Chapter 6: "Yellow Lightning to the rescue!!!"

The trip to the precinct was short, but it looked like an eternity to the blue hedgehog. Everything seemed to be in slow motion in the head of Sonic. In the front seat, Cross and his partner started to annoy the blue hedgehog.

You know… I had almost forgotten you. But looks like, destiny has brought you once again into my path. As we usually say down in the precinct, "It's better one illegal street racer inside the slammer, than two in the streets", hahaha! –said Cross.

You're right… this one is a fine acquirement. This will tell those stupids on wheels, who are the bosses in this town. –said Monica

Sonic was too tired to even pay attention to what they were saying. Every single bone and muscle of his body filled his brain with feelings of unbearable pain and suffering.

After five minutes, they were in front of the police precinct. This one was a tall building, recently built because the architectural design was quite futuristic, and it looked like a huge glass surrounded by steel hoops. The entrance remembered the entrances of the roman temples, but in a futuristic way, because it was made from glass, and it was possible to see "1st Police Precinct of South View City" in an electronic panel. Lots of cops could be seen right there in the entrance. Some of them were talking with each others, and others were holding criminals, who were waiting to be registered so they could put them in a cell. To cut a long story short, the precinct looked quite busy, demonstrating that the police didn't slept on the job.

Come on, move, you punk! –said Cross to the blue hedgehog, while he got off the car.

I don't think you know this, but I love the smell of fresh caught street racers in the morning, although it's almost dinner time already. But no matter, I'm going… what was that sound? –asked Monica.

The sound was identical to the sound of something being shattered into a million pieces. Then… from out of nowhere, a yellow Hummer H2 appeared shattering everything in his front. Speeding up, it destroyed Cross's car and made him and his partner run for their lives, leaving Sonic. When the Hummer H2 stopped, the side door opened, revealing the identity of the driver. It was a yellow hedgehog… he was dressed with a green shirt and a pair of red sport pants. His shoes were black and white tennis shoes. When Sonic realized that it was a hedgehog that was driving the Hummer, the blue hedgehog asked:

Who are you?

No time for presentations… I got to get you out of here, now. I'll explain everything later, just get in. –said the yellow hedgehog.

Using the last of his strength, Sonic climbed the faster he could inside the Hummer, closing the door behind of him. Once he was inside, the yellow hedgehog started to speed up, until reach the 200 Km/h, trashing what was left of the police vehicles. When Cross saw who it was, he picked his cell phone and said to the other person was on the other side this:

Get me 10 SRKF's SUV's on the 17th Street! We got a 5-1-0! Move!!!!!

In a couple of seconds, 10 Lamborghini Murciélago's appeared from inside the precinct garage, and started a high speed pursuit. Most of the drivers were officers that were trained for that kind of situations, and were considered the best of the best, although most of them couldn't keep up with the majority of the street racers. Meanwhile, inside the Hummer H2, Sonic tried to understand what was going on.

I don't know who you are, but I thank you… you save me from the clutches of those bastards.

Save the thanks and the presentations for later, because we got a bunch of SUV's of the SRKF's behind us, and those guys eat guys like us at breakfast! Hold on to you seat! –said the yellow hedgehog.

Pressing the N2O system button, the race reached nearly to the 250 Km/h in only a couple of seconds. The SUV's also started to speed up, demonstrating that they meant businesses. Seeing a possibility of getting rid of a couple of those assholes, Sonic said:

Turn left over there, if you go through the park, you can destroy a couple of them, and send them to Hell.

Following the option of Sonic, the yellow hedgehog turned left, but turned too soon, crashing into a building, fortunately, that section of the building was nothing but windows and glasses, and the Hummer got through easily. Behind them, three SUV's got their tires blasted, and weren't able to keep up with the pursuit. The pursuit itself got more dangerous when they ventured themselves downtown; making other cars that didn't had nothing to do with that. Crashing things and destroying private property were that ways they used to get rid of the remaining SUV's. When the pursuit reached the top of the heat, there was only one more SUV after them, and the yellow hedgehog said:

Put your seat belt, and start praying… if you don't pray then it's a good time for you to start, because we're going to get into trouble if I don't do this correctly!

Stepping into the accelerator, he head into one of the highway billboards and destroy it into a dozen pieces, which landed on the SUV, making it impossible for him to continue the pursuit. With total confidence that the pursuit was over, the yellow hedgehog headed into one of the many tunnels of the city and disappeared.

That was so sweet… you really are one of the best in this kind of things… you know, the pursuits. –said Sonic.

Thanks… you too are good giving directions and advices. By the way, my name's George, George the hedgehog, also known as the "Yellow Lightning" by the authorities. And you are the new guy in town, Sonic the hedgehog, also known as the "guy who lost his car for the champion of South View City". –said George.

I didn't lose the car… that fat blubber of "Egghead" stole it from me. By the way, you don't work for him, do you? Because if you work, then you better prepare for getting you butt kicked, Sonic style…

Hold down, cowboy. Relax, I work for competition… I don't have anything to do with Dr. Eggman, in fact, I also hate him. You don't need to thank me for saving your ass; it was a pleasure, besides, we street racers have to protect each one's back… you never know when you're going to need backup. If you're going to thank anyone, then you better save the thanks for one person who thought that you would need some help, because if Dr. Eggman accepts a challenge from a new guy, in that case he just wants his car. Which model was your car?

It was a BMW M3 GTR, totally customized and ready for action… at least, until an hour ago. I don't know how, but I'm going to get a rematch with that fatso, and I'm going to get my car back! –said Sonic with an angry voice.

Then you better take it easy, because you're not going to get your ride back, at least that easily, but don't worry, the people who I'm taking you are the best in what they know and they're going to help you.

Who are they, anyway?

Let's just say that one of them is a girl who has a big crush on you… you'll see who they are. By the way, I'm one of them, myself… and I beg you trust me; you have nothing to worry about. –said George, when he turned right, in direction to Metal Beach.

When he said that, Sonic felt that he was being sincere, and then, the blue hedgehog just decided to sit on his seat, and rest his eyes a bit, leaving the driving to George.
