View attachment 48632 He was happy that this was over. They were able to help others which was good. He silently wondered if they could somehow help everyone. That was when Aislinn said, 'I suppose our job here is done. We just have to move forward and make the next stride to becoming masters.' "I guess we should be going." That was when Timon said, 'And to show our appreciation, here's a little do-hicky Pumbaa and I found lyin' aroun.' "Thank you it is time to go." He had no clue how they were going to get back but he was sure a way would show its self. He turned around and saw a portal open up a short distance away. With that done all that was left was to walk through the portal and he did. View attachment 48631 As he walked through the portal he noticed that he seemed to be standing on two feet now. He looked at his arms and legs and everything seemed to be back to normal. He kind of liked being a lion. He could always go back he he wanted. "Well that was interesting." It was kind of a understatement tho. Now that they were keyblade masters he wondered what was next. He turned to the others and said, "I am guessing everything went well." He was not sure what else to say at the moment.
Good luck to the challengers :) The dance has been interesting.
View attachment 48628 He just sat there for a moment then the maid answered him. 'Well, it's happened at least six times since I've been here helping over the last... three months I want to say? There's always fog that rolls into town, we live in a swamp after all.' That did not explain the life that the fog had. 'When we hear the flute, we try to cover our ears and muffle it out. Sometimes we are successful, and sometimes not. When we're not, that's when everyone ends up falling asleep, and then we wake up to find one of children gone. It's very disconcerting.' "Humm interesting." He knew full well that they had to get going soon. As he sat there he tried to keep a eye on the others. He had to say this trip had been helpful. "Is there anything else that happens?" He asked them both. "Is there anything else you can tell me?" He had a feeling about something and if he was right it would explain so much.

View attachment 48626 As he waited for a response he looked out to Thea and Zephyr hoping that they were finding out information too. He then brought his attention back to the little girl. The first thing he noticed was that she seemed to be shying away. "It is OK I am here to help." That was when the maid looked down at the little girl and said, 'Don't be rude, Cindy. It's alright.' The maid then looked up at Gavin and smiled apologetically. 'I'm sorry, she's a little shy. You're the mages that are here to help, right?' "It is fine I remember when I was younger I was not much different and yes we are here to help." He had to hide away his magic, but he was shy because of his magic and hid away because of it. "It is OK Cindy," he said trying to comfort Cindy. 'I dun know what happens when fog wolls in, mister,' she answered honestly as she clutched on the maid's outfit. 'We gotta go to bed eawry, and I stay asweep all nigh. I only heard the floot music a few times, but I always go back to sweep. Even when I wanna stay awake.' That was interesting he found out some things. Now he just had to hope that the others found out some things. "Thank you Cindy." He then turned his attention to the maid. "So, what happens to you when the fog and the music of the flute plays." He was trying to piece the puzzle together and this was just one more piece. Once he got some information from the maid he might be able to put things together. He was starting to get some ideas of what was going on but could not be sure until he got more information and find out what the others found out.
View attachment 48618 Andrew stood there for a moment attack were going were which way. As the assault continued, the dust finally settled, showing that Scar was still standing. How was the lion still standing? He was tired and did not know how long he would last if the battle continued. Scar's dark aura, slowly diminished which was nothing but a good thing. Maybe now they could focus on finding the other members of SOS. That was when Hikaru said, 'Wow, we did it. We returned the king,but.. what about the hyenas?' He did not think that they would be much trouble compared to Scar. That was when Aux, appearing from behind them. He did not look good. Hikaru then asked, 'What happened to you?' The response being, 'Believe you me, you don't wanna know.' After what he had seen of Aux he was sure he could make a few guesses. Simba let loose a mighty roar, which all the other lions joined in on. Aux walked forward and let loose a booming roar of his own. "Umm, Aux, you don't have to-", Hikaru said before being cut off by Aux 'I EARNED THIS DAMMIT!' Aux continued to roar with the other lions. He was not sure what make Aux think he earned it but said nothing. He stood the awkwardly with the loins not sure what to do. He did not feel all that comfortable with what was going on. That was when Simba tapped him lightly and gave him the look of go ahead and you better do this. He was not so sure about this, but he did not have a choice in the manner. He stood with the other lions and let out a roar. As he did so he looked back at the others he wonder what they would do. After that moment was over he walked back to the others. "Well now what?" That was when Pumbaa asked, 'So uhh... what're you guys gonna do now?' He was not sure what to say for a moment. "We continue travailing and find the others," he said simply.
