Chapter 1
"Silver! Pay attention! You can't be a Seawing prince by zoning out during class! Now, show me a battle move!" a blue fox yelled at a silver hedgehog standing in front of him. The silver hedgehog grinned.
Ha. Battle move? I'm the best in the tribe when it comes to battle moves! If you want battle moves, I'll give you battle moves!
Silver the Hedgehog jumped up into the air. He grabbed an object with his animus powers and made it levitate in the air. While the blue fox (Donomin) was focusing on that, Silver grabbed him with his powers. Silver threw Donomin across the room. He grunted as he made contact with the wall and then the floor. He weakly stood up.
"Fine job Silver. I expected no less from my son. Let's go tell your mother how you are doing! By the way, how are you feeling?" Donomin asked.
"A little cold, but okay," Silver replied following his father.
The two of them walked through a bunch of rooms. They passed a bunch of other people of the Seawing tribe as they walked. They were soon walking into a large open room with a throne at the end. On that throne was a light pink hedgehog that had long straight hair. Her golden eyes were much like Silver's. Queen Rachael was her name. She was with Silver's sister Jewelia the Racoon and his daughter Vala the Cat. Vala was married to Spike the Hedgehog and they had two children. They were Sonic and Amy. Donomin married Rachael to make this all so. The two hedgehogs approached the queen.
"Greetings husband. What news do you have on our son?" asked Rachael. She looked over at Silver who was greeting his sister and daughter.
"Great as usual! You could put him on the front line of a battle field and he still won't get a scratch," Donomin remarked. The queen nodded approvingly.
How delightful! Well, Jewelia, have you found someone who's willing to remake the Summer Palace? It's too easily seen and boring! Other tribes might attack us! Did you find anyone?" asked Rachael.
"Well…, I did find one person. He gave me this blueprint. You probably won't like it…," Jewelia answered handing her the paper. Rachael read it over. Within two seconds of looking at it, she shrieked.
"It's horrible! It was pure chaos! Why would they even dare to let me see this!" demanded the queen in an outrage.
"It was all I could-"
"Silence!" she bellowed.
"Um…, Excuse me mother, but I made a blueprint last night that you might like. My wife, Blaze, came up with the design herself. I actually think that it will really improve the place. Same for the mood," Silver explained.
"Whoa…," Vala said as she stared at the picture. Everyone else said the same after she did.
"Okay, is it really good or really bad?" asked Silver nervously.
"It's gorgeous honey! I love it! The platforms are a nice touch and the decor will leave all of our guests in awe! Plus, nobody will be able to see it from above. Great job Silver! I expected nothing less from my son and daughter-in-law." Rachael turned to Jewelia excitedly. "Can you get the person you found to do this?"
"Trust me. He's WAY too lazy. He'd sooner become Skywing than finish this!" Jewelia pointed out. Rachael glared at her.
"Well, he'd better do it! If he doesn't, then bring me his head on a silver platter!" snapped Rachael. Jewelia nodded nervously and left. The queen slumped down in her throne now looking kind of depressed.
"How important is this Summer Palace?" asked Silver.
"Very important to me and the other Seawings. If we don't get it done by Friday, there won't be a Summer Palace! That's why I'm getting so worked up about it," Rachael explained to Silver.
Silver sympathized for his mother. It must have been tough, being queen and all, to run the tribe without much help. Maybe he could help her out with the Summer Palace problem.
I'm animus for Pete's sake! It's not like I'm gonna kill anyone, right?
So, that night, SIlver snuck out to the place the Summer Palace was going to be. He looked around at the place curiously. He stood in the center of the large room. He focussed his powers and thought about the design. Slowly, the room began to form into the design on the blueprint Blaze made. A large staircase leading to many platforms were created. Silver used the large plants around him to help make the platforms. Everything was going smoothly until he felt a chill in his heart. It steadily grew worse as he continued to use his power. Silver couldn't stop now! He had already started! Silver was stuck in the position he was in for twenty minutes perfecting the Summer Palace. The underwater tunnel, the throne, the walls, the hatcheries! All he could do was scream in pain as the palace all came together.
Finally, Silver stopped, exhausted. He looked around for a millisecond at what he had made. Then, he collapsed onto the floor feeling something in his heart he had never felt before. HATE.
In his sleep, he had a dream. A dream where his soul was gone and all that was left of him was evil. A dark voice spoke to him in his head.
You don't want to be around them… What did they do for you? All they ever did was work you to the bone. Even Blaze. Nobody cares about you. Nothing is worth living for anymore. That's why the world must be punished…
The voice continued to ring in his head. The more he listened, the more he agreed. Silver awoke with the voice officially in complete control of him. Nothing was left of good Silver anymore.
As Silver opened his eyes, a crowd of screaming fans began to cheer for him. Silver stood up groggily. He looked at his mother who beamed at him.
"Astounding work sweety! I'm so proud of you! Look at all the other Seawings who think so too! You're a star!" Rachael told him.
