Starting
In Metal City, Nora is running away from a mad man, or is he really crazy or just mad? Nora was running off with a grin on her face with a stolen Chaos Drive for her gear! Hiroaki grabbed her from a building roof and slung her on it. The man was confused on where she went....

Chapter 1: Stranger from the Shadows
Hiroaki- Nora, you got to stop stealing like that!

Nora- Eh, its only when I can't afford it!

(Nora puts chaos drive away)

Nora- Now, are we going to go home or what?!

(Hiroaki didn't listen)

Nora- YO! Stretch! Aren't you coming?!

Hiroaki- Nora, I think something just moved in that ally....

(Unseen, a shadowy figure creeps up behind Hiroaki...)

(Nora fires a lazer at the shadowy figure while Hiroaki screamed)

Nora- Don't be a baby!

Hiroaki- Who is that?!

(A unknown shadow appeared behind Nora)

Nora- Huh? What the---

(Nora gets knocked out and is carried off by the shadow)

Hiroaki- NORA!

(Hiroaki tries to grab Nora but the shadow avoided the hit and Hiroaki got whiplash and fell)

Hiroaki- Nora! *cries*

(A yellow and black dragonfly walks by, whistling. She sees Hiroaki and runs over to her.)

Volt- Hey, are you okay?

(Knight is taking a walk along the city sidewalks, but finds someone who appears to be in dispair.)

Knight: Hm? *walks up to Hiroaki* Out of pure curiosity, what appears to be the problem?

Hiroaki- *Sniff* Huh? Who are you?

Knight: A random bystander. If you want to know my name, rephrase your question.

Hiroaki- Oh!

(Hiroaki stands up and bows)

Hiroaki- I am Hiroaki DaichiMizu, please may I ask, what is your name?

Knight: Call me Knight. Knight the Fox. Recalling my recent question, was something wrong?

Hiroaki- My friend Nora got kidnapped, I tried to save her, but... I'm too weak....

(Hiroaki looks down, ashamed....)

Knight: You can't be possibly weaker than I am. Most people I meet have all these crazy abilities that could wipe out civilizations. All I have is a sword. You need not to feel shame. Of course our combined forces could possibly be enough to get your friend back. I know how it feels to lose someone close to you, and I wouldn't want the events to be replicated.

Volt- Yeah, don't feel bad. We'll get your friend back somehow.

(Hiroaki looks up and smiles)

Hiroaki- Okay, and, my ability isn't powerful... just freakish....

Knight: No need to show me until you actually need to use it, we'll need all our energy if this foe is strong.

(Hiroaki scratches his head in thought)

Hiroaki- But, we don't even know who this foe is, all I saw was a shadow....

(Hiroaki looks down, but then shifted his head up as if he got a idea)

Hiroaki- Well there is one person who would know anything about shadows and dark guys, it would be Kumiko....but....

Knight: Then we should meet with this Kumiko person. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt.

Hiroaki- But! Kumiko is a Charmling, if you don't know what that is, it's a type of witch...

(Hiroaki places his arms behind his back)

Hiroaki- And she's not too kindly to Nora... Plus, I don't where she....

Kumiko- I'm sorry, were you talking about me?

(Hiroaki fell in surpised, as Kumiko appeared out of nowhere)

Kumiko- I'm Kumiko Misou...

(Kumiko was a flowerless seedrian with long black hair and side-burns typed at the bottom, her eyes were a burning red, she wore a velvet-colored vest with long, oversized sleeves that were red and a big white bow on her chest, her black dress hid her feet, she had a paper bow in her hair)

Knight: Hm. Well that was quick. I'm Knight the Fox. Do you know anything about this shadow, Kumiko? Assuming you heard pretty much everything else we said.

(A winged creature flies down from the skies. Upon further inspection, they find that he is angel. He has a green color with a fox tail, and hedgehog ears.)

Angel: Well then, whats been going on here?

(Hiroaki gets up)

Hiroaki- Well, you see my friend has been kidnapped....

(Kumiko knocks Hiroaki back down)

Kumiko- Shut it "run-away"...

(Hiroaki rubs his head)

Kumiko- A star-light haired seedrian of the name Nora Kouba has been kidnapped, I believe what has kidnapped her was a demon of the ability to hide it's identity. However, there is only one of it's kind that I know of that exists...

Angel: Well then, sounds like I can help out. *holds out hand* The names Isaih. My team would be glad to help out.....if I could find them that is.

Kumiko- I will not be helping no more, for now... But the one that I know of is a being that goes by the name of Arthur Shiranai..

(Kumiko disappears, while Hiroaki gets up)

Hiroaki- I know where he is, he's in the Hayashi Forest!

Isaih: I'll go and do whatever I need.

Hiroaki- We need a ride, the forest is 50 miles away!

Knight: We can go to the Extreme Gear shop a couple blocks down the street, I got a couple rings to spend.

Hiroaki- When me and Nora go there, we ride on her Extreme Gear, even though I tend to fall off, but I can easily grab back on...

(Hiroaki stops, and thinks about what he just said)

Knight: If you want to save your relative, then maybe we should just go instead of sitting here and listening to your stories.

[Knight already walked halfway down the street to the shop.]

(Hiroaki gets startled then mad)

Hiroaki- *shaking fist* Nora's not my sister, she's a plant, I'm a hedgehog!

(Out of annoyance, Hiroaki slung his hand on a lamp post and flung himself past Knight)

Hiroaki- I guess you didn't know, but I'm like rubber!

(Hiroaki still rather mad, but knows he shouldn't have done that...)

(Isaih flies down from the sky)

Isaih: Hey sorry about the delay...............something wrong?

[Knight, making no attempt to catch up, eventually ends up at the general area Hiroaki is.]

Knight: Hey, I didn't know. So that was that "Weird" ability you spoke of? Pretty interesting if you ask me.

[He then walks into the shop and starts browsing the "Fly" section.]

[Isaih catches up, a bit irritated that nobody responded to him]

Isaih: What did I miss?

Knight: Nothing you should be worried about. Now let's see here...hm...Too expensive...Too retarded...Just plain stupid...Aha, what is this?

[He then picks up a board that appeared to be a round body with two wings coming from the sides, and which the color scheme was shining blue with silver linings along the side wings.]

Knight: Appropriate.

Hiroaki- But, it needs a battery... OH!

(Hiroaki took something out of his vest)

Hiroaki- When Nora got kidnapped, she dropped this, I found it, it's suppose to be a chaos drive for Gear...

(What Hiroaki was holding was the newest and most powerful Chaos Drive, Chaos Drive GB:MX 2100!)

Hiroaki- It might be of some use...

Devin- What's going on here?

(Hiroaki turns around)

Hiroaki- Huh? Who are you?

Devin- Oh. I'll introduce myself. My name is Devin the Fox and I just want to join your adventure. Where's your friend at? Did he or she get kidnapped or so I heard?

[Knight compared the battery to the gear, checking for compatibility.]

Knight: This'll work. Thanks.

[He then opens the panel on the bottom of the board, and inserts the battery.]

(A small half-black and half-white young fox girl walks in)

Split: What's going on? I heard about a kidnapping!

(Hiroaki scratches his head)

Hiroaki- My friend Nora the Seedrian, or Nora Kouba, has been kidnapped by a Nue... Well, by words of Kumiko that is...

(Turns back at Knight)

Hiroaki- I wonder how long it'll take us, each gear differs in speed...

[Knight opens and begins to read the manual that came with the already purchased gear.]

Knight: But they all have different ways of gaining incredible speed. Mine, for example, can double in speed while in the air, so I'd just need a small ramp or something to jumpstart it.

Split: I don't ride gear. I teleport. Or run. I'm super fast! ^_^

Knight: Good for you. Now excuse me...*hops on the floating board*...as I test this machine.

[Knight zooms forward on his board, hitting some ramps and gaining serious speed.]

Knight: Flies like a dream. I'll be outside when you're all done...doing...activities.

(Split just rolls her eyes and shakes head, then steps outside)

Split: Whatever. I'm going to the forest.

(Split turns into a greyish blur as she dashes towards the forest)

Devin- Maybe we should test it.

(Hiroaki purchased a yacht-type gear)

(Hiroaki starts getting on the gear)

Hiroaki- (I never rode a gear before without Nora, but, she always tells me not to be such a baby.... I guess I'll have to be strong as her if I have anyhope to save her...)

Hiroaki- Hmm... Yacht type gear can ride on drafts by someone else, I guess I'll help me catch up...

(Hiroaki takes out a chaos drive, not like the other one, but it works)

(Hiroaki steps onto the yacht and it starts up)

Hiroaki- ''AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!! ''THATS FAST!

