Charmy Rogues: The Reunion Show
Chapter One: This Was Supposed to Here On Five Months Ago, but the Author is Lazy!
Location: Casinopolis
Gemini Rose the Hedgehog and Damien Angels the Dog/Canine/Mutt/Golden Retriever/Thing were both sitting down in the middle of a desolate stage. The latter appeared rather excited, dressed in his regular attire of a black jacket and shorts. However, his partner who looked extremely formal in his tuxedo had the expression of "Damien, I'm gonna kill you in less than five seconds".
"What's gotten your panties in a bunch?" Damien asked, flicking through his question cards.
"Shut up! Why the hell are you dressed up so casually?" Gemini shrieked, snatching his collar.
"Well, if you read the fine print…" The golden hound pulled out a small note from his pocket. It was the note that Gemini foolishly yanked off from the spike in the author's backyard. "It says here to dress however we want too, but one of the hosts has to dress up in a tuxedo. Hey, you're the one that didn't read the letter fully."
Just before Gemini was about to strangle him, lights suddenly flooded the stage. Almost permanently blinded, the two hosts face the audience with giant, shiny grins. Gemini has his hand around Damien's neck, squeezing harshly to prevent him from saying anything stupid. The cast from the Charmy Rogue's Trilogy are sitting in the stands, clapping along with the audience.
"Hello, and welcome to Charmy Rogues: The Reunion Show," Gemini greeted, removing his hand from Damien's neck. "I'm Gemini and this is Damien, your hosts for this final expedition of the Charmy Rogues Trilogy."
"In this special, we'll be interviewing the cast and asking pretty tough questions, showing scenes that didn't make the cut, and probably have a few fights up here," Damien added.
"Our first guests are the original good guys, fighting Eggman and one of them usually gets tricked by him every two or three hours-"
"HEY!" Knuckles roared, leaping out from his seat. "You take that back Gemini or-!"
"Team Sonic!" Gemini and Damien shouted simultaneously in order to calm the enraged guardian down.
A monitor appeared between the two hosts, exposing some of Team Sonic's "finer" moments: Facing the Babylon Rogues and Team Dynamite from Charmy Rogues, reverting Jet back to normal from Charmy Rogues, defeating ABIS and Rodrigo in Charmy Rogues, Sonic dying in Babylon Bee, Knuckles fighting Sarge in Babylon Bee and falling flat on his face after tripping over several steps on Angel Island, Sonic appearing in his ghostly form to help Charmy out in Babylon Bee, Sonic punching Jet in the face in Rogue's Bee…that repeated…and repeated…and repeated.
"Get rid of that!" Jet commanded indignantly.
…Tails in a cage in Rogue's Bee with Cream, Sonic and Knuckles fighting Rodrigo, Cesare, Tagio, Aliza, and Lucrezia in Rogue's Bee, and another repeat of Sonic punching Jet in Rogue's Bee.
Awesome.
Sonic, Tails and an aggravated Knuckles hopped down the steps from where they were sitting in the top row towards the hosts, dragging the echidna along. Jet and Storm glare at the hedgehog and echidna's backside while Wave "accidentally" tries to trip Tails. Why? Because she's a bitch like that. However, the fox zips over her foot with his twin tails before plopping in the middle of Sonic and Knuckles. They slump onto a couch, but Knuckles sits away from them in a chair.
"So, what have you guys been up to?" Gemini questioned as Knuckles crossed his arms, narrowing his eyes at him.
"Guarding the Master Emerald, it's my duty," Knuckles stated, eyes closed. "I do sometimes help out against Eggman or any other threat that harms the Master Emerald."
"…That's boring," Damien commented, rolling his eyes. "What about you two, Sonic, Tails?"
"Just saving the world from any threat that comes about," Sonic jeered, rapping his knuckles against his chest. "Eggman, Dark Gaia, Nocturnus Tribe, the usual."
