Why are people still reading this? I thought this this was abandoned!

But NOOOOO, you just HAVE to keep reading this for whatever reason, because I saw the hits keep going up, and I thought, FUCK! People still want to read this..

So yeah, FINALY, here's the next chapter... but the jokes on you... this chapter has been online for months at I just never got around to putting it here!

Vile, Maverick Hunter X style: HAHAHAHAHA!

Even though it's been awhile, I'll respond to the reviews I got way back when.

Stupidfic: Yes, it is original, takes quite a bit of thought to be able to blend Sonic and Halo, thank you.

Turbotails23: No, ROB is mine, he's an android (As you'll see here), so don't feel left out, you're just as confused as anyone.

Skittles The Sugar Fairy: Thank you, I'm glad this thing is liked. No, it's not based off any particular verse, just whatever line matches the chapter.

Dudermancer: FUCK YOU MAN! DAMN YOU TO HELL! I HATE THE FUN TIMES WE HAVE! I HATE THAT I CAN'T PULL MYSELF AWAY FROM YOUR INTOXICATING ACTIVITIES OF DOING NOTHING INPARTICULAR FOR HOURS ON END! DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU! DAAAAAMMMMMNNNN YOOOOOUUUUU!!!... Call me.

Read the chapter, I hope you like it... (This was made before G.U.N.'s Requiem, so the hospital scene was actually based off this, so you can't blame me if you've seen this before... okay you can, but don't!)



Uhg… what hit me?

Damn… my head hurts…

What happened?

Let's see… oh… right…

Stupid robot… when the hell'd Robotnick get so good?

Wait… how did I get here?

Better question… where is here?

"It looks like he'd regaining consciousness"

Who?

"He's coming to a lot faster then I anticipated"

Me?

"Sonic…?"

Tails…?

Alright, that's it, where am I, and why can't I see?

oh… right


Sonic opened his eyes…

He had to blink a few times to clear his vision, but upon doing so, he noticed several things. The first of which being that he was in a hospital room, the white walls and floor, coupled with the medical equipment and the overall… medical, look of the room… tipped him off immediately.

The second thing was that he was covered in bandages, his head was encased in tight white gauze, layers upon layers of bandages covered his dome, they had even managed to get it around his quills somehow…

The third thing that he became aware of was the people in the room with him, to be precise, there were two others present. He didn't even have to think about the first one, the small orange fox was instantly recognized as-

"Sonic!" Tails shouted, he dashed over to the bedridden hedgehog and embraced him vigorously.Sonic's eyes shot open, his body screamed in pain, but all he let out was a hiss and a wince. Tails noticed this right away, "Oh! I'm sorry!" He apologized, jumping off the hedgehog in a flash, "I didn't mean to, I was just-"

"It's alright..." Sonic grunted, trying to coax away the pain, "Glad to see you too little guy" He said as he brought up him aching hand and rubbed the fox's head. The boy giggled as the other's rubbing moved towards his ears, he was always ticklish there. Sonic grinned, it was always nice to see the child in Tails, rather then the genies he always strives to be.

"Ahem"

Sonic ceased his motions and looked up, finally noticing the second person present. He was an owl, obviously older then him. Tall and covered in brown feathers, his was a figure that spoke of authority. Sonic noticed several things abut him, namely that he wore glasses, he wore a long white lab coat, and had a tag that read, Remius, M.D., pinned to his chest. The owl cleared his throat once more before speaking.

"Welcome back Sonic, for awhile there, I wasn't sure if you would be waking up" Remius said, his face still showing bits of surprise.

"Hey, what can I say? It takes more then a hyped up bucket of bolts to do me in" Sonic replied, sitting up strait... or as much so as he could. Tails hoped up on the bed, sitting next to Sonic.

"Hmm, well that's good to know" The owl commented as he shifted his gaze to a window. Darkness filled the sky, it was obviously late. But despite the darkness, the land was lit up, rows and rows of lights, massive buildings that tower over everything stretched on for as long as the eye could see.

They were in Genesis, the largest and most prosperous city in the world. Reaching for over 300 kilometers, it's size is matched only by it's capacity. The city holds over One Hundred Million people, roughly 1/10th of the world's population. Most of the world's best and brightest reside there, and the city's technology stands above the rest in this world.

