#and they’re hurting her blue rat bestie (kid)

TW: Abuse, mentions of experimentation on children and torture like experiences.

Something I think about my au a lot is Shadow reacting to Aleena’s abuse.

Aleena’s excuse for treating Sonic the way she does is because it is for the ‘greater good’, and you know in a way, the reason Shadow was created was for a ‘greater good’ as well; Shadow got experimented on just to see how much he could resist and to create a cure for Maria.When he starts seeing the things Sonic goes through in his mother’s ‘training’, he is just paralyzed because is too familiar.

I don’t talk much about Aleena’s ‘training’ for Sonic but it usually goes on the same bases as experimentation on Shadow’s body, except Aleena does it with chaos energy and magic.

Aleena is a sorcerer, her main source of power is her flute but with time, it becomes a corrupted magic given her emotion and intentions (She doesn’t want to acknowledge is dark magic but it is). She uses it on Sonic to understand how much chaos energy he holds, where does it come from and most importantly what weakens it and how to erase that ‘weakness’. The main effects for this is that Sonic feels cold all the time, he has current high fevers, he gets tired more easily (which isn’t much but still)muscle pain and loses appetite.

Shadow is the first one (followed by Knuckles) to notice these changes because he can sense it in Sonic’s energy.

He knows what’s happening.

The Vampire Diaries 815 Recap “We’re Planning a June Wedding” #TVD

Episode grade: 10.

We’re down to the final weeks of this wonderful series, and I am going to miss spending time with these characters! Thank goodness for the modern age, with Blu-ray box sets and Netflix-CW deals, allowing us to watch the best shows over and over again for all time. Remember when we had to make our own tapes of shows, with the VCR, and they’d either preserve the commercials, or you’d have to carefully hit pause on the recording and restart it at just the right time? Just me? All right, never mind.

In the final season’s blast from the past parade, we start by welcoming Matt’s crappy mom back to Mystic Falls. Remember Kelly Donovan? Drunk and embarrassing, neither providing a good example for her kids nor watching over them? Yeah, she hasn’t been exactly missed. Including by Matt, who reacts to his long lost mom in about the same way you might react to running into your high school bully at a chain restaurant. She’s apparently here with Peter, because contemplating hell makes one want to reach out to the wives they abandoned and make some amends, I guess.

Our heroes are hatching a plan to deal with the imminent return of Katherine, and it’s Damon who suggests that Katherine would be helpless to resist ruining Stefan’s wedding. I think there’s a little more to this, of course, that Damon is determined to see Stefan get a happy ending, and he knows that in their lives, the longer you wait to start your happy ending, the less likely you are to get there at all. So he chooses a Katherine plan that conveniently also lets him celebrate his little brother’s humanity and happiness. Notably, though, Caroline is not quite as sure about this plan. She says it’s because she wanted a big, beautiful wedding with time to plan (and no super-villain waiting in the wings), but it’s hard not to read a little uncertainty into her reluctance.

Stefan overhears Bonnie and Caroline in a moment of girl talk, and while the text is clearly about why Bonnie won’t be there as maid-of-honor (no offense, bestie, but you’re marrying the man who murdered my true love a couple of weeks ago), the subtext is unmistakably that Caroline isn’t really sure about this pairing. I think there’s a chance she’d back out if she actually believed the wedding was going to occur; she’s kind of rolling with this, because she’s pretty sure the ceremony won’t be completed. From the look on Stefan’s face, I think he’s reading her the same way I am. 

Also instrumental to the Katherine plan? An actual instrument with which to bring about her bitter end. Taking their inspiration from the Cade blade, they note that luck is on their side for once–Katherine’s body was burned here in Mystic Falls, so her bones are still around to turn into weapons. Peter Maxwell finally gets to be useful, because he’s a legacy metalworker, so he’s given the crucial task of forging the weapon. Don’t screw this up, bad dad.

Bad dad’s task leaves Matt alone with his crappy mom, giving us a chance to see her cough up some black goo and kill the hell out of a random chick, because Kelly Donovan is actually back…from hell!

Back at the mansion, Caroline finds a gift that is 100% obviously from Katherine, but she won’t realize that, because plot and stuff. I mean, seriously, it’s a printed card, not written, so there’s no handwriting to recognize, it’s addressed simply “To the Bride,” which is ominous AF, and inside the card, the typed message of “Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue,” has the first phrase circled. Get a clue, Caroline. But hey, she’s got stuff on her mind. 

