I don't own Kingdom Hearts or Spider-Man. They belong to Square Enix, Disney, Marvel, and Sony. Okay, incase your wondering why this chapter took so long was because the fight scenes took forever to write but totally worth it. Trust me, all the boss fight scenes I wrote in this chapter are awesome! Thanks again to SORARULES23 for helping me out especially with the last boss fight which I think you can safely assume who it is.
And of course there's a lot of KH lore because what's a Kingdom Hearts story without it? XD
Now then before we dig into the chapter let's reply to some reviews...
SORARULES23: Yeah, I remember you telling me that. Enjoy your new PS5! :) And yes, and the fact that that allies with Jafar the whole time made it more sweet exposing him. Eh, I'm sure Groot will get over the fact I didn't like the movie. He's a nice guy!
jeonbh94: I already PM'd my response to your review of how you most definitely haven't been reading the story at this point so if your not into this story, that's fine. You don't have to pretend to like it but you don't need write a review that makes absolutely zero sense.
ajjr12: Thank you! But I'm still not hoping that Rayna makes it into Kingdom Hearts series. Still whatever happens happens and I'll still play it though it will not be favorite world.
Dexter: Thank you! And no problem! I just wanted to clarify that fact to you so no one over thinks things. Hope you enjoy this chapter!
NaruSaku fan in Kentucky: Glad you like that chapter and anyone's who seen Frozen saw that coming! :D Except Jafar's grand appearance. I don't blame you. Jonathan Freeman did such a good job. So good, he came back for the Broadway musical! Sadly that won't be Thane's reasoning especially since the Master of Masters recruited him. You'll find out in this chapter. And sure, you can make tv tropes of that fanfic! :D Sadly, no portal moment. Enjoy the chapter!
Tiger2014: Thank you! And all your questions will answered in this chapter only for new ones to arise! Lol!
Harold Godwinson: Yep! And he's allies with another cowardly snake! Yeah, I know but just to warn you this chapter won't end any better... we'll sort of... ;D
lyokoMARVELanime: Glad you enjoyed the surprise appearances! And yes, Xehanort's punishment is based on Christmas Carol. Let's face it, even if Xehanort's sorry for what he did, he still had a lot to make up for and wouldn't go straight for heaven like a saint. At least not according to my religion. He would need to spend some time in purgatory first. I thought it be a cool concept for this chapter which I wish the KH canon would explore but it is what it is. And I admit I did want Jafar to show up at some point in the series. And not just because of his song but I needed a reason why Hans had a Keyblade so I thought of a certain Aladdin villain and thought it was perfect! Glad you agreed with that! :D And you'll just have to read the chapter to see if the Master allows Sora to stop Thanos or what comes next...
Monkey D. Conan: Yes, sadly he didn't. Yeah, Xehanort's time to shine as the villain ended in KH3 or more recently KH Melody of Memories but I'll probably do a few more fanfics with him as the main villain. Just not this one. Glad you like Jafar's appearance! :) As for your questions, well you'll just have to read the chapter and find out...
Guest: No, this is a one and done fanfic. Although there will be a secret boss chapter after the epilogue chapter.
Joel Connell: Glad you thought so! And to answer your question... maybe... :)
What If Universe: Glad you that that was funny! And hey, maybe that will happen. Sure, Spider-Man 3 wasn't the greatest Spider-Man movie ever made. It still had some moments like that scene.
Deadpool Fan: Glad you like it so far! I can tell you're a Deadpool fan and I might have him as a cameo as A Spider's Frozen Adventure II but not for that scene. You'll just to wait and see where it goes.
And with that out of the way, we can start the next part of this epic finale! Enjoy!
Chapter 11: The Mad Titan
"Mickey! MICKEY!" Riku shouted out through the GummiPhone, "C'mon! Say something!"
"I... don't understand..." The star admitted as she turned to Donald, Goofy, and the Fairy Godmother for an explanation, "Did something go wrong? Was he able to talk to Sora?"
"Well..." Goofy removed his hat to scratch his head, "From what I understand, was that in order to get out, Sora needs these things called Infinity Stones. However, Maleficent was also after the Stones but Sora was always able to keep them out of her reach. But something must have gone wrong..."
"Sora might not be the smartest of us but he is loyal," Donald agreed with Goofy, "He'd never let Maleficent have those Stones, something must have gone wrong and now all of our friends could be in trouble."
"Oh!" The star gasped, "I'm so sorry..."
The Fairy Godmother told the star, "It's quite alright, my dear. It's not your fault."
Everyone turned back to Riku, who looked like he was trying to get in contact with someone else, "C'mon! Pick up already! Terra! Ven! Aqua! Axel! Sïax! Xion! Roxas! Naminè!"
After a few more times of trying, he sighed in defeat, "This is bad."
"What happened?" Goofy asked, "How did Sora lose the Stones?"
"It's that Hans guy!" Riku slammed his fist on the ground, "He was working with Jafar and Maleficent!"
Donald and Goofy gasped in horror, "JAFAR?!"
Even the Fairy Godmother eyes widened, "Oh, dear that's not good..."
Riku continued, "And Thane... he gave them to Stones to protect Sora and the others..."
"So... did we... just lose?" Donald asked.
"You haven't," Xehanort told them gazing at the stars around them. Everyone turned to him, "Not yet. If you had, a lot more stars would have shown up her by now. Which means Thanos hasn't gotten the Stones from Maleficent just yet. There is still a chance to stop him."
"I can't believe I'm saying this," Riku picked himself , "But Xehanort is right. If we can get the Stones from Maleficent before she gives them to Thanos, we can keep them safe. Maybe even use them to bring Sora back."
Goofy nodded, "Then we haven't a moment to lose!"
Donald nodded in agreement, "Yeah!"
The three turned to face the Fairy Godmother, as Riku told her, "Thanks for everything... but we need to get back to the Keyblade Graveyard."
The cloaked woman nodded, "Yes, if things are as bad as we've heard, you need to head back as quickly as possible. I take you back to Master Yen Sid's tower. From there use the GummiShip to get back to the Keyblade Graveyard."
The three nodded in agreement before Riku turned back to the star that helped them, "We'll help you when everything is said and done."
The Star seemed to understand as she wished them, "Good luck."
With that, the Fairy Godmother took them back to their world leaving Xehanort and the stars to themselves. The former whispered, "May your hearts be your guiding key."
Meanwhile, back in the world of Quadratum, the Foretellers witnessed the events that have take place. Gula stated, "That's not good."
"They were so close," Invi frowned, "How could this have happened? They could've stopped the Prince of the Southern Isles..."
"THANE BETRAYED THEM," Aced growled, "That's what happened! They trusted him and he gave the enemy the Stones!"
"Calm down, Aced," Ira told him, "He only did it to save them."
Aced turned to the Foreteller Leader, "You taking the fact that he may have just doomed the entire universe! If I didn't know any better..."
"Hey! Easy," Luxu smirked, "Gee! Was it really like this when I was away doing my role. No wonder war broke out way back when."
"He's right," Gula nodded, "We should meet up with Sora. May together we can get the Stones together..."
"Oh, I wouldn't worry to much about it," A familiar voice spoke up as everyone turned in shock to see the Master of Masters approach them, "It's all going according to plan."
All the Foretellers except Luxu were in complete shocked. The Master of Masters raised an eyebrow under his hood, "What? Do I have stain on my coat or something? Cause I swear, I just washed mine!"
Aced was the first to run over to him and pulled him into a hug, "Master! You're here! You're alright!"
"Wow!" Master of Masters was a little shocked by the hug as she patted his pupil, "Can't remember when I got one of these from you, tough guy. Then again it's been... what day is it again?"
Luxu simply answered, "Wednesday."
"Yeah," The Master suddenly remembered, "About a couple of centuries give or take. Considering most of you are not decaying in some unmarked grave means that Luxu was able to summon to this time a okay."
The other joined in the hug. Ira told him, "Master, it is good to see you." They then realized him from the hug, as Ira couldn't help but asked, "But what did you mean by it's all going according to plan?"
Gula raised an eyebrow, "Wait, did you want Thanos to have the Stones?"
"Nope!" He shook his head, "That was a mistake I'm never letting happen again. No, I made sure the Stones were in the hands were it could to the most good."
Invi looked to him confused, "Do the most good?"
"Let me explained," The Master of Masters explained, "The reason why you are all here is that you all have a special role. Thanks the the Keyblade War you all had when I've been gone, plus the Black Order wiping out many Keyblade Wielders. Our numbers has died down these years leaving people like Sora to pick up where we left off."
"So," Gula thought, "Do you want us to train the next generation of Keyblade Wielders? Like we did so long ago?"
"Yes but not yet," The Master nodded, "The Universe is very different compared to back then. Words are divided and the Heartless are amuck. In order to make a new generation, when need to destroy the darkness entirely. Not a trace left so everyone can live in peace. To do that, we need to make things where back in our time. The Age of Fairy Tales."
"And how do we do that?" Invi wondered, "With the Stones?"
The Master nodded, "Bingo."
"But we don't have them," Ira frowned, "Maleficent does. Thane hand them over to her and surrendered himself in order to protect Sora and his friends."
"Relax, you've all known me for centuries now," The Master of Masters reminded the group, "I won't even let them out if I didn't have a plan. Like I told you, the Stones are already in the hands of their new master?"
"Okay," Ira nodded, still not fully understanding what he was getting at but trusted him all the same before wondering, "But what about Sora and the others. They're still trapped in here."
"Don't worry about, Sora," The Master told the leader of the Foretellers, "I've made plans to ensue he'd survive all of this. He'll have his role in the new world order."
Invi blinked in concern, "Survive?"
"You know the old saying," Luxu fully understood what the Master was saying, "Can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs."
"That's right," The Master nodded in agreement, "What will happen today won't be pretty but it will ensure the a Keyblade War or anything involving darkness itself will ever happen again."
Meanwhile, everyone was currently recovering from the loss of the Infinity Stones. Elsa was currently undoing the damage Jafar had done to Marshmallow. After a final wave of her hands the ice magic restored the snow monster, she asked her bodyguard, "Feel better?"
Marshmallow moved his arms around before turning back to the future Snow Queen and nodded. Olaf walked up to the snow monster for a hug, "Brother! I am so glad you're okay!"
Elsa sighed as she turned to her sister, "Wish I could say that for everyone."
Kristoff was comforting Anna as she was recovering from a broken heart. Anna shed a few tears, "I thought he loved me."
"I'm sorry, Anna," Kristoff nodded doing his best to comfort the broken-hearted Princess, "I truly am."
Kristoff would be lying if he said he didn't want to beat of the certain Prince of the Southern Isles for this. Though since he and the other villains working with Thanos were long gone, this was all he could do. Elsa walked up to her sister full of sympathy, "Anna..."
Anna looked up to her sister, "I should have listened to you. All of you. You all warned me not to trust him but I didn't listen. I just wanted what Sora had with Kairi, and what you have with Spidey. And now, I might have ruined the chance for Sora ever seeing his true love again."
Everyone turned to Sora who was currently holding Kairi's lucky charm. The one she gave him before he went to face Ansem, Xehanort's Heartless, and once again before leaving to earn his Mark of Mastery before he faced off against Xehanort himself. Elsa sighed as she turned to her sister, "It's not your fault, Anna. There were a lot of unknown factors that lead to this moment. Like Hans somehow getting his hands on Jafar's lamp. And Thane surrendering the Stones and himself to Maleficent."
Anna frowned, "Which she's no doubt is on her way to deliver the Stones to Thanos. And we have no way to go after her to stop them. That's not even mentioning our parents are being held hostage."
"There is that," Elsa frowned, "Still... all the same, no one is blaming you."
Rex nodded as he looked to the ground with his helmet off, "Yeah, we still brought Hans along. Despite full well knowing we couldn't trust him. Now, half of all life is doomed because of it."
"That's not even mentioning the universe is doomed if the worlds in here aren't released." Ephemer pointed out.
Rex nodded, "That too."
"What about the Infinity Armor?" Sora wondered, "Did anyone find it?"
"Yeah," Spider-Man nodded as he stood next to Ava looked down at the armor, "But one of the Gandulets are missing."
Ava sighed, "That Prince of yours must have swiped it when I was showing you the Book of Prophecies."
Anna groaned before turning to Elrane and Lauriam before speaking up, "Listen... I want to apologize to the both of you. I misjudged you because you were members of the Organization that define you when you had little control over your actions. I'm sorry."
The two seemed to be a little in shock but smiled all the same. Lauriam stated, "To be fair, we did do a lot of terrible things as Nobodies. Your judgment was not completely unjustified."
"Yeah," Elrena nodded in agreement, "We were real jerks. Let's just call it even between us."
Anna gave them a sad smile, "That's fair. At least we'll have that off our consciences."
Sora's eyes narrowed with determination, "It's not over yet."
Everyone turned to him in shock as he put away the charm as he turned to face them, "We need to find another way out of here! Get out there and stop them from getting the Stones to Thanos!"
Everyone blinked in shock, Ava stated, "Sora... I impressed you still have your optimism but... with the Stones or the X-blade there is no way out of here."
That's when Lauriam spoke up, "That's not entirely true... there may be one other way out of here."
Everyone turned to him in shock, as Spider-Man asked, "Where?"
Lauriam told everyone, "Follow me."
He then led the group back to the elevator and pushed a button to the basement. Everyone waited eagerly as they waited to reach the bottom floor. That's when Skuld gasped, "Wait, you don't think you mean what I think you mean?"
"Unfortunately," Lauriam nodded, "But with what's at stake we might not have another option."
Elsa wondered, "What are you talking about?"
Ephemer turned to the eldest sibling, "You'll see."
Once they reached the bottom floor, they spotted a massive supercomputer connected to seven pods. Ava couldn't help but wonder, "What is this?"
"As may of know, I had my own run-in with Maleficent." Lauriam reminded the group, "Before I learned of my sister's death, I followed that witch here, she was trying to return to her own time with this device. And considering she had constant run-ins with Sora, Donald, and Goofy..."
Spider-Man's eyes widened, "It must have worked."
"It's also the reason why you saw myself and Elrena, or at the very least our Nobodies in the present," Lauriam continued, "As well as Ventus and his darkness. Even Skuld was outside for a few months before returning here."
Skuld smiled and nodded, "It could be why Master Ava and the other lost masters are here now too!"
"So... we can use it to get out of the box and stop Hans!" Anna beamed before quickly adding, "And all the other jerks too."
Sounded like Anna wanted some payback, although Elsa wasn't completely convinced. It sounded too good to be true, "Okay, I don't want to be that princess but what's the catch?"
Elrena frowned, "Here's the thing... we're not exactly sure how it works and even if we did there's a chance you might end up losing your memory or worse... your heart. Hence the reason why Lauriam, Demyx, Luxord, and myself were Nobodies and members of the Organization."
Ephemer added, "Plus there's a reason why we exited so long ago but we don't look a day older since the moment it happened. We were all put in there even Brain and myself. Brain ended up a century before everyone else and while I still had my heart and memories... I was still in here along with countless other Keyblade Wielders."
Spidey was dumbfounded, "So our options is stay here and let bad guys destroy the universe or use this thing hope it gets to where and when we're supposed to go... along with remembering why we're there and why we should care. That's not exactly a better option."
"Still," Ava spoke up, "If we figure out how this machine works we could figure out how to get outside safely to stop Thanos."
"Great," Rex wondered, "Any ideas how to work this thing?"
Ava shook her head, "This is the first time I even learned this thing existed."
Elsa turned to Peter, "You're smart. Can't you find a way to work this thing?"
"Sure," Peter nodded, "If I completed my college education when I haven't even finished the senior year of high school yet."
Everyone groaned in annoyance, as Anna complained, "We really could use another wild card or something."
Sora's eyes light up, "Maybe we do!"
Sora dug through his pockets as Elsa turned to him with concern, "Sora?"
Just then, Sora pulled out a card, "Yes! I still have it!"
"A card?" Rex asked.
Sora smiled, "Yeah, a wild card."
During the Keyblade War, before Sora and Mickey had defeated both Marluxia and Larxene, the latter was trapped by the Organization's member's, Luxord's, magic trick cards. He played one last 'game' with Sora. He had to find him among the cards he sent out and strike him down.
Thankfully, Sora was no stranger to his 'games.' He track Luxord down while avoiding his teammates attacks and defeat the gambler. Luxord stumbled before falling to his knee. He then turned to Sora, "You were born for these sort of games."
He then passed a card to Sora. The Keyblade's Chosen turned to the card, half excepting it to be the card King Mickey was trapped it. Except it wasn't it, it was a different card entirely, "What's this?"
"A wild card," Luxord answered, "You've earned it. Hang on to it. Could turn the tables."
Sora accepted the card before smiling, "Play ya again someday, when we're just guys."
Luxord gave a light chuckle before smiling back, "I should like that very much, Sora."
With that, Luxord faded away and that card that trapped the king released him. Mickey smiled in appreciation to Sora, "Thanks."
Sora nodded before they focused on the battle at hand...
In the present, Lauriam observed the card, "Ah, Luxord's wild cards."
The card hand a picture of Sora as Anna couldn't help but wonder, "So, what does it do?"
"Maybe it'll help us work the machine," Spider-Man shrugged, "Or even better, get us all outside to stop Thanos."
"Well, it's the only thing we have," Cloud stated before nodding to Sora, "Use it."
Sora lifted up the card and with a flash of light, the card vanished. Everyone waited for a minute, Anna looked around, "So, what happened?"
"Nothing seems to have changed," Elsa muttered, "Did something go wrong?"
Sora sighed, nothing had changed their situation. Just then, they heard something coming their way, "Bark! Bark!"
Sora looked up to see a familiar dog running up to him before panting and waging his tail. Sora gasped, "Pluto?"
Anna giggled as she went to greet the dog, "How did you get in here, boy?!"
Rex turned to Sora, "You know this dog?"
"Yeah," Sora answered as Anna petted the dog, "He's King Mickey's dog. But he's supposed to be in Disney Castle."
"So..." Elsa blinked, "How did he get here?"
Sora knelt to Pluto, "Hey, do you know a way back home boy?"
Pluto turned around before running around the corner before turning back to them barking at them. He wanted them to follow him. Everyone quickly followed the dog to a strange vehicle none of them have ever seen before. Along with a duck in some fashionable clothes complaining in a Scottish accent, "Professor! When I said I wanted my Bistro to be served in another dimension, I didn't mean in the middle of no where! I didn't pay you all that money just for you machine to flop out on us!"
Sora gasped in excitement, "Uncle Scrooge!"
"Not now, Sora! Can't you see I'm in the middle of something," Scrooge told him not really paying attention before complaining, "And another thing...!" He froze when he realized he just spoke to, "Sora?!"
Scrooge took off his glasses briefly and wiped them down to see if he was seeing who he thought he saw before placing them back before smile, "Well, bless my bagpipes! Sora! There you are!"
"Uncle? Is Sora part duck?" Olaf asked with a shocked expression.
Elsa turned to Sora, "Sora? You know this man... er... Duck?"
"Yeah, he's Scrooge McDuck." Sora nodded, "He's Donald's Uncle and the owner of the Bistro I've told you about."
"That's right," Scrooge smiled as he approached Sora with his cane in his hand, "And thanks to Sora, Goofy, and my nephew business has been booming! In fact so much so, I returned to Disney Castle to help spread my business across other dimensions." He then removed his hat before scratching his head, "Though to be quite honest, I didn't expect to see you here."
He then laughed it off, "Not that I'm complaining. Everyone's been looking for ya and here you are!"
He then placed his hat back on before turning back to the vehicle, "Professor. I take back everything I said about you and your beautiful invention! You were both worth every mummy."
Just then, someone chuckled with a German accent, "Of course! My GummiDemiShip was made perfectly to mine design but... uh... what change your attitude."
Just then, another duck appeared behind the ship but unlike Scrooge, he was wearing a lab coat before turning to see Sora and the others, "Well, I'll be! You must be Sora!"
"Sora," Scrooge introduced, "I know you never met but meet the genius behind the Gummiship... Professor Ludwig Von Drake."
Ludwig ran up to Sora and shook his hand, "Ah, it's so glad to finally meet you face to face. Herd you, Donald, and Goofy put my creation to good use. Worked a whole lot better than the transit system prototype a few years back but not to worry the third prototype shows promising results."
Sora then recalled when he first met Scrooge on Radiant Garden, known to him as Hollow Baston at the time, Donald and Goofy mentioned he was planning on working on a world transit system before selling Sea-Salt Ice Cream then the whole Bistro. Sora couldn't help but smile though, "Nice to meet you but... no offense, I always thought that Chip and Dale invented the GummiShip."
"None taken," Lugwig reassured him, "Truth be told, while they did assist in all things GummiProducts, including the GummiPhone, which made them both great engineers, the genius and designs were all mine."
Scrooge McDuck then turned to the Cloud, "Cloud, a pleasure as always." Cloud nodded before the rich duck turned to the others, "I don't believe I met the rest of you."
"Oh, I'm Elsa," The future Queen introduced herself before gesturing to her sister, "And this is Anna. We're Sora's sisters."
"Name's Rex," The Clone Captain introduced himself, "Captain."
"I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs!" Olaf introduced himself before gesturing to Marshmallow, "And this is Marshmallow."
"I'm Kristoff," The iceman introduced himself before gesturing to his reindeer, "And this is Sven."
"I'm Ephemer," The Keyblade Wielder introduced himself before gesturing to the other bearers of the Keyblade, "And this is Master Ava, Skuld, Lauriam, and Elrena."
Spider-Man then introduced himself, "And I'm your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man."
"Nice to meet you," Scrooge smiled, "Though I was unaware Sora even had siblings."
Sora smiled sheepishly, "It's a long story." He then got serious, "Hey, is it okay if we get a ride back home. It's kind of an emergency."
"Yeah," Anna nodded, "Maleficent has the Infinity Stones and she's going give to Thanos so he can wipe half of all life."
Scrooge's eyes widened in horror, "Goodness me! That's terrible!" He then turned to Lugwig, "Change of plans, Professor! Customers can wait! We need to get back home! Lives are at stake!"
Lugwig smiled sheepishly, "Well... I would but it would appear I forgot to invent the reverse switch! If we're going back home we'd have to go the long way around."
Elsa looked to the Professor with concern, "How long will that take?"
"A half an hour..."
"Oh," Anna smiled, "That's not so bad."
"...to a million years." Lugwig finished with a frown as everyone groaned with annoyance, "I'm sorry, but there are infinite dimensions out there besides our own! If we're going to get back, I need install on a reverse switch or hook up the GummiDemiShip to something connecting to our home dimension."
Ephemer then gestured to the machine, "Well, what about this thing. We were able to get some of us over there from time to time."
