Monsters and Magic: Divide and Unite

By: DJ Rodriguez

(Author's Notes: Hi everyone! I want to thank all of you who read and reviewed my story. Especially to Darkness Rissing and NaruHinaProductions, who I am glad like that they are in the story somewhat. I hope that I do their characters well here! Also, thanks to you all who complimented me on making Sven and Kristoff's past a little more clear. I wanted to give the two a little more depth, to give them a bit of history and such.

Also, I want to give a shout to Darkness again, who gave me an idea on how Jet Jaguar and Mama Odie influence the lives of the people of New Orleans! Specifically… towards an ancestor of the Le Bouff family! Thank you for the inspiration and idea, my friend!

I'm still trying to see how to contact both Disney and Toho, since normal mail failed. If any of you have any kind of idea or suggestion, let me know. Also, just to clear things up. The Middle East has done a lot of trading in the past with China and some of the other countries on the Asian continent. However, since King Caesar is Japanese and Aladdin and his family/friends have to keep a ruse that he is from the Chinese empire, expect to see some references and such by Genie. Just so you know, I am not trying to mix Chinese subjects with Japanese ones, even though they are similar in some ways, they are different in other ways. I just want to clear this up.

I do not own Godzilla or any of the monsters from Toho, nor any of the Disney characters. I do own my OC creations, and most of the songs here. Any other song I use that is by another artist, I will give him/her/them their due and credit as is their right. I do own the song here called Oriental Carnival!

Now, on with the sequel!)


Chapter 13

The sun was slowly setting down over the horizon, the sands turning from a golden color to now that of dull earth. The people in Agrabah were finishing up their works and/or trades before finishing up for the day, having only an hour before officially closing for the night. From atop the palace steps, Eden the genie was looking over the city and towards the gates where the guards were doing their duty. She had just put little Robin to bed in her and Genie's chambers, which was the large spire that was on the right side of the palace. Beside her was Razoul, the long-standing Captain of the Royal guards. The old soldier and warrior was past his prime, his long goatee now a dull gray color and also his body a little worn down due to duty and age since he was in his mid-60's. He was set to retire in one year, but he was still doing his duty. Despite his age, he was fit and still strong. When asked by his fellow soldiers and young recruits, he answered that it was all due to physical conditioning… when he chased Aladdin and Abu, back when the lad was a mere street rat. In addition, to trying to keep the group and kingdom out of trouble due to their antics and actions.

Eden looked to the elderly muscled man and asked, "So Razoul… one more year to go until retirement. Think your latest batch of recruits and soldiers can keep Aladdin and the others in check? Hehehe…". She giggled that last part out, since she knew all too well that the Sultan and his family/friends were more then a handful for anyone. Especially her husband, the loveable blue-skinned Genie who always knew what to do to get a laugh out of anyone. In her view, a man that can make her laugh and forget her worries was a keeper.

Razoul answered with a sigh, "Believe me, Mrs. Genie, I know all too well that all of the soldiers and guards in the entire desert couldn't keep up with the royal family and their friends. Your husband included, since he loves to prank on the younger recruits. I actually can't wait to retire, and get some peace and quiet.". It was a little bit of a lie, since he was indeed going to miss being part of the action. He had been a captain and soldier for the royal family for a good majority of his life, and even though he understood that it was time for a younger generation to take over… he was not fully content with spending the rest of his days in quiet peace. His secret wish was to go down protecting the royal family, to go out with a bang rather then slowly wither away.

The green-skinned beauty nodded and replied, "I see. Well, from the message I got from him awhile ago, it seems that we're going to have a little bit of a show today.". The elderly captain gave the magical woman a puzzled look, wondering on what she meant. He got his answer quickly, as the gates to the city just shot open with a bang! The citizens down below stopped what they were doing, and looked towards the gates to see that blue smoke was coming forth and it was too thick to see anything within it. The guards at the entrance/exit didn't know what to do, but held their scimitars at the ready just in case. Razoul gazed at the spectacle, and was about to summon his men when Eden put a gentle hand on him.

