Sora, Donald and Goofy set up tent. Sora flopped onto his sleeping bag with his hands acting like a pillow, his body facing the roof of the tent. "Manolo sure does have a nice voice," Sora said.

"He does," Goofy said. "All his secret practicin' has worked."

"I haven't seen any kind of romance drama like this before," Donald said, taking off his hat.

"It really is excitin'" Goofy agreed. "I hope they can get things sorted out." Goofy took off his hat as well.

"I'm sure they can. They're all good friends," Sora stated. Goofy pulled out his shield and started cleaning it with a cloth. A few smears came on it when the Heartless from before crashed into it. Donald lay down and stared at the roof. Sora took his shoes off and placed them next to his sleeping bag. He pulled out his Gummi Phone and posted a picture on his Kingstagram account.

Goofy looked at it once his Gummi Phone buzzed. A picture of Manolo singing to Maria is on the screen with captions that read, 'Manolo has a great singing voice! And he plays guitar! This place has action, romance, drama and I'm all here for it! #SanAngel #ManolosGuitar #Drama #WhoWins'

Goofy smiled at it and put his phone back down. Sora pulled the covers up over himself and rolled over. "Goodnight, Donald-who-is-already-asleep," Sora said. "Goodnight, Goofy."

"Goodnight, Sora," Goofy answered. Once Goofy finished cleaning his shield, he blew the lantern out and went to sleep.

Goofy shot awake. He lifted up his ear. "Help!" Manolo's voice called. Goofy scrambled to his feet, shoving his shoes on. "Sora! Donald! Manolo needs help!" Goofy called.

"Five more minutes," Sora said, rolling over.

"Hm?" Donald managed, sitting up. Goofy lit the lantern to get Sora up. "Manolo needs our help!" Goofy said louder. Donald quacked and ran over to Sora. "Out of bed, sleepy head!" he yelled. Donald pushed up Sora, who is still half asleep. Goofy handed Sora his shoes, who put them on, and helped him up. "Out ya go, Sora!" Goofy said, pushing Sora out of the tent door.

Donald used a little bit of water to get Sora awake. A small trail of water shot out from his staff and hit Sora in the face. "Wha-! I'm up!" Sora cried.

"Good! Let's go!"

"Go...where?" Sora asked, smiling nervously.

"This way!" Goofy said, taking the lead. Sora and Donald followed Goofy up to the big tree they crashed near. They stopped when they met up with Joaquin and General Posada. Manolo's silhouette appeared in the fog of the early morning.

When he emerged, he was looking down, sadly, at Maria, laying limp in his arms. "Maria!" the group shouted in unison with Joaquin and General Posada.

"My girl!" General Posada cried. "What did you do?"

Joaquin grabbed Maria's hand and flinched at the touch, dropping her hand. Sora covered his mouth. Donald and Goofy held onto Sora. "There was a snake and..." Manolo handed Maria to her father. "Why didn't you protect her?" Joaquin asked, reaching for his sword.

"Oh no! Oh no!" General Posada cried. "You get stay away from her, boy, or I'll-" Thunder struck, interrupting his sentence. Rain began pouring from the sky, as if mourning. General Posada turned around and began walking away with his daughter. "It should've been me..." Manolo said quietly, looking away from Joaquin.

"Yes," Joaquin turned away from Manolo, "it should've." He walked passed Sora, Donald and Goofy. Manolo's head went down. He turned around and wiped away his tears. "You can go too," Manolo said.

Sora stayed silent for a minute. A lump in his throat formed, preventing him from talking. "We're not goin' anywhere, Manolo," Goofy said. "We'll be here all the way for ya."

Manolo was silent for a minute. "Gracias." The group was silent for a little while before Manolo began to walk toward the tree. Sora followed him, Donald and Goofy nearby, but still behind. "Manolo, are...are you okay?"

"I'll be fine," Manolo said. "I just...have to get my guitar."

Manolo paused in front of the tree and stared at his guitar. Sora, Donald and Goofy stayed silent behind him. "I'm sorry, Maria. If only I can see you again," Manolo whispered.

"Manolo..." Sora said quietly.

"How much do you want to see her, boy?" asked a voice from behind the tree. The voice startled Sora, while Donald pulled out his staff. An old man walked out from behind the tree, his long nose pointing upwards. "With all my heart," Manolo replied.

"Be careful what you wish for, boy," the old man said. Black fog surrounded him, starting from his feet, rising above his head. The cover of smoke rose taller than the senior. The fog dissipated, revealing a tall black figure, with inky black wings, a green skull, red skull eyes, and a crown with horns. "Are you sure?" he checked.

Manolo looked at his guitar. "With all my heart." The black figure smiled a toothy grin full of pointed teeth. He snapped. A two headed snake came out from behind the black figure. "Manolo!" Sora cried. He wasn't fast enough. The snake bit Manolo's ankles with both heads. "Maria..." Manolo said through dying breath.

"Manolo!" Sora cried. He reached for Manolo. "Ah ah ah!" the black figure said, moving in front of Manolo.

"What did you do to him?!" Sora yelled.

"I just brought him to meet Maria," he replied. "It's what he wanted. What did he say? 'With all my heart'?"

"You didn't have to kill him!" Sora yelled.

"Maria's dead. The only way to see her is to kill him," the man said, shrugging.

Sora pulled out his Keyblade. "How do you know her name?" Sora asked.

"I have my ways," the man said.

Sora growled at the figure and slashed at him with his Keyblade. "You'll pay for this!"

"Sora!" Donald and Goofy cried.

Sora yelled and swung again. Once again, the man moved out of the way. "Sora!" Goofy cried, running in front of Sora. He pulled out his shield to block the attack from the figure. "Sora!" Goofy yelled. "Calm down!"

Sora jumped over Goofy and swung at the figure again. This time, he squashed into black ooze, flew around Sora, and reformed behind him. "Peek-a-boo," he said, smiling. "Sora!" Donald called, running in front of Sora and shooting a fireball at the man.

He just slashed it away with his hand. The fireball disappeared when he touched it. He closed his fist. "Now you're making me mad," he said. He moved closer towards the group. Donald and Goofy ran in front of Sora, blocking any direction Sora could escape from. "Now it's time to end this," the man said, floating upwards, spreading his arms to his sides as he rose. He snapped his fingers.

The two headed snake grew to an unusually large size and wrapped around the trio. The grip on the snake grew tighter. "I'm sorry, guys!" Sora yelled. "I don't know what came over me!"

"You're apologizing now?" Donald asked, his shoulder digging into Sora's leg.

"It's okay, Sora," Goofy said.

"No, it isn't. Because I didn't listen to you, we're getting crushed by a giant snake," Sora said, closing his eye as Goofy's ear began poking it. "I shouldn't have done that. I should've...listened to...you..." Sora dropped his Keyblade.

By this point, it was getting hard to breathe. "I tried to warn you, boy," the man said, narrowing his eyes at the group. "You shouldn't have angered me." He said something before he vanished.

"I'm...sorry..." Sora breathed, a single tear running down his cheek.

The snake closed in and everything became dark.