"Really," Lugwig ran over to observe the machine and the supercomputer, "In that case, I just need to turn on the supercomputer and we can leave within half an hour!"
Everyone cheered. The Professor quickly started up the computer before something popped up, "Oh! We still need the password."
Everyone began to think of what it could be. Ava suggested, "Well, he calls himself the Master of Masters. Maybe he based it off the first Keyblade. The X-blade."
Lugwig typed it in, but when he hit enter, the computer stated that the password was incorrect. Elrena frowned, "Guess that wasn't it."
Elsa offered, "What about it's counterpart? Kingdom Hearts?"
The Professor typed in getting the same result. Sora then suggested, "What about the last seven Princess of Hearts? Like Ansem's computer? Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, Alice, Jasmine, Belle, and Kairi."
Lugwig typed it in only get the same results, Anna beamed, "Oh! What about the current ones?! The New Seven Hearts! Rapunzel, Moana, Elsa, Anna, Crystal, Tiana, and Kairi?"
When Lugwig typed it again before hitting enter getting the same result. Lugwig sighed, "Good try. But it looks like we have one more try before we're locked out of the system."
Everyone then began to think about possible passwords. Ava offered, "Maybe the password is something related to me and my friends or the new Union Leaders?"
Olaf gasped, "Maybe the password is Password?!"
Sora offered, "Maybe something related to the Stones?"
Elsa offered, "Or the Black Box we're in?"
Everyone was offering similar suggestions before Spidey sighed, "Wish we could just say 'Open Sesame' or 'Grant us access' or..."
Just then, the computer seemed to acknowledge Spider-Man's voice as it replied, "Request knowledged. Access... granted."
Everyone stared in disbelief as the computer opened up to them. Spidey spoke on everyone's behalf, "Okay... that was weird."
"But convenient!" Sora smiled, "We can now get out of the box to stop Maleficent!"
"Slow down," Rex told him, "There's a good chance by the time we get there, Thanos could already have the Stones. We need a plan."
"Hey, Professor?" Elsa asked turning to the duck with the lab coat, "Is there any chance you can look up to see if the Master had any protection in case the Stones were used against him."
"Only one way to find out," Lugwig stated as he went through the files before he beamed, "Eureka! It would appear that while the Stones are indeed powerful, there is a means of protection from them!"
Sora turned to him, "What is it?"
The Professor gestured to the screen, "Iridium!"
Spider-Man recognized, "Wait, Princes Jerkface 'stopped' a crime involving the Shocker and Sandman. They were trying to steal Iridium!"
"Hans must have been trying to have a fail-safe in case we used the Stones against him." Elsa realized, "Guess he never had a chance to use it."
"But we do," Rex commented, "Can it be made into armor?"
"It looks like it already has," Drake stated as he pushed a few keys as he beamed, "Ooooh! And they're powered by ISO-8!"
Sora blinked, "ISO-8? What's that?"
"Hey, I know what that is!" Spider-Man realized, "My world discovered years ago. Short version, it can multiply someone's powers."
"Seriously," Anna blinked, "Can it make a regular person like me stronger too?"
Spider-Man nodded, "Yeah."
Rex smirked, "Just what we need to deal with those Stones."
Sora smiled, "In that case, hook us up, Professor!"
Lugwig typed on some buttons on the keyboard before a slot opened up as it revealed tiny disks. Everyone turned to them, as Anna looked confused, "So... this is the Infinity Stone proof armor? I kinda expected a bit more."
"Yeah," Elsa agreed, "It doesn't like any armor, I have ever seen."
Spider-Man took one as he explained, "Actually, these were made convenient size to adapt to the wearer. Allow me to demonstrate."
Spider-Man then placed the disk on his shoulder as the armor spread through his costume. Armor covered the web-swinging superhero only the parts that didn't appear in silver were at the joints as they were glowing with purple. The spider emblem on the front and black glow with the same color as did the lenses on his mask. Everyone stared in awe, Elsa smiled, "Okay... now that's armor!"
Spider-Man removed his mask, "Okay, now you guys give it a try!"
Sora was next as he placed the disk on his own shoulder as it armor that was similar to Ventus's but he glowed with the power of the ISO-8. Anna beamed, "My turn!"
The youngest daughter took a disk and placed it on her shoulder as armor started forming around her. Replacing her dress with armored pants. A visor appeared on Anna's head as holographic images appeared before he pointing out weak points on the others. Even her blaster appeared to be improved. Anna beamed, "So cool!"
Elsa took a disk and placed it on herself as armor like Anna's appeared around her, only hers was gloveless and came with a cape. Elsa felt her ice powers had increased tenfold and they weren't weak even before then. It was a little scary actually. Spider-Man placed a comforting shoulder on her should making her smile a little.
Kristoff picked up his disk as Anna turned to him with concern, "Hey, listen... you don't have to come along with us. This is a little more than we first asked you to do."
"Yeah," Sora nodded, "No one would blame you if you wanted to go home. We could pay you and have someone drop you off at Arendelle."
"No, I'm sticking around," Kristoff stated, "Someone needs to make sure everyone gets home safe and sound. And there's no point in going home if we don't get those Stones back."
Sven nudged him with a smile. As Kristoff nodded as he placed the disk on himself before an armor similar to what the Arendellian Soldiers wore but powered with the ISO-8. Like Anna, he was given a visor and his blaster was also improved. He then gave a disk to seven which armored up the reindeer. Kristoff then loaded his weapon, "Let's to war to save the universe."
Rex took a disk and it upgraded his own armor and weapons, it even included a jet pack. He observed himself, "Not really my color but I do like the improvements. I feel I could take on the entire army of clankers and come out on top."
Olaf beamed, "Marshmallow, and I want to play dress-up too!"
He took two disks as he gave on to Marshmallow. The latter was given some heavy-duty armor while the former was simply given chest armor and a visor like Anna, Kristoff, and Elsa. Olaf beamed, "Wow! This is awesome!"
Sora took a few more disks, "These might come in handy to help out Riku and the others."
"Hold on," Lugwig warned the group, "While the Iridium does possess great defense against the Infinity Stones and the ISO-8 possess great powers! They still have their limits! I suggest waiting in case someone got their hands on all six Stones to use against you."
Everyone removed their armor as Sora nodded, "Good idea. We could catch Thanos off guard by doing it too."
Spider-Man then wondered, "What if Thanos does snap his fingers? He'll still wipe out half the universe..."
Lugwig reassured the group, "Don't worry. With the information from this computer, I can create a shield to protect the worlds... while it might not hold forever given the time we have... it'll hold up long enough for you to defeat this Thanos or my name isn't Professor Lugwig Von Drake!" Which he causally smiled, "Which it is."
Rex nodded, "Good, let's get that ship of yours hooked up."
"Hold on," Ava cautioned them, "Remember what the Book of Prophecies said. 'On that fated land, a great war shall transpire. Darkness will prevail and the light expire.' If you go, there's a high chance you might not win."
Elsa frowned, "I hate to say it but she's right. With Sora's visions through the Time Stone and the Book of Prophecies... things don't look that great for us."
"Says who?" Spider-Man stated as everyone turned to the web-swinging superhero, "Look the Time Stone doesn't show the definitive future, just a possible one. We still have free will. I bet that's what Xehanort believed during the last Keyblade War but guess what? Sora changed that fate and defeated Xehanort. It was said that Anakin Skywalker would be the greatest threat to his galaxy, but what happened? Sora told him he had a chance to work with his friends and change his fate. Saving both the Jedi Order and the Republic. Heck, there's been tons of alternative futures where we failed where I'm from but the Avengers and the other heroes always rose up to stop it. We can do this. We can change the fate of the coming battle and we're well prepared for it too."
"He's right," Sora smiled, "We can do this if we all stick together!"
Everyone nodded in agreement as they followed Lugwig's instructions as the hooked up the GummiDemiShip to the Master's computer. While all of this was happening. Sora recalled something Darth Maul had told him, "Then you've doomed the worlds to threats even greater Sidious. Thanos... and the Master of Masters."
Ava told him, she and the other Foretellers only knew their master was the Master of Masters. Why would Maul compare Thanos to the Master of Masters? Was he the true mastermind of the Keyblade War? If so, how would Ava and the other Foretellers react? They didn't seem like bad people to him. He turned to the computer and the Lugwig before realizing if the Master of Masters was the Mastermind, this computer would have the evidence.
He then walked up to Lugwig before whispered, "Try to find everything you can about the Keyblade War involving the Foretellers. Let me know what you find."
Lugwig was unsure why Sora would ask this but nodded all the same as he pugged in a jump drive to copy all the data from the computer.
In the meantime, Ava also agreed to come along, knowing at what was at stake. However, everyone else, on the other hand, Ephemer explained, "We would but I doubt there's enough room to carry all of us outside the box. Besides, if you fail someone needs to make sure the remaining Keyblade Wielders rise up to stop Thanos."
"We understand," Elsa nodded, "Thank you for getting us this far."
"And who knows, with any luck, we'll get all the Infinity Stones back," Anna smiled, "And free all of you from box to finish the final fight."
"If you succeed," Elrena reassured the Princesses, "We will be there."
Lauriam smiled, "If anyone can do it, your brother can. We learned that one a long time ago."
Sora turned to Cloud, "You sure you won't come with us?"
"No, even if he's gone, I still have some business to wrap up here," Cloud shook his head, "Besides, they need you back there much more than me."
Sora frowned, "Cloud..."
"I'll... come back to them when everything is said and done," Cloud reassured him after a moment, "You just focus on stopping Thanos."
Sora chuckled before nodding, "Right."
Lugwig then called out as he walked back to the GummiDemiShip, "Okay, we should be all set."
"Hey, Professor?" Anna asked, "How did your ship came to this world specifically? Why not any other world in here?"
"Well, truth be told," Lugwig told them, "When I first activated my invention, a massive power signature came of the navigation system and led us straight here."
Anna smiled to herself, "Guess that wild card of Sora's worked after all."
Spider-Man then climbed aboard the ship followed by Elsa and Anna. Rex then followed as Kristoff and Sven walked just behind him. Sora walked up to them, "Hey, we appreciate you doing this... and I'm sure Anna does too."
"Yeah," Kristoff blinked in shock, "Wait, what?"
Sven nudged him with a teasing grin as they climbed aboard the ship. Olaf and Marshmallow, the latter Elsa shrank so he'd fit in, joined the others. Olaf beamed, "I can't wait to meet all the Sora's friends!"
Scrooge and Lugwig entered the ship as Ava turned to Sora, "So, are you ready?"
"As ready as I'll ever be," Sora shrugged as they walked inside.
Skuld then called out to Sora, "Hey, Sora!"
The champion of light turned to her as she told him, "When I was out there, I meet two new friends who always sneaked in to meet me. However, someone sent me back here, and I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to them, could you tell them I'll see them again soon?"
Sora blinked in shock before nodding, "Sure, what are their names."
She answered him, "Lea and Isa."
"Oh, you mean Axel and Saïx," Sora realized. He recalled that they first joined the Organization to find a girl simply known as X to them. However she disappeared and they couldn't find her, not even Xehanort knew where she went. He then smiled, "Yeah, I definitely let them know."
"Thanks," She nodded, "And watch for the guy with the eyepatch. He's the one who sent me back and something felt off about him."
Sora blinked in confusion. Guy with the eyepatch? She couldn't have meant... well, even if she did, he didn't think he'd be a problem. He and Riku saw him take his own life after they defeated him.
Still, he nodded all the same as he hopped on the GummiDemiShip. Lauriam told the group, "Good luck, and may your heart be your guiding key."
"You too," Spidey quipped, "Pinky!"
"It's not pink!" The former Nobody exclaimed, "It's lightish red!"
Spider-Man joked, "Keep telling yourself that."
Anna patted her legs as she told Pluto, "Come on, boy! Here!"
Pluto happily hopped on the ship as Anna petted the dog, "Good boy!"
Scrooge ordered, "We're all set! Take us home!"
Lugwig smiled as he activated the ship unaware of the stowaway outside. With it hooked up to the supercomputer, a bright light filled the room before vanishing completely...
Everyone watched from inside the GummiDemiShip as they turned back to their home dimension. Elsa smiled as she turned to her brother, "Hey, you're almost back outside. Your almost back with your friends."
Sora smiled as he nodded, "Yeah. I can't wait to see everyone. The King, Donald, Goofy, Terra, Aqua, Ven, Axel, Saïx, Roxas, Xion, Naminè, Hayner, Pence, Ollete, Riku... and Kairi."
Elsa reassured him, "You'll see her again soon but we should focus on stopping Thanos first."
"Right," Sora nodded, "Professor, how long will it take for us to get there."
"Not too long now," Lugwig answered, "We should arrive at Disney Castle, the GummiPhone should be able to work by then and you can contact someone to give us a ride."
"What about the shield in case Thanos snaps," Rex wondered, "Is it ready yet?"
"Not quite," Lugwig admitted, "But that's why I will be coming with you. I'll be there to activate it as soon as it's finished."
Rex sighed, "If we get back the Gandulet and the Stones, with any luck, we won't need it."
Just then, the ship shook a little. Anna gasped, "What's wrong? Is it the Heartless?!"
"Impossible," Lugwig exclaimed as he steadied the ship, "It should be impossible for any Heartless to reach us from in between dimensions!"
Spider-Man looked out the window before groaning, "Guys, he's back again!"
Elsa looked outside the window, "Yozora! He must still be trying to 'save' Sora!"
Sora glared as he turned to Lugwig, "Professor, open the door."
Elsa turned to Sora in shock, "Sora?"
"If this ship crashes before we get outside," Sora explained, "Then we already failed. Besides, I gotta talk some sense into this guy. He's being used just as much as the rest of us are. And I made a promise to a friend of his."
Anna blinked in confusion as Sora walked up to the door, "Open it."
Lugwig nodded but warned him, "Stay near the ship! If you get too far before we get home..."
Sora nodded as the doors opened, "Got it." He then began to fly out of the ship and flew next to Yozora, "Hey! You want me? Then come and get me!"
Yozora's eyes narrowed in determination as he jumped off the ship and flew ahead of it. Both fighters pulled out their respective weapons as he told him, "Let's finish this."
Sora smirked, "Took the words right out of my mouth."
The two engaged each other as their weapons clashed against each other before pushing each other back. Yozora slashed his weapon against Sora. He blocked each of the strikes as he told him, "Stop it! We need to talk!"
"No, we don't!" Yozora stated as he pressed on his attack, "I need to save you."
Sora continued blocking every swing, every strike as he held his ground metaphorically speaking. Then next strike pushed Sora on the roof of the DemiGummiShip. The video game character flew down for another swing as Sora dodged rolled and blocked the strike after, "Don't you understand what I'm trying to do! If Maleficent gives the Stones to Thanos, billions of lives will be lost. Anyone of those you cherish will die if we don't stop him! Not to mention if I can't get the Stones back, the worlds will be doomed!"
"The worlds are already doomed," Yozora stated, "But if you let me, I can ensure you'll live in the new one!"
"Not interest," Sora replied, "I've got friends and family to save in this one!"
Sora then countered attacked landing several hits on Yozora. He was sent flying off the ship after the combo ended, Yozora then recovered himself as he floated in midair before summoning Gigas at him. Sora tightened his grip on his Keyblade as he promised, "And I will keep my promise to your friend even if I gotta beat you senseless to do it!"
Sora lept off the ship striking at the giant robots cutting them in two causing them to miss the ship entirely. Everyone watched as the fight raged on, Anna seemed relieved that Sora managed to protect them from the Gigas, "Whew! That was a close one!"
Scrooge turned to Elsa, "So, what's this man's beef with Sora?"
"Long story short," The twin sister answered, "He's a, I believed Sora called him a video character from Toy Box. Apparently, he was sent by a man in a black coat to 'save' Sora from what comes next."
Ava turned to Elsa confused, "Wait, Luxu sent him?"
"It wasn't Luxu," Spider-Man admitted as he saw both Luxu and the mastermind, "We did meet the guy but he and the other guy had different voices. It couldn't have been him."
Ava was even more confused, "If it wasn't Luxu... then who else could it be?"
"What about your master?" Rex offered.
"W-what?!" Ava shocked by the Captian's statement, "Why would you even suggest that?! He never would do that!"
Rex then pulled out the weapon he took from Yozora from the time he fought him, "Then why did your master's lab produced the weapons Yozora uses? Don't you find it odd he made weapons specifically to go against the Keyblade?"
Ava was stunned as Rex sighed as he removed his helmet, "Look. I don't mean to offend you and I could be wrong but unless someone doing a very good job setting up your mentor... he's the obvious suspect."
Anna placed a comforting hand on Ava's shoulder, "Hey, we'll figure it out but we could use your help saving the universe first then we can figure out who truly is behind this."
Ava sighed before nodding, "Right. I just... really hope you're wrong."
Just then, they spotted Sora avoiding strikes from his own weapon, as Yozora managed to steal his Keyblade again. Spider-Man groaned in annoyance, "Man... I hate that move."
"Sora needs help!" Anna gasped as she made her way to the door.
Just then, Kristoff stopped, "Easy Anna. You can't go out there! There's no way you'd be able to keep up with them. You go out there now and you can end up God only knows where."
"I hate to say it," Elsa nodded in agreement, "But Sora's on his own. None of us have the capability of standing out there and keeping close enough to the ship."
Spider-Man then cleared his throat, "Well, that's not entirely true. We do have another Keybladerer and yours truly here too."
Ava smiled and nodded as she summoned her Keyblade, "Let's go then."
Sora held black Yozora's arms as he struggled to force his opponent to let go of his own weapons. Yozora's eyes narrowed, "I won't lose to you again."
Suddenly, web struck him in the eyes blinding him, "What?!"
Sora used this distraction to kick Yozora off of him. Spider-Man quipped, "Hey, no ticket, no free ride!"
Sora turned to see Spider-Man and Ava standing on the roof of the DemiGummiShip. Ava raised her Keyblade as a giant bolt of lightning struck Yozora forcing him to return Sora's Keyblade as Ava proceeded to cast a healing spell on Sora. He nodded in appreciation, "Thanks!"
Yozora then created images of himself but Spider-Man's Spider-Sense knew which one to strike and he shot a web to him and kicked him and presented him with a droid popper, "Rex sends I'm his regards."
He tossed the armed mini EMP as he webbed himself back to the ship as it went off. Yozora groaned as his weapons have been disabled, "Not again!"
Inside the ship, Lugwig told the group, "Returning to our home dimension in seven, six..."
Sora twirled his Keyblade as he prepared for the final strike as Lugwig continued to count down, "...five, four..."
Sora flew at Yozora as he prepared to swing, "...three, two, one..."
Sora then slammed the Keyblade into him as they arrived at their destination. Yozora tumbled hard on the floor defend as Keyblade's chosen landed on his feet. Spider-Man looked around, "So, is this the place? Did we make it?"
Sora looked around and smiled as he saw they were in the royal chamber of Disney Castle, "Yeah, we made it."
Everyone stepped out of the DemiGummiShip as Olaf looked around, "It's so bright! I like it here!" He turned to Anna, "Is this Sora's home?"
"No, Olaf," Anna smiled, "Sora lived on the Destiny Islands this is..." She then tried to recall where they were before turning to Scrooge McDuck, "Where are we again?"
"Disney Castle," Scrooge smiled, "Home sweet home!"
"Ah, there you are," A familiar voice spoke up, "Glad it to see everyone made it back safely."
Sora turned to see the King's wife walking up towards them, "Queen Minnie?"
The Queen blinked in shock before smiling, "Sora! You've returned!"
Sora stood at attention as he gave a respective bow to her. The moment Queen reached to everyone's ears, the gentlemen bowed as the young women curtsied. Queen Minnie added, "Everyone will be happy to see that you made it home safely. And I see you didn't come alone."
Sora smiled, "It's good to be back but I'm afraid introductions will have to wait." His expression then turned serious, "We need to get to the King and Riku. They need our help."
Just then, they heard a groan from Yozora. Just then something began flickering around his face before it stopped to reveal the scares and burn marks. Sora blinked in shock, "What?!"
"I told you. That wasn't how I really looked like," Yozora reminded Sora, "Not anymore."
Elsa wondered, "What happened to you?"
Yozora stood upon his knee, "When the destruction of the Keyblade War reached my world, I took the front of it as my world was nearly swallowed by the darkness. Someone called the Master of Masters found me and saved me and my world by placing it in the box you were all trapped in. Most of my people barely remember me looking any different. Only my closest friends and family knew the truth."
He looked to Sora as gasped at his scarred face, "That's why I was shocked when you knew who I was in that illusion the Master created."
Rex wondered, "Why did you help him?"
"He took someone close to me," He answered, "My light. He said if I saved Sora from the final Keyblade War, he'd bring her back."
Ava frowned, "So it is true..."
"Listen, Yozora," Sora spoke up, "I know where she is, her heart anyways..."
Yozora looked away, "You don't know who you're talking about?"
"It's true," Sora told him, "I talked to her on the Final World. While she doesn't know who she is, she definitely remembers you. She's waiting for you. I can take you to her when it is all over."
Yozora remained silent. Minnie frowned, "Until your ready to behave, I must put you somewhere you won't cause any trouble." She then called out, "Guards!"
Just then, the Queen's guards marched into the room as everyone stared as they saw what the guard's were. Elsa asked, "Are those...?"
Anna blinked, "Broomsticks?"
Kristoff sighed, "Just when you thought I've seen everything, this happens."
With that, the guards escorted Yozora to a cell as Sora called out to him, "I'll come back to you when the worlds are safe! I'll take you to her! You have my word!"
Yozora looked back as the brooms continued escorting him away. Minnie then turned to Sora, "The King mentioned something about Stones that are as powerful as the X-blade. Are they the problem?"
Sora nodded, "Yeah, Maleficent has them!"
Minnie gasped, "Oh dear!" Minnie couldn't help but wonder, "Why haven't you tried contacting him yet?!"
"We can't," Anna answered as she slowly realized, "Sora's GummiPhone doesn't work... inside... the ... box..."
Spider-Man shrugged, "Well, we're not inside it anymore."
Elsa admitted, "I nearly forgot myself after everything that's happened."
Rex shrugged, "Well, no time like the present. You better call them."
Sora pulled out his GummiPhone and dialed up some of his oldest friends...
Meanwhile, the GummiShip, Highwind was heading back to the Keyblade Graveyard. Riku piloted the ship as Goofy looked concerned, "I hope everyone's okay."
"Aw phooey!" Donald crossed his arms, "They probably fine! We've fought Maleficent, Pete, and even Jafar before and we've always come on top! They can deal with them."
"Except, they have all six Infinity Stones," Riku pointed out, "And for all we know, Thanos could be there as well and we don't know what he's capable of even without the Stones. At least with Master Xehanort, we had a general idea of what he could do."