She said, "That won't be necessary, Captain. Hehehe… my husband has arrived, and it seems the show is about to begin!". She flew down the steps of the palace, towards the lower gate entrance/exit area, and opened it up all the way with her magic. The wife of Genie smiled, shaking her head at her beloved's antics which just made her all warm and good inside.

The people of Agrabah might have been used to Genie's magical fun and dramatics, but that didn't mean they were no longer surprised by his theatrics. From within the smoke, a gong sounded off that reverberated throughout the entire city. The people had to close their ears for a moment due to the loud noise. Once the noise settled down, they put their hands off and away from their ears, and saw a figure in the smoke. It gradually cleared up until they saw it was Genie! The blue cool dude was dressed in some strange outfits… well, strange to them but not to him. He was wearing a red Chinese kung-fu costume of sort, with the a kanji symbol written in black ink that translated to Funny Master. He had his eyes closed, a serious look on his face, then he put his hands together and bowed to the populace in a traditional Chinese formal greeting. He held that look for a moment… then his eyes opened and his serious look was replaced by a dazzling grin that showed he was back to his wacky self!

He exclaimed, "Ladies and gentlemen of Agrabah, boys and girls of all ages and classes! We have a new gift from our pals over from the Far East! This one is very special, so we're going to send it in right and true… my way! Hahahahaha!". The adults were a bit surprised by the news, but the children and young teens were intrigued and glad to see their blue magical friend presenting something in his own style that made them feel full of fun and fancy free!

Genie did a few martial arts moves, exaggerated flying kicks and punches with loud martial arts sounds that were a tiny bit over the top. He did a final HIYAH! yell that had the smoke behind him vanish, and before him now were Chinese martial arts warriors! They all wore identical kung-fu uniforms, but they were in blue and gold design with the kanji symbol written in gold Magic People! Genie grinned and marched down the streets of Agrabah towards the palace, a veritable Asian carnival right behind him as he snapped his fingers, and some Oriental music played for all the people to hear.


The land of the Orient, so full of mystery and tradition, its exotic all around!

Action and adventure that is so crazy and head-spinning, only there it can be found!

Dragons and other beasts that look to be from a crazy dream!

Land of such beauty and wonder, you have to see to believe!

They have great fighters, many who fight with just their bare feet and hands!

So come on everyone, pay attention to this great Chinese band!

While he was singing and being the leader of the progression, the people of Agrabah were treated to a sight of acrobatic feats and exotic Asian wonders that left them speechless, smiling and also cheering for the walking carnival before them! Genie had been to the Orient many times, and not just in this time period. He had used to his magic to see many lands in different timelines and such, going to the future and the past to learn much about the places he took an interest in. The children and young adults marveled at the sight of martial arts fighters, both men and women, that displayed such finesse, grace and prowess in the art of fighting with no weapons. The men got smacked upside the head by their wives or girlfriends when their eyes lingered on exotic Asian beauties dressed in clothing that drove them a bit nuts.

You'll see fighters that defy physics, like my dear old buddy Jackie Chan!

You'll see hardcore hitters like Bruce Lee, the one and only loud yelling man!

For those who like to see rare beauty, take a look at these exotic girls!

They are so lovely and sweet, they are very much more precious then diamonds or pearls!

Just one thing you need to know, all of them place honor above it all!

Anyone that tries to mess with it, and you'll be taking a hard fall!

During his singing, Genie transformed into a blue-version of Jackie Chan, a fellow he met in the future. He did some crazy stunts and tricks that really did seem to defy the laws of gravity and physics! After doing said stunts, the cool blue dude transformed in a puff of smoke into Bruce Lee! The blue martial artist did some loud HIYAH! and WAYAH! sounds as he showed off his skills with the nunchuks he held. He was doing a good job… until he got whacked in the face by one of them, and he knocked himself out. It lasted only for a few moments, before he got right back up and transformed into a silly version of the Asian ladies that were dressed up in kimonos and hairstyles that looked be complex and very detailed. He had his fun for a bit, then transformed into one of the human acrobats that juggled him in the air! The crowd was loving it, and more so when the human juggler 'accidentally' missed Genie who dropped like a ton of bricks and became flat as a pancake! He pulled his paper-thin self up, and continued on with the little parade.

