CHAPTER 14.5: Meet The Summons Part 2

[Open to the outside of the owl house, where Luz, Eda, King, Willow, and Gus wait for Sora]

Sora: Might as well do it out here. Ready to see?

All: Yeah!

Sora: Here.

Sora holds his fist and turns it over to show a charm in the shape of a certain lamp.

Eda: Hold on. What exactly is so special about this prize?

Sora smirks.

Sora: You'll see.

They were suddenly interrupted by loud noises coming from inside the house.

Eda: Ugh. Hooty. King, go inside and take care of that.

King: What?! But I wanna see Sora's prize.

Eda: *points at the door* Now. Before he makes a huge mess.

Sora kneels and pets King's head.

Sora: I'll show you and tell you about it, ok?

King: *groans* Fine.

King walks inside the house. Sora then turns to the others again, holds the lamp charm close to his chest, and floats off the ground. Blue light swirls around and, with a grunt of effort.

Sora: Together!

A flash of blue light blinds everyone. As the light subsides, blue smoke appears, and it surrounds everyone. Then suddenly, a giant muscular figure appears out of the blue smoke and greatly towers over everyone. The figure stretches its arms and yawns loudly. The figure reveals its appearance as a blue-skinned man with black pony-tailed hair, pointy ears, gold earrings, thin facial hair, and a red sash around his waist.

Blue Man: Oi! Even after a good nap, you can still get such a crick in the neck!

The blue man looks down and notices a familiar boy and gasps with joy.

Blue Man: Sora! Sora, you goody boy, you! *shrinks down and hugs Sora tightly* It's been a long, long, long, time-o!

Sora: *small laugh* Genie!

Luz and the others were shocked to see and hear what Sora had just said.

Luz/Willow/Gus: G-g-ge-gen-GENIE?! GENIES ARE REAL?!

Eda: *jaw dropped* Impossible... I thought Genies were a myth.

Genie moves into the other's faces.

Genie: *Christopher Sabat impression* HA-HA-HA-HAAA... Oh, I'm VERY real... as you can see... *flexes his muscles* I AM HERE!

Sora turns to Luz and the others.

Sora: Guys, this is Genie. One of my summons and friends from my past adventures.

Luz: Oh wait. If I recall, you said you left your other summons behind in your world?

Sora: Yeah, because they weren't able to help out with other adventures. I also said two specific ones were busy with their things. Genie here is one of them.

Eda, Willow, and Gus heard what Sora said and understood now.

Sora turns to Genie.

Sora: By the way, Genie. How did you get here to this world? I left your charm back on Destiny Islands.

Genie: *Stephen Fry impression* Ah yes, excellent question.

Genie snaps his fingers, and a large screen and a movie projector appear out of thin air.
He flips a switch, and a film starts playing. Genie explains how he appeared in the Boiling Isles as the film shows it.

Genie: I've been given an all-expense-paid trip from your world to here, courtesy of his... r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-royal highness!

The film shows King Micky holding Genie's charm and another on one hand while holding the Star Shard on the other, given to him by a wizard dressed in blue. Sora recognized them immediately.

Sora: Your Majesty! Master Yen-Sid!

Luz: Are those some of your friends from your home?

Sora turns around in excitement.

Sora: Yeah! And they're good people.

The film then showed King Mickey wrapping the charms and a package attached to the Star Shard and sending it flying out the window. And the film immediately ends as Genie snaps his finger, causing the film projector to disappear.

Genie: Oh! I almost forgot. Sora!

Sora: *turns to Genie* Huh?

Genie: I'm not alone... *Jerry Lewis Impression* I happen to bring a special guest with me!

Sora: Wait, what? Who?

Luz: *excited* Another summon?!

Genie: Behold...

Genie folds his hands together and shakes em up a bit. He opened up his hands, and a small yellow ball light flew straight out and flew all over the group. It flies toward each member of the group and eventually blitzes towards Sora. It stops for a bit and bounces, proceeding to fly around Sora in circles. Finally, it stops in front of Sora again, and the ball of light disperses. She reveals a tiny female fairy with blonde hair in a bun while wearing a green strapless dress with a miniskirt. On her feet, she wears green flats with white puffballs on her toes. She also has transparent, butterfly-like wings. Sora immediately recognized her and chuckled.

Sora: Tinkerbell!

As soon as Tinkerbell recognized Sora, she immediately lit up with a bright smile of her own that seemed to make the light around her glow brighter than it already was. She then flew around Sora in excitement, leaving a trail of sparkles behind her while the sound of rapid ringing bells filled the air, and then proceeded to hug Sora's face.

