Chapter 2 – The Beginning of the End
"HE'S SO CUTE!" Amy hugged the baby Sonic tightly.
"Ah! BWA!" Sonic squeeked.
"Amy! You're choking him!" Knuckles yelled.
"Oh sorry…" Amy slowly held the baby into her arms.
"Bwwww…" Sonic cooed
"Well, looky here. The ultimate life form is a baby! Aren't you the cutest thing I've EVER seen! Goojee goojee goojee goo~" Rouge said as she tickles Shadow. Shadow was laughing and suddenly stopped Rouge by hit her hand.
"Wha wappen?" Shadow was shocked all of the sudden.
"Wha? WHA! AH DAN'T TWALK WIGHT!" Shadow screamed.
"You're a baby, Shadow. Babies can't talk well." Luna said with a gentle tone.
Silver woke up and saw Blaze. Silver tilted his head a bit and asked, "Why you wigger?"
"I'm not bigger. You're the one who turned into a baby." Blaze said.
"Wange wee back!" Silver screamed.
"I can't, sorry."
Silver was sad about what Blaze said and started to cry.
"WAH!"
Blaze started to panic as she doesn't know who to calm a crying baby.
"Here! Let me help you." Amy gave Sonic to Tails and took Silver and started to calm him down.
"There, there. It's ok. We'll get you three back somehow."
"Let's head to my place! Maybe I can found out how to turn them back to normal." Tails said.
Therefore, everyone went to Tails' house. Tails took the babies into his lab to examine them.
-After a while-
Tails came out from the lab.
"So, Tails! You know how to change them back?" Knuckles asked.
"No… I found out that they turned into babies by magic and only the Chaos Emeralds can remove the magic like this." Tails explained.
"Then, we'll just collect the chaos emeralds. Luna, do you want to come too?" Espio asked.
"If that's fine with all of you." Luna said.
"Of course it's fine." Cream said.
"Chao!" Cheese chirped.
"Okay." Luna said,
"Let's go and look for them tomorrow morning, so we can have enough rests for tomorrow." Blaze suggested. Everyone agrees.
"Let's head back to the forest to have our walk." Charmy said.
Everyone head back to the forest to continue their afternoon walk. Amy held Sonic, Shadow sat on Omega's right hand and Blaze held Silver. They were chatting with each other until someone came. He was a hedgehog who looks like Shadow but the red stripes were grey, has green reptilian eyes and no mouth.
"Who is that?" Knuckles asked.
"Let me recall your memories. However, some of you may not know me after then." The hedgehog snapped his fingers and Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, Shadow, Rouge, Omega, Silver, Blaze and Amy remembered what happened months ago. The hedgehog was Mephiles the Dark.
"You again!" Knuckles shouted.
"Wa yu hear!" Silver said. (Why are you here?)
"What do you want, monster?" Blaze asked.
"Who is this? Do you guys know this guy?" Vector asked.
"Ah tho yu die!" Sonic yelled.
"Hmph! Look at those three babies. I have no idea they would be just target practice for me." Mephiles said.
"You turned them into babies?" Amy asked.
"Of course, to prevent them from stopping me from destroying the world from me." Mephiles said. "But I came here not to tell you that. I'm here to meet my old friend."
"Oh really, we're not your friends!" Knuckles said.
"Not you, idiot!"
Mephiles turned his sight to Luna and walked towards to gave her a hug. Everyone was surprised about this.
"Luna, it has been such a long time! It has been 10 years since we last met, and now your all grown up." Mephiles said.
"You know this guys, Luna?" Rouge asked.
"Um… no. I don't." Luna said,
"Not like this." Mephiles said as he turned into a fog of darkness. Luna quickly remembered who he is.
"Mephiles!" Luna went hugging Mephiles when he was returning his Shadow form.
"It's so good to see you again! I don't know you would look like Shadow. Are you two related or something?" Luna asked.
"NUUUU!" Shadow yelled.
"Wait a sec! Mephiles is your friend?" Tails asked.
"Yes! It's a long story but why you guys said he was a monster? He's very nice, and a scardycat." Luna said.
"He's nice? You got to be kidding me! Me and Silver came from the future to stop a disaster from happening. This guy told us to kill Sonic because he was the Iblis trigger. Even we didn't kill him, he did it on his own!" Blaze explained.
"He even asked Shadow to join him to destroy the human race." Rouge added.
"But that's impossible! Mephiles told me that he would want to see the world and play with me." Luna said.
"That was the old me. Now, I have power, I can protect you, Luna. I kept on warning Shadow but he just wouldn't listen!" Mephiles said.
"Protect her from what?" Espio asked.
"From the humans, of course! They will soon notice that you creatures are a danger to them and will destroy all of you! I'm just trying to protect you." Mephiles explained.
