After Spike, Sora, Donald and Goofy took down Cerberus in Olympus Coliseum, they all headed out into space again to find the next world they're going to, while it's still going to take a while to find Equestria from the looks of it, they've at least been having fun on these adventures despite the situations they're put in.

Spike's been feeling a bit more skilled with his Keyblade's, how he can use them is still something that will need to be explained later, but being able to duel wield them has helped him be a lot faster with his movements as of now, but something tells him he's gonna be getting even more powerful as time goes on, if only Twilight and the others knew where he was now, it'd be a crazy story for sure.

The Gummi ship was currently flying through space while everyone was in they're seats, Spike was feeling bored of the lack of action they've had in a while, and there doesn't look to be another world in sight for a while.
"Man, I thought this thing was fast, you sure we'll come upon another world soon Donald?" Spike asked as Donald was flying the thing by himself.

"Don't be so impatient Spike, we'll come across one very soon." Donald assured which made Spike only shrug his shoulders.

"Yeah well whatever you say, I'm still wondering what happened back with Alice there, something tells me an outside force took her off world, and if Hades was trying to use Cloud back at the Coliseum, something tells me he's tied into something bigger." Spike theorized which was interesting to them all.

"What do you think Hades has to do with this Spike?" Sora asked while he turned to him.

"I don't know, but something tells me he is, but hopefully when we get more skilled, we'll get our answers soon." Spike said hopefully which the others agreed too.

"I sure hope so, how long do you think it'll be till we find your home Spike?" Sora asked which made him think over it again.

"I don't know, but something tells me it's gonna be a long time now that I'm with you guys, with the threat we're facing, it's best we focus on stopping the Heartless before I go home." Spike said as he summoned his Oblivion Keyblade again, there was something about this Keyblade in particular which Spike just liked.

"But what if your world is also attacked by the Heartless Spike? What would we do if that happens?" Goofy asked with worry which was a possibility, but with the threats Twilight and everyone else has faced, they may be able to handle it back home.

"Twilight and my other friends are very strong back home, especially Celestia and Luna, I'm sure they're magic will be able to deal with the Heartless without me being there. Still, it's gonna be a story when we get back." Spike said as he put his weapon away and looked on ahead again.

"Yeah, especially for when I find Riku and Kairi." Sora said with a smile while they kept on flying.

But not too long after they had this small talk, they could see a new world coming into the distance, it looked like a large jungle world of sorts, and from the looks of it, it may be an interesting place to go to.
"Hey Donald, you think the king may be down there?" Goofy asked with a hopeful look, but Donald didn't look too convinced it would be true.

"In a backwater place like that? No way, let's just move on." Donald insisted while he was about to go around the world.

"Come on Donald, we've been flying here for hours! Can't we at least go down there to stretch our legs?" Spike asked with an annoyed look while Sora stood up from his seat.

"Spike's right, Riku and Kairi may be down there, let's just check it out." Sora suggested which Donald didn't agree with.

"Forget it, we're on an important mission you two!" Donald shouted which made Sora more mad from his disagreements.

"Just land!" Sora shouted back while he was getting in his face.

"Donald, your being really immature here! Even when we least expect it, there may be something that can help us down there!" Spike countered back while he was trying to calm them down.

"Aw, phooey!" Donald shouted back in response which Sora had enough of.

"Forget it Donald, we're landing now!" Sora shouted as he got in front of Donald's seat and took the wheel controlling the ship.

"Don't touch that! NO!!!" Donald screamed as Sora didn't know how to fly the Gummi Ship, and it began spiraling downwards into the new world they see.

"Sora!!!" Spike screamed as a light flashed as they entered the world, and everyone disappeared once again because of the lack of control.

Spike didn't know where he was falling right now, but as Spike's vision was coming into focus, he could hear Sora screaming as he and Spike fell directly into a large wooden house, they looked to have landed in a huge jungle like world, and from the looks of it, they were separated from Donald and Goofy as a result of the rough landing.

