Blaze's p.o.v.
We didn't know what to do as three guardians were knocking out and gathering a bunch of immortals. I swore that my body was frozen in place and felt as if I was watching all of this from a horror film.
"Hey!" I managed to snap back into reality as Silver spoke up and got there attention. "What do you think your doing?!" the blue guardian chuckled as both the purple and green one went back to collecting the unconscious gods and demons.
"Ho ho wouldn't you like to know~" he sung and I got angry
"You better watch your mouth." I warned him
"Heh... or what?"
"Or I'll roast you to bits and pieces!" I spat at him and the purple guardian hummed
"Well well well, looks like we have a rebellious one on our hands." the green guardian huffed then looked at me with disgust.
"She looks like she should belong in a pound." I growled then felt a hand on my shoulder and saw Silver give me a reassuring smile then turned his attention back to the three guardians with fire in his eyes.
"Oh yeah? Well you shouldn't come where your not wanted or else you'll get a major tail kick." he added a sly grin to his statement and I giggled. Silver always knows what to say to get me to laugh. The guardians looked at each other before letting the purple one step up.
"Its in our orders to collect suitable subjects for Master and I shall be your opponent to show you just how important this order is." he waved his cane at us and I growled at him but before I could make a move, Silver held my arm.
"I don't think we should engage-" he was cut off as the guardian had whacked us away and I managed to get on my feet before he swung at me and I planted a kick into his side sending him skidding a few feet back.
"If you want an opponent, then I'll be the challenger!" I got in a fighting stance and he laughed at me. "What's so funny?"
"You foolish feline! Look behind you!" I took a glance behind me to see the other two guardians holding Silver as he tried to struggle in there arms. I looked back at the purple guardian before me as he leaned on his cane while smirking at me.
"This has you in a tight spot doesn't it?" I had to keep myself at trying to do anything because I know how much trouble I might cause myself and I wasn't willing to get Silver hurt because of my mistake. He looked up at the sky and mumbled something before smirking and looking at me. "Alright you little feline, I'll give you a deal. You and your hedgehog friend can come with us and we will let all the other immortals go or you can try to fight me but the lives of those gods and demons as well as your friend will hang in the balance of your fight against me." I lowered my stance but kept a keen eye for if this little deal of his was fake or not. I don't trust the guardians but at this moment, they have the advantage and are willing to cheat for anything to get what they want. I breathed out a sigh and looked back at Silver then at him. "Well?"
"You will leave all the other immortals that you stole alone?"
"Haha, of course! But that means that you will have to come without a fight." I put my hands down to my sides and nodded.
"All right. I'll come." he nodded to the other guardians and the blue one let the immortals go and even though they were unconscious, I still felt like I might have done the wrong thing.
Sawyer's p.o.v.
"Are you saying that we are just going to charge in there without a care in the world and only hell knows what we are getting ourselves into!?" Scourge yelled at me I shushed him
"Would you shut up!?" he glared at me before huffing and turning his head away from me.
"I thought you might've wanted to get the five back or see what Snake was doing but here we are, following your crazy plan to charge into the most deadliest place in all of the universe and attack Blue with our heads cut off!" he growled and I sighed. At times, Scourge can be the most annoying and dumbest creature to ever exist but he's an excellent fighter and can be rational when it comes down to dangerous situations. But also irrational to the point of getting himself almost killed or put in a life threatening spot. Yeah... that's Scourge. When you look in a dictionary, Scourge will be the very definition of weirdo. Not that I'm ever saying that to his face but boy would I ever like to.
"I said I was going to end a nightmare and that's exactly what I'm going to do." he deadpanned a look and opened his mouth but then closed it. "Is there something you were going to say?" he shook his head then walked away.
"No... no I'm not saying anything... thinking... that's a different story..." I didn't hear what he said after that but I sighed. Maybe the dictionary has more than one definition for the word 'Scourge' cause I don't know what to put him under now. We crept along the halls of the castle Exetior had made and had to hide a couple of times when guards passed. We heard some muffled talking and decided to see who was talking.
"Its not like those two to not put up a fight..." one voice said
"Maybe they have a plan to try and stab you in the back when you least expect it." another replied and we glanced at each other before looking around the corner to see a grey wolf ghost and a dark blue hedgehog.
"Hmm... all right... I'll keep an extra close watch on them before their time is up." the ghost nodded then disappeared and we were left in awe of who those two actually are. Exetior and Frank... I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard him laugh and he turned to us but wasn't actually looking at us, just the sky. "Everyone will get what they deserve... don't you agree?" he put on that sickening smile as he lowered his head and stared straight at me. "And you thought you wouldn't go unnoticed. A fool will only go as far as to challenge me personally and think that they have a sliver of a chance to beat me." I frowned then stood up tall as I stepped into the doorway.
"Believe it or not but I don't just think I can beat you, I KNOW I can beat you!" I got in a fighting stance and he laughed.
