Chapter 13: Identity Problems
Shadow Fox stopped walking for a moment, a sudden twinge of pain striking at his heart. He looked around and then stopped Vinny and Sonic.
"Something isn't right..." he muttered.
"What do you mean?" Vinny asked curiously.
"I mean, something isn't right with my sister and/or Phantom." Shadow Fox answered, his eyes glancing around.
"What do you think it is?" Sonic questioned looking over his shoulder to see if anything was behind them.
"I don't know but..." Shadow Fox was cut off by a sudden cry for help.
The scream reached the trio as: "SOMEBODY COME QUICK!" They all looked at each other, nodded adn dashed off in the direction that they had come from. After a bit of searching, they were coming up on the group when they saw the two robotic fiends back and the fight had already been engaged. Haze was the one who had screamed and she was just rammed into by Metal.
Sonic increased to full speed to simple be knocked back by Metal's Black Shield. The entire group was sent flying backwards from where they were standing. Sonic felt hot blood sliding down his face and he wiped it away for it only to be replaced by more of the crimson liquid. A deep, gaping wound was going across his head, blood seeping slowly from it.
Knuckles got up and lunged at Metal with a wild cry. Eggman used a robotic claw to grab the echidna by his waist, causing Knuckles to halt from charging at Metal Sonic, and began bashing him on the ground. With each impact, Knuckles cried out until he blacked out from such intense pain. Eggman then tossed him with a laugh. Knuckles landed on the ground near Rouge.
The white bat stared at Knuckles, who remained unmoving. She reached toward him but pulled back as he groaned softly. Rouge was on her knees next to him as he tried to sit up.
"Knuckles stop!" she demanded gently pushing him back down to the ground.
"I... need to..." Knuckles tried to catch his breath as he tried to get again.
"No, stay still!" she barked, her attitude flaring.
Knuckles eyes half closed, but then shot back open quickly. "GET OUT OF THE WAY!" he screamed as he tackled her to the ground.
The two went rolling aways away. A missle flew over their heads. Rouge looked up at Knuckles with awe. He then fell to his side and she instantly tried to aid the wounded echidna. He tried to make her let him go fight again, but she refused as she helped him stand, his arm over her shoulder and she ran off farther from the fight.
Espio and Hope were throwing wave shrukeins at the two machines, but Espio was caught off by surprise as Metal's Black shield richocetted them back at him. He camoflauged himself and dodged out of the way. He then ran toward Eggman, ramming the cyborg with his good shoulder. Eggman fell over and instantly got back up.
The darkness around the entire group began to fade, and Espio quickly noticed. He ran swiftly toward Charmy who was performing a joint attack with Vector and Vinny.
"Charmy! The darkness will disappear the more you attack and hit them!" Espio yelled as he ran by.
The bee was confused but he knew Espio was telling him something important. Vector then called up to him: "CHARMY NOW!" At the signal, Charmy flew upwards carryin Vector and Vinny into the air. He then did a loop in the air, and when he came around, he let go and the hedgehog and crocodile both flew towards Metal. They tackled him to the ground and Vector jammed his elbow into Metal's chest plate as Vinny held him down.
Metal surged but them blasted the two off with a strange energy blast. He was about to pull himself up but Charmy dove down and stomped on Metal, then quickly jumped away. Metal got up, his dented chest plate instantly repairing.Vinny gaped but then looked up at the sky. It was becoming more visable. He then glanced toward Sonic escaped toward him.
He nearly reached but only to be blocked by Eggman. He skidded to a halt and prepared to attack, but Shadow Fox came and collided with the cyborg. He then let Vinny pass as he understandingly nodded. Vinny did the same and ran the rest of the way to the injured blue hedgehog.
Sonic winced as Vinny helped him off the ground. "Where's Knuckles...?" he muttered, putting his hand to his head.
"I think he and someone else ran off. Knuckles was badly hurt by Eggman and a female bat, Rouge I think, took him somewhere else." Vinny explained.
Sonic nodded and then took off after the two. Vinny turned his head and then his eyes widened with shock. "What in the..." he began.
In Knothole Village
House have been destroyed to the ground and set a blaze. In the midst of an inferno, a black and red fox with a red aura stood, holding up a young hedgehog by his neck. The hedgehog squirmed trying to fight her off. But his attempts were in vain and his life was quickly ended as he was smashed against a wall and then into the fire.
Twilight laughed as she heard him scream before his life faded away. She then disappeared from the scene to continue her reckless destruction strike. She then spotted Amy running away. She ran after her and cut her off by standing in front of her. Amy screamed and fell backwards.
