Chapter Seven

"Just what exactly do you mean by you wanna play a Game Discord."Twilight had said sounding very angry as Discord gave her a grin before flying back down looking directly at Twilight now

"Well let me point it out in a way you'll understand my dear."Discord had said as Sonic rolled his eyes tapping his foot

"I trust that you will now want to use the Elements of Harmony and turn me back into stone do you not."Discord had said as Twilight nodded her head as Discord let out a smirk

"Well you can't!"Discord said with his arms in the air

"What do you mean I can't?"Twilight had said

"You see I knew for a fact that once word had gotten out that I was free you and your pathetic friends would try to use the Elements of Harmony to turn me back into my stone cold which I might add prison. But luckily for me Dr Eggman knew what would happen so when he and his army attacked the Castle they stole the Elements of Harmony which was in that Book in your Library."Discord had said with a evil grin

"Wait so that was just a diversion then!"Twilight had said as Discord nodded

"Indeed it was."Discord had said as he was now floating on a cloud

"Ahh these things are really good for the back."Discord said now sipping on a Drink from a Coconut wearing a pair of Sunglasses as Sonic walked over pulling Discord down by his tail causing him to fall through the cloud laying on the ground now with his Drink split over his head

"Awh now look what you did Hedgehog you owe me a Drink!"Discord had said as Sonic rolled his eyes agian

"Spare me the sob story just get to the point and tell us what we need to do."Sonic had said as Discord grins floating up into the sky as a Map appeared in Sonic's Hands now

"You must use this Map and locate the missing Elements of Harmony."Discord had said

"That all!"Sonic had said with a smirk now

"This is like a scavenger hunt this is too easy with my Speed I can easily get them back."Sonic said as Discord looked at the Blue Hedgehog snapping his fingers as a bolt of lighting hits Sonic which causes him to fly backwards

"SONIC!"Tails and Amy shouted running over to their friend helping him up off the ground as Discord let out an evil laugh

"Did you really think I was gonna let someone like you interfere with our plains Hedgehog."Discord had said as Twilight stood in front of Sonic now

"What did you do to him Discord!."Twilight had demanded

"You better answer now otherwise my fist will meet your face."Knuckles had angrily declared looking at Discord

"Why all I did was take away his speed from him."Discord said as Sonic's eyes lit up

"W...what...No..You couldn't...have.."Sonic said as he started to run but found himself falling flat on his face as everyone gasped looking as Tails helped Sonic up

"It's true...Sonic lost his speed."Twilight said

"Oh and might I also add that you have oh three days to beat my little game otherwise not only will your friend here be speed-less for the rest of his life but Dr Eggman will Legionize The Princesses."Discord had said with a grin as he quickly spun around vanishing from the group

"Sonic?"Tails had said looking at his Best Friend as Sonic let out a small sigh

"I'm...so sorry Sonic...It's all my fault."Twilight had said as Sonic shook his head walking over to Twilight

"Don't worry Twilight this happened once before but I manged to make it without my speed before and I'll do it again."Sonic said as Twilight smiled faintly at her friend

"Come on let's head back to the Barn and fill everyone in on the situation we can plain our next move then."Twilight had said as Sonic nodded as the group took off to the Barn now

"Agent Oscuro, Miss Lin welcome back to G.U.N. HQ."A G.U.N. solider had said as he moved away letting the two enter the building belonging to Guardian United Nations or G.U.N. for short. Shadow had used his Chaos Control power and and transported the group to Station Square where the Headquarters was held. Lin had been in the building before since Oscuro had worked for G.U.N after leaving Angel Island and the Echidna Security Team there they had a apartment in Station Square as well and Shadow had suggested that Lin should head back there and pack for the trip ahead. Lin looked at Oscuro as Oscuro gently took Lin's hands kissing his wife's head

"Don't worry I promise I'll fill you in when you get back."Oscuro had said to Lin as a solider had led Lin inside the Taxi that would take her back to the apartment.

"How's she holding up?"Shadow said looking at Oscuro as Oscuro let out a small sigh

"She's still really upset that Sir Charles had kept what happened to The Princess a Secret from Lin and that Sonic didn't bother calling her."Oscuro had said looking at Shadow

"Hm The Blue Hedgehog does have a way of keeping things from other people."Shadow had said as Oscuro nodded

"I just pray to god that Lin doesn't kill Sonic once she sees him."Oscuro said as Shadow and Him exchanged a smirk

"The Commander is away on a trip now but we can still wait for Lin in Hope's Lab."Shadow had said as Oscuro nodded his head.

