Arrastrago: So now there's another kid with us, and that is me! The writer!

Bellatrix: Please don't tell me you're a mary sue…

Arrastrago: No actually, after all, it's Josh and the Hero of the next world that save me from becoming dinner

Mistress 9: that's reassuring….

For the next few hours the crew of Lorenzo took a well-needed rest. Kyle was skimming through a few books that were found in the glove compartment while Kat took a seat next to her cousin so they could switch controls whenever the other got bored.

As Kyle flipped through the pages of the foreign book he though it best to break the silence.

"So, Josh and Peaches are having the time of their lives in the Bat Gummi, do they have any idea where we're going to next?"

"Probably not," Alex sighed at the situation, "Katherine, look outside and see what they're up too."

Kat swung her seat around and looked out the side window. A second later her eyes bulged to the size of hubcaps.

"It gets worse Alex."

"What do you mean by that?" she slowly turned around as she and Kyle came to Kat's side and looked out the window.

"HOLY SHIT!"

"Are they…" Kyle's face was twisted with disgust

"Yes… they're lighting their farts on fire…"

A brilliant flash went off near the bat Gummi and it veered into a sharp right turn. The three cringed again.

"That must have been a potent one.."

"I knew Tommy was an asshole," Alex growled through gritted teeth, "But I never knew…"

"Hold up!" Kat continued to watch the Bat Gummi as it smacked headlong into a wall and started to plummet down to the next world. "Those idiots!"

"Walls just happen to be floating around in space?" Kyle gave a skeptical look as he got back into his chair and put the safety belt on, "What kind of warped universe is this anyway?"

"Never mind that! We're going to the next world!" Alex manned the controls, "hold on!"

Kat held on to the rail at the window as the ship began to swoop down into a dive.

"Perfect! Can't we just land for once?"

"We can, they can't." Alex pulled up on the controls and the Gummi Ship went back into an evened out glide across the plains of the new world. The three of them scanned the area for any signs of the downed ship. Kyle was the first to spot the smoke. Moments later they landed at the crash site.

Even though it was never a good thing to have a crash Tommy and Josh picked a good place to do it. They fortunately hit a sandy beach and the sand served as a buffer to stop their plummet with minimum damage to both the ship and themselves.

The three jumped out of Lorenzo and ran over to the Bat Gummi. They helped Josh and Tommy out of the wreckage and surveyed the land.

"Well despite the crash," Josh stopped at where the tide was, "What world is this?"

"Maybe," Kyle rubbed his head, "the land of this world was mostly plains, nothing else, so maybe the world is-"

"Underwater?" Kat finished his sentence.

"Yeah… which means that how are we going to get there when we don't have any scuba gear or air tanks?"

"Oh can it Captain Obvious!" Tommy spat at the comment.

"Great" Kyle said with a bit of sarcasm, "Since we have nothing better to do then bitch at each other, why don't we try and find a way so we can breath underwater?"

Kat and Alex went into the ocean so that they were up to their knees. Alex folded her arms and looked to the horizon while Kat fell backwards and floated on the thin body of water she was on.

"Sorry guys, it's a no go, I don't think Laguna, or whoever I am has the magic cut out for this."

"And this is going to shock you," Kat craned her head to look at the boys, "But I'm scanning my memory for spells and I've got nothing either."

"WHAT!" Kyle's mouth dropped to the ground, "You're Maleficent! You're a sorceress! Can't you just take a bash? I dunno… like…"

He started waving his arms in the air and made funny faces to accompany them.

"Iki tiki neeha aka tiki baba Zip a dee doo dah meeka nala queesta under da sea!"

There was the sound of five cracks and a cloud of smoke covered the surprised boys, Alex fell forward with a yelp and Kat flailed around before treading water to where Alex was.

"Alex!" she pulled her up so she could breath, "you okay?"

"I think so…but.. what about the boys?"

The two turned and watched as the smoke cleared. When it did they promptly started laughing their heads off. Kyle had been turned into a sea turtle. The only human aspects of him were his head and that his shield was stuck to his shell. Tommy now had a dolphin tail and was swearing incoherently. Josh in the meantime had lost his legs for a stingray's tail and he had "wings" attached to his arms.

"Now this is perfect!" Josh said irritably.

