Hey everybody, I have returned with a new chapter for you all. So last time we saw the devil Horned King gather villains to help him conquer all, and now he has a new target…Master Yen Sid, who fought against his master, Aware long ago. What will happen? Let's find out.

Mysterious Tower

In the tower lived an old wizard, a wizard who wore an aqua-colored robe, with a blue pointy hat with stars on it, he had a long gay beard and gray hair as well. This wizard was known as Master Yen Sid. Yen Sid was once a Keyblade Master, but he has since retired and his keyblade was passed down to his apprentice, Mickey Mouse.

Yen Sid had been bothered by something recently, it was Sora who stopped Organization XIII and saved the universe again…but something else was troubling him. A dark presence he hasn't felt in a long time. Not since he was very young.

"This force," Yen Sid said grimly. "This dark force is something familiar…one I haven't felt since my younger days wielding a keyblade.." He said as he got up and went over to his window to peer out. "Arawn…" He thought. "A dark being who caused lots of destruction, many other worlds have fallen due to him...many of them not surviving. Him as well as his champion."

CRASH

Yen Sid immediately turned around to see a large ball of fire right in the center of the room. When the ball entered, Yen Sid could feel the evil presence even greater than before, and that was when a familiar figure stepped right out of there, and Yen Sid stared hard at it.

"Master Yen Sid…" the Horned King said in a menacing tone.

"Morda…"Yen Sid spat. "The lark lord Arawns champion…" He said as the two figures stared at each other, it was very intense in the room right now, almost as if you could cut it with a knife.

The Horned King glared. "It's been a long time since we last met." He said.

"Yes…when Arawn threatened to dominate many worlds…and he succeeded with a few...but that was before I took him down." Yen Sid then breathed hard. "Why are you here?"

The Horned King gave a dark chuckle. "When you fought him, his soul and essence were absorbed into the Black Cauldron. For years, I have sought to claim it, and finish where he left off. It took a long time…but I was finally able to get it in my grasp." The Horned King then walked around the room. "As a long time has passed…I forgot about the existence of keyblades…until recently."

The Horned King then snapped his fingers, summoning a bunch of Heartless out, much to Yen Sid's shock. "Wh-what?" the old wizard asked in shock. "How did you…"

"Maleficent." The undead lich said to him. "But it was only after she granted me this power that I killed her off." He said. "And with her out of the way, and with the power of the Heartless, and darkness at my side...where Arawn has failed…I will not, and all the worlds will be mine to conquer!" He said, raising his arm in the air. "And only one person standing in my way...is you…" He said darkly, but not before his hand was coated in dark mist and he sent a beam of magic. Yen Sid saw the attack coming and he thrust his hand with magic and the two beams collided, making a blast that knocked the Heartless out.

The two wizards' magic was locked together, sparks flickering off as the beam was crackling a lot. The force of the beam was a little too great as the entire tower was feeling the pressure and starting to crack a bit. Yen Sid was holding out on his own a bit well, but then he saw the Horned King become shrouded in dark mist as his beam was then coated with darkness. Yen Sid could feel himself beginning to falter as the Horned King's magic was shown to become slightly more powerful than his own.

Before the ball would hit, however, Yen Sid waved his arms to send the ball away and right back at the Horned King, but the undead lich caught it with both of his hands. He then pressed the magic orbin his hands as darkness then began to coat it a bit. And with a mighty roar, the Horned King launched it into the air, causing a large hole to go right through the roof. And right at that moment , the winter palace began to shake, making Yen Sid go wide-eyed.

"The tower! It's collapsing!" He said as he narrowly avoided a large piece of stone falling right on him, using hsi magic, he poofed himself out of the tower, leaving the Horned King behind.

"You won't get away that easy…" He said as darkness channels through him again.

Outside the tower, Yen Sid made it safely, but he was visibly exhausted, he wasn't as young as he used to be, and he could feel as if he was at his limit. But the horned King…just how powerful was he? Even with that darkness? There was just no way…no way.

