Chapter 48: Noxus Empire

Sonic, Kenny, and Spiral arrived to the city of the Noxus Empire disguising themselves by wearing cloaks to hide their identity from drawing any attention to the guards and snuck their way in. They even stumbled a nearby bar and enter inside to grab a drink while Kenny eat a piece of fish. Kenny check on the map and the status of the Empire of Noxus.

"What we got Kenny?" Sonic asked.

"Well all I can say is that this placed is heavily guarded with guards." Kenny informed.

"No kidding, we have to sneak our way to this place from the city walls." Spiral reminded.

"That's true. What about the sixth stone, did you find it?" Sonic questioned.

"No but it is somewhere in the castle. I can't find out where it is." Kenny answered.

"If that's the case, what are we going to do with the guards, they're like everywhere?" Spiral inquired.

"Well we'll just going to sneak our way to the castle undetected and don't get caught. I can't use my sonic speed otherwise it'll bring suspicions to the guards." Sonic stated.

"Well any ideas?"

"I'm glad that you asked that because I have an idea in mind." Kenny informed.

"You do?"

"Yeah. Here is what we're going to do."

Kenny go through his backpack and pulls out two Bluetooth headsets and gives them to Sonic and Spiral.

"I made these just in case for like this happen. I even made another one too and I'll broadcast you guys with these. Now here's what we're going to do. The city has like six alarm bells and they can be a pain in the ass to set off the alarm for the guards. I've marked each of them on the map here. You guys take out three alarms each. I'll detect the guards along the way using my laptop to scan for any guards coming or nearby during your objectives." Kenny planned.

"Ok then, so we're using stealth on this right?" Spiral asked.

"That's right, something that you're very good at Spiral."

"Indeed it is, you ready for this cousin?"

"Oh yeah. Let's get started." Sonic smirked.

"Then it's settled, once the alarms had been neutralized, I'll mark the rendezvous point to meet up and plan for the castle to sneak in." Kenny stated.

"OK then, let's get to work."

"Right." Spiral nodded.

"Don't screw this up guys, this is our one shot at this."

"We won't."

"That's right, it'll be easy as pie." Sonic proclaimed.

"Sure it is cousin."


Fairy Tail, Magnolia Town…

Jim waited for his partner to return while the others continue on with their usual routine and hang out. Mirajane walks to Jim and gives a glass of juice like he requested.

"Hey Jim, where's Zack?" Mirajane asked.

"At the library reading and interesting book that he found when he visited the library the other day. I wonder what caught his interest by the book he discovered." Jim answered rubbing his chin.

"He didn't tell you why he's going to a library?"

"No. Not at all, he didn't say anything. Did he tell you?"

"No he has not, speaking of which we haven't been on any dates lately since he's been training a lot and ever had any time to spend time with me."

"I noticed. I'm thinking that Zack is hiding something."

"I don't think he's hiding something. I think that he doesn't want to spoil a good book that he have read that is good. I think that's right so far."

"Perhaps you're right. Forgive me for that remark."

"No, no it's fine. You're just concern for your partner."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Moments after, Zack returns back to the guild and meets up with Jim.

"Hey Jim, sorry for taking so long." Zack apologized.

"It's fine, how did to go reading that book that caught interest?" Jim asked.

"It was really good. I've read the whole thing."

"That's good to hear, so are we ready to go on a job?"

"Yeah sure, let's find us a job and get going to earn some jewel."

Mirajane walks towards her lover and kisses him on the cheek.

"Zack, how did the book go?" Mirajane asked.

"It was really good. Sorry if I made you worry about me." Zack responded apologizing.

"No it's fine, I'm glad that you're ok and enjoy reading a nice good book."

Zack smile to Mirajane before he and his exceed partner grab themselves a job request, letting Mirajane notified the job before they can leave.


Noxus Empire…

*Track begin playing: Espirit De Corps (Modern Warfare 2)*

Sonic and Spiral remain in the shadows, still wearing their cloaks from avoiding any attention. They both head to different locations where the alarm bells is being located on the by Kenny who hide in the shadows and locating and notifying any activity or nearby guards during their objectives.