Devin- Yeah. I should have figured that.

(In a castle in somewhere else)

Nora- LET ME GO YA JERK!

(Nora kept baning on the cage bars, as she screamed)

???- SILENCE GIRL! I must have SILENCE!

Nora- What? Can't use the bathroom in peace?

???- You might want to stop that sassing, right now!

(Nora sticked her tounge out)

???- Argh! Hmph, just soon, I'll have your light and you shall speak no more!

Nora- What are you talking about?! And just WHO are you!?!

???- Oh, just someone that you know, a long time ago....

(??? takes off his mask and cloak)

(Nora goes into shock)

Nora- W-w-wait, you're....

Chapter 2: Hayashi, forest of innocent Demons
(Hiroaki is still gripping the gear in fright)

Hiroaki- I think... ngh... we're almost there!

(Hiroaki hits a tree and flies off)

Hiroaki- Ngh... ow.....

(Split laughs, then stops when she notices a strange cloaked figure in the forest)

(Cloaked figure sees that Split noticed him, then runs deeper in the forest)

Split: Hey! Guys? Did you see the hooded figure? He seemed to be running off in a hurry!

Hiroaki- What hooded figure, all I see is stars... @_@

(Split slaps him)

Split: Wakey Wakey stupid!! I mean THAT hooded figure!

(She points to the figure, who's still running deeper into the forest)

(rubs face)

Hiroaki- Ow!

(Hiroaki notices the shady figure too)

Hiroaki- Don't worry I'll get him!

(Hiroaki stretches his arm out to grab the cloaked person, but he escaped and Hiroaki's arm smacked back at him)

Hiroaki- Ugh.. The good thing about being rubber is, you always bounce back! Ow...

[Knight catches up with the others, and speaks as the gear flies under his arm.]

Knight: Hey, did I miss anything?

Split: Oh nothing...Ruki just missed catching some sorta hooded figure...I'll get him...

(Split dashes into the forest, then comes back with the figure tied up and dragged behind her)

Split: Gotcha.

(She dumps the figure, who rolls a bit, and stops in front of Hiroaki)

???: And what might you want?

Knight: Well what do you think? One, your identity. Two, your reason for being here. Mysterious cloaked folk aren't really...you know...what's the word for it?

Hiroaki- Trustworthy? Friendly? Good-hearted?

Knight: Pretty much. Thanks.

(Hiroaki smiles)

(Figure just spits at his feet, then says something in an unknown language)

Split: Listen jerk, it's either you pull off the hood, or I do it for ya!

(Figure just grunts)

Knight: I'd hate to have to resort to violence, but if that's what I must do...*sigh*

[Knight pulls out his sword and then points it at the cloaked figure.]

Knight: Answer to our demands. We can do this the easy way, and you can just walk away. Or, we can do this the hard way and risk your body becoming one with the soil. Your choice.

(Hiroaki grins deviously)

Hiroaki- I took down 3 knights that attacked my mother, and they all went running like babies... You want to know why? The hard way?

(Hiroaki swings his arm, making a whip-like noise)

(A grey figure walks out from the shadows. He has no complete resemblance of any mobian creature, he just switches from animal to animal as he speaks.)

???:Come now let the man go will ya?

Knight: We asked two simple questions. It's his fault that he's acting like a di--wait, who are you?

???: *smiles* The name is Renegade, I also go by Renegade the Hedgemorph or Renegade the Ancient. Whichever suites me more.

Isaih: *Walks up to everyone* I see you've met my third in charge. Swell!

???: I'm not afraid of any of you. Not the knight in tarnished armor, the grey dude, the rubber freak, or the angel.

(Figure spits again, then says something in the strange language again)

[Knight is angered by this figure's arrogance.]

Knight: You're in no position to make any smart remarks you, so you'd better get some sense right now, or I'll slice your to.

Renegade: *looks at figure* Are you of my race? *Changes to a dark gray Hedgehog with a full black outfit*

Isaih: *smiles* well this boy has alot of guts.

Split: Just pull your hood off!

???: There's two things that are not gonna happen. One, I'm not pulling my hood down. And two, you guys scaring me. And that's exactly why I have claws.

(Figure quickly draws sharp claws, then cuts the ropes like spaghetti, then speeds off on a hover-board)

Knight: Now you KNOW something's up. All he had to do was reveal his identity...

[He throws his extreme gear in the air, and hops on it, the sword sliding right back into his case while doing so.]

Knight: ...And that would've screwed him up somehow. We'll find out once we catch that creep.

(Figure looks over shoulder)

???: Never make it easy...Always the hard way.

(Figure clones self into 5, then all five figures fly in different directions)

Renegade: Let me be of assisstance... *Turns into 5 as well, and they all dissapear*

???: Ughh...They never give up...

(Figure spreads huge dragon wings, then flies upward)

???: Catch me now! *flies off*

(Saddens from what the figure said... but thought of something...)

Hiroaki- WAIT! Mr. Cloak guy, you can't fly too high, or he'll get mad!

(Hiroaki seems like he knows more about the forest then he lets on)

Devin- Wait a minute. Did you hear the tone of that guy's voice?

(Hiroaki didn't listen, but kept telling the cloaked-figure about the skies)

Hiroaki- The skies will get mad! The skies will get mad! HE will get mad!

(He seems confused)

???: Who are you talking about?!?

Knight: It could be one of two things: The stalling theory, where if you keep flying up for a certain amount of time, you lose control. The second theory is that you would fly too close to the sun and your wings would melt. Poor Icarus.

Hiroaki- NO! There's a Sky God living in the forest, if you head into the cloud that doesn't move with the wind, you'll be in danger!

Knight: Crap, don't tell him that! Oh, wait...he's gotten too close already, never mind.

Hiroaki- I can't watch...

(All of a sudden there was a bright flash, then around 30 blue arrows bursted from the clouds aiming at the cloaked being)

Unknown Voice- Stay away from my territory!

(Surprisingly, the voice sounded young)

Knight: Heheh...reminds me of a fireworks show.

Devin- Who goes there?

[Knight grins.]

Knight: Who goes where? I go nowhere.

Voice- You cannot see the air, typical mortals...

(All of a sudden clouds swirled around in the air and a strange being appeared from it)

Voice- I am Sho Za Sora Takehiko, God of Skies, why are outsiders going into my clouds?!

(He was a light blue hedgehog with white hair, he had different symbols on his clothing, and purple crystals on his sleeves, he wore gauze on his legs as socks, his shoes were medival-like)

Sora- Leave, or recieve your penalty!

(Sora took out a bow, big as him and started perparing arrows formed by wind but pierced like diamond)

???: Oh.

(Figure then lands, then starts to run)

(Hiroaki spots a large rock)

Hiroaki- Hey, is it true that a mortal can't harm a god?

Sora- *turns head* Hmm?!

(Hiroaki wraps his arms around the rock and spins, then he released it! The rock hit Sora HARD! And Sora fell from the sky and landed infront of everyone)

Hiroaki- Then, how am I able to harm you?!

Sora- *cough* *cough*

Split: Ruki! He's getting away! AGAIN!!

(She points to the strange figure, who's not far, but still running)

Knight: Leave him. He probably committed some crime and thinks we're undercover cops or something.

[Knight turns his attention towards the fallen "Sky God."]

Knight: Some god you are.

(Sora gets up and gets mad at Knight)

Sora- I-I-I am a god, I'm just.....I'm just.....

Hiroaki- A Demi-god?

Sora- GAH! Yeah, that's why mortals can hurt me, but my injuries heal faster...

(Sora sulks)

(Split dashes after the figure, then drags me back again)

Split: Let's see who's really under that hood!

(She yanks the hood off, which reveals a dark grey hedgehog with blood red eyes)

Split: Dusk?!? Why were you running?!?

Dusk: I heard about the kidnapping. And since I can't go into the sunlight without my robes, I ran. I knew you would suspect me of something. And I think it's best if my secrets are KEPT SECRET!! I'd not die in the sunlight. That's also why I didn't pull my hood off. And I insulted them because I don't trust anyone who doesn't trust me.

Sora- ..........Are you here about the strange events here?

(Sora gets up)

Sora- The demons here have been acting strangly... The ones I know are innocent, however, they have become violent for some reason... And they keep repeating, 'The Master of Mischeif is among us...'!

(Sora turns to Dusk)

Sora- Also I'm friends with the one who was kidnapped, her name is Nora, does that ring any bells.... Dusk?

Dusk: Yes...I know her. Nora Kouba right? The one that has silver-grey hair? Yeah...We've been on a few adventures...