Yen Sid then breathed heavily and got outa sheet of parchment and began to write in it at a fast pace. "I must send for King-

BOOM

Yen Sid suddenly turned to see his entire tower had blown right up in a sea of dark flames all over the place. Yen Sid's eyes winded at such a sight, his home…the home he had for many years...was destroyed. "No…" He breathed. "No!" He exclaimed.

"Oh yes…" Yen Sid's eyes winded when he saw who came out. The Horned King, walked right from the flames without a scratch on him. His eyes glowed red and darkness radiated off of his body. "Did you honestly think you can get rid of me that easily?" He asked.

Yen Sid, for the first time in what seemed like forever…was terrified, and he began to back up from the lich, who was approaching him.

The Horned King then thrust his hand forward and sent a beam of dark magic at Yen Sid, who did not have enough time to block it and was hit. It caused a great deal of pain as Yen said grunted and held onto his chest. That was when the Horned King got closer and closer. "I should kill you right there and now…but I have mastered a spell for a while now…that I shall use." He said as he then got close and placed his hand right on Yen Sid's forehead, his hand then gave a dark aura and coated Yen Sid as well.

"GAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" Yen Sid yelled in an anguished scream as the Horned King gave a dark chuckle. After what seemed like a few minutes, the light vanished and the lich let Yen Sid go, the latter falling right on the ground in a thud. The Horned King looked at his hand to see it radiating and he nodded shi head.

"So it worked…good." He said.

Yen Sid, now feeling weaker, tried to stand up, but he was too injured and weak to do so. "Wh-what did you do to me?" He croaked.

The Horned King simply looked at him. "I absorbed your magic." the Horned King's hands then glowed. "And now there is nothing you can do to stop me." He said as her eyes glowed red and he pointed his hands at Yen Sid again. "Time to die." He said as Yen Sid's eyes widened.

Disney Castle/Library

Meanwhile, in the world of Disney Castle, there was an anthropomorphic mouse with big round ears and a long thin tail. His attire consisted of a black vest with white lining, two yellow buttons near the bottom, and a zipper that only reached halfway to the vest. Under his vest, he wore a short-sleeved shirt that seemed to be the same color as the vest but with red cuffs, his pants are shown to be red and very baggy. The pants's pockets have white lining, and the fronts of his pants are pulled up slightly by blue elastic straps. Finally his shoes are shown to be yellow with the tips and lower halves are black, with the soles being white. This was Mickey Mouse, the king of Disney Castle. He was sitting at his desk in the library, and he had a frown on his face. There was something wrong and he could feel it as well.

"Mickey?" He turned to see some figures entering the library as well. The first one to enter was an anthropomorphic female mouse with big round ears, had a fair complexion, and was wearing an elegant ball gown with short, ball-like sleeves, with the top of the gown being pink with red lining. The pink section on the bottom sported flower-like patterns and also had a second layer underneath that was salmon-colored and a third layer that was red and pleated. She also had on white opera gloves, and a gold tiara on her head. This was Minnie Mouse, the queen of Disney Castle and Mickey's wife.

The second figure to appear was an anthropomorphic white duck with a yellow beak, webbed feet, and his attire consisting of a blue sailor suit-like outfit underneath a navy blue high-collared jacket with sky blue lining and cuffs. Three pouches were shown to be on the outfit, all of which were sky blue with white lining on them. On the middle of the jacket; the center pouch was secured by a flap, and the others had silver slippers. He also wore a short, blue cape that had a yellow lining that was draped over his shoulders that were kept in place by a silver strap. He also wore a thick, gold bangle on each of his wrists. Finally his assembly consisted of a navy blue beret with a belt replacing a brim, and a zipper that is big. This was Donald Duck, Disney Castle court Magician.

