A/N: Sorry for the Lack of update... for MONTHS. I really have to stop getting addicted to every game I meet. I'm never forgetting this thing though- so enjoy an extra long chapter for now ;3

The last Chapters received quite a bit of reviews! Thank you to: talesfangirl (LOL at your review), Roxel forever (Sorry, but I have other plans for Roxas and Ven. You'll know when I get to that), fostofina, delphigirl689, Ashley3wl, Twilight Cardmistress, and Athena Julilette (thanks for the advice XD), and an anonymous reviewer... with nothing to call with. Pardon.

And for people who added this story to their Favorites/Alerts This story is built of your love!

After more running within the forest boundaries while following Stitch, which Aqua was getting slightly bored at, they arrived in front of a very peculiar vehicle. The Keyblade master even wondered if it was a vehicle at all, because it had a propeller engine, a cockpit fit for two or three, yet the red-hued object really didn't look like something that could fly.

Something bugged inside the Keyblade Master's mind while seeing the aircraft...

"What's it actually for?"

Stitch, hearing this, stopped on his tracks and turned to her.

"Stitch and Aqua use ship, Stitch and Aqua save Lilo!"

Summing Stitch's rather gibberish speak as using the ship to rescue Lilo, which according to Riku was in another spaceship, she climbed inside the vehicle and took a seat, Stitch following shortly after. Then the creature pushed a button, something that Aqua presumed was the way to start the engine. Rather than pressed, the button was rather loudly banged.

But even though extra force was applied in it, the ship didn't budge a bit.

Angered, Stitch started battering at the button, hoping that it would somehow start up. Aqua was getting worried, while they were working on finding out how to start the engine, Gantu's ship could have flown somewhere out of their sight, or even reach. On better observation, it turned out that there are edges of a broken cable poking out from the floor, which Aqua picked up.

"This might be the cause of why the ship won't start..." She wondered to herself. And then she put the cable together, casting blizzard to seal the bond. It happened in the same time as Stitch banged at the button for the umpteenth time, and as the Keyblade master expected, the engine revved up. Stitch pressed his paw to the computer screen and the propeller engines flared up, bringing them to the sky.

Happy with what he thought was a result of his hard work; Stitch grabbed the steering wheel and pulled it. The ship rocketed to the sky, the blue creature steering it in pursue of Gantu's ship.

Aqua sat back as she looked at the ship's dashboard, which said, "Jumba Jookiba's ship of Evil Geniuses"

Riku was extremely worried about Sora; if one says he would be in trouble, most likely he will be in trouble. That was what he had learned over the past years. He increased his pace, hoping he would be able to arrive before the situation gets out of hand.

But when he saw Sora in the clearing, he can't help but having rather humorous thoughts in his head.

"Hey Sora, do I need to get my old clothes to match that attire of yours?"

"Screw you," The brunette spat, glaring. "If you had time for that, release me from this prison!" He poked his Keyblade at an iron cage that held him captive. "I can't break it from inside, and there's no keyhole anywhere, if you ask."

"Fine, I'll do it." Riku walked into the middle of the clearing, his eyes keeping patrol for the enemy that held his friend captive. For a brief moment a large shadow loomed over him, then...

Boom!

Riku failed to jump out of the way in time to avoid the incoming explosion. He was thrown back a few meters, earning a few scratches and an extremely sore back. As he struggled to get up and to cast a Cure spell, he found that the cage, including Sora, was gone.

He saw the large creature before him. Its hands were sealed by chains, and it had a base of steel, floating in the air. Just one look and one can tell that it was powerful enough to crush buildings by itself.

Not a long while later, following the Iron Imprisoner, Sora came running, covered in scratches and bruises, breathe racing and his Keyblade held with both hands. He was wearing his usual black clothes rather than his old one.

"Riku- what are you doing there?" He yelled, slamming his weapon at the Unversed.

"Weren't you in that cage before!"

"Yes, it almost got me a couple of times, but I broke it after a few tries,"

A single thought ran into Riku's mind- that was an illusion, a trap. And he fell for it very easily.

His anger rose, more to the grudge of being humiliated rather than Sora getting injured in the midst of the battle. He drew his Keyblade and charged at the enemy, thrusting his blade and piercing through the creature's shoulder. When he was about to land and charge for another attack, Sora caught his left hand.

"Shall we try that?"

