Yume achually felt honored, to be well-known. Of it being like she was popular, it's so nice yet a little bizzare in a way. Cloud was in face to face with Yume looking at her appearance. They weren't kidding when they say she had Sora's eyes, she really dose looked like him as a fourteen year old to be exact. "So she's the new Keyblade bearier." Cloud though to himself.

"Really?" Yume asked.

"Yeah, your the new keyblade weilder." Cloud said. "Wow this guy really dose know me." Yume though to herself.

"What are you doing here anyway." Yume asked.

"I'm investigating a threat that's been here." Cloud said. A threat? Did he mean the heartless?

"What do you mean?" Yume asked.

"This place has some surrounding of darkness." Cloud said. This didn't sound good, if the darkness was intertwining with every light in the world. It might overdo it and make them into terrible destruction that will disappear forever. Yume didn't want that to happen, she had to do something.

"Then how can we stop it." Yume asked.

"There an evil man who is covered in flames. He's planning to destroy this place. You need to watch out for him, he will we be here." Cloud said.

"Is he near by?" Yume asked.

"That depends." Cloud said.

They herd a loud boom coming from outside in the courtyard, It sounded like bad news. Yume and Cloud ducked down when another boom came out.

"What was that?!" Yume said. Cloud knew that sound from everywhere it sound like...

"He's here!" Cloud said.

"Huh?" Yume said.

"Come on we gotta get out of here!" Cloud said.

"Right." Yume nodded.

Yume and Cloud ran through the hallways of the arena, and headed to outside at the tournament. Where Donald, Goofy, Hercules, and Phil were confronted by a guy covered in blue flames. He was...

"Hades! But how...?" Hercules said.

"Did you really think you could keep good guy down?" Hades said.

"Um your more of a bad guy." Donald said.

"Quiet, pipsqueak!" Hades said.

"Don't tell your back for revenge." Goofy said.

"That's right, but I'm also doing something a little a more. I'm willing to take this place apart and make it as my own. I'll be the ruler this world and no one will be able to take me down." Hades said.

Yume got mad and walked straight to him as Cloud reach his hand her.

"I don't think so." Yume said to Hades.

"Well what do you know, another kid who's willing to face me. Ha ha ha that's just so precious." Hades said ignorantly.

"She's not the only one." Cloud said as he walked up next to Yume.

"Cloud?" Goofy said.

"The feeling is joyful my friends, but this isn't a good time for reunions." Cloud said.

"You won't win now Hades it's five against one!" Donald said.

"Or is it?" Hades summoned six dangerous heartless, three were amored and the another three were vitcouse.

"Uh-oh, this isn't good." Goofy said.

"Don't worry I got a plan. Me and Cloud will handle them. You guys take care of Hades." Hercules said.

"You mean, you really thrust me that I could defeat him?" Yume said.

"Of course, you won the tournament that proves you have what it takes. I bet you can defeat him with all you got." Hercules said.

Yume smiled delight, now that she had what it takes, she can definantly defeat this boss.

"Alright, then." Yume said.

"Wow Hercules, that's like you letting kids battle me. First it was Sora and now it's this Yume girl." Hades said.

"Hey! Yume is just as strong as Sora. She knews how to fight." Donald said. Yume was encorage by Donald's statement, it made her feel confident to fight even if she was afraid. Plus her friends go her back. Hercules and Cloud went off to the heartless to battle them.

"You know I never though I have you guys meddling in my ambision. But hey, if I have to deal this myself it shouldn't be no probe. I've tried to take this place down and always failed to acheeve it. Now I gotta start from the beginning again. Oh well, let's get this party started." Hades surrounded Yume, Donald, and Goofy with burning flames so they wouldn't escape. Yume summoned her keyblade getting ready to get this started as well as Donald and Goofy did. Hades summoned a big orange fire ball and threw it at Yume, she quickly dodge it by doing a summersault to her right. Donald use his magic to make the fire disappeared. Yume ran straight to Hades and smacking him with her keyblade, Goofy threw his shield at him. He got so furious that he summon three fireballs at the trio, Donald made a barrier to protect them from the flames. Yume used her light magic to make the flames vanish in thin smoke. Hades zapped Yume with his strong power of lighting. Yume land on her back in pain. She got back up from the hard ground and prepared to battle once again. Donald healed Yume giving her streght back.

