A Thousand Years Of Sonic 34

  The lady or the dark?

Fiona was holding Scourge's hand as they walked down the basement of the mansion. "It should be down there close" said Fiona, Scourge stopped also stoping her, "Huh? Is there something wrong?" Fiona asked, Scourge stared at her eyes and shook his head. "Don't show it to me yet" he said quietly, "Well alright but may I ask why you change your mind so fast?" Fiona asked a bit thoughtful. "Please just don't show it to me yet" said Scourge, Fiona nod not asking once again and they went up. "Lady Fiona something terrible has happen to the chef, we found him this morning in the ground all lifeless" said one of the servants, "I'm on my way, excuse me Scourge but I will be attending something important right now" said Fiona. Scourge let her leave and he went to the garden he was now deep in though. He knew the reason why he didn't wanted Fiona to show him the sword because he knew he had to kill her in that instant, and he didn't wanted to do that. He felt a bit attached to Fiona he wasn't sure but he was feeling love for her, he was in love with Fiona. Scourge then stop near the trees and stared down at the grass for a moment. Scourge was so distracted that he was pinned against the tree, Scourge flinch and had his eyes shut as he felt kisses on his neck. When he opened his eyes it was Mephiles, Scourge for a moment Scourge enjoyed the sensation of his soft lips against his neck, "Your a naughty little hedgehog" Mephiles said, he kiss Scourge's lips. Scourge realized his mask was gone Mephiles must have ripped it off, "You can give me a good explanation why you didn't go with the plan?" Mephiles asked, Scourge put a hand on Mephiles chest and pushed him away, "I don't have to give you any explanation" said Scourge turning away, "Well something tells me you got a little too attached to this Fiona" said Mephiles he put his hand on Scourge's shoulder and whisper to him. "If you ask me you seem a bit attached to her in such a short time" said Mephiles tempting Scourge. Scourge stared at Mephiles over his shoulder he looked a bit worried, "Yes you don't want to kill her" said Mephiles, Scourge lower a bit his ears. "I can't get her out of my mind, I'm in love with her" said Scourge lowly, "I'm sorry to hear that, besides the fact you belong to me and that in the end you will have to kill her anyway" said Mephiles. Scourge sigh he knew that was true sooner or later he would have to kill Fiona that was his mission. "Don't treat me like that" Scourge said, Mephiles smirked laying his hand on Scourge's shoulder wrapping his arms around Scourge's waist, "No she can see us" said Scourge trying to get free, "Good that way she knows and will realize that you are already taken" said Mephiles. Scourge got out of Mephiles arms the hard way, "Look.... Give me more time and I will deal with Fiona" said Scourge, "Give her this then if you can't kill her directly" said Mephiles handing a bottle of poison to Scourge. Scourge stared at it and grabbed it, "Also make sure you don't back down" said Mephiles walking away. Scourge glared staring at him then he turned to return to the castle where he found Fiona she looked worried and was going strait to Scourge's direction. "Hmm?" Scourge stopped her before bumping into each other, "Oh Scourge I'm sorry I just have allot of things in my head..." she said then staring at the ground concern, "Is there something bothering you?" Scourge asked. "Well now that you asked it's about the ball I was planing to have it tonight but with the chefs death, it's now turned into a problem cause there might be a killer in the house. Yet the medic said that it seemed to be a natural death" said Fiona, "Then what is holding you back?" Scourge asked, "Well no one seems to want to decorate and the person that decorated was the sister but she seems to down to do so" said Fiona. "Decorate? .... Maybe I can do that" said Scourge, "Really?" Fiona asked surprise. "It can't be that easy besides there is nothing to do here anyway" said Scourge crossing his arms, "Alright then come with me" said Fiona grabbing his arm taking him to the ballroom. Fiona had a lot of decorations there, "Well here is a list of how I want them arraigned" said Fiona giving it I him then she realized she was missing something. "Oh I must have left them in the kitchen be right back, Fiona went to the kitchen picking up a box. "Scourge is such a nice gentleman maybe he will need help decoration I should ask him if he needs help someone in the mansion should be available" thought Fiona as she went back to him. Her expression was shocking when she entered the room and saw that it was all done, "Scourge? Did you really did all this in such short time?" Fiona asked. "It wasn't too complicated now where should this go?" Scourge asked opening the box, "Huh.... Right next to the curtains above" said Fiona still amazed and shocked at the same time. Scourge put the decorations where she told him.

