ACK! I can't believe I haven't wrote chapter what? Five? AGUH! Man, I'm lagging behind in EVERYTHING! Might as well try to catch up with the chapter over the winter break right?

Gang: Um. . . .

I said Right?

MC Link: Right?

(Glomps him) YAYS!

MC Link: Um, you could let go of me and start the story Jennie.

Oh, right. Here it is!

Author's Note: Please let me know if there's ANYTHING in this story that needs to be fix (I.E. poor grammar, description, or misinformation of anything in this story)

CHAPTER FIVE: THE TEMPLE OF WIND'S SUBSTITUTE

FLOMP! The gang exploded out of a puffy white cloud, still spinning around like a carousal as they slowly landed on the cloud. Ezlo, the green cap, fell on the cloud, anime swirls appeared on his eyes.

"Link, that will be that LAST time I allow you to use me as a parachute! I already had enough of just only YOU using me, but now an extra load of three?" Ezlo lend his face angrily to Link's "GIVE ME A BREAK ALREADY!!!"

"Um, Ezlo, aren't you being a bit harsh to Link?" Sora asked, shaking his head to rid the dizziness he had.

"Harsh? As in the attitude that goose gave me?" Ezlo questioned, gesturing his beak towards Donald.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY FEATHER HEAD???" Donald roared, jumping towards Ezlo.

As always, Goofy and Sora jumped on top of him, pinning him to the ground away from the barking hat. "Donald, that's enough! You've been beating that hat up ever since you met him! Would you just knock it off just for a second?" Goofy asked, trying to cool the duck down before he pounded Ezlo senseless.

Link just picked up Ezlo and placed him on his head, "Come you guys, we just need to get through the dungeon to get to the boss."

"But what about the obstacles and enemies in there?" the brown hair boy questioned.

"Don't worry, I've already clear the building so it's safe to pass by so we can get to the boss a lot quicker." Link paused and turn to look at them, "You guys DO realize that you're standing on a cloud…right?"

The Kingdom Heart gang let out a cry in shock as they just notice that they were really indeed standing on a cloud.

Sora stomped on the cloud, "Wow, this is really weird."

"I'm guessing it isn't called the Palace of Winds for nothing," Goofy commented.

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Come on, the sooner we go in this place, the sooner we beat the boss and finally met with Vaati," Link spoke, running into the temple. Vaati watched as the whole group entered into the building.

"Is that what you think, eh Link?" the Minish sorcerer was twirling his hand around and around in a circle as he looked up at Pete, who was helplessly being spun in the air in one place, with a bored look on his face.

"Mister Vaati. . . .Could you . . . . Please let me . . . . .down from here?" Pete asked, feeling sick to his stomach.

"But I'm bored and I have nothing to entertain myself with," Vaati closed his eyes and shrugged, "But as you wish." He swung his hand to the side, causing Pete to crash through a pillar and into the wall.

"Ugh, not what I had in mind but at lease I'm on the ground, oof!" he fell to the floor as he tried to stand.

Vaati got up off the throne and brushed some of his lilac hair back off his shoulder, "I really hope this heartless of yours gets rid of those brats otherwise you'll be playing another fun game of," he concurred a dark orb in his hand and bounced it in his palm, "Dark orb dodge ball."

BLAM! Pete yelped in shock as he jumped away from the spot where he previously was, avoiding the dark orb's path. The evil Minish grinned, "Now THAT'S entertainment!"

KA-BLAM! Pete yelped again as Vaati threw a dark spell orb at him. "Maleficent isn't going to like this one bit" Pete muttered to himself, ducking behind the collapsed stone pillar.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Back in the temple, the gang finally walked up to a huge door that led to the boss inside.

(Yes I know you're suppose to jump on a bunch of clouds, but since this is a DIFFERENT boss, I change the entrance to the boss by using a door instead of jumping on clouds… Now on with the story!)

"Neither it's me, or I haven't seen any heartless around every since Dark Thorn attacked us," Donald remarked.

Sora scratched his head, "You're right, I haven't seen any heartless neither."

"You think that there may be one behind these doors?" Link suggested, glancing at the massive doors that stood before them. The whole group exchanged looks among themselves and again at the doors.

"Well, the only way to find out is to open these doors and see whatever is inside. It's still a monster we have to fight anyways," Ezlo pointed out.

The two young boys nodded and pushed the door to a huge open cloud field. Link drew out his blade as the others drew out their weapons too. After a long moment of silence, Link took a step forward; nothing.

"Something's not right here," Link muttered, turning to Sora, Donald, and Goofy.

KA-BLAM! The massive doors behind the group slammed shut behind the group. "Uh, I guess I'm going to agree with Link on this one," Goofy spoke, looking around nervously.

Sora glanced around the place, " I'm guessing that this 'boss' is a huge deal."

At that moment, a loud, screaming roar shuddered the thin air as a huge dragon jumped out of the clouds. Lighting bolted from it's wings and head horns as it roared again and dove back into the clouds.

