A.N Thanks for all the reviews. So please review I 'think of the happiest thoughts' when get them. So on with the story.
Chapter 3:The Crown of Balance
I got up almost automatically and ran into the bathroom getting ready in a rush while thinking about what the heck had happened last night. I actually talked to a guy in my dreams last night, ok I can see that; I got the pen on my hand to prove it. I have to find this crown of balance thing or the evil Disney villains will come and destroy Disneyland, not really sure of but I have a hunch that I really have to find this crown. And last but not least I have to save Disneyland from the evil villains and I have no clue what I'm doing. The odds are stacked against me but lets think over that clue. I thought as I was finishing getting dressed and moving on to my hair. Ok so the original park must mean Disneyland, and it's not in frontier or fantasy so that must mean its not in Frontierland or Fantasyland, but the rest of the stuff just deals with the emotions of the holder of the crown. This was going to take a while.
I grabbed my backpack, my lunch, a few bucks, and a granola bar and some water, and walked towards the bus stop and waited fo my bus. I ate the granola bar and finished up my small breakfast as I got on it. I must be balanced to find this thing so lets just be my self and I'll find it. I arrived at the park an hour and a half before it opened. It would give me just enough time to give the park a quick look trough.
I smelled the succulent smell coming from the candy shop as I walked past it and on to Adventureland, I went straight into the Tiki Room knowing that if Walt had hidden the crown it would have to be somewhere where he has been. All the birds stared at me, I hadn't announced show time yet. You see most people think that the birds are really automated by a button but really it's by voice. I looked around the whole room seeing nothing of interest, I turned to Jose and said, " Hola me amigo, do you know were the crown of balance is?" Not expecting an answer I turned toward the exit and started to leave. "Well it's defiantly not in here senorita, but to find the crown of balance your on the right trail. And remember senorita it all started with a mouse, but hurry they are looking for you." said Jose with a Spanish accent. "Who's they?" I asked but the parrot said no more.
I walked out of the Tiki Room thinking about what Jose had said they were looking for me, and this feeling told me that 'they' were the overtakers. Then it hit me, I knew where the crown was! I always knew where it was. Balance can only remain in the heart, in other worlds the heart of the original kingdom, where it all started with a mouse, it's hidden in the statue of Walt and Mickey how could I be so dumb and not figure that one out? I ran to the statue with a good twenty minutes left before the flood of people. When I got there I just looked at the statue standing on the little area where you could sit in front of the statue. I ran around in circles looking for a door or something anything but found nothing. For a desperate last attempt in trying to get the crown I stared thinking it might be voice activated. I yelled at the statue " It all started with a mouse."
"How about please give me the crown of balance," I thought about it and then started just rattling of random Disney things, "Mortimer." "Turkey in the straw." "1955." "1928." "Disneyland." "Snow White." "Open says me, well at least that worked in Aladdin," yelling all the other but I said the end in was a sarcastic response. I sat down on the cement looking out Walt and Mickey, then I started humming the Mickey Mouse Club theme song. Then of all things I just started singing like I was in a trance, " Who's the leader of the club who's made for you and me? M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E! Hey there, hi there, ho there, you as welcome as can be, M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E. Mickey Mouse, Mickey Mouse, for ever land hold our banner high. Come along and sing this song to join our jamboree, M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E."
Suddenly the statue started glowing and in Walt's hand there was a golden crown sparkling with three jewels in the form of the Disney icon Mickey Mouse. I was speechless but I was able to mutter, "Yay Mickey, Yay Mickey Mouse Club." and the crown floated into my hands. I figured out the riddle and only I could see the crown that was now in my hands as I placed it n my head.
In that one action I suddenly wasn't standing in front of a statue of Walt and Mickey now I was somewhere I had never been but always dreamed of being in, Walt's office. I turned around and suddenly there he was, Walt Disney himself in the flesh. I was astonished the crown was a portal to Walt himself.
"Oh my gosh," I stammered, "you're Walt Disney."
"Well, I sure hope I am or I've been calling myself the wrong name for a very long time," he stated. "Well, I'm glad you found the crown before the overtakers did, or else that would have been really bad. By the way what was the big clue that tipped you off?"
"Well I didn't see the obvious until I asked Jose where it was. I never knew he could talk back."
"Ah, Jose. You know that characters can only talk to people who are true Disney's?" he asked.
"No I didn't know that?" T hen he gave me a look like I was missing something very obvious. "What do you mean by a true Disney?"
"I mean only a relative of mine that truly has great faith in Disney and believes in Disney so much that the characters start coming alive."
"Woah, hold on back up. Are you trying to tell me that I'm related to you?" I said flabbergasted.
"Yes."
'Just by chance are you related to Wayne, because both of you have a tendency to give me big news like it was no big deal at all?"
"No but I have a feeling that Wayne was the one who sent you to find the crown."
"Yeah and then he told me about the evil villains that are trying to take over Disney just like you told me that I was your retaliative."
"Well I intrusted him with dealing with my Disney issues when I move on the the big castle in the sky."
"Oh well, in that case I have a feeling that there's more to this crown and family reunion then your showing."
"Smart, but can't see the obvious until it's told to your face. That's why the riddle was so challenging for you, exactly why I made it that way. You are going to be great at being the next head of Disney."
"What? I can't be the head of Disney until I'm sixteen, I think, but what about this crown what does it do?"
"Well it shows you what the the balance is in Disneyland or where ever you are that has to deal with Disney, but it has great power that only you can handle and find out so good luck with that and have fun handling the future of Disney, Katherine Isabelle Disney. You have good on your side kid, and well you also have my pal Mickey." he said as I started to be whipped back to the present.
"What? Isabelle? The future of Disney!? What do you mean by I have good on my side?!" I yelled now swirling into the present.
***
I stood of to the side of the statue and looked at my clock seeing that it was only eight o' one A.M. I thought about the crown on my head and thought it as a little to flashy and then suddenly it was a necklace with smaller stones. That was very convenient, I guess that the crowns power is linked to my thoughts. I started walking towards the castle hoping that maybe this thing had some good to it.
I looked over to the castle and standing in front was Aurora dressed in her pink dress. I blinked twice and she was still there and now prince Philip was joining here as they walked. I walked into Adventureland walking past the Indian Jones ride only to see Indy himself nod a hello at me. I was going crazy, I was seeing characters. I guess that this was the part that I was suppose to believe that I was the true relative of Disney and not just seeing things. But then again seeing characters could have it's advantages. I don't have a clue what the advantages it gives me but I hope can find out.
I did my rounds like usual and went home falling into the realm of dreams but I never expected to find what I did there.
