After throwing everything I own, witch wasn't much, into my backpack I opened my warp ring and paused before walking through. I will be back to see Felidae again. She is a good friend.

After taking a breath I walked through the warp ring and onto my old bed. After throwing my pack down, I flicked the light on. First thing that caught my eyes was the wall. There was a crack in it and it was the same place Felidae punched Finitevus into.

I hopped off my bed and walked over to the wall. After looking over the crack in the old stone walls, I looked down on the floor and saw a black cloth. His cape? I shrugged and turned to the door. As I walked out of the room, I ignored the scarlet drops on the floor and continued.

I stood at the top of the staircase looking down at the open lab door. I took a deep breath and numbly walked down the steps. Each step brought me closer to something that I could not see in my future. Would he be angry? Surprise, don't care?...happy?

I reached the bottom step and peered out of the shadows and saw Finitevus looking through some boxes. He was muttering to himself and then he pulled out a small white case with a red cross on the front. It's a first-aid kit. So Felidae did hurt him...

I sifted my foot a bit and it bumped a small stone into the wall and Finitevus stopped moving. He had heard the noise. He looked over his shoulder and I slid into the darkest corner next to the staircase. Finitevus looked around the room and then he backed up from the first-aid kit holding his arm. Blood dripped down and I felt bad. Yes, he did deserve it but two wrongs don't make a right. I might as well get it over with.

Slowly I walked out of the shadows and Finitevus turned around. His eyes widen in surprise but just for a second.

"Why are you here?" He asked in a cold tone. Probably thought Felidae was going to leap out and attack him again.

I shrugged and then said "I came home." Before I let him say anything I added "Don't try to hypnotize me again or I will punch you instead of my friend." Finitevus narrowed his eyes but said nothing. More awkwardness…I glanced down at his arm and he turned and walked back to the first aid-kit. I slowly followed him and watched what he did. Other than him muttering to himself about Felidae punching him and clawing him at the same time, he just seemed too distracted to even wrap up his arm. After watching him having some trouble because it seemed that Felidae did paralyze his arm for a few hours, I walked up and said "Let me help."

Finitevus sighed and then stepped aside for me to get what I need. After I grabbed some stuff, I pulled up a chair for Finitevus and he sat down. As I wrapped up his arm in some white bandages, I said "Sorry, for my friend hurting you." He didn't say anything and I cut the tape and finished.

"There you go! Oh…Felidae said that you will be able to use your arm again in a few hours." He glared at me and then stood up. He walked over to his desk and I looked around and then asked "Can I say hi too Will-NA?" Finitevus stopped walking and then said "You can't."

"Why?" I asked kind of angry. I Swear if this is just to make me mad and-

"She's dead."

…"W-When?" I asked quietly and he said "This morning." There was no sadness in his voice and I looked down at the floor and he added "I will show you her grave tomorrow if you want to say goodbye." I nodded and then turned to leave. Some welcome back this has been…

Next Morning

I opened my eyes to sunlight. Where is Felidae? I wondered as I sat up and then last night came rushing back. I shook my head and my stomach growled. I pulled the blanket off of me and slipped my shoes on. After a few stretches I walked to my door and pulled it open.

I was suddenly knocked to the floor. Something fell on top of me.

"Celty?" Lightning jumped off of me and I flipped up and glared at him. "I-I was leaning on your door and I swear I didn't know you were here!" he said scared I was going to Aura Blast him. "Uh huh…Whatever." I said and walked past him and he asked "What are you doing back here?"

"Stuff happened last night and I came back…yes Finitevus knows." I added before he could ask. As we walked down the halls to get breakfast, Lightning asked "Did you do that to Finitevus arm?" I looked at him and said "I fixed it up but am I the one who attacked him? No." Lightning didn't say anything else and as we walked down the stairs I heard Flying say "hee hee! Lynxy-shinxy is back!" I sweat dropped and followed Lightning down the rest of the steps and as soon as I reached the bottom step, Lightning turned and pushed me out of the way of a green spiked ball.

"Damit Lightning! Why did you push that traitor out of the way?" Scourge yelled and spun around for another go.

"Hi Green Bean. You can thank Finitevus for me being right here." I said and Scourge skidded to a halt a few feet away from me and grabbed my hand and zoomed upstairs with me being dragged behind him. He was pissed. And he had dragged me all the way to Finitevus lab.

"What is she doing here?" He yelled shoving me forward. I wanted to punch him but didn't. Finitevus was walking to his desk holding papers and he said "I invited her back here."

Scourge growled and rushed past me and slammed his hands on the desk and said "But she left us and joined the Chaotix!" I sighed and Finitevus said "Go away Scourge. She never betrayed us." Scourge growled and then said "But why her? Why not get someone else to come here and fill her spot?"

"Because I decided it Scourge. And you can either live with it, or leave." Finitevus said and walked away from his desk and Scourge. I looked over at Scourge who looked really pissed and he started to run in place and bent his head down. I gasped as I realized he was going to attack Finitevus.

Scourge did a homing attack on Finitevus who was caught off guard. Just before he made contact with the albino echidna, I swung my Aura staff like a baseball bat and Scourge was sent flying into the wall leaving a print as he fell to the ground. My staff disappeared and I rubbed my arm. That took a lot of strength to do that.

Scourge got up from the floor and glared at me. Before I could make another staff, Scourge shot at me. I flinched and panicked. Now this time someone grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the way from Scourge who again collided with wall. I blinked a few times and then turned to the only other person in the room. "Um…Thank you Finitevus."

He looked down but didn't say anything. Just walked back to his desk and I walked over to Scourge and said "Sorry I hit you Scourge." He leaped off the floor and glared at me. He opened his mouth to say something but never got to because a noise came from a huge computer in the back of the room. Finitevus quickly walked over there and Scourge and I joined him. The screen turned on and then a battle ship showed…the Dark Egg Legion battle ship. "Get rid of them." Finitevus said and Scourge smirked and raced upstairs to get the Destructix.

I turned to follow and as I reached the steps I heard Finitevus call "Celty." I looked around the door frame and he had his back facing me and was looking at the computer.

"Be careful."
