She strode, she sat, she stroked her chin, she kicked Nanny’s chamber pot and broke it. “Yes there trust is misplaced! What have I got,” she mumbled. “There’s the broom. There’s the bees. There’s the monkey. There’s Killyjoy-did they hurt Killyjoy? There’s Killyjoy. There’s the crows. There’s Nanny. There’s the villagers, if they’re unharmed. There’s the questionable Grimmerie. It’s not a lot.” “No, it’s not,” said Nanny, sighing. “Doom, doom, I say.” “We can get them back,” said Fae. “We will.” “Count Nanny in,” said Nanny, “though I never did like those sisters, I’ll tell you.” Fae clenched her fists and tried to keep from striking herself. “Liir gone too,” she said. “I came here to make my apologies to Sarima, and I lost Liir in the bargain. Am I good for nothing in this life?” She groaned heavily. "What of you?" Nanny asked, turning to Ezekiel. "This is, your castle, which means you have, your troops." "Don't be ridiculous. They think he's dead, they won't listen." Fae spat angrily. "But I guess that's worth the try."
"I'll go left with you too, Alisa." Calxiyn smiled at her. Malkira could only take one left, because there was only one left. Malkira ran into a wall. Mizuki and Lucia both went right. "It looks like there's a cubby hole there." Balthazar told Alisa and Calxiyn. "Maybe we should take a look?" Calxiyn asked. Calxiyn and Alisa: Take a look, or continue to the next point? Malkira: "It looks like there is a route up ahead, but maybe you should go back with your team." Balthazar told Malkira, telepathically. Continue up, or go back? Beucette, Mizuki, Lucia: "You've hit a dead end." Balthazar told them. "Go back, join your comrades." There was a soft role from the shadows, and from the marble, a Manticore.

“Well, you know-my dear-you saw I suppose, that everyone has disappeared?” Nanny asked Ezekiel. Fae dropped the glass of water onto the floor, and it spilled behind her as she scowled in confusion, and rising, sudden fear. Nanny took a deep breath. “Now don’t be angry at Nanny. It’s not Nanny’s fault. Those soldiers suddenly decided that their exercises were finished. I don’t know how, maybe Nor told them you were gone? She told us; she’d been sneaking around looking for your broom, and she said you weren’t here. So maybe she mentioned it to them. You know how nice they were to her, how they adored her. The soldiers came to the front door and said that they needed to escort the entire family, Sarima and her sisters and Nor and Irji, back to their base camp, wherever it is. They didn’t require me, they said, which was very insulting indeed, and I let them know as much. Sarima asked why, and that nice Commander Cherrystone said that it was for their own protection. In case a fighting battalion comes through, he said, it won’t do to have any members of the ruling family still here, or there might be a bloody incident.” “Coming through, a battalion? When?” Fae hit the windowsill with her open palm. “I’m trying to tell you. No time soon, he said; this is just advance planning. They became insistent. Those soldiers scattered the peasants in the village-I don’t think there was any killing, it all seemed quite humane, except for the chains-and only I was left behind, being too old to march down a mountain, and no relation besides. Also, they left Liir, since he was no threat and I think they’d become fond of him. But a few days later Lift disappeared, too. I’m sure he was desperately lonely for them, and he must have followed them to their camp.” ‘And nobody protested?” Shrieked Fae. “Don’t yell at me. Of course they protested. Well, Sarima fell in a heap, fainting dead away, and liji and Nor looked after her. But the sisters, that mealy-mouthed lot, they barricaded the dining room and set fire to the chapel wing, trying to draw attention, and Three slammed a sharpening stone on the hand of Commander Cherrystone and broke every bone in his wrist, I bet. Five and Six rang the bell, but the shepherds are too far away, and it all happened too fast. Two wrote messages and tried to tie them to the feet of your crows, but they wouldn’t be liberated, they just kept roosting on the windowsills again, useless old things. Four had a great idea about boiling oil, but they couldn’t get the flame high enough. Oh, it was a merry chase here for a day or two, but of course the soldiers won. Men always win.” Nanny said simply. Nanny continued petulantly, “And we all thought they’d ambushed you earlier, to get you out of the way. You’re the only effective one here, everyone knows that. They all think you’re a Witch. The townspeople told me that if you come back you’re to be in touch with the hamlet of Red Windmill down below the dam, you know the one. They seem to think you can rescue their royal family, such as they are. I told them it was misplaced trust, that you wouldn’t be interested, but I promised to give you the message, so there it is.” Fae strode back and forth. She pulled her hair from its customary knot and shook it out, as if trying to shake away what she was hearing. She ran her fingers through her hair. She turned to Ezekiel. This was Fiyero's wife, his children, Nor, Irji, everyone else. All of this family. And she had let them get kidnapped. She looked like she were a ticking time bomb. At any moment, she was ready to implode in on herself.
