by SORARULES23

Sora, Donald And Goofy finally awakens to stop Organization XIII and find their friends Riku and the King. But this time they're not doing it alone. (This story is connected to the Maverick Series.)

24. Arabian Nights!

We're Back Folks!

ARABIAN NIGHTS! LIKE ARABIAN DAYS! More often than not! Are hotter than hot!
In a lot of good ways! Arabian Nights! Like Arabian Brass! The Guardians are here! To save that's held dear! And kick lots of ass!

"I am Groot!" Baby Groot sung the last note. Translate: "Good evening Friends!"

Greetings my fellow readers! I bet you've been looking forward to seeing how all of this plays out. Well, I hope every single one of you understands that while I am a fan of the original Aladdin movie, I've always been since I was a kid. I say with great pride in art and creativity that I can't stand the sequel 'The Return Of Jafar'. But I did think that the Kingdom Hearts II segment in Agrabah was much better then that film. So I am not in any condition going to base this on any scene in that Disney Direct Sequel. This will be fully inspired by the KH II version of this story. But I have add characters from the first movie that were missing and I've created a whole new adventure based on one of video game from one of my favorite Playstation exclusive series. If you can guess what it is. You may add an Idea for the next chapter on the conditions that it stays consistent with the flow of this story.

And in addition to being consistence. I will add in two details. One. Aladdin and Jasmine are married in this chapter. They were at the end of the first movie so I will correct that little blooper from the sequels and TV show. Also Aladdin will not be dressed in his street rat outfit from the first movie. Because it never made sense to me that if Aladdin lives in a palace, why does he still dress like a thief?

"Maybe Jasmine just really likes the Middle Eastern male stripper look." Maverick quipped.

Also before anyone asks. No I wasn't a fan of the Aladdin TV Show either. Sure it wasn't awful and it did have some memorable villains and interesting ideas. But trying to capture that Disney movie feel seems to work better when you can expand with your main characters, not be restricted by them. And that's the main problem I had with the show. Aladdin and Jasmine were strong enough characters to hold a movie, but in the sequel and Tv show, they were so bland, you could replace them with an empty shell and Michael Eisner saying 'That's you. You're doing that'.

(If anyone out there watches Nostalgia Critic then you know where I got these statements from. But I'm totally in agreement with his words.)

So long story short. I'm going to expound on the characters from the original 'Aladdin' movie, but I'll keep it mostly focused on the KH II version while adding my own spin to it. I will not be repeating any of the mistakes of the sequel but I will keep the good ideas that KH II kept. Also I want to show my gratitude yet again to SPYRO 101 who was there to help me with this chapter. Thank you so much!

"Also a certain comedic genius who's looking a little blue is going to make an appearance in this chapter." Maverick mused.

"STAY OUT OF MY SPOTLIGHT SMITH! THIS IS MY GIG!"

Who said that?!

"You'll find out soon." Maverick smirked.

Haxorus knight: Oh Stormur is going to make some action happen on this world.

"Blow me Stormur." Maverick snapped at his arch enemy.

"Don't worry babe. I've saved a big one for him." Blaze smirked sinisterly at Stormur.

KingdomWarrior125: Thank you! Believe me you'll love what's about to happen next.

SPYRO 101: Thank you! Also good eye for catching that little typo I made with Jiminy. I managed to fix that way before I posted this chapter. Thanks again for helping me to get this done!

olehbilenko93: Thank you. I appreciate it.

RustyPete12: Thank you! Trust me when I say this. If you thought that last chapter was funny. By the time you reach the very end of this one. You'll laugh so much, your spin will ache. LOL!

Alright now that were all here! Come on down, stop on by. Hop a carpet and fly. And most of all...

Let's Get Dangerous!

Arabian Nights!

Down at the Buzzar...

The team was walking through the busy streets of Agrabah. Victoria and Aiden were used to blending in with the crowd of a different world and culture. While Kairi was rather new at this. Wearing a revealing outfit while barefoot is something she wasn't use to, even at the beach she would dress decent but this was out of her and Victoria's comfort zone. Thankfully no one was looking at them as if their exotic looking outfits were casual. So Victoria stayed close to Aiden and Kairi just focused on following Sora's lead. Even though this was rather new to Sora as well. He was used to most worlds being empty because of the Heartless invasion of his last adventure.

Last year Agrabah was empty because of Jafar and the Heartless. Now it's crowded like an Arabian Black Friday. With merchants stalls and vendors trying to sell to the public.

Aiden noticed some little kids running and playing through the streets.

"Keep an eye on your pockets. Some of these Street Rugrats might think of them as an ATM." Aiden advised the team.

"I'm just lucky that the pockets are the only thing they'll probably look at." Victoria muttered as she felt a little uncomfortable walking through the streets in a revealing outfit. Thankfully she was. also relieved that no one was looking at her.

"Pretty lady, buy a pot? No finer pot in brass or silver." A merchant offered Kairi with a friendly smile.

"Oh no thanks. I... got one for my birthday." Kairi politely declined.

"Sugar dates?! Sugar dates and figs?! Sugar dates and pistachios?!" A merchanted offered with enthusiasm to Victoria.

"Nope, sorry. I'm watching my weight." Victoria forced a nervous smile and groaned with an annoying smile. "In this goddamn outfit."

"Would the ladies like a necklace? A pretty necklace for pretty ladies?" Another merchant offered while showing the jewelry he was selling.

"I'd hate to see what crap they try to sell to the boys out here." Victoria whispered to Kairi.

"FRESH FISH! YOU CATCH THEM YOU BUY THEM?!" A merchant held up a large fish at Aiden who ignored him.

"Eh...No I'm very liquid right now." Aiden deadpanned to the guy while walking up to the team quickly and muttered humorously. "Actually I'm more than liquid, and I bet that fish wished he was too."

Meanwhile there was a familiar small bird flying around from the roofs. Staring down at the Guardians. Curiously. Mostly at Sora, Donald and Goofy.

The team passed by a couple or street performers who were doing some tricks that no one should ever do. Kairi looked intrigued and cringed a bit seeing a man swallow swords while passing commoners were dropping coins near him.

"Damn. That sword goes down a lot better then my uncle's Flammy Stew." Aiden mused seeing the sword swallower.

"Ugh. Remind me never to try your uncle's cooking." Sora said while looking a tad bit green.

That same small bird from earlier was perched on an archway looking down curiously at the team. This bird in fact was not just any bird. But a scarlet macaw parrot. A talking one. This parrot was also the sidekick of the evil ex advisor Jafar.

This parrot's name was Iago.

"Hmmm...is it just me? Or does the kid in the large slippers look familiar?" Iago whispered to himself. Pondering if he remembers who Sora was.

Thankfully for Iago. He was too high up on the rooftop for them to see him.

Then when the team went around a corner toward an empty street. Iago saw Goofy and Donald. Then he finally realized.

"Wait. That's the kid with giant magic key thingy!" Iago exclaimed. " But what happened to that weird dress he used to wear? Ahh it doesn't matter. They're my ticket to getting close to Aladdin without becoming served with falafel!"

Iago flew down to talk to them. Since they were the only ones that weren't in the castle. They won't call any guards on the bird. But Iago didn't account for the fact that Sora and his friends are more dangerous than any palace guards.

While Goofy was watching with the team. He quirks his eyebrows hearing the sound of flapping feathers. He turned to see Iago flying around him slowly.

"Uh oh! Hey guys!" Goofy alarmed some of the team members.

"What's wrong Goofy?" Kairi asked as she turned to see Iago flying around him. She beamed. "Awe look, Goofy made a friend."

Aiden and Victoria turned around to see it too.

"Can a dog own a pet?" Victoria muttered.

"In some worlds, I guess. Though I'm pretty sure with Donald, this would look like slavery." Aiden remarked on the fact that he's a bird.

"Hey!" Donald scowled and turned around. Then the duck's eyes widened. "Waak! It's Iago!"

"IAGO?!" Sora exclaimed in shock before summoning his keyblade, preparing for a possible attack.

"Wait who's Iago? Is he standing behind the malnourished toucan?" Aiden inquired looking confused.

"Hey! Who are you calling toucan?!" Iago scowled waving his wing like a fist.

"Okay?" Aiden looked with a curious but deadpan expression. "Third time's the charm on obnoxious parrots."

First the talking parrot at the Timeless River. Then Cotton's Parrot back at Port Royal. And now this.

"Yeah and his squawk is just as bad as his bite. " Sora said, not taking his eyes off Iago.

"Wait, you know this bird? " Kairi asked.

"Yeah. His name's Iago." Sora said as his eyes narrowed on the flying menace. "He was working with Jafar the last time we were here. This little buzzard was his right hand pet."

Aiden and Victoria recognized the name Jafar from the files on Sora's last adventure.

"Ah well in that case." Aiden conjured up an ice bird cage around Iago and let it fall on the ground.

"Hey!" Iago was trapped in a cage.

"Vic. got any chicken fried hurt options?" Aiden asked his girlfriend.

"Would you like him as a KFC sandwich or a Popeyes family meal?" Victoria smirked as she listed her patterns to kill the bird.

"Why don't we just put a corsage on him and take him to the prom? Come on girl! Work with me!" Aiden humorously exclaimed.

"Well in that case. I'll go with the Syrian Fattet Djaj." Victoria gave Iago a sinister look.

"Hell yeah! A down home favorite. Make it happen babe." Aiden approved. Then he winked at the team. "Stand back. The kitchen is about to get humid."

Then Victoria formed a cleaver and tongs made of fire as she slowly approaches Iago who was backing up fearfully in the cage.

"WAIT! YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG! I'M A STRAIGHT BIRD NOW!" Iago screamed in fear.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Sora asked his arms crossed.

"It means no more scams! The old me is gone! I turned over a new feather! Please call your lady butcher off!" Iago pleaded.

"Bet that's your new scam." Sora scoffed not believing Iago.

Aiden still has the ability to detect if any living creature is lying. Human or animal. So he looks at Iago with a curious stare.

"Uh... Spike? I can't believe I'm saying this. But you know about my lie detecting senses I told you about? Weirdly enough. Nothing is buzzing." Aiden quirked his eyebrows.

"You've gotta be kidding. " Sora said, slumping down slightly knowing that Aiden was speaking the truth.

