I am so sorry that I haven't updated quicker, I was busy and I had trouble writing this chapter! But all is good now!

Before this chapter begins, I would like to say that the new Twilight Saga movie, "Eclipse" is so cool!

Anyway, onwards with the long waited story...

Chapter Eleven

Sonic's POV

I departed Shadow and Midnight immediately to find the Chaos Emerald as quickly as I could. But I easily admitted to myself that the task would be impossible due to the flames and rubble.

I pushed myself onwards though, desperate to complete the task.

The sight of this place devastated me; so many people, dead. I cringed every time. How can someone be so cruel to so many innocent lives?

I had already been searching for a while now and there was no glimpse of the precious gem anywhere, just more and more rubble. I tried to not give up hope but soon that was becoming impossible. I should be ashamed of myself.

"Hey! Have you found it yet?" I heard a familiar voice cry out. I turned to my high left and saw Breeze covered in soot. Behind her was Fist to my surprise.

I shook my head, "No luck yet" I sighed, "Has everyone else come?"

"Yeah, about fifteen minutes after you guys" Fist said with his arms crossed. Man, I never really realised how much he looked like Knuckles, minus the white fur.

"Is everyone alright?" I asked

"I think so. Tails just told us that we should help out with finding the emerald or the cat" Breeze said while frowning, "Have you seen anyone?"

I sighed, knowing that she was thinking of Midnight, "No, I haven't seen anyone since I left Shadow and Midnight an hour ago. What about you?"

"No, not really" Fist said in his deep voice, frowning as well, "Have you seen the cat?"

"Not at all"

"Damn. The sooner we find her the sooner that this nightmare will hopefully be over" Breeze said in a grumpy voice, looking a lot like me. Soon Fist grabbed her by the arms and pulled her close to him. I glared at him in anger. I could deal with one boy touching my daughter but two was enough. As I was about to yell at him, I realised that he was only pulling her out of the way of an incoming flame. All of this happened in about one second. Soon I had to duck out of the way as the flame hurled towards me, I darted about a meter away from the flame and glared up to where the flame came from.

There was so much smoke but I could still make a picture of the shadow like cat. Breeze, looking shaken after realising that she almost died, snarled at the cat figure behind the smoke, "Hey! Watch it! You throw a flame at my head, I kick my foot up your ass!"

The figure merely laughed and jumped down from the building she was upon. She landed on a building just to the right of Breeze and Fist, giving me my first full sight of my new enemy. Her fur was such a dark purple, I almost thought she was black (sorry if that sounded racist). Her bright golden eyes shone with glee, mischief and pure evil.

"It's you!" Fist yelled

The cat merely began to clap in a sarcastic way, "Oh bravo. You have enough brains to know who I am" she droned while Fist yelled out in anger.

I narrowed my eyes in hate, "Firstly, who the hell are you? Secondly, why are you doing this?" I indicated around the city.

The cat smiled, "My name is Crystal, and I want the Chaos Emeralds for revenge against this world" she tightened her fist in anger.

"Why?" Breeze asked her look of hate replaced by a look of horror.

"That is none of your business bluey" Crystal snapped, looking oddly like Blaze. This was it, curiosity got the better of me.

"Hey, you're not by any chance related to someone called Blaze are you?"

Crystal's look of hatred disappeared and looked very confused, "Who's Blaze?"

Well, that got rid of my thoughts, "Never mind. Now, I suggest you leave this place before I make you"

The entire city could've heard the laughter that was coming from this cat. She began to laugh like a nutter, she actually had tears streaming out of her eyes.

"You-you-haha You actually think-haha-that you can stop me! Haha! That's the best thing I've ever heard!"

I frowned, "I mean it. Leave. Now" I said in a harsh and low voice.

"Nope" she said, with her popping at the P.

I sighed, "You leave me no choice then"

"Okay then. Let's dance"

Before I knew it, she hurled herself off the building and attacked me. I fell to the ground with a groan. I quickly got back up and charged at her with a homing attack but she dodged and slammed my head into the pavement.

While I clutched at my head, I only just realised that Breeze and Fist had jumped into the fight, Breeze screamed a battle cry and began to try her hardest to do anything to cause injury upon the cat while Fist tried to hit her with his spiked gloves.

I recovered quickly and jumped up to spin dash. Seeing as how she was distracted with Breeze and Fist, I managed to hit her. She snarled in anger and pain before throwing a burning flame at my head.

