Sora, Donald, and Goofy are fighting their way through the tournament. The amount of Heartless that are competing makes them realize they need to find the world's Keyhole. In their next match, they are easily defeated by Cloud, who then questions Hades's motives. Realizing his plan is going wrong, Hades sends Cerberus to the arena, who takes out Cloud. As it preprares to attack Sora, Hercules appears and keeps it busy so the others can run away.