The gift we got from our buddies in the East, it's incredible to say the least!

They carved into great likeness, a unique guardian beast!

To protect our kingdom from threats near or far…

Give a hand to the statue they say came from the heavens, King Caesar!

Coming in last in the procession was Aladdin with his family, all on a huge blue cart that was carrying quite a unique beast! The crowds gasped upon seeing such a 'statue' that looked so real, that some swore it was flesh and blood. Aladdin, Jasmine, Azad and Malak all waved to the crowd, some nervous smiles on their faces but they hid it well. The little ones pointed to King Caesar, who was standing still and holding a ferocious pose! A small boy and girl pointed to the tail, and the boy exclaimed, "Mama! Papa! Look! The tail is twitching! It's alive!". The parents merely gave their little ones an enduring, patient smile and said that it only LOOKED like it moved. Little did they know that the kids hit the nail on the head, as King Caesar did twitch his tail a little. Even the mighty guardian beast of Japan was wondering on how his bonded talked him into this sort of predicament.

They say that King Caesar here protected his appointed royal family, kicking all evil with martial arts moves!

Nobody could ever defeat him, his power and strength so refined and smooth!

The people of China gave this gift so that he could guard our homes from danger!

So if you don't want to experience his wrath, never be a stranger!

Genie transformed into a mini-version of the divine beast from another universe, getting many 'oohs' and 'ahhs' from the crowd. He then did King Caesar's own growls and roar, making Aladdin and his family smile and shake their heads at the antics of their magical friend. When the blue-double did some kicks and attacks that he saw the original monster delivered on the Claw Crushers earlier. The crowd was very much impressed by this spectacular display of martial arts, for all in their time staying in the city, they have never encountered monsters or any mythical creature that did such fighting moves.

So we're going to put our new gift in the palace, where it shall stay under lock and key!

If any one wishes to see it, you really can with no charge at all! It is absolutely free!

But you have to wait awhile till things settle, to see our new addition!

The Chinese say to wait at least a few days, and that is their tradition!

So with that said, it's time the party ends and we get back to our ways!

So goodnight everybody, take care and be zany for all the rest of your days!


When they reached the steps of the palace entrance, Genie changed back into his regular self and gave his beautiful wife a huge hug and kiss before leading the procession up the stairs and to the palace. The crowd watched on, the royal family waving to them from inside the cart that held their friend from another universe. The cart that held said monster was the last one passing through the gates, and the large wooden doors closed by themselves thanks to Eden's magic. When the doors clanged together shut, the people went back to their daily routines but commented on how good the show was. Some of the little ones and young adults insisted that the statue's tail, and other bit parts of it moved on its own! Of course, the 'wise' adults told them that it was just the trick of the light, or perhaps some of Genie's magic making it look like it moved.

On the other side of the gate, once the doors were closed and locked, the entire Asian parade vanished in a large puff of smoke. However, only the cart remained that carried the monster and for good reason. Coming down the steps was Razoul, the elderly captain wanting to see what this was all about. He had gotten no order shipments from the Orient for the past few days, and any kind of order for the royalty needed to meet with his approval first before it could even be let into the city, let alone the palace. He went to Aladdin and Jasmine, Azad and Malak being helped down by the guards. Carpet was already in the palace, getting the selected place for King Caesar ready. He had done so with no one noticing, which made the magical object a value due to his stealth capabilities.

Razoul went to the Sultan and inquired, "Your… Highness. May I ask what was THAT all about? I did not receive any kind of order from anywhere in China.". It still struck a bit of a chord within the old captain to refer to Aladdin as 'His Highness' or any kind of title befitting royalty. The man was a commoner by birth, and this still found it amazing that a royal lady such as Jasmine would fall in love with such a man. Razoul DID admire and respect Aladdin's bravery when it rose to surface to defend the kingdom and his lady, that much was clear. But… one could not blame him for still thinking a bit sharp with the lad since he did give the captain headaches for years when living on the streets of Agrabah.

