Castle of Memories 7A

(OP: Over the Fantasy)

In the Invisible Hand, Delete and his group looked around, then to each other.

Swiper: Now where are we?

Minimus: The floor feels metallic. I can hear asteroids passing by, too...

Ling Ling: I know! We must be inside a ship!

Nemesis: Yeah, I know.

Maximus: Feels strange.

Danny: Well, we'd better find a way out.

June: But which way do we go?

Bloo: Hmmm...this ship feels familiar...can't remember where, though.

Frankie: Knowing you, it'd be in your imagination.

Just then, a familiar female Jedi hopped down in front of them.

Eduardo: Gah!

He ducked down as Wilt spoke.

Wilt: Sorry, but it's not nice to spook people.

Delete: Who are you?

Snake: (to himself) Shaak Ti?

Yumi: (frowns) Yeah, tell us now or else!

Shaak Ti: I am called Shaak Ti. And I am in need of your help.

Yumi: (sighs) Fine, we'll help you out...for now! But don't expect any favors!

Shaak Ti: It's best you follow me. Anakin is waiting for you.

Mac: (confused) Ana-who?

Snake: (sweatdrops) Let'sss just go.

They followed the female Jedi as she spoke.

Shaak Ti: And be careful. General Grievous would hurt you if he caught you here.

The six looked surprised as Bloo spoke.

Bloo: Grievous...Grievous...why does that name ring a bell? I bet it has something to do with someone shiny and ugly.

Yumi punched him in the gut as Shaak Ti glared at him.

Both: Don't say that!

Yumi looked confused while Shaak Ti, blushing a bit, turned away from everyone.

Yumi: (to herself) What is going on here?

(Episode 7: A Friend’s Return Part 2)

World Name: Corusant

In Corusant, the group looked at the droids surrounding the place.

Gaz: Come on, let’s go ahead and kick their butts.

They nodded and charged around the area, attacking the droids. The droids that noticed fired upon the intruders, but the heroes slashed and destroyed the droids.

Delete: Where is this Anakin anyway?

Shaak Ti: He should be around somewhere.

The group kept slashing and destroying each droid along the way, gaining a bit of experience as they did so.

Digit: Yeesh, what is with all these dumb droids anyway?

Gaz: Nevermind that, let’s just keep kicking their butts until we get to wherever Shaak Ti’s leading us.

The group continued fighting the droids until the droids were clear from the path by Shaak Ti’s Force Push.

Delete: Wow...I wish I could learn that.

Snake sighed as he looked at him.

Snake: (quietly) You did onccce...

Everyone eventually came to a room, then looked around.

Delete: (ponders) Is it just me or are all the rooms starting to look the same?

Mac: I did remember some parts of some ship being different, but I don't know what.

Eduardo: Maybe we just going in circles?

Digit: Who invited you again? (groans) Some help she was!

Coco: (glares) Coco!

Shaak Ti: He should be here...I sense it.

Yumi: Who? Tell me or else!

She slapped Yumi as she spoke.

Shaak Ti: Don't touch me like that!

Bubbles: Uh, I think you mighta ruffled her up a bit, Yumi.

Voice: Shaak Ti, what are you doing! You weren't suppose to bring Grievous' forces with you!

Just then, a familiar Jedi jumped out of his hiding place and glanced to them. He brought out his lightsaber as he spoke.

Anakin: Stand back, allies of General Grievous, or this will be the last fight you pick!

Frankie: Hey, don't be so rude! We're not with this Grievous guy!

Swiper: Yeah, we're only here because...because...(to Delete) Uh, why are we here again?

Delete: How the hell am I suppose to know, Swiper?

Snake raised his eyebrow as he spoke.

Snake: (to himself) It'sss worse than I thought...Delete never curssses, no matter what. It'sss looking bad now.

Delete: What does everyone else think?

They all shrugged a bit as Yumi spoke.

Yumi: I don't know, but I sense someone I used to know is around here somewhere.

Anakin then turned off his lightsaber as he grinned.

