Hello everyone, I'm back again with the next act of Chapter 2. This whole idea came from someone who recommended me to do this because my chapters are pretty long. Thanks Someone for this to happen!


About forty minutes later, Ivory landed on the sand and had woken up Shadow) "Ugh, I was having a dream about Maria, are we at the desert?" Shadow asked. "Yes, its time to wake everyone up." Ivory said. (The two had awaken everyone up, they exited out into the hot sand) "So this is Shy Guy Desert." Amy said. Chao. "Yes, and who are you?" Blaze asked. "I'm Lighting the Hedgehog." Lighting said. "Lets head to the best place, Bazaar City." Blaze explained. "Yes, come on Cream." Tails said. "Right with you Tails, come on Cheese!" Cream yelled. "Chao chao." Cheese said (Tails, Cream, and Cheese started to fly up in the sky) "Careful Rouge." Knuckles said. "You've go it Knux, tag your it!" Rouge said. "Hey, get back here!" Knuckles yelled. (And Knuckles was running after Rouge) "We best do the same, lets go Amy." Peach said. "I'll do my best, lets find the city!" Luigi said. "Lets follow them, come on Tiffany!" Mario said. "Right away Mario, come here green guy, and big brother." Tiffany said. "We don't want to loose you again, come on Bowser, and two princesses." Shade said. "Thank you Shade, lets find the city!" Daisy said. (She ran off) "Wait Daisy!" Peach said. "Hey, wait for me!" Silver yelled. (Amy, Mario, Tiffany, Shade, Luigi, Bowser, Daisy, Peach, and Silver were following the others, all that were left was Ivory, Shadow, Lighting, Blaze, and Ivory's three chao) "So what should we do?" Lighting asked. "Well, follow them, lets get moving." Blaze said. Right! Chao chao chao! (The five followed the others and after many miles, they all found a wandering Shy Guy who was wearing brown and tan colored rags) "How many miles are left till we make it to Bazaar City?" Mario asked. "Ah Mario, so your heading to the city, so we meet again dark blue one." The Shy Guy said. "Arid, is it you?" Lighting asked. "Ah, it's a surprise, and you must all be his friends, here let me help you, this is the way to go." Arid said. (He showed the team the way to the city, after another five miles, they made it to the outskirts of the city and get reunited with everyone) "Thank you Arid, we will visit you shop, but can you get our helicopter?" Lighting asked. "Yes, be sure to get information of the city, farewell for now." Arid said. (Arid grabbed out a flute and disappeared) "Lets get inside of the city." Silver said. (They made it inside of Bazaar City) "So this is the city?" Ivory asked. "Yes, I'll tell you later how I met Arid, lets see if we can find any information to find the key." Lighting said. "Yes, the Sand Key." Blaze said. "So where can I find the best jewelry in this city?" Rouge asked. "No Rouge, we need to find the Sand Key, lets take a look inside this market, we'll catch up later." Shadow said. "Careful Shadow, we'll take a look in this shop, its time to split up. Silver said. (Everyone entered into the market, while Knuckles, Tails, Blaze, and Ivory left to go into a bazaar) "Chao chao." Devil said. "Yes Devil, why don't you take a look up in the sky while we find information." Ivory said. Chao. (Angel, Devil, and Light flew up into the sky) "Take care." Ivory said. "So Blaze, where should we look?" Knuckles asked. "Maybe right here." Someone said. (They looked and saw Rose on top of a building with Metal Sonic) "Rose, so we meet again." Blaze said. "Hello Blaze, are you ready for me to smack you down?" Rose asked. "Yes, but your going to get smacked instead." Blaze said . "So be it, Metal Sonic, attack the others, I'll handle the cat." Rose said. (The fights began. Rose and Blaze instantly used a wave of fire and plants, while the waves were burning and reflecting, Metal Sonic was about to rush into Blaze. Knuckles ran into Metal Sonic and punched it in the face. Tails jumped from a building, flew, and smacked Metal Sonic with his tails, Ivory burrowed into the ground. when Metal Sonic fell, Ivory rose up and was kicking Metal Sonic multiple times. Knuckles and Tails were going to help Blaze, but Rose saw them and made vines wrap around them. Blaze turned her body into a fireball, the wave Blaze created was getting more stronger, and the flames were melting Rose's plants. When the fire was about to burn Rose, she created a plant shield and reflected the fire. Ivory had finished kicking Metal Sonic and did a Swipe Kick. Blaze noticed Metal Sonic was dragging its face on the sand and did a backwards jump and started to turn herself into a fire tornado and was rushing towards Rose who still had the shield up. Blaze rushed into Rose's shield as Ivory was running towards the trapped Knuckles and Tails. The two were punching the vines and Ivory was doing a spin dash. Blaze was still twirling and then increased her power and she shattered the shield and rammed into Rose. She and Metal Sonic was caught in the flames and Rose was getting burn marks on her body. After Blaze had cooled down, she walked over to Rose) "So Rose, how are you feeling?" Blaze asked. "Gah, I lost to you, very nice fight, but me and Metal Sonic must go back to the Dictator." Rose explained. "Wait, Rose, where's Sonic being held?" Ivory asked. "Sonic, you mean the Blue Blur, you need to head over to the location of the Sand Key, me and Metal Sonic must go, thank you for the fight, farewell." Rose said. (She got up and used her power and created a flower, she grabbed Metal Sonic and was about to escape. Ivory was running towards her, but plants rose up and the two escaped) "Darn, we let them get away." Ivory said. "Well at least you tried." Tails said. "Thank you Tails, so where should we get help finding the Sand Key." Ivory said. "Excuse me Ivory, what did you mean Sonic's being held?" Blaze asked. (After Tails explained everything to Blaze, they entered into the bazaar where Amy and others were) "Maps, get maps to other places!" Someone said. "Jewelry, here are necklaces, rings, and golden coins!" Someone #2 said. "Man they're so loud here." Ivory said. "Well they have to tell you what there saying, oof!" Knuckles explained. "Watch it, oh hey Knuckles, did you find anything?" Silver asked. "Nope, we just fought against Rose." Tails explained. "So that's her name, where are the chao?" Amy asked. "There up in the sky." Ivory explained. "I see that you are wanders." A Shy Gal said. Huh? (They saw a Shy Gal, it wore light brown clothes) "Um yes we are, do you know a way to find the Sand Key?" Cream asked. "Shh, please come this way." The Shy Gal said. (They followed the Shy Gal.

