Save the Datascape and go to Castle Oblivion

Sora and Ryan are back in Hollow Bastion's Grand Hall)

Goofy: Sora! Ryan! Gawrsh, you made it back!

Donald: Yay! You're here!

Mickey: Welcome back, Sora, Ryan. Good, you look like you're okay.

Ryan: Mickey! It's good to be here! You guys, listen. You'd never believe the stuff we saw!

Mickey: Actually, we saw it all. You got rid of the last of the bugs from the datascape. We really owe ya!

Sora: Yep. Happy I could help. Oh, hey! Riku! Is Riku all right?

Ryan: And my brother?

(Riku and Cody walks up the stairs to the stage and joins them)

Riku: We're just fine. Sorry to put you through all that.

Sora: Riku!

Ryan: Cody!

Riku: Looks like we managed to keep that promise.

Sora: Yeah!

Ryan: I wish we had some time to sit around and catch up, but these guys need to hurry. Go there.

(Riku and Cody opens a gateway)

Riku: As promised, that's your road home to the real world where everyone's waiting for you.

Optimus: So this is it. Time for us to leave. And time to say bye to the datascape.

Jiminy: It's not everyday that I get to explore me and Spikewave journal's world. Now that the moment's here, I'm kinda sad we hafta go.

Ryan: You can always come back another time!

Goofy: Great idea! And next time, we can bring everybody!

Sci-Ryan: Yeah! That sounds like fun!

Riku: Actually...there's something important I haven't told you yet. It's just... No. It can wait until you've made it through.

Mickey: Thank you, Riku. Good-bye! You four take care, okay?

Sora: Yep, see ya!

Ryan: Bye!

Riku: Heh.

(Mickey, Donald, Goofy, and Jiminy and the others wave good-bye and enter the gateway. Once the light around them fades, they find themselves back in Disney Castle's Library)

Mickey: Did we...?

(Chip and Dale arrive)

Dale: Yahoo! We have been waiting for you!

Chip (laughing): You're here! Welcome home!

Matau: Chip and Dale are here, so I think that means...

Bertram: We're really here!

Jiminy: It's true! We're finally home! Our castle in the real world.

(Everybody cheers)

Goofy: Hooray! We did it!

(Riku's voice is heard from the computer)

Riku: Can you guys hear me?

(They all look at the screen)

Cody: Glad to see you made it back safely.

Mickey: Loud and clear, Riku and Codu! We're here because of you. Thank you.

(Riku, Cody, Ryan and Sora stand in the Grand Hall)

Riku: Well, guess Sora, Ryan, Cody and I are done for now.

Sora (smiling): Heh.

Evil Anna: Huh? Whaddaya mean by that?

Riku: It's all over now that we figured out how to get rid of the bugs. The journal will go back to the way it was. Is that right, Jiminy?

Jiminy: Yes, it should return to how it was, when I first wrote everything down. Without all those pesky bugs, the journal entries should appear back in their original state.

(Goofy and Crash tries to process this information)

Cody: Right. The entries will reappear as they were before. And all of the rest...has to be reset. That means, the whole adventure we all shared... It'll be swept from our memories like it never happened.

Crash: Does that mean...you're gonna forget about the time we were together? Even all the stuff that we're talkin' about right now?

Riku: We're nothing but data. That's just the way it goes.

Goofy: Not fair.

(Mickey, Goofy, and Donald and the others lower their heads in sadness)

Sora: Mickey, still there?

(They raises their heads back up)

Mickey: Sora?

Ryan: Riku explained things. I know it's not what we all would want, but guys, if that's the way everything's meant to be then...

Donald: That makes me sad.

Spikewave: You went through so much. You really helped us in the datascape. Taking all that away is such a...

