A demon collapsed on the floor, a dark red sword decorated with blood and skulls lined around the handle clattering on the floor beside him.
An orange echidna landed in front of him, chaos energy clashing against her hands.
The labored breathing from the creature was fully audible. He tried to use his wings, but they fluttered uselessly before collapsing beside him.
"...I'm afraid I'll have to seal you away..."
The was no response from the demon. He grasped his sword, weakly standing it up, helping him get to his feet.
"Kill me... I beg you..." The demon growled, gripping his chest in agony. "I can't take this any longer... I lost everyone I ever cared for... and then you stop me from getting my revenge... I can't take this... just end me... I want to see my family again. I want to see him again..." The demon said in between gasps for air.
The echidna frowned, replying. "I'm sorry, I can't let that happen... nor do I want to kill you..."
However, this was seen differently from the demon's perspective. "No, I'll keep you alive. I love to watch you suffer. You don't deserve to see them, you pathetic abomination... how could they ever miss you? How could they ever love a freak like YOU?"
He growled viciously, his mind deceiving him...
He collapsed from exhaustion, panting. "Damn you..." He snarled, closing his eyes as blood started to drip from his muzzle and form a puddle.
The echidna sighed, putting a hand on the monster's head. She glowed green, slowly putting the creature in a deep sleep...
Present
Sonic woke up, gasping. The room was empty as sunlight shone through the window. The royal blue hedgehog sighed, getting up and closing the curtains. He opened a closet with a key as he took it out of his quills, grabbing a black sword. He inspected it, frowning. The blade of the sword glowed a slight red, surrounded in a dark aura.
"..."
Tails came upstairs, knocking on the door.
"I'll be there, hang on!"
Sonic put the sword back in the closet and locked it, running over and opening the door.
Tails smiled, holding a pan. "Good morning, Sonic!"
The hedgehog smiled, masking what he truly felt. "Hey, buddy." He replied.
The kitsune smiled back, heading downstairs to make breakfast.
"...At least I have you, Tails. At least I have good friends. I don't know what would happen if I lost you." Sonic said a small smile on his muzzle.
3 Hours Later
Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles ran through the corridors of Eggman's Death Egg, arriving in a large room.
The door behind them shut, and a giant mech dropped down from the ceiling.
Eggman laughed as he was in the cockpit, getting the guns on the sides of the robotic brute's hands ready. "Get ready, rodents! Your tombstones will be decorations in my lab!" He said, grinning. The mech flew up, sending bullets raining down on the trio. Knuckles grabbed Sonic and threw him upwards as he spin-dashed into the robot. Eggman gasped out of surprise before the robot fell down.
The mad doctor grinned, firing more bullets before starting to try and stomp one all three mobians.
Suddenly, a window cracked before a jet-black emerald crashed through, the shattering of glass echoing through the room.
Sonic's eyes flashed before the emerald plunged through his chest, sending blood onto the floor as he screamed, gripping his chest in pain.
Tails ran over to his brother as Knuckles continued to fend off the robot.
"Sonic! Are you okay?!" He asked in fear and concern.
Sonic started to growl, making the fox yelp and back away.
Two blue wings emerged from his back, surprising and scaring the kitsune. Eggman noticed this, observing nervously. Knuckles walked over, concerned. Sonic's tail grew longer and more serpentine, along with his teeth growing sharp and wolf-like. His fur grew slightly darker as his eyes slit.
"Stay away from me..." He growled, scaring Tails. Knuckles crossed his arms but suddenly jumped.
Eggman shot more bullets, screaming, "Our battle isn't over yet, rodents! GET A LOAD OF THIS!" He then shot a bullet directly at Sonic.
"NO!" The kitsune shouted, jumping in front of Sonic, taking the bullet to the heart. He fell, and Sonic gasped. He kneeled down, trying to help the fox. "No..." He whispered, tears streaming down his muzzle.
Tails smiled. "I'm glad I could save you, Sonic..." He coughed.
Sonic's eyes widened. "No... don't die on me, Tails..."
The fox warmly smiled again. "Don't worry, Sonic. I'll still be with you..."
He breathed his final breath, before closing his eyes.
"TAILS?!"
"No..."
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He cried, before looking at Eggman in pure rage. He snarled, showing his teeth before roaring in hatred.
"You'll die for what you did to him..."
