The Technical Revolution

Written by Procurator Fox

Sonics alarm clock went off… and was blown to bits in seconds. Sonic reminded himself to thank Tails for building his J.A.M. (Jamming Alarm Mechanism (A small machine that is anti-technology (we won't go there (Okay, It stops machines from working. All I'm going to say.))))

Knuckles' alarm clock was blown to bits before the Alarm even went off…

Tails' alarm clock was spared. Tails was already awake and eating breakfast when it went off. He casually pressed a button, and the alarm stopped. When Tails was finished with his glazed flakes, ("They're Grrrrrrreat!" said Sonic on the cover. "Earn your spines.") There came a great shout from upstairs.

"TAILS!!!!!!!!! TURN IT OFF!!!!!!!!!!!"

Tails pricked his fox ears, and he could faintly hear an alarm clock buzzing. He smiled. Ever since Procurator Fox had read some story on , this had happened a lot. Sonic would probably have utterly demolished his clock, but it would still be ringing. Tails yelled back "Press the button on the back of the clock!"

Sonic grabbed his clock furiously and turned it around. On the back, there were hundreds of buttons, not just one.

"OH, S***!!!!"

Sonic decided to press one of the buttons at random, hoping he picked the right one. Since red buttons meant "stop", maybe it was that big one in the middle…

Tails suddenly heard a deafening explosion come from Sonics room upstairs. Tails rushed up the stairs, preparing himself to fight Eggman or some other threat that would have broken into the house. When he reached Sonics room, he saw sonic with a blackened face, holding a pile of ashes.

…that was emitting a constant ringing noise.

Tails sighed. Sonic had pressed the combustibility trigger, allowing the unstable mass of the inner mechanism to mix with the outer mass, creating a small bit of flammable radiation, which combusts with mass like that surrounding the clock. (The clock had exploded.)

Tails stepped over to Sonic, and pressed a switch on the wall, and a transparent tube dropped from the ceiling, and sucked up the mess, transporting it to one of the repair wards in the lab below.

Sonic was confused on many things. One, where had Tails gotten that button for the tube from? Two, why did a simple alarm clock need that many buttons? Three, when did Tails build that tube? Four, where did it go? All of these and more was going through Sonic's head.

"Uh… What was that Tails."

"That's the repair ward chute with which I can transport broken down machines to one of the places where they can be repaired."

"One of the places?"

"Yes, one of the 23 repair wards."

"YOU HAVE 23 REPAIR WARDS!?!?!"

"…yes, among the other rooms."

"And it's all in this house?!?!?"

"Of course. I have built a large underground system that has been my lab for all of the time you've known me."

"Just how big is this 'Underground system'"

"It has exactly 437 rooms, each connected to the rest with a high-speed transportation mechanism. I also keep having a demand for more stuff, so the rooms are constantly growing in number. They multiply at a rate of approximately 12.5978% per day."

"…What do you do down there?"

"What the heck, I'll just show you."

Tails then led Sonic downstairs to his lab. He gestured for sonic to step into a small elevator-like room. Sonic obliged, and Tails pressed one of the 437 buttons. The doors closed, and then immediately reopened to a different scene, a lab room with robots and buttons everywhere.

"Whoa! How does that elevator transport thingie work that fast?!?!"

"Have you ever heard of warp speed, Sonic?"

"…"
