Now, he and his family must gather all six Infinity Stones to stop them and reunite with his friends...

7. Chapter 7: The Jungle Book

I don't own Kingdom Hearts or Marvel. They are owned by Marvel, Disney, and Square Enix. And here's the next world of the old classic Disney film. The Jungle Book. I think we all know how many attempts Square Enix had tried to do this world, so why not do it for this fanfic. :D Maybe they'll do it in a sequel or spin-off sometime after Melody of Memory. Anyways, before we begin, let's reply to some reviews.

ajjr12: Animation. Because it's the original and the best. Period. And no, I'm not giving him a scar. He's supposed to be Shere Khan. Not Scar.

SORARULES23: Thank you! Glad you loved it! It's not? Then wasn't Kronk's dad was in the series too? I could be wrong though. Still enjoyed the series all the same. Especially the whole, "pull the level" gag.

NaruSaku fan in Kentucky: Thank you! It's mainly the fact, they haven't kissed yet. And the fact, Kairi was the one who offered the Paopu fruit to him. So, I imagine he's still a bit shy about the whole situation.

Dexter: Not really, just because their in space doesn't mean the Space Stone would be a perfect fit. I mean how would AUTO even use the Infinity Stone for. All he cared for was humanity's survival plus... they're already in space. I just can't think of anything he could use the Stone for. Not for a good boss fight like I did with Shere Khan for this chapter. Look, I love Wall-E as much as the next guy but it doesn't fit into my plans for this story. Oh, and one of your guesses is right. You can find out which by the end of this chapter even! :D

jeonbh94: Not that long. Just until this story's finished which won't take too much time I mean after this there's only two Disney Worlds left before all the main final chapters. You just gotta wait a bit longer. Also, SnowSpider fans will love this chapter! :D And no, actually to both questions, they actually won't fight Thanos is the final chapter because he's not the main baddie. The Master of Masters is. They will fight Thanos just not in the final chapter. And the Marvel heroes won't be helping them out for this one... except for Spider-Man. It'll be just them and the Guardians of Light.

lyokoMARVELanime: I'm glad you loved the chapter! There will be more tease to the SnowSpider ship in this chapter! And to be honest we will see more of Yozora soon. Not this chapter though but in the near future. He's actually got quite the role for this story along with the star from the Final World. ;D And yeah, I won't hold my breath with her and Hans... still going take the whole betrayal thing. Not much of a spoiler since we all know he's a bad guy. And don't worry... you're not wrong :D

Monkey D. Conan: Yes, yes you do. And her stubbornness is about to meet her match in the form of a Man-Cub. LOL. And Hans does show up again in this chapter but not nearly as long as the last one. And they'll be human in this chapter. The preview kinda confirmed that. However, they do wear different clothes to wander around the world. Even if it wasn't intentional. And yeah, you pretty much just answered your own question on Anna's take on the SnowSpider ship. LOL.

Prime's apprentice: Oh, trust me, if you thought that was good. Then love the Red vs Blue references in this chapter. ;D Trust me, you'll know when you see them. Also, nice work on the ship name for Peter and Elsa. I say it should now be a thing! From now on Peter X Elsa shall be known as SnowSpider. :D Trust me the whole clothes situation will be hilarious in this chapter! Now to answer your questions:

1. The 1967 animated version because it's the best.

2. They'll be human on this world like I said. It's mentioned in the preview. They actually have a whole clothes situation. Nobody panic, no one goes running around in their birthday suits in this chapter. Trust me, it'll be enjoyable this way.

Harold Godwinson: I know right. Emperor's New Groove is like an instant classic! I just had to do it for this story. Reality Stone fit for Yzma too! Plus, I wanted to do Ashoka as a summon since I couldn't put her in the Clone Wars chapter. I'll update a Spider's Frozen Adventure II sometime after this story is complete.

TheCalamityCoyote: Wow! Thanks! I try my best! And don't worry, I've been trying to keep errors to a minimum and I've been going back to fix the errors I've made in the previous chapters. So, with any luck, this will be my best-looking fanfic yet. Also, I do have another fan-favorite summon coming. In the next chapter anyway, he's a classic by the way so I know everyone will love him. Hans actually is working for someone... you just need to figure out who he's working for. Although, I think you might have a pretty good idea after this chapter. And I'll try thanks! I hope you enjoy what's to come.

JPrime: ...yeah, the only reason I'm answering to your 'review' here is that I can't PM you. The review section is for reviews for the story only. Not for requests, to do other stories. I write what I feel like and I feel like finishing this story. If you want to more about the story you want to read, please set up your PM account so you can ask me through there. Please.

Now then with that out of the way, here's the next chapter! :D

Chapter 7: The Jungle Book

Time had passed since the Guardians had discussed what they'd do with the information they learned from Sora. So far, they weren't having any luck. Merlin and even Master Yen Sid were completely clueless about who was the mastermind behind Xehanort and the Keyblade War. Eventually, they realized they're only hope of learning what was happening was with Sora himself.

So, after some discussion, they formulated what kind of questions Riku could ask Sora. They realized in order to help him, they needed more information from him. They knew Sora would try to figure out a way out the moment he learned of Kairi's condition. He might have learned more about the situation he was in as well.

Once the questions had been planned out, they returned to Radiant Garden. They met up with Leon's group and headed to Ansem's Castle. They didn't even need to explain to Dilan and Aeleus why they were there. The guard let them into the castle as they entered the lab where Ansem the Wise, Inezo, and Even were monitoring Kairi's condition. Ansem frowned as had been two years exactly since the Princess of Heart had gone into slumber in order to find a clue for Sora. Her hair had slightly grown out since then but they made sure she treated right until she was up again.

Ansem then heard footsteps enter the lab as he turned to see the visitors. He gave them a sad smile, "Riku. Mickey. It is good to see you again."

Mickey returned with his own sad smile, "Gosh, it's good to see you too. I wish it was under better circumstances."

He then turned to see Roxas, Xion, and Naminé among the group that had entered the lab. The three former Nobodies turned to the ruler of Radiant Garden. While they had some bad history, the four had made peace with each other and became good friends since. They gave each other a nodded before Aqua looked down at Kairi, "How is she?"

Ansem frowned as Ienzo answered for him, "Physically, she has a clean bill of health. Mentally, brain activity appears normal. Emotionally, well, that's another story..."

Even as he observed the monitors added, "Before she went under, she truly believes that there's a clue somewhere inside her heart that could lead us to Sora." He then turned the group, "This you already knew."

Everyone nodded before he continued, "However, we haven't found a single clue to where Sora might be... and that there is the problem."

Goofy then pointed out, "But Riku and the Fairy Godmother found a clue to Sora inside of Riku's dreams. He even spoke to him. Shouldn't that be enough."

While the people of Radiant Garden we're overjoyed when they first learned about the good news, the scientists continued to frown, Even frowned, "I'm afraid it's not enough."

Ienzo added, "Frown what we gathered from Kairi's condition, only Sora's return himself will awaken her from her slumber. Preferably alive. If he returns to us but no longer in the land of the living while she's like this... well... we could end up losing her too."

Xion's eyes widened in horror, "So if we don't rescue Sora soon, we could end up losing Kairi too!"

Naminé reassured everyone, "No one panic. We know Sora's okay. He's just lost."

Everyone then remembered what Riku told them, well, everyone Riku had told. Ansem then asked, "Speaking of which, what did Sora say?"

Riku told them, "Brace yourselves, this is going to sound a bit nuts."

Riku then retold everything he told the Guardians of Light. Ansem and his apprentices were silent as he explained Sora's situation. When he finished, everyone stared in disbelief. Ienzo was the first to speak, "Incredible..."

"Six Stones of Infinite Power," Even muttered with great interest, "Each controlling a major power over the worlds... why if I could exam even one of those stones..."

Ienzo placed a hand on his shoulder, "Easy, Even. Believe me, I'm just as tempted as you but we had similar thoughts with hearts and Kingdom Hearts... and we both know where that led us."

Even sighed before nodding, "You're right. There are some things better left undiscovered."

"Indeed," Ansem agreed, "If we find these Infinity Stones, we must hide them in a place no one can use them. Especially with this Thanos and his Black Order out there wanting nothing but destruction and chaos."

"Not to mention this mastermind who was the true culprit of the Keyblade War," Ienzo pointed out, "Hard to believe Xehanort was nothing but a pawn this whole time."

Aeleus leaned on the wall with his arms crossed, "If he's anything like Xehanort, he's likely has backup plans for his backup plans."

Dilan nodded in agreement, "He could be planning another Keyblade War as we speak. With these Stones no less."

Ienzo then wondered out loud, "What truly puzzling is where Sora is. If what you say is true, and he's on the world of his birth, Arendelle, then we should have no problem contacting him at all." He pulled out his GummiPhone, "The GummiPhone's signal can be billions of lightyears away from this world and still receive a good signal. Unless something or someone is blocking the signal..."

Ansem nodded, "There's more going on here than we know." He then turned to Riku, "I take it that's why you're here?"

Riku nodded, "Yeah, Kairi's dreams should be able to help me reach Sora. The last time we spoke, I told him about Kairi's situation so, it's not to hard to think Sora's trying to find his way back on his old. He might even pick up more clues along the way of where he is and how we can get him back."

"Good. Something tells me that we'll be needing him again very soon," Ansem nodded, "If we are to stop both Thanos and the true culprit behind the Keyblade War."

Just then, a few sparkles of light entered the room as the Fairy Godmother's voice could be heard, "Then you'll be needing my help again." Just then, the Fairy Godmother appeared before them as she smiled, "I'm sort of an expert when it comes to dreams."

Terra and Aqua smiled to the Fairy Godmother in greetings as they've met her on the Castle of Dreams long ago. She nodded to them before walking up to Riku, "You sure you want to do this? After this, you'll have one more chance to contact him before we lose all connection from him."

Ansem wondered, "What do you mean?"

"According to her, we can only contact him three times," Riku explained, "And I only have up to five minutes per connection to talk with him before entering back to the world you came from."

Ienzo nodded understandingly, "I see. First with your dreams, then with Kairi's but who's the third's dreams we can use to contact him if we need to."

"Well, I'm hoping Sora has the answer for that too," Riku admitted, he turned to the Fairy Godmother, "I'm ready." She smiled and nodded as he went into position. He turned to the sleeping Princess of Heart as he told her, "Kairi. Help me find Sora. We need your help if we're going to get him back."

Kairi did not respond but a faint smile could be seen even as the Fairy Godmother cast the spell, "Bibidi-Bobidi-Boo!"

The spell struck both Riku and Kairi as the former dived into the dreams of Sora and traveled to wherever he was now...

---

Meanwhile, the Falcon flew through the vacuum of space as they headed to the next world. Sora was asleep on the pilot's chair as the ship was currently on autopilot. Just then faint beeping on the ship woke him up. He stretched his arms before pushing it as Rex returned, "Morning Sora."

"Morning Rex," Sora nodded, "Everything ready?"

Yeah," The Clone Captian nodded, "Everything is prepared for today but I can't help but wondering why now?"

Sora smiled as he leaned back on the chair, "It's the first time we're doing this outside the castle. I wanted this day to be special for Elsa. Anna and the others agreed with me besides, our journeys already half over." He then pulled out three of the Infinity Stones, "We just need three more and we can save the worlds and stop Thanos and the man in the black coat."

Rex pointed out, "And what about the Fortunetellers? I doubt we've seen the last of them. Or this Yozora for that matter. What's their angle in all of this?"

Sora sighed as he put the Infinity Stones away, "I don't know. Part of me hopes to see Yozora again."

That made the Clone Captian raised an eyebrow, "Um... you do realize he's tried to kill you twice now? Why..."

Sora answered, "Let's just say I made a promise to a friend."

Rex stared at Sora before nodding, "Alright, I trust you."

"Speaking of trust," Sora turned to him, "Did Anakin tell you what happened to Hans after we left with the Time Stone?"

Rex's eyes narrowed, "Yeah, as soon as we left, he vanished off the face of the planet. He didn't even bother to help General Skywalker or my brothers with the remaining Heartless."

"I knew it," Sora crossed his arms, "He doesn't care about the worlds. He's following us." He then turned to Rex, "Are your brothers okay?"

Rex smiled, "Don't worry about them. It'll take more than some Shadows to take them down. Plus, with the capture of Maul, General Skywalker was able to get some evidence off of him that could end the war and save the Republic. He even was able to confirm our part in the Sith plot. He turned to the back of his head revealing the stitches, now none of us will turn on the Republic anytime soon."

Sora smiled, "That's great!" He then frowned, "But that still doesn't answer why Hans is following us. I doubt it's because he has a crush on Anna."

"If I had to guess," Rex muttered, "It has something to do with the Stones, it seems like everyone wants to get their hands on them."

Sora pat on his pocket, "Then it's best they don't leave our sight until we find a way to hide them so no one can use them."

Just then, Elsa entered the room with a yawn, "Morning Sora. Morning Rex."

Rex nodded as Sora smiled, "Morning Elsa? How'd you sleep?"

She took a sip of her coffee as she answered, "Alright. But I kinda miss my bed. I'm not used to sleeping on literally anything like you are."

Sora reassured her, "You get used to it."

She stared at him, "You know you've done this before you were even kidnapped right?"

Sora laughed sheepishly, "Hey, you know me."

All of a sudden a faint image of Riku appeared in the room, "Sora? Sora?"

Rex quickly drew out his blaster and aimed it at Riku, however, Elsa stopped him, "Easy! He's a friend!"

"I'm here, Riku!" Sora called out getting his best friend's attention, "What's happening? Is something wrong with Kairi?"

Riku reassured him, "She's fine... well... she's still asleep waiting for you but other than that she's fine."

Sora closed his eyes before wondering, "So, what's up?"

Riku told him, "Well, I spoke to Master Yen Sid and the others but we couldn't seem to find this Arendelle. We're kinda hoping you could tell us more about the situation your in."

Elsa and Sora realized they never told Riku where Arendelle was when they last met, true they didn't know until afterward, but it would probably help them if they told him. Sora cleared his throat, "Hey, Riku? Remember that Black Box situation before the Keyblade War?"

Riku blinked before asking, "You mean the one that the Organization and Maleficent were after? What about it?"

"Well..." Sora scratched the back of his head, "We found it... kinda..."

"Really? How so?" Riku wondered before he got an awkward silence, he then realized, "Oh no, don't tell me."

"Yeah, along with many worlds and the Infinity Stones," Sora nodded, "And if we don't free them soon, it could mean the end of worlds. Both on the inside and outside."

Riku sighed, "As things weren't bad enough... but at least we know why both the Organization and Maleficent were after the box."

"Speaking of Maleficent," Elsa spoke up getting Riku's attention, "She's here too! With, I believe his name is Pete and Vanitas."

Riku was shocked by this update, "Vanitas is back too?"

Sora nodded, "Yeah, Maleficent had Pete steal one of the Replicas and was able to bring him back to help her."

Riku crossed his arms, as he asked, "Is there any good news? Have you found a way to restore the worlds?"

Sora smiled and nodded, "Yeah, the Worlds can be safely be restored with either the X-blade or all Six of the Infinity Stones."

"Well, the X-blade's not an option so I guess the Infinity Stones will have to do," Riku nodded, "And how far are you with that?"

Sora then revealed the Power, Reality, and Time Stones to Riku, "We were able to find three of them. We just need the other three."

The Keyblade Master smiled, "Good. You halfway there and now we know where you are, and why we're unable to use the GummiPhone to get to you. I'll tell the others. We'll keep an eye out for the Black Box and protect it until you get the remaining Infinity Stones."

"Sounds like a plan," Sora nodded before Elsa cleared her throat as he recalled, "Oh, yeah, could you ask Master Yen Sid about the Foretellers?"

"Foretellers?" Riku blinked, "Who are they?"

Elsa answered, "From what we gathered, they're Keyblade Wielders from long ago, before the last Keyblade War. They've been helping us on this journey but something seems off about them..."

Riku crossed his arms, "I see... that's interesting that they're showing up now. I'll ask him. He might have some answers. Maybe even a clue to whoever's truly behind this."

"One last thing," Sora added, "We ran into another Keyblade Wielder named Prince Hans."

Riku wondered, "What about him? Is he trouble?"

"He might be," Elsa admitted, "He's been following us this whole journey."

Sora added, "And he has your old Keyblade. The Way to Dawn."

Riku's eyes widened in horror, "WHAT?! How is that possible?!"

"We don't know," Sora replied, "We were kinda hoping you had any ideas."

Riku shook his head, "No, I gave the Keyblade to my own Replica and he sacrificed himself to save Naminé. There should be no way he has that Keyblade."

Sora nodded, "Yeah, I thought as much."

Riku told him, "Don't let your guard down around him. He could be as dangerous as I first was when I gave into the darkness."

"Will do," Sora smiled, "We'll see you soon."

"Before I go," Riku wondered, "I have one more question. I have one last chance to contact you before it comes impossible to do it again. The Fairy Godmother said she was able to do the last with my dreams and Kairi's. Any ideas who dreams could reach out to you?"

Sora crossed his arms as he thought, "Well... I may have an idea... back on the Final World... I ran into someone's heart that I made a promise to. She could be the key. Ask Chirithy. He'll know what to do."

"Got it," Riku told him before he started to return to the outside world, "Oh, and Happy Birthday."

When he vanished Elsa wondered, "What is he talking about? It's not our birthday, it's on..." She then paused as she realized, "Oh, wait... I guess it is our Birthday. I completely forgot!"

"It's okay, Elsa," Sora reassured her, "It's been a crazy week and it's hard to keep track of everything when we're trying to save the universe."

Elsa stared at him before wondering, "So, did you forget too?"

"Nope," Sora smirked, "In fact, I have been planning this for a while now."

"You have?" Elsa raised an eyebrow, "Since when?"

"Mainly while you were singing before we left Arendelle," Sora replied, "Anna even helped."

Elsa raised an eyebrow, "Anna?"

Just then both Anna and Olaf appeared behind Elsa with the former carrying a megaphone, "SURPRISE!"

"GAH!" Elsa panicked as she fell to the floor in shock dropping her cup.

Sora looked down at her as he muttered, "Good thing she finished her Coffee before that happened." Sora turned to Anna, "Was the megaphone really necessary?"

"OF COURSE!" Anna beamed as she continued to speak through the megaphone making everyone wince in pain, "IT'S SO AWESOME! LOOK AT WHAT IT'S DOING TO MY VOICE!"

Elsa then froze the megaphone making Anna frown as she picked herself up, "I appreciate what you're trying to do but I'd like to keep my hearing for the moment."

Anna stared sadly at her frozen Megaphone before setting it aside before beaming again, "C'mon! You and Sora just turned 18! You're officially adults! You can even drink now!"

"What are you talking about?" Sora asked cluelessly, "We've always needed to drink. Our bodies need fluids."

Elsa turned to him awkwardly, "Um... that's not what she meant." She then turned to Anna, "Back to the main topic, what are you two talking about?"

"Come on!" Anna dragged her sister deeper to the ship, "We'll show ya!" She then told Olaf, "Olaf, go tell Marshmallow, Sven, and the boys."

Olaf giggled in excitement, "This is so exciting! I can't wait for my own Birthday!"

Sora turned to Rex, "You sure you don't want to join us?"

"Well, someone needs to keep track of when we reach the next portal to the next world." Rex told him, "Go enjoy the day, I'll keep you posted."

"Thanks, Rex." Sora smiled, "We'll save you some slices!"

He then followed his sisters into the center of the ship where he spotted a stunned Elsa. Peter and Kristoff held out the signs that read, "Happy Birthday Elsa and Sora!"

Peter even threw in a small, "Ta-da!"

Elsa spotted the balloons, the decorations, and the food as she asked, "When did you find the time to prepare all of this?" Elsa then turned to the boxes of food, "And where did you get all the food?"

Kristoff shrugged nonchalantly, "Kuzco's Empire."

Elsa's eyes widened in horror as she recalled the last "meal" they saw there, "You're joking, right?"

"Relax," Peter reassured her, "Unlike the meat hut, the world actually has really good food. Kuzco even helped pointed us out the best food to go." He even opened the box to reveal the food, "See? Pizza? And I didn't even know they invented that food on the planet."

Sora beamed, "Yes! I can't remember the last time I had pizza!"

Elsa blinked before wondering, "What's a pizza?"

Peter's eyes widened in shock as Anna nodded, "Yeah, I was wondering that myself..." Anna turned to Kristoff, "Do you know what pizza is?"

"I'm just as in the dark as you are," Kristoff admitted, "Sorry."

Sora sighed as he remembered, "Yeah... our world... well... they haven't discovered the greatness of Pizza yet."

Peter wondered, "So, what exact timezone are we talking about here?"

Sora answered, "Midevil."

Peter nodded, "That explains a lot."

Sora then turned to the others, "It's okay. Pizza's really good! I had it all the time on Destiny Islands."

Peter nodded, "Yeah, it's the definitive best Italian food ever!" After a brief pause, he added, "Of all time."

Elsa nodded, "Okay, I trust you."

Peter then began to hand slices to everyone...

---

Sometime later, Rex entered the room, "So, how is everyone?"

He paused as he watched Anna have her sixth slice as she gushed, "Oh my gosh! This is ssssssooooo GOOD! If I could marry food, it would definitely be pizza!"

"Judging by how loud she's screaming, it sounds like she already did marry it," Peter muttered to himself getting a small giggle from Elsa.

She then proceeded to take away the pizza box, "Oooooooookay... that's enough pizza for you."

Sora then walked up to the Clone Captain, "We're all having a good time. So, what's up, Rex?"

"I just took us through the portal," Rex told them, "We're arriving on the next world now?"

Sora followed Rex to the cockpit as they flew over the planet as Rex pointed out, "Most of the world is inhabited by wildlife. There are a few man villages so we won't land anywhere near there to avoid a panic."

Everyone went to inspect the planet as Anna sighed, "I guess, there's nothing really that fun activities we could do on the planet for your Birthday."

"Not necessary," Sora thought as he examined the planet, "It looks like there's a river nearby! We could go swimming!"

Olaf beamed, "Ooooooh, sounds like fun!"

Elsa then spoke up, "Um... we didn't exactly bring any swimwear..."

Sora reassured Elsa, "It's okay! I'm way ahead of ya! I even got a spare so Peter can join us!"

Elsa and Anna turned to each other, unsure of what to expect...

---

A half an hour later, Sora ran to the river in his red swimming suit, he pumped a fist, "This is going to be awesome!"

"Yeah," Peter nodded as he joined in his blue swimming suit, he even took off the mask when they convinced it just be them, "Plus we got the river all to ourselves!"

Anna beamed as she joined in one piece green swimming suit, "Oh, I always wanted to the beach! Well... it's not a beach but... you know... close second!"

Just then, Kristoff showed up in black swimming trucks with Sven beside them, he sighed, "At least we get to enjoy ourselves for a little bit before we have to go back into the madness of stopping maniacs from destroying the universe."

