Clover, Rainbow, Lollie, and Ray Bring Help in the Form of Their Friends/Namine Discovers the Truth and Fat Tony's Gang Help Sofia's Group Escape

*(Back in the Haunted Forest, Clover, Rainbow, Lollie, and Ray ran, or flew in Ray's case, quickly in determination to find their friends. Elsewhere, Riku's group just finished fixing Fender and Rodney up and Rabbit already used the Elemental Sword's water side to clean the mud off of it)*

Goofy: Good as new!

Fender: Thank you! *(Imitates a tough guy)* I am now *muy* macho, guys.

Rodney: (Agreeing) Indeed.

Rabbit: And the Elemental Sword is clean at last!

Mei: That's wonderful!

Eeyore: But there's one problem.... If only we knew where the Winged Goblins and Toon Patrol took Namine and the kids.

*(Sofia's group realized what he’s talking about and agreed. Then they began singing while pondering and looking concerned)*

Piglet: **It’s all gone to rack and ruin**

Yuki: **‘Cause we don’t know what we’re doin’**

Itchy: **It’s all gone down the pan**

Fender: No!

Rodney: It has.

Pooh: **Things would be less distressful**

**And we might more successful**

Sofia’s group: **If we only had a plan**

Rabbit: **Bet the Sorceress would**

**Make Fender and Rodney beelines**

Pooh: **Along with Sly Fox**

Gabu: **And kill us all at once**

Riku: **My sentiments exactly**

Fender: (Confused) That’s all Rodney and I are?

Rodney: (Reassuring) No, we’re more than that.

Fender: (Gladly realizing) Oh.

Gabu: **But I feel such a coward**

Tigger: **I’d be easily overpowered**

Sofia’s group: **If we only had a plan**

Charlie: But we don’t. So….

*(They began to ponder when they heard Clover, Rainbow, Lollie, and Ray calling out to them)*

Clover, Rainbow, and Lollie: Hey, guys!

Ray: Caps, *Chere*!

*(They noticed them)*

Pooh: Look, there’s Clover, Rainbow, Lollie, and Ray!

Charlie: It is them!

Lollie: (Panting) Hey!

Sora: Guys!

*(Clover, Rainbow, Lollie, and Ray recovered from their panting and explained)*

Rainbow: Lollie, Clover, Ray, and I know where Namine and the kids are!

Ray: Come on!

Clover: Follow us!

Tigger: (Happily) You’ll take us to the others?

Clover: Yes!

Ray: Come on, y'all!

*(The group then got determined)*

Sofia’s group: Then let’s hurry!

*(They follow Clover, Rainbow, Lollie, and Ray through the Haunted Forest. Upon reaching the rocks, they climbed up with Clover, Rainbow, Lollie, and Ray leading the way)*

Lollie: We’re almost there!

Clover, Rainbow, and Ray: This way!

*(During the climb, Louis and Fender almost fell when Gabu let them grab his tail)*

Gabu: I-I-I hope my strength holds out.

Fender: (Imitating Bette Davis) I hope your tail holds out!

Donald: Just pipe down and keep climbing, ya big palookas!

Fender: (To his friends) Does anybody understand what this duck is saying at all?

Donald: (Offended) Hey!

Fender: Just a joke.

Rodney: (Changing the subject) Come on!

*(They reach the top finally and saw the Sorceress' castle with Sly Fox’s tower nearby)*

Jerry: So that must be the castle and the tower.

Tom: Yeah.

Naveen: Talk about creepy.

Pooh: (To Clover, Rainbow, Lollie, and Ray) Our friends are in that place?

Clover, Rainbow, and Lollie: Yes.

Ray: Actually, Namine’s in the tower next door to the castle.

Rainbow and Lollie: Obviously.

*(Fender started to get upset)*

Fender: (Sadly) I’m starting to worry about them! I hate to think how scared they are!

Rodney: Don’t cry or get upset!

Mei: Yeah!

Gabu: You might rust.

Sora: And besides, we don’t want you to rust solid, because Sofia has the oil can!

