WOOT! I'M BACK, WITH THE FINAL CHAPTER OF MOONLIGHT AND DAYLIGHT!

*crickets chirp and a tumbleweed rolls past*

Okay then…

Old Tachi: *with a walking stick and silver grey streaks in her fur* I got old waiting for you whippersnapper! And, Sammy's no better.

Sammy: WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU? WHAT DID YOU SAY?

Akemi: *is 27* Oh yeah. I'm not 17 anymore. I CAN DRINK!

Oops. I guess I need to be less lazy…erm, I'll correct this whole future thing later…

Chapter 34: Day of the wolf

*theme song plays*

After Shadow had done his whole 'epic quills blowing in the wind' thing, everyone headed to the library to plot against the fire demons wreaking much mayhem and chaos in the streets.

"It doesn't look nice out there…" Aby shivered as a dragon ran past the window she was peeking through.

"I have a plan…" Reimaru muttered. Everyone turned to look at him.

"First, we send Shadow with the Sceptre of Darkness to seal Mephiles, and second, we'll have to stop those…things…outside killing everyone."

"But…where would Mephiles be?" Shadow asked. Reimaru grinned.

"Seeing as he's the half of a sun god, or rather, sun demon, he'll be where his natural element is at his best. The local volcano."

"A local volcano? Is that even geographically possible?" Samuel wondered. He looked over at Swift, who was busy typing on a Netbook.

"And then, the old dude referred to as Earl Grey from now on, looked at the innocent cat who totally wasn't trying to, like get on his nerves!" she said aloud as she typed.

"Are we breaking the fourth wall again?" Reimaru muttered. Shadow nodded, and Reimaru turned to the reviewers reading this story, with an evil glint in his eyes.

"Creative fans. I know you're reading this. I have a message…you better send in ramen and maybe some chocolate because…I haven't received any offerings lately. I'm sure you don't want to be cursed…so send the ramen and chocolate in or else." he threatened.

"Reimaru, stop threatening the reviewers." Maria sighed.

"A demon's got to make his living somehow…" Reimaru continued to glare at the invisible readers of the story.

"Right…then, I'll see to Mephiles." Shadow said, unsure of how to react.

"You'll need this." Maria managed to yank the Sceptre of Darkness out of Tachi's paws, and she gave it to Shadow.

"MY SHINY!" Tachi screamed. She became quiet as Maria gave her a shiny rock.

"Shadow…are you sure you don't want anyone to go with you?" She asked. Shadow nodded firmly.

"Mephiles won't hesitate to kill any of you guys…it's better if I go." he said.

"Okay…come back safe…" Maria gave Shadow a hug, and he walked off, only to be jumped on by two fangirls. He sighed as Aby and Swift nearly hugged the life out of him.

"If you die, I'm becoming emo!" Swift announced.

"Yeah…come back soon!" Aby added. Shadow shook the girls off him, and ran off into the darkness.

"…We better go and help those people out there, you know." Blade muttered, looking at the sky. It was still a dark purple colour, but the moon was slowly moving across the sun.

A few minutes later, Shadow had reached the volcano, and was standing in the crater, searching for any sign of Mephiles.

"Come out and show yourself! I know you're there!" he shouted. The demon hedgehog slunk out of the shadows in front of him, and stopped, looking at Shadow.

"So…you think you have the strength to defeat me?" He asked.

"Yeah. You're going down!" Shadow yelled, waving the Sceptre and looking epic. Mephiles just laughed.

"It'll be a pleasure killing you…but, maybe I should leave you barely alive…so you can hear the screams of your dying friends as I erase this timeline and become…the Time Lord…"

"Mephiles…you do know that the title, 'Time Lord' is already taken, right?"

"Then, I'll become…the Time King. Enough talk, Shadow! Let us fight!"

And the final fight begun. Shadow dodged Mephiles' beams of energy, and managed to do a fancy spin kick and hit him in the head. As he was reaching for the Sceptre, Mephiles turned around.

"Oh, I can not be defeated so easily." Mephiles took out a pure orange jewel, and held it up. It had a small blue flame flickering inside it, but apart from that, it looked like a normal precious stone.

"This jewel boosts my powers…while I have it, you stand no chance of winning."

"We'll see about that…" Shadow growled.

Meanwhile, back in the main part of Soleanna, all the teams were trying to fight off the fire demons.

"Seriously…we need some water or something…" Akemi dodged around a demon trying to claw him to death, and hit it with a bat, making it poof away.

"Well, look around! We're in the freaking city of water!" Samuel shouted back, trying to stop a blazing wolf demon from burning him. Akemi turned, and saw a huge fat bird demon that resembled a chicken for some reason, evaporating all of the water out of the canals, leaving behind mud and some poor fish gasping for breath. The chicken turned around, and let out a terrifying cluck.

