Silver the Hedgehog and Shahra, the Genie had followed Ali Baba's instructions and flown west to find the Rukh. Which they did. They had found a flock of Rukh flying the west. There were ruins on top of the Rukh's back. The sky was orange... the sun was setting and the Rukh that he and Shahra were on was flying tens of thousands of feet within the air.
"Wow. So, this giant fossil... thing must be the Rukh that Ali Baba had told us about." Silver the Hedgehog said as he stood on the massive fossil. He turned his head, left and right. Staring at his surroundings. There were ruins on the Rukh's back and the wind current was strong.
"Indeed. Sinbad must be on one of these giant fossils." Shahra said as she looked to Silver.
Unbeknownst to the both of them, a single half broken stone pillar had broken broken off on the Rukh's back and had flown toward the direction of Silver and Shahra.
As Silver was talking to Shahra, he noticed a flying pillar was flying in their direction and Shahra's back was turned. He gasped. "Look out!" Silver had jumped in front of Shahra and used his psychokinesis to catch the broken stone pillar.
Shahra had gasped, when she saw Silver jumped in front of her. Then, the next thing she saw was Silver using his psychokinesis abilities to catch a flying pillar. 'That pillar. If not for Silver, then that pillar would've hit me.' Shahra had thought as she stared the pillar.
Silver had then thrown the pillar he caught with his psychokinesis to the side and turned back to Shahra in concern. "Are you okay, Shahra?"
Shahra looked to Silver, then nodded. "I'm fine. Thank you."
"We have to get out of this weather!" Silver said, then pointed forward at a ruined castle in front of them. "There's nearby a castle! We can take refuge there, until the wind dies down."
"Okay!" Shahra had replied.
Silver and Shahra had then flown toward the ruined castle. As they had flown... within the span of a minute, a few more half-broken stone pillars had broken off the Rukh's back and flown toward Silver and Shahra. Lucikly, Silver had flown in front of Shahra and used his psychokinesis to catch the flying pillars and quickly discard them all. Afterward, both Silver and Shahra would take refuge inside a ruined castle.
After entering the ruined castle, Silver and Shahra had roamed and looked around to see nothing there, but walls and more ruins inside. Their was no roof as the brick ceiling had collapsed for as how long. Leaving the castle, vulnerable to rain.
"There's nothing here." Silver said.
"Right. We should be safe in here, for now." Shahra said as she looked up at the ceiling. Shahra had suddenly gasped when she had suddenly sensed a few evil djinn emerging from the dark corners of the shadows. She then turned, four o'clock and saw two Gargoyle Djinn within the castle. They begun to eject themselves from the stone pillars they sat on. "Silver!"
"I'm on it!" Silver said as he then prepared to fight the Ma Djinn within the castle. He quickly looked at the big chunks of debris on the ground and flung them at the two Gargoyle Djinn before them.
The pair of Gargoyle Djinn saw the controlled debris flung their way and were two slow to dodge them. They ended up being destroyed by them, face first. Then, their body collapsed and broke apart, like marble.
"That should take care of that." Silver said, optimistically.
"Hm." Shahra smiled, then silently gasped when she sensed more evil spirits coming. "Silver! I don't think... that's the end of them."
Silver had looked to Shahra. "What?"
"Up there! Look!" Shahra had pointed at the sky.
Silver then looked up. And when he did... his eyes widened a few inches. What he saw was more than two dozen Gargoyle Djinn flying hundreds of feet above them in the air. Circling the castle that they were in.
"There's more of them?" Silver had asked.
One of the Gargoyle Djinn had screeched at them.
"Alright! Bring it on!" Silver said with courage in his voice as he prepared to fight them,
Ten Minutes Later...
For the past ten minutes, Silver had been fighting and destroying more than two dozen of Gargoyle Djinn had flown into the ruined castle where Silver and Shahra were taking refuge in and attacked them.
"I think that's all of them." Silver said as he wiped his nose. He and Shahra were now surrounded by debris of now dead Gargoyle Djinn.
"Yeah." Shahra had nodded toward Silver, then gasped.
"What's wrong, Shahra?" Silver asked, confusingly.
"You're hurt." Shahra had pointed at Silver's upper right arm.
"Eh?" Silver had looked at his right arm and noticed a cut on his upper right. "Oh, this? It's just a flesh wound."
