And now the final chapter of this world. Enjoy!
"Are you guys ok?" Kairi asked as she, Aqua, and Minnie ran up to the three as they helped them stand.
"Yeah. Yeah, we're ok." said Sora before he and Mickey were wrapped in a hug by Donald and Goofy.
"Thank god for that!" exclaimed Donald.
"We're glad you're ok, fellers!" said Goofy.
"You're one of the craziest guys I ever met Sora." said Lea with a smirk.
"Thanks Lea." Sora smiled back.
"You were pretty brave too Milo." added Aqua.
Milo smiled sheepishly.
"Uh, thanks." Milo said as he rubbed the back of his head.
Suddenly, the ground started to shake violently. Everyone turned to the burning wreckage of the airship. Large, deep cracks began to form in the ground. Bursts of hot steam shot out. The entire cave began to tremble.
"What's happening?!" cried Naminé.
"The volcano!" Mole exclaimed in alarm as his eyes widened in fear. "She awakes!"
Donald quacked in alarm as he leaped into Goofy's arms.
"Oh no!" gasped Daisy.
"Not good!" cried Roxas.
"Hey, I had nothing to do with it." Vinny said while automatically holding a stick of dynamite, which to his alarm, was already set alight. He quickly out it the fuse with two fingers before it could explode.
"This here would be a good place not to be!" called Cookie.
"Cookie's right!" called Goofy. "We should skedaddle!"
"No wait! We've got to ger ger back or the whole city will die!" Milo proclaimed as he grabbed the remains of the chain that had connected the pod to the airship.
"And if we don't get out of here, we'll die!" Audrey pointed out.
"It's the only way to reverse this!" said Milo. "Just do it!"
Audrey tossed the chain to Vinny who moved it to the other side of his vehicle as Myde helped Sora, Mickey, and Milo onboard.
Soon, all the Altean airships were flying once again. As they flew off, the pod started to drag behind when suddenly, a loud crack was heard. Everyone turned and saw that the chain had broken free.
"No!" cried Sora.
"We gotta get it!" cried Milo.
Without hesitation, Sora and Milo hopped off despite the protests from Riku, Kairi, Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, and Audrey. The two quickly made their way to the pod as the cracks got wider and steam began to come out. They quickly picked up the chain and wrapped it around the pod.
"GO!" Milo yelled.
Sora and Milo hung onto the pod as the container was dragged away by Myde and Vinny's vehicle. Lava poured out of the cracks and began to flow behind them. Sora and Milo held on as they were carried down the passage. The fish-themed vessels soared out of the tunnel as fast as they could. They soon flew out of the tunnel just as the lava burst out, knocking away Mole's driller as it was sent over the cliff and into the river of lava below. Ansem and Xemnas had long since vanished from that area after regaining consciousness.
The sky overhead was still dark and there was no sign of any strong light around. Flying pieces of burning rock shot across the sky.
Soon, the vehicles landed down on the plaza near the edge of the city just outside the palace. The pad was dropped off and Sora and Milo jumped down from it. An Atlantean guard handed Milo a spear. Sora and Riku assisted Milo as well when another guard handed them each a spear. The three tried their best in breaking the pod. While it didn't cut upon, they didn't give up.
"The fissure… it is about to eject… its pyroclastic fury!" Mole cried out, pointing at the rock wall in the distance while jumping up and down in a frantic state. Plumes of lava were starting to pour out at a fast rate.
"Milo, Sora, Riku!" Sweet called. "Mole says the wall's going to blow!"
With a final desperate pull, Sora, Milo, and Riku managed to creak open one of the sides of the pod. It was enough for the Crystalized Kida to break free as the pod came apart. The trio took several steps back as the pods parts began to orbit around the Crystal, still glowing in the shape of Kida. After a few seconds, the pod's pieces floated away and the design of the plaza's ground started to light up.
Donald leaped into Goofy's arms in alarm.
"Whoa!" Sora, Roxas, Ven, Lea, and Max gasped.
"Would you look at that?" Mickey said in surprise.
"I wonder what's happening." said Aqua.
"Something big." Terra replied.
"Whatever it is, this light feels so… comforting." said Kairi.
"Hey yeah, Kairi's right. It feels so warm." said Naminé.
"And it looks so beautiful…" Ortensia said in awe.
The light flowing through the city vanished a moment later. Suddenly, the ground began to rumble a bit as a series of humongous stones crashed through the ground.
"What the hell?" Lea said in confusion.
"What's going on now?" asked Oswald.
Sora, Kairi, Mickey, and Minnie's eyes widened when they saw the rocks.
"They're just like the ones in the chamber!" exclaimed Minnie.
"The light on the stones is coming back!" exclaimed Mickey.
The Crystalized Kida and the circle of stones rose high into the air. Sora, Riku, Kairi, Mickey, Minnie, and Milo stared in awe. Donald, Goofy, and Myde gazed up in confusion. Ven, Terra, Aqua, Roxas, Lea, Naminé, Xion, Isa, Daisy, Max, Oswald, Ortensia, Audrey, Sweet, Vinny, Cookie, Mole, and Packard gazed up in curiosity. The stones started to spin around the Crystal, soon picking up the paste as they spun rapidly.
"Maybe that's what Kida remembered…" Kairi whispered in awe.
A beam of bluish-tinted Light suddenly shot out from the Crystal and zoomed across the sky. All eyes turned to where the beam was going. It struck a pointed object in the water. The object started to move before it rose. To everyone's amazement, it was a gigantic robotic man with bluish eyes that were glowing.