Said man smirked, always making his day to see his former nemesis back in the day actually forcing himself to say royal titles to him. Aladdin got that little chuckle out of his system and answered, "It's alright, Razoul. I think we better show you rather then tell you. Jasmine, you can tell our furry friend here it's alright to move.". The Sultana smiled and petted the creature, saying it was okay for him to move. Razoul was all confused by this… until he saw the 'statue' move and come to life! The elderly captain's jaw fell down from his mouth, and he panicked quick before reaching for his sword! However, it was Azad and Malak that stopped the whole scene from degrading into chaos when they actually protected the beast by being a shield for him!

"Stop, Razoul! He's not dangerous! King Caesar is a friend, not an enemy!" Malak exclaimed, her brother making a similar statement as King Caesar was ready to fight to defend himself against the elderly yet burly human who took out his weapon. Said soldier was very much perplexed on why the royal children were putting themselves on the line for a creature as unusual as King Caesar. Even Eden, who was watching the scene before her, was startled to say the least to see the young adults protecting the divine guardian beast.

She turned to her blue husband and asked, "Dear, I know what you wrote to me in that clever little message of yours. But… I still can't believe that this tall beast is really from another universe.". Eden was worried on what would happen if King Caesar saw Robin, and was fighting off the image coming into her head.

Genie smiled at his wife and replied, "Believe it, honey! King Caesar is from another completely different world and I think we need to know a little more about him before introducing him for real to the people of Agrabah. Also, he won't harm us. He's bonded to our good buddies here, and I am more than willing to bet that he and Robin would get along fine!". Eden gave a weak smile, but she was not as confident as Genie was about that little notion. She was more then happy to make sure that Robin and King Caesar would not see one another until she was ABSOLUTLY sure that nothing would go wrong.

Back to the royal family and guard, Razoul slowly let down his sword but not his guard. He looked to Malak and Azad and inquired, "Your Highnesses, are you sure that this is a good idea? To keep this… this… beast here? And then to show it to the people like Genie just said?". He was concerned for the safety of the royal family, and of the people of course.

Azad answered with full confidence like his father back in his youth, "This is a good idea, Razoul! Believe us, we have full faith and trust in our abilities. We'll keep King Caesar somewhere in the palace for a few days, until he is familiar with everything. Once that is done, we'll introduce him to the people.". Malak added that the monster was indeed a good kind, a true guardian beast! He was unsure of all of this, but Jasmine put it to rest when she went to the captain and told him their encounter with the Claw Crushers and their leader Griffin Claw.

"Jasmine, Aladdin… I believe you need to tell me EVERYTHING that happened. Do you think Malak and Azad can take this… King Caesar to a place where he can settle in?" Razoul asked. He had not only read the reports concerning the notorious bandit group, but he had seen what they did to the innocent and was very much stunned to learn that the royal family had encountered the leader and group. Azad was about to say something, when Carpet came swooping in! The energetic living cloth swirled around his friends, and also gave Genie a high-five! Said blue dude asked if he found a place to put King Caesar, and the carpet gave a thumbs up… or tassel-up, however one puts it.

He looked to the royal young adults and said, "Rug-Man here says he found a place where our new monster friend can chill and be hidden for a while. He'll lead you to it! And remember… this mission is NOT impossible.". He said the last part when he transformed and was now donning what looked to be a black suit and tie, and wearing sunglasses. He had just transformed into a C.I.A. agent! Azad and Malak just smiled and shook their heads slightly at their friend's antics. The princess asked King Caesar not to move until it was safe, and the monster reluctantly went back to being a still statue. Carpet led the way while C.I.A. Genie used his magic on the cart to pull the monster and its occupants along. Eden decided to stick with Aladdin and Jasmine, to hear more on what happened in the desert along with Razoul. The adults watched the group leave, then they themselves went to the Throne Room to discuss on what happened.

