Kingdom of Arendelle

Frozen Realm

May 16th, 2020

3:30 AM

Arendelle, a kingdom that was once a blooming city of beauty and wonder, is now nothing but a frozen wasteland. The sky was black with the red moon glittering in the background. For months, the sun never shined even once. The civilians were either starving to death or most of them died due to a disease or the dark magic that surrounded the kingdom. Kristoff was sick and Olaf was slowly losing the flurry that Elsa gave her. Many people were beginning to lose hope and faith. However, out of everyone that was in the prison, Anna was the only one that was trying to find ways to break out. Still, even if she was chained up, she will not go down quietly. She tried and tried to break the lock of the chains.

Anna: [breaking the chain lock] "Come on...Come on...." [Click] "Yes!"

Anna freed her right hand and then she freed her left hand. She then ran up to Kristoff and freed him from the misery that he endured for months. Not far behind was Olaf. Anna broke out of the cell while carrying Kristoff on her shoulder. For a girl her size, she was really strong.

Anna: [Looks at Olaf] "Come on...Let's get out of here."

Olaf nodded his head and followed Anna. While walking down toward the exit, Anna looked around her and noticed that the civilians were either crying, traumatized, broken or dead. But when they saw their Queen fighting and not giving up, it gave them a sense of hope knowing that if she escapes, she can send help to Arendelle.

After carrying Kristoff for minutes, Anna made her way down to the horse stable. She looked inside to see if there were any soldiers in the area. Thankfully, there were none. She carried him inside the stable and Olaf shut the door behind him.

Olaf: "So... Now what?"

Anna: [Grabs a horse and a saddle] "We need to get help. If we don't do something now, then Arendelle will continue to be nothing but a wasteland. I am not gonna let my people suffer in the hands of a king that is nothing but a selfish bastard."

Olaf: "Oh...okay then. Um...I think you need to calm down, Anna. You're kind of getting out of character..."

Anna: [finishes prepping the horse] "...Olaf, I want you to understand something."

Olaf: "...What is it?"

Anna: [Kneels down and gets to the same level as Olaf] "We spent months and months of being torture by the Heartless. I've seen my people getting dragged out by the heartless for either an execution or just getting fed by the Jumping Jacks or Death Angels. I'm not gonna sit here and let Hans do whatever he wants to my people. So, at this point, I don't care if I'm out of character. When I find Oblivion... I'm gonna treat him the same way as he treated my sister. I'll do whatever it takes to find him, and no one's gonna stop me. I don't care if I lose an arm, I don't care if I lose my hearing, I don't care if I lose my sight, but most importantly...If anyone tries to stand in my way...I'll kill them."

Olaf looked into Anna's eyes and knew that the Anna that was nice, scared, and innocent was long gone. This was a new Anna, an Anna that was full of anger, pain, suffering, guilt, and a lot of other things. But all Olaf did was hugged Anna and comforted his broken friend.

Olaf: "I may have no idea what you endured since the heartless never even bothered to look at me nor tortured me, but I can say this." [Puts a hand on her shoulder] "Don't let the darkness consume your heart, be the flicker of hope that everyone needs. And this kingdom needs hope."

Anna looked at Olaf and all of the anger and guilt along with the other emotions just vanished. She at him and thanked him for his words. Just then, Kristoff started coughing and Anna quickly ran to her husband's side.

Anna: [Puts a hand on his chest] "Darling..."

Kristoff: [Wheezing and gasping for air] "Anna...Please....I...I can't...."

Anna: "Hang on Kristoff, we're gonna make it."

Kristoff all of a sudden caught out a huge chunk of blood and Anna knew that he wasn't going to last. Thankfully, there was a realm portal just 20 miles north of them, but it was guarded by Death Angels. Anna looked at Olaf and came up with an Idea.

Anna: "Okay Olaf, I need you to do me a favor."

Olaf: "Anything for you missy!"

Anna: "Shh!"

Olaf: "Sorry..."

Anna: "I need you to go to Corona, tell Rapunzel that I'm all right, and I need an extraction along with medical treatment. Tell them, I'm gonna be at North Mountain waiting for them...Can you do that for me?"

Olaf: [Military salute] "Yes Ma'am."

Anna smiled and then they heard a noise coming from the door. They stood frozen in fear praying that it wasn't a heartless soldier or a jumping jack. But it was Bruni, the Lizard.

Anna: "Bruni!"