Desert of Ev "I've never been personally told about Fiyero, no sir." Nanny told the boy, taking back her pills. “Just that you are not him. But I can see how she might think so. Barely. I'm going blind you see.” Nanny explained. "She's been grieving since she got her, the reason why she came to the castle in the first place. But I just got here myself, I was a care taker to her sister, but I've come with her here after Nessa could walk, you see." She closed her eyes for a moment.
Desert of Ev "I have no idea. Nanny was practically born an old women. She gets senile." Fae whispered to Ezekiel. "I heard that." Nanny croaked back. She went back on her tangent. “And not saying a word. You had us frantic with worry-” The last piece scraped across the floor, and Nanny flung open the door. Nanny looked over at Ezekiel curiously. "Who's this?" "Nanny, it's Fiyero." Fae whispered to Nanny, but not loud enough so Ezekiel could hear it. Nanny started laughing hysterically now, before starting to cry. “You hideous ungrateful woman!” She fell heavily into her arms and burst into tears. “Please, I’ve had enough drama to last me the rest of my life,” said Fae. “What are you going on about?” Nanny took some while to calm down. She rummaged through her bag for some smelling salts, pulling out enough little bottles and satchels to set up her own apothecary business. There were blue glass vials, clear piliboxes, snakeskin envelopes of powders and pills, and a beautiful green glass bottle that had an old torn label on it, MIRACLE ELI-. She administered calming agents to herself, and when she could breathe again, she said, "Grab me a cup of water, Fae." After she left to get the water, Nanny was stuck with Ezekiel. "Would you like some, dearie?" She handed a bottle to Ezekiel. "Someone who's traveled far as you... all the way from earthland oh boy, needs some pills for sure."
Desert of Ev She nodded. "I'll take you there." She got onto her broom, and pulled Ezekiel onto the broom as well. They flew across the map. "This is yo-" She cut herself off. If she tried to get him to remember too much at once, it was possible it could harm him. "Kiamo Ko." She explained. It was late in the afternoon, with the sun still hot and high compared to its winter habits, she toiled her way up the last slopes, Kiamo Ko raising its narrow dark profile above her. She felt like a child looking up at the top hat of a very tall gentleman.She came to a halt above the orchard, made her way to the back door, and found it open, which meant the sisters were out flower picking or some such nonsense. The place was quiet. She grabbed a browning apple from the sideboard and trudged up the steps of her tower while eagerly pulling around Ezekiel, without running into anyone. When she passed Nanny’s room, she rattled the doorknob and said, “Nanny?” “Oh,” came a little shriek, “you startled me!” “May I come in? I need you to help me, we have a traveler here and-” “Just a minute.” There was the sound of furniture being dragged away from the door. “Well, this is a fine mess, Miss-!" "Fae." "Going off and leaving us to be murdered in our beds, or just as likely!” “What are you talking about? Let me in.” She ratted the doorknob again.
