*Read the Team Sky origins: Star the Cat first to get this. After you have, then you can continue to understand this…*
Star, a blue, 11 year old cat, seemed to run in the direction where Forest was. He was fighting Iblis. She had missed almost the whole fight. Iblis had Forest pretty much beaten. Star saw a small attack coming. It was the same attack that killed her father. Star shoved the weak hedgehog out of the way. Iblis missed the green, 12 year old hedgehog. Star sighed as she was overjoyed the hedgehog was alright. She used an ice blast to defeat Iblis. Iblis roared in pain, and it sank back into the lava.
Star looked around, and got off of Forest, angrily. She jabbed a ruin, almost crying.
"THIS ISNT WORKING!" she exclaimed.
"All he'll do is rise from his ashes again…and we can't do a thing about it…"
Star turned and saw a shady hedgehog. It looked like her uncle, Shadow. But it wasn't him. Forest looked around as well, seeing the same hedgehog, and trying to stand up. The hedgehog walked towards them.
"You want what I want…" it whispered. The hedgehog came closer. "Same as me…you want the flames gone as well…" it kept whispering as it got closer. Star hugged Forest as the figure got closer.
"Wh-who are you?" Forest demanded. The figure walked up to Forest's face.
"I am Mephiles…Mephiles the Dark…" the hedgehog whispered. He somehow smirked, though, he had no mouth. Star stood back a few steps, and hid behind Forest.
"What do you want?" The green hedgehog demanded. Mephiles gave a laugh, and sighed.
"What you want…to be free of these flames…" He explained. He then gave a glare at Star.
"And…your cooperation…" Mephiles stated as he held a hand out to the cat.
"Together, we can destroy these flames once and for all…and return peace to Mobius…" The grey hedgehog explained.
"All you have to do…is trust me…" he evilly assured. Star's mind was racing, and she looked at the flames, sick almost instantly.
Star carefully took Mephiles's hand, and shook it. Mephiles laughed maniacally, and calmed down.
"Here…I shall lead you to my base…" he explained as he let go of Star's hand. The cat took Forest's hand, and followed Mephiles to his base.
Forest looked back at the flames, and then Mephiles. Somehow, he thought they made a deal with the devil.