"What is that thing?" Donald asked.
"Some kind of weird statue." shrugged Ven.
The figure turned to its right and started to march to the edge of the plateau. Mrs. Packard was standing a little bit behind with a camera and tripod set up, taking pictures of this amazing event.
Several more beams of bluish light flew across the sky which struck more figures who were identical to the first one. The figures each walked to the edge of the plateau. They stood as though they were soldiers stationed on guard duty. The city was surrounded by the figures forming an enormous circle. The lava started to burst out of the rocky wall, while everyone wondered what the stone giants were going to do.
Then one of the gigantic figures reached out and clapped its hands. One by one, all the other giants did the same. When they retracted their hands, a magical blue wall appeared before each of them. The walls grew rapidly. When a blazing piece of rock from the lava struck a wall, it disintegrated.
"They're creating a barrier to protect the city!" Terra said in realization.
"So that's how Atlantis didn't fully drown in the first place!" Xion said in stunned awe.
"That's what King Kashekim meant when he said the Crystal offered protection to the city and its people. With the heart of one royalty, the combined power of both is what's needed to save itself and everybody!" Mickey released.
"That is clever to a whole new level," said Riku.
The lava finally burst through the wall and flowed down like a raging river straight for the plateau. Luckily, the shield had formed a large dome over the city, sealing the Crystal away from any harm as well. The lava washed overhead, seeking away inside. To everyone's relief, the shield kept the molten rock out. Packard took pictures of this as well.
Before long, the entire shield was covered in lava. Luckily, the Crystal unleashed a powerful light. It was so bright that everyone had to shield their eyes. The lava hardened in an instant.
There was a long silence.
"Ok… now what?" Myde asked awkwardly.
As if to answer his question, the Crystal's light pierced through the solid rock above. It continued down the length of the shield's dome until it reached the plateau as the shield began to disappear, causing everyone to brace themselves. Luckily, the rocks didn't hit them. Instead, they fell into the water on the outer rim of the plateau and forced the water trapped inside to flow out like waterfalls. None of the rocks struck the giant figures standing guard with their outstretched arms.
The sky's bluish color returned. Alongside it, a fury of clouds had appeared and taken the form of a fog-bank, hiding the Crystal. Kairi, Mickey, and Minnie ran over to Sora, Riku, and Milo before the six looked up as a bright light shone from above.
Down camre Kida, back to her original self, slowly descending from the clouds, still unconscious. Sora, Milo, RIku, Kairi, Mickey, and Minnie gradually stepped closer to where she was about to lande, with Milo holding out his hands to catch her. The moment she gently landed on her feet, the light faded quickly and she started breathing. She slowly opened her eyes and looked around before her eyes landed on the person holding her.
"Milo…" she said softly.
She then blinked in confusion when she felt something in her right hand. She opened it, revealing to everyone that it was a small bracelet, made to fit a child's wrist. It was pink with three gems, two blue and one larger red one in the middle. Kida smiled, as she recognised it as the bracelet she lost when her mother was taken by the Crystal many years ago. Now Kida had realized that when she was in the Crystal, her mother had given it back to her as a loving farewell and giving her a second chance. She gazed up at Milo with tears in her eyes before throwing herself into the linguist's arms and started to cry. Milo felt startled for a brief second before he gave her a hug.
Sora, Riku, Kairi, Mickey, and Minnie smiled at the scene. The teenagers gave each other knowing smiles, as did the two mice. Mickey and Minnie felt their shoulders touched, making them turn to see Donald, Daisy, Goofy, Max, Oswald, and Ortensia, the ducks being the ones who had touched their shoulders. The six toons smiled warmly at the rulers of Disney Town, who smiled back.
"Whoa, check that out!" came Lea's voice.
"It's so… beautiful…" came Aqua's voce.
"And majestic…" added Xion.
Sora, Riku, Kairi, Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Minnie, Daisy, Max, Oswald, and Ortensia spun around and their eyes lit up in astonishment. Roxas, Lea, Naminé, Xion, Isa, Terra, Aqua, Ven, Myde, Audrey, Cookie, Sweet, Vinny, Mole, and even Packard were amazed as well as they all approached the edge of the city with Milo and Kida in the center.
In the distance, the ruins of a rather large city could be seen in where the water had once been. It was clear that they had been submerged for a longtime, but the remains were still quite obvious, with all of them realizing the falling rocks caused the water to disperse and reveal the ruined buildings.
Everyone looked at the scene with fond smiles, Milo and Kida secretly holding hands.
"It looks so amazing…" said Max.
"This is one for the memories." said Kairi as she took a picture on her Gummiphone.
Kida took a few steps back before she looked at everyone.
"Atlantis will honor your names forever." she told them with a warm smile. "Thanks to you, our home and our people are safe and shall continue to live for years to come."
"We're happy we could help Kida." smiled Sora.
"It is our job to help across the worlds." added Ven.
"Sadly, this one will meet a grim fate." came a familiar voice.
Everyone tensed up and looked back towards the steps that led to the palace. There stood Ansem and Xemnas with evil smirks on their faces. It had been Xemnas who spoke.
"Not you two asshats again." grumbled Roxas.
"I thought we kicked your asses before we saved Kida!" exclaimed Ven.
"Why are you back in Atlantis?" demanded Kida.
"One last attempt to bring it to darkness." replied Ansem.
"What, you're gonna try to take on all of us?" Lea asked sarcastically.
Ansem and Xemnas chuckled darkly.
