Alex, The King, and his friends, appeared at the top of Bald Mountain. And there standing there was the Syndicate Leader. "YOU!" Alex yelled. The Syndicate Leader chuckled. "So, this is the Disney Warrior?" The Syndicate Leader. "You are but a boy!"
Alex noticed something odd; the Syndicate leaders face was covered by a black hood. But he was short, and something seemed strangle familiar about him. The Syndicate Leader then turned to Mickey. "Ah, you've escaped my loathsome copy!" The Syndicate leader said. "Copy?" Alex thought. "The only copy around here is you Dark Mickey!" King Mickey yelled. The Syndicate Leader laughed and removed his hood. Alex was shocked to see that the Syndicate Leader was an exact duplicate of King Mickey, only He wore a black cloak, and he had a bite out of his left ear. "Now why did you have to spoil the surprise?" Dark Mickey scowled. "I simply LOVE Surprises…."
Chapter 31: Dark Mickey
Alex glanced at both Mickeys. "Can someone please explain to me WHY there are TWO Mickeys?" Alex cried. Dark Mickey laughed. 'So, you're precious King did not tell you?" Dark Mickey asked. King Mickey sighed. "Well, ya see…' King Mickey began. "No, let ME" Dark Mickey interrupted. "There's light and darkness in every heart, even yours Alex." Alex just glared. "Anyway, the light and darkness in a heart, balance each other out, as to not destroy the body… But the light in that wretched king's heart was so strong, that the darkness could not surface! But since his light was strong, so was his darkness… The Darkness found another way to surface, by creating an equal manifestation of King Mickey, thus creating me" Dark Mickey finished. "I get it; you're an embodiment of King Mickey's darkness!" Alex said. Dark Mickey smiled. "Correct. You catch on fast!" Dark Mickey glanced over to the growling Stitch. "Ah, my pet, we meet again!" Alex looked at Stitch in shock. "Your pet?" Ariel asked. "I created him. I was going to use him in experiments, but he felt otherwise and escaped, but not before leaving me a little souvenir…" Dark Mickey growled as he pointed to the bite out of his left ear. 'I always knew that little monster had bad taste…" Jack commented.
Dark Mickey turned to the pirate. "If it isn't the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow, the most notorious imbecile to ever sail the seven seas!" Dark Mickey mocked. Jack glared at Dark Mickey as he now faced Ariel. "And what do we have here? King Tritons little Angel fish!" Dark Mickey grinned. Ariel tried to slap him, but Dark Mickey teleported out of the way. "My, you have such a strong will, for someone so frail and beautiful. The perfect bride for the most powerful being in the world. You'd look good sitting by my side." Dark Mickey smirked. He was trying to provoke Alex, and it worked. "Alright wise guy! Let's finish this!" Alex whipped out his sword and charged. Dark Mickey jumped over his head and drew out his sword. It was dark purple, had jagged edges all around the blade, and was pulsing with dark energy. "I intend to Disney Warrior!" Dark Mickey yelled lunging at Alex. Jack and Stitch wanted to run in and help but King Mickey stopped them. "This is Alex's fight now…" King Mickey said watching the two battle.
The two blades clanked and clinked as they met each together in this fierce dual. "Well, boy, it seems you have impressive skills" Dark Mickey commented, jumping out of the way of Alex's blade. "Thanks, I took 3 years of fencing classes before I came to this world" Alex said while doing a horizontal swipe. Dark Mickey ducked and tried to do a quick stab. Alex moved to the side and pushed Dark Mickey to the ground. "GOTCHA!" Alex yelled holding him down. Dark Mickey grunted and groaned as he tried to worm his way out of Alex's grip. Alex held the Disney Blade into the air and brought it down. But suddenly Dark Mickey grinned as he suddenly teleported out of Alex's hold, causing him to run the blade into Bald Mountains pea, just like Dark Mickey wanted. Dark Mickey laughed evilly. "YOU FOOL! NOW CHERNABOG'S REING WILL CONTINUE ONCE AGAIN!" Dark Mickey yelled as the mountain began to shake. The Disney Blade began to glow brightly and the mountain peak began to crack. Wind began to pick up and swirl until they were all trapped in a massive tornado of dust. "ALEX! WE GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE!" Ariel yelled.
Alex ignored Ariel and began to try to dislodge his weapon. Suddenly, a booming voice dashed all of Alex's hope of getting his sword and leaving. "Who has awakened me? Who has freed me?" The voice was dark and deep. "Oh! Mighty Chernabog! Who has trapped you here?" Dark Mickey yelled. "XELA!" The voice boomed. "And now that his foolish heir has set you free! What are you going to do?" Dark Mickey yelled again. Suddenly the whole peak shattered, sending Jack, Stitch, King Mickey and Ariel, flying off the side and thru the roof of the castle. "KILL HIM!" The voice replied to Dark Mickey's question. Ariel, Jack, King Mickey and Stitch froze at what they saw. Out of the dust tornado came the gigantic figure of a black gargoyle. Its massive wings flapped away the dust cloud. Its huge horns was about the size of the Black Pearl. The only part of him that was not demonic black was his eyes his piercing yellow eyes, in his hands was Alex while Dark Mickey stood on Chernabog shoulder. Chernabog open his hand, allowing Alex to stand on his huge palm. "So, THIS is the heir of the mighty Xela?" Chernabog suddenly broke into laughter, his evil laugh echoed throughout the area. Alex whipped out the Disney Blade and pointed it at Chernabog's face. "Now see here! I'm not afraid of you! And I shall finish what Xela started!" Alex yelled.
Chernabog just laughed again and threw Alex at the ground where the Great Forest once was. "ALEX!" Ariel yelled running out of the castle to get to Alex, with Jack, King Mickey and Stitch behind her. Chernabog then turned to Dark Mickey who was sitting on his shoulder. "So, you are the one who tricked Xela's heir to free me?" Chernabog questioned. "Yes, I am Dark Mickey" Dark Mickey replied. "And I believe I am to be given my due!" Chernabog grinned evilly. "Indeed you shall receive your due, after a certain issue is taken care of…" Chernabog pointed to Alex who was staggering to his feet, he had survived Chernabog's throw, but barely. Ariel, Jack, King Mickey and Stitch ran over to their friend.
Alex wasn't hurt, but his hope was gone. "He's powerful; I could feel it as he gripped me…." Alex moaned. "Too powerful I'm afraid…" Suddenly the Disney Blade began to glow, and a voice was heard. "Oh for the love of! Alex, your not going negative on me now!" Everyone stood back as a transparent figure appeared before them. He was tall, about Jack's height. He had spiky black hair with a few small freckles under his eyes. He wore a loose fitting blue tunic along with grey shorts and brown hiker's boots. "Xela…." King Mickey murmured. Indeed it was the warrior of ledged. Xela glanced at King Mickey. "Looking good Mick." Xela smiled. Xela now turned toward Alex. "So, THIS is my replacement? The Disney Blade picked out a good one…"
