Well, here's chapter 9/10!
The group got into the ship and blasted off into the unknown…wait never mind they know the planets. "So, where to now?" Donald asked.
"Why don't we go visit Aladdin in Agrabah?" Sora asked.
"That's fine with me." Donald said.
"Hey, Riku can I talk to you?" Sora asked. Riku raised an eyebrow but followed Sora. Once in Sora's room, he turned to Riku, "How did you know I was distressed?"
Riku was wide eyed. He didn't know that Sora knew about him talking to Cloud, "Uh, when we fuse, I can see your thoughts."
Sora looked down to the ground, he didn't know what to say "I guess it's okay it helped me see what kind of wimp I was being."
"You always were a wimp, no matter what we did I beat you, remember the score? 20-0 me?"
"You know what? Shut up."
"We're getting close to Agrabah!" Donald exclaimed.
With that, Donald landed the ship on the hot desert sand and the door opened and the heat instantly filled the room. "Ah, it's too hot outside." Sukai said, "What do you expect? Nice mild temperatures? This is the desert!" Kihaku exclaimed. "Blondes." He whispered. "Hey, you take that back!" Sukai yelled.
"Make me!" Sukai took out his keyblade and ran after Kihaku but Sora got between them and stopped Sukai from hitting Kihaku. "Look, calm down the heat is affecting you two." Sora said. "Let's just get into Agrabah before we die out here." So, Sukai put away his keyblade and the group continued on to Agrabah. With each step their feet sunk into the hot white sand, the sun beating down on them with immense heat. Then, night fell and the heat disappeared to be replaced with freezing cold. "What is up with the temperatures here?" Riku asked. "We're going to have to stop here for the night," Sora said, "Donald, could you get a fire started?" So, Donald tried to start a fire using the sand, but instead he made glass. Suddenly, they heard a noise, like a group of horses coming right at them. Everyone went behind a rock that was there and saw a group of men that seemed to follow one person, behind the men on horses was a huge bounty of gold, double the size of the group itself. "Let's follow them," Riku said. They started to follow the group until something flew over their heads and hit Goofy on the head. "Oh sorry," the person said, and they looked up to see Aladdin. "Sora! I need your help, you too Goofy and Donald." The three of them nodded, and hopped onto the carpet, "What about us?" Sukai asked. "Just head toward Agrabah, make sure Jasmine is safe." Aladdin said. "What?" Riku said, "It'll take forever to get there!" Genie then caught up with Aladdin. "Al! What are you doing?" Genie asked. "Genie just take them back to Agrabah, before anyone sees!" With that Genie transported the others while Aladdin, Sora, Donald, and Goofy followed the group of men. "Why are you chasing them?" Sora asked,
"They're a band of thieves. They took my wedding present for Jasmine from me."
"Uh, wut was it?" Goofy asked.
"A beautiful jewel rose made of rubies and emeralds."
"Wow…" the three of them said in awe.
Aladdin smiled, "Wait, carpet stop!"
"Whoa what's,"
"Shhhhh, quiet they've stopped." They looked to see that the hoard of men stopped at a seabank and it seemed as though they would not be able to go across. Then, they saw the man in the front raise his hand and say something. The waters moved to the side the rock across from them began to open and the hoard rode on. "This is our chance, go carpet!" Carpet flew off behind the hoard. As they got into the opening though, the water started closing in. "Go faster!" the water boomed with each crashing wave as they were drawing closer to the opening in the cave, they saw that it was closing too. They flew faster and faster and as the opening was closing they flew through the crack. Carpet stopped at the entrance and they saw the magnificent cave. Each wall was covered with jewels and gold, a treasure chest at each corner of the cave, the hoard was around one person with a blue cloak, and part of it was over his face. While Carpet stayed at the entrance, the others went to hide and see who these guys were. The one in the middle spoke up, "My friends! We have found the Oracle's staff in our treasure from Agrabah! Now, let us see where our treasure is!" As he said this he raised the staff, "Oracle, where is the Disappearing Island?" (I didn't see the whole movie, only parts) Suddenly, there was a bright light that filled the room everyone shielded their eyes. After the light was gone, a white woman with an orb of light in her hands and blank white eyes and as she spoke she seemed to have a far away voice, "The island is a moving one, only to be seen by man once, if you seek it you must be prepared, call upon me again when you are ready." Then, she disappeared. "What's that suppose to mean?" The man in the middle looked to see who spoke up, and a large man stepped out. His skin was pale, as though he's been dormant all his life, hit teeth were a dark yellow, his mustache went down past his chin, his eyes were like hawk eyes, always looking around, in his hand were some gold claws. "What did she mean prepare?" He said, "We've been ready for years, let's go now!" Aladdin then turned to Abu "Okay, this is our chance, go look for the flower." He whispered and Abu nodded as he went towards their treasure. The man in the middle spoke up again, "Now now, we must do what the oracle says, for they know what will happen to all of us."