Sora- I've been wanting to save her, but I must help this forest first! Even if I'm a half-god, I can still be bounded by duty!

(Sora points to the North)

Sora- The River Village, is that way, it is guarded by a Nue, he remains to be the only demon that isn't effected by this strange curse...

(Sora starts walking away)

Sora- If you need any clues about your friend, I have a feeling her kidnapping is connected to the strange things happening here... I must go and calm down some demons, if a demon cannot calm down, then there is only one way to stop their rage... Kill them...

(Sora vanishes in a mist)

Hiroaki- Master of Mischeif? Wait! He doesn't mean....

(In a Castle somewhere)

Nora- LOKI!

(Nora pointing at a purple and black hedgehog, her hand was unsteady and shaking...)

Loki- Bah! If you're thinking I'm the Loki before, you're a fool!

Nora- But, the Crystaliza Lazer should've...

Loki- It only removed the darkness in the Loki you know, and that darkness has gave birth to me! The true Loki!

(Nora sits down and crosses her arms)

Nora- Well, what are you wanting from me?!

(Loki started smirking, then bursted into a laugh)

Loki- You know, the light that powers those lazers!

Nora- Huh? Chaos Purification?

Loki- If that's what you call it, yes...

Nora- So, what does a God of Mischeif want light?

Loki- You'll know in time... heh heh heh

Chapter 3: The Strange Miasma
(At the gates of The River Village)

Hiroaki- Uh... Behind this gate is the village Sora talked about...

Dusk: Right. Sooo...Do we go in? Or do we find that so-called...nue. Whatever that is...

(two cloaked figures are seen watching from the shadows)

Hiroaki- HEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

(A young looking boy appeared and jumped over the large gate)

Arthur- What do you want from this place, and I'm not talking to you two......

(Arthur notices the two cloaked figures)

Summer: *hisses* Great, another mess you got us into!

Alex: This was your idea!

Arthur- Almost nothing can hide from me, for I'm the one who can hide anything!

(At a closer examination, the boy has white hair and blue markings under his eyes, his eyes are a voilet and they don't look human...)

(Split comes out from my robes)

Dusk: So you snuck with us anyways.

Split: Yep! ^_^

(Summer pulls down his hood, revealing a black hedgehog. Alex does the same and reveals a white hedgehog with glowing rainbow markings)

(Arthur crosses his arms and smiles)

Arthur- Phew... I thought you were demons for a sec, then again, your scent didn't match any I know... *turns towards dusk and Hiroaki* I got the news from Sora, you wanting to see me?Ale

Alex: Should we leave?

Summer: No. Light and darkness is off-balanced here. Remember?

Alex: Yeah, but we have things to do....

Summer: We don't. C'mon, le't go with them.

(Summer walks over to the group with Alex lagging behind)

Dusk: We were told you could help us. Our friend Nora got kidnapped.

(Split's staring into Arthur's eyes)

Split: (His eyes are demon-like. He can't be human.)

Summer: See? I think we have our light.

Alex: If you say so.

Summer: My name's Summer.

Alex: I'm Alex. (I don't trust any of you.)

Arthur- Nora? The star-light haired flower? Sora left out that part...

(Arthur goes into a thoughtful pose)

Arthur- Well, I need your help... You see, there's a strange curse flying around here in Hayashi... And demons have been acting strange, like the Shadow fairy that lives in the deeper parts, she's nocturnal however, she's been spotted during daylight... I asked her why she is awake at day, she just keeps saying... "The Master of Mischeif is among us..." It sounds like something a person would be saying if they were cursed...

(Arthur soon got worried)

Arthur- And my friend Kazuki... He disappeared a few days ago before this curse started happening... And I'm worried for him...

(Arthur seems stressed as he brushed his bangs back)

Summer: And now our darkness.

(Summer clears his throat)

Summer: If it is ok with you, we would like to help you on your journey.

Dusk: Gladly.

Split: Kazuki? Who's that?

Summer: See Alex? Nothing to be worried about.

(Arthur turns to Split)

Arthur- Kazuki is a young demon child that disguises himself as a young hedgehog, he is a Tsuchigumo...

Hiroaki- Wait! You don't mean the miasma spider Tsuchigumo?!

Arthur- Yes, but don't worry, he's more afraid of you then you're afraid of him, however he still can manipulate miasma...

Knight: I'm afraid I'm not fully aware of what this "miasma" is.

Dusk: I read something about it. Apparently it's a mist-like poisonous fog...It can cause diseases and illness in even the most immune creature.

Split: O_O D-D-Did you say.......S-S-SPIDER?!?

[Knight slaps Split.]

Knight: Don't throw a hissy fit, they're just bugs. Wait...poisonous fog? Alright, continue the hissy fit.

Arthur- Yes, but this spider won't harm you infact... He's been missing, right before the curse...

(Arthur thinks for a moment)

Arthur- Could it be possible... Hmm, we need to go into the deeper parts of the forest, I have a feeling Kazuki is in danger, infact, I think someone can end up killing him at this rate!

Knight: Then we should hurry up then.

[Knight continues off into the deeper parts of the forest.]

Dusk: Lay off Knight. She's only 8.

(Split climbs onto his shoulders and Dusk follows Knight)

Split: Thanks for the ride Dusky.

Dusk: Yeah yeah...

(Arthur and Hiroaki followed)

'Summer': Huh......Alex, I think something's even more wrong with this world than we know.

(Summer and Alex walk off after the group)

(Arthur stops)

Arthur- Hold it!

(Arthur stopped everyone at a deep raging river)

Arthur- We have to somehow cross this river.. But it's too deep and strong...

(Hiroaki looks at everyone, then starts backing away slowly)

Summer: Alex, work your magic.

(Alex takes out a small notebook)

Hiroaki-(As long as they don't use me, anything else is okay...)

Knight: So he's probably gonna make some bridge appear out of nowhere...right?

(Arthur crosses his arms)

Arthur- If they can't, I can make one...

Dusk: I can fly only 3 people across at a time. So, if anyone wants to get over there fast, better hurry up...Split can't swim so she takes one spot. I can carry 2 more.

(Dusk spreads his wings)

(Arthur sighs)

Arthur- Well, other things will be moving about here, so I might as well make a bridge...

(Arthur walks up to a tall tree)

Arthur- Here we go!

(Arthur grabbed both sides of the tree's trunk and started pulling)

Arthur- Gigh, ugh, rrrrr.......

(The tree starts uprooting)

Arthur- RRAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!

(Arthur lifted the tree out of it's place and tossed over the river creating a bridge)

Arthur- *pant* *pant* Well, that should do it...

(Alex crosses his arms)

Alex: I could have done that just as well!

Summer: You need to use your powers faster then.

(Dusk shrugs and folds wings, then walks across the tree, steps down on the other side and waits)

(Split sniffs, then looks around)

Split: You guys smell that?

(Summer sniffs the air and shakes his head. Alex sniffs the air and covers his nose)

Alex: Ugh, that smells terrible!

Summer: Oh, yeah, you have a sensitive nose.

Arthur- *sniff* Wait a minute.... That smells like...

(Arthur looks around)

Arthur- A purple sky? WAIT! MIASMA?!

(Arthur covered his mouth)

Hiroaki- I don't feel good...

(Hiroaki falls down to the ground, Arthur runs up to him)

Arthur- He has a fever! He must have taken in too much, someone give me some of those leaves over there!

(Arthur points to a bush with long blue-greenish leaves)\

(Summer starts to run over to the bushes, but seemingly out of nowhere, a cloaked figure appears)

Summer: Who are you?!

(The cloaked figure says nothing and summons two energy blades)

Arthur- Summer! Watch out!

(Summer barely dodges the blades and summons a blade that is all black)

Summer: Those weapons are Legendary Lights! If one hits you, it'll send you into eternal sleep!

Arthur- I can't leave Hiroaki, I'll have to hide...

(After a flash Arthur and Hiroaki disappeared into thin air)

Summer: Heh! This'll be fun!

(The mysterious figure and Summer begin to fight, but the mysterious figure has an advantage with lightning speed)

Split: Dusk...PLEASE tell me you picked herbs...

Dusk: Yeah, why?

Split: Good. Did you pick those leaves?

Dusk: Yeah.

Split: Good!

(Split takes them)

Split: Now...GO HELP HIM!!

Dusk: Right!

(Split teleports, while Dusk disappears, then reappears behind figure)

Dusk: PEEKABOO!

(Dusk starts choking the figure from behind)

(The figure disappears and reappears out of Dusk's grasp and starts assulting him with the Legendary Lights)

(Dusk dodges them with ease)

*Meanwhile, with Hiroaki and Arthur*

Split: Arthur, I have the leaves!!

