Italy part 3: Green Chaos Emerald



A while later after saying good bye to Venice and Avani, they go back to Tornado to get to Rome where the green chaos emerald is at the Roman Colosseum.
"I checked again guys for the Green chaos emerald. It's not in the forum of Rome but in the Colosseum itself, in the hallways where the arena was having its battles, there's no sand floor on the arena right now" Tails said.
“So it must be underneath the Colosseum. There’s gotta be a secret passage or something in the arena” Knuckles said.
"I believe it's where they used to keep the animals in" Tails said.
"That means we got to get pass the guards" Knuckles said.
“Oh, man. How can they put the animals in there? They don’t do those things anymore” Nebula said.
"That was in the past. They do no such thing anymore. We won't do that again" Tails said.

They found the Colosseum but there were no people or tourists in there which was quite odd and how quiet it is. All of a sudden, chariot horses neighed in fear, galloping really fast for no reason to get away from the Colosseum.
“Watch out!” Silver moved out of the way. Everyone moved out of the way too.
"What's going on here?!" Nebula gasped.
“Un mostro! Tutti scappare! E 'nel Colosseo! Correre per la vostra vita!” one of the tourists running away, passing the heroes. Along with everyone screaming in horror.
(Eng: A monster! Everybody run away! It’s in the Colosseum! Run for your lives!)
“What are they saying?” Blaze asked Silver.
“They’re saying there’s a monster in the Colosseum” Silver said.
Nebula gasped at what she saw; a non-mobian horse injured badly outside the Colosseum. She runs towards the horse and calms it down that she’s not gonna hurt him.
“Shh…shhh….it’s okay. I’m here to help. Now don’t move” Nebula’s hand glowed purple and she touched the horse’s wound on its hind leg to heal it.
The horse stopped neigh in pain and looked confused what she's doing. She had healed its hind leg.
"There, go and find your owner" Nebula said to the horse, it then ran away to find its owner. The heroes go to the guards to ask what's going on.
"Cosa sta succedendo? E quale mostro aspetto aveva?” Silver asked in Italian.
(Eng: What's going on? And what monster did it look like?)
"A proposito di pochi minuti fa. Sembra un centauro!" one of the guards said.
(Eng: About a few minutes ago. It looks like a centaur!)
“What did they say?” Shadow asked.
“They said that the monster looked like a centaur” Silver said.
“A centaur? I never heard it. What is that?” Shadow asked.
“It’s a mythological creature with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse” Nebula said.
"Oh. Let's go in there and see where it is" Shadow said.
"Ci occuperemo di questo. Abbiamo ottenuto superpotenze" Silver tells the guards.
(Eng: We'll deal with this. We got superpowers.)
"Davvero?" One guard asked.
(Eng: For real?)
Silver showed that his tattoos on his palms glowed and he opens the gates himself without hands.
"Ok, go e sconfiggerlo" the guards let them in to fight it.
(Eng: Ok, go and defeat him)
They got in pass the merchandise store in the colosseum and sees the wrecked arena inside, much of the building has been plundered in parts after an earthquake.
"Wow. The chaos emerald must be under where the arena had the animals. But we got to find this 'centaur' thing first" Tails said.
“Shadow, does this centaur thing look anything like a type of alien before?” Nebula asked.
“I’ve seen it once but it was only a baby in a different alien planet” Shadow said, “I don’t know how big the adult one looks like”
“Probably bigger than a normal horse” Nebula guessed.
“Guys, I think I found a passage but it’s too dark to see” Knuckles said.
“I can light flames from my hands but I’m not sure if there’s something flammable down there. It might be too dangerous” Blaze said.
“Good point, Blaze. Only Nebula and I can make light from our hands” Silver said.
“I guess it’s up to Nebula and Silver to go with you, Shadow” Tails said.
"All right. Keep an eye out if you see the centaur monster" Shadow said to him.
"Okay. We'll be in touch" Tails said.
Shadow, Silver and Nebula gets down in the arena under the ground and goes between the ways where the romans brought the animals up through. Luckily there were no scary skeletons in there. Then Shadow thought of something of the monster.
"I forgot one thing, it can camouflage so be careful" Shadow said.
“That’s gonna be hard. Here on Earth there are some animals that can camouflage themselves to hide” Silver said, using his ESP powers from his hands for light.
“Chameleons are very hard for us to see when they change colors as their camouflage” Nebula said, using her purple energy blast ball from her hands to light up.
