A Dangerous Encounter: Chapter 12

Some Galahs Do An Inky Mission: Prologue

Kaiso’s POV

Where…Am I?

What happened? What’s wrong with my hands?

No… Not again.

Some Galahs Go On an Inky Mission: Chapter 2

Third Person POV

Audra skipped happily. After a bit, a large explosion shook the ceiling, and a spider jumped down to the floor. It looked cute in Audra's eyes. She crouched down and reached out her hand, cooing:

"Oh, it's a little man! Oh, who's a little man?"

CHOMP!

The spider tried to eat Audra's hand. Her mouth went open in shock. It didn't just...bite her, did it?

Meanwhile, Alinta had found a Gent Pipe - on the other side of a fence. "Goddamnit, what do I -"

"IT'S AN ANGRY SPIDER!!! IT ATTACKED ME!!!" Audra yelped. Alinta inhaled, dragging a hand down her face.

"I'm going to demand a raise and some tolerance for this." Alinta muttered, storming off to go help Audra with the spider. As soon as she stepped into the wide hall, Alinta found a pure-black ink spider - which was clearly part of the Butcher Gang - and Audra using her control over air to keep herself as high as possible away from the spider. Alinta looked between the angry spider (who was trying to attack Alinta) and the scared Audra. Alinta sighed. "You didn't just kill the thing?" Alinta inquired.

"It was cute!" Audra insisted. Alinta growled silently, snapping her fingers and setting the ink spider to flames. Audra shouts, "NOOOOOOOOO!!!!"

"Deal with it." Alinta deadpanned. She walked off as Audra called her childish names.

But 16-24 minutes later...

"Who's There? Open up!"

CRASH! BANG!

"If I find you, I'm going to rip your face off!" A male voice shouted.

"I'd like to see you try." Alinta thought, growling at the far away threat. She had just grabbed the Gent Pipe, not even bothering to clear the ink in hopes of inkfecting her enemies. She gripped it tightly, almost making the Gent Pipe get crushed.

Meanwhile, Audra's arms were full of food, and she was approaching the Lost One. "Hello! Would you like a cracker? I kind of beat one of those ink things with the door and a few other inky things with a cougar to get the food." Audra said, holding out a cracker to the Lost One.

Her hopes were then blotted away.

The Lost One let out a primal shriek of rage and flew itself at Audra, raising its hands to swipe at the cracker-filled hand she held out. Quickly, Audra pulled her arm away and dropped her food, doing a triple backflip before landing on her feet. She turned her head and shouted, "THIS MAN ISN'T VERY NICE!"

When Alinta heard the shout, she ran to the kitchens and the other rooms with a fear and panic. When she finally found Audra, she was already fighting the Lost One. Alinta growled, her lemon-green eyes flashing a dark crimson red as she unconsciously lashed out at the Lost One and kicked him to the ground. Holding her foot above his head, Alinta hissed, "If I let you go, you will listen to me and Audra, otherwise I'll kill you. Do. You. Understand. Me?" The Lost One tried to attack again, but he ended up getting crushed by the tremendous strength of the angry, seething werewolf. A squishy, breaking sound could be heard from its skull.

Audra looks from the ink puddle to Alinta, then back again. "What? H-how? Wh-wh-why?" The young cougar stuttered.

Alinta rolled her eyes. "You'll understand when the time comes." She turned and walked to the kitchen. Audra followed timidly, watching as Alinta's eyes returned to their normally bright green color. Audra didn't even try to talk; it'll just make things worse when Alinta's in that state.

The ink puddles were ignored, since they weren't made of ink. They walked through the ink puddles just fine without any consequences. A Searcher punched the door, then turned into a puddle. When they opened the door, they found another Searcher punching the wall that said, "YOU DON'T HAVE TO KILL ME."

"Yes, we do." Audra said. Alinta turned into a wolf and ate the Searcher from behind. "That's gross." Audra whined.

"Shut up and let's go." Alinta barked, returning back to her humanoid form and walking off. Audra followed after her.

