Fidget, Bartok, the Fearsome Four, and Team Rocket’s Redemption/Going to Stop Merlock's Group

*(The next morning at dawn in the dungeon, despite that it's still somewhat dark, Ash's group woke up upon hearing the dungeon door unlock and then saw Don Karnage as he opened the door)*

Don Karnage: (Sinisterly) Dawn.

*(Later at the stairs, Don Karnage marched up, followed by Ash's group, their wrists shackled together, followed by Mad Dog, Dumptruck, and Gibber. Back in the secret dungeon, Merlock and Vanitas transformed themselves and Negaduck into Serena's group in the same disguises they wore on the day Ash and Serena's groups first met)*

Merlock, Vanitas, and Negaduck: (In Serena's group's voices) Not to worry, Princesses.

Negaduck: (In Kiki's voice) We will let your boyfriends know you said goodbye.

Volteer: Merlock's group, when we get a hold of you...!

*(The others shouted in agreement. The villains, however, are not worried)*

Merlock's group: (Sarcastically, in their normal voices) I'm so scared.

Negaduck: Not!

*(The villains then leave the dungeon. Meowth's group noticed Serena's group looking down sadly)*

Serena: Ash....

Sora: Matt....

Kiki: Tombo....

*(Then seeing Stellaluna and Meowzie, and to their calm surprise, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Pikachu looking at him and his group in calm concern, Meowth calmly got guilty)*

James: How we wished to tel....

*(Suddenly, the confession-proof spell prevented him from saying it)*

Megavolt: Well, let find a key, free Meowzie and Stellaluna from their cage, and they can use their powers to free us.

Jessie: But like James said, we....

*(Suddenly, she, too, stopped from the confession-proof spell, much to Meowth's group's annoyance)*

Meowth: This is driving us crazy!

*(Pikachu then asked away in concern)*

Pikachu: (To Meowth in concern) Pika pika pika, pika chu?

*(Hearing Pikachu ask that, Meowth became unsure and then asked him back)*

Meowth: (Unsure) But did I, or any of my members of my group, ever ask you about *your* mother, Pikachu?

Megavolt: (To Pikachu, agreeing) It's not a trick question, you know.

*(Hearing him, Pikachu gave a look that reads "Good point")*

Pikachu: (Shook his head no) Pika.

Fidget: (Sadly) Oh, poor Ash's group. About to die along with you guys who'll eventually also die because of us.

*(Then he got angry)*

Fidget: What is this world coming to?!

*(On "Coming to," he then slammed his fist-clenched hand onto the table near Stellaluna and Meowzie's cage, accidentally hitting a nearby knife, sending it flying into the air and then landing bladepoint onto the table near the cage, much to everyone's, including Fidget, shock and surprise)*

Launchpad: (Surprised) Good miss.

Fidget: (Sheepishly) Oops. Sorry, girls.

*(No response, for Meowth's group, Stellaluna, and Meowzie stared at the knife still bladepoint on the table, much to Fidget and the captives' confusion)*

Fidget and captives: (Confused) What?

*(Then immediately, Meowth's group, especially when Fidget noticed the knife as well, realized and remembered what can break the deal and confession-proof spell)*

Meowth: (Whispering) If any of us gets hurt....

Jessie: (Whispering) That's right....

Fidget: (Whispering) How could we have forgotten...?

*(Then Meowth and Fidget, after Fidget grabbed a key nearby, as well as the knife, went over to Stellaluna and Meowzie's cage, unlocked it, and lets Stellaluna and Meowzie out, confusing the captive heroes)*

Tawna: (Confused) What are you doing now?

Serena: (Confused) What are you up to?

Kiki: (Confused and concerned) Are you seriously gonna stab yourselves?

Quackerjack: (Confused and concerned) Look, I know Ash's group, Gabumon, Megsy, and I said some mean things yesterday.

Megavolt: (Confused and concerned) But that doesn't mean....

Meowth: (Answering, cutting Megavolt off) We're tying loose ends.

Fidget: (Agreeing) Doing what's right.

*(Then Meowth and Fidget used his claws and the knife and slashed Meowzie and Stellaluna's own respective palms, cutting them both)*

Luz: Why did you cut them?!

Lisa: Why would...?!

*(Suddenly, Stellaluna and Meowzie’s bodies glowed a blue light)*

Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Gabumon: (Cutting Lisa off upon seeing this) Wait, look!

Bushroot, Liquidator, and Patamon: (Agreeing) Something's up.

