Kingdom Hearts
Ch. 29
Deep Jungle
Your World and Mine
Tarzan led Sora through the camp sight. Sora noticed people were looking at him funny. He could hear whispers and gossip all around. Sora's mind began to wonder questioning what's going on. "Something is not right. Who are these people? They aren't like Tarzan. And from the look of their clothing they don't seem like native people. The camp sight looks new and their belongings here don't seem to match the environment of the world."
He looked back at the giant wrecked ship, "Could they be from another world?" he thought. "Maybe their world was destroyed by the heartless, so they boarded this ship to escape?"
Tarzan brought Sora to a fairly large tent. Tarzan walked through the tarps door while Sora brushed them aside. When Sora walked into the tent, he saw a beautiful young woman fondling with a projector. She had long brown hair and brown eyes. She was thin and had pale skin wearing a white top and a brown skirt. She was bare foot, her hair covered up her ears as she played with the camera. "Jane," Tarzan called out.
The woman turned around greeting Tarzan. She notices Sora behind the ape man and asked, "Who is this?"
She bends down to greet the young boy. "Um, I'm Sora," he mumbles.
She laughs, "Well, you speak English. So you're not related to Tarzan. Well I'm surprised I haven't met you before. Where are you from?" she asked politely.
"Oh, I'm from a village very far away," he said hesitantly.
"What you're a native. How far? From all the time we spent here. We haven't had any contact with intelligent life. Well besides Tarzan," she says intrigued.
Sora gulped a bit not knowing how to answer. "How long have you been here?"
Jane stood up, "Well we've been here for two weeks now after our shipped crashed landed here. Oh dear, I'm sorry. It looks like I've got some explaining to do. Please sit down I'll make you some tea."
Sora spat out bluntly, "You're from another world?"
Jane smiled and admitted it was true. "Yes, we came here to research and study the world. But this planet has a nasty asteroid belt circling the atmosphere. When we entered the atmosphere, our ship was heavily damaged and we crashed landed here. Did someone elseā¦."
Sora looked at Jane a bit depressed. "I see your world was destroyed by the heartless too. I know what that is like. Mine was too. But I managed to escape. I eventually met some frie-people who could help me travel to other worlds in our ship."
Jane's face turned to shock. "What y-your?" The simple minded Tarzan stood still like a gorilla without saying a word.
"Don't worry you don't have to stay here. I know of a place where refugees can live. If you get your-."
Jane interrupted Sora "Wait slow down. My world wasn't d-destroyed. It's-it's too great to fall. But you."
"Aren't from this world," said a tall man now standing at the entrance. He carried a shot gun and a knife on his belt. He wore a yellow suit made for hunting in remote locations. He had short hair and a tiny mustache. Behind him was Donald and Goofy in tow.
"Mr. Clayton," said Jane bit disturbed.
"Sora!" shouted Goofy excited to see that his friend is okay. Sora rushes over and locks hands with Donald.
"Goofy! Donald!" Sora and Donald realize what they're doing and part, crossing their arms to Goofy's surprise. They scowl with their backs turned.
"I found these clowns not far off camp. After I learned we could communicate. I interrogated them and no doubt they're not from our world or this one. They are unknown to us."
"Clayton," mumbled Tarzan.
Goofy trying to ease the tension "Sora, where's the ship?"
Sora still holding a grudge against Donald was reminded about the situation. "The ship I don't know when I woke up I was in an old tree house. I don't - Wait Jiminy. Is he with you?"
The gang looked at each other in fear. "Gawrsh no. Jiminy usually rides with you."
Donald looked to Goofy frantically. "Okay, Maybe he's with the ship. If he got lost like us well. Being he's literally like a bug in the jungle. We would never find him. He can't fend for himself. He'll get eaten or stomped on."
Sora desperate for help ran over to Tarzan. "Tarzan you have to help us. Our friend could be in trouble. Have you seen a red object in the forest.
"Red object. Their ship perhaps?" thought Jane.
"Tarzan remember large boom. So he see what it is. Saw a giant red thing trapped in a tree." The ape man mumbled.
Sora was relieved, "Really where is it. Take us to it."
"Hmph" Tarzan agreed. The gang ran out of the tent quickly. Jane and Clayton still concerned with who these strangers are called out, "Wait don't go."
Sora being the stubborn head he is did not stop. He sprinted down the road as fast as he could. "Sora let Tarzan lead the way," recommended Goofy.
Sora stopped running and remarked, "Right, sorry guys." After speaking Donald and Goofy ran into Sora. Causing the three to catapult straight into a wooden pole.
They collapsed on top of each other with Sora at the bottom then Donald, then Goofy. Sora threw them off. He and Donald glared at the other until Goofy sat up cutting off their eye line. They look around to see Tarzan far away in another direction looking at them twisting his head to the left. They got up and ran over to him. They preceded back into the jungle in search of their friend. Clayton and Jane walked out of their tent hoping to catch the gang before they leave. Unfortunately, they were too late. The four friends have already left.
People from the camp all began to come out to see what the commotion was about. "Jane, my dear what going on?" Jane turned to see her Father a short bald old man with an elderly voice.
"Mr. Porter I fear we may have an issue we need to discuss," said Clayton staring out into the jungle. Two individuals walked up to Clayton. They appeared different from the rest of the crowd. One was a man with long red hair. He wore a mix of red and light green colored clothes. The other was a woman with long shiny blonde hair. She wore a completely white jump suit with an opening from her neck to her belly button. Placed on her face was a crescent moon mark circling her right eye.
Clayton went on to explain to the residents who these strange people were. After going over everything with them no one knew what to think. "But how can that be? Britannia is the only known world that has the technological capabilities to travel into space," said Mr. Porter.
Clayton sneered at the man. "Well I guess you were wrong. Have you forgotten? That for every star in the sky there is another world more different then the last. You never know what is out there or what the inhabitants are capable of."
The red haired man remained silent but revealed a devilish grin. "My Lord Dagger what do you suppose we do?" asked Jane politely to the blonde woman.
"I think we need get more information. We should follow and question them," said Dagger.
"The three of us?" Clayton said. Dagger nodded. Clayton looked to the red haired man "Ralum."
He giggles a bit and looks back at Clayton. "Sure, this could be interesting."
