(The three salute her. The Queen gasps)

Minnie:
I forgot to warn everyone else in the castle about the danger! We must

be sure they're hidden somewhere safe!

Sora:
Okay, we'll go tell them!

Donald:
The whole castle!?

Goofy:
We just gotta split up, Donald.

Sora:
I'll make sure that everyone knows what's going on.

Donald:
No, Sora, you'll just get lost!

Sora:
Okay. Then I'll stay with the Queen.

(Minnie giggles)

Donald:
Good.

Goofy:
All righty then, see ya later!

(Donald and Goofy leave the Library)

Sora:
Um, the audience chamber, right, ma'am?

Minnie:
Yes, Sora. Let's be on our way.

(They hurry back into the colonnade and reach the immense doors to the audience

chamber, which are magically locked)

Minnie:
Just one moment.

(Minnie holds up her hand)

Minnie:
As soon as the trouble started, I made sure to seal this room.

(The magical barrier breaks apart and the room is unlocked. A small door

appears through the larger one)

Minnie:
Now then...shall we?

(They enter the large audience chamber, which is completely empty, until a

horde of Bolt Tower Heartless float down from the ceiling)

Minnie:
Not here, too!

Sora:
I got 'em.

(They race across the chamber, dodging the Heartless, reaching the throne. The

Heartless are relentless)

Sora:
Come on, gimme a break!

(Minnie hurriedly reaches beneath the arm of the throne and presses a button.

There is a loud rumbling and the throne starts to move)

Sora:
Huh?

(The throne recedes with a flash of light and the Heartless are gone. The floor

contains a set of stairs to a lower room)

Sora:
Whoa...

Minnie:
The room below is called the 'Hall of the Cornerstone.' Our castle has

always been safe from worlds that are evil...thanks to the Cornerstone of Light

which we keep down there.

Sora:
The Cornerstone...of light?

(Sora follows the Queen down into the Hall of the Cornerstone and sees the

unbelievable mass of thorns surrounding the walls. A giant ball of swirling

light stands in the middle of the room)

Minnie:
This is the castle's cherished Cornerstone. But look. The thorns...

They must be the work of someone very evil. I wonder what this could mean...

(A burst of green flames appears before the Queen and an image of Maleficent

appears)

Donald:
Maleficent!

Sora:
No way!

Maleficent:
Well, well, well. What have we here...? If it isn't the wretched

Keyblade holder, and his pitiful lackeys!

Donald:
What!? Now you're gonna deal with me!

(Donald leaps to attack but flies right through her)

Maleficent:
All in good time. I promise you'll be able to partake of my

vengeance. But you must be patient.

Minnie:
Just what are you doing here, Maleficent!?

Maleficent:
Ah, Queen Minnie. Radiant, as always.

(Maleficent bows)

Maleficent:
I'm here on a property venture. I want this castle for my own.

However, it's a bit too "bright" for what I have in mind. I suppose I'll just

have to fill every room with my personal touch of darkness.

(She touches the Cornerstone of Light, but it rejects her hand)

Minnie:
You'd better stop right now if you know what's good for you!

Maleficent:
Ooh, how frightening. Very well. I'll stop... Just as soon as the

castle belongs to me!

(She disappears and cackles evilly)

Sora:
What a hag.

Minnie:
Nothing like this has ever happened before. I looked through all the

records in the library, but I couldn't find a single clue.

Goofy:
Ohhh! We should go ask somebody who knows lotsa stuff that ain't in any

book!

Donald:
Merlin the Wizard!

Minnie:
Yes! That's perfect! Merlin just might know something about this mess.

Let's ask his advice!

Goofy:
We saw him in Hollow Bastion, right?

Sora:
Yeah. Let's go!

(They fly to Hollow Bastion and enter Merlin's House)

Sora:
Anybody home?

Donald:
Merlin!

Goofy:
The castle's in danger!

(Merlin appears behind them)

Merlin:
What is all that racket? Ho-ho! I thought---oh, it's you! It looks like

you've learned a bit since the last time I saw you.

Sora:
Really!?

Donald:
Wait a minute! Let's talk about the problem! It's Maleficent! She's

back!

Merlin:
Where? Inside the castle!?

Goofy:
Yep! And Heartless, too.

Merlin:
Oh, dear...

Donald:
Maleficent wants to take over the whole castle...

(As Donald is talking, Merlin transports them all to the Hall of the

Cornerstone, where Minnie is waiting)

Donald:
There's Heartless in every part of the castle! The Queen is in danger!

What!?

(Donald notices he's back in Disney Castle)

Merlin:
Perhaps, I'd better just see for myself.

(Merlin walks over to Minnie and the Cornerstone of Light)

Merlin:
Mm-hmm...interesting...

Minnie:
What's happening, Merlin?

Merlin:
This is not good. In fact, I'm afraid, it's quite serious.

(The wizard clears his throat. He waves his arms and a door appears)

Sora:
What's that?

Merlin:
My boy, that is a gateway to a special world. Someone in that world is

responsible for what's going on in this castle. Of that, I'm certain.

Donald:
Oh boy!

Goofy:
We knew we could count on you, Merlin!

Sora:
Then we should go get him!

(Sora walks over to the door and places his hand on the handles)

Merlin:
Wait a moment! The perpetrators must be stopped, of course. But there's

something else to do first. Somewhere in that world, there should be another

door that's identical to this one. I believe our enemies are utilizing that

door. As long as it remains open, the castle will be in grave danger. Listen

carefully, Sora. You must find that door. And when you do---lock it with your

Keyblade.

Sora:
Got it.

Donald:
You can count on us!

Merlin:
Now, one more thing. You're heading into a very special world. While

you're there, the nature of that world may tempt you to do something dark. You

must resist that temptation at all costs!

Sora:
What do you mean?

Merlin:
You'll know soon enough. I have faith in you, my lads!

(Sora opens the door after a small struggle and walks in. On the other side,

the door jumps around making several honks and whistles, before spitting the

three out onto the ground. Goofy shakes his head)

Goofy:
Hey, look! There's the Cornerstone of Light!

(Sora walks over to it)

Sora:
What's going on? Everything's black and white.

Donald:
Hey, this is kinda like...um...uh...

Goofy:
Deja vu?

Donald:
Yeah, that's it!

Sora:
Really? Have you been here before?

(Captain Pete walks behind Sora in the direction of the Pier, but stops when he

sees the three)

Captain Pete:
Hey you! Seen any bad guys around here?

(Sora, Donald, and Goofy all point to Captain Pete)

Captain Pete:
Why I oughta... Bah! I don't have time to waste on punks like

you! So, I guess I'll go easy on ya!

(He walks off to the Pier)

Sora:
Well, there's our villain.

(Donald and Goofy nod and they enter the Pier. Captain Pete is standing on the

dock)

Captain Pete:
What's with you squirts? You got some kinda bone to pick with me?

Sora:
More than one!

Captain Pete:
Them's fighting words!

(They hear a boat whistle)

Captain Pete:
Huh?

(He starts walking toward Cornerstone Hill, when Sora, Donald, and Goofy block

his way)