"No! You're wrong! The humans aren't that bad!" Rouge said.
"Yu stay awa frum hera!" Shadow said. (You stay away from her!)
"Luna, join me. I can protect you." Mephiles place his hand on Luna cheeks, making her blush.
"AH SAY STEE AWA FRO HERA!" Shadow yelled. (I said stay away from her.)
"Why are you so concerned about Luna, Shadow?" Mephiles asked.
"He's my boyfriend." Luna said.
"I see… well, I don't want you two to have a sad ending like Romeo and Juliet. I can protect you all if you join me."
"I don't know…" Luna said.
"Think about it. You are the moon and I am the night. The night is the darkness and the moon always appears in the darkness. They are together. With the moon, there are shadows in the darkness, with makes me, you and Shadow, a world only three of us." Mephiles said.
"Don't listen to him, Luna! Don't fall for it!" Amy warned her.
"Don't listen to THEM! The moon doesn't appear in the daylight! She only appears in the night!"
"But the moon is always around in the daylight, only she can't shine brightly since the sun is there." Luna explained.
"Exactly! The moon cannot show her potentials because the light is covering them. However, in the night, the darkness accepts you. Just like your so-call-friends, they won't see any good in you but only a nuisance." Mephiles continues.
"No! That's not true! You're a friend of ours! And we treasure you!" Cream said.
"Chao!" Cheese said.
"Hmm… come to think of it, I thought of a song that I want to sing. Wanna hear it?" Mephiles asked.
"We don't want to hear you singing!" Knuckles said.
"I'm not asking you, knucklehead. Luna?"
"What did you say?" Knuckles was furious.
"I guess so…" Luna said.
"I won't be singing it without music." Mephiles said.
"What do you want, then? Give you a radio or somethin'?" Vector asked.
"Not necessary." Mephiles hit Omega with a back energy, causing him to shut down.
"OWEGA!" Shadow yelled.
"What did you do?" Rouge asked.
Suddenly, Omega woke up but started playing some music. It started with some electronic guitar and drums.
"What has come over? What madness taken hold of my heart? To run away, the only answer. Pulling me away, to fall upon the night. The source of my recovery. Sweet Shadow taking hold of the light. Another day has been devoured. Calling me away, begging to question, why?"
"For saving me from all they've taken. Letting my armor fall again. Giving me the strength to face them. Feeling it taking over now! On a path to take it all away. There can be no better way of knowing, In a world beyond controlling. Are you going to deny the savior. In front of your eyes?"
"Stare into the night. Power beyond containing. Are you going to remain a slave, for the rest of your life? Give into the night!"
Then, some electronic guitar and drums continued to play.
"This self-discovery, redemption taking hold of my mind. This serenade of haunting voices, calling me away, to feast upon the night! The source of my felicity. Dark maiden taking hold of my hand, leading me away from hibernation. Strong and unafraid, never a question why!"
"For saving me from all they've taken. Letting my armor fall again. Giving me the strength to face them. Feeling it taking over now! On a path to take it all away. There can be no better way of knowing, In a world beyond controlling. Are you going to deny the savior, In front of your eyes?"
"Stare into the night. Power beyond containing. Are you going to remain a slave, for the rest of your life? Give into the night!"
Again, some epic music in the middle.
"Luna, think about it… What you will get when you join me… I can give you everything." Mephiles said.
"Give into the night. In a world beyond controlling. Are you going to deny the savior, in front of your eyes?
"Stare into the night. Power beyond controlling. Are you going to remain a slave, for the rest of your life? Give into the night!"
"Night, night, night! Give into the night! Night, night, night! Give into the night!"
As the song reaching its end, Mephiles walked closer to Luna. Luna walked backwards and tripped. Mephiles crouched down and give her his hand. Knuckles sensed that this wasn't good and in his fighting position.
"Give into the night!"
Luna was shocked about what just happened. The sky started to become clear again as the clouds went away. The music stopped.
"Well, Luna?" Mephiles asked.
"I…"
"No! Don't do it!" Amy yelled.
"LUNA!" Shadow yelled.
"Wah wah!" Silver yelled.
"You're not the Mephiles that I knew 10 years ago. I won't join you!" Luna yelled with tears.
"Hmph! You lost your chance. You all will soon PERISH! MUAHAHAHAHA!" Mephiles laughed. "This is just the beginning… of the end." Mephiles created a big purple orb and disappeared in it.
Luna was there, sitting, crying that her friend she knew 10 years ago, became a monster. Omega returned into his normal status.
"What has happened?" Omega asked.
"Mephiles turned you into a music box." Vector said.
Shadow got off of Omega's hand and crawled to the sad and crying hedgehog and hugged her.
Luna : I'm crying!
Shadow: We know...
Me : Be nice to your girlfriend!
