"Aargh, I Can't Believe This!". The man clad in a red jacket and
black pants slapped the palm of his gloved hand against his forehead and
gritted his teeth for a moment. The blue hedgehog smirked a waved a finger
mockingly, "What in our history would make you think you could win
Eggman?". Eggman frowned and pulled his hand from his face. Adjusting his
glasses, then grasping the controller firmly in his hand, he leaned back on
the couch and sighed. "Well our history is a bit different than doing
battle in an electronic game", he said with slight remorse.
Sonic the hedgehog laughed and nodded, turning his attention back to the television screen. He gave Eggman a quick glance and questioned, "So, do you want to try again?". Eggman gave a smirk and nodded, "I can still catch up."
Over in an opposing corner, the orange fox Miles was sitting cross- legged, facing away from everyone else. His hands moved busily as he grabbed various instruments; he was obviously hard at work on some device. A loud pop made him jump slightly and he turned around and gave the kitchen a glance; a pink hedgehog and yellow rabbit where busy as well, only they where busy cooking. Amy laughed and turned the heat down on the stove. Wiping her forehead with the back of her gloved hand, she sighed, then smiled. Cream the rabbit gave a soft giggle; the heat on the oven had been too hot and the pot on the stovetop had over-heated, making a loud sound as the top had popped off: the sound Miles had heard.
Miles closed his eyes for a moment and let out a yawn. As he opened his eyes again, he gave the house a quick glance. He went from Amy and Cream in the kitchen cooking, to Sonic and Eggman sitting at the couch facing the television; Eggman had apparently just lost again, because he had let out a curse. Miles' mouth gave a slight twitch as he saw the red echidna and white bat sitting in another couch which faced away from Miles and towards a second television. Since he was young, he let out a silent gag; Knuckle's and Rouge's heads looked a bit too close. Turning back around, he looked down to his current project and smiled proudly. To someone that was not familiar with technology, it looked like a simple metal box with a thick outer shell and a lot of little circuits and computerized pieces. The most interesting part would have been the seven diamond-shaped holes in the center; each hole was about six inches wide and about five inches deep.
Nodding to himself, Miles reached down and grabbed a wrench that he had left on the floor. He spun the wrench around in his fingers for a moment, before latching it on to a loose bolt and turning it to tighten the bolt up. He let out an "eep" and jumped up again; Eggman had just let out a very loud curse. It had appeared to startle everyone, because Amy had let out a scream and had dropped a potato she was preparing. Knuckles head fully popped up over the back of the couch and stared over at where Sonic and Eggman where sitting. His eyes where narrowed and he was frowning, "Can you guys keep it down over there? Some of us are trying to watch a movie". With that, his head dropped back down so only the top of it was showing over the back of the couch.
Eggman glanced over to where Knuckles was and grimaced. "Watching a movie? Yah, right." He thought as he watched the top of Knuckles and Rouge's heads go closer again. He blinked behind his circular glasses, then quickly swerved his head back to the television; Sonic had continued to play when he had looked away. He growled and began pushing buttons on his controller rapidly, "You sneaky Hedgehog, we'll see who wins This time!".
Eggman suddenly laughed inside as he saw the screen more clearly; They had reached a puzzle. With an IQ of 300, Eggman had this level in the bag. As Sonic had just figured out what the puzzle wanted him to do, Eggman had already completed more than a quarter of it. Sonic gritted his teeth and leaned forward, pressing buttons more furiously in an attempt to catch up. Eggman simply smirked and continued on, pressing buttons at a calm speed. He was making every move with precision and perfection. As Eggman reached the end, Sonic was still only around the middle. Eggman let out a laugh and took his left hand off of the controller, pointing a gloved index finger at Sonic. "You loose Spike-Boy", he mocked. Sonic growled for a second, but then smirked, "Well, since I've beaten you twenty-five out of twenty-six games, I thought I'd throw you a bone. Eggman furrowed his brow and quickly shot Sonic the bird, before placing both hands on the controller and giving the television his attention.
A sudden whistle came form the kitchen as steam escaped a pot on the stovetop. Cream quickly ran over and turned the heat on that burner off, and Amy smiled and waved a hand up in the air, "Dinner time everyone!".
Sonic the hedgehog laughed and nodded, turning his attention back to the television screen. He gave Eggman a quick glance and questioned, "So, do you want to try again?". Eggman gave a smirk and nodded, "I can still catch up."