Bruni ran up to Anna and nuzzled her with excitement. Anna placed Bruni on Olaf and put Kristoff on the back of the horse. As Anna hopped on the saddle, she looked down at Olaf and gave a soft warm smile.

Anna: "Take care of yourself, Olaf."

Olaf: [Smiles] "You too...Your majesty."

Anna smiled one last time and whipped the horse. It sprinted out of the Stable and into the open. Neither Heartless nor Jumping Jack was in sight as she rode to freedom. Olaf looked at Bruni and nodded his head.

Olaf: "Come on...we got a kingdom to save."

As Anna reached the top of the hill, she turned back to see her kingdom one last time. Her home, the memories that she made with her sister, is nothing but a wasteland.

Anna: "I promise I'll be back for you. Just a little longer...I promise."

6:30 AM

As the sun was beaming down through the blinds, Boss's eyes began to open up. He stood up from the bed and looked around.

Boss: [Puts a hand on his head] "Uh...What the hell happened last night?"

Suddenly, as soon as he put his hand down, he felt something warm. A warm sensation that was soft and warm and the more he groped at it, the more familiar he got until he realized who it was.

It was Iahfy, sleeping next to him on the bed. He was finally starting to get the realization and pulled his hand rapidly. He looked under the covers and at that particular moment, he now remembered what they did last night.

Boss: "Oh God...."

Iahfy started to wake up from the commotion that Boss made. She slowly opened her eyes and at that moment when she sat up, she spotted Boss and quickly clutched the covers against her body. They looked into each other's eyes and Iahfy saw the distress and worry ness written all over his face, causing her heart to sink to the pit of her stomach.

Boss: "Iahfy...Did we -"

Iahfy: "I...I am a horrible person..."

She turned her back against him with the covers still hugged against her, revealing her red pure skin. Boss was at a loss of words, still not certain if the both of them crossed the line last night or not. After a few moments, Iahfy reached forward for something on the nightstand on her side of the bed. And when she brought her hand up, Boss's heart tightened a bit, but at the same time, he felt relieved. In her hand was an open "pack", which meant two things.

One, they definitely did it last night. And two, at least he had protection.

Boss: "Iahfy....I...."

Iahfy: "I'm horrible...I took advantage of the situation when you were drinking, just to satisfy my own selfish needs...." [Hugs herself tightly and had a few tears streaming down her face] "I'm sorry..."

Boss was heartbreaking to see his friend like this, he had never seen her like this before. The usual funny, loud, energetic, brave, and cunning demon girl he had known, was behind a wall of guilt, anger & disappointment. Part of what she said was true, he wasn't going to deny that. But at the same time, she was putting a lot of blame on herself.

Boss: "Iahfy, stop...you're not the one at fault here, well...not totally that is." [scoots over next to her and puts a hand on her shoulder] "I wasn't myself either, and I didn't say anything. It's my fault as well...so...don't put all the blame on yourself."

Iahfy: [looks at him] "But I used you...just to satisfy my own lustful needs. Normally, a person would yell at someone who took advantage of them when they were drunk. Especially, what I am and where I'm from. Aren't you...mad?"

Boss thought about it for a moment. Yes, it is true that she took advantage of him when he was tipsy and he should be mad, but for some reason, he just couldn't be mad at her. Okay, he was mad, but not fully mad. Iahfy was worried and she was on the verge of crying from the prospect of whatever terrors in her brain mustered up. But the moment that she looked at him, Boss gave her a soft, reassuring smile as he looked at her.

Boss: "I'm not gonna lie Iahfy... I'm a little bit mad...but, at the same time...I'm...happy that I did it with you."

Iahfy was surprised and happy by the good nature of Boss and the meaning behind his words, she was even touched by them. She smiled at him and Boss couldn't help but chuckle as he put a hand on her back, happy to see her smile again.

Boss: "Do you feel better now, Iahfy?"

Iahfy: "Yes...I do. Thanks, Boss." [blushes and plays with her hair] "About...last night...was I-"

Boss put a finger on her lips stopping her from asking the question that he already knew the answer to. He took his finger off when she closed her mouth again. He nodded his head and smiled.

Boss: "Yes, It was amazing, Iahfy."

She blushed and played with her hair a bit. The covers that were held against her body began to fall a little bit.

