The 3 Shadows, Episode 3 - Miles' Tail
Chapter 7 - Miles wakes up
Miles awoke in a strange bed. The room he had been sleeping in was rather plain and basic. It was rather cold and the only light came from a single bulb that had been on for quite some time. He scratched his forehead and realised then that the crown was gone. He was back to normal but the question of how went through his mind straight away.
The door to the room opened and the GUN general walked through with Diamond.
"Oh good you're awake", said the General.
"General? What the hell happened? First I was under Gerald's control, fighting a small army of GUN robots then I wake up here back to normal", said Miles, "And who is she?"
"This is Diamond the Rabbit. We hired her to free all 3 Shadows' minds one by one. She infiltrated Gerald's base and, while your party of 4 were split up, she took you out using the taser we gave her", said the General.
"And the crown?" asked Miles.
"Currently being adjusted so Gerald wont have control over you", said the General.
"You and I are going to take down the other two Shadows and free their minds aswell. For that we need you to return to the base with your crown to avoid suspicion", said Diamond.
"I see, but I reckon I can take out the other Shadows myself. Seeing as how they'll think I'm still one of them I can shoot Shadow's crown easily. Joz's though will be a lot harder, seeing as how he has his bullet reflect technique", said Miles.
"With Shadow at your side though it should be no problem right?" asked the General.
"Perhaps", replied Miles.
"Why don't you just tranquilize them?" asked Diamond, "Why are we making this difficult?"
"The darts material would probably be sensed by Joz, so it wouldn't work. And Shadow's too fast to hit with a dart. In fact I don't think a bullet would hit Shadow at all", said Miles.
"Looks like we'll have to do things the hard way. Two against two. I'll take on Joz, you can concentrate on Shadow", said Diamond.
"It's reckless, but it's our only chance", said Miles, "Let's do it"
"Ok! We'll take you back to the base as soon as possible", said the General.
Later they arrived outside Gerald's Palace base again. Diamond Jumped through the vents while Miles simply walked inside. For the time being they hadn't realised Miles was free from Gerald's control. He walked inside the main room just as Diamond reached the vents above to watch from.
"Miles! What happened to you?" asked Joz.
"Don't worry, GUN captured me but I escaped", said Miles.
"Did your crown get damaged?" asked Gerald.
"I don't think so", replied Miles. Miles had crept closer to Shadow. He turned to Shadow
"Why are you looking at me like that?" asked Shadow.
Miles quickly aimed his shooters and fired at Shadow's Crown. Joz had dashed over and reflected the bullet with his sword.
"They did get to you didn't they?" asked Shadow, "Well now you're going to pay". Joz held the annemuir at Miles' throat. Miles began to shake in fear.
"Joz, I'm your friend try to remember", said Miles.
"Finish him, now. We can't let him live he's a liability", said Gerald.
Suddenly Diamond jumped out of the vents and withdrew a sword from a holder strapped to her back. She struck at Joz who retaliated by smashing his own sword into hers. He then kicked her away, leaving her to slide across the floor.
"Well who do we have here?" asked Joz.
"I'm Diamond the Rabbit and I'm here to free your mind Master hunter", replied Diamond.
"Oh! Could you be one of those Deadly gems I've heard so much about. Well this might be interesting", said Joz
Diamond stood up holding her sword ready to fight Joz. Meanwhile Shadow had grabbed Miles from behind, holding Miles' arms behind Miles' back. Miles couldn't move.
"Forget about me friend?" asked Shadow. Miles flipped Shadow over and smashed him into the ground.
"No, I'm just getting started", said Miles aiming his shooters at Shadow.
"Live entertainment, how brilliant. Knock these two out, I'll create new crowns for them. They'll make excellent additions to our force", said Gerald.
"As you wish, Master", said Joz and Shadow at the same time.
