Day 001: Project commences,
I, Doctor Ivo Robotnik, have finally come to a conclusion on how to defeat my nemesis, Sonic the Hedgehog. Whenever my greatest robotic creations have that pesky blue rodent cornered, he always uses those Chaos Emeralds to defeat me. My plan begins with this little object, a shard collected from the master emerald shrine along with a piece of its power.
? POV:
I eventually woke up in a cell in Eggman's base, though I'm not sure how long I was out. By the way, my name is Amy Rose. I'm about 15 years old, a mobian hedgehog with pink, shoulder-length quills. The reason I'm in this situation is because I was on a personal mission to get some information on what Eggman has been doing the last few months. You see, Eggman is this evil scientist who keeps trying to take over the world. So my friends and I always interfere with his plans. Our leader is Sonic, an 18 year old blue hedgehog who can run faster than the speed of sound. He's mostly a thrill seeker, and his love for danger is pretty much the main reason he keeps fighting Eggman. That, and he does what he thinks is right.
Actually, I used to have a crush on him, since he saved me from one of Eggman's robots when we were little kids. The reason I say, used to, is because I overheard him talking to a friend of ours before I got into this mess. His name is Miles Prower, but we call him Tails. You see, he's a golden furred fox with two tails, hence the nickname. He's actually a super genius when it comes to machines and engineering, and he's only 13. Also, he can actually use his two tails to fly in the air, by spinning them like a helicopter.
Tails met Sonic a couple of years after he saved me. See, Tails has had his twin tails and mechanical genius for as long as he can remember, and his gifts often lead him to grief in his early days. A lot of people bullied him, and smashed his inventions just for fun. Also, he doesn't have any parents, so all of that is a lot for a kid to take on a daily basis. One day, Tails stumbled upon an old bi-plane, and being the little tinkerer he is, he couldn't help but work on the plane. A few hours later, Sonic came along and found Tails working on his bi-plane, and Tails thought he was in trouble. But, Sonic liked the improvements the fox made, and they ended up being friends, as close as brothers now that I think about it.
About a year after that, I ran into Sonic again, with a bone-crushing hug for my blue hero. I soon met Tails, and while he was shy at first, we became fast friends, and sometimes partners in getting Sonic to fall in love with me.
Anyway, after my most recent attempt at getting Sonic to fall for me, he was talking to Tails about what happened and how upset he was. I'll admit, I went too far this time, and I baked some cookies to give to Sonic as an apology. When I was about to ring the doorbell, I heard some shouting from a nearby window. I couldn't help but listen to what they were talking about, though I wish I didn't. I won't go into great detail, but even though I deserved some of the things he said, he was far out of line. So I left the cookies on the porch and ran off.
When I got home, I felt strange. Not really heartbroken, but rather empty, like I lost something. Then I looked at a picture of the three of us I keep by the sofa, and realized it. I lost every ounce of love and respect I had for Sonic. I decided that I didn't need him and I was going to prove it.
Eggman had recently done some strange things over the last few months. True, going after the Chaos Emeralds and failing is pretty much his routine, but these attempts were different. When Eggman tried to rob a jewelry store holding a Chaos Emerald, he only sent one robot after it, and he didn't even bother to watch in person. Next, when he fought Sonic over two Chaos Emeralds, he sent as many robots as he usually would, but he sent a robotic copy of himself in his place, then we saw the real one flee empty-handed. And recently, when Eggman sent a whole army to attack a military base holding three emeralds, nothing was taken.
I decided then and there, that Eggman must be up to something big, because all of his recent failures didn't seem like his usual incompetence. So I left and went to find out what Eggman was up to. Normally I wouldn't have thought of all this and had the initiative to rush to Eggman, but I guess I'm different without my idiotic love for that blue-rat. But apparently, I haven't lost my knack for getting captured.
Anyway, here I am waking up in a prison cell inside Eggman's latest piece of real estate, with a bump on my head the size of Sonic's ego. It was one of those power locked cells, and no matter how many times I hit the door with my trusty hammer, I don't even make a dent. So unless the power goes out, I'm stuck here. Besides, I'm not leaving this base until I find out whatever Eggman is up to, and no over-weight handyman or slow-witted speedster, is going to stop me. Now, I remember a thunderstorm was closing in on the base before I got knocked-out. If it hasn't passed over already, there's a small chance the base will have a blackout, and I can breakout of here. If that doesn't happen, I could jump Eggman or one of his robots when I get food or water. Eggman always gives food and water to his captives, even though the food isn't exactly edible. You'd think with his so-called 300 I.Q., he could at least make a half-decent chef robot. Right now it's a waiting game. I just hope it doesn't go into overtime.