"Let me try to spice things up a little." Hades summoned fire heartless coming from the orange flames. They were covered in fire with bigger hands and sharper claws. The trio jumped in fear of the fire heartless, just one touch from them and they were sure to get burn. Luckily Yume came up with a plan.

"Donald lets use what doesn't mixed with them." Yume said.

"You mean..." Donald said knowing what Yume meant. She nodded.

Yume pointed her keyblade at the heartsless and Donald pointed his staff at them, suddenly blizzards of ice came out form their weapons and smack the heartless surrounding them in swirl of ice. It kept twirling and twirling until it made the heartless flames melt away in the cold ice wind. Yume and Donald gave eachother a high five for their teamwork.

"Alright you seem to be an impressive team, but let's see if you have what it takes to me down!" Hades was now covered in orange fire, Yume tremble in fear as she stood scared at the flames. It didn't look good at all, Yume took a huge breath to calm her down. She braced herself to focus on her battle. Donald and Goofy though it wasn't good ether, they were worried about this. Yume could be in serious trouble now. Without hesitating she ran straight to Hades with her keyblade, hoping to stab him with it. She stop as she notice flames were getting close to her, she started coughing from the smoke as it kept getting closer and closer. She was sweating real badly, her vision turned blurry as she was suffercating from the lack oxygen. She lost concousness and begin to faint as she fell to the ground.

"YUME!" Donald and Goofy shouted.

Hades put the flames aside, they disappeared from the tournament stage. Smirking at his glorious moment. Donald and Goofy ran to Yume's unconcouse body, Goofy placed his hand on Yume's forehead. It felt really hot like if she had a fever, she was still sweating.

"She's really hot!" Goofy said.

"Correction my flames made her drowsy, it drain her energy from the heat that was surrounding her. I knew she couldn't stand it, she should of gotten of the way." Hades said cheekily.

"You brute!" Donald shouted.

Hades chuckle from Donald's reaction, it made him happy to see his enemies mad. Even if they were mad at him. He was at least happy Yume was defeated. At that moment Hercules and Cloud came just in time before Hades could finish them. They were shocked from Yume's unconcouse body laying on the ground, they to her to see how she was.

"What happen to her?!" Hercules asked.

"She just couldn't stand my precious flames, don't worry it's not like I eliminated her." Hades said.

"Hades! I can't believe you would do this!" Hercules said.

"Try harder to believe." Hades said. He let out an evil laugh and disappeared in his flames.

"We need to get her out of here." Cloud said. The rest nodded, Cloud carried Yume off the ground. They went inside the arena and lay her on the bench. Donald and Goofy were ashamed really badly, they were supposed to protect and they didn't even stood up for her.

"This is all our fault. We should've defend her." Goofy said gloomy.

"Don't blame yourselves, she just wasn't able take it. Even if she tried with all her might." Cloud said.

"Hades was too powerful, we got to stop him before he starts threating this place." Hercules got up from the bench and walked to the double doors.

"Where are going?" Donald asked.

"Someone gotta stop Hades before it's too late. I'm going after him." Hercules said.

"I'm going with you." Cloud said as he got up from bench. Then he turn to Donald and Goofy.

"You guys stay with her and keep her safe." He told them. Donald and Goofy nodded.

Hercules and Cloud went back to the tournament area.

Both men search around to find Hades as they wondered around area. All of the sudden blue flames appeared from nowhere in front of them. Hercules brought out his sword and shield as Cloud brought put out his big black sword.

"So you decided to come crawling back to me, even after I defeated that worthless little girl." Hades said with his hands crossed.

"Hades you got too far this time. What gives you the right to harm a innocent child?" Hercules said.

"How stupider can you be? I can be worst than that." Hades said.

"Well it's goanna happen now. We're goanna ends this once and for all." Cloud said

"I be delight to see you TRY!" Hades shouted as he release his fiery flames in front of him. Hercules and Cloud braced themselves to battle.

Yume begin to open her eyes as she was waking up from her uncousouse sleep.

"Yume are you alright?" Goofy said. Yume tried opening her eyes as they kept closing. Then she tried opening her eyes again.