Sora: *chucking* I missed you too! It's been so long.

The other girls noticed this and began smirking while wondering if Sora had any more female friends he's not telling. Sora turned around to the others.

Sora: Guys, this is Tinkerbell. She is another friend from my previous adventures. She may be small, but she's tough.

Tinkerbell nods confidently. Luz and Willow then walk up to Sora and Tinkerbell.

Luz: Oh wow.

Willow: She's seems so lovely.

Tinkerbell then flares orange when she sees the girls get close to Sora. She flies in between the two and Sora and puts her hands on her waist. She is showing a disapproving look.

Luz: Woah. Sassy too.

Sora smiles sheepishly while rubbing the back of his head with his right hand.

Sora: Oh yeah, I forgot that she can be a bit over-protective when it comes to any guy she's friends with.

Sora then recounts the times Tinkerbell gets jealous and over-protective with Peter-Pan when Wendy Darling was around back in Neverland. Like the one time when Tinkerbell kicked Donald's beak when he called her out. And on the clocktower when he saw Peter and Wendy holding hands. Sora then notices Eda and Genie.

Eda: *flirty tone* Sooo, big guy. If you are a genie, does that mean you grant wishes?

Luz, Willow, Gus, stand behind Eda with stars in their eyes.

Luz/Willow/Gus: Wishes?!

A big x on Genie's chest appears and makes a buzzer sound.

Genie: So sorry, boys and girls. But, my wish-granting days have long been over.

Others aside Sora: What?

Eda: But I thought Genies grant wishes.

Sora: Oh, right. See, Genie's previous master wishes for his freedom.

Genie: Exacto-mundo. And before you ask, yes, I can still grant wishes. It's just it's my choice from now on.

Eda: Oh, boosh.

Luz: Wait. How'd he bring a video projector here?

Genie: Glad you ask, my dear. It comes with the package of having phenomenal cosmic powers at your disposal. *Mike Myers impression* I can practically do anything.

Eda: Wait a minute, did you say anything?

Genie: *Mike Myers impression* Anything.

Willow: Anything?

Genie: *Mike Myers impression* Yes, anything.

Gus: Anything?

Genie: *Mike Myers impression* Anything.

Luz: ...Anything?

Genie: *Sonny Strait/Dave Trosko impression* YYYEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHH!

Genie shouted so loud that the other Boiling Isles residents turned their heads around in confusion, wondering what made that noise.

Eda and the questioners just stood there with a blank stare. Fortunately, they were wearing noise-canceling headsets that Sora inexplicably gave them. Genie leaned down to their eye level.

Genie: Clear answer?

Others aside Sora: Crystal.

Sora: Too much, Genie.

Genie: Sorry, I thought they couldn't hear me. Although, I should make it clear as well that my powers have diminished lately for some reason. Either that or I'm getting rusty.

Sora sighs.

Sora: Ok, now for Tinkerbell. She's pretty special.

Eda/Luz/Willow: Oh? How so?

Sora: She and a friend essentially taught me how to fly.

Everyone gasped.

Luz/Willow/Gus: *excited* You got your flying from her?!

Sora: Yup. Do you want to try it?

The others cheer in excitement.

Sora: Alright, Tink, let's give them a hand.

Tinkerbell nods and begins to concentrate on the others, but they are all suddenly interrupted by a horde of Heartless that appears and surrounds them.

Sora: Heartless!

Sora immediately summons his keyblade as Eda readies her staff.

Eda: Woah. Sora, look. These are the ones we fought a while ago with Lillith.

Sora: You're right.

The Heartless that have appeared are indeed the same ones from that encounter. They have tails and straight horns coming out of their heads.

Eda: Kids, get inside the house!

Luz, Willow, and Gus were hesitant about leaving. The three smacked their faces with both their hands and stood their ground. Luz draws out three fire glyph cards on each hand, Willow summons thorned vines, and Gus summons a muscular illusion construct.

Luz: No way! We can help fight this time!

Willow: We've seen what these things can do. There's no way we can stand by letting you take them on yourselves.

Gus: Yeah! We aren't afraid!

?: *echoing* Ha! But you should be, pipsqueak.

Everyone was surprised to hear a voice coming out of nowhere.

Eda: What the heck?

Luz: Who said that?

Sora: That voice. I know it! Show yourself!

A dark corridor suddenly appears in front of them and outcomes what seems to be a large male black cat wearing a strange bodysuit. Sora immediately recognized him.

Sora: Pete!

Eda/Luz: Who?

Willow and Gus are confused about who Pete is. Meanwhile, Pete snaps his fingers, and a Heartless suddenly pounces at Gus, slashes the illusion construct away, and raises its claws at Gus. Gus screams in fear.