"Oh no you don't!" Tommy started flopping after Kyle who was inching towards the surf. All the time Alex and Kat were laughing their heads off at the display. Tommy decided to turn his attention to those who were already in the water.

"Shut up Alex! And you too Katherine!" I could use a little help here!"

Josh and Kyle had already made it to the water while Tommy continued shouting and flailing his Keyblade at Kat and Alex. Alex nudged Kat and grinned.

"He's right, we should help him."

As Tommy continued to flail around and curse out the others he didn't notice what looked like a black tail inch out of the sea.

He only noticed when it grabbed a hold of him and threw him sky high.

The air was full of laughter as the four were brought to tears watching Tommy fly up only to come crashing down into the ocean below. Tommy popped up a slip second later and continued with his rant.

"WHAT WAS THAT!" He pointed the keyblade at Kat who only looked back with a smug grin, "What did Kyle turn you into?"

Kat's grin widened as she plucked the black tail from the water and waved it at the angry Keybearer.

"I've got five more where these came from." Was going to be her only reply.

"Fine then," Tommy swam over and clenched a fist, "We better go and take out whoever resides here, follow me everyone!"

"Wait!" Kat started and rubbed her hands together, "I have a plan."

"And what is that then your fishiness?" commented Josh.

"The Heartless still think I'm on their side. If I can find whoever resides in this world then I can trick them into thinking I'm still with them, so, in that case, when the time is right, we jump him or her and then we can seal the world from the Heartless!"

"Sounds like a plan…" Tommy decided that it would be the better thing to do,"Just don't get yourself fried up as calamari."

Kat gave a nod and plunged beneath the surface. The others followed suit and soon they parted ways.

The cloaked figure from before shoved the foliage of Deep Jungle away from him. He cursed under his breath as his outfit hindered him in his ascent up the jungle waterfall.

"The Keybearer is making a mistake! He didn't seal the keyhole to this world!" he made his way into the caverns within the waterfall.

"They better find the one in the next world, lord knows what will happen if I don't get to it in time…" he found the passageway he was looking for and began to stroll down it.

"And then there is Katherine." He laughed to himself, "such a thoughtless girl, she'll be up to her neck in trouble soon enough… I just wish there was a way to prevent it all."

It reached the end of the cave and started to rip off several overgrown vines that seemed to be covering something. After he tore away the final vine a small keyhole shone in the darkness of the cave. He once again raised his hand.

"Lock!"

The same click, and the Keyhole was gone. He turned away.

"I will leave the rest to you, but I shall help if the circumstances are dire…"

A woman with dark hair and eyes that shone of sleep deprivation sat at a table within Hollow Bastion.

9348938493284938493849

Mistress 9: Bellatrix! What are you doing in this story?

Bellatrix: shut up you bimbo that's not me (mumbles)

4584958439584395843958943859438594

A man dressed in red pirate garbs approached and took a seat next to the woman.

"I hear the Keybearer has recently come into your world."

"I already know that!" The woman snapped back at him and turned away."The circumstances are troubling though."

"Why's that?"

"Maleficent is with them… and why is that may I ask?" she eyed him with a look that dared him to answer.

"My dear Vanessa!" the man held his arms up in. defense., "A simple warning, but.." he went back to his normal posture and leaned forward, "are you sure? Maleficent is with the Keybearer?"

"Yes!" Vanessa bolted up and threw her arms down on the table, "Our appointed leader! With the KEYBEARER OF ALL PEOPLE!" she snarled as a black tail trashed behind her.

"And it gets worse!" a man dressed in black robes with blue skin and flames for hair glided into the room.

"And how's that?" she faced the ruler of Hell and glowered at him.

"They just entered your world…" Hades made a gesture, "think you could kill him if it's not too much for an old timer like you?"

"And besides," the other man cut off Vanessa before she leapt at Hades, "that will give you the chance to see what plans Maleficent has."

Vanessa bit her lip, more tails thrashed about.

"Fine then!" She did an about face and walked out of the room.

To seal ones fate.

The same red eyed wraith watched from his perch as the black haired woman walked straight out of Hollow Bastion and made her way to the Rising Falls without flinching, not even when she walked off the edge and started to plummet to the waters below.

There was a crackling of energy and she disappeared before she hit the water. The Red eyed being gave a grin.

"Next on the chopping block now are we?" he laughed to himself
