Hey guys and dolls, I have returned with a new chapter for you.
Last time, our heroes saved the world of Agrabah and were on their way to the next world. In the meantime, Axel, Organization XIII's number VIII (8) battled and defeated the Fall Maiden Cinder Fall. And with taking her back with him, what will this mean? Will we see a reunion between enemies this time? Only time…will tell…
So, did you all see the new Volume 9 trailer? I think it looks good, so let's hope it is good. I am a bit confused by the Alice in Wonderland vibe though…I wonder where they're going with this…
To KnightSpark: You will find out soon enough ;)
To RonaldM40196867: Genie is one fun character, I wonder how he knows, yes he is. Axel and Cinder met indeed and I knew that already, thanks, thanks, I did my best. Do I need a reason to include him? Because when comparing the world of RWBY to Kingdom Hearts, many of them are pretty powerful in comparison. Plus Cinder's flames are no match for Axel, who can simply get stronger and can al himself with them.
To Gamelover5000: thanks, and yes…trouble is arising them all.
To Jacob9594: Cinder is going to have a part to play.
To brave kid: You'll see soon enough.
To Robbeeyy: :)
To Fallbridge: thanks. And so far to Vegapunk…I don't know, I got some mixed feelings, while I like his theories on Devil Fruits, I am mixed on the idea that a member of CP-0 is secretly working with him..
To Shadow hunt: Right.
To Guest: Well…
Now let's take a look as our heroes go into the spooky world….of Halloween Town ;)
Kingdom Hearts belongs to Tetsuya Nomura, Shinji Hashimoto, Disney, and Square Enix.
RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth and creator Monty Oum (R.I.P.)
Castle that Never Was
"So, this is the one huh?" Xigbar asked as he and the other members were now circling around the downed Cinder Fall, who was still unconscious and mumbling a bit in her sleep. "The Fall Maiden?"
"Yep," Axel said in a voice that was not in an interesting mood. "Gave me some trouble, but nothing a hot stud like me couldn't handle." He said as he chuckled a bit, but the others sighed a bit.
"I can sense her heart clouded in darkness," Luxord said as he looked at her with interest. "With the powers she possesses, she will not only make a good Heartless but also a powerful Nobody to add to our fold."
"I agree,'' Said one of them, still in the hood but his voice was deep. "The strength with her Maiden powers could prove to be of use to us, all she needs is the extra push."
"Of course!" Demyx said with a grin. "But how though? I mean she is still loyal to that Salem lady right?"
Luxord chuckled. "No need to worry, once we show her our power…she might think twice about who to work for…we should leave it up to fate." He said as he looked at his cards.
Meanwhile, the figure of a woman was shown hiding and listening to their conversation. She was a young woman who was wearing a wide white cropped broad-tailed jacket that had a pink interior, it had a single pink button, and large pink cuffs. Her lower attire consisted of brown pants with a dark belt that had a gray buckle that had an additional belt underneath. Under the jacket, she wore a brown overbust corset that was curved in the middle, and her hips were exposed at the bottom. She also wore a black beaded necklace that hung around her neck and wore black and white spats under the knee boots. Her hair was half pink and half brown with white streaks on the pinky side, and the hair was super thick with a slight wave to them. And her eyes….her right eye was pink and her left eye was brown and wore a black fedora. This figure was a criminal known as Neapolitan, named after the ice cream flavor of the same name.
This diminutive woman was once the partner to the infamous Remnant criminal mastermind, Roman Torchwick, who was killed in the Fall of Beacon. For a year now she has been looking for the person responsible, and since Ciner had him under her thumb, she was the main one responsible. When she was in the forest, she saw Cinder and was about to attack and hopefully end her…but it changed when she saw the fight.
The powers of that Axel guy…Neo would not reveal it, but something was very off about him, and because of her curiosity, she went through the dark portal and followed them back to the Organization's HQ. And now she was there spying on them all. And from what she was hearing these men were a bit of a mystery to her. Heartless? Nobody's? What were they all talking about?
"Luck…yes." the hooded leader then looked at Xigbar. "Still, is her darkness strong enough to create a Nobody? Or will she just become Heartless and not a Nobody?" He asked.