In the instant Scourge did it with unexplainable speed, Fiona stared at him. "Your amazing" said Fiona, Scourge looked over at her as she seemed easily impressed, "Your speed I have never seen anyone that can do that before" said Fiona, it was kinda cute of her to react that way. Scourge blush looking away, "Thank you so much, here is your reward from me to you" said Fiona, Scourge then turned back to face her and in that instant he was kiss on the cheek. Scourge's cheeks changed to a bright red color it was so unexpected he stared at Fiona surprise. Fiona giggled and smiled at him, "It's a thank you kiss tonight the ball will be amazing and I hope you will be present at a honorable guess" said Fiona. Scourge nod, but the thought that ran through his mind made him feel uncomfortable. He knew that this mean he had to take the mission on sooner than he thought but he was getting closer and closer to Fiona everyday he wasn't sure of to kill her or poison her. He knew if it wasn't him, Mephiles would do it instead. "My mission is to get the Midnight should not to go on insignificant events with anyone" he thought but then he wanted to go, just to make Fiona happy he was in love with her. He was sure of that, but he knew he couldn't he already belong to someone else. That was Mephiles he did felt something for Mephiles but it was nothing compared for what he had felt for Fiona. Scourge closed his eyes as a rain of emotions took over him not ready for night nor the ball. Scourge was in his room that he had to say goodbye to later, he wasn't ready to go down. He was wearing the outfit Fiona had have him for the special moment and so he also had to wear a mask. Scourge sigh getting out of the room and went down the stairs looking around for many women and men dressed elegantly and from all the ones Scourge saw. He spotted Mephiles not far well dressed and had a mask of his own he called Scourge over to him. "Mephiles what are you doing here?" Scourge asked, Mephiles put a arm around him pressing their bodies together, "I'm keeping a eye on you so you won't blow out chances" said Mephiles, "Stop it we are out in public" said Scourge, "What your afraid that woman you are in love with can see us?" Mephiles asked, Scourge pushed him away getting out of his arms after a few struggles. Scourge glared at Mephiles mad and he returned the glare, "Don't forget the plan and the reason we are here, like it or not she must die tonight. I have spoken with Hades and he said he wants the job done as soon as possible you got that?" Mephiles said. Scourge's eyes widen and stared at the floor, he pulled out the little bottle with poison. Scourge then nod with disappointment he had wish he had a little more time. "Scourge!" Fiona called going to him, Mephiles smirked, "Don't worry the sooner this is over the quicker things will pass by" said Mephiles. He walked away leaving him with Fiona, "Scourge I'm glad your here.... Huh what's the matter is something troubling you?" Fiona asked, Scourge hide the little bottle and shook his head, "No let us continue with this ball" said Scourge. "Well I was wondering if you wanted to dance just now" Fiona suggested, "Dance? I don't do that?" Scourge said, "It's easy come with me I will help you" said Fiona she took him out. Fiona grabbed Scourge's hand putting it on her hip, she placed her hand on Scourge's shoulder and held each others free hand. Scourge watch carefully the dance was easy to do and follow, and so continue they. "You learn so quickly" said Fiona, "It's nothing hard but I don't tend to this with anyone" said Scourge, "Well I'm glad to know I was the exception" said Fiona laying her head on his chest. "The only exception?" Scourge thought, "I'm glad I got to meet you Scourge even if it has been for a short time, I feel bond to you" she said. Scourge knew what she meant since he felt the same way, "Yes I feel the same way" he said, "Those words make me so happy" she said. The dance was finally over but the night keep going and the hours pass by. Scourge and Fiona grabbed a glass of punch but there is where it had to star, Scourge thought about too much. He had to put the poison in the drink and so that is were he felt like he was going to die with her if he did so. "Why? Why can't I just do it?! I curse the day I felt this way for her" thought Scourge as he finally pour some poison in her drink it all the pain in the world he did it. He went to Fiona and gave her the glass of punch, "Thank you Scourge" she said as he she quickly commenced to drink it. Fiona smiled at him, "Hey maybe we should go to the garden now" she suggested grabbing his hand heading there. Scourge acted like everything was okay but he more than anyone knew it wasn't.

Outside in the garden everything was peaceful and quiet, it was well cared for the plants. And the bushes with many flowers, "I'm having a great time with you Scourge" said Fiona, Scourge looked over at her. She commenced to walk between the bushes of flowers with Scourge by her side. "The night is perfect and the moon is bright and full. My daddy use to tell me at a full moon two people fall in love easily by it's presence and means good luck for them" said Fiona. "I hope that is true and that luck comes to me at this moment" thought Scourge, "Scourge? Do you feel like that is true?" Fiona asked, "What?" He turned his full attention to her. "I just want to know if you feel the same way I have.... Even for a short time I am certain of one thing Scourge I truly like you a lot" she said, Scourge stared at her his chest felt so alive in him so active. He hugged Fiona, "Yes.... I love you too" he said, Fiona hugged him back it was so sudden but she returned the happiness. It wasn't long till Fiona started to cough a little, Scourge quickly let her go looking at her, "Looks like I'm getting ill or so" said Fiona. Scourge knew it wasn't no sickness the poison was already affecting her. Fiona continue to cough then she started to cough even louder spitting out allot of blood. She looked frighten and was staring to feel dizzy, "Fiona" Scourge spoke as he grabbed her hand. Her body was collapsing but Scourge grabbed her settling her gently on the ground. Fiona cough a few times, "Scourge.... I don't know what is happening" she spoke weakly. Scourge watch in pain as his love was dying, his eyes started to tear up. Fiona smiled staring at him, "I guess..... This is my faith..." she spoke softly, Scourge's eyes widen. "I know what this is.... It means I'm leaving, I'm so sorry Scourge I wanted this to be different" she said coughing more blood. "Maybe it could have been... Scourge ... I love you... I hope maybe one day I will see you again" Fiona said as tears slide down her cheek mixing with the blood of her mouth. She closed her eyes and stopped moving, Scourge eyes widen he knew she was dead. He couldn't control his tears from falling, he left go of her hand and pulled out the bottle of poison he used to kill her. He weep in pain and sob, "Looks like every rose must die at some point but some have to be picked out to kill faster" said Mephiles as he was not far behind. "Mission completed, the Midnight Soul will be retrieved and we leave tonight" Mephiles approached Scourge turning him round grabbing his teary cheeks. Scourge tremble a little as he was in pain of a broken heart, Mephiles placed a kiss on the lips of the hedgehog. Scourge was so burry in his pain he did not care what Mephiles did anymore he let him kiss him, "Our mission has just began" said Mephiles.

That night at The underworld, "Hades Mephiles and Scourge have already retrieve the Midnight Soul, what is the next order?" Nightclaw asked. "They have it? Perfect looks like my plan is getting better and better... Nightclaw I want you and the other two to continue on the search for the chaos emeralds I'm going to need them very soon" said Hades. "Mark my words Zeus you may have won before by this time I assure you that I will be victorious" said Hades chuckling evilly.

To be continue......