Riku was about to reply that with a question, but soon caught the point of what he was talking about. Keyblades clashing together and backs against each other, the two of them readied a battle stance.

"Eternal Session!"

"Ah, Human cultures are very attractive indeed!" said a one-eyed, yellow-skinned mysterious creature that was walking the forest trails along with his companion, a fat creature with a big nose, a big belly, and a bluish-purple skin. The thin one was wearing lipstick, beach hat, and a dress, with the dress spilling into the muddy ground they were walking on. "I might have to wash it again,"

"Yes, yes they are. You had said that for a million times for now. And also about the mosquitoes"

"Ah yes, the mosquitoes- I was so proud that I was able to donor my blood for them! After all, they were endangered species that only exist in Area 51..." he stopped for a moment, trying to remember something. "I mean, earth!"

"Enough with that, Pleakley- I must tell you that our mission is not to breed mosquitoes, but to capture experiment 626."

"Yes, I understand..." Pleakley answered him, a little let down by Jumba Jookiba's answer. He then focused of the road he was taking, and promptly stopped. "In the name of mosquitoes-!"

"I said stop talking about the mosquitoes!" Jumba yelled, annoyed. Then he also looked into the same direction. "-In the name of scientific reality."

The hut they were residing in was in shambles. The wall was crushed, the front door pulled out from its hinges, the stairways totally crushed, and several craters from the ground. In the center of the mess, however, were two boys, laughing and covered in dirt and bruises.

"Hey, you two!" Jumba yelled. Sora and Riku promptly stopped laughing, and sent nervous looks at each other. "What have you done to our house, huh?"

"We've done nothing!" Sora argued. "There's this big creature that kidnapped Lilo and another big creature came along with it, and..."

"Arr, enough with all those excuses!" Jumba cut the brunette off, an angered tone in his voice. "Now you pay for the building's repair and whatnot!"

"Wait... Jumba!" Pleakley swung his hands in front of the scientist, preventing him from venting off his steam at the two. "These guys said something about Lilo!"

"What? You know Lilo?" the fat alien eyed them suspiciously, as if to imply that Sora and Riku were convicted for arson, murder, and jaywalking.

"Yes we do! And we do know that a fifteen-foot tall alien is taking her away as we speak; and Stitch is chasing him!" Sora replied, finding difficulties to get along with the grumpy alien. "Rather than arguing about nonsense here, why don't we go chase the alien and save the damsel?"

"What alien? The only aliens here are me and Jumba..." Pleakley trailed off in the middle of his sentence. "Or did this peculiar, suspicious fifteen-foot tall alien bring his own ship?"

"A big, black, menacing one at that," Riku, who was the witness of the ship, replied.

"Oh."

An awkward silence then ensued. But after a short pause, Pleakley was holding Jumba's shoulder with both hands and shaking him furiously.

"It's Gantu, Jumba! It's Gantu! He's here and he's after experiment 626! He's also taken Lilo hostage! And I'm sure he's going to report us to the headquarters!" He said, before taking a deep breath in and falling into his knees. "And I'm going to be taken prisoner! I don't want to be a prisoner..." His head was touching the ground as he said that, sobbing occasionally. "Am I doomed like this?" he wailed.

Riku hesitantly stared at the sulking alien, being more than a little bit overwhelmed by his actions. "Is he... always acting like this?"

"Always," replied Jumba, pulling Pleakley up. "I'm pretty sure we know the alien you were talking about. Mind if we use our ship for the pursuit?" He brought out a black-and red device similar to what we call a remote control from his clothes.

Riku eyed the object suspiciously, trying to figure out the object's purpose, while Sora stepped closer, despite his former opinion about how Jumba was pissing him off. He looked at the item curiously, wondering what it would do. Jumba just ignored him and began typing in codes to his gadget.

Sora and Riku waited anxiously for the fat alien to finish typing in commands for the device. In their minds, various images of what would the ship looked like formed, ranging from the shape of Gummi ships to a laser-shooting aerial skateboard.

All they met was silence, followed by Jumba slamming the meant thing and the two boys' imaginations into the floor. "Dammit! The ship was hijacked!"

"What should we do? What should we do?" Pleakley screams in panic, running in circles with Jumba as its center. The scientist then brought out his left hand, letting it slam at Pleakley's poor face. The reaction was an ouch', followed by Jumba clearing his throat as Pleakley was rubbing his face.

