Scene 4: The First Battle!!! Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles vs. Silvix and Veran

"We'll destroy you before Veran is born!" Sonic says.

"Sonic, you are confident for such a weak hedgehog," Silvix replies.

"You are calling me weak? You had to take over someone's body in order to start your journey!" Sonic retorts.

"You needed Shadow in order to defeat Finalhazard. Sonic and friends, prepare to be beaten by a weaken version of myself!" Silvix snaps back.

"Bring it on!" Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles yell.
The battle begins between them.

"Tails go high. Knuckles go low. I got the middle," Sonic commands. They begin to execute their first attacks.

"Chaos Spear!" Silvix says. Shadow's move appears and hits Tails.

"Ow!" Tails yells. Knuckles begins to emerge from the ground while Sonic does a homing attack. Silvix moves and avoids both attacks.

"Whoa. He's fast!" Sonic says. "How did he get such speed?"

"I told you guys, you are not on my level!" Silvix says. "Do you want to still fight me?"

"We'll beat you!" Sonic says.

"You're running out of time. Veran will be born soon. That gives me an idea..." Silvix says.

"What your idea?" Tails asks.

"Chaos Control!" Silvix says.

"No way!" Sonic says. "There's no way he can use that!" No sooner than Sonic said that, then the area they were standing on was frozen.

"Looks like we'll play a little waiting game you weaklings! We'll continue our battle when Veran appears," Silvix says.

"That's no fair!" Tails says.

"Let us go!" Knuckles interjects.
"Silvix, you need another person to beat us?" Sonic replies.

"No. I just want you to face a TRUE hedgehog warrior. I must get the silver emerald in order to show my true power. As you can see I can do Shadow's chaos moves with relative ease. If I defeat you weaklings, I would want my body rather than this poor excuse for a hedgehog. Veran should give a challenge if anything for you," Silvix says.

"I'm impressed Silvix," Knuckles says. "Why does want he to bring back the ancient hedgehogs?"

"We hedgehogs should be ruling the world now. Our time is going to begin now. We have observed this world though our emerald prisons. This world would be in perfect working order if hedgehogs ruled. I have a hit list and you three make this list. I have many more targets," Silvix says.

"You're crazy! We defeated Eggman many times for the same reason," Sonic replies.

"Yeah, but you needed our power in order to defeat that idiot. You think you can defeat the power that has helped so much in the past?" Silvix retorts.

"Yeah. Can you defeat our power?" a voice says.

"Welcome back Veran!" Silvix says.

"It feels good to get out of that tight space." Veran is green and brown. His arms are brown, the rest green. His eyes have a soft, understanding feel to them, and are brown. "Silvix, what happened to your body?" Veran asks.

"Don't worry 'bout that now. Let's defeat these weaklings that oppose us in our quest." Silvix says and releases Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles from the Chaos Control.

"Three-on-two should be fun," Veran says.

"We'll wait five seconds and then someone should attack," Silvix responds.

"5... 4... 3... 2... " Silvix counts down. Before Silvix can end his countdown, Knuckles punches Silvix in the face.

"Hey! I wasn't finish with the countdown!" Silvix yells.

"You said we have five seconds," Knuckles snaps back.

"Veran, let's show these weaklings how we fight," Silvix says.

"Okay Silvix. Who's going to start it off?" Veran asks.

"Go ahead and start. I need the silver emerald to show my power," Silvix replies.

"Right. Let's battle!" Veran shouts.
All five fighters begin to charge each other. Sonic does a homing attack toward Veran. Tails assists Sonic while Knuckles and Silvix begin to uses special moves.

"Now witness my power... Thunder Arrow!" Knuckles yells. Green lightning bolts come and hit Silvix.

"Knuckles, you have great power. I respect an attack like that, but it is not enough. Silver Chaos Spear!" Silvix responds. Shadow's move appears again, but it is silver. The attack hits Knuckles critically.

"Whoa. I've never felt a power like that before," Knuckles says.

"You are running low on life energy, Knuckles. You are just as pathetic as Sonic and Tails," Silvix says.

