The next morning I left Dennis's early, I asked for directions to the train and after we ate breakfast I left. I headed over to the Sahara Train Station, I walked up to a gazelle who was attending the booth.
"Excuse me"
"How can I help you today?" She asked.
"I'd like one ticket to Zoo-"
"Zootopia? Aw sorry but that way is closed for maintenance today" she looked down apologetically.
"Um... well... any other way I can get to it?"
"Yes well there's a trip that's going to Rainforest District, Fog St. You could ride that one and catch a train to Zootopia there"
"How much?"
"Just 5000 munnie please" And with that, I hopped on the train.
I decided to sit in a seat up in a small empty room above the regular train compartments. I could see out everywhere up here. While the train began to move Chirithy poofed out next to me.
"Well someone's been busy making money. Be glad you didn't hurt that baboon to seriously. You should be more careful next to time" I nodded an apology and Chirithy sat with me. "Boy this world sure is a nice one, it seems that no humans exist and mammals, as far as I know, are living in peace. I can't imagine how they'd react to seeing heartless"
"Any idea of where this world's 'keyhole' would be?" I asked. Chirithy looked at me.
"Keyhole? Why would you look for that?"
"It's my only chance of getting home once I find the light"
"Ah... well your guess is as good as mine and mine says it might be in this famous 'Zootopia'" We sat there for a couple more seconds and then a loud THUMP was heard. I looked out the window, Heartless! A tiger like heartless was sneaking it's way around on top of the train.
"C'mon you got to stop it!" Chirithy poofed away as I got up and ran to the emergency exit at the back of the train. I jumped up to the top and was met with Soldier heartless as well as Darkballs.
It was freezing out here, we had entered what I figured to be Tundratown with all the snow. A soldier began to spin itself and jump at me, I deflected it back and knocked it off the train. I battle a couple more as well as the Darkballs until I met with the tiger heartless. He growled at me, his eyes were blank and unemotional.
"Spark dash!" I charged with my keyblade in an electrical state. The tiger tried to counter but one touch of my keyblade they had shocked the fur off of itself. I slammed the tigers face into the train and jabbed it's side. They roared and lunged at me, I wasn't strong enough to hold it back and it pinned me down. They bit into my shoulder and shook it. I grunted and then kicked them off me and got up. My shoulder was bleeding but I've suffered worse. I ran and got at least 5 hits on the heartless until it jumped away. He roared again and ran at me. They tried to bite my face off but I countered and slashed it back. The train had now entered into a less cold but wet environment. The tiger and I kept battling. I was getting exhausted and I didn't have anytime to use my cura spell to heal. I gave the tiger one final strike and sent it across the train. It slid over almost to the next train compartment. It laid there and didn't move. I assumed I had just knocked it unconscious. I cautiously made my way to it, but it still surprised me when it got up and knocked us both off the train. We fell on tree branches and fell all the way to the ground.
I got up, my head hurt but I was okay. I looked around, a lot of lux, health and mp bubbles were sitting in one area. The fall must've killed the tiger. The train was long gone when I found it. No way I'd be able to catch up to it. I just decided to follow the tracks.
"Can't get much worse I guess" I said to myself. Then it started to rain. Personally I had always wanted to go and visit a tropical rain forest like area. And i figured that this whole "becoming a wielder" deal had completely screwed that over, but I was wrong. Course it didn't have wild animal life but it still had a nice cold feel to the air. I'd find a wandering heartless here and there, I even met a couple of heartless in the shape's of monkeys. But I made it safely to the station. There were a lot of bridges, and everyone carried umbrella's. I should buy oneI thought. I quickly found a shop and purchased an umbrella with a black and red pattern to it.
I decided to walk to Zootopia as it wasn't that much further and I had no other option. I eventually came across this place which on the map was labeled as, Shady Place. And it did seem to have some shady animals. I noticed that a couple of sloths were staring at me. Though I just think that it was because their eyes move very slowly. Eventually I found my way to Zootopia and I spent the night at a motel.