Pikachu: (Agreeing) Pika!

*(Then the blue light died down as their cuts healed too, Meowzie and Stellaluna realized the confession-proof spell over them is broken. Immediately, they confessed on what’s going on finally)*

Meowzie: Merlock and Ruggedo's groups captured me and Stellaluna and held us hostage on Meowth's group here.

Stellaluna: Meowth's group were then forced into betraying us because of it and then made them made a deal with them so we don't tell you what's going on.

Meowzie and Stellaluna: And that is why this is happening right now.

*(Realization dawning upon them, the heroes turned to Meowth's group in surprise)*

Heroes: Is this true?

*(The blue glows surrounded Meowth's group and then died down. James then answered sadly as tears welled in Meowth's eyes)*

James: (Nods sadly) Yes.

Meowth: (Sadly) We’re so sorry for betraying you like that.

*(They see the heroes looking speechless and surprised at first)*

Meowth: (Shedding tears) I bet you still don’t believe us or trust us anymore, no longer wanting me as your surrogate brother anymore, and we understand that....

*(Feeling bad for Meowth's group, the heroes shook their shackles, interrupting Meowth)*

Sora: We take back every bad thing we said to you.

Megavolt: Yeah. If Pikachu, Quackerjack, and I'd had known back at the river....

Quackerjack: Then we and Ash's group wouldn't have said those mean things to you.

Gabumon, Aku-Aku, and Crunch: (Nods) That's right.

Volteer: Even my group and I had a feeling Merlock's group was using you in a blackmail way.

*(Meowth's group got surprised)*

Serena: In other words, we're sorry we almost doubted you.

*(Blinking their tears away, Meowth and his group nods in determination. Then noticing Crash, Sombra, and Gene in their glass orb prison, got determined even more)*

Jessie: Like DW said; Let's, get, dangerous!

Quackerjack: (Agreeing in determination, not happy) It's playtime!

*(Then Meowth's group, Stellaluna, and Meowzie go over to the table and picks up Crash, Sombra, and Gene's glass orb prison. They then proceeded to drop it, but it didn't shatter)*

Crash: Uh, Earth to Meowth's group; It can't shatter by a simple drop due to magic.

Meowth's group: (Realizing) D'oh! You're right.

*(In the execution area, one of the pirate guards sharpened a blade while Don Karnage puts an executioner's mask on. Taking the sword from the pirate guard, he grins evilly as he cuts a log in half. Ash's group yelped as this happens. Then Mad Dog, Dumptruck, and Gibber take the three to the balcony part of the palace where the execution will take place, followed by a smirking Don Karnage. Back in the dungeon, Meowzie and Stellaluna realized something)*

Meowzie and Stellaluna: Guys, wait!

Heroes: What?

Meowzie: Stellaluna and I just remembered!

Stellaluna: We have a powerful spell that can help us shatter the orb along with the Fearsome Four's powers.

Megavolt: (Realizing slowly with everyone else) Yes....

Bushroot: Now that the confession-proof spell Merlock's group put on you guys, Meowzie, and Stellaluna is broken along with the stupid deal they made you take....

Liquidator: Meowzie and Stellaluna have their magic and powers again!

Quackerjack: Yeah!

Meowth: Then do that.

Serena's group: We believe in you guys.

Megavolt and Quackerjack: And Pikachu and us!

Pikachu: (In happy determination in agreement) Pika!

Meowth's group, Stellaluna, and Meowzie: Got it!

*(Then Fidget unlocked the chains and/or shackles off of the Fearsome Four, freeing them. After rubbing their freed ankles and wrists, the Fearsome Four them joined Meowth's group, Meowzie, and Stellaluna)*

Fidget and Meowth: (Holding their respective hand and paw-like hand out to Stellaluna and Meowzie) Mind if we...?

*(Stellaluna and Meowzie nods and then they and the Fearsome Four began to power themselves and even Fidget and Team Rocket up, with Fidget and Stellaluna and Meowth and Meowzie and Team Rocket and the Fearsome Four holding hands in a linked way, as an energy ball appeared in their hands. Back in the execution area, Mad Dog, Dumptruck, and Gibber got Ash into execution position. Don Karnage raises his sword about to deliver the killing blow when....)*

Fake Serena's group: (Voice-over) Wait!

*(Ash's group looked and smiled as the fake Serena's group, in their disguises, approached)*

Ash's group: Serena! (Sora!) (Kiki!)

