Chapter 17: Last night was fun. Now the real thing is on

I was on my bed staring at the ceiling when I suddenly thought of myself in Kid form I turned into kid but I wasn't asleep, cool. I started practicing my powers by popping from attraction to attraction ending up in my room in the firehouse. I made orbs of energy in kid form and as my regular self. I practiced for hours until I was changing form Princess Kid to Katherine while floating in mid air above my bed, playing chess and balls of energy were soaring around my room. I could feel the power of the park flowing through my veins. I was one with the park, the belief, and the balance. I was one with the power, I was relaxed and calm because for once I had it under control. I took a deep breath as I focused on what was to come. I would rely on controlling my powers to defeat the Overtakers to save Disney and all the people who believed in it. I was controlling my powers perfectly in balance until someone said, "Wow, that's some act."

I landed on my bed as everything I was concentrating on fell to the floor.

"What do you want Finn?" I said as I tried to focus on what I was doing again.

"How were you doing that?"

"Doing what?"

"All that levitation, the orbs of light, and the quick change."

"Practicing."

"How's that going to help tonight?" I looked at him raising an eyebrow and shot a force of energy sending him flying into the door with a force that would just knock the air out of him.

"That is how it's going to help. I just need to practice focusing, that's the only hard part. Everything else, like the fighting, it's just a natural reflex. Sometimes that's how the crown works, you know on a reflex, but I cant rely on that's how it will work tonight. And tonight there can be no screw ups, everything has to work, or they'll win, which is not going to happen. That's also why I'm putting you in charge if something happens to me. You need to take out the Overtakers. If I use too much energy, I'll suck the life out of myself," I paused for a second thinking about if that happened. "Butt if that's what it comes to I'll do it to save Disney. You will have to finish them with Mickey. Use the sword of truth and go for Chernabog take him out with the sword and everything will fall down into its place. That's the last resort Finn, I know it's a lot but that's what I'm asking out of you. Mickey can handle Maeficent, so don't do anything stupid," I finished wile Finn came to sit with me on my bed while rubbing his head.

"That's a lot to ask Kat. And let's hope that's not what it comes to, but I'll finish the fight if your out. I'm only saying that cause I know you're going to finish the fight. Wayne picked us as DHIs cause Walt Disney World needed protectors, and that's what Walt wanted him to do. But you're different from all of us Kat, Walt didn't dream you up, you're not one of his dreams or creations in a sense. You're you, Walt picked you to protect Disney cause he knew you could do it. He made the crown to help you harness your power. I don't think it's the crown that has the power, it's you, you are Disney. You're the reason this place glows when your in it. You wont die tonight, cause if you did Disney would die with you. Don't say anything that I'm wrong, cause that is just my opinion. But me and the DHIs will have your back. You have my word on that. So good luck. By the way I think it's time to pick up the fan club."

"Thanks Finn. For everything. You might have been a jerk at first, but you turned out to be an ok guy," I said as I walked out of my door and to the trams.

I had told Jacky's mom last night who I really was and tonight she would probably treat me how a CEO was suppose to be treated. I waited at the trams as I saw the kids walk of followed by Jacky's mom. The kids saw me and ran over surrounding me with hugs and questions as I handed them their tickets. They already knew what they had to do tonight. Jacky's mom walked up to me and all the kids seemed to move away from us and sit by the big flower fountain .

"So you really are Kid," she whispered to me.

"In a way," I said.

"But how?"

"I'm Walt's great granddaughter."

"The stories?"

"If you believe in them then they are real, you just have to believe them to see them. Now I can't be here for much longer, I'm going to be in Fantasmic tonight and I need to start getting ready. Here's your tickets for tonight, tell the Cast Member who is working Fantasmic who you are and they will get you special setting for tonight's show. You guys have to be there cause I really need you. And if the kids ever think I need help, tell them to believe in me and the team, the DHIs too. That's how they can help. So have fun," I said to her and I gave the kids a big hug and walked away.

I practiced for tonight some more and then walked over to Tom Sawyers Island. And started to get ready for everything with my team, the DHIs, Wayne, and Mickey Mouse.

