WOW! It's been how long since I actually wrote a story? Ah well, anyway, Kaity the Chameleon it (C) to moi, Waffle the Fox is (C) to Waffle the Fox and Snow the White Tiger is (C) to Rad-Red (DeviantART account name)

Chapter 1: This is How it Happened

The alarms around the team of detectives yelled loudly, telling anyone within Eggman's new base that the intruders had somethin that Eggman both stole and needed; the light blue chaos emerald. Vector and Waffle took the lead, smashing any robots that got in the way of their escape. Snow and Charmy followed close to the fox and crocodile, taking on anything that may pass the two. Espio kept Kaity, the carrier of the emerald, out of the line of fire from the enemy.

OoOoO

Eggman managed to catch the team on one of his monitors, despite that most of the camera's had already gone hey-wire, or disconnected. He aimed his newly made weapon at the chameleon carrying the emerald.
"Ready...Aim..." Eggman said as he readied to fire.

"Doctor, do you really think it's a good idea to use that machine? It hasn't been tested yet." Decoe said.

"Decoe is right, Doctor, shouldn't we teat it before it's used?" agreed Bocoe.

Eggman grinned evilly, "for once, you've had a good idea; these pests can be my test subjects...Fire!" He yelled and slammed his fist down on a red button.

OoOoO

Outside of the control room, the Chaotix ran, but none of them saw the blue laser coming at the duo running in the back. Only Espio saw it, but by then, it was too late to move. The beam struck the two hard, and both chameleons were on the ground. Waffle was the first to notice.

"Vector! They've been hit!" she called over her shoulder as she dashed toward her friends and boyfriend. Vector and Snow skidded to a stop and followed to the three on the ground. Kaity was the first one up, as soon as she was aware of everything, she noticed that she'd never let the emerald go. Espio was next to stir. Waffle instantly wrapped her arms around Espio.

"Are you okay?" she asked.

"I'm fine, Waffle." Espio said, "Come on, I dunno what that was, but I didn't like it." The six quickly agreed and continued their run from Eggman's base, fully aware of the planted bombs that would go off in just seconds.

OoOoO

As soon as the Chaotix and their crew of three girls were outside, they dove for cover.

"Three...Two...One..." Charmy counted down. No sooner then the word 'one' then was the base blown to smithereens and those who planted the bombs were protected by an ironically placed piece of scrap metal roughly the size of one and a half Vectors. "Whoa! Cool!" Charmy yelled as pieces of the fortress flew over their heads.

"Espio, you and Waffle get what we came for?" Vector asked, avoiding Charmy's comment. Espio nodded and held up a floppy disk, the emerald was more of a bonus Kaity and Snow had found while searching for useful material. Vector gave the chameleon a thumbs-up. "Snow, Kaity, you two find anything else good?" the croc asked, turning to the chameleon and white tiger.

"What could be better then finding a chaos emerald?" Kaity commented.

"Seven chaos emeralds!!" Charmy put in, doing a flip, which he quickly retreated from upon seeing the flying debris coming at him.

"Shut up, Charmy." Kaity grumbled. The six quickly ran back to the Chaotix Detective Agency, seeing that the metal rain wasn't going to stop anytime soon.

OoOoO

As soon as they got in, they examined the emerald they'd been lucky enough to snatch from the enemy.

"Are we gonna give it to Sonic, Vector?" Charmy asked.

"Yeah, why not?" Vector shrugged, "Go home girls, we'll take this to Sonic tomorrow, it's too late right now." He said, pointing to a clock that read 11:50.

"Fine, bye Espio." Waffle smiled, giving the male chameleon a quick kiss and following after her friends.

Yeah, I finally decided to bring this story back, but with some changes. So yeah...have fun...
