Excalibur Stolen and Lost/Archery Tournament (Kairi Version 2)

*(At Camelot that same night, Eraqus and Erika are making a proud happy announcement in the Round Table Chamber, for they, the knights, and their people are celebrating the sixteenth anniversary of the day they became King and Queen of Camelot and the third anniversary of the day Cid’s death inspired them to spread peace and justice everywhere. Among the knights in the Round Table Chamber are Wiggum, Lou, Eddie, and even Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Minnie, Daisy, Clarabelle, Ignitus, Delia. Mr. Mime, and a male dog, with Donald, Goofy, Minnie, Daisy, and Clarabelle still wearing their attires on the day Cid died. Mickey is now wearing a black short-sleeved hooded jacket that he keeps unzipped with silver buttons and a checkered pattern at the hem, a gray short-sleeved shirt with a V-neck, red cropped trousers that are hemmed with the same checkered pattern as the jacket, and yellow and gray shoes.

Delia is now wearing a mint blue hair tie still tying her hair in a ponytail, a light yellow tanktop underneath a pink short-sleeved sweater that fastens with a single fuchsia button at the neck, a periwinkle skirt, and white slip-on shoes. And the male dog is a male dog with gold yellow fur, black floppy ears, a black nose, black claws, a long black tail, and wearing a green collar. He is Pluto, Mickey's loyal pet dog)*

Eraqus: In the sixteen years since Erika and I became King and Queen of Camelot, I have seen a lot of happiness have spread since three years ago, Cid Highwind died helping *(Proudly gestures to the proud smiling Ahkmunrah, Vivi, and Mickey)* my loyal advisors and knight, Ahkmunrah, Vivi, and Mickey, into protecting us and our kingdom, inspiring a lot of people to spread peace and justice everywhere!

Erika: And that has made us happy as the blue sky the sun has made.

*(The knights, Ahkmunrah, Vivi, and Wizardmon applauded a bit)*

Erika: And we shall do Cid proud; By making Camelot as prosperous as ever!

Ahkmunrah: And to top it off, King Eraqus and Queen Erika have announced that every year in Camelot to commemorate Cid's heroic sacrifice, we shall have a summer festival to dedicate his memory and loyalty, along with a few others who bravely died for us, by the six virtues.

Vivi: Loyal, brave, true, kind, pure, and love, in honor of both Cid Highwind, our deceased friends and loved ones, and our kingdom forever.

*(Everyone applauded even more)*

Wiggum, Lou, and Eddie: (During the applause) Long live King Eraqus, Queen Erika, and Cid Highwind!

Mickey, Donald, and Goofy: (During the applause) And our deceased friends and loved ones!

*(After that’s ended, they pulled their swords out while Eraqus prepared to pull Excalibur out)*

Eraqus: Now, let us recite the Oath of….

*(But before he could finish, something crashed through the roof of the chamber, and fifteen figures landed on the table menacingly, breaking all the lights and making the room dark.

They are the Beagle Boys. Everyone recognized Tempest Shadow upon seeing her among the other fourteen figures)*

Goofy: (Whispering in shock) Tempest Shadow?

Donald: (Whispering in surprise) What's she doing here?

Wiggum: (Whispering to Lou and Eddie in suspicion) But who are the others?

Lou: (Whispering) Don't know, Chief.

Eddie: (Whispering) Never seen *them* before.

*(Tempest Shadow and the fourteen villains spot Eraqus, with Erika, Ahkmunrah, and Vivi standing nearby him)*

Mickey: (Whispering) Their majesties!

Donald and Ignitus: (Whispering) Steady….

*(Eraqus prepared to pull Excalibur from its sheath as Erika backed off and the knights, Ahkmunrah, and Vivi prepared to fight beside Eraqus, but then, the unexpected happened; Bebop, Rocksteady, and Preed knocked Eraqus, Ahkmunrah, and Vivi back with their stun laser guns, and just when Eraqus recovered along with Ahkmunrah and Vivi to grab Excalibur again, Pinstripe shoots a single bullet from his tommy gun on his arm, offscreen injuring him, while Tempest Shadow and Preed kicks Ahkmunrah and Vivi down and Demidevimon grabs Excalibur, scabbard and all)*

Erika, Ignitus, and Delia: Eraqus! (Vivi, Ahkmunrah!)

