Hey, everyone. Happy 2020! I hope you guys are enjoying this new year so far. And I have the first chapter of 2020 for you guys. Before we get into this, I have something I wanna address and it's an obnoxious guest reviewer, who won't seem to get the message. So, I need to get this off my chest first.

Guest: You've clearly are not aware of the fact I HATE update requests! You've been telling to do chapters left and right and you have the nerve to tell me, "Well, you can make a chapter right now". Let me tell you something, you have no right telling me to update chapters. I'll update and make chapters WHEN I want. You are not my boss or king or whatever, stop telling me to make chapters, when I'll do that when I want to. I will not say this again, so please back off and leave me alone. Thank you!

For the rest of you, you are fine, and I thank you for your patience. I just need to set my foot down to make this person stop being obnoxious. Anyway, here's the next chapter for you and I hope you enjoy. Reminder, I don't own Kingdom Hearts or the characters or other stuff in the story. I just own my OCs and that's that. One with the show.


Chapter 19: Grunty's Return

In Divine Kingdom in the castle throne room Ina and Nuji are talking to Aptus.

"I see, you want to pay the tower a visit?" Aptus asked.

"Yes! If there IS a way to bring Xyk back, then we have try SOMETHING!" Ina said.

"We figured, that maybe a Replica could be a perfect body for Xyk." Nuji said.

"Yes, to place his heart in." Aptus said.

"Faust worked on the Replicas at the tower and we were 'working' with him one time. We just need to find anything to create a Replica." Ina said.

"If that doesn't work, we'll have to visit Radiant Garden and talk to Zexion about it." Nuji said.

"Very well. Follow me." Aptus said leading them downstairs through the hole taking them through the metallic hallway and then arrive at the laboratory area.

"So, this is the place?" Ina asked.

"Yes, this is where Fortitudo began experiments to help bring world peace. Granted, I used this to lead Virtus and his friends to the Black Xetis' world, but there is another portal capable of taking you to the tower, since you are no longer able to use dark corridors." Aptus said showing a portal.

"I hope you're right about this." Nuji said as they go through the portal.

Ina and Nuji arrive at the gated area and they see Tower of Remembrance.

"It's been a while since we've came here." Ina said.

"Faust's research facility should still be here. Let's go see if it's still operational." Nuji said and Ina nods and they go into the tower.

Ina and Nuji enter the tower and they later find a metallic room with a computer.

"Here it is." Ina said as she goes for the computer.

"Let's see..." Nuji said using the computer and starts typing but then something strikes at the computer destroying it.

"What the hell?" Ina asked and they turn to see a dark corridor appearing revealing to be Xemnas.

(Theme: The Deep End)

"Trying to use Faust's facility to bring back someone or rather a being, who should never have existed. How pathetic." Xemnas said.

"Shut the hell up!" Ina yelled taking out her hookswords while Nuji takes out his rapier.

"We're finding a way to bring back Xyk and you WON'T stop us!" Nuji yelled.

"Of all the members of the Organization, the special ranks minus Xusmal and Rixla were the most pitiful ones. You two, Xyk, and that useless puppet Xaria." Xemnas said.

"I said SHUT UP!" Ina shouted attacking with her hookswords but Xemnas grabs them and uses black and white thorns to destroy them and then delivers a big kick at Ina knocking her back.

"Sis!" Nuji yelled as he charges at Xemnas who vanishes and then reappears behind Nuji and pins him to the ground.

"I trusted you two to spy on Faust's intentions against us, but just like Axel, it was your actions that were treasonous. Any last words you have for your superior?" Xemnas asked.

"OUR superior?! Get over yourself! I hated every moment taking orders from you!" Ina said.

"At first, what I learned from Xusmal is that our 'goal' was what mattered, but after meeting Xyk, I learned something very more important, loyalty for each than loyalty for a madman!" Nuji yelled delivering a strike with his rapier but Xemnas disappears again and then reappears and grabs Nuji by his throat.

"Your actions will be your undoing, wretched worm." Xemnas said.

"Nuji!" Ina cried running to help but then many Dusk Nobodies appear and surround her.

"Don't, Sis! Just go...!" Nuji said.

"But..." Ina stops talking as Xemnas unleashes an ethereal blade.

"GO!" Nuji shouted and Ina starts to run.

"How pitiful, a shame the flower can't stand against nothing, but the crystal can shatter by darkness!" Xemnas said as he impales his ethereal blade into Nuji.

Ina keeps running but she hears a scream and stops while looking back horrified.

"Nuji..." Ina said but the Dusks go after her and she keeps running and later she leaves the tower and looks back at it one more time. "I'm sorry, Nuji... I guess I'm a bad sister..." Ina said as she goes back for the portal.

In the facility room Xemnas drops Nuji's dead body on the ground and just then a dark portal appears revealing Hilda.