They were led into a store and closed the door) "So why do you need the Sand Key?" The Shy Gal asked. "We need it to help Sonic the Hedgehog." Tiffany explained. "Are you always alone?" Tails asked. "No fox, my husband Arid just brought a helicopter on to the roof." Arid's wife said. "So you're his wife?" Amy asked. "Yes, don't bother him, I'll get the map to the Temple of Sand, in the meantime, find anything you can see." Arid's wife said. (She left the others to read books) "Ivory, why not get everyone to come here." Blaze said "Yes, you guys can rest in the meantime." Ivory said. (She left the shop to find everyone. Blaze noticed a brown book with a red jewel) "This book, it might contain something." Blaze said. "What does it say Blaze?" Tails asked. "The desert was ounce eternal, travelers had to cross the harshness of sandstorms. People thought that it was unlikeable to live in the desert, but then, there was an entire group of Shy Guys and Gals. The leader had a dream, the dream was an empire rising from the sand, revealing a place to live. After the person had the dream, he told his people that there was a new home for them, he had found an ancient key. It asked for one wish, the leader replied that he wanted an empire for his people, so the key used its power and large amounts of sandstone appeared. After twenty years, the city was complete, over the time, it was becoming an empire. They honored the key for the city and built a temple for it to be placed. After becoming a true empire, trade became plentiful and many were happy. Until one day, the harsh sandstorms appeared, ravaging everything. The leader asked the key why must his people suffer, and it didn't answer as all of his people died from drowning or choking in sand. The empire fell into sand, all the survivors built a pyramid to protect the key. They called item the Sand Key." Blaze read. "Good work girl, you found the map." Arid's wife said. "But it's a book, is this why the Sand Key was never found?" Blaze asked. "Yes, my ancestor was a survivor of the sand, now turn the page." Arid's wife told. (Blaze turned the page around and saw a map to the pyramid. She kept looking through the pages and a while later, Ivory brought everyone to the shop) "Hey Blaze, did you find anything?" Cream asked. "Yes, the map it's right here." Blaze said. "Great job Blaze." Silver said. "Your welcome Silver, now we have to find the key, (Blaze closes the book) through the sands." Blaze said. (The team began their journey by exiting out into the sand.