Matt: Aren't you a sight for sore eyes?!

Tombo: Thank goodness!

Ash: We knew you saw sense not to go through with this!

Fake Serena: (Smirking evilly) On the contrary, we have come to say goodbye....

Fake Sora and Fake Kiki: (Smirking evilly) Yes....

*(Suddenly the fake Serena's group's faces turned into Merlock, Vanitas, and Negaduck's, much to Ash's group's shock)*

Merlock, Vanitas, and Negaduck: Street rats!

*(Then the disguised villains got away)*

Ash's group: (Shocked) Merlock's group?!

Ash: It's Mer...!

*(Ash was cut off when Gibber covered his head with a brown bag. They get ready to kill him as the fake Serena's group make their escape. Back in the dungeon, Team Rocket, Fidget, Stellaluna, Meowzie, and the Fearsome Four, all charged up, blasted Crash, Sombra, and Gene's glass orb prison, shattering it and finally freeing Crash, Sombra, and Gene. The two bandicoots and boy duck wasted no time as they zipped out of the room and got Ash's group out of the way before Don Karnage can chop Ash's head off first. Crash, Sombra, and Gene, after magically blasting the shackles off Ash's group's wrists, flies off as Ash removes his bag, smiling along with his group as they see Crash, Sombra, and Gene)*

Ash: Crash, guys!

Matt: Thanks!

Tombo: You saved us!

Sombra: Well, we got to, Ash, guys.

Gene: You would look terrible with no head.

*(Then they see Don Karnage and his pirate guards chase after them on the ground, swords wielded)*

Crash: And as for the others....

*(In the dungeon, the former captives disappeared, freed from their shackles and/or chains)*

Crash's group: (Voice-over) Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!

*(Soon the freed heroes, including Meowth's group, the Fearsome Four, Stellaluna, and Meowzie, have appeared on the palace's top turret. Even Volteer's group's clothes are magically repaired and cleaned. Then Crash's group landed themselves and Ash's group nearby them)*

Crash's group: See?

Gene: Not a scratch on them all.

Serena's group: (Happily) Ash! (Matt!) (Tombo!)

*(The lovers ran to each other as they hugged. The other heroes followed soon after)*

TK: Ash, Tombo, and Matt!

Kaya: Glad to see you safe and sound!

Stegmutt: We missed you!

Ash: (Laughs a bit) Hey, we missed you too, pals!

Bushroot: And to think we were worried you were gonna die along with us dying later.

*(Ash's group then sees Stellaluna and Meowzie)*

Ash: Stellaluna and Meowzie!

Tombo: Where have you been?

Serena: Well Ash, guys....

Sora: We were saved because of them.

*(Serena's group looked and saw Meowth's group peeking around from behind Stellaluna and Meowzie, gulping)*

Ash's group: You troublemakers!

Ash: I bet you pretended to help us escape!

Serena: Ash, please!

Kaya and TK: Yeah, stop it!

Sora: You don't get it!

Kiki: Meowth's group saved us!

Ash's group: (Surprised) What?

Tombo: *They* rescued us?

Jessie: Didn't you hear them?

Sabrina: It's true.

Pikachu: (Agreeing) Pika, pika.

Liquidator: We got a lot of explaining to do right now.

*(Then Crash turned into Ricky Ricardo)*

Crash: (Imitating Ricky) We got some explainin' to do!

*(Suddenly, Don Karnage and the pirate guards arrived, cuing Crash to change back to normal)*

Don Karnage: (To Ash's group) There you are! *(To his crew)* Get them!

*(They charged, but then stopped upon seeing Volteer's group stand in front of Ash's group in defense, much to their surprise)*

Don Karnage: You're majesties?!

*(Later, all was explained, with Volteer's group's cuts already healed by Stellaluna and Meowzie's healing magic)*

Mad Dog: Wow, Merlock and Ruggedo's groups sure fooled us.

Don Karnage: You think?! Nobody, I mean nobody, deceives the Great and Feared Don Karnage!

Dumptruck: (Agreeing angrily with Gibber, who angrily grunts a bit in agreement) Yeah!

Grace: Well, now that we have this settled, Captain....

Toshiko: If any of us were you, I'd apologize to Ash's group.

Don Karnage: (Aghast) What?!

Mad Dog: (Whining) But, you're highnesses...!

Darkwing's group except Launchpad and Stegmutt: Just do it!

Launchpad, Stegmutt, Mimi, Palmon, Kari, and Gatomon: Please?