Alinta fainted as soon as she opened a metal door, revealing a few Lost Ones that already spotted the two teens. Alinta's eyes were glowing underneath.

Audra's POV

Nope. Not again. I'll take these down and send them back to where they came from. Uh...Where were they from, anyway? No matter, this'll be quick.

Kaiso's POV

I hope Alinta and Audra are doing well, but knowing them, they'll probably have already ignored both Alison and my warnings and gotten into trouble. They better not have done anything stupid.

"My ink swells and boils -" The Ink Demon started.

"Oh, shut up!" I hissed.

Alinta's POV

I'm in that dark place again. I can't see anything past the six feet in front of me. The only source of light is from me. Did I get a magic overdose? My body feels like it got stabbed by an arrow.

There's a girl who looks like me. She has a violet light emitting from her. Violet hair, nuclear eyes. I already hate her. She's got a corrupted aura that I don't like. She walks up to me, smirking like any typical, manipulative person would. She whispers, "Well, well, well, if it isn't the failed reincarnation of the famous Agent Phoenix. What brings you here?"

"Who are you? Why are you in my head?" I demand. My voice echoed through the headspace.

The girl chuckled. "Oh, I'm you, created by the hatred and negativity that you possess and feel. Why else would I be in your head?" She said darkly, her smile growing more wicked. She leaned over and whispered in my ear, "Yet I hear you have feelings for a certain someone~"

"I don't know what you're talking about!" I snapped.

"It's Audra, isn't it?"

Huh? "What?"

"Don't play dumb with me. I can hear - no, FEEL - how much you love her. You look at her as though she's a puppy in your eyes. You love her, don't you?"

"Y-You don't know anything!" I stuttered.

The dark version of me huffs. "Keep telling yourself that."

"...Why are you here?" I ask.

"Oh, I think we both know the answer to that." The girl sparked a spark of moonlight. "I'm the dark version of your moonlit powers, after all. As long as you live, I keep haunting both you and your little crush."

"Stay away from Audra!" I growl.

"Oh, I will, but the Lost Ones won't stay away from the two of you until you leave the universe." She whispered. She snapped her fingers, creating a vision of Audra fighting off the Lost Ones fiercely. Dark Alinta hissed, "If you want your precious little girlfriend to not get hurt, I can help you - at a price."

I look at the current situation that was out of my hands. I need to make a decision, and it's gotta be now. "Tell me what I need to do."

A Dangerous Encounter: Chapter 15

With how cloudy and dark this part of the desert is, Scylla was surprised to see even a sliver of the moonlight reflecting off her skin. But her curiosity was cut off as she heard the Soulless scampering toward an old city, which was in ruin ever since the apocalypse started. Realizing that she may have a lead to where Zielo and Sonic may be, Scylla lifted herself up, wincing as her body protested.

Scylla? Aite asked, scaring Scylla enough to have her jump and wince from the movement.

Aite, I thought I told you -

I know, I know, but we heard a scream a couple of hours earlier, and I wanted to make sure you were okay.

I'm fine Aite, I have a lead.

Remember, if you need help, you can always call the pack. Ok?

Fiiiiiiiiiine. But no promises. Scylla cut off her link.

Scylla starts to limp towards the empty city. At the most times she winced from her sore legs, she was in a lot of pain. What she didn't notice was the Soulless coyote trailing her from behind. Such irony that a predator was hunting another predator.

Once Scylla reached the ruins, she looked around, and spotted the coyote. It looked strangely familiar, but it clicked once she drew up a memory. Scylla huffed as a form of amusement. She continued walking as though she didn't know the coyote was there.

But a few seconds later, Scylla was stopped by the coyote, who had a sword in his stomach. She could have sworn he did it to himself earlier, based on how deep and fatal the injury was. "Halt!" The coyote said, "You muzt zee Mazter, az you are not perfect."

Scylla laughed weakly, amused by this form of intimidation. She stopped laughing a few moments later, her eyes blazing with joy and fury as she growled, "Whyyy, if it isn't a demigod, descending from Paradise to mingle with the commoners."

