And now we find out more about Cassim, as well as the most funniest part in this movie.
Enjoy!
Outside the Forty Thieves Lair:
Deep in the sea outside the laier, the waves moved back and forth. Then out of nowhere, a body emerged from the water gasping for air. It was none other than Sa'luk. He had survived the fall, but was soaked and furious from his defeat. He stepped onto shore.
"Those wretched vermin." he sneered.
"Well, looks like someone's in a foul mood."
Sa'luk turned around and saw Xigbar standing behind him.
"Well why shouldn't I be?" he huffed. "You failed to mention that those world-travelers you, Maleficent, and the Organization told us about were here!"
"To be honest, I thought you could handle it." said Xigbar. "But that doesn't mean you still can't. You still got good control over the Heartless."
Sa'luk smirked. "You got that right, Xigbar. And once I get rid of Cassim, his brat of a son, and those Keybearers, us thieves will rule all of Agrabah, all of its valuables belonging to us." he said sinisterly.
Xigbar chuckled. "Keep planning like that and you'll be able to accomplish what Jafar couldn't." he mused. "Just be sure you're careful."
"About what?" the thief asked, quirking an eyebrow.
"Give into the darkness too much, you'll be a target for the Heartless." said Xigbar. "Unless you learn how to handle it, I'd be careful if I were you."
Sa'luk laughed. "Oh I am careful. Being one of the Forty Thieves, I was able to avoid capture for quite some time. I can handle those Heartless and whatever those brats try to throw my way." he boasted. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'd better be heading back to Agrabah. The King of Thieves will pay for his treachery. First, I'll turn the rest of the Forty Thieves against him. And then, I will steal the ultimate treasure, the treasure we've sought for so long. And then, I will end his son's life."
Sa'luk then walked away with a determined evil grin on his face.
Xigbar watched, amused.
"Good luck with that." he said quietly before teleporting away.
Forty Thieves' lair:
After the celebrations were over, Cassim took the time to take Sora, Aladdin, Riku, Lea, Isa, Myde, Goofy, Max, Abu, Iago, and Carpet down a dark tunnel for privacy. The group followed Cassim as he lit the path by carrying a torch, eager for him to give some explanations.
"I find my son, and lose my enemy. You did your old man proud, Aladdin." Cassim smiled as he faced Aladdin.
"I was just trying to stay alive." Aladdin responded with a glare as they crossed over a river.
Cassim laughed. "Ha! If you didn't fight, you would and your friends would have been killed. So says the code of the Forty Thieves."
"Does said code involve rules about not having fights end in death?" asked Lea, raising an eyebrow.
Cassim shrugged as he stopped in front of a stone wall covered in markings. "It's a strict code. But there's one thing that I added. We never hurt the innocent."
"For future reference, I'm as innocent as the day I was hatched." Iago said with a clearly forced innocent smile.
Ther group rolled their eyes.
"Oh brother…" muttered Abu.
"Then what about all the Heartless that attacked the palace, huh?" Myde asked with a glare.
"Yeah, you do realize that the Heartless could've killed us, right?" asked Riku.
"The Heartless were Sa'luk's doing." replied Cassim. "He was the one who brought them into the Forty Thieves several months ago. And he was the only one who controlled them. To this day, I still don't know where he got them from."
Sora, Riku, Lea, Goofy, Max, Isa, and Myde exchanged glances.
"We have a pretty good idea." said Sora.
"Oh really?" asked Cassim.
"Sa'luk may have been working for an enemy of ours named Xehanort." said Isa.
Cassim looked taken aback.
"Given how ruthless he was like Jafar, I think that would've been the case too." nodded Riku.
"In any case, with Sa'luk gone, there's no reason for the Heartless to be around." said Cassim. Without another word, the King of Thieves pulled the gold broach off his cape and placed it into an identical carving in the wall. "My men don't even know about this place." he told them as the wall slid away to reveal a secret room.