*(Don Karnage looked at Ash's group, and then gave in grudgingly)*

Don Karnage: Fine! I, the Great Don Karnage, am very sorry for not believing your honesty-to-goodness and trying to kill you.

Ash's group: (Nods) Apology accepted.

*(They changed the subject)*

Meowzie: Anyway, we need to stop those villains.

Kiki: But how?

Izzy: That's a good question.

Sora: They're so powerful.

Stellaluna: Not even my magic attacks besides yours, Meowzie, won't defeat them.

Mohawk: Isn't there a way to stop Merlock's group?

Sombra: There is. Merlock and Vanitas' black lamp.

Gene: Every genie has the same weakness.

Crash: If you destroy their lamp, Merlock and Vanitas will be no more.

*(Then Stellaluna and Meowzie realized something else)*

Stellaluna and Meowzie: And...!

*(They listened as Stellaluna and Meowzie showed their pendants)*

Meowzie: The both of us sensed that Myotismon, Demidevimon, Hunter J, and Splatter Phoenix have been connected to our pendants because of Myotismon and even Merlock's group's magic.

Stellaluna: And if these are destroyed as well, they'll die as well.

Ash's gang: Good.

Coco: That's a relief.

Launchpad: We got a chance now.

*(Squall's group turned to Don Karnage and the guards)*

Volteer: Don Karnage, guards!

*(They saluted)*

Volteer: Assist us.

Grace: Meet us secretly in the throne room.

Haruhiko: (While Toshiko nods in agreement) And we'll make certain we'll make you have a lighter punishment for trying to wrongfully kill Ash's group.

Don Karnage and guards: Understood.

Don Karnage: But I'm not gonna like it one bit, especially the lighter punishment that we will be consequently getting by then!

*(Don Karnage and his guards then left to meet up with the heroes in the throne room secretly. Meowth's group, seeing this, then turned away)*

Jessie: (Turning) Well, you can do it without us. We caused enough trouble.

James: You were right. We are nothing but troublemakers and traitors.

Fidget: So we're leaving you.

Jessie: And we’re never coming back to you.

*(Meowth looked on in sadness, shock, and disbelief on their decision. The heroes felt terrible for them)*

Matt: But you can’t!

Ash: We said we were sorry already.

Stellaluna: What about the time we spent together along with Meowth and Meowzie, Fidget? Please stay.

Fidget: (In sad anger) That was in the past!

*(He sheds a couple of tears)*

Fidget: (Sadly) I’m sorry, Stellaluna, but Meowth's group and I are not gonna cause trouble for you anymore. It’s over.

Meowth's group except Meowth: (Sadly) We're looking out for us.

*(Meowth's group walked away in sadness as the heroes watched in sadness. Meowth stopped and sadly looked back for a brief moment, and then without saying a word, sadly resumed his walk until he and his group were gone. Stellaluna then broke down crying softly as Serena's group, Biyomon, Jiji, the Fearsome Four, Pikachu, Meowzie, Sabrina, and Lisa comforted her)*

Sora: Poor Meowth's group….

Quackjerack: They must’ve felt terrible for this.

Gizmoduck: Yeah.

Launchpad: And all they wanted was to be accepted and have a good home.

Morgana: This is not good at all with them leaving us.

Megavolt, Bushroot, Liquidator, Biyomon, Jiji, and Darkwing's group: Yeah.... (Yes....)

Serena: And we started to like them.

Pikachu: (Agreeing solemnly) Pika....

Stellaluna: (Crying softly) And I never felt so heartbroken my whole life....

Kiki and Meowzie: There, there, Stellaluna.

Coco: Love can hurt at times.

Sabrina and Lisa: (Agreeing) Yeah....

Serena: Believe us, we somewhat felt hurt when Ash's group lied to us about being princes.

Sora: But we forgave them regardless because they believed on the inside, not the outside.

Kiki: So, if you go after Meowth's group, try to change their minds with this advice.

*(The heroes nod in agreement. After pondering a bit, Stellaluna and Meowzie gave in with calm soft smiles)*

Stellaluna: Well, if that's the case....

*(She and Meowzie got determined)*

Stellaluna: I'm going after Meowth's group.

Meowzie: I'm going with you.

Grace and Toshiko: And us.

Volteer and Haruhiko: Grace? (Toshiko?)

Toshiko: Don't say "No" to us.

Grace: Toshiko and I are going with them and that's that.