"Ok guys, you're clear and get the job done but quietly we don't want to draw any attention." Kenny communicated.

"Roger." Spiral nodded.

"Don't worry Kenny, we'll get it done it'll be like fish in a barrel." Sonic smirked.

"It sure will cousin."

Sonic and Spiral continue to head to their destination. Sonic uses his speed to arrive to his first destination, secretly knockout the guards quietly and disabled the first alarm bell. Spiral using his fighting style and beat down the guards but quietly and then disabled the first alarm bell and goes for the second bell. Spiral uses a rope to slide down to the ground and heads to his next destination. Sonic jumping from rooftop after rooftop to heads to his next destination. Sonic forgot that he has a bow with him that Kenny made for him so he then uses it for his advantage, he takes out his arrow, points it and aims his bow at one of the guards and second later he takes a shot and takes down the first guard. Sonic then goes for another guard using his bow to silently taking them out. After seconds of taking the guards out, Sonic then disables the second alarm bell and goes for the third and final alarm bell.

Spiral use his wind dragon slayer magic to suffocating the guards silently and disables the second alarm bell and heads towards the final alarm bell. Spiral hid away quickly before any guards could spot him as they were walking by in the streets.

"That was a close one." Spiral whispered commenting.

"Everything ok Spiral?" Kenny communicated.

"Yeah almost got caught by the guards but I'm fine."

"Good. If we get compromised then it's all over."

"I know, I won't let that happen."

Spiral resume to complete his objective. Sonic had already made it to his third and final location where the third alarm bell is located. Sonic uses his speed and start homing attacking few guards and uses summersault on them to knock them on the ground and spin dash through them to knock them unconscious. Sonic then disables the third and final alarm bell completing his objective and communicated Kenny using his Bluetooth.

"Kenny, I've completed my job." Sonic informed.

"I know, great job. How's your end Spiral, did you complete your objective." Kenny communicated.

Spiral didn't responds as he just only fought and knock out a few guards and disables the third and final alarm bell.

"Just completed it. Everything's looking good here." Spiral responded through his Bluetooth.

"Good. I've marked the locations of our rendezvous point, I'll meet you guys there." Kenny notified.

"OK. See you there buddy." Sonic responded.

"I'll meet you there." Spiral said.

And so Team Sonic meet and regroup at the rendezvous point and arrive in minutes. Sonic had arrive there in seconds while Kenny and Spiral took their time to meet up.

"You guys made it." Sonic said waving at them.

"You sure got here fast." Spiral commented.

"What can I say, I'm the words fastest hedgehog."

"OK now that we're here so the alarms are disabled. Now that we don't have to worry about the guards raising the alarm, we can now enter inside the citadel." Kenny said.

"Any ideas of how we can get inside?" Spiral asked.

"I think I know a way in." Sonic stated.

"Like what?"

"Using Chaos Control."

"Oh man, why didn't I think of that?" Kenny face palmed.

"Don't worry, we'll get in the castle without drawing any attention from the guards."

"OK cousin, let's go." Spiral said.

Spiral and Kenny gets close to Sonic ready to leave. Sonic transforms into Super Sonic and activate his ability.

"Chaos Control!" Sonic shouted.

The team teleported out of sight as they make their way to the castle.


Noxus Castle…

Swain and his members of the Noxus: Darius, Draven, Katarina, and Talon walking through the hallways of the citadel of Noxus.

"I cannot believe you three failed me to capture Sonic and his cat." Swain said in an anger tone.

"We failed you my lord, don't have any leads of their whereabouts." Darius informed.

"Which they got away." Katarina added.

"And yet you three failed me. No matter, we'll about that later but right now we have plans that we've yet to discuss."

"Of course." Darius understood.

"I still can't believe I was defeated by that hedgehog runt." Draven complained.

"We'll about that later but right now we have matters to attend to like how Swain mentioned." Talon stated.


Somewhere in Noxus Citadel…

Team Sonic arrives in the citadel and they look around while Sonic revert back to normal.

"This sure looks like Dracula's castle." Spiral commented.

"You said it." Sonic agreed while looking around.

Kenny was busy tracking the last stone down until he has a read.

