Sonic meets Kingdom Hearts
Chapter 3
The new Number XIII
Castle Oblivion, ever since Sora left this place it had disappeared. It was then transferred back to the world of its creators, The World that Never Was. Menas, the only one left in this world, had begun to use his power to revive the worst villains that Sora had ever faced, Organization XIII. But Menas then saw that only 12 of them appeared before him. "We've been brought back to life, but how?" asked Xemnas, Leader of the Organization. Menas then explained everything to them and how he needed their help to carry out his master plan. Axel, number 8 in the Organization, had a confused look on his face. "Where's Roxas?" he finally asked. Menas then replied, "It appears that Roxas was brought back to life, but has now left Organization XIII permanently. But don't worry, I have already found another to take his place."
Outside the castle, a hedgehog lay unconscious. As he came to, he then looked around. "Where on Earth am I?" asked Silver the Hedgehog. Silver was a hedgehog from the future, who had defeated the terrible beast, Iblis. But the cost of this was the life of his best friend, Blaze the Cat. To this day, Silver still regrets letting Blaze seal Iblis, knowing she would disappear forever. As Silver stepped forward towards the castle, he felt a strange presence come over him. An image began to flash in his brain, an image of a blue hedgehog. "What was that all about?" Silver asked himself, "And who was that strange blue hedgehog?" He decided to ignore it and continued onward to the castle. When he opened the door, he was greeted by a mysterious man in a black cloak. "Welcome to Castle Oblivion, where to find is to lose and to lose is to find," he said as Silver walked towards him. "We've been expecting you, Silver the Hedgehog." Silver then jumped back and said, "Who are you and how do you know who I am!?" The man then removed his hood to reveal a man with red spiky hair. "The name's Axel, got it memorized?" "Uh, sure," Silver replied. "Good," answered Axel, "Now, since we're on a first name basis, don't go dying on my." Then, Axel held his arms out and two rings had appeared in both of his hands. Silver then got ready to defend himself. Axel charged at him with full force and tossed one ring at him. Silver used his psychokinesis to catch the ring and he threw it right back at Axel. But the ring went right through him with out hurting him. Axel started to laugh at Silver's technique. "You really thought your psychokinesis could help you? I can't be hurt by my own weapons, fool." Axel then dashed at Silver and hit him head on. Silver was knocked against a wall. This can't be the end, Silver thought to himself. Just then, a flash of light caressed Silver's right hand. When the light faded, a mysterious weapon appeared in his hand. "What is this thing?" Silver asked. "So it's true," Axel stated. "You are a master of the Keyblade." "The Keyblade?" Silver puzzled. Axel then began to move forward. "But just because you have that weapon, THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN BEAT ME!!" Silver then blocked Axel's attack and slashed at him once. At that moment, Axel fell to his knees. "So this is why he chose you," he chuckled. Silver turned to him. "Who are you?" "That's for me to know and for you to find out," Axel said and disappeared into a black portal. Silver looked at the keyblade with amazement. "With this weapon, I just might be unstoppable."
When Axel returned, he then made his way toward Menas. "So this is why you wanted this hedgehog." "Yes," Menas replied, "he is just the one we need to carry out our plan." Axel grinned at this idea. "I guess we may have found our new number 13."