"As I said, maybe we should leave it up to fate to decide," Luxord said as he and the others agreed.
Neo wanted to jump in right away and kill Cinder, but something in her gut was telling her to stay put until the men had gone away….there was something very off with these men, and from what she saw with that fire guy…she cautiously didn't want to start a fight…at least not yet. She would have to play this smart.
Meanwhile, back in the holding cells, everyone was now more anxious than ever as Oscar hasn't been back in a while yet, and they were getting worried. Yang began to keep on staring at Blake with anger and heartbreak in her eyes. Blake had stopped crying by then, but the pain and guilt she carried were still lingering there.
"Ok, that's it!" Qrow said as he then got out Harbinger. "I'm sick and tired of this!" He said. "I'm getting out of here right now!" He said as he then got it out and tried many times to slash up the cage, and while he was leaving some dent in it…it was proving effortless as the cage was very durable. "Dammit!" He exclaimed as he then threw the weapon down on the ground in anger. "This isn't working!"
Ren looked at everyone around him. Nora was still snuggled up with him, Yang was not talking to anybody, Blake was…well being silent as well, and Weiss was just sitting down with her arms wrapped around her body. He could feel everybody's negativity rising, and he had to do something about it.
"Everybody!" Ren said, getting everyone's attention (sorta) "I know, this is snot what we were expecting..and everyone is scared, but as long as we all keep our heads together…we can figure out a way out of here. But for the time being, we need to believe in Ruby, Jaune, and Sun to get us all out of here."
"Oh? And you think that will be easy?" Everyone turned to see Xigbar and Luxord right at the cell, all of the heroes glaring at the organization members with pure fury. "That's so touching, I feel like it's going to make me cry." The sharpshooter mocked.
"Just wait," Nora said as she got her face close to his in the cell. "They will come and rescue us! I believe in them!"
Luxord sighed. "All you can do, little lady, is leave it up to fate."
Nora glared at him once again. "Where's Oscar?" She asked him.
Xigbar raised an eyebrow. "You mean the little farm boy? He is doing just fine, really fine….but if you ask me. Why worry about him? After all he is the one who is leading you all astray." He said.
"The hell do you mean?" Yang asked in a dark tone. Xigbar and Luxord took notice of her glare and both smirked a bit.
"You will find out soon enough," Luxord said to her. "We can assure you of that." He said as he saw a little dark mist radiating off of Yang. "All is going according to plan." He thought with interest in his voice.
World Lane
After saving Agrabah. The Travelers of Light were now on route to their next destination. On their way, Jaune was thinking about the Genie. He felt a bit angry, if the genie was still..well, a genie, he possibly could have wished for Pyrrha to come back to life, or wished that all of the friends who were captured were with them right now, maybe even wished for all the Grimm in Remnant to go away forever!
Of course, he was not mad at Genie for this, he was just upset about the whole situation.
"Guys, we need to eat." Goofy said as Sora put the ship on Auto-Pilot and they all sat down at a table that popped up and food consisting of burgers, fries, and hot dogs were present. As they were all eating, Sora had a question.
"Hey guys," Sun asked. "If Genie was with you, and you had three wishes, what would they be?" He asked.
Donald smiled and smiled smugly. "I would wish to be the best mage in Disney Castle, wish for lots of money, and wish for Daisy's heart." He said.
"Uh, Donald," Goofy said. "Isn't Daisy already your sweetheart?"
Donald then blushed out of embarrassment. "Oh…right." He said, making everyone laugh a bit.
Goofy smiled. "Well, I don't think I need any wish, I got everything I want, traveling with all my best buddies, including my Maxie."
"Dad!" Max moaned. "You're embarrassing me!" This brought chuckles from everyone as well.
Sun smiled. "Well, I…uh…well…" He was struggling to find the right words, what would he wish for? While it was true that he had a crush on Blake since he helped her put in Menagerie…Menagerie…yes. "I think I would only have one wish…a wish for all Faunus to be treated equally and not as subspecies." Those words made everyone feel a bit, to Ruby and Jaune, felt pride in him for saying that, but the others were just as heartbroken.
"I guess the Faunus aren't treated well?" Oswald asked.
