Episode 9: Hammering Up a Storm

Flying over the sky, Sonic, Sun, and the others are heading towards their destination. Sun looks to see Sonic and Silver are sitting on the wings of the plane like it's nothing.

Sun asks, "So Sally, where exactly are we going?"

"We're going to Stormtop village in the Dragon Kingdom," Sally says.

"Yeah. You'll like it there. We have a few friends we like to meet," Sonic says.

"Who are they?" Sun asks.

"Well, there's Monkey Khan, Li-Yuen, and his granddaughter Li-Moon. I'm sure they like to meet you," Sonic says.

"I guess, but first we need to take care of what we hard. I have to wonder why Glittering Sparkle will be in there of all places. Unless, Dr. Eggman sent her here," Sun says.

"I can understand your skepticism. Even though I have no clue why she here, and I haven't really met her yet," Silver says.

"You'll meet her soon enough. That chick is one big pain in the neck and will do anything to get the Chaos Emeralds and destroy Sun," Sonic says.

"After what Sun told us about her, I can't believe part of this is because of jealousy," Sally says.

"I think it sounds sad," Sonic says.

"You can say that again," Silver says.

Sally then looks down and says, "Look, we're there now."

Sun and the others look down to see Stormtop village. Sun is amazed to see the houses and the people are living like they're part of some Japanese culture. She remembers Mist Mane wearing an outfit like the clothes the Mobians are wearing.

Sometime later, Sally lands the plane off the ground and everyone gets off of it, and head towards the village.

Sun looks around and says, "The place looks very nice, but it didn't look like anything was damages."

"I suspect Ken must have got Glittering Sparkle away from the village, or she is planning to attack later," Sally says.

"That what worries me," Sun says in concern.

"Don't worry Sun, we'll find her before she can cause any more trouble," Silver says.

Sun nods her head in reply. Sun and the others walk towards the village. Unknown to them, someone is spying on them from a distance. The being is a dark figure that it shows to be wearing some kind of armor and has a dark purple cape. Being grits its teeth in anger to see Sun is among them.

Back in Stormtop Village, Sonic and the others meet an elderly gold yellow furred lion with a brown mane, and wears a blue rob. Sally, Silver, Cream, and Cheese bow in respect. Sun decides to follow their lead.

Sonic however says, "Hey Li-Yuen, long time no see."

"Sonic," Sally sternly says.

"Not to worry, it is a pleasure to see you all again and you arrived as soon as you can," Li-Yuen says.

Then notices Sun, "And I see you have a new face among your group."

"Right. Sun, this is Li-Yuen. He's the village elder. Li-Yuen, this is Sun," Sally introduces.

Sun bows in respect, "Hello, it's nice to meet you, sir."

"It is good to meet you, child, I can sense you have a good heart and a good friend to those who you showed love and compassion," Li-Yuen says.

Sun blushes, "Thank you."

Silver asks, "Li-Yuen, can you tell us more about the one who attacked Monkey Khan?"

"And mind if we see him?" Sally asks.

"Of course. Monkey Khan is still recovering from his injuries, but visitors are welcome," Li-Yuen says.

Not long, Li-Yuen lead Sonic and the others down the hall and towards a sliding door.

Li-Yuen says, "Li-Moon, our friends have come to visit."

The sliding door opens to reveal a red fox wearing a purple short robe with white laces, matching pants and shoes. She has long black hair that has a black ribbon on the bottom.

"Hello grandfather, I just finished changing Monkey Khan's bandages," Li-Moon says.

Then invites them in, "Please come in. I'm sure Ken will like you to visit."

"Thank you, Li-Moon," Sally says.

Li-Moon escorts Sun and the Freedom Fighters into the room. Sonic and Sally are shocked to see their friend is sitting on the ground with many parts of his body are bandaged. Sun sees Monkey Khan is a monkey mobian by the name. He wears a headband on his head and a red and blue colored vest with gold shoulder armor.

Sally sits on her knees, "Hello Ken, how are you feeling?"

"Hello Sally, it's good to see you again. Regretfully, my body feels so sorry as of now. I won't be able to get out for a short while," Ken says.

"You're one tough monkey you know. Then again, you don't really know about who you were facing," Sonic says. says.

"And like you do? And I might add that I'm surprised you're back. I heard you disappeared." Ken says, sternly.