Olaf joined them before wondering, "Hey, has anyone seen Elsa?"

Everyone looked around before turning to Marshmallow, who pointed to the tree beside him, Elsa then peeked her head out as Sora wondered, "Elsa? What are you doing back there?"

"I, um, well you see..." Elsa tried to think of an excuse before saying quickly, "I... uh... think I should help Rex back on the Falcon! That's it!"

"Rex said he'd be fine on his own! He'll come to us if he finds anything unusual for this world. Elsa stop hiding already!" Anna ordered without looking. "You look great, so stop worrying!"

Elsa looked down at herself as she muttered, "Why am I wearing this?! I was uncomfortable looking at you wearing that, and I thought it was some kind of sick joke or whatever, then you all hand me this?!"

Sora reassured her, "Elsa! You're fine! So stop worrying already. Relax and enjoy yourself."

"I can't." Elsa deadpanned from behind the tree, "I feel and look stupid."

"No, you feel and think you look naked." Sora snorted.

"Is there a difference?! I never dressed like this before?!" Elsa exclaimed in embarrassment.

"Well... Not in public." Sora remarked.

"The only people who have seen me naked are my parents and I prefer to keep that way!" Elsa ranted like a scared little girl.

"Actually we use to take baths together as toddlers so I've seen you naked too." Sora snickered.

"SORA!" Elsa whined and blushed.

"Come on Elsa! I did this for you! We all think your new ice dress is fantastic. We'll think the same with what you're wearing now." Sora assured his twin sister.

"No! There is no way I'm taking another step forward in this!" Elsa's head vanished behind the tree.

Sora sighed as he gestured to Anna, "Help me get her out here."

Anna nodded as the two went behind the tree causing Elsa to yelp as they dragged her out as she tried to cover as much of herself as possible with her arms and hands. She was wearing a light blue two-piece bikini. When Peter saw Elsa in her bikini, his eyes widened in amazement as he could hear music play in his head (Big Mountain - Baby I Love Your Way).

As he began to imagine the hot Ice Princess dance with grace and pose with her looks while she smirks and winks at Peter. However, none of this was really happening. It's all in Peter's head. Suddenly the music stops with the sound of a record scratch and Kristoff poking the side of Peter's head. "Uh...Pete?"

"Huh What?! Where did everyone go just now?" Peter asked looking like he was dazed.

"I was just gonna ask you that?" Kristoff grinned at Peter knowing what he's thinking, being a love expert and all, "Elsa's trying to go back behind the tree."

Elsa turned almost as red as her Kairi's hair before she tried to make it back to the tree, but Sora and Anna pulled her back. The former reassured her, "Calm down, see, you look fine. The people of Destiny Islands wear this all the time when going to the beach."

"Easy for you guys to say! I'm not used to any of this, I feel like I'm practically running around naked!" Elsa argued.

Anna shook her head as she muttered to herself, "Yeah, sure, yell that louder for someone to hear without context."

Elsa turned and snatched one of the beach towels they brought with them before wrapping it around herself. "Seriously, this is just as even more revealing than my underwear!"

Sora nodded as he muttered to himself, "Right... underwear is a lot different in Arendelle than most places..." He then reassured her, "Elsa! You're not naked! All the important parts are covered!"

"Yeah," Elsa admitted, "But I don't feel comfortable in the jungle running around naked!"

"We won't be!" Anna added as she gestured to their folded-up clothes, "See? Our clothes are nearby! Once, Rex has a general idea of where the next Infinity Stone is, we'll dry off, and change back!"

Sora reassured her once again, "See? Everything is going to be fine."

Elsa bit her lip before turning to her twin brother, "You sure?"

"I'm sure and if anyone even looks at you inappropriately before then," Sora nodded before glaring daggers at the only two other men in the area, "I'll smack them with my strongest Keyblade! Got it?!"

Both Peter and Kristoff smiled nervously as they both answered, "Crystal!"

Sora then turned back to Elsa with a smile, "See? Now, put the towel down, you'll be needing that to dry yourself later."

Feeling a bit confident from her twin brother's encouraging her, Elsa took a deep breath and put the towel down revealing her bikini again.

"That's the spirit, Elsa!" Anna beamed and took her hand leading her to the river with excitement. "Come on!"

"Anna, don't pull, I'm coming." Elsa winced as she tried to keep up.

Olaf muttered, "I don't understand the concept of clothes. I don't wear anything."

Peter shook his head in amusement, "Well, tell you when you're older..."

Olaf beamed brightly, "Oh, I can't wait until I'm older!"

Sora crossed his arms with a smirk looking at them, "My work here is done, now for a dip."

Anna beamed as she continued to drag her sister, "Alright, let's go in!"

Elsa, however, was still uncertain, "Wait, what if the lake has... uh... alligators or snakes? Maybe we should wait until we know for sure..."

However, Sora ran past everyone and jumped in the air, "CANNONBALL!"

He landed in the water with a large splash drenching them both in water. Elsa looked annoyed while Anna laughed in amusement. Sora popped his head out of the water, he reassured him, "Relax! The only thing we have to worry about in this water are harmless fish!"

Anna turned to her sister as Elsa tried to dry her hair, "See? Perfectly safe!"

Peter walked up to them, "And my Spider-Sense isn't going off. We should be good."

Elsa kinda took a step back in shock as she blushed at Peter's presence. She then cleared her throat, "What about a lifeguard?"

"Elsa... on Destiny Islands," Sora smirked from the water, "Everyone's a lifeguard. Seriously people learn to swim before they can walk there." He then gestured to them, "Now, come on in! The water's fine!"

Elsa looked down at the water, "I don't know..."

Anna sighed realizing there was only one way Elsa was getting in the water, "Sorry, Elsa."

"Sorry? For whaaaaaaa...?!" Elsa began to ask when Anna pushed her into the water. The Snow Queen fell in with a splash.

Anna smirked as she admitted, "For that."

She then jumped in the water after her as Elsa gasped for breath as she rose to the surface, "Anna! You jerk! I could have frozen then entire lake!"

Sora reassured her as Anna resurfaced, "But you didn't!"

Elsa froze to realize that he was right, she didn't even alter the lake's temperature. If she had, she would have noticed. Peter chuckled getting the three's attention, "I guess you have more control over your powers than you thought..."

He and Kristoff joined them in the water. Sora told Elsa as he swam with backstrokes, "Hakuna Matata, Elsa. Just stop worrying and enjoy yourself for a change."

Elsa just floated in the water and thought for a moment, before admitting, "Maybe you're right... our journey's half-way over at this point. We should celebrate."

Anna pumped a fist when Sven jumped into the lake as Kristoff translated, "CANNONBALL!"

Both sisters screamed as the reindeer landed into the water with a large slash drenching everyone in the water...

---

Later, Peter had agreed to teach everyone how to fish so they could pack some food for the long journey. Peter told the group, "Uncle Ben used to teach me a lot about finishing when I was younger. Caught a few fish then too. So, smell the fresh air. Feel the cool breeze. Enjoy the sun on your face."

Sora chuckles as he notices something on Peter's arm, "Swat the bug off your arm."

Peter was a little taken back by this, "Wait, what?!"

Sora swatted the big away as he reassured, "No worries. I got it!"

Peter then went back to the topic, "Anyways... I'm about to teach you the sacred art of fishing." He turned to Sora in particular, "You're listening, right?"

"Absolutely." Sora nodded.

"Listen," Peter told the group.

"Uh-huh...Yeah." Sora nodded as he started to lose focus and not actually listen, "Go on. We're listening."

"The first important aspect of understanding art is patience... if you want the fish to take the bait. They have to come to a conclusion that it is not bait, and that they're not going to become vacuum packed in a jar of mayonnaise." Peter stated humorously unaware Sora was walking closer to the lake, "Secondly, the secret of fishing is this: you must consider the species of fish you wish to catch and..."

Suddenly, everyone heard another splash making Peter stop to see that Sora had dived into the lake, "Huh?"

When Sora returned to the surface, he held out a large fish in his hand, as he beamed, "Hey everyone! I caught one!"

Peter's eyes widened as he felt like his jaw just hit the floor as he gasped, "DID... DID YOU JUST... WITHOUT A... WHAT?!"

Everyone else just burst out laughing at Peter's shock. Truth be told fishing had been another thing the people of Destiny Islands all knew how to do. Even without the proper fishing equipment. However, Elsa quickly calmed herself as she cleared her throat, "Go ahead, Peter. We're listening. We can't all be like Sora."

---

A little later, Sora, Kristoff, and Peter all had a small competition of who could stay underwater the longest. Sora had won the first round but Peter and Kristoff wanted a rematch that Sora accepted. He told them, "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand GO!"

The three young men dived underwater while Elsa, Anna, Sven, Marshmallow, and Olaf watched from the surface. Elsa wondered, "I wonder how long it'll take before they realize Sora can breathe underwater?"

Anna snickered as everyone else turned to them in confusion. Much like last time, Kristoff burst out of the water for breath as he gasped, "Oh, common! Last again?!"

A minute later, Peter gasped for air as he stated, "I don't know how he holds his breath for so long! Is it because he grew up on an island?!"

Then Sora popped out of the water fist-pumping the air, "WHOO! HIGH SCORE FOR THE BEACH BOYS BACK HOME!"

"Joke's on him, we had a band called the Beach Boys," Peter muttered at Elsa before turning to Sora, "Come on, man! Best 3 outta 4."

Sora smirked, already knowing he won, "You're on."

Anna whispered to her sister, "Should we tell them?"

"Nah," Elsa shook her head, "Let's let them figure it out on their own..."

The sisters began to giggle among themselves as the three boys dived back under...

---

After some more humiliating defeats, they finally decided to do something else. If they were on the beach, they would have a sandcastle competition but since there wasn't any sand around, they decided to make snow castles instead. The snow wouldn't be too cold so no one would freeze but it was cold enough so it wouldn't melt due to the hot sun. To make sure it was fair this time, Sora and Elsa would not be a team because they'd knew if they were teamed up. They'd win by a long shot. They also agreed that they would not powers with the exception to make enough snow for everyone.

Anna, Kristoff, and Olaf were a team. Peter, Elsa, and Sven were also a team. Finally, Sora and Marshmallow were paired up as a team. As they made their castles, Anna, Kristoff, and Olaf were actually doing alright. Their castle was going pretty well as they made their castle look like the one back home. Anna turned to Elsa's team as she glared, "Elsa... you better not be using your powers!"

Elsa, Peter, and Sven stood beside their ice palace as Sven created a little moat with his antlers. Elsa smirked looking mischievous and snarky. "Now whatever gave you that idea?" She then whispered to Peter and Sven, "I'm glad we're doing this with snow and not sand. I have no clue how to make sandcastles."

"I HEARD THAT!" Anna complained, "AND I'LL DEFINITELY BE OWNING YOU IN THE SAND CASTLE CONTEST!"

The three snickered before Peter wondered, "I wonder how Sora and Marshmallow snow castle's doing?"

Everyone turned to Sora, as their eyes widened in shock as Kristoff muttered, "You've got to be kidding me."

Sora had made an exact life-sized replica of Disney Castle as Marshmallow placed a tiny leaf on top for a flag. Sora smiled, "Oh, hey, guys! What do you think of our castle?"

"Did he just make a medieval summer getaway for Sandman?!" Peter gawked looking shocked.

This makes Peter wish he had Sora back in high school. Flash Thompson would be mounted on the wall by his underwear for trying to pick on them. Sora shook his head, "Don't be ridiculous! I don't even know who that is! This is a model Summer Getaway for Santa!"

Everyone stared at him dumbfoundedly, before Elsa asked, "Santa?"

Sora nodded, "Yes."

Elsa then asked, "As in Santa Claus?"

"Yep!" Sora nodded.

Peter turned to Elsa and whispered, "Your parents never told him the Santa Secret?"

"Well... we sort of assumed! I mean he had the Talk with his foster parents so we figure..." Elsa shrugged before realizing, "Although it would explain why he still leaves milk and cookies by the fireplace."

Sora looked confused, "What are guys talking about?"

Everyone looked awkwardly at Sora, as Olaf also turned to them, "Yeah, what are you guys talking about?"

Anna covered Olaf's ears as she tried to explain, "Well... the thing is Santa's..."

Elsa finished awkwardly, "...not real."

Sora groaned, "Not you too!" He told them, "Riku got me on the naughty list because he convinced that!"

Elsa, Anna, Peter, and Kristoff all turned to each other concerned before turning back to him, as Anna asked, "What makes you say that?"

"He told me so," Sora answered before smiling, "Thankfully, he forgave me and didn't hold a grudge. In fact, he's here right now."

"That's nice Sora but..." Elsa stated before realizing, "Wait, what?!"

Just then, Santa Claus exited Sora's snow castle as everyone's eyes widened as they felt as if their jaws just fell off their faces. Santa gave a jolly laugh as he turned to Sora, "My Sora! You were right! This is just what I'm looking for! A place to take off after Christmas and this castle are just what me and the Mrs. needed."

Sora smiled, "Glad to hear it, Santa! If you like it now, just wait until it's powered by magic. When this is all over, just let me know which world you'll like it on, and I get everything set for ya!"

"I'm looking forward to it. I'll tell Jack you said hi." Santa laughed before walking over to his sleigh as everyone watched the events that took palace.

Everyone was completely speechless, even as Santa flew off. Peter's voice finally spoke up, "But... but... how? And it's not even Christmas! We're in the middle of July!"

Santa looked down at Peter as he answered, "I'm on my Summer run!" He then waved goodbye, "Merry Christmas, Sora! To you as well, Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, Peter, Sven, and Olaf!"

"Bye, Santa!" Sora waved, "Merry Christmas!" He then turned to the others who looked at him in shock, he tilted his head, "What?"

---

A half an hour later, everyone found themselves back in the water. Elsa leaned on the edge of the river, as Sora swam to her, "Hey, Elsa having a good time."

Elsa was silent since Santa left as she muttered, "He's actually real..."

Sora frowned as he nodded, "Yes, he is Elsa. We already established that thirty minutes ago!"

Elsa then turned to her brother, "How is he even here?! If he's lives on the outside, how can he get in here!"

Sora stared at her, "Elsa... this is Santa we're talking about. He found a way!"

Elsa sighed as she shook her head, "Sorry... I'm not used to any of this... I'm not even sure anyone would believe us if we told them."

Sora nodded, "Yeah, Riku didn't believe me either when I said I met him." He then smiled, "Now, other than that, are you having a good time!"

"Huh?" Elsa nodded, "Oh, the best..."

She then turned to Peter as he made a cannonball into the water, she continued staring at him as Sora cleared his throat, "You know... you could try talking to him."

Elsa turned back to Sora, "What? You mean Peter?" He nodded as she responded, "We talk... about things..."

Sora tilted his head, "About how you like each other?"

"What?" Elsa froze as she stated, "Why would we talk about that. Of course, we like each other. We wouldn't be friends if we didn't like each other. It's the circle of friendship. You of all people should know considering you have more friends than any of us combined."

Sora shook his head, "You know that's not what I meant."

Elsa moved slightly back as her face turned red, "You mean... 'like him' like him." Her brother nodded as she turned away and denied, "No, no, no... no way. Nope. Nuh-uh."

Sora rolled his eyes, "Elsa... it's okay if you start having feelings for him. Besides, he's a good guy. Sure, he may have been a stowaway on our original ship but he had the best intentions and has been a great help." Sora's eyes narrowed, "Unlike a certain Prince of the Southern Isles."

"Sora, I'm telling you. I don't like him that way," Elsa stated before looking at her hands, "Even if I did, I can't. It's too dangerous for anyone to be that close to me."

Sora took her hand and gave her a reassuring smile, "You're not dangerous Elsa. We've already been to three different worlds that can prove it. They're people who are alive because of you, and you never caused one tragedy."

"I know. But-" Elsa almost said more.

"Our friends over there...And Anna. They believe in you. More importantly, they trust you. The only one left to convince now is yourself." Sora went on.

"Sora..." Elsa sighed knowing he had a point but wasn't completely sure.

"And the only one your hurting is yourself, by shutting people out. The times you've lost. The time Anna has lost. It's no wonder she's quick to throw herself in the arms of a stranger she just met." Sora snorted that last reference of Hans. "It's because Anna is trying to fill in a void. A void that only you and I together can fill."

"I know." Elsa looked down sadly. "I wish I could bring those days back but..."

"You can't. You can only outnumber those days of isolation with what's coming in the future." Sora smiled, "In fact, Riku went through the same thing during his dark journey. He thought he was helping me by pushing me away. But that only made things worse for him."

"But things got better for you and him." Elsa sighed.

"Because he opened up when it really mattered. Now it's your turn." Sora encouraged her, "And you deserve to have the right guy just as much as Anna does."

Elsa shook her head, "I can't and even then... he's in grieving over the loss of his last girlfriend."

Sora sighed, "Elsa, it's been over six months... Believe me, I know how he's feeling. I was just as devastated when I thought I lost Kairi. However, I know she'd want me to move on if she did die. If Gwen's anything like Kairi, the only thing they'd want is us to be happy. We weren't made to live in the universe to be alone."

Elsa tilted her head, "You know you seem more supportive of Peter than..."

"And if he breaks your heart," Sora cut her off, "I'll kick his butt."

The future Queen of Arendelle then nodded, "And there it is!"

Unaware to them, Anna had overheard them, she felt a little jealous that Sora was giving Elsa love advice for Peter and not her for Hans. True, Anna did like the idea of Elsa ending up with Peter or Sora with Kairi, but she wanted someone to love in her life too. Kristoff seemed to notice that Anna was upset he swam up to her, "You alright?"

"Hmm?" Anna turned to Kristoff before nodding, "Oh, yeah! I'm fine! I just... I think I'm done swimming for now. I need a moment to myself."

She then swam to shore and got out of the water to dry herself off. Anna sighed as she thought to herself, "How am ever going to end up with Hans if everyone doesn't give me a chance with him."

All of a sudden, she heard something sliver right behind her. Anna looked startled, "Huh? Who's there?" However, in doing so, Anna saw eyes of swirl colors and her eyes slowly began to change colors as well...

---

A few minutes later, everyone was having a good time in the river. Elsa, however, was still shy talking to Peter. So, Sora swam over to Peter to give a little persuasion as well. Plus a little threat to not break her heart. Kristoff then noticed, "Hey, has anyone seen Anna?"

Everyone froze at that, Anna had been gone for far too long. Olaf wondered, "You don't think she went back to the ship?"

"No, she would have said something," Elsa shook her head, "And even then she'd know it's dangerous to go alone."

She turned to Sora as he nodded, "Something's wrong. We better look for her."

Everyone nodded as they got out of the water. As everyone quickly dried themselves off but didn't get dressed as finding Anna was a top priority. Peter quickly grabbed his mask and web-shooters. Elsa tilted her head, "Okay, I get that you wanna grab your web-shooters but do you have to bring the mask? Who's gonna expose your identity out here? The ants? The fish that we collected?"

"Yeah," He nodded, "You know, in case it's a Hans incident."

Elsa nodded understandingly, "Oh, right."

Part of her hoped it was just that, as Peter slid his mask and quickly put on his web-shooters. As everyone went to look for Anna, they were unaware as several hairy mammals watched them run off...

---

As everyone looked around, Sora turned to Kristoff, "When did you last see Anna?"

"Only a few minutes ago," Kristoff answered, "She seemed pretty upset."

Elsa stated, "Then she couldn't have gone too far."

Peter's Spider-Sense went off, as he looked around as his eyes widened under his mask, "Uh... I think I found her... though I don't think you're going like the situation she's in."

Everyone turned to him as he gestured to where he had found her, everyone's eyes widened as they saw the young Princess of Arendelle was both hypnotized and coiled by a python. Elsa shivered, "A snake... why did it have to be a snake?"

As Sora's listened in to the snake's voice, sounding like he was trying to get her to sleep, as he muttered, "Yeah, one that disturbing sounds like Pooh."

Elsa turned to her twin brother, "You're saying that thing can talk?"

"I think we got bigger concerns than talking animals," Peter pointed out.

Elsa nodded, "Right! Save Anna before she becomes a snake's dinner!"

Sora summoned his Keyblade, "Okay... let's get its attention on us. Kristoff, Olaf, while we distract the snake, you two try to rescue Anna." Kristoff nodded as Sora continued, "And considering that state Anna's in, I have to guess that the snake has the power over hypnotism so don't look at it in the eyes. No matter what."

Everyone nodded as Kristoff and Olaf ran off as Olaf declared, "We coming, Anna!" He then wondered, "Wait, who's Kristoff?"

"Just come on, Olaf..." The ice-deliverer told him as they snuck behind some trees.

As Sora, Elsa, Peter, Sven, and Marshmallow gathered with each other, the superhero stated, "Okay, since snakes are naturally cold-blooded, they don't like too cold of temperatures so ice magic will be extremely helpful in this situation."

Elsa nodded as she raised a hand, however, there was a slight problem, "I can't hit the snake without hitting Anna."

The snake opened his mouth ready to consume her, as Sora aimed his Keyblade, "It's okay, Elsa. I got this one. Just be ready when he comes at us."

"You sure?" Elsa asked, "If your even a bit off..."

Sora's eyes narrowed, "Don't worry, I don't miss!" He then locked on to the snake, "FREEZE!"

The ice spell came out of the Keyblade and struck the snake's head out as he backed away in pain, "What wassssss that?! Who daressssss?!"

"We dare!" Sora declared as the snake turned to the group of teenagers, the giant snow beast, and reindeer, "Now let our sister go! OR ELSE!"

The snake smirked, "Well, well, well, what do we have here... a whole pack of delicioussssss man-cubsssssss. Plus creaturessssss I never ssssssseen before. It musssssst be my lucky day."

"Man-cubs?" Elsa whispered, "Did- Did he just call us children?"

"Elsa, I think I'm going to enjoy this." Sora's glared before reminding the others, "Remember, don't look him in the eyes."

Spider-Man nodded as he used his web as a blindfold, "Right, ignore what we see and hear, and may the Spider-Sense be with me."

---

As everyone quickly avoided the snake's first strike, Kristoff climbed up a tree while everyone kept the snake busy as Olaf held on to his back. Once on the tree branch, he turned to the snowman and whispered, "Remember, we need to be as quiet as possible and try not to get the snake's attention so we can rescue Anna."

Olaf nodded, "Right. My lips are sealed."

---

Just as they were taking positions, avoiding the snake's gaze. Elsa could see some black mist surrounding and coming out of the python. Her eyes widen knowing what that meant.

Darkness.

"Sora!" Elsa whispered and gestures the darkness around the snake.

"I know. I see it too." Sora nodded while staying on his guard. He avoided another strike before he started smacking the snake with his Keyblade making the serpent wince.