Iahfy: "I just wish it didn't take me drinking just to confess to you...it wasn't really me." [Nervously laughs]

Boss could tell that Iahfy meant it. Alcohol can be a powerful thing if you use it unwisely and he couldn't blame her for that. If he were in her position, he would've wanted to confess by his own will, not under the influence of alcohol. He looked at the clock and noticed that it was still early. With a little grin, and turned back to Iahfy and rubbed her back again.

Boss: "It's still too early, and we're considering the party last night, there is a slight chance that anyone is gonna wake up soon. So..." [Blushes and rubs the back of his head nervously]

Iahfy: "Boss...?"

Boss: "What I'm trying to say is...Would...Would you like to try again? Iahfy?"

Iahfy was fully surprised when Boss asked that question. She was surprised once again by his good heart and willingness to make her happy. She knew that Boss was one of the few men that had a genuinely good heart and soul, a man that any woman would want. She blushed and laughed a little. Iahfy gave him a little shove before she laughed happily with him. Using her hand to clutch the covers against her body while the hand she leaned on, she twisted her body a little bit towards him.

Iahfy: "Are you sure?"

Boss: [Smiles at her] "Yes Iahfy, you deserved a second chance."

Iahfy blushed again and her cheeks were redder than her skin. With her left hand, she let go of the sheets along with the comforter and revealed her breasts to Boss. He blushed when he saw her breasts. She then leaned in and kissed him on the lips. She pulled away as they looked at each other.

Iahfy: "I like you, Boss..."

She got on top of him and started to kiss him with more passion as her breasts pressed against his bare chest. She pulled away as they looked into each other's eyes.

Boss: "Uh...I don't have an extra pack..."

Iahfy: [In heat] "Don't you have another~?"

He reached for his jacket and sure enough, he had an extra one. Iahfy got off him to let him put it on. Once it was secured, Iahfy bit her lip, leaned in toward Boss. And they went at it again, but this time, sober.

3:30 PM

The following day was back to business. Everyone went their own ways and did their things. Iahfy was with Bruno, Fuuno, Grandpa Aren & Ace in the Kitchen, Moka was at the training room, the Delta Team was playing cards & Boss was making his way toward the briefing room with James. James noticed that Boss was in a happy mood and full of energy.

James: [Smirks] "Somebody looks happy today."

Boss: [Looks at him] "What do you mean?"

James: "Judging by the look on your face, I say that something amazing must have happened to you. So what happened Boss, you can tell me."

Boss: [Smirks and rolls his eyes] "mm...Nah. I don't feel like telling you."

James: "Oh come on...Don't be like that." [Puts an arm around his shoulder] "We're buddies."

Boss: "Pfft yeah sure, last time I checked...You hated my guts when we first met."

James: "Well....that's because I thought you annoying, selfish, and stubborn."

Boss: [rolls his eyes] "Talk about honesty."

James: [Chuckles] "But that was in the past. Now, you can't believe me or not. But you're one of the coolest guys I ever met."

Boss: [Smirks at Him] "I sense sarcasm for you." [As he walks ahead of him]

James: "Oh, Come on!"

Boss couldn't help but laugh at him as they made their way toward the briefing room. By the time they got there, Blue squadron was there, Amelia was there, and by surprise, Sora was there as well along with some other forces from Zootopia. Boss and James took their seats just as the officer announced Bogo's arrival.

Officer: "Attention!"

Everyone stood up and saluted Commander Bogo, he had a serious face as usual and Boss knew that this mission was gonna be risky.

Bogo: "Alright, Alright. Everybody sit." [Everyone takes a seat] "I have two things that I want to say. First, we need to acknowledge the elephant in the room...Joseph." [Everyone looks at the elephant] "Happy Birthday."

Everyone went completely nuts when he said that and Joseph was living it up. He turned 25 today and he was part of the Zootopian 101st.

Bogo: "Alright settle down now. Let's get to business." [Lights go off and the projector turns on] "Intelligence reports that Tartarus are developing nuclear arms and a new weapon codenamed 'T2' a weapon of mass destruction. The Allied Forces' top brass have decided to send troops across the Southern Border into Tartarus to check for nuclear arms and secure resource interests."

Boss and James sighed heavily and knew that this was gonna be a long hard mission. The projector shows a map of Tartus and the realm portal is on the southern border.