"You mean Iago's tellin the truth?" Goofy asked in surprise.

"Ahhh. I don't believe it! " Donald grumpily replies folding his arms.

"Vic. Turn the stove off. We'll find a chicken version of Bin Laden to try those tools later." Aiden told his girlfriend to stand down.

"Alright then." Victoria sighed and caused her tools to vanish.

"Okay Binky spill it. Since you're somewhat legit. What are you doing here? And please don't scream it cause no offense, my ears feel like they're bleeding." Aiden told the bird while picking up the ice bird cage.

"Okay. Uh... Well. I was stuck in Jafar's lamp, see. You know the one he had when he became a Genie and was The one that was locked in the Cave Of Wonders. Well I was his practical cellmate." Iago began explaining. Nervously.

"Hence the 'I was locked in his lamp' quote." Aiden Deadpanned.

"Exactly! Now you're getting it." Iago beamed.

"I was being sarcastic Potty." Aiden rolled his eyes.

"Are you kiddin- You were supposed to use a sarcastic voice! Now I look even worse than bad! I look STUPID!" Iago pulled feathers out of his hair in frustration.

"I am Groot." Baby Groot crossed his arms and snorted

"Get on with it." Sora said sharply to the bird.

"Right. So one moment it's nothing but days and months of endless darkness. Nothing to do but sulk while dealing with Jafar's twenty-four-seven on going rant about how he lost and how it was all my fault! AS IF I WAS THE ONE HOLDING THE SNAKE ROD!...But then the next moment. Out of the blue. I woke up on a rooftop up there. I don't know how. But as I was coming to. I saw some weird looking fat cat in skinny shorts. And he was with that witch with the horns in rags! You know, the one Jafar was in cahoots with?!" Iago revealed.

Aiden nodded to the team letting them know he's telling the truth.

"Sounds like he saw Maleficent and Pete." Goofy figured.

"Ah Phooey. " Donald whined.

"Great. So they're up to no good….. again." Sora said with his arms crossed.

"What were they doing here?" Victoria asked Iago.

"I'm not sure. But I heard them talking about taking over this town using some kind of square shaped jewel called... Ugh I can't remember." Iago calmly explained, then pleaded. "But the jewel had a weird magic looking glow! And not something to admire but something to be vexed by! You gotta go warn Aladdin and Jasmine! They're in serious danger!"

"Right. I don't know about Woodstock here. But I suggest we warn whoever runs this town about the danger." Aiden advised the team. as if he didn't listen to the last part Iago said.

"But that's what I was trying to sa- ah!" Iago was cut off from Aiden dropping the cage but it didn't break.

"Still. Iago did just warn us about that witch and Pete. We wouldn't have known if he hadn't told us. I think we owe him. Right Sora?" Kairi said, hoping Sora would agree with her.

"I don't know. I mean after everything he did..." Sora started with hesitance in his voice.

"That still doesn't fix what he did." Donald scowled with his arms crossed.

They knew Iago wasn't lying because of Aiden's ability to detect lies. But it didn't change the fact that Iago's actions nearly helped plunge this world into darkness.

"Come on guys, trust me on this." Kairi moved to stand right in front of him, and gave him a puppy eye look "Please Sora, for me?"

Sora was breaking. Her puppy eyes were his greatest weakness. Added to the fact of her new attire, made it even more impossible to resist.

Sora sighed. "Alright Kairi. I'll trust your judgement."

Kairi smiles and hugs her crush. "Thank you Sora." she says, still hugging him, the poor boy now blushing like mad again.

"Young love?" Iago asked Aiden.

"Is there any better?" Aiden shrugged for his answer, smiling at them.

After Kairi was done hugging Sora. The young keyblade went up to Iago and looked down at him in the cage.

"Alright Iago. I guess we owe you, a little bit. But you'll have to win over Aladdin and Jasmine's trust yourself. We'll take you to them, but after that. We make no promises on what they'll decide for you. So if I were you. I'd make sure I'm on my best behavior. Got it?" Sora said to Iago with a stern look.

"Otherwise I'll let Groot get seconds." Aiden warned.

As he pointed at Baby Groot who was standing next to Iago's cage eating a chicken wing and smiling sinisterly at Iago. Which made the bird gulp.

"Cross my heart and hope not to die." Iago nervously promised with a nod.

"Okay... Question. How are we going to get into the palace? It's not like I can't use my royal badge. Arendelle wasn't even founded until a century after this world's Era." Aiden pointed out.

"Mmm. Maybe we can get in there anyway." Goofy said, thinking. "Aladdin and Jasmine know us. And we helped save Jasmine. Maybe we can ask the guards to let them know we're here and want to say hello."

"Goofy. Do you remember the last time we were there? THERE WERE NO GUARDS OR PEOPLE AROUND!" Donald exclaimed and added. "They won't take our word for it."

It's not like they can say 'Let us total strangers in. Aladdin and the Princess know us'. They would think they're nuts.

Then Iago came up with an idea in his cage.

"Unless, if you're royal ambassadors from Sherabad bring the daughters of their Sultan over for a visit!" Iago perked up.

"Keep talking." Aiden said wondering what idea Iago had.

"We go in as a royal caravan bringing in your girlfriends posing as the daughters of the Sultan of Sherabad. Agrabah's guards never turn down any form of royalty, and they haven't heard from that kingdom in years." Iago explained his idea. "So they won't get suspicious."

"But they're in good terms with Agrabah right?" Victoria raised her eyebrow.

"Oh yeah, totally." Iago gave two thumbs up with feathers.

Victoria looked at Aiden who nodded saying Iago is telling the truth.

"I'm not going to lie. Because mostly he's not lying... That's not a bad idea." Victoria said to the team.

"Wait who's girlfriends? I know you and Aiden together but who else..." Sora figured out that Iago meant both Victoria and Kairi. Which made him groan. "She's not my!...Ugh fine! What will we need first?"

"Well. Typical royal stuck ups coming to visit other royals usually like to be escorted by a parade or an entourage. But I think in this culture. We need to be seen as foreign bodyguards with servants and riding on camels or a litter." Aiden listed the stuff they needed.

"We're….. one man short for the litter." Kairi pointed out.

"Alright then. We'll go with the camels." Aiden figured.

"Where are we going to find two camels through?" Donald asked.

Just then they heard a merchant across the street selling camels calling out to the passing towns people.

"Camels at half price! Camels fit for royalty!" The merchant announced.

The guardians all look at each other thinking the same thing 'what are the odds?'

"Ayuck! Convenient." Goofy mused pointing at the camels.

"Guess I better dust off this old trick." Aiden shrugged as he searched some settings on his ring.

"What old trick?" Kairi asked curiously.

"Remember when I told you about the time I played Joker on stage?" Aiden answered with a question.

"Yeah why?" Kairi tilted her head.

Then Aiden smirked as he shifted into Maverick and activated the shape-shift mod. The one he always uses on stage.

---

Down at the entrance of the palace...

"You're from what again?" Razoul the palace guard captain asked, looking at the new arrivals in confusion and suspicion.

"We, my sibi are from the great shining city of Sherabad. Bringing you the daughters of our beloved Sultan. To your beloved Sultan." Aiden spoke in a Arabian accent.

While he was in a disguise form using his shape-shift Maverick suit. This special Maverick suit's disguise mod made him look like a long bearded middle aged man in fancy white Arabian robes. Suitable for to be a chief steward of the 'princesses'. Who were Victoria and Kairi in their outfits, while wearing pink and purple ribbon silk veil masks. The girls were riding on top of two different camels. Being led by three bodyguards. Sora, Donald and Goofy who were all wearing dessert masks like foreign guards while holding swords.

The only downside is that these camels were cheap for a reason. The seats the girls were on were extremely uncomfortable. But they had to sit on these seats while on their knees to stay on and not fall off. Which was making their bare feet ache on those wooden pads they call camel saddles. But the girls were hiding this fact while acting pompous and sexy. Posing on the camels as if people are taking cameras of their beauty.

So far only Aiden was security taking pictures with his eyes. Mostly of his girlfriend.

"Okay?" Razoul raised an eyebrow.

"The one in purple is the eldest. The blazing Princess Kamala. And her younger sister in pretty pink, is Princess Samia." Aiden introduced the girls while acting regal based on their culture. "I am their chief steward, Altair Ibn La Ahad. And these three are their bodyguards. The 'fowl' with the temper is Subran. Don't talk about his mother, Allah rest her soul. Or he'll go in a heated frenzy. And the jackal head one is his idiot brother. He doesn't talk much, he wasn't taught. That's how he killed his mother. So we call him Goofy. And the main one that's blessed with the spiky hair is Amul. Don't look him in the eye. The last one that did was sent to hell alive."

"Hmph!" Sora made a fake grunt that was convincing with a deadly glare.

"Right you are Amul! We must see the Sultan. He sent us a message regarding a trade in humus. Wine and other deadly unhealthy foods that make us happy." Aiden chuckled like an old servant. "May we go in and see him?"

"I'm not sure…. The sultan is a busy man." Razoul said feeling… slightly suspicious of these guardians in disguise.

"What?! You mean he didn't know we were coming and never prepared for us?! NO WONDER THERE IS NO PARADE AND HALF NAKED EAHIRAS!" Aiden screamed in outrage and inhaled looking fearfully up at Victoria. "Forgive me my princess. Beat me until your happy."

Victoria, who was looking pompous with her lips perked, only responded with a backhand slap in Aiden's face.

"Ow!...She's happy. hehe." He winced from the hit and giggled. Then he stood up looking upset. "Fine! We will go. We'll take our merchandise worth millions and the regards from our Sultan of Sherabad. While you go tell your Sultan of Agrabah. Why your Sultan's next banquet will be an early Ramadan in a grave yard! We'll see who's hand he chops off first! Oh wait, no we won't! You will! Haha! Good day to you until it isn't Sir!"

then they turned and were about to leave until Razoul called them back looking scared.

"WAIT!" Razoul called and ran up to them and dropped with his hands together in front of Aiden and a nervous smile on his face. "Please forgive me. I appear to have forgotten that his Excellency has informed me of your arrival. Honest! "

He gestures towards the palace. "Please go on through. And I hope you continue to enjoy your visit."

