As always all my copyright info is on the first chapter
Apocolypse's Revival : A Sonic Heroes Story.
Prologue
Deep in the darkness that is Eggman's base stands a blue hedgehog shaped shadow. It is the shadow of Metal Sonic, recovering from his defeat at the hands of the Sonic heroes. After capturing the life data of Team Sonic, Team Dark, Team Rose and team Chaotix, added to the chaos data from chao and the mysterious froggy, he became the Metal Overlord but was soon overthrown by Supersonic and his super charged team mates. He's faster than Sonic, Stronger in every way, yet every time he faces the blue hog he fails. He'll always remember the day when Sonic beat him in the Stardust speedway race. The term 'illogical' has gone through his CPU many times, enough to make any robot short circuit, yet he remains 100% functional.
"Even with the power of Chaos and the life data of the four teams you still failed. You are my greatest creation yet just like everything else you've failed me. You turned your back on me and you lost. Face it metal, you need me", Said Eggman who was circling Metal Sonic.
"I need no-one. I alone must destroy Sonic. There is only one Sonic, me. I will destroy Sonic even if it destroys me, he will die at my hands", said Metal Sonic clasping the spikes than made his fingers into a fist.
"You've tried your best and failed. You want to know why? Teamwork. It was Team Sonic the brought you down, not Sonic. You are naturally fast, you need flying sidekick and a powerhouse at your side", Said Eggman.
"I NEED NO-ONE!!" Shouted Metal Sonic in a rage.
"Metal, what is your primary objectives. The one's you're programmed to follow", Said Eggman.
"Number 1 protect and obey Dr. Ivo Robotnik at all times, Number 2 destroy the sonic heroes, Number 3 protect and enforce the interests of the Eggman empire on the people of Earth", Said Metal Sonic.
"Exactly. Giving you intelligence has been both a curse and a blessing. The blessing being obvious, the curse being disobedience. You WILL follow my orders, you will team up with these two and follow out these new objectives", said Eggman.
"As you wish Eggman", Said Metal Sonic.
"Now I want you to obtain the life and chaos data you had before. Furthermore I want you to bring the Master Emerald to me. If any of the Sonic heroes get in your way destroy them, be it Team Sonic, Shadow's team, Amy's team, or those pain in the ass Chaotix detectives", Said Eggman.
"Understood Master", said Metal Sonic.
Yeah I'll follow your orders for now. The world needs a new overlord, and by all rights it should be me. And Sonic if you meet me again, I'll give you your rematch. I won't rest until I've destroyed you.
"What about you two, do you understand what your missions are?" asked Eggman.
"Yes, we will not fail you", Said one mysterious voice.
"Lead the way Metal", Said another. And the three left.
"Those fools. They really think I'd leave everything to them. Those three losers? No, I have many plans, each of which have already begun. I'll keep each team busy while I'll awaken you, the Ultimate weapon of mass destruction, codenamed apocalypse", Said Eggman, "And with you I'll conquer the world, if the other plans succeed it'll be helpful but not necessary. Soon the world will learn to fear Dr. Ivo Robotnik, they will learn to fear the Eggman empire", Said Eggman who ended his speech with one big maniacal laugh.