After man miles of trekking, they made it to the pyramid, it had four Shy Guys statues holding onto golden scarabs) "So what do we do now?" Peach asked. "Just wait, ounce the moon reaches up to the sky, Silver and I have to use our powers." Blaze explained. (Blaze was right, the sun fell and the moon rose up, the was a laser and it went flying towards the scarabs, they all started to glow. Blaze created a ball of fire and Silver used his powers and threw the fire into the horns of the scarabs. The door started to open and everyone entered into the pyramid) "Wow, I never knew we had to do that." Bowser said. "Yes, I read the pages of the book carefully and it said that a heart of fire and mind must ignite the scarabs." Blaze explained. "Whoa, are you seeing this Light?" Tiffany asked. "Chao!" Light said. "Yes, what do you think Cheese?" Cream asked. Chao. "Many things to find, I'm ready to find the treasure." Rouge said. "Hold it Rouge, we just need to find the Sand Key." Mario said. "Fine, ruin a girl's fun." Rouge said. (They made it to the entire empire that was empty of sand) "Wow, now this is a place!" Bowser said. "We need to find the Sand Key, we have to stay together." Luigi said. (While they began their trek through the hidden ruins, Darkness was watching) "I guess I have to cut in, but not without having fun." Darkness thought (The team made it to the buildings, they looked inside and found old bread, silks, tablets that everyone couldn't read. They left the houses and entered into the royal gardens. They found shattered glass, some dead plants, nothing important. So they headed to the ancient palace, they found pots, silks,Koopa bones, crowns, pillows. Shadow had to stop Rouge from picking anything up, so they headed outside) "Darn, we couldn't find anything." Ivory said. "Why did you stop me Shadow?" Rouge asked. "Well Rouge, were supposed to find the key, not anything else." Shadow said. "So Luigi, what should we do?" Mario asked. "I don't know Mario, maybe Peach or Daisy can tell." Luigi asked. "Nope." Peach said. "Nope, hey why is the ground shaking?" Daisy asked. Uh oh. (The floor shattered, everyone fell except Lighting, Cream, Cheese, Tails, Rouge, Bowser, and the three chao) "What just happened?" Knuckles asked. "Princess Peach, are you okay?" Bowser asked. "Yes, Bowser, can you get down here?" Peach asked. "Cheese, lets get down there." Cream said. Chao. "Alright chao, lets help everybody." Lighting said. Chao chao chao! (They all jumped into the hole, they found everyone alright, Lighting ran to Ivory) "Is everyone okay?" Lighting asked. "Yes Lighting, were fine, now what is this place, Blaze?" Ivory asked. "This must be the shelter when the sandstorm erupted, look!" Blaze said. (They all found a key made of sand) "The Sand Key!" Everyone said. (They had started to rush towards the key. But a dark energy constricted everyone) "Did I miss the party?" Darkness asked. "Darkness, who are you really?" Ivory asked. "What are you talking about, I'm my own self." Darkness explained. "Lies, just let go of us and I'll show you the truth!" Lighting shouted. "No, I want you to fight against the guardian." Darkness said. (He touched the ground with his fist and a circle surrounded everyone and they all fell through, luckily, the darkness that was binding them disappeared and all of the characters fell into a sea of sand) "Drat, I hate him! " Ivory yelled. (A dark green aura was surrounding Ivory) "Be calm Ivory, just let him go, he will attack us later, huh?" Knuckles asked. (Everyone saw Lighting's fists are charging up with electricity) "What is it Lighting?" Mario asked. "It's, my power charging up, there's a large amount of energy, I feel it, in the center of the sand." Lighting said. (Lighting was right, as an ancient Sand Blooper rose up and started to attack. Peach was hit and she started to cry massive amounts of tears. The Sand Blooper was melting as it was getting hit by tears. It was about to grab Peach, but lighting got in the way and was caught in its grasp. Luigi grabbed his hammer and Mario did as well, they jumped up and started to attack the tentacle that had Lighting. Shade and Tiffany rushed to help, Shade grabbed his shurikens while Tiffany smacked the Blooper's face. Peach remembered how she attacked the Blooper in Vibe Island and her entire body became fired with rage. She was stomping on the Blooper as Bowser was punching away the sand. Shadow and Rouge are trying to help Lighting escape. Cream and the four chao started to attack the face. Peach was walking towards the Blooper's face and she was burning it. Silver and Blaze were both running through the sand using both fire and psychic to attack the Blooper. With enough force, it was destroyed. Shadow rushed and grabbed Lighting) "Thank you Shadow, cough!" Lighting said. "You okay Lighting? "Rouge asked. "Yes, I just got a little sand in my mouth, hey look at that." Lighting said. (Everyone looked where Lighting was pointing, the sand of the Blooper formed into the Sand Key) "There it is, I guess Peach can get it." Mario said. "Thank you Mario." Peach said. (Peach walked calmly and grabbed the ancient key) "So how can we escape?" Luigi asked. "I know, lets do it Lighting." Silver said. "Yes, now teamwork." Lighting said. (Silver created steps made of sand and Lighting used electricity to freeze the sand, they exited out of the pit) "Where's Darkness?" Amy asked. Yoshi. "I guess he thought that we drowned within the sand, now we have to leave." Knuckles said. (They began their way.