(The mysterious figure jumps back and his Legendary Lights disappear. He crosses his arms and vanishes again)

Dusk: I thought so...You okay Summer?

Summer: Yes. Legendary Lights are only obtained by those who ARE darkness, not those who just wield it. I'm afraid he's after the light too.... ALEX! WHY DIDN'T YOU HELP!

Alex: I'm not good at fighting.....

Summer: Could have at least slowed down time or something.....

Dusk: Well...That's just great...

Summer: Yeah, fantastic. Now we have an almost-god of darkness who wants our heads and the light to be smothered out. What could be better than THAT?!

(Arthur and Hiroaki appeared out of no where)

Arthur- Thanks Dusk, and, I never lefted this spot, being a nue, I have the ability to hide one-self, and being me, I can hide others as well! That's how I protect the village, I hide it so it merely looks like another clearing...

(Arthur wraps a leaf around Hiroaki's mouth)

Arthur- These leaves are unique, they work like air purifiers, you should mask your mouths with them if I were you, even a poweful creature may fall ill to miasma if exposed long enough...

(Hiroaki showed improvement quickly, but was still weak)

Arthur- It effect Hiroaki quickly because he's a mere child, yes he does have strange powers, but he is still a mortal child... He should be fine now, I'll carry him...

(Arthur lifts Hiroaki on his back)

Arthur- Hiroaki has such a weak body, maybe because he was practically sheltered his whole life...

Summer: I would say that Alex and I wouldn't be bothered by it, but this place is unusual, so I'm not taking any chances.

(Summer grabs two leaves adn hands one to Alex)

(Arthur points to the East)

Arthur- I see a faint flow of miasma, its coming from over there, this miasma is strange... It's filled with the scent of madness...

Summer: Then we know where we're going next.

(Split covers mouth with a leaf)

(Dusk just wads a small piece of cloth up and uses that instead)

Dusk: I ran out of leaves. I'll be fine for now.

(Summer seems distracted and is looking around)

Summer: I just know I've seen that figure somewhere....

(The purple smog starts to get thicker)

Arthur- This amount of miasma is amazing! I think we're almost there...

Alex: I can't shake the feeling something bad's about to happen...

(Dusk starts coughing harshly)

Split: Dusk? You okay?

Dusk: Yeah...

(He continues to cough, then drops to knees, eyes bloodshot)

Split: DUSK!!

Dusk: GO!! I'll be fine! You have to save the spider kid!!

Split: But-

Dusk: NOW!!

Summer: Ah ah ah.....

(Summer pulls a leaf out of his pocket)

Summer: I thought this was going to happen.

Split: I'll make a potion.

(She puts the leaf over my mouth, then creates a potion using herbs from my satchel)

Summer: You know what I didn't get? Why you didn't just walk the five feet to the bush and pick another leaf, but hey, that's just my opinion...

( deeper in the forest..)

Nightfall: *appears out of nowhere and is immediately affected by the forest's curse. it turns him into Corrupt Nightfall and he flies off.*

Summer: What?! Darkness just went up tenfold just now!!!

(Summer runs deeper into the forest)

Alex: Summer!!!

(loud roaring(corrupt Nightfall) is heard in the distance)

Summer: Found you!

(Mysterious figure appears again)

Summer: No, no, no!!!! Not now!!!!!

(Arthur starts looking pale)

Arthur- This... miasma.... is stronger then I thought... I don't know.... if I can... make it....... Because, I'm a demon too... This miasma might effect me... I don't know if I can keep my will....

(Arthur falls down Hiroaki wakes up)

Hiroaki- Arthur?

(Hiroaki keeps shaking Arthur, but Arthur is silent and cold)

Arthur- Ngh... Sorry, I just... got faint for a moment... I'm okay...

(Arthur gets up, but he's a bit shakey)

(Summer dodges another swipe from the figure)

Summer: Does he ever get tired?!?

Split: I have only enough for 4 potions...

(Split hands one to me, and one to Arthur)

Split: If you want to live, I suggest you drink it Arthur.

(Summer throws his blade at the figure when suddenly time in his area reverses)

Summer: Ohhh, snap. He's got time on his side.

(Summer runs)

Arthur- I'm okay... I've been around many years, I can handle some simple miasma...

Split: No! Drink it! I don't want to be dragging you the whole way!

Arthur- Fine but....

(Arthur seems a bit weary)

Arthur- Does it have ocean water? Monkey, tiger, raccoon dog and/or snake remains? Or specks of silver and/or iron?

Alex: You're allergic to THAT MUCH STUFF?!

Arthur- Silver and Iron burns the skin of demons, it is poison for me to eat the flesh of the animals that make up mine, and ocean water will kill me like a arrow in the heart!

Split: No. Dusk has special water that origins from our realm. It's not like any other. There are no remains, only herbs, and the bottle it's in is made of crystals.

Arthur- ....fine...

(Arthur drinks the potion in distaste)

Arthur- Okay, we must continue...

(Somewhere in a giant castle)

(Nora starts playing her guitar)

Loki- Would you stop playing that!

Nora- Would you stop being boring? Just occuping myself till my utter doom...

(Nora was acting sarcastic)

Loki- Hmph, well, I got something to do, a few people are trying meddle with my plans!

(Loki walks off)

(After a long silence, Nora starts playing again)

Chapter 4: Kazuki Unleashed
(The group started entering a forest clearing)

Arthur- Huh... I don't remeber this being here...

Dusk: I smell trouble.

Hiroaki- Look!

(Hiroaki points towards a giant flower in the centre of the clearing)

Arthur- What the? HEY!

(Arthur spots a young white hedgehog with yellow markings and white clothing on top of the flower, miasma seems to be spewing out from his mouth)

Arthur- KAZUKI!

Hiroaki- He's the one behind the madness inducing plague?

Arthur- But Kazuki wouldn't do that, look closer!

(Kazuki is lying down in pain, he is unconscience and seems to be suffering)

Arthur- Kazuki may have the power to fully manipulate Miasma, but his power is too weak to cause this, Kazuki himself has been cursed!

(the mysterious figure yet again appears above Kazuki)

Dusk: I've had enough with this, you creep!

(Dusk runs further into the clearing, and stops a few feet short of the flower)

Dusk: You gotta bone to pick with ANYONE, pick it with me! So get down here and fight like a man! Unless you're gonna cower up there all day!

(Mysterious figure says nothing and rises his blade over Kazuki's heart)

Corrupt Nightfall: *flies over the clearing and roars with savage fury. it spots the group and roars again, firing a darkfire ball at the clearing*

MF: Hmph. It's all over now...

(Mysterious figure slices the darkfire ball in half, making it go haywire and dissapate)

Corrupt Nightfall: *roars in fury. grabs Mysterious figure and throws him at Dusk*M

MF: Feisty, aren't we?

(MF teleports in front of Nightfall and casts a binding spell at him, restraining him)

Corrupt Nightfall: *roars again, this time in pain, and lands next to the flower*

MF: Much better prey than that other weakling!

Alex: STOP!!!

( Alex jumps at MF with his sword in hand, and gets impaled- twice.)

MF: Ahhh, the heart of a Soulwriter...... very interesting.....

Corrupt Nightfall: *roars*

(MF stomps on Nightfall's head, silencing him)

Corrupt Nightfall: ( unconcious) *changes back to normal.*

(Alex squirms in pain on the swords)

(All of a sudden a black cloaked being appeared)

Hiroaki- It's, the guy that kidnapped Nora!

(The cloaked being knocked away Corrupt Nightfall and the Mysterious Figure out of the way)

???- You annoying pests leave now! Or, I shall make the one you care about, hurt you!

(His voice was disorted and sounded like he's talking through metal)

(He made a strange black orb over Kazuki and shattered it, then he disappeared laughing)

Hiroaki- What the?

(All of a sudden Kazuki got up and jumped off the flower infront of everyone)

Arthur- Ka-Kazuki?

(Kazuki left out a childish giggle, then started laughing, he opened his eyes and they were blank)

Arthur- Wait, Kazuki is possessed...

(All of a sudden Kazuki's skin started cracking)

Arthur- He's breaking through his facade! This isn't good!

Hiroaki- F-facade?

Arthur- Yes, this is not his true form...

(Then in a blast of miasma, a 10ft tall monster appeared with 4 legs and 4 arms, it had a scorpian-like tail and it drooled a purple ooze, it's jaws clamped and he growled)

Arthur- That's not the true Kazuki either, it's black and purple, the true Kazuki is white and yellow...