Sun shook his head. "No, we aren't, and the discrimination we get has led any of us to join a terrorist group called the White Fang…they were once a peaceful group…but over the years…they became violent and angry…" The memories of the attack on Menagerie and Haven still linger in his mind, making his hands shake a bit.
But he felt a soft furry hand caress him and he looked to see Ortenisa giving him a soft smile. Sun then smiled back as everyone patted his shoulder and/or back.
"I don't really want to wish for anything, I got my lovely wife right here, and all of our kids back at home who are being watched." He said as he nuzzled Orrtensia who giggled.
"Same for me," the cat said. "I got my Honey Bunny with me and that's all that matters, as well as my kids." She said as she kissed him on the cheek.
"Well, I do have a wish, and that's my secret," Ma said, trying to act cool.
"Oh, is it for you to marry that nice Roxanne girl?" Goofy asked suddenly, which made everyone gasp a bit and for Max to blush out of embarrassment. Goofy however looked confused. "What is something I said?" This made everybody sigh a bit, with MAx simply putting his hands in his face and shaking his head.
Stitch looked into his burger and sighed. "I wish…to see Lilo again." He said with a solemn voice. "Lilo was…my best friend….and then one day she left…haven't seen her in a long time." He said, a tear running down his cheek at the memory of his friend.
Ruby then wrapped her arms around the little alien and hugged him tightly. "Was she your caretaker?" She asked in a soft voice, making the alien nod his head in sadness. "I'm sure wherever she is, she loves you very much." she said to him.
Stitch sniffled and wiped his eyes with his hand. "Do…you have someone you wish for?" He asked.
Ruby looked at him and everyone else. "Yea…I would wish for my mom." She said, "She was the best, whether being a Huntress or baking the best cookies ever…she was just so awesome….I wished he was here to see me now, see the amazing people I met…and everything else going on." She then had a tear go down her face at the memory of her mother Summer in her mind. "Maybe..she would help us find the others as well." She said as well.
This prompted everyone present to go over and wrap their arms around Ruby, giving her one big group hug. Ruby looked around and sniffled some more and gave a sad smile, aside from her team, this team was her best friend in the world.
Jaune would have said what he wished for, but he didn't want to bother the group with his worries, it was his problem…his burden to deal with Pyrrha's death, not there. He doesn't want to drag them into it.
"Sora, we are coming up on the newest world!" Chip's voice said as this prompted the group to let go of eachother and go to see what was going on. They all looked out to see the world that was appearing towards them, it appeared to resemble a large Jack-O-Lantern with one area looking dark at the bottom, and one looking rather merry and bright on the top.
"Wait…you don't think?" Donald said.
"Halloween Town!" Sora said with glee in his voice, this prompted some of the others to look confused, and Sora took notice. "Oh right…well…just listen, when we get there….well…you might be surprised." He said as he took the controls and they all made their way toward the word in question.
"So does this mean we aren't going to finish our food?" Jaune asked.
Halloween Town/Graveyard
The group had finally made it to the new world, and there were some…rather bright changes to their appearances. Sora now resembled a vampire with his entire outfit being all faded black leather. The shoulders were gray and he had short bat-like wings on his upper back. His legs are shown to be wrapped in what appeared to be red and black bandages, with his shoes being large, black, and pointed-toed. Around his eyes were a bit dark and ashy, hsi hair was a darker shade of brown, and he was wearing white lace gloves and a jack-o-lantern mask that covered his left eye.
Donald was shown to be wrapped in mummy-like bandages all over his body (sans his beak and feet. There was also a gap between his stomach and waist that revealed that there was nothing in them, with a similar gap shown on his right elbow and wrist. His eyes had thick black lines under them, resembling eyeliner.
Goofy was shown to be wearing a faded outfit consisting of a turtleneck sweater, a yellow tattered, patched jacket, green pants that were shown to be tattered as well, that was also with long suspenders, and brown shoes that were ripped at the bottom, exposing his long sharp toes. His ears were still floppy but much thinner, he had an enormous screw in the top of his head, and his nose was metallic with the end having a mini jack-o-lantern. And his eyes were heterochromatic, with his left eye being red and the right eye being gray and the types were spirals as well.