View attachment 48598 Andrew noticed that everyone was doing something with someone and he was feeling left out a little. Kaida seemed to be starting something with Aislinn which left only one person Hikaru. Unfortanty Hikaru seemed to be a little wore out a the moment. He looked to scar and said, "It is time to show you the light." With that said and down he summed his keyblade again and thought show scar the light. Lighting came out of his keyblade and went towards scar. AJ used Thundara on Scar.
View attachment 48595 Andrew felt drained and was not sure what to do about it. He let his keyblade disappear for now. He did not like the idea of getting close to scar but he was not sure what choice he had. Jumping and running at this point he ran at scar and attacked him a few times before returning to defense. AJ used Ground Combo on Scar
View attachment 48593 He had to do something he just was not sure what it was yet. They need a massive heal but the prom was he could not feel the energy do do so. The only thing left was to attack. Before he did so he gave Kaida a I am sorry look. Do something big he thought and mines came out. AJ used Seeker Mine on Scar
View attachment 48576 After he used Seeker Mine on scar he could tell something was different. Scar started to glow with more of a Dark Aura. This can be good.That was when scar started going after everyone. The attack hit and he landed on his side. looking around everyone seemed hurt but there was nothing he could do about it right now. There would be now helping the others if he was dead or knocked out so the best option was to heal himself for now. Heal he thought and a green light appeared. AJ used Curaga on himself
View attachment 48554 Andrew tuned when Hikaru said, 'Well, he's a heartless now right? Whatever he's doing is going to be based on how much we weaken it!' If it was based on damage then there should be a way to get around it. Aislinn then said, 'I don't know if we can stop it from changing, we just do the best with what we have and go for it.' "I guess you are right we just have to do the best we can." He was hoping for the best out come right now. With nothing to do but attack he thought I need earth again and the mines showed up again. AJ used Seeker Mine on scar
View attachment 48551 Gavin stood there for a moment looked at the others. He was a little surprised that Zephyr had been so silent. He would have thought that he would have said something but he did not. With nothing to do but to go and talk to the children he walked into the room. He noticed a few people that he could talk to. There was a 12 year old that looked like a younger version of Maliel, A group of three boys and an older girl was kneeling on the other side of the room, helping a four year old clean her muddy shoes with a smile. Thinking that the best option was to talk to the youngest person he could see he made his way over slowly. Young children were typical the ones that you could get the most truth out of. He walked over to the young girl and took a seat right by her so that he would be on her level. He just smiled at her for a moment. He then said said, "Hello my name name is Gavin and I would like to ask so questions about the music and fog." He thought it might be best to keep it as simple as possible and tried to be as friendly as possible so as to not scare off the child. He waited a moment for the child to process what he just said and then asked, "Can you tell me what happens when you hear the music and sound of a flute? When the fog comes in and what happens with the older children. It is OK if you do not understand it but tell me the best you can", he said with a smile. He was trying to not overwhelm the child with so many questions at once so he only asked a few. While he waited for an answer he looked out to the others to see what they were doing.
