Me: UPDATES!!! Also, there's a super battle here.
"This is where I'm smelling it," Valor said.
"Yuck! A dirty, old, abandoned house!" Sonia grimaced, "I'm not going in there."
Megaman was about to argue with her when…
"You're going," Roll said.
"No, I'm not," Sonia replied, "And there's nothing you can do to make me."
The two glared at each other before Roll grabbed Sonia's left arm and tossed her through the doors. Everyone just looked at her in shock or amazement.
"What? If I'm going in there, she has too," Roll argued when she noticed the looks before walking into the house.
Everyone just looked at each other before running in. The place was in the same color scheme as Solar City's palace. Megaman and Skye gasped in pain and fell on all fours. Both howled as they glowed and changed. The glow faded to reveal a deep red, hulking werewolf-like creature with Skye's eyes, now slit, and a semi-long tail and a deep blue version of the other creature with white highlights in its fur and Megaman's eyes. Both stood about two feet higher than the tallest of the group, Gutsman who was at 7'5."
"Seems even the Cyber World can't stop the changing," the deep red beast growled.
"I blame the Dark Power," the blue and white one snarled.
"Mega?!" Roll gasped.
"Ni-san?!" Maylu gasped.
"I'm Skye, he's Megaman," the deep red beast said, pointing at the blue and white one that had a depressed look on his face.
Suddenly, the shadows around them moved and reshaped into black and red creatures.
"What?!" Shadow gasped.
"Something wrong?" Protoman asked as his Proto-Sword formed.
"Those are Black Arms! What are they doing here?!" Mega-Wolf asked.
"Apparently, the Dark Power must have called them," Shadow said as he took out a strange red and black gun, "Stay out of this. They're mine."
He began to fire red and black lasers from the strange gun, each one turning the Black Creatures into dust. Everyone, minus Gutsman, Maylu, Protoman, Crimson, and Sonia, ran off. The group began to help Shadow fight the Black Creatures, much to Shadow's annoyance.
Two giant fists, one blue, one red, slamed open a pair of sealed double doors before everyone ran in. Mega-Wolf, Tails, and Knuckles all glared at the being before the group. The being seemed to form a human shape, but resembled more of a black and red twisted devil without the tails or legs. He wore a tattered royal-like outfit with three demonic red eyes glaring at them. His three-fingered claws twitched ever so slightly.
"Black Doom…" Mega-Wolf snarled as he bared his fangs at the being floating before them.
"You know him, Guts-guts?" Gutsman asked.
"Unfortunately, yes," Knuckles glared at the demonic being, "He's the leader of the Ex-Black Arms. He was suppose to be killed by Shadow years ago."
Black Doom chuckled. The chuckle made everyone feel their blood curl.
"It seems you have changed, Sonic," Black Doom said, "But where is my son, Shadow?"
"Son?!" everyone but the trio who knew this beast gasped.
"Right here," a voice said before Black Doom was kicked into the far wall.
Shadow lowered his foot.
"And for the record, my father was Prof. Gerald," Shadow glared at the leader of the Black Arms, "Not you, fucker."
"Uh oh…" Mega-Wolf gulped, "We, uh, might want to leave. Drop the Chaos Emeralds and just run."
Everyone nodded. They quickly dropped the five Chaos Emeralds they had and ran out while Shadow and Black Doom glared at each other.
"Once again, you have brought me the Chaos Emeralds," Black Doom chuckled.
"Sad that there's only six," Shadow said, "A girl has the seventh, and she knows how to fight."
"Black Bull, come forth and obtain the last Chaos Emerald!" Black Doom roared.
The ground split open before the group as a giant, red and black blob with horns, wings, and a giant yellow demonic eye emerged from it.
"Oi vey," Tails groaned.
The beast opened its mouth to reveal it just had four fangs before a long tongue shot out and took Maylu's Chaos Emerald.
"Hey!" Maylu cried, "Give that back! Teardrop Cascade!"
She fired off a weakened attack that just bounced off the beast's body. The beast used its tongue to throw the Chaos Emerald into a certain top story window.
"Ready, Lan?" Megaman asked.
"Ready!" Lan replied.
"PERFECT BEAST OUT SYNCHRO!" both shouted.