"I knew those two troublemakers would try and find something to bring back that filth." Hilda said.

"The Prince of Light still seeks to find a way to bring him back." Xemnas said.

"That doesn't matter. Let him continue that vain journey. Either way, what he's trying to find is worthless." Hilda said.


Meanwhile in the space area Noel's Gummiphone goes off.

"We're probably getting another mission update." Noel said answering the Gummiphone revealing to be Noah.

"Hi, Miss Noel." Noah said.

"Oh, Noah. You called for a new mission?" Noel asked.

"That's right. And it's a world you've been to already and it's where your old friends live in." Noah said and Noel realizes.

"Oh, that's great! Is it in trouble?" Noel asked.

"Yeah, someone's doing something bad and you and your friends gotta do something." Noah said.

"Okay. Thank you." Noel said hanging up.

"So, which world do you think it is?" Ky asked.

"I think I should know." Noel said.

"Remember, 'May your heart be your guiding key'." Elena said and Noel nods and makes Millia fly off while Fulgur follows after.

"Hey, they're off in a hurry." Sora said.

"Let's go after 'em!" Donald said and they nod and the Gummi ship follows after.

Fulgur, Millia, and the Gummi ship begin flying through the space area for the next world and later they find the next world that has the spiral mountain, a village, a mountain, pine grove, wasteland, quagmire, and a fortress and they decide to go to that world.

In Spiral Mountain it's raining and dark someone is trying to move a rock from the ground and it's Klungo who keeps trying to move the rock but fails.

"No good, Missstresss. Sssstill can't ssshift rock..." Klungo said still trying to move the rock but fails again. "All becaussse of that ssstupid bear!" Klungo said.

Meanwhile in Banjo's house Banjo, Kazooie, Bottles, and Mumbo are playing cards.

"Mumbo play well. Has much of bear's cash." Mumbo said.

"He's right, Kazooie. There's goes your birdseed money" Banjo said.

"Don't be so sure, Banjo! Hey, everyone! Look outside! Grunty's back and she's got many Black Xetis and Heartless with her!" Kazooie said making Bottles and Mumbo look out the window while Kazooie moves some coins to them.

"Where, Kazooie? I can't see anything." Bottles said.

"Oh, false alarm. Probably shadows. Let's go, bone-face. I'm feeling lucky." Kazooie said.

Back outside a dark corridor appears revealing to be a hooded Brotherhood member.

"So, it IS true, that wretched bear's and bird's world is restored, thanks to that filth Noel. No matter. I think revenge is called for, since those two are just responsible for my defeat." The Brotherhood member said and just then she turns to see a drill digging through a rocky wall revealing to be a drill tank.

In the house a quake occurs.

"H-Hey...! S-Stop shaking the table. You're m-making me sick..." Bottles said.

"Mumbo not rock the table. Whole house shakes lots!" Mumbo said.

"It's probably the Black Xetis and the Heartless doing this. One of us should check outside." Banjo said.

Back outside the drill tank arrives at Spiral Mountain.

"Interesting. So, we have something to help." The Brotherhood member said and the drill tank opens revealing two figures.

The first coming out is a skinny witch wearing a black sleeveless dress, black hat, has pink hair, and holding a book.

"Hurry up, Blobbeld! Our sister is waiting for us." The skinny witch said.

Coming out is another witch who is more heavy, wearing a bigger sleeveless black dress, orange hair, and carrying a black cat and she lands on the skinny witch.

"Hurry, we must go or angry Grunty will get, Mingella." Blobbeld said.

"Then, get off me, you must! Move, I cannot!" Mingella said.

"Hmph. This'll take forever. I'll do this myself." The Brotherhood member said going for the rock.

Back at Banjo's house the shaking stops.

"It's stopped now. I wonder what happened?" Bottles asked.

"Sure was noisy. Let's look outside." Banjo said.

"But it's dark and scary...I'll be scared..." Kazooie said.

"Mumbo not afraid. Me go look outside. Back in minute." Mumbo said leaving the house.

"What a sucker!" Kazooie said.

"Kazooie!" Banjo berated.

Mumbo is outside and sees the Brotherhood member and finds Klungo and the rock.

"Move aside, reptile freak. I'LL move the rock myself." The Brotherhood member said.

"Sssorry, Missstresss. I have failed you." Klungo said.

"Free our sister Grunty, you will?" Mingella asked.

"Hmph, watch and learn, hags!" The Brotherhood member said as she uses telekinetic powers to lift the rock from the ground and then unleashes darkness and destroys it shattering it into pieces.

"Wow, gone rock has!" Blobbeld said.

"You can come out now, hag." The Brotherhood member said and just then skeletal hand rises and coming out is Grunty who is now a skeleton.