"Hmm... I don't know... okay! We'll go in and forget this ever happened. You may kiss the feet of the princesses's camel and thank them for allowing you to keep your hand." Aiden stated to the guard while staying in character.

"Y-yes. Of course." Razoul stutters before dropping to his hands and knees to kiss the feet of the camels. "Thank you for letting me keep my hand." he continues to kiss the camel's feet in disgust and fear.

The girls held back a giggle as they covered their mouths.

"Come along my pomegranates. The Sultan of Agrabah awaits!" Aiden announced as Sora, Donald and Goofy marched forward with Aiden up front. Once they passed the main courtyard and up the white stairs into the palace entrance hall. And they all snickered.

"I can't believe that worked." Donald laughed.

"Believe it Subran." Aiden said in his fake accent while laughing and he said in his normal Maverick voice. "Which is why we better keep this scheme rolling to blend in until we find Aladdin or the Princess."

"Right. Let's stay in character guys. Follow me and Aid's lead." Sora whispered.

"Do we have to stay up here though? My feet are killing me." Kairi whined as she felt rather cramped on those cheap camel saddles. Victoria felt the same way.

"Just a bit further my honey figs." Aiden said in his Arabian accent which earned a few snickers from Sora.

---

So the team stayed in formation and led the two girls on their own uncomfortable camels around the palace. Passing a few halls and a couple of white staircases, until they made it to the Palace Gardens. Where there was a large white bird cage with a gold roof like the palace towers. Housing many different exotic birds. There were also some flowers surrounding the greenery area.

Along with several trees surrounding the garden. trees are large and spread out while bushes are between each tree, also being closer to the teal marble ground area, shaped like a square in the center of the gardens for people to walk and meet and observe the beautiful greenery. And the bushes were trimmed to look almost like pillars.

And at the center of the teal marble court was a water fountain was a large circular fountain with water coming out from the top of the fountain and into a large bowl like structure at the center, with the edges of the top of the bowl being designed like a wavy pattern, with the water from the bowl flowing between the waves creating several steady showers going into the main pool of the fountain. On top of the center of showers was a teal marble peacock statue.

There was only one person out there currently. Sitting at the edge of the fountain lost in thought.

It was a girl in long blue pants, yellow shoes and a matching blue bra. She had a gold tiara with a blue gem on her head, placed on the fore center of her ebony hair. The girl appeared to be about the same age as Kairi and Victoria. Maybe a bit older.

"That's her. That's Jasmine." Sora whispered to Aiden.

"Okay. Follow my lead." Aiden whispered back as he led them up to the gardens towards the princess.

Unfortunately Jasmine was there rubbing and stroking the fur of a large tiger named Raja who was laying on the ground next to her. But once Raja saw the team coming toward them He thought they were unannounced visitors. So the tiger stood up at them angrily like a guard dog as they were slowly approaching the princess.

The Guardians in disguise pause in their movement as the tiger growled and bared her teeth at them. Donald and Goofy shivered in fear while Baby Groot clinged to Victoria up on the camel. Jasmine turned to see them and placed her hand on the tiger's head to ease his aggression towards them.

"Easy Raja, it's okay." Jasmine said, while scratching the back of Raja's ear to get him to settle down, all the while, keeping her guard up in case they were 'unwanted guests' looking for trouble.

"Who are you? What is it you want?" Jasmine asks calm but stern tone to let Raja know to be ready for anything.

"Greeting Princess. We come bearing an important message for you." Aiden said in his Arabian accent as he approached Jasmine leaned up at her ear and whispered in his normal voice. "May your heart be your guiding key."

All the Princesses of Heart knows what that phrase means. And if you tell them these exact words. That means one thing to all of them.

Jasmine's eyes widened in surprise. "You're a keyblade wielder?" She asked Aiden.

Aiden then shifted out of his shape-shifted Maverick suit and stood in his normal but in his newly acquired Arabian attire.

"Pretty much. The name is Aiden Elsenov. I am the current Maverick. And I think you may know these three stooges." Aiden gestured over to Sora. Donald and Goofy. Who all dropped their swords and masks.

"Hey! What were you calling stooge?!" Donald snapped at Aiden.

"Hiyah Jasmine! Ayuck!" Goofy greeted with a wave.

"How is it going?" Sora stood up and smiled.

When Jasmine recognized the three, her face lit up with happiness. She remembered them as the ones who teamed up with Aladdin. And Jasmine was there on Hollow Bastion with the other Princesses who helped Sora close the Door to Darkness.

"SORA! DONALD! GOOFY!" she exclaimed before running up to them and pulling them into a group hug. "It's so good to see all of you! It's been so long."

Donald and Goofy hugged back including Sora.

"Haha. Too long Jasmine. How have you been these days?" Sora asked with a smile.

"I've been great. Wonderful in fact, Aladdin and I have been married for almost a year now. " Jasmine said with a big smile on her face.

The trio were excited to hear that.

"OH BOY!" Donald shouted excitedly.

"Congratulations! Ayuck!" Goofy said.

"I'm happy for you two." Sora said giving Jasmine a thumbs up.

"Thanks. I appreciate it." Jasmine giggled out before looking at Sora up and down. "Wow Sora, you've grown quite a bit since the last time you were here. And what's with the change in your attire?"

"Yeah I have gotten a bit bigger huh?" Sora says scratching the back of his head bashfully. "As for the clothes, since Agrabah is a lot more populated since the last time we were here, we had to change in order to blend in better and not attract attention."

"Unfortunately!" Victoria added from up on her camel. "Sorry I didn't mean to interrupt."

"No problem babe. You and Kairi come down now." Aiden responded up to the girls.

Kairi and Victoria dropped the veil masks and came down from their camels to stretch their bare legs. their feet felt sore from squatting on those saddles for too long.

"Jasmine. Meet the new members of our team." Sora introduced the others.

"Well technically you joined my team and hijacked it. But I digress." Aiden deadpanned humorously.

Sora grinned and rolled his eyes. "Anyway this is Aiden . Over there is his girlfriend Victoria. And my girlfrien- I mean friend! My friend... Kairi."

"Hi." Kairi shyly waved.

"Oh Kairi." Jasmine said in recognition of who she was. "You're the seventh princess of heart. We didn't get the chance to talk before you left with Sora. It's good to finally meet you properly." She says as she gives the younger girl a hug.

"I agree Princess Jasmine." Kairi said while hugging her back.

Jasmine then moves to shake Victoria's hand while saying. "And it's good to meet you too Victoria."

"Thanks." Victoria replied, shaking her hand back.

"And it's a pleasure to finally meet a legendary Maverick." Jasmine then moved to shake Aiden's hand.

"You too. I'm assuming you've heard of my past predecessors?" Aiden grinned while shaking her hand.

"Oh of course. The Maverick visited our kingdom centuries ago. According to our history. He saved my fifth great grandfather from a sky demon invasion." Jasmine stated some interesting facts about the third Maverick.

"She's probably referring to the Kree invasion that took place in history here. This kingdom was saved by the third Maverick." Victoria explained to Kairi about this story she heard from Aiden from.

"Anyway make yourselves at home, feel free to use the fountain to sooth your tired feet." Jasmine offered to the girls.

"Thanks you." Victoria and Kairi exhaled at the same time before they sat on the edge of the fountain and dipping their bare feet in the water. Which helped them relax their sore soles.

"Speaking of sky demons. That's my little animal-ish sidekick of mine is Groot. " Aiden quipped at Baby Groot who was on the ground being licked by Raja, gigging at a tiger.

"I am Groot?!" Groot asked Aiden, enjoying the attention from the friendly tiger.

"No we can't get a tiger of our own. I mean it would be awesome to have one to guard our lair, but Mom would put me on ice for bringing one home, literally." Aiden answered humorously.

Jasmine giggled at Baby Groot and Aiden's antics. And was delighted to see her pet tiger making a new little friend.

"He's cute. Can you really understand him?" Jasmine asked about Baby Groot.

"Oh yeah it's all about connection and reading in between the fonts." Aiden stated before he spoke to his ring. "IRIS. Use the ship's teleporter and set these two furry humps free. They did the job."

to beam the camels to a different location.

'Right away Maverick.' IRIS responded and the Starburst's teleporter activated around the camels and beamed the camels to a new location in Agrabah.

Much to Jasmine's fascination.

"HEY!" they hear someone yell from the entrance to the gardens. They turn to see an angry Razoul marching towards them. "You runts are not from Sherabad! Who are you?! And why shouldn't I have you all thrown in the dungeon?!" He said reaching for his sword ready to draw and arrest.

"We're busted." Donald sighed.

"Hehe... We... Had to pretend to be foreign Representatives to get in here. Can you call off your second guard dog?" Sora muttered nervously to Jasmine.

Jasmine giggled finding it amusing.

"Don't worry. I'll take care of this." Jasmine said before walking up to Razoul. "Guard, you may be at ease. These people are friends of mine. They are permitted to be here and are allowed to come and go as they please."

This shocked Razoul. "B-but your highness-"

"No buts." Jasmine interrupted sternly. "They are to be treated as you would treat me. Do I make myself clear?"

The guard looks conflicted before conceding. "Yes Princess Jasmine." Razoul bowed in obedience.

"Good. You may leave us. And inform the rest of the guards of my orders. " Jasmine says before gesturing with her hand to leave them be.

Razoul bows his head in respect and turns to leave, giving Aiden a dirty look before leaving. He knew Aiden was disguised as a steward and made him kiss those camels' feet.

"Damn girl, you got Rover on a tight leash." Aiden quipped at Jasmine after Razoul was gone.

"And to think you were ten seconds away from freezing him and dropping him in the rose bushes." Victoria said while she was still relaxing her bare feet in the fountain.

"Yeah but that would've been rude and a waste of a future highlight." Aiden quipped back before looking at Jasmine. "Anyway there's another reason here."

"Okay?" Jasmine listened.

"We ran into a tiny little snitch that says he's coming clean. And I know he's not lying because Aiden's magical powers allow him to tell when someone is lying. So were about to bring him to you. Just promise you won't get mad and freak out." Sora explained.

"Don't worry. I promise I won't. But who are we talking about?" Jasmine asked curiously.

