.:Author's Notes:.
Zera: hello world and all who inhabit it!
Yoko: (mutters) baka…
Zera: huh?
YokoL (acts innocent) nothing…
Zera: okay, anyway…we're in Agrabah!
Yoko: yippy! (sarcasm)
Zera: meanie…Sora go do the disclaimer cause I'm too lazy right now.
Sora: (gets shoved onto random stage) …uh, okay. She does not own KH. I won't say anything else because she is kinda scary when she's angry.
Zera: Yoko's even scarier when she's mad…
Yoko: hn.
Zera: nya…I got nothing else to say. Here's the chappie!
The Pain of Being Stubborn
"Come on! Let's go check the town out before everybody wakes up!" Zera said as she ran ahead. Everyone followed with mild interest. It was late at night so nobody was up. Zera was skipping down the path and managed to get Kairi and Sora to join her. Takuto, Yoko, Donald, and Goofy walked behind them. Zera stopped suddenly causing Sora and Kairi to fall over from the abrupt stop. Yoko had stopped as well. Sora opened his mouth to say something before Yoko shushed him.
"Quiet. Listen. Someone's coming," she whispered. They heard a few things fall in the next alley over and eventually some shouting.
"Get back here you street rat!" they yelled. Zera smiled.
"Looks like we're gonna run into Aladdin," she stated.
They saw a man with thick black hair, wearing white baggy, ripped pants, a purple vest, and a small hat on his head run into the area they were standing in. Yoko and Zera nodded to each other in silent agreement. Yoko grabbed his arm and they began to run. The group split up, having now understood the plan. Yoko and Aladdin ran through twists and turns, jumped onto ledges and finally made it to a ledge with large barrels on it that was able to hide both of them. He was about to say something when she shushed him too.
"Where'd he go?" a thin man asked. A rather muscular man, the general, looked around and rubbed his chin.
"I don't know. We'll find him sooner or later," he said. They walked off, most likely to the palace. They stayed quiet for a moment longer until they were sure the guards were gone.
"Who are you and why did you help me?" Aladdin demanded.
"I'm Yoko and I helped you because I can. Now come on. I have to go find everybody and tell them you're okay," she told him. She jumped easily from their hiding spot to the ground and he followed after her. Zera and Takuto ran down the alleyway in search of their friends.
"Where'd they go?" Takuto asked.
"Hmm. . .?" Zera said. "I'm not sure, but I think that they went...THAT AWAY!" She pointed some random direction.
"You sure?"
"Yes."
"..."
"Wait…no," Zera said. Takuto shrugged and they went the direction that Zera had pointed.
Meanwhile Sora and Kairi were walking aimlessly through the alleyways. They were trying to find where Donald and Goofy had gone and then everyone else.
"…where the heck are they!" Kairi shouted.
"Calm down Kairi. We'll find them soon. Besides, I wanna see how Aladdin's been doing," Sora said, trying to calm down the fuming girl walking beside him. She sighed.
"Yeah I know. But we've been looking for almost fifteen minutes now," she said.
"We'll find them soon. Don't worry," Sora told her. And so they walked on, looking for their friends.
Donald and Goofy were already where they had first met Aladdin and were waiting for everybody. Zera and Takuto walked into the small square soon and saw the two animals.
"Hey guys!" Zera said, waving to them.
"Where are everybody else, ahyuck," Goofy asked.
"Beats me. We all split up so we have no idea," Takuto answered.
"Aw, phooey," Donald said. Then they saw Yoko and Aladdin run in from one alleyway and Sora and Kairi run in from the other.
"THERE YOU ARE!" Kairi shouted at everyone.
"Yell at me again and I will be forced to kill you," Yoko said. Kairi ran behind Sora and cowered. Yoko grinned in victory.
"Okay, now please explain to me what is going on," Aladdin said. "And Sora you said you wouldn't be able to visit for a while."
"Change of plans," Sora said pointing to Yoko and Zera. Zera waved and Yoko just stood there with her arms crossed.
