Shadow and Rouge had their clothes on from having their fun time in the healing waters.

"When you find your sister, could she come back to see me again?" Rouge asked, fixing her dress to make sure it's on.

Shadow grabbing his leather trench coat, "Yes, of course" he gave her a kiss.

"And thank you for healing the wounds for me, Rouge. It was very kind of you" Shadow said with a small smile.

"You're welcome" Rouge said, smiling at him.

"I'll see you later, and stay safe" Shadow said and she nodded.

"You too and be careful in the forest by nightfall" Rouge said.

"I will" Shadow winks at her and walks to the opposite direction to go and find his sister.

With Amy, she was still unconscious and was carried by the werehog. He brings her to the waterfall and gently lays her down on the rock, "Man, I know she's gonna freak out but I have to make her trust me" he said and sighs.

Soon, he healed the cuts and wounds on her face with white cream stuff from the waterfall to stop the bleeding. After he did that he saw her moving a bit, she woke up with her eyes open to see a werehog in front of her. She tries to move aside but he held her down.

"Hey, relax. I'm not gonna hurt you" he said.

"What are you doing?" she whimpered in fear.

"Treating your wounds" he said, finished up her wounds, "Please, don't freak out. I'm just helping you" he sighs and simply turns back to normal to show her that he's a hedgehog.

"Whoa" Amy was amazed that he can change his form.

A while later, the pink hedgehog had a drink from the waterfall since she was thirsty; she stays quiet while sitting on the rock. The male hedgehog has his legs crossed in Indian style, waiting to hear her say something to him.

"Why did you save me?" she asked him.

He sighs and looks at her, "Werehogs serve witches" he answered.

She raised a brow curiously at what he meant by that, she was about to speak when he stands up and walks by her.

"Hey, wait. Wait!" she called out and he stopped.

He looked back at her for what she wants.

"What's your name?" she asked him.

"Silver" he sighs, "I-....I got to go. I can't stay here right now, I'm sorry" he said and walks away.

"Silver, wait! Where am I?" she called him out but he was gone, "Grrr....great. Now I'm on my own" she grumbled and sighs.

It was getting dark and Shadow was still looking for Amy in the woods but did not find her yet. He walks in the woods alone when he saw an old house. He walks over there and looks around to make sure there's no one around. It was clear. He picks up a rock and threw it at the house just to be sure it's safe. It was safe as he picks up a tree branch as his weapon and walks up to the house. He opens the door quietly and goes inside, he sees that this house looks abandoned for years. As he steps inside he heard the door slams shut by a person and got tackled down to the old wooden floor, it broke and it send him and the intruder down into a glittering looking cave. Shadow's back hit hard on the ground with the person on top of him. Grunting and groaning at the same time to fight the person but realized it was Amy.

"Shadow?"

"Amy?"

"Where have you been?" she helps him up and hugs him that she found her brother.

"Where have you been?" he asked her and hugs her back, chuckling to see her.

"Hi" they both said to each other. Shadow saw some cuts on Amy's face and this made him feel concerned.

"What the hell happen to your face?" he asked but she didn't say anything, "Amy? Who did this to you?" he asked her again, wanting to beat the hell out of person who did this to his sister.

"Shadow, I'm okay. I'm fine" Amy said, trying to calm him down.

Her brother hugs her and she hugged him back. Soon they broke the hug and looked around to where they are.

"Where are we?" Shadow said.

"I don't know" Amy said, getting up and helping her brother up as he made some groans like he was hurt, "You okay?"

"Did you have to land on me?" he asked her with sarcasm and Amy simply rolled her eyes. Shadow walks around and sees candles everywhere in this cave, "What is this place?"

Amy found a match and ignites it with a tiny flame, putting it near the candle for it to light up. She spots a witchcraft spell book which looked different than the other witches that she fought before, didn't look like it was a regular evil witchcraft.

"This isn't a regular witch's lair" Amy said.

"No...but let's get the hell out of here" Shadow suggested, they crawl out from the basement. Shadow grabs Amy's hand to help her up from the edge.

Amy found a candle and lights it up to see in the dark inside the house. Shadow looks around and walks in the children's bedroom, this made him realize something that is familiar about this house.

"Sis? I think you want to come and see this" Shadow said. Amy walks up to him at what he found.

They found a picture on the wall of them and their parents.

"I think this is our old house" Shadow said to Amy, "And this is our old room" he takes the candle from her, "Here, look" he walks in and lights it around to see, "Your bed" he points at the right and looks at the left of his bed.

He saw the old drawings on the wooden wall, "Ha! Remember this?"

Amy giggled and looked at the drawings.

"This is you and this is mom" Shadow points at the drawings with Amy smiling.

Shadow makes his way to his old bed and sits down, putting the candle light near the nightstand, "Old beds" he chuckled with her.

