Alex ran over to Frollo who hadn't seen him. He picked up a bow and arrow that one of the guards had dropped and fired it at Frollo, smacking his hat right off his head. This was enough to get his attention. "FROLLO!" He yelled. "Your cruelty and unfair justice ends here!"
Frollo took off his robe to reveal a normal outfit anyone would wear. But what surprised him was that he was holding not one, but two swords in his hands. "Okay, you got the look of a fighter, but do you have the skills?" Alex grinned as he took out the Disney Blade. Frollo growled as he jumped off the stage and charged at Alex with the two swords in hand. "BRING IT ON!" Alex cried as he too charged at Frollo with the Disney Blade in hand. This was going to be a rumble to remember.
Chapter 13: Down with Frollo
As Alex charged at Frollo, he didn't see Frollo shot out his fist. Poor Alex ran right into it, knocking the wind out of him. While he was stunned, Frollo grabbed and threw him. Alex went flying against the stone walls of Notre Dame; he slid against the wall down to the ground. "Old man has some hidden muscles… I mean, I'm about 115 pounds! How can he lift me?" Alex asked himself as he dusted himself off. Frollo roared as he charged at him once more. "OH GEEZE!" Alex cried as he ducked out of the way of one of Frollo's swords. "Stitch! Save the girls! I'll deal with him!" Alex said looking at the little blue alien. Stitch muttered something in another language and ran over to save Esmeralda and Ariel. Stitch sliced their ropes apart, freeing them. "C'mon Ariel, we have to free all the people Frollo captured in the Court of Miracles!" Esmeralda said. Ariel nodded and the two ran to free all the people. Meanwhile the Prime Minister and the Disney Warrior battled it out. "What can you hope to accomplish?" Frollo said as one of his swords met with the Disney Blade. "You really think you can beat me?"
Alex smiled his familiar grin. "Buddy, you have no idea who I am…" The ruby emblem on the Disney Blade's handle began to glow. "I'm the Disney Warrior!" The emblem began to glow brighter. "I'm a warrior of ledged, destined to protect this land from a demon far worse than anything you could imagine!" Suddenly the blade itself began to glow bright red. The next time the swords met, the blade's glow and energy actually blew Frollo back a couple feet. "Whoa... How'd I do that?" Alex asked himself. The second he finished, the blade stopped glowing. "Aw c'mon, just when I was getting started!" Frollo began to recover. "Is that all you got?" He asked as he picked up his two swords. Suddenly, out of the blue, a rumble was heard. The two fighters turned to the side, and saw something. What they saw, was the people who Frollo had trapped, where now free, and very angry. They were all in a group heading straight for them. In unison, everyone in the group chanted "Down with Frollo! Down with Frollo! Down with Frollo!" The group suddenly began chasing both Frollo AND Alex.
The chanting grew louder as the two ran towards Notre Dame. "The chanting is kinda catchy…" Alex commented. "Down with Frollo! Down with Frollo!" Alex mimicked.
Suddenly stitch ran right out of the crowd and jumped onto Alex's shoulder. "Hey buddy, I missed ya!" Alex said. Frollo and Alex ran right inside and closed the double doors. Alex instantly ran towards the Bell tower and Frollo followed him up. Alex ran into the room with all the golden bells hanging. He heard something, and when he turned around he saw Frollo pointing his two swords at Alex's throat. "You can't attack Stitch and I here!" Alex said. "This is a sacred sanctuary!" Frollo glared. "There IS no sanctuary for you. Soon I will send you and your filthy demon down to the underworld!" Stitch growled in anger. "I'm cute, and fluffy!" with that Stitch rocketed off of Alex's shoulder and rammed into one of the bells. Stitch had rammed it \ with such force, that the sound of its ringing actually shook up the tower. Alex fell down to the ground due the vibration.
Frollo struggled to keep his balance but was heading for the window. Alex looked up, just as Frollo fell right out of the window. The ringing stopped and all went silent. Suddenly a grinding sound was heard. Alex turned around and saw Stitch, using his fingernail to carve into the bells surface the words "STITCH WUZ HERE" When Stitch turned around and saw Alex staring at him, he just laughed. Alex couldn't help but crack a smile himself. "C'mon Stitch, let's survey the damage…" Alex called as Stitch finished his carving and followed him. When they went outside, all the people where staring at him. The people moved away to clear a path for someone who was coming.
