Chapter 15: Tick Tock Just like a Croc

It was a chilly day as I pulled my jacket closer around my body. Three days had passed and there's only one more day until Halloween and one day for the attack. I ate my corndog while I let this sink in. Yesterday the DHIs arrived here in Disneyland and I told them my plan. It ended up in a lot of saying you're crazy, are you really going to sacrifice yourself, and what the heck are you thinking. I know I can do this though. I've been practicing I can now control my power and have managed to keep things afloat here. My team knows the plan and hopefully everything will be alright at least for now. They all know I am willing to give my life it means it will stop the Overtakers but that is just it. You see this wonderful plan of mine involved me risking my life. I was going to stop them in Fantasmic, to make the show look like it was some rare special. This was going to be harder than anyone thought because there was no guarantee that I would come out alive. I had to ld the Fantasmic workers the additions to the show and Ariel would hopefully be ok while she watched the waters where I would be fighting.

I finished my corndog and threw the trash away as I walked towards the trams. I was meeting Jacky and her friends for a final check on there costumes and get them up to speed on my adventures. Jacky's friends were all nine, the same age she was going to be on January 2. I arrived at the trams and looked at my Mickey watch to see that it was five to four our designated time. I closed my eyes and focused on the energy of Disney when suddenly I got the wind knocked out of me by a hug. "Jacky can't breathe," I struggled to say.

"Sorry Kat, I just can't wait to see my costume," she squealed in delight.

"Jeez Jacky, let the girl breathe," a dirty blonde said.

"She'll be fine, Al-I. Oh, Kat let me introduce me amigos," Jacky said as she started pointing to each of the six kids who surrounded us. "These guys are Phil, Andy, Sam, Victor, his twin Victoria and Allison." Phil had black hair and honey colored eyes that looked like he was about to something crazy at any given moment. Andy was tall and slender with light brown hair and blue green eyes that watched every move you made. Sam was dark skinned with black curly hair and a face that always seemed to be smiling. While Victor had red brown hair along with brown green eyes and Victoria had red hair with sparkling blue eyes, each of the twins could of pulled of Peter or Ariel look alikes but not quite. While Allison had wavy dirty blonde hair that most girls would envy her eyes were green but had specks of gold that caught the light when she smiled, you could tell she was smart but also funny. All the kids could probably pull a character costume together with there looks I wouldn't be surprised if they would be working for me as characters in a few years.

"It's nice meeting you all and you guys did check with your parents to make sure this is ok, right?" I was answered with a seven yeses. "Great to the costume warehouse!"

I lead the children through backstage Disneyland to the building that held all the costume that the cast members wear. For each of the kids I had gotten them there own personal remake of the costume that their character wears in the park, except for Mulan of course she was wearing armor. I took them to the back where my office was and pulled a rack with all the costumes toward us. "Phil here's your Jack costume, Andy here's your Indy costume, Sam here's the Simba one, Victor here's Peter's gear, Victoria here's Ariel's costume, Allison here's the Mulan costume, and Jacky this is yours." I said handing out the costumes.

"How did you know these were what we wanted?" Allison asked.

"Jacky probably gave her all the info," Andy said.

"No, I just gave her your sizes and that's it."

"I can just tell by your looks. Also I can probably tell you your favorite ride and Disneyland food. I'm kinda a pro at that," I answered.

" So who are you going as? Your obviously not going to be yourself, are you?"

"Umm. I really don't know who I'm going as but yeah."

"You don't have a costume!?" Jacky asked.

"Uhh. No."

"That's it into the huge costume room after I try on all my outfit." I got the kids into there outfits and got them their wigs and props. Everyone was looking perfect and soon I was being shoved into the costume warehouse. The costumes surrounded us as I was soon being shoved down the princess costume aisle. I was looking at the dresses while all the girls were goofing off with the costumes. Suddenly a little gold light flew past me and down the aisle I followed the light until it landed on a blue dress. I looked to Tinker Bell and she was gone. I pulled out the dress and saw that it was Aurora's blue dress, not her pink one. I held it up to me and it looked to be about my size. "Hey guys what do you think!" I called out. I heard many responses of cute and great choice. After that I got the kids out of their outfits and up to my room by the time they changed it was time to go. So I escorted them back to the tram and got them back to there parents. The day was done and I walked back to the fire house and went to bed.

