Cave Trek/Escape (Bartladdin Version)

*(Later in the desert, the hunchbacked boy (Vanitas) lead Bart's gang while the wind is picking up wind like mad on a bunch of horses. Later, the disguised villain calls forth the Cave of Wonders once more. Bart and his gang looked at it in amazement)*

Tiger head: Who disturbs my slumber?

Bart: (Nervously) Uh, it is I, Bart Simpson.

Ash: (Nervously) Ash Ketchum.

Sora: (Nervously) Sora.

Riku: (Nervously) Riku.

Roxas: (Nervously) Roxas.

Terra: (Nervously) Terra.

Ventus: (Nervously) And I'm Ventus, but call me Ven.

*(The tiger head nods after observing them)*

Tiger head: Proceed, along with your comrades. Touch nothing but the lamp!

*(The tiger head opened up with a roar. Bart's gang sees the stairs from where they are at)*

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): Remember, boys. First, fetch me the lamp. And then you shall have your reward.

Riku: (Curiously) What is it about a lamp that is so important to him?

Bart: Who knows?

Ash: (Whispering to a nervous Bart's gang) Come on, guys. Let's get going now.

Mushu: (Nervously nodding) S-S-Sure.

*(Bart's gang entered the entrance and goes down the stairs. The stairs leading down ended at the bottom where Bart’s gang entered a room. They looked astounded. The room was filled with treasure as far as the eye can see)*

Bart: Would you look at that!

Ash and Sora: Cool!

Roxas: This whole horde of treasure could make us even richer than the sultan and sultaness' group.

Riku, Terra, Ventus, and Bart's gang: I'll say.

Mushu: Let's go for it!

*(Mushu ran for a nearby jewel but Bart and his gang yelled, stopping him)*

Bart's group: Mushu!

Mushu: (Turning) What?!

Bart: (Enunciating) Don't, touch, anything.

Martin: The tiger head *did* say not to take any treasure here.

Lisa: For there might be a consequence to it.

Terra: Remember?

Ash: We got to find this lamp.

Mushu: Fine.

*(Bart's gang walked on. Unknown to them, a figure is spying on them. It is a giant female golden eagle with gold feathers, brown talons, a dark orange beak, brown eyes, and a white feathered head. She quietly screeched and began to follow them quietly. Mushu and Pikachu sensed something)*

Mushu: Wait a minute....

Pikachu: (Suspiciously) Pika...?

*(Mushu and Pikachu turned, but the golden eagle hid in time. Pikachu looked puzzled then moved on along with a suspicious Mushu. The golden eagle followed again. Mushu and Pikachu sensed her again and turned quickly. The golden eagle hid in the treasure. Mushu and Pikachu saw a gold coin roll down upon that movement and ran to Bart and his gang)*

Mushu: Guys, you may want to take a look at this!

Pikachu: (Calmly concerned) Pikachu!

Milhouse: Mushu, we have no time for treasure finding with you.

Ash: And don't freak out, Pikachu.

Bart: So, don't have a cow, man.

*(Mushu groaned a bit)*

Mushu: (Mumbling) I know Pikachu and I saw something....

Pikachu: (Mumbling in exasperation) Pika....

*(But regardless, they continued walking. The golden eagle came out of hiding and resumed following. Mushu and Pikachu turned around, but the golden eagle flew behind Mushu and Pikachu very fast. The golden eagle then playfully pulled Pikachu's tail, making the Kanto electric mouse-like Pokemon jump in terror, startling Mushu)*

Pikachu: (Jumping in terror) Pi!

*(Mushu and Pikachu got into a fighting position, with Pikachu preparing his electric shock in determination, but the golden eagle hid behind the two of them just in time as Mushu and Pikachu got suspicious)*

Mushu: (Stancing himself nervously) I know some kung fu, and I'm not afraid to use them!

*(The golden eagle quietly takes Mushu's charm and plays around with it. Mushu and Pikachu noticed, turned, and upon noticing, jumped in alarm)*

Pikachu: (Terrified and surprised) Pika!

Mushu: (Screams and at the same time as Pikachu) Monster!

*(The golden eagle yelped in alarm and while she zipped away and hid, Mushu and Pikachu ran to Bart's gang and knocks them down)*

Ash: Mushu, Pikachu!

Bart: What the heck's the matter with you?!

Ventus: Are you crazy?!

Mushu: See for yourselves, wise guys!

Pikachu: (Worriedly) Pikachu!

*(Bart's gang looked and saw the golden eagle peeking from a pile of treasure)*

Bart: Whoa, an actual golden eagle.

Ash: The rarest giant bird species of all time.

Lisa: And from the looks of it, a female one.

Sora: Hey, come out, girl.

Riku, Roxas, Terra, and Ventus: We won't hurt you.

*(The golden eagle comes out. Upon her approaching, Pikachu got concerned)*

Pikachu: (Looking at the golden eagle in concern) Pika....