Eraqus: (Groaning a bit in pain) Never mind us! Get Excalibur!

Ahkmunrah and Vivi: (Recovering) Quickly!

*(Realizing the three are right upon seeing Excalibur being stolen, the knight, including Ahkmunrah and Vivi, then charged at Tempest Shadow and the fourteen villains to attack them and grab back Excalibur, but Tempest Shadow and the fourteen villains flew out of there, wearing jetpacks, although Demidevimon can fly, right after Tempest Shadow blasted an electric blast from her hands at the roof to distract everyone else. The knights, including ten figures, Ignitus, Delia, Mr. Mime, Ahkmunrah, Vivi, and Wizardmon chased after them, but they failed to stop them due to the fifteen getting away fast. Then the knights quickly took action to tell the newsboy to spread the news and go after Excalibur)*

Ahkmunrah and Vivi: Spread the word!

Delia: Excalibur’s been stolen!

*(Then Wizardmon arrived, stopped that order, and looked out at the horizon in a calm hopeful way)*

Wizardmon: My fellow knights, bandicoots, and mask, protect the sword!

*(Up in the air above the canopy of the Forbidden Forest, Demidevimon, carrying Excalibur, Tempest Shadow, Bebop, Rocksteady, Dijon, Ripper, Koala, Pinstripe, the Komodo Brothers, Rilla, Preed, and the Beagle Boys were flying silently with evil smirks, except Tempest Shadow who just gave a calm silent cold glare of determination, when suddenly, something struck both Rocksteady and Preed on their own left legs. It was some kind of magic spell, and they turned to see a tiki mask, a Dream Eater, six anthro bandicoots, three boys and three girls, and two young knights, a male and a female, with the eight latters all grown up from Chapter 1, going after them in determination. The tiki mask is a male tiki mask with red, blue, and yellow feathers on top, glowing yellow eyes, pink wooden lips, and brown wooden skin. He is Aku-Aku. The Dream Eater is a small male tiger-like spirit with gray fur accented by black stripes, a large spherical head with small ears, narrow blue eyes, a white snout, stubby, fingerless limbs, and a stubby tail, and wearing a gold and blue cape that conceals a Spirit sigil on his back and a small pink purse around his neck that bears the Lux emblem. He is Chirithy. The first male bandicoot is a male bandicoot with orange fur, pink ear innards, dark orange eyebrows, a gold yellow underbelly, a black nose, green eyes, a dark orange spiky mohawk on top of his head, and wearing brown red leather fingerless gloves, blue pants, white socks, and red shoes with white shoelaces and soles. He is Crash Bandicoot. The second male bandicoot is a male bandicoot with little bit muscular arms, red fur, dark red ear innards, black eyebrows, a butter yellow muzzle and underbelly, short dark red spiky emo-like hair, a black nose, brown eyes, a silver mechanical left arm and hand, and wearing a white furred shoulder plate on his left shoulder with a light brown support belt and two buckles, one gray and the other gold, black pants with a navy blue armored waistline, black knee-high armored boots, and sometimes wields a silver thick-bladed sword with a navy blue handle and red orange Wumpa fruit outlines on both sides of the blade. He is Sombra Bandicoot. The last male bandicoot is a male muscular anthro bandicoot with red brown fur, light pink ear innards, dark brown eyebrows, a small red brown mohawk-shaped patch of fur on top of his head, a tiny dark brown goatee, a black nose, blue eyes, a peach underbelly, a silver mechanical cyborg-like right forearm and right hand, and wearing a silver armored armband on his left shoulder, a black belt with a silver buckle, green and black army camouflage pants, and red boots with white shoelaces and soles. He is Crunch Bandicoot. The first female bandicoot is a female bandicoot with a slim figure, orange fur, pink ear innards, long wavy blonde shoulder-length hair, long black eyelashes, pink eyeshadow, a small black nose, green eyes, red lipstick-wearing lips, a gold yellow muzzle and underbelly, a small bobbed tail, and wearing a pink tanktop with a white neck rim, straps, and outline of Crash Bandicoot's face, a brown belt with a silver buckle, navy blue denim minishorts, white socks, and red and white converse shoes. She is Tawna Bandicoot, Crash's girlfriend. The second female bandicoot is a female bandicoot with orange fur, pink ear innards, long blonde hair tied in a ponytail, a small black nose, aqua blue eyes, a gold yellow muzzle and underbelly, and wearing a white short-sleeved shirt with pink rims, a pink beaded bracelet on her right wrist, a pink flower behind her right ear, blue