Right after the keepers returned Luowski, they immediately went to sleep, along with Luowski again. It was tough for him to fall back asleep, but he managed.
All the keepers woke up in Main Street. They all looked at each other.
"Alright guys!" said Amanda. "You all remember the plan right?"
Their plan was obvious. The Dark One was headed toward Big Thunder Mountain to collect the first relic they need to make the portal.
"There's no doubt about it that he is bringing with him OTKs and probably Overtakers," said Dillard.
"Which is why Wayne had sent cast member warriors to hold them off already," Maybeck said.
"Let's hope they can handle it," said Willa.
"Let's go guys!" yelled Philby. "Less talk, more stopping Finn!"
"He's not Finn!" yelled Amanda as they began to run. "He's the Dark One!"
They dashed over to Frontierland and headed toward Big Thunder Mountain.
When they got to the attraction, they all screamed at what they saw.
Standing around the place was dead cast members. They couldn't hold them off.
"They were innocent," sighed Mattie.
"The Dark One is truly heartless," said Charlene.
They could hear commotion going on in the attraction.
"Come on guys!" said Amanda. "Let's sneak in."
They snuck in through the waiting area and onto the tracks they could hear the sounds of people chatting.
They soon came to an open area where they immediately hid behind rocks.
They could see a bunch of OTKs standing around. They were looking into the cave that the ride goes through first thing. Standing at the entrance to the cave was Jafar and Dr. Facilier.
"Is it their master?" yelled Dr. Facilier.
They could hear a soft chuckle, which grew louder.
Then they heard footsteps, as Finn stepped out of the cave.
"Yes," he said. "I can break down the wall and get to the door. But you need to hold off the keepers."
The keepers gasped. How did the Finn know that they were here.
"My lord," said Jafar. "Are you saying they are here now? In the parks? Are they close?"
Finn smiled and drew his sword. He then lifted it into the sky, and lighting suddenly struck down on the mountain that the keepers were hiding behind.
"Closer than you think," he said laughing.
The keepers, now revealed, stood up confidently.
"We won't let you get the relic!" yelled Luowski.
"You're not getting away with this!" yelled Philby.
"Give up now and give us back Finn or else…" Amanda began to say.
"Or else what?" asked the Finn. "You'll kill me?"
Amanda gulped.
"Oh that's right! You can't," said Finn. "You could never harm the boy you love."
"I love Finn," said Amanda gritting her teeth. "Not the Dark One you beast!"
"Finn isn't here anymore!" Finn yelled. "The Dark One is staying!"
"No you're not!" yelled Dillard. "We will free Finn and defeat you!"
Finn just burst out laughing.
"You see everyone? This is what I love about these fools," he said. "They are always begging for death."
He stared at the keepers.
"You hear that everyone?" he asked. "You are constantly begging for death!"
Amanda clutched her fists.
"Anyway I don't have time for this," said Finn. "But to make sure you don't follow me, here's a little present for you."
He raised his sword up high as energy shot from it and over to another side of the ride.
The keepers suddenly heard a loud roar. They could see the skeleton dinosaur that was in the attraction suddenly come to life. The bones attached to each other and made it move. It was alive.
"Help my friends hold these shits off!" Finn commanded.
"Count on us to do it!" said Dr. Facilier.
Finn smiled and walked back into the cave.
"NO!" yelled Amanda. She jumped off the mountain and onto the ground.
She stared at the enemies in front of her.
"OUT…OF…OUR…WAY!" yelled Amanda as she threw her hands back preparing to use her powers.
Before she could push the enemies, she was stopped. Something was holding her back.
"What the?" she said.
She looked down. Shadows were holding onto her arms, preventing her from moving.
"You don't think I would go anywhere without my friends on the other side?" asked Dr. Facilier.
Amanda stared at the enemies.
"You will not lay a hand on our master!" yelled Jafar.
He shot a fireball at Amanda, but Luowski jumped right in front of her in time, letting himself get hit.
"Luowski!" yelled Amanda.
"Everyone attack!" Luowski yelled.