"Okay, we came here to check on Jasmine for we, Yoko and myself, are keyblade masters like Sora here," Zera said with a smile. "And it just so happened that Yoko saved your ass so here you are! YAY!"
"Uh-huh," Aladdin said. "Well, it's nice to meet you…?"
"Whatever," Yoko said.
"HI!" Zera said. Yoko slapped her upside the head and Zera gasped.
"Give me your hand!" she shouted. She grabbed Yoko's hand and slapped it.
"Okay, then," Aladdin said. He then leaned over to Sora to whisper something to him. "Are they always like this?"
"Pretty much," Sora said. "By the way, can we stay at your place? You know, just for some rest?"
"Uh, sure," Aladdin said. "Follow me." Zera, Sora, and Kairi skipped behind Aladdin as the others walked and frowned because of their friends' stupidity.
And so, they got to Aladdin's uh…house. They all slept how they were most comfortable. Donald and Goofy lay on the ground, Sora and Kairi cuddled together under a blanket Aladdin had given them, Yoko slept with her back against the wall, Zera just laid down and went to sleep but ended up moving over to force Takuto to let her sleep on his lap. He minded a little by their closeness, but had to deal with it as Zera had already fallen asleep and slept with his back against the wall like Yoko. They woke up the next morning with their necks and backs a bit sore. Aladdin announced that he was going to check up on Jasmine and everyone else had decided that they would go check out the market.
"Do we have money to buy stuff?" Kairi asked.
"Of course! …wait, do we?" Zera asked. Yoko just rolled her eyes.
"Yes we do. But don't make us go broke!" she said. Kairi and Zera nodded happily. They walked into the busy area and tried not to get lost. At some point though they had lost Donald and Goofy, but they would find them later.
"Woo! Look at that!" Zera and Kairi shouted. Yoko watched her two friends run from shop to shop. Takuto and Sora walked behind them and talked about guy stuff.
"LOOKIE!" Zera shouted. She and Kairi ran up to a small food stand.
"We're not going to buy to much," Yoko said. "We can't spend all of our money in one area."
"What are you? The money police?" Kairi asked.
"Was that a wise-ass comment?" Yoko asked.
"Eep," Kairi said. "No."
"Good," Yoko said. Sora and Takuto helped Yoko choose what to buy while Kairi and Zera ran around looking at other stands.
"LOOKIE! …again…" Zera said. She pointed to a man who was juggling fire batons. "LOOK DAMMIT!"
"Fine," Yoko said. She saw the man, lost interest, and went back to what she was doing. Suddenly she felt a tug at her arm and then found herself being dragged, unwillingly, towards the man by Zera.
"WTF!" Yoko yelled as she was being pulled. They had gotten to the front of the crowd and Zera was staring at the man in awe.
"That's so awesome! I love you dude!" she yelled randomly. Yoko rolled her eyes and turned to walk away when she felt something hit her back. A few people around her screamed and ran. Yoko looked over her shoulder and saw the handle of a dagger protruding from her back.
"Holy shit Yoko! You have a dagger in your back!" Zera yelled.
"Uh…yeah. I noticed. Now could you take it out? I can't reach it," Yoko said, unusually calm. Zera took it out and was about to go look for some bandages for the wound when a small man came up to them.
"Are you alright miss? I'm sorry that hit you. I called out a warning but I don't think you heard me," he said. Yoko glared at the man.
"You were the one who threw it?" she yelled.
"Oh, so now she goes ballistic," Zera muttered. Yoko began to chase the poor man around the square and no one dared to get in the way. She still had blood running from her wound. Takuto, Sora, and Kairi had found them and saw the scene.
"What the hell?" Takuto asked. Yoko stopped chasing the man and fell to the floor unconscious because she lost too much blood. 'Hmm, maybe that was enough to kill her. At least I don't have to do it,' he thought.
