(Alright, here we go with the next chapter! This is when the others find out how Sonic became a weredragon! This one should be a little longer than the other ones.)

Chapter 6: The Truth

Tails' P.O.V.

Me, Amy and Knuckles were running down the road to Mystic's castle. I knew that we were getting close, because I could hear her enchanting panpipe music drifting from the horizon. I knew not to play that close attention to it, because if one listens too closely to the music of her pipes, they will fall into an enthralling trance that they won't come out of until the music stops. We almost made it there, but we were soon stopped by a very creepy voice that we could only hear in our heads. "It's the end of the line, prey! Let me rip you!" The voice was saying. Pretty soon, the creature that had been talking landed in front of us, wings spread and fangs bared. It roared very loudly. We backed away from it. "Aw, man! Now what do we do?" I said in fear. We looked at each other until Knuckles snapped his fingers. "I got an idea!" He said. He then whispered his plan to us.

Knuckles P.O.V.

When I told the others my plan, they looked at me like I was insane. "Trust me, guys. It will work." I told them. They then nodded and we darted in different directions. Tails flew into the dragon's face, trying to keep it's attention while Amy and I tried to deal damage. It's scales were like metal armor, so we couldn't make that much damage. Tails kept it's attention and flew towards Mystic's castle, us running behind.

Tails soon stopped when we reached it, because Darkness had screeched and streaked at the dragon's face at full speed. Tails dodged just in time to avoid the demon's iron talons. He collided with the creature, almost sending it back. "Go inside and warn Mystic! I'll hold it off!" He yelled to us. We were able to get in through one of the windows.

Inside, we ran through the castle until we found Mystic in her living room, sitting in front of a fireplace with a blazing fire inside. What really got our attention was the multicolored flames. We saw that the flames were several shades of green, blue, red and a bunch of other colors you wouldn't expect a fire to be. Mystic was gazing at the flames in awe, playing her panpipes. "Mystic?" I said. She put down her pipes and looked up at us. She smiled. "Hello, Knuckles, Tails and Amy." She said. "What brings you to my home?" We looked at each other, exchanging worried glances. "Well, it's a long story." Tails said.

Mystic's P.O.V.

When they had told me the story of what happened in the city, my eyes shrank and my ears went down. I didn't want to tell them how he became a monster, but I knew it couldn't wait anymore. "So, do you have any ideas about how he could've become a weredragon?" Tails asked me. Amy shot me a killer glare. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. "I have a bit of a confession." I said. "I wanted to test a spell on him, and he agreed, but when I cast it, I didn't get it right, and so, he's been cursed." Their jaws dropped. Amy got really mad and pinned me against the wall with her hammer before I could react. "YOU BITCH! NOBODY DOES THAT TO SONIC AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!" She screamed at me. I used a spell to get out of her grasp before she crushed me.

"You'd better turn him back to normal, or I'll tear your head off!" She told me. "I've been working on something that should turn him back. It's a special pipe song. If we can get him to listen to at least the first 3 notes of it, he should calm down enough to listen to the rest of the song." "And, how will music turn him back?" Knuckles asked me. "You forget, redhead, I have a set of enchanted pipes. When he listens to the full song, he should be cured." I told him. I flicked his nose and jumped back before he could punch me. "But, the only way we can get him to listen, we'll need Alexia's help." I said. The others gasped. "Are you insane? Alexia? If we can even convince her to help, she'll most likely go overboard with it! Remember what happened last time we got her help?" Tails said. I had a brief flashback to what happened. All I could really remember was seeing my castle up in flames, Darkness trying to dump water on the flames. "That's the last time we let her house-sit on her own." I murmured. "But this time is different. She'll help us, since this is an emergency." The others looked at each other, and then nodded.

We then left my castle and started to run toward the town, trying to find the Maiden of Time.

(There we go, chapter 6! Will they be able to find Alexia before it's too late? Review and get candy or get attacked by Darkness!)