The coyote blinked. "We have a mission; and it iz to serve Mazter!"

Scylla rolled her eyes sarcastically as she smirked. "That was the universe's mission? Oh, I feel simply awful." A crack of thunder filled the air. "Must've slipped my mind."

"That's NO EXCUZE TO DISOBEYING MAZTER!!" The Coyote screeched.

That's what I was afraid of. Scylla thought, before smirking and giving a death glare to the coyote. "Well, it's disgusting to see a Bloodthroat think that they are perfect just because their master is. Such as Zielo, and he is -"

"Perfect?" The coyote suggested.

Scylla shuddered. "No, not perfect. Not since he fell to sin."

"Mazter IS PERFECT!!"

Scylla grimaced at the claim. "No one's perfect, not even the god of whatever you call it. That's a stupid claim." Scylla turned around and limped away.

"Don't turn your back on Mazter!" The coyote howled.

Scylla turned her head slightly, rolling her eyes sarcastically as she purred, "Oh no, Antoine, perhaps you shouldn't turn your back on your values."

Antoine let out a bloodthirsty shriek, diving towards Scylla as she dodged the attack. As a returning move, Scylla scratched the coyote harshly. Feeling her feet getting grabbed by some sort of tentacle, Scylla jumped onto an intact rooftop. She scanned the area below her, already picking up on a few details. First off, the location of the Bloodthroat's mark was on his...ugh, tongue. Blech. Second, Antoine was using some kind of updated version of his illusions. Third, the Bloodthroat was too powerful for Scylla to defeat on her own. At least without the necessary resources to save Antoine's soul. So, Scylla made the only choice she could make without bloodshed.

Scylla retreated, quickly and weakly teleporting to the submerged Angel Island.

Mango's Adventures in Angst-Land: Chapter 12

(Author's Note: I'm ready to actually get to the arc of the comics I made. Tis the chaos in my head is gonna break me someday. Welp, here goes nothing. *Hands over the next short chapter* Enjoy!)

A few moments after the fight (in which Queener broke up), Scylla said as she smiled, "Alright, fine. I'll go home, on one condition."

Mango crossed her arms, her messy fur sticking out as she asked in a sassy voice, "Then what's your condition?"

Scylla turned serious. "Let me bring the Abstractions."

"HUH?" Kiui asked in alarm.

Mango raised a paw to rest on her cheek as she thought about the deal. "Hmmm..."

Kiui growled. "Just say yes!"

Mango sighed, making up her mind. "Well, I've made my choice. I've decided that you can -"

So um.... Here's A Quesion From Snugglebunny Herself

PLEEEAAASE HEELP! I'M BEGGING YOU! MY BRAIN IS A MESS AND I CAN'T DECIDE!

A Dangerous Encounter: Chapter 2

Scylla's body screamed at her with the sharp sensation of pain as she slowly crawled back into the trees with her eyes closed, when something suddenly grabbed her leg, dragging Scylla somewhere else. Her mind was spinning and it felt like it was dunked in ice. Scylla heard muffled voices, screaming for mercy from a master. She opened one eye slowly, wincing as the screams rose in volume. It seems she was left in a bush, with multiple injuries on her neck and torso.

For once, Scylla was glad to be an EXE.

Groaning softly, Scylla sat up, being careful to not make too much noise. She looked up to see a large, fluffy, gray destroying a large amount of the strange people in front of the Master Emerald's altar, turning them into dust. Scylla's fists clenched in anger.

"Oh, you little-" Scylla started to whisper, but immediately stopped as the god-like hedgehog turned to face the bushes on the other side of the altar.

The hedgehog asked the bushes, "Did you enjoy the show?"

A blue hedgehog ran out of the bushes, shouting with a mix of anger and hatred, "YOU!"

Scylla looked at the gray hedgehog, wondering internally, "What did you do to this hedgehog to make him hate you so much?"

Her question was answered quickly as the gray hedgehog stopped the blue hedgehog in his tracks with telekinesis.