"Guys I got the location of where to find the last stone." Kenny informed.

"Really, where?" Sonic asked.

"It's only like eleven miles to claim the stone and it is in a vault."

"Then that's where we'll go."

"Then let's get moving and get out of this place." Spiral gestured.

"Let's roll."

Team Sonic then proceeds to the destination of the last stone is being held. Until all of sudden, the guards spotted them and raise the alarm, alerting there are intruders inside. Sonic and the team hear the alarms and know they're in a fight. They see the guards up ahead so Sonic then dashes on ahead and uses Sonic Boost to bash them out of the way and Spiral uses his wind dragon slayer magic to add the advantage to wipe out the guards.


With Swain and the others…

They hear the alarms going off alerting them there are intruders in the citadel.

"Intruders?! Here in the citadel?" Swain questioned.

"We'll check out who are the intruders." Darius said he rushes to the scene followed by Katarina, Talon, and Draven.


With Team Sonic…

Team Sonic fought their way to the last stone by dealing with a couple of guards along the way. Sonic and Spiral work together to fight off the guards even Kenny uses his staff to fight off the guards as well. As the team continue their way to the vault until all of sudden, Sonic's ears perk up notifying him an incoming attack so he turns around to see a volley of daggers flown towards him. Sonic using his reflexes to dodge the daggers so did Spiral who sees it coming and dodge from the daggers, Kenny sees the daggers and gets out of range. Team Sonic looks on to see Talon who had thrown the daggers but he wasn't alone, there was Darius, Draven, and Katarina appearing with Talon.

"It's Sonic and the cat again." Darius pointed out.

"Good no I get to have my rematch against the hedgehog after all." Draven smirked.

"That's not all of that, there's two of them now." Katarina acknowledged.

"So you're helping Sonic huh?"

"Yeah and he's my cousin." Spiral answered truthfully.

"A cousin huh, you guys can deal with Sonic, I got his cousin." Draven said.

Draven draw out his massive axes and charges at Spiral. Spiral dashes to Draven and hits him with a spinning roundhouse kick sending flying through a wall breaking through it and pursues after Draven to fight him. Sonic and Kenny took their attentions to Darius, Talon, and Katarina who were ready to fight.

"Kenny, go to the vault while I hold off these guys." Sonic commanded.

"Right." Kenny understood.

Kenny activate his wings and took off. Katarina draw out her blades and went after the exceed. Darius readied his axe to strike at the hedgehog hero.

"This time you will be defeated Sonic." Darius determined.

"I like to see you try to defeat me." Sonic taunted.

Darius growled, he had then begin charging at Sonic gripping his axe and begun to swing his axe at him. Sonic draw out his sword and blocks the axe and pushes Darius away and uses Sonic Slash at him. Darius ducked down the slash waves made by Sonic and then surprises Sonic with his ability to counter it.

"Apprehend!" Darius shouted.

Darius uses his axe's hook to pull Sonic and then uses Decimate hitting Sonic right after he pulls him close and sends him flying two feet away to the ground. Talon joins in the fight so he jumps up in the air and use his ability as well.

"Rake!" Talon shouted.

Talon throw a volley of daggers to Sonic, Sonic using his sword to deflect the daggers and counters Talon off by using Wind Slash bringing him down to the ground. Darius rushing in to use this as an advantage by activating Noxian Guillotine by leaping up in the air and slams his axe down to deliver a lethal blow at Sonic. Sonic use his Chaos Sense and gets out of the way using his reflexes. Afterward, Sonic hits Darius with his spin dash and homing attacks Talon but the blade's shadow jumps out of the way and afterwards using Rake once more. Sonic senses it once again and did a back flip to dodge the incoming daggers coming to his way and lands the ground perfectly. Darius took this as an opportunity and so he then struck Sonic using his axe to deliver a surprise sneak attack towards him as Sonic crashes to the wall. Darius dash and collides his axe against Sonic's sword and glaring daggers at him.

"I know why you're here, you're here for the stone that we're keeping." Darius figured out.

"Yeah what if I am, we're here to collect the stone and be on our way." Sonic countered.

"That's where you are wrong Sonic, you will not have the stone not when I'm here."