"A chicken?" Ace wondered.

"I don't care if it's a sparkling teenage vampire, kill it!" Samuel aimed at the chicken with his gun, and started shooting. It didn't have much effect on the giant bird, however.

The Team Outcast members were having to fight for themselves. Kaze lived up to his name and ran around a demon, making it get whirled up by strong winds, while Swift defended herself with a Chihuahua statue (called Chloe). Aby shivered as more demons appeared. Fighting wasn't really her strong point.

"ROOOAR!" a demon roared, towering over her. Aby slowly turned around, and he eyes went wide as she saw the demon's sharp fangs.

"Oh no…" she muttered, backing away into the wall. The demon grinned, advancing, when Aby got an idea.

"I'm rather sorry for this…" she said, and kicked the demon in the nuts. The demon's eyes rolled in its head, and it slowly fell over, before vanishing.

Shadow was continuing to fight Mephiles, but he was slowly losing. He had a few cuts and burns, while Mephiles remained unharmed.

"Why don't you give up, Shadow? There's no way you can win…" he hissed.

"For a demon hedgehog, you're awfully over confident." Shadow kicked Mephiles into a wall, and watched as he struggled to stand up.

"You dare call me over confident? You're the one who calls himself the ultimate lifeform…" Mephiles groaned. Shadow picked up the Sceptre from where it had fallen, and went over to Mephiles.

"Sorry in advance for sealing you away." he said, holding out the shiny rod. A purple jewel on the top started glowing. Mephiles hissed, and got up. Shadow tried to avoid the attack, but Mephiles grabbed him by the throat.

"The eclipse is nearly complete…only a few more seconds before I claim what's mine…" he said. Shadow struggled around as Mephiles strangled him, but out of the corner of his eye he saw the moon finally block the sun.

And then everything went dark and silent.

Tachi peeked cautiously over a table. She was hiding in the library with Blade and Maria, who were hiding behind a bookshelf.

"Hey guys, do you think it's safe?" Tachi whispered. Blade was about to reply back when the same demon chicken from before crashed through the wall, trying to shake Samuel off its back.

"Stay still you-" he began to say, before a loud roar from above interrupted him.

"DON'T YOU DARE SAY THAT LINE FROM SHADOW'S GAME, OR I WILL GO RABID CRAZY FANGIRL!" the author, or rather Swift (who wasn't anywhere around in the library) yelled.

"Why can't the story be normal?" Samuel complained. The chicken shook him off, and was about to attack him, when a giant wolf burst through the hole in the wall, and slashed it with his claws, making the chicken vanish.

"Hey! You're that wolf!"

Spark growled as Samuel took out his gun, but Blade jumped in front of him.

"Wait! I can explain. This wolf is Spark…he's a shapeshifter." he explained quickly what had happened to Spark.

"He still killed three people though! Spark, you're not going to get away with this…"

Spark just whined and let his tail droop. Blade then turned to Tachi.

"Tachi, I've been wanting to say this for a while…I fancy you." he muttered, blushing under his fur. Tachi stared at him, shocked.

"Blade? SQUEEE!" she screamed, jumping on Blade to give him a hug. Maria sighed at the happy scene, while Spark brushed a tear out of his eye.

"Big freaking deal…" Samuel said to himself. Blade raised a middle finger up at him.

Shadow looked around his surroundings. He seemed to be in a pitch black void, and he could hear Mephiles laughing victoriously.

"…I failed in my task…I guess I'll just pass onto the afterlife…" Shadow collapsed, and let the darkness take over his mind, when suddenly there was a bright flash.

"HEY! You can't give up and die now! There's people out there who need you!" a voice shouted. Shadow looked up and saw a grey wolf with what looked like goggles perched on his head.

"And who might you be?" he asked.

"I'm surprised you don't know. Now come on! You'll have to seal Mephiles while I distract him." the wolf barked.

Mephiles was still laughing evilly, as he prepared to wipe out the timeline. But he failed to see the hedgehog he thought was dead slowly rising behind him.

"Finally…without that meddling Shadow in my way, nothing, nothing at all will stop me from erasing this timeline, and bringing in a new age!" he shouted.

"HEY, MEPHY!" the wolf shouted from in front of him. Mephiles looked up and recognised him.

"What business do you have here? You're supposed to be dead, and your dear son should be with you…"

"Oh really? You haven't noticed anything missing?"

Mephiles glanced around, and saw the Sceptre of Darkness was missing. Then he turned and saw a smirking Shadow holding it.

"YOU! Why don't you just give up and die already!" he hissed. Shadow shrugged.

"I've died many times before. There was that fall from the ARK, that second fall, when Samuel shot me, and when I drowned…it's hard to die when you're immortal, you know."

"Well, I'll just have to separate your soul from your body!" Mephiles lifted a hand, but cried out in pain as some sunlight shone down.

