Halloween with the birds

Chapter 2 of the 10 part series

~An unlikely hero~

It was a usual day for Station Square and our favorite blue blur was currently dashing through the streets, looking for Halloween stuff. After all, Halloween was due in 5 day's time and to Sonic it was short for he was gonna make a Halloween party. Invitations were sent and nearly everyone was invited, including Eggman. At last, he found a shop selling scary dolls.

"Ho ho ho!I'm going to catch that hedgehog!" said one of the eggman's dolls as Sonic passed by. It was truly like the evil scientist's voice. However, Sonic was not fooled. There were Tails Doll's dolls of course, which were really frightening and life-like. "Can you feel the sunshine?" a voice whispered behind Sonic's back. Our hero and all of the customers turned as white as Tails' fur. The doll's eyes began emitting a reddish glow and the gem on top of its head started flashing red lights. Was this the real Tails Doll?

However, there was one person who wasn't afraid. It was the shop owner! He was laughing his head off. When everyone realized it was a trick, they heaved a sigh of relief and snatched the Tails Doll's dolls at a speedy rate. Sonic was about to buy when he heard strange noise behind him again. When he turned around, his eyes nearly popped out. THE REAL TAILS DOLL!

But this real Tails Doll was different from its usual body. It had a gigantic talon-like claw to replace one of its hand and he held a sharp razor blade, much like Erazor's, on the other gloved hand. It had a bigger body than usual, and had a bloody red third eye. "Allow me to introduce myself. I, am Alf-Devil Tails Doll! Ha ha ha ha." The latter hissed in a frightening tone. By now, nearly everyone had fainted. Sonic was frozen to the ground through fear. He wanted to scream, but try as he might, he could not.

Just as Alf-Devil Tails Doll was about to curse the hedgehog, a chaos-charged purple orb broke the curse. Alf-Devil Tails Doll evaporated into an orange smoke and disappeared. Our blue blur turned to see his saver, which was an unlikely hero.

"Mephiles The Dark! Why did you save me?" Sonic exclaimed in upmost surprise. "Sonic, only you and your friends can kill this scary threat. No one else can, not even Lord Nazo. Tails Doll has joined forces with Black Doom and Erazor Djinn. Please, kill this threat and save the world." Mephiles replied in a somewhat pleading tone. "But, why is the doll alive again? And,

would you be good after it is gone?" Sonic questioned, still shocked after the earlier events. "I will answer the first question." The dark being said monotonously.

*Flashback*

"Mephiles, come here." Nazo summoned the dark being into the throne room. They had resided in a dark dimension ever since Mephiles joined Nazo.

"Yes, my lord?" Mephiles kneeled down in front of his lord. "My loyal servant, a new threat has arisen. Black Doom and Erazor Djinn, our arch-enemy, has revived one of the most horrific things in the universe. I need you to kill this threat before it gets worse." Nazo commanded.

"And what is this new threat we face?" Mephiles questioned.

"The Tails Doll. Something Eggman created. It can curse anything and so, if Doom or Erazor use it to curse us, we will be doomed. Kill it now, it is at Haunted Doll Lane." The god of darkness replied. "Yes, my lord." Mephiles bowed before disappearing with the help of "Chaos Control."

The dark being landed on the ghastly place and began to search for his target. Meanwhile, there had being a lot of shuffling noises made by the crates. Mephiles managed to witness a green sprit floating down, carrying a load of noisy birds squawking for help. He crouched behind a bush and looked for signs of his target.

The green sprit touched the ground, found a large crate and placed the birds into it. Mephiles heard it chuckle something like:"Ho ho. King Pig, Erazor and Black Doom will be pleased. These birds...they contain the power of the Chaos Emeralds, they will bring us great power, for their anger fuels our dark power!" After that, the green sprit evaporated into a green smoke and vanished.

The shuffling noise for the crates got louder and louder. Suddenly, a crate opened. "Time for my food! Ha ha ha!" Tails Doll appeared from the crate. His appearance was like that of Alf-Devil form, which puzzled Mephiles a lot. When the doll was near. Mephiles strike it from its back. The doll had blood dripping from its shoulder, but just as Mephiles thought his mission was complete, Tails Doll turned around and gripped him. It sunk its claw into Mephiles, and he yelled out in pain. The doll sickeningly drank Mephiles' blood(yes he has blood) and our unlikely hero dropped to the ground, unconscious. Tails Doll then tossed him into the pile of crates before returning to his grave.

5 hours later, Mephiles woke up and found himself to weak to move. However, he remembered that Nazo would send Scourge, a recent dark ruler, to help him if Mephiles was in any danger. The dark being slumped into unconscious state once again for he was too weak.

*End Of Flashback*

"For my 2nd question, that depends on my lord." Mephiles answered our blue blur before handing the yellow Chaos Emerald. He left without a word through a portal of darkness. Sonic sped back to his house immediately to tell his friends this frightful news.

Meanwhile, the birds found themselves stuck in Station Square. They spotted Sonic, but could not keep up with him as he left the birds in a cloud of dust. "No, we missed the chance to tell him." Red bird said with a hint of sadness.

Mephiles is working with the heroes to destroy this new threat. Will Tails Doll curse everything in his path? Will the Angry Birds find Sonic? Find out in the next chapter.
