Crisis City seemed to be full of more flames, magma, and lava than if ever was before as Mephiles The Dark was blasting various skyscrapers with his dark energy, causing them to explode in bright, bursting flames as they slowly sunk into the rising molten magma. E-123 Omega watched as Mephiles summoned more Iblis creatures as a result of the destruction.

"This shadowy figure that poses as a hedgehog craves destruction as much as I do," Omega stated to himself in a robotic tone as he slowly moved his mechanical arms around. "But unlike me, he does it simply because it's fun."

"You damn well know that this is fun," Mephiles remarked to Omega as he laughed, blasting parts of the burnt road as some of its parts turned into flames, with the Crisis City becoming a hotter environment.

Nearby the scene of fire and destruction towards the east, Silver The Hedgehog and Blaze The Cat were feeling the heat as they were marching through the flames, watching Mephiles continuing to cause panic and destruction.

"Ugh! That cursed Mephiles is the incarnation of malice!" Blaze exclaimed as she shook her fists, shaking her head. "Why does he crave to ruin our lives more!?"

"Unfortunately, he's a literal necessary evil." Silver stated as he placed his right hand on Blaze's shoulder, rolling his left hand around. "If we didn't have Mephiles here, the universe wouldn't be balanced, and everything would be sucked up into being non existent."

It was then that Mephiles fired a bright bursting purple fireball at Silver and Blaze, causing them both to catch on fire as he evilly laughed, getting his jollies from causing despair to all.

"It's good to be bad," Mephiles chuckled as he formed two purple fireballs in his hand, chucking them everywhere as he caused more fire to become prevalent in the apocalyptic city of hell.
