Recovery/Kairi's Group Stands Up to Splatter Phoenix and Ma Belle Evangeline

*(Back in the forest, Kayley’s group, with Kayley, Garrett, and Rika wearing their magic items again, have already made a campfire and are resting for the night. Kairi, meanwhile, is cleaning Wes’ cut)*

Wes: Thanks, Kairi, palsy. *(Winces)* It stings a little, but it’s clean at least.

*(Suddenly remembering something, Kayley asked Kairi's group)*

Kayley: Didn’t you tell us before that you and your sisters can heal wounds and injuries?

Kairi: Yes.

Kairi's group except Kairi: That's right.

*(Yuffie's group got confused)*

Liquidator: They can heal?

Yuffie: Are you serious?

*(Kairi's group nods)*

Yuffie: Come to think of it, my friends and I saw every magic spell, all except healing, of course.

Aqua: Then this could your first time.

B.E.N.: Then heal Wes’ arm.

Ray: Impress 'im and us.

*(Kairi's group took their own amulets off and placed both them and their own hands over Wes’ cut. Then the five girls begin singing as the amulets started to glow a gold light)*

Kairi's group: **Flower, gleam and glow**

**Let your power shine**

**Make the clock reverse**

**Bring back what once was mine**

*(Then Wes’ cut started to glow beneath, much to his, Yuffie, and the Fearsome Four’s surprise. Yuffie, Wes, and Megavolt narrowed at Mushu's group, who nodded with smug smiles. Kayley’s group, however, watched in calm amazement)*

Kairi's group: **Heal what has been hurt**

**Change the Fates’ design**

**Save what has been lost**

**Bring back what once was mine**

**What once was mine**

*(After the song ended, the glow died down and Kairi's group removed their own amulets and hands, revealing Wes’ arm all healed and the sleeves of his shirt and business suit cleaned and repaired, as if it didn’t rip. Kairi's group then puts their own amulets back on. Yuffie, the Fearsome Four, and Ray watched in calm amazement along with Kayley's group)*

Yuffie and Megavolt: Wow….

Quackerjack: So that’s what healing looks like….

Bushroot: Yes....

Liquidator: Incredible....

Ray: Ooh-whee. Now I've seen everythin'.

*(Wes suddenly started to build up a scream and just when he did….)*

Kayley’s group: Don’t scream!

*(Catching himself, Wes tried to make an excuse)*

Wes: (Chuckles nervously a bit) I-I-I wasn’t gonna scream! I was gonna say “Wow” loudly!

*(He chuckles nervously a bit again, but Kayley's group just flatly looked at him, knowing he’s lying. Seeing this, Wes gave in and confessed)*

Wes: Okay, I was gonna scream. But like Yuffie said, our palsies and I never saw healing magic before.

*(He looked at his healed elbow again. Kayley's group then noticed the sword, bo stick, and bow and quiver of arrows Kayley, Garrett, and Rika respectively got)*

Jiminy: What is that sword you got, Kayley?

Applejack: Along with the bo stick and bow and arrows Garrett and Rika got?

Kayley, Garrett, and Rika: These?

Rika: We have no idea.

Garrett: But they each look like the four elements.

Kayley: Consisting water, fire, earth, and wind.

*(Sora's group took a closer look and realized what it is)*

Sora: That’s the Elemental Sword!

Riku: The Elemental Bo Stick!

Roxas: And the Elemental Bow and Arrows!

Kayley: Elemental Sword?

Garrett: Elemental Bo Stick?

Rika: Elemental Bow and Arrows?

Sora's group: Yeah.

Terra: They disappeared ten years ago when a legendary Warrior of Oz died in battle in the trench. It is said that sword, that bo stick, and those bow and arrows each have the power of all four elements; Water, fire, earth, and wind, like Kayley described.

Ray: (Realizing) Oh, yeah! I heard about them legends.

Lea: And evil monsters are really afraid of those weapons, due to being anti-evil and darkness to them. Do ya got it memorized?

Kayley's group: (Interested) Yes....

Ventus: And to make them work their magic, just simply say the name of the element, and each weapon will become that element for attacks. For example, say you want to fight with water, just say “Water.”

Jiminy: And seeing how you found it, I think that sword, that bo stick, and those bow and arrows suit you perfectly.

