Sora was in Olympus Coliseum, trying to find a way to bring back his strength. Xigbar had just disappeared after a conversation with Sora, and Sora was trying to figure out what Xigbar meant by some of the things he said. "Hearts breaking? Whose hearts?" Sora mused.

"Sora, don't let him bother you. He's just trying to get under your skin 'cause he thinks he can. But we'll prove him wrong. We'll show him that our sacrifices haven't been for nothing," Hercules encouraged.

"You're right," Sora agreed.

"Mm-hmm! Besides, we're already proof enough!" Goofy added.

"We're a team! When we're together, we can do anything!" Donald pointed out.

"Yeah!" Sora smiled. His smile faltered, and he went back to looking glum.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Hercules asked.

"Nothing. I've just got a lot on my plate," Sora sighed.

"Is that it? You still look a little down," Hercules commented.

"Nothing is wrong!" Sora blurted out. He stopped himself and went on to act like everything was fine. "Wow, uh, sorry. That uh, that snuck out there. What I meant was, um, why would anything be wrong? I'm totally fine. You're all fine, I'm fine, I'm totally not nervous."

"You sure you're okay?" Hercules checked.

Sora couldn't stop himself from conveying how he was feeling through song, so instead of fighting it, he began to sing.

"I'm the strong one
I'm not nervous
I have friends that will help me like you did"

Hercules was a bit put off by Sora's sudden song, but he went with it. "Okay."

"I have saved en-
tire planets
And I glow 'cause I know what my worth is"

"Of course, I mean-" Hercules began. Donald and Goofy both took a step back as the incident in the Gummi Ship when they had tried to cheer Sora up after he didn't pass his Mark of Mastery was still fresh in their minds. "Hey, where are you going?"

"I don't ask how
Hard the work is
Got a huge undeniable purpose
Fighting for friendship
I am coming to grips
I take what I'm handed
I do what's demanded, but

Under the surface
I feel berserk
As a tightrope walker in a three-ring circus
Under the surface
Hey, Herc, were you ever like
Yo, I don't wanna fight Cerberus?"

Hercules opened his mouth to reply, but when Sora didn't give him a chance to say anything and continued singing instead, he realized it was a rhetorical question.

"Under the surface
I'm pretty sure I'm worthless
If I can't be of service
A flaw or a crack
The straw in the stack
That breaks the camel's back
What breaks the camel's back?

It's pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop
Whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip till you just go pop
Whoa
Give it to your best friend, the keyblade holder
Give him all the heavy things we can't shoulder
Who am I if I can't run with the ball?
If I fall to

Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go
Whoa
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick till it's ready to blow
Whoa
Give it to your best friend; your best friend's stronger
See if he can hang on a little longer
Who am I if I can't carry it all?
If I falter

Under the surface
I hide my nerves, and it worsens I worry something is gonna hurt us
Under the surface
The ship doesn't swerve
Has it heard how big the iceberg is?
Under the surface
I think about my purpose
Can I somehow preserve this?
Line up the dominoes
A light wind blows
You try to stop it topplin'
But on and on it goes

But wait
If I could shake
The crushing weight
Of expectations
Would that free some room up for
Joy
Or relaxation
Or simple pleasure
Instead, we measure
This growing pressure
Keeps growing
Keep going
'Cause all we know is

Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop
Whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip till you just go pop
Whoa
Give it to your best friend; it doesn't hurt and
See if he can handle every friendship burden
Watch as he buckles and bends but never breaks
No mistakes just
Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go
Whoa
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick till it's ready to blow
Whoa
Give it to your best friend and never wonder
If the same pressure would've pulled you under
Who am I if I don't have what it takes
Get strong; no breaks
No mistakes
No pressure"

"I wonder if you're handling a little too much," Goofy brought up.

"Maybe I am overdoing it. I just can't rest with the final battle coming up. I need to get strong again so I can protect everyone," Sora sighed.

"You will. In the meantime, you can lean on us. The three of us make a whole pint," Donald encouraged.

"Pint and a half," Sora reminded. The three friends laughed it off and continued moving.

"Good to see you're feeling better, I guess?" Mentioned a confused Hercules.


Noelle Angland: I hope you enjoyed it. I'll have I See the Light up next.

speedster101: I never thought about the songs from the Disney Parks. I'll play around with some and see if I come up with anything.
