Seelkadoom's p.o.v.
"Let me get this straight, you brought out Sonic's dark form in hopes of controlling him, realized his powers were darkness and he was more powerful then you, he killed a cat and you found about his motives, betrayed you and now were here?" they all nodded and I sighed "Talk about crazy."
"Yeah well, we didn't know that this would happen." Nazo said and I leaned against the wall
"So then why are you going to go to this 'limbo' and get this other being named Light?"
"Dark specifically said that the only two that could stop him are Sonic and Light." Exe said and waved his hand to the screen "And Sonic is out of the question."
"But you wanted this to happen before right?"
"Not like this." Fleetway shook his head and I looked at him confused
"Dark was meant to serve us not the other way around." Mephiles put his hands on his hips and I looked at the screen again seeing the black hedgehog causing the whole city to go up in flames.
"So what are going to do after you get Light?"
"Hopefully we can fix the mistake that we made." I looked at Nazo and he shook his head "But we can't do that without going to limbo first." I hummed and lowered my head.
"If we knew were this limbo was then we could get there." I mumbled then shot my head up and smirked "I think I know someone who could help." they looked me confused and I chuckled. "Follow me." We soon arrived at the doctors base and I chuckled as I punched the door down.
"Was that necessary?" Nazo asked and I smirked
"Only if you want Robotnik to know that I need something from him." I saw robots come down the hallways and I powered an orb and shot it at them, disintegrating them. I walked through the hall until I came to his main computer room where he turned to face me.
"Haven't you ever heard of knocking?"
"Haven't you head that I don't care?"
"Is that anyway to speak to the man who created you?" I rushed up to him and chuckled as I held his collar
"I don't give a shit about you and you know it Robotnik." he gulped and I let him go and turned to Nazo who stared at me wide-eyed "Just like old times." I turned back to the doctor and chuckled.
"Why are you here anyway Seelkadoom?" he asked while rubbing his neck. I looked over at Nazo as he came up to us
"We need to know if you can get us to limbo." Robotnik looked at us confused then sat up straighter in his chair
"Why would you want to go there?"
"If we can get there then we can get Light and stop Dark once and for all." he looked at us skeptical then turned to his screen.
"I don't think I can help you here." I growled then forcefully turned his chair to face me and floated to his eye level.
"Look you fat man, I know you have the smarts to create a machine like that cause I seen you do it before. Now why don't you get your traveling machine, reprogram it and help us or so help me I will toss you into shark invested waters where you'll feel your body get ripped to shreds." he gulped and had sweat going down his face
"W-Well lets just see if my machine is operational then I guess I could help." I chuckled and let him go turning back to everyone else and Nazo scratched his head.
"I'll ask this again, was that really necessary?"
"I'm not going to answer that." I said once I touched the ground again and Robotnik went into a different room. "I guess I did my part." I started to walk away until Scourge grabbed my arm
"Where are going?" I pulled my arm away and chuckled as I saw Robotnik come back with the machine
"I've done all I can here so I'm leaving. Later." I turned away and waved a hand as I left.
Scourge's p.o.v.
"...Ungrateful, selfish, failed experiment. Why did I create you anyway? Your just a thorn to my rear-end." we all turned around after hearing him mutter some words and Nazo cleared his throat getting his attention. "Hehm... I forgot you were standing there."
"Just hurry up with that machine so we can get this over with." he nodded and started to tinker it. While he was at it we sat down on the floor.
"What do you think Light looks like?" I decided to ask out of the blue
"The opposite of Dark I'm guessing." Fleetway replied and I nodded
"Do you think that he would listen to us if we go get him?" Mephiles questioned and Nazo shrugged
"I guess we have to see once we get there." Exe commented and we all nodded. After a couple of hours Eggman got his machine operational and we went through arriving in a place that was yellow everywhere we looked.
"This is limbo?" I asked
"I guess but I'm not sure were we should go to see Light." Nazo said.
"Hey, what about that white glow over there." Fleetway pointed over to an object that had a white glow coming off it and we headed in that direction. Once we got there, we saw a pure white hedgehog with it's quills stuck up, floating in the air with black chains covering it's body.