(The beast slammed Arthur to the side, and growled)

Arthur- GAAH! What ever you do, do not let him sting you are bite you, the purple ooze is liquid miasma, it's so powerful it can take down a army of elephants!

(Kazuki roared and then started shooting miasma from his tail)

MF: Interesting.....

(MF disappears, and Alex falls down with his eyes closed)

Nightfall: *wakes up. looks around* what happened? *spots Kazuki* !

Dusk: Impressive, but I've seen bigger.

(Dusk approaches Kazuki)

Split: DUSK! What are you doing?!? Trying to make him mad?!?

Dusk: That's the plan. Hey spider-breath! I've seen some ugly creatures, but HOOOO-EE! YOU top the list! *makes a face at Kazuki*

Split: *covers her eyes* I can't watch...

Dusk: Hey, what is giant, ugly, has red eyes, blue claws and 8 limbs?

Split: What?

Dusk: This guy's momma! *bursts into laughter*

(Kazuki swallows Dusk whole)

Arthur- NO! You fool! None can survive a swallow of a tsuchigumo!

(Kazuki starts groaning and spits Dusk out in distaste)

Arthur- Even when possessed he's still a vegatarian...>_>;

Nightfall: *looks at the group then back at Kazuki* You guys need any help?

(Summer come s bolting out of the trees)

Summer: What'd I- HOLY CHEESE!!!

(Kazuki turns towards Summer and sprays web silk from his tail at him)

Nightfall: i think i should help. *fires chaos beam at Kazuki*

Summer: WHOA! *rolls out of the way just in time*

(something in Summer's head clicks)

Summer: HEY! SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE, JUST CALLED ME A GIRL! I'M A BOY, DANGIT!!!!

Arthur- Don't kill him! He's still my friend, we just need to get rid of that curse......Grrr....

(Arthur started stressing himself out, then all of a sudden his skin turned Jet-black, blue markings covered his body, tentacles sprouted from his head and his hands became claws)

Arthur- RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

(Arthur jumped and started trying to break off Kazuki's tail-tip)

('Kazuki roared in pain and slams Arthur into trees, but he wouldn't lose his grip)

Nightfall: *heard Arthur* got it!* hits Kazuki with a weaker chaos beam*(this is still Numbuh712. im just on a different computer right now.)

(Dusk gets up and brushes himself off)

Dusk: I'm back, baybeh.

Split: Great to know. Now...CAN YOU DO SOMETHING?!?

Dusk: Oh yeah...The spider kid...

(After one huge slam, Arthur let go and fell in pain, Kazuki's tail-end was broken, but not cracked off)

Kazuki- RRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGH!

Arthur- It's hard to work in this miasma.... huh?

(All of a sudden a large gust of wind hit and blew away all the miasma and then it stopped when the miasma disappeared)

Arthur- Huh? The air is clean now... Wait!

(On a cloud above was Sora who was looking down, then his cload disappeared and he fell down to the ground gracefully)

Sora- Use this! I got it from that mixed miko!

(Sora throws a piece of paper to Arthur)

Arthur- This is a powerful sealing amulet, if we place it on Kazuki's head, then we might be able to destory the curse!

(All of a sudden Kazuki whipped Arthur flinging the amulet in the air)

Dusk: This is why, it is always good to have wings.

(Dusk flies up and grabs the amulet, then tosses it to Split)

Dusk: Split, I'll distract him! Put the seal on his head!

(Dusk starts making faces at Kazuki)

(Split teleports to his back, then waits for Dusk's signal)

Nightfall: im not sure theres anything i can add at this point

Arthur- Ugh, I'm okay... ugh... when you place it on his head, say, "I repel the evil within thee"!.

Summer: You're not the only one, Nightfall.

Arthur- You two can tie him down, he has 8 limbs you know! It'll be hard for someone to put that amulet on his head!

Nightfall: i can do that. * magnetizes Kazuki's legs to the ground.*

(Summer uses darkness to ensnare Kazuki for extra safety)

Dusk: SPLIT! NOW!

Split: *places the amulet on his head* I repel the evil within thee!!

Summer: This better work....

(Kazuki stops still, as if turned to stone, then all of a sudden started making a screaching noise that almost sounded like screaming, then sparks of darkness started zapping and his body once again cracked then, in a blast of light, there was a voice of a young child....)

Voice- Thank.. you....

(Then the light disappeared and in it's place layed a little child, no older then 8, a hedgehog that was white streaked with yellow and wore pure white clothing', Arthur turned back into his humaniod form and ran towards the little boy)

Arthur- Kazuki! Kazuki! Are you okay?! SAY SOMETHING!?

Kazuki- Ngh... gah....

Arthur- Kazuki?

(Kazuki woke up and revealed demonic-looking yellow eyes, however, they were not threatning)

Kazuki- A..Arthur? Where am I? What happened? I feel so sore....

Arthur- It's okay Kazuki, it's okay...

(Arthur held Kazuki like a little brother, so releaved for the child's safety)

Split: O_O W-what's with his eyes?!?

Dusk: You mean his demon eyes?

Split: H-H-HE'S A SPIDER....DEMON?!? *faints*

(Dusk just snickers)

Kazuki- I... I don't feel too good....

(Kazuki then vomited a purple and white ooze)

Arthur- You may not want to touch that stuff...

(Somewhere in a castle)

Nora- ............

(Loki turns around and sees Nora in a certian pose)

Loki- What are you doing?

Nora- Praying

Loki- To what? God? Ha! I'm the only real god here!

Nora- No you are not, you are a creation from another world, you are not the god of here...

Loki- All the gods here do not exist, I am the true god!

(Loki turns around in pride)

Nora- .......Atheist....

Loki- What you say!?

Chapter 5: The Fairy of Crystal Prisms
(In the river village)

(Kazuki and Arthur stood side-by-side, while Sora floated on a cloud)

Arthur- Thank you so much for helping our forest!

Kazuki- I'm very sorry that I caused so much pain, sorry...

Arthur- It's not your fault Kazuki, you were being manipulated

Sora- Speaking of which I got some info from the god realm, some outsider god has entered this world...

(Hiroaki got confused but worried)

Sora- Some god from another world entered here, and is presently in a sub-world inside this world, so there is no possible entering execpt...

(Sora took out something glowing, and tossed it to Hiroaki)

Sora- Some lucky mortals have the abilty called "Chaos Control", that is a Chaos Emerald, it was found after Kazuki returned back to normal, you need to collect all 7 to reach Nora, but, it also means there are 6 other incidents out there being powered by them...

Arthur- But since they are scattered across the world, I asked help from someone...

Hiroaki- Who?

(All of a sudden a flash appeared and a human-looking child landed on Dusk from the sky)

Arthur- Meet Kimi Akarui, she's a fairy of crystals, she can sense crystal energies including powerful ones like Chaos Emeralds

(The fairy wore a white layered dress, she had blonde hair and purple eyes and matching crystal ribbon on her blue jacket, and a purple headband with a ribbon on it, she wore black shoes with long stockings, she had strange wings that appear to be made out of metal with different colored crystal prisms hanging from them, they don't seem capable of flight, but she can fly and move them)

Kimi- HI! I was given reason to leave the forest, I can help!

Nightfall: wait! you guys need chaos emeralds and someone who can use them right? well heres an emerald, *pulls out the white chaos emerald* and i can use them.

Dusk: Nice to meet you. Now please get off.

Kimi- Ze~!

(Kimi gets off, her wings slowly flapping in content)

Kimi- Hmmmm....

(Kimi starts stressing herself and her prisms are glowing, then she stops with a smile)

Kimi- I see another in a city!

(Arthur just remembered something and took out a newspaper and gave it to Hiroaki)

Arthur- Read it

Hiroaki- Metal City Plant Plague? Metal City has been taken over by various plants, destorying roads, buildings and even harming people. Others have described a black anthro with green markings seen before a sudden break out in plants, this puts police and investigators in a huge puzzlement!

Kimi- I sense a pretty green emerald in a City covered in plants! ^w^

Nightfall: can you sense the pretty white emerald im holding?

Dusk: *gets up* You're just lucky you didn't land on my spines...(mumbles) Little bug...

Split: Don't mind Dusk, Kimi...He's acually really nice...Sometimes...

(Summer looks at everyone like they're crazy)

Summer: Wait, can't anyone with the power to channel energy use Chaos Control? And, this may sound crazy...

(Summer takes out a pulsing orange Pure Emerald)

Summer: From my experience, there's 8 Chaos Emeralds. I made this one myself! Weird, huh?