Anakin: All right, I think I get the picture. Delete, Digit, Mac, Wilt, Eduardo, Coco, Bloo, Frankie, Maximus, Nemesis, Ling Ling, Minimus, Danny, June, Gaz, Snake, Bubbles, Swiper, and Yumi, correct?

All: Yeah.

Anakin: I guess the forces with Grievous wouldn't get lost on their own ship. And you're not dressed like them.

Maximus: I see...

Delete: Now wait, so if you thought we were alien fighters...

Yumi: It must be a spaceship!

They gasped as Anakin nodded.

Anakin: Yes, that's correct. You're trapped inside the cyborg general, Grievous' vessel, the Invisible Hand.

Eduardo: Why does that name sound familiar?

Nemesis: If we're trapped in here, that means you and Shaak Ti are too.

Anakin: No, I'm just staying low until it is our time to make our move. Obi-Wan would have come with me, but he was on a mission.

Gaz: Right, and what move is that?

Shaak Ti: The general has kidnapped Senator Amidala. She has to be on this ship somewhere. I was sent to look for a way around...

Delete: Hmmm, I bet I know what you had in mind! If we all make a huge racket, we can distract him and everyone in this ship.

Snake: (nods) Good job...mussst've read her mind!

Delete: So how about it, Annie? Let's work together, at least until we find the Senator.

Anakin: (nods) Yes. Of course, I could have saved her myself, if I wanted to. But you would be all stuck without me.

Snake: (to himself) Show off...

Digit: Yeesh, don't you have any manners?

The heroes gasped as they saw some Heartless appearing.

Anakin: Come on. We must move!

The heroes nodded, dashing out of the area, slashing and hitting the Heartless. Everyone dodged, attacking some of the pirates and wizards. The Red Nocturnes used their fire spells on them, but they evaded as Digit shouted.

Digit: Time to use a card!

The droid then slashed a card as he shouted.

Digit: CARD SLASH! Kilala Summon Activated!

With that, Kilala, in her huge form, appeared, roaring and blowing flames toward the creatures. The group slashed those that tried running while the demon bit, blew fire, and pounced on the Heartless that tried attacking. Eventually, when they were all gone, Kilala changed back into a summon card.

Digit: (grins) Neat! I knew these cards would come in handy.

The group then found a familiar woman, who used her hair pick to unlock the cell, come out as Anakin and Shaak Ti came to her.

Anakin: There she is!

Everyone came around her as Padme looked surprised.

Padme: (gasps) Oh my gosh! Anakin! And Shaak Ti!

Shaak Ti: Hmmm...why do you pronounce our names without referring to us as Jedi?

Anakin: (hugs her) Padme, are you all right? These newcomers, Shaak Ti, and I have come to rescue you.

The alien woman glanced as she spoke to him.

Shaak Ti: How do you two know about each other anyway?

The two blushed, then sighed.

Anakin: All right, Shaak Ti, you have caught us. We're secretly married, despite a Jedi not suppose to.

Delete: Well I don't see why Jedi can't fall in love or be married. I think it's a cute thing.

Shaak Ti: Jedi are not allowed to have emotions, Delete.

Delete: (shocked) What!? Why not?

Shaak Ti: It can bring you to the dark side.

Digit: Wait a minute!

Frankie: Yeah, how can emotions bring you to the dark side? I mean come on! Anakin here can use the Force and he has emotions!

Shaak Ti: But-

Snake: They're right. I've ssseen people with emotionsss use the Force without turning to the dark ssside.

Shaak Ti: I see...

All while Anakin was talking to Padme.

Anakin: Padme, please...we must get you out of here, back to Corusant before the general can get to you.

Padme: (pauses) Annie, listen. There's something I have to tell you. I want to go back home to Naboo, with you.

Anakin looked stunned at what she said.

Anakin: What are you talking about? You are needed on Corusant because the Chancellor has some news to give you! If you go back, then Shaak Ti will tell and the Jedi Council will make sure we're never together and kick me out!

