"Hey mom! Look what I drew!" Little Silver carefully ran through the garden, to stop in front of his mother who was pulling out carrots. She had light gray fur, dark amber eyes, and a small tuft of bangs. She wears a dark gray jacket, blue pants, and gray shoes. The female looked up at her son.

"What is it?" She asked softly. Little Silver grinned before giving her the picture.

"I drew you and me!" He exclaimed. His mother looked at the crude drawing of her and Silver holding hands. Then she saw another picture of a hedgehog with charcoal fur and different colored eyes standing next to her.

"Who's this?" His mom asked while pointed at the black figure. The little kid grinned as he grabs his drawing from her hands.

"That's my dad," He then looked down with his arms behind him. "Sorry if I drew him wrong." He apologized. His mother weakly smiles then put her hand on her son's cheek.

"It's alright. I'm sure he would love this." She said. Little Silver grins at her with fire in his amber eyes.

"I can't wait to see him, so I can give it to him in person!" He shouted in excitement. The female had pain in her dark amber eyes when he said that. But still had a smile on her face. The kid didn't take note at that when she went back to tend to her garden. He looks down at his picture and focuses on the mysterious hedgehog.

"When is dad coming back?" He suddenly asked. The female stopped her work in responds to the question. She was silent for a few seconds while Silver had a confused look.

"He's...busy at G.U.N. so he can't visit us." His mother explained without looking at him. The little hedgehog furrowed his brows at that. He never seen his father in person. Not even seen a picture of him anywhere in the house. All he knows from his mother is his fur was pitch black and has a right red eye and a left silver eye after an accident. And from what she says, his father had a mysterious character but still caring. The kid always wonder why he hasn't called or visit even for an hour if he cared about his mother. He also wonders if his father knows what the little hedgehog looks like. Why every time he asks about his dad, his mother looks so sad? Did something happen between them? Does his father even love him to take a break from his job to see him? These things always comes into his mind.

"Honey where's your bracelets?" The questions in his head erased when he focused back on his mother. His eyes then looked down to his wrists and the top of his long navy blue boots. The hedgehog then pouts at his mother.

"But I hate wearing them! They're a pain!" Silver complained. When his small gloved hands turned into fists, the carrots suddenly rose in the air with a teal blue aura. Even the ones still in the earth. The light gray hedgehog gasped and gently grabbed her son's shoulders.

"I know you hate them. But those people from the Time Council will come back if you're not wearing them." She calmly said. Her kid stared at her for a few seconds before dropping his telekinesis while looking away, still having the pout.

"Fine! If it keeps those annoying people to stop coming here." Silver said then crossed his arms over his chest with the paper still in his hand. His mother chuckled at the attitude and lightly pats him on the head.

"How about after you put them on, you can help me with the garden?" She asked with a soft smile. Little Silver lose the pout and grins big.

"Okay! I'll be right back!" He said before running through the garden to the small house. But he stopped when he heard a loud slash and a body hitting the ground in a second behind him. The little hedgehog stood there motionless for a few seconds. Building up the courage to turn his head to see what the sounds were. But it caused his yellow eyes to widened at the scene. His mother was on her side on the dirt with red liquid coming out of her chest. Her eyes were half-opened but there were no life in the dark amber. His small body starts to shake when he stared at the monster who killed her. A giant golden armored eagle was slightly hunched and its wings out with colors of light gray and purple staining the gold. Silver uncontrollably shakes in his boots when the eagle slowly turns its large helmet head to look over its shoulder. The telekinesis user gasped loudly when his yellow eyes caught the red pupil-shaped clocks of the killer. The giant eagle suddenly turns its body around to face the kid with pure hatred in its eyes. As soon as he blinked, the monster was in front of him. A razor-sharp wing was in the air before coming down to the hedgehog. The kid screeched in fear as he jumps back to dodge the blow. His small hand let go of the drawing and it fell victim to the slash as the drawer fell back. He grunted when the back of his head hit the earth. The destroyed paper floated down to land on his stomach. From the angle the paper was in, Silver saw the slash started from the father's eyes being cut then it went down to his mother's torso. His eyes looked up to only have a scream stuck in his throat when he saw that the eagle raised its wing again. While it glares down at the helpless victim, the armored being brought down the wing to finish him off. Silver quickly blocked his head with his arms as he screamed.

"No!" As the wing was getting to his arms, his hands started to glow before everything went white.

"Silver!" The said hedgehog raised his head so fast he almost got a whiplash. He tried to get oxygen into his lungs as if he finished running a marathon. His shaky eyes quickly examine the area, to see that he was in a hallway of a hospital. It was all a dream, he thought. But to him it felt too real. His still shaky eyes looked down to stare at his wrists. The glowing teal blue in the cuffs were flashing. He rubs one cuff with the other hand while trying to calm himself down.

"Are you alright, mate? You act like you've seen a ghost." Marine said with concern. Silver looked up to the raccoon, who was in front of him. He then lean more in the chair before letting go of his cuff which the two weren't flashing anymore.