Silver didn't like it. He loathed it. Faster than a flash of lightning, he flipped around and used his powers to kill the queen with a stab. She screeched in pain, but that was it. She was dead.
The audience screamed in terror and fled from the silver hedgehog in terror. They watched as he killed left and right. Vala, Blaze, Spike, Jewelia, and Donomin. Three random people and a guard as well! Finally, after a long minute and a half, a guard finished Silver with a spear. Everyone slowly began to return when they realized that it was over. A guard stood in front of them. Amy and Sonic scurried to the top platform with the throne to get a better view.
"We mourn the death of our queen and the rest who died, but we must put the past behind us. Vala was supposed to take the throne next, but she too has been killed. All hail Queen Amy Rose," the soldier said pointing at Amy on the top platform. She looked down at her new kingdom.
"Congrats Amy…," Sonic said still stunned from what had happened. His eyes had lost their liveliness that they usually had.
"Thanks Sonic, but I think that now I must give them a speech." Amy stepped up as she said this.
Greetings tribe of the Seawings, I'm proud to be your new queen, but I must take responsibilities into my own hands. Silver has caused great pain and sorrow today, but we can't change what has already happened. Silver must have had a reason for this! I believe that t was his animus powers! He was using them way too much! It must've started to eat away at his soul turning him evil. To make sure that this doesn't happen again, I would like for all animus people in this tribe to see me before they do anything else. It's important that we are safe," Amy finished and stepped down. Sonic nodded and clapped for her. Her speech was pretty good for such a young queen.
"I think I'm the only animus hedgehog in this tribe," Sonic told her. Amy nodded to him.
"That makes things easier for me then. I need you to make a promise to me! Repeat after me. 'I promise by Queen Amy's command to never use my powers again. Under no circumstances will I ever use my powers for the sake of me and my tribe,'" Amy told him. Sonic nodded.
"I promise by Queen Amy's command to never use my animus powers ever again. Under no circumstances will I ever use my animus powers for the sake of me and my tribe," Sonic mimicked sincerely.
"I like that you added the word animus. Okay, on to cleaning up. We had about ten murders in the Summer Palace! Now their bodies are just lying there! Guards, get rid of this mess before the stench sinks permanently into the floor!" snapped Amy.
"Yes, my queen!" they replied quickly.
Amy sighed and sat on her new throne. She looked back over at Sonic who was standing there with something clearly on his mind.
"Hopefully we can just move on with our lives after this! Is there anything else you wanted to show me?" asked Amy to Sonic. Sonic nodded and handed her a note. It had a red Nightwing seal on it. The seal was only used by the Nightwing queen. Amy allowed a look of interest flicker in her eyes.
"Do you know what it's for?" asked Amy. She was really interested when Sonic shook his head no. She opened it up.
"I'll read it to you okay?" asked Amy. Sonic nodded.
"'Dear Seawing queen, it's been a while since us Nightwings have ever done anything with the Seawings, but we have a major problem and could use your assistance. A lot of our Nightwings have special powers thanks to the moons, but we fear that some of our future Nightwings may have a little trouble controlling their powers. One in particular actually, who we are certain has animus powers, prophetic powers, and mind-reading powers. If you have any animus Seawings who could help us, send them right away. We fear the future of our tribe with a Nightwing with so much power among us. He/She might try to use his/her powers for reasons we don't want to encounter. Please, help us. Help Shadow. From, the Nightwing queen,'" Amy finished.
Sonic knew that he was the only animus Seawing left. If anyone was going to go, it would be him. He thought deeply about it. The answer was staring at him in the face though. Amy knew his answer. She stood up and hugged him tightly.
"I must go. They need me. The Nightwing with all this power needs me. I'll be fine," Sonic insisted to his sister. She fought back tears.
"I… know…, but you can't leave me now! Not after the rest of my family was killed!" wept Amy. "You know how I feel right?" She Sonic a look of sadness that he'd never be able to match. He sighed.
"Yes, I know. I lost my family, my home, my culture, and it'll all be replaced by Nightwings. Although, I know that it's the right thing to do. Who knows! Maybe I'll make lots of friends and make the Nightwings the Seawing allies! Think about that while I'm gone. Remember, I'll always remember and love you Amy Rose. Even if I don't come back, I'll remember," Sonic told he soothingly. They reluctantly parted.
"I will remember too… No matter how long it takes, I will await your return Sonic the Hedgehog…," Amy said staring deep into Sonic's green eyes. Sonic began to run down the stairs. He hated goodbyes.
"I'll see you who knows when!" Sonic yelled when he was at the tunnel to the outside. Amy took a deep breath and waved one last time to her brother.
"So long, Sonic…," Amy mumbled to herself as he left through the tunnel to an adventure with the Nightwings in a far away camp that didn't belong to the Seawings. To become friends with a person who could destroy the world with his power one day. She shoved the thought from her mind. She was queen now. Sonic had made the promise. He should be fine. Should be…