The third and final figure was an anthropomorphic dog with black fur and droopy ears, two buck teeth, and three short hairs coming out of his head. His attire consisted of a green turtleneck sweater with sleeves that bell out slightly and blue arrow-shaped strap on each cuff. On his hands were white gloves with a brown band on each wrist. Over the sweater was black combat, a sleeveless vest with gray lining and four pockets of the exact same color. His yellow pants are secured by a thick, black belt and look as if they had large pockets and a patch on each leg. The bottom rims of the pants were dark orange and were pulled upward in the front by a brown strap. And the shoes he was wearing are large and brown with steel toes on the outside. This was Goofy, the Captain of the Royal Guard.

Mickey, Donald, and Goofy are long-time pals, having been with each other for ... .well ... a really long time! Mickey himself is a Keyblade Master, having been trained by Master Yen Sid, Donald and Goofy had skills as well, with Donald being skilled in magic and Goofy being skilled in his shield.

Today they were all planning a special party celebration for all the people of Disney Town right here in the castle, and they wanted to get Mickey. But when Minnie saw his dazed face, she got worried. "Mickey, are you alright?" she asked.

Mickey looked up as if he was in a daze. "Huh? Oh, yea…I'm alright." He said to her with a small smile, trying to apply if off like nothing's wrong. But the others knew well though.

"Are you sure?" Minnie asked.

"Yea, you don't look so good, buddy." Goofy said while tilting his head.

Mickey shook his head. "Yeah, I'm alright fellas, let's get the celebration going." He said as he then got out of his chair and made his way towards the door, leaving the other three behind and looking worried for him.

"Well..I guess we should get going then," Minnie said with some uncertainty in her voice as she turned to the other two. "Can you guys keep an eye on him?" She asked.

"Of course!" Donald said as he and Goofy saluted. M

"Still, shame that Sora couldn't make it." Goofy said.

Doanld nodded. "I agree, but he wants to spend some time with Riku and Kairi after that business dealing with Organization XIII. Can't blame him for wanting to relax." He said. "Anyway, let;s go Goofy." He said.

Assembly Hall

Many citizens from Disney Town were now in the castle's assembly hall, all of them mingling and mixing and having a good time. Many children were running around and playing together. Mickey and Minnie were both on their thrones looking out at them all with smiles on their faces. But still…something in Mickey's gut was telling him that something was wrong….and he didn't know why, exactly.

Minnie looked a t home and her corners got bigger. "Mickey," she said as she grasped onto his hand. "Are you sure you're ok?" she asked.

Mickey sighed. "I want to be…but I can't help but feel like something is wrong…I just feel it." He said.

Minnie rubbed his hand affectionately. "Why? We have nothing to worry about, and the Cornerstone is safely back here, so no Heartless can get here now…you don't have to worry about it." She said to him as she rubbed his hand some more.

Mickey looked at her, and then back at his loyal citizens and sighed. "I guess, yeah, yo6r right." He said with a small smile. "Must just be my nerves." He then frowned. "After the whole issue with Organization XIII, I guess I'm just a bit on the edge." He said as he wiped some sweat from his head.

Minnie then gave him a kiss on the cheek, making the king blush a bit. "Well, you got Donald, Goofy, Daisy, and I here with you." She said with a smile. "Don't worry."

Mickey then kissed her on the cheek, making the queen giggle slightly and blushing at the same time. "You always know how to make me happy." He said.

Minnie smiled. "I try, don't I?" she asked him.

Mickey then smiled and then clapped his hands trying to get everyone's attention. "Everybody?" He called out, but no one heard him. "Uh, everybody?" He called out again, but no one answered.

Donald saw and rolled his eyes. And with a big huff of air, he yelled. "EVERYBODY SHUT IT!" he yielded in his loud squawking voice. The sound made everybody stop what they were doing immediately and tune to the source.

Mickey, who put his pinky in his ear, cringed a bit. "Thanks, Donald." He said, with the duck mage giving him the thumbs up. "Now, everybody," Mickey said, finally getting everyone's attention at last. "Today is the day we celebrate the many years of peace here in Disney Town!" He said, making everyone applaud and clap hands, and for Mickey to smile. "Awe, gosh." He said with a chuckle. "Now, I want to give a big shout-out to everyone who made this possible. My beautiful queen."

