Dll's p.o.v.

I opened my eyes to find the ground in my line of sight. I looked up and found that I was outside. I didn't know how I ended up here but without thinking, I got to my feet and looked around. There was houses lined up like dominoes and every few steps, a tree would be in someone's yard. I looked behind me to see the same thing, for as far as the eye could see.

"Hello?" I asked but my result was my voice bouncing off the walls. 'This doesn't look like any place I've ever been too... and it certainly doesn't feel like an illusion...'

I spot something move from the corner of my eye and when I look at it, it was gone. After a little hesitation, I start to walk in the direction I saw the figure. I heard a squishing sound and looked down to see I was standing in, what looked like, a brain. I jumped up in surprise and backed away from the organ. I heard a whistling sound and turned my head to see more broken organs laying everywhere on the ground. I shuddered as I felt a chill running down my back and looked behind me to see a box, a few feet back. I went up to the object and the closer I got, the more I could hear a song being played. It sounded like a little girls slow voice but the more it played, the more I realized it was 'Ring Around The Rosey'. I stopped in my tracks and the music stopped too. 'This better not be a jumpscare...'

I took a shaky step forward and a note played. After a quick glance around, I made my way over to the box. Once I was hovering just above it, the music stopped... but nothing happened. 'Weird... wasn't there supposed to be a Jack in the-' My thoughts were cut short as I jumped back in time before a figure popped out and I screamed and a hand covered my mouth to stop my attempts. I thrashed in whoevers hold I was in but stopped and looked down to see my own hand on my mouth. After a minute or two of trying to calm my dying heart, I looked up and swore that my eyes would pop out of my head. The 'figure' was Exe only not at the same time.

His eyes were gourged out and bleeding black blood. His head was in a demented V shape with the end of the tip between what used to be his eyes. He made the same sickening grin that would break anyone's skull but his teeth were shattered and barely any was left with black blood dripping down the corners of his mouth. Both hands were stuck up in an attack pose with his claws missing and bleeding black blood. His stomach was cut wide open with all his innards dripping out. Both his legs were bent in demented shapes and bones poked through. Half of his body was burnt to a crisp and the other half was perfectly fine. I looked down at the box that held him in and could see a spring connecting to his back. When I went behind him, all of his quills were ripped out and his entire back had all the flesh ripped off. I could see his skeleton and blood rushed down it like it was a river. On the back of one of his arms, there was scar's of pentagrams and the other had bones sticking out it.

As I made my way to the front, I put a hand over my mouth as I felt my stomach do flips and stopped any attempt to empty it. I turned away and forced everything to stay down as I calmed my burned nerves. I've seen a lot of nasty things before, none of which should ever be spoken of or about but this... this is a whole new level of horror. I've always experienced crazy things when me and X were growing up and have gotten used to it but... for someone or something to go this far... I don't even know what to think anymore.

I heard a splat come from behind me and turned to see Exe face down on the ground. Without thinking, I touched his body with my foot and jumped when his hand grabbed on. I pulled with all my might but to no avail. I took my other foot and bashed it into the V shape causing blood to fly everywhere but I managed to get some distance between us. I looked around the place I was in and saw how there wasn't anyone but me and... I'm guessing him.

I heard a whisper call my name and without thinking, I turned my head in that direction but didn't see anything. I felt chills go down my spine and looked back to freeze in fear. One of Exe's arms started to move slowly and plant itself on the ground, followed by the other. I cringed at the sound of bones snapping as his legs moved and made him go on all fours. My body went on autopilot as I saw him get farther away. I didn't dare look away as I heard squishing sounds below me.

He stayed in his position for quite some time until his head started to move up. When he looked in my direction, he had a frown plastered on his face. I stopped moving and our eyes met. I heard a distorted laugh and something that sounded like 'help' but they didn't come from him. His head turned slightly to the left and I saw something move from the corner of my eye. When I looked fully at it, I dodged before a black blur came at me.

I heard another distorted laugh and froze as the blur hovered over Exe and to my surprise, the thing was him. His body was full on black and the only thing that had colour was his red dot eyes. I looked at the broken Exe as I heard another whisper and saw him say 'help'. The black Exe landed on the one underneath him causing him to land flat on the ground.

"Be quiet you!" he looked at me then another distorted laugh came from him "So Dll, you finally had enough eh?" I glanced around until his laugh brought my attention back to him. "Yes you."

"Why do you mean?" the broken Exe's head managed to look up at me and for some reason had sorrow written all over.