overalls with a pink heart-shaped patch on her right knee, a pink leather belt with a gold buckle, a pair of brown aviator goggles with gray rims and cyan lenses on her forehead, and pink shoes with white shoelaces and soles. She is Coco Bandicoot, Crash's little sister and Sombra's girlfriend. The last female bandicoot is a female bandicoot with a slightly muscular figure, orange fur, pink ear innards, short spiky blonde mohawk-like hair with blue dye streaks, long black eyelashes, a small black nose, green eyes, pale pink lipstick-wearing lips, a gold yellow muzzle and underbelly, and wearing three tiny gold hoop-shaped earrings on her right ear, a pink tanktop with a blue and yellow line decal design on her chest area, a blue bandana around her neck, a brown short-sleeved leather jacket with spikes on the shoulders, brown leather gloves with metal braces that are fingerless except her ring fingers, tight blue patched legging-like jean pants with three brown leather belts, one thick one around her waist holding a whip/grappling hook and the other two are thin, one around her waist and the other on her right leg, and dark brown steel-toed boots with pink leg warmers. She is Sonya Bandicoot, Tawna's twin sister and Crunch's girlfriend. The male young knight is a 12 year old boy with pointy ears, short spiky blonde hair, green eyes, two tiny red oval-shaped blush marks on his cheeks, and wearing a blue sleeveless jumpsuit, white gloves, blue shoes, and a white headband with a red jewel set in it, and sometimes wears two small red shoulder pads. He is Knuckle Joe. And the female young knight is a girl that is identical to Tiff, but 12 years old, with white skin, long white hip-length hair, angular light blue eyes, indigo pupils, rosy pink blush marks on her cheeks underneath her eyes, and wearing a green bandana, an orange sleeveless jumpsuit, brown boots and gloves with two olive green callus-like formations (Something akin to brass knuckles, possibly to enhance her punching ability), and a pale green cape with a collar, and sometimes carries around a transformable weapon that appears to have been manufactured by Nightmare Enterprises, as evidenced by its symbol on some parts of the weapon. She is Sirica. Even Knuckle Joe, Sirica, and the bandicoots are wearing jetpacks and they, Aku-Aku, and Chirithy zipped at Tempest Shadow and the fourteen villains, making them stop in their tracks. The mutants fired at the ten, but they dodged and zipped by, with Aku-Aku headbutting the Beagle Boys on the way and Knuckle Joe making Demidevimon drop Excalibur by punching Preed right into him while zipping by him. After the fifteen recovered, both sides noticed Excalibur falling towards the Forbidden Forest and dove after it. But unfortunately, just when Tempest Shadow almost grabbed Excalibur, the sword then fell through the canopy, disappearing into the Forbidden Forest, making Aku-Aku, Chirithy, the bandicoots, Knuckle Joe, and Sirica stop in their tracks along with a calm shocked Tempest Shadow while Demidevimon, Oxide, Dijon, the mutants, and Beagle Boys continued charging at the canopy. Suddenly, some wooden thorned arms of a group of creatures called the Living Trees shot out, finally making Demidevimon, Preed, Dijon, the Beagle Boys, and mutants stop and fly upwards to safety to Tempest Shadow. Then one arm grabbed Dijon's pants and Dijon, while tugging on his pants, struggled to escape its clutches in a panic, until the Beagle Boys blasted the arm with Bebop and Rocksteady's stun laser gun after swiping them, and then the Living Trees’ arms disappeared below the canopy upon the one that grabbed Dijon and then shot by the Beagle Boys releasing its grip on Dijon. Afterwards, both sides, except a relieved Dijon who re-secured his freed pants again, glared at each other, and then Tempest Shadow, Dijon, Demidevimon, the mutants, Beagle Boys, and Preed flew off to go somewhere, while Aku-Aku, Chirithy, the bandicoots, Knuckle Joe, and Sirica returned to Camelot. In the Forbidden Forest, two groups of shadowy figures hidden in separate areas, have witnessed the whole thing from afar and left for something. Even the Kodama and Wisps, who saw the whole thing, acknowledged the situation and then, seeing that there's nothing they could do about it for now, then returned to what they're doing. Later, once Aku-Aku, Chirithy, the bandicoots, Knuckle Joe, and Sirica are back in Camelot's castle, they reported Excalibur’s disappearance to Eraqus, whose wound is being washed and nursed, Erika, Ignitus, Delia, Mr. Mime, Ahkmunrah, Vivi, Wizardmon, and the knights, much to their shock)*