"Hahahahaha You really think you can beat me all on your lonesome self?" I looked at him confused until I looked around and saw that Scourge was nowhere to be seen. "Missing something hmm?"
"No... " 'Just a stupid demon that thinks for himself and I'll kill him for it.' I mumbled then his orbs glowed before turning back to normal.
"Hmm hmm hmm I'll let you go this one time but you better be careful in my castle, Sawyer." I raised an eye ridge and lowered my stance
"Why?" he chuckled then frowned
"Do you like minced meat?"
"Would you stop dodging my question and answer it!?" I yelled and he gave an evil smirk
"You better not or else you'll be the meat that will be minced." he gave an insane giggle and that ear to ear grin. "Everyone in this very castle is searching for you and won't hesitate to kill on sight." I widened my eyes then took off for the exit as his distorted laugh as I ran. "YoU wOn'T sTaNd A cHaNcE sAwYeR! JuSt GiVe In To DeAtH aNd It WiLl Be PaInLeSsSsSsSsSs!" I twisted and turned each corner but had to either dodge some guards or take a different route to get away. I turned one corner but stopped clean in my tracks as a light blue energy blast got in my way and blocked the one exit in front of me. I turned around to see that a light blue hedgehog with glowing blue eyes in my path. Right beside him was Scourge but he wasn't green anymore.
"Looks like I found the little intruder. You'll be nice to have as a fighter." I got in a fighting stance but he wasn't the one who did as well, Scourge was. "Don't worry, all you have to do is give in and this will be the most fun you've ever had." he gave a friendly smile.
"I'm not going down without a fight!" I yelled and he frowned then floated in the air.
"Very well. I guess I have to take you by force!" his eyes flashed and Scourge charged at me as I did the same.
Negagen's p.o.v.
I just don't get it. Why doesn't he give up? I watched them fight for a while now and I seriously don't know why he would go through such lengths just to survive. I mean, sensei has always said that they should all just die so they can feel what he felt when they banished him and I totally agree! I mean, if I was the one that was betrayed and banished, I would certainly do whatever it takes to get back at those responsible. After pulling off another punch, I called the green hedgehog back and the brown hedgehog growled before looking at me.
"Why are you fighting? You know you can't escape death so why don't you just give up and give in?" he scoffed and folded his arms as he glared at me
"Surviving and living are to different things that are similar in many ways and I'm doing both." I raised an eye ridge as he continued to look at me
"But sensei is always right."
"Your so called sensei is delusional, psychotic and insane. He only thinks for himself and when this is all over, you'll see just how much he's using you just to control everyone." I gasped and glared at him
"How dare you say such things about sensei! I outta just kill you just for saying that!" he smirked and got in a fighting stance
"Then try and get me you little child." I growled and got the green hedgehog to attack on the ground as I attacked in the air.
Third Person
Sawyer pulled off a quick roundhouse kick into Scourge's stomach but because Negagen is controlling him, he didn't feel any pain. Negagen threw multiple blasts at the brown hedgehog but got slugged in the jaw by said hedgehog. Scourge had kept up behind Sawyer as he pinned the god down making him an easy target for another blast. Negagen has flown higher into the air when Sawyer had managed to, but failed, to kick him but has now pinned the green hedgehog down. Getting tired of all the back and forth, the light blue hedgehog landed on the ground and pinned Sawyer to the wall.
"Let me go!" Sawyer yelled as he tried with all his might to get his attackers hands off him. Negagen only smirked and called Scourge to hold the brown hedgehog in his place while he would work his magic. After making sure that the brown hedgehog wasn't going anywhere, Negagen concentrated on reaching out to the trapped hedgehog's soul to control it but had no luck as he found out how powerful the brown hedgehog's soul actually was. He growled and looked at Sawyer with a lot of menace.
"Give up!"
"Never!" Sawyer growled at the light blue hedgehog and even though he was trapped, he still continued to struggle despite also knowing that he wouldn't be able to escape that easily. Negagen growled and huffed. If he wasn't able to reach out to the brown hedgehog, he would have to do it when Sawyer's fighting spirit was lowered. Letting him go, Sawyer tried to get away but was stopped by a blow to the head from Scourge.
"Hmm hmm hmm and you said that you'll never give up. Well, never say never." the brown hedgehog got up slowly but as soon as he was on his knees, Scourge punched him again, knocking him out. Negagen ordered Scourge to pick up the body and was about to order the green hedgehog to take their captive to Sonic . exe when said demon stopped them.
"Wait Negagen."
"Sensei?"
"Take him and Scourge to the throne room but lock them in chains." the light blue hedgehog looked confused from his sensei's words but then shrugged and took the two away. 'Sensei knows best.' he thought and Sonic . exe chuckled as he heard those words.
"Soon... soon I will win and everyone, everywhere will bow down to me!" the demonic hedgehog laughed unaware 6 pairs of red dots that were forced upon their owners, watching the once proud hero turned villain with fear.