"No, no, no, this cannot be! What's happened to little ol' me?" Grunty asked.

"Nice Grunty looks, lost weight you have." Mingella said.

"I hate bones. I body I need. Can you help with this little deed." Grunty said as her eye falls off.

"Yes, plan to help we have. Back to our castle, we must go." Blobbeld said.

"Help us with our plan, will you?" Mingella asked the Brotherhood member asked.

"Freed me you have and grateful I am! We could use someone like you to give that bear a slam!" Grunty said.

"As much as I would LOVE to see that bear and his annoying bird die, I have something to attend to, but I will stick around and make sure to help with your issue." The Brotherhood member said.

"This not good... Me go tell Banjo." Mumbo said running off.

"No, seen us bony man has, him we must whack!" Mingella said.

"Leave this one to me. He's no hassle, I'll destroy him and it's back to the castle!" Grunty said as she casts spells at Mumbo who keeps running.

Back at the house.

"Guess I'll be having that birdseed after all." Kazooie said.

"But you cheated, Kazooie. That's not..." Bottles stops talking as Mumbo bursts in.

"Everyone... Must run... Grunty coming!" Mumbo said.

Grunty arrives at Banjo's house.

"Revenge is mine, I cannot miss! Let's see if this furry fool dodges this!" Grunty said casting a spell at the house.

"Yeah, yeah, Skull boy. I bet she's a Heartless too!" Kazooie said.

"No joke! Spell coming!" Mumbo said.

Banjo looks outside to see a spell coming at the house.

"He's right! Everyone, out!" Banjo said as they leave.

"I'm not falling for that trick again. I'm staying here." Bottles said but the spell attacks the house.

The Brotherhood member watches the house being destroyed.

"Hmph, the house is gone, but that damn bear and bird are still alive. Whatever. Noel and her annoying friends will be coming soon, so I'll kill more than two birds with one stone." The Brotherhood member said disappearing through a dark corridor.

Mingella and Blobbled return for the drill tank.

"Hurry, you must! Ready to leave, we are!" Mingella said.

"Hold on, Sis! I'm nearly there! I've just been to blast that bear!" Grunty said going for the drill tank and then it starts to move.

"Wait! Ssstop for me, Missstresss!" Klungo said running for the tank.

"No, Klungo. You stay here. I'll be back, have no fear!" Grunty said.

It's now daytime and the house is destroyed.

"Ow... Mumbo's head hurt..." Mumbo said.

"Our house!" Kazooie said.

"Well, at least we all got out safely." Banjo said.

"Wait, where's Goggle boy?" Kazooie asked and coming out the house is Bottles who is fried and covered in soot and weakly walks out of the house.

"Mole looks much unwell." Mumbo said and Bottles' soul leaves his body.

"It's worse! Grunty's killed poor Bottles!" Banjo said.

"He wasn't very likable anyway." Kazooie said.

"Kazooie!" Banjo berated.

"Sorry..." Kazooie said.

"Grunty wreck house and kill Bottles. She must pay. Bear and Bird must go after witch. Mumbo have things to do." Mumbo said leaving.

"Great, I get to peck more witch butt. Let's go, Banjo." Kazooie said.

"I've a feeling it's not going be easy this time..." Banjo said as they start to leave.

Later the light portal appears and Ky, Noel, Elena, Ken, Max, Tails, Blaze, Shadow, Storm, Grace, Kiyo and Zatch, Lucky, T.J., Sly, Bentley, Murray, and Lucas fly out of the light portal before it disappears while Sora, Donald, and Goofy arrive.

"We're back at Spiral Mountain." Noel said.

"But...something's not right..." Lucas said looking around and they see the whole mountain full of ruins with holes, rocks around, and destroyed grass.

"It's gone to hell." Ken said.

"I wonder how Banjo and Kazooie are doing..." Noel said.

"I'm sure they're okay." Ky said.

"Yeah, let's go their house." Sora said.

(Field Theme: Ruined Spiral Mountain)

(Spiral Mountain-Ruined Mountains)

The group make their way through the ruined mountains and the later arrive at the ruined house.

"What happened HERE?" Donald asked.

"Did a storm happen or something?" Tails asked.

"Where are Banjo and Kazooie?" Max asked.

"They're gone." A voice said.

"Uh, who said that?" T.J. asked.

"Behind you." The voice said and the group see Bottles' brunt and dead body.

"Bottles...?!" Noel asked horrified.

"What happened to him?" Sora asked.

"This isn't good, he's dead..." Blaze said.

"It's really nice to see you guys again." The voice said and they look up to see Bottles' soul.

"Bottles...?" Murray asked.

"What happened around here?" Noel asked.

"Grunty's back and she used a spell to destroy the house. I thought it was another cruel joke, but she did return and she killed me too. Now, Banjo and Kazooie are going on another adventure to stop Grunty again." Bottles' soul said.

