After school, Nebula was driving to back home. As she got there, she parked her car, turning it off and got out as she locked all the doors of her car. She texted her aunt that she's gonna take a walk on the sidewalk.

She takes out her iPhone and played bubble shooter on it. She looked around to make sure everything is safe as she closes in to the apartment stores down the street. But in an alley, Sally and Scourge awaits her.

"Alright as soon as she passes by, I'll knock her down and you chain her with your speed" Sally whispered to Scourge.

"Got it" Scourge nodded.

Nebula was looking at some windows at the stores which were selling rock music she likes, but she decides to buy it another day when she has enough money.

"I hope me and Shadow might spend our time together alone on the weekend" Nebula said and walks past an ally. Suddenly a hand grabbed her and threw her at some trashcans. She was about to get up but her legs got chained by a green flash.

"URGH! What is this?!" Nebula yelled. Then she heard a familiar laughter.

"Hehehehe.... you sure look hot when you're chained" it was Scourge who stepped out from the shadows with Sally.

"What the fuck are you doing?!" Nebula's eyes glowed purple.

"Taking our revenge on our friend Fiona being suspended and you staying in my way for Sonic" Sally said and slaps her hard in the face.

"Ow! Sally, you do that again and you are in trouble!" Nebula warned, "Don't get me angry like last time!"

"Oh, please. You think your scary glowing purple eyes will scare me?" Sally mocked.

"Now I'm gonna do it on her" Scourge grinned and is about to take Nebula's shirt off but she punched him off him when he tried to.

"I still got my fists ready!" Nebula growled and grabs the chains on her legs.

Her anger was building up and the dark purple aura appeared around her, making her sky blue eyes turn to glowing purple, "Shit! NOW I'M VERY PISSED!!!!" she screamed in anger, her fingernails extends to sharp claws and her two normal canine teeth grows longer to almost like a vampire's teeth.

Sally was looking frightened when Nebula in her Dark form breaks free from her chains.

"Oh no, Scourge!" Sally said.

"Huh? OH MY GOD! Stay away from us!" Scourge gasped at seeing Dark Rage Nebula.

"Don't stand there, attack her!" Sally ordered Scourge to attack her.

"I WARNED YOU!!!!!" DR Nebula's voice was dark and deep, filled with anger in her form when her voice changes.

Scourge spin-dashed at DR Nebula but she whacks him away with her bare hands. Sally then takes out a stun-gun to see if it works on her.

But when she fires the stun-gun at DR Nebula and it electrifies her, it had no effect on her either.

"What the?!" Sally was surprised and drops the stun-gun, backs off to the wall with DR Nebula closing in angrily.

"You think my anger can't scare you? THINK AGAIN!!!" DR Nebula snarled angrily and is about to claw her.

All of a sudden, a strange teal-blue aura surrounded her and she was lifted up in the air by Silver's ESP powers. He wasn't alone; he had Shadow and Sonic along with him.

"What have you done to make her angry?!" Shadow growled at Sally and Scourge.

"He-he-he made her angrier!" Sally points at Scourge gritting his teeth in fear.

"She told me to!" Scourge said very scared.

"PUT ME DOWN NOW!!!!!" DR Nebula struggling to get free.

"Silver and Sonic, deal with these two. Silver, put her down. I got this" Shadow said.

They both nod and goes up to Sally and Scourge to have a 'word' with them. Silver released DR Nebula and drops her on the ground.

"Sally, now you have gone far enough for my friend Nebula! You better stay away from my friends!" Sonic yelled at Sally.

"It wasn't my fault! Blame on that Creepy girl for getting in my way!" Sally yelled.

"She is not a creepy girl OKAY! I don't love you anymore Sal! Leave!" Sonic shouted into her face. Without a word Sally left. Silver was using his ESP to keep Scourge from running away.

"Look at what you done Scourge! You nearly made her kill you and Sal!" Silver yelled at him.

"But it was Sally's idea to make her angry!" Scourge whines nervously.

"Oh yeah?! Like I believe you" Silver threw him at the garbage can.

DR Nebula was not able to calm down from all the anger she used filled her adrenaline up, she backs away nervously from Shadow. Not wanting to have him see her like this, "Please don't come near me! I'm a monster!" she whimpered.

"Nebula, look at me. Deep breaths and think of me. You're no monster" Shadow walks up to her with no fear. He tenderly placed his hand on her cheek to make her look at him.