"But why listen to the stupid oracle. We need to go now!"
"Now, settle down, we must be prepared because most of us will probably die along the journey, but if we prepare, then we will be okay."
"Hey! There's a monkey in our treasure!" Three men yelled simultaneously. Everyone looked to see Abu holding the jewel flower in his hand. "Get it!" Aladdin and everybody else ran for the exit as Abu caught up to them. They got on Carpet and were going to fly off, but the wall was closed. "What did he say?" Sora asked. Aladdin was thinking he didn't know what to say, "Uh, open? Reveal? OPEN SAYS ME." The wall started to open up as the hoard was running behind them but once it was wide enough to go through Carpet went full speed out of the cave and out into the sky, back to Agrabah. "That was close," Donald said. "And this time we didn't muddle with it, ahyuck." Goofy said, "Meddle!" Donald corrected. "Well, at least we now have this," Aladdin said as Abu gave him the flower. "Now to give it to Jasmine." And with that they headed toward the palace, but back at the cave. "Who was that boy and how did he know the password?" the three thieves asked. The man in the cloak who was their leader spoke up, "That was my son." At the palace, Aladdin gave Jasmine his wedding present to her. "Here Jasmine, I got this for you." He held out the jewel flower, "Oh, Aladdin it's beautiful!" she said taking it and putting it in a vase. "You get me the best things." She said kissing him, "BLEH!" everyone else yelled, except Goofy who covered his eyes. After a while Aladdin came outside, "Hey, Sora do your friends want to join us for our wedding dinner?" Sora looked at everybody and they all said yes, so they went to dinner with Aladdin and Jasmine. Miles away in the desert sand the thieves were getting ready to ride back to Agrabah to get revenge on the monkey, and his master. "He must have gone to Agrabah, that's the only place near here that is a town." The man with the golden claws said manically. The leader spoke again, "I will go alone. I must talk to him man to man. Sa'luk you and the others stay here." Sa'luk looked at him and said, "Cassim I want to go too, I want to take my claws and…"
"That's exactly why you can't go Sa'luk, you're too dangerous," Cassim said as he mounted his horse, "you'll draw too much attention, plus the people have seen all of your faces and not mine. Now do as I said and stay here." And with that he rode off to the darkness of the cool desert. Sa'luk growled and turned, cutting the man behind him. The others went to help the man, but Sa'luk walked away to stand against a rock. "Stupid Cassim, he let's his heart get in the way of things."
"The heart is always the flaw." Someone said.
Sa'luk looked around and raised his claws, "Who's there?"
"Put your so called weapon down, it's no use against me." A man walked from behind the rock, "I am Axel, and if you try to attack me you will pay with your life."
"What do you want?" Sa'luk asked.
"I want a certain person out of the way."
"Who? If you mean the kid and his monkey then I can't help you there."
"No, I mean the other kid with him, the one with the brown hair."
Sa'luk looked at him with hungry eyes, "I'm listening,"
"You see the kid's name is Sora, and he is trying to ruin everything in my plan."