Ruby was shown to resemble a Grimm. Her whole body was all chalky white with black veins on her arms and face, her eyes gave off an eerie red, and her hair was ashy black. Her clothes were shown to be torn and her cape tattered, her hands were beast-like and had long claws on them, with her canines showing.
Jaune was shown to be a zombie, with his skin being gray, and his face looking very pale as well. His hair was snow white and most of it was missing, leaving only long pieces of it hanging on the sides of his head, his armor was broken in different areas, especially around the stomach, which exposed some of his rib cages to others. His boots were now damaged, with his toes sticking out, and his hoodie and jeans were ripped and looking very old as well. His sword seems to be chipped a bit as well as his shield, with the colors looking faded
Sun was shown to be something that resembled Frankenstein's Monster. His face was shown to be in stitches, with his hair being gray and faded, his upper body is covered at stitches as well, his left arm was replaced by a monkey's arm with it stitched on, and his shoes were gone, exposing his feet
Oswald was shown to be a zombie rabbit, with his body looking ashy and decayed a bit, with his ribcage showing and a notch on his left ear.
Ortenisa was shown to be a zombie cat with her bow torn up, her tail having a notch on it, and her fur looking ashy and decayed as well
Max was shown to be a wolf-like creature, with his body covered in shaggy ashy hair, his clothes were torn up, his shoes were now gone and only his big hairy feet were shown with hsi long claws.
And finally, Stitch was shown to be undead, with his corpse-like appearance.
Sora, Donald, and Goofy smiled at being in their monster-like appearance again, but the others? Well….
"AAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!" The others not familiar screamed at the sight of each other and backed up slowly, but then after a few minutes of looking at each other, they all looked shocked. "OH MY GOD, WE'RE MONSTERS!" They all shouted in a fight.
"Yea, and you all look good!" Sora said with a grin, everyone looked at him and was shocked.
"W-what? How? Why?" Sun asked as he looked at himself.
Sora smiled. "Well, this is Halloween Town, and everyone here are monsters." He said with a grin. "But don't worry everyone here is also very nice, trust me."
"But…we look-"
"Don't worry Ruby," Goofy said as he patted her shoulder calmly. "We were shocked as well, the last time we came here, there's nothing to worry about."
"Nothing to worry about?" Sun asked. "Did that large bolt go right in your brain? I look like something out of an old horror movie!"
"Guys!" Sora said to the ones who were not as happy with their transformations. "I know you're terrified of this right now, but trust me, you will all get used to it. And despite what you look like, you all look pretty awesome."
When he said that, it made the others think it over and form looking at each other… and to be honest, it really wasn't as bad as they thought.
"I always wondered how I would look as a Grimm," Ruby muttered as she looked at her arms.
"You look beautiful even as a Grimm, Ruby." Jaune said with a smile, but then he realized what he said and slightly turned his gaze away, blushing. And he wasn't the only one as Ruby turned her head and blushed too at his compliment,
"Oswald, do you still think I look beautiful?" Ortenisa asked as she looked at herself, not feeling at all like herself. Especially feeling a bit upset at seeing her bow all tattered
Oswald then clasped her hands with his. "Ortensia, there is nothing prettier in the world than you, and even if you are a zombie, you are the most beautiful zombie I know and love." He said to her,
Ortensia, who was at first feeling a bit upset, saw the truth and determination in his eyes and smiled a bit, despite a tear going down. "You always know the right words to cheer me up, don't you?" she asked, making him smile and nod his head.
"Hey guys," Sun said. "Do you notice that we move kinda…funny? Like something out of a flipbook?" He asked. And…well..this actualy made them ponder a bit, it was just like back in the Caribbean too..they felt kinda…off. But they then shrugged their shoulders and ignored it.
"So…uh..what world is this again?" Jaune asked, still a bit unnerved by his appearance but now no longer minding it…as much of course.
Sora smiled. "Halloween Town!" He said with a grin.
The Remnant teen looked confused. "Halloween?" They asked in unison. Halloween? What was that? Sora and the others looked at them with raised eyebrows.
"Your world doesn't have Halloween?" Max asked with confusion, making the teens from Remnant shake their heads. "Oh man, it's a really cool holiday! Where you can dress up in costumes, go out and get candy!"
