Chapter Twelve: Enough is Enough

Meanwhile, back on Angel Island, Amy, Cream, Tikal and Rouge were sitting next to the Master Emerald at the altar. They were so very curious about what is going on with the guys.

"The wait is killing me!" Rouge complained.

"We've been here for two and a half hours, and we've still heard nothing back from them." Cream added.

"This is very worrying. Tikal, is there a way that we can see what is going on with the guys?" Amy asked.

"There is, yes. I'll go over to the Master Emerald now, and ask them to let us see where they are." Tikal explained.

"Hopefully nothing bad has happened to them." Cream hoped.

With that, Tikal walked towards the Master Emerald, and raised her hands in the air.

"Master Emerald, please let us see the whereabouts of Miles Prower, Knuckles the Echidna, and Shadow the Hedgehog." Tikal asked.

After a short while, the Master Emerald then was glowing, and then it revealed the location that Tails, Knuckles and Shadow were heading towards. The four girl gasped after seeing what was going on.

They saw Sonic and Scourge attacking, and beating the four senseless. Scourge was in his purple super form, while Sonic was in his Super Dark form.

"Oh my goodness!" Tikal whimpered.

"What is Sonic doing?!" Amy shrieked.

"He can't be teaming with Scourge, he can't be!" Cream whimpered.

"And the guys are in danger!" Rouge stated.

Amy however, as scared as she was, she looked closer at Sonic and noticed something. Sonic even though he was attacking his friends, the look on his face didn't seem evil. He looked very hesitated.

"Girls, look at Sonic! He doesn't look evil at all. It's almost like he's trying not to hurt them, but he can't help himself." Amy mentioned.

"What, like mind control?" Cream thought.

"Seems like it, now you mention it. It's like he remembers his friends, but the darkness has taken over his mind." Tikal added.

"But this is still dangerous. He could kill them!" Rouge stated with worry.

Amy turned from a scared look, to a serious determination on her face.

"No! This darkness may have taken over Sonic's body, but I know it hasn't taken over his soul, or his heart! And I'm going to stop this!" Amy stated.

After that, she ran from the altar to attempt to make her way to the battlefield.

"Amy, no!" Cream pleaded.

"Don't be stupid, Amy! You'll get yourself killed!" Rouge snarled.

"Please, Amy! It's too dangerous!" Tikal told her.

"I know it's fucking dangerous! But what other choice do we have, huh?! Sonic is still in there, and I'm not just going to sit here, and allow that spell to take over him, and change him into something he's not! If you girls don't want to help me, that's fine! But I'm doing this, with or without your help!" Amy snarled at them.

"But, Amy..." Cream sobbed.

"Look, you always told me how close we are as friends, how us girls should stick together. How we have girl power. So why not use that girl power, and make ourselves useful for this fight?! Do you want them two to destroy the world, and our men?! And you, Tikal, you want your baby to be raised not knowing who their father is?" Amy stated.

Tikal then sheds sad tears in her eyes. She knew that every word that Amy was saying was true.

"No, I don't!" Tikal cried.

"Well, what are we waiting for?! We better go help them, now!" Rouge yelled.

"Sounds like a crazy idea, but I'm gonna take that chance!" Cream added.

"Great! And Tikal, when we get there, don't get in the way of things. We don't want you losing the baby from something catastrophic." Amy explained. Tikal nodded in agreement.

"I'll use my powers to fly us all towards there. Let's go now! No time to lose!" Tikal exclaimed.

After that, the four formed in a circle, Tikal raised both arms, and then her powers levitated everyone off the ground. They flew out of the balcony, and flew their way towards the city.

(Amy singing)

You and I walked this broken line

I have known it all this time

But I didn't think I'd live to see this break

It is so dark, and it's very quiet

I just can't trust my own faith now

Now it's coming towards you, like this is a huge mistake

.

I hold my breath, won't lose him again

Something's made his eyes grow cold

.

Come on, come on, don't leave him like this

I think I have him figured out

Something's gone terribly wrong, he's all I've wanted

Come on, come on, don't leave him like this

I think I have him figured out

Can't breathe whenever he's gone

Won't turn back, now I'm haunted

.

(Cream singing)

Stood here while watching you run away

From all these things we've had

(Tikal singing)

But I'll still support everything I have for you

We will try and take away your pain

(Rouge singing)

And we might just make you smile

But this whole time, I hope he won't harm you instead

.

Oh, oh, I'll hold my breath,

Won't see this again

Something's kept me holding onto something

.

(Amy, Cream, Tikal and Rouge singing)

Come on, come on, don't leave him like this

I think I have him figured out

Something's gone terribly wrong, you're all I wanted

Come on, come on don't leave me like this

I thought I had you figured out

Can't breathe whenever you're gone

Can't turn back, now I'm haunted

.

(Amy singing, Cream, Tikal and Rouge improvising)

I know, I know, I just know

(I know x7)

He's not gone, he can't be gone

No

.

(Amy singing)

Come on, come on, don't leave him like this

I think I have him figured out

Something is terribly wrong, he won't finish what he's started

(Amy, Cream, Tikal and Rouge singing)

Come on, come on, don't leave him like this

I think I have him figured out

Can't breathe whenever he's gone

Won't go back, I'm haunted

.

(Amy singing)

Oh, oh, oh, oh,

Oh oh, oh oh oh

You and I walked this broken line

I have known it all this time

But I didn't think I'd live to see this break

Didn't think I'll see it

.

After ten minutes of travelling, the girls made it to the city, and looked on without being noticed. Tails and Knuckles were taking on Scourge, and Shadow was taking on Sonic. Shadow tackles Sonic to the ground.

"Sonic, if there's a conscience left in that head of yours, listen to me, and listen good! You're not our enemy, this is not who you are! It's me, Sonic! Shadow, the Ultimate Lifeform! Fight the darkness, Sonic! I know you're in there! Don't let it take over you!" Shadow tried explaining.

Sonic's head started shaking in hesitation. He tried so hard to fight the darkness, but his head started throbbing. Sonic looked up at Shadow.

"Shadow?" Sonic responded, in his actual speaking voice.

Everyone stopped fighting, and looked on towards Sonic and Shadow.

"No way!" Knuckles exclaimed.

"Sonic remembers him!" Tails also exclaimed.

"No, impossible!" Scourge yelled.

"Yes Sonic, it's me!" Shadow told him.

"Shadow, please! Kill me!" Sonic pleaded

Everyone, including the girls gasped in surprise.
