Nexas: *he softly begins to laugh, a laugh that slowly morphs into crazed madness...*
... *straitens up* My name... is Nexas. Nexas the Nightmare.
*he shakes his head with a growl, looking up at the moon as it is crossing the sky* I have other, more important, matters to attend to... *he turns to leave, looking back with a face of pure evil, with a devilish sneer*
... If you DARE disturb me again... You will regret it.
Farewell!... Shadow the Hedgehog...
*he suddenly vanishes into whisping shadows without a trace... finally breaking the link to Shadow's mind*
Shadow: *gasping for breath*... My... head...
...*suddenly looks angry, slamming a fist to his knee* How could he gain control of my mind so easily?!
He's Strong! *like he can't believe it* If only I didn't let my guard down!... nngh... *his head throbs in an ache*...
So...
He has the power to take over minds...
...He said I've met the angel, does that mean the girl from earlier? She could also form a mind link... (vvv)

interesting .w.

Shadow: Only, it felt like she was gently touching my thoughts. *thinks about it, somewhat softened*
I could only feel her presense... she didn't try to hurt me at all, or even push her way in...
Unlike Nexas. *glares again*
He vio.lent.ly invaded my head, gripping me... I couldn't break free. Breaking the link was like facing a tidal wave, his energy was too much for even me to handle.
I felt other energies around him... separate from him...
But there was no one there with him!...
They were very similar to the angel's energy. and... Its so strange that they're all nearly identical to the energy of a chaos emerald...
Whats he after?
Why is he here...
Why is the angel here...
...There must be a conn.ect.ion between them...
...I'll inform Sonic of him later. For now, I'll investigate further.