---

Meanwhile, with Kristoff and Olaf, they carefully avoided the reptile's body to avoid attention as they walked closer to the captive Princess as her eyes were still swirling. The snowman gasped, "Anna? What's wrong with her?"

"She must still be in a trance," Kristoff muttered before trying to get her attention quietly, " Anna. Anna! Wake up!"

Anna muttered, "Colors... so... pretty..."

Kristoff looked worried before placing his hand close to her face as he snapped his fingers, "Anna! Snap out of it!"

Anna's grin faded as she blinked back to reality. She looked confused as she whispered, "Kristoff... where..."

She then noticed the coils that wrapped around her body before she realized what had happened. She began to panic and wanted to scream but Kristoff covered her mouth before she could, "Anna... don't scream... Sora, Elsa, Spidey, Sven, and Marshmallow are trying to keep the snake busy so Olaf and I can help you but I need you to remain as calm as your ability and don't scream. Blink twice if you understand."

Anna quickly blinked twice as he removed his hand, she whimpered quietly, "Help... me..."

Kristoff nodded, "I will... Can you move one of your arms without getting the snake's attention so I can help you out?"

Anna shook her head quickly trying not to scream. Kristoff thought before getting's Sven attention quietly.

---

Knowing what his best friend was thinking Sven nudged Sora as he pulled back as it started avoiding Marshmallows swipes. Sora turned to Kristoff as he gestured what Sora needed him to do. Peter landed next to Sora as he told him, "We need to make the snake loosen his grip on Anna. Try spreading out a little."

He nodded as he called out, "Hey! Nagini!" The snake turned to Peter as he leaped from tree to tree, "You couldn't a turtle if you tried! I have an elderly Aunt who moves faster than you!"

The snake's eyes narrowed, "The name issssssss Kaa!"

He then cased after the blindfolded Peter. Elsa understood what he was trying to do, fires several icy blasts at the snake as she retreated deeper into the jungle.

---

As everyone on the ground made an effort, Kaa slightly removed some of his coils on Kaa in an attempt to chase the others. When Anna had the chance, she cautiously removed one of her arms from the coils. With one of her arms free, Kristoff took her hand tried to free her.

Back on the ground, Peter fired several webs to subdue Kaa. However, Kaa avoided the webs before pursuing the New Yorker. However, both Sora and Elsa fired the icy blasts as the snake narrowly avoided them. He then began to pursue the latter, as Elsa stepped back to avoid the snake. Unfortunately, she tripped on a tree branch. Elsa fell to the ground with a thud. Sora's eyes widened, "Elsa! Watch out!"

As Elsa recovered, she turned to face the snake as Kaa told her, "Yes, child... take a good long look..."

Elsa's eyes widened in horror as Kaa's eyes changed color and soon found herself in Anna's former predicament. Sora charged to help but Kaa used his tail to smack him away. Elsa stood at attention as Kaa opened his mouth ready to eat. However, Peter quickly pushed her out of the way to safety just as Kaa snaped jaws. He then turned to go after her before two blaster bolts passed him. Kaa turned to see Captain Rex with his duel blasters as he muttered, "I can't leave you, kids, alone for a day without something happening!"

---

Meanwhile, with Kristoff and Olaf, the two finally managed to pull Anna free as she breathed heavily. Kristoff asked with concern, "You okay?"

After a few breaths, she nodded, "Yeah... yeah... I'll live. Thanks."

Once, she calmed down, she noticed her sister nearly become her kidnapper's next dinner. Her eyes narrowed as she tired to where the snake's coils lied. Kristoff was starting to become a bit worried, "Uh... what are you doing?!"

"Payback." Anna growled before sitting down as she used her legs to kick the snake off the branch, "Nobody tries to make my friends and family a meal you jerk!"

---

As everyone started one guard as Peter held Elsa protectively, Kaa was about to make his next move when suddenly, he was forcibly unwound from the branches of the tree hitting his head in the process before crashing down to the ground. Everyone started the defeated snake as Sora wondered, "Uh... what just happened?"

"SORA!"

Sora looked around to hear his younger sister's voice as he looked up to see Kristoff and Anna with Olaf, sitting on a tree. Sora called out, "ANNA! ARE YOU OKAY?!"

"I'M FINE!" She reassured him, "IS ELSA?!"

He turned to see Elsa still dazed before turning back, "SHE'S STILL IN A TRANCE BUT SHE'S FINE!"

Anna sighed in relief before she noticed Kaa start to recover on the ground. Kaa glared at them. "I'll get you for thisssss. Jussst you wait till I get you in my coilssss."

Just then, he heard large footsteps walking up to him, he turned to face an angry Marshmallow. Kaa all of a sudden looked very nervous, "Uhhhhh... Hi?"

Marshmallow then grew icicles around his body and roared as Kaa tired to sliver away in fear when Kaa caught on a bamboo branch because apparently, he had a knot in his tail. Anna snickered a little, "Guys, look! He's got a knot in his tail."

"Tee hee hee, he'ssss got a knot in hissss tail." Kaa mocked Anna a little before remembered about the giant snow monster before pulling free. He quickly retreated into the jungle as his slivering was slightly messed up.

Marshmallow roared at the snake, "DON'T COME BACK!"

Sora walked up to Marshmallow before patting him, "I don't think he will, big guy. Now, could he help the others down?"

Marshmallow calmed down and opened his hand as he gently carried Kristoff, Anna, and Olaf down. Sora gave a little sister a hug, "Don't scare us like that again..."

"Yeah..." Anna admitted returned the hug, "I should have never gone too far."

Sora then released her, "Why did you leave? Kristoff mentioned you were upset."

Anna then remembered why she was upset and frowned, "Well..."

"Guys!" Everyone turned to Peter, who had removed his blindfold and mask as he held on to the hypnotized Elsa in his arms, "A little help..."

Deciding to put that topic on hold, everyone rushed over to Elsa and Peter. Rex removed his helmet before wondering, "What's wrong with her?"

"That snake," Peter tried to explain, "Kaa, or whatever his name was, he hypnotized Elsa and tried to make us his dinner."

Rex groaned, "And this is why I don't like a hypnotist. They can make you do whatever they want."

Sora looked to Elsa with concern, before turning to Kristoff, "How did you free Anna from his control?"

"Not much," Kristoff shrugged, "I just snapped her fingers and that seemed to work."

"Good, let's do that before Elsa does something crazy," Anna stated, "Like, I don't know, kiss the first guy she sees on the lips."

Overhearing her sister's comment, she closed her eyes as she pulled Peter closer to her. Peter wondered, "Elsa? What are youMMMMMMMPH?!"

Elsa had pulled Peter in for a kiss much to everyone's shock. Anna gasped in horror as she whispered, "Oops."

Olaf chuckled, "That's awkward..."

"Okay..." Sora admitted, "This isn't how I imagined Elsa's first kiss would go down."

Elsa's eye colors snapped back to natural colors. Now, fully aware of what was happening, she pushed herself away from Peter with a blush on her face, "Why was I kissing you?"

Peter's brain didn't seem to work at the moment as all he had to say for himself was, "Uhhhhhhh..."

Elsa's eyes widened as she remembered, "ANNA! IS SHE..."

"Elsa," Anna called out as she turned to her little sister, "I'm fine."

While Elsa was relieved that her sister was safe, she had so many questions going through her mind, "Okay, few questions..." She then proceeded to ask, "What happened to me? Why was I kissing Peter? Is the snake gone? Why was I kissing Peter? That thing didn't wrap its body around me? Why was I kissing Peter? Did we win? Why was I kissing Peter? How did Anna escape? Why was I kissing Peter? When did Rex get here? Why was I kissing Peter?!"

Apparently, Elsa's main question was the one concerning her kissing Peter, most of the group were unsure how to answer as it felt awkward to them. However, Olaf was more than happy to answer her, "Well, you successfully distracted Kaa the Snake so we were able to free Anna but Kaa started a staring contest with you so your eyes got filled with colors, then he tried to bite at you but Peter saved you. Then Rex came to help. However, Anna kicked Kaa off the tree and Marshmallow scared him away. Then we were trying to figure out how to change your eyes back to normal when Anna suggested that you should kiss Peter and so you did and then you asked us a bunch of questions."

Elsa blinked at that as she turned to her sister, who looked completely guilty, "I am so sorry. I didn't mean it."

"No, no, it's fine! It was just a suggestive impulse. I mean you weren't in you're right mind... I mean you weren't in control of your own actions."

That's what Peter Parker wanted to tell the future Queen of Arendelle, however, he was still in shock at what happened. Elsa turned to him in concern, "Peter... are you... um... are you okay? I'm sorry about the kiss..." However, Peter was still silent, as Elsa pleaded, "C'mon! Say something!"

"I, um, think he might be recovering from that kiss of yours..." Rex chuckled humorously.

Elsa gasped think she actually hurt him, "Wait, I didn't freeze your head with that kiss, did I?! I'm sorry! I... I can get you help! Maybe we can stop back at Arendelle and get the trolls to..."

Sora was about to tell Elsa that Rex was just joking but that's when Peter finally spoke up, "No, no, no... I'm good..."

Elsa sighed in relief before asking, "You sure?"

"Yeah, I, um, didn't see you doing that," Peter stated.

"Oh," Elsa blushed, "Sorry. I'm not usually."

Sora sighed, "Okay, I'm changing the topic before this gets any more awkward." He then turned to Rex, "I take it you found something."

"Yeah," Rex nodded, "I had the Falcon scan the planet to see anything unnaturally powerful came from this world since finding the Infinity Stone would be easier without all the technology in the area and we're actually close to it."

Elsa and Peter then stood up as the former stated, "Good. Let's get dressed, get it, and get out of the jungle. If I see another snake, it'd too soon."

"Yeah, I second that," Anna nodded realizing Elsa's fear of snakes was completely justified.

"Well, he's the thing," Rex stated, "The Infinity Stone is actually was getting closer to us by the minute which means..."

Sora sighed in annoyance, "Someone already got their hands on the Stone and it wasn't Vanitas or the Black Order otherwise they would have brought straight to Thanos."

Peter nodded, "And there's a good chance whoever does have it, will want to kill us."

"That'd be my guess too." Rex admitted, "We should pack up and get the Stone before they cause too much damage or worse... the Black Order gets to them before we do."

Anna frowned, "I guess that means the party's over."

Kristoff nodded, "Guess so, we can have the cake once we're done here."

"Alright, let's grab some close and get that Stone," Sora nodded as they head back to the river. However, there was a slight problem, "Uh... what happened to our clothes?"

Olaf gasped in horror. "THE TREE ATE OUR CLOTHES!"

"You don't wear clothes." Rex deadpanned.

"THE TREE ATE EVERYONE'S CLOTHES!" Olaf yelled in shock.

Anna knelt before the snowman, "Olaf, trees don't eat clothes."

"Oh," Olaf blinked before gesturing to the three, "Then what's that?"

Anna turned to what the snowman was pointing at before turning back to answer, "Oh, those are just a bunch of monkeys stealing our clothes." Anna blinked before repeating, "A bunch of monkeys stealing our clothes?!" Anna turned back to see that very well was the case as she panicked, "WAIT! NO! GIVE THOSE BACK!"

Anna tried to run after them but Kristoff stopped her, "Easy there, feisty pants, they're long gone. There's no need risking losing you again as well."

"Well, that's just great! Now we've got to run around the jungle half-naked!" Elsa groaned, "As wearing this wasn't bad enough!"

Sora then looked around and began to panic, "Uh... I think it's much worse than that. And I really think we should get our clothes back!"

"Wait, why?" Elsa turned to him, "We still have more clothes back on the ship."

"It's not that," Sora admitted, "It's way worse."

Anna gasped with concern, "You didn't leave Kairi's good luck charm in your pockets, did you?"

Sora shook his head as he pulled out Kairi's charm, "No, I grabbed it before we even changed."

Peter wondered, "The GummiPhone?"

"Yes," Sora admitted, "But there's actually something we need to get back even more than the phone!"

"What could be so important that we have to chase a bunch of monkeys through the jungle just to get our clothes back?" Elsa wondered as Sora began to look sheepishly. Slowly, Elsa's eyes widened in horror, "Sora... you... you didn't..."

"Wait, did he... do what exactly?" Anna asked what Elsa was inquiring about Sora.

Elsa's fears were realized as Sora admitted, "I left the Infinity Stones in my pockets."

Everyone exclaimed, "YOU DID WHAT?!"

"You mean... every Infinity Stone we've gathered so far..." Kristoff stated.

Sora nodded, "Are in the hands of a bunch of monkeys."

Olaf stared at Sora blankly at first before he started laughing really hard.

"Oh, my side is hurting! That's so funny! You know?! Because we need them! Or the universe is doom! Ahahahahahaa!" Olaf collapsed on the ground laughing. When he realized no one else was laughing, he asked, "Wait...You're not joking are you?"

"I wish I was," Sora admitted, "I really do!"

Elsa facepalmed herself, "For a war hero, I keep forgetting that you're also you!"

Rex suggested, "Maybe we can check the Falcon's scans, the Infinity Stones might be able to be picked up."

"Yeah, but if those monkeys find them first, and something tells me they will," Peter groaned, "They'll practically be a beacon for the Black Order! There's no way we'd be able to get to them first without blowing the fact we're not even from this world!"

"Which means the only way we can get them first is to figure out where they're going and get them back?!" Elsa groaned before muttering, "This is turning out to be quite the Birthday!"

"Yeah, sorry guys," Sora apologized as he looked down with guilt, "I screwed up big time! But we'll find a way to get them first! I know we will! Kairi and the others are counting on us!" He turned to them as they looked completely frozen in fear, as Rex slowly went to reach his blaster. Sora looked confused, "What?"

Elsa tried to ease him, "Sora. Don't panic but there's some kind of big cat behind you..."

"Big cat?" Sora asked, "What, like a puma?"

Elsa nodded, "Yeah, there ya go."

Sora slowly turned to see said big cat as Rex went to grab his blaster before told him, "Rex! Don't!"

"What?" Rex raised an eyebrow.

Sora reassured him, "If he wanted to attack, he would have done it already." He then turned to face the cat, "Isn't that right?"

"Yes. Though I am not a puma. I am what the jungle calls a panther." The cat responded in a matter-of-fact like demeanor much to everyone's shock

"Uh... sorry..." Elsa apologized before wondering, "Wait, you can talk? You speak English?"

"You know," Peter commented, "We shouldn't be that surprised as a talking snake tried to eat us only minutes ago."

"Still," Anna commented as she turned to her brother, "How are you not shocked by all this?"

Sora stared at her bluntly, "You do realize my best friends other than you two, Riku, and Kairi are a talking duck and dog right?"

"He's got a point. Let's make a rule not to be shocked to see anything that talks. Okay?" Olaf stated with a big grin on his face.

"Uh... Forgive my blunt curiosity. But what on Earth is he supposed to be?" the Panther asked looking at Olaf with confusion.

"A Snowman. What? You've never seen one, T'challa?" Peter responded to the panther.

"T'Challa?" Elsa asked, "Who's that?"

"You know," Peter replied, "The Black Panther. You've met him. That's his real name."

Elsa's eyes widened, "Oh... I get it because he's a..." She then nodded, "Right."

"It's Bagheera actually. My name is Bagheera." The Panther corrected in an introduction, then asked. "And you are?"

"I'm Sora," Sora introduced himself before gesturing to the others, "And this is my twin sister, Elsa, our little sister, Anna, and our friends, Spidey, Kristoff, Sven, Olaf, Marshmallow, and Captian Rex."

Everyone gave small waves or nods as Sora introduced them. Bagheera asked them, "What are you all doing so far from the man-village?"

"Well, we were celebrating Sora and Elsa's eighteenth birthday," Anna explained, "But then I was kidnapped by a snake who tried to eat me and kinda forced the party to end."

"If you know what's good for you, Kaa is the least of your worries," The panther told them, "The Jungle isn't as safe as it once was. I suggest you head back to the man-village."

"Man-Village? Okay, Whiskers. We're not from a village we're from-" Peter almost said back to Bagheera.

"Order!" Sora hissed quietly at Peter warning him not to tell Bagheera there from another world. "Dang it, I'm starting to sound like Donald."

"From...out of town. As in another country. I'm from New York." Peter stated hiding the off-world fact.

"Kamino," Rex said.

"Arendelle." The others stated.

"So you don't need to worry. I've got these kids under my protection. And we've got bigger problems to worry about than their safety." Captain Rex stated, who of course was still in uniform.

"I don't care where you're from," Bagheera shook his head, "You're all safer in the Man-village. Shere Kahn has returned and he's sworn to kill all of you."

Peter assumed, "Uh... okay, I amusing he isn't referring to the Star Terk villain or the boss from that overkill video game series."

"Who exactly is Shere Kahn?" Anna wondered, "And why does he want to kill us? We haven't even heard of the guy until now."

"He's a Tiger, who hates both man and fire. If he finds you or Mowgli here, he will stop at nothing to kill the both of you while you're still young. And that's not all..." Bagheera explained.

Peter sighed as he realized, "Let me guess, monsters started appearing the same time as he did and they been attacking anything that breaths."

"Yes, I take it you've seen them." The panther assumed.

Sora nodded, "Unfortunately, yes. They've been causing lots of trouble where ever we go."

"And they will cause a lot more trouble if we take your suggestion and sit around in some mud hut." Captain Rex implied at the panther's idea.

"What Captain Rex means is it's best if we handle the situation," Elsa stated calmly.

"Yeah, we've done it before. Three times to be exact." Anna piped up before gesturing to Sora, "And Sora's done this sort of thing for years now."

"Even if you have, Shere Kahn is a different matter entirely," Bagheera tried to explain, "Now more than ever, he was last to see using a magic stone that seems that can take him anywhere. Not only is he strong, but he's also now untouchable."

Everyone's eyes widened slightly as they figured out who has the Infinity Stone, Elsa groaned, "Great, the next Infinity Stone is in the paws of a man hating tiger."

Anna shrugged, "At least it's not with the snake."

Elsa shivered again, "Don't remind me."

"Well, there's the point getting that Infinity Stone if we don't reclaim the Infinity Stones." Rex whispered to the others before turning to Bagheera, "We can't leave the jungle. Not yet. Some things of ours have been stolen."

Bagheera shook his head, "You are just as stubborn as Mowgli."

"You keep mentioning that name," Elsa realized before asking, "Who is he?"

"He's a man-cub," The panther explained, "He's lived in the jungle all his life, he was raised by a family of wolf and was protected by the pack but when Shere Kahn returned, they knew their combined strength wouldn't stop him even without the stone."

Peter paused, "Wait... you're saying an entire pack of wolves wouldn't be able to stop him?"

"That's correct," He nodded, "For his own safety, he needs to be in the man village. They will have both the numbers and means to protect him. The problem is that he refuses to go. He prefers to stay in the jungle no matter what I try to tell him."

Sora asked, "Uh... how capable is he with survival skills?"

Bagheera answered, "He won't even last a day." He then grumbled to himself, "Even less with Baloo's with him."

They didn't seem to notice that last bit, but they really had to question Mowgli's logic. Rex muttered, "Then it's a miracle he's managed to live for this long."

The panther sighed as he agreed with the captain, "Tell me about it."

"Sounds like he needs to be tutored by Tarzan." Sora scoffed at how amateur Mowgli sounds.

"Who?" Bagheera furrows his brows in confusion.

"Tarzan. You know...King of the jungle... Oh, wait! I forgot he's from Africa." Sora muttered that last part before deciding to switch topics, "Listen, if Shere Kahn really that big of a threat, then we'll try to help you convince him to go to the man-village." Bagheera was shocked by this statement, "But there's something else you should know. We know what kind of power he has and what was stolen from us were three more stones just like it. If those stones end up in the wrong hands or paws could end the lives of billions. We're were trying to find the stone and hide them so no one can take them. Trust me, we need to get back what was stolen first, before Shere Kahn or someone worse gets their hands on them."

"If you agree help use get the Stones first," Elsa joined them, "All of them. We'll also help convince Mowgli that he needs to be with his people for his own safety."

Bagheera gave it a moment of thought. He certainly didn't like the fact there were more Stones like the one Shere Kahn had, plus they were willing to help him bring Mowgli back to where he belongs, so the choice was easy to make, "Well, that might work. Perhaps if he meets someone from his own kind it could convince him to head our warnings and return to the man-village. And if there are truly more of these Stones then we must get them before they're used. It's a deal."

Everyone sighed in relief, before the panther asked, "Now tell me, who stole these Stones? I know the jungle like the back of my paw, I might know where to look."

Sora was about to tell him how when they all heard someone call out, "Bagheera! Bagheera!"

"Who was that?" Anna inquired.

"Trouble!" Bagheera looked back toward the voice.

"You mean the voice is in trouble? Or is the trouble?" Olaf asked.

"Either Baloo is in trouble, or he's going to be." Bagheera groaned as he ran over toward the voice, "But if I'm being honest, it took longer than I thought."

Everyone quickly followed in case if the Heartless were involved, when they reached a small cliff the saw a bear climb just in the exact moment they arrived as he yelled, "Bagheeraaaaa!" Everyone screeches and sits stunned for a while as the bear laughed sheepishly, "Oh, you heard me, huh?" He then noticed Sora and the others, "So, who're your friends?"

"Never mind that. Mowgli? Mowgli?!" He called out for the boy but when he realized he was gone he turned to Baloo, "All right, what happened? Where's Mowgli?"

Elsa wondered, "Okay... now the bear can talk?"

"I can do more than that," Baloo smiled, "I can sing and dance too!"

Olaf gasped with joy, "YOU TOO!"

Bagheera faced palmed himself, before telling the bear, "Focus! Where's Mowgli?!"

Baloo recalled the whole event, "They ambushed me, thousands of them! I jabbed with my left, then I swung with the right, and then I..."

"Oof, for the last time, what happened to Mowgli?" Bagheera demanded as he just wanted to get to the point.

Baloo replied, "Like I told ya, them mangy monkeys carried him off."

Anna gasped in horror, "Hey! Those were the same monkeys that stole the Stones and our other stuff!"

"Must be. Those primate buggers are nothing but trouble if you asked me." Baloo grumbled about what just happened.

"Okay so. Where did they take him?" Elsa asked the bear.

"The ancient ruins." Bagheera realized, "Oh, I hate to think of what will happen when he meets that king of theirs."

Everyone, except Baloo, was confused about what the Panther was talking about...

---

Meanwhile, at the ancient ruins, two monkey guards stood by the entrance, holding their bananas as if they were rifles. One of the monkeys turned to his partner, "Hey."

"…Myeah?"

He hesitated for a moment, but asked, "You ever wonder why we're here?"

The monkey sighed before replying, "It's one of life's great mysteries, isn't it? Why are we here? I mean, there's gotta be millions or billions of worlds out there and we're stuck on this one. If there's life are on any other worlds out there, why did we end up on this one? And suppose there are other worlds... Then ours is just a little piece of something much greater. So we could have just as easily ended up somewhere else, right? I dunno, man, but it keeps me up at night."

