Chapter 10 Revenge:

"I did it," Knuckles said once he had gotten out of his trance. He held the old emerald in his right hand, and the new one in his left. The old emerald shattered as the Guardian spoke. Tails looked at the shards of the broken rock curiously.

"I guess the old emerald was at its limits after all," the two-tail said.

"Aww… already finished," Sonic said as he and Shadow walked up to the shrine.

"Yup! Knuckles was able to successfully transfer Fleetway," Tails replied. Knuckles seemed to be spacing off while Tails was explaining the procedure.

"It's strange… that was way too easy. Fleetway was struggling a lot in the beginning, but then he suddenly stopped… I swear that I saw him smile… did he have a plan…," Knuckles thought to himself. Sonic waved his hand in front of the red echidna's face trying to get his attention.

"…-ey! Anybody home? Snap out of it, Knux," the blue speedster said.

"It is suspicious," the echidna muttered. Tails looked at him curiously and asked, "what is?"

"Fleetway didn't put up a good fight. It just didn't seem right," Knuckles said with a thoughtful look on his face. The group stood around thinking about it until Tails finally broke the silence.

"Are you sure that he was properly sealed," he asked timidly.

"Why don't I check," Shadow said coolly. The red echidna shrugged and passed the new fake emerald to the dark striped hedgehog.

"Hmm…," Shadow sighed. How odd, I can't feel anything from either of them. Is the Master Emerald blocking my Chaos sense…

"Umm… hey, Shadow… Shadz… helloo…," Sonic said waving his hand in front of the midnight hedgehog's face. Shadow continued to focus on the two emeralds and ignored the younger hedgehog's antics.

"Seriously, Shadow, ya might want to snap out of it. The Master Emerald is going totally crazy," Sonic cried out waving his hands frantically.

"What is it?! I am trying to concentrate, Faker," Shadow snarled in frustration. He looked up the alter to see the usually bright green emerald now darkening to a foresty-green color. The striped hedgehog mouthed an 'oh.' The energy was sparking off of the giant emerald dangerously. Even Knuckles did not dare to approach it.

"What the hell is happening," Shadow practically yelled.

"We found out where Fleetway ended up," Tails said nervously stating the obvious.

"You have got to be joking," the dark striped hedgehog groaned.

"Unfortunately, no," the young fox kit sighed.

"I cannot fight him…," the familiar voice of Tikal spoke into the minds of the group of heroes.

"But the Master Emerald is your domain," Knuckles exclaimed.

"He is absorbing the power of the Master Emerald! I think that I can expel him from the Master, but we must teleport him to a safe place so that he will not cause any destruction to this planet…," the spirit Guardian said.

"Do it. Teleport all of us to Planet Zero. We will stop him," Shadow said calmly his ruby red eyes glared determinedly at the giant emerald. The rest of the group stared at him in shock for a moment before nodding their heads in agreement.

"Very well… Chaos Control," Tikal commanded. The group standing in front of the shrine were enveloped in a bright flash of green light and teleported to the broken planet.

Planet Zero:

The group blinked their eyes trying to adjust to the sudden decrease in light. Shadow was the first to recover and quickly started to check the area for any signs of danger. He noted that the used-to-be planet looked the same. The seemingly endless waterfalls and floating chunks of land gave a sad and beautiful look to the place. The dark striped hedgehog noted that the blue door with wings was still there, the broken wing still lying where it had fallen.

"So this is Planet Zero, huh. It really is a dead planet," Sonic commented quietly. Tails nodded in agreement before looking around.

"Guys, focus! We aren't here to sightsee," Knuckles said. The red echidna stood in a way that would make one think that he was relaxed unless you looked at how his hands were clenched and his feet were planted firmly where he stood, ready to retaliate if anything, or anyone, attacked. Sonic rolled his eyes and shrugged.

"The Guardian is correct. We shouldn't let our guards down," Ebony added. She muttered a quick spell and her hands were enveloped by a soft golden glow.

"Never said that I wasn't taking this seriously. I'm just taking in our surroundings," Sonic replied.

"Where is He anyways," he added as an afterthought.

"Let's search around. We shouldn't split up, though. Or else he will simply pick us off one by one," Shadow said calmly.

"Sounds good! Okay, Shadow, lead the way," Sonic responded quickly. The dark hedgehog stared at him for a moment before nodding in a direction and taking off at a slow enough pace that the others could keep up with. He and Sonic were in the front, then Tails and Knuckles, and lastly, Ebony in the back.

"Soo… this is where ya ended up after the fight with the Biolizard, huh," Sonic said quietly so that only Shadow could hear. The darker hedgehog nodded.

"…"

"What did He say to you," the blue speedster asked curiously but gently.

"… He tried to mess with my mind. His 'humor' is a more sadistic and cruel version of yours," Shadow replied in a clipped tone.

"People always said that I have a strange sense of humor… I guess he just takes it to the next level," Sonic quipped. Shadow humphed and looked over his shoulder to see how the others were keeping up and noticed that Ebony had stopped.

"What is it," the midnight hedgehog sighed.

"I sense him approaching… he's coming from that direction," the black cat said as she pointed towards the blue door. Right after the sentance had left her mouth, a cruel and insane laughter echoed around them.

"Hahahahahaa… finally, finally, finally! I will have my REVENGE! But who to kill first," the demonic hedgehog laughed. The group turned around to find that Fleetway had Chaos Controlled right behind them.

"This is gonna be fun…," Fleetway said as he licked his lips hungrily.

To Be Continued…

A/N: Finally! I have managed to reach the Climax! Heck Yeah! The next chapters will be totally awesome (or so I hope)! Please Review! Btw, Pajamas's prophesy may come true, but because of their actions, they have drastically altered the future (I may make a sequel to this story where that prophecy does come true, maybe not).

Shout-out: Big thanks to my Reviewers: RAWN89, Mission' Shadow Support, Alex View, Zgirl101, Rasgnarok, and Guest! ^^
