Hello, fellow fanfic authors! Taking a break from the Kid Icarus fics I've been writing, I decided to write another crossover fic. This one is a crossover of Sonic and Street Fighter centered around Metal Sonic and Emerl. I wrote this story because I believe that Metal Sonic and Emerl are similar, if only because they can copy powers from people. This story kinda focuses on their differences a little and also gives Metal Sonic a chance to be in the spotlight. Also, Metal Sonic won't talk in this fic. A self-imposed test to see if I can write a voiceless character. Please read, review, and enjoy.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Metallic Hero
In the town of Metropolis, There was a strange figure walking about. It was a strange Hedgehog-shaped robot. At first glance, some might mistake this peculiar contraption for Sonic. But this was not Sonic by any means. This was Metal Sonic, a robotic duplicate of the real Blue Blur created by the notorious Dr. Eggman as a means of defeating Sonic. As defeating Sonic was his sole purpose for existing, Metal Sonic tried his hardest to defeat his organic counterpart. But no matter what he did, Sonic always came out on top. He once went against Eggman and tried to take over the world for himself, not that he ever cared about that old fart in the first place. But Sonic managed to defeat him. He even tried something as mundane as beating Sonic in an Extreme Gear race, yet the hedgehog still won!
Part of him was starting to believe he'd never defeat Sonic, but he refused to entertain that thought. One of the things he inherited from Sonic was his iron-forged determination. He would defeat Sonic, no matter what it took. As the robotic hedgehog passed by a magazine stand, all he saw was Sonic, Sonic, Sonic. The Blue Blur has just won another EX Grand Prix race against Jet and the Bablylon Rouges. Though Metal Sonic would never admit it, there was a hidden layer of jealousy. Everything Sonic touched turned to gold. He was practically a celebrity. But not Metal Sonic. He was just a tool for a bungling scientist. As Metal Sonic stared at the magazines, his anger grew and grew until finally he used his Plasma Pulse Attack, firing an energy blast from the compression chamber inside his torso and incinerating the stand.
Internally pleased with his deed, Metal Sonic began to walk away until he heard a voice. "Hey, you gotta pay for those, Jackass!" He turned around to see the owner of the magazine stand, his posture one that indicated anger. "Yeah, I'm talking to you, prick!" he shouted. "You plan on paying for those?" Metal Sonic wasn't in the mood to deal with this idiot and started to walk away. "What, you think just because you look like Sonic means you can do whatever the hell you want?" he went on. "Here's a news flash: You might look like Sonic, but you're nothing like him. You're just a tin can with an attitude." That caused Metal Sonic to stop in his tracks, his head turning a full 360 degrees to glare at the man with a murderous look.
"Got your attention, huh? Good." The man said, seemingly unaware that Metal Sonic was inches away from killing him. "Now why don't you come over here and clean up this mess?" Metal Sonic walked towards the man, but before he could utter another word, Metal Sonic's hand was around his throat, hoisting him high in the air. "Hey! L-L-Look, I'm sorry okay?! You don't have to worry about paying me!" The man struggled to breathe. Metal Sonic then threw him against a dumpster. The man tried to scurry away, but Metal Sonic grabbed him and punched him in the face before throwing him against a wall. He pinned him there while raising his free hand, intending to impale him with his claws.
But before he coudl do so, he felt someone or something grab his arm. Metal Sonic turned around to find a strange looking robot grab his arm. The robot was mostly mustard-yellow in color with with traces of orange on some parts. Its hands, arms, and legs were brown. It's eyes were blue and the part where its mouth would be was beige. But the most noticeable feature was the orange fin on its head. This was Emerl, Cream's best friend. He was a Gizoid, a robot who could copy the powers of others, like Metal Sonic. He was found by Dr. Eggman in another attempt for world domination. He initially discarded the Gizoid, where Emerl met Sonic and his friends. From his interactions with them, he learned many things. But sadly, Eggman enacted a scheme that caused Emerl's old programming to kick in, forcing Sonic to destroy him.
Some time later, Eggman managed to rebuilt and reprogram him for yet another attempt at world domination. But Sonic managed to thwart him. Emerl was found damaged on a beach by Cream, and Tails managed to remove the programming that made him violently loyal to Eggman. From then on, he lived a moderately peaceful life with Cream, though he would help out Sonic and co. when needed. Today he was on his way to the grocery store for Cream when he saw Metal Sonic attacking this man. Sonic had warned him about his robotic doppelganger, but he wouldn't stand by and let someone get hurt.
