Oh my god, I am so sorry. I accidentally uploaded the chapter for Triple Shadows: Remix for this one! I'm really sorry, I got a little carried away while uploading so, here's the real chapter. Oh, and this chapter introduces the adult character's childern. All are mine.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the outside, the Prower household looked almost normal. It was medium-sized, painted a nice shade of yellow-orange. But upon entering the house, you would find it anything but ordinary. Various machines littered the house, most of which were created by Tails. The twin-tailed fox was an inventor extrordanare, having been revered by scientists the world over for his mechanical prowess. Despite this, he preffered to live a modest lifestyle with his wife, Cream the Rabbit, and their son Chak, a yellow kitsune with orange markings. Chak had an intelligence rivalling his Tails at his age (which was almost seven), but was as kind as his mother. He even had his own chao, an orange flyer named Charo. As the twins entered the house, Chak greeted them at the door.

"Akumu, Yume," he greeted, "How nice to see you guys. We were wondering when you two would show up."

"You were expecting us?" Yume asked, taken aback.

"Well, all the other kids are here, so I assumed you'd show up sooner or later." Chak lead them into the living room, which was indeed filled with kids. The first to be noticed was Amythyst, the only kid the twin's age, and Sonic and Amy's only daughter. She looked like her mother with long hair, and fur that was a deep shade of violet. She wore a red dress like her nother, with matching boots. The girl was also quite fast, and a master with a wrench. She sometimes helped "Uncle" Tails out with his projects. Yume cast a glare at her, for the two had a rivalry. Akumu didn't mind Yume, he actually sort of liked her.

Beside Amythyst was Scorge, who was also Sonic's kid, but no one knew the mother. He was going to be eighteen in a few months, and he could finally leave home. He looked a lot like his father, with white fur that faded to blue. He wore a purple vest with matching boots, and bright green eyes. His navy-blue bat wings fluttered in irritation, for he was getting impatient. Much like his father, he didn't like to sit still long. Beside him was his best friend Mic, a thrice-reincarnated Angel chao. No one was sure how old the chao was, but they knew it was old.

On another couch was Knuckle's and Blaze's two children. There was an eleven year old purple echidna by the name of Burn, who was the next-in-line as guardian of the Master Emerald. He was basically a purple replica of his father, except with a long tail and yellow eyes. His dreadlocks were tied in a ponytail. Beside him was Magma, a purple cat with redish-pink hair. She wore a pink dress, and also wore her hair in a pony-tail. While her mother had fire-powers, Magma's power was self-explanitory. She could summon lava with the snap of her powers, but had been trained to keep it under control. She was a hyper seven year old, and next in line to guard the Sol Emeralds.

Finally, on a different set of chairs were Akumu and Yume's cousins, who were also distantly related to Burn and Magma. Tikal and Gemini's kids, Gem and Sai. Gem was a black echidna with orange stripes, bright blue eyes. She was about eight, and wore a blue dress. Beside her was Sai, a hedgeidna the same age as Burn. He was black with magenta stripes, hedgehog ears with echidna quills and fists. He had a fluffy patch of fur on his chest, and wore sunglasses like his father. Both kids were magic-proficient, Sai in dark magic and Gem in chaos magic.

"You're right Chak," Yume noted, "the gang's all here. But where are your parents?"

"That's what we're here to figure out," Burn explained. "Our parents have all disappeared."

"Uh huh," Gem said, "One day they were there, and the next they were just gone! Like magic!"

"Well, can't you just track them?" Akumu asked. Chak hung his head.

"No, we tried that," He explained, Charo sighing beside him. "The signal isn't strong enough for my computer to pick up."

"I bet we could use that Chaos Emerald you have there to increase the chances of finding it," Sai said as he pointed at Akumu's hand, since he had a sense for Chaos Energy like his mother.

"Yeah, that would probably work," Chak agreed, as Akumu handed them the emerald. While Chak set it up, the kids discussed what had happened.