Bogo: "Centered on the ruined base of Heartless Castle, the Southern Border, Tartarus's long line of defense, stretches seven thousand kilometers from the Eastern Border of Tartarus to the Border of the Heartless Republic. Situated at the peak of Mt. Icarus, the ruins of Heartless Castle have been transformed into a modern base filled with anti-aircraft artillery and a powerful defense system. The Galm Team's mission is to launch an aerial strike on Heartless Castle, opening a door to Tartarus for our ground troops."

Boss & James: (In Mind) 'Great...a superpower modified castle.'

Bogo: "In all probability, this will be an extended operation. You will be able to refuel during the latter half of the mission. If you're low on fuel or ammunition, temporarily withdraw from the battle and return to base. Good luck everyone."

Just as everyone was about to leave the room, Bogo spotted James and Boss as they were about to leave.

Bogo: "Boss, James, I need a word with you."

They both looked at each other and had sweat drops. Something was telling them that they were gonna be yelled at or something else.

Boss: "Yes sir?"

Bogo: "I know that this is last minute, But I want to inform you that you'll be having a new member in your squadron."

James: "Who's the member, sir?"

Bogo: [Smirks and points] "He's sitting right to you."

The both of them turned their heads and spotted Sora walking toward their direction.

James & Boss: "Sora?!"

Sora: [Smiles] "Hehe. Hey guys. What's happening?"

Bogo: "From this point on, Sora will be your new wingman and will be placed as Galm Team's Number 3."

Sora: [Winks and crosses his arms] "Looking forward to working with ya."

Boss and James were shocked by the news and couldn't believe what they heard. The former hero of Disney is gonna be their new wingman.

Boss: "But...He hasn't received any pilot training. He wouldn't last for a second." [Looks at Sora] "No Offence."

Sora: [Smirks] "You'll be surprised, my friend. For the last couple of months, I've been hitting the simulator non-stop. Besides, the commander saw my skills and decided that I should take part in the mission." [Puts his arms around Boss and James] "Now Come on, Let's take out that castle."

Gravity Falls Forest District

Gravity Falls Realm

May 17th, 2020

3:50 PM

Oblivion: "So...They have taken the bait."

Mayhem: "Yes, my love. Our spy has reported that they are about to attack Heartless castle as we speak. Should I launch fighters to intercept them?"

Oblivion: "No...Leave them be. We can not foil our plan. Let them attack the castle. We don't need that Base anyway. However." [Looks down at Grunkle Stan with his foot on his chest] "We can claim this realm as ours." [Pulls out a .44 magnum] "Any last words gramps..."

Grunkle Stan looked at Dipper and his friends who had tears streaming down their faces. He looked to his right and saw Wendy was bleeding while being held down by heartless soldiers and his brother was being eaten alive by Jumping Jacks. He looked all around and saw many people running and screaming while being chased by the Heartless. For the first time, The Brave and Noble Grunkle Stan was scared out of his mind. But kept his cool and looked at Oblivion dead in the eye. Showing no fear.

Grunkel: [Grunts & Pants] "You...you may take my life. But you'll never take my glorious spirit. There will always be someone...to stop you. You'll never take over Disney."

Oblivion: [Chuckles] "On the contrary old man." [Puts the gun away and pulls out a knife] "I already have."

Grunkel opens his eyes in horror as Oblivion plunged the knife into his chest.

Dipper & Friends: "NOO!!"

Grunkle looked at Dipper one last time and said something that Dippler understood before his eyes rolled back and died. Oblivion pulled the knife out of Grunkle's chest and looked at Dippler with an Evil smile that will haunt him for the rest of his life.

Oblivion: [Looks at the soldier next to him] "Bring the girl over."

The soldier walked up to the other soldier, that was holding Mable, and grabbed her by the hair. Mable was grunting in pain as she was being dragged by the soldier. Dipper was trying desperately to break free but to no avail. The soldier threw Mable on the ground right in front of Oblivion. She looked up and had tears streaming down her face in horror while holding the magic wand that had the power to destroy all of Gravity Falls.

Oblivion: "Hand me the wand, girl..."

Mable tried to put up a brave face, but it was no use. Her tears streamed down her face as she looked at him. No matter how innocent Mable may look, Oblivion didn't even give a damn.

Oblivion: "Give it to me...NOW!"

She had no choice and handed the magic wand to Oblivion. He took it from her hand and looked at it while giving an evil smile. Mable looked at him and had anger in her eyes.

Mable: [Tears streaming down her face] "You're a monster."

Oblivion: [Looks at Mable and bends down to her height] "You're right...I am a monster. A monster...that can say this."

