Chapter 2 – A Way to Make an Entrance
Sonic didn't even flinch at Knuckles' voice. He calmly started walking towards the school. Knuckles quickly stormed up to Sonic.
"Don't even freakin' think about it Sonic! You gonna wait for the REAL hostage negotiator to show up, you hear me!?"
Sonic didn't pay a bit of attention. He just kept walking, not even looking at Knuckles.
"Dammit Sonic, I'm talking to you! The last time you pulled this action hero shit, people lost body parts!"
Sonic kept walking.
"That's it! You go in there, and it's your badge!"
Sonic chucked his badge over his shoulder to Knuckles, still never looking at him. As he got closer to the school, a woman confronted Sonic.
"Sonic, I know as the mayor of Los Angeles we've had out little tiffs, but I've got the Lieutenant Governor here!"
The Lieutenant Governor stepped forward.
"Sonic, listen, what I propose to do is – "
Sonic spin dashed him, sending him flying through the air and onto the hood of a cop car.
"When the GOVERNOR gets here, call me," Sonic retorted.
The mayor rushed over to check on the unconscious Lieutenant Governor, Knuckles rushed up and saw what had happened. With a snarl, Knuckles took out his radio.
"Attention, Sonic is attempting to enter the building! Do NOT let him in! I repeat, DO NOT LET HIM IN!" the echidna howled through clenched teeth, making it next to impossible to understand him.
An officer crouched by the door of the school heard the transmission and responded.
"Piece of cake, man!"
The officer spun around to see a pair of red sneakers in front of him. The officer looked fearfully up into Sonic's face.
"Hey, do you want to be a farmer? Cause here's a couple of "achers".
Sonic then kicked the officer in the face, sending him flying back about 5 feet. He then caught the cop's radio out of the air.
"Hey Knuckles, you try that again, and I'll REALLY hurt the next one," Sonic said with a bit of a humorous note in his voice.
"Dammit, Sonic, don't go in there! If you do, I'll – "
The rest of the transmission was cut off as Sonic crushed the radio with his hand. He then reached down to his beltline and picked up his giant, ¾ foot long, .50 caliber Desert Eagle handgun, cocked it, and walked inside the school.
"Attention," Knuckles said into his radio, "Sonic the Hedgehog has entered the building. I say again, Sonic the Hedgehog is in the building!"
The screams of children could now be heard coming from the roof. Knuckles looked at the school in a look of terror in his eyes.
