3rd Person:
Sonic, was reading a novel on a hammock. He was enjoying his free day. No fan girls, no Eggman, no blackmail by Shadow, just him and some nice literature. Then a wolf, rabbit, hedgehog, and fat cat landed on him. Good bye free day. K-9 pulled out Sonic's limp blue body from under him and slapped Sonic to wake him up.
"Huh?" Sonic sleeply blinked and K-9 slapped him again, harder.
"Your turn, Blue Boy."
"But-"
"I'll rip yours off if you don't go and get a Chaos Emerald this instant."
"But-"
"BUT NOTHING," K-9 roared. "YOU'RE GOING!" The wolf used him strength and threw the hedgehog as if he was a Christmas ornament, sending flying off to crash and shatter somewhere. Ouch.
Plasma's POV:
Sonic's lucky he landed in my airship. It's a five-seater, real leather stuffed with-
Tulip's POV:
Hello? Vegetarian here!
Plasma's POV:
Sorry.
Solar's POV:
You eat meat! How are you a vegetarian?
3rd Person:
Tulip was about to hit Solar over the head with her staff, but Sonic was used as a human shield. Sonic retaliated and the three of them began to fight in loudly and painfully. Unfortunately for them, all they managed to do was to break Shadow's iPod while he was listening to it. Never break Shadow's iPod. He was about to unleash a Chaos Javelin (a Chaos Spear 30 feet long and 5 feet in diameter) on Sonic and Solar, who were preparing a Sonic Wind and Dragon de Sol respectively, but Plasma grabbed all of their wrists. (He grabbed Sonic and Shadow's with his hands, Solar's with his tail.)
"You guys came to pick up a Chaos Emerald somewhere in/under London, and it should stay that way. You were planned to get it without any casualties. I will not have anyone or thing ruin a plan! GET IT?!" The cat's gray fur cackled dangerously with electricity. The hedgehogs shook their head as if their lives depended on it. Some armadillo died because he screwed up Plasma's plan. "Good." Plasma sat down and the electricity disappeared as if it was never there.
The four team members stepped of the plane and onto rainy ol' London. As usual, it was raining; except for around Solar, who madea patch of sunlight around him. The ebony-angsty hedgehog punched the pure black (a color that has 90% more black!?) one out of the patch, but it moved with him. Sonic groaned in unison with Solar. "I hate England/Shadow!"
Sonic's POV:
I hate England, it's wet. 25/7-
Shadow's POV:
There are 24 hours in a day, dunce.
Sonic's POV:
I said 25 to emphasize that it rains a lot.
Solar's POV:
Impressive.
Sonic's POV:
Anyway, back to my narration. So we were walking through Enland, without coats, umbrellas, or water shields. I wish we could look for the emerald in Iceland, no that isn't ice...y. Anywhere else in Europe would be fine. On the border of Scotland and England, it doesn't rain on the other side. It's wierd, but fun to push bagpipers in to England.
3rd Person:
Big Ben chimed loudly to the rainy, yet not that gloomy, city that it was 5 o'clock. Sonic stomach rumbled, it was dinner-
Luna's POV:
IN ENGLAND, DINNER IS LUNCH AND SUPPER IS DINNER! GET IT RIGHT!
3rd Person:
Sonic stomach rumbled, it was supper time. Happy? The azure hedgehog's ears pricked up as his chili dog sensor found a chili dog stand ten kilo- ten kilo-. Wait, this is the metric system, one kilometer is 5/8 meyels (have to spell it wrong), so ten meyels is 16 kilometers! Anyway, he found a hotdog stand 16 kilometers away and ran to it at 160 kmph meaning he'd get there in a minute. Shadow cursed the hungry hedgehog and ran after him. Solar shrugged at ran past the other two, Tulip slowly (relative to S, S, and S's speeds, fast enough for the "speed boost" - see Sonic Rush) ran after them. Boys.
Solar skidded to a halt just centimeters in front of the bronze goat's hot dog stand, in other words, Solar ran at top speed for 1 second to get ahead, and braked for 58. Sonic and Shadow stopped on the dime behind him and a second later Tulip, who was slightly out of breath. Solar looked behind him ruefully. He would high-five Tulip, maybe a peck on the cheek, but his dad said 'no' and he always knew best. When Solar tried to prove him wrong, the laws of nature changed.
"One foot long chili dog please!" The goat set up a one-meter wide umbrella and pulled out a meter long chili dog. Sonic squealed and gave the food vendor a twenty.