The blue hedgehog asked angrily, "Do you know who I am?"

The gray hedgehog looked through the blue hedgehog's eyes as though he could see through him, and said emotionlessly, "Sonic Oglivie the Hedgehog, son of Jules the Hedgehog and Bernadette the Hedgehog. Your ancestor, Jonathan Hedgehog, was two of the last two souls sacrificed to me."

Scylla then heard the gray hedgehog say something about Sonic being a copy of someone called Heephis. Sonic stuttered, "W-what?"

Then, to Scylla's ever-growing rage and horror, the gray hedgehog starts to tear Sonic's cheek off, asking him if the gray hedgehog should repeat himself.

Scylla subconsciously let out a quiet, yet angry growl. She knew that this is not how you should treat people, "godly" or otherwise. She was so ready to tackle the gray hedgehog to the afterlife, she was startled to see the gray hedgehog's hand freeze. Looking around, Scylla spotted a silvery-gray hedgehog using telekinesis, and Scylla gasped softly in concern.

The silvery-gray hedgehog was...scarily thin, to say the least, but he looked a lot like the larger, more gray hedgehog.

Scylla decided to call the silvery-gray hedgehog Silver, after the silvery sheen his fur gave off. Somehow, the gray hedgehog broke free from Silver's telekinesis and walked toward him.

Scylla started to silently stalk toward Silver in case the gray hedgehog decides to harm him. She could practically smell the confusion wafting from Silver. Scylla transformed into a sleek, navy blue wolf with raven wings as she silently stalked closer to Silver. Scylla's bright, glowing, red eyes glinted with a motherly concern for the weaker hedgehogs, and a vengeful anger at this powerful, gray hedgehog for what he has done to this world.

Scylla used an illusion to cloak her existence from the hedgehogs as she got closer to them. The emotionless look in the gray hedgehog's face led Scylla to angrily assume that he didn't care for anyone in existence. Scylla's red eyes glowed brighter as her anger grew.

What snapped Scylla out of the angry trance was the smell of blood and sickly coughing. Scylla's head snapped towards Silver, who was hacking and coughing up blood on the ground. Scylla's eyes widened in concern, letting out a worried bark and quickly ran over and started curling Silver against Scylla's body. She didn't care if no one could sense her existence, she wanted to comfort Silver if he was dying.

"HEY!" Sonic's voice shouted. Scylla looked at Sonic, whose eyes were glowing a sun yellow. Sonic said in a god language, "Leave my brother alone!" Scylla could feel a god's power radiating from Sonic. Looking at Silver, Scylla realized that if Silver truly was truly someone's brother, she'll need to protect them all.

Scylla didn't know how or why she felt the need to protect them, she just does. It was probably just her instincts. If there was only a way to make it disappear...

The grey hedgehog forced Sonic to kneel. Scylla's mind was swimming with unsaturated rage as this grey hedgehog was talking. Scylla glared at the grey hedgehog.

A black hedgehog with red stripes in his quills suddenly appears with a violet gun pointed to the grey hedgehog, earning an amused smirk from Scylla as she watches what happens next.

The black hedgehog started demanding that the grey hedgehog tell them what's going on and how to fix the problem. Often getting interrupted, the gray hedgehog grew angry. Scylla enjoyed the taste of this deity's anger, a devilish smile forming on her wolfish lips as she thought about how the emotionless being would taste.

Suddenly, Silver, Sonic, and the black hedgehog were brought to face the gray hedgehog and were forced to kneel. Sonic noticed several glowing objects that were apparently called energy controllers. Scylla growled at the grey hedgehog for his treatment toward living beings.

The grey hedgehog soon said something about their origins, which caught Scylla's attention quickly.

"Then what ARE your origins?" The black hedgehog demanded.

Scylla sat closer to the forest nearby, silently begging that someone explained what the grey hedgehog's origins are. From the currently invisible expression on the invisible wolf's face, Scylla was dying of curiosity.

