At Cary castle.

It's been a few hours since returning to the castle but after a good rest Cary woke up and head to the throne room. But upon arriving Cary eye raised at the scene before him: (V P) Luna and Rapunzel are chasing after Discord, who's laughing up an storm, with frying pans.

Cary: "Um what?" He ask until he heard foot steps causing him to look to see Oswald who's holding an cup of coffee walking unt he stand beside him.

Oswald: "they been at this for the pass hour due to Discord messing around the kitchen" he said then Jumba walk up to them while holding his own coffee

Cary: "let's me guess breakfast?" He ask as Jumba stand beside them.

Jumba: "yup also Gnarl recovery is slow process so any information will have to wait" he said as Pharynx, who's been appoint General, walk towards them while holding two cups of coffee.

Cary: "I doubt there's a lot since I have an gut feeling that he lost a lot" he said as Pharynx gave him the other cup which he accepted and drink the coffee.

Pharynx: "What's a weird growing empire you are building" he said which Cary look at him.

Cary: "Weird? Yes" he said then look at the scene.

"Empire? No but an growing family and gathering friends? Most definitely" he said which the three thought and accept his logic then he send a message for everyone to gather at the throne.

An hour later.

Once the chase ended and everyone gather in front of the throne. Cary then sat on the throne only to look at everyone with a serious glare.

Cary: "thank you all for gathering here everyone" he said.

Celestia: "Can you explain why you called us here?" She asked.

Cary: "I been thinking about how there's two types of keyblade wielders: dark and light. So I thought why don't we created an third keyblade faction" he said surprising everyone.

Oswald: "Are you sure? That might draw us attention from unwanted attention" he said.

Cary: "yes and sure we might draw attention but it better to have keyblade wielders of our own in case we face either groups" he said which everyone thought then agree with his logic.

Sora: "He's right as so far there's only three keyblade wielders here: Cary, myself, and Sunset but who knows. Maybe there others keyblade wielders that are among us" she said summoning her keyblade.

Sunset: "She's right about that but that just an theory" she said summoning her keyblade too.

An: ... Okay I just realized that I accidentally made two pun references.

Suddenly the Heart start to glow gaining everyone attention as it show an temple surrounding by an familiar forest.

Oswald: "Sir, that temple isn't far from here but where it at is the dangerous forest called Evernight which is full of corruption" he said which Discord thought for a second until he spoke.

Discord: "I believe I know a safe way of getting to that temple but I can only take four people" he said surprising everyone.

Cary: "You sure that you can do it?" He ask which Discord just smirk.

Discord: "Yes and the best part is that you're not effective so you can travel with me thus I can still take four" he said.

An: the group that is heading out with Discord will be Cary, Sora, Kairi, Sunset, and Sci Twi.

Once the team are set and ready, Discord snap his fingers thus the six are teleported in front of the forest entrance where Discord then guide them.

Cary: "I guess you figure out what happened to my father" he said which Discord sigh sadly.

Discord: "I figured it out after hearing what Bloodfang say. Still it's sad knowing that your father is gone, he was a good friend to hangout. Heck even when he had an empire to run, he still had time for his friends" he said.

Sora then ask how Discord met Cary father which Discord show an flashback where an young Discord were figuring out his powers which lead to an portal opening that Cary father fall out from. After an short introduction and an explanation Cary father decided to have Discord as an ally. Upon Cary birth, Discord became an uncle figure to Cary.

Discord: "Thus why you can handle weirdness easily" he said surprising them at this information.

Sora: "That explain how Cary is sane most of the time during the Queen of hearts court" she said gaining Discord attention.

Discord: "Ah I see you went to a Wonderland" he said gaining their attention.

Sunset: "A Wonderland?" She ask which Discord chuckle softly.

Discord: "there's alternative worlds to the original" he said causing Cary eyes to widen in realization.

Cary: "Discord, if what you saying are true" he said gaining everyone attention.

"Then the enemy we are facing have a endless supplies of both armies and resources" he said shocking everyone as they realize what Cary is saying.

Discord: "I never thought about that" he said.

Sci Twi: "If that true then we need our own endless supplies" she said which Cary nod in agreement.

Cary: "For now we focus on getting to that temple" he said then they continue walking towards the temple. Unaware that they are being followed.

A few minutes later.

After following Discord for what felt like hours, they finally arrived at the temple. But before they could enter shadows suddenly appear and swirl in front of them. Thus Cary, Sunset and Sora summon their keyblades only for the shadows to vanish but in their place is a skeleton knight.

Discord immediately sense the skeleton knight dark aura which he look at Cary and the others then spoke with a serious tone.

Discord: "Be careful as that skeleton knight is reeks with darkness" he said which Cary and the four ladies nod.

Suddenly the skeleton knight roar then darkness cover all exits but once the exits are block it charge at Sora yet Cary block the attack thus he knock back slightly.