Little did they know that news and rumors spread like wildfire throughout the city of Agrabah, and those rumors/news would soon head out into China itself… towards a certain someone that was soon going to play a role for all of them in the future…


~Back at Louisiana~

It was a little past 2:00 a.m. in the morning, and there was not much activity going on at the moment. However, an exception to this was at the edge of the woods on the La Bouff plantation. Jet Jaguar was sneaking around the estate, looking at the vast fields of cotton that was spread out before him. The android with a soul was very much impressed by the show of agriculture before him. Back in his own universe, he explored his world and learned much about what humans did to the land. While Jet Jaguar saw much of industrialization, he rarely saw any kind of farm work and was stunned a small bit to see such large aces of cotton. He said to himself, "This sheer size of this crop field… truly amazing! I wonder how they even planted such a large amounts of it?". He was tempted to go out and check out more of the sticky cotton, but something got his attention quickly. He heard noise from the large manor before him, and he went back to the woods just in case it was someone similar to those unsavory humans that he fought earlier the night.

The metal man carefully but quickly went around the manor, soon seeing the front side of it, and saw that a young lad was running away from the home and towards the gate. Jet Jaguar used his night-vision to get a clearer look at the young boy that was vacating the premises. The human child seemed to be around eleven years of age, wore some clothing that showed he belonged to nobility or from a noble family, carried a stick with a large bag tied on its end, had a shocking blonde hair, green eyes, and looked to be around 4'9 or so. He used his x-ray vision function to see that inside the bag were gold coins, some food, and also a change of clothing. The android said, "Hmmm… this looks like something out of one of those children books I read some time ago in America. I believe this little one is running away from his home. But why? I better follow and make sure that he is well.".

Normally, Jet Jaguar would have dismissed the child as a simple runaway and would not have bothered. But… since he gained a soul, he started to think for himself more deeper then he ever had been back home. He was wondering on why a child would run away from a good home with food and shelter. He needed to learn more. So he stuck to the edge of the woods and followed the child.

The one running away from the La Bouff plantation was a young Aubert La Bouff, only son to Enéas and Jacquie La Bouff. He had grown into the exquisite life of the rich for his family were plantation owners who cultivated the land and sold their crops for a good profit. However, it was all made possible due to enslaving black people who toiled at the fields and treated lesser then humans. Even after the Civil War, many plantation owners tried to do what they could to 'employ' black folks and then pay them for much less what other white employees did in the field. The Le Bouff family was no different… except for little Aubert. He was born with a good heart, and was often confused as he grew up when he saw black adults and children treated unfairly and unjustly by his parents and in the town of Louisiana. He had tried to ask his parents about it, but they just simply stated that is how things were. And when he tried to help the black folk with some of their work, he was found out and scolded something fierce.

He had endured it for many years, and now… he just snapped. He had just seen his parents fire a black family, all due to the father and mother being too sick to work, and forced them off of the property. He couldn't take it anymore, and was now running away from his home! Aubert looked behind to see his parents' home and whispered, "Goodbye mother, father… I wish you two didn't have to be this cold.". He wanted to get away, go somewhere so he could not endure seeing such proud and yet humble folk take such abuse. He was leaving his home, and going into the heart of New Orleans. Aubert was going to pick up a dear friend of his, one who he was developing a crush on. It was a little girl by the name of Magali, a twelve year-old that was full of life and fire!

Magali was a year older then Aubert, and she plus her family were different then the other white citizens in the land. They respected and treated blacks like equals, being friendly to them and also helping them out when need be. Magali's family owned a medicine store that sold all kind of remedies and such to people, be they black or white or whatever. Though they made the best medicine in the city, they were looked down upon by others due to treating blacks like human beings. However, that was just one of the things that made Magali different from other girls. She had a spirit that was like a volcano, fiery and ready to explode the moment they saw something bad and/or wrong. While Aubert defended himself and others with words and logic… his friend was the opposite! If she saw someone picking on the weak or helpless, she just go to town with fists blazing! Other bullies, be they boys or girls, laughed that she would try and pick a fight with them. They usually were silenced by a good punch to the face, or a kick right in the universal weak spot of men. And she was strong, despite her slender and beautiful frame suggested.