"Ow.. my head" Sora said with pain while he and Spike were getting up.

"Ugh, did you seriously have to drive the ship like that Sora? I know you wanted to see this world, but seriously." Spike asked while he stretched out his back.

"I'm sorry about that Spike, but I just... really wanted to know if there were any signs of my friends here, we got separated when my island was destroyed by the Heartless, and I'm just really worried for them." Sora said in defense which made Spike sigh in response.

Despite Sora's reckless actions right now, Donald was also in the wrong for responding the way he did, and it's because of that they're now left on this world, but Spike knows Sora is just worried for his friends, and the only way to find them, is if they find Donald and Goofy.
"It's alright, I know your just worried for them, but we need to find out where we are, and where Donald and Goofy are too, we aren't gonna get around or off this world without them. Alright?" Spike asked as they looked around the large wooden house they were in, it looked extremely old by now, there was barely any signs someone could live here with the state it's in, and it made Spike wonder just how old this place is.

"Alright, but where are they?" Sora asked while they looked around for Donald and Goofy, not knowing that a strange claw was coming out from the shadows high above.

Spike's senses went off and he gasped in shock as he saw something lunge at them from high above.
"Sora, look out!" Spike screamed as he summoned his Keyblade's again, and he blocked the thing from biting them directly before he threw the creature back.

"You alright?!" Sora asked with worry while they came in front of what looked like a wild Jaguar, it looked completely lost to it's senses, and the only thing it knows, is to kill to survive.

"I'm fine, get ready Sora!" Spike shouted while he twirled his Keyblade's around, Sora soon did the same and summoned his own Keyblade again, and they both prepared themselves for a tough fight against the Jaguar.

The Jaguar roared at them and did a fast lunge directly at Sora, but Sora quickly rolled out of the way which gave Spike the moment to tag in, and he delivered some hard slashes directly to it, Spike roared back at the Jaguar and shot a Fire blast from his Keyblade to knock it down.

Sora charged at the thing with his Keyblade dragging on the ground, and Sora soon jumped in the air and tried delivering an air slash on the thing, but the Jaguar was able to recover from Spike's blast and quickly ran across the room to avoid him, the thing began circling around them to corner them, but Spike and Sora weren't gonna go down against this thing.

"Get out of here you freak!" Spike shouted as the Jaguar lunged at Spike directly, but just before the creature could do any more harm to them, someone new came in to save them, another person with a large spear and long hair, he ran across the structures from above and quickly jumped in between them, and used his spear to hold back the Jaguar before he threw it back.

The Jaguar growled at the person with anger before it decided it was time to go, and it quickly ran out of the tree house by jumping through a window to escape, and the group took heavy breaths with relief knowing that things gone now.
"Thank Celestia for that.." Spike said with relief while he put his weapon away again while the person turned to them.

"Sabor's, danger." The person warned with a serious look which made them a bit nervous.

"Uh.. thank you." Sora said nervously while Spike stood at his side.

"Thank... you.." The person replied with a bit of a confused look.

"Are.. you okay sir?" Spike asked with worry as he looked to have been on his own here.

"And you know.. what is this place?" Sora asked with worry too while the person tried understanding them a bit.

"This place.. this.. place.." The person spoke again which confused them more a bit.

Spike and Sora looked at each other with a confused look for a moment and wondered what's up with him, but the two tried to talk with the person to understand him too.
"Do you know where the others are?" Spike asked hoping he knew where Donald and Goofy were.

"We're looking for our friends, have you seen them?" Sora asked slowly to hope he understood him,

"Hmm?" The person hummed again with a confused look.

"Friends...." Sora and Spike said slowly at once to help him understand more.

"Friends." The figure replied with a bit more understanding of them.

"That's right, our friends, there's two of them. There's a loud one that's named Dona...." Sora was trying to explain who they're friends are, but he was still upset over Donald's rude behavior, and Spike could see he wanted to move on from that for now.

