Milo, Camille, Souless Alfred, and Maria walked home from school after learning about "black magic" from Vivi, their new teacher who took Mr. Rusard's place after his strange death. They didn't know he died. He has 31 years left. And he died too quick. It was wierd. And serious mysteries, too. That's what Milo thinks. And that's what his real Alfred would think, too. Only if he were not dark anymore. Only if it happened. Maria wanted to help him get out of the situation. Only if she has powers. Besides "So, Alfred," He said to the dark hedgehog, who soon looked at him with his red, cat eyes, "I know you'll say no, but would you like to go to Nibbles's house for his tomato sauce flavors? He didn't want to do this alone. Besides, he may be like eighteen years old, but he if he tastes all the flavors in one mouth, it'll ruin his sauce," Souless Alfred looked at him like if he was asking him a question. Why would a need a help of teamwork come when there is Shinu working to do? But he loved the tomatoes the Articuno baker makes. And he hates having two choices between Shinu and life. If he goes to Shinu's layer, he'll miss the tomato flavors. If tomato flavors, there's a possible reason the monster may kill him. "Well, I would but," He replied in dark tone, hearing a voice in his eye. A sudden glow speaked out... "DON'T YOU DARE GO ACT LIKE A FOOL! HOW CAN THERE BE TALKING ABOUT TOMATOES WHEN THERE IS KILLING TO DO? HUH?! HOW CAN THERE BE?!" That voice was so dark he took control of his mind. Almost completly. He putted his hands on his hands, trying to get Shinu out of his mind. But the more he tried to get him out of his mind, the more the eye glowed into flames. And soon, rage and insanity took over his body. And that was because of the angery voice of his eye. The rage build up until... "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO..." Milo, at that time, heard the answer that was no. Why did he, Souless Alfred, say that? If he did not get his soul taken, none of this would happen. Besides, his cloths are nohing but black and gray. And the scar nearly hurt him. And all he could hear was Shinu's voice. And that's all. He and everyone else wanted to cheer him up until... "Ah, just in time, you two! Not late at all!" The whole gang looked and saw Nibbles P. Artic standing there. What was he doing here?! Why was he standing in front of an blazing hedgehog with his red fire that has now faded away into firefly crisps. "I'm happy to have you all come for tomato testing. Cause hen I was young, I accidently tasted my first sause and I was like 'Was it somethng I just ate?' It was delicious and moist. So, wanna come?" Everyone said yes all expect Souless Alfred, who has disappeared from the forest. And they all went in for the tomatoes jiuce test. A.L.F.R.E.D. He walked silently into the dark forest that nearly has flames. And there was no sign of his friends. He looked around to see any sign of Zidane, a Alexandrian theif from another world, now joining Shinu's wrath. And he soon looked around for any sign of Milo. "No sign of that green shirted skunk," He said to himself, "That is good," "What do you mean good, Alfred Hedgehog?" XXX End of chapter 2... To be continued...
