-Sophie's point-of-view: where do I even look? I'm completely lost. I better turn back around and try to help. (even if it's pointless). I chaos controlled back to the house"hello"? "anyone here"? I called out. The house is deserted. Maybe their in the backyard? I looked behind the house. Nobody to be seen. "Ugh; where did everyone go"? I asked myself going into the forest for a better look. I see a river in the clearing. I see something in the water. "what is that"? I ask myself as I came closer. (gasp). "It's a person"! I pulled the figure out quickly. "are you alright"? He was passed out. (oh god!) I picked him up and take him to the house. I lay him on the couch and go get an emergency kit out of the kitchen. I pulled out a needle that's suppose to stun him awake. (amy said this is for emergencies only. THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!) I stuck it in his arm and waited for 10 seconds. He shot straight up while gasping for air. He turned to me and I dropped the needle out of shock. I recognized him. (I don't know why I didn't before). "A-Ashes"? "But how"? I said as he smiled at me. "Me and raven will explain everything later; right now we have to.....". "Wait; raven's alive too"? I asked as tears started forming in my eyes. "yes, she is". I couldn't hold the tears back anymore. They started falling one by one. Ashes pulled me into a hug. "it's ok Sophie". He said caringly. I then pulled away. "ok, I'm fine now". He then made a serious look. "listen; hikari has been kidnapped". "what"! "by who"? "by scourge". I growled under my breath. (of course it's him). "is that who did that to you"? He nodded. I rolled my eyes. "he's gonna pay". "Anyway, I bet everyone is probably there by now so we better get going". "wait, what about your friend Tori"? (oh yeah). "well have to save them one at a time". "hikari was looking for her sister Amber, because she was kidnapped". (why me?) "So it's on our to-do list". "let's go before anymore surprises happen". He nodded and we headed into the forest.

Tori's point-of-view: I'M A TERRIBLE PERSON! I can't even look at myself anymore! I sat on the ground and buried my face in my knees. I heard the door open. I didn't bother looking up. I heard the cell door open and felt something hit me. "HEY"! I yelled and immediately changed my attitude. "you have company". Smirked scourge as he closed the door behind him. "Amber"! "Hikari"! "Tori"! Amber yelled and hugged me. Hikari looks away. "I thought you were dead"? I asked looking away. "no, silver protected us from the explosion, all of us". "so your all ok"? She nodded. "not everyone". hikari said looking away. "What are you talking about"? Asked Amber. "nothing". She says calm. (even more than usual). "no, something's up with you". There was silence. "Hikari, if you don't tell me, then so help me.......". "FINE"! She yells back. "I met someone in the forest when finding you, and and scourged probably drowned him"! "HAPPY NOW"! It grew silent. "I don't think it's fair for anyone to die, especially on my account". "And I can't take this guilt......". "Hikari.......please calm down". "You don't want to lose control again". "What are you two talking about"? I ask "Another day Tori". (fair enough). "How are we gonna get out of here"? Amber asked. "we can't". "I've already tried". I said. "maybe we can vanish out". "how are we gonna do that Amber"? "we have no chaos emeralds". Hikari says. She then looked at me. "Your powers". "What about my powers"? I asked confused. "you got on this universe with your powers". "like a chaos emerald". "maybe if you focus on where you want to go, you can do it". "I don't think that's how it works". "you got any better ideas"? Amber asked me. "well...... No...... But". "then let's give it a try". I sighed. "OK". "let's try it". I agreed. I stood up and focused on getting out. (Disappear! Disappear! Disappear!) "uh...... Nothing's happening". Says hikari. "you think I don't know that"!?!? Said Amber. "I don't understand though". "my powers were working before, why not now"? The room grew silent until the door opened. Scourge came in, along with Troy and Charlie. "comfortable"? Asked Charlie. I glared. "you asshole". I muttered. "With you three out of the way, I can carry out my plan". He smiled evilly😈. "why do you look so familiar to me"? Asked Hikari. He then smiled even more. "why, don't you recognize me; hikari". "how do you know my name"? She asked. "let's just say........ I know you personally...... Dragon Claw". He says and her eyes grew wide. She falls to the floor in shock. "hikari"? "HIKARI"! Amber yells out to her, but she won't move". (oh my god. This is not good). Amber looks at Troy. "I recognize you TOO well". She spats out. "good, then go into shock". He laughs while pointing to hikari. "you leave hikari alone, NOW"! "no". " you see, we have to use you two". Charlie pressed a button on a remote and Amber and Hikari started shaking uncontrollably while being shocked. (I see that they put ankle bracelets on them and it's draining their energy too). They sent getting weaker and weaker. "HEY"! "STOP"! They then look at me. "leave.... Them.... Alone". He pressed the button to stop the shocking. They both fell to their knees, out of breath. "what will you do if I don't, little hedgehog"? I started boiling up inside. "your weak". "your pathetic". "your nothing". "and soon, your friends will be nothing too". "NO"! I screamed and power increased around me as I shot out red power that instantly knocked them through the other room, knocking them out. "woah". I said to myself as the cell door fell over. I then ripped off the anklets off their ankles with the strength of the aura surrounding my hands. "come on, let's get you two outta here". I say as I help them both to their feet and lead them out of the building, holding them steady so they wouldn't fall over.