Inside were personal items including treasure maps, spare robes, and large piles of his share of stolen goods that Iago was already eyeing. The walls were lined with torches and there was an open area that led to a large body of water.
"Ooh. Nice place." mused Myde.
"Nice. Secret room." mused Max.
"Why thank you." smiled Cassim. He then shut the door.
"So what's with being so discreet from your fellow thieves?" asked Lea.
"I will tell you." said Cassim. "Listen, there is a treasure. The Ultimate Treasure." he explained as he threw his torch into water, extinguishing it.
"How ultimate?" asked Goofy.
"Compared to this, a pharaoh's tomb is a pauper's grave. A sultan's fortune nothing but... lunch money!" Cassim, explained as he gestured to his large piles of gold.
Lea and Myde gave impressed whistles.
"Now that sounds like a big bundle." mused Riku.
"One that Scrooge, Donald, Louie, and Lena would love to get their hands on if they knew." added Lea, making his friends who knew the four ducks chuckle.
"And I am this close to it…" said Cassim.
"Ooh, how close are we talking?!" Iago asked excitedly.
"Tantalizingly close." Cassim replied as he walked over to his closet and pulled out a rug. "But it's on an island that is never in the same place twice. The Vanishing Isle."
"That... would be a problem." nodded Max.
"Yeah. Makes sense why you're having trouble finding it." said Myde.
"What is this Ultimate Treasure?" asked Aladdin.
"The big one, boy. The Hand of Midas." said Cassim.
"The Hand of Midas?" Sora asked curiously.
"An object that will turn any object into solid gold with a single touch." Cassim replied as he unravelled the carpet.
It was blue, marked with a large design of a turtle. In the middle of the turtle, there was a blue and yellow ring. Inside the ring, was a golden hand, the same hand as on Cassim's brooch and the Midas Dagger. Sora, Riku, Lea, Goofy, Max, Myde, Iago, Abu, Carpet, and even Isa were intrigued by the reveal of the ultimate treasure but Aladdin rolled his eyes.
"It's just a myth!" scoffed Aladdin.
"It's not a myth, boy!" snapped Cassim as he grabbed a torch and pulled aside a green curtain, revealing steps leading to the sea. Cassim then made his way down the stairs. The others followed suit. Cassim angled the torch to the water. A reflection of a golden ship appeared. "It was once right here, look, there's your proof! From stern to stem, every piece of rigging every peg and board, all of it! Solid gold! Touched by the Hand of Midas."
Abu and Iago gazed down in awe at the golden ship but Aladdin was anything but impressed.
"And sunk by it…" Aladdin muttered.
Cassim glared. "You don't understand. You don't know what it's like to have nothing. To stare up at the palace and know you deserve more." huffed as he Cassim throws the torch into the water. "To be called 'street rat'."
Aladdin cringed in discomfort as he remembered the unpleasant memories Cassim had unknowingly brought up. "Yes, I do." he muttered.
Sora decided to step in.
"He's right, Cassim. Aladdin knew what it was like. He did have to grow up on the streets after all." Sora told the King of Thieves.
Understanding what Sora was saying, Cassim sighed and began his explanation. "I knew exactly what I wanted for my family, the best. I couldn't give up and go back empty handed. But the weeks turned into months and the months turned into years... I came back to Agrabah one night, but I couldn't find my wife, or my son. I thought my family was lost forever. At that moment, I would have traded anything to get your mother back…" said Cassim as he placed a hand on Aladdin's shoulder.
Sora and Riku swore they saw a tear form in Cassim's eye. Everyone looked at him in sympathy.
"We never wanted gold... we wanted you." Aladdin said softly as he looked back at Cassim. "I wanted a father, I still do. Come to my wedding. This time, you have an invitation." he offered in an eager tone.
Everyone smiled at Aladdin's words.