"Not us specifically." said Ansem.
The two snapped their fingers.
Then out of nowhere, a Heartless the size of a Neoshadow and Novashadow summoned in between the Organization members and the heroes. It looked like a tall Shadow Heartless with a green army uniform and hat with a Heartless badge on the right side. It had gold shoulder pads and a gun attached to a brown belt with a silver buckle.
"What is that?!" exclaimed Audrey.
"Looks like an army-themed Heartless." said Sora.
"Correction. The Heartless of Commander Rourke." corrected Xemnas. "His crystal remains were trained in darkness, used to create what you see before you: The Dark Commander."
"That's Rourke?" Sweet said in confusion.
"His heart was full of evil and greed that it turned him into one." Mickey explained.
Ansem and Xemnas snapped their fingers again and another Heartless appeared. It was shorter than the Dark Commander, dressed in a blue army uniform with a Heartless badge on the right side, a red belt with a black buckle, and a gun attached to it.
"Who's Heartless is that?" asked Goofy.
"The Spiteful Lieutenant is the Heartless of Helga Sinclair." replied Ansem. "Despite the fact that Rourke betrayed her and she got her revenge by shooting the airship, there was still darkness in her heart, enough to make this Heartless before she died."
"Well now things are getting interesting." said Vinny.
"Nothing we can't handle." smirked Sora.
Ansem and Xmenas smirked as the Dark Commander lifted its hand like it was conjuring something. And then, dozens of High Soldiers were summoned.
"Whoa!" gasped Milo.
"That's a whole lotta Heartless." mused Cookie.
"Where did they come from?!" exclaimed Mole.
"The Dark Commander commands these High Soldiers, the Heartless forms of all the soldiers you killed in the volcano." said Xemnas.
"Enjoy Atlantis while you still can." smirked Ansem. "It shall fall to the darkness once more."
With that, Ansem and Xemnas teleported away.
"Come on guys!" said Sora as he summoned Master's Defender. "We gotta get rid of these things!"
Nodding, Riku summoned All For One, Kairi summoned Destiny's Embrace, Roxas summoned Darker Than Dark, Naminé summoned Shooting Star, Lea summoned Flame Liberator, Xion summoned Sign of Innocence, Isa summoned Blue Moon, Myde summoned Mystic Water, Aqua summoned Brightcrest, Terra summoned Darkgnaw, Ven summoned Frolic Flame, Mickey summoned Kingdom Key W, Minnie summoned Starlight, Donald summoned Unbound and Meteor Strike, Daisy summoned Spellbinder, Goofy summoned Royal Radiance and Genji Shield (KHII), Max summoned Fenrir, Oswald summoned Classic Tone, and Ortensia summoned Zero/One.
"We'll fight too!" said Audrey as she brought out a large wrench.
Sweet, Mole, Vinny, Cookie, and even Mrs. Packard nodded as they drew their guns.
"Thanks guys!" said Riku.
Before Milo could ask to borrow a Keyblade again, he and Kida felt something in their right arms.
"Hey Milo, Kida, you ok?" asked Vinny.
"I have a strange feeling in my right arm." said Kida, confused.
"Hey, me too!" said Milo.
Suddenly, in bright flashes, Keyblades appeared in Milo and Kida's grasps!
The blade on Milo's Keyblade looked like a spear colored navy blue with Altantean writing in it in glowing white. The teeth looked like the Crystal as it was connected to the blade. The guard looks like ancient Atlantean technology, with the glowing pattern and small crystals at the bottom, the big Crystal at the top. The chain had three of Kida's earrings and the keychain was the Shepherd's Journal. (1)
Kida's Keyblade looked like an ancient rock formation colored black. The blade looked dark turquoise, swirling around underneath the rock design like water. The Keybalde was also covered in several bright blue lines, some connected to swirls. At the top of the guard was one of the Atlantean rock faces that floated around the Crystal in the chamber. The handle had yellow writing on it. The chain was two strings connected to the keychain, and Atlantean crystal, similar to the one the Atlateans wore. (2)
"WHOA!" Milo exclaimed in surprise.
Kida exclaimed in Atlantean, surprised as well.
"Where did those come from?" asked Audrey.
"Milo and Kida are this world's chosen Keyblade wielders!" exclaimed Sora.
"Chosen? Us?" asked Kida.
"They can be helpful in this battle!" said Isa.
"But how?" asked Kida. "I never used one before!"
"I only used mine like a sword, and I never used a sword before!" added Milo.
"You'll figure it out as you go along." said Sora with a supporting smile. "Plus, the spells will come to you."
Milo and Kida weren't so sure, but seeing Sora's supportive look, they nodded as they joined everyone else in fighting positions.
One last fight to save Atlantis.

Sora, Xion, and Terra started out the battle by each casting Blizzaga at several High Soldiers, freezing them in place before they slashed them away. Aqua jumped into the air and unleashed a Deep Freeze spell that knocked several more Heartless into the air before she slashed them away. Roxas casted Dark Firaga on several High Soldiers as Naminé finished them off with Triple Firaga. Mickey triple-somersaulted into the air as he unleashed Exo Spark on four High Soldiers at the same time before he finished them off with a Warp spell. Kairi casted Flower Shoot on three High Soldiers before she slashed them all away at once. Riku casted Zero Gravity on two Heartless before he blasted them away with Triple Pursuit. Ven fired a series of orbs of light at several Heartless before he finished the creatures of darkness off with a Triple Plasma spell.