I looked at my watch, Mickey's was telling me it was ten minutes until show time. I took a deep breath. The sky was dark and the bright stars shined in the sky. I was underground now, waiting for the show to start. I heard my voice on the speakers, "Mommy, I want to be a hero and a princess in Disney."

"Maybe you will be in your imagination tonight," another voice said as the lights twinkled over the crowd. That was my cue to get ready to get on stage. Mickey was already on stage and a few seconds latter I was 'zapped' by Mickey on to the stage. Actually I had zapped my self on to the stage but no one would know that. I twirled around in my dress and crown and smiled with all my might. Mickey raised his hands like a conductor moving the water with his hands. I changed the color of the water. It wasn't an actor in a costume who was Mickey tonight, it was really Mickey. Mickey had so much belief in him that he was seen by everyone, but he decided to stay in the mirror. I could feel the the power radiating from the Overtakers so I made a force field around me and Mickey that was invisible.

"Don't waste your energy on me," Mickey said.

"Why not?"

"I'm protected by Walt. With out me none of this would exist."

"All started with a mouse," I said as Mickey made fireworks come out of his hands.

We left the stage to let the other acts come in. I heard the music for the Jungle Book scene with that crazy Orangutan, King Luis and Kaa to lead into the flower scene. Then I could here the music for the princesses, I knew Ariel was there with Eric. I then heard the music for Peter and his battle with Hook. I could feel Peter and Hook fighting and I felt Peter losing. I imagined myself on the boat. I imagined myself by his side and was there. I sword swung at my head almost cutting it off and I ducked to barely miss it. "Jeez, I come to help you and I almost get my head cut off!" I said to Peter.

"You stupid brat!" Hook yelled and boy was this the real Hook.

"Hello Codfish, there's no need for name calling," I said back to him as I met his blade. Peter was nowhere in sight as I fought Hook to the stern of the ship having him face the rail. He was standing on the railing of the boat now holing on to a rope for support. I flew up to him and pushed him over the side as he swung like Gorge of the Jungle across the stern of the boat. He held on to the rope for dear life as the crocodile snapped at him. I flew into the air and did one of Peter's crows. The crowd erupted into cheers for Peter, and as I looked down at my outfit I saw that I had become Peter. I flew back to the boat scared off the crocodile and sent Hook back to his ride trapped there for the rest of the night.

I was just about to go back stage when I saw some skeletal figures getting ready to attack Pinocchio. I popped up behind the giant puppet right in the middle of Chernabog's minions. I brought out my sword and started attacking the skeletons. I prayed that no one could see me as I fought off Pinocchio's attackers. I was in beast as I fought off the skeletons. It was hard the skeletons outnumbered me greatly and every time I killed one it seemed three took its place and not only that they kept reassembling themselves. I was mad, why couldn't these things just die! and to top it off I couldn't send them back to there attraction cause this was their attraction! "I had enough of these guys," I thought. Then I just threw to huge blasts of energy at them, blowing them all away and out of my way. Lucky for me I did that on the final beat of the music so it looked like a firework at the end.

I imagined myself backstage and I was there with Mickey. The wait was on now as the music continued on. The villains were on now doing their act until the last line. Instead of the usual 'we will destroy Micky's imagination' they said Kid.

I walked out onto the stage and the villains surrounded me and Mickey. They all joined in an evil laugh as I took out my dagger. "You foolish child, you cannot defeat all of us with just a knife," Maleficent said.

"I came here to defeat you're leader not you. And just for the record it's a dagger not a knife." Chernabog stepped forward, and pure evil radiated from his existence. I was scared, terrified, even mortified of what could happen now but I had to believe I could win, or I would definitely fail.

He looked at me with his red glowing eyes and sent a blast of pure evil at me. I put up a shield to deflect the blast. The blast hit my shield and ricochet off to hit Ursula. One down, a lot more evil to go. I was soon getting attacked with spells and being blasted with anything from fire to lightning. I was losing, I knew that but I kept on fighting. The Evil Queen made it rain down lightning as I dodged and blasted them away. Chernabog blasted his evil rays at me having army's of the dead attack me. Monstro splashed waves at me making it hard to concentrate on my attackers. While Maleficent blasted fire at me.

