Meeting Kairi and Sora's Groups, the Dream Eater Pets, Mushu, and Cri-Kee/Meeting Yuffie Kisaragi, Wes Weasley, and the Fearsome Four

*(The source of the footsteps then revealed itself to be Kayley’s group, much to Kairi's group’s surprise and confusion. The two groups suddenly notice each other)*

Two groups: Huh? Who are you?

*(Patch and Renamon walked towards them cautiously, then after smelling Kairi's group while Renamon studied them by looking at them, Patch's tail wagged and smiled cheerfully while Renamon became interested and trusting to them)*

Patch and Renamon: Nice to meet you guys. (people and creatures.)

*(Patch then coddled up on Namine's leg, giggling happily a bit, much to Kairi's group’s, mostly Namine's, surprise, and then they hid behind Sora's group for defense as Patch finished his coddling in confusion while Mushu's group just watched in concern)*

Roxas: (Smiling reassuringly) Relax, girls, Namine! He's just a cute puppy.

Sora: (Smiling reassuringly) Nothing to be afraid of.

Riku: (Looking at Renamon in a reassuring smile in agreement) Heck, even this fox Digimon seems harmless to us.

Renamon: (Flattered) Well, thank you.

*(Kayley, Garrett, and Rika ran up to them so Kayley can get Patch)*

Kayley: (Giggling a bit) Patch, don’t scare them.

Patch: Renamon and I didn't mean to scare them.

*(Kayley picked Patch up and turned to Kairi's group apologetically)*

Kayley: Sorry if my puppy, Patch, scared you, he’s mostly a social lover.

Rika: For a Dalmatian puppy.

Garrett: That's right.

Patch: And I like to be rootin' tootin' yellow-bellied criminal fighter, like my hero and idol, Thunderbolt!

Renamon: We know, Patch.

*(Understanding with nods, Kairi's group slowly came out from behind Sora's group from their and Mushu's group's encouragement and spoke up)*

Namine: Thank you for telling us.

Rainbow: We just didn’t know up until now.

Mushu: And that may be a bad impression we made, I guess you guys are okay.

*(Cri-Kee happily chirps a bit in agreement. Kayley then puts Patch down in front of Mushu's group and after he smelled them, he got happy and licked them a bit, much to their surprise)*

Mushu's group except Mushu: Uh....

Mushu: (After Patch finished his bit of licking) Down, Yeller!

*(Patch, after a short pause giving a confused look along with the rest of Mushu's group, on what Mushu just said, got happy again and nuzzled Mushu's group this time, much to Mushu's discomfort as first while the rest of Mushu's group chuckled a bit and nuzzled and/or hugged back, but then Mushu immediately warmed up to Patch and nuzzled and hugged him back with a bit of a chuckle, much to the two groups’ surprise and happiness. The animals and creatures have become friends, despite Patch being a dog compared to Lollie being a cat-like Dream Eater)*

Patch: You're really cool.

Lobo: Indeed with you as well.

Lollie: We like you already.

Mushu: And on second thought, I like you, too, Patchy.

Patchy: (Giggles a bit) Patchy. But you can just call me "Patch" if you like.

Mushu: (Nods) Granted.

*(After the nuzzle and hugs ended, Mushu's group leapt onto each member of Kairi’s group's own shoulders and Patch lets Kayley pick him up again)*

Rika: So, what are you guys doing out here?

Aqua: And what are you doing out here?

*(Later, after introducing each other and explaining what they’re doing while seated and Kayley having put Patch down and Mushu's group climbing off of Kairi's group's own shoulders, both groups realized happily)*

Kayley: So, you’re going to Emerald City, too?

Garrett: And that’s Kairi's group’s backstory?

Kairi, Sora, and Mushu's groups: (Nods) That’s right.

Confetti: And you, ironically, are going to Emerald City too, right?

Molly: And you have dreams as well?

Kayley’s group: (Nods) Yep. (Yes.)

Sora: (To Kairi and Mushu's groups and his group) Wow, this is so cool!

*(Kairi and Mushu's groups and the rest of Sora's group nodded in agreement)*

Ventus: Is it okay if we go with you guys?

Terra: Since we *are*, after all, going to the same destination.

*(Surprised, Kayley’s group thought it over and nodded)*

Rika: We’ll let you tag along with us.

Garrett: We have the same goals.

Kayley, Patch, and Renamon: That's right.

Kairi, Sora, and Mushu's groups: Thanks!

*(They get up and Kairi's group got nervous at first. The others noticed)*

Rika: You okay?

Patch and Mane Eight's group: What's the matter?

*(Their attention caught, Kairi's group spoke up)*

Kairi's group: Sorry.

Xion: We're just nervous.

Kairi: I know Sora's group promised to protect us from the dangers.

Namine: And our mother told us about those dangers.

Aqua: But I can’t help having a terrible feeling something bad would happen.

Olette: That's right.

*(Feeling sorry, Kayley’s group went up to them)*

B.E.N.: Don’t worry.

Fievel: We’ll make sure you don’t get hurt or attacked.

Tiger: And we’ll show them!

Pinocchio: (To Kairi's group) You can count on all of us like you do with Sora's group! *(To Jiminy)* Right?

Jiminy: Exactly. Just let your conscience be your guide.

*(Smiling gently at their kind promise, Kairi's group nods)*

Kairi's group: Thank you.