Aubert went to the family's medical store, which also functioned as a home. He found the sign Macaire Medicines: Best in Town, and looked around. He thought, 'That's strange… I know we talked about this, and she said she was going to wait for me outside and help me find a passage out of this place. So, where…?'. He peered inside the store, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see through it. He was wondering on what to do now, until he heard some noise going over near the docks. He was now curious, as there was supposed to be no one else out and about at this late hour. He quietly left the store area, going down an alley and towards one of the docks that was on the riverside. He arrived, and saw that a large steam-powered riverboat named Magical Wonder had lights on! Someone was aboard the ship way past regulation hours! His logical side told him to leave it be, but his heart told him to go check it out. Something was calling to him, his conscious telling him to investigate. So swallowing his fear down, Aubert crept down towards the dock and towards the riverboat.

The La Bouff boy managed to sneak and creep up next to the tall, imposing riverboat before being forced to duck behind a barrel! He saw someone coming, and didn't want to risk a chance of someone seeing him! Especially if it was of the criminal kind. He saw that this man was dressed in a worker's uniform, and thanks to some light from the floating vessel, that this particular man was white in color and looked to be around his mid-40's. Said man mumbled something gruffly under his breath, then picked up some rope that was nearby, turned around and walked back to the ship. Aubert thought, 'What is going on here? Who was that, and why are they working on the ship so early in the morning?'. Something inside of his gut told him that something was wrong… very wrong. He waited until the elderly man was gone, then managed to climb aboard the ship by leaping onto it from his position! Though he was not fearless like his friend, he did take chances when it called for it. Once on board the riverboat, the young lad made his way to where the showroom was located at. It was all thanks to his parents taking him on such lavish trips in the past on magnificent vessels like these that he knew where the showroom was.

Aubert carefully made his way down to the showroom in the upper levels… and saw a sight that made his heart beat fast, his eyes widen and his jaw nearly drop to the ground! Below him on the main floor were two other men, all dressed in dark worker outfits, of the white color, and all in their mid to late-20's. In the middle of the room was a LARGE pile of money! Cash, jewels, and other valuables were all together in one large pile! Aubert said to himself, "Gasp… this is the work of that three crooks that have been causing trouble in New Orleans these past few days! Papa muttered something just this morning that most of the stores around the place had been robbed, but no one found any evidence of the crooks! This must be them!". He looked to see the third member come in, but what he saw around the pile got his attention fully! Near the pile of ill-gotten gain was… Magali!

The young lass had deep brown hair, blue eyes and fair skin with a light tan to it. She looked to be around 4'11 or so, but it was hard to tell since she was bound and tied up with rope. The struggling girl was tied up in thick rope, the kind used to anchor boats to the docks. Around her mouth was a white cloth, tied up to prevent her from calling for help, though her muffled yells spoke that was trying to. One of the thugs said, "Boss, how about we just drop the girl in the river and get out of here already?! We need to leave this place before we leave any kind of trail for the law to follow us!". Magali just glared at the two crooks who ambushed her as she waited for Aubert. The two thieves had run into the girl by accident, and decided not to take any chances and abducted her from the scene. Though, she did put up quite a fight judging from the bite, punch and scratch marks on their faces.

The elderly man spoke, "Calm down, son. We'll get away soon enough. Besides, we may need to girl as extra insurance just in case…". THAT did not bode well for either Aubert or Magali, and the young La Bouff lad knew he had to do something quick. He looked around, and saw that there was an open door besides his friend. He believed that if he could distract the crooks long enough, he would sneak in and untie Magali, and they both could escape from the boat and tell the law! Well… he was hoping the lawmen were up at this time of night.

Aubert thought, 'Okay now, think… think! What can I do to distract the goons there?'. He looked around his position, hoping to find something he could use to his advantage. He spotted various knick-knacks and such, but nothing useful. He was about to go and search the place when he spotted some bats that were sleeping in a darkened room. The light from down below only managed to cover the lower and mid-levels, but not the upper ones. Aubert quickly formed a plan, and very much hoped that it worked. He carefully made his way towards the large room filled with the flying mammals, who were sleeping peacefully while hanging upside down. Once he was at the end of the darkened room, careful not to make too much noise… Aubert jumped a let out a short but high yelp that caused the bats to quickly stir from their slumber!