Sora: Thank you. But actually, we're okay with it. Besides, you won't be able to get rid of us that easily. Me, Ryan, Cody and Riku, we aren't going anywhere. We might lose some memories, but that doesn't matter when we've still got you guys. Our adventure may not be found in the journal, but you'll always find us in your hearts. (touching his heart) No matter what happens, we'll be right here. As long as you remember us, and everything that we've been through together... Well then, who knows?

Goofy: Sora...

(Everyone in the Library is crestfallen)

Ryan: Heh. Well, we should sign off here. I guess it's good-bye, guys. Give the "us" out there our best, okay?

(An alarm sounds from the computer and alerts everybody)

Jiminy: What's that?

(A message appears on the computer screen: "Data recovery...100%. Data assembly complete. Glitch found in darkness. Awakening dark glitch. Delete Datascape YES/NO? Y__ YE_ YES". In the data Hollow Bastion, the world starts to shake)

Riku: What is this power? It's so much stronger than anything I've ever felt before! Could it be some sort of bug?

Goofy: Bugs!? But how could that happen? I thought we got rid of all of 'em!

Crash: I thought we did too. There's a chance we were wrong.

Donald: Aww... What do we do now?

Riku: That message said it was going to delete the datascape. We can't let something that powerful get loose. The journal data has to be locked!

Optimus: But, then we're gonna lose you and Sora, AND what was in the journal! We'll lose it all!

Jiminy: That's not the only problem! Both Maleficent, Kaos, Swiper and Pete are still inside the datascape, too! We can't let them be deleted, can we?

Mickey: Even if I've never been their biggest fan, they're not made of data. We have gotta find a way to save them!

(Mickey clenches his fist with resolve as Donald and Goofy nod in agreement. Riku grunts in frustration)

Mickey: Huh?

Riku: Then locking the data isn't an option? Both worlds are at stake! What do we do?

Sora: Oh, no... You guys, hang tight! We'll take care of this.

(Sora and Ryan begins running in the direction of the Final Keyhole portal)

Riku: Sora? Ryan? Where are you going? Hey! (pursuing Sora and Ryan) Sora, Ryan, are you crazy!?

Ryan: No way we're gonna leave them out there! You heard what Mickey said. I gotta find Pete, Swiper, Kaos and Maleficent!

Cody: But you don't even know where they are!

Sora: Then we'll just have to go look for them!

Riku: Aren't you afraid? All our memories, our entire existence, even this whole world could get erased!

Sora: We're afraid. Why wouldn't we be? But, you know why we have to do this.

Riku: Huh?

Ryan: You've been in our shoes before. You've fought with no one beside you. Because you knew that was a lot less scary than just sitting around and Waiting by yourself for the end to come. Riku, you once said: "What's important are the actions that you take." I don't know if there's any way that we can win, but I know...I've gotta at least try.

(Riku, Codu watches as Sora and Ryan enters the portal. Elsewhere, Pete, Swiper, Kaos and Maleficent stand in a green-and-blue room with a floor composed of data chips and a wall lined with a flashing grid. Pete is knocked backward by something but regains his balance before he could stumble)

Pete: 'Scuse me there, Maleficent, Kaos, but do you really think we're gettin' anywhere with this colossus?

Maleficent: Hmph! No matter. Any less of an opponent would be an insult.

(Pete, Kaos, Swipee and Maleficent are faced off against a large Darkside Heartless with markings on its body that constantly change color. Sora and Ryan enters the room through a data cloud and puts himself in between the duo and the Heartless)

Sora: It's him! I fought this thing on the island. But I thought it got swept away into the darkness along with everything else... Listen to me! You four need to get outta here!

Maleficent: Do you actually think I'll take orders from one such as you?

Kaos: No way!

Pete: Yeah, but, uh, Maleficent, I think the pip-squeak here may have a point.

Swiper: Me too!

Maleficent: Silence, coward! You will do as I---

(They notice the giant Heartless charging energy in its fist and getting ready to attack)

Maleficent: What!?

Pete: Huh!?