Here comes Damon, a very drunk Stefan in tow…no vampire metabolism anymore means rediscovering the experience of drinking yourself into a stupor and waking up hungover. Um…yay humanity? While Stefan is passed out, Damon and Caroline share a lovely moment. He puts her through a series of no doubt hilarious practice toasts for the reception, but we only see the last of them; he gets real and toasts to his dear friend Liz Forbes, who raised this strong, wonderful woman he is now honored to call his family. This is the truest smile from Caroline yet–even if she’s not 100% sure about Stefan, she can’t deny that being Damon’s sister-in-law is a-okay.

Damon puts Elena’s necklace on Caroline’s wrist, adding the “something borrowed,” and ensuring her friend is part of her day in some way. Damon, I’ll miss you most of all.

Caroline is getting ready for the wedding, and she opens a gift from Bonnie–here’s the something new! It’s a gorgeous tiara, because Bonnie’s a good friend who knows this isn’t the wedding Caroline has dreamed of…but that doesn’t mean she can’t still be a princess.

As another surprise gift to Caroline, Lizzie and Josie come running in, all dressed up for the big day! Alaric explains that Katherine would smell a rat if Caroline’s own daughters weren’t at the wedding, so Valerie did a protection spell to keep them safe that day. 

He, on the other hand, will not be there…Alaric was, after all, engaged to Caroline a few years ago himself. And just last week, before Stefan again showed up to screw him over, Alaric had been reaching out to Caroline about building a future together, centered around their kids…while it wasn’t overtly romantic, you could see the light in his eyes when he looked at her. I should note that I’m not often a fan of a storyline about a wistful love triangle and marrying the wrong person, but this really works for me. Alaric is such the better man! And while it made some sense that she had unfinished business with Stefan because of his having to go on the run, and it made some sense for vampires to be together…those aren’t factors anymore. She could have been free of her obligation to Stefan, but he came back and begged her to marry him anyway, and Caroline’s defining characteristic has always been steadfastness. She is being fairly railroaded into this wedding ceremony, and Alaric’s heartache is reasonable, not to mention beautifully acted.

Guests are arriving, starting with Matt’s lousy parents. Kelly Donovan greets her ex, Peter Maxwell, then instantly pries for details on the weapon he’s been forging to kill Katherine. When he acknowledges he’s already delivered it to Stefan, he is rendered useless to this hellcat, and she slashes his throat.

Bonnie again proves what an amazing person she is, showing up to the wedding to support Caroline. Enzo’s been the angel on her shoulder, begging her to put aside her anger toward a version of Stefan that no longer even exists. Aside: Enzo and Damon are both really good at compartmentalizing Ripper vs. Stefan, and that’s really because they are not like Stefan. Being a Ripper puts Stefan in a completely different category of vampire. Enzo and Damon can flip their switches and be legitimately different people than they were a moment before. Stefan is a Ripper, so his evil is a more ingrained part of his personality, not just a position on his humanity lever. But bless them, they don’t have his weakness, so they give him the benefit of the doubt.

Because Matt Davis is a truly spectacular actor, one of the best scenes in the episode is Alaric’s monologue to Dorian, remembering the long and winding road that brought him into these people’s overly complicated lives. I’m so grateful TVD made time for this quiet moment with one of my all-time favorite characters.

The wedding is getting started, and Caroline looks gorgeous walking down the aisle, of course! But when she takes her place beside Stefan, he recognizes the cameo necklace she’s wearing, and just as the audience knew, it was totally sent to her by Katherine. She freaks out, but Stefan says to leave it on, because Katherine will hate seeing it on her.

Sitting out in the crowd, Matt whispers to his lousy mom about how his dad should be there by now. Hilariously, she makes a well, isn’t that just like your dad? face, which is recognizable to any child of divorce.

Damon, acting as the officiant, loudly invites anyone to voice their objections to this union. When Katherine fails to show, Caroline’s moment of panic is evident–she really didn’t expect to have to go through with this wedding. But it’s too late now! 

Because they expected this to be interrupted by now, and perhaps because neither of them really believed the wedding was a great idea, the bride and groom have failed to prepare vows. Oops. Credit to Stefan for coming up with something charming enough to win Caroline over in the moment. By the time he kisses the bride, it seems like they’re both in the spirit of the event again, despite all the craziness.