Cassim shook his head. "Aladdin, I just don't know…"
Aladdin put his hand on Cassim's shoulder. "Dad, I'm not going back to Agrabah until morning. At least think about it?"
With that said, Sora, Aladdin, Riku, Goofy, Lea, Isa, Max, Myde, Abu, and Carpet left, leaving Iago with Cassim, the latter pondering in thought.
Back in Agrabah, Razoul was walking through the city streets, with his sword. As he walked along, he heard a voice.
"Captain, over here!"
Razoul pointed his sword at the individual who spoke. "Show yourself!" he demanded.
The person was none other than Sa'luk, leaning in a nearby doorway.
"You're alone, good." he mued.
Razoul approached Sa'luk. "So, you are the one with information about the Forty Thieves?" he asked.
"What would you say if I handed you the King of Thieves?" Sa'luk asked back.
"I'd say…" Razoul began as he put his sword away. "...what's in it for you?"
Sa'luk smirked. "I'll just sleep better knowing that he's off the streets... and on the executioner's block."
"Everyone knows that the King of Thieves cannot be caught." scoffed Razoul. "What miracle do you possess?"
Sa'luk walked closer to Rasoul. "Two words that will make you Agrabah's greatest hero - Open Sesame."
Razoul stared at Sa'luk with suspicious eyes.
Castle That Never Was:
In the Grey Area, Maleficent, Pete, and Mortimer were watching the events play out.
Maleficent wore a black-horned headdress on her head, a long, tattered black robe with a purple trim and maroon edges which flared out, and a golden ring with a circular black stone in it.
Pete wore what seemed to be armor colored in shades of blue and purple overtop a red, short-sleeved shirt with a vertical pink stripe descending from the neck. He wears navy blue and white sneakers with light blue fronts and two periwinkle straps keeping each one secure. His pants are also navy blue, with light blue lining, purple lower legs, and two enormous pouches on either front side. These pouches are attached to his pants by four pins, both sporting a silver, horizontal zipper. The most distinguishing feature of these pants is the comically large zipper going down the front and reaching around to the back side of the pants. He wears two navy blue pauldrons, each sporting two cyan bumps and a periwinkle area near on the lower section on each shoulder. Two gold buttons at the top of Pete's pants connect to two blue suspenders that intersect over his chest before connecting to two similar, albeit smaller buttons on his shoulder pauldrons. Pete also wears a pair of fingerless gauntlets. The wrists of these gauntlets are light blue with a pale yellow semi-circle on top, while the gloves are periwinkle with a bump on each knuckle. There is a dark blue-green design on the back of each glove, descending from each knuckle to the end of the glove.
Mortimer wore an outfit just like Pete's, only this time, the colors were opposite, similar to Chip and Dale's castle uniforms.
"So Xigbar was right. Sa'luk was more than eager to betray his fellow thieves." mused Pete.
"I'm not surprised." said Mortimer. "The guy is more ruthless and power-hungry than all other other thieves in that rag-tag group."
"Which is why he is a good ally to our side of darkness." said Maleficent. "Jafar may have failed before. But with Sa'luk's dark heart, we will have a chance of finally casting Agrabah into darkness once again."
"What about the rest of the 40 thieves?" asked Pete.
Maleficent smirked. "We'll just see what fate has in store for them." she replied.
Just then, Magica entered the room. She wore a long black dress with long black fingerless gloves and a long black cape with a hood attached to it that was magenta on the inside. She also had a magenta streak on both sides of her hair.
"Ah Magica." said Maleficent. "What brings you here?"
"Negaduck wanted me to let you know that he brought his fellow Fearsome Five members into our group." Magica replied.
"Nice." laughed Pete before forwining in confusion. "Which ones were they again?"
"The electric villain Megavolt, the toy-themed villain Quackerjack, the water villain Liquidator, and the plant villain Bushroot." Magica replied. "As ridiculous as they sound, they do have good potential."
