'''Chapter 21: Beneath the Snow''' is the twenty-first chapter in the ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts II|manga}}'' manga.
==Synopsis==
The Imperial army survives the avalanche, though Shan-Yu and his Heartless army do not, instead buried beneath the snow. As the men celebrate their victory and congratulations with Ping, her true identity is revealed. Chi-Fu orders Mulan's death, but Sora counters, claiming that they would be dead if it weren't for Mulan. Chi-Fu leaves Mulan's fate to the captain, who nullifies his previous debt to her. The Imperial army leaves for the Imperial city, leaving Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Mulan behind. As the trio argues over how this could have been prevented, Mulan worries over how she can approach her father now. Back towards the mountain peak it is revealed that Shan-Yu has survived the avalanche. He summons the Storm Rider and flies towards the Imperial city. Sora and the others follow in pursuit, determined to warn Shang.


==Story==
In the Imperial city, The Emperor acknowledges Shang's successful operation. Suddenly, a man dressed in a hooded black coat appears, warning The Emperor of an impending Heartless attack. The Imperial city is evacuated just as Shan-Yu begins his assault. As Sora and the others enter the city, they pass the hooded figure. Prioritizing Shan-Yu and the Heartless threat first, the group leaves the figure behind. Once reunited with the army, Shang gives Sora a [[paopu fruit]], stating that the hooded figure from earlier told him to give it to Sora. Sora deduces that the cloaked figure from before was Riku.
[[Sora]] and the others dig themselves out of the snow to find the enemy completely wiped out. As the army celebrates, they notice [[Mulan]] got hurt, and [[Li Shang]] prepares to take a look at the injury. [[Mushu]] looks forward to regaining his job as family guardian, when Mulan's true identity is revealed. [[The Emperor's Adviser]] tells Li Shang to execute her, but he refuses as repayment for saving his life. As the army leaves, Sora, [[Donald]], [[Goofy]], Mulan, and Mushu remain behind. Elsewhere on the mountain, [[Shan-Yu]] emerges from the snow and summons the [[Storm Rider]], riding it towards the royal palace. Sora and the other spot him, and rush to the city to warn the people there.


In the palace, [[The Emperor]] praises Li Shang for his success. Suddenly, they hear a commotion and a man in a [[black coat]] walks in. Li Shang tries to stop him, but gets shoved aside. The man approaches the Emperor and warns him about the Storm Rider. When Shan-Yu arrives at the city, he finds it deserted, and the army fires cannons at the Storm Rider. Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Mulan arrive at the city on Mulan's horse, when they pass the man in the black coat, causing Sora to believe [[Organization XIII]] was behind the attack. However, when they get to Li Shang, he gives Sora a [[paopu fruit]], saying the man in the black coat told him to give that to Sora, and Sora concludes the man in the black coat must be [[Riku]].
