AN: I'm so sorry to my reviewers! I forgot to put up a new chappie last week! I'm so sorry! So, to make up for it I'm posting two new chappies in a row! By the way, I said this before and I just want to make sure people remember: I don't go to all the worlds! It was starting to become tedious so I don't have a lot of the worlds. I think I stop after Atlantica and then go on to Hollow Bastion. Please don't be mad! I want you to be happy!

Chapter Five: Philoctetes is no fun!
"We're almost to the next world!" Donald told everyone. He steered the gummi ship left and landed in Olympus Coliseum.
"Can I come out this time?" Iqui asked.
"You've been asking that ever since we left Deep Jungle! Every time it's been no. You think we're gonna say yes this time! Well, it's still no!" Sora said, annoyed by his sister.
"Man, sometimes I think you're going backwards in the maturing process!"
"Soooo.....can I go?"
"Aaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!! You're driving me crazy!" Sora ran as quickly as he could so he could escape Iqui's annoyance power. Vern, Sora, Donald, and Goofy walked up to the Coliseum Gates and entered in. There they met Phil, the short, fat, and grumpy goat man.
"Excuse me...uh, we were just wondering if you had seen any of our friends. There's Riku, Kai-"
"I don't have time to hear you kid. I gotta get ready for the games." Phil said (remember, I said he was grumpy).
"The games? What games?" Sora asked.
"Ugh" Phil grunted, obviously annoyed. "The games are held here in the Olympus Coliseum. Anyone can enter and compete for the title of champion."
"Anyone?"
"Well, not anyone. You have to be a hero, and get a pass."
"Well, we're heroes!" Sora said.
"Psshh....yah right! You folks....heroes? No way are you getting into the games!"
"Come on Sora, he's not worth our time!" Donald said, persistent to find King Mickey.
"We are heroes! We have to prove it!" Sora said. But Donald took Sora outside the gates. They were getting ready to leave when Hades approached them.
"Hey wait! I couldn't help but overhear your dilemma. I have a pass that I can give to you, free of charge." Hades said. He put his hand on Sora's shoulder.
"Let's get out of here, this guy's a freak!" Donald whispered.
"We'll take it." Sora said, grabbing the pass and running back to Phil. "Look, we have a pass. Now you have to let us in the games!"
"What? How'd you get that? Well, alright. I suppose you guys can get a few pointers from Hercules." There was a large thud outside, and Hercules was yelling. "Oh, here he is now. Hey Herc, I-"
"Phil! Hades let out the Cerberus!"
"What? Aw man!" Phil stamped his foot- er hoof.
"Come on! This is our chance to prove ourselves!" Sora said. "We don't need Herc! We're heroes too!"
"Wait Sora, come back!" Donald yelled but Sora was already outside. He had nothing to do but follow him. The Cerberus was a huge, three-headed dog, but no commands could tame this pooch. Everyone had to learn the Cerberus's tactics. The three heads would bite, send pools of darkness that zeroed in on them, shoot fireballs, and create huge earthquakes. This was definitely not like the fight against Sabor. The Cerberus was stronger, and it would take more than just strength to defeat it. Sora and Goofy climbed on the Cerberus's back. Goofy attacked the back of the heads with his shield while Sora cast Fire and tried to attack with combos.
Vern and Donald were assigned ground duty. With their magic they were able to stun the Cerberus many times. But the pools of darkness wouldn't stop. Donald was able to climb on the Cerberus's back just in time, but Vern was not so lucky. The pools of darkness would close in on her and she had no where to go. She nearly got knocked out and was on the verge of fainting. Sora decided to divert the pools of darkness away from Vern and towards him. His plan had worked, and Goofy was able to bring Vern up on the Cerberus's back. Donald cast Fire, and he could tell that the Cerberus was weak. He stopped creating earthquakes and fireballs, and he knew that Sora had to make the last hit. Sora dodge rolled to the side of the Cerberus and gave it all he had. The Cerberus was defeated!
"I can't believe you guys pulled it off! Is everyone okay?" Phil asked.
"Vern is hurt pretty bad. She got hit with the pools of darkness." Sora explained.
"Ooh, that's not good." Phil looked worried.
"Why?" "
"Oh, well, being hit with darkness is never a good thing. Getting close to so much evil is intense."
"Garsh, will she be alright?" Goofy said.
"She should be. But you shouldn't make her fight if you plan to. The most important thing she needs right now is rest. It's a good thing she didn't get knocked out."
"Well, we beat the Cerberus didn't we?" Sora said, ready to wipe the salt off Phil's shoulder.
"Yah, you did. Ya know what? You guys aren't that bad. And for that, I'll have to give you all your heroes license, you're junior heroes here at the Olympus Coliseum."
"Wow, thanks!" Sora proudly accepted the honor of course.
"Now don't forget, you can compete in the games. The Pegasus Cup is coming up soon. We'll keep you posted."
"See, Donald, I told you, it was worth it. We are heroes." Sora said.
Donald still seemed down. "Well, you may be, but I won't call myself a hero until I find King Mickey and get him back to the kingdom safe and sound."
"I understand. Well, can you at least say that you've done some heroic things?"
"Yah." Everyone boarded the ship. Donald steered the gummi ship for the next world.
"What happened to Vern? Is she dead?" Iqui asked.
Sora wished that Iqui was the one who had nearly fainted. At least she wouldn't be annoying him. "Noo...she's not dead!!! She's just really tired, nearly got knocked out. She got too close to the darkness, to the evil."
"Really?" Iqui said. She moved closer to Vern and reached her hand out to her.
"Iqui stop!!!" Sora yelled.
"What? What?" Iqui screamed, startled.
"Vern's already been close to enough evil."
"But I'm not- hey...that wasn't funny!"
"Then why are we all laughing!" Everyone was laughing, except for Vern who was sleeping, and Iqui who didn't know how to take a joke.
"You're so mean to me! I wanna go home!" Iqui started crying.
"Hey, I'm sorry. But you know when those opportunities just come up and you don't want to pass it by? Hey look, why don't you make fun of me?" Sora reasoned, hoping to cheer Iqui up. It always worked when he'd let her make fun of him or give him a good punch.
"Um, okay! But, I'd like to catch you off guard. It'll be sweeter that way." Sora laughed. "Alright."
"Hmmm...let's go back to Traverse Town. We need stronger weapons and more items." Donald explained.
"Alright, that's fine. We do need something for Vern." Sora said. The gummi ship turned around and headed back to Traverse Town. "Man, look at all those Heartless ships! More and more are coming."
Thanks for reading! You make me feel good!