"If worse comes to worst... The final option is to hijack a ship for ourselves"

Sora was grateful that the aliens were actually residents of this area, because they won't have the time just for asking people around for the airport's location. They had grabbed the blue car that was thrown outside the house not very long ago, and though it was dented, everyone had thanked the fact that it would still move. Riku took the driver's seat and Pleakley acted as a guide, while the last two took the back seat and not even making eye contact with each other. When they arrived at the airport they quickly drove through to the line of airplanes and stopped in front a single airplane, one which was probably for military use because it was quite small.

Of course, considering that they broke into the garage, the alarm blared white emanating a red light. Everyone cussed, knowing they would deal with some kind of security system, but they made their way inside the plane anyway.

"Attention, please leave the plane at once," the voice was barely heard by the group because of the alarm blaring was just as loud, if not louder. "If you do not leave, we will have to take security measures. I repeat..."

"Like hell it's going to stop us!" Sora took the driver's seat, settled himself, and attempted to figure out the controls of the airplane.

But, he failed to find anything. He had expected to find only the gas meter, the steering wheel, and the trigger- but what he found was more than that- there were at least 20 meters on the panel. Sora cursed a little in his mind, at the same time wondering why they should make such troublesome systems.

The sudden realization than dawned unto him- airplanes are much more complicated than Gummi Ships. He turned his head back nervously, not daring to touch anything. He feared that he would screw up and the plane would blow up on them or fail the launching by smacking on a nearby wall. "Does anybody here know how to drive a plane...?"

"Like hell it's gonna stop us... yeah, right," Riku retorted, feeling the urge of putting a palm on his face. "You better do something fast, I bet the security's coming after us right about now."

"If ye're lookin' for someone to fly the ship, why not choose Pleakley?" Jumba patted the back of his alien friend hard, it sent the latter to a coughing feat, which might be caused by both the statement and the patting. "He's an expert when it comes to unknown things, especially in this planet"

"W-w-wait a second!" Pleakley stuttered. "You can't be serious! Why me, of all people?"

Everyone's eyes were pointed to Pleakley in that second, and the entrance door, which had been locked by Sora, was being banged hard. Riku winced a bit, he was sure that it was the security people coming inside. He didn't want his face to be shown to public as criminals, not in a world he's not even familiar of. He intensified his glare against Pleakley, who visibly flinched in reaction.

"...We don't have a choice, do we?"

"Watch out!"

Stitch turned the steering wheel violently to the right, barely missing a laser beam aimed directly at the cockpit of their ship. Aqua was having an adrenaline attack- when usually she would try to solve things the calm way; there was nothing she can do when she was not the one in control. She felt the urge to yell at Stitch and tell him to drive at a gentler pace, but she was unable to drive the ship by herself. If only this was her Keyblade Glider, she would have taken control of it long ago.

Stitch was not one to give up either, he kept charging against the big, black ship at full velocity while trying his best to avoid any incoming laser beams. Aqua was in charge of checking on the wire she ice-bonded earlier and any incoming attacks Stitch had missed. If Lilo wasn't trapped there, screaming for Stitch to help her, Aqua wouldn't hesitate to freeze the rockets and let it fall down to the sea. Problem is, she couldn't- it's too dangerous to do just that.

Aqua had just realized it wasn't the time to be complaining when she heard an explosion near her position. It came with a vibration- enough to indicate that the plane's balance was disturbed. Recovering from the shock, she realized that the earth's surface was closing on them, in quite a pace at that.

"Attention, we are losing altitude," the machinated assistant software spoke, alerting them on the situation. Aqua was still trying to hold on to the faith that she would survive, and that was one heavy hit to her faith. "The fuel is running low, and the balancing unit has been disturbed,"

Aqua cringed a bit at the sight after that. Stitch was yelling at the machine in a language she can't even understand, maybe telling it to shut up, But still pulled on the ramps as if there was a chance, even how little, to save Lilo- a chance that she had actually threw away when she saw Gantu escaping with a spaceship.

But the little blue creature kept on trying, even if there was almost zero chance.

"Lilo... Stitch... Ohana..." Stitch pulled the steering wheel as hard as he could, in an attempt to raise the plane's altitude. Its body was sweating. It was gritting its own teeth and he was only relying on sheer willpower. Stitch, who wasn't even human, was struggling for its family- its friend. "Nobody... gets left ...behind..."