I rolled to ground as part of my dress caught on fire. "Please bring me something that will help me," I thought and suddenly I rolled on to a big brown book. I brought up a shield as another blast of something hit it taking out two of the Overtakers. I flipped though the book trying to find what was suppose to help me, scanning each page in a hurry. "Page please." I thought and the book opened up to a page that had a spell on it. I read it over in my mind trying to memorize it. I read it and I felt power surging through me like it had never done before. I started glowing my dress blowing in the wind as I walked to the rock where Mickey usually defeated Maleficent. I got out my sword and everything seemed to fade.

Through the blur of the world I heard a voice, a young and powerful voice saying the words that were in my head.

"Light and Dark battle on but balance shall remain!

With my crown and sword your powers shall be drained!

The Dark will be taken from you in this land

You shall be banished with your evil plans!

For I bring balance and that's how it will stay

For Good destroys Evil here every day.

This is a place of the child's imagination

And this is how your powers end!"

I could feel my body slipping into the darkness but I could see the light around me go from a dazzling gold, to an evil green, to a combination of the two of blue. And then there was darkness. I seemed to float in a vat of nothingness, my body like a worthless rag doll. But out of the darkness I saw someone coming towards me. He seemed to make the darkness divide as he walked on the light. He lent me a hand and pulled me up dragging me out of the dark. "Hi Walt," I said in no more of a whisper.

"You've saved Disneyland Kid, but you're not done yet. Your powers have grown but you must remember they're still out there and that and they can attack at any time. Your journey isn't over Kid. It's not time to join me yet. You have a show to finish and Disney still needs you, so go back to them," he said pulling me into a hug and releasing me as I nodded my head.

"Kid? Come on Kid, don't go now!" I heard a young voice say.

"Yeah Kat. Do you seriously want me to be the leader now?" I heard another voice say.

"Katherine come on we need you, all of Disney needs you," another voice said.

My eyes fluttered open to see my friends worried faces looking at me. I sat up on my hands for support. And I got up standing almost losing my balance. "Tell me what happened latter guys, I got a show to finish." I got up and went with Mickey shooting off fireworks as many character rode on the Mark Twain dancing to the final music. The show ended soon after as the guys helped me to a bench along the dark beaten dirt path.

"What happened in the end? I can only remember a voice and colors and dark, a lot of dark," I said as I pulled my feet up onto the bench and put my arms on my knees and my head on my arms.

"That was you Kid," Jack said.

"Very funny. Now what really happened?" I said as I heard a set of eight feet run along the path to me.

"Woah Kat that was awesome! How did you do that?" Jacky asked as her friends caught up to her.

"Do what Jacky?" I asked.

"That whole spell, changing aura color, defeating the OTs without even touching them and making your eyes go all blue?" she rambled.

"I want to know how she made the lightning come out of her dagger," Victor said.

"Magic," I whispered, "I did it all with the magic of Disney." The kids soon left wanting to see the fireworks. And Wayne walked up with a corn dog, "Thought you might need this," he said.

"Thanks Wayne. So I really did all that?"

"And more," a glowing Finn said.

"Really that was all me?" I said stunned.

"The crown overwhelmed you taking over you to let you do what you had to do," Wayne said.

"What?"

"You did it Kid you saved Disneyland and that's all that matters," Peter said. Everyone congratulated me for defeating the Overtakers and I soon feel asleep on Peter's shoulder, which just seemed like the closest pillow I could find.

I woke up in my bed and groaned. Everything and anything hurt, but my head killed. I rolled over to look at my clock, it said it was five in the morning of the third of November. I had slept of almost two days. I got out of my bed to find my self in some Mickey pj's. I down the hallway and slid down the fire poll.

I walked down Main Street U.S.A. and was then lifted off my feet and flew around the park to land in front of the partners statue. My team and the DHIs were all there. I turned to around to Peter, "Thanks for the flight."

"Look who decided to live guys," Indy said.

"Funny Indy," I said as Jack ran up with something in his hand.

"I brought the rum!" he called out.

"And why might you have rum?"

"I brought it to celebrate," he said in a do duh tone.

"Celebrate what? I was only asleep for a day, I'm not dead."

"Well you just defeated the Overtakers and lived," Mulan said. I smiled and soon the party went on until about seven when the park was getting ready to open.