"…"

"…"

After a brief moment of silence, he replied, "...the heck?! I mean why are we out here when everyone else is little partying inside?!"

"Oh… uh…"

"And what was that thing about other worlds?"

"Uh… hm? Nothing."

"…You wanna talk about it?"

"No, no, I'm good."

"…You sure?"

"Yeah, I'm sure."

There was an awkward pause before the monkey continued, "Seriously, though. Why are we here? King Louie just sent a bunch of monkeys to get some man-cub, and a bunch of mankind stuff, and everyone else is inside just partying and waiting. Yet, we're always out here guarding the entrance."

"Someone needs to guard the entrance so no intruders break-in," The monkey shrugged, "I thought that was obvious."

"From what?!" His partner shrugged, "The rocks? The trees?!"

"You mean you didn't hear?" The other monkey asked, "Shere Kahn is back and there's like a bunch of monsters out there! Freaky stuff!"

"So? What does King Louie except us to do about it," The first monkey pointed out, "He makes us carry freaking bananas as weapons! This isn't going to do anything to them! I say we just head inside and join in the fun!"

"Dude, we have our orders!" His partner argued, "King Louie is counting on us!"

The first monkey rolled his eyes, "Of course, you'd say that! You're such a kiss-up!"

His partner glared, "At least, I'm not lazy!"

Just then the monkeys that Louie had sent off returned with the outworlders clothes and a boy who complained, "LET GO OF ME!"

The two just watch the events at what happened, as the first monkey sighed, "We got the weirdest lives..."

---

Inside the ruins, King Louie was singing to himself as the other monkeys danced around, when one of his subjects reported, "Ha, ha, we got him, King Louie!"

"Man, we got him, we got him!" Another nodded.

King Louie looked up as they brought down Mowgli, "Ha, ha, ha, So you're the man-cub? Crazy!"

The boy glared at him, "I'm not as crazy as you are! Put me down!" The monkeys then dropped Mowgli on the ground. He glared at them, "You cut that out!"

"Cool it, boy. Unwind yourself." King told him before briefly singing to himself again. He then shook his hand with his foot, "Now come on. Let's shake, cousin."

"What do you want me for?" Mowgli demanded. King Louie explained, "Word has grabbed my royal ear, have a banana..." He suddenly threw a banana into Mowgli's mouth before he continued, "...that you want to stay in the jungle."

Mowgli replied with his mouth still full, "Stay in the jungle? I sure do."

"Good. And ol' King Louie..." He told him as he briefly sang to himself before gesturing to himself, "...that's me, can fix it for you. Have two bananas..." He then threw two bananas into Mowgli's mouth as he asked, "Have we got a deal?"

Mowgli nodded with his mouth even fuller, "Yes, sir. I'll do anything to stay in the jungle."

"Well then. I'll lay it on the line for ya." He told him as he jumped down from his throne, "A bop-bop do-do do-be-do..." He clapped his hands and sang, "Now I am the king of the swingers, oooh... The jungle V.I.P... I've reached that top and had to stop... And that's what's botherin' me..."

"I wanna be a man, man-cub... And stroll right into town... And be just like the other men... I'm tired of monkeyin' around..." King Louie sang as he danced, "Ohh, oobie-do..."

"Bop-do-wee..." The monkeys sang.

Lowie continued, "I wanna be like you~"

"Hum dee oobee-do-ba..."

"I wanna walk like you..." He sang.

The monkeys joined in, "Tee..."

"Talk like you..." King Louie sang.

"Too..."

"Too~" King Louie sang.

"Wee be-dee be-dee do..."

"You see it's true~" He sang.

"Shoo-ba dee-do..."

"An ape like me~" King Louie continued.

"Shoo-be do-bee do-bee..."

"Can learn to be~ Human~ too~" He sang before perform a trumpet solo...

---

Outside the ruins, Bagheera, Baloo, Sora, Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Kristoff, Sven, Marshmallow, Captian Rex, and Spider-Man arrived at the ruins as they spotted two monkeys guarding the entrance as they argued among themselves. Sora wondered, "Is this where they're holding Mowgli and our stuff."

Bagheera nodded, "I'm certain of it."

Rex commented, "It looks they got two guarding the entrance if they spot us, they could alert the others and our chances of getting the kid or the Stones won't be so good."

"What we'll have to do is survey the area. And figure out where they're all posted. I could use my spidey stealth skills to pick them off one by one." Peter suggested a plan.

"Uh...What skills?" Baloo inquired.

"He claims he's part spider," Bagheera whispered to Baloo.

"Ah. Gotcha." Baloo winked while snickering at how ridiculous that sounds.

"You guys think I'm crazy, don't you?" Peter muttered with annoyance.

"What we NEED is a distraction," Rex commenter before gesturing off in one direction as Anna began to look around, "If I can create a big enough diversion, it'll have the guard go check it out, so we can sneak inside."

Anna knelt down to pick something up as Baloo gesture to Marshmallow, "What the big guy? No way, he's sneaking in there unnoticed."

"He's our backup plan if we get spotted," Rex explained as Anna picked up a rock to examine it. The Clone Captain turned to Marshmallow, "If you hear us in trouble, come rushing in for some action."

Marshmallow nodded as Anna tossed the rock a few times. Sora wondered, "Well, we've got a plan. But how will we distract them?"

Anna smiled fondly as she gave a rock a nod as Rex thought, "Well, I packed a few detonators for emergencies so maybe if I sent off some explosives a couple a miles away..."

Anna then proceeded to throw the rock in the direction Rex pointed making a small clatter getting the monkeys' attention, "What was that?"

"See! I told you there was a reason why we're out here!" The second monkey stated, "C'mon! Let's check it out!"

"Fine, fine," The first monkey stated, "But if it turns out to be nothing, which knowing us it probably will, I'm eating my banana weapon."

Rex just stared as the two guards just left their positions, "Or just a simple rock will do the trick."

Sora turned to Anna, "How'd you know that would work?"

Anna smirked, "They didn't seem that bright."

Kristoff nodded, "Well, it seemed to work so I'm not gonna complain."

"Then let's hurry before they come back!" Bagheera told the group as they made a dash to the ancient ruins...

---

Meanwhile, Mowgli was laughing as he danced to the music. He chuckled, "Gee, cousin Louie, you're doing real good."

"Now, here's your part of the deal, cuz." Louie leaned to the boy as he whispered, "Lay the secret on me of man's red fire."

Mowgli raised an eyebrow as he admitted, "But I don't know how to make fire."

Louie just thought he was kidding as he sang, "Now, don't try to kid me, man-cub...I made a deal with you...What I desire is man's red fire...To make my dream come true..."

---

Baloo, Bagheera, Sora, Elsa, Anna, Rex, Olaf, Spidey, and Rex reached the walls of the Ruins as they heard King Louie sing, "Now give me the secret, man-cub...Come on, clue me what to do...Give me the power of man's red flower...So I can be like you..."

Bagheera realized, "Fire! So that's what that scoundrel's after."

"Okay," Rex commented, "I seriously doubt the kid knows how to make fire."

"I'm afraid you're correct, and there's no telling what Louie will do if he finds out," Bagheera replied.

Baloo pumped up his fists, "I'll tear him limb from limb, I'll beat him, I'll... I'll.." Soon, he was lost to the music, "...mmm, yeah, well, man, what a beat!"

Anna looked around, "Anyone see our clothes?"

Sora stated, "Or more accurately my clothes, considering the Infinity Stones are in my pockets."

Everyone looked around before Peter called out, "Found them!"

Elsa looked around, "Really? Where?"

"You're not going to like the answer," Peter muttered as he gestured to where he spotted the clothes. Everyone's eyes widened as they saw some of the monkeys dancing around wearing their clothes. Elsa turned to Peter as he shrugged, "See what I mean?"

Rex gave a chuckle, "Now that's something you don't see every day. If only I brought a camera."

Anna frowned, "Easy for you to say, you still have your armor..."

Elsa added, "And you don't have run around the jungle half-naked."

"Just let it go, Elsa." Sora rolled his eyes in amusement, "We need a plan to get our stuff back and rescue the boy."

Baloo simply danced to the beat, "Ooooh, I love that beat."

"Will you stop that silly beat business and listen! This will take brains, not brawn." Bagheera told them.

Baloo nodded as he continued to dance, "You better believe it! And I'm loaded with both!"

Bagheera glared at him, "Will you knock that off and just listen?!"

"Oh, yeah, yeah..." Baloo stopped. For about five seconds before he started to dance again.

Peter offered, "Okay, I can take the ones who got our stuff and the Stones... but I could use some help with that..."

"Right," Sora nodded, "Elsa, you mind if you give Peter a hand in getting our stuff back."

Elsa and Peter turned to each other as the slightly blushed as Rex wondered, "Uh, that's not going to be a problem is it."

Peter and Elsa turned away as they blushed harder as they denied, "NO!"

Every traveler knew they were still flustered by the unintentional kiss. However, they'd knew they still would get the job done so Sora continued, "Oooookay, guess that just leaves Mowgli. Who seems to be everyone's main focus. Any ideas."

"Maybe," Bagheera admitted as he told everyone, "Perhaps, while Baloo creates a disturbance in an addition with taking back your belongings, the rest of us will rescue Mowgli. Got that?"

Everyone nodded as it did sound like a good plan until they saw the bear walking and dancing away as he told them, "We're gone then, solid gone."

Both Bagheera and Rex exclaimed, "Not yet, Baloo!"

Realizing they now had little time to lose everyone went into position, Peter and Elsa went off in one direction to get their clothes back. Everyone else quietly sneaked around the ruins as they tried to reach Mowgli unaware that a creature in a black tattered hood was looking down upon them. Once, Bagheera was close enough to the boy, Sora gave him a nod. The panther nodded back as he tried to reach the boy when he gets slammed in the face with a door as Baloo entered the Ruins disguised as monkeys as he sang, "Hey! Da-zaap bon-ronee... Hap ba-dee dee-lap-da-non... Hene-bebe-re... Doot zaba-doo-dee-day... Doo-bam doo-boo-bee-bay... Bo-bom, za-ba-pa-panney!"

"Wow. Just... wow. I didn't know Yogi Bear was this world's RuPaul." Peter whispered a quip seeing Baloo dance in his outfit.

All of Mowgli's other rescuers stared in disbelief as Rex groaned and shook his head. King Louie on the other hand was overjoyed to see the newcomer and went off to greet him, "Abba-do-dee?"

"With a reep-bon-naza!" Baloo sang.

Louie replied unaware of the spider hero climbing on the ledges webbing the ones with their clothes up before removing them from the monkeys and passing them to the future Queen, "Eh ba-daba doy..."

Elsa caught the pair of clothes before setting them aside as she whispered, "Make sure you get Sora's. He has the Infinity Stones."

Peter, who only wore the mask of his Spider Suit, nodded as he looked around as he heard Baloo sang, "Well-a-la-ba zini..."

He spotted two monkeys, the one wearing Sora's clothes was dancing with the one wearing Elsa's ice dress. He swang over to them as he heard Louie sing, "War-la-bop, boor-la-bop..."

"See-ble-bop, dooney..." Baloo sang.

Louie sang, "Ooh, ooh, ooh!"

"With a huh, huh, huh, huh!" Baloo joined in.

Louie sang, "Rrrawr, rrrawr..."

"Get mad, baby!" Baloo nodded.

Louie sang, "Hada-lada hada-lada..."

"With a hada-lada hadoo-doo..." Baloo sang.

Louie sang, "Oodle-loodle-oodle-loodle..."

"Ooh-doo-daa-daa-daa..." Baloo sang.

As they joined together as Louie sang, "Doodle-doot, doodle-doot..."

"Zee-ba-da-da... Haba-da..." Baloo finished.

King Louie sang, "Yoo-hoo-hoo..."

"Bop-do-wee..." The monkeys sang as Anna failed to pull Mowgli to safety due to the fact she missed him.

"I wanna be like you~" Baloo sang as Sora and Kristoff made their own attempts for the boy only to miss as well.

"Hum dee oobee-do-ba..."

"I wanna walk like you..." The two sang.

"Dee..."

"Talk like you..." They sang.

"Too..."

"Too~" Baloo sang.

As Bagheera teleported on the ceiling to grab him as Peter tried to web up the one wearing Sora's outfit but grabbed Elsa's by mistake, "Wee be-dee be-dee do..."

"You see it's true~" The two sang as Baloo swung on Bagheera's tail almost making lose his balance but still winced in pain, "Someone like me~"

King Louie sang, "Can learn to be like someone like me~"

Rex tried to grab Mowgli but grabbed another monkey by mistake. He quickly knocked it out he muttered, "Dang it! Hold still kid!"

Mowgli didn't hear him as he continued dancing with the monkeys and the disguised Baloo, who exclaimed, "Take me home, Daddy!"

"Can learn to be like someone like you~" Louie and Baloo sang together.

King Louie slapped him on the back, "One more time!"

However, Baloo disguise falls off revealing he really is much to Louie's anger and Mowgli's shock as the bear sang, "Yeah! Can learn to be like someone like me~ Zee-dee-dee bop-bop-botta...Doodle-dat un-dat un-dat un-dat un-dat un-dat..." He then realized that the jig was up as he groaned, "Man..."

Peter made a dash for the monkey in Sora's clothes but something triggered his Spider-Sense forcing him to dodge an incoming metal spear causing it to crash into the wall. However, doing so made him land in the middle of the area as all the monkeys plus Mowgli turned to Spider-Man in shock. Peter rubbed the back of his head, "Um... sup, everyone!"

"It's Baloo, the bear!" A monkey recognized.

Another agreed, "Yeah, that's him but who's the older man-cub?"

"How'd they get in here?" Another asked.

"Who cares!" One declared, "They steal the stuff that we stole from some humans! Get them!"

Rex sighed as he set his blasters to stun, "So much for the silent approach."

He then lept out of his hiding spot and pulled the trigger stunning several monkeys. They then started engaging the two as Mowgli ran to the bear, "Baloo, it's you!"

As Baloo went to get Mowgli, King Louie grabbed him first but the bear chased after them. As Spidey and Rex fought off the other monkeys, Sora, Anna, Kristoff, Sven, and Olaf joined in the action. Elsa, however, looked around for the figure that attacked Peter when she recognized the spear, as well as the owner that went reclaim his weapon. Her eyes widened as Glaive turned to her with a glare. Elsa instantly fired a way of ice as the member of the Black Order dodged the wave of ice. She called out, "Guys! The Black Order is here!"

Everyone turned to face the Glaive, as he went into his battle stance. He ordered, "Heartless! Attack!"

"Anyone got eyes on the Jungle kid?!" Rex asked while shooting at the heartless.

"No clue!" Kristoff answered.

"I think the monkey king or whatever-his-name-is still has him!" Anna added while shooting with her rifle.

---

"Holy cow! Are you seeing what I'm seeing?" The former earlier monkey asked from the other end of the ruins asked watching the battle with his buddy. They had just returned when they found out the noise was nothing.

"Yeah. Those man people are shooting some really good looking red flowers out of their bananas!" The other monkey answered in excitement.

"Should we grab em?!" The monkey asked.

"No dude! I'm pretty sure those big dark bugs will make a split out of our own bananas." The other monkey dejected, "Besides, there's a bunch of us already in there! I'm pretty sure they got this!"

"Good point. Let's just sit back and see how this dance ends." The monkey leaned back and relaxed with his buddy while watching Sora and his team fight off the monkeys and heartless.

The other monkey smiled, "Welcome to the great life of laziness, my friend."

---

Sora cut down a Heartless as he went to face Glaive, "Hey, didn't Wolverine deal with you on Asgard?"

"Then you don't know me at all, boy!" Glaive replied as he pointed his spear at him, "My blade can restore me from anything. Even from disintegration. As long as it remains, I cannot die!"

Sora smirked, "Thanks for the tip!"

"I will not fail my master again," Glaive declared, "He will have the Stones and you shall pay for killing my wife!"

Their weapons clashes as Sora blocked all of Glaive's spear maneuvers with ease, his Keyblade was as dense as Glaive's spear.

"That was your wife?! Ew! Is incest allowed on your world?!" Sora mocked.

"WE WEREN'T BLOOD-RELATED!" Glaive roared his next strike pushed the hero back slightly before dodging the next strike...

Elsa climbed down the ruins stars to help her brother when she noticed the monkey in her brother's clothes. Her eyes narrowed, "Oh, no, you don't!"

She quickly went in pursuit of the monkey, quickly using her ice powers to make the floor icy causing the monkey to slip. Elsa went to get the clothes as she was tackled by a group of monkeys. Her eyes narrowed, "Get... off... of... me..."

Just then, she heard someone else land near her and started to fight off the monkeys on her. Once, the last of the monkeys kicked off, she turned to see her savior was once again Spider-Man. He sighed, "I'm glad JJ isn't here to comment on this." He then mimicked him, "SPIDER-MAN! ANIMAL ABUSER!"

He then proceeded to help her up, "Thanks. And this JJ of yours can't be that bad. He would have known you were actually saving me."

"Then you don't know J Jonah Jameson at all," Peter commented before they noticed the monkey in Sora's outfit tried to slip away again. He turned to her, "Talk about this later."

Elsa nodded as the returned to pressure the monkey with the Infinity Stones...

---

Meanwhile, while Rex, Kristoff, Anna, Sven, Baloo, and Bagheera fought off the waves of both monkeys and Heartless in an attempt to rescue Mowgli. Rex wondered, "Anyone seen where the monkey king ran off too?"

King Louie tried to make a dash away from all the fighting when he heard a voice, "Hello!" He looked around before the voice called again, "Down here!"

Louie looked down to see, Olaf as he grinned, "Hi, I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs. Also, could you please put the kid down or I can't guarantee your safety."

Louie and Mowgli stared at the friendly snowman before Louie burst out laughing, in fact, he was laughing so hard tears started rolling down his face. He calmed down as he wiped the tears from his face, "Thanks for that. I needed a good laugh." He then wondered, "Just outta curiosity, what wear you going to do."

Olaf answered, "Not call off Marshmallow."

Louie shrugged, "Okay, I'll bite. Who's Marshmallow?"

Suddenly the was a crash as something burst through the ancient ruins, Louie and Mowgli turned to see the giant snow monster roar as he began to swat away both the Heartless and monkeys. Olaf answered the king's dumbfounded expression, "That would be him."

Louie was so shocked, he actually dropped Mowgli just as Baloo caught up to the snowman and caught Mowgli. Olaf waved the king goodbye, "Thank you!"

Louie snapped out of his shock and went to try to reclaim the man-cub...

---

As Olaf and Baloo ran off with the boy, they were unaware of both Spider-Man and Elsa chasing the monkey with Sora's clothes. They two groups ran into each other making them fall down. In the confusion, Louie reclaimed Mowgli and followed his subject wearing human clothes. Both teams turned to each other and asked, "Where did he go?"

They then spotted King Louie, who had Mowgli, and the monkey, who had both Sora's clothes and the three stones. Both parties eyes widened as they declared, "There they go!"

The four then began to chase the two monkeys with their objectives. King Louie and the other monkey thought they had a chance to escape with their prizes but they ran into the direction where Marshmallow, Sven, and the other humans were. They quickly turned around and headed back the way they came. However, Elsa, Baloo, Spidey, and Olaf used this as an opportunity to grab both Mowgli and the monkey in Sora's clothes.

King Louie noticed this a minute later before chasing after them. Spidey caught King Louie coming after them and shook his head,. "Does he really need fire that badly to risk dealing us and a giant snowman? Hasn't he ever heard of a lighter?"

Everyone, even the captive monkey, turned to Peter as Elsa asked, "What's a lighter?"

Peter sighed, "I never once thought I missed my enemies... and yet here it is. At least they actually understand my jokes." He turns to Elsa as he shyly adds, "But... um... you're definitely better company..."

"Oh... um..." Elsa blushed, "Thanks?"

Baloo rolled his eyes, "Oh, get a cave. Don't we got more important things to do right now?"

Elsa's eyes widened, "Oh right!" She then tried to remove Sora's clothes from the monkey as she stated, "Take it off!"

"No," The Monkey complained, "It's mine!"

Elsa argued as she continued to struggle with the monkey, "No! It's my brother's!"

Just then, they stopped to see Sora battling with Glaive. The latter briefly pushed Sora aside as he swung at the group of six. Everyone quickly turned around and ran the other way to avoid the swing. As Sora went to reengage the villain, the group retreated to protect Mowgli from getting hut as well making sure the Stones would not fall in Thanos's hands. However, they lost both Mowgli and their captive monkey once again to King Louie. Peter groaned, "Oh, you've gotta be kidding me!"

Louie and his monkey subject laughed only to realize why the heroes retreated as Glaive once again went after the Stones as Sora defended them from the villain. The two quickly retreated back the way the came with Mowgli and Sora's belonging alike. Spidey was able to leave a web mine for them but unfortunately, it only captured the monkey with Sora's clothes as King Louie ran off with Mowgli. Baloo and Olaf pursued them as Peter and Elsa turned to their captive monkey, as he pleaded, "If I return the stuff I stole, can I leave? Cause this is way too much for me!"

"Yes." They nodded as Peter began removing Sora's stuff. He turned to Elsa, "Go help the others. I can handle it from here. I'll join you afterward."

She nodded as she rushed off to help her friends and family...

---

Sora's blade clashed with the villain as their fight raged on. As they continued their fight, the battle for Mowgli and the Stones raged on from all sides. He knew he had to help his friends and family but first, he needed to beat this guy. And now, he knew the only way to beat Glaive, was to destroy his weapon. He quickly switched to his Oathkeeper Keyblade before transforming Light Form. His swimsuit turned white as he was powered by the light.

With each strike, blows of light came from his Keyblade pushing the villain back. Knowing it would be enough to defeat this member of the Black Order. He quickly transformed into duel form as the Oblivion Keyblade appeared in his other hand as his swimsuit became half white and half black. With enhanced speed, Sora swung blades at the servent of Thanos. He was able to get Glaive stuck in a combo before the villain pulled back...

---

Bagheera knocked both a Heartless and a monkey away as he looked around for Mowgli. He briefly spotted Sora's fight with Glaive. He could help but admire the young man's skills and power. He also finally noticed the weapons he carried as he muttered, "Well... that explains a lot."

He then went off to search for Mowgli. He would speak to the Keyblade Wielder when the man-cub was safe...

---

After Sora swipes, Glaive winced back in pain. He shook it off as he twirled his spear, "I'm not beaten yet!"

"Hey!" He heard a young woman's voice call out. He turned to see the future Queen as she held an icy sword in her hands, "Remember me?"

Sora wondered what his sister was up to as Maw grinned, "Aw... the coward girl. Finally getting some guts for a change. I enjoy tearing them out of you."

He charged at the Snow Princess with his spear raised, he struck down as Elsa used her ice blade to block the attack. He chuckled, "Do you really believe you can beat me in blade combat?"

