Episode 65 {1}

Previously on Sonic The Hedgehog - Chaos on Mobius... {2}
After Zonic crashed on Planet Wisp, Sonic stood by his side until he recovered. After Sonic swore to secrecy, Zonic told him about Zpacefleet, before they checked on his wrecked ship.
Before they knew it, Queen Rosalina and some of her Lumas repaired Zonic's ship! And after giving Sonic another Luma, telling him to give it to someone called Mario, Rosalina left.
Before Zonic even crashed on Planet Wisp, Sonic merged with a Black Arm-Wisp Hybrid, which gave him the side effect of a black and red mark on his arm. And after Black Soil took control over his body, the mark only spread further, making Sonic think that it's an infection.
Why is a Luma so important to get to Mario? And how long until the infection on Sonic's arm spreads all over him? Find out next on Sonic The Hedgehog - Chaos on Mobius!

Chapter Fifthteen: Sonic the Black Arm

A few days after Zonic left Planet Wisp, the mark on Sonic's arm seemed to get blurry as it was spreading... but he didn't let it bother him, as he was currently playing what looked like soccer with Yacker and Black Soil on his team, against Cici, Salem and Rose. {3}
"Yo, Black Soil! Pass it! I'm open!" Sonic shouted as he waved his arms. When Black Soil kicked the ball to Sonic, he was moving pretty fast with it once he got the ball. So fast in fact, that no one even noticed that Sonic had kicked it into the goal! "Yeah! Team Sonic: 5, Team Cici: Zip!"
"C'mon Sonic, it's not fair the way you use your speed like that." Said Cici as Sonic spun the ball on his finger.
"Hey, all's fair in love, war and soccer." Sonic replied before chuckling as he kicked the ball up into the air, but when it came back down, it was reduced to ash... "That can't be-AAH!" Sonic fell to the ground, holding his arm in pain.
"Sonic, what's wrong?" Cici asked as she knelt down to him.
"They're... coming..." Was all Sonic said before passing out, and Black Soil sensed something similar...
"The Black Arms..." She said to the cats.
"Quick, let's get the Chaos Stars int-"
"We have no need for the Chaos Stars today..." Said a familiar dark voice. When Black Soil, Yacker and the three cats turned around, they saw Black Doom's third eye, Axtius, Asunta and a number of Black Arm-Wisp Hybrids standing (or floating) before them. {4}

"Black Doom!" Exclaimed Black Soil in anger.
"Is that anyway to treat your father, Black Soil?" Black Doom asked her, to which she spat at him.
"We only want one thing from you all today..." Stated General Axtius.
"...and that's that cute blue hedgehog behind you." Asunta finished. Hearing this, Black Soil, Yacker, Cici and Salem stood in front of Sonic, to try and protect him.
"Hahahahaha... ignorant fools..." Said Black Doom. "If you will not obey me, the son of my creation will!" As he said that, all of the Wisp Hybrids flew into Sonic's body, causing him to shake uncontrollably. Eventually, his body melted into the black and red liquid substance from before.
"Sonic!" Cried Cici and Black Soil.

Before anyone could say anything else, what looked like Sonic emerged from the liquid, only he was black with red stripes on his legs and former quills, and his eyes were yellow, similar to a standard Black Arm soldier. {5}
"Sonic?" Asked Black Soil, who seemed to slightly fear Sonic's new look.
"Now Black Blur, eliminate these fools." Black Doom ordered. Without a second thought, Sonic jumped into the air, and used his Homing Attack to knock Cici, Black Soil, Salem and Rose unconscious with ease! "Hahahahahaha... excellent work, Black Blur. Now let us return to the Black Comet." After the clouds spiral down to their location and disappeared, Black Doom, Sonic (now Black Blur), Axtius and Asunta were gone!

Meanwhile, within Captain Zally's quarters onboard Zpacefleet's flagship, she and her First Officer, Commander Zonic were watching live footage from Planet Wisp, when they witnessed Sonic's sudden betrayal before their very eyes! {6}
"Sweet, merciful Chaos..." Said Zally, as she stared at the screen. "Why on Mobius would he turn on them like that?"
"It wasn't his fault, Zally..." Zonic told her.
"Hey, we're still on duty, so it's Captain Zally to you."
"Right, sorry. But, it's not Sonic's fault... it was the Black Arms that did this to him!" Hearing this, Zally's eyes widened.
"Ensign Znuckles, bring us about! We're going back to Planet Wisp." She ordered.
"...may I ask why, ma'am?" Asked Znuckles via communicator.
"We're going to fight the Black Arms, so prepare all weapons and fighters!" After Zally issued her orders, she looked over at Zonic, who seemed a little down. "It's okay, Zonic. We'll get him back."
"I hope you're right Zal- uhh, Captain." Zonic replied, making Zally smile.

Back on Mobius, Shadow arrived at a house in Mercia, where he saw a familiar green echidna unconscious throught the window. {7}
"TodStar!" Shadow exclaimed before he burst through the door, getting the attention of Mari-An, Percival and Fiona. "What happened to him?"
"Lancelot?" Asked Percival, mistaking Shadow for a Knight of Mercia.
"My name is Shadow." He replied. "What has happened to my apprentice?"
"I had him help me look for Scourge, when all of a sudden, he passed out." Said Fiona.
"I suspect that it was during the time of Little Planet's return to Never Lake." Mari-An pointed out as Shadow nodded.
"Hmm... that makes sense." He said. "But isn't there some way to get him out of this?"
"Perhaps I can help..." Said another female voice. When Shadow, Percival, Mari-An and Fiona turned to the doorway, they saw a young Overlander girl with dark purple hair which was platted. She wore a tiara, two rings, a purple dress which was covered by a pink cloak, and she was carrying a rather big staff that had a sphere with what looked like water within it.

