I intended for this one to be a Wattpad-exclusive story, but I figured, "Why not just throw it on here to see what kind of reception it gets". Anyhow, enjoy!

Neo Eggmanland, Central Tower

In the comfort of his newest fortress, the mad scientist, Dr. Ivo Robotnik (better known to others as Dr. Eggman) was plotting his latest evil scheme while eating a really evil looking sandwich.

"Destroy my Egg Cannon, will you?" He took a bite of his lunch before continuing. "When I get through with you, Sonic, I'll make sure you're known as the Fastest Thing Dead!" He laughed heartily, stopping only to choke on his sandwich. Perhaps it wasn't a good idea to evil laugh while eating…

Staring at the mess on the floor, the good doctor knew he couldn't be bothered to pick up after himself. "Orbot! Cubot!"

A red spherical headed and yellow cuboid robot sped to their master's beck and call. The relatively smarter of the two, Orbot went first.

"Uh, if this is about the incident with your whites again, Cubot apologizes."

"Yeah, the lighter fluid dribbled on them by accident!"

The egg -shaped scientist was beyond words. "W-what? I can't believe-" he looked at the cube shaped robot again. He sighed heavily. "On second thought, maybe I can believe. This is the third time… THIS MONTH! Seriously, I'm starting to wonder why I haven't sold you two idiots for scrap by now. I'm sure the fox boy would take you…"

"Oh, joy! Maybe now, I can get that much needed tune-up." Orbot mused hopefully.

"And maybe I can get some help with those voices in my head," added the cubed robot.

"Oh, shut up, you bucket of bolts!" Eggman snapped, his patience wearing thin even quicker than usual. "NO ONE'S GETTING SOLD ANYWHERE!"

The room fell silent in the face of the fat man's outburst.

"Now, what the status on my other robots? I'll need them in order for my grandest scheme yet to commence!"

Orbot and Cubot looked at each other awkwardly. "You see, uh, boss…"

"What, Orbot?" Eggman asked, gritting his teeth. He had a feeling he wasn't going to like what he was about to hear.

The red robot stammered a bit before his companion came out with it. "They're gone!"

"WHAT?!" The scientist exclaimed, nearly hitting the roof quite literally. The two robots in front of him stifled back a laugh as he got off the floor.

"They just vanished, sir," Orbot continued. "Right in front of our eyes."

"Really? And who, pray tell, could've done that?"

The answer to that question suddenly worked in right in front of the doctor's face. Cold, mechanical eyes highlighted the vaguely rodent like features of his greatest creation. Metal Sonic.

"W-What are YOU doing here, Metal?" He backed away in his seat, trying to move away from the menacing presence. "You aren't supposed to be active right now. Did you have something to do with this?!"

Much to the Doctor's surprise, an eerily familiar voice not unlike that of his main adversary, Sonic, came from seemingly nowhere. "Yes, Eggman, I did. In your worthless regime is of no use to me. Stand aside, so I can show you what real evil is." The android got into a crouching position, poised to attack. "Or better yet, I'll make you!"

The rotund scientist's screams echoed of the monumental walls of his fortress.