*(Suddenly, they see the rhynocs, heffalumps, woozles, and weasels marching and chanting below)*

Lumpy: I see the guards.

Rhynocs, heffalumps, woozles, and weasels: **Oh-wee-yo**

**Yee-oh-wah**

**Oh-wee-yo**

**Yee-oh-wah**

*(Sofia's group got confused and Swiper asked Rainbow and Lollie)*

Swiper: What are they chanting about?

*(A short pause)*

Rainbow: I have no idea what that song is about either.

Lollie: Ditto on that.

*(They shrug and then quietly climbed down the other side towards the drawbridge. On the ground of the castle wall, Sofia, Hugo, Amber, James, Isabel, and Desmond made it and jumped onto the ground now that it’s close)*

James: (Whispering) Made it!

*(Then they ran quietly inside the castle and noticed the guards’ shadows marching forward. They hid themselves until the guards passed by. Once all cleared, the six resumed their search for a way out. Back with Sofia's group, they hid themselves and began to think of a way to sneak past the guards)*

Rabbit: (Whispering) I got a plan to get us in there.

Fender: (Whispering in sarcasm) Great. He has a plan.

Yūki: (Whispering) Well, what's the plan?

Rabbit: (Whispering) We're gonna disguise ourselves as guards to sneak inside the castle, and Gabu's gonna lead us in!

Gabu: (Whispering) Yeah. I.... *(Whispering, surprised)* What? Me?

Tigger: (Whispering) Yes, you.

Gabu: (Whispering) I g-g-gotta get them out of there?

Rodney and Fender: (Whispering) That's right.

Mei: (Whispering) Yeah! This is your chance to prove your King of the Forest!

Pooh: (Whispering) We believe in you.

Gabu: (Whispering in determination) You know what? You're right! This is what I have to do! I'll break into the castle and rescue the kids and then get Namine out of the tower! Wicked Witches of no Wicked Witches, guards or no guards, I'll tear 'em all apart! I may not come out alive, but do or die, I'm going in there! There's only one thing I want you fellows to do.

Riku: (Whispering) Okay, what is it?

Ray: (Whispering) What's that, Cap?

Gabu: (Whispering meekly) Talk me out of it.

*(Sofia's group gave Gabu irritated expressions as the scaredy cat tried to turn back and run, but they grabbed him by his shoulders and pulled him back)*

Sora: (Whispering) Oh, no, you don't!

Kairi: (Whispering) Oh, no!

Yūki: (Whispering) Get back here, you big furry chicken!

Gabu: (Whispering) Now, wait a minute.

Pooh: (Whispering, urging Gabu) Come!

(Mei and even Tiana, Naveen, and Louis went up to Gabu in determination, making him ease down)

Mei: (Whispering) Listen to us, Gabu!

Tiana: (Whispering) Our friends need us.

Naveen: (Whispering) And you can't abandon them.

Louis: (Whispering) So either grow a backbone, or so help me, I'm-a gonna play my trumpet so loud, you ain't sleepin' all night!

*(Slowly realizing they're right, Gabu gave in and got determined again)*

Gabu: (Whispering) Okay. Let's do it.

*(Suddenly, they saw Wise Guy approach their hiding spot without thankfully seeing them and then shouted his command)*

Wise Guy: Ten-hut!

*(The guards stopped and stood in lines. Suddenly, the Sorcress came out in a fury)*

Sorceress: Those brats have escaped!

*(Then the guards got surprised calmly. In their hiding spot, Sofia's group silently got happily relieved, seeing how Sofia's Kansas group have managed to escape so far)*

Stupid: You want us to find them?

Sorceress: Yes! And take reinforcements with you!

*(The Winged Goblins came out with weapons and the guards grunted in agreement and they began their search. Suddenly, Stupid tripped on his shoelace and rolled right into Wheezy and two other weasels, stunning them. Seeing this, the weasels and even the Toon Patrol laughed at this, until the Sorceress, in annoyance and anger....)*

Sorceress: SILENCE!!

