Quatre: Are you sure it was a good idea to let Duo baby-sit your Chao?

ChibiChaos: Yes Quatre, I'm sure it was, Duo's really good with little kids

Quatre: But.what if he does something to it

ChibiChaos: Like what?

Quatre: What if he hurts it by accident or something

ChibiChaos: Relax Quatre, I'm sure Yami-chan (the Chao) is happily learning how cause havoc and create

mass distraction.

Quatre: Why me?

Last Time

Amy frowned and turned to Tails, "Come on, we have to go and rescue Sonic."

Tails nodded, "Alright, let's go," he turned to Hikari, "you are going to help us right?"

Hikari nodded, "Sure thing, that jerk stole my crystal, I want it back." She and Amy jumped onto Tails' Tornado.

"To the high security prison then." Cheered Amy, Hikari and Tails sweatdropped but nodded as the Tornado started up.

Now

Hikari clung to the wing of the tornado with her life, Amy was happily sitting on the opposite wing swinging her legs as the Tornado flew over the water.

Tails sweatdropped at Hikari's position, "Er.sorry bout that, I really do need to make this a two seater don't I?"

Hikari turned to shout at him but couldn't because the wind kept carrying her voice away so settled for glaring at him with all her might. Tails gave her a small smile and pointed down, Hikari looked and saw that the ground was getting closer, she sighed in relief.

Tails set the Tornado onto the ground and glanced around,

"The base entrance should be somewhere close."

"SONIC!! I'M COMING!!" Amy jumped off the Tornado and ran in the direction that Tails had been pointing in.

"Amy, no, it's too dangerous," Tails sighed and started after Amy,

"Hang on, I'm not going anywhere with this thing." Shouted Hikari as she quickly jumped off the Tornado

Tails paused, "I have to go after Amy, she might get hurt."

"Then go," Hikari smiled, "I'll be fine, besides, it's probably better this way, I'll have the advantage of surprise."

Tails nodded and tossed a walkie-talkie to her, "Use this if you get into trouble."

Hikari caught the WT and gave Tails the 'V' sign, "See ya." She dashed into the dense jungle.

Time Skip

Hikari groaned as she tripped over another root, "Stupid jungles, why do they have to be so dark?" she paused when she heard running sounds, 'That might be that black hedgehog!' Hikari leaped over the bushes and landed on the hedgehog that had been passing by, "Give me back my crystal you jerk!"

Sonic had been happily, ok so he hadn't been happy about it but anyway. Sonic had been walking through the jungle in his quest to escape the GUN soldiers when all of a sudden he found himself flat on his back face to face with a really ticked off white hedgehog demanding her crystal back. So him being Sonic he did what seemed to be the only logical thing to him,

"Huh?"

Hikari blinked at the hedgehog who she had pinned to the ground, "Hey wait, you're not that black hedgehog."

Sonic pricked his ears at this, "You've seen him? Where did he go?"

Hikari shrugged and jumped off him (that didn't sound right) "No idea, last time I saw him, he was walking into the forest with batgirl, so who are you anyway?"

Sonic picked himself off the ground, "Sonic the hedgehog at your service." Sonic bowed

Hikari smiled, "Well I'm Hikari the hedgehog, and I guess you're the guy who those other two were trying to save."

"Tails and Amy? Yeah, they busted me out but I still have to get off this stupid island."

At that moment, the two, who had been walking at this stage, turned into a clearing, and who should be there, but Shadow.

"Hey, it's that black hedgehog again." shouted Sonic

"That blue hedgehog, of all places." Shadow growled, and noticed Hikari, "and he brought his little friend along, how's your head?"

"Fine, no thanks to you, give me back my crystal." Ordered Hikari

"You can't tell me what to do." Sneered Shadow, tossing the red crystal in his palm, "if you want it so much, why don't you and that faker come and get it."

"I'll make you eat those words." Shouted Sonic as he charged at Shadow

"Hey, I want a piece of him too." Added Hikari as she ran alongside him.

' I don't have time for this,' thought Shadow, 'I have to get to Rouge before she blabs out everything.'

At that moment, Hikari felt a blast of negative energy and stopped, "Wha- what was that?"

Sonic paused, "Hey Hikari, what are you doing?"

Shadow too stopped, "What's wrong, can't take the heat?"

Hikari ignored them and searched for Michiru and Haruka, after a couple of minutes searching, her eyes snapped open, "Oh no."

Sonic blinked, "Oh no what?"

Hikari still ignored him, 'How could I have let this go one for long, why didn't I stop him sooner? Haruka, I wish, I wish I could help you.'

The red crystal in Shadow's hand started glowing,

"What?" Shadow stared at it in shock as the crystal leaped from his hand and hovered in front of Hikari

Hikari turned as the crystal stopped in front of her, "What on ear." she fainted before she could finish the sentence.

Sonic caught her, the crystal was still hovering over her body, "What, what's it doing?"

Inside Hikari's mind

Hikari surveyed her surroundings, "This, this is where I first met Uranus and Neptune."

"That's right."

Hikari looked up to see a woman glowing red standing in front of her, "Who are you?"

"I am part of the silver crystal (someone tell me the Japanese name for it please) and I am here to grant your wish."

"Are you strong enough?"

"The energy I gain from you should be enough when added to my own."

"Oh." Hikari looked down then back up at the red woman, "Bring Haruka to me."

"Are you sure, it will mean that Mamoru can cross the barrier too as long as I hold it open."

Hikari nodded, "I can't let him keep doing this, I won't let him hurt anymore of my friends."

"Then it shall be."

Back to the jungle with Shadow and Sonic

The red crystal started glowing brighter until it covered Hikari's entire body, a scream and a loud thump were heard nearby.

Sonic and Shadow's heads snapped towards the sound,

"What was that?"

"I don't know." Shadow looked over at Hikari, who Sonic had put down while they fought, 'what is she hiding?'

At that moment, a crackling sound emitted from Shadow's walkie-talkie, Eggman's voice came out, "Shadow, what on earth are you doing, the island is about to blow up."

Sonic gaped, "BLOW UP?!"

Shadow paused a moment, wondering if he should take Hikari but decided against it, 'The emeralds are what's important, not some hedgehog.' He quickly scooped up the red emerald from where it had fallen next to Hikari and darted into the jungle.

"Hey!" Sonic turned around but Shadow was gone, "great, now what am I supposed to do?"

Hikari groaned as the emerald's effect wore off, "What happened, did it work?"

"Damn right it worked,"

Sonic and Hikari turned around to see a light brown fox with dark blue eyes wearing a gray scarf and overalls and dark grey runners with white gloves that had dark grey edging standing in the clearing.

"Har-Haruka?" Hikari gaped at the fox.