All the keepers jumped of the mountain and engaged in a fight against the OTKs.
Amanda and Philby went after the dinosaur.
It roared loudly at them. They both stood firmly and glared at it.
"It's just made of bones," said Amanda.
"All he needs is a good push," said Philby.
Amanda nodded. Just as the dinosaur charged at them, Amanda thrust her arms back and used her powers to give the skeleton a big push. It threw it back into the mountain, and fell apart. It was dead, again.
"Let's go stop the Dark One!" said Amanda.
Philby nodded. They snuck quietly past Jafar and Dr. Facilier. Luowski, Maybeck, and Mattie were holding them off. The others were fighting the keepers.
Amanda and Philby picked up swords from fallen OTKs and walked towards the cave.
Just as they were about to enter, the ground began to shake, and so did the mountain. It knocked everyone off his or her feet.
When the ground stopped shaking, everyone stood up. Dr. Facilier and Jafar saw Amanda and Philby about to go into the cave.
"Hey!" yelled Jafar.
The two keepers quickly dashed inside.
"Where are my friends on the other side!?" yelled Dr. Facilier as he saw the two run inside and his shadows didn't stop them.
"They must have run off when the ground shook," said Jafar.
"Then we have to stop them!" said Facilier.
They both ran in following the keepers.
The four ran inside and saw something that blew their minds.
A part of the wall was destroyed and a doorway was standing in its place.
"Come on!" yelled Philby.
"NO!" yelled Jafar. "You're not going anywhere!"
Amanda and Philby turned around and faced the Overtakers.
"Let's get them," said Amanda.
Philby nodded and gripped his sword.
"I'll take Jafar and you take Facilier," Philby said.
Amanda nodded. She thrust her hands and launched wall debris at Dr. Facilier as he launched green lighting bolts at her. They both cancelled.
Philby clashed his sword with Jafar's staff. They both slashed at each other.
"You won't take Finn!" Amanda yelled.
"He's not Finn darling," said Dr. Facilier. "He's the Dark One."
"Give him back!" yelled Amanda.
She launched a powerful push that made stalactites fall from the ceiling. She held the stalactites over Dr. Facilier and Jafar. They began to duck as Amanda made them fall closer and closer to their faces. If she were to let them go they would impale the two.
"Give back Finn now!" she yelled.
"No!" said Jafar.
"Even if we wanted to we don't know how!" said Dr. Facilier.
"That's because there is no way," said a voice.
Amanda turned around. Finn was standing in front of the portal. He was using his dark powers to make shadows hold Philby in the air.
Finn then drew his sword and pointed it at Philby's neck.
"Release my friends or Philby dies," Finn said.
"Finn please listen to me," Amanda said. "You don't have to do this. You have the power to fight this curse! Please come back to us."
Finn stared at Amanda and smiled.
"I will count to three and if you don't release my friends I will stab Philby in the neck and spill his blood all over the place," Finn said. "And then I will personally hand his dead body to Willa to let her see the horror."
Amanda stared at Finn in shock.
"You sadistic bastard," she said.
"I'm the Dark One," said Finn. "What did you expect?"
"I expected there to be a little bit of Finn left in that body, or heart," said Amanda. A tear rolled down her eye.
"Well you thought wrong!" said Finn. "There is no Finn left, and unless you release my friends, I will kill Phibly."
"My name is not Phibly!" yelled Philby.
"Shut up nerd!" yelled Finn. He poked Philby's neck with the tip of his sword. A small amount of blood dripped down his neck.
"Okay! Okay!" Amanda yelled. She moved the stalactites away from Dr. Facilier and Jafar, making them fall on the ground away from them, and break apart.
Amanda turned towards Finn.
"Now give me Philby!" she yelled.
Finn smiled.
"You want him?" he asked. "Here you go!"
He grabbed Philby and stabbed him with his sword. He groaned as the blade stuck in his stomach.
"NOOOOO!" Amanda yelled.
Finn laughed menacingly as he pulled the blade out of Philby and threw him at Amanda.