(They quiet down)

Sorceress: Now's not the time for jokes! Go find the brats!

*(Panicking, they did what she ordered. After that's done, the lead Winged Goblin, the Goblin General, turned to the Sorceress)*

Goblin General: And what about you and Sly Fox?

Sorceress: I already told Sly Fox about it and she is preparing herself to guard Namine. And as for me, I shall go rest for a while in my chambers. And if any of you find them, bring them to me.

Wise Guy: (Approaching upon hearing this) Are you sure you want to kill those children and their friends?

Sorceress: I’m sure. Now go. Find them.

*(She goes to her sleeping chambers via a portal)*

Wise Guy: (Shrugs to the Goblin General) Don't ask, don't tell.

*(Then the guards resumed their search in and around the castle. Near the hiding spots, a group of weasel guards and the lead rhynoc searched for Sofia's Kansas group cautiously, spears ready. Suddenly getting an idea seeing them approach, Pooh whispered to the group and getting the plan, they nod and prepare to attack when they come. Finally spotting the group suddenly, the weasel guards and lead rhynoc were about to scream out when the group grabbed them and knocked them out. After stripping the weasel guards’ and the lead rhynoc’s armor, Sofia's group disguised themselves, while Clover is hiding in Gabu’s chest-plate, Rainbow is hiding in another chest-plate worn by Riku, Lollie is hiding in the chest-plate worn by Kairi, and Tiana, Naveen, and Ray are hidden in another chest-plate worn by Louis)*

Itchy: (Whispering) Are you sure this will work?

Pooh: (Whispering) I’m sure.

Goofy: (Whispering) Hope this works.

*(They come out and marched to the guards. Thankfully, the guards noticed them and thought it was their own group)*

Greasy: Anything so far?

*(Charlie spoke in a gruff voice)*

Charlie: No, sir!

*(Looking at them narrowly at first, the guards, except a suspicious Wise Guy, fell for it and the Goblin General excused them)*

Goblin General: As you were.

*(A short pause while Sofia's group got confused)*

Goblin General: What are you doing? Go in the castle and search!

*(Realizing, they saluted)*

Sofia’s group: Yes, sir!

*(They go into the castle. After they left, Wise Guy speaks his suspicions)*

Wise Guy: Something's screwy about them....

Psycho: Aw, Boss. It's just our guards.

Wise Guys: But did youse notice that they's got confused after being told "As they were?"

Weasel guard 1: It's true!

*(They look and saw their weasel guards and lead rhynoc, all stripped of their armor. Realizing, they got angry)*

Wise Guy: I knew it!

*(They ran inside. Once inside, Sofia's group see more guards march by and hid themselves)*

Fender: (Whispering) It worked!

Rodney: (Whispering) So far.

Goofy: (Whispering) Um….

*(The group looked at him)*

Sofia’s group: (Whispering) What?

Goofy: (Whispering) Does this armor make me look fat?

*(Tiana smacks him)*

Tiana: (Whispering) Does that answer your question?

*(Suddenly, while Sofia's group snuck by another set of guards, they immediately see Sofia's Kansas group sneaking around the corner)*

Kairi: (Whispering) There they are!

*(However, Sofia's Kansas group were spotted by Stan and Heff and gasped)*

Stan: Gotcha!

Heff: Thought you could outsmart us, eh?

*(Sofia's group came out of hiding, pretending to be guards)*

Sora: Halt!

*(Sofia's Kansas group, Stan, and Heff noticed. Sofia's Kansas group secretly realized that their friends are in disguise and played along)*

Gabu: We order you to hand over the six people to us!

Rabbit: We’ll take them to the Sorceress!

*(The disguised Sofia's group nods in agreement, and Stan and Heff, at first, fell for it)*

Stan: Okay.

Heff: Make sure they....

*(Suddenly, the guards, including the Toon Patrol, arrived, armed, having been informed by the Toon Patrol about Sofia's group in disguise)*

Wise Guy: Stop right there!

*(Stan and Heff got confused while Sofia's group got concerned)*

Heff: What?

