" W... What I desire?" Silver asked, the Ceaelihog let him go.
" Why yes" the being moved swiftly, his tentacles acting like a fin and propel him along the water " I can see it, you're in love!" he stated.
Silver backed away, how did he figure that. The Ceaelihog crawled along his cave wall like a spider, he appeared behind Silver " It's alright" he called starting the Merhog. The Sea warlock chuckled at his amusement watching Silver fidget in his sight.
" And your not in love with any Mermobian" he spoke " oh no I believe it one of those land Mobians, a princess" the Ceaelihog shifted over to a cabin he open the door up " not that I blame you" she is quiet a beauty...Like that opal necklace your wearing" he spoke.
Silver clutched onto the opal gem on the necklace.
" Relax I'm not interested in gems" Mephiles spoke, going through his cabin he took out a jar " hmm... nope that one has expired" he said tossing it, the bottle landed and exploded making Silver jump. Mephiles continued to rummage through his cabin till he found what he was looking for
" Ah yes" he called " seahorse scales, shark teeth, squid ink an" he looked over to Silver " I need a few quills from a Merhog..A male Merhog"
Silver swallowed his breath, he had a feeling the Ceaelihog was talking about him . Mephiles morphed a chair out of the sand on his floor " come sit it won't hurt" he said.
Silver swam up to the chair and sat down, then Mephiles begun plucking.
" OUCH!" Silver cried out, Mephiles pulled out 3 quills from the merhogs head. Silver rubbed the back of his head.
" Come with me" Mephiles instructed.

" We better go in after him" Sonic said, Amy didn't want to but she had to be brave so she followed Sonic in the cave. It was dark for them but as they herd voices the two hid behind the wall and watched.
.. . ..
In another room of the cave it was well lit and in the middle of the room was a cauldron. Mephiles started to add in the quills, the shark teeth and seahorse scales.
" I'll make you a potion that make you Mobian" he said
" Me.. A mobian?" Silver asked " as in..I get mobian legs?"
" Yes but!" Mephiles warned " if you legs or any other part of you touches the ocean water.. you turn back into a Merhog" he warned " the potion will take effect when you take your first step on land" .
Silver never thought of it being possible, him a mobain, walking on land, and then he can see the stars and moon all he wanted.
" But" Mephiles spoke breaking the boy's day dream " I'm not doing this for free" he said " You have to give me something in return"
" If you not interested in gems... what is it I can give you?" Silver asked
" Your voice" Mephiles pulled out a small glass bottle " You voice will be payment enough!"
" M.. My voice?" Silver asked placing a hand over his neck " but with out my voice how can I tell the mobian girl that I..."
" Don't worry, besides, A man who listens is all any girl wants" Mephiles chuckled
.. ..
Sonic looked down at Amy, Amy rolled her eyes " don't look at me" she said tried to be innocent " altho it be nice to have a conversation with out you interrupting me" she said that part to herself.
. . .
" So Do we have a deal?" Mephiles asked. Silver though it over, life on land, but that would mean his mother, father and sisters would miss him and his friends. but then if he refused he wouldn't be able to see Blaze again.
Mephiles held out his hand " Well?" he asked. Silver made his choice, he shook with Mephiles hand.
Electric surge emitted through Silvers arm, the Merhog cried out in pain, then his voice went hoarse then it was silent. a light blue glow traveled from Silver's throat, down his arm through Mephiles arm then the light blue glow emerged from his chest and into the glass jar.
Mephiles let the Merhog go , Silver got swallowed up by a bubble. Sonic and Amy came out of their hiding spot.
Mephiles spoted them " I wondered when you two would show" he said " and it's a good thing you came, after he's done transforming you better bring him to the surface...Mobians can't breath water" he started to chuckle.
" Poor unfortunate soul " He said.
Silver curled up in a ball as the transformation was painful, it felt like some one took a knife and sliced his tail in half, his blue tail was split and then turned into two legs . When the transformation ended the bubble burst and Silver tried to breath but it was difficult. he tried to swim but found it hard to. Sonic and Amy swam to his side and pulled him in the opening of the cave in the ceiling. Mephiles laughter heard as the three swam further and further away and up to the shore.
Silver emerge from the water gasping for air. Sonic and Amy took him by the arms and started to swim for shore.
Silver made a deal and he's now a mobian...