"No," She smirked, "But that's not my intention either?"

Her ice sword infused with his spear much to his shock as she grabbed his weapon with her other hand and began to freeze it. Once it had a think layer of ice, she called out, "Sora! Go!"

She let go of both weapons as she pushed him towards her brother. Maw turned to Sora swinging both of his Keyblades at him. He raised his spear to block the attack. Much to his horror, Sora's Keyblades shattered his weapon to pieces. He looked down to his fallen weapon and fell to his knees as he cried out, "NNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOO!"

He then faded away into darkness. Sora smirked as he turned to his sister, "Wow! How'd you hear that his weapon was also his own weakness?"

"Uh..." Elsa froze as she shrugged, "Lucky guess?"

Just then, it occurred to Sora was her actual plan was. He deadpanned, "You were just hoping to disarm him. You had absolutely no idea his spear was connected to his life."

"Oh, yeah," Elsa nodded as she turned to where the member of the Black Order once was, "It was all just sheer coincidence."

Sora shrugged, "Well, at least the Stones are safe... you did get the Stones back, right?"

"We caught the monkey with your stuff," Elsa answered, "Spidey's getting them from him now. And we were able to reclaim everything else too."

"Good." Sora nodded, "That just leaves Mowgli then once he's safe, we'll try to get this world's Infinity Stone from Shere Kahn."

Elsa nodded as they ran off to join the others. Sora swung his Keyblades cutting down Heartless and knocking away monkeys as his twin sister blasted away groups of Heartless away...

---

Once, Peter was able to get everything the monkey stole from Sora and confirmed that he also reclaimed the Power Stone, Time Stone, and Reality Stone, he set the monkey free and swung off to help the others. He swung to the side of the ruins, "Okay, now, where's Kaz-Zar of the Savage Land Juinor?"

He then spotted both Olaf and Baloo trying to get the boy away from Louie, "And there he is... in the middle of a tug of war. Now, how to ditch the orangutan?"

Spider-Man then noticed all of the weak structures and pillars around the ancient ruins, "Well, this place is condemned.."

He then proceeded to knock down the week structures as Sora noticed what he was up to. He grinned, "Aw, that's Brilliant!"

He then placed and hand to his heart as he called out to a summon, "GIVE ME STRENGTH!"

Just then, coding appeared around Sora as the video game screen of Fix-It Felix Jr. The image of Wreck-It Ralph fell until he came out of the screen as crashed on the ground as Ralph picked himself up, Sora jumped on top of them and they were ready for action, "We're gonna wreak-it!"

Ralph then proceeded to destroy some of the pillars of the ruins as the others began to take notices, Anna wondered, "Is this part of the plan?"

"Look like it is now!" Rex nodded before pulling out a detonator and throwing it at a pillar, "Get ready to move."

The explosion took out another pillar, Marshmallow also helped them in knocking down some pillars as the ruins started to collapse. Peter grinned as he commented, "And that should bring the house down."

King Louie had Mowgli currently trying to keep him away from both Olaf and Baloo when he saw that his kingdom was falling apart. He then returned Mowgli to them as he rushed off to save the ruins by trying to hold it together himself. Baloo grinned as he placed Mowgli down as he ran over to the orangutan and started tickling him. He laughed loudly while trying to keep himself and his kingdom together.

Just then, monkeys came in with a battering ram and hit Baloo but he took Louie's place in the pillar and Louie was in another pillar spot.

Baloo stepped out of the pillar, waved Louie goodbye, and ran off. But then the whole ruins began to collapse on itself, and everyone ran off trying to get out of the ruins before it crumbles on them. Spidey did his best to make sure no one got hit by the debris, and Marshmallow shielded everyone he could as they escaped the ruins. With everyone else at a safe distance, the ancient ruins were destroyed, and Louie only held a piece of what was once his Kingdom. The two monkeys from earlier, who watched the whole events, stared in shock and awe. One of them was eating their banana as he commented, "Wow... that... was... awesome!"

King Louie turned to them with a glare, "Were the two of you just standing there and watched as those intruders broke into our Kingdom, stole the man-cub, and destroyed everything?"

The two stood their silently before one of them exclaimed, "Son of a Nobody!"

He turned to the one who still held his banana like a weapon, "You, I excepted better." He then turned to the one who was currently eating his banana, "You, on the other hand, I pretty much consider this pair of the course."

"Eh," He shrugged eating his banana, "Does this mean we're fired?"

"No," Louie shook his head with a glare, "I'm sending you two to the monkey military. You two are to meet with the Seargent there and report to him. I expect you two to leave tonight."

"Yes, sir," One of the monkeys nodded as their king walked off, "We won't disappoint you again.

The lazy one turned to his partner, "Even when being punished, still a kiss-up."

The first monkey hoped, "I hope the Seargent is nice... and we actually do something important."

"With our luck," The lazy one finished his banana, "We'll probably be stuck with a bunch of nutjobs in a box canyon doing the same thing every day and the Seargent will probably hate me."

The first monkey turned to his partner, "I hate you, Grif."

"I know, Simmons. I know."

---

Later, everyone stopped and took deep breaths after that experience. Baloo chuckled, "Whew. Ha ha ha. Man, that's what I call a swingin' party."

Bagheera rolled his eyes in annoyance, Rex turned to Peter, "We're you able to get everything back?"

Peter nodded as Sora went through his things, "Everything is present and accounted for."

Sora took out his GummiPhone and placed in Swimsuit pockets before digging further and smiled as he revealed the three Infinity Stones, "Stones are all here too. And we don't have to worry about Glaive. They're safe for now."

Everyone sighed in relief as Anna commented, "Man, that was a close one."

"Yeah," Elsa nodded before gesturing to her bikini, "Now, let's get dressed. I'm tired of running through the jungle in this."

Anna nodded, "I second that. Fun for swimming but not something I'd wear every day."

However, before they could the men stopped them as Kristoff added, "Yeah... I wouldn't if I were you."

"Why not?" Elsa complained, "Aren't you three tired running around half-naked?"

"Yeah," Peter added, "But you guys do know these monkeys were wearing our stuff for a certain amount of time."

Anna raised an eyebrow, "So?"

Sora added, "And have you heard of the animals called fleas?"

"Of course we..." Elsa nodded before her eyes widened in horror, "Oh... right..."

Anna even took a step back, "Yeah, I can wait till after they're clean."

Elsa groaned as she gestured to herself, "Can't believe I have to wear this thing longer than I had to!"

Rex turned to the princesses, "I don't see what the big deal is. Aren't all the important parts covered."

Elsa turned to the Captain, "Easy for you to say! You still have your armor!"

Olaf chuckled as he turned to Marshmallow, and the animals, "We don't wear clothes... like at all."

Mowgli turned to his fellow humans out of curiosity, "Who are you? What are you?"

Sora turned to the boy replied, "Well, Mowgli. We're human, like you... well most of us... I'm Sora, this is my twin sister, Elsa. Our little sister, Anna. And these are our friends Kristoff, Spidey, Captain Rex, Olaf, Marshmallow, and Sven."

Mowgli replied, "Yeah, I don't recall being able to make things cold or do whatever a spider can."

Elsa thought of how to comment on that, "Well... some of us are a... different kind of human but human all the same."

"Well, I'm completely normal," Anna added, "So, is Kristoff."

The ice deliverer nodded before Elsa continued, "Listen, Mowgli. We're here to help, you get back to man-village in one piece."

Mowgli argued, "But I don't want to go to the man-village, I want to stay in the jungle!"

"Haven't you noticed the monster or the creepy psychopath that tried to kill us?" Anna pointed out, "Doesn't that give you any dedication that the jungle isn't as safe as it once was?"

Bagheera nodded, "Listen to them, Mowgli. They know what they're talking about."

"So what?" He shrugged, "I can take care of myself."

Baloo nodded, "You better believe it. I teaching how to fight like a bear. I pity anyone who tries to nap him."

"You do realize he was kidnapped by a bunch of monkeys who wanted him to teach them how to build a fire." Spidey pointed out, "We literally just rescued him from them."

"He caught us off guard," Baloo told him, "It won't happen again."

Rex turned to Bagheera, "How many times was the kid's life in danger?"

"Depends how back you want to take it," He asked, "How long are we talking about here?"

Rex shrugged, "Let's make it short and say the past few days."

The panther answered, "Too many times."

"Yeah..." Kristoff nodded, "He's safer in the man village."

Mowgli crossed his arms, "As I said I'm not going to the man-village. I want to stay in the jungle."

"You heard him," Baloo agreed, "Besides, he can't go to the man-village. They'll make a man out of him."

Peter commented, "And how is that a bad thing?"

"They'll take everything that makes Mowgli who he is and change him into something he never was," Baloo stated holding Mowgli close.

"Yeah well, it's better than being buried alive by aliens and Heartless." Kristoff snorted with his arms crossed.

"Don't worry about it, he's safe with me." Baloo defended.

"Clearly." Bagheera scoffed.

"I have to agree with Petsmart Wakanda here. Was he safer before or after he was hijacked by the monkey jazz circus?" Peter inquired sarcastically.

The panther chuckled, "He's got ya there!" He leaned to Elsa, "I see why you like him."

Elsa blushed at that before clearing her throat, wanting to change to the subject, "Okay... it's getting dark. Maybe we should set up camp."

"That's not such a bad idea either," Bagheera agreed, "Let's head to the place where we first met and set up there. I noticed you a supply of food there anyway."

"Sounds good to me," Rex commented, "We scared off the snake and I doubt the monkey will come looking for us with their kingdom in pieces."

Seeing how everyone was in agreement, Bagheera walked to Sora, "Sora, might I have a word with you?"

"Sure," He turned to the others, "You guys go ahead, we'll catch up."

Elsa nodded as she left to the others, the panther turned to Sora, "Young man, I know you're not from this jungle at all. Neither are your sisters or friends. You're from another world."

"Woah... Déjà vu." Sora was shocked, he even remembered King Triton from Atlantica saying the same thing. "How do you know that?"

"In case you don't know. We don't see a lot of men around here. The only one who's been in the jungle over the past decade was only Mowgli. And no man can do the things you and your friends can do." Bagheera spoke directly.

"Well, you got a point," Sora said looking at his own Keyblade.

Bagheera then stated, "Then you really are a Key bearer." He then added, "And as the key bearer, you must already know... One must not meddle in the affairs of other worlds. I know you're trying to help and I do appreciate helping me conceive Mowgli to the main village but your family and friends are also from other worlds, are they not?"

Sora admitted, "Yeah..."

"Then you know this exactly what you're not supposed to do." Bagheera scolded him, "I know your close to them but you can't just bring people around other worlds because you feel like it..."

"I know..." Sora nodded, "But the situation is a bit more complicated than that."

Bagheera turned him slightly concerned, "What happened?"

Sora knew at this point he had to tell him. They needed his help in order to find Shere Kahn to claim the fourth Stone before Maleficent, Pete, or the Black Order did. Sora he gave him a quick summary of what happened the past few years...

---

Later that evening, the sun was beginning to set. Everyone else had secured the area to make sure no Heartless or anything else would disturb them. Rex had returned the clothes to the ship so they could be properly washed before rejoined the others. Everyone now and then, they tried to give Mowgli reasons of why it was best he went to the man village. Anna was the current one to talk to him and yet failed as she slid down the tree next to her sister. Elsa sighed, "He didn't listen to you either."

Anna shook her head, "That boy's stubbornness is gonna get him killed! I don't get it! What's so great about living in the jungle?! I mean, sure, it's beautiful! But I won't want to live here! No comfy beds, these are like tons of mosquitos, monkies that kidnap you for fire, and that's not even to mention the creepy animals that either wants to eat us or kill us!"

Peter admitted, "In the kid's defense, it's all he's ever known. He grew up here. He was loved here. The wolves that raised him lives here too. He never knew what the rest of humanity was like." He stated, "Still, I surprised to hear he's not curious about who his parents were or where actually came from. The former was most of my own thoughts when I was his age."

"You know," Elsa commented, "You never really talked about your parents. How come you live with your Aunt instead of them?" Before she quickly added, "But if you're uncomfortable with the subject..."

"It's fine," Peter reassured her as he removed his mask, "I don't remember much of them. I was really little when they dropped me off at my Aunt and Uncle's. Years, later I was told they were government spies and traitors. I refused to believe that, so I dug into it a little and found proof that they were heroes that gave their lives to protect me and our country."

Elsa looked to him with sympathy, "I'm so sorry."

"It's fine," Peter reassured her, "I proud of who my parents were and I'm glad it was Aunt May and Uncle Ben who raised me."

After a brief moment of silence, Anna noticed Peter and Elsa gaze to each other's eyes before she cleared her throat getting their attention. She then asked, "Sorry, back to the topic. Did you tell him that? You two have some command ground."

"Yep. His answer was just the same. I mean I never lived anywhere but the concrete jungle is known as New York City. But it wouldn't stop me from seeing what's beyond my boundaries." Peter remarked.

"Well, you sure have seen a lot since you've been with us." Elsa grinned.

"I think. We all have." Peter agreed.

"Yeah." Anna smiled, "You've been on every world we've been to... even if you did stowaway."

Peter sighed as he realized, "You're not ever going to let that go."

Anna giggled as Kristoff nodded, "Well, it's true."

Peter moaned as Elsa smiled, "Well... for what it's worth. I'm glad you did."

The New Yorker turned to Elsa in shock, "You do?"

Elsa smiled and nodded before they heard footsteps walking towards them and they spotted Bagheera and Sora walking towards them. Elsa stood up, "So, what was that all about?"

Sora told her, "He knows."

Elsa's eyes widened in shock as she turned to the Panther, "Really?!"

The panther nodded as Sora reassured, "It's okay. We can trust him. He's also agreed to help us track the Infinity Stone from Shere Kahn."

Bagheera told them, "He warned me of what will happen if we don't get to them first. No one will be safe if Thanos gets all six and the worlds will be doomed if you don't first. Just promise me, once the worlds are free from the box, you hide them so no one can misuse them."

"Of course," Elsa smiled, "That was our plan anyway."

"Good," Bagheera nodded, "Now, then even without the Infinity Stone, Shere Kahn is no pushover. And Mowgli takes first priority."

Sora nodded, "He's right. We can't keep Mowgli safe and get the Infinity Stone at the same time." He then asked, "Any luck?"

The whole group groaned in annoyance, Sora sighed, "Still?"

"Man, he's a tough nut to crack," Kristoff nodded, "Metaphorically speaking, kid's as fragile as a flower."

Peter nodded, "Yeah, he's no George of the Jungle."

Elsa turned to him as she assumed, "I assume that's a reference from home."

"Oh," Peter turned to her as she nodded, "Yeah."

Elsa shyly walked up to him, "You'll have to show me once this is all over."

"I'd like that," Peter blushed as he rubbed the back of his head.

Bagheera sighed, "Even speaking with his fellow man still no luck."

"It's still early," Sora reassured him, "I'll give it a try and if that doesn't work, we'll think of something else."

Anna looked between Peter and Elsa, noticing the tension between the two. She also noticed Sora was smiling for them, the jealously returned for a moment before she cleared her throat, "Hey, Sora... Could we talk? Alone?"

"Huh?" He turned to his little sister, "Sure Anna."

Kristoff turned to Sven and Olaf, "We'll help Rex set up the tents."

As they left, Elsa grabbed Peter's hand, "We'll double-check for Heartless."

Peter was shocked about this before just deciding to go along with it, as the two left. Sora turned to his sister, "So, what did you want to talk about?"

Anna hesitated before telling him what's been bothering her...

---

Peter looked around before admitting, "Spider-Sense isn't picking up anything so I think we're safe."

"Probably doesn't hurt to check," Elsa admitted as he nodded in agreement.

After a brief moment of silence, they turned to each other, "I'm sorry." They blinked before asking each other, "You're sorry?"

Elsa cleared her throat, "I was the one who kissed you're earlier."

"Yeah, but that wasn't your fault," Peter admitted, "And I should have stopped you."

"I caught you off guard," Elsa argued, "And it wouldn't have happened if I hadn't looked into..." She shivered, "That thing's eyes."

"You know what," Peter shrugged, "Instead of just apologizing to each other repeatedly making this thing more awkward. Let's just forgive each other and forget that it ever happened."

"Oh," Elsa smiled shyly, "I'm okay with that."

Peter and Elsa were to check around the area, unaware of what was about to happen...

---

"...and that's why I'm upset," Anna finished explaining.

Sora stared at her, "So, you're jealous that I gave Elsa love advice for Peter but not for you with Hans, who I really don't like... like at all?"

Anna sighed, "Well... yeah..."

Sora rubbed his eyes, "Right, I guess I never told you."

"Told me what?" Anna wondered.

Sora reassured, "Well, you know I love you right?"

Anna nodded, "Yeah?"

"And we love Elsa," Sora continued, "Right?"

Anna nodded, "Of coarse

Sora explained, "Well, both Peter and Elsa had rough moments in life... and I believe... this could be the key to healing their pain."

Anna raised an eyebrow even as the music started playing, "What do you mean?"

Sora sang, "I can see what's happening~"

"What?" Anna asked.

Sora gestured to Peter and Elsa, "And they don't have a clue~"

Anna looked around before asking, "Who?"

"They'll fall in love and here's the bottom line~" Sora explained, "The isolation goes down the tube~"

"Oh?" Anna perked up.

"The sweet caress of twilight~" Sora mimicked French accent humorously before resuming as he looked among the horizon of the jungle as Anna observed his hand gestures, "There's magic everywhere~ And with all this romantic atmosphere~ Love is in the air~"

---

Meanwhile, with Peter and Elsa slowly began exploring the beautiful jungle area which seemed so peaceful, it was almost like the whole jungle and the animals living it were sing.

"Can you feel the love tonight~"

Peter leaped down a huge rock as he helped Elsa down as they made their way to the river.

"The peace the evening brings~"

Elsa smiled as the lake seemed to have a natural glow to it, making it even more beautiful than the day...

"The worlds, for once, in perfect harmony~ With all its living things~"

Peter turned to Elsa, as he thought in his head, "So many things to tell her~ But how can this be~ The truth about my feelings~ Impossible... She cannot be with me~" Peter then wondered, "Did I sing that in my head?"

"I'm holding back, I'm hiding~," Elsa thought to herself as she turned to Peter and then to her own hands, "But what I can decide~ How can I be feeling these emotions~ The emotions deep inside~"

Elsa turned back to Peter, her eyes widened as she spotted the return of Kaa. However, Peter focused on Elsa, who backhanded webbed up the snake without even looking.

"Can you feel the love tonight~"

Elsa sighed in relief before he held on to her and began to swing off to a place that won't disturb them.

"The peace the evening brings~"

Elsa seemed a bit shock but held on to him as he swung them to the treetops to get a better view of the camp.

"The worlds, for once, in perfect harmony~ With all its living things~"

Once on a high tree branch, Elsa gazed to the stars in the night sky as he gasped in awe.

"Can you feel the love tonight~"

Peter smiled as they enjoyed the view unaware that love was in the air.

"You needn't look too far~"

Elsa began to subconsciously took his hand much to Peter's shock.

"Stealing through the night's uncertainties~ Love is where they are~"

Peter however smiled as she moved in closer to him as they enjoyed the evening together...

---

Meanwhile, back with Sora and Anna, the former continued explaining, "And if they fall in love tonight~" Anna sniffed as tears of happiness fell from her cheeks as her brother continued, "It can be assumed~"

Anna joined in as she finally understood, "Her isolation days~ In Arendelle is history~"

They then concluded together, "In short the love~ will bloom~"

The music finally stopped, as Anna whipped the tears from her face, "Okay, I see why you helped them. It's healthy for them."

Sora then wondered, "So, do you still feel a little jealous?"

"Yeah. I don't mean to be. What you were doing for Peter and Elsa is a very good thing and I hope things work out for them both." Anna said honestly. "But I don't see why I can't have the same thing with Hans?"

"Peter has had our back all throughout this trip. And showed us what he really is in action. Hans happens to show up out of nowhere claiming he's done some good, but never has shown what good he's done." Sora stated with his arms crossed.

"Oh come on Sora." Anna groaned.

"Not to mention he's holding Riku's old Keyblade. The same one that was given to him when he was lost in darkness. The one he used to betray me. And the same Keyblade that was broken and lost in the dark realm." Sora added and looked like he had some old wounds. "If you had been with me when it all happened, you would understand."

"I'm sorry, I know it was hard to go through but..." Anna tried to say.

"What I'm trying to understand is Hans just happens to have it. Fixed and pops up everywhere we go when he could've come to us before we even started this journey. Not to mention Riku never mentioned him in the message. All of this is just a huge red flag for me." Sora said being skeptical. Anna pouted a little as Sora sighed, "Look, you know that I love both you and Elsa and I want what's best for you. So, if you do find love on this journey, it's going to be with the right guy. Besides, we're still young. We've got all the time in the universe."

Anna sighed before nodding, "You're right... although we still have to save it first."

"Right," Sora nodded, "Now, come on, let's see if I can convince Mowgli to return to the man-village before he goes to bed."

Anna nodded as she followed her brother to the ten-year-old...

---

Later that evening, Peter noticed how late it was getting, "I think we should be good..."

Elsa nodded, "Yeah, I think we're safe for now. We should check on the others."

Peter nodded as he used a web to help carry them down. Rex was leaning on a tree as he grinned, "So, you kids have a good night?"

Shock by the Clone Captian, they looked away from each other as they blushed. Elsa stuttered, "Rex... We were just looking out... you know... for any Heartless."

"Right, well," Rex played along, "You should probably rejoin the others before they start assuming things."

"Right," Peter nodded, "Come on, Elsa."

The future Queen of Arrendelle followed the New Yorker as Rex muttered to himself, "Man, I need to get myself a woman."

He then followed the couple in denial, Sora groaned, "Okay, there's bravery and then there is stupidity."

Peter sighed as he knew what that meant, as he admitted, "I think we can all guess were that kid falls under."

Bagheera commented, "Now, you know how I feel since this whole thing started."

"Right, he's not going to listen to us," Rex commented, "He made that perfectly clear. Anyone have any other ideas."

Sora thought for a moment before turning to Bagheera, "What if we get Baloo to do it?"

"That oaf?" Bagheera asked, "What makes you think Baloo will help us?"

"Well, we've seen he does care for Mowgli," Sora admitted before asking, "Does he know Shere Kahn?"

Bagheera nodded, "Of course, everyone who lives here knows Shere Kahn, one way or another."

Seeing where Sora was going with this, Elsa stepped in, "But does he know he's returned to this part of the jungle."

The panther opened his mouth when he closed it, "No... he might not."

Sora continued, "Mowgli trusts Baloo. If we can warn him why he needs to return to the Man-Villiage, he might take him back there himself."

Anna shrugged, "I don't know guys, even if we do convince Baloo, Mowgli might feel betrayed if he tries to explain it to him."

