Chapter 10: "Mephilles, Mephilles the Dark."

Axel woke up the next morning with Blaze in his arms. He slowly slipped out of bed, trying not to wake Blaze up, as he was getting his clothes on, he heard a voice.

"Axel?" Blaze had woken up.

"Hey Blaze," Axel smiled and hugged her, "last night was good huh?"

"It was great!" she winked at him as she got up. Making him blush wildly. She started to put her clothes on too.

Axel looked at the clock on his wall, it was about half past eight. They went downstairs and had breakfast, trying very hard to avoid Axel's sister, Amber. When they had both finished, Blaze got up and put her jacket on.

"Lets go see Sonic and the others." she suggested.

"Sure." Axel smiled at her.

It wasn't long before they were both at Sonic's house, Axel knocked on the door. The two waited for atleast a minute before Sonic opened the door, with Amy behind him. Blaze raised her eyebrow which made Amy's face turn red, and Sonic look away and scratch the back of his neck.

Axel laughed; "So, d'you two wanna catch a movie with us?"

Amy seemed happy with the change of subject, "We'd love to!" Sonic agreed with a nod.

About half an hour later, they arrived at the Mobotropolis Cinema. "What are we gonna watch?" asked Sonic. "Ooh! Oooh!" Axel jumped up and down, "Lets watch The Dark Knight!"

"No that film sucks." Amy pouted. "Oh! Lets watch Angus, Thongs and Pe-"

"No!" the other three shouted in unison.

"Eeerm." Axel looked up and down the board with the films on it.

"How about Indiana Jones?" Blaze asked.

"Yeah ok," Sonic and Axel spoke at the same time.

"Fine." Amy was still pouting.

At that the four of them went in to watch the movie.

Meanwhile, elswhere, Silver was staying at Tails, he was helping him build the machine again.

"Thanks a lot Silver." Tails said from under the machine, "With your help it should be finished by this time next week."

"No problem Tails." Silver replied.

"Ok you can put it down now." Silver complied.

"D'you mind if I go out for a while?" he asked.

"Yeah no problem, I can work on this myself for a while." Tails smiled, "See you later."

After being outside for a while, Silver had found one of the tallest trees in the forest, and was sat at the very top. He couldn't help but feel hatred toward that damned red hedgehog.

"Silver." A ghostly voice came from behind Silver, who jumped and turned around quickly.

"Hmm? Shadow?"

"No, I'm not Shadow. You don't seem to remember me."

"Should I?" Silver responded quickly.

"I suppose not. My name is Mephilles, Mephilles the Dark." his tone turned dark as he said his name, "I have heard of your dilemma. Your lost love. It doesn't seem right to me. So, I can help you."

"How do you know all..." Silver's voice trailed off, his curiosity had got the best of him, "How can you help?"

A grin formed upon the demons face. He had Silver where he wanted. "Who do you blame for this?"

Silver looked down. "Axel" he said coldly.

"No, its not him."

"Blaze?"

"Not her either. Think the person who supported the one you call "Axel" all the way, the one that distracted you while the kid wooed your girl."

"Sonic?"

"Correct." Mephilles grinned again."

"What can I do?"

"Reap your revenge. Make him suffer..."

"No! I couldn't do that!"

"You have no choice."

"Wha-?!" Silver exclaimed. He could no longer control his body. "No! I can't! I must! No!" Silver fell out of the tree, but was caught by an ebony hedgehog. "Stay away from me Mephilles!" Shadow put Silver down as the grey hedgehog began to squirm on the floor. "Stay out of my head!!!" Silver lost control. "Hahahahahaaa!!!!" His pupils went red. "Muahahahahaha!!!"

"Silver!" Shadow shouted, he was confused, but this "Mephilles" was strangely familiar. "Silver control yourself!"

"Well, well, well, Shadow the Hedgehog... My, it has been a long time."

"How do you know my name?" Shadow demanded. He was however, too slow to react to the knockout punch to the face delivered by Silver. "Now for that accursed blue hedgehog."
