Donald:
Sora! Hurry up!

Sora:
Donald?

(Sora runs outside to join his friends in midbattle with the Heartless)

Goofy:
Did ya bring the book, Sora?

(Three Soldier Heartless run out of Merlin's House, one carrying the book)

Sora:
Hey!

Donald:
Give that back!

(They fight the Heartless, but the book's cover gets slashed in the process.

Sora picks it up off the ground)

Sora:
Think it's okay?

Goofy:
Gawrsh, maybe ya better go back and make sure Pooh's all right.

Donald:
But what about Merlin?

Goofy:
Well, I guess we could explain...

Sora:
Great!

(Donald takes the book and holds it open again. Sora reenters and goes to

Pooh's House. Pooh is still sitting on the log)

Sora:
Pooh!

(Sora runs over)

Sora:
I'm so glad you're okay, Pooh.

Pooh:
And I'm glad you came to visit. But you see, I was just about to begin my

stoutness exercises. Perhaps we could visit a bit later...Somebody-I-Don't-Know.

(Pooh hops off the log)

Sora:
Oh...sure.

(Pooh begins to exercise, touching his toes and stretching his legs)

Sora:
So...how's Piglet these days?

Pooh:
I don't think I know anyone by that name. Now where was I? Oh, yes. My

stoutness exercises.

Sora:
Pooh? Hey! Pooh?

(Pooh doesn't notice Sora and says nothing)

Sora:
Something very weird is happening here. Maybe I'd better go back and ask

Merlin about this.

(Sora leaves the book)

Merlin:
Couldn't be bothered to wait up for an old wizard, eh?

Sora:
Sorry about that...

Merlin:
How are things in there?

Sora:
Well... Pooh seems to have forgotten all about me. And not just me---all

his other friends, too.

Merlin:
I was afraid of that...

(Merlin walks over to the book and inspects it)

Merlin:
I suspect it has something to do with those pages the Heartless stole.

You'll have to collect the torn pages and repair the book to put things right.

This book is one of the world's most cherished elements. I'd been meaning to

tell Leon I'd found it, but perhaps we should keep it between us for now.

Sora, Donald, and Goofy: We will!

Merlin:
Good, good... Now, the book isn't all that's cherished... This is for

you, Sora.

Sora:
What is it?

Merlin:
Simply concentrate on it with all your heart, and you need only say the

word to summon an ally who will help in times of need.

Goofy:
Like Simba and Mushu did, the last time we were here?

Merlin:
Precisely. Now go forth, with your friends by your side!

Sora:
Thanks, Merlin. We're worried about Pooh, so we'll be back once we've

found those torn pages.

(Sora pilots the Gummi Ship through the Phantom Storm to a dark underworld,

where above in the Olympus Coliseum, Hercules has just defeated the Rock Titan)

Sora:
Huh?

Goofy:
Are ya sure this is the coliseum?

Donald:
It's that way!

(Donald points to a set of stairs leading upward)

Sora:
Oh... Guess we were a little off.

(They hear a scream and see a woman running from a bunch of Rabid Dog

Heartless. The woman falls and the Heartless are upon her)

Sora:
Heartless!

(Sora and the others run over, scaring the Heartless away. Sora offers to help

her up)

Meg:
Thanks, but...I'm fine.

(Meg stands up)

Meg:
And you're supposed to be?

Sora:
I'm Sora, he's Donald, and that's Goofy. We came to see how Hercules is

doing.

(She looks at each of them in turn)

Meg:
You know Wonderboy?

Donald:
Yeah, 'cause we're heroes, too!

Goofy:
Ya mean, junior heroes, Donald.

Meg:
Looks like we have a friend in common. Name's Megara. My friends call me

Meg.

Sora:
So how's Herc?

Meg:
Wonderboy? Well, he's duking it out at the Coliseum every day. You know,

"a hero's work is never done" and all that. He's ready to drop, but he keeps on

fighting. Even Wonderboy has his limits, though. These opponents are bad

news---special deliveries from Hades himself...

Donald:
Hades!?

Meg:
Right. Lord of the Underworld. I was on my way to see him. Maybe I can get

Hades to give Wonderboy a breather. If anything happens to that kid...

Goofy:
Gawrsh... Sounds like you're more than just friends!

Meg:
Oh...uh, I mean...

Sora:
We'll go have a little talk with Hades. I'd hate for anything to happen

to you on your way to see him.

Meg:
You really want to do that? Well, it looks like you know what you're

doing. I guess I'll take you up on that offer. But...let's keep this whole

chat-with-Hades thing our little secret, okay?

Sora:
Our lips are sealed!

(Sora, Donald, and Goofy enter the Cave of the Dead. They see a cloaked man

running through the cave)

Donald:
The Organization!

Sora:
Yeah.

(They continue through the passage into the Inner Chamber to find the cloaked

man still running)

?????:
Run! Run away!

(He eventually fades away)

Sora:
Okay...?

(Hades is speaking with Pete in Hades's Chamber)

Hades:
Where do they dig these freaks up? Geez, Louise.

Pete:
Oh, they're nuttin' but trouble, the whole lot of 'em. So, uh...what're

you gonna do about Hercules? He's made mince meat outta every fighter you sent

at him. Pretty soon the Underworld's gonna be standing room only. Say, why

don't you just pick somebody already dead and save him the trouble?

(Hades gets annoyed at Pete and slams his fists on the edges of his chair. Pete

covers his head, while Pain and Panic hide behind him. Hades thinks for a

second)

Hades:
Dead... Dead is good! And I know just the warrior.

(Sora, Donald, and Goofy enter the Valley of the Dead. Donald shivers)

Goofy:
I'm scared too, Donald.

Sora:
Hades, come out!

(They walk across the bridge and up the stairs. Pete, Hades, Pain, and Panic

are looking into Hades's giant swirling vortex)

Pete:
By the by, uh... What's down there?

Hades:
Just the Underworld's deepest dungeon. This time I'm bringing out the

mother of all bad guys.

(Pete starts to back away from Hades. Pain and Panic have already hidden behind

a stone pillar)

Pete:
You don't say. Well... Maybe I should go.

(Hades forms a ball of fire in each hand and toss them into the abyss. There's

a large explosion, causing a pillar of smoke to rise out of the hole. Lightning

courses through the red smoke as a figure emerges. Hades laughs)

Hades:
Let's cut to the chase. Here's the deal I'm gonna offer you. I let you

out of the slammer---no strings---you'll be free as a bird.

(Auron listens as he looks over to Pete, who is against the wall near Pain and

Panic. Pete, still afraid and not knowing what else to do, simply waves at

Auron)

Hades:
And all for one little job. Fight Hercules, in the Coliseum...to the

death!

Auron:
This is my story. And you're not part of it.

(Auron raises his sword)

Hades:
Did you forget who you're talking to? I am the Lord of the Dead!

Auron:
No wonder no one wants to die.

Hades:
You are FIRED!

(Hades turns red in a blaze and charges toward Auron, who blocks with his

sword. Sora, Donald, and Goofy run in)

Donald:
Hades!

(Hades gets distracted and his fire turns blue again)

Hades:
You again?

(Auron knocks Hades back)
