Jordan tossed and turned in her sleep. She kept hearing Alter Tony's voices in her head. It was giving her horrible nightmares.

"He found hell..." were the words she heard him say, over, and over, and over again.

"He found hell... and you will too!"

Jordan woke up, breathing heavily. She hadn't been able to sleep well for the past few nights. The terrible nightmares kept haunting her. She went to the kitchen and got a glass of water. She took a sip of it and went back to the bed.

"Sis, are you okay?" Calli said. Somehow her sister noticed that Jordan wasn't okay, otherwise she wouldn't be out of bed late at night. "You don't look well."

"Just the nightmares." Jordan swallowed another gulp of water. "What did he do to you?"

"What did he do to me?"

"You've been having nightmares of him." Calli noted. "He's done something to you." Jordan looked down sadly, but Calli put a hand on her shoulder, reassuring her. "Don't think about that right now, okay? Just get some sleep and it'll go away."

"I'll try." Jordan said.

But she didn't sleep well. She woke up two more times. She didn't want to remember anymore. But no matter how many times she tried, she couldn't escape the pain.

More days passed, and Jordan started getting bad cases of insomnia. The nightmares kept coming in waves. Jordan kept tossing and turning in bed, hoping she could be rid of them.

She then woke up again, remembering something she heard not too long ago.

"Those numbers..." she muttered, "from the radio..."

"It wasn't an error... it was a message..."

Jordan got out of bed and went to where she broke the radio. With a bit of patchwork, she fixed it up. She took the radio back to her room and tried to find the signal.

"Come on... come on..." she muttered, trying to get the radio to work. Over time, she tired herself out while trying to get the radio to work, and all the insomnia got to her, causing her to pass out.

Jordan opened her eyes and found herself inside some sort of dark void. Somehow she could sense something behind her, as she turned around and noticed Alter Tony standing there.

"You again?!" Jordan stuttered, shocked by his appearance in her mind. "I've had enough of you!" Alter Tony shifted the movement of his muzzle, as if he were smirking. "Not so keen on facing the inevitable, eh Jordan?" he asked.

Jordan glared at him. "You'll see! We'll take you down before you can hurt any of us!" she yelled.

"You arrogant child..." Alter Tony taunted, "I've already begun my attack." He then disappeared as he levitated backwards.

"The moment you crossed into my domain.., you sealed your fate." Jordan looked around as his voice echoed around in her mind.

"Do you know what it means to be afraid?" he said, appearing behind her. She turned around, only to see nothing there.

"Do you understand your own fears?" he asked her, standing to her left. Jordan quickly flinched, but saw nothing.

"You will." he assured her. "And you won't know anything else." He then appeared in front of Jordan, causing her to bump into an unseen wall.

"Because I don't create the fear." he told her.

Suddenly, Jordan's eyes widened as Alter Tony grew a claw from his finger and cut his muzzle open, tearing himself a new mouth, revealing razor-sharp and a long deformed tongue.

"I AM THE FEAR."

He then wiped his mouth, causing it to disappear, reverting it back to a plain mouthless muzzle. "In time, you will see. And don't bother interfering!"

"You'll DIE if you try..."

Jordan woke up, breathing heavily. She noticed that Calli was sitting next to her as she was laying down. "You okay, sis?" she asked, softly patting her head. Jordan nodded, despite knowing she clearly wasn't okay. Calli helped her up out of bed, and the two got up, only to see Sonic looking out the window.

"Girls?" Sonic called. "You might want to see this."

Outside, Jordan and the others saw Tony, who was limping along, trying to walk back home to them. "J-Jordan?" Tony stuttered, as he looked up at her.

"T... TONY!!" Jordan rushed over to him, only to feel a strike of lighting occur right under her feet. "Keep away from my vessel." Alter Tony stated, levitating from the sky. "You again!" Jordan growled, getting up. "Can't you just leave us alone?!"

"You interfere with my plans." Alter Tony stated. "For that, I will have your heads!" The evil entity then deformed his arms and latched them onto the weakened Tony, taking over his mind.

Once Alter Tony went inside Tony's body, he could feel his body go through intense pain. His fur had turned dark purple, his spines had risen up as his body started to glow with dark energy, two horns appeared onto his forehead, claws growing from his hands as he scratched the surface, and two wings grew from his back.

"T-Tony?" Jordan stuttered, looking at what he had become. Tony looked up at them, and roared at them, revealing the razor-sharp teeth he had gained from his form. Jordan backed away, afraid.