Gus: *running towards the house* I'm sorry! I'm not ready to fight these things after all! So I'll just hide in the house!

Everyone watches Gus run and hide inside.

Sora: *sheepish* Don't worry, it was a good try, though!

Everyone turns around.

Sora: Ok, Pete! Start talking! What are you doing here, and where's Maleficent?!

Luz and Eda's eyes narrowed.

Luz/Eda: *thinking* Maleficent?!

Pete: I'm afraid Maleficent is too busy with somethin' else to deal with you lot. So, she sends me instead.

Sora: Those Heartless, and those Darksides! It was you two who sent them after my friends and me!

While Willow is confused about who Pete is and how Sora knows this guy. Luz, Eda, who knew all about Sora's story and heard Maleficent's in their conversation, wandered a bit and came to the similar conclusion that Pete is one of the enemies Sora has faced on his previous adventures.

Pete: That's right, although it was to deliver a message.

Sora: And what is that?

[Play Rowdy Rumble ~ Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX Remastered OST]

Pete: *cracking his knuckles* That she and I are makin' a BIG comeback!

Luz and Willow tremble a bit. But they remember all the times Sora has dealt with the Heartless with relative ease and with bravery. They get a hold of themselves and ready themselves to fight. Sora notices them.

Sora: Luz, Willow! Are you sure you can handle this?

Luz: I've been practicing my fire glyphs. I'm sure I can handle this.

Willow: Ever since that one fight with that giant heartless, I've been training as well. I don't want to see the Heartless hurt anyone else!

Sora: Genie! Tink! Ready for a fight?

Genie: You bet! *giving Sora a thumbs up*

Tink salutes.

Sora: Ok, then. Let's get ready to do this. But, first, we'll show these creeps the real superpower of teamwork!

His team cheered.

Pete: Heartless, ATTACK!

Pete points at Sora and the others as the Heartless begin to attack.

Sora: Get ready!

Sora slashes three heartless, one by one, while Eda blasts two of them with a fire spell.
Willow uses vines as whips to smack at least two heartless away, while Luz manages to incinerate at least three with her fire glyph cards. Remembering her previous attempt at using them, she decided to use them one time instead of combining them. Next, Genie, being in a suit for some reason, was cornered by at least five heartless.

Genie: *Al Pacino impression* You want to mess with me? Ok.

Genie then summons what looks like a, shall we say, somewhat iconic shooting weapon and aims it at the five heartless.

Genie: *Al Pacino impression* You wanna play rough?! Ok!

The Heartless prepare to pounce at Genie.

Genie: *Al Pacino impression* SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!

Genie then blasts the five heartless with one huge shot of magic energy. Tinkerbell flies around in circles of three heartless at high speeds. Using her pixie dust, she causes the heartless to float high into the sky, allowing Sora to unleash thundaga to zap them while Eda releases light streams to destroy four. Pete watches with slight concern, thinking that Eda, Luz, and Willow wouldn't be able to put up much of a fight. And yet, they are, doing not too bad actually. Sore then finishes off the last three by slashing them. The team regrouped.

Sora: Ha! As usual, you're done. So, why not run back to Maleficent?

Pete: D'ooooh. *slumps* Guess I'll have to leave after all.

Pete turns around, causing everyone to think he's leaving. But then, he suddenly turns around and leaps towards Eda, Luz, and Willow.

Pete: Or, better yet, we can finish this ourselves!

Pete then suddenly lands and slams his fist to the ground causing a tremor of dark magic to send the three flying towards the house. Eda, Luz, and Willow landed and rolled towards the front door, groaning in pain. Sora turns around and sees his friends in shock.

Sora: Guys!

Pete: *chuckles* Alright, Sora. It's just you and me now. Mano-a-mano. *cracks his knuckles*

Sora: What the heck?! When did you get so strong?!

Pete: Training, of course. And learning a few new tricks here and there. Now, stop yer yappin', and let's end this.

Sora: Hurting my friends...

Sora looks up at Pete with a glare.

Sora: Big mistake!

Pete winds up his right fist, getting ready to punch Sora. Sora, in return, charges at Pete with his keyblade, and the two begin to battle. Pete throws fast jabs at Sora while Sora blocks each of them with his keyblade.

Pete: You can't defend forever!

Sora: Good thing I don't have to.