Sun steps forward, "Actually, we have a good idea who she is, and it's rather a long story."

"And who might you be?" Ken asks

"My name is Sun. And I know exactly who the person is," Sun says.

Sonic then says, "You see, our friend Sun, came from a different world. What happened to me is that me along with my friends were sent into her world while we were trapped in the seven Chaos Emeralds. At the same time, the Master Emerald shattered and scattered into her world."

"Let's not forget about the Dark Chaos Emerald Dr. Eggman created," Sally adds.

"Dark Chaos Emerald?" Ken says confused.

"We're not entirely sure what it is, but Dr. Eggman created it so he can have power over the Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald. However, it caused Chaos Control and sent them to my home world. My friends and I were able to find the emeralds and the Master Emerald. However, Glittering Sparkle found the Dark Chaos Emerald and has been using it. And it's now attached to her chest," Sun says.

"Sun suspect the Dark Chaos Emerald is beginning to corrupt her mind. She explains that Glittering Sparkle, the girl who attacked you, has been jealous of Sun and seeked to destroy her. The more power she uses and the more resentment she has, the more it corrupts that girl's mind," Silver says.

Ken says, "So as to what I understand, most of it is Dr. Eggman's fault."

"Exactly, what's worse, Glittering Sparkle and Dr. Eggman have joined forces and has been trying to take the Emeralds while we're trying to free the others. Sonic, Cream and Cheese, and Knuckles are out, but we still have Amy, Tails, Shadow, and Rouge to rescue. After that, we need to stop Dr. Eggman, defeat Glittering Sparkle, and find a way to get Sun and Glittering Sparkle to their home world," Sally says.

"That sounds like you all have a long journey ahead of you," Khan says.

"No kidding. We already had to deal with that crazy chick, and now she's attacking here," Sonic says.

Sun asks, "Do you have any idea what she was doing here?"

"If she is working with Eggman, then she must be meeting Conquering Storm and the Raiju Clan," Monkey Khan says.

"Who?" Sun asks.

"She the Bride of the Conquering Storm and leader of Kynx Ninjas," Sally says.

"Oh," Sun replies

"When I asked of her reason for being here, she attacked me. I tried my best to stop her or find out any reason for her sudden appearance, she overpowered me," Monkey Khan says.

Sun says in concern, "I was afraid of this. Glittering Sparkle is getting stronger."

"We need to find her quick before anything else happens," Sonic says.

Suddenly, they feel the room shaking like crazy and begin to hear the sound of people screaming. Sonic, Sally, Sun, and the others hurry outside and gasp in shock to what they're seeing.

What they see a strange being wearing a gold like armor with some purple purple parts of the armor on it. The purple part of the armor also has spiked shoulders. The helmet has horns on it with a purple gem in the front. It is also wearing a dark purple cloak with normal purple on the inside.

"What in the world is that thing?" Sonic asks.

"I think I know who it is," Sun says.

Sun then activates the Sonic Charm and uses its power. She jumps in the sit and spin dashes it on the chest. However, she lands on the ground just outside of the city.

Sun rubs her head, "What was that? That thing is made of steel or something."

"Of course, Sun. I had to create something in order to battle against you," The familiar voice says from the armor.

Sun eyes wide in shock, "Glittering Sparkle?!"

The person removes the helmet to reveal Glittering Sparkle's face. Sun gasps to see that her body seems different, besides the new armor. Glittering Sparkle's skin has changed to a gray color, her light brown hair dark brown with purple streaks, and her blue eyes turn a deep dark purple color.

"Oh no. This must be the Dark Chaos Emerald's doing," Sun thinks.

Sun asks, "Glittering Sparkle, what are you doing in the Dragon Kingdom? Why did you attacked Monkey Khan when he was just trying to reason?"

"Hmph. I was just doing a little errand for Dr. Eggman in the Dragon Kingdom. I didn't expect to run not that short tempered monkey. I thought I should tell him that I do not like to be interrupted and don't want anyone in my way," Glittering Sparkle sternly says.

"That doesn't give you a reason to attack him, or for you to come here. He and the people of this village are innocent," Sun angrily says.

"If it gives me a chance to destroy you, then I don't care what happens to the village," Glittering Sparkle says. Then suddenly, her eyes flickers red.