Stan: What's going on?

*(Then the two noticed some weasel guards and the lead rhynoc armorless)*

Heff: And why are they armorless?

Wise Guy: Figure it out!

*(Realizing, Stan and Heff even pointed their spears at Sofia's group with the other guards. Then the Goblin General ordered away to Sofia's group)*

Goblin General: Remove the armor! Now!

*(Doing what they're ordered, Sofia's group removed the armor, out of their exposed disguises, allowing the weasel guards and lead rhynoc to put them back on)*

Lead rhynoc: Now, march!

*(They then forced Sofia's group to walk with them towards the direction of the Sorceress' chambers tower when suddenly, the door in front of them slammed shut)*

Wise Guy: What the...?!

*(Then he storms up to the door and tried to open it, only to learn it's locked. Then he began banging on it angrily)*

Wise Guy: Open this door!

*(Then, a familiar drunk bar patron opened the door's window flap from the other side, much to Sofia's group's surprise)*

Bar patron: (Drunkenly) What's the password?

Wise Guy: (Aghast in anger) What?!

Bar patron: (Drunkenly) Nope.

Wise Guy: (Getting angry) Open this door!

Bar patron: (Drunkenly) Not even close.

Wise Guy: (Angrily) This isn't funny!

Bar patron: (Drunkenly) Wrong answer.

Wise Guy: (Angrily pulling his gun out) You got three seconds to open the door! One...! Two...!

*(During this, the hallways partially blacked out around them behind Wise Guy, and the guards were suddenly yanked back by something, or someone, into the shadows, having their mouths covered to quiet them, much to Sofia's group's surprised amazement. Then sure enough, a familiar gangster snuck out of the shadows behind Wise Guy with something in his hands, and only Sofia's group watched in amazement. It is Johnny Tightlips, who silently shushed Sofia's group! Then as Wise Guy said "Two....", Johnny whacked Wise Guy squarely in the back of his head with something)*

Wise Guy: (Dizzily) Three....

*(Then he lost consciousness. And sure enough, it's revealed that Johnny knocked Wise Guy out with a wooden mallet. Then sure enough, Fat Tony, Legs, and Louie emerged from the shadows, and lit the area again, revealing the guards all knocked out, but Stan and Heff are missing for some reason)*

Sora: Huh. Talk about luck.

Fat Tony: You could say that again.

*(Then they hurried out towards the exit when Stan and Heff appeared in front of them, spears readied)*

Stan: Not so fast!

Heff: Any last words?

*(A short pause, then immediately, Gabu snatched the spears away and with their handles, and Johnny's mallet's help, whacked Stan and Heff's heads, making them dizzy, surprising Sofia's group and impressing Fat Tony, Legs, and Louie)*

Stan: (Dizzily) Good whack!

Heff: (Dizzily) I'll say!

*(They then dizzily kissed Gabu and Goofy respectively on their lips, much to Gabu's disgust and Goofy's disgusted confusion, and then Stan and Heff lost consciousness. Sofia's group and Fat Tony's gang then went outside the castle grounds and back in the Haunted Forest. Afterwards, Johnny discarded the mallet)*

Kairi: That was close.

Mei: What you *and* Johnny did was so cool *and* brave, Gabu.

Sofia's group: (Agreeing) Yeah.

Gabu: (Flattered) Aw, thanks, guys.

Johnny: (Adjusting his necktie casually) Hmm. Kinda brave and cool. But you didn't see that from me.

Yuki: (Playfully) Whatever you say.

*(Then they changed the subject)*

Sofia: Anyway, what made you come and help us?

Fat Tony: Well, King Squall and Queen Rinoa told us you were here to kill the Sorceress and Sly Fox under the Wizard's orders, so we made a deal with them that if the four of us assisted youse, we'd be payed $300 for our bar to be fixed up from the fireworks incident.

Riku: (Shrugs) Well, that *is* your business.

Rabbit: And technically, the fireworks part was an accident yesterday.

Fat Tony: As we're aware.

Legs: So, where's the long hair?