"It's alright Sora, we'll find them later. Look sir, we're looking for Sora's friends, Riku, and Kairi." Spike explained in a calm tone which the person tried understanding.

"Looking for Riku... friends?" The person asked with a confused look still.

"Yeah." Sora replied with a small smile until he saw something right behind the figure.

"Kairi? Friends?" The figure asked again while he saw what looked like Kairi behind him, and she seemed to be going somewhere which confused Sora a bit.

"Yeah, that's them. Do you know where they are?" Spike asked again while he crossed his arms.

"Friends.. here." The figure answered which made Sora's hopes spark up hearing that.

"Really?!" Sora asked with hope while the figure tried speaking in a language only he understood.

"What.. what was that?" Spike asked with a confused look again.

"*&&X%. Friends, here." The figure said calmly which was still confusing to them.

"Not sure we understand it.. but show us, take us to Riku and Kairi please." Sora asked with a hopeful look while Spike smiled knowing they may have come to the right world after all.

"Tarzan. Tarzan go." Tarzan introduced while he smiled at them.

"And I'm Sora, and this is Spike. Tarzan go, Sora and Spike go go.." Sora replied with a calm look while Tarzan went to the doors in front of them, and he opened them up.

Spike and Sora soon went up to the view in front of them, and they were in complete shock as they saw the view of a huge wild jungle in front of them, wherever they were, they were deep in the jungles for sure.
"Wow..." Spike said with shock as they saw Tarzan jump off the foot of the Treehouse, and he soon ran off the net holding the place before he jumped down to a tree which he slid across.

"Do you think we'll be alright with this Sora?" Spike asked with a nervous look while they tried following him.

"If he knows where Riku and Kairi are, we gotta take our chances. Come on Spike." Sora replied before he grabbed Spike's arm and he and Spike screamed before they jumped off the net and into the jungle below them.

Spike and Sora flew threw a ton of branches and vines before they landed on a large tree that was like a slide to them, Spike screamed with fear as he tried keeping balance on this thing, and it was going down at fast speeds which had obstacles come in the way for them.
"Watch out Spike!" Sora shouted before he grabbed him again and helped him get control of his balance.

"Whoa.. hold on..." Spike said as he tried using his Keyblade to smash against the logs that were coming to them, Tarzan soon joined them on the sides and jumped over the logs with great skill before he ran across another tree and landed back down on the slide and continued surfing downwards.

Spike and Sora looked at eachother with surprise and tried keeping up with Tarzan the best they could.
"How long do you think he's been doing this kind of thing?!" Spike asked as he tried sliding under more of the branches, and Sora tried jumping over them too to avoid being harmed.

"I don't know, but something tells me it's been a while for him! Hang on!" Sora shouted as they were going across a high area in the jungle. Spike and Sora tried keeping they're balance while surfing on the trees they were on, Tarzan looked to be really skilled with this kind of stuff, and he was making short work of obstacles coming in they're way.

Spike slid under some more logs while also avoiding any branches coming in his way, this was the biggest Jungle Spike's seen, and there was a lot he had to get used to in order to avoid harm here. Sora helped Spike out and slashed down more large logs in they're way, and soon enough, they were all coming into a clearing which looked to be the end of the ride.
"I think that's the end of it! Hang on!" Spike shouted again while he braced himself for what's about to happen.

Spike and Sora soon screamed again as they went flying off the slide again when it reached the end, and they both fell down into what looked like a camp settlement that was at the bottom of the jungle, but near a bamboo opening that could help them see where to go. Spike landed down on the table while Sora landed down on one of the tents near it, and they both tried shaking off that experience they just had with the tree sliding.
"Man.. how does he handle this kind of stuff?" Sora asked with a confused look while he was walking up to Spike again, they could see Tarzan going towards a tent just ahead of them, which may be a home of sorts for him.

"I don't know, but he isn't like the other people we've seen, you think he really knows where to find your friends?" Spike asked with a hopeful look while they tried catching up with him too.

