Welcome back! Like I said at the start of part 1, this chapter will be just as large, if not BIGGER than the previous one. And I've got a surprise for everyone (or everypony). I have chosen to add a FORTH OC to the adventure. However, I will not disclose ANY information about them, NOT EVEN THE CREATOR of said character will know if their OC has been chosen. So any questions about who it is will NOT be answered or replied to. Even if you ask via private messaging, you will not get an answer. Sorry for sounding so harsh, but what's a surprise if you know about it? Off topic: originally, I thought about making a Sonic and MLP fan fiction revolving around the 'Rainbow Factory' story, but I never got around to it. If you want to see it happen, let me know in the reviews. Just don't spam requests. It gets messy otherwise. If enough people want it, I'll make it! Now with that out of the way, enjoy.

"So pure Chaos energy plus fire equals…" Cosmic finished. Hyper nodded as he walked beside the two Elemental Masters, while spinning a literal ring of fire around his index finger. "Chaos is stronger than natural in the fact that it can control nature. I was somewhat 'lucky' to have obtained these powers." He explained. "So, why did Eggman want you anyway?" Galactic quickly became hesitant and didn't want to reply, as if something terrible was involved.

"This was the first time that anyone wanted my sister for their own selfish desires. Galactic is what people call a 'Vocaloid' which they are famous for their singing." Cosmic began, "she can use her voice to calm people, but this 'Eggman' you speak of wanted her singing for an evil purpose. He forced her to sing to animals as they were placed inside of robots!" Hyper's anger grew at the mention of these terrible things, so much that the ring dispersed and his fist started to generate a blood like flame around it. "Is it normal for a blood like flame to encase your fist?" Cosmic asked.

Hyper looked at his right hand, but reacted in a calm manner. "Just a sec." he said. Hyper walked up to a nearby tree and punched it with intense amounts of force. The tree was surprising unaffected, but had a bloody fist printed on it, while the fire surrounding Hyper's fist became a bright and healthy flame. "Sorry about that. Along with my ability to control fire, I am forced to live with a rare virus that only I can get. If I become angered, my blood becomes corrupt, as does my body and mind. I don't know what would happen if I am corrupted, but I know that banishing the impure blood keeps me sane." Hyper said.

"So punching trees purifies your blood?" Galactic asked after snapping back to reality. Hyper gave them a closer look at the tree and almost a minute after his punch, the bloody fist began to disappear. "As long as there is life on Mobius, I can give my corrupted blood to the planet to purify it. But doing so is as deadly as it is crucial. Without enough pure blood, I will not survive after the transfer." Hyper replied. Suddenly, a loud explosion filled their ears and shook the ground beneath them.

Sonic was flying around frantically in an attempt to escape, but it seemed pointless. "Man, how can Eggman move so fast? It's like he's getting stronger with each passing second." He thought. Then out of nowhere, a giant, mechanical fist punched him straight into a mountain. Sonic began to show signs of fatigue and pain as he got out of the crater he made. "Oh Sonic! How are you liking my little surprise? Don't answer that, it's not meant to be good." Eggman spoke from a Unknown location. Sonic was getting angrier with each failed attack, as his opponent was so fast that he was invisible.

"Come on Eggman! Are you scared to show yourself?" the golden hedgehog taunted. Sonic knew that Eggman wouldn't refuse a request like this. "Very well hedgehog. I'll be happy to show you the machine that will end your life." Eggman replied in a sinister tone. As he finished, Sonic could see a faint ripple ahead of him which eventually took the shape of the Death Egg Robot. However, it looked taller and it wasn't as round as before. Even the colour scheme was different to the point of being futuristic.

"Well Sonic? Any last words?" Eggman asked with a evil grin. Sonic was forced to think of a clever question that could benefit him in the battle, but was actually being careful for once. "Tell me, just how is it that your little science project is able to get as strong as it currently is?" he asked confidently. Eggman sat in the seat of his machine and laughed at the reply, or question as the case may be. "It's only natural to want to know the strengths of the better man, so I'll only say this once."

Every time I manage to get a power strong enough to defeat you, those Chaos Emeralds are always in your possession. But I have worked around this problem with a neat loophole I found. I can power my mechs with the Emeralds, but I can never obtain all seven of them. So I decided to do the next best thing! Remote energy. With each passing second that you remain in your Super form, my machine gets stronger, so even if you were to get stronger, I'll always be two steps ahead!" Eggman explained before laughing manically.

Sonic was shocked. Eggman had been remotely gaining power from the emeralds, even now he was getting stronger. As he thought, the distinct sound of a biplane grew closer, catching his attention as well as Eggman's. "Tails?! Get out of here!" Sonic yelled to his friend. However, it was too late as the plane had been vaporized by a giant laser shot by Eggman. Sonic looked in horror as the plane vanished, along with his best friend, Tails.

"I've been kept from my goal for too long and I won't let anything delay it again!" Eggman coldly stated. One thing Eggman wasn't really expecting though, was a burning ball of golden aura that got him by surprise. "Now who dares to stand in my way?!" he shouted in rage. Sonic was caught by surprise at what happened as well, but he did his best to remain focused. "I dare, Egghead!" a voiced called out from behind the Death Egg Robot.