The three men heard the yell, and were immediately on guard and wondering what was going on up above. They got their answer when a whole horde of bats just quickly swarmed into the area they were in! The flying mammals believed that they were under attack by a predator, such as a large owl or other raptor birds. The bright lights told them that this was bad because the predator could see them! So, they flew about in a blind panic to try and escape! The three crooks yelled out and started to either cover their faces from the attacking bats! Aubert, who escaped unscathed miraculously, made his way down to the place where the door was near Magali. Thankfully, the bats did not attack her since she was bound and was not attacking them. The girl looked in fascination at what was taking place, then felt someone working on the knots behind her back! She turned… and was surprised to see that it was her friend!

"Shhh, Magali! Just give me a minute to get this knot undone!" Aubert whispered as he worked on the tight knot of the rope. The young lady was very much surprised to see her mild friend doing something so… daring. It took a few minutes, but he finally got the rope around her untied! It slid loose, and the two were about to escape… when they felt someone grab them by their collars and haul them up easily! They turned to see one of the younger goons, glaring at them and having multiple cuts and such on his face! The bats were gone, and the three human crooks were all bit, cut, and slashed up due to the flying mammals tiny but sharp teeth and claws.

"Well, well, well… we got ourselves a little hero, boys! A fool trying to save his girl! Isn't that just might sweet?" the goon laughed, and his partner joined in the laughing. But the burly, elderly leader of the trio was not amused. He had a very dissatisfied look on his face, and he took the kids out of the grasp of his young criminal partner. He threw the young ones on the pile of money, Magali and Aubert groaning in pain from the rough landing.

"You two should have just stayed in bed. Now, you're coming with us to make sure the law don't get any clever ideas if they spot us. Now… any last words before we cast off?" he told them gruffly, leaning over the two in a menacing way. Aubert did his best to look brave, and Magali just glared at the large crook before her. Before anything else could be said or done, another voice came out from above!

"I have a few words… leave the kids alone, criminal." a deep, unfamiliar voice spoke from the darkness above. The crooks looked up, taking out some pistols and knives to see who was trying to play hero. Aubert and Magali looked up as well to see who it was that came to save them. They all got their answer when dropping in from the darkness above and into the light… was Jet Jaguar! All human eyes widened when they saw the strange being before them, who was slowly rising to his full height after landing from his jump to the lower levels.

Jet Jaguar said, "Okay… who wants to dance?". He took a martial arts stance, showing he was ready to go!


(Author's Notes: And… cut! That is it for this chapter! Whew… this was one tough chapter to make! I hope you all liked it. Next chapter, get ready to see Jet Jaguar lay the smack down on these three criminal scum!

It was hard for me because of two things; writing a song that would fit in with Genie and introducing King Caesar to Agrabah, just like what he did to Aladdin when he wished to be Prince Ali. And also, finding the past background and such for the ancestors of Charlotte La Bouff. Aubert and Magali are her grandparents, which makes them the parents of future heir Eli Big Daddy La Bouff! Believe me, I give more respect and credit to the Disney music makers, song writers, and those who do background on characters for the movies. It sure ain't easy, but it's well worth it!

So, how did you like the little Easter eggs and Hidden Mickey's here? I used the name of the ship, the Magical Wonder, by merging two familiar ship names from the Disney Cruise Line! I went on one with my sister in August 2009, the Disney Magic on a 7-night Western Caribbean cruise. And it was incredible! I used the ship's name, and the Disney Wonder to make the name of the riverboat vessel here in the novel.

Are any of you surprised that Razoul is still Captain of the Royal Guards? I saw him the in three movie series of Aladdin, then when the cartoon series came out on Disney Channel. Also, check out my first novel to see on who is going to be coming in this story soon! Hehehe… can you guess or tell me who it is?

Now for the questions: What would you be thinking after seeing Genie's little parade? If you were Razoul, what would your brain be doing after seeing King Caesar move and such? If you were Aubert, how would you figure out a plan to get Magali out of there? And finally… if you were Jet Jaguar, what would you say to the crooks before engaging in the fight?

R&R, no flames, enjoy and leave long reviews!)
