I don't own Sega, wish I did but we can't have everything we want---those that do are spoiled rotten.

Thankfully for me I just happen to own my OC's; Rrouger, Cinder, Dase, Indigo and Wintergreen.

-::-Fifteen Years Later-::-

A good sized ship lightly touches down on a concrete roof that had been covered with metal and an airspace outpost was on top, and over to the right. The building was located on an island by the name of Allureia, near Downuda.

Rrouger looked at the pilot seat, it was empty, the entire ship had been on autopilot the entire time, control by the person sitting up in the outpost. The person sitting up in the outpost was a snowy-white hedgehog with pale green stripes running in a distinct pattern, his eyes the same light shade as his stripes.

The hedgehog's voice came on the intercom of the ship, "wait there Rrouger I'm lowing the ship into the base."

"Thanks Wintergreen," Rrouger said. He knew everyone was tense because Dase obviously couldn't keep his severs up will he had a virus in him.

The panel the plane was on lowered and as it reached the bottom a steel panel covering up the gap in the roof.

Rrouger took the head phones out and got out of the plane. Walking through the hallway Rrouger stepped into a heavily shadowed room. The room had a computer with nine large screens on it.

Two people were already in the room; a brown lynx with icy-blue eyes, he sitting in a chair. He was wearing his classic red-and-blue coat. This was Dase, not a mortal solid being, but an advanced AI that at his full power could shut down half of Mobius's duper and normal computers. But at the current time, and with the low level of power from his virus infection, he could barely make a toaster work right.

The other person was Cinder, the leader of an underground group by the name of The Dark Army, in this group Rrouger was the sub-deputy. Cinder had her back turned to Rrouger and was scanning the GUN files they had stolen and in return the GUN had injected Dase with a powerful virus but failed in treating him all the way.

But Rrouger wasn't here to see Dase; Dase would kill him if Rrouger tried to give him any sympathy. No; Rrouger was here to see numero ouno, the lady in charge, Cinder Hedgehog. And he was here to get a man killed in a very slow and painful way.

"Interesting," Cinder said. "So he makes his living, working with the people who hate him, and with the people he hates."

Rrouger stopped a foot from her chair, he was brave enough to trust that Dase's survival made her calmer, but not quiet ready to put his neck on the line for someone who could make his life miserable. He wasn't prepared to see how far she'd bend without breaking today.

He tapped her chair and she swung around.

Cinder was dark gray hedgehog with fire-red streaks and sharp emerald-green eyes. Her attitude was just as dark as her fur. Cinder was notorious for her short temper and bad anger management. As leader of the Dark Army, Cinder had only one goal, and she would do anything to achieve it. Her goal was to: kill her brother, Shadow the Hedgehog.

Rrouger handed Cinder the photo he'd taken of Shadow and Rouge. Cinder took the photo and looked it over, pleased. "You know that if she gets in my way I'll have to deal with it Lancer."

Rrouger stiffed, Cinder hadn't called him that for years. She only hinted it when she had some past shadow to talk to him about.

"Does she know," Cinder asked?

"About," Rrouger continued, evasively. Yep, she's come to rain on my parade.

"About Micheal," Cinder finished.

Dase had been watching the entire thing; he already knew Rrouger's next words. It's going to a "no" my dear.

"No," Rrouger said.

Yep, Dase thought. Merta and Indigo are so predictable. One's a childish deputy and the other's a defensive sub-deputy. Cinder's a fiery leader, and Fiona Fox is a slut. I just want Shadow to survive his half-sister's temper long enough for me and Nicole to get in there and save his a##.

Rrouger looked at Cinder, "why should I tell Rouge how her father died? Are you going to tell Shadow about yourself?"

"Yes," Cinder said, looking at her brother in the photo. As soon as I can get my hands on him I'll tell him, then after I'll kill him in a blaze of fire. After I tell Shadow, make sure you tell Rouge about that 'suicide' you 'watched.' "

"Why should I tell her that I killed her own old man in cold, vengent blood?"

Cinder looked at him, "she's your sister, if she cares for you she'll understand."

A dark blue hedgehog barged into the room. "Who'll understand what?"

"Oh, Indigo, nice of you to come by," Cinder said to the green eyed hedgehog.

"So tell me," Cinder said. "What will you do to Sonic when you catch him?"

Indigo pulled out two pistols, loaded and rocked the hammers back. "I'll run metal through his brain and shove him six feet under."

"Good boy," Cinder said, and clapped. "Who's a good deputy?"

Indigo dropped both guns on the ground; they landed with a thud, raised his right hand high in the air and said in a very childish voice, "I am."

Rrouger looked at the kid, at age twenty-four he tended to act like a ten year old with guns and playing with the grown-ups. Of course Indigo was actually named Avan and was the fastest on the team; only he wasn't that bright when it came to girls. For the last nine years Cinder and Fiona had been fighting over him and he still hadn't guessed why for some reason. In truth Avan was about as smart as his younger brother, Sonic the Hedgehog was.

"You all know the plan right," Cinder addressed everyone. "Once Dase gets up and running, back to normal, Nicole comes over and we tear those Freedom Fighter and GUN b####### to pieces!"

All four soldiers nodded as Indigo raced off, Dase vanished and Rrouger followed Indigo out. Cinder stayed put and looked at the file on the screen, it was about her brother, Shadow.

"You will pay my brother," Cinder thought out loud. "You will pay for the insolence of Doom. Our father will suffer like you shall. Doom will burn under the fury of Fire-ette!"

Cinder glared at the photo as the computer closed, leaving her in the dark.

Rrouger's got murder on my mind. Will Cinder's plan succeed though? R&R me if you want to find out.

This is the last chapter. I actually have other stories on my computer about these characters too. Hope you enjoyed the short ride.