Sun grits her teeth and sees what is happening, "This is bad. The Dark Chaos Emerald corrupting her the more she uses it."

Then notices, "What is she?"

What Sun seeing is Glittering Sparkle raising her hand to reveal dark purple electricity.

Glittering Sparkle smirks and says, "Well Sun, ready to be blasted into pieces."

"I'm not going to allow you to hurt anyone else," Sun says.

Sun uses her geode to activate her geode. This time, she transforms with her ears, wings, and hair, but she gains the outfit she wears from the Memory Stone adventure and at Equestria Land. Sun then activate the Knuckles' charm and gain the white gloves with spikes on it.

"I'll do whatever it takes to protect these people and stop you before you cause any more damage," Sun angrily says.

"Bringing on little miss goody goody," Glittering Sparkle angrily says.

Then fires, "Chaos Thunder!"

Glittering Sparkle uses her powers to attack, Sun. Sun flies in the air with her wings. She then uses the Sonic charm to accelerate her flight and dodge the attack at top speed. She Sun reaches her range with the enemy, Sun punches Glittering Sparkle on the chest. Glittering Sparkle is pushes down and skids through the ground.

Glittering Sparkle gets up on her feet and fires, "Chaos Spear!"

Dark Chaos Spears begin to fly across the area. Sun uses her wings to dodge the attack. Sadly, the Chaos Spears are heading towards the Village. Sun turns around with a gasp in shock. She turns around and flies back as fast as she can. She then uses the Sonic to gain some speed. When she is in front of the attacks. Sun then uses her fire powers to create a thick wall. She then uses her powers to harden the fire until it a hot rock wall. The Dark Chaos Spears hit the wall and prevent the Village from being hit. Hurrying out of the shrine, Sonic and the others are surprised to see Sun's powers.

"I must admit, your friend is a more powerful than she appears to be," Monkey Khan says.

"I know, but our buddy can use some help," Sonic says.

Sonic then speeds over to join in on the fight. Sun then cancels out the wall and the fire disappears. Sun turns to see Glittering Sparkle charges at her and punches Sun in the stomach. Then kicks her in the face. Sun then falls down to the ground. Sun groans as she sits up and is trying to stand on her feet. Unknown to her, Glittering Sparkle is standing behind her from a distance and has dark energy emitting from her hand.

Glittering Sparkle, "I owe you from all the beating you gave me, princess."

Suddenly, Cream lands her feet on Glittering Sparkle's head, "Sun, look out!"

Then Sonic spin dashes her on the back, causing Sun to turn around.

Sonic says, "Just stay down already!"

"We stood by long enough!" Monkey Khan says.

"Get her!" Sally screams.

Glittering Sparkle angrily says, "I thought I took you out, monkey boy!"

"I may be injured, but I won't allow you to attack the free people of this village!" Monkey Khan angrily says.

Khan then uses his staff to expose thunder and lighting. He then fires at Glittering Sparkle. Glittering Sparkle uses her Dark Chaos Energy to create a shield. Sally then attacks with her ring blades. Glittering Sparkle then creates a sword ant strikes back. Sun then uses her Knuckles charm to join in on the fight. Sonic spin dashes the enemy on her back. Cheese then flies past her and hit her in the face. Cream jumps in and slams her feet at Sparkle's face.

Sun and Sonic lands on their feet besides each other.

"Glittering Sparkle has gotten stronger than the last time I saw her," Sun says.

"I know. How are we going to stop that chick?" Sonic asks.

Sun turns to Sonic, "Let's try the Double Spin Dash."

"Good idea," Sonic says.

Sun then uses her Sonic charm to activate her speed. Sonic and Sun begins to use their speed together and right toward Glittering Sparkle.

They shout, "Double Spin Dash!"

Sonic and Sun spin dash at top speed and spin around against each other in a circle. Glittering Sparkle pushes Monkey Khan away from her, but quickly turns around to see the two spin dashes. The spin dashes hit her in the stomach and sends her flying and crashes to the base of the mountain.

Sonic cheers, "Yeah! We too down the evil dragon witch!"

Suddenly, Glittering Sparkle slams her fist at Sonic.

Sun screams, "Sonic!"

Glittering Sparkle then punches Sun in the stomach and kicks her to the ground.

Silver then uses his powers to on Glittering Sparkle, "That's enough!"