"Well, our dad had gone off for a run," Amythyst explained. "He wasn't back for dinner, so Mom started to worry about him. She sent Mr. Eno to go after him, and said she'd go search for Dad tomorrow. After that, we all went to bed. When we woke up, she was gone."

"Maybe she went after him as soon as it was tommorrow?" Magma guessed.

"No, she never wakes up before five a.m, and we were awake since four since we couldn't sleep," Scorge replied. "Besides, Eno said he'd be back in the morning, but he never showed.

"Our Mom was missing a whole day," Burn said. "She was gone in the morning, so Dad had us search the island all day for her. We even got Sai, Gem, and their parents to help. Nothing."

"Then the next day, our Mom and Uncle Knuckles both disappeared," Sai added. "Dad freaked. He went off to find them, and he hasn't been back since."

"Our Mom and Ciel just disappeared," Yume said. "Mom said she couldn't find Ciel when she was at Club Rouge, so we figured he was lost or something. Then, when we woke up, Mom was gone too."

"So it's the same thing with all our parents," Akumu decided. "One parent disappears in the middle of the night. The other one looks for them and then either doesn't come back, or is gone the next night."

"Almost done," Chak announced. "Now, has anyone seen anything unusual on the night of the disappearenceses? I noticed that almost all of our A.I. robots were missing."

"That's odd," Scorge said. "I thought I heard Amy talking to someone in the middle of the night."

"Me too!" Yume exclaimed. "I thought I heard her talking to Dad!" Everyone stared at Yume after this sudden outburst.

"You mean Uncle Shadow?" Gem asked. "He was back?"

"Yeah, but he must have left," Akumu replied.

"Maybe he took our parents for some reason," Burn declared.

"Or maybe it was Eggman," Scorge muttered.

"Who's Eggman?" almost all the kids asked at once. Scorge sighed.

"He's a mad scientist our parents fought," he explained, Mic chaoing in agreement. "He was a human, but turned into an echinda cyborg. Eggman was a Machine Master, but his base was destroyed by Shadow and Sonic. No one's seen him since. Also, I've heard once that his grandfather created Mr. Shadow, Gemini, and Ciel over sixty years ago!" The room fell silent, until Chak's computer started to beep.

"Hey, the signal's working!" He exclamied. "I see a faint signal from everyone coming from..." The kitsune scanned the screen for a minute, all the kids watching in anticipation.

"Well, where is it?" Scorge asked impatiently.

"The signal seems to be emmitting from the Nocturne Mountains," Chak said slowly. "It seems that they're in some heavily fortified building. It's interferring with the signal, so I can't get a good reading." He stared for half a minute more. "It says it's in a place called Cybex Capital. What an odd name."

"Well then, we're just going to have to go there and find them," Scorge declared.

"You can't go Scorge," Chak said. "You're the oldest, so it's your responsibility to keep an eye on us. I need to stay here, and see if I can get any more info."

"Burn and I have to go home and guard the emeralds," Magma explained.

"We can go," Yume said, "and we'll get back our parents! Everyone else can all go to Angel Island and stay safe. Scorge, you should go keep and eye on them."

"Because I'm the oldest, I know," The hedgebat sighed.

"Don't think you're leaving me behind," Amythyst declared. "I'm old enough to go too!"

"You'd just get in the way," Yume snapped. "Akumu and I work alone."

"We'll, you can't tell me what to do," Amythyst replied smugly. "You aren't my parents, and I am older than you two."

"Only by a few months!" Yume snarled.

"Okay, cool it you two," Akumu said, getting in between the girls. "Look, we need all the help we can get to make sure we succeed. I'm sure it won't be that bad having her along, Yume."

"Oh, fine then," Yume finally agreed, "Let's go."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So now Akumu, Yume, and Amythyst are off to Cybex Capital! What will they encounter there? You'll see!