Everyone except Aku-Aku's group: What?!

Mickey: Excalibur's lost?!

Donald: In the Forbidden Forest?!

Wizardmon: Are you sure?

Sirica: Affirmative, Wizardmon!

Aku-Aku: It just disappeared beneath the canopy.

Knuckle Joe: Right into the Forbidden Forest.

Chirithy: Then Tempest Shadow and those thieves got away.

Knight 1: We got to stop them and see what they want with Excalibur.

Knight 2: And quickly!

Wiggum: And we need to find Excalibur first before them!

Sonya: But what about King Eraqus' condition?

*(Silence as everyone got concerned upon hearing Sonya)*

Eddie: Do you have any suggestions, you're majesty?

*(Then Eraqus, his arm now getting bandaged, got determined and spoke up)*

Eraqus: I’m afraid I’m too injured to go find Excalibur.

Erika: Eraqus is right.

Vivi: And Ahkmunrah and I are afraid we can't assist you on the search either.

Ahkmunrah: On account that we have to tend his majesty's injury.

*(They and Eraqus turned to a newsboy)*

Erika: Go deliver the message across our lands.

Ahkmunrah: Spread the word.

Eraqus: And find volunteers to take mine, Ahkmunrah, and Vivi's place in the search at once.

Newsboy: Yes, you’re majesties, Vivi, and Ahkmunrah.

Knight 1: And what about us knights?

Eraqus: While the volunteers go and find Excalibur, you and the knights go and find the villains who tried to steal it.

Knight 1: Okay.

Knight 2: We won’t let you down.

Delia: (To Mr. Mime) Mimey?

Mr. Mime: (In question) Mime?

Delia: Go help in the search.

Mr. Mime: (Salutes in determination and agreement) Mime!

Knight 1: Okay.

Knight 2: We won’t let you down.

*(The knights clamored in agreement and they and Mr. Mime left, except for Wiggum, Lou, Eddie, Mickey, Donald, and Goofy)*

Sonya: What about you six?

Minnie: What will you hopefully do about it?

Wiggum: We want to be among the volunteers to look for Excalibur.

Mickey: We can't just sit back and do nothing whatsoever.

Lou, Eddie, Donald, and Goofy: (Nods in agreement) That's right.

*(After contemplating upon hearing them say that, Eraqus and the others gave in)*

Eraqus and Erika: Very well.

Ahkmunrah and Vivi: We wish you luck.

