Disclaimer: I own Katherine(aka Kat & KID) and my few creations! Pearson and Disney own the rest. Or at least that's what they want me to think......

A.N. Ok where to start. Queen Ane, the reason Indy is a character is because at night everything IN Disneyland comes to life, characters and ride attractions (not all the stuffed animals in the gift shop), thus he is part of the team. Also I am glad some people have read Kingdom Keepers 1&2 great books got to love em. Also sorry I haven't updated, I had writers block and nothing seemed to fit which is why this chapter may seem a little rough. I found out that I do thrive on your suggestions and its what gives me the sudden idea of 'how shall I make this fit in to the story?' and then like magic I have a chapter. Now some of the stuff in this story are not true in reality and can only be true in Barbiegirl22's mind. So enjoy I hope you guys and gals love it! You all get gold stars for waiting for this chapter!

Chapter 8: Explanations

Those two weeks went by like there was no tomorrow. Last week Wayne started the adoption process and I was to be his new child next week after the court hearing which was today. It turns out that this had been planed for months and I just needed to be found. Many blood test were taken and they all pointed to one conclusion, I was the real deal. The pressure was on and soon I would have to face a judge to honor Walt's will. My bags were packed at the side of my bed the little hovel that I called my room would no longer be mine. I was called down stairs and I got up and left. I was wearing the nicest outfit I had which was a white blouse and a black skirt, fresh of the blue light special at K-mart. The stress was getting to me, what if this we didn't win the case, would I fail Walt and if I did win how would this change my life?

I walked out the door and got into the waiting sleek black car. Wayne was driving as I sat shoot gun. The high way sped by as we drove past the various buildings soon getting to the court house without a word. Wayne parked in the back and then we walked into the court house without a word.

The place was empty but we still had to wait for out appointment which was suppose to be at ten o'clock. We sat in the hard wood chairs in the hall way and then I finally said to Wayne, "What am I suppose to talk about in the court room?"

"Just say what you think needs to be said without lying, the truth is always the answer. But don't tell them about the overtakers, they might just think you are crazy."

"They probably think that we are already crazy for trying to make me head of Disney, seriously Wayne I'm only 14. What about child labor laws and do we even have a lawyer?" Wayne looked at me like I was missing something. He then pulled out a scrapbook that I hadn't seen in about a year and flipped through the pages until he got to my Harvard Law degree which was next to my Hastings degree of law. Well I did pass the BAR with some pretty high scores. I was my own lawyer and now I really have to keep my cool. I took a deep breath and exhaled, this was going to be a long day.

They walked in, dressed in the fancy suits and ties. The men all seemed to be older except one who looked to be in his late twenties to early thirties. He glared at me and Wayne as he walked pass us with his group of men followed him like sheep. Even though he looked to be the youngest of the group, he was definitely the man in charge. Was that the head of Disney now the person I would have to fight to get the head of Disney? I always dreamed of meeting the man who made the magic behind Disney happen but he didn't look like that kind of man he just looked like someone who would yell at a kid for getting close to the candy store window and drooling at the treats made inside. I was scared but also reassured, if this was the man who I was fighting against then I could beat him in the way that Disney ought to be way, unless the judge saw fit that someone like him was to be running a place where everyone should be a child if just for a few hours.

"So that's him I'm guessing."

"Yes that is the current owner of Disney and he himself is a Disney but has no faith in it at all," Wayne said giving him a glare. There was something that Wayne wasn't telling me about him but I guess I was going to have to fight my own relative to win the crown, to bad I'm already wearing it.

My mind drifted back to Disneyland at dark when I could be myself with the characters that were my friends. It had been to long weeks and there had been no sing of overtaker activity. All the inhabitants of Disneyland thought I had finally concord them but I still had the feeling that they were lurking and plotting their revenge, and to top it off my crown was still had the green gem glowing to remind me what was happening.