I was in front of the statue looking more like pleading for help. A hand was placed on my shoulder as I thought my plan to each character. They looked at me sadly. "I don't know if I'll be here the day after tomorrow so I want to spend some time alone with you so in case I'm not here on November 2nd."

"No, you shouldn't have to sacrifice yourself Kat!" Peter said.

"But I do Peter, it's my destiny to stop the Overtakers and it's me who has to do it. It's why I have the crown."

Everyone knew what was bound to happen. Then Jack ran over to me and grabbed my wrist, "I get her first!" he yelled. Indy called 2nd, Mulan 3rd, Simba 4th , Ariel 5th , and Peter called last. I waved to the others as I went with Jack to New Orleans Square where he lead me to the Back Pearl.

"Come on Kid lets see if you can sail." I followed Jack up the side of the boat, over the railing, and up into the rigging to let the sails loose. The wind caught the sails and made them puff out and started moving us down the rive. I climbed down the rigging while checking everything was in order. As soon as I landed on the deck Jack turned and try to run me through with his sword. I pulled out my sword and blacked his attack. We fought until I had Jack trapped in a corner ready to finish him off then Jack cut a rope held on to it and flew to the top of a sail and a weight flew into the water.

"How did you do that?" I asked.

"Don't know, I just drank a bottle of rum though."

"You crazy pirate!"

"No, you crazy pirate!" he yelled back.

"I'm not a pirate."

"Are you now?"

"Who know," I said.

"Well kid, don't do anything that you'll regret, just go out there and do the unexpected," Jack said while returning to the deck.

"Thanks Jack. I think that is the best advice you've ever given me." I saluted him and jumped of the ship and flew back to land.

I flew towards the Temple of the Forbidden Eye and I saw Indy standing there in the shadows. "Hey stranger."

"Hello Kid."

"So, Jack took me sailing watcha gonna do with me?"

"Dodge," he said as he cracked his whip at me. I ducked and then made the whip freeze in the spot where my head had been.

"Talk about a close call," I said looking at the whip that I had frozen in place as Indy tried to pull it back. I let it unfreeze and Indy tumbled to the ground. "So you wnat to teach me how to use the whip?"

"I was thinking more along the lines of a history lesson."

"Only you could be so cool and kill it with a history lesson."

"Part time teacher."

"Full time adventurer in this place."

"Funny."

"Come on Indy, I need all the weapon training I can get. Who knows what the Overtakers are going to do to me. And this may be the last chance you get to teach me how to use it."

"It's a whip Katherine, there isn't much to learn."

"Are you kidding me? You can do millions of things with that whip. I know I can only learn a fraction of them, and I know you want to teach me. Please Indy," I said while giving him a puppy dog pout.

"Fine," he grumbled.

He showed me the basics first. I was taught the right way to hold the whip and hwo to crack it. As soon as I mastered that he taught me how to retrieve objects, use it to swing over a gap to wide to jump, and to tie up a person with it. It was awesome but of corse Professor Jones came and ruined it al by telling me the history of the Overtakers. It's an interesting story I'll give yu that but it made me think of what I had to face in two days. It made me realize that my chances of getting out of this battle alive were slim but I still had to do go through with it. I waved good bye and walked to Fantasyland. As I neared the Princess Fantasy Fair I saw Mulan. As I got closer I saw her stretching out getting ready for something. "Hi Mulan," I said as I approached her.

"Hello Kid,"

"What are we going to do?"

"I'm going to teach you some karate."

"Sweet so what are we-," I started and she lunged at me doing a high kick. I blocked it with my arm and tried to knock her feet out from under her. She saw my attack and countered my punching me in the gut. I moved out of the way waiting for her next move. We circled each other for a time each trying to get the upper hand. Finnaly I aimed high faking her for a punch but went low with my other hand and then did a round house kick knocking her to the ground. I smileed still in my fitting stance. She got up and dusted herself off.