"Sorry, I had a...weird dream. How's Blaze?" The silver hedgehog asked with concern glazed over his eyes. The sailor could see it wasn't just a weird dream the other had experienced. But she knew he'll be mad if she pries him.

"The doctor said she'll wake up soon. Luckily the cut wasn't deep enough to do damage to the spine." Marine explained. The psychic hedgehog sigh in relief as he lets his body finally relax from the anxiety gripping on him.

"That's good." He whispered under his breath. The image of Blaze collapsing on him and bleeding from her back still haunts his mind. When the image of his dead mother replaced Blaze, he shook it away as quickly as it appeared.

"Shouldn't you be at work? It's been a day, and I don't think Blaze would like it if you're absent." The sailor said. Silver looked at her with wide eyes and shook his head.

"But I can't go back until she's awake." He argued. It's not like anyone would realize he's gone, he thought. Marine crossed her arms over her chest at that.

"She'll understand. Besides, she'll feel bad for making you worried about her. Your dark circles are darker than before." The raccoon commented. The telekinetic hedgehog rubbed his eyes with his arm.

"They're always this dark." He said while pointing at his dark circles. The raccoon girl ignores the comment.

"I'll tell her when she wakes up. Besides, you can visit her when your job is done." The hedgehog's amber eyes looked away to think about it. After a few minutes, he got up from his chair and looked at the sailor with a hint of guilt in them.

"When she wakes up, tell her I'll be back soon." Silver said. After Marine nodded at the request, he pulled out his watch from his quills to set calculations of his time. After setting them, a portal appeared next to the psychic hedgehog. He stood up and walked towards it, he stops and turns around to Marine.

"I'll be back tomorrow." He said. When the sailor gave him the thumbs up, Silver turned to the portal and walks through. In a matter of seconds, he arrived in his cramped dark office. When his ears picked up footsteps coming to the office, he quickly took off his wristwatch and opened a drawer to set it inside. He quickly closed it when the door opened behind him and someone running inside. When the hedgehog turned, he hit his side on the desk, not expecting a punch in the cheek. He didn't have time to yelp in pain when the person pushes his back against the desk.

"Where were you?!" The person shouted in his ears. The hedgehog shook away the shock to stare at the angry coworker.

"W-What do you mean?" He asked while clawing the hands around his neck. The anger bunny tightened the grip, making the telekinetic hedgehog choke.

"You only had one job and you blew it! Mammoth Mogul almost died!" He shouted near the other's face. Silver's eyes shrunk when the words hit him like a brick.

"W-What?" He muttered, forgetting that he was being choked. The bunny let go of the neck, letting the other regain the oxygen into his lungs.

"A giant eagle sneaked in this building without the alarms ringing. Mammoth Mogul said that he wanted to give you something, so he went back to see the front door was wide open!" The coworker shouted, his arms out when he said those words. The silver hedgehog soothed his sore neck, but stopped when the description of the intruder finally hit him.

"G-Giant eagle?" He looked at the still steaming mad bunny with shaky yellow eyes. "D-Did it had golden armor? O-Or clock eyes?" He stuttered out. The memory of Jikan-Tori raising their razor sharp wing to give the final blow to him was still fresh in his mind. The coworker raised a brow at him.

"How did you know? You weren't here, and you never bothered to check the camera footage." He said with suspicion in his narrowed eyes. The anxiety inside him was gripping him like talons. His yellow eyes widened in alarm as the bunny was slowly getting his gears working in his head. He needs to get out of here! The silver hedgehog quickly opened the drawer behind him to pull out his wristwatch.

"Wait that's-" The coworker was cut off from a swift punch to the jaw. While the assaulted bunny was busy holding his muzzle, Silver slipped out of his grip and made a dash out of his cramped office. He almost slammed his shoulder on the wall from the speed before running straight. As he was running, everyone in the main hall stared at him with wide eyes. When he heard his former coworkers shouting at him while many footsteps were coming towards him, the hedgehog starts running faster. As soon as he burst out of the glass doors, he stopped when a bright light hit him and a voice boomed through a mic.

"Silver, you're under arrest for abandoning your post! Do not resist arrest!" The voice boomed out. The said hedgehog had an arm over his eyes to block the blinding light. He feels the rain soaking his fur but still sweating. He opened one eye to glare at the police in front of him.

"Put your hands up now!" Another voice demanded. That was when the criminal got an idea. It will bite him in the ass later, but he needs a way out. Silver fully opened his eyes to glare at the police with his former coworkers watching the scene from the glass doors of the building. The hedgehog slowly raises his arms, but he curls his fingers in his palms, almost like fists. The officers were about to go to him to put the handcuffs on him, but they stopped when they noticed something was off. The tiny droplets falling from the sky stopped mid-air around the hedgehog. Upon further observation, there was a teal blue aura around the droplets. The police looked back to the silver hedgehog to see that his eyes were closed and his palms were glowing. Realizing what the criminal was about to do, they raise their guns towards him.

