World of Disney

Chapter Twenty: Realm Zone - 1967

Bella fought through foliage in the sweltering jungle atmosphere to find Michelle. She was practically sweating just a little through her shirt with a heavy yellow glow shining from her chest. For minutes she stepped through the jungle, almost stepping in mud at one point. It almost seemed as if she would never find Michelle, until...

Music...High tempo music.

It sounded so good to Bella that she turned her head in the direction it came from, spotting a ruined temple that was Hindu in design. The temple was a short distance away, so she went right after it with great curiosity. Thoughts of finding Michelle were still fresh on her mind, but she could not avoid the music. She even bobbed her head back and forth to its rhythm on the way there.

When she arrived at the temple, she climbed over a crumbled wall, leading her directly through an entranceway to the temple. The moment she walked in, she was met with a welcoming yet surprising sight: her sister, Michelle, dancing with a large collection of monkeys. Draped over her head was a banana peel, which she did not seem to care was on there the entire time she danced and sang with the monkeys. She danced in step with the monkey's orangutan leader, King Louie, singing a tune that was not of the cartoon realm, but more of a real world one.  

"My jungle love, yeah!" Michelle sang.

The monkeys followed with the chant, "Oh-e-oh-e-oh!"

"I think I wanna know ya!"

"Know ya!"

A few niftier dance steps between Michelle and Louie and then the song came to a close; the monkeys wildly applauded from different sections of the ruined temple. Bella even applauded herself. She soon found herself forced to stop as she was grabbed by the back of her jeans and hauled into the air. The monkeys surrounding the temple tossed her one-by-one to King Louie and Michelle, until she was dropped a few feet right in front of them.

A large and wide smile emerged on Michelle's face. She helped her sister to her feet and gave her a huge hug. "My sister! It's so good to see you again!" Both her heart and Bella's glowed dark blue, responding to the great happiness between them.

"It's good to see you, my sister. I just wish I didn't have such a massive wedgie at the moment." Bella uttered, gazing behind her to see her purple underwear grotesquely sticking out of the back of her jeans.

King Louie approached Bella, observing her very closely. "Crazy, man! There are two of you now!"

"Your Highness, this is my dear sister." Michelle introduced.

Louie stood on both of his hands and extended one of his feet out to Bella. "Any 'sister' of the woman-bear is a sister of mine!"

As she shook Louie's foot, Bella whispered to Michelle, "Woman-bear?"

"It's like 'man-cub.' Cute, isn't it?" Michelle answered with a giggle she shared with Bella.