Sora, Donald and Goofy narrowed their eyes as Aiden pulled an ice birdcage out of his magic ring's hollo-storage. And Aiden puts the cage on the ground. revealing Iago who was locked in the cage.

" Hehe... This is awkward." Iago looked nervous with a meek smile and small wave. "Hi Princess."

"IAGO?!" Jasmine shouted in shock before her expression morphs into anger. She reached down and grabbed the cage and began to shake it causing Iago to yelp and scream. "You have some nerve showing your face here! After everything you've done! What do you have to say for yourself?! Answer me!" She says before finally ceasing the shaking of the cage.

"Uh…. Well." Iago blurted out trying to compose himself before speaking "I-"

"Shut up! I don't want to hear anymore of your lies!" She interrupts angrily. "I ought to have you plucked and confined for a hundred years!"

"So much for not getting angry and freaking out." Aiden mumbled under his breath.

Raja came over and growled at Iago in the cage as well. Baring his full teeth at the bird

"Well this ought to be epic." Victoria muttered as Kairi stood up from the fountain and ran over to Jasmine.

"Jasmine, relax! Iago's not going to hurt anyone. We've made sure of that. He told us what our enemies are up to. And we're one step ahead of them because of the info he gave us." Kairi explained why they brought Iago there.

"So as a deal we brought him here so he can redeem himself." Sora deadpanned looking down at the bird.

"What?! But but you said you'd help me explain that-" Iago looked worried.

"No the deal was to bring you here. What happens now is up to Princess Arabian Blues. It's been nice knowing you binky. Not really." Aiden mocked a wave goodbye.

"I am Groot." Baby Groot mocked a wave as well.

"Please you all gotta believe me! Jafar was a manipulative piece of work! You don't know what it's like to be treated like a dumb animal! Getting kicked and beaten with a stick until someone who sees you beyond the norm comes along to rescue you! And treats you more than what others do!" Iago pleaded revealing part of his back story.

Which kind of struck a nerve with Aiden a little.

"I kinda do actually...Ugh...Having a conscience sucks." Aiden muttered to himself. "Fine. But it's still up to her."

Aiden was gesturing to Princess Jasmine. Meeting she calls the shots on what happens to Iago now.

"It's like I said. Aiden has an ability to know when someone is lying." Sora spoke up for his friend. "Iago is really telling the truth.'

"I'm not going to tell you what you should do with this small red McNugget. But something tells me there's more behind the evil eye curtain." Aiden advised Jasmine. "It seems Jafar. Whatever he was like, had more victims in his clutches than we thought... He had clutches right? Or did he have just one hand? "

Jasmine of course pondered to what Aiden was saying. She had to admit. Iago's confession sounded genuine and Aiden has a point. Jasmine thought about it for a moment more before sighing.

"Alright. I'll give Iago a chance to make up for his previous actions." she said to everyone. They all smiled at her kindness.

Iago who was still in the ice cage, smiled at Jasmine with his hands clasped together. "Oh thank you I-"

"BUT!" Jasmine interrupted sternly to Iago "know that this is your only chance. And you are the one who will have to convince Aladdin to give you a chance. And if you break our trust, I will personally see you roasted over a spick. Am I clear?" She finishes menacingly.

"C-crystal. " Iago stammered nervously and gulped.

"Speaking of Aladdin. Where is he by the way?" Sora asked.

"Oh um... He hasn't been himself lately." Jasmine rubbed her arm looking down sadly.

"Oh no. Don't tell me he's seeing other people!" Donald looked worried.

Jasmine's eyes widened and waved her hands. "No no! Nothing like that." She chuckled a little and sighed. "It's just. Most days he's his usual cheerful self. But other days, like recently he has been rather distant... And unhappy."

"Did you ever talk it out with him?" Sora asked out of concern.

"I try to. But every time I do. He always says he doesn't want to talk about it. And he leaves the palace to go off by himself. He keeps telling me nothing is wrong. But... I don't know." Jasmine sat by the fountain looking down sadly.

"Gawrsh. So this is one of those days?" Goofy asked, feeling sympathetic for Jasmine.

The princess nodded and looked up at them with fear in her eyes. "What if he doesn't come back this time?"

"Don't worry Jasmine." Sora says with confidence "I know Aladdin would never do that to you. He loves you too much."

"Speaking from experience there Spike?" Aiden asked humorously.

Sora blushed. "It's not like that! Kairi and I are just friends!" He snapped back at his friend.

"I didn't say anything about Kairi. You did." Aiden quipped back.

"Well uh- I…" Sora stuttered trying to come up with a comeback.

But in the end, he slumped over and groaned. This causes the others to laugh with Kairi giggling and blushing. Even Jasmine got a chuckle out of the interaction between the two boys.

"But yeah. I've been there before. Not with Vic over there but with my family back home. When you've spent years in a life with limitations and needs. You will always desire more. But once you've finally got it and your dreams came true. You realize you're still young and fresh. And the next thing you'll realize is. It's too easy now." Aiden spoke from experience.

"What do you mean?" Jasmine tilted her head curiously.

"I've read the story in the reports and everything that happened between you two. Aladdin had the life that you always wanted. Not being tied by royal protocol. And what my Mom calls the 8th deadliest sin called formalities." Aiden did air quotes. "Where as you had the life Aladdin always wanted. A decent and easy life where he wasn't struggling to survive and having to steal for his meals. Both of you had exactly what each other wanted and yet he's starting to realize the limitations from your end."

"So what you're saying..." Jasmine began to understand. "Is that while he is happy with his new life, he misses not being bound by formalities and rules. Just like I was."

"But there's a cure to this mild home sick-itis. He gained an interest in your life because he fricken adores you. So maybe you should gain an interest in his life. I don't mean go and steal crap. I mean travel the world. Go on adventures or as the big boys call it, a 'vacation'. Discover new sites and meet new people. The world is one giant globe for a reason. And maybe this world is meant to be your palace with Aladdin... I know that sounds corny but you know what I mean. This kingdom is just a fraction of what life really is." Aiden spoke out of wisdom and experience.

Jasmine closed her eyes in thought. A few moments later, they opened, revealing a new spark to them.

"You're right. There is so much more to see beyond this city." Jasmine said with confidence. "When Aladdin comes home, he and I will go out and see what this world has to offer."

"That's the spirit!" Donald beamed.

"But also we need to address what Chicken Little over there told us." Victoria gestured over at Iago in the cage. "Maleficent is back. And she's with a feline overweight henchman named Pete. Iago claims he saw them in Agrabah with a magic jewel in the shape of a square."

Jasmine's eyes widened. She knew Maleficent from when she was kidnapped a year ago along with the over seven Princesses.

"Maleficent?!… Wait a minute." Jasmine realized something and stood up walking towards the palace library. "Follow me."

The team wasn't sure what Jasmine was on to so they followed her to see what she was going to show them.

---

Inside the palace Library...

The team stood by wondering what Jasmine was looking for. As the Princess was searching through shelves of different scrolls arranged in order by numbers of volumes and alphabetized in their language.

Just then Jasmine pulled out a scroll and opened it to read if it was what she was looking for.

"Here it is!" Jasmine smiled relieved that she still had the scroll.

"What is?" Sora asked as Jasmine went over to Iago.

The bird who was on a table, still in his ice cage as the princess showed him what was in the scroll.

"Did the jewel look like this?" Jasmine asked Iago.

Iago observed the hieroglyphic image in the scroll and pondered as he squinted his eyes.

"Hmmm... I'm not sure. It kinda does but the shape is all. Wrong. The fat cat holding it was twiddling with it on the side like a broken wooden spinner." Iago rambled trying to figure it out.

Jasmine rolled her eyes and turned the scroll on the side in front of Iago.

"THAT'S IT! I never forgot that shape! Only it was red and had an ear numbing screeching sound." Iago beamed pointing at the image.

Jasmine looked worried. as she put the scroll down and looked at the team.

"I was afraid of this. But I think I know what Maleficent is after. And she only has one of them." Jasmine feared.

"One of what? What does she have?" Sora asked out of concern.

"The Rubalkhali Stone." Jasmine stated grimly.

"The what?" Sora asked in confusion.

"The Rubalkhali Stone. It's an ancient gemstone which originated in the lost city of Ubar. It was a powerful artifact that granted the holder the ability to bend reality to their will." Jasmine said shocking everyone present.

"Great. Just what we needed. Another pretty mystical rock." Victoria faced palmed herself.

Victoria was referring to the M'Kraan crystal from she and Aiden's last adventure.

"I am Groot?" Baby Groot groaned looking annoying.

"No, I don't think the multiverse can be original...Sometimes it can. But I digress." Aiden answered Groot before he looked at Jasmine. "By Ubar. As in, Iram Of The Pillars? The Atlantis Of The Sands? The city that King Solomon went to war with?"

"That's right. Only the legend may be a tad different here than on your world. " Jasmine claimed before looking through the scrolls.

"In what way?" Kairi asked with curiosity.

She had always been a fan of ancient legends and myths ever since her grandmother told her the legend of kingdom hearts.

Jasmine opened a new scroll enticing everyone to look.

"Well.. History tells us that a great man named Solomon. Son of King David. Ruler of Israel. Was blessed with wisdom and knowledge that made his kingdom prosper. But Solomon's success attracted many enemies. Like King Siran of Ubar. Thus the army of Ubar went to conquer Jerusalem. But Solomon's army fought back and carried the war back to wear it started in Siran's home land. With the failure of Iram assured. King Siran used the power of the Rubalkhali Stone to give his own army a fighting chance against King Solomon's forces." Jasmine said before pointing to a picture of the stone being fractured. "But King Siran made a mistake. He used too much of the stone's power at once, and it backfired on himself and his army, shattering the stone into three pieces. Thus Iram and their army were both destroyed. And their city sank into the depths of the Rub' al Khali desert."

"And the three pieces of the stone. What happened to them?" Victoria asked, a serious look on her face.

"King Solomon decided that such power should not be in the hands of mortal men. So he had the stones hidden away by his most trusted servants to prevent anyone from using them again. And since then, the stone fragments were never seen again, lost to the sands of time." Jasmine said before saying grimly "Until today."

"Man that would make one hell of a mini series." Aiden muttered impressed by how epic this tale sounded.

