Deception 2: The Rise of Dark Sonic

by The Chuckinator

A week has passed since Shadow, Chris and Amy went to Dr. Eggman's base looking for a cure for Sonic, who had turned evil after Eggman did a little experiment on him. But the cure didn't work, and Sonic is once again evil. Now, Sonic is planning something that could bring about the end of planet Earth.

5. Briefing

Chapter 5: Briefing

Amy, Blaze, Chris and Shadow raced to GUN headquarters. Shadow had just got off the phone with Rouge, who told him about some mission she was going on. Once they reached GUN, they walked inside and saw the commander. Shadow walked up to him.

"Commander," he said.

The commander looked at Shadow and a smile appeared on his face. "Well, if it isn't Shadow the Hedgehog. What can I do for you?"

"Rouge told me that you has sent her on a mission. I would like to know why and where."

The commander frowned. "Does this have anything to do with Sonic?"

"It does."

The GUN commander nodded, and then pulled out a file, handing it to Shadow. The hedgehog opened it and looked at the report. His eyes widened as he read, skimming over the pages as fast as he could. When he was done, he handed the file back to the commander.

"As you can see from the report, this is very disturbing," the commander said. "Sonic is at Kingdom Valley, and according to what we have on him, he is planning something big. We won't know what yet; that's why we sent Rouge to find out."

"But what could possibly be at Kingdom Valley?" Chris asked. "It's just an old castle; there isn't much to look at."

The commander nodded. "Right you are. But recently, we found out something interesting. Have you ever heard of the Scepter of Darkness?"

Chris, Amy and Blaze shook their heads. Shadow, however, tensed up as he heard the name. The commander looked at him curiously.

"What is it, Shadow?"

"I have heard the name, and seen the Scepter with my own eyes. It was years ago when Sonic, Silver and I foiled a plot of Dr. Eggman's in Soleanna. The doctor captured Princess Elise in order to release some monster named Iblis. There was also this hedgehog I encountered when escorting Rouge to Kingdom Valley; his name is Mephiles. He was sealed inside the Scepter until the doctor ambushed us, causing Rouge to drop the Scepter, causing it to break. Mephiles was released and fused with Ibis, forming a monster name Solaris. Sonic, Silver and I teamed up and defeated Solaris. I am not sure what happened to Mephiles after that; I think he was sealed up in the Scepter again."

Amy frowned. "So what does your story have anything to do with what Sonic is going to do now?"

Shadow turned to face her. "The Scepter of Darkness must be in Kingdom Valley. Sonic is going to release Mephiles!"