Toshiko: We'll try and meet up with you later as soon as we try and convince Meowth's group to return.

*(Understanding, Stellaluna, Meowzie, and the heroes gave in)*

Heroes: Okay.

Quackerjack: And Pikachu, Sparky, and I will accompany you.

Pikachu: (Nods) Pika.

Megavolt: (To the heroes, agreeing in determination) That's right. *(To Quackerjack, angrily)* And how many times must I tell you?! Don't call me "Sparky!"

*(Even the heroes agreed to that after shrugging at Megavolt's moment. Then Serena's group got determined)*

Serena: Well, my cousins and I are definitely ready to fight Merlock and Ruggedo's groups as well.

Sora: Yeah, their wicked actions are completely unforgiveable!

Kiki: No more running away from danger and being just simply princesses!

Serena's group: We can do this!

*(Suddenly, just like how Ash, Matt, and Tombo got their Keyblades before, Aku-Aku's body, again, glowed a powerful golden light, and realizing what that means along with everyone else, he then transferred that golden light into three separate balls of light, one of each into Serena, Sora, and Kiki's own hands, much to the palace residents' calm surprise and amazement. Then the three balls of light morphed into three new Keyblades, now each one held by Serena, Sora, and Kiki. Serena's Keyblade has a guard with a gold handle, a small silver chain with a red and white Pokeball with a pale pink flower on top of it keychain at the end, a ruby red shaft, and a bronze head at the end of the shaft that resembles the teeth of a skeleton key. Sora's Keyblade has a guard with a light red handle, a small silver chain with a red Crest of Love symbol keychain at the end, a yellow and blue shaft, and a gold head at the end of the shaft that resembles the teeth of a skeleton key. And Kiki's Keyblade has a guard with a purplish black handle, a small silver chain with a golden brown and butter yellow broomstick keychain at the end, a red shaft, and a copper head at the end of the shaft that resembles the teeth of a skeleton key. Amazement and surprise turning into happiness, the heroes, especially Serena's group, were speechless at first)*

Joe: Well, what do you know?

*(Even Eevee happily chirps a bit in agreement)*

Ash: (To Serena) And can you and your sister and cousin fight with a Keyblade?

Pikachu: (Hopefully and questioningly) Pika chu?

Serena: A little.

Kiki: But with your teachings when we defeat the enemy, we can as professionals.

Sora: Along with learning how to pickpocket from enemies when it comes to escapes.

Volteer and Toshiko: Hold it!

*(The heroes looked at Volteer's group, and they seem to give stern looks at first)*

Toshiko: No daughter and nieces of ours are gonna be doing any of that....

*(The heroes got disappointed at first, but then....)*

Toshiko: (Smiling with Volteer's group suddenly, showing a new set of female clothes and two red belts) Without Kiki and my daughter wearing a more necessary outfit and wielding spare weapons and artillery for adventures.

Volteer: A little joke on our sterness.

Grace: Exactly.

Volteer: And you have our blessing, as well as our wives, to teach Serena's group how to fight, use magic, and pickpocket from enemies after this.

Toshiko: A complete blessing from us.

Grace: That's right.

Haruhiko: Good luck.

*(The heroes got happy. A few moments later, the heroes, while Sora puts her new belt on, waited for a bit for Kiki to return, and then Kiki returned, wearing her new outfit that Toshiko just presented her. She is now wearing a long-sleeved purplish black dress, a red belt with a matching carrier containing a million of small magic balls (Similar to Honey Lemon's chemical balls from "Big Hero 6"), and a matching sheath carrying an iridescent emerald, ruby, and sapphire handled dagger, and orange shoes, and still wearing her big red hair ribbon. As for Sora's belt, it is a red belt with a matching carrier containing a bottle filled with fresh fire flower berry healing juice, and a matching sheath carrying a gold handled dagger, and it's connected to her pink fannypack. Then with that, the heroes, now all ready, climbed aboard Coco's Gummi Ship and they fly towards the throne room's direction while Megavolt, Quackerjack, Pikachu, Stellaluna, Meowzie, Grace, and Toshiko went the other way to where Meowth's group walked off with Crunch's Gummi Ship they borrowed)*

***Coming up: The final battle has come. Will Megavolt, Quackerjack, Pikachu, Stellaluna, Meowzie, Grace, and Toshiko find Meowth's group and, with Meowth's help, convince them to help? Will the heroes defeat the villains and destroy both the black lamp and Stellaluna and Meowzie's pendants? Only time will tell.***