"You are a skilled fighter Kid, you will do well tomorrow. My only advice for you is to be true to your heart. Your head may have the rational thing to do, but your heart usually leads you down the path that will keep you strong," she said as Mushu climbed up her shoulder.

"Kid, if you ever need me to burn someone to a crisp for you. You know how to get me," Mushu said.

"I'll remember that," I said to both of them. "You are both helpful in my mission to stop the Overtakers, and for that I thank you. Mulan, you're the one and only girl I would pick to have besides me in a battle against the strongest men, and Mushu don't do anything stupid that will make Mulan mad at you," I said as I then hugged Mulan and set out on my way to find Simba.

I walked onto Small World to see every child playing with each other. I sailed on waiting for Africa. When I finally arrived I saw Simba waiting for me.

"Hey Simba, so what are we going to do."

"Hacunamatata is what we are going to do."

"So we are going to have a relaxing time. I fine with that," I said as Simba lead me into a beautiful valley with a waterfall. We lounged on the banks while Simba ate a few grubs. I meet Timon and Pumba and was soon in a Hacunnamatata state. I was like this for a while when I said my good bye to Simba giving him a big hug and went down the canal.

I got off at Ariel and dove into her part of the ride. I was soon was swimming with Ariel and a couple of her sisters. Ariel lead me behind her big seashell and we swam into the waters of Atlantica. I was surrounded by hundreds of mermaids as Ariel lead me to her grotto. I decided to blend in by giving myself a tail and swimming with her. As soon as the rock closed behind us to her grotto. She turned to me and said, "Kid, are you sure you're going to be ok?"

"I don't really know but I would like you to be in the waters looking out for me if you don't mind."

"I'll be there. And if I need backup Eric's in the show so I'll have him."

"Ariel, if I make it out of this alive I'm going to make sure that you get legs so you can be with Eric."

"Really Kid, you would do that for me?"

"Yeah Ariel, you're like my big sister in a way, and I'm going to get you legs."

"Thank you Kid," she said while hugging me. We talked for a while getting me some quality girl time, something I hadn't had in a long time. I soon left the grotto and swam towards the sky and got out of the Storybook Canal. I thought of myself dry and then started walking towards Peter Pan's Flight.

As soon as I got there Peter started pulling me toward the ride not even letting me get in a hello. With Tinker Bell at our side Peter took me to Neverland. He showed me Pirates Cove, Mermaid Lagoon, the Indian camp, Crocodile creek, Skullrock where the pirates treasure was hidden, and the lost boys hide out. I played with the lost boys and Peter until I completely forgot that I had to defeat the Overtakers soon. After a while Peter grabbed my wrist and flew me back to Disneyland. We flew over the park and then we landed by the statue. Tink flew into the sky setting off a display of beautiful fireworks. I smiled at Peter, he had given me a final happy moment before I had to face evil.

"So are you having fun?"

"I am Peter, thanks to you."

"It was Tink's idea to do the fireworks. She like you. Which is weird cause she hated every other girl to Neverland."

"Maybe it's because of who I am. And that I'm not trying to kiss you," I said laughing.

"I haven't heard you laugh in a while."

"Obviously, it's hard having to think of what will come in a few days."

"You've been practicing with the crown haven't you."

"I have to. Or else I'll be defenseless. There not going to come at me with a sword they are going to use the dark part of the imagination."

"You scared cause I have your back."

"And I have yours, friends till the end?" I asked.

"There is no end, just another adventure."

"Well tomorrow's another adventure," I said while getting up. "See you tomorrow Peter. We have to keep all the people safe here."

"Yeah see you tomorrow," he said giving me a hug and then flying back to his ride.

A new day was coming and I was prepared for whatever comes at me. At least I hope I am. Tomorrow was a new day and a step closer to my curtain call of destiny. It was my time to fight and I was not going to stand down. I was going to do the unexpected while staying true to my heart and my friends. It was my time to shine.