"Okay so we know that Maleficent has one of the stones. And she needs the rest to use its power. So the only question is." Kairi pondered.

"Where are the other two?" Victoria figured.

"Maybe we don't have to find all three." Aiden said while leaning on a table, which made his team look at him. "I mean. If the Gang Green Witch needs all three to use it, then we just find one and dump it down the garbage disposal."

"Mmm... Actually I was thinking." Goofy got everyone's attention. "If Maleficent need all three pieces to use the stone's power, why not just destroy one of the fragments?"

"That's what he meant by throwing it into a garbage disposal you big palooka! " Donald snapped at Goofy.

"Oh. I get it now. Ayuck!" Goofy replied back.

Donald sighs in exasperation.

"I'm afraid that would make things worse." Jasmine dejected, pointing to one of the scrolls. "King Solomon predicted that if one the shards were destroyed, it would create an explosion capable of destroying the entire world. So unless you can find a place where the explosion won't end the world, that's out of the question."

"Okay then let's go drop it down in the Cars world." Aiden quipped.

"Aiden..." Victoria gave him a warning glare.

"Kidding! I'm kidding." Aiden held his hands and suggested. "Well we can't just leave it here. I have several contacts from a few different worlds who could take the stone for safe keeping. But we'll cross that bridge when we get to it."

"So how do we find the stones?" Kairi asked.

"Watch this." Aiden grinned and requested the Princess. "Jasmine, hold up the image up in front of me."

"Sure." Jasmine opened the scroll and held up the image of the Rubalkhali stone in front of Aiden.

Aiden then stared at the image then focused. As he concentrated, Aiden's eyes began to glow blue. Then a light beam flashed from his eyes and flared a beam going up and down the image like a scanner, much to their amazement. Then once his eyes stopped glowing he gestured to Jasmine that she could put the image down. Then Aiden pulled up IRIS on his ring.

" IRIS. Can you find three mystical objects that match with this data?" Aiden asked his computer.

"He's what we call a tech wiz. It's among his many charms." Sora remarked to Jasmine about Aiden's abilities and mental compacity. And his genius level.

"Fascinating." Jasmine said impressed by how amazing Aiden's powers, technology and magic really are.

Then IRIS spoke from his ring.

'Unfortunately there's no sign for a third. But I do have the location of two stones matching the data. One is located in an empty tomb called The Cave of Wonders. and the other is here in the Sultan' s throne room.' IRIS revealed.

"One of the pieces has been here the whole time?" Jasmine spoke with surprise.

But before they could process this revealing fact. Razoul bursts through the doors with several guards looking troubled.

"YOUR HIGHNESS! PRINCESS!" Razoul exclaimed.

"The Sultan has been kidnapped!" One of the guards stressed.

"WHAT?!" the team shouted all at once.

"Father! Who took him?!" Jasmine demanded.

"It was some demon in a red and black metal suit, with two large key like swords!" Razoul described.

"Ahhhh... Crap." Aiden groaned, hanging his head back. "Can that asshole ever give me a break?!"

Aiden knew it was Dianex. And he sure picked a swell time to cause some trouble.

"Wait, Aiden. You know who kidnapped my father?" Jasmine turned to him.

"I knew it! I knew these runts couldn't be trust! They're with the kidnapper! I'll have your hands for this! Especially you ya little street Demon!" Razoul drew his sword and glared threateningly at Aiden.

Then Aiden shifted into Maverick and he stood up to Razoul looking intimidating. Aiden never liked being called a demon. Hearing someone call him that stings his heart worse then anyone could realize.

"Go ahead CSI: Arabia. Stab me and see what happens." Maverick threatened Razoul back.

"Aiden! " Victoria put her hands on his shoulders. "Calm down! This pile of camel shit is not worth it!"

"Who are you callin?! Why you!" Razoul was about to lash at Victoria when Jasmine intervened.

"Razoul! Stand down! Now!" Jasmine ordered, leaving no room for him to defy her order.

Razoul begrudgingly stands down.

"Aiden." Jasmine turns to Maverick. "I apologize for his behavior. Now would you please tell me, how do you know the one who kidnapped my father?"

"He's a dark and brooding wannabe version of me from an Organization of back pains. There's more to it then that, but it will have to wait for now." Maverick quickly informed Jasmine before turning to Sora. "You know what to do Spike."

Sora nodded and then Maverick flew out of the window towards the throne room on the other side of the palace. Sora turned to the team as stood ready for action.

"Alright guardians we need to act fast! Kairi you're with me. We need to search the town and find Aladdin. Tori you're with Aiden. Go and help him stop Stormur. Donald. Groot. Goofy. Stay here and protect the princess. Let's roll." Sora gave the order like a natural born leader.

"Right!" they all replied.

"Come with us Princess. Stay close." Donald guarded one side of Jasmine.

"We'll protect ya." Goofy took the other.

Baby Groot hopped on Jasmine's left shoulder while holding a small wooden club in his tiny hands trying to look intimidating, threatening anyone that might approach the princess.

"I am Groot." He snarled.

"Okay little guy." Jasmine giggled slightly at seeing Groot's attempt at looking menacing before she turned to Sora and Kairi. "Please be careful, and bring Aladdin back safely."

"We will." Kairi nodded before she and Sora jumped out of the window to go find Aladdin.

And then Victoria shifted into Blaze and flew out to go join Maverick in taking down Stormur.

---

Down in the Buzzar...

"ABU! GET BACK HERE!" Aladdin screamed as he was chasing after his pet monkey Abu who stole an art tube from an art merchant.

"Stop! Thieves!" The merchant was chasing after them.

"I didn't steal it, he did!" Aladdin retorted while he was running after Abu through the streets.

(Fun Fact: Aladdin is wearing the outfit he wore in 'Aladdin And The King Of Thieves'. I didn't think much about the sequel but I liked that outfit he wore in that film.)

Kairi and Sora were switching between running through the streets to free flowing across the rooftops, trying to find Aladdin as soon as possible. Running through the streets trying to find him

"Where would we be if we were a dreamer running off on an adventure?" Kairi remarked looking around and standing in the buzzar.

"I don't kno- oh hey I see what you did there." Sora wagged his finger at Kairi who had a smug look.

Just then Abu the monkey ran right past them heading left.

"Huh?" The two raised their eyebrows.

Then they heard running coming from where Abu was just now.

"Abu I swear when I get you!" Aladdin shouted before he smiled and waved passing by Sora. "Hey Sora! Like the new look!" He quickly greeted as he continued running after Abu.

"Aladdin?" Kairi inquired at Sora.

"Aladdin." Sora said with a nod before the two give chase after Aladdin.

They ran after Aladdin as he chased Abu who scaled up to one of the buildings and Aladdin chased him using his parkour skills as a former Street rat.

Abu jumps from roof to roof until just ahead of him. Sora lands in front after using his freeform abilities to catch up with the monkey.

"Caught him!" Sora grabbed Abu who was surprised to see him.

"I'll take this Buster Monk." Kairi scolded the art tube from Abu who was screeching and pleading to look at it.

"Hey!" Aladdin came up and stopped with his hands on his knees trying to catch his breath. "Give...Me...A second." He huffed.

"But but but!" Abu jabbered pointing at the tube.

"No buts Abu." Aladdin stood and wagged his finger at Abu sternfully. "You're in big trouble. And you're lucky they didn't cut off your hand back here."

"They cut off people's hands out here for stealing?" Sora grimaced.

"Sora? Was there ever a time you paid attention in history class?" Kairi bemused.

"Hey I paid attention during history class all the time" Sora protested with a pout.

"Sure you did." Kairi rolled her eyes with her hand on her hip.

"Well look at you. I see you've gotten yourself a sassy date like mine was." Aladdin smirked looking at the two's antics.

Sora dejected. "She's not a date. Honest! Umm... This is Kairi. She's my friend from back home. I mentioned her the last time I was here." he introduced.

"Oh. You mean the girl you wouldn't stop talking about? " Aladdin mused crossing his arms with a smirk.

"Reaaaally?" Kairi mused with sassy smirk at Sora and asked Aladdin. "What did he mentioned about me?"

"Can we please change the subject?" Begged weakly, his face becoming as red as his crush's hair.

Suddenly Heartless appeared around the roof. Each looking like dessert bandits with swords. surrounding Aladdin and the love birds. And Abu.

"Not what I had in mind but okay." Sora summoned his keyblade and Kairi summoned hers and they both stood in a defense.

Aladdin drew his sword out. "Come on! We can take 'em!" He grinned.

"Heck yeah we can!" Sora jumped and slashed at the first one taking it down.

Then Kairi sprung in the air and slashed at three Bandit Heartless that lept towards her. She blocked their sword attacks and shot them down with a spinning fire ball spell.

Sora couldn't help but admire how hot Kairi looked fighting in that outfit.

Sora was still fighting and using magnet spells to lift the heartless off the grown. And Aladdin slashed at them with his sword. Taking them down. Because Aladdin's sword was a special one from the Cave Of Wonders. It held a magic that makes it unbreakable and able to take down the Heartless.

Kairi of course was using her training from back home. And with Victoria. She used some hard blows from not only her weapons. But her leg skills as she was performing cartwheel flips dodging The Bandit Heartless attacks from their swords and she would land and bounce off of several and perform an air kick to their faces. Kairi then land in front of four Bandit Heartless and knocked four off the roof using a roundhouse kick.

Sora felt like time froze when he saw how beautiful her bare feet looked with her using them to kick heartless. And her smooth bare legs gave him goose him everything about Kairi was beautiful.

'Wow. Just. Wow.' Sora thought amazed by Kairi's skill and beauty.

Just then. Five of the Heartless appeared and slithered up. These were a new type of Heartless in the form of dark humanoid serpents. These were called 'Naga Heartless'. They had the lower form of snakes. But their faces were blank and they each had four arms with fiery swords swords

Kairi stood on guard and scoffed at them with her hand waving her hair back. She charged at them.

Sora came back to his senses and ran with her. Using their free form abilities Sora jumped in the air. And Kairi leapt up after him Sora held his keyblade on guard and Kairi's feet bounced off his keyblade and she free fell into the Naga heartless who were slashing and clashing with Aladdin's sword which blocked their attacks.

