Silver pushed his shopping cart through the aisle of the supermarket. He had been given a grocery list by Blaze and he had to get cereal. As he searched for the Lucky Charms, he saw Charmy trying to get some cereal from the high shelf. He seemed to be struggling, even with those wings of his. Silver thought, hey maybe I should help him.

Before Silver can act, he saw someone else walk up to Charmy. He saw that the kid wanted the cereal at the high shelf and just reached out and handed it to him.

"Here ya go" The person said. Silver knew who that was. It was his rival Mephiles. But why was he helping Charmy? Why was being nice? Silver was confused and it haunted him as he got his Charms and continued shopping.

The next day, at Chao Garden, Sonic was taking care of his chao. The Chao was passing a ball to Sonic, in which Sonic passed back to it. The Chao threw the ball really far and Sonic rushed over to get it. As Sonic picked up the ball, it occurred to him that he wasn't the only one in the Garden.

"Get over here Cupcake. You can't swim yet"

Sonic looked up and tried to find the source of the voice and to his surprise he saw Mephiles chasing a Chao. What the heck was he doing here? And where did he get a Chao? Did Elise give it to him? Did he steal it? Who knows?

Sonic went back to his Chao demanding answers for what he just saw but he didn't want to talk to Mephiles in fear that he'll kill him so Sonic tried to clear his mind for the rest of the day. Unfortunately, it didn't work.

The following day, Sonic gathered all his friends to meet up at his house.

"Everyone, I've gathered you all here to discuss something currently going on" Sonic said.

"Ok but in my defense, Amy bet 5 bucks that I wouldn't eat all the cookies in the cookie jar" Knuckles suddenly said.

"That's not why- SO IT WASN'T TAILS WHO ATE ALL THE COOKIES" Sonic shouted. He cleared his throat.

"But seriously, Anyone else realize that Mephiles is acting nice all of a sudden? I saw him yesterday at Chao Garden. With a Chao" Sonic said.

"I saw him at the grocery store. He helped Charmy get something from a high shelf" Silver said.

"He bought Cream ice cream when she dropped hers at the park" Shadow said.

"He didn't call me an idiot when I bumped into him at Sugar and Coffee" Knuckles said. "And he calls everyone an idiot. Not just me! "

"Do you think he's planning something?" Silver said "What if he's just acting nice so he'll catch us off guard and-"

"Oh you guys didn't hear?" Amy suddenly said "He and his husband just had a baby girl"

The room suddenly went silent.

"HE WHAT?!" They all said.

"Mephiles is a father? How? Why" Silver said.

"He's producing! They're gonna be more Mephiles' now" Shadow said. Sonic said nothing and was a little upset at the news. He knew very well who Mephiles' husband was: his ex boyfriend Sonic.exe. They had met after Sonic broke up with Shadow and has dated for a few months. One day, they broke up because they weren't on the same page anymore. That's when Exe meet Mephiles and they fell in love. Sonic and Shadow got back together but Sonic still has this guilt of losing Exe. He's happy for his Ex but for some reason he still felt bad for breaking up with him.

"Maybe we should just, I don't know, be happy for Mephiles?" Amy said. "He can't come after us if he has a daughter to take care of"

"You don't know how Mephiles works. He'll hide a cookie in our pockets for his daughter to find" Knuckles said. He suddenly reached into his pocket and pulled out a cookie "SEE?!"

"You put that cookie in your pocket before this meeting started" Amy said.

"Oh yeah. Right" Knuckles said before eating the cookie.

"Enough talk about cookies. What are we gonna do about Mephiles and his baby junk?" Shadow said.

"I say we keep a stern eye on him. Then we'll be ready when he inevitably attacks" Silver said.

"I second that" Shadow said. As they planned, Sonic looked away from his friends.

"So he truly has moved on… " Sonic said to no one.