There’s a little timeline weirdness here, in that Kelly Donovan runs out before the daytime wedding is over, yet it’s full dark out and well into the reception before Matt is seriously looking for her. Fortunately for Peter, she didn’t strike too deeply with her scary knife; Matt finds him alive and learns the truth about mom.

No one else knows yet, so we’re treated to a drunken toast from Kelly Donovan in the reception tent. She rants about how this crappy town never gave her a chance, and she reminds Damon of that time they made out (ha!). Then she brings up what he did to Vicki, who “never hurt anyone” (this is important). Finally, she gets in Matt’s face about how he cared for her so little that he didn’t even know she was dead. And the penny drops.

Confronted with the question of what Katherine is up to, Kelly honestly says she has no idea; she was too busy starting a gas leak in the house. Caroline knows that Bonnie just took Lizzie and Josie in to use the bathroom, so they’re all in a house about to explode…which it does.

Inside the blazing mansion, Bonnie and the girls are standing in a bubble of safety. The girls are magic siphons, after all, and holding Bonnie’s hands gives them access to her latent magic. Enzo appears to her to say his goodbyes; letting her magic get siphoned will save her life and the girls’, but it will also sever her connection to his pocket dimension. She doesn’t want to give him up, but the alternative is death, and he talks her into living. It’s heartbreaking. Enzo, you were the best vampire.

With the girls and Bonnie safe from the fire, it’s time to get back to squeezing Kelly Donovan for information. She took a deal from Katherine in exchange for a true death, returning to oblivion rather than more torture in hell. She reveals what else she knows of the master plan: Katherine is using the Maxwell hell bell! 

But wait, it can only be rung by someone in the Maxwell family line…and Kelly reveals that Vicki has also come back from hell for this assignment. And here’s where I again question the bizarrely selective quality of hell. Vicki died as a vampire, and she died long before the Other Side was destroyed. It makes sense that Katherine was so bad she was sucked into hell, but Vicki really wasn’t a bad person! Her mom just made a point of that in her drunken toast. I mean, I’ll take it–nice to see you again, Vicki–but I’m not sure it makes total sense. (Granted, I do recall Jeremy’s visits from ghost-Vicki who begged for help because she was in pain, and that fits with hell…but I’d still like an explanation of how she wound up there.)

Ah, TVD, I’m going to miss you. One more week of this gloriously well-written and well-acted series. Thanks to The CW for giving us The Vampire Diaries, and for letting it end with a plan, honoring the show as it deserves.

Who will you miss most of all? Comment with your favorite character!

The Ultimaverse Presents: Monsters #1

Foster City. The Dock Marketplace. 4:45 AM.

A shrouded man walks through the bustling crowds. He’s surrounded by smugglers, thieves, and killers. If he had any other choice, he would not be here, but his summoning was crucial. His name is Garth, and to keep attention away from himself, he is covered by a thick cloak that blocks any prying eyes from seeing his face, and even worse, the creature that constantly grasps for control. Garth starts to mumble to himself.

“You better stay under wraps, Grim. If you were to be let loose-“

A voice, which sounds like it scarfs cigars on the daily like they were tic-tac’s, yet is still deep and demonic, cuts him off, “then about 500 of America’s most wanted would be wiped off the face of the Earth. Not seeing the downside, Gar.”

“The fact that you seem to have no problem with a massacre still disturbs me…” his voice transforms into a whisper, “… even though at this point I should be used to it.”

The vagrant walks to a nearby stand, which houses a tall, powerful looking red headed woman, though her hair is mostly buzzed, and the hair that is left is spiked up into a faux-hawk. She stands and looks down Garth. Two words cross her shocked lips, “you’re alive..!”

“You sound surprised. I don’t die easily.”

Before she says anything else, the woman hugs her best friend in the entire universe. Her name is Roxane, and she is known as the Seraphim, mainly because she’s as graceful (and as hard to kill) as an angel. Slowly, she pulls away, but she picks up Garth single handedly like he was a paper bag and puts him inside the stand.

He asks her, “Why did we have to meet here? In the anus of Foster City’s criminal underground?”

“I can’t exactly just meet you at a coffee shop. Not with your track record. Even if being around the scum of this city infuriates me to no end…” she shakes off the homicidal thoughts that enter her brain, “at least they have respect for their common criminals. It’s unlikely someone here will rat you out.”