Donald slammed his staff against some Heartless while slashing more with his Keyblade before he casted Triple Thundaga on five High Soldiers. Goofy tossed his shield around, slashing several more Heartless as he finished them off with an Ignite spell. Minnie casted Blackout on three Heartless before she destroyed them with Pulse Tracer. Daisy slashed at four Heartless surrounding her before she destroyed them with Fission Firaga. Max flipped away from three High Soldiers lunging at him before he destroyed them with a Tornado Tracer spell. Oswald casted Transcendence on five High Soldiers, allowing Ortensoa to jump into the air and destroy them with Sparkaga. Lea slashed some High Soldiers with his chakrams before he used his Keyblade to cast a Mega Flare spell to destroy them. Isa slashed at some more Heartless with his Keybalde before he used his claymore to destroy five in a row with a moonbeam. Myde bashed some Heartless away with his sitar before he casted Wateraga to destroy them.
Milo and Kida slashed any Heartless near them with their Keyblades. Using Sora's advice, they tried calling to some spells in their hearts. Milo managed to cast Blizzard onto some High Soldiers before he quickly slashed them away. Kida was able to use a Water spell to lift up four Heartless, allowing her to jump into the air to slash them away at once. Audrey bashed some Heartless with her wrench before she jammed the front end into a High Soldier's chest, killing it instantly. Mole, Cookie. and Mrs. Packard stood back to back as they fired their guns at the Heartless, ducking from their attacks. Vinny shot at some more Heartless while also throwing some small cherry bombs at them as well, said explosives bursting upon impact. Sweet fired more shots at the Heartless before he used his strength to punch and kick them away as far as 15 feet.
With the Heartless rated going down, Dark Commander and Spiteful Lieutenant summoned another hoard of High Soldiers.
"They just keep comin'!" exclaimed Milo.
"We gotta find a way to turn the tables!" said Lea.
"I got it!" said Sora.
Sora reached into his pocket and pulled out the Ohana Charm and yelled it to his chest.
"Give me strength!" he called.
The charm glowed as something appeared out of thin air. It had blue fur with darker patches on the back of his head and on his back as well. A domed nose rested in the center of his face, between large black, tear-shaped eyes. He had clawed hands and stubby legs that had shorter claws themselves. A short tail jutted out from his rear. It was Stitch.
"Sora!" he exclaimed happily as he crawled around the teenage Keyblade Master, making him laugh.
Stitch then floated alongside Sora as he drew two blasters.
"Come on!" said Sora.
Stitch jumped forward as he and Sora fired blasts from their weapons, creating electricity beams at different positions, making them into triangles as they then became force fields. Sora and Stitch continued this as they expanded from triangles to other multiple-sided shapes, creating bigger force fields, connecting them all together.
Stitch then hopped onto Sora's Keyblade.
"Ready?" asked Sora.
"Yee-haw!" Stitch replied.
Holding their weapons up, Sora and Stitch fired multiple blasts into the air, firing an enormous one as Sora yelled, "Take THIS!"
The force fields glowed brightly as they created cracking electricity that struck the Heartless, eliminating many of them.
"Thanks Stitch!" siad Sora as he and Stitch high-fived. "You're a good help!"
"Also cute and fluffy!" said Stitch as he vanished.
Terra, Ven, and Aqua were surprised after seeing that.
"Was that... Stitch?" asked Terra.
"I think it was..." said Aqua.
"Been a while since we saw him." mused Ven. "Though then again, he was a summon charm for Sora during his section journey."
"It was nice seeing him again." said Aqua with a small smile.
"And it looks like he's behaving himself." added Terra.
Seeing that there were still more Heartless, Lea turned to Isa.
"Isa!" he called.
"Let's go!" said Isa.
Lea and Isa charged at the Heartless together and dashed to slice through them before jumping and floating into the air on opposite sides, gathering red and blue fiery energy as their weapons float in front of them.
"I call upon the moon's pale light!" said Isa.
"And I'm calling for the light of the sun!" said Lea.
They exploded in red and blue flames. Lea and Isa both casted Mega Flare spells that engulfed the Heartless between them in pillars of red and blue flames. Lea tossed his chakrams and Isa tossed his claymore repeatedly, slicing away at the heartless from within.
"Burn! Baby!" chortled Lea.
"Begone!" yelled Isa.
As Lea continues slicing apart the Heartless within with his chakrams, Isa teleported and rushed around the pillar smashing his claymore constantly against the ground, unleashing the shockwaves of blue flames that go inside the pillar, making it flare and spark with more flames as it got bigger and burned the Heartless.
"Blow them away!" yelled Lea.
"End this!" shouted Isa.
Lea and Isa teleported on opposite sides with Flame Liberator and Blue Moon in hand before rushing towards the pillar of fire and slicing through. It exploded in flames, obliterating the Heartless and leaving nothing but flaming images of the Sun and Moon infused together.
Lea and Isa landed on the ground.
"Nice work." Isa complimented.
"Thanks." smirked Lea. "We'll call that one Sun and Moon."
Isa chuckled. "Good. I like that."
Soon, the Spiteful Lieutenant began to attack. It fired multiple shots at the heroes.
"Duck and cover!" called Aqua as many of them ducked from the shots.
Roxas ran at Helga's Heartless and shaped it twice, only for it to kick him in the jaw and then sock him in the face, making him stumble backwards. Xion struck the Spiteful Lieutenant in the back before blasting it with a Blizzara spell, which barely struck it as the Heartless punched Xion and then spin-kicked her away. Lea used that chance to fire Dark Firaga at it as Mickey backed him up with a Deep Freeze spell. The Spiteful Lieutenant then landed on its hands and spun it's feet around, kicking the two away, only to get blasted by Riku with a Raging Storm spell.