Twilight Sparkle: Exactly.

*(Understanding, Kayley, Garrett, and Rika nodded)*

Kayley: Thanks. Now Garrett, Rika, and I won’t fight with just kicks, psychic powers, and/or punches.

Garrett and Rika: Yep!

Ray: This be y'all lucky day.

*(Kayley, Garrett, and Rika then placed the Elemental Sword, Elemental Bo Stick, and Elemental Bow and Arrows next to the tree. Then Kayley's group proceeded to ask Yuffie's group some questions)*

Renamon: What talents do you six have, out of curiosity?

Yuffie's group: Glad you asked.

Yuffie: Like I mentioned before, I have karate moves and the moves of a ninja, like the ninja I am!

Wes: That's right!

*(Yuffie then did some karate and ninja techniques and then finished when she accidentally karate chops Soarin's belly, much to their concern)*

Yuffie: Sorry.

Soarin: (Recovering) It's okay.

Wes: Well, I have skills on how to make deals and briberies via skills.

Twilight Sparkle: (Impressed with Kayley's group) Ah, so basically, it takes brains for you.

Wes: You got that right, palsy!

Megavolt: I have electrokinesis.

Pinocchio: What's that?

Megavolt: Power of electricity.

Patch: And understandable that you mustn't touch water.

Spike: Water and electricity never mix.

Renamon: Yep.

Megavolt and Liquidator: Exactly.

Liquidator: Mine is aquakinesis, which is the power of water.

Bushroot: And I can control floral life.

*(They look at Quackerjack)*

Kayley's group: And you, Quackerjack?

Quackerjack: Let's just say I have wackiness, and I'm good at making toys.

Pinocchio: (Excitedly) Toys like me?!

Quackerjack: Yep! My dad taught me how.

*(He then blew his whistle briefly, getting himself, Yuffie, Wes, Megavolt, Bushroot, and Liquidator ready for their talents)*

Quackerjack: (To Yuffie, Wes, Megavolt, Bushroot, and Liquidator) It's playtime!

*(Then the Fearsome Four showed off their powers carefully while Yuffie and Wes performed some karate and ninja skills on fun objects they conjured and then Quackerjack concluded the show with his baseball bat)*

Quackerjack: Playtime's over!

*(Then he lets Yuffie, Wes, Megavolt, Bushroot, and Liquidator throw two little balls, a sparkball, a flower-like ball, and a bubble ball respectively at him, and he hits them with his bat, shattering the balls into pieces, causing a lot of candy to rain down on the group, much to their amazement)*

Kayley's group: (Impressed) Amazing, guys!

Ray: (Impressed) Yee-haw! That be good talents.

*(After applauding a bit and either eating some candy and/or packing the rest of the candy in Kayley, Garrett, Rika, and Sora's group's backpacks, Kayley then turned to Kairi's group)*

Kayley: What do you think of the outside world so far?

Kairi: So far, it’s beautiful.

Namine: And somewhat dangerous.

Aqua: But in a good way.

Sora: That’s what nature is normally.

Riku and Roxas: And human nature.

Terra and Ventus: And regular nature.

Garrett: And civilization.

*(Noticing the campfire dimming, Kayley’s group decided to go gather more firewood)*

B.E.N.: Anyway, let’s get more firewood.

Kairi: Mushu's group, my sisters, and I’ll stay here and keep watch.

*(Kayley's group got surprised)*

Yuffie: Kairi, are you sure?

Patch: Why not have one of us stay here?

Fievel: It could be dangerous.

Kairi's group: Danger? Ha!

Xion: Don’t worry.

Olette: We’ll laugh in the face of danger.

*(Kairi's group laughs haughtily a bit. Kayley's group became impressed by Kairi's group’s courage)*

Tiger: Okay.

Kayley's group: All of you be safe.

Ray: See y'all later, *Chers*.

*(Kairi and Mushu's groups nodded. Then Kayley's group walked off, leaving Kairi and Mushu's groups alone. Once alone, Kairi and Mushu's groups smiled softly)*

Lollie: Those guys aren’t so bad.

Mushu: What nice guys.

*(Cri-Kee happily chirps a bit in agreement)*

Kairi's group: Indeed.

Kairi: Even Sora’s sweet.

Xion: Along with Riku.