"Yoko, are you okay?" Zera asked. "Yoko? YOKO THIS ISN'T FUNNY! IS THIS ANOTHER ONE OF YOUR SICK AND TWISTED JOKES THAT YOU PULL ON ME EVERY YEAR! IF IT IS YOUR ACTING SUCKS!"
"I don't think she's acting," Kairi said.
"Hey guys," Aladdin said walking up to them. "Jasmine said- HOLY SHIT! What happened to her?"
"She was stabbed," Zera said.
"Well, you just don't let your friend lay there bleeding to death!" Aladdin said. He put Yoko on his back and they all walked back to Aladdin's place. Zera was still freaking out on the way. They sat in silence at Aladdin's house for a while.
"Did you ever notice that Yoko's name means positive?" Sora said randomly.
"But she's always so negative about everything," Kairi said.
"Um…her parent's were confused…?" Zera said uncertainly.
"Or they thought she'd turn out really nice," Takuto said. Aladdin didn't say anything…and Donald and Goofy were still lost…somewhere.
"Where's Donald and Goofy?" Sora asked, looking around. The two animals suddenly burst through the doorway.
"Where have you guys been?" Kairi asked.
"We were being chased all over town by some guy who wanted to put us in cages to show in his traveling caravan," Goofy said. They were out of breath.
"What happened to her?" Donald asked. He poked Yoko and by a natural reaction she sat up and punched him across the room. She rubbed her eyes tiredly.
"Who'd I hit?" she asked.
"Donald but that's not important! You're okay!" Zera yelled, glomping the other girl with a hug. "You know what? A nice carpet ride will make you feel better!"
Yoko got up and noticed that her entire chest was wrapped up. She put her shirt back on and then her jacket. She looked at her friends.
"Hell no," she said.
"MEANIE!" Zera said. "Your going whether you like it or not!"
"I'm not going and that's that!"
Three minutes later. . . . . . . . .
"I can't believe that I'm on this damn carpet," Yoko said with her arms crossed. They were flying over the desert's golden sand and there was nothing to look at really. Then…
BA BOOM!
From the sand erupted Kurt Zisa. They saw that he was fighting a man in a black outfit and he had silver hair.
"Hey, it's Riku!" Sora shouted.
"R-Riku?" Yoko said. Zera elbowed her friend and smiled.
"I told ya we'd find him!" Zera said. Yoko hit her friend over the head and was blushing a bit from anger and embarassment.
"It looks like he's fighting alone," Sora said. "I have to help him!" He was about to ask Aladdin to land carpet, but Yoko jumped off.
"WHAT THE HELL!" Zera and Takuto shouted.
Yoko landed about ten feet away from Riku. He looked at the girl and she looked at him.
"Looks like you could use some help," she said.
"This isn't for beginners," Riku said. "Go home before you-ACK!" He was hit the chest and Yoko went in for an attack. Zera and Takuto were shocked that Yoko jumped and didn't break any of her bones.
'She just won't die!' Takuto thought. 'Next time I'm pushing her off myself and Zera's going with her! Wait, no…yes…no…yes…no…GAH!"
"Go Yoko and Riku!" Zera shouted. "Kick some ass!" Zera, Sora, and Kairi pulled out some random popcorn and watched in amusement.
Yoko backed away from Kurt Zisa as he regained strength from her earlier attacks. Riku got up and started to help Yoko. He got up and was in a barrier that was impenetrable and could only be destroyed by Thunder attacks.
"Dammit!" Yoko shouted.
"I told you to leave!" Riku shouted.
"Stand back and watch you jackass!" Yoko shouted. "Thundaga!" Thunder struck the shield that surrounded the heartless and weakened it. "Now you try lord of the ass holes."
"Someone is full of themselves," Riku said. He too used a thunder attack to weaken the shield as well.
"Zera! Get your ass down here!" Yoko shouted.
"Too lazy to move!" Zera shouted. "But you can have Donald!"
"You send that shit-ass duck down here and I will kill you!" Yoko shouted.
"You just wanna watch her fight," Takuto said.
