"Sings "I Wanna Fly High" glee Next chappie n' such.

--

Paul sat in his bed. It was about 12:00 at night, and he wasn't able to sleep. In his hands was the gem he found earlier today.

"What is this thing?" He questioned to himself. As if trying to answer his question, a small hologram appeared within the gem.

"What the…"

The hologram showed a large green emerald, then promptly cut out.

"Hey, c'mon, finish what you started!" Paul yelled at the emerald. Unfortunately, the emerald did nothing else…at first.

"Uh oh…"

The emerald started gaining a white tint, glowing brighter and brighter.

"…." Paul was in awe as he watched the emerald turn brighter and brighter until it was pure white. He tried letting go of it, but he found he was unable to. Two words sprang unbidden from his lips.

Chaos…..CONTROL!

It was only after he heard himself yell those words that he knew what it was. It was a Chaos Emerald.

All he remembered after that was a feeling like he was imploding. That was the only way he could describe it.

Paul disappeared in a flash of light.

Black. All was black. Black was all. Then, a feeling. Bitterness. Cold bitterness. Like a snowstorm. Strong wing and light. And not on solid ground.

Paul opened his eyes. Looking down, (Or up.) he noticed something odd, besides the fact that it was cold. He saw clouds.

Snapping to his senses, Paul instantly knew something was wrong.

"AIEEEEEEEEEE!" He was falling from the sky.

Knowing the grave danger he was in, he also noticed that he wasn't flipping through the air.

How am I staying st- He didn't have time to finish his thought as he hit a cloud. Coughing and damp, he continued plummeting.

Somehow, he managed to stop himself from screaming and tried to see how he could take control of the situation. It was then that he noticed something blue whiz underneath him. "Eh?" As if this day couldn't get any weirder.

Falling some more, he realized he was below the cloud line. Knowing he was gonna hit the ground soon, he started to panic. Before he could react, he hit something hard, and blacked out.
