Mushu | Mushu survived the destruction of his world, The Land of Dragons, and became a Summon Gem. After the death of [[Maleficent]] in her Dragon form, the [[Fireglow]] Gem is left behind.

Mushu is [[Mulan]]'s guardian in The Land of Dragons, one of the first worlds [[Sora]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], and [[Goofy]] visit. Mushu is mistook for a [[Heartless]] at first due to his giant shadow cast on a rock. He is shocked to see his old friends in his world and introduces Mulan to them and explains her situation. Mushu's attempts to teach Mulan to act like a soldier aren't very good, making her walk oddly and even contributing to a brawl starting. Later, he then tells Mulan that he saw [[Shan-Yu]] in a cave which turns out to be a trap. | |||
Mushu accompanies Mulan, Sora and the others to the icy mountains when they are attacked by Shan-Yu and his army of Heartless. Mulan sees a way to defeat the army by causing an avalanche. She grabs a missile, lights it with Mushu and then launches it to a nearby mountain, Mushu accidentally going with it. He later returns and accidentally gives Mulan's identity away to [[Li Shang|Captain Shang]] who leaves her behind. Mushu dreads returning to face his fellow spirits, but knows he must. Shan Yu and a few Heartless reveal to have survived the avalanche and head for the Imperial City to capture [[the Emperor]]. The heroes race to save the Emperor and defeat Shan-Yu. Mushu blurts out to the group unintentionally he is actually not a guardian anymore and is chased by Sora in a fit of rage. | |||
Mushu returns during Sora's second visit to help battle the [[Storm Rider]] Heartless. | |||
