Rocket's POV

I was leading the others through the halls of the temple we were in. I stopped when I saw something promising on one of the walls. "What is it," Wave asked. "I don't know. It's too dark," I replied. Storm looked around for a light and saw an unlit torch. He grabbed it and walked over to Blaze. "Think you can light this," he asked. "Sure," Blaze replied before lighting the torch. Storm then walked back over to me and held the torch up. "Is this good enough, boss," he asked. "It is, actually. Thanks," I replied. I then looked over the pictures on the wall. "What is it," Blaze asked as she walked over to me. "There's a falcon over what looks like Station Square. I also see a mirror reflection of Station Square and four hedgehogs. One looks like he's controlling the air around him. Another looks like she can control water. Another looks like he can control fire and the final one can control earth," I said looking at the pictures. "Interesting. Looks like whoever made all this knew something about the future," Blaze said. "Or maybe something about future fanfiction an author's planning," I added. I then led the others down through the hall where I heard something. I looked around and saw nothing. "I could've sworn I heard something," I muttered to myself. Right above us, a creature was lurking and watching us, waiting for the most opportune moment to strike.

We came to an area that had four paths to choose from. "Which way do we go," Wave asked. "Let's see. There's about twelve of us, so we have to split into groups of three and go each way," I replied. "I'll take Tails and Knuckles and go down that way," Sonic said pointing to the path on the left. "I'll take Shadow and Espio and go down that way," Rouge said pointing to the path next to Sonic's path. "I'll take Silver and Amy and go that way," Blaze said pointing to the center path. "And I'll take my team and go that way," I said pointing to the path on the right. All of us split up and went our separate paths.


Blaze's POV

I was leading Silver and Amy down the path I had picked. My ears perked up, so I turned around to find nothing. "What is it," Silver asked. "Nothing. I just thought I heard something," I replied. We kept walking when, out of nowhere, two unknown creatures grabbed Silver and I. "Amy, save yourself. Run," Silver said before he disappeared. I saw Amy turn around and run before she could end up like us.


Shadow's POV

Rouge was leading Espio and I down the path she had chosen. I looked around and saw nothing that looked dangerous. I spotted something flash by, but thought nothing of it. Suddenly, a creature came out and grabbed Espio. "Somebody help," he said. It was futile to help him and he disappeared. "Come on," Rouge said as she turned around and ran. I turned around and followed her out.


Sonic's POV

I led Tails and Knux down the path I picked. Tails, Knuckles, and I looked around for any danger but found nothing. "There's nothing bad around here," Knux said before he was grabbed by an unknown creature. Tails was next to be grabbed and I made a run for the exit.


Rocket's POV

Wave and I were running from a creature that grabbed Storm and came back to where all of split up. I stopped to catch my breath when I heard Amy screaming. "Rose, calm down and tell me what happened," I said. "Two creatures grabbed Blaze and Silver," she replied. I felt like I had my heart ripped out upon hearing Blaze wound up like Storm. "Oh, man. Blaze's gone," I said. "It's alright. You'll see her again," Wave said. "Somebody help," Sonic said as he came over to us. "What happened," Amy asked. "Two things grabbed Tails and Knuckles," he replied. "The same thing happened to Espio," Shadow said as he and Rouge came over to us. "How could you just leave me out there," Jet asked as he walked up to us. Behind him was Cosmo, Vector, Charmy, Cream, Cheese, Maria, and Chip. "What's going on? Where's Tails," Cosmo asked. "It's not exactly good," I replied. I explained what happened to Tails, Knuckles, Espio, Blaze, Silver, and Storm. When I finished, Cosmo had a sad expression on her face. "It's all right. We'll get him back," I promised. My ears perked up, so I turned around and saw more of the creatures. "Come on! We gotta move," I ordered. All of us then ran off before we could be grabbed.