When he mentioned that, Ruby, Jaune, and Sun then looked surprised and imagined them and all of their teams getting dressed up and getting candy. "Sounds cool! Why doesn't Remnant have that?" Sun asked with a frown.
"I? Know right?" Jaune said. But then, he saw something come up to them all, when the figure got close, it looked like a small dog…well, a ghost dog to be more exact. He resembled a white sheet that had a basset-hound look, his ears were floppy, his eyes were basically empty holes, and had a very long snout with a small jack-o-lantern as his nose. This was Zero, a ghost dog. "Uh..guys?" Jaune said, getting her attention as the ghost dog approached them all.
"Hey, Zero!" Sora said as the ghost dog nuzzled into the keyblade wielder, as well as the duck mage and dog knight. "How have you been, boy?" He asked.
"*Bark Bark*" Zero responded as he then flew around Ruby and the newcomers, nuzzling them as well.
"Awe, what a cute dog, oh yes you are." Ruby and Ortensia said in babyish voices as they happily petted him, even though they couldn't feel him due to him being a ghost, he still felt it and loved it.
"Wow…" Jaune said in amusement as he petted Zero.
Sun petted the dog as well before sighing. "You know what? I'm not even going to question things anymore." He said with a slight chuckle and the others agreed. Stitch was eying the ghost dog with caution, not really too fond of dogs, especially since there was an incident a long time ago where a dog sniffed…well…when Zero got too close, Stitch glared and growled.
"Stitch, be nice!" Ruby sternly told him. But the ghost dog didn't seem to mind as he barked again and flew right to where the main town would be, he turned back, barked, and flew off again.
"I think he wants us to follow him," Max said, and everyone agreed.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" Jaune said. "Follow that ghost dog!" He said as he and the others ran off to follow him.
Town Square
Sora and the others followed the ghost dog to the main [art of town, where much to their surprise there was a large assortment of monsters gathered around a large fountain. And the monsters varied, as there was one with snakes or fingers with spiders in his hair, a trio of vampires, some sea creatures, and two witches…but there were tons more.
Ruby was a bit nervous at seeing the variety of monsters and so were the others as well, never had they seen anything like this before in their lives! And of course, they already met some weird creatures during their travels with Sora…but still!
But that wasn't all though, the whole place was also decorated like it was the holiday season…what was going on?
"What's going on here?" Sora asked as the others shrugged their shoulders.
"Attention everybody!" They all turned to see a figure called for everyone's attention. The figure was a short, cone-shaped man whose face was peach-colored with rosy cheeks and a smile. He wore a black suit with a white undershirt and black-and-white pinstripe pants. He also wore a pendant that looked like a spider on his tie, a red button that read 'MAYOR', and carried a short megaphone. This was the Mayor of Halloween Town. "Everyone, I like to give a big round of applause to Jack, for attempting to give Christmas another go!" He said as every monster cheered and applauded.
"Look!" Donald said as he and the others all looked up in the sky to see a unique sight, it looked like a sleigh being carried by 8 skeletons, reminding-SKELETON REINDEER?! This is what the ones familiar with Christmas thought as their eyes went wide and their jaws dropped to the ground. And the one riding the sleigh? Well.
As the sleigh pulled onto the square a figure jumped right off of it. He was a thin, tall skeleton wearing a macabre black suit with white pinstripes, the top has a single button and a white shirt underneath, black shoes, and his coattails reached to his knees. And he had on a bow that resembled a bat with several white veins on its wings. This figure was Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King.
"Jack Skellington!" Sora, Donald, and Goofy said with big smiles on their faces, and the clothes were surprising as well, so what was Jack? Never in their lives did they meet a talking skeleton before! This was….was….amazing!
"Thank you, my friends! "Jack said, getting the town's attention. "I know the last time we tried this, things didn't end up….so good. But I have the full confidence that we can do Christmas again and make sure it goes right this time!" He said, making the whole town erupted in cheers. Sora and the others were a bit confused. Jack was the ruler of Halloween, and the name was in the town….so why is he promoting Christmas? It didn't make any sense.
Jack then smiled and then he turned his attention to the back of the crowd, and when he saw some familiar faces, his eye holes widened and his smile grew. "Sora, Donald, Goofy!" He exclaimed, making every monster turn to face the mentioned trio as well as their companions. This made the group slightly nervous, Sora especially since he doesn't remember seeing any of these monsters the last time they were in Halloween Town. "Welcome back, and Merry Christmas!" He exclaimed, making all the other monsters cheer.