Everybody applauded for Minnie, who smiled and waved at them all. "My Court Mage," everybody, despite being a bi9t sore from the shout, applauded for Donald, who smiled and gave the thumbs up. "My Captain of the Guards." Everyone applauded for Goofy, who simply blushed and waved a bit. "And most importantly, all of you. You Have all been so supportive of me for the past years, you all deserve honors as well, so give yourselves a big hand everybody!" and with that, the entire place roared with laughter and cheers.

The worry that Mickey had disappeared, he was surrounded by his friends, family, and the many good citizens of Disney town who supported him all the years. Nothing could ruin that da, nothing at all.

BOOM

Wrong! All of a sudden a corridor of darkness appeared right at the main doors, making everyone look back and the citizens looked with worry. Mickey's eyes went wide and so did Minnies, but Donald and Goofy glared hard and were ready to fight whoever it was.

"Well, isn't this such a touching moment?" Everyone in the shell recognized that deep, mean voice. Pete! Pete stood out of the corridor with a smirk on his face. "Hello, citizens of Disney Town! Did you miss me?" He asked as many of the citizens all whimpered a bit. Pete was the biggest troublemaker of the world but that was before Queen Minnie banished him. So why was he back here?

"Pete!" Mickey called out with anger in his voice. "What are you doing here in my castle!"

Pete chuckled. "Well, your 'majesty'," Pete said with air quotes. "You see, I have found myself some new employment as of recently…I won't spoil anything, but the point is I also got a crack squad boys with me. C'mon out guys!" He said as four figures stepped right out and stood with him.

The first figure standing with Pete was an anthropomorphic red wolf with orange-brown fur, his muzzle being a cream color, thick eyebrows, and a double triangle-shaped notch on his left ear. His attire consisted of a blue captain's coat with red and gold accents, a sword that was strapped to the coat, light blue pants, and black boots. This figure was known as Don Karnage, the villainous leader of the Air Pirates.

The second figure was an anthropomorphic female duck with purple eyeshadow and black hair, and her attire consisted of a black dress with red cuffs and black heels as well. This was Magica De Spell, a female duck witch who is an old enemy of Donald Duck's uncle, Scrooge McDuck.

The third figure was a tall lanky-looking mouse with two black whiskers on each side of his long mouth, and two large buck teeth hanging out of his mouth. His attire consisted of an orange cloak underneath black armor that consisted of a black chest plate with the Heartless emblem, dark red pauldrons, dark red greaves, and on his side was a sword. This was Mortimer Mouse, one of Mickey Mouse's enemies who is constantly trying to steal Minnie from him.

The fourth and final figure was an anthropomorphic wolf who didn't wear any shirt, but instead wore dark purple pants with suspenders, and a top hat that had the Heartless emblem on it. This wolf was simply called…well…the Big Bad Wolf.

Everyone in the chamber all gasped and screamed at the sight of these figures, but no one was even more shocked than Mickey and the rest.

"Mortimer! Don Karnage!" Mickey said with shock in his voice.

"The Big Bad Wolf!" Goofy exclaimed.

Donald glared hard at the duck witch. "Magica De Spell…" He heard stories about her from his uncle Scrooge, and now that she was right here…he was not too happy.

Pete chuckled. "You see pipsqueak? I got myself a crack squad of my very own to help me out with my employment."

Mortimer laughed. "Plus, the big guy promised that he would make Minnie become my woman if I helped him out." Mickey glared hard at him as Minnie looked frightened.

"And he would help me get your uncle's Number One Dime!" De Spell said to Donald, who glared hard.

"I'm just in it for the riches!" Don Karnage. "And to get revenge on that pathetic mouse for locking me and my crew up!" He said in an accent that seemed to be a mix of Spanish, French, and Italian.

"All the food I can eat…and to finally get those three piggies." The wolf said as his mouth began to drool.