Ash: (Reassuringly, to Pikachu) It's okay, Pikachu. I'm sure she means no harm. *(To the golden eagle)* Right?

*(The golden eagle nods in agreement reassuringly and then lets out a soft reassuring chirp to Pikachu. Sensing the sincerity in the golden eagle's gentle chirp, Pikachu eased down and approached her)*

Pikachu: (Curiously and hopefully) Pika?

*(The golden eagle nods and then gently nuzzled her head next to Pikachu's. Calmly surprised at first, Pikachu's surprised reaction then slowly turned to relief and happiness, much to Bart's gang's, except Mushu, amazement. After their gentle nuzzles ended with their soft smiles, Pikachu smiled happily, deciding to trust her)*

Pikachu: (Happily) Pikachu!

Nelson: Looks like Pikachu made a new friend along with us.

Bart's gang except Mushu: (Nods) Yeah.

Ralph: (Nods) Glad we cleared-ed this disunderstanding between us.

Mushu: (Impatiently) And my charm?

*(Realizing, the golden eagle then dusts off Mushu's charm and gives it back to Mushu. Mushu takes it and, while putting it away, scolded her in a snobbish tone)*

Mushu: (Scoldingly in snobbish anger) And never touch my charm again, Lady Big Bird!

Bart's gang: (Scoldingly through gritted teeth) Mushu!

*(Mushu looked at the golden eagle, who just stared back in a calm apologetic way. Seeing this, Mushu's snobbish anger melted away and decided to forgive her)*

Mushu: Oh, alright. Apology accepted.

*(He and the golden eagle shook hands, or a wing in the golden eagle's case. With that done, they changed the subject)*

Flippy: And our guess; You wish to know why we're here in the Cave of Wonders, right?

*(The golden eagle nods. Then Bart spoke up)*

Bart: Well, seeing that you're curious, we sorta need your help.

*(The golden eagle perked up in curiosity with a soft questionable chirp)*

Bart: Sure.

Ash: You know your way around here?

*(The golden eagle nods. Then she gestured to Bart's gang on what their names are. Maggie sucks on her pacifier)*

Leo: So, looks like she wants to know our names.

*(After introductions, the golden eagle understood)*

Lisa: Yep, that's our names.

Martin: Do you, per chance, have a name?

*(The golden eagle then took a feather off herself with her beak and wrote her name on the ground with the quill part, also including how to pronounce her name. After she finished, Bart's gang took a look at the writing)*

Bart's gang: (Reading via its pronunciation message) Marahute?

*(The golden eagle, now revealed to be Marahute, nods after she gently discards her feather)*

Ventus: (Chuckles a bit) Cool name.

Lisa: And a very beautiful name to be exact.

*(Then they changed the subject again)*

Lisa: Anyway, there is a reason why we're here.

Bart: We're here looking for a lamp.

Riku: Do you know where it is?

*(Realizing what they're talking about, Marahute nodded)*

Bart's gang: Great!

Bart: Lead the way!

*(Bart's gang then followed Marahute, who leads the way. The group continued through a bunch of long caves until they reached a giant underground cavern. Once they stopped, Marahute pointed her head to a big pillar with stairs going to the top of it, with the stairs and pillar being surrounded by water with stones used as steps, and a beam of light is shining on top of the pillar. Bart turned to his gang)*

Bart: Wait here.

*(Bart's gang nods. Bart began to step on the stones and make his way towards the stairs. As he does, Mushu turned away for a second and then sees a statue holding the biggest red jewel he has ever seen)*

Mushu: Whoa, mama....

*(Mushu begins to go to it. Unaware of this, Bart has reached the stairs and begin to climb them quickly. Bart's gang and Marahute turned and gasped as they see Mushu heading to the jewel)*

Dream Eater pets: Mushu, don't!

Pence: Hands off it!

Hayner: The tiger head said don't touch!

*(They tackled Mushu, resulting the group to get into a fist fight. Unaware of what's happening below, Bart finally got to the top and saw what is on the top of the pillar; A golden lamp. Bart picks it up and looks at it in wonder)*

Bart: This is it? This is what we came all the way down here to...?

Ash and Lisa: Bart!

Bart's gang: We got a problem!

*(Bart looked and gasped as he saw Mushu get out of his fist fight with the group and is about to grab the jewel)*

Bart: MUSHU, NO!!

Bart's gang: STOP!!

*(But too late, for Mushu grabbed the jewel. But then the room begins to shake, much to the group's concern)*

Tiger head: (Voice-over) INFIDELS!!

Mushu: Uh-oh!

Tiger head: (Voice-over) You have touched the forbidden treasure!

Nelson: (Sarcastically) Nice going, Mushu!

*(Mushu puts the jewel back sheepishly, but both the jewel and statue began to melt)*

Tiger head: (Voice-over) Now you will never again see the light of day!