Namine: And Roxas.

Aqua: And Terra.

Olette: And Ven.

Mushu's group: You like them, don’t you?

*(Kairi's group looked at them in confusion)*

Kairi's group: Us?

Mushu: Yeah, we can tell.

Molly: And we’re certain Sora, Riku, Roxas, Terra, and Ven like you, too, girls.

Rainbow: Even though they told us they’re going to marry the princesses once they found them, those boys can’t help but show feelings to you girls like you do to them.

*(Kairi's group smiled softly again and looked straight ahead again)*

Kairi: I guess you’re right.

Kairi's group except Kairi: Yeah.

*(Mushu's group then sat underneath the root of the tree Kairi's group’s sitting on)*

Mushu: It ain’t gonna hurt to confess your feelings.

Confetti: At the right time.

*(Kairi's group nods. Then behind them, Splatter Phoenix appeared quietly and then got their attention by speaking, startling them)*

Splatter Phoenix: Well, I thought they’d never leave.

*(Kairi's group got up and turned to her as Mushu's group remained quiet and hidden)*

Kairi's group: Mother?!

*(Splatter Phoenix then went up to them and hugged them)*

Splatter Phoenix: I was so worried about you!

*(Kairi's group ended the embrace)*

Aqua: How did you know…?

Splatter Phoenix: I followed the feeling of deceitfulness and defiance.

*(She takes Kairi's group’s own hands)*

Splatter Phoenix: Now come along, girls. We’re going home.

*(Before Splatter Phoenix took a step, Kairi's group yanked their own hands free)*

Kairi's group: No!

Splatter Phoenix: (In flat anger) Why? Is it because of those lanterns?

Kairi's group: Yes.

Xion: But we’ve seen the entire world of Oz so far!

Namine: It’s beautiful.

Splatter Phoenix: That’s what they want you to believe. You have no idea.

Aqua: Yes it’s dangerous, but we have new friends to protect us.

Olette: In other words, bodyguards.

Splatter Phoenix: Oh, you mean those three thieves, their mongrel and Digimon, and their gang. Especially those boys, Sora's group, right?

Kairi's group: Yes.

Aqua: They’re really nice.

Kairi: And Kayley, Garrett, and Rika are not thieves.

Kairi's group: In fact…. We think my new friends, mostly Sora's group, likes us.

Splatter Phoenix: Likes you? Please, girls. That’s demented.

*(She begins singing)*

Splatter Phoenix: **This is why you never**

**Should have left**

**Dears, this whole**

**Friendship and romance**

**That you’ve invented**

**Just proves**

**You’re too naïve to be here**

*(Kairi's group looked on in disbelief and calm anger. They couldn’t believe Splatter Phoenix is claiming they’re not friendly)*

Splatter Phoenix: **Why would they**

**And those boys like you?**

**Come on now, really**

**Look at you**

**You think that they’re impressed?**

**Don’t be dummies**

**Come with Mummy**

**Mother....**

*(Kairi's group finally shouted in defiance)*

Kairi's group: No!

*(Surprised, Splatter Phoenix then smirked evilly)*

Splatter Phoenix: No? Oh, I see how it is.

*(She then resumed singing in sarcasm)*

Splatter Phoenix: **Kairi's group knows best**

**Kairi's group is so mature now**

**Such five clever grown-up misses**

*(Kairi's group nods haughtily)*

Kairi's group: Yep!

Splatter Phoenix: **Kairi's group knows best**

**Fine, if you’re so sure now**

**Go ahead and ask them**

**About these**

*(She conjured images of the Ruby Slippers, Topaz Bracelet, and Sapphire Hat, much to Kairi's group’s surprise)*

Kairi's group: What?!

Splatter Phoenix: **This is why they’re here**

**Don’t let them deceive you**

**Ask them about these**

**Watch, you’ll see**

Kairi, Namine, and Xion: (Angrily) Fine!

Aqua and Olette: (Angrily) We will!

Splatter Phoenix: **Trust me, my dears**

**That’s how fast they’ll leave you**

**I won’t say**

**I told you so**

**No, Kairi's group knows best**

**So if he and that group are dreamboats**

**Go and put them to the test**

Kairi's group: (Determinedly) We’ll prove you wrong!