"Why don't you pick on someone your own size?" Emerl asked. Metal Sonic responded by throwing Emerl off of him. The man scurried away as the two robots stared each other down. Metal Sonic gave a few beeps and buzzes to voice his annoyance. He could talk normally, but just didn't feel like it. "I make it my buisness when you hurt innocent people." Emerl replied. Metal Sonic started to raidate electricity. This was his V. Maximum Overdrive attack. Emerl barely had time to react before Metal Sonic crashed into him, sending them both through several buildings before crashing into an abandoned warehouse.
Emerl quickly got to his feet. If Metal Sonic wanted a fight, he'd gladly give him one! Emerl charged at Metal Sonic with blinding speed to deliver a punch to his face. The punch connected and sent the metal hedgehog flying back into a wall. Metal Sonic pushed himself off the wall and did a Spin Dash towards Emerl. Emerl jumped out of the way and performed a Homing Attack. Metal Sonic countered with his own Homing Attack, the two forcing each other backwards. Metal Sonic attacked with a Chaos Spear, a trick he copied from Shadow. Emerl brought up a red barrier to defend himself. He quickly scanned Metal Sonic for any skills, then attacked with his own Chaos Spear. So it seemed Emerl could copy powers just like he could. Metal Sonic would have to be careful. He activated his Black Shield, creating a diamond shaped barrier of black energy to defend against it before firing blasts of electricity from his hands.
Emerl dodged them all and did his own Spin Dash, charging at Metal Sonic before performing a spin kick that knocked him off balance. He then followed up with an upper kick that sent him to the celing. Enraged, Metal Sonic charged at Emerl, delivering a series of fast punches. Matching him blow-for-blow with equal speed, Emerl countered each blow before delivering a strong kick to the chest and sending Metal Sonic into a wall. Emerl quickly fired a small missile at him. Metal Sonic tried to acitvate his Black Shield, but was too late. The missle hit him dead-center, Sending him through the wall and knocking him out. Emerl walked over to him. He was damaged, but still functional. "And let that be a lesson to you!" he said triumphantly.
His moment of victory, however, was interrupted by the sound of slow clapping. He turned to see a purple glow in the darkness. Out of the shadows came a young woman. Her hair was black and styled into two horn-like bangs at the top of her head, which appeared to be fastened with pink ribbons. Her eyes were a brilliant shade of purple and her left eye in particular was glowing purple. She wore a purple dudou (a form of Chinese underwear) on her chest supported with eight straps that meet on her back, forming a spider pattern. She wore long, baggy, off-white colored trousers and purple tights, held together by a long black sash the hung from behind, giving the appearance of a tail. She also wore long, fingerless gloves with spiked bands on her wrists. Her fingernails and toenails were painted bright pink. Taekwondo foot wraps adorned her bare feet.
"Wow, I'm impressed." The girl said as she placed a hand on her hip and twirled her sash in a seductive pose. "I've seen you fight. You've got some pretty nice moves... for a bucket of bolts."
"And who are you?" Emerl asked.
"The name's Juri Han." the girl replied. "I'd remember it if I were you. So, you're a 'Gizoid', huh?" That made Emerl suspicious. Not many people knew about Gizoids aside from Sonic and his friends, so how did she know about them? Emerl's stance became a bit guarded. "So what if I am?" he asked a bit more pointedly. Juri walked to the side, placing her hands together like a schoolgirl. "I've heard Gizoids are pretty tough fighters." She began. "And nothing gets my blood pumping than two guys seriously trying to kill each other." She licked her lips in an unsettlingly sexual manner before turning to face Emerl. "So... think you can entertain a girl for awhile?"
This girl seemed really creepy to Emerl, and she also looked a bit dangerous. Emerl knew better than pick fights with people he didn't know. "Look, lady. I don't know you. And I'm a little busy right now. Maybe some other time." And with that Emerl started towards the door. But just as he reached the door, Juri appeared in front of him, moving at blinding speed. "I don't recall giving you a choice." she said. Emerl glared at her. "You seriously don't wanna do this." he said. "Oh I do." Juri replied as she reared back to deliver a powerful kick. Emerl backflipped away and dropped into a fighting stance. "Alright, if that's how you wanna play. Just remember: You brought this on yourself!"
Emerl charged forward and performed a Spin Dash towards Juri. Juri jumped out of the way just as Emerl ricocheted off a wall with a Homing Attack, striking Juri from behind before sending her to the ground with an Axel Kick. Emerl proceeded to deliver a hard punch to the chest, but Juri moved away at the last second. Her eye glowing purple, she threw a blast of purple energy at Emerl with her kick. Emerl brought up a barrier to defend against it, then retaliated with a blast of Chaos Energy from his hand, hitting Juri dead-center. Emerl quickly followed up with a series of lightning fast punches, ending it with a powerful kick that sent her flying back.