(The fice braces for impact as the Darkside slams its fist down on them. Before it could make contact, however, a  light flashes and Pete, Swiper, Kaos and Maleficent are nowhere to be seen once it subsides)

Sora: Pete! Maleficent!

Ryan: Swiper! Kaos!

(Sora and Ryan stares down the Heartless. It roars, catching Sora and Ryan off guard)

Sora: Unbelievable... This guy's a lot stronger than what I fought before! No way is this the same guy!

Ryan: Me too. I fought that guy from that School I been.

?????: Rage... Hatred... And now, glitches to feed my darkness.

Sora: It feeds on the glitches?

Riku: Wait, that's it! Sora, Ryan, you're not the only one who changed, who evolved within the datascape!

Sora: Riku, you wanna fill me in?

Riku: Yes, but listen to me carefully. I know where the bugs came from. All of them! It's your shadow. It's your Heartless, Sora and Ryan!

Sora & Ryan: My Heartless!?

Cody: You once turned into a Heartless, though you may not remember. It was recorded into the journal along with everything else, then it vanished. Your memories disappeared too, but you managed to get those back. For some reason, though, the pages of the journal---they stayed blank.

Ryan: And you think our Heartless is responsible for that?

Riku: It makes sense. Everything in Jiminy and Spikewave's journal revolved around one person, and that person is you, Sora, Ruan. Without you, there never would have been any entries. This whole time you've been evolving in the datascape, finding new strength, your Heartless has been absorbing data and doing the same. It's grown, Sora and Ryan. Just like you have.

Sora: But Diku, we put all the data back! That must've at least weakened it, right? We can still stop it, can't we?

Cody: No... We should have realized all of this sooner. Normally, defeating a Heartless causes its heart to be released. Then the heart's returned to the person who lost it. But when you defeat Heartless here in the datascape---that wouldn't set any real hearts free. Remember, Sora and Ryan, hearts can't be turned to data. Instead, we think what you released are probably the Heartless's minds.

Sora: We did all that? But then where did the minds end up? Where could they have gone?

Riku: They're right in front of you! Your Heartless has been gathering, then devouring the dark intentions of all the fallen Heartless. That's where it gets its power. From dark data! And now, just like you, it's become something greater, something much more powerful.

Sora: If something this powerful got into Mickey's world... Oh no! We have to protect them. We'll use the strength they've given me!

(Sora battles his Heartless and emerges victorious. The Darkside's body begins to shine brightly, streams of data swirling around it)

Sora: Is it over?

(The light grows stronger until the entire room is consumed by it)

?????: Rage... Hatred... Glitches to feed my darkness... And soon, hearts to sate my hunger!

(The light subsides and the Darkside has vanished. A data cloud appears and leaves behind a Heartless whose appearance is identical to Sora and Ryan's, save for its dark figure and yellow eyes)

Sora: Wait! How is this possible? It's changing...

Ryan: Even another one.

(The Sora and Ryan Heartless lifts its dark Keyblade and readies for battle)

Sora: No, it's evolving!

(The Heartless attacks and clashes Keyblades with Sora and Ryan, who pushes their enemy away. The four combatants spar until Sora and Ryan lands a hit, causing the Heartless to disintegrate into data. Sora and Ryan turns to see the Darkside hanging off the edge of the platform on which he's standing, radiating data as it does so. They rushes in to strike the head, but is repelled as they takes contact. The Keyblade glows and disappears before Sora and Ryan's eyes, much to his surprise. Fatigued, they slumps to the ground. The Darkside grows in size and stands upright. It proceeds to charge its fist and deliver a punch, the data lining its body glowing white)

Mickey: Don't give up, Sora and Ryan!

(Mickey and Optimus appears in front of Sora and Ryan, Keyblade in hand)

Sora: Mickey! Optimus! How---?

Optimus: Anything to help a friend. Don't ya remember what I said? We always help friends. Even when the darkness closes in on ya, all you have to do is look inside. And that's where you'll find your light!

