Chapter 53

"Where to next, Sora?" asked Trunks.

The group was sitting near a large tower. A huge amount of troops came buy, drinking smoothies and talking about how their missions have been. Sora sat there attentively while Goofy, Cloud, and Axel were eating ramen. Blue was also there with Donald, looking angry.

"Why do you eat like that?!" she asked. "You guys keep eating like pigs or something!"

"Hey now, gwarsh, that's racist!" remarked Goofy.

"Anyways," said Sora, "we don't know yet. I was thinking of a world nearby that has been attacked by the neithermen-"

"We just found a world like that." Trunks was grim. "Agrabah was just hit with a massive wave of nobodies."

"What?!"

"Yep. Several hundred heartless have just invaded the place as well. We have a transporter nearby for you guys to go on."

"Then let's go!" Sora, Donald, and Blue dragged the others away from the table. Trunks led them to the transporter, which was located near the battle arenas.

"I'm going with you guys," said Trunks. "You will need my help on this."

"Gwarsh, that is awfully nice of you," said Goofy.

"So where will we be transported to?" said Sora.

"We will be going to the main city. We should be there in a couple of minutes, so let's just go and I will give you the full rundown on the situation."

They went into the transporter. "PREPARING TO MOVE TO AGRABAH. STANDING BY."

The teleportation began, and they began to move towards Agrabah. "So what is happening here?" asked Sora.

"Apparently, something major has happened. A artifact is getting all of those beings near the city."

"What type of artifact?" asked Blue.

"Why are you here?" asked Cloud. "Last I heard, you should have stayed at your place."

"Well, I am allowed to do whatever I want," said Blue. "Besides, Yen Sid contacted us and said that I can come along."

A gadget on Blue's shoulder activated, and a mini-hologram of Kairi appeared. "Hey Blue!"

"Hey Kairi!"

"What the..." asked Axel.

"I attached the projector to her," explained Trunks. "I figured that she can be trusted with it."

"Fair enough," muttered Cloud.

"So is Cloud being mean to you?" said Kairi.

"Hey Kairi!" said Sora.

"Oh, hey Sora! Donald! Goofy! Axel!"

"Well, no 'hi' Cloud," said Cloud.

"Anyways, Yen Sid said that you all have to be careful in the next worlds or so. Just stay on guard, okay?" The hologram disappeared.

"Well, she didn't say hi to me either," said Trunks. "But we will be fine..."

"Does she know you though?" asked Sora.

"No..."

Suddenly, they landed on a street. Sora recognized the markets around him as part of a bazaar.

"This is Agrabah alright," said Sora. "So then, we should head out to Jasmine's place and see what's up."

"Well, whatever..." Trunks shrugged and the group proceeded to the center of Agrabah.

"No! HELP ME!"

A peddler ran by the group, crying in fear. Several heartless and nobodies were chasing him. Cloud sliced half of them to bits, but more heartless materialized. A big, orange heartless appeared, shaking the road with every step.

"Split up!" Sora, Donald, and Goofy took on a bunch of heartless, while the rest took on nobodies. Blue slashed through her enemies, while Trunks and Axel vaporized the nobodies with energy blasts. Sora and his companions used a Trinity attack to get rid of the heartless.

"Man, it is dangerous here," said Donald.

"Oh thank you, my friends," said the peddler. "I am very grateful for this!"

"No problem," said Blue. "We can dish these fools out."

"I will be on my way now. If you want to visit my place, go to the shop near the Sultan's castle, alright?"

"We got it," said Cloud. They saw the peddler go away towards the castle.

"Well, the heartless problem is getting worse," said Axel. "We need to figure out what is going on and fast!"

The group headed to Jasmine's place. Over there, they saw a bird and a woman talking.

"Isn't this exciting?" said the bird. "You two will be married and it will be happy ever after!"

"If only that was the case," said the woman. "Iago, we need to stop those monsters from attacking Agrabah."

"Jasmine, you are worrying over nothing!" said Iago. "I'm sure that..." Iago spotted the group and let out a laugh. "And what did I tell you?"

Jasmine looked over and saw the group. "Sora!" said Jasmine. "It's so good to see you again!"

"How are you doing?" asked Sora.

"They're getting MARRIED!" said Iago.

"Congrats!" said Trunks.

"Why thank you stranger!" said Jasmine.

"Oh, right!" exclaimed Sora. "This is Trunks, the guy with the red hair is Axel, that is Cloud, and that is Blue!"

"Why, it is nice meeting you all!"

"So who's the groom?" asked Blue.

"Aladdin is!" said Iago. "Actually, he's right here!"

A man with a red hat, purple shirt, and white pants came out of the palace. "Sora! It is so good to see you again!"

"DID SOMEONE SAY SORA?!"

From nowhere, a huge voice echoed. A blue man appeared out of nowhere, laughing his way into the conversation. "Well Sora, old buddy, we need to catch up! Heard that you went through some adventures!"

"We can do so later, Genie. So, when's the wedding day?"

"Today!" The Genie spread his arms out, and in the next second, a wedding ceremony was commencing. Sora and his friends received lavish clothing and were sitting in front of Jasmine and Aladdin. The Sultan of Agrabah was there with Apu and Iago, with the Genie acting as the best man.

"Apu, you shall be the ring bearer!" The monkey was suddenly there, holding a ruby ring.

"So, Prince Aladdin, do you accept Princess Jasmine as your one and only?" said the Genie.

"Yes I do!" said Aladdin.

"How come the Genie is like that?" asked an shocked Blue.

"He is like that," said Axel. "Always cheerful and fast moving."

However, just before the marriage could conclude, the sound of breaking glass was heard. A figure jumped down and took a scepter that was lying around.

"Hey! Stop, you thief!" said the Sultan. Aladdin and Jasmine blocked the exit of the stranger.

"Okay thief, what are you doing here?" said Aladdin.

Sora and Trunks rushed from behind, but encountered nobodies. The figure shuttered and then sighed.

"Well then Aladdin, you seem to have grown..."

Both Aladdin and Jasmine were shocked. "What?!" Aladdin asked. "Who are you?"

"Well, if you must insist..." A bright light flashed, stunning the groom and the bride. The man vanished to a place outside of the wedding ceremony. Axel caught sight of the man.

"We'll go after him," said Axel. "Donald, Cloud, stay here and fight off those nobodies!"

Axel, Goofy, and Blue ran toward the man, while the Genie helped Sora finish off the enemies.

"So Aladdin, do you know the guy?" asked Sora.

"I don't know...I have a feeling that I should, but..." Aladdin was still shocked. Jasmine and the Sultan calmed him down, while the others began to run after the man.

"Why now?" asked Trunks.

"We should get our answers soon. Let's go!"

The group headed towards the bazaar.