Oblivion put a finger on her chest and Mable was in total terror about what he was gonna do next. She looked at Dipper who was trying everything in his power to break free from the heartless soldiers' grasp. Mable smiled at Dipper one last time and Dipper looked at her sister with horror.

Oblivion: "...Stop breathing."

Mable put her hands on her throat as she collapsed on the ground trying to breathe.

Dipper: "MABLE!"

Dipper finally broke free of the Heartless soldier's grasp and ran toward her sister's side. The soldiers tried to catch him, but Oblivion stopped them. Mable was twitching and twitching trying to breathe as she put a hand on Dipper looking at him. Dipper looked at his sister with horror and the last thing he saw was her sister's eyes roll back. Mable, the cutest and most innocent girl of Gravity Falls, is dead. Dipper held his dead sister, begging her not to leave him. Oblivion put his hands behind his back and watched the whole scene unfold, satisfied with what he did.

Oblivion: [Sighs and makes an Evil Smirk] "Sad isn't it...I thought that she would last longer...hm, guess not."

He found a torch on the ground, lit it up with some fire magic, and tossed it to a nearby tree. Oblivion turned around as he walks away with Mayhem & some Heartless soldiers guarding him. Dipper looked at Oblivion and had anger in his eyes. He laid down his dead sister and grabbed Grunkles pistol, pointing it at Oblivion.

Dipper: [Points gun at him] "FACE ME!"

Oblivion kept walking and didn't turn around to face him.

Dipper: [Tears streaming down his face] "Face me you Basterd..."

Dipper pulled the trigger as the bullet went flying toward Oblivion & what came next, shocked him. Oblivion caught the bullet and threw it on the ground. He extended out his hand as he used dark magic to take the gun from Dipper's hand. Dipper was too shocked by what he just witnessed.

Oblivion: [Chuckles & Smirks] "You were never a hero kid...You were never a hero."

Dipper watched as Oblivion walked away and collapsed on his knees as the forest around him was burning down. As the soldiers were about to take him, Wendy, Soos, and Pacifica. Dipper, for the first time in his life, understands what true fear feels like. The sky began to turn black and the moon became blood red, just like the one over Arendelle. The realm of Gravity Falls has fallen.

Mt. Icarus, Southern Tartarus

Underworld Realm

May 17th, 2020

4:20 PM

Meanwhile in the underworld. Boss, James, and Sora, along with their allies, arrived at their destination. Boss looked around and saw that there was nothing but cloudy skies.

Sora: [Rolls his eyes] "Nuclear inspection, huh? What a joke..."

Boss and James looked at Sora as they flew through the cloudy dark skies over the Mt. Icarus Range. The three of them led a giant squadron of Guardians, Zootopians, and pilots from the Realm of Mulan, on aerial attack toward Heartless Castle. The return line is just south of their position. An allied bomber squadron from Zootopia will bomb specific targets to limit the castle's defense capabilities later on. It was going to be a long day. Just then, it started to rain.

Boss: [Looks up] "It started to come down."

AWACS: "Fire away at Heartless Castle. Your job this time is to take out their defense mechanisms. A "return line" is located on the south side of the operation airspace. All units can pass over this line whenever they need to resupply. Begin the Operation!"

Boss: "Roger that. All units follow me."

Everyone followed Boss as they began the operation. Suddenly, a flare was fired in the air and everyone knew that things were gonna get serious.

James: "Looks like they know we're here! Let's go!" [Does a barrel roll to dodge a missle]

Seconds later, they were welcomed by a storm of gunfire and SAM missiles. The castle came to life in a blink of an eye.

Zootopian Pilot: "Look Out!"

Boss turned around and saw an F-14 zootopian tomcat get shot out of the sky and went down in a fireball, exploding as soon as it hit the ground. James noticed that there were hidden hangers on the side of the mountain.

James: "Boss, there are hidden hangers on the side of the mountain. I advised that we should take them out immediately before they launch any fighters." [Takes out an AA Gun]

Boss: "Good call James. Sora, you're with me. Let's show these bastards what happens when you mess with the upper world!" [Dives at the hidden hangers]

Sora: "Right with you buddy!" [Goes after Boss] 

They dove down at the hidden hangers and fired a missile into each one causing an explosion. A plume of fire rushed out from inside before it started to collapse. Sora did the same thing on the other side of the hill. James destroyed a SAM as he flew by it. A streak of gunfire followed behind him and his left-wing was scraped.