"I hope so, but let's just hope Donald and Goofy are alright too." Sora prayed while they were heading into the tent, the camp looked like it had been set up for a while to say the least, there was a ton of stuff that looked to be studying on what looked like Gorilla's, there was some supplies to help survive in this place for a long while, and it did look like a comfy place if you ignore any predators that lurk in this place.

Spike and Sora soon caught up with Tarzan after he took a head start with them, and he soon led them into the tent where a young woman was who looked to be researching stuff.
"Jane." Tarzan greeted which got the woman's attention who turned to them.

"Tarzan. Oh, and who are these two?" Jane asked in response while she looked at Sora and Spike.

"Uh.. sorry for the sudden appearance, but I'm Spike, and this is Sora." Spike introduced while Sora waved at her with a nervous look.

"It's.. nice to meet you." Sora said nervously while she looked fascinated seeing them.

"Oh.. you both speak English? So this means your not related to Tarzan.. are you both here to study the Gorilla's?" Jane asked with interest which confused them a bit.

"What do you mean by that?" Spike asked with a confused look again. but before they could try and talk more with this woman, someone else came into the tent with a couple friends of theirs.

"This is highly doubtful." Another person announced which made them turn behind, and they saw a large person with a deadly weapon in his arms, while he looked intimidating in areas, just behind him was they're friends Donald and Goofy.

"Goofy, Donald, your alright!" Spike shouted with relief while he came up to Goofy who was relieved to see they're okay.

"Spike, Sora! We were so worried!" Goofy said with a smile while he laughed a bit seeing they're fine, but Donald and Sora looked at eachother with an upset look and only turned around while crossing they're arms.

"Some of us weren't worried at all.." Donald said while still being upset over Sora's reckless actions back on the ship.

"Come on guys.." Spike argued while the person scoffed seeing this happen.

"A circus of clowns, not much use for hunting Gorilla's out here." The person said as he was about to leave before Jane had stopped him.

"Mr Clayton, we are studying them, not hunting them! This is important research!" Jane reminded which Clayton didn't care for., and Jane sighed in frustration seeing his rash actions here.

"You okay Jane?" Spike asked with worry while she turned back to them.

"I'm okay, but as long as your friends with Tarzan, it's all I need to know. Do make yourselves at home if you wish." Jane said with a polite look while looking around the tent, but Sora and Donald didn't look at eachother over what happened earlier.

"Well anyway.. I'm staying!" Sora and Donald said at once which confused Sora for a moment, and Spike sighed in frustration knowing he has to find a way to fix this.

"Ugh, this is gonna need some time. So what happened to you two? Did you find anything when we were separated?" Spike asked while he looked at Goofy.

"We did actually, look at what we found.." Goofy replied as he opened up his hands, and he showed a strange looking Gummi block that must mean something important.

"What is this thing?" Sora asked while he inspected it closer.

"It's a Gummi Block, it's made of the same material we use to make our ship." Goofy explained which could mean one thing.

"So this could mean.." Sora said with fascination before Donald finished for him.

"The King could be here.." Donald finished while Spike smirked at him.

"I told you there'd be something important for us to find here." Spike teased while he nudged Donald's arm a bit who was a bit annoyed to admit he was right.

"If he is here somewhere, we gotta go look for him, for now." Donald concluded as he looked at Sora with an upset look again.

"Alright, I'll let you tag along with me and Spike, for now." Sora countered back which made Spike slap his face with annoyance.

Spike sighed in frustration before turning to Jane to apologize for what's happening right now.
"Sorry about what's happening ma'am, my friends here got into a small fight before we arrived, now they're not really seeing eye to eye with eachother." Spike apologized while Sora walked away from Donald a bit more.

"I can understand that, people often get into arguments at times, I'm sure they'll make up at one point soon." Jane assured while Spike looked at his friends with worry.

"I hope so, so what's up with Tarzan by the way? How come he has.. trouble understanding us?" Spike asked while he saw Tarzan was inspecting a camera of sorts, Jane sighed hearing that from him and tried explaining what's up with him.