"You might want an umbrella or two for your group." Solar disappeared and reappeared with 4 umbrellas. Sonic was about to shallow the huge hot dog, but Shadow pulled out a small knife and cut the hog dog into 3 smaller pieces, he and Solar each took a piece. Tulip ate Shadow's piece.
"That was unlady-like."
"Screw that, you didn't share." Tulip said obstinately. Shadow pulled out a gun in anger and a rather loud report sounded through the river-side town. "That wasn't you was it, Shadow?"
"No, it wasn't."
"Someone is shooting at us aren't they?"
"Yep." The team of hedgehog turned slowly to the right and saw a small squad of G.U.N. troops with automatic pistols.
"You four are under arrest!"
"For what." Sonic said defiantly.
"For doing stuff your not supposed to!" Solar ran up to the leader of the squad, which looked like he teleported, and poked him in the eyes. As he howled in pain, Solar ran through the streets, at the speed of light. Ten seconds after he ran his voice said:
"RUN!" The remaining hedgehogs did just that.
Sonic's POV:
Run, that was all that was on my mind. G.U.N. wants us dead again so we have to avoid them, again. Who knows what Shadow did? But that doesn't matter now, It's a matter of life or death, run- Then I crashed into Solar, who was running as fast as I do for once.
"Ow." Blood dripped from my nose and stained my gloves.
"Sorry, dude."
The only people who are going to be sorry are us if those G.U.N. guys catch us." Speaking of, which ten soldiers came out and began to shoot at us. I jumped into a ball and Solar 'teleported' away. You know, going at the speed of light should illegal. After bouncing on the soldiers' heads and out of harms way, I landed behind them. I put my hands together and a ball of blue wind formed between them. "SONIC WIND!" I swung my hands in every direction and the wind pushed the soldiers out of my way. Next, I ran through some puddles, drenching the already wet soldiers.
"Catch ya later!" I bet Solar can't do anything like that!
"DRAGON DE SOL!" You know what...
Solar's POV:
You know, I used to hate mechs. They're big, mean, and they shoot at you endlessly. Well after fighting five of them, I realized their not that bad. Dragons can incinerate them and they make great ashes! Dragons of solar energy that is. Anyway, I ran into-literally ran into- Shadow who finished spearing several mechs with his Chaos Spears, duh.
"You idiot! Stop crashing into stuff!"
"Wow, not a swear in that sentence. You're been working on that." The ebony hedgehog bowed deeply.
"Thank you." He stood up again and looked around. "Hey where's your girlfriend?" A tank that with a vine around it flew through the air. Tulip calmly walked to us, albeit soaked from the pouring rain. I smiled and mentally slapped myself on the forehead. Break up with her. "I'm on your bad side aren't I?" Shadow asked. A fist shaped vine punched him.
"You could say that." Tulip pulled out a small cyan crystal. It pulsed with energy, Shadow and I felt it.
"That's not a Chaos Emerald..." Shadow said.
"...yet it has some sort of energy pulsing from it." I finished. Tulip tossed it upward and caught it.
"I took it from a soldier. They had a cache of them." Shadow closed his eyes and looked down.
"The Chaos Emerald is below us. We need Sonic here fa-" Sonic ran to us on cue. He also had a crystal in his hand.
"I found the-"
"It ain't." Tulip threw the crystal up and began to "dig' with her staff.
"What are you waiting for? Dig!" I was going to but the crystal came down and shattered. It immediately stopped raining and the sun came out. How didn't I figure it out!
"It's solar energy!" Everyone turned to me. "It's the same stuff that I manipulate-you kno, Fist de Sol, Dragon de Sol? It's not Chaos energy, but it's still powerful stuff."
"Whatever," Shadow scoffed. "Let's just get that emerald." Shadow pulled out Knuckles's Shovel Claws and dug into the ground until there was a hole leading into the earth. When we couldn't see him, a voice called out: "Coming or not?" We all jumped down the hole-wait, why did Shadow have Knuckles's claws?
3rd Person:
The four hedgehogs landed in a cyan colored temple, complete with faint pale-blue lights. The walls were made of three thousand year old blue coral, yet it looked like it was still alive and healthy. The floor was covered in a brillant blue and gold mosaic dispicting some sort of ancient utopia. However, this coral temple and all in it wasn't well illuminated as the light was rather pale so nothing could be seem further than five meters away. Sonic looked down and saw a nearby stairway leading, down. He took a deeeeeeep breath, and spat in its direction. His siliva flew, then fell several hundred meters before what sounded like a splat was heard.
"That ruined the floor." Tulip stated before looking down the stairs. "Well, here we go." Tulip pulled out her wooden staff and used as walking stick, and began to walk down the stairs. "1000000 bottles of beer on the wall, 1000000 bottles of beer! Take one down, pass it around, 999999 bottles of beer on the wall!"