The others seemed to agree that humbleness was the key. Thankfully, it was. The group rose up to a platform, and the walls were made of hard marble stone. The ceiling was low, making it impossible for Calxiyn to fly. She looked out from where they were, and saw what was almost like, a hallway. "It's a maze." Calxiyn told the group. "The final step. All of these have been measurements. Willpower, Intelligence, and now skill." Balthazar explained. "Whatever you do, don't use magic on the walls. The room is only up to Caliborn's height, and when it floods we'll all drown quickly. Lucky, I think I've come prepared for this." Balthazar said to them. He pulled out a Super Computer, and put it on the ground. He typed some stuff, and then everyone's faces came onto the screen as Icons, blinking on the area. "You all investigate the Maze. I'll stay here and try to make a map out of it. If someone finds the exit, go on ahead without us. You won't remember the way you came, and you can retrieve the hand. The rest of us will follow once your path has been relieved on the computer." "Be careful Balthazar, you don't know what's going to be lurking around here." "I could say the same to you, young lady." ~ The Rules Of The Maze ~ This is pretty straight forward, don't break through the walls of the Maze. You all need to take part in this one. No exceptions. I can't think of anything else right now, but yeah, don't die. Caliborn: Blue Dot Alisa: Purple Dot Beucette: Red Dot Mizuki: Black X Lucia: Yellow Dot Calxiyn: Pink Dot Malkira: Brown Dot Calxiyn looked at the directions they could go into. Starting from the beginning, they could either go Left, or Right. "What should we do?"
"Looks like we got company." Zachary told the group, grabbing his sword. "Leo, take Princess Dominique to look for Zwei and Johanna." Samantha directed. "I am capable enough to fight along side you." The Princess argued. "I'm sure you are, but you're a liability. And we need to find Zwei and Johanna, you both won't look so out of place, especially in a castle setting. So, go!" Samantha told her. Dominique looked at Leo. "I guess you're baby sitting me again." Dominique said bitterly. "How are we going to find them?"

I had no idea there was a legal issue to do with Jungle Book. Part of the reason why I didn't consider it was, admittedly, because I hadn't seen it in a long time. I had no idea there were issues like that surrounding it. I've actually am trying to recall if any of the Kingdom Hearts Worlds have used the squeal plot lines, but I do recall them hinting at doing so. Nala, in Kingdom Hearts 2, says that the Pride Lands are depending on you, and so is Nala's and Simba's baby. Now, at the end of Lion King one, yes, it was in the ending scene that Rafiki was holding a Lion Cub to present to the Pride Lands, but it seems like a really out of place thing to mention unless they had some kind of idea to follow that up. Now, I'm not really sure how long Kingdom Hearts 3 is after Kingdom Hearts 2, and there isn't really a set time, but, Baby Lion Cubs grow up into adults in about 3 years. That means that a Lion King Squeal isn't so far away, depending on the gap. Sora does look like he's grown up quite a bit, but most people assume at least a yearish. That being said, most of the Disney Squeals are some time after the original movies, which means that we would be waiting till Kingdom Hearts goes further into the future to do them. Considering that the worlds of Snow White and Sleeping Beauty finished their movie plots in Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, I'm not sure that they'll appear again. That, and unless they figure out a very good plot, there isn't very much really to do there. My own hatred of Wonderland might come into play a bit too much in my original post haha, but if they do figure out how to expand those worlds more, it would be interesting. Neverland got the 'Island Expansion' in BBS, and was also in 358/2 Days, which definitely gave it some more volume. Wonderland on the other land still hasn't actually gone past the Queens Court, and it would be nice if they showed more of the characters like the Mad Hatter, The Caterpillar etc. I watched Atlantis just yesterday, actually, and I was trying to figure out how that would be placed in Kingdom Hearts. One of the, not really 'problems' I see with it, but just something to consider in general is where it would start. In my head, instead of traveling on the ship with Milo and the others, they would just arrive there with the Gummiship. Maybe they would have to fight leviathan on the way in or something like that, but I don't think they would be traveling with Milo. The reason for that is, well, to put it simply, a lot of people die to get to Atlantis. Even in the movie it addresses this, by saving they started with a crew of 200, and there were only around 40 (at the max, I didn't count lol) of them left. That's really heavy stuff, and I'm not going to lie, even when I was watching it it slightly upset me. I'm not sure about Little Mermaid II though. From what we've seen Kingdom Hearts 3 isn't too far away from Kingdom Hearts 2. There's probably, at the maximum, a year or two in between. In LM2, Melody is 14 Years old (maybe). I can't remember. Either way, unless we're going to use Xehanort's Time Travel, which I wouldn't be surprised if that happens someday, Little Mermaid 2 is two far away, for now.
