Chapter 4: Getting to know you

When Tarzan got up he made a great big sigh of relief and sat on the jungle floor trying to regain his strength. He looked up at the sky thinking to himself that

everything would get better, but it was all wishful and hopeful thinking. Finn walked over with ease and grabbed the key that was the size of a sword. "Tell me what

is this thing?" Finn asked in curiosity. Tarzan still trying to catch his breath spoke uneasy "It is called a keyblade. The only weapon I know that can kill those things

called heartless."

He then got up and started walking steadily to the group for he had gain his strength back. " A heartless is the thing I just destroyed. They are nasty little things

that like to eat the hearts of beings. They especially like the eat the hearts of keyblade wielders like me or Jane over here." Jane butted in and was interested in the

conversation and put her own knowledge in as well, "They also like to consume the pure hearts of worlds like this one.

When a world dies down, another one is reborn!" Jane said cheerfully and then continued on more interested than ever in the conversation. "I guess it is important

to know this since you are kinda stuck with us. Anyway they're two types emblem, the regular kind and pureblood, the really powerful one that are born from the

darkness in peoples hearts." The children were still trying to lean so they knew what they where up against. Maybeck scratching his head and closed his eyes and

nodded his head totally convinced that he had the whole situation down pack. "Right so these 'keyblades', what's the deal? Are there more like that or just regular

looking?" Philby wanted to know everything there was to this whole kingdom hearts business.

Tarzan rolled his eyes and sighed again to show that he wasn't in the mood for talking. He sat down once more thinking that this whole "conversation" was turning

into more of a meeting than ever so then he continued on. "…No…every keybalde isn't made for one ordinary person, it's for people who earn it. Older keyblade

wielders can perform a ceremony on a new person who will inherit the power and will to use a keyblade. Not many in the world though." Jane looked down in a

disappointment just now thinking of the risk as a wielder of a keyblade. She remembered what she was told by a boy a while ago. So she brought that important

detail to remind Tarzan. "But there is a down side to it…the heartless can use our keyblades to make us in constant risk of being attacked by more like them! So I

suggests we get outta here and take you to a safe place for now." The children did as she said and climbed on Tantor's back and head to their destination. Tantor

continued on for hours passing vines and eating the leaves on the way. Tarzan was far up in the trees swinging from vine to vine, sliding on huge roots and tree

limbs. He felt so alive when in the air and took a breath or two to take in the fresh oxygen he got to treasure ever since he was an infant.

Finn still didn't really understand it all for he wasn't big on leaning like Philby was or Willa. Looking up at the man swinging from a vine, he still wondered how he

killed those things when he dropped his keyblade. So he got enough nerve to ask Jane since the jungle boy wasn't around. "Uh Jane?" He started, Jane and the

others turned around and looked at him in curiosity.

"I was wondering…how did Tarzan defeat those things?" "What the heartless?" Jane said "Yeah I mean…you saw him get totally pined by them and a second later

he just popped up like a daisy and sliced them to pieces! How I ask how!" as he said this he was going out of his mind and started shaking Jane vigorously by the

shoulders. A little shaken up, she regained her vision and tried to answer his question.

"Well…he is a twisted, (also what we call people that are effected with the disease from the wasp), can absorb the energy of anything that is either a heartless or

filled with dark powers. Unfortunately those kind of people can attract heartless as well and besides that he was raised in the jungle by gorillas so he's bound to have

some kind of super human strength!" "Is there always a down side to something!" Charlene asked in frustration.

Jane looked at her with a sheepish grin on her face. She then turned away searching for the tree house and saw a leaf fall from the sky. She looked up and saw

Tarzan sliding on the tree limbs. "What is he dong?" Maybeck asked. "It's called 'Tree surfing'!" Jane said with a smile on her face. She explained to them that Tarzan

came up with the name calling it that to make it a game as well also for transportation for him to get around this world of his. They finally got to the tree house that

Jane was talking about and they climbed in. Immediately Tarzan was attacked by a female gorilla and put Tarzan in the worse predicament known to man…being put

in a headlock! Tarzan gagged and tried to get a hold of the female gorilla. She wouldn't budge an inch. She laughed in his face until he had the upper hand now and

hold her down and pinned her the first chance he had. "Okay, okay I give already ease up big guy!" She squealed. Tarzan gave her a grin and relinquished her from

his strong arms around her neck. She sat in the chair to much of her dismay she was being watched by children who looked at her in aw and astonishment. She

tilted her head, catching her breath and said: " Uh Tarzan who's the mini looking apes like you? You and Jane didn't do anything did you?"