Amanda ran over towards Philby. She bent down with tears rushing down her eyes. She pressed down on Philby's stab wound to try to stop the bleeding.
Dr. Facilier and Jafar stood up and walked over to Finn.
"Did you get it?" Jafar asked.
Finn smiled and held up a curved relic.
"Yes!" Dr. Facilier exclaimed.
Finn smiled. He then stared at Amanda.
"How could you?" Amanda asked. "HE WAS YOUR FRIEND!"
"No he was Finn's friend," said Finn. "And as I already said, I am the Dark One. And I am completely heartless."
Amanda glared at Finn. She wanted to make all the stalactites fall right on him and stab him through his skull. She wanted to take his blade and thrust it through his heart. She wanted to give him the push that held back the first night she met the Dark One. But she couldn't. Every time she looked at him, she still saw Finn. No matter if he was evil, she couldn't find it in herself to harm him.
"I could kill if you right now!" Finn said. "I could kill all of you with the snap of my fingers. I could burn you all to crisps. You would be dead in minutes.
Amanda glared at him, tears running down her face. Her eyes were red and burning with anger.
Finn then smiled.
"But what would be the fun in that?" he asked.
Now Amanda was fuming, while tears gushed down her face like a waterfall.
"Look on the bright side," Finn said. "Now Willa won't be distracted by her love for Phibly. Like I said, love is weakness."
Amanda clutched her fists.
"You motherfucker! Shut up!" she yelled.
"See you next time we meet," Finn said.
He laughed menacingly as Finn, Jafar, Dr. Facilier and the rest of the OTKs disappeared into smoke.
The keepers could hear Amanda crying.
They ran inside and Willa screamed. They saw Amanda sitting Philby up. Blood covered her legs as it spilled out of his back.
Willa burst into tears as she ran up to her boyfriend.
"Philby!" Willa yelled.
"Willa…" Philby groaned.
"Someone get Wayne on the phone and tell him to get Rapunzel or someone who has healing powers for when we return!" yelled Jess.
"I'll do it!" said Mattie. "I have his number!"
Mattie quickly called Wayne and told him the situation.
"He's getting help!" she said.
Willa stared into Philby's eyes.
"Hang in there Philby!" Willa said. "You are not going to die."
"Kiss me Willa please," Philby said. "Just in case I die."
"You are not going to die!" Willa said. "But I will kiss you because you said please."
She brought her lips to his bloody lips. Blood was dripping out of his mouth.
"Get the return!" Charlene yelled.
Amanda pulled out the return.
"Everyone press it!" he said.
Everyone pressed the button. Willa made Philby press it.
Back at the apartment, Philby was put immediately into medical treatment. Rapunzel and Grand Pabbie were healing him.
"Is this going to be the same every night?" asked Dillard. "Someone every night is going to get stabbed by Finn…I mean the Dark One."
"We need to find someway to free him from the curse," Maybeck said.
"But how?" asked Amanda. "How can we free Fin when he isn't even in that body?"
"That's what we need to figure out," said a voice. Philby walked into the room, all healed.
"Philby!" yelled Willa as she ran up and kissed him.
"I'm okay," he said.
"What were you saying?" asked Luowski.
"I suggest instead of trying to stop the Dark One, we find a way to free him," said Philby.
"It is something I will look into," said Wayne. "But for now everyone sleep. That is what you came over for originally."
Everyone nodded.
"Is it really safe to sleep here in Disney while he's still out there?" asked Jess.
"Don't worry," said Wayne. "All of Disney will be watching over you and protecting you."
Everyone smiled slightly and headed upstairs to start their sleepover. Amanda longed for Finn to be by her side, but he wasn't.
The Dark One was here now, but that was what they needed to do.
"We need to bring Finn back," said Amanda. "I won't stop until those eyes are shimmering green again."
Jesus! Finn really has become evil. The Dark One is nothing but a heartless, sadistic, cruel, evil, and murderous demon. But could Finn still somewhat be in that body? In that heart? You will have to stay tuned to find out.
See you next update!
