Reaper was on the rooftop where they split up on.


Luna looked away.

Knuckles sighed. "Thanks anyway." He said, picking the shard back up. "Do you mind if I take a look around here? I won't ranshak the place, just looking for clues."

Sonic shrugged. "Suit yourself."

"Go ahead but if you go behind the counter tell me." Eli said.
Stalker got up on the stage and a board broke under her.
"Meant to get that fixed." Eli muttered getting her out of there.
The wood looked burnt and flinsey in several places.


"You can go ahead if you want but I'll walk there." Ajal said knowing Sonic didn't like ebing slow.

Knuckles idly wandered around the area. He alredy knew exactly where the shard was being kept, but that wasn't what he was trying to find. He wasn't getting a sacred relic back by dishonest means. Right now, he was trying to see what he was up against.

"Well, then Knuckles would kill us both." Sonic chuckled. "But the offer stands."

"I'm good. Ajal said.


Eli watched his every move in a mirror.

The place looked like it had been through a few fires.

Knuckles tested the air, finding the scent of charcoal and smoke. "You said a Pyro did this? Who are they, exactly?"
---
Sonic flashed a small grin. "Okay."

"The Pyro gang they're arsonists they light fires to destroy stuff and I've target twice. Yesterday and fourteen years ago." Eli explained.


Ajal took another step back from Sonic.

"What else can you tell me about them?" The echidna asked.
---
Sonic shrugged and looked away. Sheesh, this wolf was a mine feild. Physical assurance? No. Casual smile? Brings up bad memories.

Ajal kept walking.


"Not much aside from they once worked for Val and normally have red or orange fur, quills, or feathers and are led by a mobian named Infernio." Eli told him what he knew.

Knuckles kept looking around. "Do you think they would go after Shadow?"

Sonic continued in silence.
