"Knuckles told Sonic, Tails and Fury that the Shadow Worm is the strongest
out of the Shadow Scorpion and The Shadow Worm. But what Knuckles did not
know was that their battle for the shadow scorpion's half of the orb was
not easy. But perhaps, The Shadow Worm will pose an even greater threat"
Part #23 The Shadow Worm
Sonic, Tails and Fury were hiking around the forest trying to find the fiend witch held the second half of the orb inside it's womb. Sonic kept staring at the glittering jewel like orb.
"What is it with you and that orb?" asked Tails.
"That man used it to become stronger, and "Puppet Master" if that is who it was wanted it." Stated Sonic "I'm beginning to think these are a lot more then keys to the gateway and a source of power for the shadow creatures"
"Maybe, maybe not" added Fury "But we need to keep these away from people like them. "
"Yeah I suppose" finished Sonic.
"But I think your right" said Fury "There are more to these then Knuckles is telling us."
Sonic took another glimpse at it. "I wonder if we could harness it's vim?" he wondered.
"We probably could. But we'd have to know how" explained Fury.
"Maybe Knuckles knows how" figured Tails.
Fury suddenly stopped in his tracks, Sonic and Tails stopped to see why. "Listen, I bet even if he knows how he wouldn't tell us. I tested his patience with me. He was mad but to scared to hit me or hurt me at all. The only thing he said was for me to get out of his face. I know for a fact he is leaving things out from the unknown prophecy and my prophecy. "
Sonic stopped to think for second and Tails did the same. "I bet he's hiding something!" said Sonic furiously as he slammed his fist onto his other hand.
"Exactly" explained Fury, "But we don't have proof. I think we should tell him about Puppet Master though, see if he knows anything about it. But we should ask him about the power of these orbs. Or about the prophecy of the fore-told hero or the unknown prophecy."
Tails and Fury nodded in agreement. "But I think we should hurry up and slay the worm before that thing sends another fluky to slay it".
Fury nodded "Your right!"
"Let's go then!" yelled Sonic excitedly. After Sonic said that the trio set off at top speed. Sonic running just fast enough to keep with them. And now going far off due to his ability to run several thousand miles per minute.
After approximately twenty minutes, they stopped without much luck. "Tails!" started Sonic. "Fly up and see if you can find anything." He asked
Tails nodded and swirled his tails until he began to elevate of the ground. He then soared up into the clouds and looked down at the forest. He didn't see anything of interest, just the tips of the deformed trees of the forest of sorrow and despair.
"Damn." cursed Tails in mid air, before he began to lower himself back to the ground. "No luck" he moaned to Sonic and Fury.
"S'okay Tails!" said Sonic trying to cheer him up, and of course he did. But they were getting tired of looking for the creature.
"We have to hurry up and find the creature!" said Fury firmly.
"Tell me something I don." started Sonic but was quickly interrupted by Tails.
"QUIET!" he hushed as he listened carefully with his fox ears. "It's coming!" he whispered.
Sonic and Fury stopped, staid silent, As Tails did. Within several moments time Fury and Sonic could here it as well. They could here its body slam across the ground.
Fury, Tails, and Sonic turned to the direction, facing the direction of the sound. And within minutes they could see a dark figure locomotive at top speed towards them.
"We better move or were going to get trampled!" warned Sonic as the three dodged out of the way. And within several seconds it sped past them leaving a large curved hollow in the ground. Before Tails' eyes and only his, he saw twisted forms as he had seen before in the forest a pear and pat dirt into the dent. Once it reached the top the touched it with the tips of there long pointed fingers, and grass spurted from the soil. But for Fury and Sonic this wasn't happening. They could not see this happen. Fury and Sonic had scorned Tails before because of his visions of spirits, so he decided not to tell them.
"That thing was fast!" observed Sonic as he jumped into the dent in the ground and looked at it go on for miles.
Fury joined him. "It's to fast" he told him. "You're the only one you can run that fast!" . Tails flew down into the crease as well.
Sonic sighed. "Fine" he surrendered as he grabbed there wrist and set off at top speed, cutting through the air like a hot knife through butter.
After about five minutes, Sonic stopped. He turned into a bunch of trees in between the path. They watched the worm through a clearance in the trees. It was in front of a large pond. The wondered was fogged but shimmered in what little sunshine peeked through the cracks between tree to tree.
The wormed crawled over all the dirt it had pushed up from it's speeded locomoted rage and dipped it's face into the pond. It slurped the water.
"It seems so peaceful!" said Sonic. "And we have to kill it"
They watched as it stoke its head in the water and gulped the shimmering water.
It removed its head from the water and shook the water off. Suddenly it became darker then before and it's six light green eyes seemed to stand out incredibly. Spirits advanced along to finish up the dent. When suddenly the wormed noticed them and beated them back with it's tail.
"It's going berserk!" shouted Sonic, but he could not see it beat of the help less spirits, sure they were bitter or evil when they died but they probably regretted that by know.
Tails watched in awe as the helpless spirits tried to clean up after the mess the Shadow Worm, the mess it made just for a drink of water. And it beated them back, all they were doing was trying to keep there home in nice shape.
That did it for Tails, he clenched his fist and bit his lip. "I'm ready!" he told them.
Fury grabbed his sword and held it in his battle stance. "Let's just get this over with!' he suggested as he stared coldly at the worm.
Sonic smirked and held the handles of his falchions. "Let's do this!"
"The Shadow Worm showed no respect for the spirits cleaning up after the mess it made. This did it for Tails and he became determined to destroy it. But for Fury and Sonic it was insane and that was all. Only tails could see the heartless mind within it."