"Gwarsh," Goofy frowned, "I wish Sora was here."
Riku sighed as he nodded in agreement, "Yeah, me too."
All of a sudden, the GummiPhone began to ring causing everyone to blink. Donald beamed, "Is it the King?!"
Goofy offered, "Maybe they were able to get the Stones back from Maleficent?"
Riku pulled out his phone, "One way to find out I guess."
He answered the phone as Sora's image appeared on screen, "Hey, Riku! Donald! Goofy!"
Riku gasped, "What?! Sora?!"
Just then, he was shoved aside as Donald and Goofy beamed, "SORA!"
Riku complained, "Hey!"
Sora chuckled, "Guess you know how I felt whenever that happened to me."
Riku managed to get back on the screen, "I don't understand. How'd you'd get out without the Stones?
"Uncle Scrooge and Professor Lugwig were experimenting with a DemiGummiShip when they found me," Sora answered.
"Wait," Donald gasped, "Uncle Scrooge?!"
Sora smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I used Luxord's wild card to summon them and they used the ship to get us out."
"That's great," Riku smiled, "We can honestly use your help."
"We've got something back at Disney Castle that should help," Sora explained, "Something that can protect from the Stones' power."
"Oh, boy!" Goofy beamed, "That's perfect!"
Riku's eyes narrowed with determination, "We're on our way."
As he put the phone away, Donald exclaimed, "We need to get back to Disney Castle!"
"And fast!" Goofy added, "The others are counting on us!"
Riku nodded as he turned to ship around as they head back to the Kingdom of King Mickey...
Arriving at the GummiShip hanger, Sora's group met the GummiShip engineers, Chip and Dale, leaving most of the group startled at the sight of actual, talking chipmunks while Anna and Ava just cooed over how cute they were. If it were not for a quick intervention on Sora and Elsa's part, the two probably would have even suffocated the poor gummi engineers in tight hugs, but there was no denying that Chip and Dale were both very flattered by their praise all the same.
Chip and Dale were currently helping Professor Lugwig Von Drake the shield generator to the hanger. Just then, the GummiShip enter the hanger. Elsa smiled, "Well, here they are?"
"Huh? The Highwind's kinda cool for something that sounds it was made from gumdrops." Spider-Man admitted, "Still can't take the name seriously though."
The door to the ship opened as Riku walked out of the ship... only to be knocked aside by Donald and Goofy as he complained, "Seriously?!"
Donald and Goofy tackled Sora into a hug, "SORA!"
Elsa looked down at the trio, "Guess those must be Donald and Goofy."
Captain Rex muttered, "I figured they'd take things more seriously... or at least Donald was at least taller."
"Oh, don't pretend you're not happy for them," Anna smiled, "Sora traveled with them much longer than he has with us."
Sora suddenly got bonked on the head by Donald, "Ow! What was that for?!"
"You disturbed the World Order by bringing them along!" Donald glared, "You couldn't keep your mouth shut for a minute could you?!"
"Hey, they've been a big help!" Sora defended them and himself, "I couldn't have made it without besides I could reach you or Goofy."
"You would of if you'd brought us along with you when you saved Kairi," Donald glared.
Goofy simply laughed, "Doesn't matter now! Us three half-pints are together again!"
Anna tilted her head, "Half pints?"
Sora chuckled as he stood up, "It's a long story."
Just then, Riku picked himself up as he walked over to Sora as he pulled in a bro hug, "It's good to have you back."
"It's good to be back," Sora nodded as they released each other from the hug, "Just wished it was under better circumstances."
"Yeah," Riku nodded in agreement before turning to Sora's sisters, "Elsa. Anna. Good to finally meet you in person."
"Same," Anna nodded, "It was a little weird seeing you as a ghost."
Riku chuckled as he admitted, "Yeah, you're related to Sora alright."
He then turned to Kristoff, Sven, Ava, Captain Rex, Spider-Man, Olaf, and Marshmallow, "I may not have known you all for long but thanks for help Sora find his way home."
Olaf nodded, "It's nice to finally meet you Riku! I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs!"
Riku faltered a bit seeing Olaf before he looked at Sora. "Team mascot?"
Riku wasn't that shocked because he had seen stranger over the years. Sora answered on Olaf's behalf, "I guess. But, he was made by Elsa so... That makes him family."
"Sora told me all about you." Olaf beamed.
"He told all of us actually." Elsa mentioned with a smile.
"I bet. Did he leave the 'best parts' out?" Riku frowned.
Sora knew immediately he met the time he had gave in to the darkness, worked with Maleficent's group, and became possessed by Ansem, Xehanort's Heartless. Elsa nodded, "Yes, but he also mentioned that you did everything you could to make things right, so we don't care of what you did then."
Anna nodded in agreement as Riku sighed in relief, "Thanks." He turned to Sora, "So, you said you had some protection from the Stones."
"Yep," Sora nodded as he pulled three disks from his pocket and gave them to Riku, Donald, and Goofy, "I know it doesn't look like much but it can become armor with a power boost."
"We're hoping in case Thanos does manage to get the Stones," Rex explained as they took the disks, "We can catch him off guard and defeat him."
Riku nodded in agreement, "Good thinking."
He placed the disk on but didn't turn it on. Donald and Goofy did the same. Just then, Ludwig, Chip, and Dale entered the room working on the shield generator. Chip turned to the group, "Hey, guys!"
Riku couldn't help but wonder, "What's this now?"
"Will the armor can protect incase Thanos snaps his fingers," Dale explained, "Everyone else won't be so lucky, so the shield generator can protect the rest of the worlds from the snap."
Chip also added, "We also having it re configured so that anyone who's nearby Thanos without armor, the shield can also identify anyone with a GummiPhone protecting them as well."
Riku nodded, "Good because it might be a bit difficult to get armor for everyone."
"What do you mean?" Sora asked in concern.
Goofy frowned, "Well, after Riku warned the King that Maleficent had the Infinity Stones, we lost contact with him."
Donald frowned as he sighed. Spider-Man turned to Riku, "Then we need to head over there! Quick!"
"Yeah!" Sora nodded with determination before turning to Ludwig, "How long until that things ready?"
"Well..." Ludwig admitted, "It may take a bit so try to stall Maleficent if you can."
Everyone nodded as Riku told the group, "Alright, let's go save the others."
Everyone climbed aboard the GummiShip except for Sora as he turned to the sky. Riku noticed he was holding Kairi's good luck charm and knew who he was thinking about. He sighed, "I know you want to see Kairi. She if she's okay now that you're back. However, the Stones have to come first otherwise all of this will be for nothing."
Sora nodded, "Right." He then whispered, "Kairi... just wait a little bit longer."
He turned to the brother he never had, "Alright, let's go!"
The two Keyblade Wielders board the ship as everyone took their seats. The GummiShip looked like it was ready to take off. Anna exclaimed, "BLAST OFF!"
Just then, an arrow pointed down appeared to them as Sora recalled, "Oh, I forget about that."
Just then the GummiShip fell down a hole as everyone began screaming, "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"
"WWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKK!"
"YYYYYYYAAAH HOO HOO HOOEY!"
The GummiShip popped out at the other bottom of the Disney Castle before finally taking off and blasting off into space. They headed to where the final battle would take place. The Keyblade Graveyard...
Meanwhile on Radiant Garden, in the lab of Ansem the Wise. A certain resting Princess of Heart slowly opened up her eyes, ending her long sleep...
On their way to that fated place, the group also met Jiminy Cricket. He was very eager to learn of Sora and his allies' journey inside the box so he could add it to the journal. Elsa gave the cricket the cliff notes off all the places they've been too and all they friends they met along the way.
Donald even seemed to warm up to the group despite the fact Sora couldn't keep his mouth shut about the other worlds to them even if Spider-Man and Rex already knew about them.
However, time for catching up came to an end as they finally entered the world where the Keyblade War took place as the next one would take place. Upon stepping out, everyone observed the world around them. Sora frowned, "I never thought I'd ever come back here again."
"Yeah," Riku nodded in agreement, "The others felt the same."
Everyone saw the fallen Keyblade's surrounding them. Elsa touched on of them, "So many lives came to an end here... and for what? Power?"
Anna muttered, "This place is giving me the creeps."
Spider-Man looked around, "So, where is everybody? I don't see any good guys or bad guys?"
"I figure if the villains where anywhere nearby," Riku answered, "It would have been best to keep our distance from the battle while we landed so we wouldn't risk damaging the shield."
Everyone nodded with understanding, when they saw explosions in the distance. Anna blinked, "Is that...?"
Just then, Goofy spotted something else, "Look! Over there!"
Everyone turned to see a group running towards them. Naminè led Hayner, Pence, Ollete, and Chirithy to them. As Riku gasped, "Naminè!"
Sora blinked in shock, "Naminè?"
The blonde girl in her white dress gasped as she then turned to the group, "This way, guys!"
The non-fighters ran up to the group as Naminè smiled in relief, "Sora! Thank God you're here!"
"Yeah," Hayner nodded, "You're timing couldn't be better."
Riku asked, "What happened?"
"It's Thanos," Naminè answered, "Apparently, he was held prisoner on this world but Maleficent set him free."
Spider-Man shrugged, "Great! Like things weren't bad enough with Maleficent and her cronies!"
Sora turned to Naminè with concern, "Does he have the Stones?"
"I don't think so," Naminè admitted making everyone sign in relief, they still had some time to get them back. She then added, "However, he is very strong. Ven told me to take Hayner, Pence, Olette, and Chirithy to safety while they dealt with Thanos but from how things sound it doesn't look like they can stall him forever."
Sora's eyes narrowed with determination, "We've got to help them."
"Hold on, Sora," Riku told his best friend, "To quote a friend of ours, 'if you chase two rabbits, you'll lose both of them.'"
Olaf tilted his head, "What does rabbits have to do with anything?"
"It's just a metaphor." Kristoff muttered to Olaf.
"I'm afraid Silver here has a point Sora. We have the Stones first," Spider-Man stated agreeing with Riku who pondered why he called him 'Silver' until he rubbed his own hair.
"But... What about the others out there? They won't-" Sora tried to say.
"Trust me. I've heard stories about this guy. You do not want to deal with him now." Spider-Man insisted, "And you don't what to find out what he can do with the Stones."
"Sora. Listen to him. Let's deal with the problem in front of us." Elsa backed up Spidey while gesturing the stones.
Ava walked up to Sora, "I can go back there to aid them. My power should give you guys more time to gather Stones. Maybe even use them against Thanos himself."
Rex nodded, "If we do get the Stones first... we can free both the worlds and stop Thanos for good."
"Yeah, we'd kill two birds with one stone," Kristoff nodded in agreement but before Olaf could say something he quickly added, "Also a metaphor."
Sora sighed, "Alright..."
Ava told the group as she summoned her Keyblade, "May our hearts be our guiding key."
She then ran off the join the fight against the Mad Titan. Anna turned to Naminè, "So... if Thanos is over there, then where's Maleficent and the Stones?"
Naminè gestured to the maze ahead, "Over there I think, we saw a blast coming over there that freed Thanos."
Everyone turned to the maze. Sora recognized the maze as it's where the Guardians of Light battled Organization XIII. However, there was one slight problem, it's was guard by thousands of not millions of Heartless. Spider-Man groaned, "Of course it's never that easy."
"We can't fight all of those Heartless, we never make it in time," Anna frowned.
Rex reached for his communicator, "I'll try call the Republic for reinforcements. Maybe we can call an air strike and..." He then paused as everyone gave him odd looks as he recalled, "Who are all currently still trapped within the box. Right. Scratch that idea."
Riku offered, "Maybe Master Yen Sid can show up and help us like last time."
"Oh!" Elsa blinked, "So someone who can get us through this unscathed in case we need his held against Thanos. Sora..."
Sora's eyes widened, "The Genie! Of course!"
Sora pulled out his Keyblade and got ready to summon their friend for help. Elsa turned to Naminè, "The rest of you get back to the ship, find Master Yen Sid."
Olette nodded, "Good idea... not much we can do out here anyways."
"Yeah," Pence agreed, "We be more of a liability than a help here."
Chirithy nodded, "Good luck."
Anna squealed, "Oh my gosh!" She then pulled Chirithy into a hug, "You're so cute!"
"Hey! Put me down!" Chirithy exclaimed as everyone began laughing, "Sora! A little help here!"
Sora then turned to Kairi's former shadow, "Hey, Naminè?" The young woman turned to Sora as he gave her a nod, "Thank you... and that's the official one by the way."
Naminè smiled at that as Sora went back to summoning an old friend from Agrabah...
Meanwhile, Terra was sent flying back, crashing through several boulders before finally coming to a stop. Most of the Guardians were already down as they only ones still standing were Aqua, King Mickey, Roxas, Lea, and Isa.
Thanos laughed, "Is this the best you can do? You Guardians are a joke comparedto the other Keyblade Wielders before you!"
Axel glared at the Mad Titan as he and Roxas stared to the defeated Xion. He exclaimed, "Shut up!" He then charged at Thanos with his Keyblade turning into his Chakrams before cast a huge cast of fire at him, "AND BURN BABY!"
The flames coming from Axel appeared to consume Thanos. The flames were so hot the others were furthest away could feel the heat. However, a massive hand grabbed Axel and threw him aside. Thanos grinned as he stepped out of the flames, "Weak."
Isa raised his weapon as he exclaimed, "I call upon the moon's pale light!" This charged his power before charging at the villain, he raised it as he exclaimed, "BEGONE!"
Thanos simply blocked the attack before slamming his fist across the former Nobody's face. The punch sent him flying across the battle flew but was caught by winds casted by Aqua. Mickey then gasped, "Aqua! Look out!"
Aqua gasped as she noticed the Mad Titan charging at her. She raised her Keyblade as she exclaimed, "Reflect!"
A shield barrier surrounded her as Thanos's fists slammed on top of it. He continued to pound on the barrier as it soon began to crack. Roxas and Mickey gasped at this as they went over to assist her. They slash Thanos across the back making him wince before chuckling, "All that effort for a speck of my blood."
He continued to pound on Aqua's shield as Roxas and Mickey went in for another attack but Thanos was ready for them this time. He grabbed the two before slamming them on Aqua's shield before throwing them aside as he continued his attack making the cracks larger.
Meanwhile, Maleficent, Pete, Vanitas, Jafar, Thane, and Hans watched as the battle raged on. Pete laughed, "Now this is a show!"
Jafar chuckled, "The only thing that would make this better if the King's lackeys and the traitor Riku were also suffering in this battle."
Hans turned to the King and Queen of Arendelle as he told them, "I do hope you enjoy the show because once he finished with them, all we need to do is hand over the Stones to Thanos and the worlds will be ours for the taking!"
"You can't do this!" The Queen stated bodily, "If you give the Stones to Thanos, he'll wipe out half the universe! You all could die too!"
"Sacrifices must be made," Hans smirked, "And I don't know about you but my chances of survival are much greater than yours."
"And should you survive the snap," Vanitas added, "I get to feed on your negativity. The loss of your people and family will make me stronger."
Angarr glared, "Even if that does happen, some one will stop you."
"If your referring to your children," Maleficent smirked, "In particular a certain son of yours, then your surly mistaken. They remain trapped within the box with no way out."
Thane turned to the parents as he whispered, "I truly am sorry but it was the only way they'd survive this."
Pete narrowed his eyes before gasping, "Hey, who's that?! Over there!"
The villains turned their attention back to the battle as Thanos broke through Aqua's shield and was ready to do harm to her something slammed hard into him knocking him back. Thanos shook his head from the attack as he turned to his attacker. He grinned, "Finally, a real challenge."
Ava glared as she pointed her Keyblade at Thanos. She then raised her weapon as she exclaimed, "HEAL!"
With that spell, the entire Guardians of Light were healed and back to full strength. Everyone stood up as they turned to face Thanos. Ava turned to the guardians, "Get up! We haven't lost yet!"
Everyone went into their battle stances as they prepared for the second round. Thane blinked, "Master Ava?"
Hans looked generally confused, "Wasn't she still trapped in the box with the others."
"If she's then..." Jafar went on before music started playing in the background, "No, it can't be..."
The villains turned to see something marching through the wave of Heartless. A parade of some kind with Genie leading the charge. The men carrying Arendelle's flags marched as they declared, "Make way~ For Prince Sora~"
Several Arendellain Soldiers cut through the waves of Heartless as they sang, "Say hey~ It's Prince Sora~"
"I know this song was originally before Jafar's reprise but who cares! We're doing anyways!" Genie beamed as danced through the wave of Heartless, "Hey! Clear the way! In the old bazaar!"
Genie then blasted another way of Heartless as he sang, "Hey you! It's a return of a star! Oh come be the first on your block to meet his eye~"
He blew another wave of Heartless away as he declared, "Make way! Here he comes! Ring bells! Bang the drums! Are you going to love this guy!"
Genie then gestured to the young man who summoned him, "Prince Sora~ fabulous he~ Sora of Arendelle~"
A rug appeared under a group of Heartless as Spider-Man yanked it causing the Heartless to topple over, "Genuflect, show some respect! Down on one knee~"
"Now try your best to stay calm~" Most of the villains were dumbfounded as all of their enemies trapped within the box were now free. Pete was nodding to the catchy song until he got glares from his allies, "Brush off your sunday salaam~ Then come and meet his spectacular coterie~"
Elsa aided the Genie by freezing them a path through before Genie burst it as he sang, "Prince Sora~ Mighty is he~ Sora of Arendelle~"
Sora cut through a huge wave of Heartless as Genie declared, "Strong as ten regular men definitely~"
Genie then appeared as an old man next to Rex as the Clone was blasting any stranglers with his blasters, "He faced those Organization hordes!"
He then appeared to Olaf as a child, "A hundred Heartless with swords!"
He then appeared as large man next to Anna, Kristoff, Sven, and Riku as he asked, "Who sent those goons to their lords?!"
Everyone sang together as they gestured to Sora, "Why Prince Sora~"
"He's got seventy-five golden Keychains~" The people sang as they presented the golden keychains.
Genie appeared as a news reporter, "Don't they look lovely, June?"
"Best friends he's got fifty three~" The women sang as they showed holographic images of all his friends.
Genie now as a female reporter replied, "Fabulous, Harry! Love these characters!"
"When it comes to exotic type mammals~" Genie snag as Sven smirked as he rammed into a Heartless.
Genie then appeared by Marshmallow as a small tiger, "Has he got a zoo!"
He then appeared beside Donald and Goofy as a goat, "I'm telling you!"
Everyone then sang together, "It's a world class menagerie~"
Genie then slammed awaymany Heartless as Genie appeared as a large woman along with three girls that looked like other versions of Kairi's. One was wearing an outfit similar to Jasmine's, the second was wearingaoutfit similar to Captain Marvel back when she was known as Ms. Marvel, and the third was wearing a Jabba The Hutt's slave attire. Genie sang, "Prince Sora~ Handsome is he~ Sora of Arendelle~"
The versions of Kairi sang, "There's no question this Sora's impressive~ Never ordinary, never boring~"
Sora easily got distracted for two reasons. One, they happened to look like Kairi. Two, their interesting choices of clothes. Even Riku got distracted as he too once had a crush on Kairi. He quickly shook it off as Elsa helped her brother focus on the battle as Genie sang, "That physique! How can I speak?! Weak at the knee~"
The three versions of Kairi danced around kicking around Heartless every now and then, "Everything about the man just plain impresses~"
"Well get on out in that square!" Genie sang blasting away another group of Heartless, "Adjust your veil and prepare!"
"He's a winner, he's a whiz, a wonder!" The versions of Kairi sang giving Sora a wink, "He's about to pull my heart asunder!"
Sora had to remind himself that the real Kairi was on Radiant Garden waiting for him. He held her good luck charm tightly remembering his promise as he focused on fighting Heartless as Genie sang, "To gawk and grovel and stare at Prince Sora~"
"And I absolutely love the way he dresses~" The groupof Kairis sang before fainting as Genie caught them.
The heroes closed in on the maze as everyone sang, "He's got ninety-five white persian monkeys~"
Justthen, an army of persian monkeys charged in and attacked as Olaf beamed, "He's got the monkeys! Let's see the monkeys!"
"And to view them~ he charges no fee~" Genie andcrowdsangas they were nearing the entrance of the maze.
Kristoff and surprisingly Spider-Man joined in, as they fought nearby Heartless, "He's generous! So generous!"
The parade walked up to the entrance as they prepared to ram to gate open, "He's got thousands of servants and flunkies~"
Riku, Donald, and Goofy beamed as they prepared to fight some old enemies, "Proud to work for him!"
"They bow to his whim! Love serving him! They're just lousy with loyalty to Sora~" Genie and the crowd sang before Sora's sisters and friends joined in, "Prince Sora~"
Just then, they rammed open the gates entering the maze as everyone sang, "Prince Sora~ Amorous he~ Sora of Arrendelle~"
"Heard the worlds were in a crisis~ had come to see~" Genie dance aroundas everyherothere entered the maze, "And that you villains is why~ He escaped the box and stop by~"
"With sixty elephants~ Llamas galore~ With his bears and lions~ A brass band and more! With forty fakirs, his cooks and bakers~ And birds that warble on key! Make way~" The crowd sang as Sora summoned his Keyblade as everyone gestured to the Keyblade Wielder, "For Prince Sora~"
The villains were dumbfoundedas Jafar exclaimed, "How did those street rats escape the box! We have the Stones!"
Maleficent's eyes narrowed, "Sora must have found another way out!"
The King and Queen of Arendelle smirked as Angarr stated, "Didn't see that one coming, did you?"
Maleficent scold at him before stating, "No matter, it'll be much more enjoyable destroying your son and his friends ourselves."
Maleficent presented all of her allies with an Infinity Stone. Hans took the Soul Stone, Vanitas claimed the Reality Stone, and Thane took the Time Stone. When Jafar was offered on, he merely chuckled, "I'm an all powerful genie, I need no Infinity Stone." He turned to Hans as he declared, "I'll soften them up for you and you finish them. No wish required."
Hans smirked as he summoned his Keyblade in his hand, he wanted to wipe that smile off a certain Keyblader's face. And to make an arachnid surfer as well. Maleficent then handed over the Mind Stone and the Power Stone to Pete, "Uh, why do I get two? Not that I'm complaining or anything, Maleficent. Just curious."
Maleficent smirked, "If those fools wish to be reunited with family, who are we to interfere. After all, a certain Nobody is still out there."
Pete blinked before laughing as Maleficent kept the Space Stone to herself, "Remember, when Thanos is finished with them, we'll give him the Stones as promised."
With that the villains spread out in the maze but no before Jafar took the parents of Sora, Elsa, and Anna with him...
Meanwhile with the others, Sora turned to the Genie, "Thanks again, Genie."
