Chapter 2

Nightly Fight

Sonics' eyes opened up wide a few hours after the attack. Sonic tried to stand up, but he fell back down.

"What's going on? Why can't I..." Sonic cut himself as he put his hand on his head.

As he ran his fingertips through his fur he found out it wasn't smooth anymore. It was long and shaggy. Sonic stopped running his fingers though his fur and felt his ears. They weren't the usual small hedgehog ears he had always had. They were now long and pointed like a wolfs'. Sonic took his hand away from his head, when he felt the pain in the back of his neck return. Sonic sat up and put his hand on the bite mark. He felt some sort of liquid coming out from the fang marks. Sonic removed his hand and held it in front of his face. As Sonic looked at his hand it shocked him to see that his hand was covered in blood. His blood. But that wasn't all that freaked Sonic out. Sonics' gloves were not on his hands anymore. Instead he saw long sharp claws pointing out of the top of his fingernails. Sonic looked around the small clearing he was sitting in the middle of. Sonic climbed onto his feet and looked in every other direction, he couldn't have seen sitting down. Sonic soon after stopped looking around and looked down at his feet to see if he had been sitting on them. But his gloves weren't intact; they were shredded in little pieces on the ground. Sonic was about to inspect any other changes he had gotten, but heard a noise coming from the other side of the Great Forest. Sonic didn't understand how he could hear that far, but he ran in that direction anyway.

Once he reached the edge of the Great Forest he was tired. Sonic put his hand on one of the tree trunks beside him.

"Why am I suddenly so tired?" Sonic asked himself.

His voice sounded a lot deeper and gruffer, like Shadows'. Sonic looked around the area he was about to enter and noticed something in the middle. A monkey with a staff was fighting a bunch of dark monsters. The monsters walked on two legs, sometimes moved onto four and had sharp claws and fangs. They were a dark purplish colour with light blue markings on them. Once Sonic saw the monkey, his eyes widened.

"That's Monkey Khan" Sonic exclaimed. "What's he doing here?"

All the monsters ganged up on Monkey Khan as they surrounded him.

"Time for me to join the party" Sonic cried.

Sonic ran on all fours towards the group of monsters and jumped over them to get into the middle, where Monkey Khan was. The monsters backed away a bit from Sonic, then jumped at him. One lunged at Sonic with its' fangs bared, ready to rip Sonic apart. Sonic grabbed the monster with one hand and tightened his grip on it. Not soon later did the monster burst into purple dark energy. Sonics' eyes widened at this.

"It bursts into energy, when its' dead" Sonics' expression changed to a smile.

Sonic turned to the rest of the monsters. They were all baring their fangs and showing their razor sharp claws at Sonic.

"Bring it on!" Sonic shouted, "I've got all night!"

Monkey Khan turned to look at who was helping him and saw something he never thought he'd have to see. Another two monsters jumped at Sonic. Sonic caught them with each hand with ease. He was about to give them a death squeeze, when two more jumped on his back and pushed him down. Sonic fell onto the ground, letting go of the monsters he was holding in the process. The two monsters he had been holding jumped onto his back and joined in with their friends. Sonic screamed in pain as they were sucking his blood like leeches. But more painful. Five more jumped on Sonic and started doing the same thing.

A few minutes later, Sonic was no where in sight, all that was seen was a pile of monsters. Sonic was starting to get really angry at the monsters. Monkey Khan couldn't help his ally, because he was too busy stopping the other monsters. He stopped, when he heard growling coming from the pile of monsters. That growling noise slowly turned into a roar of anger as Sonic used up a great amount of power to throw all of the monsters off him. Sonic started baring his fangs at the monsters as they circled him. One ran up to Sonic and bit him on the leg. Sonic looked down at the monster, a look of rage on his face as he took it off his leg. Sonic ignored the pain he had given himself as the monster had ripped a chunk of fur off his leg. Sonic brought the monster up to face as he looked at its' eyes. Sonics' emerald eyes showed anger and hatred in them, while the monsters' glowing yellow eyes showed fear in them. Sonic, then opened his mouth, showing razor sharp teeth and spoke.

"Bad move" Sonic said, tightening his grip.

The monster turned into dark energy as Sonics' gaze adjusted to the others.

"Two down…" Sonic started.

"…Eight to go" Khan finished.

Monkey Khan stood up beside Sonic and Sonic nodded.

"Bring it on, Beasties," Sonic exclaimed, running on all fours towards the group of monsters.

Sonic grabbed two monsters by the necks and banged their heads together. Dark purple energy rose from their bodies as Sonic dropped them and moved onto the next one. Monkey Khan hit one on the head with his staff. Dark energy came out of its' gaping mouth. Sonic jumped onto one monster and gave it a deadly beating with his fists. Monkey Khan zapped two with an electricity bolt from his staff. Sonic turned his attention to the last two and was about to jump them. Until, both of them leaped into the air, a few feet above Sonics' height.