"And any updates of those two agents that used to work for F.O.W.L.?" asked Maleficent.
Magica smirked. "Why yes. I tracked down Black Heron to her old hide-out. We're in the process of fixing her robot arm. As for Steelbeak, I busted him out of his cell in St. Canard." she replied.
"Excellent. Our army continues to grow." said Maleficent. "With that said, dismissed."
Nodding, Pete, Mortimer, and Magica walked out of the room as Maleficent vanished in a flash of green flames.
Agrabah:
The next morning, the group had met up with Cassim, who said he would join them on their journey back to Agrabah so he could be at Aladdin's wedding. But, he wasn't satisfied riding on Carpet , much to the magic rug's disappointment. Seeing that he wouldn't be satisfied on Carpet, Sora allowed Aladdin, Cassim, and Abu to ride on his glider. Cassim was hesitant, but Aladdin convinced him that Sora wouldn't let either of them get hurt. So with that said, they took their gliders back to Agrabah, with Iago and Carpet flying alongside them.
It wasn't long until they arrived back at the palace. The pavilion had been completely repaired with no evidence showing that it had been wrecked by the Heartless, Forty Thieves, and elephants.
"Whoa!" Myde exclaimed.
"Would you look at this place?" Riku said in awe.
"Did we come to the right place?! Where's all the destruction from yesterday?!" asked Lea.
Sora and Aladdins huckled.
"That's Genie for you." said Sora.
"Yep. He really knows how to clean up." Aladdin said in agreement.
"Yeah. Uh-huh." nodded Abu.
Cassim immediately looked interested. "Genie? You have a Genie? Have you used all three wishes yet?" he asked.
Iago rolled his eyes. "Oh, please, don't go into it. It's just too painful." he groaned.
Sora and Goofy gave Iago a look. "Exactly how is it painful that Aladdin used his third wish to free Genie?" Sora asked.
"He freed the Genie? Interesting choice." mused Cassim.
"He was held prisoner." said Goofy. "He mentioned that it was part of a gig.:"
"Well, good on you my boy." said Cassim, giving Aladdin a pat on the back, making the former street rat smile.
"Welcome back everyone!" came a familiar voice.
Everyone looked ahead and saw Kairi, Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Oswald, Ortensia, Roxas, Naminé, Xion, Terra, Aqua, and Ven run up to them. It had been Minnie who spoke.
"Hiya fellers!" greeted Goofy.
"It's great to see you again." said Riku.
"And it's nice to have you all back." said Mickey.
"Well you were gone for a while." said Aqua.
"Yeah, we were starting to get worried." said Daisy.
"Come on, when have we ever let you guys down?" asked Lea with a laugh.
"At least you guys made it back." said Donald.
And then out of nowhere, Genie appeared in a puff of red smoke in front of Aladdin with a big smile on his face. "Oh, Al! You're back! And you're front! You're both here!" Genie said happily as he hugged Aladdin.
"That's great Genie-" Aladdin began before Genie cut him off by covering his mouth as his expression turned serious.
"Security's tight! No big crowd, immediate family and closest friends only!" Genie told him.
"Perfect, because this is my-" Aladdin began again.
"No lowlifes this time, other than the parrot of course." said Genie, making Iago glare at him.
"While we were helping fix the pavilion, the Sultan told us that we could help with security." said Terra.
"So he's allowing us to have our Keyblades on us during the ceremony." said Kairi.
"That way, in case anyone tries to do anything, we'll be ready." said Xion.
"Sounds good!" said Sora.
"And if all else fails, we have Plan B!" said Genie.
Everyone traded glances.
"Plan B?" asked Goofy.
"I don't remember discussing that." said Ven, confused.
"What's Plan B?" asked Roxas.
"Observe." said Genie as he pulled out a remote and pushed a button.
From beneath the ground a few meters away from everyone, a panel opened up and a giant, very futuristic robot with Genie's face came up. It was armed with two laser cannons on both sides of its head, making everyone very uncomfortable.
