Joy And Sadness

"Come on!" Donald called to Bloom and the others as he, Ryan, Goofy, Ariel, Jake, Zim, Genie, and Piglet walked across the rope bridge to the cottage. Goofy was covering Bloom's eyes.

"Guys, why can't you tell me what this all about?" Bloom curiously asked.

"Awhuck, you'll see! It's a surprise." Goofy responded with a chuckle. After they entered the cottage, Jake closed the door and Goofy uncovered her eyes.

"TA-DAH!" Zim exclaimed when they were all the way in the cave, pointing ahead, and the others smiled as Bloom looked on in surprise, stopping short when she saw what was in the center of the cottage. There, tilted to one side, was the statue of Sky! "Prince Sky's statue!" Bloom exclaimed in surprise. "But where- when- how did you get it?"

"Oh, you guys are the best!" she exclaimed, hugging Ariel, giving Ryan, Goofy, Jake, and Zim a kiss on the cheek, then petting Piglet on the head. She scooped up Donald and twirled around with the duck in her arms, and finally hugged Genie.

"It looks just like him! It even has his eyes!" she gasped, as she flew around the statue. If only it really were him, she thought. "Why, Sky, you want me to run away with you?" she asked dreamily with a giggle. "This is all so sudden!"

She whirled around with happiness. The room seemed to spin. She saw the shelves, the window, the ceiling, her friends, the entrance, Xem, and Obi-Wan Kenobi-Obi-Wan Kenobi?

"Master Kenobi!" Bloom yelped when she saw a shadowed Obi-Wan at the entrance with an intent look on his face. Xem stood right behind, looking down at the ground in guilt. Ryan and the gang hid behind a large chest.

The Jedi Master stepped out of the entrance and into the cottage. In the uneven light, his face was etched in shadows.

"I consider myself a very reasonable Jedi... I set certain RULES; and I expect them to be obeyed; not broken!" Obi-Wan said angrily.

Bloom swallowed hard, and tried to explain. "But, Master, I-"

"Is it true that you rescued a outsider...a human - from drowning?" he demanded.

"Master, I had to!" Bloom exclaimed.

"Contact between our world and the mortal realm is strictly forbidden, Bloom, you know that. Everyone knows that!"

"He would have died!" Bloom protested.

"Bah!" Obi-Wan scoffed waving his hand. "One less human to worry about!"

"You can't treat me like a child," Bloom said heatedly.

"Bloom, think about what happened to your parents!" Obi-Wan shouted. He began to sing:

Obi-Wan: This is where you belong!

"You don't understand-" Bloom protested.

Obi-Wan: For once, just listen will you?

That savage brute would kill you in the world out there!

"He's not a barbarian!" Bloom shouted.

Obi-Wan: Don't try that same old song,

I'll have you grounded til next year!

Am I clear! Don't go near that world out there!

"You don't even know him!" Bloom shouted.

"Know him? I don't have to know him!" Obi-Wan roared. "They're all the same; heartless monsters who are only compelled by greed, and will kill and destroy anything that's not like them-"

That did it for Bloom, who couldn't hold it in anymore. "Master, I love him!" she shouted with tears in her eyes. Upon realizing what she said, Bloom gasped and covered her mouth. Xem and the others gasped as well. Obi-Wan looked stunned.

"No..." he gasped. His shock turned to anger. He ignited his lightsaber and turned to Xem. The tiger screamed in terror and flattened himself against the wall, trying not to get killed. "I leave her in your care and this is what happens?" Obi-Wan shouted.

"Please, Master! Have mercy!" Xem begged, sobbing hysterically as he got on his knees and hugging Obi-Wan's knees. The Jedi Master kicked the tiger away, who whimpered and curled up, shaking terribly.

"It isn't his fault!" Ryan shouted, stepping out. Obi-Wan turned off his lightsaber and turned to Ryan.

"And you, Ryan! You knew all along, too?" the Jedi demanded.

"Yes, Master." Ryan gulped.

"Why did you not tell me this then?"

"I...I...I'm sorry, Master Obi-Wan." Ryan said slowly. The jedi master turned back to Bloom.

"And, as for you, have you lost all sense? He's a human; you're an immortal!" Obi-Wan shouted.

"It doesn't matter! I don't care!" Bloom protested.

"So help me, Bloom, I will get through to you, no matter what!" Obi-Wan threatened. Bloom's friends couldn't take anymore of this. They ran from their hiding places.

"Why you pompous, arrogant, cold-hearted wind bag! " Genie shouted.

"WHAT WAS THAT?" Obi-Wan shouted angrily. Xem yelped.

"Yo, you heard him, you piece of Bantha fodder!" Jake shouted.

"You're not a nice person!" Piglet said timidly.

"Yeah! You only care about yourself, you emotionless pig!" Donald added.

"You old jerk!" Goofy shouted.

"You're ten times worse than my daddy!" Ariel added.

"You have no heart at all, Obi-Wan!" Zim sneered. Xem looked nervous and Obi-Wan was furious.

"THAT'S IT! You pushed me too far! Xemnas and you seven are BANISHED from Fantasia until the end of your days!" Obi-Wan shouted. Bloom and her friends gasped.

"Exile?" Xem whimpered. "No! NO! NOOOOOO! IT CAN'T BE TRUE!" Xem sobbed hysterically.

"And, Xemnas, if you are not gone by sunset, you will be sent to the electric chair!" Obi-Wan shouted. Xem whimpered and hid behind Ryan and the others.

"That's not fair!" Bloom shouted. Obi-Wan resumed singing:

Obi-Wan: I'm still the King here!

My word is law!

Obi-Wan grabbed a telescope off one shelf and glared at it with disgust, before throwing it to the ground and stepping on it, breaking the item.

This filth you bring here,

Is the final straw!

And push, my student, has come to shove!

I'll make you obey till you do what I say!

I don't care, come what may, but I'll keep you away

from that cruel, harsh, cold, vile world OUT THERE!

Obi-Wan ignited his lighsaber. Xem and the others gasped and ran for cover. Despite Bloom's pleas, Obi-Wan destroyed every artifact with his lightsaber. He then set his sights on the statue. He prepared a mighty force burst. "MASTER OBI-WAN, NO!" Bloom shouted. The statue was destroyed in a mighty explosion caused by the force.

Obi-Wan then introduced Bloom and her friends to Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker! Anakin was Obi-Wan's best friend! Bloom and her friends were very happy to meet Anakin!

After the death of Second Lieutenant Hotshot in the battle with Granga on Corneria, Major Fox McCloud recovered Hotshot's body and took it back to the T.C.S. Tiger's Claw so that Hotshot could be given a space funeral! 3 hours later, a funeral was held for Hotshot! Hotshot's body was in a casket! Colonel Peter Halcyon said "We are gathered here to pay tribute to one of our own: Second Lieutenant Hotshot! It is always sad to lose a pilot, but it is especially difficult when he is as young as Hotshot! He died without even a chance to prove himself!" The honor guard commander said "Company, attention!!!" Fox and the others saluted! The honor guard commander said "Prepare arms!!!" The honor guard prepared to fire! Colonel Halcyon saluted and said "Farewell, Hotshot! You'll be missed!" The honor guard commander said "Fire!" The honor guard fired their rifles! The honor guard commander said "Fire!" The honor guard fired their rifles! Hotshot's casket was launched into space! The honor guard commander said "Fire!" The honor guard fired their rifles!
