"Hmmm...." Cow-girl sat on top of a cow. "What does the contract say. I may act like it, but I'm not stupid."

Lighthearted background music began playing...in the background, of course, as Leon unrolled the paper and smiled. "Now no one here could ever think you're stupid." he sang, clearing his throat. "Whereever would you get such an idea?"
He smiled as he walked up to Cow-girl, showing her a glimpse of the contract before it disappeared. It was clear he was entering "Disney Musical Mode" and the rest of his actions and words would make up a clever villain song which cannot be implemented with typing, sadly.
“This paper’s little more than an agreement…” he smiled.
“Just sign the dotted lines here, here and here!” he motioned to several lines which were relatively large compared to the fine print.
“Now there’s nothing that you have to be afraid of…
Signing just ensures you don’t hinder my goal!
Once you’ve finally put your name upon this paper,
You’ll entitle me to your immortal soul.” he laughed, cleverly rhyming as part of Disney Musical standard.
An eerie chorus of shadows from the Shadow Realm (the place where Leon obtains all Shadow brand products) joined in with "oohs" and "ahs".
The background became more upbeat but still contained its eerie, sinister darkness.
"Just sign your soul." he sang. Sign your soul... came the Shadow Chorus.
"Yes, sign your soul." Sign your soul...
"Grab a pen and take this paper and your spirit I'll control!"
Leon summoned a small silvery orb in his hand and watched as it transformed into the shape of Cow-girl. A set of strings were attached to the figure, manipulating its movement.
"While the thought may seem too tender,
all you need do is surrender!
And give it up; Yes, just give ol' Leon your soul!" He crushed the figure in his hand and it disappeared into mist.
"Now of course you'll probably have some...reservations." Leon shrugged his shoulders and nodded, the chorus continuing its "oohs".
"With your spirit I am sure you'll hate to part!" The mist traveled around Cow-girl and formed into a hand, resting upon her shoulder.
"But according to my careful calculations...
You will not need it like you need your lungs and heart!" A wide grin swept Leon's face as a silvery figure of a heart and lung appeared behind him.
"And besides, soon as your soul's gone, you'll forget her!
Your memories will fall into a hole...
Believe me, this arrangement's for the better!
Now sign the contract and relinquish me your soul!"
The entire background was transformed into some nightmarish Disney acid sequence as Leon began to sing the chorus once more that words could not possibly describe.
"Just sign your soul." he sang. Sign your soul...
"Come, sign your soul!" Sign your soul...
"It's a fairly small investment if with us you want to roll!"
The shadows around Leon all nodded in agreement.
"While your soul may seem in danger,
you can trust me - I'm no stranger!
Go ahead and give Sir Veralice your soul!" The Shadows all circled around Cow-girl, closing in on her ominously.
"I'll get rid of all your irks and quirks...You'll go from evil to just droll!" Leon held the last syllable for a very, very long time. The Shadows all joined in with ominous harmony.
"Now do the right thing! Be a pal and sign your soul!" he finished with a hint of dramatic flair. The weird dimension they were in and the Shadows all disappeared. Leon and company stood there in Incrediland. The only thing left from the musical/Big Lipped Alligator Moment was the contract, awaiting to be signed by Cow-girl.

Zais was taking notes. "Hmm musical numbers. Haven't used that tactic yet."

(This reminds me of The Little Mermaid's Poor Unfortunate Soul)
Cow-girl looked over the contract. "Give you my...soul? But I...what will happen to me?"

"Something magical." Zais said, looking up from his noted with a disturbingly dreamy look on his face. "Just do it."

((Similar subject matter and rhymes, I suppose. Only so many words rhyme with soul, like bowl and coal and dole and foal and goal and...If I ever get around to composing the tune, I'll have you all listen to it.))
Leon smiled and spoke. "Absolutely nothing. The worst possible thing that could happen is that if you die, you will belong to me forever. But main characters never die, so you don't worry about that."

Cow-girl nodded and held out her hand. "Got a pen?"

"Of course." A pen materialized in Leon's hand, courtesy of the Shadow Realm. He placed it in Cow-girl's hand.

Cow-girl took it, signed the contract, and waited for something magical to happen.

"Ha ha ha ha ha..." Leon chuckled, watching as the contract floated high into the air, twirling around and sparkling. A minuscule, shadowy vortex swirled around the contract. Austin temporarily took control of Nicole's character to type that Cow-girl too began to levitate until she was at eye level with the contract. A light, silver essence traveled from her into the contract.
"Oh, and I'll also be tampering with your personality a bit. Your soul lets me do that." Leon added hastily. The contract transformed into some sort of black hole, draining some red energy from Cow-girl. "This red energy is your annoyance. I'm taking some of it to make your presence more bearable." When the process was finished, the contract disappeared and Cow-girl plummeted to the ground.

Cow-girl landed on one of her cows, but she was unconcious. The contract had wiped her out, or it could have been one way of making her less annoying, but either way, she was knocked out.
------------------------------
"Ah, Awesome Land...it needs redecorating."
Krispy sat on top of her thrown which had been carried by four soldiers. She raised her arms like a conductor who was about to present his new symphony. With the flick of her wrist the trees began to rumble. The soil came up from the ground in waves and smashed into the buildings, causing them to crack and break until they fell over in a heap. The ground swallowed them up until it looked like there had been nothing there previously. The ground shuffled for a bit before Krispy threw her arms up and the ground spit out millions of slabs which came down to form a flat surface. This would be the base for her new city. "Alright! Get to work!"
The krispy soldiers began to hull the cereal and marshmallow out of the carts to start forming buildings. Krispy could have easily controled the cereal to build buildings herself, but she'd rather watch her soldiers do it. "Finally, something I can control."