The group ended their nervousness for a moment to approach Jack. "Merry Christmas?" Sora asked. "Don't you mean Happy Halloween?" He asked.
Jack then nodded. "Well of course! Halloween greetings from all of us here in Halloween Town, right?" He asked the citizens, who all cheered or made growls and noises. "And a Halloween greeting from Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King!" He said as he made a scary face at them, making some cringe a bit. But his face then softened. "Please forgive me, all of us, including me, are in very Christmas moods. You see, I have decided to participate in the show again this year, but I need Sandy Claws's blessing first. So I am heading off to Christmas Town!"
The monsters cheered again at the skeleton, but the heroes were confused though. Sandy Claws? Who was he talking about?
"Hey guys," Max said. "I think he's talking about Santa Claus." He said to them, making them all go wide-eyed. Meanwhile, Jack had the monsters and other inhabitants clear out as he went over to Sora and the others. "So Sora, I recognize you, Donald, and Goofy, but who are these new folk?"
Sora then smiled. Oh yea, this is Jaune, Ruby, Sun, Oswald, Ortensia, Stitch, and Max. Guys. This is Jack Skellington." Jack smiled and bowed like a gentleman and greeted them all, and despite being a bit intimidated (and a bit frightened due to him being a literal WALKING SKELETON) They all smiled and greeted him as well.
"So…Jack?" Ruby asked. "What exactly is Christmas?" She asked. And this made the skeletons' eye holes go wide.
"You never heard of it?" He asked with shock. The teens from Remnant meekly shook their heads no. This was not Remnant, and they don't remember having anything like that in their home. But then the skeleton's eyes winded and he smiled. "Well I got lots to tell you about, but fear not all questions shall be answered once we get to Christmas Town! But first, we must see Sally, she is making something for me." He said as he then made his way to a large- odd shaped building. "If all of you would be kind enough to follow me!" He said to them,
This made the others look at him confused, but shrug their shoulders and follow him to the place.

Dr. Finklestein's Lab
Inside this lab was a frail-looking old man at a desk working on something. He had very thin limbs, but his head was massive and had some bolts on it. He wore a white lab coat with buttons on the right side and small black beady eyes that were mostly covered by black goggles. He also wore black gloves that went up to the majority of his arms, white pants, and black shoes, and his mouth was all beak-like. As well as his skin looks sickly white as well. This was Dr. Finkelstein, Halloween Town's resident doctor/scientist/inventor. And he didn't look too happy, to say the least.
Standing nearby him was a woman who was basically a living ragdoll, given that her body was mostly covered in seams and stitches. The stitches covering her body were on her wrist, a few on her legs and arms, several on her upper chest, one on her neck, one on the top of her head, and one on each corner of her mouth. Despite the stitches, she had long red hair, red lipstick, and red nail polish on her fingers, long eyelashes, and black shoes that covered her feet that were covered by long socks. Her attire on her upper body was basically a torn, tattered dress that was made up of different cloth moved together. This was Sally, Dr. Finkelstein's creation/assistant. Well….the assistant part…not that much since she tends to sneak out.
"Sally!" Jack said with a grin as he went over to her. Sally then saw him and gave a small smile.
"Oh, Jack, hi." She said with a somewhat timid voice. Now Sally was not afraid of him per say, in fact…she and he were together even! Evident when he gave her a kiss on the cheek, making her blush. When she saw Sora, she smiled. "Sora! Donald, Goofy!"
"Hey, Sally!" Donald said as he and the others waved. The ones not familiar with the world looked at her with raised eyebrows.
"Is she…a ragdoll?" Jaune asked.
"I think so?" Ortneisa said, not really knowing what to say. And Sora introduced them all to Sally as well, and she smiled and they did as well.
"Yes, yes, yes, nice to see you all I guess," said Dr. Finklestein, who was still at his desk. Inspecting something. "Great…just great."
Jack then went over and frowned. "What's wrong Doctor?"