Fist pushed me out of the way while Breeze delivered a kick to the back of the cat. As soon as she was down on the ground, me and Fist jumped up to deliver more injuries. But Crystal was much more skilful.

She floated upwards and a large ball of fire surrounded her, we could do nothing. Suddenly the fire spread around us rapidly, I expected all of our fur to be on fire but instead of our outsides being on fire our insides were burning like crazy. I fell to the ground screaming in pain, I had never felt anything like this before in my life. I was burning so badly. I could hear Fist grunting in an attempt to keep from yelling out but to my horror I could hear Breeze screaming in pain. I wanted to reach her and comfort her and tell her that everything would be okay, her screams cut at my heart. But all I could see was red.

Suddenly the pain was gone and I was breathing heavily. I looked up to find Crystal laughing cruelly. I found Breeze lying on the ground with her eyes closed and unmoving. Oh god, she couldn't be-?

Breeze twitched at that moment and my thoughts were washed away. I stared at Fist and said lowly, "Get her back, now" I ordered.

"No, you-"

"I said now!"

Unlike his father who would've put up a fight, Fist just sighed heavily and lifted Breeze into his arms before running away as fast as he could. With what little strength I had left, I did a homing attack on Crystal in an attempt to keep her distracted from Breeze and Fist.

It worked, well, the distraction did. I on the other hand was beaten to the ground with a fist. I groaned and tried to attack again, but she just kicked me hard in the stomach. I coughed up a little blood and struggled to get up but I was hit in the eye. It was no use; I was too weak after the burning.

I struggled to look up and all I saw was her, her face up against mine grinning in victory, "I told you that I could not be defeated, and now you paid the price. Well, I guess this is goodbye then" she said before delivering a final blow to my head. Everything turned black.

"Sonic, Sonic!"

I could hear someone calling out my name, someone with a deep voice. I opened my eyes as best as I could and I tried to ask who was there but all that came out was coughing.

I heard a sigh before a red and black figure entered my image. Shadow.

"Sonic, what the hell happened?" he asked, I hardly heard him as I saw a dark purple figure behind him. I tried to warn him, "Crystal"

"What?" I heard both Shadow and someone say, I ignored them, "Behind you, Shadow she's behind you".

Clearly they got the message because they both left my sight and everything became darker again. They were talking but I could hardly hear them, I was still in pain after the burning.

Suddenly Shadow came back into my view. No, wait. Gold eyes, Midnight. I looked at him pleadingly, "You have to help your father, she's too powerful to take on by himself". I didn't want anyone else to get hurt like me, Breeze and Fist did. I even worried for Midnight.

"No, I need to make sure that you're all right" he said urgently as he examined my body, but hardly a second passed before everything turned black again.

I wasn't fully conscious, but I could still sense where I was. I couldn't smell anymore smoke and the air seemed much more easier to breath. I could hear voices of Tails and Midnight. I knew that I was back at the safe point.

I felt a sharp prick in my arm and then heard Tails voice again, "I'm sure if I treat Sonic well enough he'll be fine so don't worry"

I was relieved. But then I heard Midnight talking, about Breeze.

"So, what else is up with Breeze?"

"Well, when I did some blood tests to make sure she was fine I kinda found out a little something unexpected" I heard Tails say.

"What? What's wrong? Is she okay? She doesn't have cancer does she?"

What, NO!

"No, but it does depend whether you want to call this good news or bad news"

Phew, wait a minute... WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH BREEZE?

"Congratulations, you're gonna be a dad"

...

"Hey Sonic! You're up!" I heard a relieved Amy say as my eyes snapped open. "You're gonna be a dad"...

I looked up to find Midnight with a small smile growing, "I'm gonna-I'm gonna be a-"

"I'd wipe that smirk off your face right now" I said in a flat voice. I was to mad to even yell.

Midnight looked at me and paled before laughing nervously, "Um, hi. Good to see that you're up. And uh-walking and glaring and um, cracking bones in your hands..." he began to say in a small voice.

Everyone was smart; they stayed out of my way.

I stopped right in front of Midnight, my body trembling in anger. I was no longer in pain; all I could think was of this boy touching my daughter in ways I didn't like. And because of him, she was pregnant...

"Start running" I growled.

Run Midnight, RUN!

Next there shall be a point of veiw from Crystal again! And this time I will try my hardest to get the chapter up quicker!

Thank you so much for your reviews! They make me really happy!