Splatter Phoenix: **If they’re lying**

**Don’t come crying**

**Mother knows best**

*(She then vanished into thin air. Kairi's group then sat down on the root again in anger as Mushu's group came out of hiding)*

Mushu's group: Are you okay?

Kairi: We’ll show her!

Namine: They’re our friends!

Aqua: We know for a fact that they would never lie to us!

Mushu: I know! What does she know about love and friendship?

*(They sat silently and then Kayley’s group returned with firewood and they got happy)*

Renamon: We’re back, girls!

Megavolt: B.E.N. makes the best firewood ever besides Yuffie!

Bushroot: With my help, of course!

B.E.N. and Yuffie: (Flattered) Aw, thank you.

*(They threw some firewood into the fire, making it brighter. Kayley then turned to everyone in happiness)*

Kayley: And pretty soon tomorrow, our dreams will come true!

Tiger: Yeah!

*(Then he got concerned)*

Tiger: But what if the Wizard of Oz is scary?

Fluttershy: Hey, it’s okay.

Fievel: If he does scare you, we’ll stand up for you.

Kairi: You can bet on it.

Tiger: You will?

Garrett: Of course.

Mane Eight's group: Never doubt us.

*(Kayley, Garrett, Rika, Fievel, and Kairi's group nodded in agreement, and then they and the Mane Eight's group started singing)*

Kayley: **There is a place we’ll go**

Rika: **Where there is mostly quiet**

Mane Eight: **Flowers and butterflies**

Spike: **A rainbow lives beside it**

Kairi, Namine, and Xion: **And from a velvet sky**

Aqua and Olette: **A summer storm**

Garrett: **You can feel the coldness in the air**

Stallion Eight and Ember: **But you’re still warm**

*(The song continued as Tiger smiled softly, starting to feel better and confident)*

Kayley, Garrett, Rika, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **And then a mighty roar**

**Will start the sky to crying**

Kayley, Rika, and Kairi's group: **Not even lightning**

**Will be frightening our cat-like lion**

*(Tiger got tough as the song continued)*

Fievel: **And with no fear inside**

**No need to run, no need to hide**

Kayley, Garrett, Rika, Fievel, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **You’re standing strong and tall**

Garrett, Fievel, Stallion Eight, and Spike: **You’re the bravest of them all**

Kayley, Rika, Ember, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **If on courage you must call**

Kayley, Garrett, Rika, Fievel, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **Then keep on trying**

**And trying**

**And trying**

**You’re like a lion**

**In your own way**

**Be like a lion**

*(Tiger, feeling brave, joined in)*

Tiger: **I’m standing strong and tall**

Kayley, Garrett, Rika, Fievel, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **Strong and tall**

Tiger: **I’m the bravest of them all**

Kayley, Garrett, Rika, Fievel, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **Of them all**

Tiger: **If on courage I must call**

**I’ll keep on trying**

Kayley, Garrett, Rika, Fievel, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **Trying**

Tiger: **And trying**

Kayley, Garrett, Rika, Fievel, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **And trying**

Tiger: **And trying**

Kayley, Garrett, Rika, Fievel, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **Keep on trying**

Tiger: **I’m like a lion**

**In my own way**

Kayley, Garrett, Rika, Fievel, and Kairi and Mane Eight's groups: **Be like a lion**

Tiger: (At “Like a lion”) **I’m like a lion**

*(After the song ended, Kayley and Fluttershy agreed)*

Kayley: Yes, you are!

Fluttershy: We had a feeling you knew you can do it.

Kairi: Just believe in yourself!

Fievel: And you won’t be afraid anymore!

Garrett: And you can show the world you're brave and not a coward!

*(The others agreed)*

Tiger: Thanks, everyone!

*(The group smiled a “You’re welcome.” Then Ray noticed something in the beautiful night sky and got happy)*

Ray: Hey! There she is!

Wes: Who’s here?

Ray: Why, Evangeline. That’s who!

Kairi: (Interested) Really?

Flippy: I can’t wait to meet this girl!

Chirithy: Where is she?

Ray: Why, she’s up above right there.

*(He points at the sky, revealing that Evangeline is actually a white shining star. Kayley's group got calmly surprised while Mushu, Lea, Megavolt, and Quackerjack gave awkward looks as Ray begins singing)*

Ray: **Look how she lights up the sky**

**Ma belle Evangeline**

*(Mushu, Lea, Megavolt, and Quackerjack started to speak up)*

Mushu, Lea, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: That’s not…!