"You have violated the perimeter of the Aladdin and Jasmine wedding; prepare to be vaporized, thank you." the robot said as fried it's lasers, making everyone duck just in time to avoid being vaporized.
"Uh…. isn't that a little too dangerous?" asked Aqua, feeling freaked out.
"Armed and dangerous." Genei confirmed as he turned to Aladdin. "I'd like to see one of those Forty Thieves get within an inch of your wedding."
"Allow me to introduce…" Iago smiled as he proudly gestured to Cassim.
"The King of Thieves." Cassim chuckled.
"AH!" Genie screamed in alarm as he pulled out a walkie-talkie. "All units, we have a code red!" he shouted.
Within seconds, several other Genies in SWAT uniforms came out of all the corners of the place, all of them chanting, "Code red!" Metal gates doors and gates shut in all the entrances, putting the palace on lockdown.
Sora, Riku, Kairi, Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Ven, Aqua, Terra, Roxas, Lea, Naminé, Xion, Isa, Myde, Minnie, Daisy, Max, Oswald and Ortensia were surprised at the scene while Cassim and Abu were confused. Aladdin and Iago just looked exasperated as the former rubbed the side of his head.
Some Genies appeared above and airmed their guns as some more jumped down the walls while holding onto rope.
Another Genie, dressed as a Scotsman, addressed several more Genies dressed in a similar way.
"Come on boys, follow me!" he shouted.
The Scottish-looking Genies then marched forwards, playing their bagpipes.
"Ugh, it's Mom, Uncle Scrooge, Aunt Matilda, Grandma, and Grandpa with their annoying bagpipes all over again." groaned Donald as he and his fellow travellers covered their ears in annoyance.
Down below, more Genies appeared dressed as cowboys. Their leader shuted, "Calvary commence!" They then charged forwards on their horses.
"Calvary's here." quipped Lea.
"Uh…" said Myde in confusion as he pointed up.
Everyone looked up and saw an army plane fly over them. Three Genies, dressed as army men, jumped out.
Genie 1: Geranimo!
Genie 2: Arapaho!
Genie 3: Navajo!
And then another one, dressed as Pocahontas, jumped out saying, "Pocahontas!"
"Ok…?" Max said in bewilderment, his expression matched by his friends.
More Genies appeared and they joined the rest in surrounding Cassim and Iago with their guns aimed right at them.
"Do not attempt to move, or we'll be shooting ourselves." said Genie.
Sora and Co. just stared in surprise.
"Genie!" Aladdin exclaimed as he tried to break through the Genies.
"Back off, Al! This creep has a yellow sheet as long as my arm!" said Genie, not taking his eyes off the King of Thieves.
"Genie, meet my dad." said Aladdin as he gestured to Cassim.
"WHAT?!" Mickey, Donald, Minnie, Daisy, Kairi, Roxas, Naminé, Xion, Terra, Aqua, Ven, Oswald, and Ortensia exclaimed together in shock, eyes wide and jaws dropped.
All the Genies stared, dumbfounded.
"Are you serious?" exclaimed Terra.
"Aladdin's dad is the King of Thieves?!" Mickey exclaimed.
"I did not see that coming." said Minnie, shocked.
"That's…" began Roxas.
"Unexpected." Donald and Daisy finished together.
Genie looked at his clothes. "Stand down men. Smoke 'em if you got 'em."
The other Genies disappeared and Genie was back to his normal attire as he approached Cassim with a dangerous look.
"If you're Al's dad, and the King of Thieves, I just wanna know one thing." Genie said darkly as he grabbed Cassim by his robe.
"Yeah?" Cassim asked, refusing to show any emotion.
Genie then turned into a waiter with a notebook and pen and asked, "Will you be having the chicken or the sea bass?" much to Cassim's confusion.