After many steps, they exited out of the pyramid. Meanwhile at a place, another koopa guard was running towards the Commander's room) "Sir, they got the Sand Key, what should we do?" The guard asked. "Good, release Darkness on them, let the one in Light Force be taken to a different location, make sure that he is taken to the area." The Commander ordered. "Yes, he is waiting for them, I'll tell him now." The guard said. "Yes, now go, just you'll soon wait you all you pests." The Commander said. (Back with the others, they headed back to Bazaar City, and made it to Arid's Shop) "Welcome back, how was the trip?" Arid's wife asked. "It went very well, thank you for letting me borrow your book." Blaze said. "Your welcome purple cat." Arid's wife said. "Did Arid finish the helicopter?" Lighting asked. "Yes, he just remolded it, but since you must be so tired, why not have some of my Lamb Rice Pie?" Arid's wife asked. "Sounds good, we do feel tired, so we need to rest." Ivory said. "Very well, I'm making some right now." Arid's wife said. Ring, ring! "Huh, oh its for you Tails." Amy said. "For me, thank you Amy." Tails said. (He sat down and got out the comunication device. The screen opened up to reveal the hologram of Pickle) "Hey Professor Pickle, how are you doing?" Knuckles asked. "Very well, did you rescue Sonic?" Pickle asked. "Um no, not yet, we gained new allies, Lighting, Blaze, Bowser, and we rescued Tiffany, Angel, and Cheese." Shade said. "Nice, can I talk to Tiffany?" Pickle asked. "Yea, here you go Tiffany." Tails said. "Thank you Tails, we meet again, we had just found something that might help us." Tiffany said. "What is it?" Pickle asked. "Two keys known as the Fire and Sand Keys, we just got sand." Tiffany explained. "Impressive, so where are you right now?" Pickle asked. "A shop in Bazaar City, located at Shy Guy Dessert." Blaze answered. "I have my pies ready." Aird's wife said. "Oh, we have to eat, sorry Pickle." Amy said. "Its okay, now have some dinner." Pickle said. (The screen turned off) "Now come in here, dear!" Arid's wife shouted. "I'm coming my wife." Arid said. (Arid exited out of the outside and everyone followed him, they find three large tables, they sat down and the wife of Arid had two Lamb Rice Pies and placed them where Shade and Shadow were, after she and Arid had given them all the pies, two mini Shy Guys appeared and they sat down next to Wander and his wife) "Who are they?" Peach asked. "My children, now its time to eat, but first we must prey." Arid said. (After they preyed, they had the pies, after eating, she showed them their rooms, they all fell asleep, except Ivory) "What is Darkness hiding, where could the remaining key be, maybe I should get some rest, the first thing I have to do is operate the helicopter, I wonder what it looks like, I should get some sleep." Ivory thought. (She fell asleep like the others, the next morning, Ivory woke up to the smell of eggs, she went downstairs and saw the family preparing breakfast) "Hello ivory colored one." Arid's wife said. "Um my name is just Ivory, what are you cooking?" Ivory asked. "Chicken Eggs with a side of Pig Bacon and Milk from Moomoo Fields." Arid said. "Eggs, Bacon, Milk, what are they?" Ivory asked. "You have never heard of them, where do you live?" Arid's kid asked. "In a dimension that is filled with war, I can't explain how horrible it is." Ivory explained. "Don't worry, now awaken everyone for me." Arid's wife said. "Yes, I will do so." Ivory said. (She found a bell and she rang it, the loud noise had awoken everyone up. They rushed downstairs and had breakfast) "So Lighting, how did you meet Arid?" Luigi asked. "I was separated from Silver and had to trek the sands, it was too much and it made me pass out, Arid found and helped me and took me to his shop, after telling me of things, he had told me of a Dark Parasite in a castle, I had to hurry, but I was far away, so he blew on his horn and I met you." Lighting explained. "I see, now we have to head to where the next key is." Blaze said. "You mean the Ice Key, I know where to go, me and my husband left a map, now you must begin." Arid's wife said. "Your right, thank you." Luigi said. Your welcome Luigi." Arid said. (He showed everyone to the helicopter, when they got inside, they saw a massive improvement. Lighting used his power on a new generator, and Ivory took control of the helicopter, and it started to fly off, below, the Shy Guy family waved goodbye, now up in the air, Lighting saw the blue sky. He left the room and quickly went back to Ivory who was having trouble looking at the map) "Need some help?" Lighting asked. "Yes, can you see the Ice Key's location for me?" Ivory asked. "Yes, its an hour west." Lighting said. "Got it." Ivory said. (She made the helicopter go west.

