Chapter 43: The aftermath

We see Knothole slowly repairing after Eggman's attack as many citizens of Knothole help out to repair as much buildings as they can. They fill up the holes on the streets as well and rebuild the walls and try to make them a lot more stronger so they be ready for another surprised attack by any other threat.

Inside the Acorn Castle we see Sally, Elisa and Alicia as Elisa  sighs to himself while he looks around at his castle to see the damage Eggman has made to the place as he says.

Elisa: This will take a long while for us to repair the damages Eggman had done.

Alicia: Indeed. But let's be glad that Eggman is now locked up and he'll get what he deserves for all the things he has done.

Sally: Mom is right. Now Eggman is locked up, we can now started rebuilding Mobotropolis after for a long time.

Elisa: Yeah your right. We can start getting rid of everything that involves around Eggman and make Mobotropolis great again.

Starline: Yes and possible making Mobotropolis a lot more stronger by putting strict rules on the citizens.

Then Starline came into the throne room while pushing Maximilian's wheel chair which Sally breath in a sigh of relief and rushes up to him.

Sally: Dad are you okay?

He just nodes while Sally feels like he has changed ever since Eggman attack Knothole.

Elisa: What do you mean Starline?

Maximilian: We come to agreement that we cannot allow this to happen again. Eggman may have defeated yes but who knows what the next threat that might come. All we know, our own citizens could Start another war more worse then Eggman has done.

Sally: (shocked) What?! You can't be serious father?

Maximilian: Oh I am. That's why until this day strict rules must be made in order to control the citizens as well as the other kingdom and all around Mubuis as well.

Alicia: Surely that won't be necessary right? Those are our citizens, why would they think starting another war will be a good idea?

Starline: Have you already forgotten about he Dark Legion? They serve to Eggman and who knows how many they are, they could be some here right now plotting to start another war or trying to break out Eggman.

Elisa: Well......that is true. The Dark Legion can blend in among the citizens very easily.

Starline: Exactly but it's not my decision to decide. I should allow the king to decide what we should do.

Elisa looks down onto the ground while he thinks about the idea while Starline smirks a bit seeing that Elisa is thinking about it and now he just have to wait.

(Meanwhile)

We see Y/n sitting by the lake on his own as he sit on the grass looking down at his own reflection of the lake as he stare at his own reflection as he still remembered how he nearly kills Eggman in his fit of rage and nearly killed the whole planet.

He sat there in silence trying his best to forget about it but he just can't. It's still inside his head and he can't get rid of it. He shut his eyes trying his best to forget but he hears the screams, gunfire, flames and thunder strikes in his head and it wasn't long for someone beside him to ask him.

???: You okay?

He open his eyes and turn to see Amy as she sat beside him while Y/n shake his head and tells Amy.

Y/n: No. I'm not. I just......I just can't stop remembering what I did. How I nearly killed Eggman and how all of you were scared of me. I....I didn't mean to scare all of you I swear.