"Grunty's back?!" Sora asked shocked.

"I don't believe it... How'd she get out?" Sly asked.

"Someone's freed her from the underground and now she wants revenge on them and you too." Bottles' soul said.

"Well, if that bitch is back, then she's in for another ass kickin'. Where'd Banjo and Birdbrain went off to?" Ken asked.

"They went off to a cave at the rock wall. Good luck, guys!" Bottles' soul said.

"Don't worry, Bottles, we'll stop Grunty again." Noel said as they start moving.

(Information: Find Banjo and Kazooie!)

The group move through the ruined Spiral Mountain and they find a hole on the rocky wall and decide to go in it taking them somewhere else.

(Spiral Mountain-Cave)

The group are now in a cave and continue to search for Banjo and Kazooie and they find an opening hole and decide to go through it to take them to a different area which is what looks like a village.

"Are we...in Spiral Mountain?" Zatch asked.

"This place looks very different." Tails said.

(World of Isle O' Hags)

"Banjo and Kazooie are probably somewhere around here. I hope they're safe." Noel said.

"Don't worry, Noel. Banjo and Kazooie are strong by themselves and they traveled with you before, so they should be okay." Ky said.

"We'll find 'em before ya know it." Goofy said.

"I hope so." Noel said.

"Let's look around and ask anyone around here." Lucas said and they nod.

(Jingo Village-Main Village)

(Field Theme: Isle O' Hags)

The group look around the village to find it empty with no one around and they and they later find what looks like a giant gold palace.

"That place looks cool." Sora said.

"We're not here to sightsee!" Donald yelled.

"Still, we should at least investigate and ask what's up." Ky said.

"As usual, Ky has a point." Elena said.

"Whatever..." Donald said crossing his arms annoyed.

The group go inside the palace.

(Jinjo Village-Jinjo Palace: Throne Room)

The group arrive at the palace throne room and they find three people which are Banjo, Kazooie, and a yellow Jinjo wearing a crown and royal cape.

"Banjo! Kazooie!" Noel cheered.

"Huh?" Banjo asked and turns to see the group.

"Noel! Ken! Grace!" Banjo cheered.

"What, they're here?" Kazooie asked and sees the group. "Noel, Grace! It's great to see you two again." Kazooie said.

"Hey, what about me, Birdbrain?" Ken asked.

"I don't care about you, Music boy." Kazooie said.

"Screw you, bird bitch!" Ken yelled.

"Yep, still vulgur." Kazooie said.

"Eevee." Grace said chuckling.

"Shut the hell up, mutt!" Ken yelled.

"When'd you guys get here?" Banjo asked.

"Not long ago, but your home's kinda messy." Goofy said.

"Yeah, we got that witch Grunty to thank for." Kazooie said.

"She's really back, huh?" Lucas asked.

"Yep, and she's killed Bottles and ruined our house." Banjo said.

"We know..." Noel said.

"Hey, since we're here, we can help you take care of her again." Ky said.

"That's great! Thanks, guys." Banjo said.

"Ahem, excuse me." The Jinjo king said.

"Uh, who're you?" Sora asked but Donald yanks his ear. "Ow...!" Sora said.

"He has a crown, Sora! Show some respect!" Donald yelled.

"Sorry for barging in like that, Your Majesty." Ky said.

"Oh, that's fine. It's nice to meet new friends. Yo, wassup! I'm King Jingaling, King of the Jinjos." King Jingaling introduced.

"Nice to meet you, Your Majesty." Noel said.

"Your village is rather empty." Bentley said.

"Yes, my people were scared away by those witches and those weird creatures. I usually like it quiet, but I need to get them all back for the kickball tournament next week." King Jingaling said.

"That doesn't sound important." Kazooie said.

"It is! We have a big rivalry between Jinjos and moles, which means there could be trouble if we don't turn up!" King Jingaling said.

"I guess that is a big deal..." Sly said.

"Exactly! Anyway, you'd better hurry and put a stop to what's going on before things get worse." King Jingaling said.

"We will, thank you." Noel said as they leaving the throne room.

"Banjo, we gotta work together again, if we wanna stop Grunty for good." Ky said.

"I agree. It's great to team up with you guys again." Banjo said.

"Just stay out of my way, Music boy and Duck boy." Kazooie said.

"Same to you, bitch!" Ken yelled.

"Yeah!" Donald yelled.

Meanwhile at what looks like a giant tower fortress Grunty, Mingella, and Blobbeld are working on what looks like a giant machine.

"C'mon, sisters! Time I lack, what's the plan to get my body back?" Grunty asked.

"Annoying your rhyming is, so stop or we won't tell." Mingella said.

"Oh, if I must..." Grunty said.