“It’s getting worse, Roxy. Grim is pulling at my mind more and more, and I’m afraid of what will happen if I let my defenses down for even a second…”

The warrior looks at her partner and holds him. He looks up at her, his eyes widened with terror.

“I’m afraid. More afraid then when… I…”

Twenty Years earlier. Las Vegas, Nevada. A quiet neighborhood. 11:00 AM.

A young seven year old blonde haired girl in a pink dress with flower insignias all over it skips down the peaceful and lovely streets of her neighborhood towards a nearby apartment complex. After going inside, she walks down the parking lot towards her friend, Gar, and his home. She politely rings the doorbell and squeezes a box in her arms. A present for her bestie.

As she waits, she suddenly hears noises from inside the apartment. Horrible noises. Loud crashes, screaming, and walls being slashes by blades. Frightened, a young Roxane backs away from the door. At that moment, someone is thrown into the door, and it falls over. She looks at her blood soaked dandelion colored shoes, which are nearby the head of a very dead man. The father of Garth, who’s neck has been snapped so his head is completely backwards.

The girl looks up, seeing a giant monster approach her. It’s easily three times larger than her, with a spine that juts out of his back. Each of his hands have claws that are like short swords, while his teeth are huge fangs that could bite through steel and live to tell about it. But worst of all are the eyes. Roxane’s mother is a gypsy, and she would always tell her, “The eyes reflect who you truly are.”

At this moment, she’s staring into the eyes of the beast before her, and all she sees is pure, unbridled, unadulterated, and full on death, carnage, misery, and most of all; anger. The creature raises his titanic hand to kill her, but Roxane holds up the box she brought for Garth. Surprised by this, the thing takes the box and tears open the top, revealing a cute and cuddly teddy bear inside. It has baby blue fur, heart shaped eyes, and a pink clover on its tummy.

The clover. Garth’s favorite plant.

At a pace that can only be described as agonizingly slowly, the beast reverts into what it once was. On the floor is Garth, kneeling in a puddle of his parents’ blood. The kid is only six years old, and he looks up at Roxane, mouthing to her, “Help me…”

The Present.

Roxane cradles the broken and frightened man. She shushes him and rubs his head, “it’s going to be okay. Grim will never take control. Not while I’m still sucking down oxygen.”

He starts to sniffle, but he holds back tears. He’s spent too long crying. It’s beginning to hurt his eyes.

“I’ve been getting better at controlling him… I even saved a bunch of people-“

One Week Earlier.

A woman wakes up from her slumber. How she got into it, she can’t remember, but she suddenly realizes where she is. She finds herself pushed up against a desk that threatens to lose its grip on the slanting floor. The building’s windows have been torn open by a man calling himself “Chancellor”. He’s a meta-human who’s super into theatrics, constantly wearing a huge Dracula cape and purple robes with a stylized domino mask, but what’s important is his power; illusions.

By making a nearby crane operator see thousands of bees attack him at once, he has sent that crane into the building, putting a giant hole into it.

Chancellor floats to the floor that has been broken into and begins passing by the people. Most of them are unconscious because of his secondary power to make people fall asleep, but for some reason Ruby Rend has not been effected by the man.

The Russian business woman hides behind her desk and slowly moves up the desks, avoiding the gaze of Chancellor, whose busy lifting wallets. She gets closer and closer, eventually being so close that she’s within pissing distance of the man. At that moment, she tackles him.

Unprepared, he falls, and the two lose their grip on the floor and slide down to the hole in the window. Chancellor yells, “are you INSANE?! I can’t fly, and I doubt you can either!”

He tries to punch her, but his form is so sloppy that Ruby easily ducks her head and uppercuts him in the chin. Before they reach the open window, Chancellor’s cape is caught on a desk and they’re suddenly stopped, Ruby holding onto the villain’s leg as she dangles over the edge.

She screams in pain as her arm is pulled, but due to how much time she spends on her upper body, she quickly gets over it. The woman looks at Chancellor, “pull me up.”

“What? I-I don’t even have the strength! ‘Sides, why should I?!”

He tries to sound threatening, but it’s so toothless that she just smirks.

“You don’t have the guts to not save me. You’re a con-artist and a kleptomaniac, not a killer like Stryker or some other assassin.”

Chancellor looks away, but begrudgingly agrees and holds out his arm to help her up. She reaches up to take it, but her moment of relief is fleeting, as his cape rips and the two fall out of the building.
