The guardians of light manage to make it to Equestria in one piece, but unfortunately, they were laying unconscious on a snowy field near the Crystal Empire. The path that led to Equestria was a very powerful gateway and had not been use before till now.
After a few more minutes of being unconscious, they all began to slowly open their eyes and got onto their feet before stretching their arms or bodies after having that bumpy ride.
Sora brushed the snow that was on his left shoulder before asking, “Everyone okay?”
“Yes,” answered Aqua politely, “We’re fine, Sora.”
Riku and Terra began to look around the snowy place while trying to figure where they have landed and to believe they were now in Equestria.
“Where are we?” Riku asked.
“I don’t know,” replied Mickey while looking around, “This doesn’t look like Equestria by the looks of all this snow.”
Donald glared at Kairi while saying, “Have you taken us to a different world, Kairi?”
“What?” Kairi replied in shock, “I-I-It wasn’t me! I didn’t know we were gonna land here!”
“Don’t accuse her like that, Donald!” Sora said as he walked towards Kairi, crosses his arms and gave Donald an unamused looked, “Kairi didn’t do anything to make us land here. It was probably that bumpy ride we had. It must have made the Gummi Ship and the keyblade gliders to go out of control and sent us here instead of somewhere that I know is part of Equestria.”
“Sora, was this the place you awoken when you first appeared in Equestria?” Asked Ventus.
“No,” he answered before looking at him, “The place I ended up in was the field that led to Canterlot where I started to wonder about trying to figure out how to get home, and before I met my friends there.”
“Well,” began Axel, “I suggest we start doing that. Wondering around this snowy place until we find a path that leads to somewhere that is part of Equestria in order to know if we have appeared in the right place or not.”
They all nodded in response.
“Good idea, Axel,” said Kairi, “It won’t even take us long to find one if we all stick together.”
“Yeah,” agreed Sora happily.
“Well, what are we waiting for then? Let’s get going!” Goofy said.
“Yeah!” Added the duck wizard.
But before they could do anything else, they heard a lots rumble sound as the ground began to shake making everyone almost fall on their backs. Just then, another rumble was heard making the ground shake again.
“What was that?!” Roxas asked in shock.
Some of the snow on the mountain began to fall off after another rumble was heard. A final rumble was then heard making the ground shake one last time.
“Whatever it is, it’s getting closer,” said Terra.
Xion suddenly saw something up ahead as she pointed forward and said, “Look.”
The guardians looked forward and saw a big black shadow, within the fog, walking slowly towards them.
“Just what we needed,” said Axel in annoyance, “Another big bad to stop us.”
The dark shadow was getting closer and closer as the figure was as tiny bit bigger as they was. Sora let out a small gasp, he knew what, or who, that figure was.
The figure that was standing a few miles near them, was Queen Chrysalis in her ultimate form. She then let out an angry Changeling roar at them.
“Chrysalis?!” Sora shouted before summoning his keyblade as Donald and Goofy summoned his shield ready to fight her, so did Kairi and Riku, summoning their keyblades.
Riku’s keyblade was designed after a dimple key for a pin tumbler lock, as opposed to the lever tumbler lock key designs of most other Keyblades. The blade is silver, with two parallel grooves running the length of the blade at the center; several circular intents are etched along each edge asymmetrically. The blade juts out and then cuts back in just before it connects to the guard, which is black and blocky. The Keyblade's Keychain is a Hidden Mickey token similar to that of the Kingdom Key, although of a darker hue and with defined separations between the "head" and "ears".
“That’s Chrysalis?!” Asked Donald.
Sora suddenly saw something on Chrysalis’s chest. It was an unversed symbol. Which means, this Chrysalis isn’t the real one, it was an unversed.
“No. That’s not the Chrysalis I remember facing. That’s an unversed!”
“An unversed version of Chrysalis?!” Donald said in shock.
“Are the unversed coping forms of defeated villains now?” Asked Goofy in confusion.
“Well, only one way to find out,” answered Sora, “Once we take care of this one first.”
Suddenly, the Chrysalis Unversed began her first attack. Her horn began to glow dark green and then made a nine beam lines to nine friends of Sora, Kairi and Riku. It then sucked them through the beam as they screamed in terror.