*(Bart moves quickly with the lamp as flames roared to where the lamp used to be. Bart ran down the stairs, but they turned into a ramp, making him slide down it. Bart then finds himself flying into the air. The water itself turned into lava and Bart is about to fall into it. Luckily, Marahute, with Bart's gang on her back in the air, catches Bart. Pikachu, with Cri-Kee riding on his head, ran across the stone steps, but stopped when they see that they are exploding into the lava. Pikachu and Cri-Kee panicked as the rock they're on is about to explode. But the group flew by and Ash and Mushu grabbed them both just in time)*

Mushu: You are one lucky bug and electric mouse Pokemon.

Ash: Let's get outta here!

*(The group began to fly back through the caves, dodging walls and debris doing so. Mushu panicked and grabbed Bart by his head, covering his eyes)*

Mushu: We're gonna die!

Sora: Mushu, cut it out!

Bart: This is no time to panic!

*(He yanked Mushu off of his head, and Bart's gang sees that they are about to collide into a wall, getting their attention)*

Milhouse: Uh, Bart....

Bart: Start panicking now.

*(Marahute then flew the entire group down, avoiding the wall, and the non-serious members of Bart's gang even screaming like Goofy. Then the group returned to the treasure cave as the lava poured out after them, melting all the treasure in the room. The group then got out of the room back towards the entrance. At the cave entrance, the tiger head itself roared furiously and is about to close. The group was almost to the top when a boulder crashed into Marahute, sending her to the ground, with Bart's gang flying right onto the steps near the entrance. Bart's gang landed on the broken steps near the entrance. As Bart's gang grabbed onto the ledge, Bart holds on for his life as the others climbed out. He looked up and sees the disguised Vanitas at the top, within reach)*

Bart: (Holding out his hand) Help me up!

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): Throw me the lamp!

Ash: Can't you see he can't hold on?!

Bart's gang: Help him!

Bart: (Almost slipping) Give me your hand!

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): First give me the lamp!

*(Not wanting to argue for his life is at stake, Bart takes the lamp out and hands it up. Vanitas grabbed it and holds the lamp over his head laughing sinisterly a bit)*

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): (Laughing evilly a bit) Yes! At last!

*(Vanitas puts the lamp into his cloak pocket. He turned and saw Bart's gang helping Bart out. The villain kicked them aside and grabbed Bart by his right wrist)*

Bart: (Shocked) What the heck are you doing, stranger?!

Hunchbacked boy (Vanitas): Giving you your reward. *(Darkly)* Your eternal reward.

*(Vanitas pulled his Keyblade out and is about to stab Bart with it. But Santa's Little Helper, Milhouse, Lisa, and Maggie appeared out of nowhere and Santa's Little Helper bites the disguised dark boy's left forearm, making the villain yell in pain and let Bart go, making Bart fall back into the cave. Then Mushu and Cri-Kee joined Lisa, Maggie, Milhouse, and Santa's Little Helper in fighting Vanitas, but Vanitas angrily grabbed the four of them and throws them in and then shoved the rest of Bart's gang in the cave as well. Marahute saw Bart's gang falling and managed to get the boulder off herself. She got up and flew up and caught Bart's gang in time. Bart hits the wall too many times on his way down and fell unconscious. The tiger head up above roared one last time before sinking back into the sand from where it came from. Vanitas looked astounded as he sits in the sand. Vanitas then laughs evilly a bit and threw his disguise off on the ground, making Meowth, Bartok, and Fidget pant in relief, glad to be out while Merlock's group and their henchmen appeared)*

Bartok: (Gasping a bit) Finally! We couldn't breathe in there.

Rasputin: Tell that to someone who cares.

Vanitas: But who cares? We did it!

Merlock: (Laughing evilly a bit in agreement) And the lamp's all ours!

Myotismon: That's my dark cunning boy!

Vanitas: (Chuckles evilly a bit, flattered) Father, you are too kind.

*(Vanitas reached into the cloak's pocket where he put the lamp in. But all he could feel is nothing but air. Vanitas searched the pocket frantically)*

Vanitas: Wait, where is it?

Myotismon: (Shocked) What?!

Negaduck: (Getting angry) You lost it?!

*(Suddenly realizing, Vanitas spoke up)*

Vanitas: Those stupid boys and their brat friends must have taken it!

Bulba: Then open the cave again!

Splatter Phoenix: Quickly!

*(Megavolt noticed the two scarab halves have melted)*

Megavolt: Uh, big shocking problem....

*(They see the melted halves and got shocked)*

Merlock's group: NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

*(The shout then echoed into the night)*

***Coming up: Bart's group, along with Marahute, have survived, but are trapped in the closed empty underground cave. They then discover what the lamp is upon close inspection; A magic vessel containing a certain chimera-like god of chaos, a certain goofy copper robot, and a certain male boy duck who'll help grant only Bart three wishes and help them escape the cave. Back at the palace, Volteer's group learn from their daughters/nieces about the secret execution and after Merlock's group, their henchmen, and even Darkwing's group, with Darkwing and Gizmoduck as Drake and Fenton, are berated for this, Merlock's group and their henchmen then secretly decide to come up with a new plot to get the throne.***