"It's rumored that you still don't have your speed. Is that true?" Gemini asked, flipping through his cards.
"That was a bad question," Tails muttered.
Sonic froze, his body stiff as a board. His cocky complexion instantly faded to obscurity, replaced by absolute fear. Trembling, he snatched his head and dragged his knees towards his stomach. Rocking himself back and forth, the once hypersonic hero began sobbing.
"…Oops," Gemini mumbled. "Um, sorry, Sonic. I didn't mean to make you cry or anything."
"Somebody stole it!" Sonic screamed, jabbing a finger into the air. "Once I find out who stole my speed, I will tear them apart! You hear me, pal, I will find you!"
A twitch sparkled down Jet's spine. He quickly looked away, whistling underneath his breath.
"Eh? Sonic doesn't have his speed?" Eggman repeated, leaping to his feet from the back row with Scratch, Grounder and Coconuts at his side. "Come my minions, we have a world to conquer!"
"Dude, where the hell where we for the last…fifteen years or whateva?" Grounder asked in his slow voice.
"Dic's shared garbage bin with Sega," Scratch hissed venomously as they entered Eggman's hovercraft.
"At least we got cameos in Archie," Coconuts stated hopefully, "except I'm a butler monkey."
They all watched as Eggman and his old school minions crashed through the roof and went back to wherever the hell his base was. Seriously, Eggman has like forty different bases in every freaking game. Air bases, MeteorTech, Death Egg etc…Can't he even get a sliver of the world with all of the useless metal space?
"Who were those three?" Damien asked as the awkward silence passed.
"Oh, great!" Sonic sarcastically growled, leaping from his seat. "Tails, get the Tornado! Knuckles…guard the Master Emerald for once. You really stink at your job."
"I left so I can save your stupid behinds!" Knuckles roared defensively.
"…In Sonic Heroes, you just randomly left," Gemini pointed out.
"And I stole it and sold it on the black market!" Nack gleefully shouted from the cast, sitting next to Tomo/Mary-sue, Bean and Bark.
Making a mental note to throttle Nack later, Knuckles trudged after Sonic and Tails as they ran out of the room and into the streets. It was soon noted that Sonic had tripped over his own feet and landed into an ice cream cart in Apotos. He soon received a lawsuit for all the broken chocolate and ice cream.
And they're gonna save the world! YA KNOW WHY?
CUZ THEY'RE SONIC HEROES! HELL TO THE YEAH!
"Well, they're gonna fail," Damien muttered.
"Like it wasn't obvious. Without his speed, Sonic's just like a kitten,," Gemini sighed, rubbing his temple. "So, let's get to out next guests! Introduced in Babylon Bee, this team has had some topsy-turvy and pivotal moments throughout the series. Mercenaries, but trustworthy friends, Team Virtex!"
Rector, Howl, Shade, Armand, and Raine came out of their seats, waving to the audience as they cheered. The dark rose hedgehog noticed that Charmy had secretly flipped him off under their table.
"I saw that, brat," he stated.
"Saw what?" Charmy innocently questioned, cocking his head to the side juvenilely. "I'm the hero, I didn't do anything wrong."
"You pint-sized little-!"
"Rector, leave my boyfriend alone!" Raine ordered as Gemini's grin spread across his muzzle.
Glaring daggers at Charmy, he crossed his finger against his neck. The bee cringed, still smirking though just to anger the Virtex leader. Noticing Gemini's widened sneer, Rector narrowed his eyes at him as he slumped down between Armand and Shade. Howl seemed completely disinterested in the entire charade, staring off into space while Raine sat on Rector's lap.
"…So…" Damien started, staring at Rector. "…why do you hate Charmy?"
Raine glared up at Rector, hissing lowly. "Watch what you say, you may find a very dangerous toxin in your pasta tonight."