After standing around for a few minutes, Solar backed up several paces and scratched a foot on the ground, just like a bull would before charging. Shadow grinned inwardly and stuck out his foot in Solar's line of running. When Solar shot forward, he tripped and fell down the stairs.
"That's gonna hurt tomorrow." Sonic turned to his darker counterpart.
"Wanna Chaos Control down?"
"And see him fall? Duh!" Shadow focused his Chaos energy to bend space. "Chaos Control!" Shadow and Sonic disappeared in a flash of red light.
Tulip stepped on the last step of the stairwell. "No bottles of beer on the wall!" With that, Solar tumbled into his purple furred girlfriend and landed on top of her. They both blushed madly.
"Well this is awkward." A flash of red light came and Shadow and Sonic were there to see Solar on top of Tulip.
"Well, well, well. We leave for 10 minutes and look what happens?" Shadow shook his head at Solar, who was stammering to come up with a defence. "If it wasn't for us, who knows? And Solar, I thought you believed in abstinence. Tisk, tisk." Solar ran to a nearby pillar and began to slam his head into it repeatedly.
"I'm not a pervert, I'm not a pervert, I'm not a pervert..." Tulip got up, off the ground and slapped Shadow. He glared at her, his blood red eyes piercing her calm blue ones.
"Look what you did, Shadow!" Tulip said pointing to Solar. Sonic walked up to his interdementional counterpart and slapped him so he would stop.
"Instead of fighting among ourselves, we should find a certain emerald...." Tulip hesitantly nodded. Shadow looked away. "Good." Sonic ran down a dark corridor. Solar shrugged and 'teleported' after him. Shadow actually teleported away, leaving Tulip alone in the ancient maze of a temple. Yay. Tulip walked down the path following the mural on the floor. It looks like this place was some sort of haven that was built in present day U.K.Tulip walked down the path, following the story depicted by the pictures. Apparently, people became greedy for the crystals that they used to harvest the sun's energy. Tulip 'read' the symbols on a nearby gold plaque, imagining what they said.
"'A war broke out, the impure blood and tears of loss shed mingled with city's water and ultimately poisoned the crystals and the solar energy contained was corrupted; repelling the sun's light and bringing a seemingly endless rain. We realized what we brought upon ourselves buried the remaining crystals, hoping to get rid of the corrupt energy. Unfortunately, it didn't work. We hope people of future generations can forgive us and not repeat our mistakes.'" Tulip tripped on another plaque, with the translation of the symbols. Wow, it's what I said! Tulip found a blood red jewel mottled with clear and black specks along with the plaque. Tulip realized what G.U.N. was trying to do, and realized that G.U.N must be stopped. She ran off in the direction the story continued with the plaque and crystal in hand.
Shadow, Sonic, and Solar all found the room that held the Chaos Emerald. Unfortunately, it also held thousands of sun crystals, which looked exactly like the emerald. "This sucks." Shadow closed his eyes trying to home in on the Chaos energy, but the vast amounts of solar energy made it hard to focus. "We'll need a sonar or something to find the emerald." (Guess what two names make up Sonar? Sequel to the sequel...?) Tulip ran into the room with the corrupt crystal and the plaque.
"Solar, destroy the temple and every crystal in it. NOW!" Solar raised an eyebrow. Before Tulip could explain, several G.U.N. mech broke through the roof of the chamber with loud shattering sounds.
"Well, isn't it the group that should hold their namesake up to their heads?" Shadow jeered. A mech with drab green and gold accents walked up to Shadow, and kicked him across the room. The ebony hedgehog crashed into the wall, breaking several crystals along the way. Shadow spat blood onto a crystal, and it became slightly stained. Shadow growled and jumped off the wall and into a mech, knocking it over. Shadow ripped the soldier out of the cockpit and threw him into a switch. When the lad's face collided with the brick, it pushed in and a large rumbling ratteled the temple.
A large hole opened up in the center of the room and what floated above it was no other than the Chaos Emerald. "Thanks for crushing your face agianst the wall!"
"You're so violent." Solar looked over the edge.
"Guys, look." A large gold and blue dragon pulled its head out of the the hole. Its crystalline blue eyes were filled with energy...and hate. Solar, Sonic, Shadow, and Tulip all poised for battle. Unfortunately, the G.U.N. soldiers walked their mechs in front of the heroes.
"Sorry, you aren't authorized." Tulip's eyes blue eyes sparked with a sudden anger.