“Donald! Goofy! Ven! Roxas! Xion!” Sora shouted in fear and shock.
“Axel! Aqua!” Shouted Kairi in fear and shock.
“Terra! Mickey!” Riku shouted in fear and shock.
The beam went back in the horn of the Chrysalis Unversed. Underneath the unversed, nine cocoons fell out of her stomach and dangled on Changeling slime strings. And inside those cocoons were Donald, Goofy, Mickey, Ven, Aqua, Terra, Roxas, Xion and Axel. They were now prisoners of the Chrysalis Unversed.
“Oh no!” Kairi was in shock after seeing their friends inside the cocoons and was also worried about what might happen to them next.
But Sora wasn’t let that unversed encase their friends inside cocoons and get away with it.
“Don’t worry,” he said getting ready to fight the Chrysalis Unversed, “We’ll get them out!”
“Right!” Agreed Riku getting ready to fight the unversed followed by Kairi after that.
Sora jumped very high in the air and began to smack the unversed’s head eight times with his keyblade before performing a finishing smack. “This is it!” After that final smack, the Chrysalis Unversed moves back a bit while roaring in pain.
She then roared in anger before making another dark green beam towards them. But the three were too smart for the unversed and dodged her attack either jumped back or rolled to the other side.
“You’re done!” Shouted Riku while shooting five dark balls to the unversed as they hit her legs.
Sora began to use his sonic speed attack and sped through the unversed’s body six times before performing a finishing speed attack. “It’s over!”
“Go!” Kairi blasted a Pearl spell at the stomach of the Chrysalis Unversed. Then, as the unversed roared in pain again, the slime holding the cocoon with Ven inside began to break and it fell to the ground while the Chrysalis Unversed began to fall down in pain. The cocoons breaking free was her weakness.
Kairi saw this and quickly said, “Sora! Riku! The cocoons underneath her! Those must be her weakness. If we can break them apart, we can defeat her and save our friends all together.”
Sora and Riku looked underneath the unversed and saw the cocoon with Ven inside was now on the ground before looking at the Chrysalis Unversed and saw she was struggling to continue fighting.
The two looked at each other and nodded.
“Alright,” Said Sora, “Let’s do this!”
Sora and Riku’s keyblades disappeared and stood close to each other. Sora placed his left hand while Riku placed his right hand as a light was shone on their hands. Then, two keyblade halves spun in the air before joining together, it was the Combined Keyblade.
The Combined Keyblade consists of two Keyblades that can merge into one single Keyblade.
Sora's Keyblade half consists of a simple, dark hilt with blue strips that form X's all over. The guard is incomplete, with a golden color scheme on the incomplete end and an initially teal scheme for the completed end, gradually becoming green. This half of the guard merges into the blade, which is an enormous, golden filigree reminiscent of the Ultima Weapon’s. The blade forms one half of a heart at the tip. The teeth of the weapon consists of a stained-glass window pattern, bearing blue, teal, yellow, magenta, and orange colors. The Keychain consists of golden links, with the charm a silver heart with golden angelic wings that gradually become teal.
Riku's Keyblade half bears a similar style to Sora's, but has a periwinkle scheme for the incomplete side of the guard and a pink scheme for the completed side, gradually becoming periwinkle. The blade initially has a teal color scheme that merges into black, with the teeth bearing blue, teal, and violet colors. The Keychain's links are silver, and the charm has a black demonic wing that merges into magenta.
The complete Keyblade lacks the incomplete sides of the guards. At the center of the merged blades is a golden rod that is grey at the base with a Hidden Mickey, and merges with the hearts at the tip. A the very top is a golden crown resembling the one on Sora's necklace. The Keychain is a green string with a paopu fruit as the charm.
The Combined Keyblade slowly moved down to where Sora and Riku grabbed the two holders of the giant key as a big beam of light shone on the key. The two friends used all their strength to cut the slimes underneath the unversed and made the rest of the cocoons fall to the ground.
The Chrysalis Unversed began to feel more weaker. She was unable to fight anymore. The unversed slowly fell to the ground on the right as it magically disappeared in purple smoke before all the cocoons began to snap open.
The nine guardians slowly raised from their broken cocoons. Sora, Kairi and Riku ran towards them hoping that they’re not hurt after being encased in cocoons.