"Apparently, Tarzan was raised in the jungle by the Gorilla's, it isn't easy to speak with him, but he's learning how to speak with us." Jane explained while Sora walked up to them with an interested look hearing this.

"So he was speaking Gorilla back there.. it explains why he needed a bit of extra detail..." Sora said with a worried look while he looked at Tarzan who turned to them with a confused look.

"That's right. He said you two were looking for some friends of yours?" Jane asked while she was looking at Sora.

"Yeah, we are, he said my friends, Riku and Kairi are here, but he also said another word which we didn't understand.." Sora replied while he recalled what Tarzan said earlier.

"He's still trying to figure it out himself, so why don't we try this? We can show him some slides to try and see what matches with that word." Jane suggested while she held up a device which could show them some slides.

"I think that can work, you have the right slides for them right?" Spike asked with a hopeful look while he tried seeing how this thing works, but Kane looked surprised when she saw the slides were missing, and didn't know where they were right now.

"I thought I did, but they're missing. They may be around the camp if we look for them." Jane replied which made Sora look out at the tent door with an idea.

"I'll go looking for them, I'll be right back." Sora suggested while he went out of the tent to find where they are. Spike soon turned to Tarzan and the rest of the group who were still trying to figure out what to do here.

Spike knew Donald was upset over what Sora did still, but it was something they were both equally at fault for, but with his experience with friendship, he may find a way to help them make up. And Spike tried finding a way to help Donald see his mistakes here.
"You know Donald, what you said to Sora back there was really rude, I know you and Goofy are looking for your king, but you need to remember what else we're on this journey for." Spike said as he went up to Donald and Goofy, and even Goofy can admit Donald was rude back there with his actions.

"Spike's right Donald, the way you responded to Sora was rude, while Sora made some mistakes there too, you should at least know we're not just searching for our king." Goofy advised while Donald scoffed a bit hearing that.

"What do you know Spike? You don't know the king like we do, or Sora's own friends either. I know your wanting to get home, but what we're doing here is incredibly important!" Donald countered which made Spike shake his head in response.

"Friendship is ALSO an important thing here Donald, if you and Sora can't get along with the rest of us, it'll lead into tough situations later if you don't make up. I may be searching for my home with you guys, but even if we're here to find your king, you need to remember why Sora came along with us too." Spike reminded while he hoped Sora was doing alright on the camp ground right now.

Donald tried calming down after hearing that, even though they were here for important stuff, Spike put up a good point with what he was saying.
"What do you even think we can do anyway? I don't think the King would've come to a place like this." Donald said as he looked around the world they're in now.

"And yet what did you two find after we ended up here? A Gummi block. Which means the King DID come here, either he's out there right now searching for something, or has already left, but left behind something important for us here to follow his footsteps. Don't forget what happened back in Wonderland, if there are people like Alice at risk of being taken here, we can't risk skipping over a new place we go to. It's important we go to every place we can find." Spike advised while he was looking at the many different books there was in the tent.

"I.. guess your right.. but I'm gonna need time to get over it, if the King did leave something here for us, we'll see if that's the case." Donald replied while Goofy and Spike looked at eachother and shook they're heads.

"You guys just need to apologize Donald, we're all together on this, and no matter where we go, we need to be a team, and cover eachother for our own weaknesses." Spike advised which Goofy agreed to.

"Yeah, don't forget Donald, our ship runs on happy faces! We can't go around with you all grouchy like that can we?" Goofy joked which made Spike laugh a bit hearing that, and Donald only sighed hearing that and calmed down finally.

"We'll see what happens then.." Donald replied while he crossed his arms and tapped his feat while waiting for Sora to come back.

It didn't take too long for them to wait for Sora to come back with the slides in his hand, he managed to find them over the camp after someone misplaced them. Sora had a lot to think over with what happened back on the ship, and when they were in a better spot, Spike would try and help Sora see his own faults here too.