*(Remembering Namine, Sofia's group got determined)*

Tiana: Oh, right!

Riku: Namine!

Louie: Where is she?

*(They explained silently from a distance from what we see. Then....)*

Fat Tony's gang: WHAT?!

*(Then Sofia's group and Fat Tony's gang ran to the direction of Sly Fox's tower. Back in the tower, Namine was glumly reading a book. Then after letting out a silent sad sigh, she closed the book up, puts it back on the bookshelf, went to the window, and looked out. Suddenly, she noticed Sofia’s group and Fat Tony's gang from the distance heading her way through another part of the Haunted Forest. She snapped out of her depression and got confused)*

Namine: (Thinking) My friends are alive? And Fat Tony's gang are with them?

*(She got relieved)*

Namine: (Thinking) Thank goodness.

*(She looked at the curtained doorway and got determined)*

Namine: (Whispering) Now to confront her.

*(She was about to take a step when she remembered her broomstick. She goes over and picks it up. She stopped suddenly and noticed a sun-like flower symbol in her painting on the canvas wall the broomstick laid on)*

Namine: (Whispering) That symbol….

*(She pulls the green cloth with the gold sun-like flower out of her dress pocket and got surprised calmly. She held it up to the painting and inspected it carefully. Then she gasped quietly and thought over something)*

Namine: (Thinking) Could it be that…?

*(She thought some more, and then suddenly she calmly and quietly gasped again and remembered a blurry vision of two familiar kind-hearted faces looking down at her in a bright room. Then she remembered the baby princess in the picture looking like her. Then she remembered wearing the tiara Riku's group showed her before in front of the mirror on the day she left the tower. And then she remembered her meeting with Squall and Rinoa in Emerald City, looking at each other in curiosity. Snapping back in reality, Namine backed away a bit in shock, accidentally knocking over a perfume bottle. Downstairs, Sly Fox heard the crash and got concerned and confused)*

Sly Fox: Namine? Are you alright?

*(Upstairs, Namine panted calmly, for she realized the truth; She’s the lost Princess of Oz all along, and Rinoa and Squall are her real parents! She calmed down and after putting her cloth back inside her pocket, she went over the curtain with her broomstick, starting to slowly get angry. Seeing Namine come out, holding the curtains apart, Sly Fox sighed in relief, unaware of Namine’s realization)*

Sly Fox: Oh, thank goodness. I thought you got hurt.

Namine: (Softly) I’m the lost Princess of Oz.

*(Sly Fox didn’t hear her and got annoyed as she slowly walked up to her)*

Sly Fox: Namine, I told you not to mumble! I hate that!

*(Namine then got angry and spoke up loudly)*

Namine: I’m the lost Princess of Oz!

*(Sly Fox got surprised and shocked slowly, making her stop a few inches from Namine. Namine then saw that reaction and took a step)*

Namine: Did I mumble, Mother? Or should I say, Sly Fox?

*(Sly Fox snapped out of it and tried to calmly make an excuse)*

Sly Fox: I think you’re overreacting a little.

*(She went up to her to calm her when Namine pushed her against the wall)*

Namine: It was all your doing fourteen years ago!

*(She started walking down the stairs with Sly Fox following her slowly after recovering)*

Namine: All my life, I was hiding from the dangers, when in reality, I should’ve been hiding from you!

*(On “You,” Namine turned in anger to Sly Fox, who stopped in calm anger)*

Sly Fox: Everything I did was to protect you.

Namine: Liar!

*(Sly Fox reacted calmly)*

Namine: And I realize now my friends are alive and coming for me.

*(Calmly shocked, Sly Fox got angry calmly, and then in calm happiness, went up to her slowly)*

Sly Fox: Heh. So what if they’re alive. Where will you go to live then?

Namine: Emerald City, that’s what.

Sly Fox: Oh, please. Will they believe a little long-haired witchling like you is acting crazy, thinking *you’re* the lost Princess of Oz? Don’t be absurd.

