Me (Soul): Now, this isn't that long, I apologise, but I have more home issues and have a really painful throat (punched in the Adam's Apple), so I can't really cough or clear my throat without unimaginable pain. I also have a boxing match in a few weeks, so yeah... I need to train like fuck... Just read the freaking story as I only own the plot... I'm lonely...

(LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK!)

Sonic's point of view:

I could feel someone wrap their arms around me.

Thalia...

I smiled weakly as Dark's screams faded away and I reverted back to my normal form.

"Remember everything?" I asked weakly as she cradled my head in her lap.

"Everything, Sonic the Hedgehog." Thalia gave me a kiss on the lips.

And now, all I need to do is get us out of here.

"How do we get outta here exactly?" I asked.

"I don't know... But where are we?" Thalia asked me.

"The Caverns of Gaia, the very place below this is where I fought Dark Gaia." I replied, and she went wide eyed.

"Gaia; as in earth goddess?" She asked.

"Yeah... Three years ago, but this thing was two gods. I know one, Chip, and I beat up Dark Gaia with his help." I smirked, and Thalia let out a little laugh.

"CHIP! HOW THE HELL DO WE GET OUTTA HERE?!" I shouted out, and my little magenta furball friend appeared.

"Do I have to do everything?" Chip complained.

"Pretty much." I shrugged.

"Just look for the Temple of Gaia: all seven Temples of Gaia put together. They are underground, in this very cavern. They lead to where Dark Gaia and I are clashing. If you can, Sonic, help me when you get time. And bring your pretty girlfriend too," Thalia and I went bright red as he said that, "and I will send you back up to ground level." Chip explained.

"You have a deal little buddy: we will kick Dark Gaia's butt back to hell." I smiled, hi-fiving Chip.

"You have quite a fight above earth too: the Dark Master Emerald has been stolen, and Luke, Annabeth and Mephiles are preparing to go to war with your friends. You are both believed to be dead." Chip added. "Sayonara, Sonic the Hedgehog." Chip waved as he faded away, leaving Thalia and I in the cold, gloomy cavern...

Percy's point of view:

I sat on the roof of Tails' workshop. It was a full moon tonight. It reminded me of one person, and that wasn't Artemis. She died by her father's hand on a full moon, on the Winter Solosite.

"Percy" I could hear Zoe's sweet voice ask.

"Yeah?" I called back as I watched a shooting star fly by.

"How come your up at this hour?" She asked as I heard footsteps behind me.

"Couldn't sleep." I said simply as Zoe sat down next to me.

"Really, what's wrong?" Zoe demanded an answer, turning to face me.

I turned my head to the side to avoid her gaze.

"It's just... Everything that has happened so far..." I muttered, just about loud enough for Zoe to hear throughout the silent night.

"You mean Annabeth?" Zoe asked, and I nodded slightly.

"That's one part... It's just that I sometimes wonder... 'Who can I trust'. I just feel alone, weak, and useless." I choked up, and Zoe rested a hand on my shoulder.

"Heracles was like that after I helped him... That's why I swore off men." Zoe said sadly as I turned my back towards her to see a tear trickling down the side of her face. "I lost everything for that pig... I lost my sisters, I lost all connection with my mother... I was an outcast - unwanted." Zoe let a few tears fall, and I sat up so I was eye level with her.

"Well, Hercules isn't here now, is he? He can't hurt you - he won't hurt you again Zoe... I promise..." I rubbed her back gently, soothing my crush.

"Percy?" Zoe called, turning to the side.

"Yeah?" I answered, turning to face Zoe.

I only got something I never expected: something that I never thought would of happened after Annabeth betrayed me.

Zoe Nightshade was kissing me on the lips.

I was in shock. Zoe Nightshade; the next biggest male hater after Artemis, is kissing me full on the lips.

When I didn't kiss back through my shock, Zoe pulled back, tears in her eyes.

"I knew this was a mistake... Sorry Percy..." Zoe got up and ran away. I caught a glimpse of her jumping down from Tails' workshop roof and ran towards the jungle.

I let out a sigh of annoyance as I realised my mistake. I touched my lips softly. I am such an idiot, I scoldered myself. I got up and decided to follow Zoe, and make things right with her.

(LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK!)

Zoe's point of view:

I am such an idiot. I should never of kissed Percy, as he probably hates me right now.

I stopped running when I caught sight of a huge metal base deeper into the jungle. I continued walking until I was at a cliff edge; about a mile from the cliff.

Would Percy care if I jump down here and die? Would anyone care? I'm supposed to be dead anyway... So why not? Percy, the only boy I have ever come to love, most likely hates me now...

I just sat down on the cliff edge as the moon slowly came into view, bathing me in it's bright light. Artemis was happy tonight then.