? POV:
I suppose this where I come in. You can call me Rouge the Bat, part-time secret agent and treasure hunting extraordinaire. If there is anything I like best, it's jewelry, the bigger the better. I am an albino mobian bat, and quite a knockout if I do say so myself. Unlike Sonic and Eggman, I only go for the Chaos Emeralds for their beauty. Hey, they got their priorities and I got mine. But, that doesn't mean I'm heartless. Should Sonic and his friends get into trouble, I might step in and lend and a hand, or in my case, a foot. What? I didn't get my gorgeous hips and thighs just from puberty alone, I happen to be quite a kick boxer. I use my wings to fly, my hands to steal, so that leaves my legs for defense.
The reason I said I was a part-time secret agent, is because of a little heist I did awhile back. It was a simple heist, at least for me, just the theft of the world's largest diamond. Wasn't a chaos emerald, but it was the next best thing. When word got out, G.U.N. managed to hunt me down and give me an ultimatum. G.U.N., that's short for the Guardian Unit of Nations. Basically, it's an international military organization dedicated to protecting the world from Eggman. Anyway, it was either a life in prison, or I rent out my services as a secret agent every once in awhile. Naturally, I became a G.U.N. agent, and I even got to keep the diamond. So if there's a mission, or Sonic and his friends happen to be in jam, I can help out, especially if there is a Chaos Emerald involved.
Speaking of which, that's partially the reason why I'm here in Eggman's base, undetected of course. That military base Eggman attacked a while ago was a G.U.N. base. So, when the techies managed to find the his base, they sent yours truly to investigate and find out what he's up to. And, while I didn't plan for it, Pinkie's little damsel in distress routine proved to be the perfect diversion for me to sneak in. So, if she's around, I might as well put her to good , the doctor normally has at least one chaos emerald around, so a bonus for little old me.
Ah, here we are, the main power generator. I figure by now Amy's in one of Eggy's power-locked cells. By cutting the power, not only will that kill the lights in the base, but Amy should get free and cause even more trouble. Now a good screw kick. (Crash)(Main power shut Down) Now I just get to the main computer room while Amy and Eggman duke it out. But, so far everything has been a bit too easy, so I better be careful for now.
Third Person POV:
Now we have three members in the game. Amy Rose, who now has opened her cell and now is bashing her way to the truth. Rouge the Bat, who ismaking her way to the computer chamber, seeking the same information, and a possible chaos emerald. And Doctor Eggman, the one with the home field advantage. As Amy and Rouge make their way through the base, the emergency power as well as the alarm comes on and the good doctor now scrambles his forces to recapture his prisoner, and determine the cause for the power shortage.
Meanwhile, within the confines of a hidden chamber, a creature sleeps with a glass tank, floating in a bluish green liquid. The tank is connected to a series of wires and complex devices. When suddenly, all lights and power went out through the lab. A few seconds later a red light flashes over and over again, while a very loud siren blares throughout the room.
The creature within began to twitch, and soon began to stir. It eyes slowly open, revealing deep, hypnotizing, light green eyes. The beast is now fully awake, and tries to move from where he is now standing. A quick bump into the glass, makes him realize he is contained, but a strong right soon shatters his prison, while the liquid floods onto the floor of the chamber. As it emerges, we can now see the beast's form.
It looked like a cross between a hedgehog and a wolf. Five long furry quills ran from the back of its head, another two ran along its shoulder blades. Its chest was rather large and rich with muscle, while its muscular arms were long, with large hands and clawed fingers. While its legs were not as muscular, they were long and despite their slender form, had some muscle as well. Its mouth held large canines that could have been mistaken for a vampire's, but were easily concealed when its mouth was closed. Finally, its form was coated in white long, thick, shaggy, yet smooth fur.
Overall, the beast was both a fearsome, and beautiful sight to behold. Who knows what the presence of this creature, will bring to the chaos unfolding somewhere within the base?