Kayley: Just think happy thoughts such as finding your true past.

Garrett: That's what we do whenever we feel afraid.

Rika: Yeah.

Kairi's group: Okay.

*(They resume their walk as Kairi's group starts singing)*

Kairi: **Heart don’t fail us now**

Namine: **Courage don’t desert us**

Xion: **Don’t turn back**

**Now that we’re here**

Aqua: **People always say**

**Life is full of choices**

Olette: **No one ever**

**Mentions fear**

Kairi's group: **Or how the world**

**Can seem so vast**

**On a journey to the past**

*(Kairi picks an orange poppy and throws it into the air and Lollie and Patch slapped it away playfully with their paws upon its fall, and then Mushu, Cri-Kee, and the rest of the Dream Eater pets kicked it aside happily. Then they resumed their walk)*

Kairi: **Somewhere down this road**

**We know someone’s waiting**

Namine: **Years of dreams**

**Just can’t be wrong**

Xion: **Arms will open wide**

Aqua: **We’ll be safe and wanted**

Olette: **Finally home**

**Where we might belong**

Kairi's group: **Well, starting now**

**We're learning fast**

**On this journey to the past**

*(They see a family of wolves trying to free a pup from a hollow tree trunk when they came up and Kairi's group helped gently pull the pup free, much to the wolves’ amazement and then happiness. Later, Kayley and Kairi's groups waved goodbye to the wolves who happily howled a goodbye back)*

Kairi, Namine, and Xion: **Home, love, family**

Aqua and Olette: **Maybe once a time**

**We must’ve had it too**

*(Suddenly, they came across three squirrels trying to pull an acorn free, but Kairi and Kayley picked some for them and out of gratitude, the squirrels happily accepted the acorns and ran up a tree)*

Aqua and Olette: **Home, love, family**

Kairi, Namine, and Xion: **We will never be complete**

**Until we find you**

*(They resume their trek)*

Kairi: **One step at a time**

Namine: **One hope than another**

Xion: **Who knows where**

**This road may go?**

Aqua: **Back to who we maybe were**

**On to find our future**

Olette: **Things our hearts**

**Still need to know**

Kairi's group: **Yes, let this be a sign**

**Let this road be ours**

**Let it lead us to our past**

**And bring us home**

**At last**

*(After the song ended, Kayley went up to them proudly)*

Kayley: See? That wasn’t bad thinking happy thoughts like that.

Kayley's Kansas group except Kayley: Wasn't it?

Kairi's group: Yeah.

Aqua: It felt good.

Kayley's Kansas group: Well, to Oz?

Kayley’s Oz group: To Oz!

*(They then sang as they march along the Yellow Brick Road)*

Kayley’s group: **We’re off to see the Wizard**

**The Wonderful Wizard of Oz**

**We’ll find he is a whiz of a wiz**

**If ever a wiz there was**

**If ever, oh ever, a wiz there was**

**The Wizard of Oz is one**

**Because, because, because, because**

**Because, because**

**Because of the wonderful things**

**He does**

**We’re off to see the Wizard**

**The Wonderful Wizard of Oz**

*(Later, as they continued their trek laughing a bit, they stopped when Patch noticed a strange looking cookie and ran up to it happily)*

Patch: Yum! A cookie!

Kayley: Patch!

Renamon: We don’t need a cookie!

Rika: Renamon's right.

Garrett: Don't you have a feeling it might be a trap?

*(Spike stared at the cookie and got a hungry look)*

Spike: But how can I refuse such a delicious cookie?

*(He went up with Patch to grab the cookie. Kayley's group went up to get Patch and Spike when suddenly, they, except Fievel, Jiminy, Patch, and Mushu's group, flung up into the air, hanging upside-down with ropes tied around their feet and Garrett, Pinocchio, and Applejack’s hats fell off of Garrett, Pinocchio, and Applejack’s respective heads)*

Garrett: (Flatly) Yep, I knew it.

Renamon: (Flatly agreeing) It's a trap.

Spike: Food, how could you betray me like that?

Mane Eight's group except Spike: Spike, who cares about that?!

Aqua: What’s going on?!

Rika: Obviously, we got caught in a trap!

Terra: But who would do that to us?

*(Suddenly, six voices spoke up to them from within the bushes, getting their attention)*

Female voice: (Voice-over) A hunter, that’s what.

Male amateurish Phil Silvers-esque voice: (Voice-over) We saw the whole thing, palsies.

Female voice: (Voice-over) That's right.

Male monotone voice: (Voice-over) We *were* gonna come out and warn ya.

Normal male voice: (Voice-over) But we were too late.

Male nasal voice: (Voice-over) You're obviously caught in a pickle.

Male echoey voice: (Voice-over) And if you need help, turn to us pros.

Female voice and four other male voices: (Voice-over) That's right!

*(Kayley's group got confused and then the sources of the six voices came out, revealing themselves to be a female teenage human, a male anthro creature, and four male anthro animal mutants, much to Kayley's group’s confusion)*

***Coming up: Kayley’s group were robbed by the six con artist thieves and after discovering this, they soon discover while getting their stolen stuff back that Kayley, Garrett, Rika, and Kairi's group have special magical powers and as they contemplate on learning these things, they are soon picked on by the thieves, but will it be enough for Kayley and Rika, who snapped from the bullying, to make the bullying thieves see reason from their berating lecture?***