There was a flash of light that quickly faded to reveal Beast Megaman, but his armor was more feral than before. The only thing visible now on his face was his red eyes since everything else was covered in armor that resembled a lower jaw.
"You guys evacuate the city," Beast Megaman ordered, "I'll handle this while Shad takes on Black Doom."
Everyone nodded before running off towards the city. Once they were out of sight, Beast Megaman turned to Black Bull. He raised one hand at the beast. One minute, everything was fine. The next, everything was covered in green blood, red and black skin, and guts. You DON'T want to know how to describe it further. Just don't ask and we'll all be fine and not barfing in the nearby teacher's desk or trashcan or toilet, whichever one's closest.
"DANG IT, BLACK BULL!" Black Doom barked as he was clonked on the back of the head by the Chaos Emerald, "YOU'RE PAYING FOR THAT!"
Shadow reloaded his new gun as he took out his gun filled with Eclipse Cannon Charges. Black Doom cackled. If his chuckle made blood curl, this would make anyone's blood burst and make them barf.
"You will not win like you did last time, Shadow," Black Doom said before warping away with the Negative Energy of the Chaos Emeralds.
Shadow frowned before he closed his eyes and concentrated. The now gray Chaos Emeralds began to return to their original, glowing colors as they floated and spun around Shadow. He began to shake as he crossed his arms across his body. There was a flash of light and Shadow was now floating with his black quills now platinum. He then warped after Black Doom.
"Shadow, you shall pay for destroying the Black Comet and betraying the Black Arms!" a hulking tri-headed, black and red, six winged and armed, legless, and single floating tentacle-covered eye roared as it floated above Cyber City, "I, Black Chaos Devil, shall make sure of it!"
Super Shadow just flicked the beast off.
"Dang it!" Lan growled as he and Megaman, separated, ran up to the others.
"This isn't going to be good," Megaman said, "I can see that no one is ready to evacuate the city. URK!"
Suddenly, everyone became immobilized.
"Not again…" Knuckles groaned as his eyes looked up at the sky.
"Lucky little black fuzzball," Megaman muttered.
Super Shadow clonked Megaman on the back of the head before warping back to above the city. Black Chaos Devil fired intense flames from all three of his mouths. Shadow summoned a Chaos Shield, letting the flames not touch him, before shooting off a charged up Chaos Spear into the middle head, the one with the eye.
"ARG!" Black Chaos Devil roared as the eye popped out and went to another head, "DAMN YOU, SHADOW!"
Soon, Super Shadow had managed to get Black Chaos Devil to get his eye to move from each head three times each.
"Prepare yourself, Black Doom," Super Shadow said as he took off his rings, "I AM SHADOW! SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG!"
His aura sextupled in size as it and Super Shadow became pure red.
"CHAOS…" Super Shadow began.
He warped to the middle head, gripping the eye.
"…BLAST!!!"
There was an enormous red sphere of light in the air above the city.
"NOOOO!!!! WHY?! THE BLACK ARMS SHOULD AVE WON THIS TIME!!!" were the last words of Black Chaos Devil before he was annihilated.
Super Shadow landed in the city before snapping his fingers. He and those who entered Cyber City through the barrier line before the area, including Cyber City, vanished back to the Cyber World. Shadow lost Super Form as Chaud and Sakura slowly woke.
"This is the end of you, Black Doom," Shadow said, "As well as my cursed past."
An 'A-Rank' medal appeared in Shadow's hand along with 1000 Rings.
"We're going to need to get a bank account that Manic doesn't know the password to for all this money we're getting," Sonia said.
Skye, now a Hedgewolf, was outside on the roof, gazing at the stars.
"So how was it?" a voice asked.
Skye turned to see White coming up.
"How was what?" Skye asked.
"How was it to not be Mobian again?" White asked.
"It felt… wrong," Skye replied, "I wasn't human, yet I wasn't Mobian. I was a NetNavi. It kinda chilled my bones."
"Don't worry, Sir," White said, "I'm sure you'll be able to get back home as a human."
Skye nodded. He then heard a long stream of curses. The two looked to see Valor had once more gotten his tails tied up.
"Why doesn't he just give up on that?" White asked.
"He's stubborn, that's what," Skye guessed.
Me: Valor's just not giving up on that just yet.
Kyuubi: I swear. That's a recurring joke, isn't it?