I then heard a rustling behind me.

I got my bow and notched and arrow, ready to fire at whatever came through the bushes. It was only Percy.

"What do you want?" I asked, turning back around so I wouldn't have to face him.

"Zoe... I'm sorry..." Percy muttered as he came over and sat down next to me.

"It's alright if you don't like me... It's fine... Really." I gave him a small, fake smile.

"You are wrong there." Percy gave me his crooked grin and then slowly inched closer towards me. His lips pressed onto mine, and gave me a lovely, slow, passionate kiss.

We soon broke apart for air, and Percy muttered three words that made me want to marry him now: "I love you."

"I love you too." I muttered as things started to get heated up, and turned into an all out make out session.

Oh Gods of Olympus, how much I love Perseus Jackson is indescribable.

(LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK!)

Percy and I strolled through the jungle, heading towards the metal fortress we had spotted. We were going to get pay back on Annabeth and that, but then Percy suggested something.

"Do you have a Drachma or two?" Percy asked.

"I have a few, why?" I replied, curious about why he wanted them.

"Iris Message Tails and see if we can Sonic. Sucks that I only just thought of that. Gods, I am an idiot." I chuckled lightly at Percy's last sentence, and I pulled out three drachma and handed them to Percy.

"How are we exactly going to crreate mist?" I asked, and Percy paled slightly until a smirk played at his lips.

"Son of Poseidon."

I mentally face palmed. I am more stupid than Percy at the minute!

Percy summoned some water from nearby and summoned it to heat up, creating quite a lot of steam.

"O' Iris, Goddess of the Rainbow, accept my offering and show me Miles 'Tails' Prowler." Percy muttered, and a blurry image formed, showing Tails sleeping over some work.

"Oi! SONIC'S HERE!" I shouted rudely, wakeing Tails up suddenly.

"Wha?" Tails asked, drool hanging from his chin.

"Here you dolt." I grumbled, and Tails turned to me.

"What's up?" Tails asked, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.

"We have found a fortress - possibly Eggman's. We need you and the others to come here so we can tear this place down. We will try and contact Sonic in the meantime." Percy explained, and Tails' eyes went wide.

"I've seen the part of the jungle you are in. Sonic blew the base up before; I watched him do it. How are you contacting me anyway?" Tails asked, confused for once in his life.

"Iris Message. Something us Greek Demigods use." Percy smirked. Gods, I loved that smirk.

"Alright. I'll meet you... At the ruined temple near to you. I will bring the others with me. Be there in ten minutes." Tails ordered, and seemed to uncap a button next to his desk and rammed his fist into it. An alarm sounded throughout the house and I watched as Tails pushed away from his desk as it seemed to sink into the ground, and a room full of swords, guns and other weapons appeared.

"When was that placed there!?" I could hear Knuckles shout, and Shadow run into the room and hugged some of the guns.

"See ya." I said as Percy swipped through the mist and created another steam cloud.

Percy repeated the chant but said 'Thalia Grace' this time, and the raven haired hedgehog slowly appeared through the mist, with a blue spikey hedgehog facing away. Sonic then spun around to face us, sword in hand.

(LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK!)

Sonic's point of view:

I poked at the fire with a rather large rock. I was exhausted, as was Thalia, thanks to our little 'misunderstanding' earlier on and walking around and around in circles.

"He could mark arrows next time so we know where we're going." I muttered, wishing that life was so much easier. I could do without this huge ass quest.

You see, Thalia and I have gotten lost around five... Maybe six or seven times, trying to find the Temples of Gaia. We are now exhausted, and when your in a cave full of all kinds of monsters, you are screwed.

"I'll take first watch. You go to sleep Thalia." I suggested, and Thalia just stared behind my head.

I grasped my Stygian Iron blade and got ready to kill what ever was behind me, but I saw a blurred image of Percy and Zoe.

"Percy! Zoe!" I shouted as I smiled widely, and Talia scooted over and sat next to me.

"Iris Message?" Thalia asked, and Percy nodded.

"We only have six drachmas left, and this is an emergancy. Do you have a way to get out of there?" Zoe comfirmed.

"We are heading towards the Temple of Gaia, and I have to help Light Gaia put Dark Gaia back to sleep, as all of this dark energy is reawakening Dark Gaia quicker than supposed to. After the deed is done, Light Gaia said that he will open up a path way for Thalia and I to escape through." I explained.

"How long will it take you guys to get there?" Percy asked.

"Not sure, as this is new to me. The Caverns of Gaia is an area of space just above where I fought Dark Gaia and put it back to sleep. After that, Light Gaia sacrificed his life and launched me back onto ground level, returning to his endless slumber with Dark Gaia." I explained, much to Percy's confusion.