"B.O.B. this is. Big-O-Blaster, by Mingy and me. Life force from ground, plants, and creatures it can suck." Blobbeld said.

"Stored in big tank life force is. Shower Grunty will take when tank full. Then, new body you will have." Mingella said.

"An evil and heartless plan, I love it! How long will it take to suck up enough life force?" Grunty asked.

"Not slim you are, so plenty will be needed." Mingella said.

"So, start blasting!" Grunty yelled.

"Patient you must be. Target you must pick first." Blobbeld said.

"Hmm, well, that cursed Jingaling has just helped that annoying bear. I reckon we blast the Jinjo King!' Grunty said.

"Auto-targeting B.O.B. has button you only have to press." Mingella said and Grunty presses the 'Suck' button making B.O.B. unleash a beam of energy at the Jinjo palace.

As the group start moving they see something.

"What's that?" T.J. asked and they see the beam of energy hit the Jinjo palace.

"What...?" Noel asked.

"What's going on?" Shadow asked and the palace start's turning stone grey.

"This is not good..." Ky said.

Back at the castle tower the life force tank has hit close to 'Grunty's Life Force'.

"Successful B.O.B. was, Jingaling's life force we have." Mingella said.

"Right then, girls, let's blast the whole island!" Grunty said.

"This, we can do, but big charge-up B.O.B. will need." Blobbeld said.

"Hours it will take and revenge bear will seek." Mingella said.

"Aw, don't worry about him. Banjo's got no one to help him now that the mole and Jingaling are out of the way. He'll never get to us in time." Grunty said as the sister laugh evilly.

"So, what happened?" Sora asked.

"Something bad, but I don't think we should check..." Tails said.

Storm goes into the palace but then runs back out.

"PIKACHU!' Storm said scared.

"What's wrong?" Ky asked.

"Pika! Pika!" Storm said.

"What? King Jingaling's a zombie now?" Ky asked.

"Pika, Pika!" Storm said.

"That's awful..." Noel said.

"This must be Grunty's doing." Banjo said.

"We have to stop her and FAST!" Elena said and they nod.

The group start moving and later and go underground and find a house and decide to go in taking them to the next area.

(Bottles' House-Living Room)

The group arrive at the house and they find a female mole.

"Hello, Banjo. Hello Kazooie." The female mole said.

"Hi, Mrs. Bottles. How're you?" Banjo asked.

"Fine, fine." Mrs. Bottles said.

"Wait, she's Bottles' wife?" Blaze asked.

"Yep, should we tell her about ghostly boy?" Kazooie asked.

"Be quiet!" Donald yelled.

"What's wrong? Is Bottles okay? He should be back for his dinner. He never misses it." Mrs. Bottles said.

"Oh, I'm sure he'll be back soon." Banjo said.

"Let's go. This place is depressing." Ken said but Elena whacks his head.

The group continue through the house and they later find a hole and use it take them somewhere else.

(Main Island-Wooded Hollow)

The group arrive at the wood hollow area and begin making their way through but then they find what looks like a hut and they see Werewolf Black Xetis and Soldier Heartless surrounding it.

"Black Xetis and Heartless!" Sora said.

"Not them again..." Kazooie said.

"Why're they attacking that hut?" Kiyo asked.

"Who cares, we need to defend it." Max said.

"Right!" Banjo said as they go and confront the Black Xetis and Heartless.

"Gotcha, freaks!" Kazooie said.

"Time to kick ass!" Ken said.

(Battle Theme: Dance of the Evil Witch)

(Information: Defeat the Black Xetis and Heartless!)

The Werewolf Black Xetis attack the group with their claws and then bite with their fangs while the Soldier Heartless deliver spin kicks but Ky casts Telekinesis to lift them and then slams them while Noel horizontal slashes with with Magic Wish followed by casting Magnet and attracts the enemies together allowing Sora to aerial slash with Favorite Deputy and then enters Hyper Hammer and delivers many bashes and swings with the hammer followed by a heavy swing and a powerful slam and then enters Drill Punch and delivers a drilling strike and then goes underground and delivers a drill uppercut but the Soldier Heartless leap attack at the group while the Werewolf Black Xetis unleash howling attacks but Banjo has Kazooie shoot eggs and then they deliver a charging attack but the Werewolf Black Xetis pounce to strike but Grace uses Bite while Sly uses Cane Spin while Blaze shoots fireballs but the Soldier Heartless deliver spinning kicks but Goofy uses Goofy Turbo while T.J. somersault slashes with his knife while Lucas uses PK Freeze but the Soldier Heartless deliver leaping attacks while the Werewolf Black Xetis slash with their claws but Storm uses Iron Tail while Max uses Cyclone while Ken unleashes magic music waves while Kiyo has Zatch use Zakeruga but the Werewolf Black Xetis unleash howls while the Soldier Heartless jump and then deliver somersault kicks but Murray uses Uppercut while Shadow shoots Chaos Arrows while Donald casts Earth followed by casting Gravity but the Soldier Heartless attack with their claws while the Werewolf Black Xetis enter their frenzy mode and deliver rapid attacks with their claws but Elena casts Magma followed by casting Triple Blizzard while Lucky uses Ground Pound while Tails throws ring bombs while Bentley uses Afterburner and they defeat all of the Black Xetis and Heartless.

