Second Chance Universe(Series): Behind the Scenes.
Author's Note: I originally intended on updating this on Wednesday, but life caught up and so I postponed until today.
Please remember that none of these will be in order.
I don't own anything here.
Back-Scene 2-Camping Trip Gone Wrong: This takes place after Mickey became Yen Sid's Apprentice. Let's just say the world has become colourful. As mentioned in Chapter 20: Journey to the Center of Atlantis in "Kingdom Hearts III: Second War"...
"You know a lot about camping, don't you, Mickey?" Skuld questioned with a fond smile.
"Well, sure." Mickey replied with a smile. "Donald, Goofy and I used to go camping together every third weekend. I remember one time Goofy showed me the perfect cast."
"The Perfect what?" Sora asked, having overheard.
"The perfect cast." Goofy answered this time as he also heard this, explaining, "Muh dad taught it to me. Said it's been handed down for about twelve or thirteen Goof generations."
"Twelve or thirteen Goof generations?" Roxas asked, curiously.
Before Goofy can continued, Donald quickly waved his hand and said, "Why don't you ask him to show you later when we're at a beach or something!"
"Aw, you're still not mad at him about that, are ya' Donald?" Mickey asked, even though he knew that time as well.
"About what?" Riku asked.
"It's a long story." Mickey shrugged, "Well, huh...Goofy showed us the Perfect Cast and uh...accidently reeled in Big-Foot. That was about eighteen years ago when this happened.
It was such a nice early evening. A perfect day to go Camping, and the forest was beautiful too. Even more so now that the world no longer had it's black and white sketchy look. The sky and water were blue, the grass and leaves were green, the sun was golden and yellow and as evening drew, the sky would turn orange to pink and purple and finally navy blue with the stars shining.
It's been at least a year since Mickey Mouse became the Apprentice of the old but very wise and powerful human Sorcerer Yen Sid. In that time not only Mickey had learned the arts of magic, but also learned, to his shock at the time, that he was one of the few but many chosen wielders of the Keyblade.
Upon returning to his home world, Mickey thought of changing it to show off the wonders of true colour. He practiced hard until he got the hang of it, and boy did it make such a wonderful difference. Even the citizens of his home changed; they looked, as he would put it, much more modern now.
Mickey himself had changed appearance when he first arrived at Yen Sid's Tower a year ago; no longer was Mickey Mouse black and white with black pupil eyes. Now his eyes were white with black pupils, his face was a peachy colour, his original white shorts were now red with white sew buttons, and his shoes were yellow.
His friends, Donald and Goofy had a change of appearances too, as did everyone else. Donald was still white in feathers, but his bill and legs were orangey yellow, his eyes were blue with black pupils, and he changed shape in a way of his bill and legs too. His sailors hat was blue, and his shirt was also blue with a red bow-tie, and white lines. Goofy's legs and arms and face changed almost dramatically but he was still himself. He now wore an orange jumper with a yellow vest, his silly hat was green, he wore blue baggy pants and brown shoes.
The instant the colour and body shape transformations hit, everyone loved this new display instantly, because despite things changing for the better on the outside, everyone was the same in the inside...well, Mickey noticed a few changes in him. He learned to be more responsible and came to love his friends and family even more. But all in the all, he was still the same Mickey Mouse.
"Wow, fellas. This is our first camping trip where everything's in colour." Mickey remarked with a smile, wearing a boat vest which was orange, and a fishing hat. He, Donald and Goofy were holding fishing poles to catch and fry up some fish for dinner.
"Yeah, you said it. I could just watch the sunset everyday." Donald agreed, his eyes never leaving the now forever colourful rays of the sun setting.
"Hey, I got an idea." Goofy perked up. "Why don't we celebrate with me showin' ya's the Perfect Cast?"
"The perfect what?" Mickey blinked, confused.
"The Perfect Cast! My dad taught it to me when I was a l'il kid. Said it's been handed down for about twelve or thirteen Goof generations." His friend replied.
Mickey thought about it, and while half of him was screaming that this was a bad idea, he was curious about the Perfect Cast that Goofy knew about. Donald on the other hand looked annoyed and uninterested.
In the end, Mickey shrugged and said with a smile, "Sure! I'd love to see that, Goofy."
"Oh hum." Donald muttered, faking a yawn.
The trio went up to the edge of the beautiful lake that glittered in the sunlight, which was far more beautiful than all of the previous years they went fishing. Goofy was holding his fishing pole.
"Okay, here goes." Goofy began, as he relaxed his shoulders and made sure his feet were apart, continuing, "You gotta be loose. Relax. With your feet apart, and..."
He then did very odd standing positions as he swung the pole around, which had Mickey look at him dumbfounded, and Donald rolled his eyes in exasperation and boredom. "Ten o'clock. Two o'clock. Quarter to three, Tour Jete, Twist, over, Pas de deux, I'm a little teapot, and the windup..."
Goofy leaned back as far as he could as the fishing line and hook went flying backwards, and while Mickey and Donald were certain that their clumsy friend would fall over, all three of them were unaware that the hook went so far back that snatched a cooked piece of steak from a barbecue which Pete was cooking as he decided to go camping as well, away from his three enemies, but unaware that things were about to go wrong.