I went back to the fire house and did my mourning routine and went down to City Hall. I helped a customer while I asked, "Has anyone seen Wayne in the last 2 days?" I got out a file and showed the information to the customer.

"No sign of Wayne since your Sleeping Beauty days."

"Thanks guys," I said as I walked out of the door and down Main street. I sat down in front of the candy store. I looked up to see a store window name, and then it hit me. Wayne was important to Walt, he would have a window.

I started at City Hall and worked my way around reading all the names of the businesses. I finally reached one called Wood and Wonder, President Wayne Kresky. Bingo. I went up to the porch where a rocking chair sat and turned the door knob, but the door was locked. I felt around the handle and key hole hoping there would be a trick switch or something. I grumbled having only found a few squiggly lines that after a few minutes of running my fingers over them turned out to be words. I finally figured out that they said the key of balance is the key to any door that stands in your way. Great a riddle only Wayne would have a riddle to get into here. Ok, the word key is mentioned twice so it involves a key and it has to be obvious, and balance. Balance, the crown and I thought of the crown as a key. It morphed into one in my hand. I put the key into the keyhole and the door clicked open. I walked in and closed the door behind me, walked up a staircase to find a single room with a big chair over looking Main Street.

"Nineteen minutes fifty five seconds," Wayne said from the big chair.

"What?"

"That's how long it took you to find me."

"You timed me?"

"Yes."

"You sure it wasn't twenty eight seconds?"

"You defeated the Overtakers Katherine."

"Change the subject, but yes. For now any ways."

"For now?"

"The crown was meant to create and take power, not destroy. The Overtakers don't have power here for now but who knows what can happen in the future. If you think about it Wayne the Overtakers can never be stopped because the battle of good and evil never end."

"Calm down Katherine."

"What?" I said blinking my eyes.

"Your eyes are turning all blue.'

"Like they did the other night?"

"Yes. You're channeling the power of the crown, it effects your mind. You focus on the power of Disney too much. Your speaking with your voice but the crown's giving you the words. You have unlocked the crowns power and you need to practice controlling it on your own in the fire house. If you're to close to anyone you can channel their Disney or them into power and possibly take the energy out of them."

"Great so I'm on Fire House isolation/"

"First, go see Walt."

"So he can help me."

"Yes, and ask him about the future."

"Righty O," I said as I stepped into a portal to the past.

I was standing im my room of the Fire House. I opened the door and walked down the hallway hearing voices.

"Walt this is horrible! The cement isn't dry and not even half the people who were invited came!"

"I know Roy."

"You shouldn't worry so much Roy," I said making myself known. "In about a month the millionth customer will walk through the gates."

"Who are you and how did you get up here?" Roy asked.

"Kid's the name."

"Your real name," he said.

"Katherine, and that's all your getting. Did I come to o early in time is the real question."

"No, you're wearing the crown I see," Walt said.

"Yeah, speaking of, the crown has done its job for Disneyland, but I need to learn how to control it."

"Just don't focus on all the energy at once and it my help if you put some of the power into an object."

"Thanks Walt. And Roy every cloud has a silver lining, so even if his dreams sound crazy sometimes it's the crazy things that are the most amazing things."

I stepped through the portal and was back in my room in my own time. I walked out of my room and into the office and leaned on the big oak desk. I looked around the room finding many objects I could store my energy in but my eyes had found a single object that held their interest. It was a pen, a very old black fountain pen that had nothing special about it. I picked it up and read a note that was under it, His First Pen. I looked at it curiously and then decided this was where my energy would go. I focused on the pen and transferred some of my energy into it. I didn't feel so almighty but I still had power.

I walked to the window looking over my land. I was its protector and ruler. It was safe for mow but I knew that it wouldn't be safe forever. But I knew right then and there why Walt had chosen me for this. It was because I could make Disney thrive, I could make it better then it had been in years, yet keep the characters happy and remember they were as real as I was. That's why he chose me, Katherine Isabelle Disney to be the keeper of the Crown of Balance. I know the Overtakers are still out there waiting to strike again, and I had a feeling when they came back they were not going to go easy. I got lucky this time but who knows what can lie in the future for me.

The End...... until balance shifts
