After the discovery of the diary, it seemed to lighten the mood a bit. The next day they all went looking for Sonic. Of course they found no sign of the hedgehog, but Knuckles did find a dark blue quill. It was a bit hard to pick it up ,courtesy of his mitt-like gloves which didn't have fingers. The strangest thing happened while Tails was studying it. It changed to a lighter shade of blue. Tails instantly ran up the stairs from his lab to the living room. Only to find no one there. So he ran up the stairs and knocked on Shadow's and Knuckle's ( Aka, the guest room) rooms. "What's up Tails?" Knuckles asked. "No time to explain... just follow me to my lab" replied the panting kitsune. He then ran up to the third floor and knocked on Rouge's door. "Tails? What's wrong?" instead of replying to the bat he ran to the living room one floor down. He then ran back down to his lab with the others following behind him.
When the confused hedgehog, echidna, and bat entered the lab the orange fox was staring excitedly at the tiny blue object on one of the many cluttered metal tables. When they got closer they recognized it to be the quill of their friend. "Look!" Tails seemed to be waiting excitedly which kind of concerned the group. At first nothing happened. But the the quill began to change. It got lighter and lighter, till it was almost the familiar sapphire blue. "Tails?! What's happening? Why is it changing color?!" a very worried Rouge asked. "I think that Sonic is turning back to himself! I mean, the color is now almost cobalt blue" the fox replied, getting more and more excited with each word. "Well, if we're lucky we can maybe find Faker and help him turn back " The black hedgehog said with a smirk before getting his ear flicked by Rouge. "You just wanna kick his ass!" "Yeah, that too" "SHADOW!" "What?" "CAN WE JUST GO NOW?" A very angry Knuckles yelled, making everyone nod and head for the door. Tails fired up the X-tornado and they went to search for their friend.
Sonic's POV
Ugh! Chaos dammit Dark! Leave me alone! Heh, why? You might have gotten back in control but now you are weak. The slightest thing the slightest hint of anger can release me again! I continued the internal struggle inside my mind. I had lost my grip on him and he almost killed Amy! I hope she's okay... even though I'm probably going to get a hammer to the head... You should have let me deal with her before! In fact I should have dealt with all of them! Now you have... ugh... feelings... Don't you see? All of your friends manipulated your mind! You used to be the hedgehog with no emotion! Murdering everyone whoever got in your way! What about your pare- SHUT UP! I'M NOTHING LIKE THEM! Oh, but you were. I mentally growled at my darker part. I was nothing like them. Even the mention about them left a bitter taste in my mouth. Oh, how I hated them so... Another wave of pain coursed through my head, making me fall onto my knees and clutch my head. No...I'm..not..letting you...take...control! Oh, but you will...you will... I listened as his voice faded. All of a sudden it felt like a 400 pound weight was lifted from my head. My quills and fur were now their normal colors. I stood up and looked around, I saw nobody around. I smiled and ran back to the mansion, anxiously waiting to see the others reactions.
When I got there, I realized just how exhausted I was. It was just like before. Except not as bad. You see, dark never got tired, or hungry. He never felt the need for anything except to kill. After his 9 year killing spree was over, and I was left as my normal self, I passed out for like 4 weeks! Luckily though, this time wasn't nearly as bad. I was surprised to find no one in the house. So, I went up to my room, and collapsed with exhaustion on my bed. I then drifted into a uneasy sleep...
Nobody's POV
Sonic's friends returned to the mansion hours later. Shadow was soaked as well as Knuckles. Earlier when the Tornado was above a lake, Shadow's hover shoes got wet, temporarily disabling them. So he fell in the water and Knuckles started laughing really hard. He didn't watch where he was on the plane's wing, and fell off. Both the echinda and hedgehog were furious to say the least. On the other hand, Tails managed to contact Silver and Blaze, and they were on their way.
The first thing they did was check on Amy, who had gotten much better over time. Though she was still in a coma, and they didn't imagine her coming out of it anytime soon. They were all about to just go to bed, but Rouge's very sensitive hearing picked up a faint sound of snoring. She slowly followed the sound, which lead out the room. Knuckles, being the first to realize that the thief was gone, started to search for her. He found her in the hallway outside Sonic's room. "What are you-" "Shhhhhhhh! I'm trying to listen!" The irritated bat replied. "To what? I don't hear anything" "Well you don't even have ears!" Knuckles only gave a huff of defeat as the others walked towards them. Shadow slowly opened the door, and did nothing but stare in shock at who was there.
A familiar cobalt blue hedgehog was sleeping peacefully near the edge of his bed. He almost looked...cute. Of course all that went to hell when Rouge screamed very loudly when she saw him. Instantly the blue hedgehog shot up at least 2 feet in the air. Since he was near the edge of the bed, he fell on the ground along with his dark blue comforter with a thud. A sleepy and muffled "ow" came from the dark blue pile. The a white glove appeared from underneath it and pulled of the blankets. Which revealed an angry looking hedgie. "S-sonic?" a slightly frightened kistsune asked. "Hello Tails.." The hedgehog muttered. The others were taken back by this, Sonic didn't get angry just like that, Heck, even when Eggman captured them, he was still smiling. To see him like this was just...wrong. "When did you get back?" an angry black hedgehog snapped. "Hey! Don't get mad at me!" Sonic growled as he got up from the mess of blankets. "Well,I'm still mad at you for writing about me like that! I could take you down easily! Even with your little friend Dark.." At that moment emerald eyes shot to where the diary was, or was supposed to be. Instead he saw the board lifted and nothing underneath. Now the hedgehog was seething with rage as emerald eyes turned darker, quills raised, and cobalt became midnight blue. "YOU LOOKED THROUGH MY DIARY!" By this time the group knew that Sonic wasn't completely back to normal. They were all going to calm him down... well, all except Shadow who just yelled back at the angered hog. "YES WE DID YOU IDIOT! I READ YOUR ENTRY ABOUT ME! AND I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT I'M NOT A FREAKING RIPOFF OF YOU! I COULD BEAT YOU ANYWHERE! ANY TIME!"" "WOULD YOU LIKE TO TEST THAT THEORY? YOU SHOULDN'T PICK FIGHTS WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE WAY ABOVE YOUR LEVEL!" "SAYS THE PERSON WHO HAS SPENT HALF THEIR LIFE KILLING INNOCENTS!" At that the hedgehog's eyes widened. Midnight turned back to cobalt, quills lowed, and only left him staring wide-eyed with shock at the other hedgehog. "That wasn't me..." he muttered, his voice dripping with sorrow and pain. "No. It was. It was all you." Shadow replied coldly."You're right. It was all me..." Sonic said, in a whisper before turning and jumping out the window.