Kimi- I can't channel Chaos, I can hear crystals, but you can't because they talk in little voice, but everybody can hear a Chaos Emerald because they SCREAM!!!

(Kimi starts yelling and running around childishly)

Arthur- Sorry, you're just going to have to put up with her, she's a fairy, she acts like the age she apears... and she looks like she's 5 or 6, but she is rather smart, just childish so it's rather hard to understand her. I'm going to say here, I wish you luck!

(Kimi goes into relization)

Kimi- I'm not a bug! I'm almost as tall you! (Kimi's metal wings start flapping agressivly)

Summer: Hmm.... *looks closer at the emerald*

(The Mysterious figure comes out of nowhere and taps Summer's neck with his sword)

Summer: Ugh.... *falls)

(The mysterious figure grabs my body and holds up the Pure Emerald, teleporting them away*

Dusk: Whatever...You're still "BUGGING" me. *laughs*

Split: *rolls eyes* Ugh...Sorry, Kimi. He's not too keen on fairies. But he is nice. He's just annoyed that you fell on him.

Alex: Nobody notice d that I got stabbed, and Summer just got kidnapped with a PURE Emerald?

Nightfall:and nobody noticed that im still holding MY chaos emerald.

(Kimi jumps on Dusk's head and goes into a pose)

Kimi- Lets go save Summer! And I knew you had a chaos emerald from the start!

Dusk: (Mumbling to self, which is ineligible to everyone else, then starts walking)

(ELSEWHERE!!)

(Summer wakes up)

Summer: Ugh....where are we...?

MF: You feed off of the dreams of that seedrian, don't you?

Summer: What's it to you? Does it matter if I'm a Dream/Animal hybrid?

MF: Only that you are her Dream Guardian. You will tell me where she is.

Summer: Not. A. CHANCE!

Dusk: Split, you're a psychic. Tell us where Summer is.

Split: *points to an abandoned building* In there.

Dusk: Oh. Well that was easy.

(a beam of light bursts out of the building, symbolizing the fight inside)

Kimi- I'll break down the door! 0w0

(Kimi lifts up a great tree easier and faster then Arthur did and hunched on her shoulder)

Kimi- BREAK DOWN!

(Kimi heads straight towards the door using the tree as a battering ram and easily broke the doors down, including what was around it...)

MF: Hmph!

(MF takes the Pure Emerald and teleports away)

(Kimi hanging from the tree in the wall)

Kimi- Did we get 'em?

Summer: If you guys hadn't broken down the door, I wouldn't have hesitated, not allowing him to extract Nora's location from my mind!

Dusk: *facepalm* Ugh....

Split: Nice try Kimi...Right Dusk?

Dusk: Excuse me a moment.

(Dusk steps outside, then everyone hears him cursing up a storm)

Nightfall:* steps away from the group. pressing a button on a headset he's wearing* yes Moonrise?................. good. commence phaze 6.*turns off headset. walks back to the group*

Summer: No..... I've failed as Nora's Dream Guardian....

(Summer pulls on his quills)

Summer: And now she's gonna die because of my mistake........

nightfall:Summer, dont worry. we'll find her. and i'll take care of L--uh.... whoever captured her, myself.

Nightfall:*walks away again. hits the button on his headset.* ...............well that's no good. i guess we'll just have to skip straight to phaze 7. *turns off headset*

Nightfall:*recieves a call on his headset* yes Lightbane?.................is Matthias nearby?................go ahead.

Nightfall:*recieves another call* im there! sorry guys i gotta go. *chaos controls back to Two Worlds, One Love*

Kimi- Don't underestimate a god! *Kimi shook her finger*

Kimi- And Nora has been kidnapped by one! As told to me by Sora!

Split: Geez, Dusk must be really mad. He's still going on out there.

Summer: I'm suprised I'm not doing the same. Hiroaki, you've been quiet this whole time. Is something wrong?

Hiroaki- Huh? Oh, sorry, I just, had alot on my mind lately....

Hiroaki-(When should I tell them? Maybe I shouldn't, it might cause a problem....)

Summer: Hiroaki, I know that something's wrong. I've known you your whole life.

Dusk: *walks in* Okay....whew....I'm calm now.

Hiroaki- Well, if you know me all my life, then you should already know....

Summer: Well, there could be many things you could have on your mind. I want to know which one.

Hiroaki- Well, you know.. my... mother and......(mummbles)

Summer: Oh........would you rather not talk about it?

Hiroaki- I just don't know if I should tell everyone that I'm...... (mummbles)

(Hiroaki seems so nervous he speaks in a whisper)

Kimi- Ze~? Why is it so hard to tell, everyone should know Prince Hiroaki of Daichi no Mizu~ *MMPH*

(Hiroaki silences Kimi, but was too late)

Summer: Hm? So? I'll kill anyone who comes near him with the wrong intentions. Because.....you know, the whole....I'm gonna stop talking now.

Split: That's not much of a suprise...Dusky's a prince too. And he happens to disappear at midni- *MMPH*

Dusk: *covering her mouth* Ah.....What an imagination! Now...Can we search for Nora?

Summer: Not much of a point to go all around the world searching for all 7 Chaos emeralds......

(Summer pulls out a dark green Pure Emerald)

Summer: When you've got all the means to go there right now. He took one, I still have Alex's.

(Kimi gets out of Hiroaki's grip)

Kimi- To the city, Ze~!

(In a castle somewhere)

Loki- Darn it, looks like my take over in the forest didn't go as planned...

Nora- Dude, chill... You're going to lose you know!

Loki- Foolish Girl, I have another in planned

(Loki reveals a image of a hedgehog dress in a cape of leafs and has glowing green markings)

Nora- A life project from your world?

Loki- Life Project: 26, Codenamed: Leaf, manipulator of vegatation... Being a failed project, he was easy to control...

Nora- Hmph...

Chapter 6: The Plant Plague
(In Metal City)

Kimi- I hear a emerald nearby!

(Kimi flapped her metal wings in joy)

Summer: If you call nearby all the way up there!

(Summer points to a tower of vines, which a small green glow can be seen at the top)

Kimi- Fufufufu! Not a problem, even though these plants are abnormal, I don't even think they're real! However, they're still a type of plant!

(Hiroaki looks down)

Kimi- Ze~...? What's wrong Hiroaki?

Hiroaki- The fact I'm a prince isn't the thing I was worrying about...

(All of a sudden a piece of paper flew by at Kimi)

Kimi- Ze~?! A wanted poster? For Hiroaki? "Wanted: Runaway Prince Hiroaki of Daichi no Mizu, the 10th Generation of the Water Kingdom DaichiMizu. Wanted by Queen Akane Daichi no Mizu, reward is $100,000,000 for whoever finds and retrieves him"

Hiroaki- That darn women, hasn't she cause enough pain to me?!

Summer: This is why I stopped talking.

(Summer grabs the poster out of the air and burns it away with darkfire*

Summer: No one will get you with these intentions, Hiroaki. I swear.

Dusk: But we need to find a way to conceal him. I'd rather avoid a battle. It'll slow us down.

Split: Oh! He can wear my robe! *pulls out a black robe, similar to Dusk's* I don't need it, since I can walk in the sun.

Dusk: Good thinking. Meanwhile, I get the emerald.

(He spreads wings, then starts to accend the mountain, while Split puts her robes around Hiroaki*

Split: Don't worry. The robe is clean. *smiles*

(Kimi flies towards the plant covered building)

Kimi- Huh?

(All of a sudden a burst of vines started blasting towards Kimi like harpoons)

Split: *tackles her out of the way* Careful Kimi! These vines seem dangerous.

Summer: Permission to go all stabby?

(Summer's sword materializes in his hand)

Split: Anything to buy Dusk some time! Look! *points up at Dusk*

(Dusk is still flying up the tower, but being chased by monsterous vines)

(All of a sudden a person cloaked in large leafs appeared and plants and vines surronds him and takes on the form of a giant monster, the chaos emerald was glowing from deep inside)

Kimi- Plant Monster!

(Kimi zooms to help Dusk)

Nightfall: *reappears* hey guys. sorry i ditched earlier. what'd i miss? (sees plant monster) oh. that's what.

Dusk: SPLIT! We need to get that Chaos Emerald! We need to use the Fox Bullet attack!

Split: But Dusk! We haven't perfected it yet!

Dusk: JUST DO IT!

(Split sighs, then flies up to meet Dusk, then Dusk grabs her by her shirt collar and spins at mach speeds, then releases her)

(Split turns into a fiery bullet as she plunges into the giant monster's chest)

(Split soon got caught by vines, but she saw what was infront of her)

(There was a anthro, he had no real type of animal breed, he had glowing markings, vines were connecting to his back, however, he was crying)

Leaf- H....elp....... Me........

