2:30 p.m.

Back in Soleanna, Mephiles appears to be in some kind of fortune-telling store. The store is filled with purple drapes, colorful beanbag chairs, and a stand for his purple orb from the dumpster. Heck, even Mephiles is wearing a purple Arabian/fortune-telling type hat.

Right now, the dark hedgehog sits in the beanbag chair and says to the orb, "Alright... What are the hedgehog and princess doing now?"

The orb shows the hedgehog, Sonic, and Elise returning to the city.

"I had such a nice time with you!" Elise thanks Sonic.

"The princess has a crush on the hedgehog?" Mephiles comments, "Gross!"

Mephiles, despite living in the future, still believes that two different species shouldn't date. Just another reason to make this princess cry. Getting back to the main topic, the black hedgehog asks the orb, "Now where is that white imbecile I hired to kill?"

The orb shows Silver, whose arms are tired from completing the dreaded Dusty Desert ball puzzle, and some pink hedgehog who looks a few years younger than Silver. They seem to be returning to the city, still looking for the blue hedgehog.

A knock is heard on the door. "Hello? Is someone in there?" someone, probably male, says from behind the door.

Mephiles' heart (assuming he has one in the first place) jumps as he mutters, "Oh crap."


Meanwhile...

Silver and Amy are still walking around the city, looking for Sonic. Amy has started to get worried and says in disappointment, "I can't believe we haven't found Sonic yet."

"Such a shame," Silver says with sarcasm. "I'll tell you what, Amy: How about you leave this up to me? I'll go find Sonic, and you can go home or to wherever you came from. Does that sound good?"

Amy gives the white hedgehog a weird look. "I don't know," she says, "Finding Sonic is my specialty. I know Sonic when I see him."

Says the same girl who mistook me for him last night, Silver says in his head. And speak of the devil...

Amy eyes a grown human man wearing a Sonic mask, talking to some kid. The pink hedgehog speeds over to the man screaming, "SONIC!"

Silver then yells out, "Amy wait! That's not - oh forget it!" He doesn't need Amy! She was holding him back this whole time! He went through an hour and a half of an impossible ball puzzle for crying out loud!

He levitates over a building and sees Sonic and the princess walking around town.

"Thank you for taking me out on a get-together, kind boy," says the princess.

"My pleasure," says Sonic, "Dating you is so worth it!"

Sonic looks up and sees a sea greenish spear flying towards him. "Look out!" Sonic screams as he grabs Elise and dodges the spear.

"What was that?" Elise asks in fear as Sonic lets go of her.

"I've been looking for you," says a male voice.

Sonic and Elise turn around and see Silver levitating down to the ground. "You're the Iblis Trigger," says the white hedgehog.

"Excuse me?" Sonic asks, "What are you talking about? And what's an Iblis?"

"Don't worry about that!" Silver screams, "Your actions will condemn us all."

Elise bends down to Sonic's level asking quietly, "What is that kid talking about?"

"I don't know," says Sonic. He then asks the psychic hedgehog, "Who are you, anyways?"

"My name is Silver," the hedgehog answers, "and for the future of the world, I will completely destroy you!"

Destroy Sonic! Did Eggman hire this kid to kill him? That fat human went too far this time!

Elise marches up to Silver and yells to him, "Why would you want to kill this kind young man?! He has done nothing horrible! So there's no reason for you to attack him out of nowhere -"

She then screams in fear as Silver holds her with his psychic powers. The hedgehog uses his other hand (one is to hold the princess) to grab a chair and a rope with his really cool powers. He also uses them to put Elise in the chair, and tie her body and feet around with the rope. He even grabs some duct tape and tapes it on the poor princess' mouth.

"Shut your annoying mouth!" he screams. He turns to a shocked Sonic and says, "Now... Ready to battle, Iblis Trigger?"

Sonic grins in anticipation and says, "Of course! I love a new challenge!"

"Then I hope you'll love this!" Silver yells as he picks up Sonic with his powers and throws him against a wall.

Sonic falls down and yells, "Hey, I wasn't ready yet!"

"Oh I'm sorry," Silver sarcastically apologizes, "I didn't know that."