Peter asked the princess, "Do you have any other ideas? Because I'm open to any idea where he willing returns to his own kind."

Anna sighed, "No, not really. Not without dragging him there by force."

Marshmallow didn't seem to have a problem with that idea, Bagheera shrugged, "Very well, let's talk to him. I just hope has better luck than we do."

Everyone went to Baloo was he used leaves to tuck the child in, Sora called out, "Hey, Baloo?"

Baloo shushed them, "Shhh! Keep it down, you're gonna wake little buddy. Yeah. He's had a big day, it was a real sockaroo. You know it ain't easy learning to be like me."

Bagheera replied, "Pah! A disgraceful performance. Associating with those undesirable, scatterbrained apes. Huh. I hope he learned something from that experience."

"Yeah... scooby-dooby, dooby-doo.." Mowgli sung in his sleep.

Baloo laughed, "Ha, ha. That's my boy."

Bagheera groaned as everyone walked toward the water, "Oh, nonsense. Baloo, come over here. We'd like to have a word with you."

He raised an eyebrow as he followed, "A word? You gonna talk some more?" He figured he had nothing to lose so he followed along, "All right, what's up everyone?"

Kristoff spoke, "Baloo, Mowgli must go back to the man-village. The jungle is not the place for him."

Baloo replied, "I grew up in the jungle. Take a look at me."

"Yes, just look at yourself. Look at that eye." Bagheera told him as they stared into the river.

They saw they both had each one eye swollen since the fight. Peter was shocked they never noticed it until now, "How long has that been there?"

Baloo smiled, "Yeah. It's beautiful, ain't it?"

"Frankly, you're a disreputable sight," Bagheera argued.

Baloo smiled, "Why, you don't look exactly like a basket of fruit yourself."

Bagheera then noticed he himself had a black eye before groaning, "D'oh! Ballo, you can't adopt Mowgli as your son."

Baloo asked, "Why not?"

"How can we put it? Baloo, birds of a feather should flock together." Elsa told him.

Baloo shrugged. Bagheera nodded as he explained, "She's right. You wouldn't marry a panther, would you?"

"I don't know." The bear shrugged before joking, "Ha ha, come to think of it, no panther ever asked me."

Bagheera told him, "Baloo, you've got to be serious about this."

"Oh, stop worrying, Baggy, stop worrying, I'll take care of him," Baloo told him.

Sora raised an eyebrow, "Yes, like you did when the monkeys kidnapped him, huh?"

"Can a guy make one mistake?" He asked.

"Not in the jungle. And another thing, sooner or later, Mowgli will meet this Shere Khan." Anna explained to him

That name got Baloo worried, "The tiger? What's he got against the kid?"

Bagheera answered, "He hates man with a vengeance, you know that. Because he fears man's gun and man's fire."

"But little Mowgli don't have those things." Baloo pointed out.

Bagheera replied, "Shere Khan won't wait until he does. He'll get Mowgli while he's young and helpless. Just one swipe..."

Baloo's eyes widened in horror, "No. Well, what are we gonna do?!"

"We'll do what's best for him," Sora explained.

Baloo nodded, "You better believe it, you name it now I'll do it."

"Good. Then make Mowgli go to the man-village." Rex told him.

Baloo was shocked, "Are you out of your mind? I promised him he could stay here in the jungle with me!"

"That's just the point. As long as he remains with you, he's in danger. So it's up to you." Peter pointed out.

Baloo asked, "Why me?"

"Be-because he won't listen to me. He won't listen to any of us." Bagheera answered.

Baloo frowned starting to see their point, but that didn't mean he liked it, "I love that kid. I love him like he was my own cub."

"Then think of what's best for Mowgli and not yourself," Elsa told him.

Baloo asked them, "Well, can't I... Well, can I wait until morning?"

"It's morning now." Bagheera pointed. Baloo looked around and saw that the sun was up. Bagheera told him, "Go on, Baloo."

Sora nodded as he added, "May your heart be your guiding key."

Baloo sighed as he walked up to Mowgli, "Uh..."

"Ummmm..." Mowgli mumbled in his sleep.

Baloo gulped, he didn't want to do it but he knew it was the best chance of being safe, "Oh boy. Mowgli? Mowgli? Uh, it's time to get up."

Mowgli woke up and stretched, "Oh. Hi Baloo."

"Hi. Hey, rub that sleep out of your eyes. You and me, eh, we've got a long walk ahead of us." Baloo told him.

Mowgli beamed, "Swell! We'll have lots of fun together."

"Sure. yeah. Yeah, uh.. let's hit the trail, kid. See you around, eh, Bagheera. Sora. Elsa. Anna. Kristoff. Sven. Olaf. Marshmallow. Spidey. Rex." Baloo told them.

Mowgli waved them goodbye, "Well, good-bye, everyone. Me and Baloo, we've got things to do."

"Good-bye man-cub. And good luck." Bagheera told him silently, he then turned to the others, "Well, that's that. Now, if we are to get the Infinity Stone from Shere Kahn, we need to think smart. We won't just part from it willingly."

Rex twirled one of his blasters, "Luckily, we have very things he fears... we can work with that..."

---

Meanwhile, with Mowgli and Baloo. The former told the bear, "Come on, Baloo. All we've got to do is..." The boy started singing, "Look for the bare necessities... Some good old bare necessities... Forget about your worries and your strife..."

The boy then grabbed two bananas before tossing one to Baloo, who frowned even as he caught it. Mowgli continued singing the song, "I mean the bare necessities...That's why a bear can rest at ease...With just the bare necessities of life... Yeah! I'll live here in the jungle all my life! Yeah, man!"

"I like being a bear." Mowgli smiled before turning to the bear, "Where are we going, Baloo?"

Well, ah... it's a.. um, well it's sort of new and..." Baloo struggled with his words.

Mowgli shrugged, "Oh, I don't care, as long as I'm with you."

"Mowgli, look buddy, there's something I've got to tell you." Baloo frowned.

Mowgli asked chasing a butterfly, "Tell me what, Baloo?"

"Gee whiz. How did old Baggy put it? Ah, Mowgli? Hah, you wouldn't marry a panther, would you?" Baloo asked.

Mowgli laughed, "Heh-heh. I don't even know what you're talking about."

"Mowgli, don't you realize that you're a human? Like Sora, Anna, Elsa, and the rest of them?" Baloo replied.

The boy shook his head, "I'm not anymore, Baloo. I'm a bear like you."

"Little buddy, look, listen to me," Baloo told him.

However, Mowgli tried to play around with him, "Come on, come on, Baloo."

"Now Mowgli, stop it now, now hold still. I wanna tell you something, now listen to me." Baloo tried to get his attention.

When he finally did Mowgli asked, "What's the matter, old papa bear?"

"Look Mowgli, I've been trying to tell you, I've been trying all morning to tell you, I've got to take you back to the man-village!" He finally said it.

Mowgli's eyes widened in horror, "The man-village?!"

"Now look, kid, I can explain." He tried to explain.

Mowgli felt betrayed as he slowly backed away from him, "But you said we were partners..."

"Now, believe me, kid, I, I..." Baloo tried to explain.

Mowgli replied, "You're just like old Bagheera..."

"Now just a minute, that's going too far..." Baloo told him but Mowgli won't hear as he ran away as Baloo called out, "Hey, Mowgli, where are you going? Wait a minute! Stop! Wait! Wait! Listen to ol' Baloo. Mowgli? Mowgli? Mowgli! Mowgli? Mowgli?"

---

Meanwhile, as everyone else was figuring out a plan to deal with Shere Kahn when Sora heard Baloo calling out for Mowgli. His eyes widened, "Oh, that doesn't sound good."

Elsa muttered, "Oh, don't tell me..."

Everyone quickly rushed to where Baloo was when the Panther wondered, "Now what's happened?"

He replied, "You're not going to believe me, Bagheera, but look, now I used the same words you guys did, and he ran out on me."

"Ugh! I was afraid something like this would happen." Anna groaned as she face-palmed herself.

Rex commented, "We have to hurry then. Last I check with the scans, the Infinity Stone was getting closer, which means Shere Kahn can't be too far behind!"

"Why, don't just stand there. Let's separate. You take the Sora, Peter, Elsa, and Marshmallow, while I'll take Anna, Kristoff, Rex, and Olaf, to seek others to help us. We've got to find him!" Bagheera told them.

Sora nodded, "Then let's go!"

As the group split up, Baloo stated, "Oh, if anything happens to that little guy, I'll never forgive myself."

Elsa reassured him, "We'll find him. Somehow."

---

Meanwhile, the tiger Shere Khan prowling in the grass. He snuck up close to a deer grazing, lies down ready to pounce, but elephants trumpet, and the deer ran away. He groaned, there goes his lunch. The elephants marched as the sung, "Hup, two, three, four... Hup, two, three, four... Keep it up, two, three, four..."

"What beastly luck. Confound that ridiculous Colonel Hathi." Shere Kahn muttered to himself.

Hathi ordered, "Company, sound off!"

The elephants marched and sung, "Oh we march from here to there~"

"And it doesn't matter where~" One elephant sang.

The elephants sang, "You can hear us push~ Through the deepest bush~ Hup, two, three, four~"

"With a military air!" Hathi sang.

As the others repeated, "With a military air!"

---

Meanwhile, Bagheera was with his search party when they heard the sound off of elephants blowing in the distance. It sounded like a group in unison. Rex inquired looking out, "The heck was that?"

"Uh...It wasn't me. I only had coconuts last night." Olaf said meekly thinking it was gas.

Up in the tree, Bagheera turned as his eyes widened, "The jungle patrol."

"The what?" Kristoff looked confused as Braghreea headed towards the source of the noise. Everyone tried following the panther as Kristoff called out, "Hey, wait up!"

---

The elephants continued to march and sing, "We're a crackerjack bridge~ On a pachyderm parade~ But we'd rather stroll~ To a water hole~"

"Hup, two, three, four~" The youngest elephant sang.

As the Elephants sang, "For a furlough in the shade~"

The group ran to where the elephants patroled as Anna's eyes widened, "The elephants are military?!"

Kristoff sighed, "You know what... at this point, I'm not shocked. I don't a single thing will surprise me after this."

Rex turned to Bagheera, "Can they help us?"

"They just might," Bagheera nodded before calling out to them, "STOP!"

However, they kept marching as Rex removed his helmet as he shook his head, "No, if their military, then they only stop for this." Rex then ordered the elephants, "COMPANY HALT!"

The elephants stopped, crashing into each other. Hathi demanded, "Who said 'Halt?!' I give the commands around here. Now speak up, who was it?"

Bagheera's group ran up to Hathi as Rex admitted, "I did, sir!"

Hathi glared at him, "Who are you? What do you mean, taking over my command? Highly irregular you know."

"Name's Rex," The clone introduced himself, "Captian of the 501st Legion."

The Colonel raised an eyebrow, "Oh? You're in the military?"

Rex nodded, "Yes, sir."

"Well... with all due respect Captain," Hathi nodded, "I still outrank you so I'd appreciate if you didn't order my troop."

"Forgive me, sir," Rex nodded with a salute, "But we need your help."

Bagheera nodded in agreement, "He's right. Time is not on our side."

"Oh, absolutely impossible. We're on a cross-country march." Hathi dejected.

"But it's an emergency, Colonel. The Man-Cub must be found." Bagheera insisted.

"Man-Cub? What Man-Cub?" Hathi inquired.

Shere Kahn wasn't sure what Bagheera was doing hanging out without with a pack of humans, a reindeer, and some animal he's never seen before but when he heard the word Man-Cub, he leaned in as it picked up his curiosity, "How interesting..."

Hathi gestured to Anna and Kristoff, "You have two Man-Cubs already."

"We're not cubs, but we are men." Kristoff deadpanned.

"And women." Anna pipped up.

"And snowman!" Olaf chirped making the elephants gasp in shock of the talking snowman.

"By Jove!" Hathi gasped at Olaf in shock.

Olaf looked down at and covered himself blushing, "Oh sorry. Yeah, I just find clothes restricting."

Rex shook his head, "The... uh... Man-Cub, we're talking about is way young than these two."

Bagheera explained, "You've met him. He was the one I was taking to the man-village."

"Good. It's where he belongs. Now, sir, if you don't mind, we'd like to get on with the march." He told the group.

Anna shook her head as she explained, "No, no, you don't understand, sir. He's lost. He ran away."

Shere Kahn's grin grew, a Man-Cub was lost in the Jungle, completely defenseless, "How delightful..."

Hathi didn't seem to care, "Well, serves the young whippersnapper right."

Anna turned to Kristoff as she whispered, "Did he really just say 'whippersnapper?'"

Kristoff nodded, "If Spider-Man was here, he'd never let it go."

"But... but Shere Khan, the tiger, he's sure to pick up the Man-Cub's trail. And he's has some magic rock making him more dangerous than he already is." Bagheera tired to explain as Shere Kahn nodded as he played around with the Space Stone in his paws.

Hathi shook his head and chuckled. "Share Khan nonsense, poor boy. Share Khan isn't within miles of the area."

Share Khan heard that and snickered in a low growl amused by how oblivious this elephant was.

"Oh, sorry, Bagheera, all of you. Fortunes of war all that sort of thing you know. Besides if he has a magic stone or whatnot, he's out of our hands now." Hathi sighed without a care for Mowgli's inevitable demise.

Rex told him, "You need to recheck that intel because he's a lot closer than you think, sir!"

Anna then joined him, "Besides, with that Stone, he'll be a threat to everything that breaths. We need to find him and stop him before that happens or someone worse gets there hands on it."

Shere Kahn raised an eye on that last bit, however, that's when Hathi's wife, Winfred, marched up to him, "This has gone far enough... Now just a minute, you pompous old windbag!"

"Winifred? What are you doing out of ranks?" He asked in shock.

She told him, "Never mind that! How would you like our boy lost and alone in the jungle?!"

Their son, Hathi Jr., poses as an illustration for the words. Hathi replied, "Our son? But Winifred, old girl, that's an entirely different matter."

"Humph!" His wife glared at him.

Hathi nodded, "Different. Entirely."

"That boy no different than our own son. Now you help find him or I'm taking over command." Winifred threatened.

Hathi was shocked, "What? A female leading my herd? Utterly preposterous."

Anna was deeply offended by that, "And what's wrong with that?!"

Kristoff eased her down a bit, "Easy there, let his wife handle that bit."

Just then, Hathi Jr turned his father, "Pop. The Man-Cub and I are friends. He'll get hurt if we don't find him. Please Pop, sir? Please?"

"Aw.." Anna gushed thinking the Elephant calf was just adorable.

Hathi smiled down at him caving to his son's soft side. He stated as if he really was going to find Mowgli all along, "Now don't you worry son. Your father had a plan in mind all the time."

"Uh-uh... Sure you did." His wife rolled her eyes earning a look from Hathi.

"Still... Out of the mouths of kids, right?" Anna remarked about Hathi Jr convincing his father when the others couldn't.

The Colonel turned to the other elephants, "Troopers, Company, left face!" All elephants turned to him in attention before he told them, "Volunteers for a special mission will step one pace forward."

As he looked away, all elephants took one step back, except one, who then notices this before back up with the others as well, hoping no one noticed. When Hathi saw this he chuckled, "Ha, ha. That's what I like to see. Devotion to duty." He then turned to Bagheera's group, "You volunteers will find the lost Man-Cub."

Rex nodded before placing on his helmet, "Thank you, sir, we appreciate the help."

Bagheera nodded, "Good luck, Colonel. We haven't a moment to lose."

With that, Bagheera's group turned to leave before Anna called out, "Let's us know if you find anything!"

"Yes...yes..." Colonel Hathi cleared his throat and gave the order. "Well. Muglar. When the Man-Cub is sighted. You will sound your trumpet three times"

"Yes sir." Muglar saluted and tried blowing his trunk like a horn. Only for Hathi to grab it and stop him with his trunk.

"Shh! Not now soldier." Hathi scolded with a whisper.

"Sorry, sir." Muglar wheezed in a high voice from his trunk being covered.

Then Hathi gave the order to another elephant who was an acting Lieutenant.

"Lieutenant. Our strategy will be the element of surprise. You, will take one squad and cover the right flank." Hathi whispered his order, not knowing that Shere Khan was listening in which was exposing their plans to the evil tiger.

"Yes sir." His Lieutenant nodded.

"And I shall lead the other squad, on the left flank," Hathi explained making some of the other elephants raise an ear to listen to what the plan was. Then he stopped whispering and announced to his troops. "Well... COMPANY!"

Hathi yelled his march order out so so loud it even made Shere Khan wince, "Forward! March!"

The elephants began their march through the jungle knocking then any greenery in their path. Shere Kahn chuckled to himself, "Element of surprise? I say. Ha, ha, ha. And now for my rendezvous with the lost Man-Cub."

He turned around as he began his own search, knowing he'd have better luck than the others. Unlike the three with Bagheera, the Man-Cub was likely unarmed and easy to kill. Give him a good test out his magic stone before using it to hunt the rest of mankind. Although unaware to him, the Foretellers were watching him. Invi sighed, "Well, the tiger now knows..."

"Gee," Luxu shook his head, "Too bad Sora and the others don't know about this."

Gula nodded, "Well, we could warn his younger sister. Her team's the closest to Shere Kahn's location."

"I wouldn't recommend it," Aced shook his head, "They lack the power to defeat the tiger, who currently has the Space Stone."

"Aced, right," Ira nodded, "Even if they did, they'd never reach him in time."

Luxu personally couldn't care if they boy lived or died, so long as he completed the Master's orders to the letter. However, he needed to wrap things up quickly so... if Sora knew Mowgli's endanger he'd come running towards the Infinity Stone. Luxu then suggested, "Hey, how about Sora's group?"

Ira nodded, "You're right, last we checked on his group, he was much closer to Mowgli's location and likely to intercept Shere Kahn in time." He turned to the bear masked foreteller, "Aced, could you go to Sora and point him in the right direction?"

Aced nodded, "Yeah, no problem."

Ira was shocked by Aced's quick response, "Wow... I thought that take a lot more convincing. Why are you so willing to do this?"

Aced shrugged, "Well... an innocent child's life is in danger. Isn't that enough?"

Everyone stared at him before Invi realized, "You want to see if can Sora manage to hold his own against a tiger, do you?"

"Yes," He nodded, "Yes, I do."

Gula shrugged, "Well, I hope this manages to convince you to respect Sora's strength. Good luck. And may your heart be your guiding key."

Aced nodded as he summoned his Keyblade before using it to teleport himself away...

---

Many years ago, Aced enters the Master of Masters' room. The room was empty, save for him. Just then, he heard his Master spoke up, "You been here long?" He chuckled, "My bad."

Aced turned to him as he shook his head in reassurance, "No."

The Master of Masters sat down at his desk, "So, what did you want?"

Aced was caught off guard by that question. He then reminded him, "Uh... You didn't forget, did you? You're the one who called me here."

"Lighten up. I was just kidding!" The Master of Masters laughed, "I didn't forget. Give me a little credit here. I was just testing you!"

"R-right..." Aced blushed in embarrassment as he nodded.

The Master then stated, "Now then, allow me to tell you about your role. You're going to be Ira's right-hand man."

"What? Ira's right-hand man? What do you mean?" Aced asked.

The Master flips through his Book of Prophecies as he explained, "Well, Ira's gonna be the new leader after I'm gone, you see, so just stand by him. Don't disappoint."

"Explain to me, Master. What do you mean Ira's going to be leader?" Aced asked still very confused.

The Master of Masters turned to him, "What? Is that disappointment I hear? Did you want to be leader?"

"No!" He exclaimed before continuing, "I mean, if you had asked me to be the leader, that's a different story, but I wasn't trying..."

"You really wanna be leader, huh?" The Master asked.

Aced began to look bashful as he began to stutter, "I... well..."

"I know you want it, but that just isn't enough. Any chump can say..." The Master started pointing at Aced and putting on a deep voice, "'You! Here's a huge promotion. Good job!'" He then gave thumbs up before changing back to his normal voice, "...and make you head honcho, but enthusiasm alone doesn't make a great leader. Ira needs someone like you to give him a push in the right direction."

"Uh... I agree, Ira is definitely the most worthy among us. I'm sure he'll make a fine leader." Aced admitted but still was slightly disappointed. T

he Master gave a light chuckle, "Heh. Then it's settled."

"Wait." Aced spoke up, "I agreed that he is worthy. But why do we need a new leader, Master? Does, does that mean you will no longer be teaching us?"

"Well... I might disappear one day..." The Master confessed. Aced's face, mouth agape, was frozen in shock. The Master looks at him wasn't quite sure if he had heard him right, "Uh... Well... I might disappear..."

"Disappear!? Why? Where!?" Aced spoke up in a panic.

"Speak up sooner if you're listening. That was embarrassing for me!" The Master stated before continuing, "Anyway, I don't know if I'm gonna disappear or not. It's anyone's guess right now."

"But..." Aced tried to speak, however, he wasn't quite sure what to say.

The Master continued, "In any case, you need to support Ira. We both know he's quite serious. He's always just thinking and thinking and thinking behind that unicorn mask of his, so everyone will be counting on you to spur him into action."

"Uh... right," Aced replied as they both nodded in agreement.

The Master of Masters continued to explain, "You might not be entirely happy with your role, but just know that it's the most important one." He clasping Aced on the shoulder, "Capeesh?"

"Huh?" Aced wondered.

Master went on as he turned away, "Shall I elaborate? Making Ira the leader is all good in theory, but sometime later you might think..." He then spoke in a whiny voice, "'Eh, he's terrible at this,'" He then finished in his normal voice, "...in which case it'll be your job to step up. Who knows? Your leadership might be just what everyone needs. And that is your true role."

Aced smiled at that and nodded as he was satisfied with his role. The Master places his hand on his chest, "May your heart be your guiding key. Best of luck, Aced!"

---

Back in the present, Sora's group was looking around the jungle as the called out Mowgli's name. Elsa called out, "Mowgli! Come out! We're not trying to do this to hurt you!"

"We're only doing this because we want you safe!" Spidey called out, before wondering, "Huh? I wonder if this is how Aunt May felt when I don't come home before the curfew."

Baloo frowned as he panicked, "It's no use. We'll never find him in time."

Sora reassured him, "We'll find him. Trust me. We won't give up until we do."

"I know that," Baloo nodded, "I'm worried Shere Kahn finds him before we do."

Just then, they heard ruffles up ahead, Baloo's eyes widened, "Mowgli?!"

Unfortunately, the man appeared before them was very much not Mowgli, it was Prince Hans. Everyone, even Baloo, groaned in annoyance, as Peter muttered, "Great... it's Hans minus Gredel."

Elsa turned to him, "Isn't Hansel and Gredel?" Peter turned to her as she explained, "I understood that reference this time."

"That's great. But all witty references work best if we don't explain them." Peter commented.