Genesis is truly a place to behold...

The owl sighed as he looked out, there's nothing like living in the largest city in the world to make you feel like an individual.

"You really had us worried there, you were incredibly unstable. I'm surprised you've come out of it like you did" The doctor admitted. His gaze passed down to the streets below, faintly in the night, faded silhouettes stood near the entrance to the hospital. "They've been there all day... it's becoming a hazard..."

Sonic quirked an eyebrow, "All day?" He asked, "Just long have I been here?" He asked doctor.

"You were brought in here yesterday morning" Remius replied, "You've been put for almost two days"

"Two days?" Sonic repeated, "Wow... that's a bummer..." He said as he shifted incomparably.

"Sonic, what exactly happened to you out there?" The doctor asked, "It's not everyday the world's greatest hero is brought into the emergency room"

Sonic shifted incomparably, he'd rather not have to go over that...

"Robotnick built a new kind of robot, one that was alot stronger then the other's he's made" Sonic explained, "Me and Tails went over there when he saw it on his radar thing, he told me that it was tougher then anything Robotnick's ever sent after us"

Sonic paused, but Tails cut in, "Sonic beat him" he said slowly.

"Yeah" Sonic said, "Wasn't easy, but I did it".

There was a still silence as Sonic remembered the fight, "Yeah… I guess he has learned something after all this time…" He replied, pushing his worse memories of the battle aside, "But hey, it's been destroyed, we don't have to worry about it anymore" Sonic said, letting out a sigh of relief.

Tails turned away.

The owl gazed back out the window, taking notice of the group of people outside the hospital.

"People've been trying to get information on you, the reporters have been hounding the place all day, it's annoying the staff" The owl said, shaking his head and turning back to the two once more.

Sonic sat up, ignoring the pain, and asked the doctor, "So… when do you think I'm gonna get out of here?"

Now the owl frowned, "You're pretty messed up, you suffered a concussion, several broken ribs, not to mention the many minor wounds" He said "You'll be in here for awhile"

Tails's eyes widened, and despite himself, he made a small gasp.

Sonic looked over at him, "Something the matter?"

Tails shuffled around, "Well… it's just that…"

He was cut off though, the owl interrupted, "Pardon me, but would you like to make an official statement on what happened? There are reports from the citizens of Green Hill Zone, but people want your side of the story"

Sonic glanced over at him, "Yeah, sure, later" before turning back to Tails, "So what where you saying?"

The owl scuffed before walking to the door, "I'll tell them, maybe that'll get them off our back for awhile" he said as left.

There was another pause, "You've been out of it for over a day… it's the 18th…" Tails said, avoiding looking at the blue one.

"Ouch…" Sonic said, looking out the open window.

Sonic turned to the fox again, "Alright, what's up? You're dodging something" he said, eying him quizzically.

"No I'm not…" he said, looking at the hedgehog… but after a moment, "Okay… so I am…"

Tails gulped, he REALLY didn't want to tell him this… he didn't want to tell it to himself… but it had to be said.

"Sonic… it's about Robotnick…"

Sonic went rigid, "What is it?"

"After I brought you here, I…" He started, stopping nervously…

"What?" the blue one asked.

After a nervous pause, he said it, "I… I got a new reading…"

Sonic went pale, no… it couldn't be… "What kind of reading…?"

There was a silence… "The same one… but more…"

Sonic felt as if his heart could stop… more…?

"…How… how many more…?"

The silence lasted minutes, every second straining him more and more, "How many more?" Sonic asked again.

"…Lots…" Tails replied...

There was no answer, Sonic simply stared off into space…

"Hundreds…" Tails finished, his voice no more than a whisper, but it was heard… and registered…

Like before, there was no answer from Sonic… he just slowly lied down in there bed, staring up at the ceiling…

They stayed there in silence for what seemed like forever, until the injured one slowly spoke, "Where?"

"All around the place… there's no real concentration of them… they're spread out" Tails replied, bringing his wrist up and looking at the black watch-like device, then putting it back down.

"I've… I've also picked up what looks like several large installations…" He said, his eyes drifting off.

Sonic looked over at him, "Where'd they come from?"

