Me: Sorry for the long wait! *puppy dog eyes* Stupid tests.. Anyway, I've been trying to catch up with everything..

Shadow: And you've been falling behind on this..

Me: Shut up! I work hard on these you know! So yeah, at the moment updates should occur every 1 or 2 weeks.. depending on how much work I get at school.. -_-

Rouge: And you still have a month left of school..

Me: Shut up...

Amy: Umm...she doesn't own us..

Wave: Please review and enjoy...

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

"Awwww...well don't you two make the perfect couple" Rouge teased, making Dark Sonic blush slightly before he rolled his eyes.

"Yes, pair two psychotic beings together...nothing could possibly go wrong with that..."

"You claim that you're insane but yet you seem to be one of the sanest of the group. Care to explain that?" Wave questioned, clearly this hedgehog was way more sane than his past companion.

"I know I may seem less insane compared to Rosy, but it's actually the opposite of that. You see, I was cursed with the power to see the dead. I think that's part of the reason that I have a dark form. Unfortunately, I also had to listen to the dead as well.."

"How can the dead even talk?" Storm asked, obviously dead bodies don't move, let alone speak.

"I meant the spirits you idiot! The spirits of those who have passed! You saw those black shadow things that were chasing me before? Yeah, those are spirits of the dead. I'm technically just a spirit of the past so I have my own brain and will. Those spirits were deceased and just kill or scare those they can. Which would be only me and Rosy since no one else that I know of can feel the spirits. I've been haunted all of my life. At first the spirits would just do little things, like mess with what little of the possessions I had. At that point I couldn't see them, they were just a strange invisible force that I never really paid attention to. But then the haunting got worse. Soon they went as far as levitate knifes and sharp shards of glass and hurl them at me. After my mother left they finally revealed themselves. They then began to threaten me. I ran away from the house but they chased me. "

"Oh, so you meant that that made you look insane because it seemed like you were scared of something that no one could see?" Knuckles asked, trying to understand the whole scenario. Dark Sonic sighed and shook his head, a bit annoyed that they didn't understand.

"No...that's not why. You know what? Just watch the stupid screen and hopefully you will understand"

Sonic was curled up in a corner in the back of an alley. It was daytime, but he was hidden in the shadows. His hands covered his ears and he was shaking. He whimpered desperate pleas for something to shut up. He screamed and covered his eyes with his arms.

"Okay, so now it looks like you've gone insane...but why?"

"Oh right...I forgot to switch to first-person..." Dark Sonic chuckled nervously. There was a flash and now they saw differently.

I covered my eyes, trying to forget the gruesome scene that was before me. They buildings around me where innocent people and their families lived in, were slowly burning away, all of their possessions and loved ones turning to ash. Their loud screams and desperate cries were echoing around me, like a melody of pain and death. There was a sticky, crimson liquid splattered on the ground before me, and it soaked my navy quills. It was blood, blood of all the innocents. It dripped off my quills in a slow pattern that repeated over and over. Drip...drip...drip. I shivered, but not from the image and feeling that I would not soon forget, but from the strange coldness around me. Yes, everything was burning around me, but I was freezing.

I cringed as the screams got louder, and louder. I covered my ears with my blood-soaked claws and squeezed my eyes tighter, wishing that I was blind so that I would never have to go through this. Hmmm...maybe I could make myself blind? And deaf! Yes, blind and deaf, that way I will never have to suffer from all of this...this pain! (A/N I will continue from this point next chapter to explain Sonic's full hallucination, but you'll just have to wait *troll face*)

"WHAT?!" Dark sonic turned to find himself face-to-face with the pale, horrified faces of his companions.

"Okay...okay.. I know it may seem like Sonic's become a suicidal, and let's face it, we all kind of knew he was a bit suicidal to begin with, I mean he's constantly at near-death experiences, and when he's close to death and pulls through, might seem a bit disappointed-" He smirked as the others nodded slightly, their color regaining.

"- and if you had suffered like he had back then, heck, he still suffers a bit NOW... I don't even think you guys would be alive. Think of it this way, at this point, these hallucinations and visions have been happening to him for a while now. And since he's at such a young age, he doesn't even know what's real anymore. I think that that's enough to drive anyone insane, but he is strong. But he's also desperate, all he wants is things to make sense for once in his life, but they won't" He watched everyone nod, but his smile faded when his eyes landed on Jet. The hawk looked a bit shocked to say the least.

"What?" He squinted his eyes into a glare as the hawk's face returned to normal.

"Dude...that was deep" Sonic just rolled his eyes and looked at the ground solemnly.

"Well, I'm glad my knowledge of all that he-I WAS going through can impresses you. I just simply wish to forget about it...but I can't. I can't get away from it by death, because I won't die until he dies. And I do not wish death upon him though. These are things of the past, meant to be remembered. No one can change that" The group stared sympathetically at the younger spirit. He just gave a little wave, gesturing for them to continue on watching. Though the scene once again changed.

"I remember when I asked Rosy how she went insane. This is that memory"

They saw Sonic walking down an abandoned street with Rosy. Rosy was speaking surprisingly English, though to the others sounded like gibberish, delightfully and Sonic nodded his head, acting as if he understood it. Then a thought struck him.

"Hey Rosy?"

"Yes Dark?"

"Umm..this might sound a little strange but...h-how did you become insane?"

"Oh!" She broke out into a fit of giggles. Sonic was unfazed and waited for her answers.

"Well, when I was little girl, I had two other sisters. One day, daddy came home, his hands were covered in this red liquid that smelt sour-" She scrunched her face up showing her disgust for the liquid before continuing, laughter hinting in her voice.

"-Mommy never came home that night, daddy said that she would never come home" She laughed "Silly daddy.."

"What?! So your father killed your mother?!" She tried to contain more giggles but failed.

"Yep! My older sister...umm...I think her name was...Lilly? Her name should have been Violet-" She rolled her eyes, suddenly angry with her parents for not knowing this.

" When she found out..she was mad! She started screaming at daddy and then daddy got made. He pulled out his gun, it was very shiny! He pointed it at Lilly's head and I heard a loud bang. Lilly fell tot he floor and started leaking that icky red stuff. I started to talk to her, but she was rude and ignored me. Then these other men came into the house and we herd loud sirens and saw red and blue lights. Me and my other sister were scared, we ran out the house and I ran away from her because she was being bossy and telling me what to do. Then the mean black monsters showed up and hurt me. But then I met you! And now we're be-st fri-ends!" She sang the last part and leaned towards Sonic who gave a fake grin.

"So...who was your other sister?" Rosy put her thumb and index finger to her chin and thought for a while before shrugging.

"Hmm...I don't know. All I know is that she had a big hammer, like me that was red and yellow! And her quills were like this!" She flexed her quills so that they rested at the side of her head, like those of an echindna.

"Hmm...red and yellow hammer...I wonder who her sister was..." Knuckles thought hard.

"Me" A quiet voice spoke. Everyone whirred around and gasped at the figure before them.

To Be Continued...

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

Me: red and yellow hammer, I wonder who it's going to be!

Knuckles: You made it too obvious!

Me: So?

Shadow: We can't use that as a question now!

Silver; I have one!

Me: What is it?

Silver: Well, the title of this story is really lame... we should have another contest thing for the name of the story this time.

Me: Okay! Comment in the reviews what you think would be an appropriate title for this story. I'll wait until I have the next chapter ready ( about 1 week, maybe less ) to announce the winner! Winner gets a free picture of their Sonic charater!
