Rescuing Yuki, Jiji, Mushu, Cri-Kee, and the Dream Eater Pets from Tamatoa/Shiny Part 2

*(After making it to the top of the clamshell, Kiki's group saw Tamatoa fast asleep and snoring loudly. Using some rope, they climbed down cautiously and once inside, they looked around for Yuki, Jiji, Mushu, Cri-Kee, and the Dream Eater pets when they noticed the concerned and frightened animals/creatures locked in a cage made from a literal rib cage next to a giant rib cage. They noticed and got happy and Yuki, Jiji, Mushu, Cri-Kee, and Chirithy turned happily to the rest of the Dream Eater pets)*

Yuki and Jiji: (Whispering) Told ya they’d come back for us!

Mushu and Chirithy: (Whispering while Cri-Kee quietly and happily chirps a bit in agreement) Never doubt them!

Dream Eater pets except Chirithy: (Whispering) Cool!

*(They run up to the rib cage and Kiki, Tombo, Satsuki, Mei, Kanta, Zelda, and Elise kneeled down to it)*

Kiki: (Whispering) So how do we open that cage?

Zelda: (Whispering) I’m sure there’s a mechanism somewhere.

Tombo: (Whispering) Let's look.

Satsuki, Mei, and Kanta: (Whispering) And hurry.

*(Elise noticed a bone latch and lifted it up, and opening the cage, ushered Yuki, Jiji, Mushu, Cri-Kee, and the Dream Eater pets out, much to their happiness of being freed. Just when they hurried out, a familiar crab leg blocked the way and closed it, shocking Kiki's group. They looked up and saw Tamatoa smirking evilly at them)*

Tamatoa: I knew you’d return. I pretended to be asleep.

Ray: (Calmly shocked) Clever giant crab, he is.

Mushu: (Flatly) How were Yuki, Jiji, Cri-Kee, the Dream Eater pets, and I supposed to know?

Jiji: (Flatly) That's what I'd also like to know.

*(Zelda and Elise went up to him in anger)*

Elise: Prepare to eat some blasts!

Zelda: And suffer the consequences!

Tamatoa: Hold up, you’re Zelda and Elise, aren’t you? Splatter Phoenix and the Sanderson Sisters’ fountain of youths?

*(Zelda and Elise got surprised)*

Zelda and Elise: You heard of us?

Tamatoa: I know the outside world from within my lair.

*(A short pause)*

Zelda and Elise: Enough talk!

*(Then Zelda and Elise fired blasts at his shell, but to their and Kiki's group’s shock and surprise, the blasts didn’t faze him. Tamatoa then began singing as he approached Kiki's group, who backed away up to the wall)*

Tamatoa: **Well, well, well**

**Little Zelda and Elise are having trouble with their magic**

**You little semi-little witchlings**

**Ouch, what a terrible performance**

**Get the brooms, get it?**

**You don’t sweep it like you used to, girls**

*(Before anyone reacted, Tamatoa snatched Zelda and Elise up with his claw and danced slowly)*

Tamatoa: **Yet, I have to give you credit**

**For my start**

**And your mediocre beauty on the outside**

**For just like you, I made myself a work of art**

**I’ll never hide, I can’t**

*(He then danced quickly again after throwing Zelda and Elise into the air and then catching them)*

Tamatoa: **I’m too shiny**

**Watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough**

**Strut my stuff**

**My stuff is so shiny**

*(He then kicked Kiki’s group inside the giant rib cage and locked them in with his foot, although Yuki, Jiji, Mushu, Cri-Kee, and the Dream Eater pets hid near it)*

Tamatoa: **Send your buddies, but they’ll never be enough**

*(He points at his shell)*

Tamatoa: **My shell’s too tough**

*(He then resumed his dancing)*

Tamatoa: **Zelda and Elise**

**You can try, try, try**

**But you can’t expect**

**Two little witchlings**

**To beat a decapod**

**Look it up**

**You should’ve listened, listened, listened**

**Now it’s time for me to take apart**

**Your confused hearts**

*(He then kicked the small clamshell again and this time, the top of the giant clamshell slowly closed, exposing in the darkness his blue and purple streaks and spots of bioluminescent lights all over his body as he continued his torturous singing and dancing towards Zelda and Elise as Kiki's group got concerned and began pulling at the rib cage to break it open)*

Tamatoa: **Far from the ones who really raised you**

**Chasing the heritage of your past**

**That made you feel confident**

**You try to be brave**

**But your courage is not strong enough**

**Zelda and Elise, now it’s time to pack your baggies**

**Ever seen someone so shiny?**

**Soak it in, because it’s the last you’ll ever see**

***C’est* *la* *vie*, *mon* *amis***

**I’m so shiny**

**Now I’ll send you home**

**So prepare your final pleas**

**Just for me**

*(Yuki, Jiji, Mushu, Cri-Kee, Ray, and the Dream Eater pets quickly then unlocked the rib cage and freed Kiki's group. Noticing glowing colorful bioluminescent algae, among them red, blue, orange, white, and purple, scattered on the ground, Pinocchio and the rest of Kiki's group got an idea. With Tamatoa, he prepares to put Zelda and Elise in a geyser chute as he flickered his lights on his body)*

Tamatoa: **You’ll never be quite as shiny**

**You’d wish you were nice and shiny**

*(Just when Zelda and Elise were stuffed in there as the song ended, Kiki, Tombo, Satsuki, Mei, and Kanta called out to him, getting his attention)*

Kiki, Tombo, Satsuki, Mei, and Kanta: Wait!