You're not getting away that easily, Sonic thought.

Sonic ran towards a tree branch and swung himself around it, until he was sent into the air. Sonic gave the monsters a toothy grin, then as they started falling; Sonic punched both of them. As they picking up force, Sonic made sure he was on top of the monsters.

Once Sonic landed, both monsters had been knocked out from the impact of Sonics' punch and hitting the ground. Everywhere around Sonic was dark purple energy. Sonic arose from the ground and walked over to Monkey Khan. Monkey Khan got his staff ready, just in case this thing only helped him to eat him.

"Who are you?" Khan asked, pointing the staff at Sonic.

Sonic grabbed the staff and lowered it.

"Why would you ask that? You know who I am," Sonic asked.

"I think I would remember knowing a werewolf" Khan said.

Sonic looked a little surprised, then remembered seeing his hand earlier. Sonic grabbed Monkey Khans' staff and looked at his reflection in the red jewel at the end. Sonics' expression of surprise changed to fear, when he saw what was looking back at him. Sonics' blue fur had changed to a midnight blue colour. His brow had lowered, until it looked like Shadows'. Sonics' emerald green eyes looked like they were glowing. His peach skin had changed to light blue along with his hands and muzzle. Long sharp fangs appeared at the edges of his mouth as his fear made him drop the staff. Sonic staggered backwards and looked at the other changes to his body. Sonic saw white puffs of fur around his wrists and long sharp claws protruded from his fingernails. Sonic grabbed one of his quills and examined it. It was still quill-styled, but it had a white patch of fur at the end. He soon turned to look at his shoes. The white stripe was replaced by grey and grey spikes going across the stripe replaced the yellow buckle. They still had their red colour, but it was a bit darker. There were also spikes underneath his shoes, Sonic guessed they were now cleats. Sonic looked behind his back and saw his tail was still shaped like a hedgehog' except it had a little bit more fur on it. Sonic saw his new look and was beginning to feel something build up in the back of his throat. He wanted to scream to the world, seeing all the changes he had gotten. Sonic took a good look at himself one last time. He grabbed his head with both hands and lifted his head up. Looking up to the bright shining stars. His eyes then adjusted themselves to the moon. The full, shining glimmer made Sonic do what he wanted to do. Sonic closed his eyes, took his hands away from his head, lifted his muzzle until it fully faced the moon. Opened his mouth and let out a scream of horror turning into a howl of pain.

"NOOOOOO!" he howled at the moon.

He then lowered his head to look at Monkey Khan, his expression full of hope and yet still of anger. Monkey Khan picked up his staff and pointed it at Sonic, once more.

"Who are you?" Khan shouted. "Answer my question!"

Sonic fell onto the ground, feeling as if he didn't know himself anymore.

The way I fought, Sonic thought, That's not how I usually fight.

Sonic stopped his thinking, when he heard a growling noise. Sonic lifted his head and pricked up his ears. The growling noise started again. Except this time it was louder. Sonic turned around to see if there were anymore monsters, but there weren't. Sonic then realised where the growling was coming from. Sonic looked at his stomach and felt a pain inside it. Sonic cringed a bit at the pain. He tried to stand up while it hurt. Sonic stood up and held his aching stomach with a clawed hand.

"Why am I so hungry?" Sonic asked. "I ate a whole heap of chilidogs this morning."

Monkey Khans' sky blue eyes widened at what he just heard.

"Sonic?" he asked.

"Yeah, except…I'm not a hedgehog now. Am I?" Sonic asked, turning his body around.

Monkey Khan shook his head. Sonic looked at Monkey Khan with a confused look on his face.

"What do you mean?" Sonic asked, tilting his head sideways a bit.

"You've still got hedgehog features of yourself" Khan answered.

"Like what?" Sonic asked, crossing his arms.

"You've still got quills and a tail like a hedgehogs'" Khan explained.

Sonic nodded, still a little bit upset about his new look.

"Anyways, Sonic, you said you were hungry?" Khan said.

"Am I ever" Sonic cried.

"Okay then, lets' go back to the Dragon Kingdom for the night and we'll go back to new Mobotropolis tomorrow" Khan explained.

Sonic nodded once more and unfolded his arms. Monkey Khan opened a portal to the Dragon Kingdom with his staff. Khan and Sonic then jumped through it and found themselves in the Dragon Kingdom.

Wow! A lot of fighting going on here. As I told you last chapter I'm not that good at describing fight scenes, but I try my hardest. Hope you enjoyed, Chap3 will be up tomorrow. See ya next chap.
