Actually done two within the week! Wow! Not a brilliant one to be honest but it's more a filler.
Nightmare War
Chapter Four, It is here!
The Tester stumbled forward, opened his mouth as in to speak and collapsed on the ground. He lay still, motionless.
Tails and Sonic ran to the cat and picked him up. "Cosmo!" Tails called "Run to cream's house! Tell her mother we're coming!" Cosmo didn't move. "c'mon" Sonic yelled to her "Quickly!" Cosmo remained still.
"Tails" she said, so quiet it was barley audible. "Tails, that's the tester. He killed you… he tried to kill us all" She still hadn't moved. Cosmo stayed routed to the spot as Tails and Sonic passed her, talking to each other. She wandered lowly after them, not sure weather or not she could believe her eyes.
They bumped into Espio on the way there and he ran ahead to alert Cream's mother. When they got there she had already prepared for their arrival. She had got out her medical supplies and bandages.
"Quickly, get him inside" she ushered Sonic and Tails inside and the pair layed the Tester out on the table. Sonic and Tails stood back as the rabbit set about trying to bring the Tester round.
"This isn't good" tails observed rather obviously "If the Tester has been hurt, that means something VERY dangerous is out there and whatever it was probably followed him here. But what could do such a thing?" he held his chin thoughtfully.
Sonic was about to respond when Knuckles burst in. He was swaying as he ran and had new lumps on his head. "BIG, SCARY THING!!" he squealed, and promptly collapsed. He lay still for a moment and mumbled to himself, something about a squirrel if Sonic heard right.
Sonic groaned and propped Knuckles up in a chair "when aren't they big and scary? We'd better get down there" He jumped on the spot for a while, hyping himself up. "This is gonna rock! C'mon!!"
"Hold on!" Tails called as Sonic dashed of, he ran back quickly "If this is what took out the Tester, we're gonna need the Chaos Emeralds to even stand a chance". Tails thought for a moment. "I'll run and get them seeing as we know where they are. You get down there!"
Sonic didn't even bother replying, he just ran off so quickly he left a blue streak behind him and blew books from their shelves. Tails apologised on Sonic's behalf and dashed off to get to the Emeralds. He liked to formulate plan at times like this but he had no idea what he would find when he returned, so he would just have to improvise.
Tails ran back to his workshop and grabbed the 5 Emeralds he had there. Hopefully Sonic hadn't dropped his one and the one in the X-Tornado would still be there. Tails was about to dash from the workshop when he had an idea. He had recently repaired the original Tornado. It would be far quicker to take that then to run. He jumped into the pilot seat and started up the engine.
"Tails!" Tails heard a voice call, he turned in his seat and saw Cosmo running towards the plane. She jumped into the passenger set and strapped herself in. "Don't even think about telling me to stay behind" he said defiantly "I'm not letting you get yourself hurt by whatever is down there" she smiled at Tails and thee fox couldn't help but smile back at her.
When the Tornado arrived where Knuckles had seen the monster, Tails and Cosmo could see two figures standing, puzzled, on the ground below. The first was Sonic and the second was Shadow. It seemed the landings hadn't gone unnoticed. Tails landed the plane and he and Cosmo joined the hedgehogs.
Shadow answered their questions before they asked it. "We don't know where it is" he admitted. "For all we know = oh THERE it is!"
The salivating creature had jut shown up and it didn't do much for the eyes. It almost staggered towards the friends.
Sonic shrugged "Is that it? Doesn't look tough to me" He positioned himself to leap "watch this!" he lunged towards the waiting monster, spinning in his signature spindash. The monster simply stood and waited…
Nobody saw what happened next, it was so quick. One moment Sonic was flying at the monster, the next h was lying on his back in the dirt twenty feet away. He propped himself up on his elbows, sratched his head and fainted. It was quite an odd sight.
"Did he really think it would be that easy?" Everyone spun round to see the Tester advancing on them, he stood next to Shadow and eyed Soni's form with contempt.
"Well, you're up then?" said Shadow simply, "good. Seems I'm going to need you on this one" He turned to Tails and Cosmo. "Stand back, I don't think you can help here, you'll just get in the way… are those the Chaos Emeralds?" Tail nodded "good". Shadow took them from Tails an turned back to the cat. "ready?"he asked.
You know the drill by now. I''ll be back son with something a bit better! Later!