An hour later, they made it to an icy forest) "Is this where it is?" Lighting asked. "I think so, let's land." Ivory said. (She landed the helicopter onto the snow, and everyone got out) "Brr, what is this place?" Daisy asked. "We need to find the last key, lets find the place." Blaze said. (They started to walk around and are trying to find the hidden Ice Key as snowflakes were falling. They find only trees, snow, and hills, until Amy found the place) "Hey guys, look!" Amy yelled. (She pointed and the place was a mansion. They made it to the courtyards after busting up the rusty gates, snow was filling up the places where plants used to be, Knuckles punched the doors and they found the place completely deserted) "Hello!" Tails yelled. "Its no use Tails, we need to find out what had happened here." Silver said. "Your right Silver, we better stay close, now lets find the Ice Key." Blaze said. (They entered into the frozen kitchen and saw skulls of koopas, they made it to the dining room, where many are frozen, even a turkey) "What caused this?" Mario asked. "I'm scarred." Cream said. "Don't worry Cream, me and Mario will protect you." Luigi said. "Thank you Luigi, just why is this place frozen?" Cream asked. "We'll find out soon." Shadow said. (They continued their way through the place, they found their way into a hallway. Everyone had trouble trying to get through without slipping across the ice had made it to and old ballroom that has a clock that is frozen to the time 12:00) "Hmm, this clock is still frozen." Shade said. "Just what happened?" Luigi asked. "I don't know Luigi, but whatever it is, it's a threat, lets go." Ivory said. (They continued their way and entered into another hallway that has stairs, they all went up and found dead skeletons. Knuckles and Bowser kept ramming into doors, but they kept finding nothing. Until the two rammed into the last door, it was a frozen stairway to the garden, after going downstairs, the door opened up by itself. There was a snowy garden, three fountains that had three crosses of dead, angels holding onto barrels of frozen water, bowls made of stone, there were many greenhouses) "So what did happen here, big brother, I'm afraid." Tiffany said. "It's alright Tiffany, I'm still here." Shade said. "Hey Ivory, what is it?" Amy asked. "Amy, we need you to attack the greenhouse on the far right with your hammer." Ivory explained. "Okay." Amy said. (She grabbed her hammer and smashed the doors to the far right. Ivory and Tails entered into the greenhouse and found many lattices holding onto plants that are frozen. Ivory placed her hand onto the plant's large bud, Lighting came into the greenhouse) "So Ivory, what can you see?" Lighting asked. "Nothing, not even a single sign, hey what's this?" Ivory asked. (She opened the bud and found a note and a map) "What is that, a treasure map?" Rouge asked. "No, let me read the note, Hello dear ones, if you are reading this note, we want you to kill the beast that froze our home. The map that you see is a way to find the hidden treasure that my son had found, if you can follow it closely, you might find the way to kill the monster. Now find it and let us rest in peace." Ivory read. "So this "treasure" can help us, I thought it was jewelry." Rouge said. (They followed the map which lead to a log, after Knuckles kicked it, there was a transportation machine, everyone entered into it and got transported to a mountain, after telling everyone but Lighting, Luigi, Mario, and Bowser to stay, they climbed up the mountain.

After making it to the top, there was a cracking noise. The floor collapsed, Ivory and Luigi fell, the ice regenerated and Lighting was stomping onto the ice. Until a loud noise caught all of their attention. Ivory and Luigi had slide into a hidden chamber. It was filled with crystals that was glowing with energy. Then, something caught Ivory's eye, the two started to walk to the room and saw three statues, one was an echidna, koopa, and robot all holding onto a Master Emerald. When Ivory and Luigi continued, Ivory's chest began to glow) "It must be the Master Emerald, just what is this place?" Ivory asked. "The three emeralds must react to the heart, just as the words of Chaos." Darkness said. "Huh, so we meet again Darkness, lets settle this, at a different area, I don't want you to destroy this place." Ivory said. "Very well Ivory, follow me." Darkness said. (He grabbed Ivory's arm and Luigi followed. The three walked to a different area, there was no crystals and statues) "So, shall we begin?" Darkness asked. "Yes, prepare yourself!" Ivory yelled. (She and Darkness used blades, and Luigi hid. Ivory backed up and did a back flip, Darkness disappeared and Ivory began to look around. Darkness then popped out of the shadows and was about to attack Ivory. She turned around and was about to use Dimension Blade, but Darkness dodged it and smacked Ivory in the face. Darkness hid into the shadows again and then was about to strike Ivory. She turned around and used Dimension Blade. She attacked right into the chest, but Darkness smiled as the blade went into his body) "Ha-ha!" Darkness laughed. "What's so funny?" Ivory asked. "You fight like a coward, don't you remember loosing to Metal Android?" Darkness explained. "Grr, don't mention that, now fight me like a true warrior!" Ivory yelled. "Very well." Darkness said. (He did a back flip and then grabbed the Dimension Blade from his chest. He then absorbed ice into his body and was able to form a body made of ice. Luigi panicked and he became frozen) "So you can do that?" Ivory asked. "Did you even think, it makes me feel like I have to kill for not knowing." Ice Soul said. (He created icicles that were floating above his body. Ivory recreated a Dimension Blade and was able to slice up the ice as more were coming out of Ice Soul's body. Ivory continued to slash all that he had until the gem on her ring began to glow a fiery red. She was attacking more faster and more times then the ice was forming. Ivory finally made it to Ice Soul and slashed Ice Soul's body and then was able to beat him) "Take that Ice Soul, what the?" Ivory asked. "I can't believe that your power can multiply that fast, I have no choice but to use my body's real power." Ice Soul said. (The ice was shattered to reveal a koopa's bones) "So that's your body?" Ivory asked. "Yes, I am Ice Soul, you have to fight." Ice Soul said. (He created many icy walls around him and Ivory. Ice Soul turned into dust and sneaked around. Ivory had looked around within the icy mirrors and Ice Soul had appeared behind Ivory and slashed her quills. Ivory had turned around and had grabbed Ice Soul's hand and started to pull him out of the mirror. She then made him spin around and started to shatter the ice mirrors. Ice Soul had frozen Ivory's hands and had turned himself into a giant cobra and ate Ivory. She fell into the center and there was an electric eel like thing circling around the heart. Ivory had picked up an icicle orb and