"Merlina?" Asked Percival. "You shouldn't be here. You know it's dangerous for you to be out in the open!"
"I know, but I want to help this poor Mobian." Said the girl that Percival called Merlina. "I would like to take him back to my master's cave."
"Then you're taking me, too." Shadow told her.
"Very well." Merlina replied, before she held her staff out in front of her, allowing dust to spiral around herself, Shadow and TodStar. Before anyone knew it, the three of them were gone!
"No!!" Fiona screamed before running out of Mari-An's house... "I need him!"

At that moment, within the Black Comet, Black Doom was with Black Blur in a large chamber, and he was attempting to read the former hedgehog's mind... {8}
"Ngh... Grr..." Black Doom was struggling to obtain what he wanted, as Sonic's memories seemed to block him. "You cannot deny me!" Before he could make a third attempt though, everything started shaking. "What? What is this?"
"Leader, it appears that Zpacefleet know about Black Blur." Said Axtius.
"Hmhmhm... no matter." Black Doom replied, after looking at Sonic. "Black Blur, show these fools your true strength!" Sonic nodded before running off to fight the outside threat.

Outside the Black Comet, all of Zpacefleet had begun their attack on the asteroid! {9}
"Commander, you and your squadron are go for launch!" Said Captain Zally as Zonic was waiting for the word.
"Aye, Captain! All right boys, let's rock!" Zonic replied as he and his squadron blasted out of the flagship, and immedietly started blasting at the Black Comet! While many black bird-like creatures emerged from the Black Comet, they were no match for Zpacefleet's firepower! "Heh. Scratch one bogey." Said Zonic as he vaporized what his computer called a Black Hawk.
"Ahh! Zonic, help!" Cried Zails, as was being chased by what looked like a Black Hawk, but it had armor on its head.
"Zails, quick, do a barrel roll!" Zally shouted into the communicator as the creature fired a missile-like projectile at Zails. Just before it connected with his ship however, Zails spun around pretty quick, making the attack bounce off of one of his ships wings, and destroy the creature that launched it!
"Yeah, I got one!" Cheered Zails as his computer identified the creature as a Black Volt.

"Okay, I'm going in." Zonic pointed out as he piloted his ship down towards the Black Comet. "Cover me, Znivley."
"Heh heh. I'm right behind you, Z Leader." Said an Overlander with a long nose, as he followed Zonic. Once they were close enough, both Zonic and Znivley fired down on the asteroid. "Okay, I've got a bit of a problem here..." Znivley said, as he detected something on the outside of the Black Comet. {10}
"LASER!!" It shouted in a distorted voice, as it ran after them at an impressive speed.
"Eject, Lieutenant." Zonic told him, unaware of their follower.
"No, I can hold it." Znivley replied as he turned around to face the being.
"Znivley, pull up!" Ordered Zonic.
"No I-NAAAARGH!!" Screamed Znivley as he was shot down by something small, running along the Black Comet, firing purple lasers at him and Zonic.

"What in the Realm of Iblis is that?!" Asked Zonic before he got his visor to zoom in on the lifeform... it was a Black Arm, but it looked familiar in shape... {11}
"*bzz* What is it, Zonic?" Asked Zally via communicator.
"It's... it's Sonic!" Zonic struggled to reply.
"ROCKET!!" The hedgehog now known as Black Blur shouted, before four purple missiles (including Sonic) were fired at Zonic's ship. Zonic managed to weave his way through all of the attacks. "VOID!!" All of a sudden, Sonic turned into a large black hole that was starting to suck in Zonic's ship!
"Ahh! Mayday, mayday!! I'm caught in the black hole's current!" Zonic shouted, which got Zally's attention.
"Zonic!!" She cried as she had her hands on the glass seperating the bridge of the flagship from the space on the outside.

At that moment, Bowser the Koopa was walking through Babylon Volcanica slowly, as he was exhausted. {12}
"*groan* I can't wait to get home..." He said. "How does Mario do all this running around?" Just then, three Mobian birds on boards zoomed past Bowser at a high speed! "Ngh! Hey! Watch where you're going!" Not bothering with the birds that were no longer visible to him, Bowser continued his walk home, only to find that the same kind of soldiers he'd dealt with before were now walking into his castle, making him mad...
"What?! I thought I got rid of them..." He grumbled as he stomped towards his castle in anger. Little did he know that a Mobian in a similar uniform was following him... "When I find that Ix, I'm gonna stomp him into- UGH!!" Someone had hit Bowser in the back of his head, knocking him out. The Mobian that did so was Nicole, but she had red eyes, and the Nocturnus uniform on! {13}

"Lord Ix, I have knocked Bowser unconscious." She said after revealing a Chatter Ring with Imperator Ix inside it.
"Excellent work, Nicole-Phi." Ix replied. "Now all we need is Princess Peach and the rest of the Chaos Emeralds for our plan to succeed. Bring His Highness back to 'his' castle."
"At once, my lord." Nicole replied before the Chatter Ring returned to her hand.
