Sonic was still shaking. He was terrified of what Eggman might do to him next. Every noise Sonic heard made his heart jump. He heard the door opening again and saw Eggman come in. His ears dropped down, and his heart pounded again. "N-no l-leave me alone." Sonic whimpered as Eggman took the jar off of the shelf.
As soon as Eggman dumped Sonic out onto his hand, Sonic bolted and ran off of Eggman as fast as he could and ran out of the room. "Damn it!" Eggman yelled, and went over to an intercom. "Attention the hedgehog is loose don't let him get away!" Eggman yelled. He put the base on lockdown, grabbed a net, and went after Sonic.
Meanwhile, Sonic was running down the halls trying to find a open door or a crack in the wall to escape, already being chased after by badniks and legionnaires, barley dodging attacks. Sonic finally found a small crack in the wall but it was too small for even him. Sonic spin dashed the wall trying to break off whatever he could, when suddenly a legionnaire grabbed him.
"Hey! L-let me go!" Sonic cried. The legionnaire started carrying Sonic away. When the legionnaire made it around the corner Sonic raised his quills and dug them into the legionnaire's hand, drawing blood. The legionnaire screamed and let go. Sonic ran back to the crack in the wall and stared spin dashing at it again. Eggman ran by the legionnaire who was holding his bleeding hand. Eggman assumed it was Sonic's doing. "Where is he!" Eggman yelled.
"I found him digging at the wall around the corner and when I was taking him to you he stabbed me with his quills. I think he ran back to where he was digging." The legionnaire grunted. Sonic finally got the crack big enough for him to fit though. He went though the wall but there was a steel wall in his path, due too Eggman's lock down. Sonic tried spin dashing the wall but it was far too strong and thick.
"No...no, NO!" Sonic yelled. Sonic was so frustrated. He tried hard to break down this wall and now he had to try to find another way out. Sonic came out off the wall, only to be greeted by Eggman's foot crashing down in front of him. Eggman bent down to grab Sonic but he ran back into the crack. His heart began pounding and he started shaking again. "You have 3 seconds to get back out here hedgehog. 1...2...3!" Eggman yelled.
Sonic didn't budge. Eggman put his foot in front of the crack so Sonic couldn't get out. "You, go get me some tweezers now!" Eggman yelled at the legionnaire that found Sonic. The legionnaire left and came back with the tweezers, and handed them to Eggman. Eggman laid down to become eye level with the crack in the wall, and started putting the tweezers in. Sonic quickly ducked under the tweezers and ran out.
Unfortunately Eggman expected this and quickly caught Sonic with the net. Sonic tried spin dashing his way out but the netting was reinforced and he just ended tangled up. "Let me go! I don't belong to you!" Sonic yelled. Eggman reached into the net, pulled Sonic out of the tangle and brought Sonic up to his face. Sonic squirmed trying to get away.
Eggman squeezed Sonic a little harder than he had before causing Sonic to let out an agonizing scream. Eggman then slammed Sonic against the wall. Eggman let go, letting Sonic fall to the ground. Sonic tried lifting himself up by his aching arms but was kicked and sent skidding across the floor. Sonic was kicked again two more times. Sonic didn't move he just laid still, breathing heavily, moaning, crying, and shaking. Eggman picked Sonic up with his thumb and index finger. Sonic cried in pain. His whole body was throbbing in pain. He was badly bruised, had a small amount of bleeding, and a black eye. The only reason Sonic survived this beating was because the energy of all the rings he had used was still in his body. "W-why?" Sonic squeaked.
"WHY!?" Eggman yelled, and squeezed Sonic again. "You've been a thorn in my side for years. I finally have you right where I want you. And hedgehog, as far as your concerned, you belong to me. Your not going home." Eggman yelled. Sonic's heart shank hearing this, realizing Eggman intended on keeping him trapped here for the rest of his life. "And if you ever try to escape again, your punishment will be worse than it was today." Eggman growled then squeezed Sonic again.
"AHHHHH! P-please s-stop. I'm s-s-sorry. P-please!" Sonic cried. Eggman loosened his grip and carried Sonic back to the room he escaped from and put Sonic back in the jar. Sonic cried out when he hit the bottom of the jar. Eggman put the jar back in the shelf and left. It only took a few seconds for Sonic to pass out.
