FINALLY AN UPDATE!!!!...

Sonic was still running and jumping atop the buildings, shuddering every time he looked up at the two moons that now had dark clouds slowly gathering around them. "Man, I should get hold of myself already! What will everyone think if they knew that I'm totally freaked out?" He thought to himself

"Ooooh! Looky here! The great fearsome hero is scared from a couple of moons hanged up in the sky! Don't worry, Sonic ! They don't bite!" Sonic rolled his eyes as he imagined his friendly rival red Echidna, Knuckles, saying this with a mocking smile "He won't stop bugging me about it for the rest of my life!"

"Sonic, there is no need to fear such things! Think of it as a harmless Astrological Disorder that needs to be fixed!" He imagined Tails in his cheerful mood. "Yeah, that's him alright! Always trying to finding the right scientific thing to say!"

"Oh, silly, Soniku! Come on! What's so scary about two beautiful full moons so close together?! (sigh) I think a night like this should be celebrated with a wedding ceremony! Please Soniku! Say you'll marry me!" Sonic shuddered at that last thought "Amy's gonna make me really regret it!"

After jumping over another few more buildings he heard sirens coming from down below which made him come to a halt to observe. He saw several GUN units , that consisted mainly of robots with fewer military men in their vehicles, chasing what seemed like a 'Rider' along the main streets. "What's the excitement all about?" He then felt some strange presence that made him shift his gaze. At a far off distance ahead he noticed several weird obscure figures jumping from one building to another just as he did.

"… Who are those…?"

"Hey look! Rock and Roll are in trouble!" a running yellow masked Robot Master in a black jumpsuit stopped in his tracks pointing down from atop the buildings, forcing two other Robot Masters, that were with him, to halt as well.

"What's go- I say what in tarnation is going on here?! That no-good varmint, Bass, grabin our people and running off like a wild goose on the loose!" yelled another Robot Master with anger in his southern accent "Elecman, Gutsman, let's get'm! I'll grab'm and make'm FEEL the burn of my Flames of Eternal Justice!" he finished off as he glared down at the said ebony and his said flames fumed from his hands and head.

"I'm wid ya all da way, Fireman!" said Gutsman the bulky third member of the Light-bot group who, had been scanning the area from atop the buildings for sometime before they found their siblings in their enemy's grasp. The group then noticed some vehicles with sirens and some strange robots they've never seen before chasing after them.

"Wait, who are these guys?" Asked Elecman as he used his super image sensors, that could detect details of any fast object no matter how fast it went, to scan one of the vehicles that chased his siblings and Bass, and he noticed a capital 'G' adorned with stars and two crossed feathers stamped on it. He searched through his memory banks for details about the chasers but the results came negative

"Probably some good guys trying to help Rock & Roll!" answered Gutsman.

"But we better be watchful since we don't know which side they're really on." Pointed out Fireman.

The other two nodded in agreement. They continued following the troop for sometime until something forced them to halt all of a sudden… As they were about to jump to the next building three figures jumped right in front of them from the gap between the building the Light bots were on and the next one. This forced them to back off to make a distance between them and the newcomers and they immediately went into their fighting stances once they realized with whom they were facing.

"Wily-bots!" Fireman was the first to speak with a frown.

"Ah, Light bots! Vat a nice encounter!" Replied a vampire-like Robot Master with a Transylvanian accent and a fake smile as he stepped forward bowing.

"Shademan!" irritated by the vampire's attitude, Fireman launched his burning fist at Shademan who side jumped out of the way. Fireman turned around to face him again. "Your Leader, Bass, will pay if -"

"Listen, Light-bots" Shademan raised the palm of his hand towards Fireman "Vee're not here to fight you. Ve vant to make a deal."

"Huh?!" the three Light bots looked at him.

"Shademan speaksthetruth." Continued a second Wily-bot who's head looked like a protective race helmet and had wheels attached to his shoulders. All in all he had an overall look that reminded some people of an old, but infamous, action cartoon and toy series from the early 80's "Wewishto save Forte from those chasers, andyouwish to save Megaman & Roll." He finished off trying hard not to speak so fast.

"-and all three are in the same boat at the moment, so let's team up and save'em all. No fights and no back stabbing." Finished off the third wily-bot who's body was held together by a series of electromagnets and had a stern no-joking-around-with look on his face.

"Hold it, Junkman! Are you sayin dat all tree are in common danger?" asked Gutsman.

"No! They're all playing a nice game of tag with some Kindergarteners! OF COURSE THEY'RE ALL IN COMMON DANGER!" Junkman answered as if he was talking to an idiot.

"And how can we trust you?" Elecman asked suspiciously as he folded his arms. "Even if we assume that what you're saying about Bass being in a 'mess' with Megaman is true, what makes you think that we would join you?"

"I'd ruther play tag with a cobra than make a treaty with ya'll! We haven't forgotten bout what that wretch, Bass, did to ar boy!" frowned Fireman at the Wily bots as he walked back to his group obviously referring to the 7th Robot Rebellion incident.

"Yeah, you Wily-bots aren't trust worthy at all." Said Gutsman as he kept his fists raised in front of him.