"You just want to steal the power the crystals possess! A whole civilization fell into oblivion because they abuse the crystals' power! The crystals were made to improve life, not warfare! I think-" A tranquilizer dart from a soldier put her to sleep.
"Now, men...MOVE, MOVE, MOVE!" The mech charged slowly at the dragon. When the squadron reached the edge of the pit, they pulled out various weapons and fired at the dragon. It roared and breathed golden flames onto the mechs, incinerating them and their pliots. But one pliot was a coward, and he ejected hemself out of the temple as if his life depended on it. It did.
"I think we should try now," Sonic said sheepishly. S and S nodded. Solar ran around the room to gain momentum, then his hand glowed gold and it left an orange trail of energy. He jumped into the pit, where rest of the dragon's body would be, and rolled to keep his precious momentum. "Fist de-" The dragon's eyes glew red and Solar's strength was sapped from him. "I'm done." The onyx hedgehog jumped from wall to wall, hoping to get out unscathed. Unfortunately, spikes around the beast's neck shot out to impale him; one managed to scratch him as he jumped out. "Ugh, it can drain solar energy as well as use it."
"Then it's time for CHAOS!" Shadow Chaos Controled on top of the dragon's head. It shook violently to send him flying off, Shadow held on and tried steady his aim at the spot between its eyes. When he finally got it: "CHAOS SPEAR!" Multiple spears of chaos energy shot at the beast's eyes and skull. It just opened its mouth, and swallowed them whole. Sonic jumped at the guardian, a large ball of blue wind between his hands. "SONIC HURRICANE!" Winds as strong as those found in a hurricane slashed at the creature, battering it untill it fell back into its hole, defeated.
"Why do you get the kill?" Shadow asked.
"Shut up and get the emerald that's been floating there the entire time." Shadow and Solar looked behide them and sure enough, there it was. Shadow jumped across the pit and caught the emerald.
"Guys, Tulip was right; we need to destroy this place."
"Sure, maybe it will finally stop raining."
"That's typical of you to say, Sonic."
"Sonic," Solar commanded, "get Tulip out of here." Sonic saluted, picked up the still-sleeping purple hedgehog and ran out of the temple.
"Shadow, absorb as much corrupt energy as you can; I'll absorb solar energy. We need to drain every crystal in here of the energy it contains."
"Whatever." The two black hedgehogs focused on assilmilating as much power as they could hold. Red and cyan particles of energy came and landed on their body, seeping in on contact. "How much left?"
"About 63%"
"Dang it." Shadow opened his eyes and the flow of corrupt energy burst open, as if a dam of sorts was shattered. He buckled slightly, the sudden burst of energy hurt slightly.
"Slow down, your body can't absorb energy that quickly!"
"You're too slow."
"Heh," Solar opened his eyes as well and the flow of solar energy increased exponitiously.
"Now...how...much...left...?" The amount of energy was getting to them.
"About...23...percent....Shadow...spread...the...energy."
"What's...that...supposed...to...mean...?" Cyan markings appeared all over Solar's body, from his pupilless, cyan eyes, to the crest on his head, his arms, legs, and body.
"You're containing all the power in your chest and stomach, spread it." Pale red markings appeared on Shadow, spouting from his chest to the rest of his body. His pupilless, already-red eyes shone with vitality.
"Ah, much better. Now how much left?"
"None! Now we have to get rid of this place."
"CHAOS BLAST!"
"DRAGON DE SOL!"
Sonic looked at the area the temple was. Suddenly, cyan waves of energy coursed through the ground; crumbling the temple into ruins. Then a large blast of red Chaos/corrupt energy oblitrated the remains. Shadow and Solar appeared with a flash of red light.
"Aw, the power's gone."
"Shadow, it was a one-shot thing."
"Darn."
"Hey, you haven't swore this whole chapter!"
"Yay." Shadow walked away, and stubbed his toe on a rock.
"AW ****! THAT ******* HURT! THIS ROCK SUCKS **** WITH A LOAD OF ****** IN ***** ****** ******** ********* ******* SOUP **************************************************************************."
"That was short lived."
Elsewhere:
The cowardly soldier was seated in a military base, in front of his superior. He could be in serious troble: decharge, ridicule or worse.
"You're the last of your squadron. Our reports tell us that they all were killed because of some dragon."
"Yeah!"
"And you survived how?"
"..."
"COWARD!"
"No, those hedgehogs killed them! I survived by luck!"
"Hmm, I kind of liked the black one. Anyway, those miscreants must be disposed!"
This isn't my best chapter, but my writing's better. Please R,R,R, and R: Rest, Relax, Read and Review!