After the fight the group examine the hut.

"I wonder who lives here." Ky said.

"Maybe Mumbo's in there." Banjo said.

"Let's go take a look." Bentley said as they go inside.

(Wumba's Hut)

The group arrive inside the hut and they find a woman wearing Native clothing.

"Oh, hello. Welcome to Wumba's hut?" The woman named Wumba said.

"Uh, hi." Sora said.

"So, what do you do here?" Noel asked.

"Wumba can use magic to help heroes." Wumba said.

"Really? Because Mumbo can do magic too." Elena said.

"Mumbo amateur. Wumba real magic master." Wumba said.

"Really, care to show what you can do?" Donald asked.

"First, give Wumba Globo." Wumba said.

"Glow...bow...?" Sora asked.

"Globo help Wumba's magic." Wumba said.

"Um, okay." Banjo said as they leave the hut.

The group go back outside and while looking for a Globo they find a rock blocking the way.

"That rock's in the way." Max said.

"Let's move it." Kazooie said.

"That won't happen, punks!" A voice said and they see a metallic silo opening revealing a mole wearing a Sargent outfit.

"Who the hell are you?" Ken asked.

"Watch your mouth, punk! I am Sargent Jamjars! Bottles' brother." Jamjars said.

"What did you mean by we can't move it?" Noel asked.

"It's simple. Those witches used magic to block off the stone and there is no access." Jamjars said.

"So, we need to get rid of the magic. How?" Banjo asked.

"First, find the Globo for Wumba and she'll handle the rest. So long!" Jamjars said as he dives for the silo which closes making him hit his head but crawls back in.

"Ha, what an asshole." Ken said.

"Do you ever shut up?" T.J. asked.

"C'mon, let's go find that Globo like what we're doin'." Goofy said.

The group search the wooded hollow and they later find a small pink creature.

"Is that a Globo?" Ky asked.

"Maybe." Lucas said.

"Let's take it and find out." Banjo said taking the creature.

The group later return to the hut and talk to Wumba.

"Hey, we have this thing." Sora said.

"That Globo. Place it into pot." Wumba said and Banjo throws the Globo in. "Excellent, now I can remove the magic of rock." Wumba said using her magic to dispel the magic off the rock. "Magic removed. You can use you power to get rid of rock." Wumba said.

"Thanks, Wumba." Noel said.

The group return outside and Ky, Noel, Sora, Elena, and Donald use their magic to get rid of the rock destroying revealing a hole.

"Looks like our next ticket in." Ken said.

"Very observant of you, Music boy." Kazooie said.

"SHUDDUP!" Ken yelled.

"BOTH of you shuddup!" Ky snapped.

"See, now you made Ky mad." Kazooie said.

"Piss off!" Ken yelled.

"SHUT UP!" Ky shouted making the two stop.

"Let's just get moving." Zatch said as they go through the hole taking them to the next area.

(Main Island-Mountain Top)

The group arrive at the mountain top of the island and they find what looks like a skull looking hut.

"That looks like Mumbo's hut." Banjo said.

"Let's go pay him a visit." Noel said as they go into the skull hut.

(Mumbo's Hut)

The group arrive in the hut and they find Mumbo sleeping.

"Wake up, Bone boy." Kazooie said making Mumbo wake up.

"Oh, bear and bird are here and new friends from before have returned." Mumbo said.

"Hey, Mumbo." Lucas said.

"We're going to try and stop Grunty again. Wanna help?" Sora asked.

"Mumbo want to help, but first, Mumbo's magic stick missing. Evil creatures came and stole it from Mumbo. Find magic stick and return it to Mumbo." Mumbo said.

"Where are they?" Kiyo asked.

"They escaped into the mines down the mountain. Find mines, find evil creatures." Mumbo said.

"Okay, Mumbo, we'll be right back." Noel said as they leave.

The group return outside and make their way through the mountain top and they later find what looks like an entrance hole.

"This could be the mine entrance." Max said.

"Well, one way to find out." Tails said as they go into the hole.

(Glitter Gulch Mine-Entrance)

The group arrive at the mines and they're full of gems and jewels of different colors.

"This is such a big place." Murray said.

"Big as the Cooper vault." Sly said.

"Or the Cave of Wonders." Donald said.

"Where are we gonna find Mumbo's staff in a place like this?" Zatch asked.