Kairi turned to Naminé and shouted, "Roxas and Sora can use a combo! So we can too!"
"Let's fight as one!" the blonde said determinedly.
Kairi and Naminé both flipped back floating in the air side by side, holding out Destiny Embrace and Shooting Star together, gathering a combined ball of pink and white light energy together.
"Go!" they yelled.
A showering bullet of energy stars of light ere blasted out of their Keyblades, slamming into the Heartless, damaging it.
"Please work!" muttered Kairi.
"As one!" yelled Naminé.
Kairi and Naminé used a combined Seven Wishes finisher, successively air thrusting their Keyblades on opposite sides, slashing Helga's Heartless and with a battle cry the 7th slash caused more significant damage.
"Come on!" yelled Kairi.
"Let's do this!" shouted Naminé.
The girls flew high in the air, forming pink and yellow meteors of light, the Hearts of Princesses shotlock. The meteors drop down and struck the Spiteful Lieutenant in pink and yellow light energy as Kairi and Naminé skated along the ground in a circle around it, forming a trailing circle of light around the Heartless until Kairi and Naminé flipped on opposite side of the circles and held out Destiny Embrace and Shooting Star.
"LIGHT!" they yelled.
Kairi and Naminé shot out beams of pink and yellow energy from the tip of their Keyblades that combined together in the air, forming two seals of light in the shape of Kairi's and Naminé's respective star charms. Both seals dropped down, combined, and engulfed the Spiteful Lieutenant and obliterated it in an explosive pillar of radiant light.
Kairi and Naminé landed on the ground.
"I knew we could do it!" Kairi said happily.
"Let's call that one Heart Barrage." suggested Naminé.
"I love it!" said Kairi.
The Dark Commander suddenly opened fire, forcing everyone to duck as it ran up to them. Donald slashed its face with his Keyblade before using Blizzaga against it with his staff. Goofy then casted Blackout to blind Rourke's Heartless before he performed Goofy-Tornado against it. The Dark Commander suddenly grabbed Donald by his collar and threw him straight into Goofy. Terra bashed his Keyblade into the Heartless' face before he casted an Ignite spell. Rourke's Heartless then punched Terra square in the face and then kicked Ven away in his chest before he could strike him. The Dark Commander punched the ground roughly, causing the heroes to stumble a bit before it opened fire on them. Sora, Roxas, Riku, Mickey, Aqua, Ven, Terra, Lea, and Xion used their Keyblades to block the bullets as Isa blasted the Dark Commander with a beam from the moon using his claymore.
Sora turned to Milo and Kida.
"Milo! Kida!" he called.
"I'm ready!" said Milo.
"Let's do this!" said Kida.
Kida gave Sora and Milo a boost into the air before she jumped up as well. The three struck the Dark Commander with their Keyblades at the same time, creating a small shockwave that blasted the three three one way and the Heartless the other.
"Come on!" yelled Sora.
"Ready for action!" called Milo.
"Take this!" yelled Kida.
Kida grabbed Muilo and threw him at the Dark Commander, Milo slashed it several more times before Kida flew over. She spun her Keyblade around, striking the Dark Commander several more times before she pushed herself away, grabbing Milo as well.
Sora ran up to Milo as Kida got behind the two of them.
"Give me strength!" called Sora.
"Let's finish this!" said Milo.
"Feel Atlantis' light!" called Kida.
Using her Atlantean Magic, Kida enchanted the three of them as they glowed bright blue. They held their Keyblades out as beams of light burst out from the tips, combining together to create a powerful surge that blasted the Dark Commander, destroying it in the process.
(Master Xehanort and Vanitas Boss Fight from Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep ends)
Soon, all the heartless were gone. Sora turned to Milo and Kida.
"That was awesome you guys!" he exclaimed.
"Thank you Sora." Kida smiled.
"I gotta say, that felt amazing!" said Milo, feeling ecstatic.
"What should we call that combo?" asked Sora.
"How about something simple like Atlantean Light?" suggested Milo.
"I like that." said Kida.
"Me too." nodded Sora.
"So now that the two of you are Keyblade wielders now, what are you gonna call your Keyblades?" asked Roxas.
Milo and Kida looked at their Keyblades before they looked at everyone else.
"Explorer's Light." said Milo.
"Crystal Guardian." added Kida.
"Good names." mused Lea.
Milo and Kida nodded as their Keyblades dismissed. Everyone else followed suit.
"Now that was a fun fight." said Sweet.
"Yeah, I really felt the rush." Audrey said in agreement.
"We get that a lot too." chuckled Roxas.
"I want to thank you all for helping me protect my home." Kida said gratefully. "Don't move. I will be right back."
Before anyone could ask anything, Kida ran off.
A few minutes later, Kida returned with a fancy box.
"What's in there?" asked Sora.
Kida opened it and took something out. It was a thin brown rope necklace with an Atlantean Crystal on it.
"They are for you all." Kida explained, much to everyone's surprise.
"Are you sure?" asked Minnie.
"I am." Kida nodded. "You all deserve to have one of your own, just like Milo."
Sora, his team, and the survivors of the expedition smiled. One by one, Kida placed a crystal necklace around their necks.
"Atlantis will honor your names forever." she said after placing the last one around Ortensia's neck.