"She doesn't need to know that," Zera said. Kurt Zisa suddenly disappeared.
"Wha-?" Yoko said. Kurt Zisa was destroyed, but by who? She looked over at Riku who was the one that destroyed Kurt Zisa with some weird move that she didn't even know existed.
"My puppet was destroyed?"
"Who said that?" Sora said. They looked around and then saw Jafar. "It's Jafar! My mortal enemy!"
"I thought Ansem was," Zera said.
"Um…maybe…" Sora said.
"Uhh……?" Zera said unable to come up with something to say to that.
"Dammit," Yoko and Riku said.
"Now to get rid of the brats," Jafar said. He lifted his staff and pointed it at Riku. Then he shot that weird beam-like-aura-thing at Riku.
"Shit," Riku said. He closed his eyes, but when he opened them Yoko was standing in front of him. "What the hell are you doing?"
"Saving your shit-ass life," Yoko said and then fell to her knees holding her chest where the beam had hit her. Zera once again freaked out because her friend had been hit twice in the same day. They were fatal hits too.
"We need more bandages right?" Kairi asked.
"Yep," Zera said. "Now land this damn carpet….I said land it dammit!"
Aladdin was quick to comply and swiftly landed on the sand. Zera jumped off and ran to Yoko as Riku was now battling Jafar. She kneeled down next to her.
"You okay? How bad is it? Does it hurt?" she asked. Yoko winced as she stood up.
"Just a little. I'm fine though. Now I'm gonna go show that ass who the stronger one is," she said and then rushed in to fight with Jafar too. Riku looked at Yoko and his eyes widened when he saw all the blood on her shirt and the blood that stained her pants.
"How can you be standing!" he shouted with his eyes wide.
"I don't give up," Yoko said. "No matter how injured I am!" She and Riku went in for another attack and eventually killed Jafar again. Sora made sure he was dead by poking him with a stick.
"He is dead," Sora stated with a big smile. "Yay!"
"I guess I should say thanks," Riku said. "Name's Riku."
"Yoko," she said. She felt a sharp pain in her chest and collapsed. Riku caught her and Zera rushed over. She, out of panic, pushed Riku out of the way.
"ACK!"
"MEDIC!" Zera shouted. "She needs a god damn medic!"
"She's needs anger management too," Takuto said.
"That can come later!" Zera shouted.
Later on the gummi ship……
Yoko opened her eyes and saw that she was in the infirmary. She looked down and saw that her entire chest was wrapped up again. She had her left forearm wrapped as well. She got up and looked around the room. Silence was a good thing for her and something she wanted more of. She noticed that she wasn't wearing a shirt and looked around for it, but Zera must have taken it to get the blood out or at least see if it could. She walked out of the infirmary in search of her friends.
"Dammit!" Zera shouted. "The damn blood won't come out!" She and Kairi were trying to desperately get the blood out of Yoko's shirt.
"Try using warm water Zera," Kairi said. She tried but failed.
"GOD DAMN BLOOD! IT RUINED HER GOOD SHIRT AND NOW SHE WILL TAKE HER UN-TAIMED FURY OUT ON ME!" Zera shouted in anguish.
"Calm down," Takuto said as he, Sora, and Riku played cards.
"Go god damn fish, Sora," Riku said.
"Ugh," Sora said drawing a card.
"Well, don't you all look comfy." Zera whipped her head around to see Yoko. She grinned.
"YOU ARE ALIVE!" she shouted glomping her friend.
"Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow," Yoko said. "That hurts you shit head!"
"Sorry," Zera said. She got off and smiled innocently.
"I told you to leave and yet you stayed," Riku said. "You have one BIG ego."
"YOU ASS!" Yoko shouted. "I SAVED YOUR DAMN LIFE AND ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY IS THAT! I SHOULD HAVE JUST LET YOU DIE OUT THERE AND WALK AWAY!"
"Here we go again," Zera said. "Now back to the shirt. . ." She started to work on the shirt again, but was having very bad luck.