"Go on,"
"If you kill him for me, then I'll kill the other kid and Cassim, that way you'll be leader, but you must kill Sora first."
"Alright I'll do it now." Sa'luk said as he started for Agrabah.
"Wait, first you must attain a power, this is no ordinary kid." Axel then raised his arms and Sa'luk looked down to see darkness covering him, with a smile on his face. At the place, Aladdin, Sora, and the others were enjoying a wonderful feast with the sultan. "Oh, it's wonderful to finally meet you Sora, and your friends, Aladdin has told me so much about you!"
"Well, he has helped us a few times with stuff." Sora said, grinning.
"Oh, I do love a good story!" the sultan said.
"Really? Then let me tell you his story!" everyone looked to see that Jiminy had hopped out and was standing in front of the sultan.
"Oooo! I would love to hear the story please tell it to me!"
"Well, you see it started when Sora was just a boy of fourteen and…"
"Hey, Aladdin, can I talk to you in private?" Sora whispered. Aladdin nodded and followed while Jiminy entertained the sultan. Once outside Sora spoke, "Aladdin, have you been seeing any of those heartless guys here lately?"
"No, why?"
"I was wondering cause I'm looking for parts of a keychain and it seems as though that the heartless is connected to them."
"Okay, I'll be on the look out for them." Aladdin said. Suddenly they heard someone scream.
"Who was that?" Sora asked.
"Jasmine…" Aladdin ran inside with Sora, once they were inside, they saw what made her scream, the thief from the cave returned to get his jewel. Aladdin jumped in front of the thief and spread out his arms, "If you want anything from here, you're going to have to go through me." Aladdin said, waiting for the worst. At that moment the thief hugged Aladdin, "Son, it's been too long." Aladdin was shocked, "Son?" The thief removed his mask to show that he was Cassim. Aladdin looked at his face and knew that this was his father. "Well, son it looks like you've done better than me." Cassim said.
"Nah, I've had some help along the way."
"Well, I'm sure you'll make a very lucky woman happy someday."
"Actually, Jasmine and I are being wed soon."
"Really, who is this Jasmine?"
"I am sir," Jasmine stood up and walked over to Cassim.
"Well, it is a pleasure to meet such a fine lady like you." Cassim said, kissing her hand.
"Well, now I know where Aladdin gets his charm from," she said, blushing, "why don't you stay here till the wedding is over?"
Cassim looked at Aladdin, who had a smile on his face, so with that, "Sure it would be a pleasure."
"Then I'll take you to your room." Aladdin said. Sora was about to follow him, but Riku held him back, so Aladdin walked with Cassim alone. Along the way, Cassim asked Aladdin something, "So, why did you take part of my group's treasure earlier today?" Aladdin stopped, and turned to his father, "How did you know it was me?"
"I could see your face when you were trying to run, and the password only works for someone in our family."
"Well, there was something in your treasure that was mine to give to Jasmine, so I had to steal it back."
Cassim walked up to Aladdin and put his hands on his shoulders, "It is alright, I understand. Now I have something to tell you."
"What?"
"Do you want to come with me to receive my treasure from the disappearing island?"
"What treasure?" Aladdin asked, with a tiny excitement in his voice.
"Midas's hand, anything it touches turns to gold. It is my dream to have it, and I probably need your help."
"No, I won't help you." Aladdin said disappointingly.
"Why not?"
"Cause I live the straight and narrow now, and gold is not something I want at the moment."
"Fine, if you won't help me, then I'll go alone." Cassim then walked away. Aladdin looked down, sad that the only time that he's seen his father in a long time. He leaves because of some argument. Suddenly he heard a scream, Aladdin ran back to where everybody was having dinner. When he got there he saw Sora, Riku, Sukai, and Kihaku with their keyblades out and a big pale guy with Jasmine in his arm, and his bloody golden claws at her neck. "Let Jasmine go!" Aladdin yelled.
"Only if you tell me where Cassim is, then I'll let the girl go."