Then Kairi slammed her keyblade down and caused a small burst of pink light magic. Taking them all out.

Then Sora landed next to her looking epic. Kairi of course looked epic as well. And if Sora could add. Hot.

"Hmph. They weren't so tough." Kairi gloated.

"Nope. You're the real definition of tough." Sora complemented her.

Kairi blushed and smiled. "You think so? "

"I know so." Sora said with what Kairi consider to be, his trademark smile.

"You guys gonna kiss now or what?" Aladdin joked from where he was standing after the battle.

Kairi giggled cutely while Sora rolled his eyes.

"Anyway...What was Abu trying to steal?" Sora asked.

"He was stealing from an art merchant for no reason. Which is something I never taught him to do. I mean I taught him how to snatched Fruit. Bread. Keys and jewels. But never art. That's why he's bad at it and got caught." Aladdin said, scowling down at Abu who looked nervous.

While they were talking. Kairi was curious about the art tube Abu stole. It was laying on the ground due to the fighting earlier. So she bent down to open the tube, unrolled the art sheet and looked at what was on it .

"Hey look! This isn't a piece of art, it's a map." Kairi informed them while holding it up to them.

"Huh? " Sora turned to look at it. "Hey it is a map! But of what?"

Aladdin looked as well and his eyes widened as he recognized the layout of the map. "Oh crap!"

"What's wrong?!" Kairi asked out of concern.

"It's a map of the cave of wonders!" Aladdin revealed looking surprised. "I never forgot the layout of that place."

"Wait! The same cave we met at?" Sora looked surprised. "Didn't me, Donald and Goofy rescue you from that place?"

"Exactly. Only there's more to it then that." Aladdin nodded and gave Abu a remorseful look. "I'm sorry Abu. I didn't know."

Abu chipped saying it's okay with two thumbs up.

"But. What was the art merchant doing with this?" Kairi wondered.

*BOOM!*

Before anyone could answer they heard something that sounded like an explosion coming from the palace. They looked toward the palace and saw the large main tower of the palace collapsing.

"No... Jasmine!" Aladdin yelled with his eyes widened.

"Come on!" Sora ran for the palace.

Kairi and Aladdin followed with Abu on his shoulder. Hurrying to make sure whatever is happening over there doesn't get any worse. And that everyone was okay. Including Jasmine.

---

A few minutes earlier back at the palace...

On the top gold roof of the highest tower of the palace. Stormur stood at the edge of the tower. Staring out while looking as menacing as ever, waiting for his arch foe the Maverick to arrive. Behind Stormur was the Sultan. Who was tied up in neon ropes. Struggling to get out of them as he glared at Stormur.

"Your move Prey... Come on." Stormur snarled as he was starting to get impatient.

"What is the meaning of this?! You won't get away with this! My guards will find me and you will be beheaded for your crimes!" The Sultan yelled trying to intimidate his kidnapper.

"Mhm. That's nice." Stormur ignored him.

Just then his supernatural senses heard a strong wind coming fast. Having the same speed and heightened senses as Maverick. Stormur turned and threw a hard punch toward his incoming opponent. But Maverick who was the one that appeared, blocked his punch with his keyblade. Causing a large clanking sound. Then Maverick flipped over Stormur and stood behind the edge of the roof. While Blaze landed on Stormur's other end. As she stood in front of the Sultan while facing Stormur.

"You're both fashionably late." Stormur remarked at both of them

"Where's the stone?" Blaze demanded.

"You mean this?" Stormur held up the first shard of the Rubalkhali Stone in his hand.

"This is between you, me, and whatever convoluted grudge you obviously have. Leave him out of this." Maverick scowled at Stormur. "And hand over the stone."

"Not happening. Either you stand and die. Or fight and die." Stormur drew his keyblades and connected them like a sharp double end bow staff.

"Multiple choice huh? I think I'll take C. 'None of the above' instead." Maverick held his two keyblades up while Blaze held her keyblades up.

Ready to fight. Stormur made the first move as he spin and attacked Maverick first who blocked his quick thrust. Blaze came in and slashed with him along with Maverick but Stormur was too fast as he kept blocking them.

Both Maverick and Blaze swung their weapons naturally with adhesive precision as they kept spinning their weapons like Jedi Knights. But Stormur was keeping up with them as he kept blocking and thrusting at them.

The Sultan watched in fascination as these two mysterious heroes fought against his kidnapper.

Stormur managed to throw a hard kick at Maverick who grunted and landed on the side of the tower wall. He stood up there as Stormur did the same. And Blaze was still standing behind Stormur.

Things started to pick up when Stormur quickly teleported and reappear behind Maverick and slashed at his back making Maverick groan in pain.

"Alright two and play Nightcrawler!" Maverick yelled as he teleported after Stormur.

Both Maverick and Stormur popping in and out all over the sides of the tower. Teleporting and repairing to slash at each other only for both to block each other. Maverick and Stormur would teleport appear from side to side at each passing second. Slashing and clashing at each other. In the air and then on the wall and on the roof as their fighting continued

Blaze watched and was having a hard time trying to keep up with them but she didn't let them out of her sight while she tried to find an opening.

Just then Stormur managed to grab Maverick's right arm. He pulled real hard with a good grip on his wrist. Then Stormur slammed his Keyblade down and sliced his arm off.

"AAH! ***k Jimmy John's Deli is shit!" Maverick snapped in pain then Stormur punched him hard as Maverick smashed through the middle tower. Causing it to shatter.

*BOOM!*

In anger. Blaze immediately shot multiple fireballs at Stormur who didn't see them coming. Stormur was shot by every fireball grunting in pain as holes appeared everywhere on his armored torso. Then Blaze flew in while Stormur was dazed and she sliced both of his arms off causing him to scream and she struck him down with lightning. Sending Stormur hurling hard onto the ground below.

"***k off from my Man." Blaze said out of love for Maverick.

Just then the tower was beginning to crumple and Maverick flew out looking hurt as he was clenching the stump of his missing arm. Both and and Blaze looked up as the tower was about to fall. Maverick held his one arm out and froze the crack and tried to patch the hole with his one arm.

Blaze flew up to the top of the tower and went up to the Sultan. She tore the neon bindings off of him. Then she picked the Sultan up.

"Hang on!" Then Blaze flew him off the tower and down towards safety.

"OH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!" Sultan echoed as he was flown down.

Meanwhile Maverick was still trying to keep the tower from collapsing. But it was too late. The tower started cracking and shattering all around and it was leaning down towards the courtyard. Stones started falling from the tower and the guards and servants were running and screaming away in terror as the tower was slowly falling.

"I hate you Roland Emmerich." Maverick deadpanned. as he held his ring hand up and yelled. "IRIS! DISPLAY NEW HEARTBINDER SELECTIONS!"

'You have a new one from Marvel World!' IRIS quickly displayed his newest heartbinder. It had an emblem that Maverick knew.

"ACTIVATE IT NOW!" Maverick shouted.

---

Meanwhile down bellow...

Blaze flew down to the main court and brought the Sultan down safely. "There you go."

"Thank you." Sultan smiled gratefully at Blaze.

Then the Sultan was alarmed to see falling debris coming from the main tower of the palace, as Jasmine ran out with Donald, Baby Groot and Goofy towards the Sultan. The biggest tower above was falling.

"Father!" Jasmine ran up and hugged the Sultan who hugged back.

"I'm alright my dear." The Sultan hugged her back.

"TORI! THE TOWER IS FALLING!" Goofy shouted fearfully.

"WHAT DO WE DO?!" Donald panicked.

Before Blaze could Answer. Maverick landed in front of them with a missing right arm. Princess Jasmine gasped in horror seeing his missing limb.

"AIDEN! OH MY GOSH YOUR ARM!" Jasmine screamed, temporarily forgetting about the falling tower above.

"It's fine!" Maverick held his one hand up to her.

"We gotta stop the tower! I'll go!" Blaze was about to fly up. But Maverick stopped her.

"No need! I brought help." Maverick smiled up at a Mysterious figure.

Landing in front of the group in a flowing magical red Cloak of Levitation. was the Sorcerer Supreme himself. Here because of Maverick's newest heartbinder. And landing in front of the group.

Doctor Strange.

"Need a hand?" Doctor Strange smiled.

"Tower." Maverick deadpanned pointed up at the collapsing tower.

"Right of course." Doctor Strange deadpanned as he held up his hands. Using hsi necklace the Eye Of Agamotto which lit up green.

Then the power of Doctor Strange's necklace began to flow around the falling stones and the tower itself. The tower stopped falling and halted on its side as Doctor Strange was waving his hands. As time was reversing. Every fallen stone was lifted back up in the air and the damage they left behind was repaired. As every stone connected back in place and back onto the tower. Then the tower was slowly restored back to where it was no sign of the damage that caused the people inside the palace to panic.

"Woooow." Donald and Goofy were amazed.

the tower was restored.

All of the people around the palace cheered for them. Both guards, servants and locals as the palace and the Sultan were saved by these mysterious heroes. And their surprise hero.

"Nice to see you again Mav." Doctor Strange shook Maverick's hand.

"Thanks for fixing up my mess again." Maverick remarked shaking his hand back.

The magic doctor snickered and said. "You know where to find me if you make another one." Strange winked before he faded and disappeared back to his world.

"Gawrsh those heartbinders sure are stronger than the summon stones we used to use." Goofy said in amazement.

"Yeah." Donald smiled in agreement.

Then Maverick's right arm instantly grew back thanks to his healing factor and he turned to look at the Sultan and Jasmine.

"You two okay?" Maverick asked.

"Uh... Yeah. We're fine. " Jasmine said numbly looking at where Maverick's arm grew back.

"Ooh that was simply marvelous! " the Sultan said, running up to the Maverick and grabbing his regrown arm and shaking it. "That was a tremendous sight I have just witnessed! Thank you for saving me and my daughter. And my palace."

"No problem. It's what we do." Maverick shook back.

"You sound just like Sora." Jasmine remarked.

"Speaking of which." Maverick looked over to see Sora and Kairi returning along with Aladdin and his monkey Abu.

"Aladdin!" Jasmine gasped and ran up to him.

Aladdin flinched as he expected a slap in the face for running off like he did, but it never came because Jasmine hugged him instead out of relief that he was alright. Aladdin froze and hugged her back. And he gave his heartfelt apologies to his wife.