*(Noticing them, Tamatoa got confused)*

Tamatoa: How did you escape?

Satsuki: Does it matter?

Tombo and Kanta: We got something better and shiny!

Kiki and Mei: All for you!

*(He suddenly noticed them holding out the glowing Ruby Slippers, glowing Amethyst Gauntlets, glowing Diamond Necklace, glowing Topaz Bracelet, and glowing Sapphire Hat and went up to them)*

Tamatoa: Hand them over!

Kiki, Tombo, Satsuki, Mei, and Kanta: Okay!

Tombo: But we’ll trade them for Zelda and Elise!

Kiki: Please?

Ray: (Agreeing) They *did* say "Please," Cap.

Tamatoa: Done!

*(Kiki, Tombo, Satsuki, Mei, and Kanta handed the items to Tamatoa while Tamatoa puts Zelda and Elise down next to them. While Tamatoa looked at them with a crazed greedy look, Kiki's group ran out of the clamshell quickly after opening the door again)*

Tamatoa: Oh, look at you, you gorgeous…!

*(Suddenly he stopped and looked closely)*

Tamatoa: Hold up! These look like….

*(He realized)*

Tamatoa: Pieces of coral covered in bioluminescent algae.

*(He got angry)*

Tamatoa: I’ve been duped!

*(He charged ahead to the door. Outside as Kiki's group continued running, Zelda and Elise turned to Kiki, Tombo, Satsuki, Mei, and Kanta in confusion)*

Zelda: Why did you give the items to Tamatoa for me and my sister?

Elise: You could've fought h....

*(Kiki, Tombo, Satsuki, Mei, and Kanta made everyone stop running by stopping which then made Elise stop talking, and showed in their backpacks the real Ruby Slippers, real Amethyst Gauntlets, real Diamond Necklace, real Topaz Bracelet, and real Sapphire Hat)*

Zelda and Elise: Well, I’ll be!

Pinocchio: Yep! Tricked him!

*(Then they heard Tamatoa call out to them)*

Tamatoa: But not for long, you pests!

*(They see Tamatoa charging at them from behind in a fury. They nod and hurry ahead. As they ran, Popple tripped and cut his elbow. Quickly helping him up, Kiki's group resumed their run. Suddenly, Link's group noticed a sign next to a staircase up ahead)*

Link: Hey! It says “This way to Emerald City!”

*(They almost get to the staircase, only for Tamatoa to block the way)*

Tamatoa: Any last words?

*(Pinocchio secretly noticed a giant geyser chute and spoke up)*

Pinocchio: Yeah! Come and get me first!

*(He hurried over to the giant geyser chute and Tamatoa followed him and lunged at him right towards the geyser. Pinocchio jumped out of the way back to the others and Tamatoa got stuck in the geyser. Then the pressure built beneath Tamatoa and shot him out like a cannonball into the air and right onto his shell on the ground, trapping him in that position, and spilling some treasure beneath him. Noticing a blue, red, green, and yellow sword within a dark blue, dark red, dark green, and dark yellow scabbard and belt, a blue, red, green, and yellow metal bo stick, and a blue, red, green, and yellow bow and dark blue, dark red, dark green, and dark yellow quiver full of colorful arrows among the spilled treasure, Satsuki, Tombo, and Kiki ran up to them, grabbed them, and looked at them, for the sword, bo stick, and bow and arrows all looked like water, fire, earth, and wind combined. Then Kanta called out to them as the others ran up the stairs)*

Kanta: Tombo, girls, come on!

*(Satsuki, Tombo, and Kiki nodded and ran up the stairs with the others, carrying the sword, bo stick, and bow and arrows respectively. Upon reaching the outside of the trench, Kiki's group panted in exhaustion and then they looked down at the darkness of the trench and laughed a bit, all except Yuffie, Popple, Wes, Team Rocket, and the Fearsome Four, that is)*

Bushroot: What’s so funny?

Megavolt: Popple is hurt!

Yuffie, Wes, and Meowth: Look!

*(They stopped laughing a bit upon hearing them and noticed Popple clutching his injured elbow)*

Yuki: Are you okay?

Wes: Does it look like he’s okay, palsy?

Meowth: Look.