"C'mon Yume pull through." Donald said. Yume open her eyes wide her vision turn from blurry to clear. She saw Donald and Goofy looking down at her.

"Wow, she was able to come soon." Goofy said Donald. Yume groan as she sat up from the bench she was laying on and put her hand on her head.

"Oh Yume! Your ok! Don't ever scare us like that again!" Donald hugged Yume tightly like if he would never let her go. Yume was still confused of what was going on. All she remembered was that she was battling Hades when huge flames came close to her.

"What's going on?" Yume asked.

"Don't worry, what matters is that your ok." Goofy said. Then Yume started to notice Hercules and Cloud weren't with them.

"Where's Cloud and Hercules?" Yume asked.

"They went out to finds Hades." Goofy said.

"What?!" Yume said shocked. Cloud and Hercules wouldn't stand a chance against Hades. Yume became worried.

"We have to go help them!" Yume got off from the bench, when she stop as she started to feel light-headed.

"Woah." Yume said feeling trippy.

"Easy, take it easy." Goofy said.

"You shouldn't move so much, your still a little weak." Donald said.

"But we have to help them." Yume said.

"I don't think you can fight in the condition your in kiddo." Goofy said.

"I don't care, they need our help. What kind of hero would I be if I let my friends be down?" Yume said. That was a good point.

"That does make sence." Goofy said.

"Oh alright." Donald said.

"C'mon let's go!" Yume said. Then ran off straight to the double doors.

"She's stubborn, yet very heroic." Donald said to Goofy.

Hades was instinctly beating Hercules and Cloud. They exhausted from fight and couldn't even continued.

"What's this? We have a couple of quickters who can't even put up a fight. How sad." Hades said.

He was took advantage of the moment and formed a big ball of fire to finish them with. Then a flash of light smack him making his fireball disappear, he turn to see Yume with her keyblade pointed at him. She was the one who made that flash of light.

"You?!" Hades said.

"I'm not letting you hurt them." Yume said.

"Well I guess I wouldn't mind taking you down again. But this time I won't go so easy on you sweets." Hades said.

Without hesitating Yume storm towards him and slice him the keyblade. Hades formed flames circling around her, doing the same trick he did to her at the last battle. Yume wasn't goanna let that take her down again, she held her keyblade up in the air above her head. Bright light came out from the tip of the keyblade and a big flash came, making the flames disappear. Hades stood their shocked of how she made the flames disappear. Then she jumped up and stab him real hard. Hades droped to the ground with his hand on his chest in pain.

"Impressive. I guess I underestimate you." Hades said.

Hercules came right by Yume side, next to her, preparing to fight along her side.

"But I don't think I let your underlings back you this time." Hades use his fire powers and zapped him with a burst of fire. Hercules landed on his back as he was knocked out from the flames.

"Hercules!" Yume ran to him as he was passed out from the incredible power. She look at his burnt body, covered in black spots.

"I'll give you a choose Hercules, dismemberment or barbeque?" Hades said. Yume got furious now he's gone too far this time.

"No! Your nothing but a coward, hiding behind useless flames!" Yume said in anger as she stood up to Hades.

"I obviously didn't burn you hard enough. Your still mocking my incredible power. But that is about to change." Hades said.

Hercules looked at his shield to see a refelction of Hades doing a dangerous fire spell against Yume.

"Now that you just messed it up for yourself, you will be cooked and served on a platter!" Hades said.

He was about to burn Yume with his deadly flames. Hoping to kill her with the painful death he was goanna give her.

"NO!" Hercules got up and ran besides Yume and put his sword in front her, to protect her from the burning flames. They bounce from Hercules's sword back to Hades backfiring the attack. Hades burned in the inferno fire as they burn his body like then he disappeared in the smokes.

"Thank for saving our home." Hercules said.

"No problem. We're always happy to help." Yume said.

"I gotta say kid, you really had the guts to face Hades like that." Phil said.

"Thank you." Yume said.

"Your really are a true hero." Phil said.

Yume thought about that statement, wondering if that was true after all she had got defeated by Hades. That made her think if she wasn't really a hero.

"I don't think so, I lost to Hades and I let Hercules get hurt. A real hero would never do that." Yume said sadly.