then, it turned into a staff. Ivory had then used it to attacked the eel. The eel had then attacked Ivory and had attacked the staff. Ivory then slashed the eel and disappeared. Outside, Ice Soul started to choke and it had spitted out Ivory. Luckily she had shattered the ice surrounding Luigi, he then noticed Ice Soul turning back into a koopa. He then turned into an icy Phoenix, he then fired an ice ball. Luigi got behind Ivory as she then used Chaos Shield to protect herself. Ivory has then used the power of the Master Emerald and grabbed Luigi's hand. Ivory had then absorbed the power of fire and turned into a bolt of lighting and dashed right into Ice Soul's chest. He then turned into a normal koopa, a bug had appeared and it was squashed by Ivory's foot) "A Dark Parasite, I now understand, are you okay?" Ivory asked. "Mmm, are you the ones who had helped me?" The old koopa asked. "Yes, what had happened to the mansion?" Luigi asked. "The mansion, I have seen the two who had entered into the blizzard." The koopa said. "Two, sorry we never had seen the two, only koopas." Ivory explained. I see, you have to make it to the Alter of Chaos." The old koopa said. "I wonder, maybe we need to follow them." Ivory said. "But Ivory, what about this old koopa?" Luigi asked. "Maybe we should take him to the Alter of Chaos." Ivory said. "That will be nice, now please." The old koopa said. (Ivory had to take the koopa to the Alter of Chaos.Â

There was a bright light and Ivory placed the old koopa on the ground) "I have a favor to ask you, can you take care of the alter?" Ivory asked. "Yes, for what you have done, I will, now you must leave into the cold wilderness." The old koopa replied. (Ivory and Luigi had began to dig their way. After a few minutes, they had made it to the outside, they waved farewell to the koopa and the two entered into the transportation machine. They had made it to the greenhouses and had followed the way they used. After going down the stairs, they had made it to the ballroom, and found a stairway going down) "What the, we had never seen stairs going down before" Ivory said. (They had entered into the hidden hallway. They had found a hidden room and had took a little peek, and inside was Dark Soul. In front of him was a red person who had blonde hair and was holding onto a saber, there was someone else who was dark blue with orange color, he had brown hair that was going up, he was holding onto a pistol. Behind was a blue person who was inside of a green capsule) "Hehehe, you have failed to beat me." Dark Soul said. "I have never known that he has so much power" The red person said. "Just why, what are you doing to our friend?" The dark blue one asked. "You will learn, now!" They gray Shadow said. (He summoned lighting and knocked out the two) "Sorry friend, I had failed you..." The dark blue person said. "Now that you two are not in the way, (Dark Soul turned around to see the blue person in the capsule) to awaken the power of darkness." Dark Soul said. "Come on Luigi, its time to fight." Ivory whisphered. "Huh, oh, so your here to see it?" Dark Soul asked. "Nothing, Dark Soul, but what are you doing?" Ivory asked. "You have to find out after Luigi is in here." Dark Soul said. "Oh yeah, we just need to defeat you, right Luigi, Luigi?" Ivory asked. (She found Luigi who had stayed in the hallway. Ivory had smacked her hand onto her face) "Luigi, excuse me, but I have to get this, come on Luigi, we need to fight him." Ivory explained. "NO!" Luigi shouted. (Ivory walked up to Luigi, grabbed his overalls, she had dragged him into the room. Dark Soul then had to use his powers to block up the door) "Thank you, now we have to." Ivory said. "Wait, with the power of the Darkness, its time to awaken!" Dark Soul shouted. (He placed his hands onto the frozen ice, dark energy started to melt the floor and everyone fell. Ivory grabbed the two knocked out ones, and Luigi was panicking, when they landed, Ivory had almost lost her balance, Luigi landed his face in the snow, the capsule had shattered, the ice was appearing. Circling the shattered capsule revealing a dragon that has a body made of bones, the outside is ice) "I must leave, you can handle the rest." Dark Soul said. (He escaped) "Darn, just where is he now?" Ivory asked. "They had just left due to awakening me." The dragon said. "Just who are you?" Luigi asked. "I am the Ice Dragon, many years ago, I was full of greed, I had wanted to steal the Ice Key, after I had obtained it, I had the powers of ice, and killed everyone and had taken the mansion for myself, I had felt awful for doing so, I had frozen myself, only the powers from the Dark Crystal, that is why Dark Soul had brought the energy." The Ice Dragon said. "Where's the Dark Crystal at?" Ivory asked. "I cannot say, but you already know, now we must fight, but first these three have to be taken to a safer place." The Ice Dragon said. (It used the power of ice and the three were teleported to the ballroom) "We shall begin!" Ivory said. (The Ice Dragon made frozen towers of snow arise from the ground, the Ice Dragon had started to fly upward. Ivory had created Dimension Blades and Luigi was holding onto a pillar. The Ice Dragon fired an ice sphere and Ivory had reflected it and was jumping from the spheres. The Ice Dragon started to flap its wings, causing Ivory to loose her balance. Luigi then got up and noticed Ivory about to fall, Ice Dragon then fired and Ivory fell, only the blades were on the platform. Luigi then started to jump across the pillars and he grabbed the blades. The Ice Dragon started to attack Luigi as he grabbed the blades and reflected the ice. He then had grabbed his hammer and started to smack the Ice Dragon's face. when Luigi looked down, he saw Ivory caught by the tail. Ivory managed to break from the grasp as Luigi was captured by the ice. Ivory had formed a Dimesion Blade and was jumpin on the ice pillars. She had made it to the Ice Dragon's chest and slashed it. The pillars started to disappear and Ivory grabbed Luigi. They had made it to the bottom of the room, the Ice Dragon then fell as well) "Luigi, are you okay?" Ivory asked. "I feel fine, sorry Ivory, I tried my best." Luigi said. "You have done very well Ivory, you now can receive the Ice Key." The Ice Dragon said. "But what about you?" Luigi asked. "I will recover, and so will the mansion, the Ice Key is appearing, you can now obtain it." The Ice Dragon said. (Ivory placed Luigi down and snow began to form into the Ice Key. Ivory had grabbed it and after she and Luigi said farewell to the Ice Dragon, they got to the ballroom. The trio were still knocked out and Ivory and Luigi both grabbed them and placed them onto the helicopter. Then the old koopa was running towards the two) "Wait, did you destroy the monster?" The old koopa asked. "We didn't, it has been calmed down, we have what we need, you can talk to it." Ivory explained. "I see, farewell you two." The old koopa said. (After saying goodbye, they took off.