"Who are you supposed to be?!" Glittering Sparkle demands.

"My name is Silver the Hedgehog! I came to help my friends stop you!" Silver angrily says.

"Sounds cute. You got me put in a stand still. But…" Glittering Sparkle says.

She smirks and breaks free from the psychokinesis. Then fires Chaos Energy at Sally, Khan, and Silver.

Cream then jumps on Glittering Sparkle head and says, "Leave me friends along you big meanie!"

Glittering Sparkle grabs Cream by her ears in anger, "I don't have time to deal with a weak little plush toy like you!"

Glittering Sparkle then throws Cream away and the poor rabbit slams to the ground. Sonic, and the others ate shocked to see what Glittering Sparkle has done.

Sun stands up and gasps in shock to see Cream has fallen to the ground and is injured.

"Cream!" Sun panics.

"Chao Chao!" Cheese panics.

Sun quickly runs towards her, "Cream! Cream!"

"Chao Chao," Cheese says in a panic.

Sonic and the others become shocked to see Cream is badly hurt and on the ground. Sally is on the verge of crying.

Sun holds Cream in her arms, "Cream, are you okay?! Cream?! Cream?!"

Cream slowly opens her eyes, but only half way.

She slowly turns to Sun and asks, "S-sun… a-are you… o-okay?"

"I-I… never mind me! Are you alright?!" Sun asks, beginning to shed tears.

"I'm okay… barely," Cream answers.

Sun shed tears as she holds Cream deeply in her arms. Cheese flies to Cream and rubs his head against Cream's. Sonic and the others can see how worried Sun is about Cream, and know that Cheese is as well.

Khan viciously glares at the enemy, "You'll pay for this! How dare you hurt an innocent child?!"

"Oh please, that weakling shouldn't get in my way," Glittering Sparkle says, and her eyes glow red all of the sudden.

Sun opens her eyes in shock at Glittering Sparkle's statement.

"I-I'm w-weak?" Cream softly asks.

"No… no you're not. You saved me. You're not weak at all. You're very brave and strong for someone your size and age," Sun protest as tears comes down her face.

"Please, that little shrimp couldn't withstand my kind of power. The same goes for her annoying little blue rat!" Glittering Sparkle says.

This makes Sun grits her teeth in anger. She can't stand the way Glittering Sparkle is saying something awful to Cream and Cheese. Saying Cream is weak and Cheese a rat ticks her off. Sun places Cream on the ground and brings out the cyan blue Chaos Emerald that begins to glow. Cheese sits down next to her.

"Cream. Cheese. Just leave everything to me," Sun says.

Cream and Cheese nod their heads in reply.

Sun then brings out not only the cyan blue Chaos Emerald and her medallion.

Sun angrily says, "Glittering Sparkle, what you did is going way too far! Hurting sweet Cream and calling her weak and calling Cheese a rat!"

"Why do you care?!" Glittering Sparkle asks.

"Cream and Cheese are not weak! In fact, Cream and Cheese are brave, full of light and hope! Even when they were separated from their friends, her mother, and from each other…. They still believe they're able to see them again! And… I will not let you hurt them!" Sun says with anger yet shows strong compassion for Cream and Cheese.

Suddenly, the Cyan blue Chaos Emerald glow and two balls of light blue light comes out. One lands on Sun's bracelet and shows a silhouette of a pink hedgehog. Then her medallion flies up in the air and transform into a large hammer that matches her hair color. Sun is a bit surprised and grabs on to it.

Then the other cyan blue lands on the ground besides Sun, and forms a pink hedgehog with emerald green eyes. She wears a red dress with white trims with matching boots, white gloves, and gold wristbands. She is holding a red and yellow hammer.

The hedgehog says, "Hi! It's nice to meet you. My name is Amy. Amy Rose."

"Hi. My name is Sun. It's nice to meet you and I'm sure you like to see your friends, but we have her to stop," Sun says, turning to Glittering Sparkle.

"Yeah. I was able to hear everything what she said about Cream and Cheese. I can sense your anger at Glittering Sparkle and your friendship for Cream and Cheese. I say," Amy says.

Then holds her hammer out with a smirk, "Let's teach her a lesson."

"I think you're right," Sun says, holding her new hammer.

Sun and Amy runs over to Glittering Sparkle and they're both really angry with her.