"What…? What is this…" he growled.

"You're going back in the Sceptre. Sorry about that…" Shadow held the Sceptre out, and watched as Mephiles was dragged kicking and screaming towards it.

"NO! I refuse to go back to that prison! I'll destroy you! NOOOO!" Mephiles turned into a purple cloud, which was pulled into the Sceptre.

"This isn't the end Shadow! The demon goddess, ancestor to all demon foxes will awaken when the silver moon rises! You will suffer the curse of Ninetails!" Mephiles' voice echoed, before going silent.

"Game over, Mephiles." Shadow looked around, but realised the wolf was gone. He decided to enjoy the moment, and basked in the daylight.

So, after a long, epic, random and maybe pointless filler journey to Soleanna, Mephiles was defeated. The Sceptre of Darkness was given to the local museum for some strange reason, and the teams packed up their stuff and started the long journey home. They avoided the desert jackal territory, so no troubles arose.

When they got back to Station Square, Spark was immediately arrested and sentenced to suspended animation, but Blade managed to persuade, or rather, bribe Samuel with the promise of iced coffee every morning, and Spark became a GUN agent. He rather liked the weapons in the job, and crime rates in Station Square soon dropped because criminals didn't want to be chased by a killer wolf.

Team Outcast started holding a Shadow Fangirls Association club in the local library, and Shadow was never seen in that area again. Swift finally got Solatorobo, and challenged Kaze to an air race, while Aby got some coke and helped people to learn how to kick someone in the nuts (and Sammy was one of her unfortunate victims, but that's for another story)

Akemi was dragged screaming and acting rather undignified by Hikari and Paul to the hairdressers. He got his hair trimmed, so he could finally see properly, but he still had the hairstyle of an Old English Sheepdog. He really was, and still is, protective of his hair.

Samuel got coffee delivered by Blade every morning.

Tachi eventually moved in with Blade and Spark, despite the fact Rouge insisted the relationship was awkward and wouldn't work, due to Blade being a rat and Tachi being a jackal.

Eggman turned up in a dog kennel for some reason, because he was accidently turned into a Shiba-Inu with an epic moustache.

And Amy moved even more closely to Sonic's house. The famous blue blur swore that she was stalking him, and tried to get a restraining order, but it didn't work.

As for Reimaru and Tsuki, they left for the spirit world, but not before leaving Shadow with the curious jewel Mephiles had stolen from Tsuki. Maria continued to be an epic Pokémon Trainer.

The wolf appeared to yell at people who said 'Old Guy' frequently.

And that's the end of this story.

But what did Mephiles mean, Ninetails will rise? All will be revealed in the final part in the Shadow and Light Trilogy, where there'll be…

-Another epic quest with filler

-Okami references

-Loads of plot twists!

-A certain OC who likes vodka, cough, Levinski, cough.

-And much more…

Tachi: Chaos and Control! It'll come out when Swift finishes playing Solatorobo!

TO THE CREDITS!

Lucy Labrador-Thanks for allowing your OC to be in the story, and thanks for being an awesome epic friend!

Hande-erm, I mean, Levinski Prower-For reviewing every chapter, and owning Sammy!

Darkrose-I don't know where you are, but thanks for submitting your OC! I think I epically failed, though…sorry…erm, if you're still reading this story, I take requests.

And every other reviewer for taking the time to review! Now, to the characters!

Shadow-Awesome. Epic. Cuteness. Nuff said.

Maria-As awesome as Shadow!

Tei-Your boss is hard in Okami, but you're EPIC!

Sammy-The only complement I have is, you have cool eyes.

And thanks to any other Sonic character I missed!

To the cool people: Special thanks to a certain person in Year 12…you know who you are, and thanks for giving me advice many times, and not looking at me funny when you read some of my story. Congratulations on your grades!

To Kaze-Thanks for introducing me to Solatorobo, and being probably the only other Sonic fan in the school I know.

Tachi: That about wraps up the credits!

Tachi, I think it's prophesising time.

Tachi:…right…I'll read out the prophesy for the next story then.

'On the night of the full moon, the white fox will rise again, and threaten to unbalance the world with darkness. One of the shadows shall arrive, the other shall fall and rise. Chaos will not be controlled, black and white will turn to grey, and the fox will claim all at the demon's gateway.

But peace won't come until the spirit who is dead and alive slays the fox with the sunlit sword and the hawk flies in the sky. Heed my words, listen to the hero with the crystal sword and fur as green as grass, and before the jackal howls, the darkness will turn to light. Those who seek the sword of light, defeat the one who leads the chaos and the night.'

And that's the only preview of the plot you reviewers are getting. I wonder, are there hidden character references in there…?

Swiftshadow123, signing off!

Tachi: Bye!

Reimaru: DON'T FORGET MY OFFERINGS!