"What's the matter Amy?" Twilight's doubled over voice changing for possessed sweet, to possessed insane.
"Michelle, I..." Amy was cut off by Twilight punching the sh!t out of her.
"The name's Twilight, you stupid little girl!" Twilight hissed angrily. "Don't forget it!"
"I'm sorry!" Amy began to sob, "I d-didn't know!"
Twilight was about to speak again, but the raging headache came back. She began to scream in pain as the aura began to fade in and out. Amy stopped bawling long enough to look at the writhing fox. What was going on...? The fox's aura had faded and her eyes were just red again. She stood up swaying a little.
"Whoa..." Midnight moaned holding her head. "I can't stand getting headaches..." she muttered to herself. She then looked at Amy. "What are you staring at...?"
"You were just... I... you..." Amy then growled to herself. "WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO PULL?" she hissed standing up, her fists clenched.
Midnight sighed and yawned, rubbing her nose. "What ever do you mean?" she asked in a smart alic way. "I'm not doing anything. And I haven't been for the past while."
Amy grabbed her Piko Piko hammer that was laying a few feet from her and gripped it tightly. "What do you mean by that...?" she roared. "You just destroyed the village and you call that not doing anything?"
Midnight looked around and then said, "I didn't do this. And if I did... I did a pretty damn good job." she laughed.
Before she knew it, Midnight had been smack to the ground by Amy and her trusty hammer. She got back on her knees and looked at Amy like she was insane.
"WHAT THE HELL?" she screamed, standing feeling very angered.
"YOU JUST KILLED ALOT OF PEOPLE AND THEN ARE PRETENDING LIKE YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG! WHAT ON EARTH IS YOUR PROBLEM? YOU ALMOST KILLED ME AND CREAM!" Amy screeched.
Midnight looked at her with a raised eyebrow and then looked around again as Amy continued to scream at her about her wrong doings. She didn't remember killing anyone, except Eggman but he came back. She didn't even remember entering the village. She looked around and then looked at Amy again. She then took a deep breath and walked up to her, covering her mouth.
Amy stared at the fox confusedly and filled with rage. Midnight's blunt expression kind of surprised her.
"Now, when I let go of your mouth, you are going to tell me what i did and when I did it. I may even just hit you back so do not be surprised if I do..." she told her in a very venomous tone.
Amy nodded a little before Midnight removed her hand and took a few steps back. Midnight sighed and brushed the hair away from her eyes.
"So... what the hell are you bitching about?" she asked putting her hands on her hips.
Amy recalled what had happened ever since Midnight began to act strangely when her eyes changed back to blue, up to the point of the present. Midnight listened on with interest until she was finished. The female fox closed her eyes adn nodded for a moment. Then within a flash of a moment, she drove her fist into Amy's stomach with full force.
"I warned you about that." Midnight told her as she walked away from her as the pink hedgehog tred to catch her breath.
Midnight dashed through the forest back toward the ruins of Sonic's house. There, Phantom was just now getting up. She ran over to him and stood in front of him.
"Phantom? What the hell happened to...?" Midnight was cut off by being grabbed by the throat. Phantom stood up choking her, glaring at her.
"Is there a specific reason you attacked me the way you did...?" he growled, tightening his grip on her throat.
"Phantom it's me you idiot!" she gagged, clawing at his hand. "Where's Shadow Fox?"
Phantom dropped her and stared at her disbelievingly. She put her hand to throat and stared angrily up at him.
"What is your problem!... I guess Amy was telling the truth..." she mumbled thinking hard. "What happened to me...?"
"You turned into some kind of psycho and nearly killed me!" Phantom snapped angrily.
"I thought phantoms couldn't die..." Midnight commented, beginning to laugh a little.
"Midnight, this is no laughing matter. There's something wrong with you. Do you have any idea on how serious this kind of thing is? You just destroyed half a village, you cannot laugh at something like this..." Phantom informed her angrily.
Just as Midnight stopped laughing, the headache came back. She screamed and held her head sinking weakly to her knees. Phantom backed away as the fox's body began to shake violently. Her whole body began to change.Her fur began to change back to the orange-yellow color it once was before.
Phantom watched in amazement as the female fox stood up, she had returned back to her normal form. She looked up and around.
"W-what happened...?" she whispered holding her head.
"Midnight...?" Phantom faultered.
"Who...? What are you talking about...?" she whispered. "I'm not Midnight."
"Then who are you...?" he asked softly.
Suddenly two other fox's were visable but transparent. One looked like Midnight and the other looked like Twilight. They stood on either side of the orange fox.
All three of them looked at Phantom, and answered in different toned voices but in unison. "Who do you think I am?"