While the jabs and blocks kept going, Pete tried to throw a faster one, but Sora summoned his blue aura to dodge it and began to zig-zag around the trees, landing on his feet and launching right at Pete, delivering blows on him with his keyblade. This kept going on and on until Eda, Luz, and Willow, who were sent flying earlier, lifted their heads, and we were surprised to see what was happening. What they saw was a blue blur of light-emitting on Pete while he was getting clobbered. Sora then zooms past Pete and lands on his feet with his arms out, parallel to each other. Sora then turns around to see Pete, dizzy from all those blows. He then falls to his back. He was so dizzy that it, to him, sounded like two heartless birds flying around on his head, making the coo-coo sound.

Pete: Duuuuhhhh...

Sora, Genie, and Tinkerbell then rushed toward the others.

Sora: Are you three ok?!

Eda: *struggling* Scratch here, bruise there. One healing spell should do it.

Sora: Right.

Sora points his keyblade at the three.

Eda: *struggling* Uhh, what are you doing?

Sora: Curaga!

Flowers and vines appear from the keyblade's tip and touch the heads of Eda, Luz, and Willow. Whatever pain and injuries they may have had, it's now completely gone. This shocked the three, and they stood up, stretching their bodies.

Eda: Wow!

Willow: I feel so much better now!

Luz: You have healing magic?!

Sora just stood there, sheepishly.

Sora: Yeah.

Luz: ...And you didn't think to use it when on our past pains or injuries?

Sora: Uhh, well... see, the thing is, the Curaga spell completely drains my magic. And it takes a while to recharge from that.

Luz: Oh.

Sora: *rubbing the back of his with his right hand* Yeah.

Sora turns around to Genie and Tinkerbell.

Sora: Are you guys ok?

Genie: Oh, yes! All's good here!

Tinkerbell nods.

Just then, they hear Pete getting up and he is frustrated by his defeat. They face each other.

Pete: D'ooooh! Don't think this is over! I'll be back!

Pete then opens up a dark corridor and runs through it. The dark corridor then disappears.

Sora: Well. That takes care of that.

Genie: Well, I'm afraid it is time to head back. *yawns deeply* I could use a nap.

Sora: Ok. Oh, wait, Tink. I still want my friends here to experience flying. How about a quick speck of pixie dust?

Tinkerbell nods in agreement.

Willow: Wait a sec. *turning to the front door* Gus! Come on! Battle's over! Time to fly!

Gus comes out and runs towards the others.

Gus: Oh, boy!

Sora: Now.

Tinkerbell quickly flies around the others and then flies to Sora and kisses his nose, and waves goodbye. She then disappears in a ball of light.

Genie: *waving with his right hand* *Charles Martinet impression* See you next time!

Genie then disappears in a puff of blue smoke.

Sora turns to his friends.

Sora: Ready to fly?

They cheered.

Luz: How do we do it?

Sora: *smiles* Believe and think happy thoughts. And you'll do it.

[Play Hikari 光 (Simple and Clean) Orchestral Instrumental Version] [0:03]

The others became surprised when they saw themselves suddenly floating from the ground.

Sora: Now, watch what I do.

Sora does a flying backflip and rushes high in the sky, flying everywhere while spinning his body around. Luz and the others mimicked what Sora did and were doing surprisingly well for their first time flying. They were having so much fun flying that they didn't notice the sun was already going and the moon was rising. Sora then noticed the others flying all wobbly-like and told them that the pixie dust doesn't last long and said they should land now. All but Willow did what he said. Willow then felt her pixie dust wear off.

Willow: Oh no.

Willow screamed while falling, but Sora managed to catch her with his arms, holding her like a bride. The two slowly descended to the ground. Sora looks down at her.

Sora: That was close. Are you ok?

Willow was a bit in awe and blushed.

Willow: Y-yeah, thanks for catching me.

The two landed, and Sora put Luz down on her feet.

[End Hikari 光 (Simple and Clean) Orchestral Instrumental Version] [0:52]

Luz: Willow, you ok?

Willow: Yeah.

Eda: Nice catch, Sora.

Sora nods.

Eda: Welp, that was fun. But, the moon's going up. Time to hit the nest. Goodnight.

Luz: Yeah. *yawns* I need sleep.

Willow: Me too. It's almost past curfew

Gus runs past the others.

Gus: Oh, brownies! Almost past curfew! See ya later!

Willow: *waves* See ya.

Willow then follows Gus by running.

Eda, Luz, and Sora watch the two leave for their homes.

Sora: Alright. Time for bed.

The three then head inside, but Sora remembers something from Genie's film. He saw King Mickey and Master Yen-Sid send some sort of package with a Star Shard.

Sora: *thinking* What were his majesty and Master Yen-Sid sending out through the window?

[Cut to nighttime, where Sora is sleeping in his room]

While sleeping, the package that King Mickey sent out can be seen next to him.