Wayne shook me and I suddenly was snapped back into reality. We walked down the hallway and into the courtroom. We then walked to the front of the room and took our seats and were then promptly sworn in. The tie guys were then to do the same. We rose as the judge walked in. She was a little bet heavy and as soon a she called the court to order I could tell that she was loud. The court case was declared and all of the tie guys smirked as they saw this to be an easy win. I sat in my seat scared of what was going to happen.

"Now we all know why we are here so let's get to the point," the judge stated. "Sir, what prof do you have that this child is suppose to be the legal person to be the head of the Disney Company?"

"Well first we have Walt's will, he said that he always wanted his company to have a true Disney at the head of the company."

"We already know this Sir what proof do you have that this child is the one that Walt wanted and is she even a relative of his?"

"We have the blood test that say she has ties to Disney himself," he said as he got the papers out of his manila file. She looked them over and then declared, "She is in fact a Disney."

The men in the ties murmured.

"So what if she is a Disney. The fact is that she is to late, the company has already got a person to lead it," said one of the men.

"The reason she should be in charge of Disney is because it's what Walt wanted. See it's right here in his will," Wayne said while holding up a piece of paper and the started reading off of it. "I will hand a necklace down through the generations and whoever has the necklace from the previous owner shall be the one who controls Disney." I silently giggled at the meaning of that because with this necklace I almost did control Disney, I just had to figure out how to use the thing. I know it was originally a crown but I wear it as a necklace while I'm in the park and everyone just thinks it's a plain old thing from the gift shop. My powers with the crown were coming along but it was when I needed the power the most was when it worked and I could never figure out how to do it again. But fate just works like that doesn't it.

My mind was in another place and then I heard my name called and I walked up to the podium. "Katherine, where did you get that necklace?" one of the men asked me.

"Well it's weird how I got this. When I opened my locker for work to get my evaluation sheets and stuff it was sitting there in a packaging for me, it said it was a gift from one of my relatives so I started to wear it. I really like the Micky design don't you?" I said holding the necklace in my hand while it was still around my neck.

"Katherine," the judge said, "what do you mean by work. By the looks of it you are about twelve."

"Actually I'm fourteen and I work for Disney. They employed me six months ago to evaluate the employees in the park."

"And why did they do that? It's against child labor laws," she said.

"Well, they figured that sense I graduated from about 30 universities and that most adults ignore children when they're asking a question that they needed to see that everyone who works there should treat all the customers equally and they chose me as the child to evaluate the employees. Plus I kinda found a loophole to that whole child labor law, my care taker at the orphanage wanted me out of the house and I put all the money in the bank so in case I don't get adopted by the time I'm eighteen I will be able to live on my own without being a homeless person," I said to the court with a shy smile on my face. The jury, judge, and all the tie guys stared at me like I was the next Einstein. Too bad I wasn't, yes there actuallyy is a kid out there that is smarter than me, and boy is he a jerk!

"Katherine what would you do if you were head of Disney?" said one of the attorneys who was questioning me now.

"Oh that's easy, I would try to improve the parks to fulfill Walt's dream of the parks never being complete, I would try to make more of the tv shows not into making kids want to be older but inspire them to cherish their childhood, keep having Disney movies and maybe having more kindness in the parks like having that dream sweet contest again like in the year of a million dreams. Every day should be like that at Disney, you come there to see your dreams, to celebrate all things, and to be a child at heart and over the last few years I've seen that almost fade away from the parks," I said like I was giving the Miss America speech.

The trial continued on like this for some time when finally the judge said, "How do you know that she is a Disney, we all know about the blood tests but who is her parent that is a relative of Disney?"

"Her mother is the relative of Disney and she gave two videos to her new caretakers to show Katherine when the right time came one is for her to see and if and when she wanted to be head of Disney she made this tape for the court to see and she doesn't want Katherine to watch it, it's stated in her will and I think we all should respect her decision. They payed the first one which was for my eyes. My mother appeared on the screen telling me who she was and how she was probably going to die a few days after my birth due to her being to old to have a child or at least that's what the doctors told her. She continued on to say who I was and how I was to inherit this necklace that made me who I was now and that I didn't have to be a Disney if I didn't want to be. I was starting to cry, I had never seen my mother before, heard her voice, but she never told me her name or my fathers. The video soon ended and I was escorted out of the room so the others could see the other tape.