"*Laugh* I beat you once and I can do it again."

"Not if I can help it." Talon intervened.

Talon activating his ability by having his blades spinning around to strike by using Noxian Diplomacy. Talon rushes over to Sonic to harm him but Sonic smiled, he jumps over Darius and delivers a spinning roundhouse kick towards him and the two characters crash into one another. Sonic start laughing at them at first but it was stopped by a splitting second when Talon threw his dagger at Sonic.

"Whoa I did not see that coming." Sonic commented.

"Better get used to it, I'm going to come after you with my daggers." Talon said pulling out his daggers.

"This can't be good."


With Spiral…

Spiral dodging the massive daggers from Draven from trying to harm him with his massive weapons.

"I'm going to execute you then I'm coming after your cousin runt." Draven threatened.

"You know that is not going to happen." Spiral countered.

"Like I care, I will make you guys my trophies including that cat friend of his. Whirling Death!"

Draven hurls his two massive axes over at Spiral. The wind dragon slayer then get out of dodge and then surprises the executioner by dashes towards Draven with his wind dragon slayer abilities and surprising him with a strike to put him down.

"Wind Dragon Terrifying Fist!" Spiral shouted.

Spiral engulfs his fist with wind and delivers a striking blow right to his jaw and sends him flying towards the wall and came crashing to it and even breaks through the wall and felt unconscious. Spiral brush his hands off and smirked.

"Well that was easy, I just wanted to get that over with. Now on to the vault to help Kenny, I'm pretty sure that he need some help." Spiral said before taking off to help Sonic's exceed partner.


The Vault…

Kenny arrives to the vault in the nick of time while avoiding being spotted by the guards.

"Here's the vault, now time to open this and get the stone." Kenny said.

Just before Kenny would open the vault, a few daggers is being thrown towards him. Kenny sees it coming and rolls out of the way and he then encounters Katarina in the act and smiles over to him.

"Hello cat, did you miss me?" Katarina teased.

"No but you will not stop me from getting the stone." Kenny countered pulling out his staff.

"Easy cat, I don't want to fight you nor kill you, I'm here to help you."

"What?"

"I'm here to help you, I even have someone with me to help as well."

"Then why did you attacked me and my best friend?"

"It was only not to be compromised of my objective and my main goal."

"So you say, how do I know you are not going to hurt me."

"Because I know the codes of the vault here."

"Oh well ok then, I guess I believe you."

"Good now we're square."

Katarina was only about to enter the codes until Spiral intervened and strikes Katarina out of nowhere and pins her against the wall.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Spiral threatened.

Kenny stopped Spiral from harming Katarina.

"Spiral stop, it's alright she's on our side." Kenny reasoned.

"That what she wants you to think, she's scheming you to kill you right after you grab the stone." Spiral countered.

"It's the truth, she's with us and determine to take down her boss."

"Is that so?"

"Of course, let me go and I'll get you guys in the vault to claim that last stone you guys have been searching for." Katarina demanded.

Spiral nod his head and let's go of Katarina. The sinister blade put the codes in and opens up the vault for Kenny and Spiral.

"There you have it, come on I'll show you guys where Swain has hidden the stone." Katarina gestured.

Spiral looks at Kenny, shrug their shoulders and follows the assassin to the sixth stone.


Back to Sonic…

Sonic continue fighting off Darius and Talon as they try their very best to defeat Sonic. Darius continue to swing his axe towards Sonic and Sonic kept dodging away from the daggers thrown by Talon. Sonic try his best to keep focus on the two of his opponents but a second after he slip up when all of sudden, a dagger is being thrown by Talon and struck him in the shoulder. Sonic shrieked feeling the pain and Darius then uses Decimate against Sonic and hits him with the brutal strike, Sonic is sent flying towards the wall, hits himself on the back and collapse on the ground. Darius then approaches Sonic by stomping him on the ground and readied his axe.

"Now that I have you where I want you, time for me to end you once and for all." Darius said preparing his axe.

"I wouldn't count on it." Sonic doubted.

"Well se about that Sonic."

