Here's the other chapter. Please Review. I do not own anything except the plot and OC characters.
Chapter 3: Objects of Power
"We better start looking." said the hedgehog.
"Right." everyone else agreed.
Starlight and Knuckles went into the X Tornado while Amy, the girl rabbit, and the chao went into their own ship. When they were ready, they split up into four groups. Sonic ran to the north. The plant girl and echidna went east as the girl hedgehog went south. Cream and Cheese left to the west leaving the two-tailed fox and Chris behind. The hedgehog looked from side to side as he ran through the desert.
"Help us. Please help us."
Sonic stopped at the sound of the pleading voices sending dust everywhere as he skipped a few feet. He looked all around him to find the source. All he saw was sand and cactus.
"Who are you? Where are you?" asked the hedgehog still looking.
"We are the people of the desert. We lived in peace when they came," said many voices at once.
"What do you mean?" questioned Sonic.
"The Metarex came and destroyed everything. They even took our hearts to use in their terrible plans." said more voices.
"Your hearts? How do they use your hearts in their plans?" inquired the hedgehog.
"If one can control the three, they can control the universe." said the voices.
"The three? I don't understand." asked Sonic.
The voices didn't speak again leaving only silence. He waited for them to speak, but only heard a faint child's voice.
"Hurry…Find our legacy..." said the kid before being cut off by something else.
The hedgehog walked backward to find the voice when he fell into a pool of water. He spat out the water and looked up to see an oasis. There were various plants growing and animals living peacefully as if nothing had transpired on the planet. Sonic continued through the paradise when he saw a light coming pass through the trees ahead. He pushed them aside to see a city. A city constructed of glass and stone. Some parts were shattered or crushed by an attack. The hedgehog looked for survivors, but found no one there. As he walked into one of the destroyed buildings, a picture caught his eyes. He took a closer look and was surprised at what was depicted on it. Part of it was broken off, but it was still visible. It showed two beings on opposite sides holding something each. The one on the right was a girl holding a sphere. The one on the left was a boy holding up crystals. They look like they were doing something, but with part of the picture broken he couldn't tell. There was writing along with the picture, but couldn't read it which led him to contact Tails.
"Tails." spoke Sonic.
"What is it Sonic?" questioned Tails.
"I found this destroyed city tha has been abandoned. The only thing I could find were words , but I can't figure them out." answered the hedgehog.
"Scan it and send it to me." said the two-tailed fox.
"Okay." spoke Sonic as he scanned the text and picture.
He finished scanning it and sent it to the Blue Typhoon. Tails received it and began decoding it when the boy came form the engine room.
"What's that?" inquired Chris.
"It's something that Sonic found in a ruins of a city. I just finished decoding it, but it doesn't make sense." responded the two-tailed fox.
"Let me see." spoke the boy as he walked up to the table.
"Pray to the Guardians. We have been saved by them. To keep the balance they created the three. The three will ensure the balance between good and evil. If the scale were to tip, it will be the end of the universe. The three represent the three powers. One is the power of chaos. The other is the power of existence. And finally the one with the power of will. If one can control the three, they can control the universe." read Chris.
"What about the picture?" asked the hedgehog.
"We're getting to it." replied Tails.
The picture appeared on the screen as the two-tailed fox and boy stared at it. No one had a clue what it meant.
"One is the power of chaos. The other is the power of existence. And finally the one with the power of will. What does it all mean?" thought Chris as he placed his hand over his mouth.
He continued to stare at the picture when an idea snapped into his mind.
"Hey. Isn't the person on the left holding the chaos emeralds?" questioned the boy pointing at the said person.
"It does look like that." said Tails as he enlarged that part of the picture.
"What made you think that?" inquired Sonic.
"Remember the text said something about one is the power of chaos. It made me think of the chaos emeralds." answered Chris.
"So the other is the power of existence and the one with the power of will are talking about objects of power." spoke the hedgehog.
"Doesn't the person on the right look like they are holding the planet egg?" asked the two-tailed fox.
"It could be. The power of existence as the power of the planet egg, but what about the last one." said the boy.
"That part of the picture was destroyed." spoke Sonic.
"It's too bad. We could have figured out the last one." said Tails.
"One thing is bothering me though. It says the Guardians made them, but we only see two. Also, the text makes it sound like the Guardians protected the universe. We need to know more." spoke Chris.
"I'll look." said the hedgehog as he turned off his communication device.