Mickey was not intimidated however as he snapped his fingers and the guards all came forward with their weapons drawn, and he summoned his keyblade and Donald and Goofy came alongside him. "I want all of you out of my castle right now!" He ordered.

Pete smirked. "Heh, well, we just got started so we ain't looking to fight any of you chumps...yet." He said with a dark chuckle. "Oh, and by the way." He said as he gave a tap to his chin. "If I were you, I would go check up on that old wizard friend of yours." He asked, making Mickey go wide-eyed. "I heard he ain't doing too good." He said as he then turned to his gang.

"Alright guys, let's get out of here." He said as he led her group through the dark corridor again, and he was the last one to enter…but not before. "Oops, I almost forgot." Pete said as he snapped his fingers and a large dark pool appeared right in the center of the room, making everybody back up in fear. "Enjoy the party gift!" Pete taunted as he went through the portal, vanishing.

The ground shook a bit as a large pool of darkness appeared in the center, making everyone step back in fear. Seeping right out of the pool was a massive, muscular Heartless that had black skin. It;s legs were a bit short, but its feet were really thin and culled upright. Its arms are super long and are shown to have really small wings on its backside. It's head is shown to be covered in twisted black tentacles, and small glowing beady yellow eyes. But the most distinguishing thing about the Heartless was the large heart-shaped hole in the abdomen area that penetrates straight through the back from the front. This is simply called Darkside, a Pureblood Heartless.

The citizens of the corridor were shouting in fright as the Heartless loomed over them all. But Mickey, Donald, and Goofy were not terrified in the slightest. "Minnie!" Mickey said, turning to his wife. "Get everyone out of here! We'll take care of this guy!" He said.

"Got it!" Minnie said as she and a few of the guards began to lead the citizens out of the hall, leaving Mickey, Donald, and Goofy to stay behind and fight the Heartless off.

"Ready, fellas?" Mickey asked.

"Ready!" Donald and Goofy said together and the three began to fight. Darkside attempted to deliver a punch right on top of the trio, but they quickly dodged right out of the way in time. Mickey then ran right on he Heartless's arm, keyblade in hand, and jumped high and pointed his weapon. "FIRAGA!" He said as he shot a large fireball at the Heartless's head, causing it to get hit and stagger back a bit into a wall, making some rubble crash down.

Goofy ran towards the Heatless as it raised its giant fist and attempted to hit Goofy, but luckily the dog knight dodged out of the way in time, despite shaking a bit due to the shaking of the ground. Goofy then threw his shield like a frisbee at the Heartless, and luckily he hit it. But the shield then went right off and narrowly hit Donald.

"Watch it!" Donald shouted.

Goofy sheepishly smiled. "Sorry, Donald." He apologized. Donaly sighed and looked up to see the Darkside placing its hand on the ground, creating a dark pool of darkness and sprouting many Shadow Heartless.

Donald narrowed his eyes at them as he raised his staff in the air. "THUNDERAGA!" He shouted as a large lightning bolt came from the sky and fried many of the Heartless right there, making them all vanish. The lightning also hit Darkside, who shook his head.

Goofy then raised his arms to the side. "Goofy Tornado!" He shouted as he then began to spin a round, and around, and sound like a top, his shield hitting all the Heartless who attended to jump him, had gone sliding back and disappearing.

At this point, the Darkside ws now beginning to falter as Mickey unleashed blow after blow on it, and finally, in one final act, Mickey jumped high in the air as his keyblade glowed and he pointed at the Heartless. "ULTIMA!" He shouted as he fired off a large beam of Light at the Heartless, when the light hit its head, the Darkside sputtered for a moment…before it began to fall back and disappeared in dark mist. Mickey then jumped down onto the ground, looking determined.

Donald and Goofy both cleared out the Heartless and ran right up to him. "That was awesome!" Donald said to Mickey, with Goofy nodding his head in agreement.

This prompted the mouse to blush a bit. "Gosh, fellas." He said with a chuckle, but then his smile faded when he remembered the words Pete told him. "Master Yen Sid!" He said as he looked at Donald and Goofy. "Fellas stay here and guard Minnie. I gotta go see the master!" He said as he then raced out of the ballroom.