"No problem!" Genie smiled, "You need me again, you know where to find me."
"Hey, Genie," Elsa spoke up, "Hans had Jafar by his side. How do we stop him?"
"Well, the good news is considering he seen you escaped," Genie stated, "I doubt he used his last wish to set Jafar free."
Anna blinked in confusion, "I get he can't kill us or anything like that but... how does that help us?"
"Remember," Genie pointed out, "Every genie has their prison."
Sora nodded, "Yeah! The lamp!"
"So, we just need to get the lamp away from Hans and we can use it to put Jafar back in his prison." Kristoff asked.
Spider-Man stated, "We still need to take it from him. And now they have the Infinity Stones so I doubt it'll be easy."
"Well, then we'll have to take the Stones away from them too!" Sora declared.
Elsa wondered, "But what if we run into our parents? Or Thane?"
Sora frowned, "We try to save them if we can. However, the Infinity Stones come first."
Everyone knew what that meant and why Sora said it. Genie then beamed, "See you in the next Kingdom Hearts crossover!"
He then poofed away back to his world. Rex drew out his blasters, "Considering what were up against. It's going to take all of us to stop them."
Sora smiled as he turned to Donald and Goofy, "All for one and one for all."
Donald and Goofy smiled and nodded. Riku spoke up as he summoned his Keyblade, "Let's get moving. Ava and our friends can't hold off Thanos forever."
Kristoff and Anna hopped on Sven as the reindeer ran through the maze. The road split in two directions and Sora could tell they each at least had one Infinity Stone in each area. Kristoff wondered, "Which way?"
Sora trusted the guidance his heart gave as he whispered, "May my heart be my guiding key." He then made his decision, "Let's go left! I can tell there's at two Infinity Stones over there!"
Everyone nodded as they followed Sora's lead. They entered the area where Sora teamed up with King Mickey to battle Luxord, Marluxia, and Larxene. Everyone looked around, Anna's eyes narrowed, "Alright! Where's the bad guys?!"
Just then, they heard Pete laughing as he looked down among them, "Oh, we're all here!"
"Pete!" Donald glared, "You thug!"
Goofy glared, "You're not escaping us this time! Don't think we forgot that you and Maleficent held Queen Minnie hostage!"
Spider-Man shrugged, "Do you really think you can take us? You could have all six Stones and you still won't know how to tie your shoes!"
Pete's eyes narrowed with anger at Spider-Man's comment but smirked again, "Oh, but I'm not alone you see..."
"Alright," Riku's eyes narrowed, "Who is it? Maleficent? Vanitas? Hans? Jafar?"
"Nope," Pete smirked, "You wanted to see a family reunion, well, I with someone who's been dying to see you again."
Just then, another figure walked up as Sora, Elsa, and Anna's eyes narrowed at the figure. It was none ever than their grandfather, King Runeard. Anna wondered, "How is he back? Didn't we stop him before in Arendelle?"
"His Heartless, yes," Sora nodded, "Although, we were never able to find his Nobody."
"Guess Maleficent found him and convinced him to join her side," Elsa glared.
Spider-Man turned to his girlfriend, "Um... who's this guy supposed to be?"
"Runeard," Elsa answered, "Our grandfather."
"Oh, let me guess," Spider-Man frowned, "Black sheep of the family."
Elsa nodded as Pete used the Mind Stone on the former King making him think Pete was one of his soldiers, "There they are your majesty. These are the pipsqueaks that protect the people of Northuldra."
"Yes, my 'dear' grandchildren," The former King's eyes narrowed, "I'll deal with them myself."
Pete nodded as he tossed him the Power Stone, "They're all yours."
Runeard took the Infinity Stone and leaped down to the group as he drew out his sword. He then walked up to the group, "No more distractions. I'm cleansing my family background today."
"We're not the ones who backstabbed our neighbors, Runeard," Sora countered as he aimed his Keyblade at him.
Runeard glared at Sora, "That's King Runeard to you, boy."
"You not King any more," Elsa glared, "Our father, your son is."
"Speaking of, what kind of a father would endanger their son's life," Anna added, "And I'm mean way before you attack Arendelle, when you brought your own son when you tried to wipe out Northuldra."
"My son had to see the threat of Northuldra first had," The former King insisted, "The risk was necessary."
Sora pointed out, "Except if it hadn't been for our mother, he would have died or been trapped in the mist and Arendelle would have been left without a ruler."
Riku added, "I don't fully understand what's happening but from my friends have said Northuldra isn't a threat to your world. You are."
Runeard glared as Spider-Man added, "Not to mention you going to be handing over a stone to a nut job. You do it and trillions will die including your own people."
The former king shook his head, "Your lies won't fool me."
"I'd listen to them if I were you," Rex drew out his blasters, "If you want do the right thing, give us the Stone."
Instead of doing what Rex told him, he infused the Power Stone with his sword as he exclaimed, "NEVER!"
He charged at the group as he slammed his sword on the ground creating a shock way as everyone backed away from the attack. Sora and the others went into their battle stances as they prepared to fight the former King of Arendelle.
Rex didn't hesitate to open fire upon him. While each shot made it's mark, it did nothing more than annoy him. He swung his blade at the clone. Rex caught it just it time before the blade could make contact, however, he couldn't hold him forever. Thankfully, Riku came in to assist the Captain of the 501st, "Dark Fire!"
The former King was blasted away from the clone with blue balls of fire. Anna and Kristoff hopped on Sven as they rode around Runeard, as they opened fire upon him. He grunted in annoyance before Marshmallow rammed into him knocking him hard. Goofy then threw his shield much like Captain America as it slammed into his chin. Donald followed the attack with his own, "Thunder!"
Lightning struck the former King as Sora and Riku went to engaged Runeard as each of them hit him with their respective Keyblades. After a few more hits, Runeard swung his sword at them. Sora and Riku blocked the attacks but the attacks did push them back due to the Power Stone. Elsa then blasted the former King with her ice powers keeping him away from her brother and his best friend.
However, despite struggling at first, he slowly walked his way towards Elsa until he was close enough for an attack. Spider-Man came in with a swinging kick as he thought to himself, "Good thing, I'm not trying to earn his approval."
Spider-Man quipped, "Gee, you're really trying to earn your grandfather of the year award. If it were Opposite Day!"
The kick only staggered the former king as Runeard regained his ground and blasted a few death rays at Spider-Man who lept and dodge by jumping from pillar to pillar doing back flips and triple axels. Showing off his spider agility while dodging the former king's attacks.
"You dare make a fool out of me?!" Runeard exclaimed.
"You don't need my help for that! Look in a mirror lately?! For a guy that hates magic, you're sure using it to end us! Can you say hypocrisy?! Backwards?!" Spider-Man quipped to get on the former king's nerves.
Spider-Man webbed him in the face blinding him as he roared in anger as Spidey beamed, "I knew that you could!"
Riku turned to Sora, "Sora! Just like the World That Never Was!"
Sora recalled them move that he was taking about. They haven't really tried it again since then but no reason why they couldn't now. Sora's eyes narrowed with determination, ""LET'S DO THIS!"
"OUTTA MY WAY!" Riku exclaimed
Together with repeated hit the Nobody head in mid-air as Riku taunted, "Is that all you got?" They both hit the former king with Firega and Dark Firega attacks, "I'll take him!"
"Okay!" Sora nodded as the thirteen blades striking Runeard on all sides, "GIVE ME STRENGTH!"
"GOING TO LOSE IT ALL!" Riku exclaimed. With that, they threw their respective Keyblades in the air as they blasted the Nobody on both sides with light as Runeard began to stumble, Riku and Sora gave each other a high five, "YOUR OUT OF TIME!
Despite the fact he was beginning to fade away, he made one last-ditch effort to kill the heroes which Goofy blocked with his shield and Donald aimed his staff at him, "BLIZZARD!"
The ice spell froze the King in his place as Spidey used his webs to disarm the grandfather of his current girlfriend, "Sorry, can't let you swing that around! You could poke someone's eye out with that thing!"
The sword landed near Sora who promptly took the Infinity Stone out of it. Sora whispered, "One down, six to go."
Spider-Man used this as an opportunity to wrap the former king up with his webs in case he tried anything else. Runeard looked at himself as he slowly began to fade away, "So... this is how it ends."
"You'll be fine," Elsa stated, "With your Heartless destroyed, you'll be recompleted. You'll be human again."
"If you think this is over," Runeard glared at them, "I'll take back my Kingdom and I will..."
Sora cut him off, "It is over for you. Dad gave orders to have you arrested for treason and murder. Even the council agreed you went too far and have to answer for your crimes."
"A lifetime sentence," Anna commented, "With no chance of parole. The only reason you're not getting the rope because of dad."
Spider-Man quipped, "But I wouldn't expect a happy father's day card anytime soon!"
"Everything I did," Runeard muttered, "Everything I've done has been for Arendelle."
"For Arendelle?" Elsa raised an eyebrow, "This had never been about Arendelle. You acted out of your own fear of magic."
"And you became the very corruption you stood against. Not only did you ruin the lives of many," Sora stood with his sister, "But you sided with criminals that plan on wiping out half of all life just to kill your own grandchildren."
"You went against everything Arendelle ever stood for. Everything Arendelle ever believed in. And for what? To end all magic with magic?" Anna inquired with a glare of her own. "If you have any honor for our family and for yourself. Do the next right thing. And face up with what you've done. Turn yourself in."
Runeard snarled but looked away knowing as he was truly defeated before fadding away. Just then, the group of heroes hearing Pete growled. They turned to face them as he hopped down to them, "I'll deal with you myself!"
Pete then rolled down several bombs at them. Rex ordered, "Take cover!"
Everyone moved out of the way before they could explode. Spider-Man shot a web line towards one of them and threw it at Pete, "Here! I think you dropped this!"
The bomb exploded upon impact stunning him. Goofy then spun himself at Pete, hitting him several times, "Somebody come quick!"
"I got it!" Donald raised his staff for a lightning strike. Riku followed the attack by preforming his shot lock at him as several balls of light shot out from his Keyblade at hit the villain.
Elsa then casted a wave of a ice at Pete as Anna, Kristoff, and Rex fired several shots. However before any of them could hit, Pete created a shield around him as he laughed, "Pete's invincible!"
Pete continued to laugh as the attacks bounced harmlessly off his shield. Sora gave Spider-Man a shield as he ran behind Pete and smacked the thug's shield from the back, "Take this!"
The shield rolled with Pete inside it as the Web-head shot a web line towards the shield and yanked it toward him as he quipped, "How about we go for a spin!"
Then spun around in air before slamming him on the ground making him drop the shield. Sora and Donald used this to their advantage as they raised their respective weapons, "Flare!"
Just the magic fireworks appeared around them and flew directly at Pete. The fireworks exploded on impact but Pete eventually shook off the attack and went back to his battle stance. He then slammed the ground hard causing the heroes nearby to get sent flying back. Marshmallow caught them and sent them down.
The giant snow monster charged at Pete as the two threw punches at each other. Sora aimed his Keyblade at him, "TAKE THIS! FIRE!"
A giant ball of fire struck Pete's butt causing he screamed out in pain. He tried to put the flames out before get caught in Elsa's ice attack. Sora then used flow motion to slide on the ice before slamming Pete with his Keyblade. He only needed to hit him a few more times before finishing the fight.
Pete dropped the Mind Stone as Sora took it away from him. The thug exclaimed, "You'll pay for this! No one messes with the mighty Pete!"
Spider-Man then proceeded to wrap him up, "So 'mighty' Pete. Other than tricking my friends' grandfather that you were one of his soldiers, why didn't you use the Stone against us?"
Pete blinked as he tried to come out with a excuse before Anna stated, "You forgot you even had it, didn't you?"
"What... course I did... it's just..." Pete tried to lie although he couldn't think of any other excuse before looking away, "I don't need to explain myself to you!"
Everyone rolled their eyes, as they knew the truth. Sora then walked up to them, "Then tell us this! Where are the remaining Infinity Stones! And where are our parents!"
"Hah!" Pete laughed, "I'll never tell that Maleficent gave each of us an Infinity Stone to deal with you! Or the fact the Jafar has... your..." Pete slowly came to a stop when he realized he was telling them everything, "Opps."
Elsa smiled in amusement, "Wow! He really is that dumb."
"I know right!" Sora nodded as Donald and Goofy laughed.
Spider-Man told him, "Well, this should hold you while we wrap up your buddies!"
"C'mon," Rex told then group as he tried to hold back his own laughter, "Let's get the remaining four Infinity Stones."
Everyone turned to leave Pete as he exclaimed, "Hey! Come back!" He struggled to get free, "I ain't done with you yet!"
However, everyone just left Pete there as Anna stated, "Well, maybe we can rescue our parents and get all the remaining Stones."
"Maybe," Rex admitted, "But remember, the Stones come first."
Riku reassured her, "We'll help them if we can."
Anna smiled and gave a grateful nod to him as Kristoff comforted the youngest daughter. Elsa turned to their brother, "So, we go back and try the other way?"
"Yeah," Sora nodded, "There should be another Stone that way!"
"Let's get a move on then!" Rex nodded, "Thanos will get here sooner or later and I prefer we have the all of Stones by then."
Sora nodded in agreement, "Right!"
With that, the group a through the maze before heading over to the area where Sora and Riku defeated Xigbar and Riku Replica. Arriving their they spotted the King and Queen of Arendelle. Anna beamed, "Mom! Dad!"
She was about to run up to them when Sora stopped her, "Wait, Anna! We're not alone!"
Hans walked up to them, Keyblade in hand, "I don't know how you escaped, but you won't take my victory from me."
Riku looked down at Hans's weapon before looking up with a glare, "You've got something of mine! That weapon doesn't belong to you."
Jafar then appeared to Hans's side with a laugh, "On the contrary. He wished for it and I granted the Keyblade to him."
"Maybe so," Riku stated, "But I can still feel the connection to it. It doesn't belong to him. It never has."
Jafar turned to Sora, "You should have kept the Genie on your side. With him, you might've had a better chance. Even if he is only second rate."
"That never stopped us from defeating you before!" Sora pointed out.
"Yeah!" Donald nodded, "And now we're all back together!"
"It's 13 against 2 now," Goofy added.
Rex aimed his blasters at them, "We gotcha outnumbered!"
Hans smirked, "You really think you can beat us?! You still need the lamp to truly stop Jafar and the only way you're getting it is by defeating me."
"Trust me," Anna glared, "It'll be a pleasure taking it from you."
Kristoff tightened his fist as he glared at the Prince of the Southern Isles. Hans continued to smirk, "True, I might have had the Keyblade along as your brother and if we fought, I probably wouldn't stand a chance..." He then pulled out the Soul Stone, "But with this..."
He clutched the Infinity Stone in his hand as he increased in power as he finished, "You're no match for me!"
"Sora! Anna! Elsa!" Queen Induna called out to her children, "Get out of here!"
"So..." Anna turned to Sora, "What's the plan?"
"Donald, Goofy, Elsa, Spider-Man, and I will distract Jafar," Sora answered, "Riku and the rest of you... get the lamp and the Stone from Hans."
Kristoff's eyes narrowed with determination, "Got it!"
Riku roared as his Keyblade clashed with his old Keyblade. The two struggled as Jafar blasted magic from his staff at the group just as Elsa created an ice wall to defend them from the attack. The wall only lasted about half a minute before falling to Jafar's power.
Sora and the others found themselves dodging Jafar's attacks as Rex drew aimed his blasters at Hans and fired upon. Hans was able to push Riku off of him as he deflected the attacks with his Keyblade.
Unaware to Hans through, Riku was pulling off an old trick he used against Sora on the Islands. He flipped himself to his feet, kicking Hans in the chest in the process. This caught the Prince off balance as Riku smacked him several times with his Keyblade.
Anna turned to the only non-fighter in the group, "Olaf, can you go free our parents."
"Okay," Olaf beamed as he ran past the fight happily humming, 'In Summer.' He finally appeared in front of the King and Queen of Arendelle as he greeted them, "Hi, Sora's, Elsa's, and Anna's mom and dad! I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs!"
Agnarr and Iduna stared at Olaf flabbergasted.
"Agnarr?" Iduna spoke up carefully.
"Yes, Dear?" The king asked while they both kept staring at the snowman.
"Is that the snowman our children made during their childhood?" Iduna asked.
"I... I do believe it is," He slowly nodded without removing eyes from the snowman.
She followed, "And he's... alive?"
Olaf paused to think before admitting with a big smile, "I... think so!"
After another minute of staring Induna added, "Nothing make sense anymore."
"I think we're use to that by now." Agnarr responded.
Olaf told to them, "It's okay! I'm here to rescue you!"
He then walked up to the magic chains that held them before finding the lock. Olaf nodded, "Very interesting... okay... I know what to do..."
He raised his hand as he tried to focus. As the King and Queen continued to stare, the latter asked, "Olaf? What are you doing?"
"Trying to summon a giant key like Sora," Olaf answered still focusing thinking a Keyblade will appear to him, "I've seen him do this all the time."
Rex and Kristoff happened to be near them overhearing to conversation. Rex facepalmed himself as Agnarr turned to them, "He can't summon one, can he?"
"Not really," Kristoff sighed as he shook his head, "No."
Marshmallow turned to Anna as she shrugged, "Hey, I just didn't want him getting hurt."
With that, they continued focusing on the battle. Spider-Man shot several web shots at Jafar. The evil genie simply raised his staff to send the web shots back at him. Spider-Man managed to avoid most of the shots but his foot got stuck to the ground, "Great! Just great!"
He spider-senses went off as Jafar blew a wave of fire towards him. Elsa quickly leaped in the way, "Look out!"
She then created a shield of them from the attack. Spider-Man gave her a grateful look under his mask as she smiled at him. At the same time, Sora hopped on to Goofy's shield and he gave Sora a boost in the air, then in mid air, the former threw the latter to Jafar as the Captain of King Mickey's royal knights pushed the villain back. Jafar blasted magic at Goofy but quickly blocked it with his shield.
Elsa used this distraction to free Spider-Man from his own webs. She froze the webbing before breaking it. Spidey gave Elsa a nod, "Be careful."
Elsa smiled and nodded, "You too."
With that, the went around the nearly melted ice wall to go after the former royal vizier of Agrabah. However, this didn't go unnoticed by Hans who's eyes narrowed in anger.
Sora changed his Star Seeker Keyblade into his duel arrow guns before firing magic arrows at Jafar. The evil genie laughed as he retreated into the flames, "You may be a Prince but your still a Street Rat in my eyes!"
"And you're still the power hungry mad man we stopped in Agrabah!" Sora glared at his old foe, "And we'll do it again!"
Spider-Man landed besides Sora, "Now come and fight us, you cowardly snake!"
"A snake am I," Jafar questioned with a hiss as he slowly moved towards them. "Well let's see how sssssnake-like I can be!"
Even as he had spoken, Jafar's appearance had begun changing, starting with his face and how his tongue stuck out a little when he had hissed, and before anyone knew what was happening, Jafar had transformed into a massive cobra, much to everyone's horror. Seeing this new transformation, Elsa shot a small look at Spidey, "Why did you have to give him that idea?! You know I hate snakes?! Especially after meeting one on that jungle world!"
Spider-Man shrugged, "It was meant to be an insult, how was I supposed to know he could do that?!"
That was as far as the argument when as they soon found themselves, diving aside in order to avoid being hit by Jafar's massive body or being chomped down on by his massive mouth of teeth that were no doubt laced with poison.
Jafar lunged at Sora with another chomp but the Keyblade's chosen dodged as he switched to his Oathkeeper Keyblade and slashed at the giant cobra. This caused Jafar to scream in pain before going back to attack.
As Sora, Donald, Goofy, Elsa, and Spider-Man fought Jafar, Riku's team continued to fight the Powered up Hans. Anna shot Hans in the leg causing him to wince in pain, before swinging his blade at Anna. She narrowly avoided the strike as Kristoff takes Hans away, "Get away from her!"
Anna gasped, "Kristoff?!"
Kristoff struggled as he tried to make Hans let go of his Keyblade. Riku and Rex soon joined him as the latter tried to get either Jafar's lamp or the Power Stone away from him. Unfortunately, Hans blasted them away from him as Marshmallow went to attack.
With a quick movement, Hans sliced off Marshmallow's leg as the giant snow monster complained, "Not again!"
Anna looked around the fallen Keyblade's before her before picking one up as Hans prepared to finish off Kristoff only to be intercepted but Anna as she blocked the attack with the fallen Keyblade. Hans turned his attention back to Anna as he swung he Keyblade at her.
She blocked it three times before Hans cut the Keyblade in half. Anna groaned, "Great! Guess this thing has been powerless for eons!"
Hans raised his Keyblade to strike at her when all of a sudden, Anna raised her hands creating a light shield which protected her and sent Hans back. The youngest princess stared at her hands, "Oh, yeah. I forgot I could do that."
After all, she, Elsa, and Tiana did use their power as Princesses of Heart to help Sora and Genie stop the Shadow Man in New Orleans. Hans recovered as he used a healing spell on himself, "Heal!"
Green light covered him as he recover from his injuries. Rex quickly went back to the action by throwing a thermal detonator at the Prince of the Southern Isles. Hans thinking it was a droid popper merely smirked, "Seriously? I'm not even carrying any technology on..."
Just then, the grenade exploded knocking him back before he could finish. At the same time, Donald leaped back to avoid Jafar's chomp as he raised his staff, "I got it!"
Lightning struck the giant cobra who struggled off the attack but it was as distraction so Sora could blast him with the magic launcher which knocked the evil genie back a little.
Elsa then fired several icy blasts as she tried to fix Marshmallow's leg. The giant serpent avoid the Snow Queen's attack as she restored Marshmallow's leg. She briefly glanced at Olaf, "How's it going, Olaf?!"
Olaf was still trying to summon a Keyblade, "Hold on... I think I almost got it..."
Elsa sighed as she suggested, "Maybe you should try something else to..."
"ELSA!" Her mother gasped, "LOOK OUT!"
Just then, Elsa found herself wrapped in Jafar's coils. Sora gasped, "Oh no!"
Elsa struggled to get free as Jafar prepared to finish her only for Spider-Man to swing kick Jafar in the face, "Hey! That is no way to hold a lady! Let alone a future Queen! You could get a restraining order placed on you!"
Jafar hissed in annoyance, "You stay out of this!"
"Awwwww!" Spider-Man retorted, "But I like being included!"
"Me too!" Olaf beamed."
Elsa winced as the coils tightened, "Olaf! Focus!"
Olaf then remembered, "Oh, right!" He simply removed his carrot noise as he started to use it to pick the lock, "I'll get you guys out of here in a second!"