"Oh hey, I think I understand now." Calxiyn spoke. "The answer was yes, but then it turned to no, because of what Malkira said." The water stopped flowing. "If we asked the Oracle, I think she would answer no. We thought it couldn't be true, and neither did Malkira. Because obviously we know he isn't the wisest man, or the wisest out of all of us. But the reason why he can be the wisest is because of the fact he realized he was wrong at times, like that time he said just now. This is the answer to the riddle. By realizing you make mistakes, you are a wise ruler, just like the one that the Hand of Midas needs. If you can't admit your wrong, and things need to be changed, how will you ever be able to help your people grow? By realizing your mistakes and your wrongfulness you can fix it, and that's what you need." Balthazar looked at Calxiyn in some kind of amazement. "That's the reason why the riddles were so easy. I think I understand it now. Easy answers, to boost your ego enough that you think you could never be wrong, to make you think you are the best, when you simply aren't, and by realizing that you are better." "When you say it like that, it just sounds confusing." Calxiyn crossed her arms. She then turned to Lucia, Alisa, Mizuki, and Malkira. "Well, is that it, do you think?"
Octo The Water Guardian said nothing. The water rose to their ankles. "I mean, if it's not yes, then obviously it's no... but why? Why would it be no? It's not like Malkira, no offense or anything, but you're not exactly anything special. So what is it. What is the reason?" Calxiyn said, pacing through the water.
Ennea Calxiyn was wide eyed at Malkira. He wasn't as stupid as he looked. That was until he insulted the being. Calxiyn bowed. "Pay no attention to him, it's been a long journey he's tired, doesn't even know what he's saying." "The answer is 'Tomorrow', is that correct?" "Indeed. Is anyone wiser than Malkira?" Calxiyn turned to Malkira, and Balthazar laughed heartily. "I wonder if that's a question, or if he's insulting you. Think about this one, we can't afford an incorrect answer." Octo
Octo Calxiyn crossed her arms. The water was barely at the soles of their shoes. "Well I guess that makes sense." "You're all very bright, but the riddles will only get harder. There are as many as those who have failed here, if I think correctly." "The answer are the moons and the stars." Calxiyn told the Ichthyocentaur. "Very clever, but the next is not as easy. I never was, am always to be, No one ever saw me, nor ever will And yet I am the confidence of all To live and breathe on this terrestrial ball." Deka Johanna used Fairy Ray.

Zachary explained, getting into the carriage. He sat Samantha on his lap, in order to make room for the others. Leo and Dominique were already at the front driving, but even still there was only space for 4 people. "I don't know if Preminger is ordinary or not. She didn't show talent for magic, but maybe she has something else up her sleeve." Samantha said, pushing up her glasses. The group headed back to the Castle, but the man at the gate sneered at them. "Excuse me, sir, this is the carriage of Princess Dominique, please, let us pass." Dominique asked him. "The Princess Dominique has already left the Castle. The gates are closed for the Wedding, there is no sneaking in!"