"Jasmine. I am so, so sorry. I should've never left you alone. I was just-". Aladdin was stopped short by Jasmine passionately kissing him on the lips which he closed his eyes and returned the kiss.

Jasmine pulled away and smiled warmly up at her husband.

"It's okay. I'm safe. And you're here. That's all that matters." Jasmine said softly to him while touching his face. Aladdin smiled back at her.

"Awe..." Donald cooed.

"That is so sweet." Kairi beamed quietly while Goofy chuckled at the romantic couple.

While Maverick and Blaze went over to the crater that Stormur fell in. They saw the first Rubalkhali Stone lying there. But Stormur was already gone. He slipped away while they weren't looking. Obviously to go and recover for the next round.

"He got away, again." Blaze sighed frustrated at this recurring trend.

"It doesn't matter. He'll be back. Game on Copyright." Maverick muttered while picking up the stone. "Game on."

---

Later on at the throne room...

The Sultan of Agrabah sat at his throne room listening to the Guardians of the Multiverse as they explained who they are and what they're doing there.

Jasmine informed Sora that her father knew of what he did for her and that the Sultan kept his secret and world order safe from the public. Out of respect for the order. Which relieved Sora as he didn't have to dance around any important facts or lie to the Sultan in order to cover everything up. So he stated the facts about everything that went on.

"And that's our story so far." Sora finished.

"Ah, what an incredible story. It seems we know so little about life beyond our world. Truly fascinating. But I am also most curious about that Stormur fellow." The sultan said as he leaned forward in his chair. "Would you care to elaborate on the subject of this rufian?"

"He's a total d- Sorry. He's my Nobody. A weapon design by the Organization to take down all threats. They gathered information using their magic and devices to make that happen and as a result. They made Stormur. A dark, violent and total grey version of me. And he'll stop at nothing until I'm dead and the Organization's plan is in action. Whatever that is." Aiden stated to the Sultan.

He was careful not to use bad language in front of any royal. He was taught not to diligently by his mom the Queen of Arendelle.

"Interesting…. So this organization created a being that could be just as powerful, if not more, than the Maverick." the Sultan said aloud while deep in thought.

"Unfortunately he's not going to be your problem when we're done here. We need this stone. The one who kept on your throne. It's a piece of Rubalkali Stone." Victoria stated holding up the stone and showing it to the Sultan.

"Do you know how it got on your throne?" Kairi asked the Sultan.

"Well you see." the Sultan starts looking up in thought."It was centuries ago when Solomon the King of Jerusalem. He came into possession of the stone fragments after the war with Ubar. He indeed had his servants hide the shards, but it was only two shards that were hidden by the servants. The third one, he kept in his possession, until he found someone trustworthy enough to safeguard the shard in his stead."

'Be glad none of Solomon's 700 wives ever used that thing as a mandrake.' Aiden thought humorously.

The Sulan took a guzzle from a chalice he had next to him on his throne before continuing.

"Then one day, Solomon received a vision from God which led him to travel to Agrabah, where he bestowed the stone fragment on to the current Sultan of that time, in exchange for swearing to never again invade Jerusalem and to be at peace with their people." The Sultan gazed upon the guardians before concluding his story. "And it has been the sacred and unspoken duty of every Sultan to ensure this gem never falls into the wrong hands."

"Father. Carrying such a responsibility must've been hard on you. Why haven't you ever told me about this?" Jasmine asked her father, holding his hand out of concern.

"Jasmine. This was never supposed to be your burden. Not until it was time for you and Aladdin take the throne after me." Sultan said honestly looking up at her daughter. "I am sorry I never told you."

"It's okay Father." Jasmine smiled at him warmly.

"You're a good leader in keeping this thing safe. But I'm afraid this responsibility is now becoming more complicated." Victoria said to the Sultan.

"What do you mean?" The Sultan asked curiously.

"Maleficent. The witch that kidnapped your daughter last year. She's back. And she has one of the stone fragments." Sora told the Sultan.

Aladdin's balled his fist hearing that

The Sultan paled and collapsed on his throne while muttering. "No. Not that witch again."

The Sultan had to endure the fear of her daughter's life in Jasmine's absence. When she was taken along with the other Princesses of Heart.

"But wait. There's more." Aiden said, putting the ice cage down.

It was currently covered in a veil to surprise the Sultan with a means to explain it to him slowly. Then Aiden unveiled the ice cage, showing Iago who was asleep inside. He must've been waiting for too long.

"Iago?!" Aladdin gasped which echoed the throne room.

"Wat?!" Abul chipped looking shocked as well.

"Huh?" Iago woke up from the loud echo. "Who's calling for me at this hour?" He says rubbing his eyes with his wings.

"WHAT?! This little retched buzzard who helped Jafar in taking over my kingdom?!" The Sultan's angry roar echoed.

"Whaaa!" Iago jumped in fright. as his teeth chattered and he crossed his heart.

"Believe me I would love to see how you execute prisoners in curry sauce. But we've already explained to your daughter that he's under house arrest." Aiden explained.

"More like cage arrest." Iago grumbled sadly.

"So why should we let him off the hook?" Aladdin snorted.

"Believe me I don't trust him as hard as we can throw him. But if it weren't for him. We wouldn't have known about the Rubalkhali stones or about Maleficent. Aiden's magic detected no lies when he said he wants to make it up to us." Jasmine said to Aladdin and the Sultan. "I'm not sure what to do with him. Iago has done more than enough damage in the past."

Aladdin sighed with his arms crossed as he pondered what to do next. "Except he was mostly an assistant. Jafar was the one who did most of the damage." He pointed out.

"Now that I think about it. Iago was never mentioned in the reports or the story. It stated it was all Jafar." Victoria pointed out.

"That's a good point." Donald stated.

"What do you think Your Highness?" Goofy asked the Sultan.

"It's your call. We'll agree with whatever you decide for Iago." Aiden stated and the team nodded in agreement.

"Hmmm…. Well. I am still not too thrilled with Iago assisting Jafar in his coup." The Sultan stated in deep thought, before he came to a decision. "But I cannot refute that his warning of our enemies have prevented this recent attack on the palace from being worse."

"So what's your verdict, Your Excellency?" Aiden asked, already having a feeling what he was going to say.

The Sultan looked down at Iago would a chattering his teeth and sweating in fear. He was not sure what he's going to decide.

"Iago. I am willing to pardon your past transgressions. " the Sultan said to Iago holding up his finger "On the condition that you assist us, in anything and everything we say, in stopping Maleficent and the Organization from having their way with this world. And in the event that you betray us, you will be hunted down and sentenced to death. Do we have a deal?"

"Oh yes! Definitely! I won't break this deal that will break me if I break it." Iago agreed sincerely.

"Redundancy much redundant?" Victoria retorted on how redundant that sounded.

"Swell! The Guardians has its own convicted secretary from PetsMart." Aiden clasped his hands together humorously before looking at Aladdin. "Now as for the other stone. What do you know about the Cave of Wonders Aladdin? Mind if i call you Al? Because your full name takes too long to say."

"And the map you found." Victoria stated holding onto the map that Abu stole from the art merchant.

"Oh that place." Aladdin began to describe his experience in the cave of wonders. "On the outside, the entrance to the cave is a giant sentient Tiger head, and the only ones who are allowed in are those with a kind heart. But on the inside, it's a place of wonder, where endless riches reside, enough to make anyone more wealthy than even the Sultan, eh no offense Your Highness."

"None taken my boy." The Sultan smiled.

Abu confirmed this with a nod and his tongue hanging out in greed at the thought of all of that gold piled up.

"Anything else you can tell us about Alibaba's basement?" Aiden asked with his usual quips.

"When you are in there, you are only allowed to touch the one thing you seek. If anything else is touched, the treasures will slowly turn to lava. And the cave will close, potentially sealing you inside forever." He stated becoming serious with his descriptions.

"Yeah I think it's safe to say that it might be safer to not bring curious George with us." Aiden says pointing at Abu who looked outraged at that suggestion. Jumping and screeching with his arms.

"Wait if all of this happened last time. How did the Rubalkhali Stone not melt with everything else.

" Because the Cave of Wonders changes its location every year with everything inside it. Even if all the treasure melts it's never permanently destroyed. The cave is magical and the only way for anything to be gone for good is to destroy it outside the cave." Aladdin explained.

"So nothing burns in there except for people. And it's more like a temporary lock down on someone's debit card." Aiden muttered while thinking. "This is why I never owned a card from Wells Fargo."

"What did you end up bringing back from the Cave when you went there the first time?" Kairi asked in curiosity.

Aladdin smiled remembering two great friends he met that day. "I met and befriended a magic carpet that can fly, and a magic lamp with one of the greatest friends I ever made inside."

"Do I...Hear my blue ears burning?!" A loud and enthusiastic voice of a legendary comedy relief's voice echoed loud and clear. And out of nowhere.

"The frick?" Aiden muttered looking around as the other guardians wondered.

Then Sora realized. "Oh wait!"

"Genie!" Both Sora and Aladdin said at the same time with a smile as big as everyone else's.

Victoria, Aiden and Baby Groot were the only ones that were confused.

Then a stage appeared in the throne along with spot lights shining over a red curtain.

Then a voice of an announcer spoke up with intro jazz music played in the background.

"Ladies and Gentleman. Making his big comeback return! It's The ever impressive! The long contained! Often imitated but never duplicated! The Genie Oooooooof the ex-lamp!"

Then the curtains opened as a limbo drove up and a blue security guard opened it up revealing Genie stepping out looking humorously pompous with an expensive white fur coat on. As he walked on top of blue servants as a rug. Up to Aladdin and the others.

"How do you do?" Genie said in a airy British accent. Then he smiled and pulled the coat off revealing himself as the Genie opening his arms to Aladdin. "Come here old bud!"

"Is there a gas leak in here?" Aiden stood in confusion of how humorous and insane the Genie seems.

"GENIE!" Aladdin and Jasmine shout happily running to their friend and hugging their crazy blue friend.

"It's so good to see you again!" Jasmine says while in the group hug.

"Yeah you have no idea how much we missed having you around." Aladdin added in.