"Never, I'll never tell you where he is!" Aladdin yelled.
"Fine, the girl gets it."
"Wait Sa'luk stop right there." Cassim said, walking out of the shadows. Sa'luk threw Jasmine to the ground and grabbed Cassim by the arm. "Now, let's go find the disappearing island." Sa'luk then took Cassim and ran out of the palace. Aladdin ran towards Jasmine, "Jasmine, are you okay?"
"Yeah, go and get your father, please."
Aladdin turned toward Sora and Riku, "Come on guys, let's go. Genie, let's go find my father."
"Whatever you say Al," Then, Genie used his magic to follow Sa'luk and Cassim. At the shore Sa'luk dragged Cassim into a boat and tied him up at the mast. "What happened to the others?" Cassim asked.
Sa'luk smiled before he answered his question, "I killed them all, they were useless, I have a new crew now." After that the heartless came up from the deck, they wore red bandanas and had swords bigger than they were. "Now, these are useful."
"Dad!" Aladdin yelled, riding on carpet with his sword in his hand. The heartless jumped at Aladdin, Sora, and Riku and attacked. Sora jumped over Aladdin and slashed the heartless with his two keyblades, and Riku took out whatever was left while Aladdin ran after Sa'luk. Sa'luk saw Aladdin coming and summoned up more heartless to hold him back. "Give back my father!" Aladdin said trying to break free. Sa'luk just laughed, "So, the prince of thieves thinks he can fight me." He then turned to Cassim, "Call upon the Oracle now or your son dies."
Cassim looked down, he knew he was defeated, "Oracle, I am ready, where is the disappearing island?" The blinding white light came again and the Oracle appeared, "Follow the light. It will guide you to the disappearing island till dawn." Then, the oracle became a white light and flew to the area where the island is. Sa'luk smiled and summoned more heartless to get the ship going and the heartless threw Aladdin down and followed their master. "That son of a jackal, he'll pay for this." Aladdin said, getting up. "You okay Aladdin?" Sora asked.
"I'm fine, Genie, take us to the disappearing island."
"Right away, Al." Then, he turned into an old steamboat (Steamboat Willie) and everybody hopped on as Genie went off to follow the light.
As Sa'luk was closing in to the island Cassim was trying to break free from the rope using his knife. "Ah, I can see the island now, Cassim, today is my lucky day." Cassim didn't pay attention but cut himself free and started swimming to where the light was. "Cassim!" Sa'luk yelled angrily, then he summoned some heartless that looked like jellyfish and they went after Cassim. Once Cassim got to where the light was, the water started to bubble and tops of buildings started to appear, trees, the buildings were a light tan color and then the moss started to appear under the buildings, once the whole island was above water, it showed that it was actually the back of the tortoise. Cassim was on top of the tortoise's shell. Cassim then started to run up the steps, but Sa'luk used the power of the heartless and jumped up to where Cassim was. "Now you shall," Suddenly Aladdin came out of nowhere and kicked Sa'luk right on the head. "Come on Dad let's get that treasure of yours." Aladdin said. And they headed for the entrance.
Once they got to the inside, they saw a magnificent sight, at every corner there were stone eagles, in the middle was a golden hand with a statue in the palm of it, holding Midas's hand. Then, Aladdin felt something on his feet and looked down to see that some water was coming in, "What's going on?"
