Disclaimer: I do not own Sonic the Hedgehog. But I do own a copy Sonic and the Secret Rings on Nintendo Wii.

Silver the Hedgehog had just witnessed his only friend, Blaze the Cat sacrifice herself to seal Iblis away. He helplessly watched her soul drift up into the dark clouds. All of a sudden, dark clouds had instantly disappeared, now being filled with light blue sky and shining sun. The city that was in ruins called, Crisis City and the volcanic land called, the Flame Core had shined with a bright sky and no clouds.

The light had quickly shined on Silver's face and the two Chaos Emeralds that were on the edge of a cliff. He remembered what Sonic had told him, though.

'I'll make sure to change Elise's fate. And that in turn, should change your future too!' Silver remembered Sonic's words, before departing from Kingdom Valley.

Silver looked down at the lava below and realized that nothing has changed at all. He wanted to believe what Sonic said was right. He thought this would be some kind of dynamic time warp. What Silver doesn't know is that if you change some events from the past, this will not change the future that you exist in. Silver wiped the tears from his eyes, as he hoped that Sonic was right.

'What am I going to do now?' Silver thought, as he whimpered right on the edge of the cliff with lava below his feet.

What Silver had no idea of is that there was a special book and a golden ring, big enough to fit your wrist into was present all along. As Silver whimpered, Shahra, whom was inside of the golden ring had felt sorry for Silver, as she had witness his friend, Blaze the Cat sacrifice herself to seal Iblis. After a minute of whimpering, Shahra grew impatient.

"Hello?" Shahra had called Silver. "Are you there?"

"Eh?" Silver raised his head up in confusion. 'What was that noise just now?' Silver turned his head a little to see where the noise was coming from.

"Hey, over here!" she yelled, catching his attention.

"Who said that- Silver gasped, as she noticed a golden ring lying on the ground. He walked closer to the ring big ring and picked it up. "A ring?" he questioned, as he looked at it. 'Did Blaze leave it behind?'

All of a sudden, the ring had started to smoke a little. "You are the white hedgehog." Without warning, a woman had suddenly appeared from the golden ring. The woman had pink hair, gray eyes, tanned skin, pointy ears and a Genie-like attire. Her name is Shahra.

"Whoa!" Silver was surprised.

"Do not be alarmed! I am Shahra, the Genie of the Ring…" Shahra summoned the special book in her hands. "You know, like… Aladdin and the Magic Lamp?"

"To be honest, I never heard of it." Silver said, bluntly.

"What? You've got to be kidding me!" Shahra exclaimed, surprisingly. "It's the best story of all of the Arabian Nights." She bragged.

"Arabian Nights?"

"Yes, well, or at least the second best…" Shahra's eyes shifted away from Silver, then opened a book for Silver. "But that's besides the point. Please, look at this."

Silver looked at the book's pages closely and discovered that the words were disappearing out of thin air and they were completely blank. "The pages are blank…" he noticed.

"Hey, the pages are blank… why's that?" Silver asked Shahra.

"Our world… the world of the Arabian Nights… is vanishing."

"Vanishing? Is there something wrong?" he asked in concern.

"This is the work of an incredibly evil genie… the Erazor Djinn…" Shahra begun to explain.

"A genie named the Erazor Djinn?"

"Yes. He used his evil magic to become even more powerful. Powerful enough to decide that he could not remain in the book any longer. And so, he had set the inscriptions free, absorbing the power of the book itself. If our world vanishes—or ceases to exist, then not only will those stories be silenced forever… but the Erazor Djinn will be unleashed into your world." Shahra explained.

"So, If I eliminate that guy… will your world be saved?" Silver asked.

"Yes." She answered. "Only you, the white hedgehog can stop the Erazor Djinn."

"Hmm, this opponent might be even more powerful than Iblis itself…" Silver thought out loud.

"Iblis?" Shahra asked.

"Well, yes. I just fought him again at least ten minutes ago."

"Oh." Shahra remembered watching Silver fight off a giant lava golem.

"This Erazor Djinn might be someone tough to defeat. But, how do I do that when he's in the book?"

"That's easy. You are my master, having called forth the Genie of the Ring. As such, I am able to grant your wishes… simple wishes, at any rate. Bringing you into the world of the Arabian Nights is within my power. We will be going in there shortly." Shahra explained about Silver being her master.

"Inside of that book?"

Shahra poof'd and had transformed herself into a finger ring. "Now please, place the ring on your finger." Shahra had instructed.

Silver slowly slid the golden ring onto his right ring finger. "What, like this?" As Silver does, he felt electricity and it zapped his hand. "Ouch!" he cringed. "Does it always do that?"

"My apologies, o' Master. But now, the contract has been sealed."

"A contract?"

"Yes. As Master of the ring, I am bound to protect you. If I were to die, the contract would be released and the ring would be destroyed." She said. "Now, rub the ring."

"Okay… like this?" Silver asked, as he gently rubbed he ring.

Shahra once again appeared from the ring. "O' Master of the ring... what is thy wish?" she asked, as she was prepared to grant a wish.

'A wish? I haven't thought of a wish, yet.' Silver looked around the area and felt a little bad. "Shahra?"

"Yes, Master?"

"Can you resurrect all the people, whom were all killed by the Flames of Disaster?" he asked, as he rubbed the ring.

Shahra sadly looked at him. "I am sorry, master. That is beyond my power."

"How come?"

"I am a mere Genie of the Ring. There are rules and wishes that genies cannot grant." She started to lift up fingers. "One, is that genies cannot kill, or grant wishes that would harm another person. Two, is that a genie cannot interfere with true love. And three, is that genies cannot resurrect the dead." She listed out.

"I see…" Silver looked down, the spotted the white and turquoise chaos emeralds. "Hey, Shahra. Can we bring the chaos emeralds with us into the book?" he asked, as he picked up the two chaos emeralds.

"Hm, I don't see why not…"

All of a sudden, Silver remembered Blaze's words back in White Acropolis. 'Collect all seven, and a miracle is supposed to happen. Keep it s a lucky charm.'

"Shahra, my first wish, is for you to summon the remaining chaos emeralds." He commanded.

"Your wish is my command!" Shahra happily summons the seven chaos emeralds from around the world directly to Silver. There are red, blue, green, yellow and purple chaos emeralds at his feet.

Silver smiled. "Thanks, Shahra."

"I'll take these and put them somewhere safe." Shahra used her powers to bring the chaos emeralds to her, shrunken them to the size of pebbles and placed them into her strapless shirt. Silver blushed a little. "There."

"Now, I'm ready to go. Take me to this world of the Arabian Nights."

"As you wish, master."

"Oh, right. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Silver the Hedgehog."

"Very well then, Silver." She said with ease. 'The Legendary Hedgehog.' Shahra smiled back. "Here we go! Into the world of the Arabian Nights!

"Alright!" At that moment, Silver had forgotten about Blaze and moved on to save the Arabian Nights. Shahra had summoned a magic carpet to ride on. "Hey, a magic carpet!"

"Are you ready, Silver?"

"I'm ready when you are!" Shahra shrunk themselves and made their way into the book. "Here we go!" After entering the book, the book had automatically closed itself.

Author's Note: When I first started fanfiction, I created this story. To be honest, I fell off of the story. Now that I am better, I hope to continue and finish this story. This is a What If story of Silver the Hedgehog being chosen by Shahra to help save the world of the Arabian Nights instead of Sonic. Silver the Hedgehog is my favorite character, by the way.
