"You sensed me coming towards you. Sonic, I'm going to kill you and cut your head off having it as my trophy and make my boss proud of me." Talon said.

"Is that so. You came all this way down to kill me without your boss' approval. How very clever but that is not going to happen, I will defeat you and you're going to tell me where I can find Darkness."

"Come at me Sonic. Let us fight."

"Correct." Sonic corrected.

"Hey I've seen you perform those new flaming abilities. We those the new moves you work training on?" Natsu asked.

"Yeah they are."

"You got to teach me one day."

"We had a fight with Darkness the Hedgehog and his new gorilla pale." Gray responded earning a shock from the whole guild.

"What! You guys fought against Darkness?" Lucy asked.

"Oh my!" Levy shrieked.

"How is this possible. You guys can't take on Darkness the Hedgehog." Erza exclaimed.

"No. Sonic fought against Darkness and this Brock the Gorilla guy. We found Sonic fighting against those guys and we got our butts kicked. They were so strong and they can break through any kind of magic." Natsu informed.

"Oh no..." Cana stuttered.

"This can't be good." Freed said shaking his head.

"Sonic what were you thinking going after Darkness?" Makarov asked as everyone turn their attention to Sonic.

"I didn't fought Darkness. I was taking a walk until one of Darkness' men came attacking me here in Magnolia and engage into a fight. We took the fight elsewhere through the forest and I've defeated Talon the Hawk. Darkness had Brock killing him for disobeying him and I fought Brock. Darkness was this close to kill me until Natsu, Gray and Happy arrive to save me." Sonic explained.

"Oh my. Are you ok?" Mirajane asked.

"Yeah I was stabbed a few times on my chest and stomach so I'll live. I'm ok."

"We should've been there to help you Sonic." Erza stammered.

"Hey it's cool. Darkness and Brock left before I could go after them. In other words, I'm pretty sure I'll be fighting Darkness' men and save him for last. I will defeat Darkness."

"We'll be right there to help you Sonic. Knowing how strong and powerful Darkness and his men are we will sacrifice ourselves to stop Darkness." Makarov stated.

"Y-you guys would do that after all I have brought you all into this?"

"Sonic. We're your friends and we will help you defeat Darkness and win this war that you and Darkness have. We will help you stop him." Lucy comforted.

"Thanks everyone..."

"No problem man. I got your back man. Besides you got yourself stronger and you defeated Darkness with that powerful large ball fireball against Darkness which brought a huge explosion." Natsu said causing everyone gasp in shock.

"WHAT! Sonic you performed new abilities?" Evergreen asked.

"Yep." Sonic responded.

"Sounds like you've grown stronger Sonic." Makarov assumed.

"Yeah I am. I will be working on my Volt form tomorrow but now I need to rest up and just enjoy the day."

"That's good to hear."

"Speaking of which, is there a good restaurant to eat at?"

"Yeah I know just the place. I can take you there and I'm hungry for myself."

"Sure lead the way."

Natsu takes Happy and Sonic to a restaurant to get something to eat.
