Forms of Fighting

Chapter 1: The Blast
There was a city called Westopolis. It was a big city similar to New York, but a little smaller. At sight, this city wouldn't seem that abnormal. But there had been some interesting events in this town. All of them were related to a certain speed demon, a blue, anthropomorphic hedgehog named Sonic. And all of these events also included an evil scientist called Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik. These two always would be clashing in different cities, areas, even different worlds or dimensions. But Station Square was a classic. One of these battles was taking place right now.
Sonic was busy fighting Eggman's new EggTank. This robot was, or course, very similar to a tank, but had signs of Eggman on it. For example, round mines would shoot out of the wheels, fly through the air, and hit the ground at random spots. Of course, it being Eggman, there were weak spots that Sonic could easily hit.
"Wow, Egghead, could you make the weak spots more obvious?" Sonic mocked. Eggman's face turned red with rage. Mines shot out, failing near Sonic. Side-stepping them, Sonic aimed at the legs, bashing one to pieces. The robot fell to one side, and Eggman tumbled around in the cockpit. As Sonic went for the finishing blow, Eggman slammed on a red button, causing the robot to fly away. Sonic watched him leave with a smirk on his face.
"Cowardly much?" Sonic said cockily. He bowed to the people clapping at him, and zoomed home to meet up with Tails.
"Hey buddy!" Sonic shouted. Tails immediately came out of his lab, skidding in front of Sonic.
"Well? Did you win again?" The young fox asked eagerly. Sonic just smiled, and exchanged a high five with his younger brother. Both of them rushed off to do what they always did after a battle. Tails made Sonic some chili dogs, and Sonic would check out Tails new inventions.
"Hey Tails, what is this?" Sonic shouted from the young fox's lab. Tails finished making the chili dogs, and ran to lab. He came in to see Sonic looking at, what resemble a hospital bed. However, it had two computer screens, a keyboard, a remote control that makes it move, and just some little differences here and there.
"Something I'm making for hospitals around the world. The hospital in Westopolis will be the first to test it out." Sonic wasn't completely listening. He was too busy checking out every inch of the machine, milking in how crazy it was.
"Dang Tails, this is so cool. What does it do?" Sonic taking huge interest in his invention made Tails glowed with happiness.
"Well, it's for anyone who's in a coma or passed out. It will measure brain waves, what's going on inside a person's head, and if the person can see or hear anything. The remote makes it easier for the doctors and nurses to move patients around, and finally, it comes with a little portable cabinet that can store every medicine or tools the doctors would need." Sonic looked at Tails, confused.
"Uhh, buddy. I don't see any cabinet." Sonic said, scratching his head. In response, Tails clicked a button at the end of the bed. A huge, wooden cabinet popped out the side of the invention, nearly hitting Sonic. Inside where hundreds of medicines, dozens of tools, and so much more. Tails clicked the button again, and the cabinet sucked right back inside.
"Wow Tails, this is one of your best inventions yet, other than the Torpedo." Sonic said, ruffling Tails' hair. The young fox laughed and ran back inside with Sonic. The speed demon wolfed down the chilidogs Tails made, then got up to go for an afternoon run.
"Be right back buddy. I'll be five minutes." Sonic said, and zoomed out the door as Tails clicked on a stopwatch.
Sonic zoomed through the forest, right to downtown Westopolis. There he ran a few laps all the way around the city, leaving a blast of wind and made people staggered and had trash fly everywhere. As Sonic ran back through the forest, a weird-buzzing sound made him skid to the stop.
The Egg-Tank slammed down right in front of Sonic. The hedgehog didn't think, he just jumped into action. The robot launched missiles out of the arms, which Sonic homing attacked to get to the top. We went to pound on the pod at the top, but when he did, he found he couldn't break the glass. Landing, Sonic stared in shock as Eggman laughed.
"Oh Sonic, my dear Sonic..." Eggman started to say, but Sonic cut him off.
"Don't call me your dear, Baldy McNosehair. I'm too cool to be your dear." Sonic said, smirking. Eggman's face started to turn red again, but he shook it off, continuing to attack his enemy. Once again, mines shot out of the wheels. Sonic had to jump about twenty feet away to avoid the explosions.
The battle went on for half an hour, Sonic attacking the robot, trying to find a weak spot that didn't seem to be there, and Eggman doing everything he could to destroy the hedgehog. When the missiles launched again, Sonic finally had an idea.
Running not to fast so the missiles would follow him, Sonic bolted away. The missiles followed, avoiding everything and seemed determined to hit their mark. Sonic suddenly pulled a very sharp U-turn, running back the way he came. The missiles followed the hedgehog, and as Eggman's robot came back into view, Sonic turned on the jets.
It happened in five seconds flat. Sonic zoomed through the robot's legs, and the missiles slammed into the robot's body. Just before the impact, Eggman was able to eject out of the robot and flew away. Sonic skidded to a stop, laughing as he watched Eggman's pod jerked around; one of the engines had been damaged. As Sonic turned around, one of mines from the wheels launched out. In a graceful arc, the mine flew through the air, and landed right in front of Sonic.
With an explosion that rocked the earth, Sonic was thrown backwards into the robot. A second later, another explosion came from the robot, launching Sonic high into the air. The speed demon flew over the forest, and came crashing down into a clearing. He bounced five times before coming to a halt, his face looking up into the sky, his eyes closed.
Back at his house, Tails watched as the stopwatch, reading at thirty-five minutes, stopped working.