“You guys okay?” Asked Riku while helping the king up.
“Yeah, I think so,” answered Mickey before brushing the remaining slime on his right ear.
“Eww, gross!” Donald said angrily while cleaning himself up from the slime, “I never liked green slimy goo!”
“Aw, come on, Donald,” said Goofy trying to cheer his duck friend up, “Aren’t you happy that we’re all free from the prison cocoons?”
“Well, Uh, I guess so,” he answered before growing a smile on his face once more.
“Then you have nothing to hate about now that you’re free from your cocoon.” Goofy let out a chuckle before Donald let out a chuckle as well.
When Axel brushed the last remaining slime on his coat, he saw Kairi running towards him and hugged him tightly. She was happy he was released from the cocoon he was in.
“Axel! Are you okay?! I was so worried about you when you were inside that horrible cocoon!”
“Huh?” Axel just decided to go with it and hugged Kairi back while saying, “Yeah, don’t worry. I’m fine.”
Kairi suddenly realise she was hugging Axel tightly. “Oh. Sorry.” The two then let go of the hug as Axel just smiled at her.
“It’s okay. I’m still perfectly fine.”
Kairi smiled back at Axel before seeing their other friends walking towards them.
“Well now that’s over and done with, let’s continue our journey before more unversed show up,” said Goofy.
“Right,” agreed Terra, “And try to get out of this snow field before it gets too cold for us to handle.”
They all gave Terra a nod in agreement before walking straight forwards to try to find any locations that are in Equestria and can tell them that they’re in the right world they needed to go.
Inside a area that nocreature has ever gone or even know about, was a white room in a batch of dark light and had a couple of grey stands on each sides of the walls.
And in that room, was a light purple pony with dark blue mane, that goes down to his right eye, and tail, dark red eyes and was wearing a coat that looks like the coat the Nobodies wore but in red.
He had his hoof on his chin like he was thinking about something. Just then, he saw a dark corridor appear near him as another red coat creature appeared. This creature was a brown hairy yak that looks a lot like Prince Rutherford but the hair isn’t covering his eyes, his horns were grey and his eyes were also dark red but his eyes were closed at the moment.
The red coat pony shook his head before looking at the red coat yak again and said, “Don’t I even get a hello, Xisnom?”
Xisnom opened his eyes before both him and the red coat pony saw another dark corridor appeared a few miles near them.
This time, the creature to appear from the corridor was a female dark green dragon who was also wearing a red coat. Her horns were dark red, the spike on her head was black and her eyes were dark red too.
She walked towards the two before saying, “What is going on here, Xodiac? I want an explanation.”
“Nice to see you too, Xocarl,” Xodiac said in annoyance before placing a hoof on his forehead. “It’s such a shame. The Unversedation should have been the rope that can bound us together.”
This annoyed Xocarl. “You were only made five days ago! How dare you insult...!”
“Let it go, Xocarl,” Xisnom stopped the dragon before it went out of control. Normally he would have spoken like any other yak would speak, but thanks to the red coat, he can speak like any creature can speak.
Xocarl was about to saying something but then glared away knowing it won’t go nowhere for what could happen next.
Xisnom gave Xocarl an cross stare before turning to Xodiac.
“Xodiac, tell us. What did you detect?”
Xodiac placed a hoof on his chin once more before answering, “Visitors. I picked up a couple of scents, in the snow field of the Crystal Empire. One of them was, Chrysalis...”
“Don’t be stupid, the Queen is gone,” Xocarl interrupted, “She can’t return from the world she was banish to.”
“If you would let me finish,” went on Xodiac, “The scent belonged not to the real Chrysalis, but to a fake double of her. But I truly cannot say much about her since the double is no more. Our other visitors saw to that.”
“And who are they?” Xisnom asked.
Xodiac had his hoof on his chin for the third time before answering, “I don’t know for sure. But one of the scents, was very similar to that, of the late Master Xehanort.”
“And yet, not exactly the same, was it?” Asked Xocarl.
Xodiac gave the dragon a nod in response. Xocarl placed a claw on her chin while saying, “This truly piques my curiosity.” She then grew a small grin on her face.
“Now...what to do?” Asked the purple pony.
Xisnom remained silenced for eight seconds before replying, “We wait...see what develops.”
