Fire and ice
Chapter one : The awakening
The mech crashed to the floor, sending shards of metal everywhere. Across station square, there was a ringing of broken and warping metal. Eggman, crawling from the wreck, started to run, iwaddling, as usual. Sonic landed the jump, and grinned. "That was too easy!".
One day later, earth, New York.
"So Sonic, how did you defeat Eggman this time? His mech seems to be very powerful!" A blonde news reporter asked him.
"Oh it was easy, I just saw the weak spot on his head and spindashed it!" He boasted. Tails was just outside the group of news reporters, but he could still hear Sonic. He was starting to get tired of Sonic taking all the credit. In actual fact, he had flown around the mech, both distracting it, and locating it's weak spot, then informing Sonic where to strike, via com-radio.
One hour later, earth, mystic ruins, tails' workshop.
Tails was thinking. Thinking about Sonic. Thinking about his big-headedness. Tails normally didn't think Sonic could possibly do wrong. But... Tails had started to bore of being Sonic's sidekick, always in his shadow... he needed to talk to someone, but who... Amy still thinks sonic is perfect, Big is... well... Big, Shadow might kill him on sight... but who... "Knuckles!" Tails said aloud, and sprang up. He was perfect, or would be... if it weren't for the fact that Knuckles hates him... maybe he would let him on the island if he had an excuse... tails slowly grinned.
Twenty three hours earlier, earth, Eggman's base.
Eggman waddled home, after his mech had been destroyed by Tails and Sonic. He growled. He went into his creation room, his workshop. It was full of stasis tubes, Metal sonic, Mecha sonic, Metal knuckles, Tails doll, Silver sonic, but the next two were different... The next two were less robotic than the others, one of them had orange skin, and looked like Sonic, the next one looked like Shadow, with a light blue body, and dark blue streaks, the both had silvery cores pertruding from their torsos, which were hollow in the middle. Eggman picked up a pile of blueprints, and looked through them, one for a submarine with flamethrowers could be seen, and a huge mech, with a drill for a head. "Yosh!" He said, as he found one with a picture of a very simple looking shadow, his spikes were straight, with no streaks, and he lacked detail. Also he had one with a picture of the eclipse cannon, again very basic. He grinned, and that grin evolved into a snigger, and that snigger evolved into a chuckle, and that chuckle... became a full blown evil laugh.
Current time, earth, Angel island, nearby airspace.
Tails was flying towards angel island in the Tornado 3, and humming to the words of "live and learn" (Crush 40) holding his com-radio under his arm. He was going to deliver it to Knuckles, com-radio was Knuckles only communication with the world. This upgraded version had longer range, and was clearer. He was nearly there, and he could see a shouting Knuckles, who, if he weren't already red, would be... whoops, Tails forgot to ask Knuckles. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING VISITING MY BLOODY ISLAND!?!" was one phrase Tails managed to hear.
Current time, earth, Sonic's house.
Sonic was sitting on the sofa, thinking about Eggman, wondering what he would do next, suddenly he was hit by a pang of guilt, about not giving Tails credit, he had honestly forgot. He silenced the voice and got back to his thoughts about Eggman...
Current time, earth, Eggman's base.
Eggman watched hopefully, as the first hedgehog opened his eyes, they were orange and glowing, and looked like smouldering embers. Wordlessly he smashed open the tube, and stared at Eggman, Eggman chuckled. On the side of the core, there was a little Eggman symbol, it was flashing and beeping.
The next hedgehog bust out of his tube, and opened his eyes, his were blue and glowing, there was a pattern, like a ripple, on the pupils, that moves like waves. He had the same wordless stare, and Eggman symbol. "Now then, let's test you against my 'bots!" Eggman said with a snigger. All of the tubes opened up, and the robots activated. The hedgehogs, looked at each other and nodded, the orange one curled up in a fiery spindash, and the blue one threw him at the now charging Silver Sonic, he collided, melting, and slicing, until only a silver mush was left. The blue hedgehog now froze the charging Mecha Sonic's jet engines, stunning him, as he was doing so, metal sonic blasted him backwards with an eye-lazer. The hog, was knocked off balance, but the orange hedgehog, picked him up, and melted metal sonic. As Mecha Sonic was thawing his thrusters, Metal Knuckles charged, and stabbed the blue hedgehog, with his fists, the wound bled blue blood, that froze almost instantly, he did not flinch. He created a frozen layer around his fist, and punched, sending Metal Knux through the wall. They narrowly dodged a lazer blast from the jewel on metal tails, and they swung each other around, fast, creating what can only be described as a fire-ice tornado. They launched at Metal Tails, freezing him to the core, and then melting him. Mecha Sonic rammed the orange hedgehog into a wall, he hit with a slam, bright orange blood trickled down his face. The orange hedgehog charged, almost as fast as Sonic, except fiery. Mecha sonic hit the wall, and literally fell to pieces.
"Nice work!" Eggman voice said, through a speaker, attached to the wall, "but how can you cope with... THE EGGBREAKER V2!". A wall broke down, and standing there was Eggman, in a mech, he could be seen at the top. One arm had a large spiked mace, the other had a large pulse rifle of some description. The pulse rifle began to charge, with a large purple ball. The hedgehogs took fighting stances.
