Prompt:

: Starlight Leads Me Home :

"Donald, look!"

The duck snapped his sight to the skies, just in time to witness another twinkling star die, it's once brilliant radiance sucked and swamped under the destruction of darkness. He groaned sadly.

"What'll we do, Goofy?" he questioned; wide eyes filled with fear an uncertainty. "What if the King is on one of those worlds?!"

The oversized dog smiled softly, trying to reassure his worried friend. But no smile of any size could conceal his concern for King Mickey's safety. "Aw, you shouldn' worry about the King. He'll be fine!"

"But Goofy…" the duck pressed on, "…he can't go in the Darkness all by himself!"

It was then that the knight smiled genuinely, and he laughed a bit.

Donald's eyes narrowed in annoyance. "Hey! What're you laughing about?!"

Goofy replied, "Well, the King ain't alone! He's got all of Disney Castle with him, y'know."

"He does?"

"Yup! Right here…" the dog placed his gloved hand over his chest, right where his own beating heart lay. He chuckled happily, "As lon' as King Mickey knows we're rootin' for him, then the Darkness won't touch him!"

The wizard had to admit that his friend had a point. "But what if our world falls to the Darkness too?" he quacked, pressing his concerns further. "What if the starlight goes away?"

Goofy grinned in his usual goofy way. "That's easy, Donald! We don't need any starlight comin' from Disney Castle. Neither does the King!" The duck stamped his foot impatiently. Now, Goofy just wasn't making sense anymore.

"What?"

"The starlight's in here!" He pointed towards the duck's chest, but he knew the companion knew he what he meant.

"My heart?"

"Yup! Ahyuck! And in everybody's hearts!" The knight gazed back up at the dark sky. "As lon' as we got starlight there, we don't ever have to worry about getting home! And neither does King Mickey!"

"Ohh…" Donald looked up at the sky as well, and silently hoped that his far-away friend would never lose his starlight.

The drabble-prompt was based off the first time in KH1 when Donald and Goofy went to Traverse Town, and they saw the star go out.

Personally, I think this one is sorta cute… And it's my first drabble with Donald and Goofy in it! :D I gotta add them in more often…
