Into the Blue

Trapped

Silver: And chapter 21! He's back!

Trapped

I wake up… feeling stiff and sore… only to realize that I slept under a tree with a hallow part in it. Ugh… I crawled out and does some stretching and… it is midnight already?

I take out my phone to see the time… 15 Unknown caller... That can't be right… 9 am? What the! Then my phone rings, it's my brother… ugh, I really don't want to talk about it still my finger presses the green button and I answered it.

"Esen! Er… Sonic! Where are you?" Lycus said as I rub my head from headache.

"I slept stiff." I said in a annoyed tone.

"Not smart." he said casually as if everything is normal… Lycus, nothing is normal when I'm not your sister… er, brother… Do'h, never mind.

"Anyway, Fortune has been trying to contact you but you don't answer." he said, that explained the 15 unknown calls... we should've exchange numbers. "Something's going on and she needs you at Luneta Park now.

"Can't she do it on her own." I asked, not wanting to do anything but to sulk right now. Of course, the hero in me protested on that.

"Sonic, it's Mephiles, he's on the park right now, doing… whatever doohickey or mumbo-jumbo there." he stated as I heard the weather taking a bad turn. "… Esen… you're still my sibling no matter what, okay?"

"… Mom and dad…?" I asked weakly.

"… Silent as a dead paperweight…" he replied then I shut the phone. I then head off to the said place.

:::^*^:::

Arriving there, I nearly step back on the sight.

Mephiles' minions everywhere, on the ground, the sky and on the buildings. And let's not forget that there are dead bodies of police around… I feel like I'm going to puke on this spot right now.

Anyway, I meet up with Lunar on the car's roof. "Hey… how are you feeling?" she asked.

"Stiff." I replied.

"I understand, but we have to stop him from getting Iblis into this world." she said as she hops off the roof.

"How will he do that?" I asked.

"A horrible price." She uttered… "Back in our world, the population there is millions but not too much to overpopulate a city or an country… However, here, it reached a hundred million people and it over populates this city or a country supposed to have."

"Right, what does that suppose to mean?" I asked.

"Mephiles found a way to get Iblis into this world… Mammon and I found a ruin, depicting how he will get him here." she stated, as the Takers came and we endes up fighting it out of the air. "With all of the Chaos Emeralds, he can lead it here… but if one has an incomplete set… one must uses something else equivalent or near to the power of the Emeralds."

"Well, he got four Emeralds now, but what… wait, are you saying!" I said in shock, realizing what he's planning.

"He's insane!" Sonic yelped.

"That's right… he's planning on sacrificing a hundred million lives and he now entirely trapped this country in a dimension field." Lunar stated, then the earth shakes as the thunder rumbles in the sky. "We have no choice, we can't waste anymore time, those seven Cuores will have to do."

I nodded in respond and I carry her as we head to the park… where Mephiles is.

:::^*^:::

We arrive at the scene where Mephiles is using the power of the Emeralds and tossing some dead bodies into the fire. "I see, you came." he stated. "You saw how horrible this world is, isn't it?"

"Shut it, you crazy brain!" Lunar quickly shouts back and quickly stands in front of me. "Of course, the world is chaotic but it doesn't mean ending everything will solve it!"

The crystal hedgehog laugh as he kicks another body inside. "Oh… then why do they ever wished to erase their mistakes?" he asked and with a twirl of his fingers, he shows an image and voices of people praying and wishing to redo everything and to remove their mistakes.

"Don't tell me…" Lunar said and looks at the crystal hedgehog.

"Yes, I'm merely granting their wishes." he stated. "After all, the only way to erase those mistakes is by destroying time itself! That way no mistakes will exist."

"Mephiles!" Luce shouts and she came out of the armlet. "It's not right! Killing time itself is not the solution!"

"Ah… it's good to see you, Luce." he stated as four of the Chaos Emeralds floated behind him. "It's a pity that the eight part of the heart is still missing."

"Idiot."

Huh? 'Did you hear that?'

"Hear what?" Cassiopeia asked.

"I hear nothing." Rio replied.

"Same here!" both Aki and Ame said in unison.

"I did." Sonic said.

'You heard it? But not you guys? … Weird.'

"Now, it is time to…" but he never finished his speech when Tama charges at him and Shiho flies over them, taking the Emeralds from him… wait, when did they planned this? Once they got it… Damn it, again with the emeralds and the head! Very smart, Shiho, Very smart… OW…!

"Quick! Use the Emeralds!" Lunar stated as Tama holds Mephiles back, she even toss the remaining Emeralds at me… "Transform into your Super Form to beat him!"

"Uh… Okay." I said meekly and quite clueless on how to use it, as I carry all of the gems in my arms. "Uh… How…?"

"Just close you eyes and focus on the gems." Sonic instructed.

'Okay…' I closes my eyes and focus on the Emeralds… I felt something smooth as silk brushing against me and it seems… Suddenly, a great pain came to me and I scream along with Sonic.

:::^Luna's/Fortune's P.O.V.^:::

I kept my eyes on that damn hedgehog when I heard a scream behind me. I turn to see Sonic screaming in pain as scratches and cuts suddenly appears on his body, and he quickly drops the Emeralds to hold his head as if it is going to explode.

"Sonic!" I yelled and rush to his side, Tama and the other Cuores also came to his side to see if he's okay. "Damn it, that's wrong with him." as he fainted.

Then I heard Mephiles laugh. "That fat fool really did a good job on sealing his Chaos Force." he stated. "Pity, that his speed wasn't sealed along with it."

Damn it, suddenly he appears in front of me and punch me on the face.

GAH!

"And to properly finish the job…" the damn monster raises his glowing hand… crud, don't!

Suddenly a clam attacks him, by hitting him smartly on the head and then wraps the blue hero into a orange shield… then when it disappears… so does he.

"No way…" I uttered.

"Don't fret, the Wind only sent him and the others to safety, along with the Chaos Emeralds."

"Who's there?" I demanded.

"I'm Luce, the Ceu Cuore… now please flee this place. I'll trap him and his minions in here."

"Ugh… But Sonic… are you…"

"Don't worry, they meet Vent… I promise."

Without much of a choice and trusting this Cuore, I quickly run away from the park as the orange shield went up again and is expanding to cover more grounds.

:::^Sonic's/Esen's P.O.V.^:::

… Ow… I'll never use those emeralds again…

"That's the first time they did that to me…" Sonic complained.

I agree with him and I get up… only to see a different place, a lush forest and a gray sky hung over me. "Whoa… where am I?" I asked, when suddenly I heard a huge explosion and guess what? A piece of a body part nearly land on me with blood splattering on my shoes. "Holy crap!" I yelped and jumps away. I then look to the source of the explosion and ran off to see what's going on.

Silver: Now… where did she landed?

P.S. Damn it... Why does this fic doesn't move to first page or the top list when I updated? I have to do it again somehow to make it move!