When the person came into view, Alex noticed he was wearing the outfit that a Court Jester would wear. The person walked right up to them. "Who are you?" Alex asked. "I am Clopin, the king of the gypsies." He said. Suddenly his hand shot up and revealed a puppet on his arm. "No, I'm Clopin!" the puppet interrupted. Clopin suddenly smacked the puppet with a small paddle, which gave reason for Alex and Stitch to question the man's sanity. When Clopin finished beating his puppet, he turned back to Alex and Stitch. "I speak for everyone when I say, thank you. You have liberated us from the evil this man has brought upon us." Clopin said bowing. "Just happy to be of service" Alex said happily. Suddenly a voice shot out of the crowd. "ALEX!" Alex recognized the voice. "I'm over here Ariel!" Alex called back. Out of the crowd came Quasi, Ariel, Jack and Esmeralda. Ariel instantly hugged him tightly. "I'm so glad your ok!" Alex just laughed nervously.
Quasi walked up to them. "Guys…" He said. "I...I made you all something." Quasi held up four wooden replicas of Jack, Alex, Stitch and Ariel. They each took one and looked it over. "It's so cute!" Ariel cried looking at hers. "I can use this as a keychain!" Alex said looking at the one which resembled him "Is my nose that big, mate?" Jack asked as he felt his nose while looking at his. Stitch just used his as a puppet. Within seconds, Stitch and Clopin's puppets began talking to each other. "Hey Alex, have a look at this mate." Jack called. Alex went over and saw him kneeling by Frollo's body. "What's up?" Alex asked. Jack lifted up Frollo's lifeless hand. "You see that black gem on his cufflinks?" Jack asked. "Yes?" Alex replied. "That there mate, is the mark of the Syndicate" Jack said. "Hook had shown it to me when we were still partners, he had one attached to the base of his hook!" Alex stared at it before taking it off Frollo. "We might want to save this…." Alex said stuffing the Cufflink into his pocket.
Meanwhile Esmeralda and Jack where saying their goodbyes. "Well, I'm….sorry I forgot the ring" Jack said sheepishly. Esmeralda just laughed. "Don't worry about it, you have enough problems…" she said as she kissed him on his cheek. Alex laughed at the site and then turned to Clopin. "Before we go, do you know about a place called Bald Mountain?" Alex asked. Clopin thought for a moment. "Oh yes, to reach it, you must go to the continent of China, and travel thru the great forest, on the other side, is Bald Mountain." Clopin answered. Alex nodded. After they all said their goodbyes, the team boarded the Black Pearl and took off into the horizon. When they were a good distance away… "Hey, where's Stitch?" Alex asked. They all looked around to finds Stitch clinging onto the mast for dear life. "Stitch, no like water!" Stitch said as he shook in pure fear. The group just laughed in delight.
Back at Notre Dame, Quasi was about to ring the bells when he noticed Stitch's carving. Quasi just laughed. "I'll miss those four." He said as he went to the window to watch the sun rise. "I thought they'd never leave!" Someone said in the background. Quasi turned around to see one of the Gargoyles that Stitch was sniffing earlier was moving! And talking! "A statue can only hold the same position for so long." The statue wined. Quasi just laughed again. "What's so funny big guy?" It asked. "I swear that kids, dog thing was gonna eat me!" Quasi just laughed harder. "Be nice Hugo" Quasi said as he stopped laughing. "They're my friends!" Hugo just sighed. "Well, they DID get rid of Frollo..." The two just stared as they watch the Black Pearl disappear over the horizon
Meanwhile, in a dark castle at the foot of Bald Mountain. Maleficent the dark witch walked over to the Syndicate leader. "Sir, I have some…" Maleficent gulped. "Bad news…" The leader growled. "What now?" he asked in irritation. "The Disney Warrior and his fools took out Frollo." The leader once again punched another hole in the wall. "WHAT?" He thundered. "They also rounded up another teammate…" The leader just gripped onto the armrest of his chair. "Anyone important?" He asked calming down a bit. Maleficent waved her wand and an image of Stitch appeared. "That's that Alien!" He shouted. "The one that got away! The one who did this to me!" The Syndicate leader showed that there was a bite mark out of his ear. "What do we do?" Maleficent asked. "We continue as planned." The leader stated. "But tell the others to be on their guard!" Maleficent bowed before exiting.
The leader pulled a lever on his throne, and one of the walls moved, revealing a large holding cell. Inside was a 3ft. tall mouse, with round floppy ears, clown like shoes and a red jacket to match his pants and white gloves. It was King Mickey! "You won't get away from this." The king yelled. "Oh, but I will!" The Leader said." Even if that rag-tag team makes it to the great forest, they will never stand a chance against the evil demon which lurks inside." The King sat down in his cell. His only hope was the Disney Warrior and his team. "Oh don't feel bad you Majesty…" The Leader said. "You'll have a place in my Kingdom, as my servant!" The leader laughed as he pulled the lever and the wall closed up again. The King sighed. "Aw, I hope those fella's are okay..." The King said to himself. "The Syndicate is a very powerful group, I just hope the legend is true…"