They returned to Bazaar City and made it back to Arid's house) "Dark Soul, just who is he, I've never faced an enemy like him before, not even in my dimension." Ivory said. "Don't worry about it Ivory, just where is everyone?" Arid asked. "Oh yeah, we both have no idea, sorry." Ivory said. "Why don't you check on that trio again?" Luigi asked. "Alright, since we've got nothing to do." Ivory said. (She went up and saw the blue one had awoken up) "Where am I, who are you?" The blue person said. "My name is Ivory, whats you name?" Ivory asked. "Um, I'm Megaman X, now can you tell me where I am?" X asked. "Your in Shy Guy Desert, we found you and two others in a frozen mansion." Ivory explained. "Other two, what do you mean?" X asked. "Their in different rooms, come down with me and I'll show you most of my friends." Ivory explained. "Okay, please show me." X said. (The two headed downstairs. After X introduced himself, one of his friends came down the stairs) "Hey Axl, are you felling alright." X asked. "I feel fine, its great to see you again." Axl said. "Again, what do you mean." Arid asked. "Sorry, but thanks to this robot, I had lost memory, but I'll get it back, don't worry about me." Axl explained. "I see, even I don't remember." X said. "Hey look, how are you feeling Zero?" Axl asked. "I feel fine, is X okay?" Zero asked. "Yes, he's right here, safe and sound." Axl said. "Um excuse me, but we need your help to defeat the Commander, can you please help?" Ivory asked. "Should we?" X asked. "Yeah, maybe we might go home." Axl said. "We all agree." The trio said. (They entered into the helicopter and waved farewell to Arid and his family. Ivory used the power of the keys and was able to create a pathway on the map. When they had arrived, armies were appearing. Zero and Axl had made it through the forces while X, Luigi, and Ivory had made it through the doors. They all walked through in a single file.

The file was shattered when snipers started to attack. Axl then used his pistols and Zero was reflecting with the saber. Luigi was smacking the foes with his hammer. The entire team had made it to a prison cell, Ivory and X had then shattered the door. Inside was everyone but they were all frozen. Ivory and Luigi had melted the ice and thawed everyone from their prison. Everyone but Shadow, Lighting, and Amy were knocked out) "Ugh, what happened?" Lighting asked. "Its a long story, we can tell you later okay, right now we need to help the others." Ivory said they had left the room and then entered into another room. They had dodged all that was thrown at them. After fighting so many, they had made it to another room. Ivory had saw a hidden door, the keys mysteriously floated from Ivory's hands and the door started to open up. Inside was Dark Soul) "So we meet again Shadow the Hedgehog." Dark Soul said. "Just who are you, and how do you know me?" Shadow asked. (Dark Soul started to melt. When he fully melted, he then turned into Mephiles) "Mephiles, your back!" Shadow said. "I know Shadow, you have too much company to fight me." Mephiles said. (He teleported to Shadow, grabbed him and he teleported away) "Shadow!" Amy yelled. "Where are they?" Axl asked. "We can find them later, lets get to this Commander." Zero said. (They continued their way. After defeating all the forces of the west sector, they had made it to the prison sector. After looking in every cell, they had shattered through a seal made by the three keys. Inside was Sonic, who was lying on the ground and around him was blood) "Sonic, are you okay?" Amy asked. (She walked over to the weak hedgehog) "Amy, this is what had happen while you were looking for the keys, they had attacked me, trying to shatter me." Sonic explained. (Amy hugged Sonic) "Can you get up Sonic?" Amy asked. (Sonic began to get on his feet) "I'm alright Amy, nothing is going to hurt me or you." Sonic said. (He hugged Amy and saw X, Zero, and Axl) "So who are your new friends?" Sonic asked. "We can explain later, do you know where the Commander is?" Amy asked. "Yes, follow me." Sonic said. (They followed Sonic and entered into the control tower.