"Gosh, thanks Kida." smiled Mickey.
"And hey, thank you guys for helping protect our worlds. Both this one, and the one above." Milo said with a smile.
"And for helping us see that there's more to adventures like these than money." added Audrey, smiling as well.
"Aww shucks! It was nothin'!" Goofy said modestly.
"Is there anything we can do to repay you?" asked Kida.
"Yeah, anything at all." nodded Milo.
Sora and his team traded glances.
"Well… we're assembling an Army of Light against our enemies in an upcoming war." said Sora.
"Not the kind you guys are already involved in." Kairi quickly said to Milo, Audrey, Sweet, Vinny, Mole, Cookie, and Mrs. Packard.
"Ansem and Xemnas are part of a group of villains responsible for many of the worlds being in danger." said Mickey. "And we're gathering help to stop them."
"Do you wish to join?" asked Naminé.
Milo, Kida, Audrey, Vinny, Sweet, Cookie, Mole, and Packard traded glances. Then, they all smiled at the group.
"Sure. I'll help." said Milo.
"I am in." added Kida.
"Count me in." said Audrey as she held her wrench over her shoulder.
"I'd be happy to help." added Sweet.
"I will help too!" said Mole.
"Sure. Sounds good." added Vinny.
"Darn right I'll help too!" said Cookie.
"I may be old, but I can fight just as easily." Packard smirked.
"Thanks guys." smiled Aqua.
"But Kida, what about Atlantis?" asked Xion. "You're in charge now."
"I will inform the Royal Council." said Kida. "Atlantis owes you for saving our world from such evil."
"That's good." nodded Mickey.
Just then, the Shepherd's Journal floated out of Milo's bag, glowing.
"What the heck?" Milo said in confusion.
"Sweet mother of Jefferson Davis!" exclaimed Cookie.
"What is happening?!" exclaimed Mole.
"Don't worry." assured Sora before he turned to Kairi. "Take it away Kairi."
Kairi smiled. "Thank you Sora.
Destiny's Embrace summoned in Kairi's hand. She held it out as a crown emblem appeared under her feet. The Shepherd's Journal shot a beam into the air revealing a keyhole. Kairi aimed Destiny's Embrace at it, and a beam of light shot out into the keyhole, sealing it.
"Wow…" Kida and Audrey said in awe.
"What was that?" asked Milo as the journal landed in his hands.
"This world is safe from the darkness." said Terra. "That means we can go now."
"Let me talk to the council and then we can." said Kida.
"Go ahead." said Donald.
Kida ran off.
"Anything we need to know?" asked Milo.
"You guys will be staging in a special world with the rest of the army." said Kairi. "Though Mole, you're gonna have to stay clean if you sleep in the dirt."
Mole was about to protest, but seeing Kairi, Naminé, Xion, Aqua, Minnie, Daisy, Ortensia, and Audrey's looks, he reluctantly nodded.
"You have my word."
"And Mrs. Packard, you'll have to quit smoking." added Mickey.
Packard shrugged. "Whatever you say." she said as she held up her box. "Light 'em up."
Lea took the box and used his fire magic to burn it into nothingness.
Then, Kida returned.
"Atlantis will be in good hands until we return." she informed them.
"That's good." nodded Isa.
"So how do we get to your home?" asked Vinny.
"Like this." said Mickey as he pulled out the Gummiship remote, pressing some buttons.
28 beams of light came down from the sky and soon, everyone was beamed up to the Gummiship.
Gummiship:
Jiminy was writing down in his journal when a bright flash appeared.
"Oh you're back." he said happily when he saw everyone.
"Hey Jiminy." greeted Riku as he took the pilot's seat.
"Got everything down?" asked Xion as she took the co-pilot's seat.
"Done and done!" Jiminy replied as he tapped his journal with his pencil.
"That's good." nodded Riku.
Milo, Kida, Audrey, Sweet, Vinny, Cookie, Mole, and even Mrs. Packard looked around the Gummiship in awe.
"Good night would you look at this thing?" Milo said in amazement.
"This is even more amazing than the Atlantean vehicles." Kida said in amazement.
"Even I'm impressed." said Packard.
"If she's impressed and not in a sarcastic way, then it must be impressive." said Sweet.
"Is this how you folks travel from one world to another?" questioned Cookie.
"That's right Cookie." said Lea as he took the weapon's seat.
Audrey noticed Jiminy.
"And who's the cricket with the tophat?" she asked.
"Cricket. Jiminy Cricket." Jimny replied, tipping his hat. "I'm the royal record keeper."
"When you think you've seen it all." commented Vinny.
"Alright everyone." said Riku. "Next stop, Disney Castle."
With that, Riku drove the Gummiship through the Lanes-In-Between.
"I wonder how things are going back at the castle." Oswald wondered out loud.
"I bet everyone's having the time of their lives." said Ortensia.
Disney Castle:
Louie and Lena were sleeping on the couch in the screening room, unintentionally up against one another.
Huey, Dewey, Webby, and Violet were watching them. Dewey and Webby each took a photo.
"They look so cute together." Webby cooed with a smile.
"They are the sharpest in our group." said Violet.
"Should we use this as blackmail or fond memories?" Dewey asked, showing the picture.
"I wouldn't want to use blackmail." said Huey.
Just then, they heard a soaring sound.
"Oh that must be them." said Violet.
"Should we wake them up?" asked Webby.
"Nah, they should wake up sooner or later." said Huey.
With that, the three ducks and hummingbird left. No sooner did they leave, Lena somehow slumped onto Louie's lap. That was what made the two wake up.