"So, how can you get back to our level? We are about to fight Eggman." Zoe added.

"And I have to miss it..." I trailed off, and then I began to grin evilly.

"I don't like that look in your eyes Sonic..." Thalia inched away from me.

"Dark Gaia despises Eggman for ruining it's slumber... I'll help you guys - and I'll drag Eggman down here if need me, and destroy him." I suggested.

"Even for me, that is too evil. You do youor thing, and help us if you can. But nothing too evil if you help us, as I don't want to clean up the monster's remains." Zoe chuckled.

"Will do... I'll be sure to keep an eye on Sonic." Thalia chuckled, sitting back down next to me.

"Right... Now, let's get on and start kicking evil ass, should we not?" Percy suggested, and I gave him my signiture smirk.

"Now, Perce, that is my sorta language!" I cracked up, and Percy began to fade.

"See you guys soon... I hope..." Percy and Zoe's voices faded, leaving Thalia and I alone in the gloom.

"We leave after you get some sleep. You have to fight a god anyway." Thalia demanded.

"I defeated an super - out - of - control - interdimensional being after dying; so this will be a piece of cake. You sleep too, as you'll need to drag me back above ground." I smiled at her, and she rested her head on my chest, falling sound asleep, snoring lightly.

I couldn't sleep. I wouldn't sleep till I get my revenge and win this war.

(LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK!)

Jason's point of view:

Ever since my sister vanished along with Percy, Sonic and the others, both Camp Jupiter and Half Blood have gone haywire.

All that was left behind from them was a small note, saying these very words:

"Annabeth is going to die, and pay for what she has done to us. My world is in danger, so guard this world. I trust you Gods of Olympus and Heroes of Olympus. We will come to your aids when buisness is done in Mobius. Sonic the Hedgehog, Bane of Darkness."

I basically scrunched up the note and promised myself that I would tear Sonic apart for taking my sister away from me.

I mean, yeah, he needs to protect his home land, but he has a freaking god - like form for Hades sakes! He can destroy us all if he wanted to, so why didn't he?

This is all just confusing...

(LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK!)

Thalia's point of view:

I'm worried about Sonic now. He isn't sleeping, he seems much more distant, and he acts as of he is solo.

I know full damn well that he never slept a second last night (or whatever time it was), but it was ruining Sonic.

"Sonic, youo should rest for at least an hour! You will neever win against Dark Gaia in this case!" I argued, but Sonic only growled, ignoring me.

"Why didn't I just stay back on Earth, and defend my home, not your home." I complained, my anger getting the best of me.

"Then you know what, Thalia Grace?" Sonic asked, hurt in his voice, "Find your own way out of here. Actually, Light Gaia will send you out of here now and I will fight Dark Gaia and win." Sonic growled, not facing me.

"Then why ignore me?! Why destroy yourself?!" I cried out, worried for Sonic.

"I am doing this for your own safety. Sayonara then, Thalia Grace." Sonic walked into a huge temple. I tried to run after him, but an invisible barrier prevented me on entering.

"SONIIIIC!" I screamed as a white light enclosed around my body, taking back to ground level.

The light died down and I seemed to be a few hundred metres away from a huge metal fortress... The fortress that I had seen in the Iris Message.

"Sonic..." I let a tear fall down my cheek as electrricity crackled around my body, the sent of O-Zone filling my nostrils.

A storm was brewing above the fortress, and I saw a fighter jet heading towards the base.

Hopefully, that could be Percy and the gang.

I pulled out my canister of mace and it grew into my five foot long spear, and I slammed my hand on my bracelet, and Aiges spiralled from it. Now, I'm going to kill some bitches and drag Sonic from the Caverns of Gaia if I have to.

(LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK!)

Sonic's point of view:

I marched into the temple, ignoring Thalia's screams. I know what I said was harsh, but it needed to be said.

I walled to the top of a stair well, and I looked down into it, and into a chasm of never ending darkness.

Well, this is it. This is where I will most likely rest forever and renew Dark Gaia's seal for it's imprisionment.

I took ten steps backwards and then charged forwards, and leaped into the air so that I was above the chasm of darkness.

"Here I come." I gritted my teeth as I dived into the ever lasting darkness to face Dark Gaia for a second time.

Ready or not Dark Gaia; here I come!

(LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK! LINE BREAK!)

Me (Soul): Well... That didn't end as I expected it to...

Thalia: Why did you just kill Sonic?!

Mephiles: Don't bother me... It is actually quite funny.

Me: Thalia, can you wrap this up while I kill Mephiles for tampering with my story.

Thalia: be my guest. Soul Rebirth will hunt those down who don't review. So the easiest thing to do is hit the little review button below here and save yourself from a very slow and painful death.