"Sorry," Elsa muttered timidly.

"It's fine." Peter sighed before looking at Hans. "What are you doing here?"

Hans lift a finger and was about to speak when Sora cut him off, "No, no, no... I'm not dealing with you in the jungle! I know stalking us..."

Hans raised an eyebrow, "I'm not stalking you."

"Oh, so you're stalking our little sister!" Elsa's eyes narrowed.

"What?" Hans shook his head, "No! I'm just..." He then paused before wondering, "Why are you all half-naked?"

In all the panic for Mowgli, the eldest royal by five minutes completely forgot of what she was wearing, before looking down at herself before back Hans with a much greater glare as she gestured to her eyes, "Hey! HEY! Eyes up here, pervert!"

Hans raised his hands in defense looking at Elsa in the eyes, "Whoa! I wasn't..."

"Don't care!" Sora glared, "We're too busy to deal with you so go stalk us in the next world before I blow ya to Kingdom Come."

"But I wasn't..." Hans raised a finger again before summoned the Ultimata Weapon Keyblade. Hans quickly raised his hands in defense, "Okay, okay! I'm going..."

Everyone watched as he turned to leave before Elsa asked, "Is he gone?"

Sora put away his Keyblade before nodding, "Yeah, I think so..."

Everyone sighed in relief, as Peter muttered, "Man, I really don't like that guy."

Elsa then turned to see Baloo sadden face, she knew he was worried that they would be too late, the future Queen reassured him, "We won't let anything happen to Mowgli. We won't let Shere Kahn harm him."

"Not without help," A new voice spoke up.

Everyone turned to see, the bear masked warrior leaning up against the tree. Elsa's eyes widened as she realized, "Another Foreteller?"

"Huh...I guess you folks have a thing for zoo masks." Peter quipped, though he trusted these guys more then Hans.

Sora and the others stared at him before the Keyblade Wielder commented, "Nice bear mask."

"Oh, thanks. Most of the other guys made jokes saying how it was very stereotype..." Aced apperacite the complement before realizing he didn't come here to chat with them, "...ugh! No, wait! I didn't come here to talk to you about my mask. I came here to tell you where Mowgli is."

Baloo's eyes widened at that, "Mowgli?! You've seen him!"

Sora nodded, "And who are you?"

"I'm Aced and yes," He nodded, "You're not too far behind him actually. He's just a couple of miles to your left."

Elsa sighed in relief, "Oh thank goodness. An actually lead."

"Don't thank me yet," Aced told them, "Shere Kahn has learned of the boy too and he's not that from him as well!"

Everyone's eyes widened in horror as Sora gasped, "Oh no!"

Aced told them, "If you hurry, you can get to him first."

Sora turned to his group, "Come on. Let's hurry!"

Everyone quickly made a dash to their left as they hurried to Mowgli's location. Aced muttered to Sora, "I hadn't a lot of faith in you since this journey started for you. Prove me wrong."

---

Meanwhile, a group of vultures was sitting on a dead tree on the dead part of the jungle. The one called Buzzy wondered, "Hey, Flaps, what we gonna do?"

"I don't know. What you wanna do?" Flaps shrugged.

One vulture named Ziggy beamed, "I got it! Let's flap over to the east side of the jungle! They've always got a bit of action, a bit of a swinging scene. All right?"

"Ah, come off it! Things are right dead all over." Buzzy replied.

Ziggy smirked, "You mean you wish they were!"

The vultures laughed at that as Dizzy chuckled, "Very funny."

Buzzy nodded, "Okay, so what are we gonna do?"

"I don't know, what you wanna do?" Flaps shrugged again.

Buzzy signed, "Look, Flaps, first I say, 'what we gonna do?' and then you say, 'what you wanna do?' then I say, 'what are we gonna do?' you say 'what you wanna do?' 'what you gonna do?' 'what you wanna...' Let's do something!"

"Okay. What you wanna do?" Flaps asked.

Buzzy groaned, "Oh, blimey, there you go again. The same once again!"

"I've got it! This time, I've really got it." Ziggy beamed again.

Buzzy nodded, "So you got it. So what are we gonna do?"

"Hold it, lads. Look, look what's coming our way." Dizzy gestured.

They turned to a boy that was coming their way. Flaps wondered, "Hey, what in the world is that?"

"What a crazy looking bunch of bones," Ziggy commented.

Dizzy nodded, "Yeah, and they're all walking about by themselves."

They watched as Mowgli sat down on a stone. Buzzy wondered, "So what are we gonna do?"

"I don't know- and now don't start that again!" Flaps now found this annoying as well.

Ziggy replied, "Come on lads, come one let's have some fun with this little fella, this little flockey?"

They nodded as they all flew down to Mowgli. Flaps commented, "Blimey, he's got legs like a storky."

"Like a stork, heh-heh, but he ain't got no feathers." Buzzy laughed as the others joined him.

Mowgli replied, "Go ahead. Laugh. I don't care."

He then walked off as they realized something was bugging him. Dizzy asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Flaps began to feel bad, "I think we overdid it."

"We were just having a bit of fun that's all," Dizzy frowned.

Buzzy told the others, "Just look at him. What a poor little fella. You know, he must be down on his luck."

"Yeah, or he wouldn't be in our neighborhood." Buzzy nodded in agreement before calling out to him, "Hey, new kid, wait a minute, hey!"

"Just leave me alone," Mowgli told them.

Buzzy asked, "Oh, come on, come on, what's wrong? You know, you look like you haven't got a friend in the world."

"I haven't." He admitted.

Dizzy asked, "Haven't you got a mother or a father?"

"No. Nobody wants me around." He answered.

Buzzy signed as he admitted, "Yeah, we know how you feel."

"Nobody wants us around, either," Dizzy added.

Buzzy told Mowgli, "We may look a bit shabby, but we've got hearts."

"And feelings, too," Dizzy added.

Buzzy smiled, "And just to prove it to you, we're gonna let you join our little group."

"Kid, we'd like to make you an honorary vulture." Flaps nodded.

Mowgli frowned, "Thanks, but I'd rather be on my own alone."

"Uh, now look, kid, everybody's got to have friends. Hey, fellas, are we his friends?"

Flaps, Dizzy, Ziggy nodded as they began to sing, "We're your friends~ We're your friends~ We're your friends to the bitter end~"

"The bitter end~" Buzzy sang.

Flaps sang, "When you're alone~"

As the other vultures sang, "When you're alone~"

"Who comes around~" Flaps sung.

As Buzzy, Dizzy, Ziggy joined in, "Who comes around~"

"To pluck you up~" Flaps sang as they lifted him the air.

Buzzy told Mowgli, "Give us a smile."

Mowgli gave a little smile as they brought him back down, "When you are down~"

"And when you're~" Flaps began as the others joined in, "...outside looking in who's there~ To open the door~"

"Come on, kid, we need a tenor," Buzzy whispered as he encouraged him to join along.

The vultures sang as they offered Mowgli to shake their feet, "That's what friends are for~Who's always eager to extend~ A friendly claw~"

Mowgli smiled as he shook their feet, "That's what friends are for~ And when you're lost~ In dire need~ Who's at your side~ At lightning speed~"

Unknown to them, Shere Khan walked his way to them as they continued to sing, "We're friends of ev'ry creature~ Coming down the pike~ In fact, we never met an animal~ We didn't like~"

"Heh, heh. you take it, kid." Buzzy qued Mowgli.

As everyone sang together, "Didn't like~"

"So you can see~" Buzzy sang

As Ziggy joined in, "Can see~"

"We're friends~" Buzzy sang.

Ziggy and Dizzy joined in, "We're friends~"

"We're friends in need~" Buzzy sang

The rest of the vultures joined singing, "Friends in need..."

"And friends indeed~" Buzzy sang

All the vultures all stood on each other, "Friends indeed..."

"Take it easy lads, steady, steady. W-w-watch it!" Buzzy said as he tried to keep balance.

The rest of the vultures sang, "We'll keep you safe in the jungle...Forevermore..."

However, Buzz gulps in fear as he noticed Shere Kahn from the distance. Shere Kahn than sang getting everyone's attention, "That's what friends... Aaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeee... Fffffffffffoooooooorrrrrrrrr~"

"Bravo, bravo! An extraordinary performance. And thank you for detaining my victim." Shere Kahn clapped.

Flaps shook in fear, "D-don't mention it, your highness."

"Ha-ha-ha." Shere Kahn told them before adding, "Boo."

Vultures run and fly back to their tree as Dizzy said, "Let's get out of here!"

"Give me room! Run friend! Run!" Buzzy told Mowgli.

He replied, "Run? Why should I run?"

"Why should you run?" Shere Kahn wondered if the boy was trying to be brave or just plain stupid, "Could it be possible that you don't know who I am?"

Mowgli glared at him, "I know you all right. You're Shere Khan."

"Precisely. Then you should also know that everyone runs from Shere Khan." He nodded in response as he sharped his claws.

Mowgli continued to glare, "You don't scare me. I won't run from anyone."

"Ah, you have spirit for one so small. And such spirit is deserving of a sporting chance. Now, I am going to close my eyes and count to ten. It makes the chase more interesting. For me." He told him, as the vultures' eyes widened in concern for their new friend, as he turned away to close his eyes before he counted, "One. Two. Three. Four..."

Shere Khan turned back to peek and saw to see Mowgli picking up a branch fallen tree branch. He signed and warned him, "You're trying my patience..."

That's when Sora's group finally joined in, as everyone's eyes widened, Elsa gasped, "Oh, no!"

Peter nodded, "It's official. The kid doesn't have a brain."

Sora summoned his Keyblade and charged at the Tiger, "Run kid!"

As Shere Kahn quickly counted, "5-6-7-8-9-10!"

Shere Khan pounces at Mowgli, who dropped his branch, but Baloo held him by the tail, "Run, Mowgli, run!"

"Let go, you big oaf!" Sheet Kahn demanded.

Sora, Elsa, Spider-Man, and Marshmallow used this opportunity to get in front of Mowgli. Sora turned to him, "Mowgli. For once in your life, listen to us! Run! Let us handle Shere Kahn!"

"Don't need to tell me twice." Mowgli took off running as he went behind a tree.

"Except we told you over ten times!" Peter ranted at the boy who was for once listening, "And you didn't listen to us then either!"

"Spidey! Tiger first!" Elsa told him while not keeping her eyes off the tiger, "Scold Mowgli later!"

"Right," He nodded as the New Yorker went into his battle stance.

Shere Kahn really wasn't having it, first, an idiotic bear stopped him from making an easy kill. Now, more Man-Cubs stood in his way. These ones looked like they could handle themselves in a fight. Shere Kahn growled at them before roaring at them.

"RUUUUUAAAAAAGGGGHHHH!" Marshmallow roared back as his spikes sprouted up around his snowy body.

He slammed his fist to where Shere Kahn once was but a blue glow of power made the tiger and the bear that was trying to hold him vanish from their spot. He then reappeared behind the heroes. Spidey's Spider-Sense went off before Shere Kahn could strike, "MOVE!"

Everyone dodged the tigers attack as Baloo held on as he tried to hold him back. Buzzy beamed, "He's got a tiger by the tail."

Dizzy nodded, "And he'd better hang on, too."

Elsa raised her hands to blast the tiger, however, she began to notice a similar problem when they fought Kaa. She could risk hitting Shere Khan without hitting Baloo. Shere Kahn then noticed the defenseless Elsa before he tried to go after her. However, Peter grabbed her as he swung her away to safety as Sora charged in for the hit. Smacking the tiger with his Keyblade making him wince in pain. The Vultures cheered him on as Flaps called out, "Let 'em have it! Hit him!"

Peter swung Elsa to the tree branch with the vultures, he assumed, "Don't want to risk hurt Baloo?"

"Yeah," Elsa nodded, "I join in once I have a clear shot."

Peter nodded before turning to the vultures, "Uh... you guys don't mind if she sticks with you while we try to fight off Tony the Tiger, right?"

"Eh, not at all," Buzzy nodded, "We'll watch after your mate. Anyone who can kick the tigers tail is okay by us!"

"Alright...Wait she's not-" Peter almost said Elsa is not his 'mate' but blew it off. "Nevermind."

Then he swung back into the action. This tiger may have been a threat to normal animals and man. But now with the infinity stone. He's a threat to all. Shere Khan teleported away from Sora before going after the bear that was holding him back, "Take it easy, hold it, hold it. Whoa, easy, easy."

However, Shere Khan managed to get behind Baloo and bite him, "YEOW!"

Elsa, Sora, and Peter winced at that as the superhero commented, "That's outta leave a mark."

Spider-Man then fired a few Web-Shots at Shere Kahn to slow him down. He even shot a web at Shere Khan's eyes making him hiss As he scrapes it off with his paw.

"Here kitty kitty kitty." Peter mocked as he stood on top of a rock in a spidey pose. "Did anyone ever tell you you've got such a Purr-ty tail?"

Spidey made a pun before he shot an electric web at Shere Khan's butt. Shere Khan roared in anger as he began trying to slash at Peter. He goarned, "Why do all cats seem to have a thing against me?!"

Shere Khan narrowly missed before teleporting away directly to where Spider-Man was. His eyes widened under his mask, "Yipe!"

He narrowly missed the attack however, Shere Kahn did knock one of his web-shooters away. Peter groaned, "Oh, come on!"

Elsa saw it was coming her was reached out to grab it. She caught it but nearly fell off the branch in doing so if not for the vultures, Flaps reassured her, "We got you, miss!"

As Elsa held the web-shooter in her hands, she stared at it for a moment before she noticed Mowgli wasn't using his brain... as usual. She groaned, "Oh... you can not be serious right now!"

Mowgli was running over with a stick as he started hitting Shere Khan's face with it. "Take that you big bully!"

"A stick!?" Peter inquired as he ceased dodging the tiger.

"Bully?" Elsa gave him a weird look. Can this kid be even more of a noob? Or more importantly, anymore dumb? Or more importantly, anymore dumb?

Sora glared at the boy, "MOWGLI! YOU'RE NO MATCH FOR HIM RUN!"

Shere Kahn was back on Mowgli's tail, who waved his hands and panicked "Baloo, help me!"

Peter muttered, "That kid's gonna be the death of us."

Baloo mentally agreed with him as he called out, "Somebody do something with that kid!"

"Come on, lads!" Dizzy nodded as the vultures swooped in to help them while Elsa tried to figure out how to put on the web shooter.

Elsa muttered to herself, "It can't be that difficult. I've seen how Peter does it."

Flaps and Ziggy flew over to Mowgli as they picked him up and flew him away to safety. Buzzy told Baloo, "He's safe now, ha-ha-ha, you can let go, Baloo!"

"Are you kiddin'?! There's teeth on the other end!" Balloo pointed out.

Marshmallow roared at the tiger as he swung his fist at the tiger but accidentally hit Baloo instead of Shere Kahn, who teleported away at the last moment. He then reappeared in front of the bear and started to attack him as he vowed, "I'll kill you for this!"

Mowgli's eyes widened in horror as he told the Vultures, "Let go! Baloo needs help!"

Spider-Man's eyes narrowed as he rushed in to help the bear even as Shere Kahn final strike knocked Baloo to the ground. Peter then proceeded the punch tiger with his fist as he commented, "Everyone back home isn't going to believe this! Heck, I'm doing it and can't believe this!"

Shere Kahn then knocked Spider-Man away as he crashed near a rock. Shere Kahn pounced at him ready to end the web-swinger when suddenly Elsa gave out a female Tarzan yell as she swung with Peter's other web shooter and kicked Shere Kahn away. Peter stared in awe, "Whoa..."

Sora called out, "Way to go, Elsa!"

Elsa laughed as she continued to swing, "Ha! I can't believe that worked."

However, she wasn't paying attention to what she was about to swing into. Sora, Peter, Mowgli, Marshmallow, and the vultures called out, "ELSA! WATCH OUT FOR THAT...!"

Elsa then just noticed the tree directly ahead of her. Her eyes widened as she didn't know how to turn away or even stop. All she could do was let out a scream, "AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH-OOF!"

She crashing into it, leaving an imprint of her body on the tree. Everyone winced in pain, "Ooooooooh..."

Sora muttered that last bit, "Tree..."

Elsa let out a groan of pain, "Oooooooooooooowwwwwwww..."

She finally let go of the web line as she stared falling. Spidey, moved quickly to catch her in his arms, bridle style. He gave a soft chuckle to the bruised and dazed Princess, "Easy there, Ursula of the Jungle, I got ya."

Elsa giggled even in pain as she stated, "I'm just going to assume that's another reference from home..."

Peter nodded as they both began to laugh a little. Elsa finally stepped out of her daze when Shere Kahn teleported in from behind. With no one in the way, Elsa created a barrier of ice stopping the tiger in his tracks. Shere Kahn's eyes widened, "WHAT?!"

As the tiger struggled to get free from the ice, the blue Infinity Stone fell from his paw. Both hero and Princess noticed this as the latter quickly grabbed the Space Stone. Sora the smacked Shere Kahn away from his friend and sister. Marshmallow ran to join him. Just then, lightning struck a tree causing it to ignite in flames as the vultures set Mowgli down. Buzzy eyes widened as he realized, "Fire! It's the only thing old stripes is afraid of!"

"Get the fire, we'll do the rest..." Flaps told the boy. Mowgli nodded as he ran to the flaming tree.

Sora was currently holding Shere Kahn back as Marshmallow went for the punch. The hit from the giant snowman sent the mighty tiger away from Sora. As he began to recover, the vultures flew in action, "CHARGE!"

"Stay out of this, you mangy fools." Shere Kahn demanded as he tried swatting them away but kept missing them as they kept taunting him and pulled on him causing to wince in pain.

"Yeah, yeah, missed by a mile!"

"Yeah, pull his blinkin' whiskers!"

"He's a bloomin' pussycat!" They taunted making him angery.

Sora joined in the distraction as Mowgli grabbed a flaming tree branch before tying it to Shere Kahn's tail. Peter smirked under his mask as he held the ice princess, "Hey, does anyone smell something burning?"

Shere Kahn raised an eyebrow before Dizzy clarrifed, "Look behind you, chum."

The mighty tiger did so before his eyes widened in horror. He makes a run for it but no mater where he ran the flames would follow. On top of that Sora aimed his Keyblade at him and sent balls of fire at him. Shere Kahn was so scared he ran away from the fight and the jungle, getting burnt by the fire on every step. The vultures laughed, as Buzzy said, "Well, that was the last of him."

"Old stripes took off like a flaming comet." Ziggy added.

Sora ran up to his sister, and Peter as the vultures celebrated. He asked them, "Did you two get it?"

Elsa smiled as she presented the Space Stone to him, "We got it."

Sora beamed as he took the Infinity Stone, "And that makes four!" He then casted a healing spell on Elsa, healing her burises from the crash. Realzing this, Elsa turned to Peter as she cleared her throat, "You can put me down now."

Peter's eyes widened under his mask as he blushed, "Oh, right!"

As Spidey sent Elsa back on her feet, she returned his web-shooter to him, "I believe this is yours."

Peter nodded as he took it back, "Thanks."

They then hurried Buzzy declare, "Well, come on, let's go congratulate our friends."

However, Dizzy frowned, "Hold it, fellas. Now's not the time for it. Look."

Everyone turned to where Baloo had fallen as everyone's eyes widened as he didn't seem to be moving. Mowgli pleaded, "Baloo? Baloo, get up. Oh please, get up."

Just then, Bagheera's group ran out of the jungle when Anna spotted her siblings, "We couldn't find him did you guys have any better..." She then noticed the sad expressions before noticing the fallen bear, "Oh no..."

Rex even removed his helmet in both shock and sadness, as Olaf looked to their fallen friend, "Baloo?"

Bagheera was also saddened by this, he might have thought much of Baloo, but he still one of his friends. He turned to Mowgli before trying to tell the boy, "Mowgli, try to understand."

"Bagheera, what's the matter with him?" Mowgli asked the panther.

Bagheera told him, "You've got to be brave like Baloo was."

"You mean he's..." Mowgli turned to him in horror as sadly nodded, Mowgli looked down shedding a few tears, "Oh, no, Baloo."

As everyone began shedding a few tears even Peter removed his mask and started to comfort Elsa as Kristoff did the same with Anna. She turned to Sora, "Isn't there anything you can do?"

Sora shook his head, as he told her, "He's in God's hands now."

Anna teared up as Bagheera told Mowgli, "Now, now. I know how you feel. But you must remember, Mowgli, greater love hath no one than he who lays down his life for his friend." Unknown to them, Baloo opens his eyes as he was actually still alive as Bagheera continued, "When great deeds are remembered in this jungle one name will stand above all others. Our friend, Baloo the bear."

Baloo teared up, "He's cracking me up..."

Bagheera continued, "The memory of Baloo's sacrifice and bravery will forever be engraved on our saddened hearts."

"Beautiful." Baloo sniffed as the rain stopped and the sun began to shine.

Bagheera added, "This spot where Baloo fell will always be a hallowed place in the jungle, for there lies one of nature's noblest creatures."

"I wish my mother could've heard this." Baloo deeply touched by the panther's words.

Bagheera finished his memorial speech. "It's best we leave now. Come along, everyone."

Everyone frowned as they turned away to most likely finally return Mowgli to the Man-Village. That's when Baloo finally spoke up with a big grin on his face, "Hey, don't stop now, Baggy, you're doing great! There's more, lots more!"

Everyone turned back as their eyes widened with joy that Baloo wasn't actually dead...well almost everyone. Bagheera exclaimed, "Why you, big fraud! You, you four-flusher! I-I'm fed up!"

Olaf chuckled at Bagheera's shock and whispered up at Sora. "I kinda figured he's was not dead due to his chest rising and falling. People don't seem to be on the lookout for those."

Olaf has ways sounding like he's an expert at knowing things. Everyone else ran up to the Bear as Mowgli tackled him to a hug, "BALOO! You're alright!"

Sora sighed in relief, "Man, you gave us a scare!"

"Ha-ha. Who me? Sure I am. Never felt... better." Baloo said in a silly tone. Everyone laughed happily with Baloo, except Bagheera.

"You sure had us all worried," Mowgli said hugging Baloo.

Anna nodded, "Yeah, we assumed the worse!"

"Yeah," Rex nodded, "You had the kids tearing up there!"

Kristoff turned to Rex, "We're you tearing up too?"

"What?!" The Clone Captian looked embarrassed, "No! It was just the rain, you know..."

Peter joked, "Sure, it was..."

Rex gave him a mild glare as Elsa giggled as she turned to the bear, "Yeah. We're so glad you're alright."

"Ahh, I was just takin' five. You know, playing it cool. He-ha, but he was too easy." Baloo said putting Mowgli on his shoulders.

"Good ol' papa bear!" Mowgli exclaimed hugging Baloo again.

Bagheera sighed and shook his head, before turning to Sora, "So, I assumed you managed to get the Stone?"