Sonic gets up and runs up to Silver, only for the ladder to levitate Sonic shouting, "Take this!" and throw him towards a building. Sonic hits the wall hard, and ends up falling down. The blue 12-year-old gets up again, only for Silver to fly up to him screaming, "It's no use!" and throw him up in the air!

Damn, Silver is hard to beat! Where did he get these psychic abilities?! Sonic falls back down, landing on his stomach. Sonic coughs, while Elise watches in fear. She just hopes the blue hedgehog is okay.

Silver's arms grow tired and whines, "Aw man! I'm running low on ESP! How am I gonna destroy the Iblis Trigger now?!"

Perfect! Now Sonic actually has a chance to attack Silver! He runs up to the white hedgehog and starts punching and kicking him.

"OW OW OW OW!" Silver cries as he falls down. Sonic then grabs Silver's arm and begins twisting it, but not enough to break it. Silver screams in pain and the two hedgehogs stop fighting.

Sonic, feeling bad that he hurt Silver, walks up to him asking, "Hey. You okay, man?"

Then out of nowhere, Silver throws a psychic spear at Sonic, causing the ladder to hit another wall of a building. Sonic falls down, with his knees hitting the ground. Sonic catches his breath as Silver walks up to him saying, "You're so pathetic."

Sonic tries to look in Silver's golden yellow eyes and says, "Me...pathetic? Y-you're the...one...who cried...like a sore...loser...when I twisted...your arm."

"I don't cry," Silver boasts.

As this is happening, Amy peers behind a building watching the whole situation. So this is why Silver was looking for Sonic: he wanted to kill him! He was using her this whole time!

Sonic starts coughing from being heavily injured from the fight, and Silver laughs asking him, "Is this a joke? How can someone like you cause the destruction of our world?"

Elise is watching this situation unfold as well, but what she doesn't realize is that two giant robotic hands appear behind her, ready to take her away.

"What do you...mean?" Sonic shakily asks.

"It doesn't matter," answers Silver, "but for the sake of the future, the Iblis Trigger must be destroyed!"

As the white idiot attempts to attack Sonic, a scream is heard. The two hedgehogs look up and see that Elise has captured by you guessed it: Dr. Eggman in his Egg Mobile.

"That was way too easy!" Eggman brags as he hovers away, "Thanks, Sonic!"

Damn it, Eggman! "Elise!" Sonic cries as he runs towards the vehicle, only for Silver to attack Sonic yet again.

"Don't you dare turn your back on me!" Silver yells, "It's time I finally put an end to this!"

Silver is interrupted, again, as another scream is heard. "Silver, what are you doing?!" a voice screams. Turns out that voice belongs to Amy, who runs up and blocks Sonic to prevent Silver from attacking him.

"Amy?!" a shocked Silver yells, "Get out of my way, Amy! This is my mission!"

"Not anymore!" Amy shouts at the white hedgehog. She turns to Sonic and whispers to him, "You can go if you want."

Sonic struggles to get up, and when he finally does, he says, "Thanks Amy. I appreciate it." He then runs away to find the princess, hoping he'll find her soon.

Silver is shocked at what Amy did. "What was that for?!" he screams to her.

"I was protecting my boyfriend!" Amy screams back, "You didn't want to meet Sonic! You just wanted to kill him! Why?!"

"Because he's responsible for destroying my world!" Silver answers angrily.

"YOUR WORLD?" Amy loudly questions, "What planet do you live on?!"

"Mobius: 200 years in the future!" Silver answers.

Amy then yells out, "But why would Sonic want to destroy 'your' world?!"

"I don't know!" screams Silver, "But the point is...it's that one day he will cause the destruction of my world! So I must -"

"NO!" Amy interrupts, "I've known Sonic for seven years now! And I know that he would never do anything like that! And even if he did... I think I would rather have that happen than you try to kill him."

Amy runs away, causing Silver to hang his head down in confusion. What did he get himself into?


And that was Chapter 7! This chapter is possibly one of the best chapters I've ever written for any of my stories! There were a lot of funny moments in this! Next chapter, Blaze finds Silver and gives him 'advice', while Sonic and Tails meet up with Knuckles.

Tell me what you think of this story/chapter and I'll see you in Chapter 8!