"Caliborn is supposed to make sure we stay safe, and that's what he was doing." She told Malkira. "A solid room... no door..." Calxiyn looked around. She tapped the walls, which were hard as marble. "I think you're missing the general direction we must go in, young one." Balthazar chuckled. "The only way out of this room, is down. I hope you brought your swim trunks." Balthazar jumped into the pool of water, and swam down. "Wait, Balthazar!" Calxiyn groaned. "We don't know what's down there, but we better follow him." Calxiyn jumped into the water as well. There was another room, similar to the last, there was another pool, and the room was decorated by gold and silver. Different from the last room, though, there were holes in the walls. Balthazar was on the other side, and moving towards the creature. "Balthazar wait, what is that?" Calxiyn asked, pulling on his sleeve. "It is an Ichthyocentaurs, or ikhthyokentauroi." Balthazar told the girl. "Ichthyocentaur comes from two different words, ichthyo- and centaur. Ichthyo- comes from the Greek word ιχθύς, or ikhthis, which means fish; and of course, centaur, or centaurus in Latin." Balthazar continued. "It isn't a "What" but it's a who." He poked the girl in the forehead knowingly. Suddenly, what seemed like a statue of the centaur, came to life. "Excuse me, sir, we uh, wish to pass." Calxiyn went closer to the centaur. "Answer the following riddles, before the time runs out. The water will rise, and your journey will come to an end. Only the wisest are to hold in their hands, the Hand Of Midas. First, answer me this, travelers, and win honestly." "That makes sense. Ok, you're on." "At night they come without being fetched, and by day they are lost without being stolen." The Centaur told them, and as soon as the riddle ended, water started to rise. Deka ] Cassandra grabbed both wizards, and they were on their way. Quinn was in front of them, but even still, she wasn't trailing far behind. "Erigor, halt at once!" Cassandra shouted, as she saw the Wizard up ahead. "So you were able to break through my wind barrier. You little flies can be such an annoyance. You are in my way kids, so begone." Erigor shot a blast of magical energy at Cassandra, who tried to hold her position, but dropped Caleb. "Caleb!" Cassandra shouted, swooping down to grab him once again. "The air never suited you, girl. Why don't you stay on the ground, unless you want to drop those Guild Members of yours." Cassandra landed on the ground, placing down Aoki and Caleb. "I don't suppose either of you can fly, on your own." "Do either of you even know how to use a magic mobile?" Kageyama asked them both, trying to get up. "Magical Vehicles are solely available for a Mage's use, and are powered by an SE-plug (Self-Energy plug), which is a small, special device that powers Magical Vehicles. It is a mechanism that wraps around the user's wrist, converting their Magic Power into fuel. Should the user require the vehicle in question to go faster, more Magic Power will be consumed. What you're looking at is a Magic Four Wheel Vehicle 8480. One of you need to drive, and the rest need to pile in."
Well I mean, Axel is in grieving. He was fighting against his best friend, and then Sora, who reminds him and touches his heart as much as Roxas does. Fighting against Roxas must have been really hard for him, considering everything they went through together. The second time, he's fighting by Sora's side. It's like he's fighting along side his best friend again, like they were in Days. That has to bring something out of him. Axel says himself that Roxas made him feel like he had a heart, and Sora made him feel the same way. I see that it could be possible Axel's so exhausted, because it is physically hurting him to have to, 1st, fight against Roxas, and then second, fight along side Sora. It brings so many memories to the surface, and it makes him feel something, and feeling things aren't something that Nobodies are used to. It would be something his body wouldn't be used to either, and it could be doing stuff to him.
Kingdom of Elamos Jinx laughed dryly. "Why don't you listen to common sense, and your Prince." She spat. "I keep telling you, we are your friends, or will you risk otherwise just to feed your revenge? You're no better then us, if you do. But do what you want, the blood is on your hands. How in the world will you explain to Evanora, though, I wonder?" Jinx started to laugh some more. "If you're lucky she may banish you, like she did to Ezekiel. I hear that multidimensional desert is nice this time of year. Nice and hot. Just like hell."