"I don't hate him, I just extremely dislike him." Rector crossed his arms, seemingly satisfied with his answer. Glancing down at Raine's glare as she slowly began to drag out a sun-colored elixir. "Okay, the thing is that Raine is my adoptive sister, and I treat the same way I treat Amy. If they're dating-" Gemini noticed that his teeth began grating together at the mere mention of that word. "-I want to know who they are, what their background is, but even if I know all of that, I'd just want to ensure that the boy treated her with respect."
"…When my brother found out I was dating this awesome chick named Lia, he just tried to kill me," Damien stated.
"That's because your brother hates you," Rector replied in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Oh, yeah!' Damien suddenly had a goofy, realizing smile plastered on his muzzle.
"So, Raine, what attracted you to Charmy?" Gemini asked as Rector's forehead had a very noticeable vein. "Okay, Rector, if you don't want to be here, you can wait outside. There's already the Anti-Charmy Club on DeviantART that you apparently joined."
"Oh, no, no, he wants to be here, it's just that Rector doesn't like it to even hear Charmy's name," Shade scoffed.
"Yeah…it's a girl's name," Rector growled, trying to compose himself but it was very hard to do when your left eye was twitching.
Believe me. I should know.
"It is not a girl's name!" Charmy shrieked. "You're just jealous cuz Raine likes me more!"
Raine throw a knock out gas to Charmy. Charmy was knocked out.
"Well, there goes the star of the story," Wave mumbled.
"So…" Damien whipped out a recorder, sneering like a stalker-like reporter and wrapped his arm around Raine's shoulder. "So, Rainey, baby, what's the low-down with you and the Charms?"
Rector's hand suddenly found itself clutching his neck and dragged the canine off the stage and dropped him into the trashcan. Raine smiled, thanking her older brother figure.
"So…seriously, if you want to…" Gemini quickly looked up to Rector as he raised an eye ridge. "…may you…please tell us the situation that you and Charmy are in?"
"Thank you for asking so nicely. Charmy and I are currently dating-" Rector gagged himself inwardly until Howl nudged him. "-and things could not be any better!"
"…That's it?" Gemini questioned, blinking.
She nodded.
"…God, that's boring! Where's all the drama? The pizzazz? The reason why that bitch named Kiba kept this sitting on her computer for five months?"
Because I'm a bitch, that's why. A lazy bitch.
Raine smacked Gemini over the head. "You're not getting anything out of me, jerk. Rector…" She turned to him with teary-eyes, eyes so pleading and watery that even Jesus himself stopped to stare and coo. "…your cousin is being rather cruel to me. It is like he is insinuating that Charmy and I are…you know." She raised her invisible eyebrows that Sonic characters don't have, but people are retarded and say they do when they don't.
Rector smiled, ruffling her hair. "It's okay, Raine. I'll handle him."
The audience "aw"ed at the affectionate gesture between the sibling-like duo. Except Psyko and Somatic. They thought it was icky, and the former wolf twin turned to his brother and whispered something very, very bad to Somatic about sibling-like relationships that Somatic snickered at. Then Rector slammed his fist in Gemini's gut, causing him to split in two as the original fell to the ground. Gemini's copy blinked, staring at him.
"…Hardcore," Psyko stated as the silence ended.
"Do it again! I wasn't looking!" Bean shouted as Bark slapped him upside the head.
Gemini Two looked as his counterpart writhed on the ground for his mother. Glancing towards the camera, he stated, "Uh, well, once we find Gemini some medical attention and get Damien back from his concussion, we'll continue."
"Hey, I didn't even get to talk!" Amy shouted.
"You just did," Espio interjected.
Everybody began speaking at once, and Amy slammed Espio over the head, screaming at him because he was right. Charmy was still unconscious as Rector was nudging Gemini with his boot.
"I think I caused internal bleeding," Rector informed with slight guilt. "…Oh, well."
…
HEY WHAT'S THIS SHIIIZ.
Something I was supposed to write after Rogues Bee was over with. It'll be a little longer than what I initially had since the chapters are shorter. Two interviews per chapter. Review, please.