*(But Kairi, Roxas, Bushroot, and Yuffie quiets them by pinching their arms as Ray continued singing)*

Ray: **So far above me**

**Yet I know her heart belongs to only me**

*(Ray used his glowing rear to draw a heart with a love arrow piercing it, with the initials of his and Evangeline’s names on it)*

Ray: ***J’adore***

Sora, Riku, and Roxas: (Translating) I adore you.

Ray: ***J’taime***

Garrett, Terra, and Ventus: (Translating) I love you.

Ray: **Evangeline**

**You’re my queen of the night**

**So still, so bright**

**To someone as beautiful as she is**

**Could love someone like me**

*(Kayley's group shrugged, deciding to accept Ray’s lovesick behavior to a star like Evangeline. Then Kayley and Garrett, Kairi and Sora, Xion and Riku, Namine and Roxas, Aqua and Terra, Olette and Ventus, Spike and Ember, and the Mane Eight and Stallion Eight felt a twinge of romance from Ray’s song)*

Ray: **Love always finds a way, it’s true**

**And I love you, Evangeline**

*(The couples then danced slowly to Wes’ soft playing on a trumpet he pulled out as Ray shined his rear on them like a spotlight)*

Ray: Ooh....

*(Then he resumed singing)*

Ray: **Love is beautiful**

**Love is wonderful**

**Love is everything**

**Do you agree?**

***Mais* *oui***

*(The couples concluded their slow dancing as the males gently dipped their own female lover)*

Ray: **Look how she lights up the sky**

**I love you, Evangeline**

*(He sighs lovingly after he finished singing. Then the slow dancing's gentle dips ended with the couples hugging each other tenderly. After that’s done, Ray spoke up)*

Ray: And I know what y’all are thinkin’. Why am I in love with a star?

Megavolt: How did you know?

Ray: I saw your reactions before. And I be glad to explain. Y'all see, Evangeline *was* a firefly before. We loved each other wonderfully.

*(Then he became slowly sad)*

Ray: However, she died from cancer in her neck.

*(Kayley's group got calmly shocked, then sympathetic)*

Sunset Shimmer: Bummer.

Megavolt: Sorry for your loss.

Ray: But thankfully, after Evangeline’s funeral, according to legends, turn into that there star in her afterlife.

Twilight Sparkle: (Figuring it out) So, the legends on where stars came from *is* true.

Rainbow Dash: (Nods) Deceased fireflies.

*(Kayley's group slowly realized in a calm happy way)*

Jiminy: How sad, but sweet.

Fluttershy: So, that’s why you said you might eventually be together again.

*(Ray nods in agreement)*

Ray: And I meant it. When I find a way to see her again….

Kayley: Evangeline and you will be together.

Ray: Yeah, *Cher*.

*(Kayley's group smiled calmly. Kairi and Applejack then changed the subject)*

Kairi: Shall we get some sleep?

Applejack: Hit the hay?

*(Realizing, Kayley's group agreed)*

Kayley’s group except Kairi and Applejack: Yes.

*(Kairi's group then conjured up sleeping bags for everyone that suits their personalities. They then tuck themselves in)*

Kayley’s group: Good night.

*(They then go to sleep. Elsewhere in the bushes, Arukenimon, Mummymon, Makuramon, and Splatter Phoenix watched with evil smirks)*

Arukenimon: (Whispering) Looks like tomorrow, we’ll give them all, except Kairi's group, a watery point of no return and get those items back as well.

Splatter Phoenix: (Whispering) Indeed, sweet vengeance.

Mummymon: (Whispering) Make them wish they're never born.

Makuramon: (Whispering) We'll teach those losers a lesson they'll never forget.

*(Then they left for Arukenimon’s castle)*

***Coming up: After Kayley’s group arrive at a bar being run by a crime syndicate which Yuffie's group know of from their past reckless conning before, they accidentally earn the mafia's wrath after they accidentally blew up their bar via the ignited illegally smuggled fireworks, resulting Kayley's group to secretly retreat while a certain mafia leader and his three capos decide to go after them for revenge.***