"Oh I can't imagine! Actually I can. I know the rate of waiting tolerance in every and all mental capacity." Genie said looking like Professor X then shifted back. "But I digress! I'm back and not as a cash grab remake! Or a cheap but talented channel 7 voice star!"

"I take it back. This dude is like the Nirvana of comedic nut jobs." Aiden said while standing next to his team. Staring in awe of the Genie and his wit.

Genie turned and looked at the Guardians and gasped in shock. Then he took a sip of tropical drink in a glass. Then gasped louder.

"Can it be?" Genie breathed like a Scottish captain.

"Hey Genie! We missed you!" Sora greeted with a wave along with Donald and Goofy.

"Oh yeah hi! It's been a while my old battle mates!" Genie greeted them back by swooping in and giving the three a big hug which made Kairi giggle at the sight which made Genie smile and mutter quietly. "And I see you met someone out of your Mom's basement.

"Burn…." Aiden snickered.

"But... not to hurt anyone's feelings. How can I? You're all troopers, never change, I mean that. But... I was talking about HIM!" Genie pointed at Aiden with a big smile.

Aiden looked behind for a quick second wondering if he's pointing at someone else. Until he realized.

"Me?" Aiden inquired.

"YES!" Genie exclaimed before he appeared up at Aiden looking like a blue SpongeBob. "You're... A-a-a-a-a-a... Mav... A-a-a-a-a... Mav..." Genie was inhaling and exhaling with stutters of shock and excitement.

Aiden raised his eyebrow at him.

"A-a-a-a-a... Mav!... A-a-a-a-a-a-a Mave!...Rick..." Genie SpongeBob fainted at the last note and fell on his back unconscious.

"Uh... Hello? Blue Man Group? Are you okay?" Aiden inquired looking down.

"A-a-a-a-a-a-a... Mav." Genie SpongeBob felt his mouth get covered by Aiden.

"Please, don't." Aiden deadpanned looking amused.

"OH AS I LIVE AND BREATHE IN MY INFINITELY LIFE LONG YEARS! I'm finally meeting! A living. Breathing. And not to be underestimated... MAAAAAVVVVEEEEERRRRIIIIICCCCKKKKK!" Genie echoed that shook the globe.

"Uh..." Aladdin stood still looking confused. "Whoa?!"

Genie swooped down and held Aladdin by the face and stared deep in his eyes with a wide smile.

"Know this Al! Dreams! Do! Come! Honest to Godfrey true! You hear me?! You hear me?! You hear me?! You hear me?!" Genie crazed before there was a long pause. Then he screamed again. "You hear me?!"

"Okay Genie calm down!" Aladdin chuckled a bit, while backing up a bit trying to ease his old friend and asked. "What's the big deal?"

Genie's eyes broke like glass plates as he was deadly shocked to hear Aladdin ask that.

"What's the big..." He gasped and shifted into Caiaphas and pointed at Aladdin. "Blasphemy!"

"How does he know all these obscure references?" Aiden inquired quietly.

"Do you have any idea where I got my passion to be free and make my own rules outside the lamp Al?! It all came from his kind!" Genie squealed like a little girl and gestured over at Aiden."I can't believe it's the Maverick!"

"Retro Cucamonga..." Victoria muttered to Kairi who covered her mouth and giggled.

Genie turned into a little freckled girl with braces, giggling and holding up a note and pencil to Aiden. "Can I have your autograph sir?" He asked.

Aiden obliged and did so singing his M emblem on the note.

"So from what I can understand from those stereotypical references and pop cultural impersonations done right in legendary fashion. Is that you're my biggest fan?" Aiden asked while mildly hiding the joy he was feeling.

"Great." Victoria whispered to herself. "As if Aid didn't have a big enough ego already."

"Yeah yeah yeah! I'm your biggest fan!" Genie said as a trusty dog panting happily.

"I think I just met my long lost son... I think I'm gonna cry." Aiden faked a tear. Then he said. "Atten... tion!"

Genie stood at attention like a discipline troop in a soldier's uniform. In fact he multiplied himself to look like multiple troops.

Then Aiden shifted in his Maverick form as he marched up to him like a drill Sergeant. He even formed a drill sergeant's hat made of neon.

"Listen up Blue leader and….his... others? Whatever. What we've got going on in this current moment in an old fashioned treasure hunt! And hopefully note the lame kind that said friendship is the true reward. Cause how can you buy a game station with friendship?! Huh?! Tell me that!". Maverick spoke like an actual western drill sergeant.

One of the Genie soldiers labeled as 'number one' tried to answer like an idiot. "Well if your friends have the money then-"

*Bang!*

And that one troop ended up getting shot in the head by Maverick's neon handgun. Just to show how insane Maverick really is. That and it's the Genie after all, it's not like he killed him or a real person. He's just having too much fun in this act.

"That was a rhetorical question Number One! You only speak when your spoken to Maggots! Now lay there and let the maggots' feast you, Maggot! Number Two, you've been promoted in Number One's place! RIP ex-Number One!" Maverick stated to a Genie Troop named Number Two.

"Huzzah!" Number Two Genie Troop cheered in a high pitched voice.

"This is so, bizarre." Victoria muttered looking at the two of them act out their insane fantasy.

"Shhh! I think this is the best part." The Sultan whispered like an audience member watching a stage comedy act. While Aladdin and Jasmine stood by looking amused as did the rest of the team.

Though Donald and Iago were the only ones that weren't sure where Maverick was going with this.

"As for the rest of you! Which in this case is only one of you! Do you have wit?!" Maverick drilled.

" SIR YES SIR!" All the Genie troops answered.

"Do you have skill?! " Maverick drilled

"SIR YES SIR!" The Genie troops answered.

"Are you creative?!" Maverick drilled.

"SIR YES SIR!" The Genie troops answered.

"Are you crazy?!" Maverick drilled.

"SIR YES SIR!" The Genie troops answered.

"Are you violent but respectfully moralistic?!" Aiden drilled.

"A SIR YES SIR!" The Genie troops answered.

"Do you want to kick some ass and take a piss at Guy Ritchie's doorstep for no good reason?!" Maverick drilled.

"A SIR YES SIR!" The Genie troops answered.

"There's two of them now?" Iago muttered as Maverick and Genie kept going.

"This is exasperating." Donald shook his head and face-palm himself.

"And more importantly... DO YOU WANT TO BE A GUARDIAN UNTIL DEATH OR EPIPHANY?!" Maverick exclaimed

"SIR YES SIR!" the Genie Troops answered.

"Then let's go to the Cave of Wonders troops!" Maverick encouraged. "And then-"

"Say what?" The Genie troops froze as they all looked taken back by what he just said. As they all poof away and it's just Genie who swoops up to Aiden appearing like a light blue dog with no courage.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Courage the cowardly Genie screamed in this form before hiding under the large rug on the floor "NOOOOOOOO!" he squealed out from his spot.

"hey come on now, we were just on a roll back there. What's eating you?" Maverick inquired. "The cave is where the action is going to be."

Genie sticks his head out from under the carpet still in the shape of Courage.

"I have spent the last ten thousand years locked in that nightmare without any chance of parole and not even a phone to at least call for pizza. There is no way I'm going back there. No way!" Genie said before hiding under the carpet again.

"Gee. It sounds like he's afraid of that place." Goofy says scratching his head.

"What was your first clue?" Donald grumbled back at Goofy.

"Oh don't worry Genie. Will be in there just long enough to get our hands on the next Rubalkhali stone. Then we're leaving." Kairi assured the Genie sweetly.

"You lost me at 'long'." Genie choked like Renée Zellweger under the rug.

"There's going to be thousands of Heartless to fight." Sora mused.

"Really?" Genie peeked his head out of the rug.

"Oh hell yeah. Big ones. Ugly ones. One un***kable ones. and best of all. After we're done. We'll blow that place up harder than a Michael Bay kink star!" Maverick beamed. "So what do you say Blue Breeze?"

"You can pass up a deal like that, can you Genie?" Aladdin mused at his old friend.

Genie's face slowly warped into a big Grinch like smile. Hardcore fighting and blowing up his old prison. Aladdin is right. How could he pass that up?

---

Down at a local restaurant...

In Agrabah. There was a vancy shop selling Shawarma. And the vendors were busy keeping the place spotless.

Suddenly their doors were kicked open by Genie with a 5 o'clock shadow facial hair and tank top as he looked crazed and excited. Which caused everyone inside to jump with fright.

"GIVE ME SEVEN HUNDRED CHICKEN SHAWARMAS!" Genie bellowed in joy and meekly asked. "To go please."

---

That's all for now folks!

Talk about an amazing comeback from the Genie (Robin Williams). May he keep making my Grandmother laugh. She was a fan of Mork and Mindy.

Can figure out every reference I've made in this chapter from SpongeBob to Simpsons?

"If not. Get a Disney Plus and Amazon Prime account." Maverick said while changing the channel on his TV.

Anywa aas you can tell. Genie is Maverick's biggest fan due to there being a Maverick since the dawn of time after the Keyblade War. And his passion for being free came from hearing the legends about a Maverick. Genie is overjoyed because he is finally meeting one.

Also Iago has a depressing back story for the reason why he was Jafar's animal sidekick. Aiden won't admit it but he can relate to that.

"No I don't." Maverick deadpanned.

Keep telling yourself that.

Anyway As you can tell. Out of all of the Biblical stories growing up. Two of them I admired the most was Moses and King Solomon. Which is why I stayed accurate with his description as possible while writing this fictional story of Ubar. Whatever it was I based it loosely after the video game I hinted earlier.

Can you guess which Playstation game that was?

Also Razoul was that guard who was voiced acted by Jim Cummings in the original Aladdin film. And he really doesn't like Aiden for that hilarious trick he played on the guard earlier. But he did help Jafar in trying to kill Aladdin (Prince Ali) in the last film. So he deserved it.

"First Norrington and now this bozo?" Maverick inquired.

Yeah he's an Infidel.

But what will Aladdin and the Guardians face once they make it to the Cave Of Wonders? why did that merchant Abu stole from had a map? Will they find thr next Rubalkhali stone in time?

Find out in the next chapter! Don't foeto leave comments to let me know your thoughts!

And I always Disney/Square Enix fans!

FISTBUMP!