Inside their were more of the Commander's forces. Sonic and Lighting were attacking the snipers as Amy and Zero were taking down the shields. X, Axl, Ivory, and Luigi were defeating the main forces. All that was passed and they had made it to the Commander's room, they busted up the door) "Alright Commander, where are you?" X asked. "Ah X, Zero, and Axl, quite a surprise to see you." The Commander said. "What are you hiding from us, some little secret?" Zero asked. "Hahah, time for me to show you who I am!" The Commander said. (He walked away from the shadows, the Commander) "Vile, so we meet again!" The trio said. I'm sorry, but I can't talk to you, for now I have to meet up with the one who rebuilt me, the Dictator, farewell." Vile said. "Wait, your not going anywhere!" Axl shouted. (Vile pressed a button and two generators had fired electricity and was shocking everyone) "This is for you X!" Vile yelled. (He fired huge laser blasts and they went through X. Vile then teleported while laughing) "LIGHTNIG, YOU NEED TO, SHUT THIS THING OFF!" Ivory yelled. "I'M TRYING, YAH!" Lighting yelled. (Lighting absorbed all the energy and reflected and destroyed the machines) "Whew, thank you Lighting." Sonic said. "Your welcome." Lighting said. "Whats going on?" Ivory asked. "X, is injured, too bad I can't huh?" Zero asked. (The damage on X disappeared) "What had just happened?" Ivory asked. "Strange, I had just felt so weird when that light had just occurred." Sonic said. "That is because you have the energy of darkness." Someone said. "Who are you?" Luigi asked. (They saw a brown echinda with pure white eyes, wears a orange tube top, has dark green pants, wears gray gloves, and sandals) "Who are you?" Ivory asked. "I'm Will the Echinda, I am from your dimension." Will said. "Will, what a weird name for a girl, anyways, what do you mean about darkness?" Sonic asked. "X has something called the Dark Crystal, it is an ancient item that was said in the legends, he should be waking up soon, your friends have awoken, they are here right now." Will said. (Everyone came to the room, then a dimension portal had opened up. Shadow had exited out) "And that is that!" Shadow yelled. "Hey Shadow, what were you doing with Mephiles?" Sonic asked. "I gave him a nice good beating." Shadow explained. "Not him again, who are those guys?" Tails asked. "I'm Zero, this is X, and Axl." Zero introduced. "I can feel the Chaos Emerald, over in that computer." Knuckles said. "I'm on it." Axl said. (He fired energy blasts from his pistols and it exploded. Ivory went and got the Chaos Emerald and the Dark Ruby) "Two down, five to go." Ivory said. "Thank you for getting my castle back, you can stay." Bowser said. "Okay, but what if Peach and Daisy get into trouble?" Luigi asked. "Your right, we can't let them go with us, sorry girls, but you have to stay with Bowser and repair the castle." Silver said. "No fair, you get to go and we have to stay." Daisy said. "Maybe their right Daisy, before we rescued you, Ivory had asked me and Darkness a question, she's right." Peach said. "Fine, you win." Daisy said. "It's true you want to go, but things up ahead will get tougher, so for now, we must rest before we can all go on." Will said.

(Meanwhile at a hidden area, the door had opened up and Vile entered into the command room) "Why Eggman, why can't I blow them up?" Vile asked. "Because Metal Android told me not to." Eggman explained. "Why that piece of junk!" Vile yelled. "Would you like to destroy the Chaos Emeralds and the Dark Jewels?" Metal Android asked. "Oh, I don't really care for those pieces of junk." Vile said. "Well you better calm down Vile, besides, we still have many more tries." Rose said. "Why did the Dictator made you partners with me?" Vile asked. "I don't know, he didn't make me the leader, after what he's done to me." Rose whispered. "What was that Rose?" Metal Android asked. "Nothing, so what do we do now?" Rose asked. "We head to the next dimension, then, I can meet the Dictator." Eggman said. "You've never seen Master Dictator before?" Vile asked. "Yes, all I did meet was Metal Android and you dear Rose." Eggman said. "Why thank you." Rose said. (Back with Sonic and friends, X had began to wake up) "Huh, what happened?" X asked. "X, about time, what took so long, (Amy slapped Lighting) ouch, what was that for?" Lighting asked. "You can't rush others to wake up, hello X, how do you feel?" Amy asked. "I feel fine, (X got up and noticed the dimension portal) what's that?" X asked. "It's a dimension portal, with it, we will be able to enter into another world, so are we ready?" Shade asked. "Yes, we are going home, right?" X asked. "Of course, now let's go!" Axl said. (They all rushed to the portal and waved goodbye to Mario, Peach, Bowser, Luigi, and Daisy. They all entered into the dimension portal) What is the next dimension, will X, Zero, and Axl enter back into their dimension, Will Mephiles come back, only Chapter Three will tell.