"R-Run." the black hedgehog slammed his foot into his back again causing me to cringe at the sound of bones breaking.

"Don't listen to this fool, he had his chance but you... you can join me and we can rule this pathetic world together."

"R-Run Dll... s-save y-your s-self." the black hedgehog jumped on the others head causing it to split apart and I ran as I heard another distorted laugh. I ran and ran and ran. I didn't look back and heard lots of sounds, saw figures at the corners of my eyes, but didn't dare stop. That is, until I got slammed into the ground by a black blur. As I was sitting up, I hissed in pain and looked down to see blood pouring out of a slash across my stomach. I put a hand on my wound as I managed to stand on my feet.

"If I can feel pain then this certainly isn't a dream." I gave a dry chuckle as I whispered to myself a looked for any sign that I could use to help me.

"What's the matter Dollter? You don't look so good." I turned to the voice to see Sawyer standing beside Scourge and they both had smug smiles on there face.

"Yeah Snake, you better come with us." I was about to walk over to them but something told me that was a bad idea. I slowly started to back away but they followed.

"Come on Dollter. We won't bite, you know us better than that." I shook my head as my voice had already abandoned me and they chuckled.

"Oh Snake... you are always so funny." his voice got deeper for a second then back to normal. 'There is something seriously wrong here...' As I continued to walk backward, I saw shadows start to move and form together, creating other people that I've met before.

"Hey Dll, you shouldn't be scared."

"That's right... we're your friends." Silver and Blaze walked up to the other two hedgehogs and joined them. I could only keep backing away as the pain in my stomach got worse. I felt as if I was in danger if I went up to them and didn't want to experience that. More Shadows moved and I heard laughter. Not the distorted laugh Exe would use but mocking laughter. I looked left and right to see gods and demons laughing at me. I could hear voices saying things like 'freak', 'monster' and 'circus act'.

"Why don't you give in D?" I turned around to see Tails, Cream, Knuckles, Shadow and Rouge all standing in a line. I cringed as the pain intensified and felt like my knees would collapse.

"Yeah D... we can always be together if you join us."

"We can always be happy."

"And we wouldn't have to worry about anything." I looked between the two groups and couldn't dodge the black blur, ramming me into a building. I managed to get on all fours and looked up to get kicked in the side of my face.

"Haha... your called 'the god of death'? Pathetic! You can't even beat your own brother at your own game!" I looked up but my vision was blurry and all I could see was a black figure surrounded by other colourful blurs. I felt a pull on my quills and my vision cleared enough to see two red dot eyes staring right into my soul. "I'm always watching Dll... you will be mine." the last thing I saw was a fist heading straight for my fist but I couldn't feel a thing. Black never looked so good.

I tested my arm and could move it with much difficulty. I put it over my eyes and groaned as a white light shined through my blue fur. My other hand instinctively went to my stomach but was met with my soft fur instead. I groaned as I rolled on my side and moved my arm to see that I was in my room. Nothing was out of place and the only thing I could hear was multiple voices coming from downstairs. Wait... voices? Aren't I always up first? I looked out my window to see that it was open all the way. i started to move up out of my bed but hissed as my muscles were stiff and i didn't feel like moving but pushed through the pain.

I stretched my back until I heard a satisfying pop then moved over to the window and looked outside to see that the sun was high in the sky. An unsettling feeling came over me and couldn't help but feel as if something was terribly wrong. After one last glance around, I closed my window and made my way into the hall. I looked over at Exe's old room but the door was still closed. I heard a whisper come from behind me and looked but didn't see anything.

"You will be mine." I turned to the voice that whispered to me but didn't see anything. 'Alright... now I'm going crazy' I made my way through hall and came downstairs to see Scourge, Sawyer, dad and Exe's dad but the five up and they looked worried? 'What could they be worried about?'

"Dollter! Your awake!" Sawyer called out and everyone looked over at me with a fake smile. I frowned and glared at them.

"Alright, what happened?" I placed my hands on my hips and they looked at each other.

"What makes you say that something happened?" Scourge asked and I growled at them

"I can see the worry in your eyes, the fake smile, everything! So, why don't you tell me what's wrong or else I'll get the answers myself." they looked at eachother then back at me. Dad sighed then came up to me and put an arm around my shoulders.

"It would be best if you sit down while we tell you what happened." I looked at each of their faces and wondered what they were going to tell me.

Question: In Scourge's perspective, who is Snake?