"Nonsence, you faced Hades without letting him take him you down. And you stood up for Hercules. And what matter is that you defeated him. That's what a true hero does." Phil said.

"Really?" Yume said.

"Of course, you were even willing to defeat Hades. Even thought you were still in bad condition. A true hero is always willing to help no matter what." Donald said.

"It's like what they say: "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." Hercules said

Yume felt happy to hear that, now that she prove she was brave and determine. She was in fact a true hero. Soon she'll be a fearless hero for sure.

"Well we better get going." Goofy said.

The trio waved goodbye to Hercules and Phil and left the arena. They back to the Gummy Ship and continued their journey.

Raymond exit out of his dark portal, he found himself in undefined place. A wall that was multi-colored, the floor looked like there was blood. As awful as this world looked like it was really bad. He had to do what was right for. He left to his left path where he found a kiddy place that had bunch of colors. There was a soft cushy bed-like, he looked closely to see a girl who was sleeping on it. She looked just like Nini...no wait! She was Nini! Raymond got closer to see, he saw Rhian who sitting next to the cushy bed.

Raymond walked up to them, he tried to be careful not to startle them. Rhian herd footsteps coming from behind him, he turn around as his eyes spotted a familiar friend of his.

"Raymond!" Rhian ran up to Raymond and gave a nice guy-hug.

"I can't believe your achtually here." Rhian said.

"I know, the feeling is overjoyed." Raymond said returning the smile. He looked at Nini to see her sleeping on the bed.

"Is she ok?" Raymond asked concern.

"Yeah she's just sleeping." Rhian said.

"For how long?" Raymond asked.

"Since we got here, I'd say like and hour in a half." Rhian said. The was a total silence for 5 seconds until Rhian spoked up.

"Now that were together we should go find Yume and Taision." Rhian said.

"No." Raymond said.

"What?" Rhian asked.

"Taision is with me you don't have to worry about him." Raymond said.

"But what about Yume?" Rhian asked.

"She's no longer our friend." Raymond said.

"What are you talking about?" Rhian said.

Raymond explain everything to Rhian about that Malificent told him. Rhian couldn't believe what he herd, he really didn't believe it at all. Yume was too nice to do something like that. He must of lost his mind, he knew was better than that, so why would he achtually think that?

"Raymond I don't think that's true, there's no way Yume would do that." Rhian said.

"That's what I herd, and it was apparently true." Raymond said.

"And you've believe that? You know Yume's too kind-hearted to do such a thing." Rhian said

"She's changed now, she's not our friend anymore." Raymond said in a serious tone.

"Who told you?" Rhian asked.

"A woman." Raymond said.

"What kind of woman?" Rhian asked.

Raymond didn't answer he just stood silent. Rhian knew this woman must've been a bad person. No wonder, he could tell Raymond's being tricked by that witch and he doesn't even know it.

"Raymond I think this woman is lieing to you. Can't you see your being trick? She wants to believe this so you could be her slave. She's using you!" Rhian said.

"I don't think so. Even Taision saw it himself, Yume's just a backstabber who doesn't want us anymore." Raymond said.

"I'm sure there's a simple explanation of what Yume did." Rhian said.

"There's no excuse about it. We have to worry about ourselves now, she's no longer our concern." Raymond said.

"This woman's up to no good Raymond, you don't know what getting yourself into." Rhian said.

"You don't even what your talking about. Now are you goanna argue with me or are you willing to help?" Raymond asked.

Rhian looked away from Raymond without answering, he wasn't goanna fall for that too. He knew Yume was innocent, he couldn't believe what a jerk Raymond was being. He didn't know what to do.

"I see you don't want to." Raymond said then he turn to Nini who was sleeping peacefully on the cushy bed.

"But that doesn't mean Nini wouldn't." Raymond said. He walked passed Rhian and went toward Nini, he picked her up and carried her bridal-style.

"I'll take care of Nini for you. And tried to figure out a way to wake her up. Let me know when you made up your mind." Raymond said.

He created a dark portal and walking into it with Nini in his arm. He disappeared with the portal as it vanished while Rhian had his back turned.

Finally done! This is the longest chapter I ever did. And yeah Rhian doesn't believe Raymond, he's on Yume's side so you don't have to worry :).

I hope you enjoyed it! Don't forget to review!