Padme: I know, Anakin, but...I still want to go home.

He looked down, then glared at her as he spoke.

Anakin: I came to rescue you, and you don't even care if you ever see me again!

Padme: No, you don't understand!

Anakin: Fine! I'll just leave you and while you're at it, just rescue yourself! For we're through!

He then Force speeded away from everyone.

Mac: Hey, wait!

Danny: Come back!

Ling Ling: There he goes.

Padme: (sadly) Annie...

Delete frowned and crossed his arms.

Delete: Not very thoughtful, is he? What do we do now?

Eduardo: Oh, I got an idea! Why don't we think of something after we get to control room?

Bloo: (frowns) That has got to be the most dumbest idea ever!

Wilt: Sorry, but he does have a point...

Yumi: For some reason, I think there's still trouble waiting over there.

Delete then looked at Padme.

Delete: So...why don't you stay here, Miss Amidala? We'll try to create a distraction.

Padme: (nods) Okay, I understand.

Bubbles: Maybe if you stay here, Annie will change his mind and come back.

Padme: I hope so.

The group then left the Senator and female Jedi, heading through the Invisible Hand.

Shaak Ti: Everyone...I’m sorry.

Back with Delete’s group, everyone jumped around, hitting and slashing droids while heading to the elevator.

Swiper: In here!

Everyone made a dash for the elevator. The elevator then opened as everyone saw some droids.

Droids: Don’t move! Roger! Roger!

Everyone nodded, then slashed the droids to pieces.

Bloo: Okay, let’s see how this works?

Bloo then pressed a “Do not press” button, much to everyone’s fear.

All (but Bloo): NO/COCO!!!

It was too late as the elevator shot straight up for a few seconds, then stopped for a moment.

Frankie: Oh great!

Wilt: Sorry, but this is even more bizarre than that other button Bloo pushed.

(Flashback)

Bloo, in a white room, looked at a button, then pressed the button. He then saw what appeared to be Jackie Chan coming to him, bowing, before he was kicked by him.

Bloo: Ow, hurts!

(End Flashback)

Everyone screamed as they all held on to the rails of the elevator while plummeting down.

Eduardo: I is not liking this!

Maximus: You don’t have to tell me twice!

Yumi: Bloo, I’m gonna kill you for this!

Mac: (groans) He can’t help himself, unfortunately!

The elevator then stopped, making everyone groan to the ground. Just then, the elevator kept going up and down, going out of control.

Delete: Oh man, this isn’t funny!

Digit: Yeesh, make up your mind, you stupid elevator!

All: AHHH!!!

The elevator continued going crazy, heading up and down until it finally stopped to where the control room was.

All: Ugh...

Bloo: (grins) Whoa, that was fun.

He then looked at the button that said “Do not press this button again”.

Bloo: Hey, look. Now it said "Do not press this button again!"

Eduardo: Oh...I wanna go home!

Swiper: You ain’t the only one, Eduardo.

Bloo: Still, I wonder if-

Just then, everyone gasped as they quickly grabbed Bloo, dragging him away from the elevator button.

Gaz: No way!

Nemesis: Not again! Not in a million years, you idiot!

Bloo: Yeesh, if you’re calling me an idiot, that must make Cheese the smart one.

Everyone paused for a moment, shuddering at the thought.

Digit: Well, come on, now.

Bubbles: Let’s get out of here before this elevator becomes even more crazy!

Snake: (groans) You and me both.

The group then came to the control room as everyone sighed in relief, groaning after getting out of the elevator.

Coco: Co co!

Yumi: Yep, we finally made it out.

Bloo: Yeah, what can go wrong?

Voice: Ah, there you are, allies of the Jedi!

The group then gasped, then turned around as they saw a strange, yet familiar, cyborg.

Frankie: (groans) You and your big mouth, Blue.

Bloo: AHHHH!!!

Grievous chuckled at the screaming blue blob while Yumi looked at the familiar cyborg.

Yumi: That guy...why does he seem familiar?