"Um... Olaf..." The Queen stated with concern, "These are magic chains. There's no way you can pick the lock with your..." Just then, Olaf unlocked the chains, free Angarr and Iduna in the progress as she finished in shock, "Noise..."
"That should not have work." Her husband added.
"I did it!" Olaf beamed, "You're saved!"
Riku clashed blades with Hans as he stated, "Maybe you should focus on getting them out in a middle of battle!"
Olaf beamed, "Oh! Right!"
Iduna blinked as recognized the silver hair boy fighting the twelfth son of the Southern Isles. She saw him when he appeared before them. She whispered, "Is that Riku?"
Olaf took their hands, "Come on! It's not safe here!"
Jafar noticed the King and Queen of Arendelle were trying to escape with the help of the snowman. The giant serpent lunged at them, however, Spider-Man saved them right a the last possible second. Agnarr turned to the masked hero, "And who are you?"
"Just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. I'm a bit of a hero where I'm from and I thought I'd help." He quipped as he put them near the entrance of that part of the maze as he quietly dropped the bombshell, "And I may be dating your eldest daughter."
"Oh thank y..." The King was about to thank the hero until he heard that last bit, "Wait, what?!"
Spider-Man then swung away to help Elsa before he could explain as he muttered to himself, "I hope I don't get drawn and quartered for this."
Just before he could though, his spider-sense went off and he found himself avoiding dark fire. He turned to see it came from Hans, who recently broke his attack from Riku, "Look! I get you probably hate me as much as the next guy but unless you want to call off your 'servant' and settle it, man to spider, my hands are a little busy at the moment!"
"You know, the only man I hate more than Sora is you!" Hans glared as he went in to strike Spider-Man.
"What for? Is this because I shot you to the other side of the bridge in Kuzco's Empire?" Spider-Man quipped as he dodged his strikes, "Or when I 'accidentally' pulled the wrong lever on the same world?"
"Besides that," Hans snarled, "When it was all over, I knew if I was going to ever rule Arendelle I would have to marry someone after we killed Sora. Elsa was the best option but it didn't seem like anyone was going to get a chance with her then Anna seemed more than willing to but then you came along and won Elsa's heart! If I tried to do anything to her, you'd stop it and you would end up being King! What does she even see in you, Parker?!"
Spider-Man's eyes widened under his mask as Hans knew his secret identity, so he tried to play it off, "Parker? You mean that kid who used to take pictures for me? What about him?"
"Don't play dumb with me!" Hans glared, "The moment you joined the group I learned that Peter Parker happened to disappear from his world! I couldn't have cared less until Anna admitted you and Elsa had feelings for each other!"
Anna winced in shame at that as Kristoff gave her a reassuring look, "It's not your fault."
"Still, I will become king," Hans smirked, "Once we deliver the Infinity Stones to Thanos, he'll wipe out your girlfriend and her family and I was too late to save them from Arendelle's enemies. And I was able to say my vows to Anna before that happened."
"No one in their right mind will believe you," Spider-Man crossed his arms as he stood on the side of the maze wall, "Deeping if you survive the snap."
"Please, I'm working with Thanos," Hans laughed, "I even retrieved the Infinity Gauntlet for him. He and Maleficent will keep their promises after all I've done."
Spider-Man shook his head, "You sure? The guy called the Mad Titan for a reason."
Riku spoke up, "Don't bother trying to convince him. I once walked the same path he walks, he's too drunk in the darkness to listen to any sort of reason. Or that fact that both to Maleficent, Thanos, and even his so-called servant is nothing but a pawn to them."
Hans's eyes narrowed in anger as lunged at both Riku and Spider-Man with Keyblade in hand. He blasted Spider-Man with dark fire as he dodged the attacks as he and Riku once again clashed blades. Spider-Man turned to see Elsa was still struggling to get free as Sora, Donald, and Goofy were distracting Jafar so he wouldn't kill her. He called out, "ELSA! REMEMBER HOW COLD-BLOODED REPTILES ARE! JAFAR'S NO DIFFERENT!"
Elsa stopped struggling as her eyes widened in realization. She then just let it go and started to freeze the coils Jafar trapped her in. Jafar began to screech in pain making him release the Snow Queen. As she began to fall, Spider-Man quickly caught her as he got it to safety. He asked her with concern, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah," Elsa nodded as she breathed heavily, "Just might need a moment to breathe..."
Spider-Man's spider-sense went off as he looked behind him, "You might not have that chance."
Elsa looked behind them as her eyes widened as Jafar transformed from his cobra form into his genie form as he declared, "Enough! It's time I rid all of you once and for all! Then I can focus my full attention on that Street Rat Aladdin!" He then chuckles, "If he survives the snap that is..."
Elsa's eyes widened, "Please tell me we've got the lamp!"
Riku called out as he pushed against Hans's weapon, "Working on it!"
Hans smirked until the recovered Marshmallow smacked him away from behind making him drop his Keyblade. Riku caught it as he glared at the Prince. With both the Way to Dawn and Braveheart in his hands, he began smacking them into the Prince until he dropped both the Power Stone and the lamp. Anna caught Jafar's lamp as she called out, "HEY UGLY!"
Jafar turned to the Princess of Heart in confusion as his eyes widened in horror, "No..."
She raised the lamp towards him as she declared, "BACK TO THE PRISON OF YOUR OWN MAKING!"
"NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOO!" Jafar screamed as he was once again pulled back into the lamp. No matter how hard he tried, he could not escape the lamp's pull until he was once again trapped in his lamp.
"Genie was right. Phenomenal cosmic power..." Anna smirked, "Itty bitty living space."
Riku threw the Way to Dawn at Hans only for the prince to catch it. His eyes widened as he saw Anna with Jafar's lamp and the Power Stone lying on the ground. Hans made a dash for the Stone only to have Spider-Man yank it away and to be blocked off by Elsa's ice magic. He glared at the power couple, "I'm not afraid of you two."
"It's not us you should be afraid of," Elsa smirked, "It's my overprotective brother that you should be worried about."
Hans blinked in confusion until he saw Sora flying above him with the Ultimata Weapon in his hands, "Hans... remember what I told you back in the jungle?"
Sora had his shot lock locked on him as his Keyblade began to glow with light. Hans's eyes widened in horror as he muttered, "Oh... Son of a Nobody."
Sora then threw the ball of light at Hans create a huge explosion of light and when the light died down, Hans lied there groaning in defeat as Spider-Man webbed him up. Spider-Man turned to Sora, "Remind me never to get on your bad side."
Sora smirked only to be hugged by his mother not long after as she pulled Anna and Elsa in the same hug, "Are you three alright? Are you hurt?"
He sighed as he nodded, "Yeah."
"We're fine, mom," Elsa added.
Anna muttered, "Don't we have this backwards?"
"Good." She smiled before glaring as she grabbed all three of her children's ears, "Then what were you knuckleheads thinking?!"
All three winced in pain as their mother dragged them to their father, Spider-Man muttered, "I take it back... remind me not to get on her bad side."
"She's the Queen," Kristoff whispered, "That should be a given."
All three siblings was forced to follow their mother as they stated in pain, "Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow..."
She finally realized them when she finally brought them to their father, "You all ran away from home! With no message or note! You could have all died and we wouldn't even know it!"
"To be fair," Sora muttered, "We didn't exactly have a choice..."
The didn't exactly soften the blow as she continued to glare, "I know you're worried about Kairi! But that's no excuse for leaving your own world without a trace! And you took your sisters with you!"
Riku cleared his throat as he walked up to his best friend's parents, "Your Majesty. There's a lot more to it than that..."
The Queen of Arendelle turned to the young Keyblade Master as he explained, "As you may already know that Maleficent plans to give Thanos all six of the Infinity Stones and he plans to use them to wipe out half of all life in the Universe. However, what you don't know is if we don't use the Stones to free all the worlds trapped inside the Black Box, the whole universe will fall apart as it also contains the remain New Seven Hearts."
"What?" Iduna gasped.
Sora nodded, "It's true. The reason why the GummiPhone didn't work when I tried to call the others. Many of the worlds from the Keyblade War... the one before the one my friends and I fought in... including Arendelle are trapped in the same box both Maleficent and the Organization were after."
"And if we don't free them soon," Rex walked up to them as he removed his helmet, "It could mean the end of everything we ever knew."
Iduna blinked before asking her husband, "Honey, what do you think about all of this?" However, she didn't get a response, "Agnarr? Honey?"
Her husband was frozen on the spot, metaphorically speaking. Sora asked in concern, "Dad? You okay?"
"Elsa... dating..." He muttered to himself.
Elsa turned to her boyfriend in confusion, as he recalled, "Yeah, after I saved them from Jafar... I may have told them that we were..."
The first in line to the throne nodded, "Yeah... that might do it..." She also reassured them, "It's okay if you show you identity to them. They kept my powers a secret for all of my life."
Peter removed his mask as Elsa introduced, "Mom. Dad. This is Peter Parker. The Spider-Man." She slightly blushed as she smiled, "He's my boyfriend."
Iduna slowly smiled as she shook the young man's hand, "Oh... well... It's nice to meet you... Peter..." She told him, "Forgive my husband. To be quite honest with you, we didn't think Elsa would ever have a... that kind of relationship. I trust you've kept her safe."
"Yes," Peter nodded, "I never left her side."
"Good." The Queen nodded before elbowing her husband, "Say something!"
"Oh! Yes!" Agnarr nodded finally snapping out of it, "Very good!" He then rubbed the back of his head, "So... um... where did you two meet?"
"I hate to be that guy," Sora cut them off, "But we do have a universe to save so we might want to put this on hold."
"Oh, right." The King nodded, "So... what now?"
Anna turned to Spider-Man, "You have the Stone?"
Spider-Man nodded as he tossed Sora the Power Stone. Sora caught it, "That's three now! We just need the remaining three!"
Anna then held out Jafar's lamp, "So, what do we do with Jafar?"
"We could always force him to grant us wishes," Kristoff suggested as everyone turned to him in shock before he burst out laughing, "I'm just kidding! No one in their right mind should trust that guy!"
"We've got to make sure Maleficent doesn't get his hands on him again," Riku stated, "We've got enough things to worry about."
"SORA! RIKU!"
Everyone turned to see Naminè running up towards them as Riku asked, "Naminè? What are you doing here? Is everyone safe on the GummiShip?"
"Yes," She nodded, "But you need to hurry! Ava doing her best to hold up against Thanos but he's wearing her down."
Donald gasped, "King Mickey!"
"We've gotta hurry!" Goofy exclaimed.
Iduna turned to the duo, "I'm guess you two must be Donald and Goofy."
They gave a quick bow as she turned to Naminè, "And you must be Naminè."
Olaf beamed, "And I'm Olaf! And this is my little brother Marshmallow!"
Marshmallow waved to her as their mother gave Elsa a look. Elsa sighed, "It's a long story."
She nodded as she turned to the remaining group, "I don't think I know the rest of you."
"Name's Rex. Captain." Rex saluted the King and Queen before gesturing, "The blonde is Kristoff and the reindeer is Sven. Your kids recruited us for their mission."
"At ease," She told the Clone, "Okay, now that introductions are out of the way, we should get moving."
Anna handed Naminè the lamp, "Hey, can you keep this safe? We've got a really powerful bad guy in there!"
"You mean Jafar," She asked as she recognized the lamp from Sora's memories, "Of course." She then turned to the defeated Hans, "What about him?"
Everyone turned to the defeated prince as Spider-Man nodded, "Yeah, what about him? He has Riku's original Keyblade and he knows my secret identity."
"I might be able to take my old Keyblade back from him," Riku admitted, "But it would take some time. Time we can't waste now."
"Okay," Spider-Man nodded, "What about my secret identity? What's to stop him from going after my Aunt or my friends?"
"When everything is over," Naminè spoke up, "I take wipe his memory."
"You can do that?" Elsa asked her in shock.
"Yes," Kairi's former Nobody answered, "I did so once to your brother long ago. I'm sure he must have told you my story."
While, the King and Queen were confused of what she was talking about, everyone else nodded in understanding. However, Sora told her, "You should probably do that after Jafar's secure and and Riku takes away his Keyblade."
She nodded as she turned to Iduna and Agnarr, "It'll probably be safer if you two came with me."
"No, we're not leaving our children," Agnarr shook his head, "It's not safe here."
"Mom. Dad." Anna spoke up, "We're not kids anymore. We just traveled to many worlds collecting Infinity Stones before the Black Order. And we just defeated our grandfather's Nobody, Pete, an all powerful genie, and my ex-boyfriend."
"Wait," Agnarr blinked as he turned to Hans, "Ex-boyfriend?" He then realized why Sora went hard on said Prince before turning to Anna, "Anna... what did we tell you about strangers."
"Okay, okay..." Anna sighed, "I learned my lesson! I promise I won't trust someone like Hans again!"
"Seriously though," Spider-Man spoke up, "We have a better chance of stopping Maleficent and Thanos than you do. And we'll make sure nothing happens to your children."
Kristoff nodded as he stood beside Anna, "You have our word."
"No offense to either of you but we're coming anyways," Agnarr stated, "Even if we can't do anything, we can at least be there and pull you out if things get too rough."
Elsa sighed as she nodded, "Then we better hurry."
"Naminè," Riku told the girl, "Head back to the ship, call if Thanos is heading our way."
She nodded as she took the lamp away as everyone else headed through the maze. Sora told them, "Careful, there is a puzzle to this one. I know how to solve it just leave it too me."
Everyone nodded as Sora knew which gates to open and to close as everyone traveled through the maze. Once Sora closed the last door and opened the main gate to the next part of the maze, Anna had to admit, "That was kinda fun... if we weren't in the middle of a war now."
They then came to a crossroads as Iduna couldn't help but wonder, "So, where to now?"
"Well, I can sense there are two stones to our left," Sora admitted, "And to our right, there's at least one."
"So, should we do the same thing as last time?" Goofy wondered, "Go to the area with the most Infinity Stones first?"
"No, the last time it was just Pete and he's not that smart," Sora stated, "I gotta good feeling that Maleficent's on that end and Thane could be there too."
Elsa nodded understanding, "So, right it is."
"Does that mean we'll have to face Vanitas again?" Anna asked.
Sora nodded, "Yeah, and he might bring out some Unversed to try to stop us so be careful."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Even the King and Queen knew that Vanitas aided Hans in their capture so they knew he was dangerous. They walked on the right path where they entered the area. This was the place where Sora, Ven, and Aqua faced off against Vanitas and free Terra from Xehanort's grasps. It seemed somewhat fitting that Vanitas was waiting for them. He smirked under his mask, "Ah, you all made it. And here I was worried we wouldn't have our family reunion."
Iduna muttered in confusion, "Family reunion?" She turned to her husband, "Do you have any idea what he's talking about?"
Agnarr shook his head as Sora glared at Vanitas, "Why do you still wear that thing? We both know you don't need it."
Vanitas chuckled, "Fair enough... I supposed there's no need to keep our parents out of the loop," With that Vanitas removed his mask revealing his face, "Brother."
"Sora?!" The King and Queen gasped as they looked between their son and Vanitas noticing the similarities.
Anna whispered to her sister in shock, "Wow... he really does look like an evil version of Sora."
"Oh, no need to lose your heads. I'm sure my brother has mentioned how he joined his heart with a boy named Ventus when he was younger," Vanitas explained, "I was Ventus's darkness but the old man removed me from his heart. I didn't have a face until Sora offered to replace the piece of his heart that was taken away. So, it's no wonder why he and I look exactly the same."
"And we've got an evil older brother as a result," Anna muttered, "One our own parents didn't even know about."
"If you really see us as family, then why side with darkness," Iduna wondered, "And not by our side."
"Sora once asked me the same question during the Keyblade War, mother," Vanitas chuckled at that reaction, "To answer your question, it's because I am darkness. And I do stand by your side. I am the shadow that my brother cast. How much closer could I be?"
"Vanitas, please, if you claim to be our son, then please listen to reason," Agnarr tried to reason with the darkness of Sora and Ventus, "You're being used by Xehanort, Maleficent, Thanos, and the mastermind behind all this. If they succeed, they drag the worlds into darkness."
"Oh, I know..." Vanitas admitted much to their shock, "I knew people like the old man used me to accomplish their missions to drag the worlds into the darkness to start again from scratch... but it benefits me in the long run. Remember, I am darkness and I feed on Negativity. How much more negativity can there possibly be if the worlds fell. I'll get strong and strong until I'm my own master and heck, I even clash with our brother Ventus to be whole. No one would be able to stop me again."
He then revealed the Reality Stone, "So... until then I'll serve as all my 'masters' duke it out for control of the worlds... then my dream will become a reality."
Vanitas then grabbed the Stone as he began to use its power to transform his Keyblade. Soon, the Void Gear looked like the X-blade, he smirked, "It might not be the real deal, but to you... it'll certainly feel like it."
Vanitas then went into his battle stance as the heroes did the same. Sora and Vanitas charged at each other as their weapons clashed. Sora then dodged the next swipes of the fake X-blade before hit Vanitas several times with his own Keyblade. However, after another strike, he vanished from Sora's sight as he reappeared above Sora, "Gotcha!"
Just as he was about to strike Sora from behind, he was kicked away by Spider-Man, "No, you don't! I got you!"
Vanitas tumbled from the kick before quickly recovering and swung his blade at Spider-Man. As the hero dodged the attacks as he quipped, "What is with you people and very large swords?! I mean, I don't get how you manage to use it to fight!"
Vanitas continued trying to attack Spider-Man until Sora rushed in with the Hero's Origin Keyblade as he transformed it into its shield. Sora blocked Vanitas next swing from hitting Spidey before countering with a giant fist knocking him back. Elsa then created ice on the ground beneath the villain's feet causing him to slip and crash into the wall. However, Vanitas simply laughed maniacally as Spider-Man groaned, "I hate it when the bad guys start laughing. It's never a good sign."
"This should be more entertaining than I thought this fight would be," Vanitas grinned.
Just then, the winds grew as hundreds of fallen Keyblades were picked up from the ground and flew through the air. Sora's evil doppelgänger ran to the Keyblades before hopping on one of them as he surfed through the air with the Keyblades. Anna just stared as she stated, "Wow! Just... wow!"
"Took the words right out of my mouth," Spider-Man nodded in agreement.
Rex ordered as he aimed his blasters, "Knock him out of the sky!"
Anna, Kristoff, and Rex began shooting at the villain, but he was soaring so fast it was hard to get a precise hit on him. Vanitas the casted balls of ice at them. Elsa, however, intercepted them as she redirected the ice magic back at him. Sora turned to her in shock, "Did you know you could do that?"
"Well..." Elsa shrugged, "It is ice magic. So, I assumed I could."
Donald than ran in and aimed his staff at him, "Fire!"
Several balls of fire were launched at him. Vanitas outraced the balls of fire as he went to the center of the area creating a vortex of fallen Keyblades surrounding him. He then sent tons of fallen Keyblades coming at them. Everyone dodged the incoming weapons as Rex, Anna, and Kristoff continued trying to shoot Vanitas but the Keyblades surrounding him made it difficult to get a decent shot. Riku quickly used his shotlock to send balls of dark fire at the dark Keyblade Wielder doing some actual damage.
Sora and Riku then gave each other a nod as they knew one way they could break through his defense. Sora and Riku stood side by side as they combined their power. Just then, two halves of Keyblades came in and became one as light shined from them. With a mighty battle cry, used the Keyblade to cut through Vanitas defense knocking out of the attack. The two Keyblade Wielders summoned their respective weapons as they went to engage him once more.
Vanitas retreated into the ground as a dark shadow chased after them before he popped out of the ground striking the duo. He then retreated back into the ground as the shadow proceeded to chase after the others. Rex ordered the others, "Move! Evasive action!"
Kristoff threw Anna on Sven before hopping on himself as he told the reindeer, "Run Sven!"
The reindeer ran from the shadow as Marshmallow charged into to try to fight it only for Vanitas to strike him and retreat back into the ground before heading to Elsa. Thankfully, Spider-Man arrived just in time and moved Elsa to safety just as Vanitas popped of the ground to strike with magic balls of fire. Elsa then created icicles of the ground in an attempt to stop the attack. Vanitas went of the alert as he barely avoid the spiky landing.
Donald raised his staff, "Heal!"
Everyone who was caught in the attack was healed by Donald's magic. Vanitas exclaimed, "Enough! I'm ending this!"
He then aimed his Keyblade at Sora and fired a beam of light at Sora. Sora did the same to Vanitas as their lights clashed. They seemed to be even matched until Riku, Elsa, and Anna joined them.
Riku aimed his Keyblade at Vanitas firing his own beam of light as Elsa and Anna used their light to increase their power which overwhelmed the false X-blade. Vanitas was knocked back and defeated as he fell to his knee and the X-blade reverted back to the Void Gear. Vanitas chuckled as he stated, "Good fight."
He then tossed the Reality Stone to Sora, who caught it, he picked up his mask and placed it back on him. Vanitas shrugged, "So, you won... for now. But I think we all know how it'll all end. With Thanos collecting all six Infinity Stones and the worlds dragging to darkness. Either way, I win in the end."
"That remains to be seen," Sora replied with his own glare, "If Thanos does manage to get all the Stones, we'll stop him and the Master of Masters."
"Who are you trying to convince?" Vanitas smirked under his mask, "Me or them?"
He then escaped through a Corridor of Darkness. Spider-Man groaned, "Why do I get the feeling we haven't see the last of him?"
"If he does come back," Rex answered, "We'll be ready for him."
Everyone then turned to the King and Queen of Arendelle, who still looked shocked at what or who they saw, Sora walked up to them, "Mom? Dad? Are you okay?"
"He... he looked just like you. And he called you brother," Agnarr muttered.
"Yeah," Sora nodded, "I don't fully understand Vanitas myself. If he's actually family or..."
"If he was family," Elsa answered with her arms crossed, "He'd be fighting alongside us to stop the darkness."
"Still," Induna comforted her husband, "If we had known about him..."
"There's nothing you could have done or known." Riku walked up to her, "From what we learned from Ventus, it happened when Sora and Elsa were still in your womb. And none of us had the means to get to your world. Not even Master Xehanort knew."
"And vice versa," Sora answered, "Unless you had access to all six Infinity Stones, you had no means to get to any of the worlds outside the box."
"Well, if you're that upset about Vanitas," Goofy spoke up, "You always have Roxas."
They turned to Goofy in confusion, "Roxas?"
"Yeah. He's Sora's Nobody," Goofy answered as Sora faced palmed himself.
"His... Nobody?" Agnarr was shocked, "That's crazy! That would mean at one point Sora would have been a Heartless but that never happened!"
"Actually, dad, it did happen," Sora admitted. His parents turned to him in shock as Sora explained, "It's a long story but in short. Kairi's heart was trapped inside of mine, I freed her heart, I briefly became a Heartless, and Roxas came as a result."