"I'm really sorry." Shahra had asked.
"Don't be. I've fought tougher enemies." Silver chuckled.
"Please, master. Wish for a handkerchief." Shahra had asked.
"Um... okay. I wish for a... handkerchief." Silver had done what Shahra asked and wished.
Suddenly, Shahra had snapped her fingers and a white handkerchief had appeared from thin air. Shahra had quickly grabbed it and tied it around Silver's upper right arm over the cut.
"Um... Shahra?" Silver asked.
"I just can't bare to see my master wounded." Shahra said.
"Um, okay..." Silver had stared at Shahra.
Suddenly... the strong wind outside the castle had stopped blowing.
"Hey, look! No more noise outside! That means, the wind must've stopped blowing." Silver said as his ears twitched.
"Yes! You're right." Shahra had replied.
"Let's keep going!" Silver said as he then continued leading the charge to find Sinbad of the Seven Seas.
Half an Hour Later...
Silver the Hedgehog and Shahra, the Genie had spent half an hour flying from Rukh-to-Rukh to find Sinbad of the Seven Seas. They had searched at least five different Rukhs and eventually found Sinbad's cell. Sinbad of the Seven Seas was a red echidna with a sword at his side and wore Middle Eastern drapes. They had found Sinbad trapped in a circular cage with locks on them.
"Hey, you! Are you the one known as Sinbad?" Silver had asked the adventurer, trapped in a cage.
"Yes! I am! I am known as the Adventurer of Adventurers! Who are you?" Sinbad had asked, not seeing Silver, before.
"Oh, Sinbad. It really is you, the Great Adventurer." Shahra said in a positive demeanor. "Would you be willing to share some of your worldly wisdom with us?" She asked, kindly.
"Well, let's see, uh..." Sinbad stared at Shahra-as he did not know her name.
"Shahra." Shahra had introduced herself to Sinbad.
"Yeah, Shahra. I'd hate to break it to you, and..." Sinbad looked at Silver.
"Silver. Silver, the Hedgehog." Silver had introduced himself to Sinbad.
"Yeah. I'm stuck in here. You both should be the ones helping me." Sinbad said, then touched the cage door guarded by dark magic. Keeping Sinbad inside the cage and everyone else out.
Shahra had sensed something ominous, then saw purple aura surrounding the lock on the front cage door. She saw purple aura surrounding the lock. "I feel a strong magical force, here. It must be the work of the Erazor Djinn. If we can break the spell, then we can undo this lock." Shahra said as she stared at the lock on the front cage door.
"Now, we're talking! That's the ticket, Shahra." Sinbad said.
"I think I can help." Silver said, then walked toward the lock.
"Hm?" Sinbad looked to Silver who stood in front of the cage door.
Silver had the raised his right hand and activated his psychokinesis abilities to take hold of the lock. "We don't need a key to undo the lock. As I have..." Then, he pulled his right arm back and ripped the lock off the door. "Psychokinesis!"
After Silver had ripped the lock off the door, the cage door had collaped in front of Sinbad.
"Ah..." Sinbad gasped in amazement.
Silver had then discarded the lock.
Sinbad had then walked out of the cage. "Finally, I'm free!" Sinbad yelled in joy. After ten seconds of celebrating being free from the cage... he cracked his knuckles. "Now, time to get back at that genie who locked me up in here!" Sinbad had begun running to a certain direction, until...
"Wait!" Silver had called, which made Sinbad stop in place. "Aren't you going to help us?"
Sinbad had turned around. "Huh? Help you?"
"We came here, because we heard you have knowledge of one of the Seven World Rings." Shahra said.
"Seven World Rings, huh?" Sinbad had thought for a moment, then remembered something. "Oh! I know what you mean."
"You do?" Silver asked.
"Yes. You see, I used to possess a Water Blue Ring-in order to control storms. But that was before that cursed caped genie locked me in that cage and gave it to the pirates." Sinbad said as he had thought of the Water Blue Ring.
"The Water Blue Ring..." Shahra muttered.
"Pirates." Silver said.
"Yes. And after I get back my ring back... I'm going to use it to drown that genie-so that he won't lock me in another age again!" Sinbad growled and clinched his fists.
Silver and Shahra embarrassingly chuckled.