"It's sinking back to the floor, why do you think they call this the 'disappearing island'? Come on, let's hurry." And Cassim started to climb one of the stone eagles and Aladdin followed. Cassim stood on the head of the statue and Aladdin was beside him. Cassim looked toward the statue and was ready to run and jump for it. "This would be much easier if I was much young…" Suddenly Aladdin ran past Cassim and jumped, he got close and was about to fall, but he grabbed onto the hand and pulled himself up. "See, we were meant to do this together!" Aladdin called out to his father. Cassim smiled and Aladdin walked over to the statue, "Careful! Don't grab the hand it will turn you to gold!" Cassim yelled Aladdin grabbed it by the wooden handle and carefully pulled it out of the stone arm. "Catch!" Aladdin yelled as he threw the hand to his father. Cassim looked around to find something to catch it with, but he used his robe and as the hand fell into the robe, the robe became solid gold. "Behold the power of Midas's hand!" Cassim said as he hit the statue he was on. The statue's head started to glow as it became gold, the others soon followed and became solid gold, the water coming from the mouths of the statue became gold, and the whole room became gold. "Now Cassim give me the hand or your son dies." Cassim looked towards Aladdin to see that Sa'luk was right there facing him. "Don't worry dad, I can take him." Aladdin said. "No," Cassim said, as he threw the hand towards Sa'luk. Sa'luk pushed Aladdin out of the way and grabbed the hand and started laughing. Then, something started to glow and he looked down toward his legs and noticed that they were started to turn to gold. He was about to scream, but before he even let out a cry, he was solid gold. The hand fell out of his hands and he fell off the giant hand and into the golden water. Aladdin tore off a peace of his clothes and carefully wrapped the hand, as he wrapped the hand the cloth became gold. "Come on Aladdin!" Cassim said as he dove into the golden water. Aladdin followed and started climbing one of the walls with Cassim behind him. Cassim was having trouble getting up the wall, "Dad! Grab my hand!" Aladdin said, stretching out his arm. "No, son, all I have to do is get rid of some extra weight," Cassim answered as he took of the golden cape and it fell to the bottom. "I was never into gold cloaks anyway." They continued to climb as the water rose up. In the ceiling was an opening that was big enough for them to go through. Once they got through they stood and looked over the horizon. Aladdin removed the hand from his belt and gave it to his father. "Well, here's your treasure."
"What? This stupid thing? Son, I realize now that I've had my treasure this whole time, you. This can rest at the bottom of the ocean!" and Cassim threw the hand into the ocean. "Now, lets go home." And Aladdin called for Carpet and they rode off to Agrabah.
"You may kiss the bride." After that, Aladdin and Jasmine kissed and they were wed. Sora, Riku, Sukai, Kihaku, Donald and Goofy were the best men. Cassim was in the back, making sure he stayed out of sight so that he could not be turned in for stealing. At the reception, Sora heard someone calling his name and looked to see Cassim making a gesture to 'come here'. So Sora walked over and Cassim talked to him. "I want to thank you, you have helped my son through some troubled times, and I would like to give you this," Cassim sticks out his hand and drops a quarter of a silver heart in his hand. "Aladdin tells me that you like to collect this kind of thing, and I happened to find this in my treasure before I gave it back."
"Wow, thanks, why don't you join the reception?"
Cassim chuckled, "Ah, no I must be off before the royal guards know I'm here."
"Alright, hope to see you again." Sora said as Cassim mounted his horse. "Goodbye Sora." Then, Cassim rode off, following the moonlight. Sora walked back to the reception and went over to Aladdin, "Hey, sorry, we have to go."
"Oh, that's alright come anytime. I'd like to meet your wife." Sora smiled and gathered everybody up and they boarded the ship.
"So what now?" Donald asked.
"To Atlantica!" Sora excitedly said.
"Okay, what about Neverland?"
"After Atlantica."
"Fine." And Donald used the warp drive this time to get to Atlantica.
They plunged into the depths of the ocean with Sora first as the shark boy, then Donald as an Octopus, Goofy as a sea turtle, Riku as another shark boy, Sukai as a flounder, and Kihaku as a crab. "Why does Riku get to be a merman? Why am I a stupid crab?"