The grey hedgehog said calmly, "Correction... OUR origins."

A Dangerous Encounter: Chapter 8

"Scylla. Scylla! SCYLLA!! Wake up!" A female voice said. Someone shook Scylla awake.

Scylla groaned, opening her eyes to the bright sun and a familiar woman.

"Aite? Did I have another nightmare?" Scylla mumbled, her head a little fuzzy from the nightmare.

Latest development of the Dark Gaia pack over the past few months was that the Dark Gaia pieces became werewolves. That means that the Dark Gaia pieces' human forms had characteristics relative to their former master.

Aite nodded, her violet eyes as dark as the night. "You started screaming in your sleep. Again."

Scylla sighed, sitting up and leaning against the sandy wall of the dune. Scylla noticed a man with violet hair and navy blue eyes walking up to Aite and Scylla. Scylla stood up and asked, "Any signs of the Soulless, Adam?"

Adam shook his head. "No, Alpha Scylla. It seems they left. But..."

Scylla growled. "But what?"

Adam shook his head. "Diana, Sophia, and Ajal wanted to tell you and Aite about it."

Aite and Scylla looked at each other with surprised expressions. Aite telepathically asked Scylla, "Could it be...Them?"

Scylla shook her head, telepathically replying with, "No, it can't be. They're with the demigods." Scylla transmitted the last word with a growl. "They should be as stuck-up as them now."

Adam cleared his throat, clearly eavesdropping on the telepathic conversation Scylla and Aite were having. Adam asked, "So, are we going to the other pack members now, or -"

"Of course we are. Let's see how they fared." Scylla intercepted.

Scylla grabbed her bow and quiver of arrows, slinging them onto her back. Then, Scylla, Adam, and Aite started to walk the ten-kilometer distance towards the makeshift watch post.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

About an hour later, Scylla, Aite, and Adam entered the watch post, which was made of beige-colored glass. As they entered, they saw Ajal looking at them expectantly. His blue-violet eyes are impossible to miss.

"Where is Diana and Sophia, Ajal?" Scylla asked impatiently.

"Can I say something before I answer?" Ajal asked meekly.

"Alpha Scylla, Ajal has our news. I suggest we listen to him first." Adam said.

Scylla sighed. Looking at Ajal, Scylla said formally, "Forgive me. I haven't been in the best mood lately, and I just woke up an hour beforehand."

Ajal nods in understanding, saying in a more serious tone, "I understand. But three Mobians have arrived in the desert just about 190 miles from here."

Aite asked, "Were they demigods? We've been seeing them several times on our daily hunts."

Scylla cringed at the thought of more demigods entering the desert. Ajal said seriously, "Not this time. They felt more like gods than demigods."

Scylla froze like a deer in headlights. That description...It feels so familiar, yet it didn't seem real. Scylla blocked her telepathic connection with her pack for a moment and listened for Sonic, Silver, and Shadow's thoughts. Once she heard them, Scylla gasped and shut it down immediately. Reopening her telepathic connection with her pack, Scylla's black eyes were wide.

Scylla looked at Adam, Aite, and Ajal worriedly. Aite asked Scylla, "What happened?"

Scylla took a deep breath, her trembling hand subconsciously curling into a fist as she said seriously, "The Sons of Heephis are back."

Some Galahs Go On An Inky Mission: Chapter 8

Third Person POV

"Behold!" Lord Amok announced as Audra and Alinta entered the room. "The Stranger is upon us. Kill them."

"Wait what?"

"Shit-"

"Kill them now."

"No-"

"Fuck!" This was a short battle, allowing the two Lost Ones to die with one hit, while the ruler two hits. Alinta glared at the corpses, glowing with a pale blue light. She growled, "Pathetic creatures." With a burst of moonlight,  the corpses were disintegrated.

Audra gulped. "Crap - Um, Alinta, isn't the entire kingdom we're in going to, I don't know, KILL US for this?"

"Behold! The new King Amok!"