Well, if Marluxia wasn't at least a little suspicious, there's always that question of "Power over what?". If Marluxia didn't think that there was something worth it to be overthrowing the Organization for, I don't think he would have done it. Marluxia doesn't seem so bothered by the fact he doesn't have a heart. It doesn't seem like he really cares (Tee hee). I don't think he was trying to get out of anyone's control per say, and getting his "Freedom" back seems a bit unnecessary, especially because he can do whatever he wants in C.O (Castle Oblivion) Marluxia was set to be in C.O, and in a cut scene in KH 2 Final Mix Spoiler Xemnas sent Xigbar and Xaldin to recruit more members, and they needed a large group to run the castle. The Castle is used for the Replica Project etc. The flashback in FInal Mix takes place in between BBS and KH, and Xigbar and Zexion talk about the castle and the Chamber of Repose, which has Aqua's armor and Keyblade in it, and that Xemnas constructed in Radiant Garden while he was Xehanort (Apparently he visits there all the time). Xigbar believed that Xemnas was looking for the complementary Chamber of Waking, and that this place might be somewhere in C.O So the reason I'm bringing that up is because, Xigbar really has no filter. Basically through 358/2, 2, and what we see of him in BBS, he doesn't filter out information at all, and if he so casually talked to Zexion about all that, who knows who else he would have told. Especially the people who he knew were going to the castle. We see that Xigbar likes to start drama and problems, he gets a rise out of it, so what I imagine happening with that was that after Xigbar told that to Zexion, there was at least a rumor about what Xemnas was really after at C.O and really, in general. It goes far beyond just Kingdom Hearts. Then after Marluxia found out, Marluxia made this plan, and somehow, probably through because Xigbar told him, Xemnas found out. What I mean to say is that Xigbar is playing for both sides to get some entertainment. He likes to stir the pot. And what better way to do that then to make both sides think the other side is traitorous and scheming. We know basically nothing about Marluxia, but we do know that it was Xigbar that found him. Xigbar who can't keep his mouth shut to save his life, and also Marluxia who was going to be sent to the castle anyway, so I feel like Xigbar would have mentioned that to him. If not to Marluxia, then Zexion already knows, and it could travel to Marluxia that way. According to a cut scene in Days Spoiler Saïx asks Axel if he has found the Chamber of Waking, to which Axel replied that it was difficult to find since Castle Oblivion is huge and it is currently unknown if that room was ever found. It is also revealed that Axel would be sent various times by Xemnas to find the room, showing Xemnas's extreme determination to find the Chamber of Waking, yet he never could. Not only does Xigbar know about Xemnas' plan, but so do Axel and Saïx. I mean, at this point, that's two of the, arguably most chatty members of Organization 13 (And Saïx) that all seem to know about this. That doesn't only beg the question of "Who else" but also just makes me think even more that Marluxia had to have known. Someone must have let it slip. I feel like at least Marluxia, if anything, would have known that much. If he wanted power over ANYTHING it would be 2 'Keyblade Wielders', that doesn't even include Xion, the Riku, Replica and Sora. I don't think Marluxia would have gone after any old 'power', but to have all these Keyblade Wielders, that's a whole different kind of power. Way different then just collecting hearts for Kingdom Hearts. He also tells Roxas that he would have made a "Great addition" whether that's to the C.O team, or to Marluxia's Keyblade Master collection, whooo knows. I don't think that "What the Organization would have had planned" goes up to Xehanort's plan which was revealed in 3D. If anything, it's what I mentioned above that Marluxia knew of.
Johanna nodded to Zwei, and then tiptoed out from the cell. They were almost at the door, when Johanna tripped, and used the handle to catch her balance. The Guards woke up, and came running towards them. "I think we can take them, even if it is only us, you're one of the strongest. How about it?" She laughed, getting herself ready for battle. She felt guilty for giving away their position, but at the same time, they were just getting rid of guards who would have probably come back later anyway.

"Banishment... by the Wizards... yes those Wizards. They must have been sent by the Wizard..." She thought to herself silently. "I've met the Wizards of Sapphire Eclipse. They are a bunch of cowards and-" She was shaking as she continued. "They just left you here to die?!" She looked up at the sky. "They would have killed you, is that what they wanted?!" She looked up at the sky. "Because he's affiliated with me... I was working as a member of the resistance and they tried to murder Fiyero..." "I'm sorry, I can barely think clearly and-" She was trembling, tears in her eyes. They fell on her face, and they burned into her skin. "Ugh, tears... they burn like fire." She turned away from him. It seemed indeed there were scars under her eyes, as if she cried so much the burning scarred her face. "You're in the Desert of Ev. Across it, there's The Land of Oz." She pointed. "He must be suffering from some sort of amnesia, probably due to the dehydration... or they put some sort of spell on him."