I sat down outside the court room and put my head in my hands and cried. I know it seemed like something a little kid would do but that's how I felt I just had seen my mom for the first time and she had blonde hair just like mine. I was soon called in and they did a court ruling that I was to be head of Disney in two weeks. I was amazed, we had won there must have been something on that tape that must have had a big effect on them. We walked out of the court and got into the car, I check the time to see that it was three o'clock. "Wayne can you drop me off at Disneyland?" I asked.

"Sure," he said.

We got to the park and he dropped me off and I walked into the park. I got in and went to go get in line for Space Mountain the line was long but it was worth it. After the triller of that I went and got a corndog and took my seat for Fantastic. It got dark and soon the show started, when the dragon breathed fire I swear she was staring straight at me. I walked out of the park and got on bus and went to the orphanage to get some sleep. Once my head hit the pillow I slowly went into my world of Disney.

I was in my dress with my crown on my head. I turned around and there my team was standing in front of the statue. Peter had one of our newest additions to the team on his shoulder.

"Well hello there Tinkerbell," I said. The ring of bell returned my hello that I understood perfectly. Mulan and Mushu, Simba, Jack and Indy were all lined up waiting for my orders. I smiled as the stress of today vanished and I was now who I truly was meant to be. "Come on guys, lets get moving!" I said as we headed to Fantasyland. "Ok guys, the most recent attacks have been from the Pirates. My sources tell me that Davy Jones and Captain Hook have joined forces to attack the defenseless characters so I think that we should start in Fantasyland. You know how Hook is and we know that is where the most Disney characters are located so it could be an easy attack so same as always grab um and bag um," I said while we walked over the drawbridge. The team got their swords, whips, dust, and claws out prepared for anything. It didn't take us long to find our pirates. They were surrounding the many Dumbos and were threatening to kill them all if they didn't fork over his magic feather. "So Hook and Jones, I thought you would know by now that you don't need the feather to fly. All it takes is a bit of pixie dust," I said as Peter and Tink laughed.

"You foolish child, we don't want to fly we just need the stupid feather for our master," Hook said.

"Your master? Now why would someone just want a little black feather, when they are so evil?" I asked sarcastically.

"Shut up Hook!" Jones said, "Why hello there Jack, trying to redeem yourself?"

"No I'm just here because I get to see her make people vanish," Jack said.

"Well, our men might just do that to you," Hook said as suddenly pirates came up but in the cars from the Astro Blasters ride. The laser beams shot by almost hitting us. Jack held up his sword trying to deflect one only to have his sword cut in half. I closed my eyes and calmed down to a state where I could think, I thought of the cars gone back to their ride, the pirates gone to their ride locked up in the jail cell until the park opened tomorrow, and Hook and Jones tied up in chains not able to move a muscle. I opened my eyes and every thing was the way I imagined, I love this crown.

We walked up to the pirates and I smirked at them. "So I already made them vanish, or do you have a second wave coming?" I asked. They stared at me stunned. "Peter, Jack, I'll give you a few seconds of what ever you want to say to the codfish and the squid before we're on our way." They did their remarks of the usual and then I poofed them back to their rides.

"Hey guys do you think you can finish up the rounds without me, I'm really tired and I have a big day tomorrow seeing that in two weeks this will all be mine," I said.

"Your kidding me right?" asked Indy.

"Nope, got it all settled in court today and I'm moving in with Wayne tomorrow."

"You mean the man with the strange white hair?" asked Mulan.

"Yes him."

"I think we can handle the rest of the rounds you go get some sleep," said Simba.

"Thanks guys," I said as I imagined my self asleep in my bed. And for once in two weeks I got a good nights sleep.