"...What the Venoma?" Audra asked as Alinta happily took the throne. Audra slowly turned around and marched out of the "throne room" in haste. She was not dealing with it at the moment.

2 minutes later...

Alinta had joined Audra in the escapade when they heard this:

"I see your mind as the truth unfolds."

"You don't see nothin', bitch." Alinta hissed.

"Why...Why him?" Audra muttered as she climbed up the ladder.

"You will accept your fate."

"Ink Demon, when I catch you, Ink Demon..." Alinta started.

"Keep your dang mouth shut before I text Kiui and tell her that you need to go to the FNAF dimension again!" Audra calls out.

"You ain't helping the situation, Audra!" Alinta growled.

"Before the end."

"Oh my gods, shut up!" Alinta and Audra snapped in unison.

6 seconds later...

"Oh my goodness, is that a city?!" Audra asked, running up to the window to look at the city outside.

"Audra...the tiny devil is back." Alinta pointed out.

"It's a gosh-darn city, Alinta!" Audra whispered in awe.

"I know, but -"

Audra looked to her side and saw tiny Bendy sitting on the couch next to her. In response to his cuteness, Audra squealed, hugging Bendy. "It's the tiny boooyyy! Hiii!" She pulled herself out of the hug, pulling in a huge breath before she said, "Look, I'm really, really, reeaallyy sorry about stabbing you with my claw earlier. It was a mistake. I didn't mean to make you cry. Can we be friends?" She held out her hand to shake. Bendy looked into Audra's eyes and then shook her hand. Audra bit back her urges to make cuteness overload sounds.

Alinta sighed. "Fine. But we've gotta get into the city. I think that's where Kaiso is."

Bendy shook his head, making a crying look and hugging Audra tightly. It was at that moment that Audra saw a wound on Bendy's cheek. Audra shook her head. "No, Alinta. I'll look after Bendy. You go into the city." Alinta's eye twitched. She grabbed Audra and Bendy, in which Audra held onto the couch and yelped, "No, we're staying."

"Audra -!"

Two or so minutes later...

At the bottom of the stairs, Alinta had Audra by the tail, rolling her eyes as Audra childishly tried to crawl up the stairs and yell, "You meanie!"

Alinta sighed. She let go of Bendy and told him in a monotone voice, "You go sit down somewhere. I'll handle this." As Bendy happily went to go sit down, Alinta turned to Audra. "YOU'RE NOT A CHILD ANYMORE!!! GROW UP!!!!!"

A Dangerous Encounter: Chapter 11

Daylight came, causing Scylla and the other Dark Gaia members to transform back into "regular" humans. As of last night, they had made a backup plan, and they finally caught up with Shadow, Sonic, and Silver. However, the Dark Gaia pack had stayed five kilometers away from the Sons of Heephis.

Scylla turned to the pack, asking, "Do you want me to cast an illusion over us? No one will know of our existence."

Aite, Adam, Sophia, Ajal, and Diana nodded.

Scylla took a deep breath. She hasn't casted a grouped illusion in a long time, not since...

No, she can't think about that now. Scylla's illusion was soon set over the Dark Gaia pieces. Sweat dripped down Scylla's brow.

"Alpha Scylla, are you okay?" Sophia asked.

Scylla nearly jumped out her human form. "Y-y-yeah, I'm fine. I just...Haven't done this in a long time."

Aite and the others noticed Scylla's condition. Sophia said, "You sure? You're growing pale."

Scylla grit her teeth. "As I said, I haven't done this in a long time."

As they slowly walked closer and closer towards the Ini Pyramid, it started to rain, which was unusual in the desert. Scylla spotted Sonic running towards the pyramid. Scylla chuckled a little, causing her to falter slightly. After the tsunami incident, she expected Sonic to be at least a little traumatized - but she never expected how much it cost him. But part of her insanely enjoyed the revelation that the Sons of Heephis could be suffering as much as the werewolf pack was.

Scylla shoved the unempathetic emotion aside, not wanting to focus on the terrifying parts of her existence.

