The Dragon's Shadow
Sora, Donald, and Goofy stumbled through the bushes and bamboo stalks, trying to find an exit. Finally, they reached a glade littered with boulders and a large stone in the back. A fire blazed in front of the large rock, but a ring of rocks covered its base. Donald turned to Sora and Goofy. "For all we know they're cannibals or voodoo people. It'll take a miracle to get out of here."
"Did somebody ask for a miracle!" An enormous shadow rose from behind the flames. "Now let me hear you say 'Argh!'" Donald screamed. "That's close enough!" Sora pulled the Keyblade out, Donald and Goofy pulling out their weapons, too.
"Who are you!" Sora shouted.
"I am the great, mighty, and all powerful-"
"Mushu?" Goofy put the shield down.
"What you talkin' bout?" Mushu jumped out from behind the rocks. "Hey, you're not Mulan."
"Of course not. It's us." Mushu looked at the three of them for a minute, and then it hit him.
"Sora, Donald, Goofy! Man, I thought I'd never see you again." Sora shrugged.
"Who'd have known?" Mushu started blabbing on incomprehensibly. "Wait," Sora interrupted. "Who were you looking for?"
"Oh yeah." Mushu seemed to have forgotten in the excitement. "You see, the Ancestors sent me to wake up the 'Great Stone Dragon', which I broke, and then I lied and said I was the Great Stone Dragon, so now I have to go bring Mulan back like the ancestors said, cuz she dressed up like a boy to take her daddy's place in the army, but she can't be found out or they'll whack her," Mushu paused to take a breath. "So I plan on makin' her a war hero so she doesn't dishonor her family and I can be cool with the Ancestors again." Sora, Donald, and Goofy stood there, trying to understand everything that was just said. Mushu sighed. "I messed up, and now I have to help Mulan and fix everything I messed up." The three of them understood then.
"So, where is she?"
"I dunno, I thought you were her." Then, there was talking from behind the bushes. When they investigated, someone was talking to their horse, obviously rehearsing something. "Mulan!" She jumped as Mushu marched out of the bushes.
"What are you, some kind of lizard?" She picked Mushu up by the tail.
"I'm a dragon, and I'm here to get you through the army so we can blow the Huns up and save China!" Mulan sat there holding the guardian, nobody having any idea what he was talking about. "Name's Mushu."
"So, this is some kind of war?" Sora was starting to piece it all together.
"Okay. The Huns invaded China, like, a few days ago. Now the Emperor's drafting people to go fight a war against them!" Sora was stunned.
"What! That's crazy!"
"Yeah, well now we're stuck in it. Mind lending a hand?" Sora, Donald, and Goofy looked at each other.
"Why not."
