Chapter 3:

After Blaze sat back at the table, the waitress came with Blaze's water and coffee. "Thank you," Blaze said as the waitress nodded and walked away. Blaze drinks the coffee, but suddenly she starts to feel a sharp pain in her stomach and starts to gag in pain. Then, she drinks some water, but only makes the pain worst. Blaze screams in pain, which draws the attention of the police officers and the restaurant employees.

"Madam, are you okay," a waitress asked as she approached Blaze. Suddenly, Blaze tackles the waitress to the ground, growling as her teeth and nails got sharp. Blaze was about to bite the waitress' neck when Honeydew quickly pushes her off the woman. "Miss Blaze, stop please," Honeydew cried as she started to feel scared. Blaze snaps out of her bloodlust and is shocked by what she almost did. Then, she realized that the police officers pointing their guns at her. "Put your hands in the air," one of them shouted.

Without thinking, Blaze picks up Honeydew and runs out the back door. "Stop," they yelled as they ran after Blaze and one of them called for back-up.

Meanwhile,Trent and Katie were walking back to their office when they heard the officer's call for back-up and the officer mentioning a purple female cat. "Get some out there now," Trent ordered. Espio nods his head and gets his team ready and they leave.

Meanwhile, Blaze kept running and trying to lose the officers, but they kept chasing her. Suddenly, she heard one of them yell, "Freeze and turn yourself in, and let go of the girl!" Blaze ignores them and keeps running, but suddenly she loses her footing and falls making her drop Honeydew. Honeydew screams as she hits the ground, but then she gets up and runs to Blaze's side. "Miss Blaze, get up," Honeydew said as the police officers caught up to them. Just as they were going to approach them, they suddenly get knocked out cold by Silver and Sally, who had heard the shouting.

Silver runs to Blaze's side and realized that she needs blood. He quickly pulls up the sleeve of his coat and bites his wrist to draw blood. Then, he brings his wrist to Blaze's mouth, but she refuses to drink the blood. "Blaze, you'll die if you don't drink it," Silver said with worry. Blaze sees the worry in his eyes and quickly starts to drink the blood, while starting to feel her strength return. Then, she pulls away from Silver's wrist and her eyes start to glow for a bit. "Can you get up," Silver asked. "Yes," Blaze replies as she gets up and Honeydew holds her hand. Blaze smiles at Honeydew letting her know that she was okay. Suddenly, they hear wings flapping, which starts to frighten Honeydew, who starts to hold Blaze's hand tighter. "Do you hear that," Sally asked as she got near Silver. "Yes, let's move," Silver said, but before they could walk a few steps they heard something land behind them.

Turning around they saw Mephiles standing in his hybrid form. "I know what you and the mutt did, Sally," Mephiles said.

"Maria and Black Doom deserved their fate," Sally replied.

"Maria was always such a weakling and Black Doom deserved his fate many times over, but what draws my attention is the fact that there was so much effort to hide the murders of your families. What do you think they had to hide other than to hide the fact that they were breaking the law that Black Doom himself created, or maybe it's the two of you who have something to hide," Mephiles said as he quickly tackled Sally and Silver to the ground and prepared to rip their throats apart. Suddenly, he was shot with multiple bullets which made him get off Sally and Silver. Blaze kept firing until the gun ran out of bullets. "Run Honeydew and warn the others," Silver ordered. Honeydew nods her head and quickly runs away.

Mephiles gets up and charges at Blaze, but Silver and Sally start shooting at him. Mephiles flies high and then quickly flaps his wings to make a strong gust of wind which blows Silver, Blaze, and Sally away and crash into a boulder that cracks. Mephiles charges at them, but gets tackled by a white werewolf. "Rouge," Silver said as he recognized who it was. "Run Silver, I'll keep him distracted," Rouge growled as she fought Mephiles. Silver nods his head and signals the girls to follow him.

Meanwhile, Honeydew made to the hideout and quickly runs inside and starts to yell, "Wake up, everyone we have to leave!"

"Hold on Honeydew, why do we have to leave," Cosmo asked. "Someone named Mephiles is attacking," Honeydew replied. Sonic, Manic, and Knuckles knew that they had to leave. "Sonic, what do we do," Knuckles asked.

"Well there is another reason we came here," Sonic said as he pressed a button on wall which opened a tunnel in the back of the hideout revealing a black Jeep. "Get in everyone," Manic said as he was about to get in the driver, but Knuckles stops him and said, "It's best if I drive." Manic doesn't complain and gets in the passenger seat.

Meanwhile, Silver and the girls were still running, but they soon ended up near a road. Then, they see a truck drive up and Silver quickly gets on the road which causes the driver to slam on the brakes. Then, Sally quickly opens the driver door. "Mind if I drive," she said as she revealed her fangs while Silver did the same. The driver gets scared and quickly runs away, and then Sally and Silver get in while Blaze sits in the back of the truck. Sally steps on the gas petal and speeds off. Mephiles then emerges from the forest after knocking Rouge away. After seeing the truck speed away, Mephiles flies after it. Blaze sees him and gets ready to fight, while transforming into her hybrid form. Mephiles growls and starts to fight Blaze. Blaze scratches Mephiles and then kicks him in the stomach. Mephiles growls in pain and punches Blaze which nearly makes fall off the truck, but Blaze holds on and gets back up. Mephiles goes to attack Blaze again, but gets shot by Silver. Mephiles flies up and then gets to the side of the truck and slams into it trying to make it fall off the road. Sally tries to keep the truck from falling but fails. Suddenly, Rouge comes out of the forest and pushes the truck back on the road. Then, she joins Blaze in battle. Up ahead Sally sees the Jeep and recognized it as one of their own. Mephiles kept fighting Blaze and Rouge until he managed to knock Blaze away and then grabs Rouge's head and starts to slam it against the floor which knocks Rouge out cold. Blaze recovers and then scratches Mephiles in the face and throws him off the side of the truck causing him to fall off and get run over. Sally drives off while Mephiles watches them leave since he is drained of energy. His wounds start to heal but he still looked bloody.