View attachment 48548 Andrew tuned and saw lighting coming towards him. This was not good. It hit him and sent him flying and he hit a rock hard. He stared to see random colors. He was barely able to stand. That was when Kaida healed him. "Thanks." There had to be a way to stop Scar form changing forms how was the question. "Any idea how how to stop the changing?" he asked. With that said and done it was time to heal himself. Heal he thought and a glowing light came over him. AJ used Curaga on himself
View attachment 48547 Hikaru seemed to be trying to freeze Scar, which was a interesting way to do things. That was when Scar started to glow with electrical energy with sparks flying off. This battle was a interesting one with all the changes Scar was doing. There had to be a way to do something about that. was was good to use when fighting something electrical? The first thing that he thought of was earth. The only problem he did not think he knew anything about earth spells as he never used one before. I need earth he thought. As he thought this mines appeared out of no where and seemed to chasing Scar. It was interesting to watch. AJ used Seeker Mine on Scar
View attachment 48545 Andrew truned and saw that some light was able to come down from the dark sky. Soon scar used fire on him, which did not end up doing much. He stood there a moment it burned a little but he could tell it was not as powerful as it could have been. The battle seemed to be going somewhat well. That was when Ananta landed on his head which he did not like. It would have been better if she asked first. She then asked, 'Hey, Aj, do you know any magic? Know anything that this Scar guy could be weak to?' He was not sure why she came to him. Did he know any magic? Did she not see the wave of water shoot towards scar moments ago? In a sense magic just seemed to work whenever he thought about it and came out of the keyblade. "For scar the most likely thing is light magic. See how he is glowing with a dark energy that is his weakness? The next best think would be water and lighting as he is wet now but was on fire. if you have none of those then the best thing is defense and healing." He raced off and looked towards the sky. It was time for a thunderstorm. He stood there for a moment. He then pointed his keyblade to the sky and watched as lighting come down and hit Scar square in the body. AJ used Thundara on Scar
View attachment 48544 Andrew turned when Aislinn said, 'Unfortunately for some people. I hope you enjoyed the show at least, it was a pain to put on, but it looks like the king is finally ready to take his place, so I guess it was worth it.' "Unfortunately you can't make everyone happy all of the time." He did not know why Aux had to have a issue with Aislinn. in fact he was getting tired of Aux but that was for another time as, hyenas and lions fought amidst the chaos while Simba and his uncle continued to battle. Exchanging blow after blow, Simba was eventually pinned down again. Simba, catapulted Scar off the ledge with his hind legs before Scar tried to jump on him again. Soon Scar rose from his supposed demise, smiling. The fight was not over yet. Darkness radiated from Scar. Darkness took over scar. Aux then said something about fighting alone. He did not think that Aux got the whole concept but there was nothing he could do at the moment. Soon Aux left leaving only scar there. It looked like the road to master was almost over. Then Kaida summoned out her keyblade and it begin to rain. It was not a bad idea. No seeing a choice in the manner it was time to summon his keyblade. He summoned his keyblade and look right at Scar. We need water and a lot more then rain he thought. As he thought this a wave of water came out of his keyblade and went towards Scar. AJ used Aqua Splash on Scar
View attachment 48542 Kyo soon lead them to an inn where they dropped off their things in their rooms. He was not sure about Thea staying by herself but for the time being he said nothing. Thea then said, 'Well I can always get a bag of... um... rice! Yeah rice. I will get rice and then I will cut a small hole in the bag and then even if that stupid magic works to some extent, but I don't think it will, then you can follow the trail of rice.' "Maybe, I have some other thoughts as well." He did not say them as anyone could be giving the information back to the Mage. When Thea said she did not mind his suggestion he just smiled at her. Soon Kyo lead then to town hall. They approached the large iron gates to the Town Hall, guarded by at least four guards. Two in the front, and two behind the gates. Then Kyo said, 'We're here under Divine Rose's request to see the children, via permission from the mayor.' Then they were let into the front door of the town hall courtyard. Kyo then said, 'They're preparing for supper around this time, but feel free to interview them as you will.' He did not think they would get to go, but they were here now so it was best to make the most of it. A old women showed up and was not to happy to see them. "We are here to stop what is going on", he said simply. Thea then asked, 'So what are we going to ask the kids.' "We find out there version of the story, even if we get little we can cross reference it to what we have been told so far." Some of the things just did not add up. "I say we get the information and leave. Necos likely knows that we are here by now, who we are, and where we are, or where we are going to be. It is likely he is working with someone in town. No mage like that works alone." He was sure of this. He then looked into the Town Hall where the children would have dinner soon.