As if in reflex, Aqua summoned her Keyblade, pointed it at the gargantuan ship in front of her, as shimmers of light gathered on its silver tip and grew bigger in size. Stitch kept on pulling the steering wheel, managing to get in an altitude higher than Gantu's ship which was nearing the edge of troposphere.

"Bend the hands of time Slow!"

The blob of light on Aqua's Keyblade inflated as it was released, growing bigger and bigger as it swallowed the ship Gantu was in. The vehicle slowed down dramatically, and the distance between the two ships shortened and shortened to the state that the ship Aqua was riding was exactly above it. Stitch let out a "wow" and cheered himself for being able to catch up. But... the problem was far, far away from over.

"Go, Stitch!" Aqua shouted to little blue creature, which rolled up to a ball almost immediately after hearing the Keyblade master. Aqua took a position beside the window, and then she threw Stitch towards the ship.

Noticing that the ship needs a driver, Aqua moved herself to the driver's seat, and she pulled the steering wheel in order to keep their altitude. She wasn't surprised that it didn't work, but she attempted to make sure the ship will make a soft landing- at least so it won't crush to the sea.

In her journey towards the world's surface, she noticed an airplane flying wildly in the sky. Aqua was quite afraid that it would collide with her ship, and so avoided contact. The airplane's window opened, revealing a spiky spot of brown that seemed familiar.

"Aqua!"

Then she realized who it was.

"Sora!" she yelled, spotting Sora who was waving at her from the seemingly unbalanced airplane. "What are you doing there?"

"Pleakley's having trouble flying the ship- that's not the time now! Get over here, now!" Sora replied, shouting in order for his voice to reach Aqua in the midst of the noise from both planes.

Aqua tried her best to keep her cool, contemplating on a way for her to be able to reach a ship that was far in distance and higher in altitude from her. Zero Gravity would work, but she could not control it- much less using Aero.

Then an idea crossed her mind.

"Sora!" she yelled. "Try to get your plane here!"

"You got that!" came the reply. Aqua took a deep breath, letting magic trickle on her fingers. She opened the ship's door, stood before it, and as her feet pushed forward, launching her to the open air, her keyblade was pointed to the ground.

"Zero Gravity!" she yelled, the magic kept her suspended in the air as Pleakley drove the airplane towards her. Sora opened the airplane's door, stretched his arm as far as he could, and in the split second when the airplane swooped over he caught Aqua by the hand and pulled her in.

And by the time Sora had, Aqua cancelled the magic so she would not be floating inside the airplane.

"What fine lass- Aqua's her name?" asked Jumba, slightly wooing the Keyblade- Master.

"Yes, I am Aqua. It's a pleasure to meet you..." she offered her hand, meeting with the other's big, fleshy one. They both exchanged smiles for a while, each trying to judge the other's character. Soon their grips tightened, and they released not long after.

"Aqua, where's Stitch?" Riku asked, unable to locate the blue-furred little dog'. "He's with you all the time, isn't he?"

"Well..." Aqua stopped a bit, searching her brain for proper words to explain the current situation. "He's on that ship trying to save Lilo. " she pointed at the currently suspended ship.

The others cannot help but rush to the windows, worried about the little fellow. Stitch was there, crawling from inside the ship to the capsule that contained Lilo, a strange backpack attached to his body.

"That's a parachute- that creature sure has a good train of thought," Riku commented.

It was easy for Stitch to melt the glass with acidic goo, and after pulling Lilo out, he grabbed her into a tight hug and jumped off the ship together- of course not forgetting to pull the parachute's inflator cord.

Gantu, who had been under the effect of the slow spell- didn't even know that Stitch had slipped in his ship and freed Lilo.

Well, Sora and Riku sure knew, and they took this as an opportunity for payback. They both pointed towards Gantu's ship, and with a mutual smile, shot Firaga from their Keyblades and scorched the side of the ship.

Needless to say, it crashed to the forest below as soon as the slow spell wore off.

Days later...

"It's a good thing the alliance was present- capturing Gantu was made a lot easier," Pleakley commented cheerily. "After all, nobody has the right to mess up with area 51 I mean, Earth!"

Riku, Sora, and Aqua were happy to hear this- but a problem still rested in their heads. They have been staying at the inn for some time, and they didn't have any actual business in this world- they have to go sooner or later, but how?

Stitch noticed their worries, and then pulled at Lilo's dress. He then made a series of gestures, which could hardly be understand- even by Lilo, and after a whole minute, Lilo finally understood the meaning.

