/Serenade: Right! (Changed to their masquerade outfits)
The girls went back to the gymnasium and just in time for the closing ceremonies of the School Festival.
[Metropolis - Metropolis High - Gym]
The girls were at the gym and noticed that the students were about to leave, but instead of going on the bus, they're parents came by to pick them up.
Nocturne: Wow, everyone came to pick us up at the party.
Zee: Well, looks like all's well than ends well.
Karen: I'm going to miss you two, we'll we ever see you again?
Serenade: Sure you will, We'll never be apart, as long we remember each other from our minds and our hearts.
Nocturne: I have an idea! (Summons her keyblade) Serenade, you too.
Serenade: Okay. (Summons her keyblade as well) I'm ready.
Nocturne: Zee Zatara and Karen Beecher, kneel if you please.
Zee and Karen took a knee and felt a bit awkward about what's going to happen.
Serenade: You were courageous, thoughtful and helped us with a Heartless problem. It was risky, but you two pulled it off.
Nocturne: So, we hereby name you, honorary Keyblade Wielders. (Used her keyblade to tap Zee's shoulders)
Serenade: That's right, congrats, you two. (Used her keyblade to tap Karen's shoulders) Now, for the important part.
The girls took their hands off the handles and gave them to Zee and Karen.
Nocturne/Serenade: In your hand, take this key. So long as you have the makings, then through this simple act of taking, it's wielder you shall one day be. And you will find us, Zee Zatara and Karen Beecher. No obstacle will contain you either. No more villains around, or below, or above, so long as you champion the ones you love.
Zee and Karen took the handles of their keyblades, Zee felt the power within Starlight and Karen felt the power within Sweet Dreams.
Zee: This power, it's beyond my magic and it's my destiny to master the keyblade and the magic within me.
Karen: This is amazing, it's like I have a new function, If I master the keyblade, I'll be able to use Reality Shift as well.
Serenade: Well, I'll see about that. In the meantime. (Summons a world gate) I'll see you later.
Nocturne: It's been fun, but we'll still visit you, no matter what. (Takes a bow)
Nocturne and Serenade both went through the world gate and when Nocturne was about to go in, she winked at Zee before she left.
Zee: (Gasp and winks back) (Giggling)
Nocturne went through the gate and went back to Nightfall City with her sister, Serenade.
Karen: That was an interesting adventure that those girls had, right, Zee?
Zee: Yeah, right. (Thinking about Nocturne) (Speaking in her thoughts) Nocti, I've missed you so much.
(Meanwhile with the sisters)
[Nightfall City - Hotel Lune - Penthouse]
Nocturne and Serenade returned to their house as they were entering their house and their mom was there welcoming the girls back from Metropolis.
Fantasia: Welcome home, you two.
Serenade: Mommy! (Hugs Fantasia really tight)
Nocturne: Mom. (Hugs Fantasia as well)
Fantasia: (Felt the hugs) You girls are strong. (Letting go of the hug) So, how's the Masquerade Ball?
Serenade: It was really amazing, the music, the activities and the games we played, it was awesome!
Nocturne: For me, it was pretty good until the Heartless showed up! Even a Heartless Boss. But Zee and Karen came to the rescue as Zatanna and Bumblebee.
Fantasia: Really? Looks like you got over the one who's going after your magic.
Nocturne: Thank you. Me and Serenade were amazed by their power so much, we decided to give them the power to wield the keyblade.
Fantasia: (Gasp) You mean, you did the Keyblade Ceremony?!
Nocturne: Yes and I believe that one day, their keyblades will appear at the right moment.
Serenade: That is a very important step, you'll never know when will it will happen.
Fantasia: I'm proud of you two. (Noticed the green glow in Nocturne's pocket) What's that glowing in your pocket, Nocturne?
Nocturne: (Takes the Jewel Of Clubs from her pocket) Oh this? It's the Jewel Of Clubs.
Fantasia: The Jewel Of Clubs? I thought they were a myth. Nocturne, find the other three gems.
Serenade: Why? Will Nocturne get new power from these gems?
Fantasia: No, but to something even greater. But for now, get some rest, girls.
Serenade: Okay, well, goodnight, Mommy.
Nocturne: Bonne nuit, Mom and you too, Serenade. (Went to her room)
Serenade: Goodnight, Nocturne! (Went to her room as well)
Well, that was an extraordinary adventure we had, Nocturne and Serenade had a wonderful time in Metropolis with Zee and Karen.
Things are heating up in the future, what other adventures will the sisters have to explore? Will they find the other sisters?
Will the sisters bring their new friends along for the journey? All of these questions will be answered, as the journey continues!
(Epilogue) [Metropolis - Zee's Residency - Zee's Room]
Zee was in her room on her bed thinking about Nocturne and remembered something important about her.
She went to her mirror and took out a heart-shaped locket that's behind the makeup, that contained something special inside.
She opened the locket and what's inside was a picture of Zee and Nocturne together in a dipping pose on one picture and winking at the same time on the other picture.
Zee: (Sigh) Nocti, I've missed you so much and now, we've finally reunite once again. But it was only for a little while.
She then looked at her hand by how she felt the power of the keyblade and wishes that she could see her friend again.
Zee: Nocturne, I promise you, I'll see you again and I'll find you in Nightfall City. That's a promise! Or my name isn't Zee Zatara!