"It will be good to see Hope again."Osucro said as the two made their way down to the Lab as Hope Kintobor dropped what she was doing onto the floor running over to Oscuro wrapping her arms around the Echidna hugging him tightly as she looked up at Oscuro

"Is...is it true about...what happened to Sally?"Hope said looking as Oscuro nodded his head as Hope pulled away looking

"I can't belive Uncle would do something like that..."Hope said with anger in her voice as Shadow placed a hand on the Girl's shoulder

"You can't blame yourself Hope you're nothing like the Doctor or at that point his Nephew as well."Shadow said as Hope nodded thinking about her Half Brother Snively Kintobor who was Dr Eggman's Nephew

"Yeah Shadow I know...Anyway once Lin gets back here we can begin."Hope had said as she walked away to her computer in a corner

"Poor Girl."Oscuro had said as Shadow nodded

"Your still looking out for her aren't you Shadow?"Oscuro had said as Shadow gave Oscuro a glare before nodding his head

"I am...she reminds me so much of Maria...And I swear I'll do what I can to help those in need...even Hope."Shadow said looking at the Girl from his spot

"I'm sure Maria would be proud of you Shadow. I know Lin is cause if you didn't show up when you did I was afraid Lin was gonna do something she'd regret."

"I still might."Lin's voice had called out as the Young Hedgehog walked into the room carrying her Backpack on her back handing Oscuro his own Backpack giving her Husband a grin on his face

"Glad to see you again Hope."Lin said as Hope had ran to Lin hugging her as Lin placed a hand on Hope's Hair running her hand through it whispering in her ear

"Don't worry I'm gonna make Dr Eggman pay for what he did to Sally."Lin had said as Hope looked at Lin with a smile on her face

"Alright so just how are we gonna get to...Equestria was it?"Lin had said as Hope looked at Shadow who pulled out his Green Chaos Emerald tossing it to Lin

"I know that you have trained with the Guardian and that you have the power to use Chaos Control just picture in where you need to go and Chaos Control will do the rest for you."Shadow had said as he handed Oscuro a small watch

"We'll use this to keep in touch. We can use The Files we have here at G.U.N to see if we can't do anything to help you guys out with."Hope had said from her spot as Oscuro nodded her head looking at Lin

"Ready to go Hun?"Oscuro said

"You bet once I'm there I'm gonna crack that Eggman wide open once I get my hands on him."Lin had said as she held up the Chaos Emerald shouting out Chaos Control as the two vanished quickly in a trace of green light

"Do you really think they'll be okay Shadow?"Lin had asked

"I know they will."Shadow had replied as Hope looked at her Watch

"Hmm it's almost break time for me what do you say we break for Lunch and head over to La Rose Cafe for a Burger my treat."Hope had said

"Sounds good to me."Shadow had said as the two had exited the lab once Hope had shut the lights off

"What! What do you mean Sonic doesn't have his speed anymore?"Said the Green Crocodile known as Vector who was a member of The Chaotix Team that work under the leadership of Knuckles. Sonic and the Others had made it back to the Barn and as soon as they had entered they had filled everyone in on how Discord and Eggman had scattered the Elements of Harmony throughout the world of Equestria and how Discord used his powers to strip Sonic of his speed. Sonic was sitting on a crate as Applejack had walked over to him carrying a tray of snacks on her back as Sonic reached and picked out a Green Apple and a Mug of the Farm's Homemade Apple Cider

"This isn't good if Sonic doesn't have his speed then how can we save Princess Celestia and Princess Luna!"Pinkie Pie had shouted with her arms raised in the air as everyone looked at the Blue Hedgehog who let out a small sigh

"Don't worry guys I'll be fine...I may have lost my speed but I can still help out."Sonic said giving Tails and Amy a Nod

"I think I might know a way on how we can get back your speed Sonic."Twilight had said as Sonic looked at her

"Wait...Twilight you're not thinking about asking her for help are you?"Rarity had said as Twilight looked at her Friend giving Rarity a Nod

"I am Rarity."Twilight had said

"Twilight are you insane!"Rainbow Dash had called out from her spot as she and Scootaloo were above the group on patrol as Twilight took a deep breath

"Look Girls I don't like it anymore then you do but we don't have any other choices. We need Sonic's help on this we can't do this alone and if that even means asking her for help then so be it. I'm not gonna let Discord or Dr Eggman harm anyone else ever again!"Twilight had said looking at Rarity as the White Unicorn nodded her head

"It's alright Twilight I understand."Rarity had said

"Yeah me too."Pinkie Pie had said with a smile

"Just what do you mean by someone who can help me get my speed back Twilight?"Sonic had said looking at Twilight

"We need Trixie's help."Twilight had said