Darius readied his axe and he is seconds away to end Sonic's life but all of sudden, something that hit him or Sonic. Sonic had closed his eyes hoping it didn't hit him but turns out it didn't get him, he looked around only to see Darius rolled his eyes, a second after he collapse to the ground and there was blood sprawling on the ground from Darius creating a small puddle. Sonic look on only to see Talon who was the one that killed Darius.

"You saved my life?" Sonic questioned.

"Yes. I am the one that killed Darius and I even took care of Draven his brother as well." Talon answered truthfully.

"Wait Draven and Darius are brothers?"

"Yes. Now they won't be a problem, now we got to meet with your friends. Katarina is with them."

"How did you know?"

"Because we planned this when the time is right when you guys arrive."

"Really? Why am I'm not surprised. You attacked me and helped Darius to defeat me and now you want to help me?"

"Yes."

"Well you did killed Darius and you took care of Draven like you mentioned before. Was he defeated by my cousin?"

"Yes and he's with your partner and Katarina as we speak."

"OK… well I guess I can believe you. Alright, let's go and where is the vault?"

"I'll take us there, come on."

Sonic nod his head, gets up on his feet and follows Talon to the vault.


The Vault…

Spiral and Kenny followed the sinister blade to the stone. They took a long walk downstairs all the way down to the ground and reach their destination, they then see the purple gem at the small table. The three reaches to the stone and examines it.

"There it is, the sixth stone of the Elements of Harmony." Kenny said.

"It sure is, we finally have it." Spiral said.

"Told you I get you guys to the stone didn't I." Katarina smiled crossing her arms under her breasts.

"You did and now we're here."

"Hey guys."

The trio heard the voice so they turn their attentions over behind them sees Sonic and Talon arriving to the fray and walks to the stone.

"The last stone right?" Sonic directed.

"It sure is, the last one we've been looking for and here it is." Kenny proclaimed.

"That's great, now we can get out of the island and return home."

"Looks like your quest is over Sonic." Spiral commented patting his cousin on his back.

"I do not think so." An evil voiced interfered.

Everyone turn their attentions over to Swain who arrived to the place.

"Swain." Katarina and Talon said in unison.

"That's his name?" Sonic inquired.

"I believe it is cousin." Spiral believed.

"How dare you betray me Talon and Katarina, I trusted you and now you Talon had killed Darius and Draven. You will regret for killing my two loyalty members of my empire." Swain snarled.

"We've planned to end you right from the start Swain." Katarina confessed.

"I knew I should've not trusted you two traitors. However, you all will never leave this place alive once I killed all of you."

"If it's a fight you want…" Sonic started.

Sonic transforms into his Fire Sonic form but not all that, he transforms into his Fire-Volt Sonic form controlling fire and lightning.

"Then bring it on." Sonic finished.

Talon was ready to strike until all of sudden, Swain's pet raven appear out of the blue and attacks Talon and weakens him and returns to Swain.

"Talon!" Katarina cried.

"You all will be joining him very soon." Swain stated powering his magic.

"Kenny, get the stone, takes Katarina and Talon out of here, me and Spiral will deal with this scum." Sonic commanded.

"Right." Kenny obeyed.

"No. I want to fight with you guys." Katarina debated.

"There's no time, Talon needs you more than ever so he needs someone to protect him." Sonic reasoned.

"I… you're right. Give him hell cutie."

"None of you will be going anywhere, that stone is mine. Aaaaaaaaaaaaargh!" Swain screamed.

"What is he doing?" Spiral asked.

"He's going to transform?" Katarina answered.

"Into what?" Sonic inquired.

Soon Sonic get his answer when Swain begin to change, he had then transforming into a bird figure but an anthropomorphic raven and power up with his magic and roared.

"Now the odds are even. I will kill you all." Swain said in a dark deep voice.

"Not if I can help it." Sonic countered.

Sonic power his power and dashes on towards Swain and bashes him using Fire-Lightning Bash using his seed and delivering a flying kick out of sight and out of the vault and Spiral joins Sonic to the fight. Kenny grabs the stone and puts it in his backpack and gets Katarina and the weakened Talon out of sight.


