About me...
I grew up playing, reading and watching Sonic. I know just about everything there is to know about the Blue Blur and his co-stars, rivals and villains. I've played just about every game, inside and out, and have quite an impressive collection of merchandising.

I also like to write fanfiction, though my favorite subjects are Mephiles the Dark, Shadow the Hedgehog, Rouge the Bat and my fancharacter persona with my dog, though the last two play somewhat minor parts in the stories.

I'm also noted as the writer of one of, if not the largest series of stories focal on Mephiles the Dark, in which not only relies on the little game evidence given on his personality and back story, but also creates a possible story for him that explains why he is as he is, and what might have really happened.

My Fanfic Series
The series is entitled "Teaching Darkness", which was really the name of the first story. It currently consists of four main series stories and seven side story oneshots.

It can be found on several sites, most notably FanFiction.net and DeviantArt.

Though it starts out a a plot twist to the final battle between Mephiles and Shadow in Sonic the Hedgehog, the series has morphed into a story of how Mephiles tries to start over and at some points even fight against a demonic side of him that has been using him as a puppet for the past ten years.

The first story is simply that Mephiles, refusing to lose, fuses to Shadow in a last ditch effort. This resulted in the two taking residence in the same head for about a few days before it was solved. This story also set up the premise for a few running jokes, ongoing themes and several moments to keep referencing.

As the stories continue after the first one, Mephiles takes up residence with Shadow and Rouge, much to Shadow's dislike in the beginning. Shadow continues to be hostile to Mephiles for a great deal, but over time starts to loosen up, until finally becoming his friend at least ten months after the first story (though Mephiles refers to him as one well before that.). However, before that time, Shadow has shown some tolerance to Mephiles in several cases.

Through the series, Mephiles begins to regard Shadow as a friend, though it took up until the current story for Shadow to finally accept that, and realize that Mephiles' actions that were portrayed in both the game and the first story, were not his own.

Also a part of Mephiles' character development, he also regards Rouge as somewhat of an older sister, after all the help she gave him near the end of the first story.

My two fancharacters (my dog and me...) are also a part of the series, though the official debut is not until several stories in. Rae and Jak almost play as a mirror role as the one between Shadow and Mephiles portrayed in the stories. Rae also provides a bit of comic relief when the stories get too angsty, a part of her personality that begins to rub off onto Mephiles.

Mephiles' Character rewrite
Many things were added to Mephiles for the stories, as well as his appearance was altered (with explanation of the use of a Chaos Emerald, more specifically, used by Rouge).