DR Nebula tries her best to calm down, fighting off her anger which caused her dark purple aura surrounding her body to disappear. Her fangs and claws shrinks to normal and her glowing purple eyes returns to normal. She collapsed on Shadow due to exhaustion from her rage.

"Come on guys lets go" Shadow said. He picked up Nebula carrying her bridal style as he, Sonic and Silver follows him from the alley back to Shadow's house.

-

Once they arrived, Shadow puts Nebula on the couch. He sees her breathing okay but he has never seen the real dark form that she turns into when she get SUPER angry. He's seen Sonic's dark form but compared to Nebula's, it was different than Sonic's.

"Dude, not only have I seen her eyes glow purple but I've never seen her turn into.....her dark form" Sonic said.

"A Sith knows when to unleash the fury of the dark side, and when to hold back. Patience can be a weapon if you know how to use it, and your anger can fuel the dark side if you learn how to control it" Silver said, talking about the dark force from Star Wars, "But this is different, guys. I'm gonna have to talk with Nebula until she wakes up" he said.

"Why you?" Sonic asked.

"Because I have psychic powers" Silver said, rolling his eyes in annoyance that Sonic can be slow at forgetting things sometimes.

"Are you sure you know what you're doing, Silver?" Shadow asked with his arms crossed.

"I am" Silver said, sitting down on the sofa, waiting for Nebula to wake up.

Soon after 10 minutes she woke up with a sluggish moan.

"Ohhhh..... my head" Nebula groaned. She looked around to see she is in Shadow's house with him, Silver and Sonic.

"What happened guys?" she asked.

"Silver explain" Shadow said.

"You were turning into something similar to Sonic's dark form by anger, your nails and teeth extended to claws and fangs. How come you turn into that?" Silver said.

"It happens when I'm super angry" Nebula said, "You all saw how my eyes glow purple when I'm mad, that's my normal anger. But when I get extremely angry, it fills up my rage which turns me into Dark Rage Nebula. Or known as DR Nebula for short" Nebula said, "And that's why everyone calls me Creepy because of my eyes glowing purple" she said.

"Nebula, you are not creepy to us. We are your friends" Shadow said reassuringly.

"Thanks, Shadow. But it's not easy for me to stay calm because whenever I feel my rage building up I can't control my anger. And I don't want to hurt anyone" Nebula said.

"Oh, Nebula. Come here" Shadow hugged her softly and Nebula hugged back, having some tears in her eyes.

"What should I do, Shadow?" she asked.

"No idea Nebula. I'm always gonna be on your side" Shadow said.

"Perhaps I can help you control your anger, Nebula" Silver said.

"I appreciate your help Silver, that's a good thought" Nebula smiled.

"No problem. I'll let you think about it for tomorrow or some other day when you feel like it. Tomorrow is Saturday which means no school" Silver said.

"I'll think about it. Oh, man. My aunt is getting worried about me. I gotta get back home" Nebula said.

"Okay bye. See you tomorrow" Silver said as Nebula leaves. The SSS hedgehogs stayed in Shadow's house to have a talk about Nebula.

"What are we gonna do if Nebula turns Dark Rage again? Do I have to stop her with my dark form?" Sonic asked.

"Stupid question, Faker. You won't hurt her, either will Silver" Shadow glared.

"My mistake" Sonic said with folded ears.

"We help her with feelings, guys" Silver said between them.

"Are you saying that her powers are triggered by her emotions?" Sonic asked.

"Somewhat close. Maybe. Remember the other day she stopped Storm and Jet from bullying the half-cyborg lion and she arm wrestled with Storm, she said that her strength comes from her confidence. So perhaps we'll ask her how her powers work with her emotions" Silver said.

"Yeah, that's it. You should ask her how" Shadow said.

"We'll ask her tomorrow" Silver said.

At Nebula's house, Aunt Star was waiting for Nebula at the window fixing some flowers at the same time. Bella was whimpering while waiting for her.

"Bella, relax. She'll be back" Aunt Star said.

That was until the door opened and Nebula walks in, "Hey, Auntie. Sorry I got you worried. I bumped into Shadow and we played basketball at his house" she said with an excuse.

"Oh, nice. I can't believe that you and Shadow are getting along well" Aunt Star said with a chuckle.

"Yeah. Hey Bella, come here" Nebula said and knees down to let Bella come to her.

"Ruff ruff!" Bella barked and licked Nebula in the face.

"Ahahahaha.... Bella!" Nebula laughed and fell on the floor as Bella barked happily.