"Oh, those three brats messed everything up….AGAIN!" He suddenly screamed. "Now I need to start all over from scratch!" He moaned as he then opened up his head and scratched his exposed brain, making Ruby and Ortensia slightly gag and the others look creeped out.
"Don't worry Doctor, I'm sure everything will turn out amazing as usual, oh Sally, have you finished it yet?" He asked.
The ragdoll looked upset. "Oh, I'm sorry Jack..I still need more time to finish it." She said to him,
Jack frowned a bit, hoping that the suit would be up and ready for wearing….but alas, he still smiled at her. "Fear not, I bet it will look amazing once it;s done." The compliment made her blush a bit.
"Oh Jack…" Sally said with a smile.
*ALARM NOISE*
Everybody looked to hear a noise going off, which sounded like an alarm, making Jack tense up a bit. "The town alarm? What's going on?" He asked.
Sora then tensed up too. "Heartless." He said as he turned to his team and they all nodded their heads. "Guys, are you ready for some action?" He asked.
"YEA!" they said in unison. Jack then looked ready as well.
"Worry not friends, I shall assist you." He said as they all made their way to go investigate, with Sally looking with concern.
"Jack, you and everybody be careful." She said, she then turned to face the costume she was working on. "I still don't think this is such a good idea…" She thought.
Town Square
The residents were all running from the Heartless. And these ones were different. These Heartless resembled mummies, with their grayish-blue bodies wrapped up in white gauze, but their heads were not, leaving behind a gap that revealed their yellow eyes. They had one long angular spiraled antenna on their heads. Their rib cages were exposed and consisted of six barbed wires that also showed the Heartless emblem on it. These were called the Wight Knight, a type of Emblem Heartless.
These Heartless, as well as some regular Knights were causing havoc, with the Mayor trying his hardest to keep things calm.
"N-now here this you…you things!" He said over the microphone. "Leave Halloween Town at once, by order of the mayor!" But the Heartless didn't seem to listen as a Knight then immediately kicked the microphone out of his hands, making the short man quiver. "JACK I'M ONLY AN ELECTED OFFICIAL!" He yelled.
"FIRE RAID!" A keyblade on fire came and hit the Knight threatening the mayor, everyone turned to see Jack, Sora, and the rest, armed to the teeth.
"Mayor!" Jack said. "You and the others get to safety, and my friends here will handle these foes!" He didn't need to sell them twice as the citizens and the mayor quickly ran off to hide, leaving the heroes to face a swarm of Heartless. "Friends, are you ready?" He asked.
"YEA!" They all shouted and jumped right into the action.
Sora dodged out of the way when a Wry Knight attempted to slash him with his claws, and he was able to stab it right in the emblem. He then shot a large ice spell at a few Knights, causing them to freeze right up.
Donald and Ortensia were now working like a team, with their magic combined, they were able to do a large amount of damage to a majority of Heartless around the area.
Goofy and Max ran together and nodded. "Read dad?" Max asked.
"Go for it Max!" He said as he stuck his shield out and Max jumped on it. "Go get them!" He said as Max then launched himself in the air, and with a mighty swing, he threw his sword to the ground, stabbing it and sending a shockwave that knocked the Heartless away.
Jaune stabbed a Wight Knight in the stomach, and he used his shield to block an attack from it and one Knight, he used his shield to push them into the nearby guillotine and when they dropped something went off and the large device hit them, splitting them up and killing them.
Ruby used Crescent Rose to slice all the Knights in half, she then used her sniper to fire off several fire Dust rounds at them as well, burning them all to ashes. "Oh yea, feel the might of the terrifying Ruby Rose!" She said with a cheer.
Sun (who earlier saw Jaunes assault with the Heartless) used his staff to knock many of them into the guillotine, slicing off their heads. The sign made the Sun cringe a bit though. "Ok, a bit overkill, but at least there's no blood." He said as he then dodged a kick from a Knight and he shot it's head right off with his gun chuck.
Oswald then jumped on a Wight Knight's back, and as another was about to hit him, he immediately jumped off, causing the one Wight Knight to hit the other one, cutting its head right off. Then when Oswald jumped, he fired off a Fire Spell at the other Wight Knight, burning it to ashes.
