As I heard the peaceful, soft breathing of the future father of my baby in deep sleep, I made my move and flipped out of his arms, him just rolling on his side as if I did. The reason for me getting up in the middle of the night is the same as last time, freeing the slaves, I know Knuckles said he would but I just couldnt leave not knowing when or if they would succeed.
Before leaving the house, I glanced at Shadow and left a note, explaining him to get the emerald and wait outside the castle if he wakes up early. Which I guaranteed since he was always up before dawn at his desk back at the castle.
'Sorry Shad, but if I told you, you'd never approve of me going alone with the baby.' I thought, running out at the speed of light across the quiet town of the echidnas all the way to the deathtrap castle.
Sneaking in, I crawled along the walls with my claws, deciding to start with the slaves in the dungeons, beating anyone who got in my way or any damn guards I wasnt in the mood for.
Seeing about a dozen or two doors, I started with the first one on the right and got to work. Inside was a chameleon that was about magenta or purple, he had a yellow horn and gold eyes, wearing black and purple shoes. Espio.
"S-stay back, I cant take all this torture anymore." Espio shivered, but I smiled sweetly and cut the shackles that kept him here and raised a paw to his head. Saying a chant I picked up from the bookstore in Knuckles tribe, Espio's cuts and bruises healed and I became a little dizzy but regained control.
"I am here to free the slaves Espio the ninja, so will you help me out?" I asked, being that I just freed and healed him, he nodded. I was glad I found him because who better to sneak around a building than a ninja?
Though he wasnt the only one I knew, there was another I supposed was his anti but not so much. His name was Lightning the Lynx, a brown and black ninja from a different clan who had a pretty hard life.
Except he wasnt exactly in the next dungeon, that belonged to Tails who I did the same with and it continued through all the dungeons until we were done. As a total, I had seen Tails, Espio, Vector, Charmy, Sleuth Dawg from the Sonic the hedgehog comic times, Sally Acorn, Fiona the Fox, Scourge the hedgehog, and Sonic the hedgehog in dungeons and pretty messed up when I found them.
But what I couldnt believe was he was torturing a princess of the Acorn Kingdom, and that he was really torturing the anti rulers of Anti Mobius here, Scourge and Fiona so it seemed.
"Alright, now you guys should get out of here and either go to Acorn Castle or the Echidna Village across the forest. And as for you anti's or whatever, just go back to your world." I instructed, running off while Scourge flipped a warp ring to Anti Mobius, jumping through with Fiona amd Sleuth Dawg, Sonic ran with Sally and Tails to the Acorn Kingdom. Lastly, the Chaotix went to the echidna tribe to rejoin their friend Knuckles.
Once they were all out safe, I went up to release BlackDooms slave servants, knowing he was asleep as usual. But if not, ill beat him too.
Walking into the kitchen I saw three girls, Amy, Cream, and Rouge that were all wearing white bracelets as to assign them their jobs as bakers or cooks. Rouge I had last seen in the village, perhaps she had been found out for losing the dark emerald by mistake and ended up here, but then I figured she was a jewel thief back on Mobius, she's a jewel thief here too.
"Hey girls, your torture is over." I said, slashing the collars off without a scratch on any of them. At first, they looked scared but knew I was here to help them, so Amy smashed a wall down with her piko-piko hammer.
"Oh ive missed that, but not as much as I miss my Sonikku!" Amy said, running out with Cream while Rouge flew off into the night with a smile.
So that was the kitchen slaves taken care of, now for the cleaning and other possible sex slaves out and then I was home free without a trace. Seeing the sky getting lighter like an ocean blue, I knew I had to hurry. Lucky for me, I found a list of slaves around so there was only 4 cleaning slaves and two sex slaves. And I was going to free Arctic too of course, she's my sister and maybe she could get a real job as a nurse instead of just to the king with no pay.
'Alright the names are, Mina Mongoose, Tikal, Julie-Su, and Bunnie Rabbot. And for the bed slaves, two more females, Sonia and Anti Sally, or Princess Alicia from Anti Mobius as well.' I thought, dashing around and one by one found the slaves.
The cleaning slaves had black collars with a little pearl on the front like most maid outfits, and had the rest of the outfit worn as well. Slashing off the black collars one by one, the two echidnas returned to the tribe while Mina and Bunnie went to the Acorn Kingdom.
"Now for the bed slaves." I muttered, walking around while I thought of something. As much as I hated those two pricks, I hadnt seen head or tail of Ginger or Mephiles for a while now.
It was like they were either luring me into a false sense of security or wanting me to free them. But that didnt matter, the sun would be rising soon and I was running out of time. Thankfully it was just those two slaves than Arctic.
Bashing down a door, I saw Sonia shivering on a bed with some tears in her eyes, I walked over to the poor thing.
"Its okay, im here to help you." I said, cutting off the pink collar with my claws. When it fell to the floor, she looked at me as if this was only a dream. But it was too real. "Mephiles or those other jerks cant hurt you anymore hon." I said, the magenta hedgehog nodded and ran as fast as Sonic to the Acorn Kingdom like the rest. Looking at the chart, I saw the room Anti Sally was in last to see if she could possibly still be there while I had a warp ring in my hand to get her back.
Kicking the door open, I saw the Anti Sally wince at the light from the hallway, she looked tough but I could see she had been crying a while like Sonia. I simply cut off the collar and gave her the ring. She smiled at me and opened the ring warp, inside was what looked like Anti Tails or Miles, seeing that she liked him or something and jumped in without trouble and it closed behind her.
"Good. Now for my sis and im out." I said, running out to the doctors lab to see her at the desk. She looked tired like she hadnt slept in days. But that wasnt the worse part, I found out how Ginger got the info on me being pregnant, they had beaten her.
"Arctic." I said, she looked up startled.
"W-what are you doing here?" She asked, shaking.
"Its okay, take anything ya need, your getting out of here." I said, I admit she was hesitant about leaving in fear of BlackDoom but I told her she shouldnt have to worry. I quickly grabbed her and flew off to the Echidna tribe while the sun was slowly rising.
If only I knew that some people I couldnt stand were following me.
When I returned, I stopped in front of the tribe medical center where she looked confused.
"This is where you should work, where you get paid and appreciated." I said, she smiled and had tears in her eyes now. She hugged me tight but I winced as the bump was hurting a little.
"Oops, sorry." She said, giggling a little while letting go as I giggled myself.
"Well hon, just keep and eye on Knuckles and the others, make sure they dont get in trouble and such." I said, seeing her nod, she went inside while I dashed off to where Shadow was but saw ahead was the cat and hedgehog I couldnt stand.
Luckily I saw Shadow outside nearby with the Dark Emerald, powered up and ready to go but looked annoyed that I left. I ran to him before Ginger and Mephiles could even speak.
"Babe, we gotta go!" I yelled, he saw me running on all fours like a wolf his way to build speed. He yelled Chaos Control, throwing the emerald down as the warp opened. It was to keep the dark emerald here so there'd be seven to keep the universe in sync or whatever. I jumped in with him without hesistation.
Though back in the world, Mephiles chuckled evilly and jumped in as well with Ginger close behind.