Tails shrugged, "Underground I suppose, they just kind of appeared there… I have no idea what they're for though"

Sonic tried to stand up, but was stopped before he could even swing his feet off the bed, he couldn't do it… he was screwed up…

Tails looked over at him… he knew what he had to do…

"Don't worry" The cub said, lightly placing a hand on his brother's chest, pushing him back down into the bed, "I'll handle it…"

Sonic's eyes widened, "No way, you can't take those things on… we barley could handle ONE! You can't stop hundreds…" He said, his voice heightening as he said it.

Tails frowned, he knew he couldn't do it, but he had to do SOMETHING… there was something that he hadn't told Sonic, something bad…

"Sonic… I need to do something… quickly… if I don't… something terrible will happen…" The child said, locking eyes with the blue male.

Sonic quirked an eyebrow, "What? What could be worse then hundreds of those… those THINGS out there?"

The boy went silent again, he should tell him… he'd never been wrong before…

He lifted his hand from the other's chest, and rubbed his arm.

"When… when I brought you in yesterday… I fell asleep… and I had a dream…"

Sonic stayed silent, this had happened before…

"It… wasn't good…" Tails said, sighing and closing his eyes…


Fire… fire everywhere… the city was burning…

People lay in the streets, still and lifeless…

Crimson flowed through the streets… the sky burned with a fiery hate…

One after the other, tall figures marched though the city, crushing everything beneath their metal boots.

Powerful creatures filled the city, screams of the torment ripped through the air, and the sounds of gunshots silenced them, one by one.

The head of a dead man was crushed underneath a metal foot, covering it in an explosion of gore.

A menacing crackle emerged from the sounds of death, one with a powerful electronic backdrop to it's dark tone.

It increased in volume, and slowly, through the haze of smoke and fire, a lone figure stood.

It's black silhouette showed through the fire, a long dark cape swayed with the tides of the smoke.

It stood in the flame, the haunting laugh never ceasing as more dark figures emerged from the flame, marching into the city.

Gunshots rang out, and shadows fell to the ground…


"And it ends there…" The child said, finishing his story.

The injured one lay there in silence… the kid has had these kind of dreams before… one's more like visions then dreams.

"Well… that's not good" Sonic said simply, when Tails had these kinds of dreams, they always came true…

He's always seemed to have them, he had them the whole time they where fighting off Robotnick during his attempts to concur Mobius.

They usually where good, varying between minor things, like fixing the Tornado after it had crashed, to major things like the final victory over Robotnick on Angel Island. He never knew how or why he had that ability… he just did, and he had always enjoyed it… until now…

"Maybe I could be wrong… I mean, I can't ALWAYS be right…" The cub said, hanging his head down low.

Sonic sat up and pulled the upset child into an embrace, holding him as tight as he could.

"Don't worry… it'll be alright…" He said as he rocked the child, who was now beginning to burst into tears, back and forth in his arms.

"It'll all be alright…"


"Just WHAT the hell happened out there?!"

Two heavy hands slammed down on a metal desk as the question was bellowed.

A lone figure sat at a steel desk, encased in a steel room, an office if anything.

"It's quite simply, he lost" a deep voice replied, the dark voice was accompanied by an electronic backdrop.

Sitting in a steel chair was a gunmetal figure, encased in metal, he sat there, almost inattentive to the raging man before him.

A large man dressed in a red shirt, with long sleek black pants stood before the robotic figure, hands on the desk and barley contained anger on his face.

The man's left ear was covered in white gauze, bandaged to prevent the bleeding.

"Your android LOST! It was destroyed, just like everything else!" The man raged, "You said that it would destroy that rodent!"

The grey figure just sat and stared at him, before shaking his head slowly, "Ivo, I told you that I EXSPECTED him to be able to destroy Sonic, I didn't give any guarantee" He said in a smooth, slick voice.

"But that machine was the most advanced combat robot I've ever seen, how could it lose?" The man asked.

"I admit, I underestimated the creature, that was my mistake" The metal one said, leaning back in the chair.

"I also didn't expect the presence of an Ancient… that complicates things…"

"The fox? What's so special about him? He's extremely intelligence, but I don't see how that would complicate things even more then they already are" The man said, crossing his arms.

The android sighed, "That fox…" he started, sitting up fully in the chair, "Is quite possibly the biggest threat that I've ever come across…"
"I have faced many things… and until now, I thought I knew exactly what I had to worry about…" The machine stood up, and walked to the far side of the room.