Sora smiled, as he revealed the Space Stone, "Yep! We only got two Infinity Stones to go!"

Anna pumped a fist, "YES! WE'RE ALMOST THERE!" She then noticed a particular tree, "Hey, that shape on that tree kinda looks like Elsa..."

Elsa blushed in embarrassment before Mowgli stated, "You should have seen it, she came swinging to Spidey's rescue!"

Anna turned to the boy in shock, "Wait, Elsa?"

"Uh..." Elsa tried to change the subject, "Could we please talk about something else?"

"She slammed into a tree," Sora remarked.

"What!?" Anna gasped in worry.

"Sora..." Elsa groaned in annoyance.

"Elsa oh my gosh! Are you hurt?! Should we call a hospital?! Wait there's no hospital in the jungle. Should we call a witch doctor?! And I mean medicine ones! Not actual witches!" Anna panicked for her sister's injuries.

"Anna, calm down, I'm fine. Really." Elsa eased her sister with a reassuring smile.

"Still... She really imprinted herself on that tree when she slammed into it." Sora snickered.

"I did not!" Elsa snapped back at Sora while pouting.

"It was like a Bob Ross painting." Peter snickered with a quip, "Or in this case, George of the Jungle."

"Not you too Peter." Elsa pouted.

"We're just messing with you, Elsa." Peter eased while chuckling.

"Well, I'm not laughing." Elsa retorted with her arms crossed.

Spidey reassured her, "Seriously though, thanks."

Elsa lightly blushed as she tried to play it cooly, "Well, you did save us a few times, so I suppose I owed you a few favors."

"Like swinging to his rescue?" Sora offered, making Elsa blush harder.

Anna then slowly smirked, "You know, when you say it like that it's kinda romantic..."

That time, both Peter and Elsa blushed in embarrassment, as the latter complained, "ANNA!"

The vultures laughed at the happy moment, Dizzy commented, "It's going to be a bit dull without those bunch."

"Yeah," Buzzy agreed, "So what are we gonna do?"

"I don't know... hey, now, don't start that again!" Flaps complained to Buzzy...

---

While everyone was making their way through the jungle. Baloo was busy telling Bagheera about the fight with Shere Khan while Mowgli was piggyback riding on top of the enthusiastic bear.

"Hey Baggy. Too bad you and the others missed all the action. You should've seen how I made a sucker out of old stripes. I mean Sora and his team helped out a little bit, but I went up with a left up in his face boom boom!" Baloo mimicked a boxer, "I was giving him Wam!"

Everyone else just shook their heads in amusement, knowing how it really ended with Baloo struggling with the tiger's tail whole they did all the fighting. But they decide to just let the old bear live in his lovable and witty delusions.

"Though I would say Jungle Boy over there gave the finishing blow," Peter smirked up at Mowgli since it was him that tied the blazing branch to Shere Khan's tail.

Anna smirked to her sister, "I still can't believe you crashed into a tree to save Peter!"

Elsa blushed in embarrassment, "Will you let that go?! I didn't mean for that to happen!" She then turned to Peter, "I still don't know how you do it. You make it look so easy."

"Well, to be fair, I have years of experience," Peter stated, "As well as the proportionate speed, strength and agility of a spider with a Spider-Sense." Elsa frowned in embarrassment as he reassured, "But I had my share of crashing into buildings my first attempts."

Elsa turned to him, "Really?"

Peter nodded, "Yeah, though I didn't have quite the impact like you did."

The elder princess giggled slightly as she played around with her hair, "I guess... I really did leave a mark on that tree."

Mowgli laughed, "You better believe it."

Everyone had a good laugh at that as Baloo stated, "Yes, sir! Nothing or nobody is ever gonna come between us again."

"Aw... Let's hope youthful rebellion and pubescent mood swings don't get in between them." Olaf gushed look at Mowgli and Baloo hug.

"How do you know those words?" Peter gave the snowman a weird look.

"Oh and girls. I forgot about the girls," Olaf chuckled.

"My own home~ My own home~" They heard a girl's voice singing softly in the distance.

Kristoff could see pass the bushes and smirked. "Speaking of which."

Everyone looked over to where Kristoff was looking and saw a small village as a girl walked to the water with a jug over her head as she sang, "My own home~ My own home~"

"Look, what's that?" Mowgli wondered.

Bagheera replied as he gestured to the village, "Oh, it's the Man-Village."

Mowgli shook his head before gestured to the girl, "No, no, I mean that."

"Oh," Anna smiled, "That's a girl."

Kristoff added, "She looks about your age too."

Baloo told him, "Forget about those, they ain't nothing but trouble."

Elsa and Anna glared at the bear as Mowgli told him, "Just a minute. I've never seen one before."

"You've seen three now, so let's go," Baloo replied.

Mowgli moved on ahead, "I'll be right back, I want a better look."

"Mowgli, wait a minute..." Baloo called out.

Rex stopped him as he shook his head with a small smile, "Ah, Baloo. Let the kid have a better look."

Mowgli climbs on a tree branch over the river where the Girl came to water as she sang, "Father's hunting in the forest~ Mother's cooking in the home~ I must go to fetch the water~ 'Til the day that I am grown~ 'Til I'm grown~ 'Til I'm grown~ I must go to fetch the water~ 'Til the day that I have grown~"

As Mowgli watches her, he fell in the water. The girl giggled and Mowgli hid in some bushes as she continued singing, "Then I will have a handsome husband~" Baloo has a funny look that line as everyone else chuckled, "And a daughter of my own... And I'll send her to fetch the water~ I'll be cooking in the home~ Mmm-mmm~ Mmm-mmm~ Then I'll send her to fetch the water~ I'll be cooking in my home~"

She carries the water in a big clay pot on her head and then drops it so it rolled over to Mowgli, "Oh!"

Baloo realized, "She did that on purpose!"

"Obviously." Bagheera smiled. Mowgli went over and grabbed the clay pot, to draw more water for the girl. He offered it to the girl who was a few feet away from the boy, standing at the entrance of the village while she stares at him beautifully. A kind of look that a boy like Mowgli couldn't resist.

The girl hummed her song as she turned and entered the village. Prompting Mowgli to carry the pot as she did over his head. Steady as he went, but then he paused. And looked back at the others. Baloo looked worried that he'll leave him. While Bagheera and the others looked happy for the boy.

"Mowgli. Come back, come back." Baloo whispered, begging him not to go.

"Go on, go on." Bagheera and Anna whispered instead. Encouraging the boy to go after her, in the place where the Man-Cub belongs.

Mowgli looked back and forth. At the girl and his friends not sure what to do next. But the girl looked back at him with a cute expression wondering if he'll come into the village with her. As if she was inviting him in, with his kind. To look at her eyes was enough for the boy, to make his final decision. Mowgli smiled and looked at the others, he shrugged his arms, while almost dropping the pot.

Mowgli knew what he was leaving. What he fought and rebelled so hard to keep. However, now that he knew what the future is in store for him. It didn't matter anymore. He knew he was doing the right thing. As Mowgli finally walked into the village. Baloo sighed, "Well... he's hooked."

"Huh... Maybe we should've told him there would be girls here." Peter remarked once the Man-Cub was out of sight.

Elsa then turned to her sister, "You saw her and planned out all this didn't you."

Anna shrugged, "Well... I figure if it worked for Sora, it'd work for him too."

Sora blushed as Elsa began giggling, "That's right. The whole reason he took so long to come back home because he fell in love with Kairi."

Both his sisters started giggling much to Sora's embarrassment suddenly they heard a clap. Everyone turned to see Aced there as he clapped, "Congratulations, Sora."

"Aced?" Sora inquired.

"You know this one?" Bagheera asked Sora.

"He's the one who told us where to find Mowgli," Elsa explained, "You and the other Foretellers... You've been watching us."

"Yes," Aced nodded, "We were told of your brother's great victory against Master Xehanort. I admit I was skeptical. However, after today, seeing how much you and the others accomplished... you are indeed strong Sora. You've earned my respect."

"Thanks," Sora nodded, "But why though? Why are you watching us?"

Aced frowned as he stated, "I take it Ava told you of our past. Well, helping you... let's just say, we're trying to undo the damage we've done."

"Huh?" Sora tilted his hand as Aced summoned his Keyblade to open another portal.

However, before he left, "Continue to surprise me, Sora. Perhaps we can be allies for what's to come."

He then left the scene, leaving the others in shock. Peter was the first to speak, "Well... like that wasn't suspicious or anything."

Baloo wondered, "What was that all about?"

Everyone wasn't sure what to say to Baloo without disturbing the world order. However, Bagheera simply told him, "It doesn't matter now. Shere Khan's been defeated and Mowgli is safe."

Baloo frowned as Anna comfort the bear, "It was inevitable Baloo. The boy couldn't help himself. It was bound to happen. Mowgli is where he belongs now."

"Yeah, I guess your right," Baloo had to admit before smirking, " But I still think he'd have made one swell bear. Heck, given time, he could take on that Aced guy himself."

"Well... Probably him more than Tarzan." Sora muttered a joke.

"Who?" Baloo asked.

"Nevermind," Sora muttered when all of a sudden he noticed a bright light shining the Man-Village and Sora's Keyblade suddenly flashed into his hand. Sora held on the Keyblade with both hands as he was pretty sure what this meant. At the same time, one of the water jugs shined with light. As the light of the water jug shined, a crown of light appeared under Sora's feet. The wind picked up as he entered a pinky cloudy area just then the light of the water jug shot up revealing a Keyhole in the sky. Sora twirled around his Keyblade before aiming it at the Keyhole. Light swirled around the Keyblade before shooting a beam of light unlocking the Gateway.

Sora turned to the others, "Well, it looks like we need to get going too."

"You too, huh?" Baloo frowned before smiling, "Well, don't suppose you'll ever come back to visit."

"You better believe it," Sora smirked, "But right now, we have other friends counting on us."

"Indeed, I think it's best we don't hold you up." Bagheera nodded, knowing what they were really up to.

Elsa shrugged as she lightly joked, "Until then, I hope Baloo doesn't give you too much trouble."

"Maybe, Mowgli and that girl will join us." Olaf offered, "Now that we don't have to worry about Shere Khan."

Peter muttered, "Maybe she can teach him so common sense by then too."

"Yeah..." Baloo nodded to Olaf, "You could be right."

"Well, come on, Baggy buddy. Let's get back to where we belong. And get with the beat!" Baloo sang as he lifted the panther over his shoulder as they left, "Look for the bare necessities~ The simple bare necessities~"

"Forget about your worries and your strife~" Baghreea actually sang along.

Everyone sang joined in the too, "I mean the bare necessities~ Are Mother Nature's recipes~ That bring the bare necessities of life~"

As everyone watched the bear and panther danced off to the sunset. Everyone smiled before Rex cleared his throat, "Well, then. Then let's pack up and head back to the ship. We can have your birthday cake there and get your clothes washed."

Elsa beamed, "FINALLY! I can't wait to wear actually clothes again!"

Sora turned to his twin sister, "Elsa? If wearing that bikini throughout the jungle bothered you so much why not just make yourself another ice dress?"

The ice princess turned to her twin brother in shock, "Wait, what?!"

Sora pointed out, "Didn't you say you made that ice dress with your powers yourself? You could have done that again. Anytime you wanted." He shrugged, "Heck, you could have done make ice outfits for everyone too."

The realization hit Elsa harder than she hit that tree, as she blushed in embarrassment, as everyone else turned to her in shock. Kristoff asked, "You could've done that this whole time?"

"Uh..." Elsa tried to think of an excuse, "Well, you see... it's... um... I..."

Anna realized, "You were still thinking about the accidental kiss, and crushing on Peter so hard, you forgot didn't you?"

Elsa blushed even harder as she wanted to change the subject... to anything. Or just die on the spot, she didn't care which at the moment. Sora's eyes widened in horror, "Oh no!"

Anna groaned as she turned to Sora, "Now, what?! Did you lose the Stones again!"

"No, it's worse!" Sora stated, "Yesterday was our birthday!"

Anna shook her head not seeing the point, "So..."

He turned to his sisters, "What's to stop Mom and Dad entering my room to wish us a Happy Birthday?!"

Elsa's eyes widened even harder as Anna raised a finger before the realization dawned on her, "Nothing!" After a brief moment of silence, the young princess added, "We're so dead!"

Yesterday on Arendelle, the King and Queen walked up to Sora's room where they learned Elsa and Anna were spending time with him to comfort him in this situation. King Agnarr sighed, "They've been in Sora's room for nearly a week. We haven't heard even a peep from them. Even Anna."

His wife turned to him, "Can you blame him? He just learned that the girl he loves in a deep coma, because of the fact that he was missing and we had just forbidden him to go help her. All to please the council's decision and force him to meet with a princess he doesn't know or love."

"Believe me, I understand that," He nodded, "But..."

"Agnarr," Iduna crossed her arms, "He was willing to die for her several times over to keep her safe from that Xehanort and his other enemies. She means everything to him and we're stopping him from seeing her just to let her know he's okay." She then added, "Listen... I was never born royal. You knew this. Even before you knew I was Northuldra. Yet, you still choose me to be your wife. If it was me in Kairi's place, would that stop you from going to save me?"

He turned to his wife's eyes and saw her point. Agnarr sighed, "Perhaps... You're right."

"You know I'm right." Iduna remarked.

"I was too hard on him. I shouldn't have let the pressures of royal family business get in the way of doing what's right for our son." Agnarr said with regret. "He deserves better than this, after everything he's been through."

He then walked up to Sora's door and knocked on it, "Sora? Elsa? Anna? Could I have a moment to talk?" He didn't hear anything before sighing, "Look, I know it's been a tough week. With the whole... visit... from..."

He turned to his wife, hoping she remembered the name of Sora's best friend, she whispered, "Riku."

"Riku." He turned back to the door, "And learning about that Kairi is in a coma. Not to mention the whole... situation with the council decision and the princesses," His wife cleared her throat as if to tell him to get on with it. He sighed, "Look, the point is... maybe I can work with something with the other kingdoms... to wait as we figure out a way with the trolls to find a way to get to Kairi. Visit her. Maybe get her some help. Let all your friends know you're okay. Then come back with Kairi to prove to the council that she is a real princess and then tell them to screw themselves and apologize to the princesses for wasting their time. Now, could you come out to celebrate your birthdays and see what we can do from there?"

When he heard nothing but the slight movement he added, "There's chocolate cake."

He still didn't get a response, be gave another knock, "Sora? Elsa? Anna?" He tried to open the door but it was locked, "Open the door."

However, when he still didn't get anything in response he turned to his wife, "Something's not right here. Where's the key to this room."

Iduna sighed as she called out, "Gerda?"

---

A few minutes later, they unlocked the door to their room and didn't see any of their children there. All they saw was two spirits currently playing chess. Iduna's eyes widened, "Bruni? Gale?"

Bruni beamed as he ran to the Queen's hands as Agnerr wondered, "Wait, where's our children?"

Gale blew over the Queen's ear as her eyes widened, "Sora went to find a way to run away to find Kairi. Elsa and Anna went with him to help."

Agnerr's eyes widened as he stared at the sign that Anna made, and finished, "And it was Anna that came up with the idea how to keep us away while they're gone!"

She placed Bruni down as she stated, "We need to find them."

"If they found a way to travel to other worlds Grand Pabbie would know," Agnerr stated.

His wife nodded as they made a dash to leave. They lost their son once, they weren't planning on losing him again. Or their daughters as well. Little did they know, Vanitas looked down to his 'parents.' He muttered, "So these are our 'dear' parents. They wanted to see their children so, who am I to ruin a family reunion."

He then turned to the figure behind him, "So, you gonna help me get to them or what?"

The man behind him was silent only summoned his Keybalde in response...

Meanwhile, in the city of Attilan on Earth's moon. Thane had just finished talking to Sora. He had learned they just managed to retrieve the Space Stone, which was good news since that meant they only had two more Infinity Stones to find. Although, they apparently were going to be in trouble with their parents at this point. He gave a soft chuckle, at least their father, wouldn't try to actually murder them. He wished all he had to worry about was getting grounded. As he entered his room, a new voice spoke up, "You know, when I learned that you were the son of Thanos..."

He turned to see a cloaked figure leaning nonchalantly on the wall, "...I thought you'd be taller."

Thane went into a defensive position as he told him, "If you think I'm going to willing to submit to Thanos then you've got anything coming."

The man raised his hands in defense, "Relax, I'm not with Thanos or the Black Order creeps. Seriously those guys have issues."

Thanos eased up a bit, "Then who are you?" He then wondered, "Wait, that coat... are you that man Sora saw in that vision of his. The one who arranged the fight between him and Xehanort to start another Keyblade War."

"Guilty!" The Master of Masters grinned under his hood, "Though trust me. Nothing against the kid. It was for the best intentions."

Thane raised an eyebrow, "How could restarting a war that has doomed the world in the past now be for the best of intentions?"

The Master of Masters gave a small chuckle, "More than you realize." He then walked to a nearby window as he asked Thane, "Did you know the worlds were once one world?"

"I'm aware of the story of the first Keyblade War," Thane stated, "The battle between light and dark."

He gestured to him, "Smart boy." He then turned added, "Did you know the 'second' Keyblade War Sora was in... wasn't actually the second?"

Thane's eyes widened at that, as the Master nodded, "It's true. I myself have even fought in some of them. Both trying to prevent and recreate. Heck, it's how I even met your father."

Thane asked, "You knew him?"

"Know him," He corrected, "We still talk from time to time. He hates me you know. Probably as much as he hates you. We share that in common. And before you ask, no it's not because we're related. From from it actually. Truth be told he was one of my darknesses who tried to take destroying the universe a bit too far. So, I had to of course stop him." He then turned to him, "Do you have any idea how embarrassing that was?"

Thane stared at him oddly before he continued, "Now where was I? Ah, yes! The Keyblade Wars. Catchy name. And yet... whether I infer or not, the Keyblade War is inevitable. It will always happens no matter what you do. It's an endless cycle really."

"Then why do you always reset it?" Thane wondered, "Why not try to end it?"

"What do you think I've been doing?" The Master of Masters asked confusing Thane, "I know it seems confusing I'm trying to start a war to end all wars. However, I'm trying to recreate the broken world but this time no more greed, envy, hungry, etc. To put it simplest terms no more darkness. The problem is the people. They always whine and complain and argue with each other but my final plan... the final Keyblade War... will fix all of that. However, there's one key player that I need."

Thane wondered, "And that player is?"

The Master of Master pointed to him, "You, my friend." This shocked the Inhuman, as he continued, "That's right. You, Thane, Son of Thanos, the Mad Titan will help me create the new world... and you wanna know the best part." He then leaned in to whisper, "You'll never have to worry about your father ever again."

Thane's eyes widened, which sounded too good to be true. However, he wondered, "And my friends?"

"Will be restored in the new world," He reassured him, "Trust me, you don't know how many times I've seen Beast be free from the curse, or Aladdin wishing the Genie to be free. Sora and the others may not like the idea of losing the universe to save the world but they'll grow into it. And thank you for it."

Thane then wondered, "Who are you? What's your real name?"

"Ah, I've heard that question a allot," The Master of Master admitted before turning to him, "Well, seeing how we will be working together in the long run I see no harm in it. My name is XXXXX."

However, the room went silent as Thane's eyes widened in shock as the Master shrugged, "Like I once told Xehanort, I'm a lost master."

Thane repeated, "Lost Master?"

He turned to leave as he stated, "Oh, and uh... don't tell anyone about this conversation." He left Thane alone with his thoughts, as he added, "May your heart be your guiding key."

Yesterday, Riku had returned to Radiant Garden where the others were waiting for him. Goofy was the first one to speak, "So... how is Sora?"

Riku shook his head as he reassured him, "He's fine... it's just... what he told me is a lot to take in."

"Did he say where he was now?" Donald wondered, "What about those Infinity Stones he was talking about?"

"Well," Riku wondered where to begin, "Remember that Black Box both Maleficent and Xehanort were after... well it turns out... Sora along with countless other worlds... are trapped inside the box."

Everyone stood there in shock as Riku explained to the others what Sora had explained to him. When he finished, Ienizo hummed and nodded, "Yes, that would explain why the GummiPhones' signal couldn't reach him. The box was interfering with the signal."

Even gasped in shock, "A box that contains worlds. Worlds that were never restored since the last Keyblade War. Now, that sounds like the box Xehanort would have been after."

"Gosh!" Mickey gasped, "And if that's true... then the worlds out here... won't be fully stable until those worlds are free. If they're not freed soon..."

"Will mean the end to all the worlds," Riku finished, "Even after everything we've done to stop Xehanort and his puppet master."

Ventus's eyes narrowed with determination, "Then we've got to find it."

Leon pointed out, "But we still don't know where it is. Even if we did, without the X-blade or the Infinity Stones. We wouldn't be able to get them out of there."

"Well, the good news, Sora already has three of the Infinity Stones last we checked," Terra pointed out, "Which means he's already halfway done."

"And he's done a good job keeping them out of Thanos's hands," Aqua commented, "We should trust him to secure the rest. All we need to do is find the box and make sure Sora gets out along with the trapped worlds."

"But where to even begin to look?" Mickey wondered, "It could be anywhere and we don't have the time to look on every single world of one black box."

"We don't have to." Terra stated, getting everyone's attention, "If this puppet master is like Xehanort... then there's only one place he could start another Keyblade War." Everyone's eyes widened as they knew what this meant as Terra spoke their thoughts out loud, "We need to go to the Keyblade Graveyard."

Unaware to them, Kairi slept soundly as she slowly smiled as she watched the man that she loves heading off to the next world for the remaining Infinity Stones...

And that will conclude today's chapter! In case your all wondering we will find out who the Master's true identity is in this story! Just not now obviously. I can't wait to get to that point. But we did get more of that good old confusion KH lore. Gotta love it. Hope you like my take on the Master's plan. I'm kinda curious about how close it is to the cannon's version. Time will tell I guess. Bet it won't have anything to do with the Infinity Stones. Anyways, we got to see Santa in this chapter! And some more SnowElsa. Also Red vs Blue reference with monkey forms of Simmions and Grif. For the record, I don't own them either. They belong to Screwattack... and Halo I guess? Anyways, I hope you enjoyed their appearance as well. Anyways, had a lot of fun with this chapter and now it's time to go to the preview. Our heroes have tracked down the Soul Stone to this world... the problem is though... they're tiny! And lost in a swamp area much to Elsa's disappointment and Olaf's confusion. At least they're all probably dressed this time and I'm sure Olaf will understand this when he's older. ;D So, they meet two humans that were turned into frogs, an alligator who wants to play with the big boys, and a firefly who just wants love. However, in order to restore them to their proper size and turn their human friends back to themselves, they have to defeat the Shadow Man. They'll need help from Mama Odie's help to break the spell and to defeat the Shadow Man they need the help from Sora's old ally who boastfully claims, "You ain't never had a friend like me."