"Huh? What happened?" Louie asked groggily.
"I think we fell asleep watching that Ottoman show…" Lena mumbled.
Louie and Lena then froze when they noticed that the latter was laying on the former's lap. Lena quickly got up.
"Oh god! Louie I am so sorry!" she exclaimed.
"Lena calm down." Louie assured her. "I don't mind."
Lena was taken aback. "You don't mind that I laid on your lap?" she asked.
"Not at all." Louie assured her with a smile. He then blushed. "In fact I… I actually… liked it."
Lena was surprised. "You did?"
"Y-yeah…" Louie said sheepishly.
Lena smiled before she blushed as well, nervously rubbing her arm. "Well… I-I did too."
Louie and Lena sat for a moment, smiling and blushing at each other. Then, Louie spoke up.
"You wanna… find the others?" he asked.
"Sure." Lena smiled.
The two hopped off the couch and went to find their best friends.
Meanwhile, Launchpad was video chatting with someone on his phone in his room. It was a slender duck around his mid-20's with a white tuft of hair in three spikes. He wore a salmon collared shirt under a green vest.
"So Drake, how are things going in St. Canard?" asked Launchpad.
"Couldn't be more dangerous!" Drake replied. "Then again, that is the life of Darkwing Duck. Just last week, me and Gosalyn, or should I say, Quiverwing Quack, took down the Fearsome Five. And all it took was one try!"
"That sounds awesome!" said Launchpad with a smile. "I'm glad you're letting Gosalyn come on your missions now. Even though you never liked her being there, she does prove to be helpful."
"Well I did raise her." Drake boasted before he smiled fondly. "She really has come a long way since I adopted her. From a daughter I didn't want to get hurt to being a crime-fighter just like her adoptive old man."
"I'm proud of ya DW." smiled Launchpad. "I always worried about Gosalyn too, but she is good at fighting."
"Yep, yep, yep!" Drake said confidently. "She did learn from the best."
"Come on Dad!" came a voice.
Drake turned to see a brown-feathered girl duck walk up. She had green eyes, dark red hair tied into a ponytail at the back with a black ribbon, and wore a purple t-shirt with pink lining and a white 1 on the front, white socks, and reddish-pink sneakers with white tips. Drake turned to face her.
"We don't wanna be late for the new Space Mutants movie!" she called.
"I'm coming, Gosalyn. Just talking to Launchpad." said Drake.
"Ok." nodded Gosalyn as she faced Launchpad. "Nice talking to ya LP."
"You too Gos. See you around." said Launchpad as he hung up.
Just then, Dewey came into the room.
"Hey Launchpad, who were you talking to?" he asked.
Launchpad jumped in alarm as he fumbled with his phone and quickly put it away in his pocket.
"Uh, no one!" he said quickly with a nervous smile.
Dewey blinked.
"Ok… well anyway, the guys are back."
"Oh cool! I'll say hi!" said Launchpad.
With that, the two left the room.
Downstairs, Sora and his team were talking to Hayner, Pence, and Olette after dropping off those from Atlantis at the secret forest.
"I gotta say, those Crystals suit you guys." commented Pence.
"Gee thanks Pence." smiled Goofy.
"I just can't believe that there's another Atlantis out there sicne there's one already here." said Hayner.
"I know. And it's a whole lot better than the one here." nodded Donald.
"What's a whole lot better than the one here?" came a voice.
The 23 turned and saw Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby, Lena, and Violet walk up. It had been Louie who spoke.
"Hey kids." greeted Daisy.
"We were talking about Atlantis." said Kairi.
This perked the kids' interest.
"There's another Atlatnis out there?" asked Violet.
Before anyone could reply, the elevator doors opened. And there stood Scrooge.
"Hey Scrooge." greeted Lea. "What's up?"
"I heard that you lot returned and thought I should tell you about our guest." the billionaire replied.
Everyone traded glances.
"What guest?" asked Mickey.
"One who decided to show up unexpectedly." Scrooge replied with a smirk.
Reaching to the side of the elevator, Scrooge pulled out Goldie, who was tied up to a chair.
"Greetings everyone." Goldie greeted casually.
"Goldie?!" Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Minnie, Daisy, Max, Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Webby exclaimed in unison.
"What the Quack is Goldilocks doing here!?" exclaimed Donald. "How did she-?! You know what, I don't even want to know."
"Missed you too, Donnie." smirked Goldie.
"Watch it Goldilocks! Only my sister has the right to call me by that name!" Donald said sternly.
"So wait, that's Goldie O'Gilt?" asked Lea.
"I take it you've told them about me?" Goldie asked Scrooge with a smirk.
Scrooge smirked back. "I sure have."
"Like how you're a sneaky con artist." said Sora.
"Guilty as charged." Goldie smirked.
"So you're Scrooge's girlfriend." Lena smirked.
Webby, Violet, Kairi, Naminé, Aqua, Xion, and Olette giggled in amusement as everyone else burst out laughing.
"It's not like that!" Scrooge and Goldie shouted, glaring.
"Whatever you say." smirked Riku.
Goldie turned to Mickey and Minnie.
"Ah yes, King Mickey and Queen Minnie. How delightful to see you again." she greeted.
"Nice to see you too Goldie." Mickey greeted back.
"Trying to steal from the castle treasury?" Minnie asked with a knowing smirk.
"Not at all." Goldie replied. "I was looking for Scrooge."
"Oooh!" Huey, Dewey, and Louie said together, making everyone snicker.