*(Popple removed his hand off his elbow to expose a cut on it with the part of his sleeve ripped from where he was cut and some blood on it and his hand as well)*

Kiki: (Gasps) He’s bleeding terribly!

Jiji: That looks bad!

Sora's group: I'll say!

*(They run into the forest to take shelter and recover since it’s now night. Up in the sky, Diablo saw this with a glare and flew away. Back at Maleficent’s castle, Diablo flew into her upper tower room and cawed at her. She calmly got shocked)*

Maleficent: What? They’re almost to Emerald City?! And Zelda and Elise are with them?!

*(She glared and used her magic on her wand to communicate with Splatter Phoenix and the Sanderson Sisters. Elsewhere, Splatter Phoenix and the Sanderson Sisters, who are still heading their way to get the color-making shells, sensed the magic from Maleficent. They then answered)*

Splatter Phoenix and Sanderson Sisters: What is it, Maleficent?

*(Silence, then….)*

Splatter Phoenix and Winifred: What?!

Winifred: Those brats and their friends are almost to Emerald City?!

Sarah and Mary: And who’s with them?

*(The four listened, then they got shocked)*

Splatter Phoenix: What?!

Winifred: Zelda and Elise are out of the tower?!

*(She and Splatter Phoenix got angry while Sarah and Mary got flabbergasted while Mary gave a brief savage bark)*

Mary: (Eyes Sarah) Zelda and Elise must've tricked us.

Sarah: About the new paint part.

Winifred: (Narrows a dagger glare at Sarah and Mary upon hearing them) You think?!

Splatter Phoenix: All right! We’ll meet up with you!

*(They snapped out of the magic, in a fury for Splatter Phoenix and Winifred's case, and they teleported back to the castle, by flight for the Sanderson Sisters' case. Upon their arrival, Maleficent then noticed them in calm anger and spoke up)*

Maleficent: Shocking, is it?

Splatter Phoenix: Indeed!

Winifred: I cannot believe Zelda and Elise would deceive us like that!

Maleficent: What do you mean, “Deceive you?”

Sarah: Well, we did deceive them into staying in the tower.

Mary: How could they lie to us?

Splatter Phoenix: They wanted to see those stupid lanterns in Emerald City!

Winifred: But now we are extremely livid and concerned that if they do, they might eventually find out the truth about themselves!

Maleficent: So the two girls tricked you into leaving the tower, right?

Winifred: Yes!

Splatter Phoenix: They claimed that they wanted more paint, but that, I now realize, was bogus!

Winifred: Bogus is right!

*(Mary then went up to Winifred and Sarah happily)*

Mary: Now, now, Winnie. Since this promises to be a most dire and stressful situation, I suggest we sisters form a calming circle.

Winifred: I AM CALM!!

Splatter Phoenix: Outdoor voice, I see.

Mary: Oh, Sister, you are not being honest with yourself, are we? Huh? Huh? Come on, come on, give me a smile.

*(Winifred, getting what Mary is trying to do for her, smiled a little, while Sarah smiled evilly and goofily. Then the three all jumped to form a circle to calm themselves down and they got moving in circles)*

Mary: Think soothing thoughts; Rabid bats, Black Death, Mummy's scorpion pie!

Winifred, Sarah, and Mary: (In a calm and sentimental tone) Mother.

*(Then once calmed, the Sanderson Sisters ended their circle)*

Maleficent: Now that you have patience, let us think up a plan. If Zelda and Elise refuse to return to the tower, then we’ll think of something to stop them and their new friends, and make them return, through a deceit of your own.

Splatter Phoenix: (Thinks it over) Deceit of mine and the Sanderson Sisters' own, huh?

*(She and Winifred smirked evilly)*

Splatter Phoenix: I like that idea.

Winifred: Not a bad idea, indeed.

*(Then they changed the subject)*

Splatter Phoenix: Anyway, where are they now?

Sarah and Mary: Any sign of them?

Maleficent: In the forest past the trench, according to Diablo. And to recap, if they refuse, then we’ll come up with something to make them return to you and take care of their friends.

Splatter Phoenix and Sanderson Sisters: (Nods with an evil smirk) Got it.

*(Then with that, they head out after Kiki's group)*

***Coming up: Kiki’s group rest for the night and learn more of Zelda and Elise’s healing powers, as well as Yuffie, Popple, Wes, Team Rocket, and the Fearsome Four's talents. Then later, Zelda, Elise, Splatter Phoenix, and the Sanderson Sisters reunite for a brief moment and when Splatter Phoenix and the Sanderson Sisters tried to persuade Zelda and Elise into returning to the tower, Zelda and Elise bravely stand their ground and make their mother and aunts leave them and their friends alone. Then afterwards when that worked, despite Splatter Phoenix and the Sanderson Sisters grudgingly agreeing with a hint of blackmail, Kiki's group is then introduced by Ray to Evangeline.***
