Disney Vs Non-Disney Villains War - Part Three

Henchman of a Fairy

Recruited as the new bodyguard of the Fairy Godmother, Tai Lung requests to kill the refuge boogeyman, Oogie Boogie, since the lesser didn't pay his debt to the Fairy Godmother. He is instead replaced by the Bahamut, who quickly falls to Oogie's mysterious assistance.

Defeat Through Memories

Wanting to end this menace, the Fairy Godmother sends Tai Lung to kill the boogeyman in his new lair. Though, he doesn't meet him in person, he encounters instead another ally of Oogie Boogie, the Graceful Assassin, Marluxia. After a trade of insults, Tai Lung prepares to fight his goe, as soon as Marluxia summons his weapon. Despite recieving the first hit, Tai Lung doesn't not give up and leaps at Marluxia, only for the Assassin to dodge most of his attacks. He even punches the Organization member, though he learns of a bittern shock. During the fight, Marluxia manages to pick up old memories, regarding about Tai Lung's backstory. Prior to the events of the war, he was a disciple of Master Xehanort, before he was casted out by Master Eraqus. Shocked to handle the truth, Tai Lung stops fighting, leaving Marluxia to mock him, before he would capture him. He is then brought before Marluxia's master, DiZ, who locks him up in a cell.

Mirrors, Mistakes and Death

Braig, seeking to tie up loose ends, found Tai Lung locked away within Oogie Boogie's old lair. Freeing the snow leopard from his prison, Braig enlisted his help, revealing that Oogie Boogie was now trying to make a last ditch play for the throne. Braig offered Tai Lung a shot at revenge on the bag of bugs that had imprisoned him, reasoning that, as Xehanort's former pupil, he should have no trouble dealing with Oogie.

Following Braig's tipoff, Tai Lung tracked Oogie to his casino, and cornered the minor boogeyman. Oogie quickly activated his casino's various deathtraps, only for Tai Lung to tear through them with ease. Oogie then tripped a buzzsaw trap, which managed to graze Tai Lung, stunning him long enough for Oogie to try to make his escape. Recovering quickly, the snow leopard leapt after Oogie, kicking him to the ground. Frustrated, Oogie decided to pull out all the stops, and summoned a legion of bugs which he absorbed into his body, growing to an enormous size. Undeterred, Tai Lung continued to attack, only to find himself momentarily overwhelmed by Oogie's sheer size and strength. The warrior managed to return with a vengeance, however, raining a flurry of fiery punches on Oogie, which succeeded in ripping through the boogeyman's massive body, causing his horde of bugs to spill out. The bug that made up Oogie's brain attempted to scurry away, only to be crushed, putting an end to Oogie Boogie permanently. Tai Lung did not have long to savor his victory, however, as Braig appeared and double-crossed him, intending to tie up his final loose end by eliminating the snow leopard, thus putting an end to Xehanort's legacy once and for all. Braig fired several large spikes in an attempt to skewer Tai Lung, only for the warrior to deftly dodge them. Braig then teleported to higher ground before firing more spikes, but Tai Lung managed to block them with his fists before redirecting one at Braig. Tai Lung then kicked the rest of the spikes into the wall, using them to climb up and reach Braig. Before he could, the assassin fired a hail of arrows on the snow leopard. Tai Lung was able to shield himself using a chandelier, however, and leapt onto the ledge where Braig waited. The warrior flung a massive piece of debris at Braig, staggering him. As Tai Lung closed in, Braig teleported out of reach once more. The snow leopard gave chase, only for Braig to blast him through a wall. Tai Lung climbed out of the rubble and leapt at Braig again, but the assassin proved quicker on the draw this time, and felled the warrior with a swipe of his blades, killing Tai Lung instantly.

Aftermath

During the end of the war, Tai Lung's soul ended up going to the spirit realm, and he found peace there at long last. While there, he found a phantom of his former mentor Xehanort as he remembered him. Together, they sat and looked out at the sunset, content with the hand fate dealt.

Grendel knocks Tai Lung aside with a backhand, but he inspires Tai Lung to fire up his paws and batter the monster. Tai Lung manages to severely injure Grendel's eardrums, leading the monster to kick Tai Lung into a wall. Tai Lung can only watch as Grendel tears Farquaad in half.

Dodging around the Panda King's attacks, Tai Lung beat him into submission.

Vs Raleigh

With two members of the Fiendish Five gone, Raleigh called his friend Muggshot to plan a counter strike against whoever was taking out their teammates. Their meeting was interrupted by the powerful warrior Tai Lung.

Syndrome zapped Muggshot into submission while Tai Lung punched Raleigh into a pond. Grateful for the assistance, Tai Lung joined forces with Syndrome.

Against Master Hand's Forces

Now that their defenses had been destroyed, Maleficent, Jafar, Tai Lung, Pete, a Shadow Clone of Oogie Boogie (Made by the bag of bugs himself so he could still recover at the base) and Master Xehanort entered the scene. They were immediately attacked by Wario, Gruntilda and her sisters, Bowser, Ganondorf, Kefka, and Kuja. Right off the bat, Tai Lung was able to crush both of Grunty's sisters causing the bag of bones to temporary flee. Bowser fired his cannon at the clone which easily disposed of it. Though Tai Lung and Jafar easily destroyed the cannon, Grunty returned in a huge tank to protect herself and started firing one huge spell. But when Maleficent made Gruntilda drop the spell things got explosive. After watching the tank explode, Wario decided that if he stayed around, he'd end up like Gruntilda and left the battlefield, Bowser joined him shortly after a failed battle with Pete. While all this commotion was going on, Kefka convinced Kuja to join the fray. He did so but was easily disposed of by Jafar. Out of nowhere, Braig entered the battlefield. While he was easily defeated he claimed he was "buying time" and left. Meanwhile Master Xehanort found Princess Peach and absorbed her power. Using her power and the power from the other 6 princesses he was able to summon Kingdom Hearts over the battlefield and tried to absorb its power. Seeing that the ruse was up, Xehanort had Vanitas go and kill Tai Lung.
