Sora's Adventures in Atlantis

## Research on Atlantis

*(Episode begins at Radiant Garden High School, where Sora is in history class with Riku, Ven, Roxas, Shiki, Neku, Joshua and Beat. As the bell rings, their history teacher, Milo Thatch, enters the classroom.)*

**Milo:** Class, as promised, I will be selecting five students to come with me on a government-funded field trip to find the lost city of Atlantis. Now, we've discussed this world for the past couple weeks, and these students will experience it firsthand!

**Sora:** *(whispering)* Who do you think Mr. Thatch is gonna pick, guys?

**Neku:** Doesn't matter to me. But I do hope Joshua gets to go...

**Joshua:** That is an interesting theory, Phones. I happen to be knowledgeable as the former Composer of the Reaper's Game of many worlds...

**Sora:** Well you might get to go with us if any of us go.

**Riku:** Sora has a point.

**Milo:** And the students are... *(he pulls out his list)* Sora, Riku, Ventus, Roxas and Joshua!

**Shiki:** Knew it'd be Joshua!

**Sora:** WOOHOO! WE'RE ALL GOING!

*(He, Riku, Roxas and Ventus hold hands and jump.*)

**Milo:** *(chuckling)* Whoa, whoa...Settle down, boys. After the trip, you know you're gonna have to write a report, right?

**Boys:** Yes sir.

## Getting Ready for the Expeditional Field-Trip

*(After school, Sora starts packing a red bag full of the supplies he needs. Kairi comes into their room.)*

**Kairi:** You excited about the trip tomorrow, Sora?

**Sora:** I sure am! I've heard legends about Atlantis, and Mr. Thatch says it's not off the coast of this Ireland, but instead *Iceland.* Oh, and I invited him to come over for dinner tonight, and he says you and the others can come too, if you want.

**Kairi:** Sounds great! I'd be delighted to do that! By the way, Aqua says dinner tonight will be seafood delight with Chinese vegetables, sticky rice, fried dumplings and for dessert, raspberry sorbet.

**Sora:** Kinda fitting for a sea-based adventure...

*(That evening at dinner, everyone is washed up and sitting at the table as Aqua dishes out the food. Suddenly, the doorbell rings and Yuna answers it. Milo is standing outside.)*

**Yuna:** Why, hello! You must be...

**Milo:** Milo Thatch, milady. I'm Sora, Riku, Roxas and Ven's history teacher.

**Yuna:** Oh! Do come in; dinner is served. I'm gonna be eating with my guardians.

**Tidus:** Dining room is thataway.

*(Milo walks into the dining room and sits in the empty chair reserved for him. Aqua dishes his food and sets the rest in the center in case anyone wants more.)*

**Riku:** Mr. Thatch! So nice of you to join us!

**Milo:** Thanks, Riku. It's a pleasure to see all of you. *(He starts using his right hand to eat his seafood delight with chopsticks.)* So, tell me your names. I already know Kairi, Aqua and Terra because Kairi is in the Princess Academy wing and Aqua and Terra are Ven's legal guardians.

**Axel:** Me? My name is Lea, but you can call me Axel. Got it memorized?

**Milo:** Lea or Axel. Gotcha.

**Axel:** Great job, teach. You're a quick learner.

**Naminé:** Pleased to meet you, Mr. Thatch. My name is Naminé, Kairi's Nobody. You didn't see me because I'm homeschooled, and by Aqua here no less.

**Aqua:** I'm a good homeschool teacher, always making sure she doesn't screw with other people's memories.

**Milo:** That's good to know!

**Xion:** And my name's Xion, or No.i, for long. An imaginary number, and formerly Number XIV in Organization XIII.

**Milo:** Organization XIII? I do believe Commander Rourke has heard of those guys...

**Ventus:** Who is this Commander Rourke guy? See, I'm out of the loop for other worlds because I've been in a coma for ten years.

**Milo:** It's a long story...

## Milo Thatch’s Story how he joined the Government

**Milo:** Good afternoon, gentlemen. First off, I'd like to thank this board for taking the time to hear my proposal. Now, we've all heard of the legend of Atlantis a continent somewhere in the mid-Atlantic that was home to an advanced civilization possessing technology far beyond our own that, according to our friend Plato here was suddenly struck by some cataclysmic event that sank it beneath the sea. Now, some of you may ask, why Atlantis? It's just a myth, isn't it? Pure fantasy. Well, that is where you'd be wrong. before the Egyptians built the pyramids Atlantis had electricity, advanced medicine even the power of flight. Impossible, you say? Well, no. No, not for them. Numerous ancient cultures all over the globe agree that Atlantis possessed a power source of some kind more powerful than steam, than than coal. More powerful than our modern internal combustion engines. Gentlemen, I propose that we find Atlantis find that power source and bring it back to the surface. Now, this is a page from an illuminated text that describes a book called the Shepherd's Journal said to have been a first-hand account of Atlantis and its exact whereabouts. Now, based on a centuries-old translation of a Norsetext... historians have believed the Journal resides in Ireland. But after comparing the text to the runes on this Viking shield I found that one of the letters had been mistranslated. So, by changing this letter and inserting the correct one we find that the Shepherd's Journal the key to Atlantis lies not in Ireland, gentlemen but in Iceland.

## On Board the ULYSSES

*(Scene cuts to the crew boarding ship with Milo. They have all their supplies necessary.)*

**Milo:** Ohhh...carrots. Why is there always carrots???

**Naminé:** Because they're good for you, Mr. Thatch, and improve your eyesight.

**Axel:** And besides, it's better than the slop this fartknocker calls food. Jebidiah Farnsworth, his name is, but he also goes by Cookie.

**Sora:** Axel!

**Axel:** Sorry, Sora. Can't help myself all the time...

**Packard:** *(over intercom)* Attention: all hands to the launch bay. This includes the esteemed guests coming along. To whoever took the "L" from the Motor Pool sign...ha-ha, we are all very amused.

**Sora:** Here’s our cue.

**Roxas:** Yeah looks like it

## The Commander's Betrayal

*(As Sora, Ven, Riku, Roxas and Milo resurface, they discover the crew along with a smirking Commander Rourke. He is accompanied by two black a coated figures: one with a helmet I like mask covering his face and the other looking like an evil version of Riku.)*

**Rourke:** Have a nice swim, boys?

**Milo:** Hey guys! What's going on? Wh-what's with all the guns?

**Sora:** And what are THESE GUYS doing here?!?!?!?! *(He points immediately at Vanitas and Dark Riku.)*

**Vanitas:** Oh, nothing. Except Luxu sent us here to get our hands on the Princess's pure light and crystal!

**Dark Riku:** Most of the Atlanteans were such morons, so we decided to recruit Mr. Rourke.

**Sora:** Wait you guys are after the Princess of Heart are you?