"Cause you have red hair and that goes with your shell, now stop complaining and let's get to the Palace." Sora said, leading the way. As they swam, they looked around and enjoyed the view of the ocean. Sukai looked around and saw a dark figure swimming around. It was big and had white teeth that seemed to glow in the darkness. Suddenly it went after Sukai and he screamed everybody turned to see a shark had Sukai in its mouth. Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Riku took out their weapons, but Kihaku was too small to take his out, so he hid behind a rock. Sora swam toward the shark with his blade in hand. Riku swam up, and Donald and Goofy floated on opposite sides of the shark. First, Goofy went in and knocked Sukai out of its mouth, then Donald froze the shark and last, Sora and Riku came from different sides and struck the block of ice, cracking it and making it shatter into hundreds of pieces, and one of them was black. Sora swam after it and noticed that it was part of the keychain. He attached it to what he had already and started swimming back toward where they landed. "Uh, Sora dontcha want to go to the palace?" Goofy asked.
"No time, let's get to Neverland." Sora yelled back, and everyone followed.
"What?" Namine asked. "What happened?"
"After my water broke they took me into their operating room and I had my child, it was a boy which means his name is Hakumei."
"Why?"
"I don't know why they took him." Kairi was still crying.
"No, the name, why Hakumei?"
"It means 'twilight' and we thought it sounded nice."
"Well, did you get to see him?"
"Yes, of course since he was just born, I couldn't see his hair color, but his eyes are just like his fathers, but with specks of purple from me."
"Wow, I hope that he gets your brains though, you don't want another stupid one running around the house."
"Hey! Sora's smart, he just doesn't show it all the time."
"Well, do you know anything about why they could have wanted Hakumei?"
"All I heard is that he was 'the one'. Whatever that means. I hope Sora's okay."
"We're close to Neverland!" Donald yelled. Everyone walked up to the front of the ship and looked out to see the world, on the top, Big Ben, and on the bottom was the dreaded pirate ship of Captain Hook. "Well, let's land then," Sora said. They landed the ship on an island in Neverland and started looking around, they have never been in this part of the world before since most of them was on a ship when they landed onto Neverland. As they walked they kept hearing noises, as though something was moving in the bushes and trees, "What is it?" Kihaku asked. Suddenly, they heard a type of war cry "Coo coo coo Coo!" (or something like that) and they saw ten boys fly out of the trees and bushes and attack. Everybody pulled out their keyblades and blocked their attacks. "Sora?" Peter said when Sora blocked his attack. "Sorry, we thought you were some other group, okay boys back off." Once Peter said that, all the boys backed away. "How are you Sora?"
"Fine, who did you think we were?"
"Some of Hook's men, they were after this." Peter reached into a pocket in his shirt and pulled out the final piece of the keychain.
"Hey, can I take that off of your hands?" Sora asked.
"Why?"
"Okay, look, I need that so that I can save my wife, Kairi, so can I have it?"
"You grown ups, always doing something, here." And Peter threw the keychain at Sora.
"Thanks, sorry, but I have to leave!"
"Okay, bye, next time try to bring your wife, I'd like to meet her."
"Okay, sorry that we couldn't help!" and Sora ran back to the ship with the group following him.
"So that's why you've been taking broken parts, to make this keychain." Riku said.
"Yep, now Donald, take us to where we fought Ansem." Sora said.
"Okiey dokey." And Donald flew the ship into that general direction.
"Now, let's see what this keychain does." And Sora attached the keychain to his keyblade. It glowed brightly and started taking a different form the hilt turned into a heart, the blade becoming straight and smooth, and the end, another heart. When the light was gone, it showed the keyblade, it was half silver and half black, the hilt itself was on one side, silver and the other side the heartless symbol, the same thing as the point. Goofy jumped in surprise and kneeled in front of Sora, "My lard."
"Lord!" Donald corrected.
"What?" Sora asked.
"You are the new king." Goofy and Donald said at the same time. "The Twilight blade has chosen you."
Sora had a confused look on his face.
That is not a cliffy! It tells you what it is and what it makes Sora! Sorry for the long update, I've been busy with marching band and school (which has drained all of my creativity) but this is about 9 pages so, it's a little longer than some of the others. And I know that Agrabah was a long world, but that was my favorite Disney cartoon! Thanks for reading this far, look out for the next chapter!