With Sonic and Spiral…

Sonic takes Swain out of the vault as they arrive over to the courtyard of the citadel and Sonic slams down Swain and then dive kicks him down to the ground creating an impact towards the ground. Sonic backs away and get to his stance. Spiral arrive in the nick of time and joins with his cousin.

"Glad you can show up, I thought you was going to chicken out." Sonic joked.

"No way Sonic but good one." Spiral smiled.

Swain gets up on his feet and glares at the two hedgehogs.

"You just made me MAD!" Swain shouted.

Swain dashes over at Sonic and Spiral and shoulder tackles them out of the courtyard and slams them on the ground rumbling and grinding against the ground which creates a trail of rubble. Swain takes them through the hallways roaring during his attack, Sonic uses homing attack to bash him towards the ceiling and Spiral then take the chance and hits him with his Wind Dragon Terrifying Fist to the wall and Swain crashes it creating some cracks against the wall.

Swain summons his staff and shoots massive and multiple spheres of dark magi at Sonic and swing his staff to create some dark waves towards the two hedgehogs. Spiral leap over to Swain ready to strike by using his ability with his wind dragon slayer magic.

"Wind Dragon Talon Kick!" Spiral shouted.

Spiral engulfs his foot with wind and sends Swain a fierce spinning roundhouse kick right to the jaw and sends him flying. Sonic power his magic and dashes over to the raven form Swain.

"Take this! Fire-Lightning Assault!" Sonic shouted.

Sonic launches in the air and start to attack Swain by sending him numerous attacks by hitting him three times with kicks, punches him six times and rapid kicks Swain several times and Sonic then delivers a strong fierce punch right to Swain's jaw and sends him crashing through the wall and out of the citadel.

Swain uses his raven wings and again uses his staff and shoots rapid orbs with his magic and hits the two hedgehogs with them and then Swain begin to fire a big orb from his mouth.

"Take this fools! Darkness Torment!" Swain shouted.

Swain shot his orb at the two hedgehogs and it created a powerful explosion which destroyed the hallway of the citadel.


With Kenny…

Kenny with along Katarina carrying Talon out of the citadel until they hear the explosion. They took a look at the citadel to see that there was smoke coming from the citadel, Kenny knew the battle was getting intense.

"Be careful Sonic and Spiral." Kenny whispered.


Back to the Fight…

Sonic and Spiral are laid on the ground. Swain appear and start to shoot beams from his hands after putting his staff away, Sonic senses it, does a starfish kip up to get up on his feet quickly, grabs Spiral and dodge away the beams. Spiral woke up and shakes his head and looks to Sonic.

"Thanks Sonic." Spiral thanked.

"No problem, now I believe that we got a fight to finish." Sonic smiled.

Spiral nod his head, agreeing with Sonic and gets back to the fight with Swain. The raven form Swain then creates several spheres with his dark magic and hurls them over to Sonic and Spiral. The two hedgehogs then evade from the spheres and Sonic creates an arrow formed with fire and lightning altogether and aims it at Swain.

"Fire-Lightning Missile Arrow!" Sonic shouted.

Sonic hurls his technique over at Swain and struck him with fire and lightning altogether. Spiral hits Swain with his Wind Dragon Talon Kick to add the damage to the tactician. Swain begin to activate his Wind-Fire Dragon Mode and get to his stance surprising Sonic.

"Whoa you can use Wind-Fire Dragon Mode?" Sonic asked.

"Yeah. I even gained Wind-Ice Dragon Mode when I fought Trundle back at the Hollowing Abyss. I even have Wind-Lightning Dragon Mode also." Spiral answered.

"That's a first."

"It sure is cousin."

Swain roared and shoots a spears of dark magic at Sonic and Spiral but the two hedgehogs dodge the spears made by Swain. Spiral start using his magic at Swain.

"Let's see if you can handle this! Wind-Fire Dragon Heated Wave!" Spiral shouted.

"Ravage Claw!" Swain shouted.