*(She reaches her hand out to take Namine’s hand, when Namine savagely grabbed her and struggled to push it away)*

Namine: No! You’re wrong about the outside world! You’re wrong about my friends! You’re wrong about me! And I will never let you use my hair to stay young and beautiful again!

*(She finally shoved Sly Fox down onto the ground, knocking over a nearby mirror and shattering the glass into pieces. As Sly Fox recovered and watched her, Namine glared at her, holding her broomstick and went to the window, still looking at her in anger. Then she perched her broom, concentrated with new courage, and, with her hair's help, flew down outside the tower. Back inside, Sly Fox glared darkly as she got up)*

Sly Fox: You want me to be the bad guy? Fine. Now I’m the bad guy.

*(She walks to the window. Outside, Sofia’s group and Fat Tony's gang make it to the tower and suddenly saw Namine landing on the ground and then running towards them in happiness)*

Namine: Hey!

*(Reunited at last, Sofia's group, along with Fat Tony's gang, noticed Sly Fox flying at them with her broomstick when Namine, in determination, fired her magic blast at her, knocking her back and unconscious)*

Isabel: Whoa, that was cool!

Itchy: The way you knocked her down!

Louie: Okay, even I'm impressed.

*(They run back into the Haunted Forest as Sly Fox recovered and then, in anger, retreated to the Sorceress' castle. Later, Sofia's group and Fat Tony's gang learned from Sofia's Kansas group and Namine’s discoveries)*

Riku: Namine’s the lost Princess of Oz?!

Johnny: And Sofia’s mother was actually okay and looking for her and her Kansas friends?!

Sofia's Kansas group and Namine: Yes!

Hugo: Clear as crystal.

James: Right in front of a crystal ball even.

Amber: Exactly.

*(Sofia's group and Fat Tony's gang nods in an understanding way)*

Naveen: (Amazed) *Achidanza*! That is the most interesting good news we've ever heard.

*(The others agreed. Naveen then gave Hugo the Elemental Sword back)*

Naveen: You need this, by the way.

*(Hugo accepted it and tied the belt around his waist)*

Hugo: Thanks.

Sofia: But we still need to defeat the Sorceress and Sly Fox, find the DNA matcher, and get the Sorceress’ wand!

Rodney: My sentiments exactly!

Charlie: Way ahead of you.

*(Looking at the Sorceress’ castle, Sofia's group and Fat Tony's gang got determined)*

Isabel: We’ll have to go back there.

Hugo: Besides, we’ll finish the Sorceress with the Elemental Sword’s water side.

Namine: And then we’ll handle Sly Fox. Possibly, by cutting my hair.

*(She gently stroked her hair. Sofia's group got surprised at Namine’s suggestion while Fat Tony's gang and Ray contemplated as if remembering something)*

Sofia: But you won’t have magic anymore if you cut it.

Clover: What if you lose those powers?

Amber: For, like, forever?

Namine: But I figured out that there might be a possibility that I have magic in me without long hair since I was born with the golden flower’s magic.

Tiana: But still....

*(Then Fat Tony's gang and Ray spoke up in agreement with Namine)*

Ray: Actually, she's right. Even if her hair get cut off, she still has powers within.

Fat Tony: Those who are born with the golden flower's magic consumed by their pregnant mothers retains those powers within their own bodies permanently, even if the magic in *their* hair is cut off.

Legs: I had an aunt who had those powers once.

Louie: And when she cut her hair, the power remained in her body, except her hair.

*(They looked at Johnny for him to answer)*

Donald: Johnny?

Johnny: (Answering with a nod) We made a good point here.

*(Understanding finally, Sofia's group nods in agreement)*

Roo: Alright.

Gabu: If you’re going for it, know that we’ll be by your side.

Riku's group: All for one…!

Charlie's group: And one for all!

*(They look at the Sorceress' castle in determination and then ran to it)*

***Coming up: The final battle at last. Will Sofia’s group come out victorious with assistance from Fat Tony's gang, return Namine to her true home in Emerald City, and get their dreams, or will they perish? Only fate will tell.***