Mysterious Tower

In a flash of light, Mickey had finally arrived at the tower, but when he saw the tower destroyed and on fire, his eyes shrank and his face was in one of deep shock. "Master!" He cried as he ran towards the burning tower…..but where was he? Did he get out? What had happened here?

Mickey didn't want to think of the worst, but unfortunately, he did just that as he sank to his knees and shook his head. "No….no…" He said softly as he then put his head down. "Master Yen Sid…" He said as tears began to pour right out of his eyes.

POOF

All of a sudden an old wizard with a long white beard, wearing a blue cloak, brown shoes, carrying a wand, and a blue wizard's hat appeared right behind Mickey. This wizard is Merlin, a resident of Hollow Bastion.

"King Mickey…" Merlin said to him, trying to get him to listen.

Mickey didn't turn around, all he did was rest on his knees and weep. "He's gone, Merlin." Mickey said with a whimper. "Master Yen Sid is gone." He said as he then began to cry, and then it turned into anger as he began to pound his fists right in the ground. "WHY WASN'T I HERE?!" He shouted. "WHERE WAS I? WHY COULDN'T I SAVE HIM?" He shouted in anger and sadness as he pounded the ground some more, Merlin just looked at the scene with a somber expression on his face.

"M-Mickey." A weakened voice said to him, making both Mickey and Merlin look to see who it belonged to, and much to their shock and surprise. It was Master Yen Sid! And he wasn't alone, he was being helped by a man in a black coat.

Normally Mickey would be wary of these men in black, but now was not the time, all he did was run towards his master, with Merlin in tow. "Oh Master!" Mickey said with a big, happy, tearful smile. "I'm so happy you're alive."

"Yen Sid, my old friend." Merlin said with a hearty laugh, in which Yen Sid smiled.

"S-sorry if I *winced* worried about you." He said to them both as he turned to the man in black. "You can let me down now."

"No problem, old man." The man in black said as he helped Yen Sid down.

Merlin and Mickey both gasped at the man's disrespectful tone. "Now, I say young man!" Merlin said with a frown as he waved his wand in the man's face like if he was a teacher scolding a delinquent. "Do you have any idea who you are talking to?" He asked.

"Merlin, it's fine." Yen Sid said, getting his fellow wizards' attention. "He saved me." He said, shocking both Mickey and Yen Sid.

"He did?" Mickey asked as he stared at the man. "But, who would a member of the Organization save you? And more importantly, why are they still around?" He asked as he turned to the man. "While I thank you for saving my master…but I thought you guys were done for." He said with suspicion.

The man chuckled. "True you defeated the Organization…but I am 100% me again." He said as he took his hood off to reveal a man with thick, shoulder-length bright red hair that was styled into slick back spikes, bright emerald-colored eyes, and small eyebrows. "Oh and before you say anything else, the name's not Axel…the name Lea," He said with a smile as he then put an index finger to his head. "Got it memorized?" He asked.

Mickey and Merlin were even more shocked. "But..but how? Why? And what did you save Master Yen Sid from?" He asked.

Yen sid sighed. "Long story…but first, Merlin, can you get me to Radiant Garden? I will need to use your house to recover for a while."

Merlin smiled. "Of course." He said as he twirled his wand around and in a poof, the group of four had vanished

And we are done with that one, I hope you all enjoyed that!

So The Horned King and Master Yen Sid are familiar with each other, Yen Sid gets his magic stolen, and then Pete gets himself a squad and runis Mickey's celebration. and to top it all off, Yen sid is saved by Lea! Holy Cow! What will happen next?

As I said before I'll update as best as I can in my speed since Overtime here is done but just be patient with me alright?

Hopefully next year I'll find another job with fewer hours, and then I will have some more free time on my hands.

Also please don't forget to leave a read and leave a review, I'm always happy to hear from you guys and happy to answer any questions you might have for me.
