Epilogue:
Darkness had fell on Angel Island, people had already left, a familiar light blue hedgehog sat in front of a headstone, crying lightly.
"You ok?" Haze said approaching Sapphire.
"…Not really…" She said, staring at the headstone.
Haze approached Sapphire and put her hand on Sapphire's shoulder reassuringly, she then looked at the headstone, and what was etched on it. Zero the Hedgehog, A Hero that gave his life for what he believed in.
"… I'm going to miss him." Sapphire said after what seemed a couple minutes of silence, "We never really got to know each other… I'm going to miss him."
"Yeah…" Haze sighed and looked down at Sapphire. "C'mon… Let's go home."
Haze helped Sapphire to her feet; they then turned and left the graveyard, heading to their new home.
Meanwhile…
Meru the Tigress walked the path she had always taken to her favorite star gazing hill, her black clothes seemed to camouflage her into the night, making her nearly invisible. It was dark and she always liked stargazing before she went home to sleep. Meru loved how her planet, the planet of Aerien, always had a wonderful view of the stars at night. It was as if they were closer to the stars Meru had always said, or that the sky was magnified so that the stars were more beautiful then normal.
She walked up her favorite hill and fell on her back, the cool grass contrasting the warm summer nights; she also felt the grass between her toes, nice and cool. She watched the stars, twinkle, shine; enjoying every moment of it, until eventually she dozed off. What seemed like a second later she heard a distance sound; she opened her eyes and sat up.
"A comet?" Meru said thinking for a second, "I don't remember hearing that any comets were coming anytime soon…" Up in the sky a gray comet flashed across the sky, suddenly it crashed in the forest near her. "Weird… That comet looked as if there was someone inside it…"
Meru jumped up and ran to where the comet had crashed.
The End.