Kairi, Naminé, Xion, Aqua, Minnie, Daisy, and Ortensia giggled while Sora, Roxas, Ven, Goofy, Max, and Myde laughed, expecting nothing less from Genie.
"Genie sure got over that quickly." mused Lea.
"Took us a while before we got over the shock." nodded Riku.
"But he's the King of Thieves!" exclaimed Donald.
"We've spent time with him." said Sora.
"Seems ok to us." said Myde.
"I think we can give him a chance." said Daisy.
Donald sighed but nodded.
Aladdin laughed as he took Cassim's arm. "Come on, Dad. I can't wait for you to meet Jasmine and the Sultan." he told him.
Everyone else traded nervous glances.
"Aladdin, are you sure that's a good idea?" asked Naminé.
"She's right. Your dad is the King of Thieves after all." said Oswald.
"Yeah, don't you think we should lose the 'Agrabah's Most Wanted' look?" asked Genie as hhe pulled down a poster reading "Agrabah's Most Wanted" with Cassim's head in the place of the picture.
"What's wrong with the way I look?" Cassim asked in an offended tone as he shoved the poster away.
Aladdin shook his head. "When you're here, you're not the King of Thieves. You're my dad. All you need is a second chance." he told his dad.
"I've had more practice being the King of Thieves…" Cassim mumbled sadly.
Genie smiled at Cassim. "Oh, Come on, enough of this dark past. Let's roll out something a little new."
Genie waved his hands and a puff of sparkling smoke appeared around Cassim. When it cleared, it showed Cassim in a brand new attire. He was dressed in blue, red, black, and gold robes that looked like something someone in the royal family would wear. Even with his clothes changed, Cassim looked considerably different.
"There ya go!" said Goofy.
"You look great Cassim." said Sora.
"Yeah, you really do look like royalty now." said Xion.
"And as a father of the groom." added Minnie.
"Now we can introduce you to Jasmine and the Sultan." said Mickey.
"Come on Dad." said Aladdin. "I can't wait for you to meet them."
Cassim chuckled as they left for the throne room.
Throne Room:
Sora and Co. stood with Aladdin and Genie as Cassim stood in front of Jasmine and Sultan. He bowed to Jasmine.
"My boy Aladdin must have been born under a lucky star to find such a treasure." Cassim said with a smile as he stood up.
Jasmine smiled back. "You are most definitely Aladdin's father." she mused.
"I have the DNA to prove it." Genie said as a DNA strand appears in his hand, making Sora, Aladdin, and Co. chuckle.
"It must have been dreadful, trapped by the Forty Thieves!" Sultan said to Cassim as he walked up to him and Jasmine.
Everyone else cringed in fear.
"Uh oh…" mumbled Genie.
"Oh great…" muttered Lea.
"I try to block out the memories…" said Cassim.
"Say no more, not another word on the subject!" Sultan said in understanding, much to everyone's relief.
"Yes, let's turn our attention to happier thoughts. The blessed union of our children!" Cassim said happily as he picked the Sultan and hugged him.
"Indeed…" Sultan muttered, much to everyone's amusement.
"It worked guys! They love 'im!" Aladdin told his friends excitedly.
"Of course they do." said Sora.
Genie took off his scalp. "It's the hat. Nothing does the trick like a smart chapeau." Genie told them.
"Ah, back among civilized people, back among family…" they heard Cassim say.
"It's more than that. All he needed was a second chance." Aladdin said with a smile.
Outside the Palace:
With Cassim back, the wedding was back on. Sora and Co. had changed back into their attires and were currently doing a small patrol outside the palace.
"Everything seems good so far." said Ortensia.
"She's right. No Heartless in sight." nodded Naminé.
"So I guess we can get ready for the wedding." said Goofy.
"Hopefully there won't be any disruptions this time." said Terra.
"You all would like that, wouldn't you?" came a familiar snarky voice.
Everyone froze and turned towards the palace gates to see Xigbar emerge from a corridor of darkness.