Emerl cautiously walked over to her to see if she was alright. He never fought to kill. When he got closer, he heard Juri snicker a bit. The snicker then turned into a full blown giggle as she laughed hysterically. Startled, Emerl backed away as Juri continued laughing. The laughter continued for a full five minutes. "This girl's completely nuts." He thought to himself. Juri finally managed to calm down enough to speak. "Wow, he was right! You are good!" she exclaimed. "That's it, baby! Give it to me hard! Let's take it slow and have some real fun!" she dropped into a Taekwondo stance, glaring at Emerl with a crazed expression. "I've gotta finish this." he thought. He used his Copycat ability and scanned her for any moves, then replicated her stance perfectly.
"So you can copy moves." Juri said. "Good, make this interesting." Her eye began to glow as she leaped into the air to deliver a strong pinwheel kick. Emerl blocked with his arms before moving to punch her in the chest. Juri brought up her knee to block then retaliated with a kick, sending him to the wall. Glowing with puple energy, Juri charged towards Emerl. But Emerl charged foward using his jetpack. Headbutting Juri before performing a kick that hurled her upwards. Emerl then grabbed her by the leg and threw her against a wall. Before Juri could even retailate, Emerl gave her a hard elbow to the stomach. Juri crumpled to her knees, clutching her stomach in pain. "So, had enough?" Emerl asked.
"Yeah... Not bad... bucket butt." Juri panted, not facing Emerl.. "You definitely know how to show a girl a good time."
"Sorry, I had to get rough with you, but you started it." Emerl said. "You need help standing up?"
"Don't worry..." She replied before quickly looking up at Emerl with another crazed expression. "I'm fine!" she quickly pulled out a taser and jammed it into Emerl's chest. Emerl screamed as electicity spider-webbed through his body before his functions shut down, rendering him unconscious. Juri stood up and twirled the taser in her hand before blowing into it like a gun. "Too damn trusting." She said. "It must suck to be so stupid." She then pressed the commuincator in her ear. "Okay, boss. I've got your present." she said.
"You have the target? Excellent." A male voice replied. "An airship should be heading to your location in about five minutes."
"Good." she said as she hoisted the unconscious Emerl over her shoulder. She was about to walk out the door when who should stop her but Metal Sonic, using a Homing Attack to knock her to the ground and causing her to drop Emerl. "What the hell?!" She exclaimed, startled by the metal hedgehog in front of her. Metal Sonic gave a few beeps and buzzes saying that Emerl was his opponent and he wanted a rematch. "Okay, I don't have the slghtest idea what your saying." Juri replied. "And frankly, I don't give a fuck. So unless you wanna be turned to scrap metal, back off."
Metal Sonic responded with his Plasma Pulse Attack, firing a laser from his chest. Juri cartwheeled out of the way. "Okay, then. I've got five minutes till my ride arrives." Juri said as her eye began to glow. " Let's see if I can tear you apart in that time!" Metal Sonic used another Homing Attack, but Juri countered with a kick, sending him into a wall. Metal tossed rapid volleys of energy blasts at Juri, but the martial artist dodged each one before somesaulting over Metal Sonic to deliver another kick to the back of his head. Metal became enraged and slashed at Juri's face with his claws. Juri screamed and reeled back in pain, clutching her face. She then glared at Metal Sonic with a murderous look, her face sporting a nasty cut.
"You... Bastard!" she shouted. "I'll kill you! I'll fucking kill you!" At that point, her whole body began to glow with purple energy. Metal Sonic responded by overclocking his systems, preparing his V. Maximum Overdrive Attack. Juri then charged foward as Metal Sonic did the same. The resulting collision resulted in a massive explosion that completely leveled the warehouse. When the smoke cleared, Metal Sonic was on his knees with smoke billowing out of him. Juri was standing upright, albeit breathing hard. "Say, boss." Juri said. "I've got another crazy robot. What to do with it?"
"Ignore it." the male voice replied. "We need only the Gizoid. He is irrelevant." Juri walked over to Metal Sonic, who was too tired to react thanks to his overuse of the V. Maximum Overdrive. "You're lucky I've got places to be, asshole." She hissed as gave the metal hedgehog a contemptous kick in the face. She grabbed the still-unconscious Emerl, who managed to survive the explosion unscathed, just in time for the plane to land. Metal Sonic watched in cold anger as Juri entered the plane with Emerl and took off. If Metal Sonic were organic, his blood would be boiling. Defeated twice in the same day?! Unforgivable! Normally he'd leave well enough alone and leave Emerl to his fate, but there was no way he was going to take this wound on his pride lying down! He wanted a rematch, and he wanted them to pay.
With his resolved hardened, Metal Sonic activated his jetpack and took off after the plane, with revenge on his mind. Both Juri and Emerl would pay for his humilation.
Well, that's the first chapter! I hope you'll enjoy this story.