"You never mentioned that part before," Iduna crossed her arms.
"How do you think I was supposed to say it?" Sora asked, "You freaked up whenever you learned I was captured by pirates!"
"Of course, we freak out," His mother answered, "We're your parents! We care about you!"
"Mom," Elsa spoke up, "I think you just proved Sora's point of how complicated it was to talk about it to you and dad."
Iduna frowned as Sora apologized, "I'm sorry. I would have told you eventually. All you really need to know right now, that Roxas is a good guy with his own heart and soul."
Anna beamed, "Yeah, you pretty much have triplets instead of twins... and you didn't have to go through the joy of childbirth for him!"
Iduna slowly began to smile, as Agnarr sighed, "Well... I guess your mother did get her wish for more children..."
"Don't be like that," Iduna turned to him, "We both know you wanted another son in the family."
Agnarr blushed in embarrassment as Donald smirked, "He's Sora's father alright."
"We should hurry," Rex spoke up, "We managed to get four of the six back from the enemy but we still need the other two. And we need to rescue Thane as well."
"Thane?" Agnarr asked, "Who's that?"
"He's a friend of ours," Elsa answered, "He's protected us from the villains even if he did gave up the Stones to do it."
"Then we better move then if we want to save him," Iduna nodded as everyone turned to head to the next part of the maze...
Earlier, Ava raised her Keyblade as she threw another blow against the Mad Titan. However, Thanos simply smirked as he caught the attack with his bare hands. However, magic chains wrapped around Thanos as Aqua held him back.
Ava let go of her Keyblade as it vanished in his hands. She then resummoned it as she told the others, "Hit him with everything you've got!"
Mickey and Roxas charged up their light attacks as Ava did the same. Thanos grinned, "Bring it!"
All three standing Keyblade Wielders exclaimed, "ULTIMA!"
So, all three spells of light struck Thanos as he roared in pain...
From a distance, Thane and Maleficent watched as the battle raged on. Maleficent smirked, "They're lasting longer than I thought they would... no matter, your father will be victorious and you will stand by his side."
Thane flinched at those words, the thought of it made him want to throw up. Still, he knew that wasn't the reason why he came. He knew his father would kill him the moment he laid eyes on him.
He knew he his true purpose was to stop Thanos and the darkness for good. All because the Master of Masters told him so. Though it would mean the ends of the worlds as he knew, he also knew all the people he loved would survive to be a part of the new world. One without darkness.
Thane also knew his friends wouldn't understand at first either so that's why he gave the Stones to Maleficent. At least for the moment, he hoped they'd be safe inside the box. He should have known they find another way out. He knew they did whatever they did to get the Stones back and save him and their parents.
He hoped it never came to this, he just hoped, when the time was right, he wouldn't hurt them too much. Just then, they saw flashes of light come where Vanitas was. Maleficent turned and raised an eyebrow, "It would seem your friends managed to defeat my allies. I shall deal with them myself. You guard the Time Stone until your father arrives."
Maleficent then made her way to the area where she would battle the heroes as Thane opened his palm and revealed the Time Stone. The Master's words were in his head, "You know what you need to do..."
Thane closed his eyes and he prepared for what came next...
Just then, Sora and the others ran into the next area, Sora recognized the area all too well. It was the place where Roxas made his grand return and he was able to reunite with Axel and Xion. However, this was also the place where Xemnas kidnapped Kairi leading to the current events of his journey.
Maleficent appeared before them as everyone went into their battle stance. Donald glared, "Maleficent!"
The dark fairy grinned, "You are too late. Once, Thanos defeats your dear friends, the Stones will be given to him and the worlds will be mine to rule! It's unstoppable."
"We'll stop you!" Sora glared, "After coming this far, there's no way we're going to let that happen!"
"You poor simple fools," Maleficent glared, "You think you defeat me! Me! The mistress of all evil!"
"You know, you said the same thing when Sora first fought you!" Riku reminded the witch with a glare, "He beat you then too!"
"Yeah!" Anna cheered, "And we'll do it again!"
Maleficent replied as she started to cast a spell and revealing the Space Stone, "We shall see!"
Just then, the area was surrounded by thorns caught in the others off from Olaf, Iduna, and Agnarr. The snowman called out, "Good luck, guys!"
Elsa blasted Maleficent with an icy blast only for Maleficent to open a portal in front of her as the blast went through it as it opened on the other side. The future Snow Queen gasped when she thought it was about to hit the others when Sora raised his Keyblade, "REFLECT!"
He created a shield around them and protected the group from Elsa's own attack. She quickly sighed in relief, as the portals closed. Maleficent made her next attack, casting lightning upon the group. Everyone began to avoid the lightning strikes as Riku went in to attack Maleficent.
However, Maleficent opened a portal and instead of attacking her, he ended up knocking into Sora. He quickly apologized, "Sorry!"
"Meteors of heaven," Maleficent raised her staff as she cast her next spell, "Unleash thy fury!"
Just the giant meteors came flying at them. Everyone found themselves dodging the meteors sent flying at them. Sora and Donald hid behind Goofy and his shield as the captain of the royal knights deflected the large meteors as they sly made their way to Maleficent before they all began to charge at her. The attack caught the villain off guard but she quickly recovered as Sora and Donald decided to turn the tables on her, "Meteor!"
Just then, meteors began to fall up Maleficent as she smirked as used the Space Stone to turn the attack on the attackers. Sora and Donald found themselves pelted by their own attack.
Rex dashed to the side of Maleficent as he used his twin blasters to fire upon her only for her to use the Stone to turn the attack of Rex. Riku came in for the save as he deflected the blaster bolts as the Clone Captain was starting to get annoyed, "Oh, C'mon! Everything we throw at her she turns it back on us!"
Spider-Man eyes widened under his mask. He had fought a supervillain who did the same thing on him. Until he had an idea that he used to beat the Spot. He closed his eyes and focused on his Spider-Sense as Maleficent created a portal ready to use it to attack the superhero only for him to strike first and punch her in the face as Spider-Man quipped, "Bet you didn't see that coming!"
Maleficent scowled in annoyance as she created another portal to attack Spider-Man only for her to get punched in the face again. She tried again only for the same result to happen. Anna gasped in amazement, "Whoa!"
"How'd you do that?!" Kristoff asked in shock.
Elsa then realized, "It's his Spider-Sense. It's telling him when and where to strike."
As Maleficent opened a portal to try to go after someone else, Spider-Man webbed the dark fairy in the eyes blinding her. The Web-Head exclaimed, "Now! While she's blinded!"
Marshmallow charged in and rammed into Maleficent as she was sent flying to Riku. The young Keyblade Master roared as he smacked Maleficent several times with his Keyblade as Sora cast a heal spell to cure himself and his friends' injuries. Elsa glared at the witch as she used her ice powers to force Maleficent back to avoid waves of icicles. Maleficent glared, "I'm not defeated yet."
Maleficent raises her Space Stone into the air and clenches it, using its power to summon Pete, Hans, and Vanitas to her side. All of them were completely covered, as Rex muttered, "Guess she wasn't able to get Jafar back."
"Well, that's one less bad guy we have to worry about," Spider-Man nodded in agreement before commenting, "What too afraid to face us one your own."
"You may have defeated us before," Hans glared, "But together we can defeat you."
Spider-Man quipped, "The Sinister Six tried that before on me, Prince Charming! That didn't work out either!"
Anna smirked, "We can kick your butts all day!"
"We won't let you win," Riku agreed, "Not after everything we went through."
Sora smirked, "We gotcha outnumbered! And once we stopped you! We'll save our friends."
"Including Thane," Maleficent smirked, "You do realize he's the son of Thanos after all."
"Blood doesn't make family," Sora glared, "It's the ties to the heart... the connections we have with each other... that what makes a family!"
Elsa nodded as her eyes narrowed with determination, "And ours will stop you and save everyone we love! Along with countless others!"
Sora smirked, "So... care to make it easy on yourselves and give the remaining stones back?!"
The villains responded by charging at them as they declared, "NEVER!"
The heroes charged back in what would appear to be their final clash between good and evil were seconds away, time stopped for them. This left Angarr, Iduna, and Olaf left in confusion as the snowman asked, "Um... why did everyone stop? Was there a game of freeze tag I didn't know about?"
"I..." The Queen gasped, "I don't know."
"Wait," Agnarr realized, "If Sora had the Reality, Power, Mind, and Soul Stones. And Maleficent has the Space Stone. Then who has the Time Stone."
"That would be me, your majesty..." They turned to see Thane walked up to them as he used his one of his hand to destroy the thorns in his way. He has done this all while using the Time Stone, "I... I didn't wish to see anyone die."
Thane looks at the Time Stone glowing in his right hand as he heard the voices of the past speaking up.
"We gotcha outnumbered! And once we stopped you! We'll save our friends."
"Including Thane? You do realize he's the son of Thanos after all."
"Blood doesn't make family! It's the ties to the heart... the connections we have with each other... that what makes a family!"
"And ours will stop you and save everyone we love! Along with countless others!"
"So it all ends here!"
"My friends are my power!"
Thane walked up to the frozen version of Sora as he told the Keyblade's Chosen, "You were right, Sora. Just because Thanos is my father by blood, does not make him family. And I am not Thanos."
Iduna tried to reach out to him, convince Thane to give the Stones to their son so they could stop Thanos and save the worlds. However, before she could someone broke through the maze, and Thane was struck by an energy blast causing him to drop the Time Stone. Much to the King and Queen's horror, they saw the defeated Keybladers as their attacker walk closer towards the floating Time Stone. That mysterious assailant happened to be Cosmic Threat Number One, the Mad Titan, and the father of Thane. Thanos.
"And you never will be." Thanos grinned, "There is only one."
He then used the Time Stone to resume time, which Hans notices and tosses Thanos the Infinity Gauntlet. Thanos caught it as it adjusted to the size of his hand. Thanos grinned as he raised up his Infinity Gauntlet, which attracts the Time Stone as it begins to pull itself into one of the six open slots of the gauntlet. Then came the Soul Stone. The Reality Stone. The Mind Stone. The Power Stone. And, finally, the Space Stone. All six Infinity Stones have been embedded into the Infinity Gauntlet, completing the circuit, and granting Thanos with unstoppable, infinite power.
The villains grinned as everyone else stared in horror as Thanos declared, "And from this day forth… He. Reigns. SUPREME!"
Thanos then turned to Sora as he grinned at the boy before turning to Maleficent, he used the Space Stone to vanish to another point in the maze as he ordered, "Deal with them. I wish to savor this moment."
Once the Mad Titan was gone Hans grinned, "With pleasure."
Pete cracked his knuckles as he laughed. Sora went into his battle stance as Anna looked confused, "I don't understand. What just happened?"
Maleficent smirked, "We have won... soon, all it will take is a snap of his fingers and you will be no more."
"Don't be so sure, Maleficent," Sora's eyes narrowed, "We're not dead yet and we prepared for this to happen."
"We stop Thanos long before he gets a chance to wipe out half of all life," Captain drew his blasters, "I suggest you surrender."
"You blind yourselves with hope," Maleficent grinned, "Allow me to show you the truth with all the powers of HELL!"
An instant later, a massive tornado of fire erupted around the evil fairy, reaching all the way up to and beyond the ceiling, making the heroes back up in worry for what might emerge from this dark inferno. Elsa turned to Sora, "What is she doing?"
"Ah... we'll... I forgot to mention she can turn herself into a... well..." Sora sheepishly admitted as he stood his ground, "A dragon."
Anna blinked in shock as she wasn't sure she heard him right, "Wait, you mean like fire-breathing dragons from the stories mom would read to us as kids?"
"Yes," Sora nodded as everyone got a good look at the dragon as the smoke cleared, "That's exactly what I mean, Anna."
They were horrified to see that Maleficent had transformed into a massive, snarling, black dragon with evil, greenish-yellow eyes, nearly transparent black wings, and a purple underbelly. When the dragon dropped down onto his four, clawed feet, a massive shockwave ran out from beneath it that pushed the team back against near the wall of the maze, where they saw that the thorns had returned, making any escape attempt impossible for the moment.
Spider-Man muttered, "Where's Iron Fist when you need him?"
Rex commented, "I'm gonna need a bigger gun."
The natives from Arendelle had seen a lot of strange things in their lives. Even more so since Sora had returned but they never imagined they'd ever had to face a dragon... even if Sora mentioned that he had a friend who was a small dragon.
Marshmallow didn't care who or what they were up against as he roared as he charged at Maleficent. The dragon simply took a deep breath and breathed down fire upon the giant snowman. The snow monster's eyes widened as he shields himself and prepared for the impact of the flames knowing its flames would indeed melt him. However, he was saved as Goofy came it and held back the flames with his shield.
Goofy turned to the giant snowman as he gave him a thumbs up. Marshmallow nodded they avoided the dragon's large bites causing them to move back.
Elsa turned to the giant snowman, "Probably shouldn't try that again, big guy."
Sora nodded, "Leave her to me, Donald, and Goofy. We've stopped her before."
Vanitas smirked under his helmet as he walked up to them, "Don't forget. You've got to deal with us too!"
Just as Vanitas had said this Pete and Hans walked up to his side. Sora's eyes narrowed as the others came to join them. Elsa turned to him, "Okay... we'll deal with them and the dragon then."
"Let's do this!" Anna exclaimed as she fired as shot at the villains. Hans deflected the attack with his Keyblade as Spider-Man came in for a swinging kick knocking him back.
Vanitas cast fire magic at the Wall Crawler as the hero quickly dodged as they struck Hans instead. Spider-Man then found himself dodging Maleficent's bites, "Yikes! Guess we weren't a big fan of our last fight!"
Sora smacked Maleficent on the head with his Keyblade before she pulled back and breathed fire on Sora. He was able to dodge the flames in time as Donald and Goofy went to join him. Marshmallow and Pete decided to trade blows with each other as the fight commenced.
Rex, Anna, and Kristoff began shooting at Vanitas was as he deflected all their attacks with his Keyblade. Riku rushed in to engage the mask boy as their Keyblade's clashed against one another.
As the dragon breathed another wave of fire, Sora transformed the Heroes Origin Keyblade to hold back against the flames as he pulled out his GummiPhone and dialed up Ludwig. The Professor answered, "Hello?"
"Professor?" Sora asked, "How's that shield generator coming along?"
"It's almost ready," The Professor proudly stated, "Just needs a few more tweaks before it is ready."
Spider-Man landed next to Sora as he stated, "You might need to hurry though! Thanos has the Stones!"
Drake laughed at his success before taking note at what Spider-Man had told him, "Wait, what? Thanos has the Stones? What do you mean Thanos has the Stones?! He can't have the Stones! My invention isn't ready yet!"
"It exactly what you think it means," Sora added as he pushed back the dragon, "Thanos has the Stones but he's taking time to gloat or something!"
"Okay, okay... just keep him distracted a bit longer, we activate the millisecond it's ready," Ludwig told them before calling out, "Chip! Dale! Forget the coffee break! WE NEED TO FINISH IT NOW OR WE'RE ALL DOOMED!"
From there Ludwig hug up, as Spider-Man groaned, "Keep the bad guy with literal infinite power at his fingertips distracted... like that's supposed to be easy." Just then his Spider-Senses went off, "Uh... you're evil doppelgänger's back!"
Vanitas roared as he charged as Sora switched to his Kingdom Key as he blocked the strikes. Spider-Man then proceeded to kick him back as they avoid Maleficent's next attack.
The black dragon followed Spider-Man's movements before breathing more fire upon him. Spider-Man muttered to himself as he swung to avoid the flames, "Okay, we need to pick off some of the bay guys!"
He looked down to see Marshmallow battling Pete as he decided to make his move. He ducked under her tail before web swinging by her head webbing up her mouth to get a moment to defeat on of their members. He shot a web line under Pete's feet as the snow monster's next attack knocked him over with a thud as Spider-Man quickly proceeded to web him up as the thug complained, "Hey! No fair!"
Maleficent broke free from Spider-Man's webbing before breathing fire upon them both again. However, the flames came short as an ice wall blocked the flames path. Marshmallow and Spidey turned to see Elsa as she did her best to keep the wall up. She told the two, "Move! I can't hold her forever!"
Marshmallow ran to safety from the flames as Spider-Man swung up to Elsa as he pulled her to safety as and Maleficent's fire finally melted through the ice. Rex and Kristoff continued shooting at the Prince of the Southern Isles as he taunted, "You really think you can beat me? You two don't even have any powers!"
He charged at them only for Rex to catch him mid swing and twisted his arm making him drop his weapon as Kristoff kicked him. The Captain of the 501st stated, "We never need any powers to stop scum like you!"
Hans quickly recovered as he reached out to summon the Way to Dawn. It flickered for a bit before finally vanishing, but it never appeared in Hans's hands. It appeared in the hands of its original owner. Hans looked dumbfounded as Riku smiled, "It's good to have you back, old friend."
Hans was completely speechless, without Jafar and the Keyblade, he was now powerless. Just then, he felt someone tap his shoulder. He turned around to see Anna as she glared at him. She then punched him out, she smirked to herself, "That felt good."
Kristoff then yanked her out of the way to avoid Maleficent's dragon claws. Anna blushed at how close she was to Kristoff as she muttered, "Thanks."
Rex aimed his blasters at the dragon as the lasers bounced off her. He groaned in annoyance, "That dragon has tough armor!"
Anna and Kristoff quickly went to join Rex in an attempt to stop the dragon. However, nothing was making a dent in her scales. Maleficent breathed fire upon them as Goofy came in to shield them from the attack.
Donald launched several fireballs that Maleficent, which made her back off the four as she went after the duck.
Marshmallow in the meantime was going after Vanitas as he swung his fists at him. The ex-member of the Real Organization XIII stepped side the swipes before vanishing when his fist made contact. He then reappeared above Marshmallow, "Gotcha!"
He slammed his Keyblade hard against the snow giant. He then cast a fire spell to severely injury Marshmallow. Before the balls of fire could make contact, Riku destroyed them with both of his Keyblades. He smirked, "Hey, if Sora and Roxas can figure it out, then why not me."
Spider-Man then shot a web at Vanitas and proceeded to yank him up. At the same time, Sora pulled out Oathkeeper and Oblivion as both he and Riku leaped in the air and started smack their Keyblades of Vanitas's before they knocked it aside and struck him down. As he started to fade away, they were forced to avoid a tail swipe by Maleficent as she then went back after Spider-Man as she breathed more fire at him.
He ducked the flames and slide under her body when he noticed a scar on her chest. Spider-Man then appeared on the other side, "Guys! There's an opening in her armor! At the chest!"
"Of course," Riku realized, "Aqua mentioned that's where Prince Philip threw his magic sword to defeat Maleficent and where Ansem, Xehanort's Heartless, struck her to open her heart to the darkness."
"Then we need to get her to expose it," Rex stated as he threw a thermal detonator at her as it exploded in her face.
Elsa stepped forth as she stated, "I can do it!" She then muttered to herself, "Hopefully..."
Spider-Man reassured her, "Just get her in position and I'll hold her long enough for someone to deliver the final blow."
Elsa smiled at her boyfriend as she turned to face the dragon. Iduna called out to her daughter, "Be careful, Elsa!"
The future Snow Queen went into her battle stance as Maleficent turned to face her. She then breathed fire upon her as Elsa fired a powerful icy blast. The clash between fire and ice began as the two polar opposites struggled to get the upper hand.
Elsa closed her eyes as she took a deep breath as she focused her light and her power as the fifth spirit into everything she had and the ice over game the fire as the impact cast Maleficent back as she roared in pain. Spider-Man landed on the wall behind the dragon as he fired several webs to hold the beast back. He groaned as he used his Spider-Strength, "I got her! End this fight!"
Sora pulled back his Keyblade as he spotted the scar. He then threw his Keyblade with all of his might at the scar. The blade whistles through the air, surrounded by a nimbus of light, and plunges into the very heart of the dragon. Maleficent screams, a long, high, inhumane sound, as the lights surrounding the Keyblade glow even brighter, until it briefly blinded everyone's sight.
When the light faded, and the dragon was gone, only a greasy spot and a high collared black and purple coat on the ground covered in Spider-Man's webbing with the Keyblade resting on top of it. Pete's eyes widened in shock, "Maleficent?"
Sora's Keyblade reappeared in his hand as Elsa fell to her knees. Spider-Man swung up to her side as he removed his mask as he removed his mask, "You okay?"
"Yeah, just never had to use my powers that directly at something before even with being one of the New Seven Hearts and the Fifth Spirit." Elsa nodded as she pulled herself together and stood back up with her boyfriend's help.
Pete tried to get a good look at Spider-Man's face only for Kristoff to stun him with his blaster, knocking him out. Anna turned to him as he shrugged, "It's bad enough with your ex knowing who he is, I figured the last thing he needed was him knowing too."
Anna smiled at that before they heard Vanitas chuckling. They turned to see the darkness of Ventus's helmet was cracked revealing Sora's face, "Funny... guess I won't be getting what I want after all. Probably for the best... I knew I was eventually going to have to go back or their be one heck of a paradox."
They saw him that he was still fading away as it took all of his strength to remain in this timeline. Iduna couldn't help but asked, "What do you mean?"
"Exactly what I said, mother," Vanitas nodded, "He probably already told you but when the old man began recruiting for the real Organization XIII, he had his past self journey through time, brought our hearts to the present where he had replicas waiting for us. Maleficent may have kept my heart from returning to the past and even got me a new vessel, but now, I'm returning to the moment I came from. Moments before Ventus defeated me. Nothing I can do to change the past, I just hope to make a new future here before I went back."
"Why you of all people?" Sora asked, "Why not Xigbar? Or Ansem? Xemnas?"
"I gotta feeling it was etched into Maleficent's heart," Vanitas shrugged, "Just like Xehanort when he came here from the past. I guided her back to the present, you know. I was hoping it be enough to defy the Master's future. Who knows? Maybe Thanos will do that for me."
"What is he planning?" Sora wondered.
"Honestly, I can't say for certain myself," Vanitas told him, "If I had to guess, I'd say the same thing Xehanort was planning to do with Kingdom Hearts. A new start. He and Luxu had be preparing everything so it would play out to what he envisioned," He then paused, "Oh, in case you do survive Thanos, do me a favor and don't let that jerk win. I tired of being the pawn."
Spider-Man walked up to him, "If you don't like the big bad either then tell us who he is."
Vanitas smirked as he turned to Peter, "Let's just say... he closer than you think." Peter blinked as he turned to Sora, "Give Ventus my regards. Tell him... I'll see him around."
With that, he finally faded away. Anna blinked, "So, Maleficent and Vanitas... are they gone gone?"
