Chapter 21 Plans

Circe had brought Chip to her throne room but she had tied his wings together and tied his hands up and forced him to walk in the direction she told him.

"What are you going to do to me?" he asked scared, "You'll find out soon" Circe answered, she was suddenly interrupted when one of her Beastamorphs approached and told her that the boss is waiting and it's time.

Circe brought Chip along with her and was met with the man she spoke with in her secret room before who was wearing a black cloak with a hood to hide his identity. He spoke with Circe in muffled whispers Chip couldn't make out.

Then Circe separated herself from the emeralds and put them in a circle and made the Master Emerald flout in the air in the middle of the circle. She caused the 7 emeralds all at once to blast rays of energy at the Master Emerald mixing all the energy together.

Then the Master emerald blasted a ray of energy to the ground to create something with immense power of all the emeralds, Chip attempted to get a closer look at what was being created but Beastamorphs blocked his view.

When it was over Circe reabsorbed the emeralds and placed the Master Emerald back on her staff, Chip noticed the man in the dark cloak pick up an item where the beam was shooting but immediately put it out of view as he walked up to him, however his face was concealed.

"Circe will make quick work of you, once our plan is complete not even Sonic will stop me." Said the man, "You will not get away with this!" said Chip confidently

"You are a fool; even if Circe fails there will be nothing to stop me you'll never find me." Chip gave the man an angry look but as he did Circe told him, "I'm going to kill you then take your necklace." Which made Chip really scared, he didn't want to die.

"Very good Circe, Ivy may have failed me but I know you won't." said the man, this shocked Chip and he asked "I-Ivy was working for you?" "That's right, I promised that she could have her plants roam the earth if she succeeded but I would never let her have her way."

"You will never succeed!" said Chip which made the man just chuckle and say "We can and will." As he finally vanished leaving him alone with Circe who just pulled a knife. "First I will take your life, then your power and then the world." She said as she raised her knife over his belly for a killing blow.

Chip desperately tried to concentrate his focus on his necklace and the small things Nightwatcher taught him about the necklace and managed to blast Circe away which angered her. He quickly escaped his bonds and flew away into the banquet room which Circe's throne room overlooks. He hid behind some drapes "That was a close one."