Stitch had his blasters out and began to fire at any Heartless he saw, but as usual for him, he kinda got into it and began firing off away, and some of the blasts went to many different places, one of them even nearly hit Jack, who narrowly dodged.
"Woah!" Jack said. "Careful there, my little blue friend, you almost hit me!"
Stitch gulped and blushed out of embarrassment. "Sorry!" He called out.
Now Jack was face to face with them all and glared. "I thought you could be good for Halloween, but you all worked with Oogie and tried to take over Halloween Town, and you're all getting out, right now!" He said. Now Hiel JAck did not possess a weapon, but he was an expert in the art of magic. "BLAZING FURY!" He said as he then got coated in flames and chased after the Heartless, all of them getting burned up to ashes, and killing them all on contact.
10 Minutes Later
All the Heartless were defeated by the heroes. "Good work friends!" Jack said with a grin. "You all did fantastically!"
"You were amazing Jack!" Ortenisa said with a smile. "How did you learn that fire spell?" She asked him. Jack then pondered her question.
"I have no idea, It just came to me." He said, shrugging his shoulders.
"So. Now what do we do?" Son asked.
This made Jack smile. "Well, since I need permission, I think it's time that we head off to Christmas Town! Besides, with these Heartless, I want to make sure that Sandy Claws is safe."
At the mere mention of Christmas and Sandy…Claws? Shouldn't it be Santa Clause? Well, whatever, basically the two names made Sora, Max, Stitch, and a few others eyes gleam like lights. "Alright! What are we waiting for? Let's go!" They said as they made a head start out of town.
The others were left bewildered for a moment. "Uh…I was going to mention that we need to get there through the forest." Jack said.
"Why the forest?" Donald asked.
"That's where we will find the way to Christmas Town, you'll see!" He said." the others shrugged their shoulders and took off for the world mentioned.
Forest
Meanwhile, there were three young kids riding in what appeared to be a bathtub with legs. One of them was a boy with a slender figure wearing a devil costume, the other was a girl who was wearing a witch costume, and finally another boy wearing a skeleton costume.
These kids were Lock, Shock, and Barrel; three young pranksters who were once Oogie Boogie's little henchmen. These three tried to help Oogie in taking over Halloween Town and defeat Sora and Jack last time, but ever since he was beaten, the three of them worked for Dr. Finkelstein…unfortunately they are as rowdy as ever as they messed up the doctor's experiment.
"I say we dump a bucket of caterpillars on it!" Shock said.
"No, no, a bunch of roaches!" Barrel said. As they were pondering, the tub stopped for a moment, making the kids confused. "Hey, what the?" He and the other town turned to see a familiar figure. "Who is that?" Barrel asked.
Lock scoffed. "Some old hag, possibly."
Maleficent narrowed her eyes at the pranksters. "Old?" She asked as she then conjured green flames around her body. This act alone made the three kids hold each other and tremble with fright. "You little brats got any other
"Wait, we're sorry, no I'm sorry. I didn't mean to-" Lock stammered, trying his hardest to apologize.
"Please don't hurt us!" Shock begged.
"We're just kids!" Barrel exclaimed.
Maleficent glared at the kids some more, but then after looking at them for a brief moment, her flames had disappeared. "Hmm, you three look useful." She said, "Now if you three want to live….you better do as I say."
"Y-yes ma'am!" The three kids sat in unison as the evil fairy smirked evilly.
And we're going to stop there folks, so that was the introduction to Halloween town, I hope you liked it :)
Sorry if the fight scenes with the Heartless seem so dull and boring, it's just a bit hard to write fight scenes… especially for a bunch of mooks. So again I apologize.
So I'd do a poll a bit some time ago on who to pair Ben with in the upcoming RWBY/Ben 10 Crossover…and you all voted and Ben's love interest? It will be the adorable rabbit Faunus, VELVET SCARLATINA! (*Cheers and Applause*)
As mentioned above, I got a crossover Idea in the world, but it's all still in the planning stages. I'm just planning on focusing on the Thai story for the time being and if I wish for another one….well I'll need to think it over, but for now, this is the one I'm focusing on.
Anyways, please don't forget to read and review. I'm always happy to hear from you guys and happy to answer any questions you have for me.
See you all next time as our heroes go and explore Christmas Town!
