Riku sets Pinocchio down on one of the platforms lining the walls as stomach acid
pools on the floor
Sora: Hey, let Pinocchio go, Riku.
He turns to see them. Pinocchio sits, unmoving
Riku: A puppet that’s lost its heart to the Heartless... Maybe it
holds the key to helping Kairi. How about it, Sora? Let’s join forces to save her. We
can do it, together.
He starts walking toward Sora, who takes out the Keyblade
Riku (stopping): What? You’d rather fight me? Over a
puppet that has no heart?
Sora: Heart or no heart, at least he still has a conscience.
Riku: Conscience?
Jiminy Cricket runs over to Pinocchio
Sora: You might not hear it, but right now it’s loud and clear. And
it’s telling me you’re on the wrong side!
Riku: Then you leave me no choice.
Jiminy: Pinocchio! Pinocchio!
Pinocchio (weakly): Jiminy... I’m not gonna make
it.
Suddenly, his nose grows
Pinocchio: Oh! I guess I’m okay!
Jiminy jumps happily. Sora looks over to Donald and Goofy. Riku thinks for a second
before looking up suddenly as the Parasite Cage falls from a hole in the ceiling. Riku
makes a quick exit through a corridor of darkness, leaving them alone with the
Heartless. Pinocchio runs out of the stomach and the Parasite Cage picks itself up on
its arms and swings itself at Sora and company. Donald yells and sends a Thunder spell
at it, while Sora runs up to it and begins striking its body with the Keyblade. The
Parasite Cage begins swinging its arms again, but Goofy slams his shield into them,
causing the Heartless to reel back. The top head falls backwards, causing the cage to
open. It lies there, unconscious, while Sora continues to deal damage to it. It
straightens up and begins swinging its arms again, knocking out Donald. The Heartless
places its arms into the stomach acid, sucking it up through its appendages, and blowing
it out through its mouth. Sora falls in pain Goofy falls unconscious. While the Parasite
Cage continues swinging its arms madly, Sora uses Cure on both Donald and Goofy and the
three of them move in unison. With a few more strikes, it flies backwards, a glowing
heart coming out of its cage- like mouth and floating away. It begins to fall over,
splashing acid everywhere
Donald: Run!
Sora: Riku! Riku, where are you?