Eggman turned around to see a SECOND GOLDEN HEDGEHOG before him with a intense aura of fire. "HYPER?! You've got a super form?!" Sonic shouted in surprise. Eggman slowly regained his evil grin and began laughing. "You think you can beat me with the Chaos Emeralds?! You must be dumber than you look!" he commented as he laughed. Sonic flew to Hyper's side and they both looked at the mad scientist angrily. "First of all, who said anything about both of us using the Chaos Emeralds? I control my own emeralds. And secondly, your attempt at killing Tails… Failed!" Hyper retorted.

Eggman was now now in a state of extreme confusion and anger, as he hadn't anticipated a second set of emeralds. "What were you saying when you mentioned Tails?" Sonic asked. Hyper explained what happened and how he got to his current position, along with some extra details. "So the Hyper Emeralds are half of the former Super Emeralds?" he asked again. Hyper nodded in response, but was stopped by a giant, mechanical hand approaching them. Luckily, he was fast enough to block the attack and held it back with no effort whatsoever.

"Excuse me, we are trying to have a conversation here!" Hyper snapped as he knocked the machine back. Hyper followed up with a spin kick to the arm closest to him and ripped it from the giant mech. "HOW DARE YOU! THOSE PARTS ARE BRAND NEW!" Eggman yelled. Hyper began to reshape the metal of the arm with his hands, using the fire he generated to forge it into shape and he eventually created a custom sword to use. "Well I'm sorry. Let me fix that by returning them to THE FACTORY!" Hyper yelled in response.

He charged towards the mech as his sword changed from a metallic design to a molten rock texture, emitting strong streams of fire upon changing. Sonic was surprised as not only could Hyper rip an arm off the Death Egg Robot, but he could take the scrap from the arm and create a volcanic blade on the spot. Hyper was quickly slashing at the machine, but Eggman was barely able to dodge every one while coming to terms with his situation.

The intense battle came to a stop when both Eggman and Hyper had realized they weren't getting anywhere with this. "It seems we are evenly matched, apart from you missing an arm. Just give up and I'll let you leave with your honor intact." Hyper suggested. However, Eggman just laughed hysterically at the offer and he appeared to have gone crazy. "Did I forget to mention that the Death Egg Robot isn't the only thing gaining power from the Chaos Emeralds?"

Then out of nowhere, a metallic blue figure spin kicked Hyper in the face and launched him into the mountain. Sonic looked at the figure to see who, or what it was. The large amount of fear that filled the sky could only mean one thing. "METAL SONIC?!" Sonic shouted in horror. The robotic doppelganger was floating in place with glowing, red eyes and a cold, permanent expression. Below the action, Tails, Cosmic and Galactic watched in fear at the threat above them.

"Oh no! Metal Sonic is here too?!" Tails stated. Cosmic tried to comfort his sister, but something about the atmosphere just seemed unsettling. "Tails? What are you doing here?" a male voice asked. The trio looked around for the source of the voice, when gentle footsteps could be heard. Tails eventually spotted a red echidna walking towards them with a serious expression on his face. "Knuckles? What's wrong? Is the Master Emerald okay?" the two tailed fox asked.

"We need to get to the altar now! It's urgent!" Knuckles replied. Suddenly, a burning figure crashed into a group of tree nearby and caught the attention of the four. "What was that?" Cosmic asked. Everyone exchanged looks before they went to investigate. Tails got to the crash site first and to his surprise, found Hyper in the crater with several cuts and bruises. "Hyper! Are you okay?" The fox called out as he rushed to help the hedgehog.

"God… damm… mechs. If I wasn't… interested… in them, they'd all be scrap." Hyper groaned as he slowly got to his feet. "Hyper, you're not in your Super form! What happened?" Cosmic asked as Galactic and Knuckles arrived with him. "It appears that Eggman is gaining energy remotely from the Chaos Emeralds and it seems Metal Sonic is using the same technology. " Hyper explained. The other four gasped at the news and Hyper looked up at the sky.

"Sonic's up there?! We need to get him to the Master Emerald!" Knuckles shouted. Suddenly, the same green light from before appeared, but this time, a giant green pillar of light shone at the shrine's location. Everyone saw this, including Sonic, Eggman and Metal Sonic, which seemed to contain limitless energy. "We need to go before Eggman gets there!" Hyper shouted. Everyone began to run towards the light, but Sonic was still wondering what was happening.

"Metal Sonic! Obtain the Master Emerald!" Eggman demanded. Without hesitation, the doppelganger sped off towards the shrine, leaving Sonic behind before giving chase himself. Back down to earth, the other five had gotten a headstart, but soon it would mean nothing, as Metal Sonic drew closer. "He's gaining on us! We need to hold Metal Sonic back!" Hyper shouted. Thoughts were racing through his mind as all the possible plans of action fell apart.

"We'll handle it!" Cosmic said as Galactic nodded in response. Tails and Knuckles seemed to be against the idea, but Hyper was strangely excited about the plan. "Okay. But I'm tagging along. Tails, Knuckles. Get to the Master Emerald. We'll deal with Metal Sonic." He replied. With everything set, the five split up and got to work.

GOD DAMMIT! I was so intent on adding details that I ended up in a 3 part spectacular. Oh well. More cliffhangers. To be honest, my focus sorta fell apart near the end of this chapter. So apparently, Hyper has a rare virus that could potentially corrupt him, but by depositing impure blood into the planet, he can remain healthy. That and his very own Super form is revealed along with the mysterious Hyper Emeralds. Also, Metal Sonic using a remote power source to become stronger is a threat unlike any before. To be frank; $#*T's about to go down.