She could see that Shadow and Silver entered the Ini Pyramid, so Scylla tried to quicken her pace, but she ended up almost collapsing from the energy that was left.

Adam was swift enough to catch Scylla, but Scylla had a droplet of consciousness left to notice a blue blur rushing out of the pyramid.

Scylla passed out, her packmates calling out her name.

In her dreams, she saw two split scene happening at the same time. One of them was Sonic trying to be peaceful with his mother (who was the Soulless we saw in Chapter 3), which eventually turned into a fight against Zielo. The second scene was Shadow and Silver fighting Anna Croi.

Suddenly, in the first scene, Zielo moved out of range of one of Sonic's attacks, causing Sonic to kill his Soulless mother – on accident. Since Scylla was only watching them in the crook of her mind space, she could only watch as Sonic's mother dissolved into ashes. The next moment in the first scene was a blur – Sonic turning Tainted and fighting like a schizophrenic rabid animal, while Zielo dodged every attack and making threats, until finally -

A Dangerous Encounter: Chapter 5

Speeding closer, Scylla can see that Amy and Sonic were okay. Scylla slowed her speed, turning to see that the tsunami broke though the barrier between Tin-Can and was headed directly towards Sonic and Amy. Scylla flew ten feet higher in the air, just to be safe.

Amy jumped to higher ground, while Sonic, for some reason, didn't seem to jump for some reason. Scylla cocked her head to see better, and saw Sonic's slightly pained expression and look of realization. Sonic turned around to face Amy.

Sonic said, "A-Amy, I... I..." He took a deep breath. "Amy, I lo-" And just like that, Sonic was engulfed in the tsunami. Scylla nearly gasped, while Amy looked on with an emotionless face, and took off.

Scylla dove into the water, not caring if she drowned trying to save the hedgehog.

Not even twenty minutes later, the water shot Scylla out.

Scylla became a raven-winged woman, with copper skin, magenta eyes, and blond hair. Out of the corner of her eye, Scylla can see Silver and Shadow dragging Sonic out of the water. And the smell of hedgehog blood was going to make Scylla's mouth water. But that didn't matter, because a large water monster formed out of the newly-formed lake.

Scylla sensed that Zielo was behind this, and growled at the monster in front of her. The water monster roared at the three hedgehogs, attacking Shadow, Sonic, and Silver with watery tentacles.

Scylla screeched like a harpy at this, throwing a Chaos Spear at the water monster in a rage. Flying five kilometers high in the sky, Scylla threw Chaos Spears like an animal, boiling the water wherever the Spears hit. Scylla didn't see anything but the water monster. She wanted to destroy it. She wanted to ruin whatever life it had left. She wanted to -

The water creature exploded, the force sending Scylla flying into a sharp branch. She felt the wound with her hand, and felt an ice-cold liquid. Scylla looked at her hand and saw her signature black blood. Cursing herself, she removed herself from the branch and flew to the skies, away from where she could potentially be found.

Scylla saw her blood dripping from her wing, a sign that the puncture wound was deep. Scylla spotted some dark violet lights, a yellow zigzag, and a mountain thrown onto the land. It made Scylla shiver. She wasn't sure what happened, but she doesn't want to go near THAT ever again.

Three screams ended the predicament. Scylla recognized those voices like a dark angel would.

Scylla tried speaking, but it felt like a hundred mites closed off her lungs, making it hard to breathe. Scylla dove down to the ground, trying her best to breathe normally as the panic engulfed her mind.

When she reached land, Scylla made sure to carefully hide behind a tree, because she felt Zielo's presence.

Transforming into a black wolf, Scylla snuck closer to the hedgehogs. Scylla's tail felt like lightning, swirling and crackling as the puncture wound healed.

Zielo used his telekinesis to lift Sonic, Silver, and Shadow off the ground. Scylla's head felt like bones, so she barely could hear anything the gray hedgehog was saying.

But as soon as Zielo opened his mouth and started to try absorbing the three hedgehogs' souls, Scylla snapped out of it and ran to take their place instead.

BOOOOOOM!