"Xigbar!" exclaimed Sora as everyone galfred at the one-eyed Nobody.
"What the hell are you doing here?" demanded Riku.
"You got a lot of nerve to show up and try to ruin the wedding." added Kairi.
Xigbar chuckled. "Oh I'm not the one who's gonna ruin it." he replied smugly. "I just thought I would come by to tell you something."
"Like we're interested!" Donald sneered.
"Oh I think you would be." Xigbar smirked. "One would be that you should be careful about who you trust. Especially if you think you know them well."
"And why should we listen to you?" asked Ven with a glare.
"I'm just trying to warn you." Xigbar said as he raised his hands, although he still retained an evil look. "Well, I'd best be on my way. Have fun at the second wedding."
Xigbar opened up another corridor and walked towards it. He then stopped and addressed the Keyblade Masters again.
"Oh yeah. Almost forgot. Some opponents don't go down so easily." he told them.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Goofy asked, confused.
Xigbar chuckled. "All in due time, Captain. All in due time." he replied as he disappeared through the corridor, said portal disappearing.
"Did anyone understand what the heck that guy was saying?" asked Daisy.
"The Organization tries to mess with our minds all the time." said Lea.
"And Xigbar is one of the really peculiar ones." said Isa.
"Aw, I wouldn't worry about it fellas." said Mickey. "C'mon, we got a wedding to participate in!"
"I like the sound of that." said Sora.
With that said, they entered the palace.
Inside, they saw Aladdin, Jasmine, Abu, and Sultan in their attires as well. But there was no sign of Cassim or even Iago. And they all looked worried as Sultan was pacing back and forth.
"Oh, where could he be? I do hope nothing's wrong." muttered Sultan. "Perhaps we should dispatch a search party?"
Jasmine stopped her father's pacing.
"Now father, I'm sure he's... on his way." she told him, a little hesitant on the last part.
"Hey what's going on?" asked Lea.
"Dad didn't show up." said Aladdin, making Sora and Co. surprised.
"He didn't?" Oswald asked in surprise.
"But why wouldn't he be here for his own son's wedding?" asked Ortensia.
"Yeah, it doesn't make any sense." said Max.
"Where is he?" asked Aladdin.
Genie turned into Pumbaa.
"Hakuna Matata!" he said before turning back to normal. "Whoa... I was having an out of movie experience." he mused before turning to Aladdin. "My guess is he wants to make an entrance."
"After an hour?" asked Terra.
"I sincerely doubt that." said Riku.
"Do you think something is wrong?" asked Jasmine.
"That's a possibility." said Minnie.
"Genie, can you find him?" asked Aladdin.
"I'll sniff him out!" said Genie as he turned into a blue version of Pluto and began sniffing around.
"Okay…" said Max.
"That's Genie for ya son. A-hyuck!" chuckled Goofy.
"I need a scrap of his clothes or a lock of his hair…" Genie said as he smelled a shoe that was suddenly in his path. "Or shoe, a shoe's good...
Genie looked up and saw that the shoe was Cassim'sm making him gasp as he turned back to normal.
And it was Cassim, only he was handcuffed and being held by a smug-looking Razoul.
Everyone gasped.
"Huh?!" exclaimed Aladdin.
"Wait, what?!" exclaimed Lea.
"Cassim?!" asked Sora.
"What the hell?" asked Riku.
"Razoul, what is the meaning of this?" the Sultan demanded.
Razoul smirked as he pushed Cassim toward the Sultan. "Your majesty, meet the King of Thieves." he said triumphantly.
"Uh oh." gulped Goofy as he and his friends traded nervous glances.
"Oh shit." muttered Lea.
"We're dead." mumbled Myde.
"Dad!" exclaimed Aladdin as he tried to get to Cassim, only for the guards to hold him back. Cassim was surprised by his son's compassion.