(The chaos emerald was glowing above him)

Split: *gasps* Not another one...*nods* Just stay there! I'm coming! *burns through the vines*

(She crawls over to him, then grabs the emerald, and cuts the vines protruding from his back, then grabs him and flies out of the monster)

(The giant plant formation then started falling apart and fell down to the ground)

Split: It's okay...I got you. *gently lowers them to the ground* Whoever kidnapped Nora, he's forcing people to fight for him...*looks at his markings* I don't think he's like us...Excuse me...What's your name?

Leaf- I am.... Life Project: 26, but the proffessor calls me Leaf... I was created, for the manipulation of vegation... however... I was not a successful creation... A being... beyond the laws of science... captured me.... knowing.... he can control.... me... the emerald.... possess.... power.......

(Leaf sounded tired and sad)

Dusk: Well, that's handy! How about some REAL answers?!?

Split: Back off Dusk!! He needs to rest...I know things haven't gone exactly as planned, but you can't take it out on everyone! Listen...Leaf...We'll go find a hotel, or a place to stay for a bit. We'll rest, and you can tell us more in the morning.

Rapid: *hiding* ...

Nightfall:*senses a familiar magnetic field nearby* not again...*sigh. turns to follow the others, keeping his mind on the field*

Leaf- I... don't.... want to be..... locked away..... again.....

(Tears started falling from Leaf's eyes)

Nightfall: *feels bad for Leaf but tries to keep his focus on the magnetic field*

Split: You won't be! You can stay with us for now. *smiles* I'm sure Nora will help when we rescue her. But in the meantime, you can stick with us. We'll protect you.

Dusk: *growls* (Why isn't he attcking us?!?) *looks into the skies* HEY!! I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME YA JERK! WHY DON'T YOU COME OUT HERE AND FIGHT LIKE A MAN?!? COME ON!! I'M WAITING!

Split: Dusk! Stop. I think we should lay low for awhile. We need to rest. Let's go find an inn, or a hotel. Anywhere where we're safe.

Nightfall: i agree with Split. we should rest and continue on in the morning.

(Leaf grabs Split's clothes)

Leaf- You don't understand! You don't understand! I'm a failure! The proffessor locked me away! I'm a failed experiment! I was sealed to pervent chaos! I don't want to go back! I'm a failed project!

(Leaf's inhuman-eyes were filled with a confusion of emotions that it was hard to tell if he was mad, sad, or scared)

Summer: If there's one thing I'M noticing, it's that something isn't exactly right...... If he can manipulate vegetation, why don't we bring him to the forest? He'll be free there.

Split: Okay, FIRST OF ALL, let go of my clothes. Second of all, if it's that much of a bother to you, you can live in the forest, like Summer said. They won't find you there, and you can be as free as you want.

Summer: Whoa, someone actually agreed with my idea? That's a first.....

Leaf- No..... no... (Leaf whispered as he slowely lets go of Split)

Leaf- I... don't belong in this world.... I am... dieing.... I must return to my world.... I need the light....

(Hiroaki just jumped after hearing Leaf)

Hiroaki- Wait, he's a Life Project, they're creatures from another world as Nora told me, another world that relies on the energy of this world, they go through several phases until the energy becomes the life-force for all things, Leaf is from that world and relies on that energy. If he stays in this world without a energy link... He'll die... All living things give off this energy, if someone allows their inner energy to flow into Leaf, he'll survive, but also means he cannot travel far from you...

Dusk: I would, but I know too much for someone to be following me.

Split: *thinking* I'll do it.

(Dusk seems panicked, then grins at them, and pulls her aside)

Dusk: *speaking in Alyied* Are you crazy?!? We can't have an Amazinan in Xenonia!

Split: *speaking in Alyied as well* Dusk, he's dying! What are we supposed to do?!?

Hiroaki- What in the world are they saying?

Leaf- Another of my.... fellow kin has... also been taken.... he's... a failed... project... too.....................

Dusk: *still speaking in Alyied* Listen Split...It's bad enough that we got sidetracked. AGAIN. But I don't need some weird plant walking around you 24/7!

Split: *still speaking in Alyied* Dusk, I have to! You know how much I care for people! Unless someone else volunteers, I will!

Hiroaki- Uh oh...

(Hiroaki pointed at Leaf's markings which seem to be fading)

Hiroaki- I was told that if a Life Project's markings stop glowing, they either lost their power... or they're dying...

Split: *speaks noramlly now* DUSK!

Dusk: Ugh. Fine.

(Split runs over)

Split: I'll give you my energy.

Hiroaki- It won't happen instantly, for a link to happen you must be around him for a while till his body starts taking the energy...

Split: *nods* Okay. *sits beside Leaf and waits patiently*

Dusk: We don't have time! Every minute we waste is another minute that Nora might be dead! I'm going on without you. *takes the 3 emeralds*

(Soon Leaf's markings started glowing back he started breathing normally again)

(Kimi jumped in Dusk's way, her usual peppy face has become dark and serious)

Kimi- Don't. Take. The. Emeralds...

(Her voice was serious and intimidating)

Dusk: WATCH ME.

(Dusk lets go of the emeralds, which float a circle around him)

(The emeralds glow and a bright flash of light appears, and when it fades Dusk and the emeralds are gone)

Split: *sighs* At least Leaf is getting better...Kimi, do you know where he went?

Nightfall: *shaking with rage* i know exactly where he went.

(All of a sudden Leaf's eyes opened and he got up quickly)

Leaf- That monster who kidnapped me took Life Project: 10, too.....

Nightfall: i've worked hard to find that emerald. then he just takes it? just like that? no! unacceptable! i will find him. he cannot hide! *teleports to Dusk* Give. Me. Back. My. EMERALD!

Dusk: *throws him the emerald* It's useless anyway. Take them all...I can teleport...*throws him the other 2, then teleports*

Splti: Hmm? Life Project 10? Who's that?

Nightfall: ....uh, thanks? [teleports back to the others]

Leaf- Life Project: 10, or Codenamed: Cupid, has been taken, he is possibly being manipulated with a emerald as we speak... He was created to increase intrest in another kin of the opposite sex...

Hiroaki- A.K.A. Make someone fall in love with another

Leaf- Correct, but he was a failed project as well, due to somehow hacking his abilties and caused him to create great intrest of a kin of the same gender of others....

Hiroaki- O_O

(Summer gets hit in the head with a paper airplane)

Summer Aw, what the? (Summer unfolds the paper airplane) Festival of Wishes, held in Spagonia..... featuring prize exhibit, purple Chaos Emerald.... Uh... that was.... a bit obvious....

???: *a hedgehog with a black hoodie is running but runs into Summer*

(Summer elbows the hedgehog)

Summer: Watch where you're going! Be glad that I don't carry a wallet or you wouldn't be walking!

(Summer pats his pockets and pulls out a peculiar purple crystal, but quickly puts it away after seeing he still had it)

Nightfall: *looks over at Summer. notices the paper* what's that? *reads it*

Summer: I thought this journey might take us weird places, but of all things, a CARNIVAL?!

Nightfall; no. that's too obvious. i smell a trap.

Summer: Too obvious or not, I'm not letting Dusk get all the emeralds first. He doesn't know it, luckily, but you do need all 7 Chaos Emeralds to get into that world. We've got a handy head start, but not a big one, unfortunately. I say spring the trap and save LP: 10. I mean, a god of love, if pink wasn't a choice, would gravitate to purple, right?

Nightfall: i agree. all im saying is that we must not let our guard down for a second on the way there, while there, or until we're well away from it. Leaf said this guy can make you fall in love right?

Summer: Love is also a form of dream, so I'm immune to it. I've only felt it once and..... Never mind. Don't worry, I think that...... eh, nope, we're all screwed. There's a whole bunch of boys and 2 girls. This guy's gonna have a dang field day with us if we let our guard down.

Nightfall; i can help here as well. my cold, uncaring attitude makes me nearly impervious to any form of emotion. the two of us can act as living shields for the others.

Summer: Nearly. I think, just to be safe, don't take any hits I can't block. If I can't block one spell, feel free to take a hit.

Nightfall: probably a good idea. which leaves the questions of how to get there and how we know he's near. both of which i can supply. i posses the ability chaos control as well as magnetic powers which allow me to sense the magnetic fields given off by all matter.

Summer: In the morning. It's getting dark, and the Creator knows I've seen some scary things through Nora's eyes. Plus, we're the only two who don't need sleep.... assuming you don't?

Nightfall: i do need to sleep. im much more plesant to be around when im well-rested.