"Jumba," she called, "Have you repaired the ship yet?"

Jumba turned his head to face Lilo, a little bit appalled to have a little girl ask about his ship. "Of course I have! This evil genius would have anything done in a second!"

"But you're planning to stay here, right?"

"Uh... yes... more or less so..." he answered.

"Why don't we lend the ship to Sora and his friends?" Lilo smiled as she said this. "After all, they saved Stitch and me, right?"

Jumba was hesitant. It was his ship after all. He could not let go of it very easily. But Lilo's eyes were very pleading. And to add salt to injury, Stitch mirrored her action. Jumba made Stitch as a killing machine... but he also had to admit that it was ridiculously cute for a killing machine.

"I suppose so..." Jumba trailed off. "Fine, it goes as the little girl wished."

"Yay!" Lilo exclaimed, almost jumped. "I have to let them know about this! Aren't you happy too, Stitch?" she asked. Stitch nodded at this, and they went after the trio who were sitting around a circular table, drinking coconut water.

"Sora! Riku! Aqua!" She shouted, "Jumba said you three can use his ship!"

"Seriously!" Sora exclaimed, his eyes lit up with an unexplainable glee. "That's awesome!" Then he glanced at both Riku and Aqua, who had smiles on their faces as well.

"Well, we have to say goodbye pretty soon, then..." as Aqua stood up, Stitch came over to her and pulled out a star-shaped item from her pocket.

"A-koo-wah... friends?" it asked. Expectant beady eyes meeting somewhat melancholic, aquamarine eyes, Aqua then sat down beside the creature.

"Of course, Stitch," Aqua replied, holding the Wayfinder together with him. "We're best friends,"

"Aww..." Sora cooed at the sight. "Such sweet moments."

~Disney Castle~

"Kairi, try harder!" said Goofy, Preparing his shield for impact. "It's a training, but let's treat it as if real battle, a-hyuck!"

Kairi pointed her Keyblade at Goofy's shield, sending shards of Ice towards its center and charging through for direct attack. She slashed her Destiny's Embrace a few times across the metal shield, creating a clanking noise each time the weapons connected.

Donald joined the fray, shooting balls of flame which Kairi ducked and ended up hitting Goofy's shield. She then countered with a Thundara, which missed its target ever so slightly.

This kind training has been on for five months, exactly after Kairi had experienced her awakening. She had been much more fluent in using her keyblade and casting magic as of late, and grew accustomed of melee fights much more than before. She had undergone a lot of improvement, and neither Donald nor Goofy could deny it.

Kairi was in a way, the same level as Sora was. Even though their fighting styles differed in a lot of ways, the display of sheer power would place them as equals. Some was thanks to the King's teachings and patience, but Kairi's growth rate was also incredible.

It was, after all, only had been 5 months.

"That's enough, you three." The three stopped right at once when they spotted King Mickey by the garden they were training on. "I think you three have done well today,"

"Thank you, your majesty!" Kairi, Donald and Goofy bowed their heads as a salute to King Mickey.

"Donald, Goofy, I want you to accompany me to the Mysterious Tower, we are going to meet Master Yen Sid, there are some matters that I have to discuss with him."

"Your Majesty... can I come too?" Kairi asked. She was eager to go, eager to see for herself who was this Master Yen Sid'. It had been five months living only in the castle. She wasn't saying it was boring. She was just getting too anxious about meeting with Sora and Riku.

And going to other worlds would ramp the chances of meeting up... right?

"Kairi..." Mickey looked at her for a moment. "Sorry, but I can't let you come... yet,"

"Aww..." Kairi pouted. "But you'll be back soon, right?"

"That's a promise."

Kairi thought for a moment, but decided she was not going to bother King Mickey for her own selfish reasons. He was a King, after all, and he had problems far more than she could think of.

"Okay, have a safe journey, your Majesty."

~o~o~o~o~o~o~

Well, next we will cover about the Disney trio almost nobody has cared about! And they will have a lot to do with the plot. (Yes I'm as evil as that, if you think it is evil.)

The poll results have come out (for the first world)! The following will be featured on the next chapters:

The Three Musketeers

As for the second... there was a tie between Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Hercules, and Toy Story. by the time I finished the "Three musketeers" line, I'll recheck the poll. Keep voting until then! ;D

And... don't forget to review, too!