"I'm stronger than this. We all spent a lot of energy searching for the emerald," Knuckles says.
While this is happening, Sonic and Tails are trying their best with Veran. The homing attack hits Veran.

"Hmm. Not bad," Veran says.

"Tails Whirlwind!" Tails says. His tails begin to spin and create a whirlwind. The whirlwind hits Veran.

"AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Veran yells.

"Tails, you found a weakness!" Sonic says.

"Ugh. It won't be used again. Chaos Root!" Veran says. A giant hand appears from the ground and faces Tails. Veran makes a fist and the hand does the same thing. The hand begins to squeeze Tails.

"Help me Sonic!" Tails shouts. Sonic does a homing attack toward the hand.

"Nice try, Sonic!" Veran says and makes a slap with his free hand. Another hand appears and hits Sonic.

"Ugh!" Sonic says as he flies ten feet in the opposite direction. Veran squeezes his hand until Tails passes out. Veran runs to continue his fight with Sonic. Silvix and Knuckles run in the same direction as Veran.

"As you can plainly see we are better than you guys," Silvix says.

"I thought these guys would be stronger than this," Veran says.

"They are stronger than anything we ever faced," Knuckles says.

"Veran would have been defeated if he hadn't used that cheap trick!" Sonic adds.

"That fox friend of theirs used a wind attack," Veran says.

"We were trained to be ready for any situation even weaknesses," Silvix says.
"If you guys knew the ancient training we received, you might be a challenge." Veran says.

"I'm reasonable. This was just the first battle and there are six emeralds left. We'll give you a chance to surrender. Do you accept?" Silvix says.

"No. We won't quit!" Sonic replies.

"Never. We won't lose!" Knuckles adds.

"You weakling still don't get it. Veran, finish the job!" Silvix commands.

"Right boss! Chaos Root!" Veran says. The two hands appear from the ground again.

"Darn! They're back again." Sonic says.

"Another Chaos move?" Knuckles asks.

"This is the move that got Tails, so be careful!" Sonic yells. Sonic and Knuckles begin to avoid the hands.

"Veran, I sense another emerald near here. Finish them and follow me," Silvix says. Veran nods and continues to move his hands around.

"You guys might be able to dodge the root, but here's another one. Chaos Cutter Leaf!" Veran says. After this command, sharp leaves appear and aim at Sonic and Knuckles.

"Time to finish this. Thunder Arrow!" Knuckles speaks as he continues to dodge the hands and leaves. Green lightning bolts appear and hit Veran. Sonic does a homing attack toward Veran.

"Nice try!" Veran says while forming a fist with a hand and throwing a punch. The root punch hits Sonic and knocks him out.

"Sonic!" Knuckles says. "You're too weak to be competitive," Veran says. "I hope you guys learned that you weaklings are no match for us. Now stay out of our way." Veran lifts his hand in the sky and shouts "Shards of the green emerald come to me!" The shards of the green emerald come and reform in Veran's hand. "See ya! Chaos Control!" Veran says.

"We lost that battle, but we will win the war," Knuckles says. He begins to get the beaten bodies of Sonic and Tails and heads back to the Tornado 2.

Place: Another area of Green Hill

Time: 7:45 PM

"The sun is beginning to set. Where's Veran?" Silvix yells. Veran appears. "I found the yellow emerald," Silvix declares.

"I got my emerald with me. Those weaklings were no problem for me. Where was it?" Veran asks.
"In this thing. It looks like a bird, but no head," Silvix says.

"Time for our group to get bigger," Veran says.

"Right you are Veran. Spirit of the emerald be reborn! Chaos Resurrection!" Silvix yells. Silvix fires the same energy beam he did at the green emerald.

"Thungar, come out of your prison!" Veran shouts. The emerald does not glow and shows no reaction to Silvix's beam.

"That's weird. Thungar should have appeared. His spirit must be somewhere else," Silvix says.

"Let's go after the silver emerald. Let's get your TRUE form back," Veran suggests.

"Good idea! I can be at my full power to reawake the other hedgehogs," Silvix says. "Let's put the green emerald back at my lair and then find the silver emerald."