*(Wiggum's group nods in agreement and gratitude. Hidden nearby, some shadowy figures have overheard the mission and then left secretly for something. They're not the only ones who listened in. There were a few other shadowy figures outside Camelot, who have heard the whole thing and followed after the shadowy figures. Even nearby from afar, two other shadowy figures, one of them a lot more menacing than the first two groups of shadowy figures, then left in another direction to where Tempest Shadow and the fourteen villains left in. Later the next morning in a town nearby the apartment, it is crowded with people looking concerned from the news of Excalibur’s disappearance in the Forbidden Forest. Even the residents of the apartment were there walking around when they heard the soft clamoring, except Kairi, Camille, Rinoa, and Morpheus, that is. Inside a boutique, Rinoa had Kairi and Camille try on new outfits in the form of two dresses. Kairi is now wearing a white headpiece covering her hair, neck, and shoulders, a gold headband, a shiny light pink long-sleeved silk dress with pale periwinkle lace rims on the wrists and a gold neckline and large gold hem of her dress, a gold necklace with a gold seashell pendant, white stockings, a gold belt with with a long gold sash draping down the waist, and purple shoes. And Camille is now wearing a pink short-sleeved coronation dress with poofy sleeves, a pale pink neck rim, a red ribbon on her chest part, a high white frilly collar, and red lining on the bottom part of her skirt, gold yellow cuffs, a long, flowing red royal cape with fluffy white trimming, a gold crown with red gems, a gold headband, gold earrings, and pink shoes, but still has her pearl hair scrunchie. As Rinoa and Morpheus looked at Kairi and Camille with calm wonder, Rinoa spoke up)*

Rinoa: You look beautiful.

Kairi: (Looking at her outfit, unamused) Yeah, beautiful and gorgeous.

Camille: (Looking at her outfit, unamused) Really nice.

Morpheus: (Agreeing, unamused) Indeed.

*(Hearing their tones, Rinoa just remained calm and then tried to think up of something positive to say to Kairi)*

Rinoa: Kairi.... Just.....

*(Then she found the right words)*

Rinoa: Be who you are, along with Camille.

*(Later, after paying for the dresses, Kairi, still wearing her dress and her main attire all packed up in a bag, Camille, also still wearing her dress and her main attire also packed up in the same bag, Rinoa, and Morpheus exited the boutique and then noticed the people and their group looking concerned with the newsboy, Wiggum, Lou, Eddie, Mickey, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto coming up to them. Curious, they go up to where the eight are standing)*

Kairi, Camille, Rinoa, and Morpheus: What’s going on?

Selma: You didn't miss much.

Patty: That's right.

Male civilian 1: They just announced that Excalibur is stolen last night.

Scrooge: And then disappeared in the Forbidden Forest.

Rinoa: (Surprised) What?

Kairi, Camille, and Morpheus: (In calm concern) How?

Stegmutt: Fourteen monsters, including Tempest Shadow, broke into Camelot and tried stealing it.

Fenton: Only for two young knights, along with a tiki mask, Dream Eater, and six bandicoots, to intervene.

Marge: Making the attempted thieves accidentally drop Excalibur in the Forbidden Forest.

Drake: Hence why it disappeared.

*(Then Wiggum's group spoke up an announcement)*

Newsboy: Attention, attention!

*(Everyone quieted down)*

Newsboy: By order of King Eraqus....

Wiggum: Whose arm was injured during the theft.

Newsboy: And Queen Erika, we are to have all warrior volunteers to partake in any competition.

Lou: To prove they are worthy of looking for Excalibur in our king’s place.

Eddie: And assist us in the search.

Goofy: While the other knights search for Tempest Shadow and the villains responsible for last night’s inficent.

Donald: (Correcting him) "Incident."

Goofy: (Realizing sheepishly) Oh, right! A-hyuk! I mean, incident.

Mickey: So, to recap; We need volunteers to help us in the search while the knights search for the criminals, and to prove themselves helpful, they need to pick a competition to prove that worthiness.