"Are you implying that you von't need our help?" Shademan crossed his arms, took another step forward and started pacing right & left in front of the Light bots as if in a thinking process and continued talking as he rubbed his chin without looking at them "Then I assume that you three can confront those unknown military machines on your own?...Vithout any help?... Or backup for that matter?" He then came to a sudden halt between his group and there's and faced the later "I doubt it!" He said in confidence, then pointed at one of the passing military units' symbol. "Do you have any knowledge about this army? Even if you are Robot Masters, and capable of 'scrapping' military machines like a child's play I doubt you'll have a pleasant time dealing with a foreign army all by yourself." He then waved a hand "I'm not implying that you're veek, no, no, but I think that lack of strategy will be the end of you, given that you seem to be all on your own and are about to deal vith some unfamiliar force. Tell me, my good friends, vhat vould be your chances of survival if such said force turns out quite… unmanageable, hmmm?"

The Light-bots stared silently at Shademan for a few seconds before Elecman decided to speak up.

"What makes you think that we're on our own?"

"Have you tried contacting home lately? Ve've been having this problem since that explosion occurred. And I'm assuming you do as vell." Answered Shademan

The light bots fell silent once more. What he said was true. After the sudden earthquake and strange illuminations that occurred 24 hours ago they found themselves not only in an unknown place, but also unable to teleport anywhere nor they were able to contact Dr. Light or any other ally for that matter. So it seemed that their options are limited and must be really careful with what actions they may take. They then turned to each other and started whispering.

"He has a point there." Elecman shrugged his shoulders.

"Huh?! What's ya sayin, Elec? We're Robot Masters!" questioned Gutsman. "No sweat in handling some toy robots like dem!"

"Yes I know. But have you noticed their Logo! Does anyone of us know who these guys are? We'll be in a deep mess if they turn out to be something out of this world!" replied Elecman figuratively.

Elecman's words made Gutsman rub his chin in deep thought "Yeah, now dat I think about it… Don't get me wrong! I can wipe out a troop on a good day but from the looks of it we'll be needing all da help we need!"

"And don't forget that we're unable to contact the lab for support in case it turns out nasty, which means that we have to rely on them! So what do you suggest, Fireman?"

Fireman silently looked at his siblings who looked back at him. He seemed to be contemplating all that he just heard and saw. It only took him half a minute before he made up his mind and faced Shademan as he stepped forward. "Fine! It's a truce! We'll join ya!" he said proudly.

"Ah yes! I trusted that you vould be vise enough!" the vampire smirked devilishly and raised his hand to shake Fireman's forgetting that he had torches instead and upon realizing it he retracted his hand immediately in fear of catching fire. Fireman on the other hand didn't raise his hand at all!

"But I'm fixin my eyes on y'all" he took another step closer and looked at Shademan in the eye "One false move outta ya I'll make sure that it'll be your last!"

"What?! Hostages?!" Rouge was talking to a GUN member through a transceiver while she and Shadow were still riding Shadow's Buggy (or whatever its really called.) "Alright then!" She finished off and turned her head to face Shadow. "You heard that?"

"Loud and clear! This is getting too serious! We need to stop him now! Tell the units to back off when we corner him. I'll deal with him personally. I don't want any innocents getting hurt!"

"YO, GUYS!"

Shocked by the lightning arrival of a new comer, Rouge almost lost her grip on her transceiver but luckily caught it in the last second. She then looked furiously at the smirking 'blue annoyance' that suddenly appeared sitting between her and Shadow with his legs crossed and arms behind his head like there was not a single care in his world. Shadow on the other hand seemed to be calm while driving his vehicle smoothly, as if what happened was an everyday routine.

"HEDGEHOG!" yelled Rouge at Sonic, while Shadow remained focused on the road.

"Glad to see you two, too!" replied Sonic casually as he darted his eyes between Rouge and Shadow before looking ahead with a leveled hand over his forehead as if he was trying to see what lay beyond the horizon. "So what's up with this crazy game of 'tag'? It kinda reminds me of the time when GUN was CRAZY about you, Shadow!" recalling the 'Black Aliens' incident.

"And what makes you think we'll tell you anything?" snapped Rouge.

"GUN suspects that the one we're chasing has a Chaos Emerald!" replied Shadow, to Rouge's disconcert "Not only that but he's got a couple of hostages as well. In other words be a bit serious about this for once! We must bring them safe!"

"Hey! I'm always serious!" He replied defensively while waving his hands in the air to stress how obvious that was.

"Yeah, right!" Rouge rolled her eyes

"I can prove it! You see I have an important piece of info to deliver. I think that GUN might get ambushed!"

"What!?"

"I saw a small group of suspicious characters stalking them from atop these building!"

"They're probably associated with the fugitive!" Shadow said fixing his eyes on the road.

"No problem! I mean a small group can't fight a semi-army off now, can they?" said Rouge

"Maybe, Rouge. But just in case inform them about it. Better safe than sorry." commanded Shadow

Rouge obliged and got out her transceiver to make the call.

"Well then I'll move ahead of ya! I'll protect the front while you two protect the rear."

"Got it!" affirmed Shadow

Sonic then stood up and was about to jump out but turned his attention to his comrade "You didn't happen to see or hear from the others, did you?" he asked in a concerned tone.

"No, I'm afraid we haven't yet" replied Shadow sensing Sonic's worry.

Sonic frowned and looked downwards but then looked back at Shadow regaining his smirk quickly "Heh, they're probably chilling out somewhere I'm sure we'll meet them soon." With that he jumped out and zoomed ahead zigzagging his way through the GUN units.

"What do you mean that this is some unreliable info?! Just send someone to spy on-!"

Rouge's call was cutoff as a massive explosion occurred where the fugitives where…

I wanted to add more but I wanted the next scene to be perfect when I next upload. (don't know when actually)

I'm not that good with accents but I hope I did well.
