Kyomi rolled over in her bed and slowly opened her eyes to see the white light of the black clock shining dimly into her eyes. It took her a moment to realize that it was pass ten o'clock. Kyomi quickly sat up only to bury her head in her hands and groan.
"What happened?" She murmured. "I'm so tired."
She paused and tried to gather her thoughts. Cinderella's Castle, the Wishing Well, SpectroMagic and the SpectroMen... She grabbed her head again. It all seemed like a vivid dream.
"Kyomi? Kyomi?"
She slowly looked up to see a young man with dirty blond hair and two golden eyes looking back into hers. She yelped which caused him to reel backwards.
"What in the world?"
"Kyomi, it's me!" He said trying to calm her down but he found himself ducking from the two pillows Kyomi threw his way.
"I don't know who you are or how you got into my room! But you need to get out of here! NOW!!"
The pillows continued to cascade on Abner until he tripped over a chair and disappeared in a cloud of smoke. This startled Kyomi as she rushed over to see happened. As the smoke cleared, a tiny elf about the size of Jiminy Cricket appeared with wild green hair. His solid light blue jumpsuit shimmer in the swirl of light along with his silver trimmings and knee high boots. A colorful breastplate rest on his chest and a short white cape hanging behind him. Kyomi's eyes widened in astonishement.
"Abner?" Kyomi paused then murmured under her breath. "So, that wasn't a dream?"
"It was real. And you helped me restore SpectroMagic to the Magic Kingdom." He said pulling himself up as he shook his head. "You have quite an arm too."
I did that? Kyomi scooped Abner into her hands and laid him on her bed. This... how is this possible?
"Why am I so tired? I feel like all my strength has left me."
"The Well must've drawn on your wish. You used up a vast amount of energy." Abner said. "Boy, it wasn't an easy feat getting you back to your room without causing suspicion. But now onto the important matter at hand. Your real purpose for coming here was not simply about the Ball."
"I had a feeling." Kyomi replied. "Peter Pan told me that there is a battle, a real battle, of good and evil happening here and that the potential darkness could spread to the entire world? He also mentioned that the magic here is unbalanced. And the Great Sorcerer created a seal to lock the Evil away but the seal has been weakened."
"Yes, it has been weakened and we wielders of light magic have been unable to properly fix it." The elf said. "However, the Great Sorcerer did have a back up just in case the seal would break. There are seven keys hidden throughout the kingdoms and they possess great magic endowed by the Sorcerer himself. When brought together, it will form the key that will unlock the Blue Fairy."
Kyomi reached into her bag and placed the silver key in her lap.
"You mean this?"
"This key is the first step in finding the others." He paused. "Yet it's emitting strange energy. Where did it lead you?"
"Down into the catacombs of the castle. I thought that only existed in Tokyo Disneyland."
Kyomi saw a terrifying chill come over him.
"Like Peter said, the magic here has been unbalanced but I believe it will lead us to the others. You must do this in order to break the curse upon us."
Kyomi looked down at the key then back at the tiny SpectroMan.
"What exactly is this curse?" She asked. "What will happen to you?"