Summer: One of the unique advantages of being a Dream species, not needing sleep...

Nightfall: i, however, despite being part of an ancient being, still need to sleep

Summer: Then go rest. I'll guard us well, alright? Don't stress yourself.

Nightfall: no problem. *goes to sleep against a tree*

Dusk: *in Xenonia* I'm just glad I brought the Spirit Crystals...These'll get me the emeralds faster. *teleports to Spagonia* It's obvious there would be one in Nora's hometown. *walks into the weird festival* What the?!? *notices two hedgehogs kissing*........Right. *continues, and continues to notice strange couples* Is, like, EVERYONE like this?!? *notices Cupid* Another Life Project?!? What does THIS one do?

(Summer begins to whisper names)

Summer: Nights, Reala, Jacki, Ventus, Aqua, Terra.... *tosses purple crystal up* I promised you, before you all died. *he catches it and the nearly invisible marks on his head glow a faint white* And I intend to keep this promise. Wishpower!

(In a blast of purple light, Summer appears next to Dusk)

Summer: Stay away from Cupid. I'm invincible to his power, but you aren't. Follow me, and stay out of sight.

Dusk: I'm better off on my own. I'll heed your warning, but not your orders. *turns invisible, then sneaks past Cupid* (Too easy...I don't understand what my younger bro is getting all uptight about. He looks harmless.)

Summer: *bites inside of cheek* Dream and Nightmare. I never understood our differences. But younger brother means tormentor, and occaisonally I need to let him borrow some of my common sense. *puts up hood and turns invisible, following Dusk through the crowd*

Dusk: (I'm better off alone...Less dead weight. Now...wheres that emerald?) *notices a faint purple haze in the distance, then walks closer*

(The haze happened to be the purple Chaos Emerald)

Dusk: (No way...It's too easy. It's never this easy. Every time I get even remotely CLOSE to that thing, that creep appears, I'm stuck dealing with another lackey, I defeat him, but simultaneously waste MORE time, and get the emerald. Screw it, I'm just gonna "grab and go".)

(Dusk quickly runs over to the emerald)

(All of a sudden a 3 year-old looking child with white markings apeared over Dusk and then started making a arrow formed from psychic control)

(In a castle somewhere)

Loki- Ha ha ha! Why would the proffesser seal off such a prized creation?

Nora- Because it started making people fall in love with it by hypnosis...

(Nora was tired fighting with Loki and just kept at a relaxed pose)

Loki- And that's just what I want it to do! He might seem like a baby, but he's smarter then any of them!

Nora- And more corrupted!

Loki- Oh shut up! The dark one is falling into my plans, and yet he doesn't know it....

(Nora jumps up, her eyes widen with worry and she mouthed the word 'Dusk')

Chapter 7: The Grim power of Love
(At Spagonia)

Devin: Oh, where am I?

Dusk: O_O (Cupid...WAIT CUPID?!?) *looks at his arrow* Ohh.....crackers. *suddenly runs behind a huge crate and ducks for cover* I've heard that name before.

(Dusk takes out a small book and starts flipping through it, then stops at one page)

Dusk: *reading* Cupid, the roman god of love, has the power to make anyone fall in love with the opposite sex with his bow and arrow. *closes book* Well..if he's a failed experiment...O_O So THAT explains all the weird couples.

(Cupid starts floating of in search of Dusk)

Cupid- "I know you can hear me, I may lack speach vocaly, but I can communicate through telekinesis...."

(Cupid finds Dusk and greates a explosive ball of light)

Dusk: Here we go....*runs past him, then takes refuge in a large building*

(Cupid floats into the building)

Dusk: You can't catch what you can't see!

(Dusk turns invisible, then hides in another room)

(Cupid looks around and leaves back to the chaos emerald)

(Dusk peeks out the window)

Dusk: (I can't get at that emerald with that stupid fairy guarding it! I need a distraction.)

(Dusk clones himself, then sends the clone to distract Cupid)

(Cupid vanishes and teleports to the real Dusk)

Cupid- "All you natural creatures are foolish, I knew you were here, as a life project I can read your mind and sense your actions!"

Devin: What's going on here?

Dusk: God I hate that....

(Dusk suddenly runs off and goes for the emerald)

Nightfall: *wakes up.* huh? whered he go? *uses magnetic powers* he's out of range. but where...? O.O Spagonia! *holds up the emeralds* chaos... BOOST! *each emerald's aura surrounds him, sending his already incredible speed skyrocketing* i gotta help! *dashes off at top speed toward Spagonia.*

(Then bunch of people started surronding the emerald completely)

Cupid- "They all are under my control, because they all love me!"

(Echoes of Cupid laughing banged through-out the city)

Summer: *grasps his right arm* Ugh... Nora's worrying about Dusk! Well, I guess I go after Cupid, that creepy....there are many words for him, but that doesn't matter!

(Summer's marks start glowing again)

Summer: Please just remember a few, please.....

(Summer's marks fade)

Summer: Well, I have all of Dusk's current knowledge.... that's a start to combat styles.

Dusk: You have GOT TO BE JOKING. Ugh...Great. Now...I have a group of lovesick animals, a failed LP, no magicka, and no emeralds. Not only that, I haven't went to the restroom for 3 days. Excuse me. *runs into a building*

(long pause, followed by a flushing noise)

Dusk: *walks out* Now where were we? Oh yeah. Now I remember what I was gonna say. *starts cursing for a long time*

Summer: *is sitting cross-legged as he sorts through Dusk's memories* Uh...Split's 8th birthday... no, too far up.... Holy..... Wow, I'm glad I wasn't there for that... she drank 5 liters of Pepsi! Ah! Here we go!

(a blue screen appears in Summer's head)

Summer: WHAT!? Great... just great.

Dusk: *stops* Okay...Now...*looks at Cupid* Oh yeah. You like bows and arrows? Fine. *takes out a longbow and makes an arrow made of flames*

Summer: Ah, you know what, I'll just run in, guns ablazin'. Uhm, I mean swords a.....you know what, i'm just gonna do this the easy way. *runs in* YO GUYS! I'M JUST GONNA TAKE THIS EMERALD, M'KAY?

(Summer swipes the emerald and runs like heck)

Dusk: You even THINK of going near my younger bro, and this arrow will peirce you like a bullet. *pulls back on bow* You got me?

Summer: Thanks for having my back, bro. I've got just enough magicka to get us both to the camp. If you don't want to, take the emerald. You'll need it.

Dusk: I'm fine without them. I'm just distracting them. You need the emeralds more. Now GO!

Summer: *teleports the emerald to the camp and raises his sword into a attack stance* I won't leave you. Don't even try to make me go back.

Dusk: SUMMER. I'm the stronger of us. I'll distract these creeps while you grab the emeralds! You guys need to rescue Nora! If you know what's best, you will do as I say!

Summer: You seem to care sooo much about her. *grins evilly* I'm gonna make your life miserable now. *holds up a tape recorder* Hiroaki and Split are gonna be thrilled to hear this.

(Summer uses Wishpower with a grin)

Dusk: Oooh....*Growls* Summer, when I'm done here, you are SO DEAD!!

(Summer falls into the camp laughing like heck)

Nightfall: *senses Summer's field in the camp. stops and runs back* Summer!

Summer: *still laughing* Dusk....Emerald....Nora.....tape recorder! *holds up emerald and tape recorder*

Dusk: *teleports*

(Summer presses the playback button, and it says Dusk's phrase to Nightfall)

Nightfall; ............. did you forget about Cupid?

Dusk: *beats on Cupid with a cast iron frying pan*

Summer: Lets just say he doesn't need to be worried about.

Nightfall: ...........are you sure?

Summer: I trust in Dusk and his frying pan fighting.

Dusk: *beating on Cupid* I will teach you to respect your superiors!

Nightfall: once again........ are you sure? *feels a tug on his mind but ignores it*

Summer: Trust me. I know him better than you do.

Nightfall: i suppose you're ri-- AAAAAAAAHHHHH! * knocked to the ground by a seemingly random chaos beam. jumps up and spins, firing his own chaos beam*

[it strikes an invisible figure and knocks them to the ground. the impact shuts off the target's invisibility. three hedgehogs appear, one male, two female.]

NIghtfall: no! it can't be!

Female 1: ah, but it is!

Summer: *summons sword and covers himself in a protective shield of darkness* Who are you!?

Female 2:*jumps to her feet* i am Lumina the Hedgehog.

Male: Decibal the Hedgehog.

female 1: and Cera the Hedgehog.

Nightfall: they are my team's arch enemies. we've been fighting for ages.