"Maybe," Sora shrugged, "But they've cheated death before, so I don't think we've seen the last of them. For now though, we don't need to worry about them."
"Sora..." Everyone turned to see the weakened King Mickey limping over towards them.
Donald and Goofy gasped, "Your Majesty!"
"King Mickey!" Sora gasped as everyone ran over to him as he fell on one knee.
Mickey gave his signature laugh, "I'm glad you're back safe and sound. We were beginning to worry when you lost the Stones to Maleficent."
Donald and Goofy quickly ran up to help their King and Best Friend. Sora looked to his other defeated friends, "What about the others? Are they okay?"
"They're alive," Mickey sighed, "We couldn't stop him. We threw everything thing we could at him and he could've killed us."
Elsa couldn't help but ask, "Then why didn't he?"
"Well, either he's was more focused on getting the Stones than killing them," Peter admitted, "Or that they join us here and strike fear into our hearts. Neither of which are good for us."
Rex removed his helmet, "Well if it's the latter then it won't work."
"I mean it might," Peter shrugged, "I mean, I am. A little. I'm pretty scared."
Elsa nodded in agreement with him as Anna shook it off, "Oh, relax. We just beat an evil genie and a fire-breathing dragon on the same day. We can beat Thanos."
"Except, these were all Keyblade Wielders who battled against the Seekers of Darkness and won," Kristoff pointed out, "Plus a Foreteller who knew a whole lot more than them and even without the Stones, Thanos held his own."
Anna paused as she admitted, "Well, when you put it like that."
"We'll be fine," Sora reassured the team, "We have to be. The armor we have can protect us from the Stones and give us a boost in power. We just need to get the Infinity Gantlet and we can stop him."
"Sora's right," King Mickey nodded, "As long as stick together we can defeat Thanos." He summoned his Keyblade to his hand, "Let's go."
Mickey tried to step forward but fell to his knee. Riku walked up to him, "I hate to admit, Mickey, but you and the other guardians are in no condition to fight. You need to stay here with the others and heal up. Once the shield is up, your GummiPhones should protect you from the snap."
Mickey wanted to argue but he knew Riku was right. Until they healed properly, they'd only be in the way at this point, "Okay... but we'll try to heal as quick as we can to back you up as soon as we are able to."
Riku nodded as just then another voice spoke up, "I might be able to help with that."
Everyone turned to see Ava using her Keyblade as a crutch. Elsa turned to her, "Ava?"
"I've mastered heal magic better than my friends," She explained, "I should have everyone back on their feet within the hour." She knelt to Mickey before turning to Sora, "If you indeed manage to defeat Thanos, I have a feeling it won't be over just yet."
Everyone who had been on Sora's current journey knew what she meant. She was referring to her old mentor, the Master of Masters. As long as he was still pulling the strings, the war for Kingdom Hearts would be far from over.
Sora then pulled out his GummiPhone and gave it to his parents, "Hold on to this, if Thanos does snap his fingers, this will protect you went the shield is up." His mother took the phone as he continued, "You two better stay here with Olaf and King Mickey."
"We're not leaving you," Iduna told him, "I thought I made that clear."
"That was when it was just Maleficent and her allies," Elsa spoke up, "We'll be dealing with Thanos with all six Infinity Stones, unlike you, we're equipped to handle the threat but you can get caught in the crossfire."
"Plus," Anna recalled, "We still need to find that Black Box, if Thanos snaps, the worlds inside might not be safe and we really should focus on that."
"I don't like this," Agnarr admitted but he didn't really see any other options.
Sora reassured his parents, "We'll be fine. It'll take more than a tyrant to stop us." He turned to the others, "Right guys?!"
Donald and Goofy were the first to answer with big smiles and their faces, "You said it!"
"Those Infinity Stones aren't so tough," Donald declared, "Not after everything we've been through."
"Yeah, epically went we have more half-pints to our numbers," Goofy smiled, "Three were more than enough to stop Xehanort! With eleven of us, Thanos won't know what hit him!"
"Yeah," Olaf then suited up in his armor as he wasn't joining the battle, "I'll watch after Thanos, you guys get our rock collection back!"
Everyone got a good laugh out of that as Spider-Man turned to Sora as he placed back on his mask, "So, where do you think Thanos and the Black Box are?"
"If I'm right," Sora answered still feeling both the Stones and the hearts of their friends they've made, "It should be at the end of the maze." Sora then ran ahead of the group, "Follow me."
Everyone followed Sora as Olaf turned to the apparently unconscious Thane, "It's okay, Thane! Sora and the others will take care of everything!"
Little did any of them know, Thane wasn't quite unconscious as they thought he was...
Meanwhile, the Master of Masters and the Foretellers watched as the war against Thanos was about to reach its conclusion. The Master had to admit, "Huh? Kid's more resilient than I gave him credit for. He keeps surprising me."
"Indeed," Gula answered, "Sora and the others managed to get out of the box without the need of the Infinity Stones or the X-blade."
Ira turned to his master, "But what now? Thanos has the Stones and Thane is currently down as is Ava. Should we intervene?"
"Oh, relax, you all know me," The Master answered, "Trust me, Thane will recover to play his role... course I didn't expect Sora to escape... but someone needs to stop Thanos and he volunteered."
"You really think he and his friends be able to stop him on their own," Invi wondered, "Especially when Thanos has all six Infinity Stones."
"Maybe we should back them up," Aced suggested, "Just on the safe side in case Thanos gets the upper hand."
"As if! They won't need it," Luxu argued, "Look this kid's come a long way since leaving his island. He can take on Thanos."
"Yes, and that there lies an issue," The Master nodded to his first student, "The real problem is afterwards. He might not understand what needs to happen in order to rid the world from darkness. So, he might try to stop it out of confusion. Which is why I need you all to be at your full strength. If Sora tries to interfere, you guys need to stop him before he does anything he regrets."
"You... you want us to fight him?" Gula asked out of shock. Most of the Foretellers weren't comfortable with the idea.
The Master of Masters reassured the group, "I'm not asking you to kill him or anything like that! No just knock him around until he's too tired to stop us. Then we'll make sure he and his loved ones join us in the New World Order."
Ira still didn't feel comfortable with this but he trusted his mentor. He gave his Master a bow, "We understand. Hopefully, it won't come to it."
Aced nodded in agreement, "I hope you're right. He's a good kid."
Everyone turned to leave except for Luxu and the Master. The Master then turned to the former Organization member, "So, you played your role to a tee! I can finally congratulate you! Congratulations!"
The Master clapped like a child for him making Xigbar smile before wondering, "Yeah, well, how did Sora get out of the box. I mean, I know how we did but he ain't nearly as smart as we are. He couldn't get out all on his own."
"True," The Master nodded, "Which means he must have some help and it wasn't Ava. As smart as she is, she certainly couldn't have figured it out. Did anyone else suspect what was really going on?"
Xigbar shook his eye before his good eye blinked in realization, "Wait... there was one guy..."
A few years ago, on Olympus, Xigbar watched as Pete and Maleficent abandonedPandora'sbox as they left the world insearch for the BlackBox. Xehanort's right-hand man muttered to them, "May your heart be your guiding key."
Luxu took the moment to himself when a familiar voice caught his attention, "Picture this: a black goat stashes away a letter, then orders a white goat to search for it." Xigbar turned just in time as a Corridor of Darkness opened up revealing Luxord, "What could his intentions possibly be?"
Xigbar turned to face him with a smirk, "Great, a riddle. Just what I need."
Luxord went on as he performed card tricks, making them appear in one hand than another before making them vanish entirely, "There are many possibilities. Perhaps he forgot where it's hidden, or he's playing a prank. I can think of several reasons offhand; guessing... is simply useless."
Xigbar sighed, he hated when people start asking questions that could jeopardize his true role, so he replied, "Well, then just follow your orders, plain and simple."
Luxord continued performing card tricks, that didn't surprise Xigbar. He had done that even in the old Organization. However, what did surprise him that he didn't stop talking about the mission, "Yes, that's what I've always done. I followed the orders from above, without question. However, I sometimes can't help but read into my opponent's strategy."
Luxu simply smirked, "Too long on the job?"
Luxord then asked his fellow Organization member, "If the contents of the box are so unknown, why is it of such critical importance to the Organization? Furthermore, was it Xehanort or Xemnas who gave the order?"
Xigbar didn't have a lie prepared for that question so he replied, "Well, it's tricky."
"All Xehanort cares about is the clash between the seven lights and thirteen darknesses. It's unlikely he would hold such an interest in this mysterious box." Luxord deduced as he turned gave a suspicious look to his teammate, "Which means, the order was issued by... Xemnas, or the one who informed me of my task — you."
Xigbar saw a way to shift the blame and he took it, "As if! It musta been Xemnas."
Unfountary for him, his lie didn't play the way he hoped it would, "My inquiries suggested otherwise."
Xigbar's eyes widened in horror as he realized what Luxord had done, "Oh, man... you asked him?"
That was never supposed to happen. No one was supposed to be asking these kinds of questions. Luxord followed with another, "What are your intentions?"
"Look, I don't know what's inside the box. But it's been protected by Keyblade wielders since way back when. Aren't you curious?" Xigbar lied, "I heard it contains information that's vital to all Keyblade wielders — secrets."
Luxord raised an eyebrow, "And where did you hear this?"
Xigbar continued to lie, "Hmm, I don't remember. I keep my eyes and ears wide open, but I've traveled to so many different places, it's hard to keep everything straight, ya know?"
Luxord's eyes narrowed seeing through the lie. He drew out a card and threw it at Xigbar. The secret Foreteller caught before it could hit him. Luxord continued, "If this box is truly as important as you say, why now? I believe you discovered that others also seek it, and you need to find it before anyone else does, in order to keep your connection to the box a secret from those around you." He smirked as he asked his final question, "Xigbar, who are you really?"
Luxu knew Luxord knew too much, if he told anything more would jeopardize his role. If he tried to dispose of him without a good reason, Xehanort would grow suspicious. Neither option seemed good for him. Luxord smirked as he seemed to realize this as well. Although, he also knew he couldn't do anything about it... at least, nothing without the box. If couldn't learn Xigbar's true intentions, he might know someone who could. A wild card to see it through if he couldn't. He would have to earn first so for now, he told Xigbar, "No matter. it doesn't make a difference to me. It's all the same. I'm content to feign ignorance."
With that, Luxord left by using a Corridor of Darkness without another word. Once he was long gone, Xigbar tossed the card aside as he knew Luxord knew more than what he was letting on, and that wasn't good for the ultimate goal in case Xehanort failed one question that would remain in his mind for the next few years was, "The question is, who are you, Luxord?"
Back in the present, Luxu continued to explain, "After that, Xehanort and Xemnas knew that he... along with Marluxia, Larxene, and Demyx all had ties to the history of the Keyblade Legacy. It was why they were brought back after all, even if Demyx did get benched and end up working with Ansem the Wise. However, I never knew how he was connected. After his defeat at the hands of Sora, I figured that would be the end of it. Guess, he must have figured out a way to help the kid with us knowing it."
The Master sighed as he stretched the back of his head, "I was afraid of this." He answered, "When I first designed the box, I needed some help. I stumbled upon Yozora's butler, who happened to be a Keyblade Wielder and Luxord's somebody. I paid him handsomely for his help but he kept asking questions. When I sent him to the future creating his Nobody with no memories of the incident, I hoped that would be the end of it. Guess, he never did stop asking those questions even with his memory gone."
"So, he gave Sora what he needed to escape the box," Xigbar concluded, "All to make sure we won't succeed."
"It won't matter," The Master shook his head, "Not when we're this close to our true goal. This is why I'm giving you another role next to your final role." He explained, "First, we let the battle between Sora and Thanos play out. No matter the victor, Thane will still play his role. However, if Sora does win, then it'll be up to you and the Foretellers from stopping Thane from doing what needs to be done. I would prefer him alive, as he definitely impresses me with how far he's come. However on the off chance, he proves too much trouble, make sure he doesn't live long enough to get close to Thane."
"Well, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't dying for a rematch," Xigbar smirked before wonder, "Still, if worse comes to worst and I can't stop him... I know you have one final backup plan as it's my final role to fulfill... but what happens when it gets to that point."
"By then, not even he will be able to stop it," The Master proclaimed, "But if that does happen, as the old saying goes, 'I'll deal with him myself.'"
Luxu nodded, even if Sora somehow did manage to beat Thanos and Thane, there was no way he could defeat the Master. Still, he couldn't help but ask, "So, what will you do while we keep Sora occupied."
"Well, let's just say I need to chat with an old friend," The Master turned to the heroes inside the maze...
Near the end of the maze, Sora and the others arrived at the cliffside, where Sora team-up with King Mickey and Riku to defeat Ansem, Xemnas, and Xehanort from the past in one final battle. It's also where he helplessly watched as Master Xehanort struck down Kairi and forged the X-blade. Sora hoped he'd never had to come back here, he nearly lost Kairi forever because of the War. Still, for everyone's sake, he had to. At least he wouldn't be alone to face this threat. Anna was the first to speak, "So... Thanos, the Stones, and the Box are all up there."
"They have to be," Riku answered, "If Thanos is going to wipe out half of all life both here and inside the box, it would have to be done where Kingdom Hearts was at one point. There's something about this place that links them all together."
"I'm guessing the first Keyblade War would have something to do with it," Rex answered, "After all, it's why the worlds are how they're like now."
Sora nodded, "Make sense. If he had tried it on any other world, the Stones would only affect its own world's universe. It would have taken forever if he had done it one world at a time."
"So, this is it," Elsa assumed, "The final battle. The one we're supposed to lose."
"Yeah," Kristoff nodded, "The one Sora keeps having nightmares through the Time Stone about."
"That remains to be seen," Spider-Man stated, "Who cares at what some dumb book says?! We decide our fate! We make our own choices! God gave us free will and nothing and no one is going to tell us otherwise!"
Elsa nodded, "Amen."
Sora smiled, "We'll be okay. We prepared for this! I just hope the Professor has that shield up on time."
"I've known Professor Ludwig Von Drake for years," Donald spoke up, "He'll have it ready."
"All we need to do is stop Thanos for good!" Goofy nodded with determination.
Sora's eyes narrowed, "Okay, let's defy destiny then. All for one..."
And everyone there exclaimed, "AND ONE FOR ALL!"
Elsa nodded, "Let's do this."
With a light tap of her foot, she created ice stairs to up them walk up to battle the Mad Titan. Everyone rain up then, weapons in hand as they were prepared to face this threat. Once on the top, they saw Thanos where Xehanort once stood, sitting on a Throne he created using the Stones. He looked down upon them, "Hmmm? I was hoping for the Master of Masters. I assume this must means Maleficent is dead. Still, she kept her end of the deal and gave the Stones to me."
Sora glared, "Be honest, we're you ever going to hold up here end of the deal?"
"Of course," Thanos smirked, "If she survived the snap that is, she would rule what would remain of the worlds until the Universe fell apart due to the disrupt balance of light and darkness."
Elsa realized, "You knew about it, didn't you? How the worlds would fall if the Stones aren't free from the box."
"Yes, I did," Thanos smirked, "I knew about the divided worlds would eventually pick new Princesses of Heart both inside and out. I knew it would fall without my interference. Still, Maleficent made a point. If I delivered Death with everything at once, that would be that. However, if only gave her a taste before the worlds fell. She would definitely be more delightful for her."
"Then we've got bad news for you," Anna glared at the villain, "That's never gonna happen!"
Thanos simply smirked, "Then you've come a long way to die."
Spider-Man smirked under his mask, "Then I guess it's a good thing we have DIFFERENT plans."
Thanos stood up from his throne, menacingly taking a step down on floating rocks below him to come closer to the heroes. "There IS no escaping destiny." He raised his Infinity Gauntlet, activating the Time Stone to force everyone to witness the vision of the dark future where they lied down on the ground dead and Thanos stood triumphant, "Your fate is written in the stars."
"You know," Sora spoke up, "You and Master Xehanort had something in common."
Thanos raised an eyebrow, "Oh? And what's that, boy?"
"You both believe how things are going to work out," Sora answered, "Both of you believe that things are going to work out in your favor. How it's destiny. And it's up to us to show you how wrong you are!"
Every hero exclaimed in agreement, "YEAH!"
"Is that so?" Thanos smirked as he raised his fingers as he looked like he was going to snap his fingers, "I was hoping to wait until the Master of Masters was here but I guess you will have to do. I am inevitable."
With that, he snapped his fingers...
A few moments earlier, Professor Drake and the chipmunks worked quickly to finish the shield generator as Naminé and the non-fighters watched. Kairi's former shadow held on to Jafar's lamp as she asked them, "Is it ready yet?"
"Just a few more seconds!" He exclaimed as he worked hard to turn the machine on, "Come on! Come on!"
Just then, Naminé flinched in pain as Olette gasped as she went to check up on her, "Naminé?"
Chirithy asked in concern, "What's wrong?"
Little did they know, when Thanos revealed the vision to the heroes ready to fight them, she also caught a glimpse of the vision as it was a strong part of Sora's memory. Her eyes widened in horror, "PROFESSOR! CHIP! DALE! THERE'S NO TIME LEFT! TURN THE MACHINE ON NOW!"
Pence gasped, "You heard her! Start it up!"
"We're trying!" Chip exclaimed as he was doing the final checkups.
"It should be up already!" Dale admitted, "Something must not be connecting!"
Drake exclaimed, "I don't know what we possibly could've missed! We'll have to check every inch..."
"Oh for goodness shakes!" Hayner marched up to the machine grabbed a random wrench, "I'm not planning on dying today! Or watch any of my friends die with me!"
He then raised the machine ready to smack it as everyone exclaimed in horror, "HAYNER! DON'T!"
Hayner smacked the machine as it came to life as a beam of ISO-8 energy was launched in the air and began to surround the planet. Everyone looked dumbfounded as they turned to Hayner who simply smirked, "When in doubt, give it a smack! Works every time!"
Just as Thanos made the snap Sora spotted the shield and they noticed the Box beside Thanos's Throne, he turned to his best friend, "RIKU! YOU'RE PHONE!"
Reacting quickly, Riku threw his phone at the box as the shield covered the box as well as the rest of the planet. Everyone else quickly activated their armor. Riku's armor resembled very closely to Terra's but like Sora's, it glowed with the power of the ISO-8. Donald and Goofy's armor resembled the outfits they wore when they first met Tron but with sliver lining and covered in purple lights.
Thanos blinked in confusion as no one was turning to dust. He snapped a few more times with no results. He stared at the Stones in confusion before observing the shield and their armor. He realized, "Iridium armor and an ISO-8 shield. Clever. But it won't be enough to save your universe."
"Probably not," Sora admitted as he changed in Keyblade to the Ultima Weapon, "But it'll hold up long enough for us to stop you!"
Thanos went into his battle stance as he raised his Infinity Gauntlet, "We shall see!"
Rex turned to Kristoff, Anna, and Sven, "Secure the box! Get it out of the battlefield! We'll take care of him!"
"We're on it!" Kristoff nodded as he and Anna hopped on Sven. The Raindeer ran up the stairs Thanos made as he tried to drop them on to be smacked in the face by Sora's Keyblade.
Sora began to hit the Mad Titan a few more times with his Keyblade forcing the Mad Titan back. He eventually shook off the attack as he proceeded to punch him with the Power Stone. Sora was knocked back by not as bad he would've been without the armor. Rex fried his twin blasters as the Mad Titan. Then grunted in pain before using the Space Stone to create the portal under Rex's feet. The Clone Captain almost fell through until he starting flying with his jet back, "You're not getting rid of me that easily!"
Rex threw a few grenades at the Mad Titan knocking back a little. Elsa followed the attack with a powerful icy blast knocking Thanos back a bit further as Spider-Man kicked him in the face knocking him down. Spider-Man then flipped back as Elsa conjured up a looping ice rail for him to slide in fast like a skater. That way he can come in fast while Thanos was staggered.
"Magic!" Spider-Man quipped as he punched him. Then he came back around. "Cold magic!"
Then Elsa formed a wind for Spider-Man to ride with a web strike to Thanos's back.
"More Magic!" He quipped as he knocked him again. Then he rode the ice wind again, "Magic with a kick!"
He round housed the Mad Titan in the face. Thanos was starting to get annoyed as he spotted Spider-Man's next attack, "Magic with a... Ugh!"
Spider-Man was grabbed by the throat and slammed down by the mad titan, "Insect!"
Thanos spat as he tossed Spider-Man at Elsa causing the to knock her down as well. He leaped into the air as the Power Stone began to glow before throwing his fist down at the young couple. Goofy stopped the attack just in time, blocking it with his shield as the armor increased his shield's defense.
While the others kept Thanos focused on them, the rock stairs began to fall as the Space Stone was no longer focused on them as Anna and Kristoff rode Sven to reach the throne of Thanos. They didn't seem like they were going to make it. Kristoff's eyes widened in horror, "This isn't good!"
Just then, they began to fall when Sven's armor hooves started to blast off causing them to stop falling. Anna blinked in shock, "Wait, Sven's armor can make him fly?"
"You know what?" Kristoff sighed in relief, "I'm not complaining about it." He then spoke for Sven, "Neither am I! This is amazing!"
With that, Sven flew them to Thanos throne as Anna ran to the box, "There it is!" She hopped off Sven followed by Kristoff. She knelt to the box as she smiled, "Hard to believe Arendelle and most of the worlds we visited are inside this box."
"Yeah, along with countless others," Kristoff nodded in agreement, "So, now what? We can't exactly free them since the Stones are currently in the hands of a purple love-struck madman."
"Well, we can't leave It here, if anything happens to the box before we get the Stone's trillions could die and the worlds out here will be doomed!" Anna answered before thinking, "We need to get this to Mom and Dad. They're with King Mickey, Thane, and others who can keep the box safe."
"Okay, good plan," Kristoff nodded before gesturing to Sven, "But as you can see, that might bit difficult without a sled or a wagon." Just as Kristoff finished talking the armor expanded as a jet power sled appeared behind Sven. Kristoff blinked in shock as he turned to Sven, "Did you know your armor could do that?"
Sven shrugged as Anna beamed, "It's perfect! Help me get this thing loaded."
Kristoff nodded as he went to help the Princess carry the box on the sled. He took a moment to admire the sled as he stated, "Now that's a sled. I might cry."
"Go ahead," Anna nodded, "I won't judge."
Once, they made sure it was securely on, they hopped back in themselves as Kristoff told him, "Okay, buddy. Back to Anna's parents and the other Keyblade Wielders!"
Sven nodded as he began to fly them past the battlefield as Goofy repelled Thanos into the air. Donald was channeling all his power into a powerful spell as he aimed his staff, "ZETTAFLARE!"