Swain swing his talon claws at Spiral slashing him in the chest creating pain in his chest and blast a dark purple orb at Spiral backing him away. Sonic launches in the air to hit Swain with his Fire-Lightning Flying Kick technique to Swain but Swain dodges Sonic from the attack, grabs him by his quills and swung him around and tosses him back down to the ground. Swain holds his hand up in the air and creates a dark purple orb to activate his ability to add on the damage to Sonic but however, Spiral appears quickly and activate his ability to strike and stop Swain preventing him to go any further with his powerful ability.

"This is going to be an intense fight Sonic." Spiral commented.

"You're telling me, Swain is much stronger than I thought and he sure isn't backing down now." Sonic agreed.

Moments after, Swain appears in front of the two hedgehogs but this time, he created a giant dark purple magic sphere from the palm of his hands ready to throw it to the two hedgehogs.

"This time, you all will DIE! Disaster Reign!" Swain shouted.

Swain hurls his giant technique over to the two hedgehogs and creates a powerful explosion which destroyed half of the citadel creating a loud noise.


With Kenny…

Kenny helped Katarina to heal Talon which it was working. He uses his First Aid Kit to help Talon to treat his wounds which they were not severely but helped him to break off the weakness that Swain's raven had bruised him. After a minute or so, Talon then feels much better and start to move.

"Thank you young friend." Talon thanked.

"No problem, it's the least I can do since you and Katarina helped us to claim the last stone of the Elements of Harmony." Kenny responded.

Seconds later, the trio hear loud explosions that were coming from the citadel bringing their attention. They look on, gazing over to the citadel and hear the people screaming in the city.

"Oh this is getting out of control." Kenny commented.

"Looks like they're still going at it and Swain is very powerful." Katarina stated.

"Indeed. Your friends are putting much of a wonderful fight young one." Talon stated.

"Yeah and this is just getting serious." Kenny said.

"*Grunt* How dare you… defeated me… like this… do you have… any idea… who are you… messing with…" Swain struggled.

"I surely do but you should already know." Sonic countered with a smile on his face.

Sonic revert back to normal and Spiral deactivate his Wind-Lightning Dragon Mode and look at the destruction of the citadel.

"Look at what we did." Sonic examined.

"You're telling me cousin, it was an intense battle we had." Spiral exclaimed.

"Yeah you said it, come on let's get out of here. I think we had enough fight for one day."

"That's easy for you to say, you've been through a lot today fighting your enemies who wanted to kill you and you sure can use a big break."

"Yeah now that you've mentioned it, I could use a good rest."

"Come on cousin, let's get out of here."

"Yeah."

The two hedgehogs make their way out of the citadel, before they could leave when all of sudden, Swain gets up on his feet and fires a green dagger with green flames onto it initiating his ability.

"These bad guys sure like to do things the hard way." Sonic commented.

"That's true Sonic." Spiral agreed.

"Now that Swain is gone, we can move on with our lives but we're still going to be with Noxus and we won't come after you." Katarina added.

"That's good to hear. Glad to see you're ok Talon." Sonic smiled.

"Thanks to your cat friend here." Talon pointed out towards Kenny.

"Aw shucks you're making me blush." Kenny joked.

"So what will you guys do?" Katarina asked.

"Get off of this island, we got what we came for so we're leaving." Sonic responded.

"I wish the best of luck of you three and thank you again." Talon wished shaking Sonic's hand.

"You're welcome, best of luck to you too."

Katarina walks up to Sonic, pulls him into a passionate kiss on the lips surprising Sonic at first but did not resist but instead returns the kiss as they kiss for two minutes and Katarina depart her lips away.

"Hope to see you again handsome, take care out there." Katarina flirted.

"You too Katarina." Sonic responded.

"We got the sixth and last stone Sonic. Here it is." Kenny handed.

"Cool." Sonic commented.

Sonic takes the stone in his hands and eventually feels the power of it earning a question from the exceed.

"And you have them all." Spiral finished.

"Finally. We got all six stones, now it's time we go back home to Magnolia to Fairy Tail and faced Darkness the Hedgehog and his henchman." Sonic exclaimed.

"Hey what about Zack?" Kenny asked.

"We'll worry about him right after I deal with Darkness. It's time we bring the fight to him."

"I agree, time to end this war between you two once and for all."

"And I'm going to help you anyway I can Sonic." Spiral said with a smile on his face.