"I got the slides, I'm sure it's all of them, you think this will have what we need?" Sora asked while he handed Jane the slides to see what they'll show.

"I hope so, Tarzan still struggles to speak with me, Clayton barely comes in to help me when he's out, I'm usually on my own with this research, but thankfully with you here, we'll be able to find out what this means a lot faster." Jane prayed while she was putting the slides in to see what they show.

"Let's hope they have what we need." Spike prayed while Tarzan stood right next to him.

"Alright, first slide, let's see what it is." Sora said as he turned the thing on and they soon saw a picture come up in front of them, but Sora had a surprised look when they all saw a strange looking castle show up on it, it looked so out of place with what else these slides had, but there was something familiar about it to Sora..

"What's wrong Sora?" Donald asked while Sora looked confused seeing it.

"This place, it looks so familiar, but.. how? I've never been of my island?" Sora asked himself while Spike was interested seeing it.

"I don't know, but something tells me we'll find out soon enough." Spike replied as they tried looking through the slides, the slides they showed soon went to what looked like a large ship at sea, two people having a spar with some swords, a picture of a gorilla itself, and another person holding out flowers to a woman. But nothing seemed to be right for Tarzan.

"Well Tarzan?" Jane asked while she looked at him hoping these were what that word meant.

"Where are Riku and Kairi?" Sora asked again while Tarzan stayed silent, and he only shook his head in response which said he doesn't know where they are.

"Hold on, we thought you knew?" Spike asked with a worried look until they could hear Clayton come into the tent again.

"That leaves only one place. Young man, we've been in this jungle for sometime now, and we have yet to find your friends. I'd wager they're with the Gorilla's, but Tarzan is refusing to take us to them." Clayton suggested while Spike had his suspicious of Clayton hearing this.

"Tarzan has his reasons, and I'm sure if they were with them, he'd know somehow." Spike countered while Tarzan thought over it.

"Then why doesn't he take us to the Gorilla's?" Clayton asked again while looking at Tarzan who didn't trust Clayton at all hearing this. But looking at Sora and Spike, he could see they needed to know if they were here or not, and he soon agreed that he'll lead them to the gorilla's.

"Tarzan.. are you sure about this?" Jane asked with worry while Tarzan was looking to the exit.

"Tarzan will go see Kerchack." Tarzan said as he was making his way out of the tent.

"Kerchack?" Jane asked with a confused look while Spike and the others were following behind him.

"He must be the leader, perfect! I'll go along as an escort, after all, the jungle is a dangerous place." Clayton said with a small smirk which Spike didn't trust either.

"We can handle ourselves Clayton, but if you wanna come, you better not cause any trouble. And try not to get caught in the vines, they're far more irritating then you may think." Spike advised with a glare while he walked next to Sora who was concerned about this.

"Do you think they'll be with them?" Sora asked Spike once again who only shrugged his shoulders in response.

"Honestly, we won't know until we see it for ourselves. Let's just hope Tarzan doesn't get in trouble with this." Spike prayed while he was following behind.

"Let's hope so.." Sora replied as they followed Tarzan into the jungle, while they still have issues to work out with Donald right now, hopefully with this world they're in, they'll be another step closer to finding Sora's friends, and the king, before something worse comes for them..

Author's Note

Hey guys, thanks for reading this! Sorry for the wait on this next chapter, but I just had a ton of other stuff to deal with. I know this chapter was shorter then the others, but Deep Jungle is a world I feel needs to be in 2 parts because of how big it can be for most people. I'm gonna try and have this world add extra interactions for the cast so they can grow more as friends. While there may not have been much in this chapter, I'll be sure the next one helps resolve the issues we have right now.

I just hope you don't mind this world being in 2 parts, but I'm gonna have to do multiple part chapters with other world like Hollow Bastion, and especially in KH2 and 3, it's gonna take a while to fully get through these worlds. But I just hope you liked this, and look forward to more of it!