"We seized him in the Treasury. He was after this…" said Razoul as he pulled out the oracle. "...again."
Everyone stared in disbelief. "No…" gasped Aladdin.
"Cassim, say it isn't so!" begged Donald.
Cassim said nothing as shame and guilt plastered his face, much to everyone's horror.
"And this is his accomplice." added Razoul.
One of the guards held up Iago, trapped in a cuff.
"Iago?!" gasped Goofy.
"You have got to be kidding me!" said Terra.
"Iago, what the hell were you thinking?!" snapped Sora.
"Big misunderstanding! It's a slap on the wrist and, uh, community service kinda thing!" Iago tried to hastily explain, only to receive disappointed looks.
Aladdin glared at his father. "Now I know why you really came back…" he muttered darkly.
Cassim hung his head in shame.
Jasmine and the Sultan looked at Aladdin with shocked expressions.
"Your father is the leader of the Forty Thieves?!" Sultan gasped.
"Aladdin, did you know?" Jasmine asked softly.
"I thought I could change him, I had to try!" Aladdin sighed.
"You can change my clothes Aladdin, you can't change who I am." Cassim said regretfully.
"But what about for your son?" asked Sora. "You were separated from him for so long."
"And after he finally got you back, you just go out and tried to steal that Oracle." Riku added.
"You said you wanted what was best for your family as to why you started stealing all those years ago." said Lea.
"Did you even think how this could affect your son?" asked Aqua. "You or Iago?"
Cassim and Iago could only look down in guilt. Sora, Riku, Lea, and Aqua were right.
"And the law is crystal clear on what we must now do!" Razoul said smugly, proud that he caught the King of Thieves.
Jasmine put her hand on Sultan's shoulder. "Father, isn't there another way?" she asked.
Sultan shook his head sadly. "I'm afraid there is not. Take the prisoners to the dungeon." he ordered, much to everyone's horror.
"Dungeon?!" gasped Iago.
"For life." Sultan added, increasing everyone's horror.
"Life?!" Iago gasped as a cuff was put over his beak.
Raozul and the guards led Cassim and Iago away.
Sora and Co. just stared in sadness. Mickey and Minnie then looked at Sultan.
"Was there really no other way?" Mickey asked his fellow royal.
"I'm afraid there wasn't." Sultan replied.
"You forgave Aladdin for what he did." reminded Minnie.
"Yes I did." nodded Sultan. "But his father committed many crimes for many years."
"For his family." Myde piped in.
"Sometimes that's not justifiable." Terra sighed.
"Still." said Sora sadly. "There's always another way."
Mickey turned to Sultan. "Sora's right." he said softly. "I know what Cassim and Iago did was wrong. But they are family. Iago did play a part in saving Jasmine and stopping Jafar."
"And Cassim just needed someone looking out for him." added Minnie. "Just please try to think about it. From one set of royals to another."
Sultan was silent for a moment. Then replied with a sigh, "I will think about it. But I wouldn't get your hopes up."
With that, he walked back inside the palace.
Aladdin hung his head sadly. Sora and Co. gave him sorry expressions as Genie tried to comfort him.
"There's some wishes that even I can't make come true…" Genie said sadly.
Castle That Never Was:
Maleficent had been watching the entire scene. Xigbar stood next to her.
"I did try to warn them." Xigbar said smugly. "So you think that's it for the King of Thieves?"
"I wouldn't say so Xigbar." Maleficent replied. "This is only the beginning of something else."
"Care to elaborate?" Xigbar asked.
Maleficent smirked. "The beginning of Agrabah's end." she replied. "Sa'luk's plan is going into action. Once the ultimate Treasure is his, the darkness on his heart will spread. And Agrabah will be finished."
To be continued…
Aladdin just found his dad, only for him and Iago to try and steal the Oracle and get arrested. But Sa'luk's plan is going into action.
The "Code Red" scene is the most funniest scene from this movie by far!