Meanwhile, in Dynasty City!
Chancellor Awesome swiftly turned around from Bill Nye and stared out in the distance toward Awesome Land. The invasion has already been finished... he surmised, sighing. "That's our cue, Aurora. The country has already been sieged." Chancellor Awesome's voice was not very grave for such a situation.
"What? How can you-
"My eyesight is impeccable. I can see them from here. Come!" Chancellor Awesome grabbed Aurora's arm and summoned the Ridley body toward him. "We'll be leaving now, Mr. Nye. Be careful and farewell." With that, Chancellor Awesome and Aurora disappeared.

Bill Nye sighed. "And so it begins again..." He activated a button on his belt. The area around Dynasty City turned hazy. It was better than a barrier, it was a spacial-loop region. Anyone going in would come out in the exact same spot they had left. It was created with his control of Space, but he was unsure how long it would last.
"Please hurry, Aurora."

"Excellent." Leon laughed. "Now, someone go grab Cow-girl and herd those cows somewhere safe." he commanded. "I'll go find some sticks and build a cheap tent. I sense a convenient, plot induced rainstorm in our future." Immediately a massive torrent of rain poured down upon the group. Leon teleported himself to a small forest, hacking away at trees with his staff-sword.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aurora and Chancellor Awesome landed in none other than...Really Cool Land! Aurora recognized the scenery immediately, having studied the country a lot before rising to power.
"Chancellor...Why are we here? We're trying to keep a low profile, aren't we? Isn't traveling to our neighbor country sort of defeating the purpose?" Aurora asked, taking a deep breath of Really Cool air.
"In a sense, yes. But I must speak with the royal children." Chancellor Awesome replied hastily, dashing quickly to the castle, clutching Aurora's arm all the while.
Not a fan of being dragged along, Aurora struggled, trying to wrench her arm free. "What's the big idea?" she yelled, but she assumed that it was for her own good. Her full trust was put in Chancellor Awesome. "And besides, Johnny is adventuring with my brother. You won't be able to find him." she added.
"I'll speak with the daughter, then." Chancellor Awesome said, and in the blink of an eye the two were in the Really Cool Kingdom, approaching the throne room.

King Randolf jumped to his feet as the doors swung open. "Who dares to enter the Throne Room uninvited? Guards!"
"Wait! Dad, it's okay!" Sarah ran out in front of the guards, arms outstretched. "Please."
The guards halted, exchanged a look, and waited for the king to order them.
"Fine," he said gruffly. "Stand down. But I expect a explanation."
"Of course." She smiled. "Hello, Aurora. Who's this with you?"

"Good evening, Princess." Aurora bowed. Why she would bow to Sarah but not to Bill Nye THE F***ING SCIENCE GUY is beyond me. Chancellor Awesome, apparently thinking the same thing, shot her a quick frown before bowing as well.
After rising, Aurora continued. "This is my new royal advisor, Chancellor Awesome." she introduced him.
"Good evening, and thank you for permitting us into your home." Chancellor Awesome pulled a chivalrous move and kissed one of Sarah's hands, although he was still wearing his mask so...yea. Strange.
Aurora glanced at the chancellor uncomfortably and whispered something along the lines of "Stop being weird!" before clearing her throat. "Chancellor Awesome said he needed to speak with you, Sarah." she began. "We're evacuating the country and he's gathering materials for disguises...A new suit of armor, I think it was." Aurora explained, waiting for the response.

"More materials!" Randolf roared. "The last time we assisted you, we very nearly had a crisis on our hands with the Laura person, or something."
"Dad," Sarah hissed. "This is different."

"Ha ha, believe me King Randolf, I understand." Chancellor Awesome laughed. "I assure you, however, this time is much different as your daughter says. In fact, I don't really even need materials. I have enough metal to last a lifetime." Chancellor Awesome smiled from behind his mask. A loud clanking could be heard from outside; that's where they had 'parked' the Metallo Ridley body.
"What I really need is information about the Artifacts of Wisdom." Chancellor Awesome said this as delicately as possible so as not to come off as suspicious. He figured that if someone came into his kingdom asking about magical artifacts, he'd be suspicious too. "I haven't told you all yet, but Awesome Land has recently been invaded. I believe that if I had access to the place of the True Sword's forging, I could make a suit of armor that will not only disguise me, but resist whatever magic the invading army may employ."
"It's the least you can do!" Aurora chimed in brightly. "You did sign the treaty and you are allies of Awesome Land. We don't want you to involve yourselves in the war after all that has happened, so could you grant us this small favor?" Aurora's face filled with enough tears to bring Chuck Norris to his knees.

King Randolf scrunched up his face and looked to his wife. She shrugged. "So we did."
"Even if I said yes, Chancellor, I don't know where the True Sword, or any of the Artifacts were forged. You'd have to look in the histories in the Really Cool Library."
"I'll take them," Sarah offered. "Cassy and I'll go and help."
"Very well," Randolf sighed. "Guards, show the four of them to the Royal - "
"that's alright dad, I got this."
Sarah beckoned for Aurora and the Chancellor to follow her.