"Don't do it!" One of the officers demanded. Slowly, Silver opened his eyes to reveal his yellow eyes were glowing. Before anyone could do anything, he quickly dropped his arms to his sides and his body was surrounded in teal aura before he flew straight up. The hedgehog went up so fast the droplets of water hitting his body felt like rocks. He stopped near the top of the Time Council building and floated for a few seconds to stare at the sunrise outside the busy city. The hedgehog breathes heavily as his mind races.

"I need to see Mogul! H-He'll know what to do!" Silver thought. He almost dropped his aura around his body when bullets shot through the rainy air. The scared hedgehog starts flying forward frantically as bullets shot around him. But soon the bullets were changed to white goo. The one with the pot hair looked back with confusion, not realizing that he passed the city's hospital and going out of the city. Silver would have face palmed if his hands wasn't holding himself up the air.

"Great! Looks like I have to come back late-" He was cut off when the white goo hit him, gluing his arms on the sides of his body. The feeling of gravity pulling him down made his heart skip beats. While his body was flailing in the air, the hedgehog tries to get his arms free from the goo but it quickly dried despite the rain soaking him to the bone. He starts to hyperventilate when his shaky yellow eyes looks down to see the ground was getting closer to him. He couldn't stop the tears escaping his eyes as he closes them to wait for his end of his story. But something shiny kept hitting his eyelids. When he slightly opened his eyes, they widened when he saw what it was. His watch was spinning around the air in front of him. That was when he got an idea. Silver shook the tears and rain out of his face and kicked his feet like he was swimming in water towards the watch. The silver hedgehog gripped it in his teeth and clamped it until a portal was opening at the ground with people nearby moving out of the way. The pot-hair looked up to the black sky to silently pray.

"Please be Sonic's time! Chaos, please give me this for once!" He thought as he went through the portal. Silver twisted his body to face up towards the entrance of the portal. All he saw were the police on the edges, watching him go down the rabbit hole.

"Look, I can't save your butt every time you get in trouble." The hedgehog's widened when Mammoth Mogul's words echoed his head. Those yellow eyes then watered as droplets of tears escaped when he realizes what happened not even ten minutes ago.

"I'm sorry Mogul. I wish I wasn't a screw up! Why did I screw up!?" He screamed in his head as he closes his eyes. But his eyes opened when water slapped his back and immediately covered his whole body with the raging gray water. His muffled scream formed bubbles as he still had the device in his mouth. As he was carried through the violent currents, the silver hedgehog tries to get the goo out with his legs kicking through the water. He was sinking to the bottom of the raging river as he continues to struggle. The hedgehog tried to hold in his last air bubble in his mouth. But it slipped through his mouth as it lets go of the device. Dirty water went in his body as everything around him turns darker than before. Silver eyelids slowly closes but stopped midway when yellow eyes spots a small creature jumping in the raging water not far away. His eyebrows weakly furrowed in confusion when he saw the creature swimming to him was a normal frog. Not only that, the frog appeared to pulling down a fishing line with the hook in its mouth. The amphibian quickly got to the drowning hedgehog and goes around him with the fishing line tying the telekinesis user. The frog grabbed hold of the string that wasn't around the trapped Silver and yanked it hard. The runaway would have yelped in shock if he wasn't underwater as he pulled up by the fishing line without any trouble from the fisherman. Once his head popped out of the water, Silver coughed out the water and shivered violently with his pot hair sticking on his face. But while he was being pulled to shore by the fisherman, darkness was starting to take a hold on him despite that he could breathe again. The frog saw the hedgehog was falling asleep, it tries to keep him awake until they get to land by slapping his face with his front fin. But it didn't work as the silver hedgehog falls victim to the darkness before he felt rubber gloves pulling him out of the water by under his armpits.

I hope you've enjoyed this chapter!

Sorry it's been a year since I've updated this story. I had writer's block on what to write in chapter 4. Originally I was going to write Silver sneaking in the hospital to see Mammoth Mogul. They talked a bit before Silver decides to stop Jikan-Tori once and for all. He would go through the portal to Blaze's world to recruit Blaze and Marine to join him. They would later go to Sonic's time. But I thought it would flow better if I make Silver be in Sonic's time first then Blaze's. It'll make sense in the future.

So, Team Sonic Racing came out a few weeks ago. I started watching a gameplay because personally a car racing game isn't my thing. And immediately I've noticed the voice change of some of the characters. I quickly got used to the new voices because they sound similarly to the old ones. Silver's new actor is pretty good. The voice actor is one of my favorites. And come on, Cat Noir with Blaze is perfect. Here's a list of what I liked about the game: The character interaction, Sonic's and Shadow's rivalry, Big, Dodon Pa was an interacting character, and the idea of Silver having Precognition. I have ideas on how I would write Precognition for Silver in a future story.

And the hiatus helped me get better of my writing. No more missing periods, more detailed, and shows characters' emotions.

Tell me if you want me to continue hearing Jikan-Tori's thoughts like last chapter. After all this time, I feel it would be better if she shows emotions more than what she's thinking.

And Daku's backstory will be a bit different. It's changed from a different dimension to a different timeline. I thought it would make more sense because Jikan-Tori is a Time Goddess, and they never go to different dimensions.

Anyways, have a good day/night!
