Underground

Chapter 1: Resistance

A light blue chameleon with two normal blue thick locks of hair sighed and ducked his head as he entered the pub-like building. He was a tall, slender specimen, he would have had many muscles obvious if he didn't wear a black shirt with turned down collar and breast pocket, and black coat over that. Besides those two articles, he wore black sunglasses over his crimson eyes, black baggy pants with yellow straps and two chains, one on each pant leg, hanging in a casual manner, and black fingerless gloves, as well as brown and black hiking boots with three straps on the side pointing outwards.

"...And apparently Robotnik is going to have another parade soon." The person that the yellow cat was talking to snorted, "To celebrate what?" "His anniversary of catching Sonic the Hedgehog and Shadow the Hedgehog." The cat sighed, "With them went all hope of ever beating Robotnik." "Not all." Said the chameleon quietly, putting a hand on the cat's shoulder, "John!" The chameleon smiled faintly, "Yes Rack?" "You're back! We didn't know if you'd make it." The cat embraced the chameleon, "Well I did, were is Sonia?" Rack's face lost it's happiness. "Sitting in her room with Manic." John sighed, "I'll go see her, may I have the key?" Rack handed John the key to Sonia and Manic's room.

The door opened, "Sonia? Manic?" The two siblings looked up, "May we go rescue our brother yet?" They asked, iron hands grabbed John's heart and tried to rip it in two when he saw the looks on the two siblings faces, "I'm sorry, we can't yet." They slumped, "What do you want then?" Asked Sonia. John exhaled, "Sonia, Manic, I want you to come with me, you need to train me. Robotnik is going to have another parade soon, and the only time we'll be able to save Sonic and Shadow is when Robotnik is showing off his victory." Manic's voice sounded bitter when he spoke, "Oh yeah? The victory he made years ago." John decided to try a new idea of his. "How would you like to practice? If we get good enough before the deadline, I promise to allow you to try and rescue Sonic and Shadow." They looked up, slightly hopeful, "And how do we know you'll keep your promise?" "Yeah, you locked us up in here the instant we proposed trying to save Sonic." "Because it was impossible, Robotnik had too many guards, and you wouldn't have been able to do anything, except get caught."

But after awhile, they agreed, and followed John out of the room for the first time in years. Rack leapt off his chair, knelt and kissed Sonia's hand. "Princess." "Please don't Rack." She whispered. He stood and bowed to Manic, "Your highness." John took out a hidden pistol, and shot it, breaking a cup. Silence immediately fell. John stood on the bar, "Resistance, Sonia and Manic are going to train with me, and on the day of the parade, we are going to free Sonic and Shadow, as well as all the others who Robotnik has caught. To Sonic." "SHADOW!" "KNUCKLES!" "TAILS!" "SIR CHARLES!" "JULES!" "And to Queen Aleena. Wherever she may be." Finished John quietly. "Sonia, Manic, I think you will want to get some exercise." They nodded. "What missions are there to be done at the moment Trap?" John asked a pheonix, the pheonix quickly typed something into his computer, "Only retrieval." "Retrieval of what?" "Well there are thirty different ones, the one at the top is for retrieval of some kind of cannon Robotnik's made that can seek out any organic lifeforms that it's given the reading for." John smiled, "Well if we can capture that, we can turn it on Robotnik." "You mean Robuttnik." Laughed Manic, John smiled, "I'm sorry, I must have made an error." Sonia was smiling too now. "So, what do we do now?" "Get our weapons." "But you have a pistol?" "Yes Manic, but I'll need ammunition, and more than one weapon, in case one stops working, you're medallions will never stop unless they run out of energy, so we have no need to worry there."

The siblings nodded, the resistance was whole again, they had strong leaders, and they were going to regain some of their best members.

Author note: I got this idea out of nowhere, I hope you like it, it's my first one with Manic and Sonia in it. PLEASE REVIEW IF YOU CAN!