A beam of red magic blasted Thanos sending him flying into his throne causing the Throne to break and sent him even further flying. Sora remembered the last time Donald used that spell, he turned to Donald in concern, "You okay?"
Donald turned to Sora as he gave him a thumbs up. Sora sighed in relief. He assumed the ISO-8 stuff kept Donald from losing consciousness like he did last time. Elsa turned to them, "Guys, fights not over yet."
Thanos reappeared mid-air, he floated above all of them before using the Power Stone to severely damage the pillar his throne used to be then he used the Space Stone to tip it over on them. Sora's eyes widened in horror, "MOVE!"
Elsa created an ice path away from the maze below them, they slide down the ramp just as the pillar crashed down on the one they were on destroying it. Everyone made it to the middle of the field surrounded by lifeless Keyblades. Thanos then appeared before them, Spider-Man and Rex ran to engage him as the latter flew in the air and fired several shots at him. Thanos then used the Time Stone to slow the battle around them while he couldn't stop them entirely due to the armor he could slow them down. Long enough to grab Spider-Man and throw him at Rex. Elsa quickly created a pile of snow to sorting their landing. Riku roared as he charged in smack Thanos several times with his Keyblade.
The father of Thane grabbed Riku's Keyblade and began through its user around like a rag doll. He threw him aside as Elsa pelted Thanos with hundreds of icicles. The villain simply used the Reality Stone to turn into harmless bubbles unaware it was a distraction for Marshmallow to punch him. Thanos shook off the attack as he head-butted the snow monster before throwing him aside. Marshmallow roared as he quickly recovered to charge at him only for Thanos to use the Mind Stone to make him think he was going to run into Elsa.
He quickly slowed down thinking he would hurt her but Thanos grinned as he grabbed the snow monster, "Got you!"
He grabbed Marshmallow and threw him into the real Elsa. The fifth spirit ducked down just in time to avoid him only to notice Thanos was charging at her only get pelted by powerful blaster bolts. He turned to see Rex flying as Spider-Man swung beside him as the former continued his attack as the latter used his webs to blind him. Thanos snared in annoyance as Spider-Man kicked him into Goofy's shield, which knocked him back even further. Only to get blasted by powerful fire magic from Sora and Donald. Sora then transformed the Ultima Weapon into his Ultimate Form. White armor appear on Sora as he summoned many Keyblades to his side which he used all on Thanos knocking him back.
Thanos tore off the webbing from his eyes as he glared at Sora, "Come on!"
The champions of Light and Darkness charged at each other for a powerful clash...
A few minutes earlier, Ava continued to heal the Keyblade Wielders as Olaf, Agnarr, and Iduna watched the battle from below. Agnarr turned to his wife, "Can you see who's winning?"
"I can't really tell from here," She admitted before her eyes widened, "Look! There's Anna!"
Kristoff, Anna, and Sven flew down with the Black Box on the jet-powered sled. They landed near the King and Queen of Arendelle. Iduna called out to her daughter, "Anna! Are you okay?!"
"We're fine," Anna smiled, "The armor's holding up. And look at what we found."
With that, they unloaded the Black Box. Mickey limped up towards them already feeling better than before, "Gosh! You managed to get the Box back! Great job!"
Aqua managed to regain consciousness turned to Anna, "I take it your Sora's sister?" Anna smiled and nodded as the blue hair woman smiled, "Good to finally meet you."
"Same," Anna smiled as she turned to face the other Keyblade Wielders who were regaining consciousness as well, "All of you!"
Kristoff nodded, "Guess all we need now is the Stones."
Ven smiled before his eyes widened in horror, "Look out!"
Everyone turned to see the pillar that Sora and the others were fighting Thanos was beginning to fall over. It crashed down beside them creating a massive sandstorm. Ava saw this as she raised her Keyblade, "REFLECT!"
The barrier covered all the allies and defeated villains as the sand storm struck. Once it died down, Agnarr looked around with concern, "Where are they?"
Just then, Axel spotted them, "Over there! They're okay!"
Everyone turned to see the others continued to fight Thanos. This made everyone sigh in relief. Anna turned to Kristoff, "Well, we should head back there."
"Yeah," Kristoff nodded as his legs wanted to turn and flee but he knew what would happen if they didn't stop Thanos here and now.
They hopped back on Sven as Anna told her parents and Olaf, "Keep the box safe! Arendelle and countless of other worlds are trapped in there." The King and Queen nodded as she added, "And once you all recover... please help us!"
Everyone nodded as the three ran off back to the battle. Olaf waved to them, "Bye, Anna! Bye, Kristoff! Bye, Sven!" He then looked around, "Hey, where did Thane go?"
Iduna and Agnarr turned to where Thane was last seen as he was no longer there...
Back with the battle, Sora performed his final attack as blades struck Thanos from all sides. The Mad Titan grunted in annoyance before using the Power and Space Stones to blast them off of him as Sora changed back into his standard armor.
However, Sora didn't give up as he shifted his Keyblade into the Oathkeeper and Oblivion and started slashing at Thanos some more while the mad titan was blocking with his gauntlet. Sora spun around with light and dark attacks, spinning at high speed and not giving Thanos a chance. Thanos tried punching but it knocked him back.
Then Sora shifted his armor into the light form and he used both Keyblade's to tried and smacked down on Thanos's head, but the Mad Titan blocked his attack. Then Sora went with a finishing move and rained down bolts of light with dark balls.
"Ugh!" Thanos was flung several yards away from the double impact of Sora's form.
Then he glared as he looked up at the moon of the Keyblade Graveyard and noticed it wasn't fully protected by the ISO-8 shield and held his hand put using the energy of the power stone to grabbed it.
Sora looked up in shock as everyone was horrified to see Thanos crumble the moon with his power and then with a hard closed fist of his gauntlet.
Thanos threw his arm and hurled the moon at everyone in many forms of asteroids...
"Look, guys! The sky is really awake." Olaf gushed seeing the moon fall. Then a rock was coming towards the Agnarr and Iduna which made them and Olaf gasp.
"And it's trying to kill us!" Olaf shrieked as he ran off to avoid the rocks with the parents as Ava broke off her healing spell again to shield them all...
Spider-Man swung around the falling moon rocks with Elsa slowing them down with her ice powers. While Sora was dodging and using his reflect ability and everyone else was either flying or running to avoid the rocks.
Thanos grinned as he sees that the attack he used worked until...
"Hey Old Man Barney! You dropped this!" Spider-Man yelled out.
Thanos turned as Spider-Man flung six moon rocks at Thanos each his webs, each covered in Elsa's ice. Then it smashed on top of Thanos.
Then Spider-Man landed in front of the rocks with Elsa and Sora.
"You throw another moon at me. And I'm gonna lose it." Spider-Man stated as he was ready for any other attack.
Thanos grunted before smiling as he raised his Infinity Gauntlet as the Space Stone began to glow, "Very well then..."
Spider-Man's Spider-Senses went off as he turned around before sighing, "You've gotta be kidding me."
Like Vanitas, Thanos called upon hundreds of fallen Keyblades sent flying at them. Elsa turned around before muttering, "We should run now!"
"Yep!" Spider-Man and Elsa made a dash away from the Keyblades. As they were gaining on them, Spider-Man grabbed Elsa as he began web zipping away from the Keyblades. He couldn't web swing due to the fact there was nothing his webs could attach to. Thanos grinned as he watched as the two tried to avoid the incoming Keyblades.
However, he didn't notice a certain reindeer charging at him. By the time he did, he was slammed away by said reindeer as he tumbled to get back on his feet. Anna and Kristoff aimed their blasters at him as they opened fire at him. Thanos grunted as Riku and Rex joined him with their own attacks. Donald ran in to join them with another, "ZETTAFLARE!"
Thanos was once again blasted with the red beam before using the Space and Power Stone to push back. Rex grunted, "That's not good!"
Thanos began charging at them until he rammed into them like bowling pins. Most of them were down trying to get back up for another attack. Thanos then noticed the shield was flickering. He grinned as Anna asked in concern, "Uh... what's happening?"
Rex grunted, "If I had to guess, since it was made so quickly, they weren't able to finish install the cooling system. The shield generator's overheating."
"Uh, I take it that's bad," Anna assumed.
Rex nodded as Riku stated, "Then we need to get the Stones off of him before the shield goes down!"
Elsa blasted another massive icy blast at Thanos, who used the Reality Stone to absorb it before firing back at her. Elsa raised an ice wall defending herself from the attack as everyone else ducked knowing what would happen if they got struck. Spider-Man lept in as he fired several web shots at as feet as Marshmallow grabbed his arms. Thanos struggled to get free. Spider-Man exclaimed, "Now! Grab the Gauntlet!"
Everyone else there except for Sora was trying to remove the Infinity Gauntlet from Thanos's hand as Sora smacked him in the face with his Keyblade to try to keep him out of focus. Rex grunted, "Come on! Come on!"
"He's got it on tight!" Anna complained.
Elsa told everyone, "Don't quit now! Keep going!"
However, worse came to worst as the shield finally died down, and Thanos noticed this as he head-butted Marshmallow behind him, broke free of Spidey's webbing, and kicked Sora back before using the Power Stone to knock everyone off of him. Thanos prepared to snap his fingers again when he was hit hard by Sora's Ultima Weapon shocklock's ball of light knock him back before he could do the snap. Sora flew mid-air as he threw his Keyblade at Thanos as the Mad Titan used everything he had to stop the Keyblade but even the Stone's themselves couldn't stop the Keyblade as it made an impact with Thanos causing to stop the attack. Both hero and villain fell to their knees as they breathed heavily. Sora glared as he breathed, "It's over. You lost."
Thanos groaned as he slowly smirked, "You... you should have aimed for the head."
He tried to snap his fingers as Sora laughed as he admitted, "You know... I was thinking the same thing. But then I thought... Nah!" He then gestured beside Thanos, "Your arm's good."
Thanos blinked in confusion before turning to his side and realizing his arm wielding the Infinity Gauntlet was no longer there. It had been cut clean off by Sora's Keyblade and he didn't even notice, "No..."
Just then, Marshmallow punched the Mad Titan away from the Infinity Gauntlet. Everyone else began to recover as Elsa sighed in relief, "Oh, thank God."
"Whew! I was almost worried there," Anna admitted, she and Kristoff laughed a little.
"Sora!"
Sora turned to see all of his friends and his parents rush him to him. All Keyblade Wielders greeted the return of their friend and the fact he pulled off another miracle again. Sora laughed as he greeted his old friends. Ven smiled, "It's good to have you back!"
"Honestly," Sora smiled, "It's good to be back!"
The King and Queen were shocked by the reunion between Sora and his friends. Just then, Sora's GummiPhone began to ring as they observed the said device. It took a moment but Iduna eventually figured out how to answer it. Professor Ludwig appeared on screen, "Oh, hello? Is Sora there?"
Sora ran up to his parents as he showed his face, "I'm here! What's up?"
"Well, the machine overheated itself and it needs a moment to cool off," Ludwig replied sheepishly, "I take since no one is being turned to dust means you stopped him before that happened?"
"Yeah," Sora smiled as he took the phone to show him the defeated Titan, "It's over. We won!"
He could hear the cheers from his friends on the phone. Agnarr turned to his son as he told him, "While, your mother and I are still disappointed that you and your sisters ran away from home... we're so proud of you." Sora chuckled as his father called out to his daughters, "All of you!"
Both sisters waved to him as Peter and Kristoff did the same, Iduna turned to Sora, "So... Elsa's boyfriend and Anna's... friend? Are they..."
"They're good guys, Mom," Sora reassured, "I know you and Dad will like them." He scratched the back of his head, "The council on the other hand..."
Agnarr chuckled as he reassured him, "Oh, who cares what they think... I was thinking about firing them and getting replacements anyway."
Sora beamed at that news, "FINALLY!"
Lea then walked up to Sora, "Hey, so... with the big bad purple dinosaur down, let's restore the Worlds then go wake Kairi up!"
"Yeah!" Sora nodded in agreement when they heard Thanos groan.
Everyone turned to him as the Mad Titan struggled to get to his feet, "This… is not… how it ends…"
Rex looked like he was ready to arrest him on the spot when a familiar voice spoke up, "For once, you are correct, father."
Everyone turned to face as Thane walked out of the shadows as Ava turned to him, "Thane?"
Thane ignored her as he walked closer to his father. You may have dreamed of oblivion, but madness clouded your vision. Thankfully, I can see what YOU couldn't."
Slightly moving his left hand, Thane telekinetically and forcefully lifts off the Infinity Gauntlet from Thanos's fallen hand. The Gauntlet flies past the heroes as it inserts itself onto Thane's left hand, as he closes his new Gauntlet to get a feel of its infinite power. Elsa turned to Thane in confusion, "Thane? What are you doing?"
Unaware to everyone, the Master of Masters watched the events that have taken place. He smirked under his hood as he knew what would happen next. Thane continued, "This universe deserves SO much more. Something only I can give it."
Sora told him, "Thane... I don't know what's gotten into you but you've got it all wrong."
Sternly, Thane turned to face the heroes as his possession of the Infinity Gauntlet puts them all at unease and into defensive stances, "Ah, but you were right all along, my friends. I am not my father." Thane and the heroes turn over to Thanos, who groans weakly while trying to stand on his feet. Thane turned around, having his back facing the heroes. With a grunt, he strikes the air with the Infinity Gauntlet as it emits powerful energy that nearly blinds the heroes. He proclaimed, "I am something FAR better."
All six Infinity Stones glow with incredible energy as Thane uses their powers to open six portals in spacetime with their respective colors. Flying out of the portals are holographic armor pieces that embed themselves on different parts of Thane's body. His arms get encase with solid golden armor pieces. Next were the legs. And finally his chest. His new golden armor is highlighted with rainbow energy as Thane smirked sinisterly before spinning into the sky and flexes his new armor, which radiates cosmic power.
Everyone stared in horror as Thane wore the entire Infinity Armor. Thanos finally stood on his feet as he looked upon his son as he groaned, "What have you done, boy?!"
The newly-armored Thane turns around in the air to face his father, "What you NEVER could, father." The Master of Masters stood where he was as Thane empowered himself with the Power Stone, causing his armor to radiate purple cosmic power. He channels energy to his gauntlet and begins firing a relentless, violent, and brutal barrage of energy blasts down at his father, "I WON!"
Thanos cries out in pain as he gets pushed back by his son's unstoppable assault of fury. Spider-Man called out to the Inhuman, "THANE! STOP!"
"YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS, THANE!" Elsa called out hoping to convince him to stop before he did something he would regret.
Hearing the voices of his friends, Thane stops his assault and powers down while turning to stare at them with a stern facial expression. Riku called out to him, "It's over! Thanos and his minions have been defeated!" He added, "You don't need to kill him!"
Ava added, "Thane! I don't know what happened but you're not thinking straight! Take off the armor before you do something you regret!"
Iduna walked up to him as well, "I may not have known you as long as my children but I know you to be a good man. Please. Let's calm down and talk about this..."
"No more talk," Thane told them.
Axel smirked as he summoned his Keyblade, "You got it!"
Every other hero summoned their respective weapons or went into their battle stances as Sora told him, "We don't want to fight you, Thane."
Donald glared as he waved his staff, "But if you expect us to believe you're tougher than Thanos because you, big palooka, put on some old suit..."
"You don't NEED to believe." Thane channels the Space Stone's power, gaining a blue glow in response. He flies high above the Keyblade Graveyard and aimed the Infinity Gauntlet at everyone down below. "I'll show you."
He told them, channeling flaming blue energy in the Gauntlet, and with a fierce shout, he punches that energy at everyone as everything turns white. With that, everyone currently on the world whether in battle or not vanished from the planet. The Black Box included...
Elsa moaned as she regained consciousness. She sat up as she muttered to herself, "What happened?" She blinked as she looked around, "Mom? Dad? Anna?! Sora?! Pete... er... Spider-Man?!"
"Elsa!" Spidey's voice called out to her. She turned to him as she saw he was no longer in his armor as he was swinging to her.
She retracted her own armor as she smiled in relief, "Peter..." She ran up to him as she pulled him into a hug before wondering, "What happened to the others? And where are we?"
Spider-Man looked around, "Not sure. You're the first one I managed to find when I woke up in this place." He then reassured her, "But I believe everyone is still alive. Thane only meant to bring us to this world not kill us... at least not yet."
"I still don't get what's gotten him," Elsa frowned as she looked around to see they were on a world with islands of castles that appeared to be linked to each other, "What is this place?"
Just then, a new voice spoke, "This is the world where your brother had his final stand against Master Xehanort. Scala ad Caelum."
Everyone turned to see the man in the Organization coat float down to them. Elsa blinked, "Luxu? No, your voice is different."
"Yeah," Spider-Man nodded in agreement, "He sounds like the guy who took Yozora when we defeated him in New Orleans." He then asked, "And who are you?"
"Really? You haven't figured it out?" He chuckled under his hood, "And I thought you were smart. But to answer your question: I am the Master of Masters and yes the mastermind behind the Keyblade Wars. The real question is... Who are you, old friend?"
Elsa blinked in confusion, "Old friend?"
Spider-Man groaned as he realized, "Great. One of my enemies is behind this." He then turned to the Master of Masters as he assumed, "So this is where you make the big reveal, and I say! Holy cow! Norman Osborn! Or the Kingpin! J Jonah Jameson!" He then really hoped it was his old boss, "C'mon, PLEASE be Jameson..."
Elsa turned to her boyfriend, "Wow. You really have issues with your employer."
"Trust me," Peter turned to her, "If you knew him as long as I have, you'd understand."
"All of them long gone where I'm from, I fear." The Master shook his head, "Too bad they never had access to the knowledge and magic that kept me around as long as I have. You'd be amazed by what I have learned over the eons. It does wonders to you. And I do mean..." He then removed his hood to reveal a middle-aged man with an eyepatch covering one of his eyes, but his face and everything else about him is what triggers the biggest bombshell in history, "You."
The Master of Master's face resembled a much older Peter Parker as Elsa gasped, "You... you... look like..."
She turned to her boyfriend who was also dumbfounded as he removed his mask in shock, "No. It… it… can't…"
"…can't be, yes, why do people always say that?" The older version of Peter chuckled as he picked up the fallen mask, "But deep down... you both know the truth."
"I'm... I'm the one who kidnaps Sora as a kid?" Peter was dumbfounded, "I'm... the evil mastermind behind the Keyblade War?"
"Oh, don't be melodramatic." The Master of Master quipped, "With great power comes great responsibility…" He quotes the iconic motto as he walked up to his younger self, "And… great opportunity. And the only way to live up to all that responsibility…" He then hands back the mask to his stunned counterpart, "Is to use every opportunity to get all the power." He walks around his younger self, as he's blankly staring at his own mask, "I learned that the day I lost everyone I loved… And I didn't have the power to stop it."
Peter was completely horrified, "What do you mean everyone?"
"To put it short, in my universe a few years after Gwen's death, I was chosen by the Keyblade. Then the Keyblade War hit and I only survived because I discovered the Stones and when the universe was restored I learned everything I could about the Stones, the X-blade, Kingdom Hearts... all in hopes to prevent another. Time and time I fail but that's when I realized... I could use the Keyblade War to my advantage. To rid the darkness for good I need to reshape the universe from scratch and it's the final phases as we speak." He placed his hand on his younger self's shoulder, "You'll see soon enough. Well, actually by the time my friend Thane and Luxu are done using the Stones. You won't have to. Consider yourself lucky."
Elsa then shoved the older's Peter's hand off of him as she glared, "You may claim to be Peter... but your not him. You can't be him! The Peter I know would never endanger the lives of innocents..."
Master Parker chuckled, "I thought the same thing at first but they all have false light in their hearts and they'll never be free of the darkness. Not until I do what needs to be done to fix it. I've done it countless times."
Elsa's eyes narrowed as she refused to move her ground. He then turned to his younger self, "Let me explain it all to you…"
Spider-Man quickly put back on his mask as he grabbed Elsa as he retorted, "Explain it to our rapidly retreating backsides!"
With that, he began to swing away with Elsa as she turned to him, "Peter? How is that... How is this even..."
"I don't know," Peter told her not getting over the shock at who they just met, "But we have to let Sora know! We have to warn him!"
Elsa sighed as she nodded in agreement, "Right... right..."
However, just as they turned around the next corner, the Master of Masters appeared ahead of them. Spider-Man's eyes widened under his mask as his future self simply raised a hand, "Stop."
Time froze around Peter and Elsa as they froze but their eyes moved around as they were aware of what was happen. The older Parker chuckled, "Sorry, can't have you running off so easily. Even if I did, you can't stop of what comes next. Not even Sora so stay there and listen. You're going to want to hear this..."
Things seemed hopeless for the two when all of a sudden a beam of light shot out from the sky. Older Peter looked up just in time as he dodged it just as it struck the ground. It also freed Spider-Man and Elsa from the time spell as they turned to see who their savior was. The Master also looked up before smirked, "Guess I should have known you showed up sooner or later..."
Standing between the young couple and the Master of Masters was a young girl around Sora and Elsa's age. The latter's eyes widened as she recognized who the girl was. Standing before them as she glared at the Master, with Destiny's Embrace Keyblade in hand was none other than the love of Sora's life. Kairi...
And that will conclude today's chapter! Bet you suspected the Master of Masters's true identity was a future version of Peter! Fan fact: if you beat Taskmater in Marvel's Spider-Man PS4 you unlock a trophy called, "Master of Masters!" Now do I think he's the MoM in the cannon. No, but I like the concept of it for this story but I do have a theory of who the Master is in the cannon. I think he's a version of Sora. Hear me out, when we first visit the Keyblade Graveyard in KH3. When everyone got overtaken by Terranort and the Heartless, Sora was the last one standing after Riku fell... Now, while Kairi kept Sora mostly together the best she could so he could put himself together again... what if a piece of him ended up in the past and he worked up to become the Master of Masters.
There's a lot of good theory videoes that have similar theories so I'd go check them out if I were you. And hey, Kairi's awake and ready to kick some Master butt! Like we were hoping for in Melody of Memory...
Now to the preview. Kairi's back in the nick of time, but now our heroes must reunite to stop Thane from summoning Kingdom Hearts and recreate the universe. In order to do so, they must battle against Luxu and the other Foretellers to stop the Master of Masters plans! Can they convince the Foretellers that they're being used? Can our heroes defeat Thanos while he's in the Infinity Armor? Can they team-up with the most unlikely of allies to do so? Even if they succeed, what is the Master's final plan for the Infinity Stones? All under the light of Kingdom Hearts! Stay tuned!
I hope you enjoyed the chapter! Be sure to leave a review. Also if you haven't already be sure to leave a follow and fav. as well. I hope everyone has a good Memorial Day or whenever you're ready this! See you next time!