(They raises their Keyblade and gathers energy at the tip)

Mickey: Come on, Sora and Ryan! It's time to do this!

(Sora and Ryan stands and summons their Keyblade. Mickey shoots a beam of light at Sora and Ryan's Heartless, freezing it in place. A Shadow Heartless appears in front of it and Sora and Ryan moves in for the killing blow. Both of them meet each other in midair to attack, Sora and Ryan's strike prevailing. The Darkside disappears and Sora, Ryan, Optimus and Mickey exchange victorious glances. They both reappear in the Grand Hall. Sora and Ryan is astounded to find Riku standing with...)

Sora: Pete! Maleficent! You're here! You're all right!

Ryan: Even you, Swiper and Kaos!

Riku: We found them caught inside a rift in the data.

Maleficent: Hmph! We were just fine. You will hear no words of thanks from me, child.

Pete: Sayonaree to the one, two, three of ya! I'm out. See you chumps on the other side!

Cody: Well, think we'll keep an eye on them on their way out.

Pete: By the way, don't think we're lettin' ya off the hook!

Swiper: Knock it off, Pete.

(Riku and Codu leaves with Pete, Swiper, Kaos and Maleficent)

Mickey: Pretty soon, the data will go back to its original form. The way it was before all of those bugs showed up.

Sora: It's time to say good-bye. Huh? What gives? Is it a glitch? There's some kind of lump in my throat.

Optimus: It's not a glitch. That's just...what good-bye feels like. When we met in the datascape, it brought back a whole bunch of memories. The day we set out on my first big adventure. The day we made a new friend, a special friend. They all came rushing back to me. We knew, that the journal... It's not just a diary. It's a collection---a collection of all we felt. The journal shows what's in our hearts. I promise. We'll tell the other Sora, Ryan, Cody and Riku about what happened here. That way, this journey that we just had will be one everyone shares. The memories will always connect us; they'll be our own special bond. Remember, we're friends forever, Sora and Ryan.

Sora: Yup! Friends forever, Your Majesty.

(Elsewhere, Maleficent, Swiper, Kaos and Pete are walking through the void-like, multicolored path known as Betwixt and Between on their way back to their own world when Maleficent stops to speak)

Maleficent: It's finally clear.

Pete: What's that?

Kaos: Why that world they called the "date escape" seemed so familiar.

Pete: Huh?

Maleficent: A book...known as the ancient Book of Prophecies. It's said to be capable of transcribing events that have yet to take place.

Swiper: No kidding! If we got our mitts on somethin' like that, we could finally take over permanent-like!

Maleficent: Yes, considering legend has it the book can also conjure, making an entire world filled with beings and powers that have yet to exist.

Pete: Really!? A book that can just make up a world? I don't know. That sounds like nothin' more than fluffy, pink, kids' fairy tale stuff. It just sounds too good to be true.

Maleficent: Ah, but who's to say a fairy tale's not true? And I ask you, how does that differ from this world they call the "date escape"?

Pete: Hmm?

Kas: Don't you think it might just be worth our while to search for a connection? Perhaps there's a link of some sort between that so-called journal of theirs and the Book of Prophecies.

Pete: I'd say with that we are onto somethin' huge, eh, Kaos?

Maleficent: Ours is not a lost cause. First, we must take possession of this "data" of theirs.

(Pete laughs as they both continue down the path. In a void bathed in light, Mickey and Optimus holds out a hand and chuckles, smiling. Sora and Ryan sighs before nodding. They smiles and kneels down to take Mickey and Optimus's hand. Mickey and Optimus turns and enters the gateway behind him. Sora and Ryan conjures their Keyblade and shoots a beam of light toward the gateway, sealing the datascape. In the real Disney Castle, Donald and Goofy rush over to where Mickey and Optimus reappears, chatting excitedly while Chip and Dale jump about on the desk. They all look up at the computer monitor and smile, seeing an avatar of Sora and Ryan and the words "Thanks, guys!")