"It's Storm Rider!" the Kingdom Hearts gang cried out.

The young elfin boy back-flipped away from a bolt that meant to hit him, "So how do you destroy this thing?"

Sora ran up farther in the battlefield, "You have to get on his baaaack!" The boy yelped when the heartless exploded from beneath Sora, causing him to fall on his behind on the monster's back.

Link nodded and quickly pulled out a white cape as he ran towards the flying beast. "Link! What are you doing?!? Get back here!" Goofy yelled at Link.

The duck turn to Goofy, "What's he going to do with that cape?"

Once Link had the cape on, he jumped up and flew across the air earning dumbstruck stares from Donald and Goofy as he landed right next to Sora. "Now what?" Link questioned out load over the monster's roar.

The kingdom Heart youth drew out his Key Blade, then slashed it at one of the spikes that generated electricity. The dragon screamed in pain as the blade knocked it's spike off. "HOLD ON!" Sora warned, bending down and grabbing one of Storm Rider's dorsal spikes.

Link dropped down and also held on to a dorsal spike as the huge beast flipped it self in mid air. SHOOSH! Donald and goofy both ducked down and cried out in surprise as the large monster flew past over their heads. "HEY! WATCH IT YOU!!!!!!!" Donald yelled at the dragon as it soar a bit higher in the air.

The Hyrulean boy held his blade out away from him and let out a cry as he swung his blade around, this time, wiping out two of the monster's spike. "Alright Link," Sora exclaimed, "Now we just need to hit that last spike. . . . Before it decides to throw us off agaaaaain!!!"

Sora lost his grip as Storm Rider fiercely twist in thin air like a out of control kite streamer in the wind. "Sora!" the boy cried out, watching Sora as he was about to fall through the clouds. Link slashed the final spine and dove towards the boy's hand, grabbing him throwing him up in the air. "NOW! Throw me!" Link ordered. (Kind of Think of this move as the Ice Climber Belay, but with out the rope)

Sora, glancing to see Storm Rider flying towards them, nodded as he swung around once and let go of the young Hyrulean boy. Bang! Link slashed his Picori Blade across the monster's face, causing him to slam into the densely form cloud, stunning itself for a moment.

Link and Sora quickly jumped at Storm Rider, madly slashing away at him. With a piercing scream, Storm Rider flapped it's wings as it took off. "We almost had him!" Sora muttered, holding his ground as the last of the strong gust passed by them.

"Sora! Link! Look out!" Goofy warned. The boys glance over to see Storm Rider landing on the other side of the battle field. CRACK! A barrier of electricity surrounded the group, trapping them inside a invisible barrier.

"We're trap!" Link exclaimed, glancing around himself. The dragon lowered it's head as it begin to generate a low humming noise.

"DUCK!" Sora yelped as he hit the ground.

Donald glared at Sora, "WHAT DID YOU SAY-QUACK!!!!!" Goofy grabbed Donald as the dragon released a huge beam of energy, causing it to soar deafening over the group.

Ezlo just shivered behind Link's head, "What IS that thing?!? I never seen anything the likes of it before!"

"No time for questions! We need to hit it before it neither flies off or attack again!" The brown hair youth explained, getting to his feet. "Donald! Take him out!"

The duck magician nodded, then raised his wand over his head as it shot out a fire spell. Blam! It landed in the heartless' face , causing it to release a ear-splitting scream. Link loaded an arrow in his bow and aimed it at the departing monster. The flying arrow just bounced harmlessly off the dragon's scales as it flew up into the air.

The barrier around them ceased as Storm Rider dove at the group again, unleashing a array of bombs on the group. Then at that moment, a bomb blew up next to Link, throwing him off the cloud.

"WAH!!!!" he cried out as he begin to fall.

"Link! Your cape! It's ripped in half!" Ezlo warned. Link grabbed his bow and arrow quickly and grabbed Ezlo, tying him around the shaft of the arrow. "Link my boy! What are you doing?!?"

Link, after tying Ezlo, notched the arrow and pointed at the cloud he was on, "I'm sorry Ezlo, but I need. . . you to continue this without me."

"No Link you can't do this!" The boy just let the arrow fly. "LINK!!!" As the hat flew towards the cloud, Link just disappeared into the green and blue of the land of Hyrule.

Poof! The arrow popped out of the clouds and stabbed itself into Storm Rider's eye, causing him to fall into the cloud. Sora, seeing that Ezlo was attached to the arrow, ran up to him and released him from the arrow shaft as Goofy and Donald attacked Storm Rider.

"Ezlo. Where's Link?" the boy asked as the monster let out a scream in pain before becoming destroyed fully.

The hat looked down, "He's gone."

"Gone?" Sora repeated, "What do you mean gone?"

Ezlo motioned his beak towards the cloud's ledge, "He fell off the cloud and couldn't save himself. . . . . ."

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Sorry I took so long. I got lazy and didn't had the chance to finish it. Meh, sorry if it sounded like I rushed the ending part. . . . .