Cary: "Dang, okay Sora you focus on support and Sunset you focus on range" he said which both ladies nod then does as Cary ask.

Sora: "Cheer!" She said casting the ability which boost both Cary and Sunset.

Sunset: "Firaga!" She said casting the fire spell at the skeleton knight which took a small bit of damage yet it look at Sunset.

Cary: "Hey focus on me! Hah!" He said charging thus gaining the skeleton knight attention and block Cary slash but it's stumble a bit yet it wasn't enough to beat it.

Meanwhile.

Watching the three keyblade wielders fight the Skeleton knight is the same figure that was following them.

???: "Mm their teamwork is decent but let's see if Cary is worthy to lead the Keepers" the mysterious figure thought then continue to watch the battle.

A few minutes later.

It was a tough battle but now the Skeleton knight is at one HP however instead of ending the boss life Cary decided to spare.

Cary: "Sora. Why don't you do your special spell that you done on the Skeleton knight" he said which Sora did.

Sora: "Dark Reject!" She said stabbing the Skeleton knight at the heart which cause a bright light to cover the area.

After a few seconds.

Once the light vanish everyone then open their eyes only to see a completely different temple.

However when they look at the skeleton knight they are surprised to see that standing there is an human knight.

HK: "Thank you" he said with a smile then vanish leaving his armor only for it to turn to dust.

Discord: "I admit that quite different when ending an boss" he said completely surprise at this.

???: "Perhaps to you but to others that was familiar" a male voice spoke causing everyone to look ahead to see an cloaked figure that is standing in front of the temple entrance.

Cary: "You know who that skeleton knight was" he ask which the mysterious man just nod.

???: "Correct for he was an old friend that was corrupt by darkness" he said summoning an keyblade which surprised them.

Sora: "You're an keyblade wielder!?" She ask with excitement in her eyes which the mysterious man chuckle but then he kneel before the remains.

???: "Mayþúr rest inn eternal peace bróðir" he said.

Translate: May you rest in eternal peace brother.

The mysterious man then stood up while putting his keyblade away and walk towards the temple.

???: "Follow me inside where I can explain everything" he said entering the temple.

A few seconds later.

The group then follow the mysterious man but upon entering they are surprised at how large the entrance temple chamber.

They then notice that the mysterious man have finish setting up a table and chairs.

???: "Please have a seat" he said as he point to the other chairs which they all sit down.

Cary: "Now then may we know your name?" He ask which the mysterious man just chuckle.

Crick: "I go by many names but you can call me Crick" he said.

Sora: "So how is it that you're an keyblade wielder!?" She ask with excitement in her tone.

Crick: "I'm not an keyblade wielder but I'm an keyblade master" he said surprising them at this new information.

Sunset: "Does that mean you gonna be teaching us how to fully master our keyblades?" She ask.

Crick: "Indeed but I'm also gonna help those that haven't unlocked their keyblades yet" he said looking at Kairi and Sci Twi which surprised everyone.

Sci Twi: "What? But I was born in a normal world" she said.

Crick: "Correct but also wrong" he said confusing them.

"Her world used to had magic until that same magic were long forgotten yet ain't fully gone" he said surprising them.

Discord: "Basically their genes have magic essences but that world had long forgotten about magic to restart those essences" he said.

Crick: "Correct but now that gene is close to waking due to exposure to both keyblade and magic" he said then look at Kairi.

"Now you I can tell you had been in contact with an keyblade master" he said surprising them.

Kairi: "What? But I can't remember anything" she said which Crick raise his eyebrow.

Crick: "mm sounds like your mind must had hidden those memories due to trauma from your past. I'm afraid you have to discover those memories on your own since I'm not familiar with that" he said which Kairi sigh.

Cary: "maybe I can help her in the future" he thought.

Discord: "How do both ladies unlock their keyblades?" He ask.

Crick: "Both girls must face their darkness in the Chamber of the Flow" he said surprising them.

Sunset: "You mean both Sci Twi and Kairi must face their dark selves in order for them to unlock their true powers?" She said which Crick nod.

Crick: "Yes. For Sci Twi, her heart is still recovering from the darkness that effects her. For Kairi, her heart may have pure light but she must fight against the darkness that surrounds her body" he said surprising them.

Kairi: "What?" She ask confused but also a bit scared.

Sci Twi: "Is that even possible?" She ask with fear in her voice.

Crick: "I won't force you two but think about it before deciding" he said then look at Cary, Sora, and Sunset.

"Now for you three. I can only choose one of you to be called keyblade master" he said surprising them.

Sora: "Aww I don't like that" she said with a pout.

Sunset: "How do you become an keyblade master?" She ask.

Crick: "By passing the Mark of Mastery" he said pulling his sleeve to show an tattoo on his shoulder.

An: Cliffhanger everyone!