"Tails, Bentley?" Ky asked and the two use their techno maps.

"Okay... We should go that way. Who knows where and when the Black Xetis and Heartless could show up." Tails said.

"Like that never happens." Shadow said.

(Information: Find Mumbo's staff!)

The group begin moving through the mines but unknowing to them a dark corridor appears revealing to be the Brotherhood member who takes off the hood revealing to be Aril.

"So, just as expected, Noel has reunited with the wretched bear and bird. Now, I'll end all of them at once." Aril said and she also sees four figures searching the mines and they are Porky, Zazz, Zeena, and Zomnom. "How interesting, they're trying to find that box in vain. They're nothing, so they can do what they want." Aril said as disappears in darkness.

The group search the mines for Mumbo's staff while fighting off Black Xetis and Heartless in their way and continue through the piles of gems and jewels and they follow a sparkly road taking them to the next area.

(Glitter Gulch Mine-Glittering Path)

The group arrive at a glittering path of the mines and they see floating red gems floating.

"Those floating gems, maybe we can use those to get across." Bentley said as they use the floating gems to get across to the next area.

While the group continue to move through the mines they find a crystal pillar and go for it but then many Vampirebat Black Xetis and Werewolf Black Xetis appear.

"Oh, joy, now we gotta deal with them." Kazooie said.

"You've clearly forgot how to fight, Feather head." Ken said.

"At least I'm not an idiot." Kazooie said.

"Will you two shut up and fight?!" Elena asked.

(Information: Defeat the Black Xetis!)

The Vampirebat Black Xetis unleash sonic waves to attack while the Werewolf Black Xetis pounce around and attack with their claws but Sora uses his Drill Punch to grab a Black Xeti and then slams the Black Xeti on the ground while slamming other Black Xetis over and over and then delivers the final slam while Ky triple slashes with Spring Beauty followed by casting Mega Flare while Noel vertical slashes with Radiant Salvation followed by Lethal Frame and freezes enemies and then delivers many slashes before returning time back to normal dealing great damage to the Black Xetis but the Werewolf Black Xetis delivers big bites with their fangs but Max blocks the fangs with his shield and then uses Shield Missile while Sly uses Cane Upper while Shadow slashes with Chaos Daggers but the Vampirebat Black Xetis fly around and deliver aerial strikes but Donald casts Gravity to bring down the Black Xetis allowing T.J. to multi slash with his knife while Banjo and Kazooie roll to attack but the Werewolf Black Xetis unleash howls while the Vamirebat Black Xetis attack with their wings but Grace uses Growl while Kiyo has Zatch fire small lightning bolts while Lucas uses PK Thunder but the Vampirebat Black Xetis aerial kick but Lucky delivers a multi aerial kick while Goofy uses Goofy Rocket while Ken throws magic music bombs but the Werewolf Black Xetis enter their frenzy mode and deliver multiple attacks with their claws but Bentley shoots sleep darts to make them sleep allowing Tails to summon Magic Hand and it delivers a powerful punch but the Vampirebat Black Xetis unleash sonic waves but Blaze uses Fire Tornado while Murray uses Uppercut but the Werewolf Black Xetis attack with their claws while the Vampirebat Black Xetis aerial kick but Storm calls down lightning to strike while Elena casts Aero followed by using Barrier Surge and they defeat all of the Black Xetis.

The group examine the crystal pillar.

"Hmm, maybe we can use that crystal to help us." Ky said.

"Good idea, Ky. Try it out." Banjo said.

Ky, Noel, and Sora use Flowmotion of the crystal and spin along it making more gems float allowing the group to use the gems to get across and they later arrive at the next part of the mines.

(Glitter Gulch Mine-Dark Mines)

The group arrive at a very dark area of the mines and so Ky and Noel cast Fire magic on their Keyblades to create light allowing them to see but as they keep moving something rises from the ground and they're red crystals.

"Wak, rising crystals!" Donald said.

"We better be careful." Sly said.

As the group keep going Porky, Zazz, Zomnom, and Zeena see the group and Porky smiles an evil smile.

"It's the losers!" Porky said.

"Let's waste 'em!" Zazz said.

"Really? I just did my hair and nails. Besides, we were told not to deal with them." Zeena said.

"Aw, have a sense of humor, Zeena. We'll just crush them without 'em knowing." Porky said and he sees dynamite and smirks more evilly. "Hope you losers are ready for a BLAST!" Porky said.

As the group continue to move through the dark area Grace looks up at something and it's dynamite.

"Eevee!" Grace said.

"What's wrong, Grace?" Noel asked.

"Uh-oh! Look out!" Banjo said seeing dynamite coming at them but they move.

"Dammit! It's dark, crystals are risin', and now dynamite are headin' for us?! This mine hates us." Ken said.