“But how are we gonna know where this thing is?” Silver said.
“Easy, Silver. We don’t use our eyes, we use our ears. Remember back when we were kids we played Blind Man’s Bluff game” Nebula said.
“Oh, yeah. That kind a blind tag game. That’s a good idea” Silver said.
"Yup. So use your ears now Shadow" Nebula said to Shadow; he nods and they continue to search. They looked everywhere but they don’t see the alien monster.
“Great, a dead end but running water” Silver said.
“No, there’s a hoof track here. So the alien centaur must’ve swim down there. I’m guessing its going after the chaos emerald” Nebula said.
“We gotta get there fast before it reaches the emerald. We got to swim down there” Silver said.
“Then let’s go, guys” Shadow said, takes a deep breath and dives in the water. Silver and Nebula did the same and dives in the water.
They found a tunnel underwater and they didn't see the centaur monster yet. Pretty soon they’re gonna need to find the surface before they run out of air and drown. Shadow found the surface and tells the two to quickly swim up. As they reached the surface, they gasped for air.
“Well, we found the surface” Silver panted heavily.
“Yeah, before we ran out of air” Nebula coughed.
“Guys, I see something shiny over there” Shadow points at the green object standing on top of the column, “The green Chaos Emerald. Come on!” he gets out of the water. So did Nebula and Silver too.
All of a sudden, a cage dropped down on the Chaos Emerald to prevent the intruder from coming too close to it.
“Damn it!” Nebula said, “Just what I thought it was gonna happen”
“Oh boy. I don’t think he’s happy to see us, guys” Silver backs away from the centaur-like alien that was behind Shadow and Nebula.
It had four red eyes; the upper body looked almost human but it has a wide big mouth that can open up wide enough like a snake. The lower body was like a horse but its hooves are very strong to stomp the victim hard enough to the ground.
"GNAAAAAARGH!" the alien centaur creature roared and kicks Shadow and Nebula from behind, sending them to the wall. Silver then levitates some rocks and sends them toward the centaur creature, but he fires flames from the mouth and the rocks exploded.
"RAAAAGH!" the centaur creature roared and rushes toward Silver.
Then it swipes its tail to knock Silver down, then stomped on his hands hard!
"ARRGH!!!" Silver screamed in pain. Then the centaur turned to use fire from its rear end.
"Oh no! Not that!" Silver gasped. But just as it was gonna fire, Shadow moved Silver aside.
“Nebs! Help Silver!” Shadow screamed.
"Okay!" Nebula grabs Silver and placed him down at a pillar. His hands looked broken and he was wincing in pain.
"Distract it while I heal!" Nebula cried out to Shadow.
"Okay!" Shadow screamed. His streaks glowed and he punched the centaur hard in the mouth and knocks out some teeth.
Silver groans when his bones in his hands began to heal by Nebula's healing powers. As soon as the blood from his hands stopped bleeding, his hands are now back to normal.
“Thanks” Silver sighs in relief.
"No problem. Now let’s kick some Alien ass!" Nebula said, she flies up with Silver and they fire their blasts at the centaur alien. Then Shadow spin-dashed at the gut of the monster.
Then Nebula was behind the centaur and fires at the rear. This makes it turn and fires laser blasts at her with the eyes, but two blast accidently hits its tail root.
"YEAH! That's how you blast your own damn ass!" Nebula taunts it.
But now the centaur alien was angry for real and it grabs Nebula and slams her at the floor hard.
“Ugh! Oh, shit!” Nebula quickly grabbed the front hooves from almost stomping her, “Buck off!” she used her super strength to push the centaur off.
"Finish him!" Shadow yelled. Nebula nods and fires a powerful blast on the centaur. Then Nebula jumps on it and snaps its neck, a loud cracking noise was heard. Then Silver used his telekinesis to tilt over a pillar on the remains to make sure it stays dead.
“Blast your damn ass in Hell” Silver glared at the dead alien centaur.
"Yeah. Now let’s get to the emerald" Shadow said. He goes up to the caged Green chaos emerald and breaks the cage with his strength.
"Good, now let’s get back and tell everyone the beast is dead" Nebula said.
“But we have to go back to the way we came in. Another swim fun again” Silver said sarcastically.
“Yeah. We can’t blow up the ceiling. It’s very fragile and it can take down the Colosseum” Nebula said.
"Let’s take the same way we came" Shadow said, stuffing the chaos emerald into his quills. He then dives into the water with the others.