James: "Dammit, These guys aren't fooling around!" [Pulls his x-wing up]

Mulan Pilot: [Dodges a missile] "It's hell out here, from above and below us."

Female Zootopian Pilot: [Going down in flames] "I'm hit, I'm going down!"

Boss watched in terror as a second missile hit the underside of an f-14 tomcat. The female pilot wasn't able to bail out, killing her instantly when the missile hit the underside of her jet. Boss's anger grew instantly as he was watching his comrades fall right out of the sky. One by one.

Boss: [Growls] "Dammit!"

Boss dodged the missiles that have been tracking him for some time now and continued his attack on the castle. He launched 2 missiles at the castle whipping out a big chunk of the SAMs and AA guns. James took out the last target in the castle and their forces regrouped with each other. However, two of their allies were shot in the initial attack on the first sector.

AWACS: "Sector A's been taken care of. Head for the other sectors."

Galm Team, Blue squadron, and all of the other forces regrouped and Boss led them down to another valley past the first sector, they faced a small band of AA guns in isolated sections of ruins along the way to the centermost sector of Heartless Castle. Prometheus, home to the nerve center and control tower of the entire fortress. If they take it out, destroying the other sectors would make it a lot easier.

Jess: [looks down and spots a group of down fighter aircraft] "Check it out, It took a lot of gunfire to make those holes."

They all looked down and saw the down fighters with a bunch of holes in them.

Zootopian Pilot: "Plane Wrecks, Prometheus must've shot 'em down here."

Boss: [Sad look] "Poor bastards. Get ready guys, we're approaching the next sector."

Boss and his squadron egressed slowly and steadily toward the next sector. Many of the pilots, except for James, Boss, Jess, & Sora, gulped down some saliva as they approached the giant tower bristling with flak cannons. This was the nerve center of the entire fortress. Even in the other sectors, there were a lot of heartless AA guns, Ion cannons, and SAM systems that were ready to take them out. On the mountainsides, Sora spotted some pillboxes. And above the control tower was a squadron of Tie fighters and Mig-29's. Boss knew that the Zootopian & Mulan air force was no match against tie fighters. They knew they were coming.

Boss: "Galm 1 to all Zootopian & Mulan Units. We'll handle the tie fighters, you deal with the Migs."

Zootopian Pilot: "You've got it Boss." [Turns his f-14 and faces the migs]

Mulan Pilot: "Wilcon." [Follows the zootopian pilot] 

Before Boss and his squadron could attack the tie fighters, they were welcomed by flak cannons who were shooting high explosive shells at them and they detonated around them.

James: "Evase of action!" [Pulls his x-wing up]

Boss reached the end of the valley first and took out the pillboxes that were on the side of the mountain. He lifted his x-wing up as it gained speed, rushing past the heartless ground forces, it distracted them long enough for his allies to split from the valley and spread out all over the sector of Prometheus. They started to engage all of the heartless forces.

James: "Dammit! This flak is annoying as hell!" [Fires a proton torpedo at the control tower and lifted his x-wing up]

Jess: "They must hate our guts to put something up like this." [Shoots down a tie fighter and avoided an attack from a mig-29]

Boss dived down after his steep climb and shot down two tie fighters that were on the two Zootopian Tomcats. The Tomcats formed up with Boss as they dived down toward the fortress dodging bullets along the way. His bones rattle as he felt his x-wing got hit by gunfire.

Boss: "Sora, James, use your rockets on that control tower! I'll be right behind you!"

Sora & James: "Roger!"

James & Sora dived down toward the control tower and both of them fired two missiles at the lower part of the tower. The impact caused many of the heartless soldiers to grab on to something and prayed to God that the tower didn't collapse on them. Some of the flak cannons got caught in the explosion.

Boss: "How do you like that ya Heartless Bastards?! Hahahahaha!" [Flips his x-wing and dives at the fortress]

Boss fired two missiles and quickly flew away to let the missiles do their thing as they flew toward the fortress at high speed straight through the ceiling on the first level of the tower. A massive explosion shot upwards and outwards through the windows. The stones around the structure began to collapse and after a couple of minutes, the tower collapsed, creating a large cloud of dust and smoke over the area. With that, the remaining forces were taken care of easily allowing the pilots to relax and take a breather. Another squadron of Zootopian Planes flew in from the south to replace their fallen comrades.