Amy's smile became a slight frown.

"Shadow, do you ever wonder what happened to our parents?" Amy asked him. Shadow glares at her.

"We don't talk about it Amy, we made a promise. You know that" he said and gets up from his bed, walking out of the bedroom. Amy follows him.

"Why do you think the witch's spells don't work on us?" she asked.

"Leave it alone, would you—" Shadow said but was grabbed by her before walking out the door to leave.

"This is our house! This is where we grew up!" Amy shouted, and points at the broken wooden floor, "And what does that look like to you?!" she asked.

"I don't know, Amy! We grew up over a witch's lair. So what? So we're cursed?!" Shadow said.

"No! I think that our mother was--..." Amy didn't finish her sentence as the door flew up. They both looked at the door that is wide open but there was no person there; that is until they hear the person's voice inside the house.

"Ah, so you finally found your way home after all these years?" it was Muriel in her normal human form, "How very sweet" she chuckled.

Amy tried to attack her with a metal piece but Muriel reflected it to the wall, she then makes a shelf fall over near the door.

"I remember this house. The house of Adriana.....the Great White Witch" she said and glares at the witch hunters, "Your whore of a mother"

Shadow and Amy growled lowly and stays calm.

"Let me tell you a little story" Muriel casts fire near the old fireplace. Shadow and Amy looked and didn't flinch, looking back at Muriel to hear the story.

"Once upon a time near a shitty little town. There was a farmer who fell in love with a White Witch" she narrates the story.

"With their two beautiful children" Muriel narrates the story.

Young Shadow running and playing with Young Amy outside the house while their parents are working at the garden, watching them play.

"Oh, they were so happy. But not for long" Muriel narrating.

They kissed and smiled at each other, looking back at their kids playing and laughing with joy.

It then changes to the part where the moon turns into a Blood Moon.

"During a Blood Moon, there was a potion that will make you immune to fire. The key to the potion was the heart of a Grand White Witch" she said.

The father hedgehog rushed inside the house which made the mother turn around to look at him.

"But your mother, the most powerful White Witch was too strong for us"

The father goes into the children's bedroom which woke them up.

"So it had to be you, Amy. It had to be your heart" Muriel said while narrating the story.

The father takes his children to the dark forest; Young Shadow and Young Amy catching up to their father that is rushing fast as to why.

"As the Blood Moon approached, I sent out a little rumor to the people of Augsburg. And when she knew they were coming, she had your father take you to the forest to hide you" Muriel narrates.

"FATHER WAIT!!" Young Shadow shouted.

Their father sighs in regret and leaves them in the forest without saying a word as he puts out the lantern.

The angry mobs kicked the door down and Adriana was in trouble.

"She did not know what they would do to her but she was too proud to run. And the White Witch would never use her magic against humans" Muriel said.

As the father came back he was too late to save his wife. The mobs were burning her alive outside near the house, screaming out loud.

"NOOOO!!!" the father screamed in horror.

"And when your father came back for her" she continues to the part where the father was knocked out, the mobs tied a rope around his neck, dragging him near the burning live Adriana, "They hanged him"

The father was lift up by the rope, crushing his neck tightly, gagging and coughing.

"Right in front of your mother's....BURNING....flesh" Muriel said and the father stopped struggling and died.

"Adriana was gone.....but so was your heart. And the Blood Moon passed" she said to the final end of the story.

"The end. It was a beautiful story don't you think?" Muriel asked them but Shadow and Amy glared at her, "They died to save you"

Shadow and Amy was shocked and frowned that their parents didn't abandon them long ago; they sacrificed themselves to save their lives.

"And all your life why you hated them" Muriel said.

Shadow looks at Amy while taking his weapon out slowly from his trench pocket and nods to her.

"Tomorrow" Muriel appeared near the door as Shadow and Amy turns around, "Sisters from all dark corners of the land will join me in the light of the Blood Moon" she walks around them and continues to say more, "Of the greatest Sabbath of all. The only thing left....is the everlasting power...... the heart....of a Grand....White....Witch" she said.

Shadow had enough of this, "You know you talk too much" he takes out his dagger and tries to stab Muriel but she dodged it and punched him in the face.

"Ugh!"

She then punched Amy and goes right to Shadow that is recovered. He tries again but Muriel caught his wrist and stabs his dagger on his lower torso.

"Agghhh!!" Shadow screamed and gasped. He saw Muriel changing her face to a dark evil witch but that didn't scare him.

"Bad move, witch hunter" she grinned evilly. Shadow tries to move the dagger but Muriel stabbed him again.

"Argh!" he screamed and was pushed roughly to the wooden broken hole, landing hard on the ground of the cave.

"SHADOW!!!" Amy screamed in horror and was grabbed by Muriel, taking her back to the witch's lair.