"Move!" Sora said.

The group rush their way through the dark area while dodging rising crystals and throwing dynamite and more Black Xetis appear and attack but they defeat the Black Xetis and keep moving but more dynamite flies at them while more crystals rise but the group keep dodging while using Flowmotion to reach crystals to get across and they come across a rocky bridge but more dynamite flies at them and so they cross it but dynamite breaks parts of the bridge and they find the end and try to reach it but then dynamite breaks the bridge making the group fall and they scream.

"Hahahaha! Goodbye, losers!" Porky said.

"Well, that was fun. Now, can we get back to our box hunt?" Zeena asked.

"Yeah, yeah." Porky said.

"And maybe somethin' to eat on the way?" Zomnom said.

"Ugh, fine." Porky said.

(Glitter Gulch Mine-Underground)

After the fall the group recover and look around to find themselves in an underground area of the mines.

"Just what happened? Where'd the dynamites come from?" Sora asked.

"Ya got me. They just showed up outta nowhere." Banjo said.

"We need to hurry and find Mumbo's staff." Noel said.

"Oh, you shouldn't rush yourself, dear sister." A voice said and they see a dark corridor appearing revealing Aril. "It's never a good thing." Aril said.

"A-Aril..." Noel said.

"You!" Sora yelled.

"Rixla?!" Banjo asked shocked.

"Hey, how're you back? We beat you!" Kazooie said.

"Oh, that's right, we never met again have we? My REAL name is Aril. I'd say it's nice to see you two idiots again, but that'd be a lie." Aril said.

"Why are YOU here?! I guess you're here to torment Noel?" Ky asked putting Noel behind him.

"You may have been back to bein' human again after your Nobody kicked the bucket, but we kicked your ass before and we'll do it again!" Ken yelled taking out his guitar and charges at Aril who sends Ken back with telekinetic force.

"Trust me, I would LOVE nothing more than to kill all of you, especially Noel, but I think making you suffer first would be more fun." Aril said.

"Just tell us your mumbo-jumbo crap and get outta here!" Elena yelled.

"Hmph, very impatient. Fine. I'll humor you. Let me start off with you're wasting your time trying to stop Grunty, as she's seeking to regain her body once more by stealing the life force of the idiots on this island." Aril said.

"Wait, are YOU responsible for bringing Grunty back?" Banjo asked.

"Guilty as charged." Aril said.

"You responsible for getting Bottles killed." Kazooie said.

"Not really. Grunty did it by herself. I only freed her because she's nothing but a pawn in the game. Her hatred for you gives rise to the darkness in her heart and that could be the thing the Brotherhood needs in order to strengthen Malus." Aril said.

"Yeah, well, news flash; WE'RE stopping Grunty before she can cause any more damage." Ky said.

"Good luck stopping us." Lucas said.

"Fine, see if you can defend this pitiful world from the darkness. It's going to be brought to chaos anyway." Aril said.

"Oh, no! You're NOT gonna ruin this world. Not again." Banjo said.

"You wanna stop me? Go ahead." Aril said taking out a staff and throws it.

"That's..." Banjo stops talking.

"I had the Black Xetis steal that bonehead's staff so I could slow you down. Don't expect anything easy because I will still make your lives a living hell." Aril said disappearing in her dark corridor.

"Bitch." Ken said.

"What's her deal? She's still upset because we defeated her?" Kazooie asked.

"Of many people she wants gone, she wants me dead the most." Noel said.

"She might've hurt you back at the dream worlds, but we're here and we'll protect you." Sora said.

"Trust me, Noel, Aril's gonna get what's comin' to her if she messes with us." Ky said.

"And I haven't forgotten what she did to you back at Bygone Fortress." Banjo said.

"I just hope I get to peck that witch again." Kazooie said.

"Thank you, all of you." Noel said.

"Now, let's get outta here." Elena said.

The group make their way to escape from the mines and they come across mine tracks and find what looks like a minecart and so they get on the minecart and use it to get through the mine tracks to get by the underground area but then they see Black Xetis and Heartless using minecarts to attack but Ky, Noel, and Sora fire their light shots to defeat the Black Xetis and Heartless while Banjo has Kazooie shoot eggs and they still use the minecart to get through and later the minecart takes them to upper tracks and takes them back to the entrance area of the mines.

"We're back." Kiyo said.

"Let's give this back to Mumbo." Tails said and they leave the mines.

The group return outside and return back to Mumbo's hut and find Mumbo.

"Welcome back, friends. You have Mumbo's magic stick?" Mumbo asked.

"We do." Noel said giving Mumbo his staff.

"Thank you, friends. Now, I join you." Mumbo said.

"Thank you, Mumbo." Banjo said.

"Now, let's get going before Grunty hurts anyone else." Lucas said as they leave the hut.