*(Pluto barks happily a bit in agreement. Interested, the civilians softly clamored again, trying to vote which competition they will take. Hearing Wiggum's group say that, Kairi secretly brightened up while the residents were just interested. Then Rinoa spoke up, much to their notice)*

Rinoa: My daughter, Kairi, and our friends will suggest a competition!

Wiggum's group and newsboy: (Relieved) Oh, good!

*(Taking the chance, Kairi's group made a suggestion)*

Kairi's group: Archery.

*(The civilians got interested and all clamored in agreement. Even Rinoa, despite being surprised by that suggestion, shrugged in agreement. Deep down, unaware of Rinoa, Kairi's group decided to have Kairi take this chance to partake in the tournament, hopefully to prove to Rinoa that she can be cut out to be a knight princess and a hero to her, all the while open her eyes to what Cid and Dreamy would've really wanted if they were still alive)*

Rinoa: Huh. Guess it’ll be worth watching.

Homer: Woo-hoo! Archery, it is!

*(Later at the archery field, everyone has gathered to watch while seven warrior volunteers got their bows and arrows ready. Among the crowd watching this is Impa, who is still wearing her main attire. Five of the seven warriors are a group of youths in knighthood. The first youth is an 18 year old boy with short dark brown hair, gray blue eyes, and wearing a light blue short-sleeved short kimono-like tunic, dark blue cloth-like arm gauntlets that cover his hands, arms, and shoulders and tied together underneath the tunic, a dark blue obi belt carrying on the right side a small red bag with an orange gem button tied to a small brown string that closes the bag tightly, and on the left side a flat brown and white yellow rectangular sheath carrying a flat rectangular-shaped katana with a round white yellow handle wrapped in red cloth, white pants, dark blue legwarmers tied around the lower part of his legs, and yellow cloth-like shoes with a white yellow strap tied around the ankles, and sometimes wields a white yellow clothed quiver full of stoneheaded arrows and a brown wooden bow. The second youth is an 18 year old girl with short messy blackish green hair, gray blue eyes, and three dark red upside-down triangle-shaped tattoos on her face, two on each of her cheeks and one on her forehead, and wearing a black thin band with a white clip-on stone on her head like a bandana, a pair of huge flat white oval-shaped stone dangly earrings, a necklace consisting of multiple white fake wolf fang stones and black stones tied together by a black string, a blue obsidian crystal dagger necklace tied on a red string, two black thin armbands on her shoulders, a white thin furred sleeveless tunic over a blackish purple sleeveless dress, both with tiny rip marks on their bottom rims, and white long cloth-like shoes with two white straps tied around the ankles, and sometimes wields a long brown wooden spear with a white blade made from a wolf’s tooth with red engravings on it, and a white wolf tooth dagger with red markings on it tied to a small brown wooden handle. The third youth is a 14 year old boy with short blonde hair, gray blue eyes, elf-like ears, and wearing a long green floppy elf-like hat, a light green long-sleeved shirt underneath a green sleeveless tunic, a grayish brown belt with a yellow buckle, white legging-like pants, and brown boots. The fourth youth is a 14 year old girl with long hip-length gold lemon yellow hair, gray blue eyes, elf-like ears, and wearing a gold tiara with a pink jewel on it, two white wing-like hairclips on each side of her tiara, aqua blue eyeshadow, a fuchsia beaded necklace, a pink neck ribbon with a big, gold necklace attached to it, a fuchsia sleeveless dress with a blue zigzag design on the bottom of her dress and a dark fuchsia bodice, a white camisole, white arm gloves, a big gold belt with a blue sash, decorated with red, white, and gold yellow tribal patterns, and pink sandals. And the last youth is a 13 year old girl with short neck-length blonde hair tied in pigtails, gray blue eyes, elf-like ears, and wearing a sleeveless blue dress with red flower patterns all over, two purple bracelets on each of her wrists, and red sandals. Anyway, after the first warrior volunteer failed to hit the center of his target with his arrow, hitting the edge of his target, the second warrior volunteer struck the first blue ring on his target. Being the last to take their turns, the five young knights aimed their own arrows and struck the center of their own targets. Then Wiggum's group, who is impressed, and the newsboy made an announcement)*

Newsboy: We have five volunteer winners!