Mulan Pilot: "Around thirty percent of the enemy forces are under our control. Follow the Galm Team!"

Everyone spread out to cover the last three sectors. One in the southwest, one in the northwest, and another in the northeast.

AWACS: "Sector E has been stripped from all functions. Well done."

Many of their allies, who were attacking the other sectors, began to fly in and out of the airspace to refuel and resupply. Boss, James & Sora decided to go alone toward the sector in the southwest. As they made their way there, they spotted an area occupied with soldiers and fuel tanks that were mostly filled with one thing that the world loves. Oil. Sora dove down at the area and Boss knew what he was gonna do.

Boss: "Sora, leave 'em be. They're not important."

Sora gritted his teeth and obeyed Boss's command. They spared the life of the soldiers that were in the area. They spotted a small group of AA guns and SAMs.

James: [Smirks] "So this is the mighty Heartless Castle?"

They wiped out the ground forces within minutes and continued on the attack, Boss looked at his rocket ammo and noticed that he was high, but he really didn't need it. Their enemy must have been aware of their presence because there were 2 squadrons of tie fighters waiting for them, they intercepted them halfway. The three squadrons converged and a great battle ensued. Boss instantly took down the two ties and became their primary target. Allowing James to come up behind as they were chasing Boss. Sora took out the remain fighters and formed up with Boss and James.

James: [Forms up with Boss] "Let you guard down for a second and you'll be chopped up into pieces."

Boss: [Rolls his eyes] "Yes, dad~"

Boss, James, and Sora followed the retreating forces as they returned to their allies. When they got closer a larger castle, then one in the first sector, appeared in the distance. No, it was not the castle itself, but close enough. It was filled with AA Guns and SAM units all over the place. The skies were filled with AH-64 helicopters, along with tie fighters and the remaining fighters that had ambushed them from before.

Boss: [looks at James] "You ready James?"

James: "You bet buddy!"

Boss: [looks at Sora] "Sora?"

Sora: "Let's do this!"

Boss went after the Apaches since they were easy targets. He laughed at their attempt to shoot him down. His x-wing overpowered the helicopters easier as he swooped down and took them out in a blink of an eye. He heard bullets and lasers passing by his canopy as he blew past one of the ramparts of the castle and deduced them to nothing. Attacking from above would offer them a chance to take out Boss Easily. So he'll have to make it quick.

Boss: "I have to take out the other enemies first, so that way we can end this dreadful mission earlier."

He looked up and noticed a Mig-29 trying to attack from above. Unimpressed, he turned his x-wing and took care of the Mig easily. He then attacked a group of AA Guns and SAMs, easily.

Boss: "How's it going at your end guys?"

James: "All set and done." [Takes out the last tie fighter]

Boss: "What about you Sora?"

Sora: [Destroys the last ground unit] "These guys are too easy!"

They formed up and began to attack the two ramparts of Heartless Castle, weaving and ducking through the firestorm of bullets & lasers as they attacked it with bombs and missiles. But no matter how many times they attack the castle, the massive stone structures wouldn't move.

Boss: "Dammit! What kind of material did they use to build the fortress? It's not even Budging!!"

James: "Even in the old days, Tartarus had exceptional engineering skills."

Boss: [Sarcastic] "Thanks for the history lesson Captain Obvious!"

Boss did the same maneuver that he did from the sector before. He attacked from above as the missile easily broke through the ceiling of the rampart. James & Sora did the same maneuver as Boss did and the entire sector was cleared, not even a single soldier was in sight.

AWACS: "No more attacks are coming from sector B. All forces, retreat from the air space to restock and refuel. The Allied bombers will deal with the remaining heartless installations."

Boss, James, and Sora let out a sigh of relief as they escorted the Zootopian & Mulan units back to a nearby Air Force base to refuel and rearm.

As their allies began to land, the Galm Team and Blue Squadron were circling the base waiting for their allies to fuel and rearmed for the final attack on Heartless Castle. Once they were refueled and armed, they rushed back to the front lines to witness the final bombings of sector C by allied B-52 Zootopian bombers. Just ahead of them was Heartless Castle.

AWACS: "Sector C has been taken care of. 80% of enemy forces are under our control. It's time to rock and roll people! All units, eliminate Heartless Castle!"

Boss: [Smirks] "Follow Me, Boys!"

