7 Continents, 7 Crystals Part 5: Cool as the Rising Sun

Amy: *thought* Oh what do I do?! I can't really do anything against spirits like this!

*Sal groans*

Sal: Ooh.

Amy: Sal are you ok?

Sal: I'm not the one you...

*They look up and see Tails*

Amy: Oh no.

Tails: *flying away from the shadow* GET AWAY FROM ME!!!

*Sal turns to Amy*

Sal: Well mighty leader, any ideas?

Amy: I-I....I don't know! I wasn't expecting something like this! But It won't stop until it gets the crystal.....Hmm...Wait a minute..

*Sal smiles*

Sal: I know that look!

Amy: Wait here! *runs off* Try to hold it off for me!!

*Sal looks up and sees a possessed Tails*

Sal: Here goes...

"Tails": I HAVE NO TIME FOR THIS! NOW GIVE ME THE CRYSTAL!!

*Sal flies toward Tails*

Sal: Apologies in advance Tails!

"Tails": *pulls an explosive from his pocket* You should be! *throws it at Sally*

*Sal dives away from the blast*

Sal: WHOA!

"Tails": *tackles Sally*

*Sal struggles*

Sal: Ungh! Ungh!

"Tails: *growls*

*Suddenly*

Amy: *Runs out* HEY YOU SHADOWY CREEP!

"Tails": Hmm? *looks*

Amy: Looking for this?! *holds out the "crystal" *

*Sal looks round*

Sal: Amy whatever you're going to do, do it fast!

Amy:.......You can have the crystal.

"Tails": *grins* HA HA HA! YES!

Sally: What?!

Amy: BUT...you have to promise to leave this village forever...oh yeah and exit my friend's body.

*Sal is red with anger*

Sal: Amy? What is wrong with you?

Amy: I'm sorry Sally....It's for the better....*quickly winks at her*

*Sal nods*

Sal: Okay...but I don't like it!

*The being exits Tails body and grabs the crystal*

ShadowBeing: Yes....It's finally mine!!! *laughs as he flies off and disappears*

Amy: *watches him vanish....with a smile of confidence on her face*

*Sal and Amy turn and see Tails*

Tails: W...What just happened?

Amy: In short, we just fought some ancient being and saved the crystal.

*Tails looks confused*

Tails: But...you just gave away the crystal?

Amy: Oh...*reaches behind her back and pulls out...the crystal?!*...did I?

Tails: Whoa! How did-?!

Amy: Easy. That thing wasn't going to leave unless it got its shadowy hands on it. So while Sally was fighting you, or rather the shadow IN your body, I ran back into village and had the king make me a copy.