Wiggum's group: Who will help us!

*(Then after everyone cheered a bit, they turned to the civilians)*

Newsboy: Anybody else want to volunteer?

Wiggum: Anyone?

*(Silence, then a black cloaked figure appeared, much to everyone’s confusion. Then the figure removed the black cloak, revealing to be, much to everyone's surprise and amazement and Rinoa's shock and surprise….)*

Rinoa: Kairi?!

*(Kairi, with her headpiece now off, then introduced herself in determination)*

Kairi: (To everyone) I am Kairi Heartilly-Leonhart! I will be volunteering for my group to go find Excalibur and become knights and a knight princess…. *(To Rinoa, giving a thumb's up)* And do what’s best!

Rinoa: (Shocked) What are you doing?

*(Then, while everyone, except the shocked Rinoa, watched in interest and hope, Kairi took her bow and quiver full of arrows out and prepared herself. Suddenly, the sleeves of her dress prevented her from preparing herself)*

Kairi: (Groans a bit) This dress!

*(She stretches her arms out, ripping her sleeves and even her sleeves' shoulder rims, much to the surprise, then turned impressed looks, of the crowd, all except Rinoa, who is shocked)*

Patty: (Impressed) Wow, she definitely has a lot of spirit!

Selma: (Impressed) Mm-hmm, she sure does!

*(Then Rinoa calmly got angry)*

Rinoa: Kairi!

Camille, Marge, and Morpheus: (Noticing her getting up) Rinoa, stop!

*(Rinoa then got up in anger, ignoring Camille, Marge, and Morpheus, and started marching to her daughter, despite the rest of the residents of the apartment, including Wiggum's group, trying to stop her. Kairi then fired her first two arrows at the first two volunteers’ targets’ centers, much to everyone’s amazement and then impressed looks, except an angry Rinoa)*

Rinoa: Kairi Heartilly-Leonhart, stop it!

*(But Kairi ignored her and fired four arrows at the next four targets’ centers, making everyone, except Rinoa, cheer a bit, while the five volunteers watched in amazement)*

Rinoa: Don’t you dare shoot another arrow!

*(Kairi prepares her seventh arrow towards the center of the seventh target)*

Rinoa: Kairi, I forbid it!

*(But too late for Rinoa, for in silent slow motion, Kairi fired her seventh arrow and it struck the center of the seventh target. After that’s done, everyone cheered a bit while the five volunteers and Wiggum's group applauded. Suddenly, that all stopped when Rinoa came up to Kairi finally, really angry, causing Kairi to change her proud happy satisfied look to a concerned, shocked look that reads "Oh, crap!" Then Rinoa grabbed Kairi by her left shoulder savagely and dragged her away, much to everyone’s confusion, although the apartment residents got concerned silently)*

Rinoa: Our families!

*(Knowing her tone that she wants them to be there, Squall, Scrooge, Drake, Homer, Marge, Patty, Selma, Abe, Grace, Volteer, Morpheus, Genius, and even Serena, Namine, Xion, Aqua, Olette, Camille, Bart, Lisa, Maggie, Lollie, Rainbow, Lobo, Confetti, Molly, and Lillipup then went after Rinoa and a dragged-along Kairi, as if going to be alone for a while)*

***Coming up: A heated argument between mother and daughter ends terribly when they wreck each other’s one treasure of their own, making Kairi run away with Lollie in tow only. Then once in the Forbidden Forest after running away, Kairi and Lollie follow the Kodama and Wisps to a cottage inhabited by a feisty, yet kind, woodcarving-talented Looney Tune witch and her assistants, making Kairi buy both a magic bow and its quiver of unlimited magic arrows and certain key-shaped sword in exchange for a spell for Rinoa.***