"Oh grow up." Scrooge scoffed.
"And Goofy, still the King's Captain?" Goldie asked the knight.
"Sure am! A-hyuck!" Goofy replied.
"And Max, my you've grown." Goldie added when she saw Max. "Got a girlfriend yet?"
"I have for 2 years now Goldie." Max replied.
"Well that's nice." Goldie mused before looking at Daisy. "And Daisy. Been a while. How are you Ms. Lady-In-Waiting?
"Donald and I are engaged." Daisy replied as she held up her engagement ring.
"Really?" Goldie asked in surprise. "Well, congratulations."
"Thanks." Daisy replied.
"Funny Scroogie, you never mentioned that your nephew was getting married." Goldie said to Scrooge.
"Didn't feel like it was worth telling ya considering yer actions towards us." Scrooge replied.
"You mean like how the others say she always 'owns' you?" Violet asked, using air quotes.
"Precisely." Scrooge replied.
"He's got that right." said Donald as he glared at Goldie. "The first time we met when I was 12 you left me and Uncle Scrooge for dead at the hands of pirates."
"And I came back in the end!" Goldie retorted. "And it's not like you didn't enjoy the challenge!"
"As a matter of fact I didn't. Uncle Scrooge did." Donald replied.
"By the way, who are the rest of you?" asked Goldie.
"I'm Sora." said Sora. "That's Riku, Kairi, Roxas, Naminé, Xion, Lea, Isa, Myde, Terra, Aqua, Ven, Hayner, Pence, Olette, Oswald, Ortensia, Lena, and Violet."
"Quite the crowd." mused Goldie.
"How did you manage to capture her?" asked Terra.
"When she broke into my room, we traded words, she tried to get the drop on me, but I managed to outsmart her." Scrooge replied with a boastful smirk.
"I've been tied up for hours." Goldie grumbled. "Thank god I didn't need the bathroom."
"And before you got back, I got a nice head feather wax." added Scrooge.
"That's a thing?" Myde asked, bewildered.
"We're in a toon world, Myde." Lea reminded.
Scrooge then grimaced. "Unfortunately, the results weren't what I expected so… I'm keeping my top hat on all day, only taking it off at night."
"Oh come on Scrooge." Ven said with a dismissing wave of his hand as Scrooge took off his hat. "I'm sure it's not that ba-ALD! BALD! BALD!" Ven screamed when Scrooge's head began to shine in a blinding light.
"BALD! BALD! BALD! BALD! BALD! BALD! BALD!" Sora, Riku, Kairi, Roxas, Naminé, Xion, Lea, Isa, Myde, Terra, Aqua, Ven, Hayner, Pence, Olette, Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, Max, Oswald, Ortensia, Goldie, Dewey, Louie, Webby, Lena, and Violet screamed, their pupils shrunken from the brightness.
"MY EYES!" Huey screamed as his eyes burned at the brightness.
"Alright, alright!" Scrooge huffed as he put his hat back on. (3)
Just then, Launchpad and Beakley walked in.
"Greetings everyone." said Beakley. "I heard that you lot returned and-"
She paused when she saw Goldie.
"Hello Bentina. Launchpad." Goldie smirked.
"Oh hey Goldie." Launchpad greeted casually.
"What is she doing here?" Beakley demanded.
"Snuck in again." Scrooge replied. "But don't worry, I've got this minx all tied up good. There's now way she can get away."
No sooner did Scrooge say that, everyone looked back and to their shock, they saw only the chair with cut ropes laying around it.
"Uh oh… not again…" Beakley muttered.
"Yup. She got away." Scrooge granted.
"How did she do that?!" exclaimed Roxas.
"And so fast?!" added Hayner.
"She is pretty sharp." said Mickey.
"Just like me and Lena." Louie said as he and the teenage duck fistbumped.
"Ooh, she's good." said Oswald.
"No wonder you love her." Dewey teased.
Scrooge rolled his eyes as he felt his pockets, realizing that something was missing.
"Wait a minute. Did she just steal my wallet?!" Scrooge exclaimed.
"Yoo-hoo! Scroogie!"
Everyone looked out the castle doors that led to the garden and saw Goldie slyly waving with Scrooge's wallet.
"OY!" Scrooge shouted.
"She owned you again!?" Lea laughed.
Everyone burst out laughing. Sora, Ven, Roxas, Lea, Myde, Hayner, Pence, Max, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby, Lena, and even Donald clutched their stomachs as they laughed.
"So much for being smarter than the smarties." teased Myde.
Scrooge smirked. "Actually…" he said as he got out another wallet, much to everyone's surprise. "...What she just stole was a fake wallet with nothing but a little prank inside…" he said as he laughed mischievously.
Then there was a small explosion from outside. Everyone looked and burst out laughing as they saw an annoyed Goldie walk in, covered in soot.
"Very funny Scrooge." she deadpanned.
"Explosive wallet. Good one." laughed Dewey.
"Thanks lad." chuckled Scrooge. "Now then, how about some dinner?"
"Already being prepared." said Beakley.
"Great. Let's go!" said Mickey.
Minnie turned to Goldie. "You might want to wash up so you can join us for dinner." she told the blonde-haired duck.
Goldie was taken aback. "You're letting me stay for dinner?"
"Of course." said Daisy with a kind smile. "Despite your conning ways, you do always come through in the end and don't mean any harm."
"The lass has a point." said Scrooge.
Goldie smiled. "Well alright hen."
With that, everyone walked off.