As the allied bombers retreated from the airspace. The remaining heartless fighters in the air, all converged around the castle to prevent the allied forces from advancing. Boss, Sora & James reunited with their Zootopian & Mulan Comrades for one final push. They looked through their hud and were surprised to find multiple targets on the ground. The castle had gathered every soldier and weapon they couldn't find for one last defense. They weren't gonna go down easily.

Boss: "Oh God..." [Dodges a flak explosion and some AA gun fire]

Female Mulan Pilot: "Mayday, Mayday! I'm going down, repeat I'm going-" [radio silence]

Zootopian Pilot: "Dammit, my wing's been blown off!"

The screams and cries of their fallon dead comrades haunted Sora for just a moment and little did he know, his heart began to turn cold. They focused on two towers on top of the castle first and fired their missiles at it in the middle section. The castle was being ripped apart but somehow, it's still standing strong. Just then, Jess came up with an Idea.

Jess: [Dodges a missle] "Aim your missiles & bombs toward the base of the tower! If we cut off the support, the whole thing will fall like a giant tree!"

James: "I've got it! Cover me!"[Dives down toward the base of the castle]

Boss: "Wait, James! Are you crazy?!" [Goes after him]

James was dodging enemy fire and skillfully aimed for the supporting pieces that hold the castle, intending to destroy the castle once and for all. Sora in the meantime was high above watching them dive at the castle.

James: [Shoots Missles] "Missiles Away!"

The missile hit its target and the base of the castle was engulfed in flames and smoke. A few seconds later, the castle began to collapse on itself and anyone that was inside the castle was instantly crushed by the stones & rock.

Boss: "Aim for the base!" [Sees the target and dives right into the heart of battle] 

Boss and the other pilots began their descent on the castle. Suddenly, one of the Zootopian pilots on Boss's right, became a fireball after a missile directly hit the nose of the plane. Boss and the other pilot served to the right after launching their missiles. They hit their targets and the castle began to collapse on itself. Boss turned on his radio to hear what the Heartless were saying.

****

Heartless soldier: "Abandon Anti-Aircraft Bunker 4! There's nothing of use there now!"

Female Heartless Soldier: "It doesn't look like the Allied Forces are going to retreat, no matter how many of their units we shoot down!"

Heartless soldier: "Those three X-wings, the ones in black! They're leading the attacks!"

****

Boss shut off his radio and looked down at the castle below. The castle began to teeter over the edge as it fell down toward the valley. Leaving nothing behind, but rubble. The remaining Heartless Forces retreated from the sector and we're taken care of. Heartless castle or Prometheus, has fallen, opening the gate to southern Tartarus.

AWACS: "Heartless Castle's powers have been neutralized. All units return to base."

Boss and his allies regrouped as they headed south to return home. A squadron of allied fighters was coming from the east to establish air superiority. Suddenly, high above the cloudy sky, a bright flash appeared for just a second, and Boss, James, & Sora noticed the slight change in lighting when it happened.

Boss: [looks up] "Huh, Did something flash?"

James: [Chuckles and smirks] "You must be seeing things."

Boss: [looks at James] "I guess, come on. Let's go home."

Sora looked up as he followed Boss and James back to base. If they would have paid attention to their radars, the squadron of allied fighters that were approaching from the east had suddenly vanished without a trace.

7:30 PM

By the time they got back, everyone immediately went to the briefing room for the debrief. But, it wasn't usually energetic and happy. The tension in the air felt negative and tiresome. Just then Commander Bogo came in.

Bogo: "The Operation was a success. Heartless Castle has fallen. The Allied Forces have broken through the southern border, bringing the battle to Tartarus. I must inform you, however, that while you were on your mission, we received a report that the squadron attacking for the east was wiped out by a mysterious attack."

Everyone began to whisper and chatter about the news. Boss & James were stunned by this and Sora didn't show any emotion.

Bogo: "We're looking into it as we speak. In the meantime, get some rest and be ready for your next sortie."

Everyone made their way back to their quarters and as James was walking back with Boss, he turned around and noticed Sora walking toward the other direction. Something was up, he was about to follow him when Boss said his name.

Boss: "Hey James" [James looks at him] "You okay buddy? You look...off a little bit."

James: [Looks at Boss] "...Nah, I was just thinking something personal. Sorry about that." [Nervously chuckles] "Come on, let's get something to eat."

Boss knew that James was up to something but decided to drop it as they made their way toward the cafeteria. But little did they know, a month from now, their lives are about to change...Dramatically.
