I haven't figured out the dramatic stuff, so this is going to be a short chapter to show the start of the battle blah blah blah blah blah....... and to request some help with figuring out what will happen to turn events around. 'Cause I can't have Dark Gaia taking the collar off of Iltinis until Finitevus would be completely distracted from him for about ten minutes (hey, it takes time! Even with Iltinis's strength!) Please and thanks! ^_^

Shadow's eye twitched. "Sonic, are you...?"

"Yes, I'm white." He said, groaning. "I look like Silver I know, don't rub it in." Shadow frowned.

"Silver's fur is silver."

"Ha ha, very funny. We all know it's white." Shadow facepalmed.

"I'm not going to argue with you."

"No other character is allowed to have white fur unless he is a bad guy, or unless he has my permission!" Said Finitevus indignantly. Holy Knuckles glared at him.

"Shut up, no one needs to ask you for permission to do anything."

"They do." Said Finitevus, gesturing to Shadow and Iltinis.

"I would never pretend that you could prevent me from doing anything." Hissed Shadow. Apparently he was free enough from the control to actually talk without having orders to report, or he was strong enough to be able to talk at least. Iltinis remained silent, his eyes on his shoes. He knew Amy was looking at him.

But why? Was it because he'd tried to kill her, or because she knew he liked her, even if Dark Gaia's words hadn't implied anything specific. He had no idea that Holy Amy was actually watching Finitevus, knowing that whatever Iltinis did was because of him, and to find out what was going to happen, they had to keep an eye on the echidna.

Holy Charmy then did something very unexpected. And very very stupid. At some point, Finitevus had accidentally dropped his remote, and Charmy picked it up. And then he did the most horrifying thing possible. HE PRESSED THE BIG RED BUTTON NO ONE IS SUPPOSED TO PRESS. Instantly, Shadow found himself fighting to get the shock collar off, and Iltinis was writhing on the ground, pulling frantically at the collar and howling. Finitevus reached inside his cloak and realized the remote was missing.

He then noticed Charmy holding it. "Give that back!" He hissed, darting forward. Holy Sonic blocked him, his face covered in a false grin.

"Now now, don't be hasty." Holy Amy pulled the remote from Holy Charmy's shocked grasp. It was as she was desperately trying to figure out how she was supposed to turn it off when her mind seemed to fill with jelly.

'Hello my dear.'

'Dark Gaia?' Her eyes widened.

'But of course, you called me. What's wrong now?'

'You mean you don't know what's happening to Iltinis?'

'Look at him please.' Amy did so and heard Dark Gaia curse. It wasn't one she recognized, so she guessed it came from sometime before he'd last destroyed the world. 'I had my attention elsewhere and had no idea this would happen.'

'Could you tell me how to turn it off?'

'It's too late for Iltinis's, but if you press it again, Shadow's will turn off.'

'Iltitnis is going to die?'

'I never said that now did I dear?' Holy Amy swallowed and pressed the button.

'Can't my powers save him?'

'He's a creature made from dark energy, you'd kill him or change him from how he is. He'd be a totally different person. And it might hurt me, bringing about another premature awakening.' Iltinis fell still as a warp ring appeared and a few individuals stepped through. A green hedgehog with icy blue eyes, an attractive female fox, a large dog, a gorilla, a frog, and a lynx. Finitevus smirked.

"Meet the Destructix." Suddenly there was a snarl. Everyone turned. Iltinis's eyes were open again, but the irises and pupils were gone. His hands firmly took the collar and with a quick jerk it snapped in half. He threw it away and stood, getting about twice as big as he did so.

"Finitevus, what is that thing?" Asked Scourge, the green hedgehog.

"I am not sure. It is intriguing, I shall have to study Iltinis further...."

"I won't fall for your trickery again, don't bother taking out those damn needles or oxygen masks of yours." Iltinis growled. His fangs became longer, they were like daggers now.

"Come on Iltinis, I am only trying to help all life. With the experiments I conduct on you, I could learn how to cure people and..." He was suddenly pinned to the ground beneath a massive hand. Iltinis's nose was inches from the echidna doctor's face.

"One more lie and I'll squash you like a bug."

"Alright, let me up." Iltinis did so slowly. As soon as he was up, he stepped back into a warp ring. "Take care of them Scourge, capture Iltinis alive. I don't care if you have to rough him up or not." Scourge's eyes lit up.

"Sure thing doc."

"You'll have to get through his friends first." Said Fiona, looking at the Holy versions of our heroes.

"I don't have friends." Hissed Iltinis. "All I have is a world covered in people to trick me or take advantage of my trust." He chuckled. "You'll just all have to die."

Ha ha...... maybe I actually figured out the climax bit without meaning to. O.O Anyway...... Iltinis is acting weird and the world is going to get destroyed again, oh goodie! ¬¬ If you've got ideas, tell me! I could use some. ^^'

R&R please, and I hope I can update soon. ^_^
