Disney's Wondrous Secrets

Bad Pete

A promise was a big thing to make during such a confusing and scary time. From where they used to be, in the modern world, in a theme park, they were now teleported to a whole new place, a entirely different one from before like in the blink of an eye. It was a natural thing to believe that all this was some sort of dream or nightmare, but the feelings made it feel so real. There was a reality in front of her eyes and someone was with her, talking to her. All the choices she had were dashed and she just had to trust. She had to, for her parents, for Mickey... and all she needed was an understanding for all this.

Sarah had her bag held before her instead of behind her. The thing seemed to be more of a problem now, that it was so big and loud that she felt the need to ditch it for something else. Sarah was trying to be as quiet as she could as she tried to keep track of what Woody was doing. By his guide, she followed him and mimicked his every move. When he hid against a tree, so did she. She sat in the grass, catching her breath as he was watching out for anyone alike with that stranger from before.

"Woody? Do you know who that was, who was following us?"

"Not really... but you said you smelled smoke." he said, still overlooking his shoulder.

At his last statement though, he looked at her with worry. She nodded.

"Yeah, i-it was smoke."

He seemed to nod, knowingly.

"Okay..." he said, thoughtfully.

When he looked back out, he squinted when he thought he saw something down the slope. Was it a camp? Sarah was able to spot something too. It was a corner to a round end of a tent tarp, with a striped red and blue pattern and then white. It looked very out of place, so near such a dangerous place. Right from the get go, this was not to be trusted.

"Looks like a circus..." Sarah mumbled to herself.

"Weird spot for a circus, don't ya think? I know what. We'll just go around." Woody prodded a bit and continued to go.

"B-but, what if — N-never mind..." she almost went to interject, but doubted herself.

"That smoke you smelled might have come from a cigar." he mentioned as he urged her to stay low and kept moving onward.

"It was really strong."

"There's only one who smokes a cigar...and I heard the footsteps. It sounded like a wooden leg or something."

"S-so did I."

The way was rocky and the road was uneven, yet it was deemed wiser to stay off it for now because there were voices here and there, which bewildered them both. It wasn't sure if it was the whistles of the trees or they were being watched. There is a possibility that the Doorway may have been botched by someone, with magical intellect, of course. Maleficent's forceful plan was obviously on the move and they were in a claimed zone. If Woody could remember correctly, the Magic Kingdom was a splendid and beautiful place where towns and cities were prosperous and safe, the forests were safe and sheltering to all. Everyone with kindness in their hearts were fully welcome. Sadly, there were those who despised such order whilst others had a certain vengeance in mind for certain individuals. Be it jealousy, hatred... it was all the same level of darkness that was the key thing injuring and taking that peace away. Even children were not safe. Bonnie, his imaginative young owner, who was only 4 years old, was taken. He got that right. She was taken. By a shadow. Woody and his friends, all of the bedroom, loved Bonnie with all of their hearts and thinking about the sweet girl kept breaking his heart over and over. The mere thought got Sarah's attention when the poor cowboy began to look really crushed.