He sighed, "But… I was told of the twin tails… I should have known… thankfully, he isn't fully devolved… perhaps if I go strait for him, I can nip this problem in the bud…"

The room was littered with assorted things, from spare parts for machines, to weaponry and files. The gunmetal machine picked up a small device, a glowing tube with indications written across it.

"The wheels have begun to turn, things beyond you are beginning to unfold…" He said, looking the device over.

"The plan must be set into motion… I'm afraid to say that I'm working with a time limit here… I don't have much time to get what I need done…" The machine's hand pressed against the top of the tube, flipping it open, revealing a small port He lifted his other hand up, and from a fingertip emerged a long jagged plug, which he inserted into the tube. It flashed colors, red, green, yellow, orange, purple, and blue… before finally settling on red.

The android removed his finger from the slot, the plug receding back into his hand. He turned back to the desk, sitting in the chair and pressing something under it. Part of the desk slid open, and a computer came out of it. His hands darted across the keyboard, and in seconds, a small plug emerged from the computer's side. He brought the tube up to it, and pushed it in with a click.

Words upon words scrolled across the screen, until a box saying 'Confirmed' appeared, and upon doing so, the entire room shook. The android grinned, leaning back in his chair and looking up at the ceiling…

"ROB… what did you just do?" Ivo asked.

The grey android's grinned turned wicked, light suddenly seemed to reflect off his metal surface, and he stood He looked at the human before him, they stood roughly the same height, six foot two, but that was where the similarities ended.

The machine's body was encased in layers upon layers of Titanium-A, the strongest known metal in the universe. What looks like additional parts of armor covered him, his chest, arms, thighs, legs and feel where all armored even more then the rest of him His glowing red eyes cast a look of sin upon the doctor…

"I'm killing this world…"


"Nya-nya!" a child yelled, running deeper into the forest. "You'll never catch me!" The small rabbit announced, dashing along. He was followed by another small rabbit, the two ran through the forest, one chasing the other. The leading rabbit closed his eyes and laughed, NO WAY was he going to catch him!

The next thing he knew though, he was flat on the ground with a large bump on his head. "Owowowowow" He cried, rubbing his head before looking up and gawking.

The other rabbit burst through the leaves, "HA! I…I…I…" He trailed off, staring at what stood before them. A large rusty orange machine towered above them, red eyes glaring at the pair.

"…H-Hello…?" the downed rabbit said, his voice breaking.

BANG, BANG


Master Chief Petty Officer Shadow, REAPER-117, REAPER Personal Logs.

November 19th, 2554.

Two days… two days until we have to face ROB once again… two days until my team and I stare death strait in the face… two days until we return home…

Two days…

We where given every bit of information there was about Mobius… everything from the people, to the vegetation. Maria was right… this is an ideal tactical location… the planet itself could easily be terraformed into a fortress…

Maria… she seems more on edge then she usually is, even before a fight… but I suppose I understand her worry, hundreds of androids have been activated, couple that with the presence of factories, along with the many bases and installations that have appeared… it doesn't look good.

But regardless, we can not let ROB have this planet, we will fight him and his armies tooth and nail. I've gone over Jaggi's plans, we have a lot of information on this place, so they where able to form a formidable plan of attack. The other REAPERS won't reach planet side with me, they'll drop in from other locations, I'll be going with the main Marine landing force.

Anderson's squad is going in from here as well, for that I am grateful… if I can't go in with my team, I'd rather go in with them… I know what they can do...

END


... There... I did it... I FUCKING DID IT, I UPDATED THE DAMN THING, HAPPY NOW!?!?

Sigh Alright... and I know what you're thinking, and no, it will not take 5 months for another chapter, I've decided to work on this again, I think I might have screwed myself over with G.U.N.'s Requiem, I find that it might have been better as a stand alone kinda thing... but ah well, I'll just throw that on hold as well.

I think I already have a (Mostly)completed chapter 5 somewhere around here, but I dunno what I did with it/if I'll even use it, but either way, an update shouldn't be TO far off...

You've waited months, and now it's here, so please, do yourself (And Me) and favor and review... please... do it for the children... (Well... not those rabbits, those little guys were gonna die anyway, but do it for all the other children that could perish if you don't review!)

Later!