"And let 'er fly!" Goofy jerked forward a second later, and the string, the hook and the captured steak went flying and vanishing into the distance. Goofy winked at his friends. "The Perfect Cast!"
"Wow! That was amazing, Goofy! I didn't know you could do that." Mickey exclaimed in awe, and even Donald was surprised and admittedly impressed.
"Ay-yhuck! Thanks." Goofy shrugged, before reeling in as he felt that he caught something. He then requested for a video camera which Mickey handed over.
"Garwsh, sure is a big one." Goofy remarked.
"Oh boy! We're gonna have a big feast tonight!" Donald said happily.
Mickey on the other hand, sensing the bad vibes scream inside him, noticed something...furry and scary looking in the water as it was being pulled closer and closer.
"Um, fellas? I don't think it's a fish..." He muttered, worriedly.
"Must be over three pounds! I don't wanna miss this!" Goofy exclaimed, looking into the camera.
But Mickey's fears were confirmed, as out of the water, biting the piece of steak(where that came from, Mickey had no idea), was a huge orange ape-like monster with orange fur. Mickey and Donald both felt their hearts jump right up into their throats as they realized what it was.
"Uh, G-G-G-Goofy? It's BIGFOOT!" Mickey screamed in panic, pointing at the monster. Donald quivered like mad in fear.
Goofy, being, well, goofy, as usual, didn't get the memo at first and instead requested to the monster calmly, "Could you back up a bit Mister Foot? You're out of focus."
Bigfoot, seeing how it was lured by these campers, just roared angrily and loudly. The trio screamed in fright and quickly made a run for it, with Bigfoot giving chase. The steak that was in it's mouth went flying out and flew over Mickey and his friends, and right back to Pete's Campsite where it hit him in the face, knocking him over from his camping chair and making his plate of food fly all over the place.
Goofy turned around and began to run backwards, capturing and recording the events of Bigfoot still chasing them.
"Behold the legendary Bigfoot! Fabled but seldom..." Goofy began, only to trip on a log and accidentally threw his camera into the air where it landed into a tree.
"Quick! In the RV!" Mickey cried out to his friends, and as quickly as possible they repacked their camping equipment, shoving them all into the RV they rented out. Then with Mickey behind the wheel, he turned on the engine and soon they were driving off to safety, even with Bigfoot still chasing them.
"What's the idea of..." Pete grunted angrily, only to cough up dirt and dust as Mickey's RV drove past him in high-speed, at least 30km under the speed limit.
As soon as he stopped, Pete was about to yell at whoever drove by so quickly when he felt a shadow loom over him and the back of his neck prickle, making him realize he wasn't alone anymore.
"I'm gettin' that feeling something behind me is the reason why those guys drove off in such a hurry." Pete muttered worriedly to himself, and a soft growl that came with the shadow just confirmed it.
Slowly turning around, Pete saw that it was none other than Bigfoot who was glaring at him.
"Uh oh..." The bad guy muttered worriedly.
Bigfoot grabbed hold of him and began to whack and hit and smack him and twist and turn him and tying him up into several knots while Pete screamed painfully and in panic, trying to get away before he was tossed into the air and he then crashed right into another tree, his pants getting caught and he ended up hanging from a sharp branch.
Bigfoot in the meantime, noticing Pete's camping equipment and began to investigate, rummaging through it.
"Doooooh! Whoever lured Bigfoot here is gonna pay for this!" Pete yelled angrily, which echoed through out the entire forest.
Meanwhile, Mickey and his friends made it to another clearing in the forest which was not too far from the road back to town and they panted in relief as Mickey pulled the car to a stop. The trio slumped in their seats.
"Whew! That was close." Mickey wiped sweat from his forehead.
"Yeah, but at least we got to see and escape from Bigfoot. Ay-yhuck!" Goofy replied.
"Only because you had to reel it in by showing us that STUPID CAST, you back palooka! It's your fault that we nearly died!" Donald snapped angrily.
Goofy shrugged apologetically, feeling guilty for what happened. "Sorry."
"Oh, forget it! Next time, I'M doing all the fishing! Or at least you go fishing while I'm not around, okay!?" Donald continued to rant.
Mickey felt bad for what happened. "Aw, don't be mad at him, Donald. Goofy didn't know that Bigfoot was in the area. Besides, we all made it in once piece."
"But I ruined our camping trip." Goofy muttered sadly.
"That's okay, pal. Just be careful time, okay?" Mickey ensured him.
Goofy smiled a little. "Thanks, Mickey."
While Mickey was willing to forgive and forget, Donald just pouted and grumbled to himself. This was a grudge and the worst camping trip he will never forget.
Because he certainly didn't want to relive that experience or tell anyone else about this misadventure. Not even if anyone asks for that story.

AND
KINGDOM HEARTS III: SECOND WAR.
A/N: The part with the Bigfoot is based on "A Goofy Movie" except that I changed the ending to ensure that Pete's the one with having Bigfoot at camp. See you in the next Back-Scene!