At this Tarzan blushed and quickly moved farther away from Jane as possible. Jane blushed and turned her head towards Charlene. "N-n-no Turk! Stop it! Me and her

are only friends!" Tarzan sternly said and not noticing the rosy red cheeks he displayed obviously. Jane blushed sticking out her bottom lip at Tarzan and then gave

him a dirty look. Charlene saw this and knew the relationship right away as if it were displayed on a silver platter. "She likes him but he doesn't notice her that way!

O.M.G! Still none of my business I won't say it!"

Charlene spoke to herself quietly. "Look I was just saying you don't have to protect that man pride of yours!" Turk said with a mischievous smile knowing exactly

what she was doing. Tarzan got up and sighed greatly "Look all jokes aside we need a plan to get King and find anyone willing to help us." Finn popped his head up at

hearing the word "King" because he know he heard that word from Jiminy and the white rabbit. "Wait, 'King'? You wouldn't be talking about the same king…that

we're looking for are you?" "Well if by King you are meaning the King of Disney Castle and most of Kingdom Hearts then yes, I am talking about that same exact

King."

Tarzan was not the one to have a "small world" kind of thing and the fact that he wasn't his same self like before of course he's going to be somewhat rude. "*sigh*

all I wanted was a straight forward answer not all of that! However though, we are looking for the same person so I think we should stick together and-" "Yeah I'm

gonna stop you right there and say this…no." Finn was red in the face and wanted to tell Tarzan off for what he said but was too afraid that he would get destroyed.

So he tried to continue on maybe someone else would hear him out he thought. "No really Tarzan maybe we could find other people in the world with Keyblades and

then we could defeat evil along with the most powerful of us all this King person! Please understand we really don't have a choice!"

Tarzan shook his head in disagreement he couldn't think that the plan he gave to them would work. He thought to himself that how could they find all the keyblade

wielders " No Finn you don't understand we can't leave this world because we only exist in this world. We cant interact with other beings from other worlds who

knows what will happen besides its against the rules. Anyway it's not like the keybladers will just show up in our faces!" Tarzan felt something latch on his arm. He

then turned to see Jane pouting and giving him the puppy look. Tarzan hated that look it never did him or anyone any good any way still he wanted to hear her

out."Come on Tarzan we need all the help we can get, plus we never even tried to see the world." "No jane-" was all he could say before she stopped him and

continued to fuss at him for always being stuffy and not being fun. Really her problem was that she wanted to break free from this one world to see the other

worlds.

Tarzan sighed and wrinkled his face. He didn't want to admit it but Jane and Finn were right and he had a hard time agreeing because he turned red in the face and

started a low growl. Turk knew what was happening and leaned in like the rest to hear his answer. "Ok…I guess I see your point…but this isn't gonna be easy so as

long as I'm around, I want each and every one of you to listen to me understand?" Maybeck sneered at this for he wanted nothing more than to be in charge and

the fact that a jungle man was going to be the leader he'd rather have Turk or even Finn to be the leader than him at least he could get away with things but with

Tarzan he lost all his nerves to stand up to a man like Tarzan.

While Maybeck sulked in the corner, the others were so happy that they were forming a team especially Jane because she gets to meet new people. "Turk you take

care of the others while Me and Jane are gone because this trip will not be over for a long time and I can feel it in my blood." He then hugged his family and his

mother. He wanted to cry but no tears, he wanted to be strong. He then turned to his comrades with a scary sturn face and said: " Alright you all listen and you best

listen good I don't wanna hear any complaints about the rough jungle and to hear about how it's hard and we leave at dawn no if, ands or buts about it get it?" "Got

it." Tarzan was now in there face and had veins popping out on his neck, they could obviously see that if they said "no" to him they would get thrown off the side of

the cliff and that wasn't going to happen.

The sun started to set in the deep jungle of Tarzan's world all was becoming soft and smooth. Willa was looking out at the star embedded sky and wondered in her

own thoughts. She then heard something behind her and turned around quickly. "It's kinda nice out here don't you think?" She then lowered her guard and had

easy eyes and scooted over on the balcony to let Maybeck in "Oh Terry you scared me." "You? Scared of me? Never in a million years!" she laughed at this and he

moved closer so he could be with her. "Are you excited as much as I am? I can hardly wait!" Maybeck's smile faded hearing this "Uh…I guess that 'Taran' guy scares

me…only a little." She then laughed harder than she did before. The sight of seeing him intimidated by someone else, she thought it was cute. "You? Scared? You

know you should get to know him a little better because we need him as much as he needs us you know" she stretched and yawned, got up form her seat and

continued. "You should know, that I like it when you are off of your horse and is down right sensitive. By the way his name is 'Tarzan not Taran'! Good night Terry."

She left him with red cheeks on his face. So he looked up at the sky and said: "I will…just for you…Willa"