Confused, Glittering Sparkle asks, "Uh, where did you get that…"

Before she can ask, Amy slams her hammer at Glittering Sparkle and sends her to the ground. Glittering Sparkle feels a bit dizzy. Glittering Sparkle gets up and is not pleased. The next moment, Sun then slams Glittering Sparkle with her new hammer. Glittering Sparkle is thrown and crashes into a tree. She soon feels dizzy that birds fly over her head.

Sun takes deep breaths and angrily says, "That one was for Cream and Cheese!"

Sun turns to Amy and says, "Um, sorry if you had to see me. I hardly get mad like this."

"That's okay. I understand the feeling. Cream is like a little sister to me," Amy says.

Just then, someone calls, "Sun! Amy!"

Sun and Amy turn their heads to see Sonic, Sally and the others.

Amy eyes sparkles and tears comes out.

She runs over as she happily screams, "Soooonnnniiiiiicccccc!"

She then dives towards Sonic for a big hug and they both fall to the ground with a thud. Sonic sits up to see Amy crying and hugging him like crazy.

Amy screams, "Oh Sonic! Are you alright?! You're not hurt are you?! I thought I would never see you again! I'll never forgive Eggman for what he did to us!"

"Amy! Off! NOW!" Sonic says.

Then Amy begins to kiss Sonic rapidly.

Sonic panics, "This isn't a kissing booth!"

Sun asks with a calm smile, "Is this what they're always like?"

"Pretty much," Sally says.

Silver walks over to them with Cream in her arms and Cheese on his head.

Amy gasps and remembers Cream.

She hurries towards her and panics, "Oh Cream, are you okay?! Did that mean witch hurt you?! I'll never forgive her for hurting you!"

"She's going to need medical attention right away," Silver says.

Khan says, "Come, we'll take her to Li-Yuen."

"Okay," Silver says.

Sun turns her head, "And you better do it fast, cause Glittering Sparkle is not down yet."

Sonic and the others turn their heads to see Glittering Sparkle standing and spreads her new dragon wings as the back of her armor shatters.

Sun turns to the others and says, "Everyone, get to the village to safety. I'll deal with her."

"As I suspected from you Sun," Glittering Sparkle says.

Glittering Sparkle then creates a dark Chaos Energy from her hands. Sun then brings out her new hammer. Then activates the powers of the Sonic charm. Sun the flies toward Glittering Sparkle and holds out her hammer. She then uses the charm to accelerate her speed. Glittering Sparkle then uses her dark energy and flies towards Sun. Soon, they both collide the attack. Sun then focus her energy with the Chaos Emeralds and Glittering Sparkle uses the Dark Chaos Emerald to attack.

Suddenly, the powers of the emeralds cause a massive explosion. Glittering Sparkle is thrown back away from the village. Sun is thrown in the opposite direction and to where the mountains are.

Sonic screams, "SUUUUUNNNN!"

Sonic, Sally, and the others are shocked to see different powers collide and cause both fighters to be thrown back.

Somewhere far from Stormtop Village, Sun is laying on the ground and feels pain from the fall she has. Sun groans as she begins to sit up. She touches her left arm to feel pain coming from it.

"My… my arm… I-I think might have broken it," Sun thinks, feeling pain.

Sun looks around to see that she is no longer near Stormtop Village. Then she remembers the blast from when she and Glittering Sparkle collide their strong attacks at each other.

"That blast was very strong. Glittering Sparkle has gained some strange armor and now she is getting stronger. If I don't do something, she'll end up losing her true self and become something under the influence of not only her jealousy and bitterness, but also the negative energy the Dark Chaos Emerald," Sun thinks.

Sun sighs, "I need to get back to the others. They must be worried about me, but how am I going to get back to the village."

Sun looks around to see if she can see the village as she clutches her left arm. Sun tries to get up, but her body feels very weak from using so much of her powers and from the fall. Her injuries and exhaustion are preventing from going anywhere.

Unknown to Sun, a strange large ring opens up behind her. Then two gray bandaged hands with gold rings on the arms come out of it. Before Sun can react, someone covers her mouth and drags her through the ring. Only Sun's special necklace, the one her mother had made for her has come off and lands on the ground where she once stands. The large ring disappears into thin air. Worst of all, no one knows what has happened to Sun.