"Light... how do you suppose we get to him?" I questioned and looked around to see white chains floating around a little ways away. As I went to investigate, I started to feel energy come off of the chains. I placed my hand on them but recoiled back from pain when I felt positive energy flow through them.
"Hmm... hey guys!" I ran back over to them and looked up at the chained hedgehog "I think we can touch the chains." I looked at there confused faces and chuckled as I went to touch the chains but didn't feel anything. "Just as I suspected, these chains have negative energy. Those chains over there had positive energy *Nods toward chains* I'm guessing that is where Dark was held." I looked at Nazo and he nodded in understanding. We started to take the chains off but stopped as we heard a groan.
"Did you hear that?" Exe asked and we nodded, looking everywhere
"Uh... guys?" we looked at Fleetway and he pointed up at Light. We followed where he was pointed to see said hedgehog move his head and make the chains that were still on him rattle. We stepped back and watched as he opened his eyes and blinked at us. His eyes were pupil less and pure black.
"Who are you?" he asked with a voice like silk and we looked at each other "I asked you a question."
"I just want to get this straight, your name is Light, correct?"
"Answer my question and I'll answer yours."
"Alright well, my name is Nazo and these are my friends, Scourge, Fleetway, Mephiles and Exe." Nazo said while waving at each of us
"It's a pleasure to meet you and yes, my name is Light." he looked around then back down at us. "I can see that Dark has already escaped."
"Yeah and I guess you can make us the guilty ones." Exe said and he hummed
"Then you must get me out of here so I can put a end to his mischief." we looked at each other confused at what he just said. For some reason he seemed nice... too nice. We shrugged and continued to take off all the chains. He floated down to us and bowed.
"Thank you for releasing me. *Stands back up* Which direction is the transport machine?"
"How do you know that?" Mephiles asked and he chuckled
"Negative beings such as yourselves don't belong here so you had to come by some other means to come get me. Anyway we can't dillydally, Dark probably has made a lot of destruction and needs to be stopped." he started to walk away
"Is it just me or does Light seem to be hiding something?" I asked and they nodded
"That's because he is." a voice called out and we looked everywhere to see where it came from "If you really want to know what those two are hiding then you should free me and not let him escape." we turned to the direction of the voice and saw Sonic, on his knees with chains covering him.
"Sonic? How did you get here?" Nazo asked and he chuckled
"NO!" he jumped back as white fire erupted in front of us and Light ran in front of Sonic. "You can't let the Keeper free, you just can't!" Sonic chuckled
"Put the fire out Light. You know your better then that." said hedgehog looked at Sonic then sighed
"But..."
"Light." Sonic's eyes narrowed as his voice changed for a split second making the white hedgehog shudder
"Alright." he waved his hand and the fire disappeared. He glared at us then walked away
"Not the friendliest welcome I've seen." Nazo said and Sonic chuckled "But other then that how did you get in here? Why did Light call you 'Keeper'? Why did you say that he can't be let free? Why did Light say you couldn't be free? What is he hiding?..."
"Whoa, whoa, one question at a time why don't ya?" Sonic chuckled then sighed "Freedom first, question asking second." we looked at each other then got the chains off him "Thanks... *Rubs wrists* what did you want to ask first?"
"How are you here?" he looks around then chuckled
"I always get sent here when one of them *nods towards Light* gets free" I looked at Light who was pacing around and then looked back at Nazo who shrugged "Light just wants to be helpful but he knows that once he gets in a fight with Dark, then the fight will never end."
"Never end?" Fleetway asked
"There two sides of the same coin. You can't have one without the other or else there will be imbalance and eventually the world will tear itself apart from the imbalance."
"Alright but why did he call you 'Keeper'?" Exe questioned
"Balance keeper. I protect the harmony that flows through all living things. I'm the one that makes sure that the balance isn't tipped for example, trouble makers like yourselves." Sonic chuckled then walked over to where Light was pacing. "Where did they enter from?"
"Transporter *Points at it* that way."
"You can be the distraction this time." he looks at him
"You mean that?" he nodded and Light smiled "Thanks."
"Now that is done with, we should get out of here and I have balance to correct."
