"FIRE!!" yelled Sonic, as 15 missiles flew at Metal. Metal flew at them head on, and then sidestepped them at the last moment, and slashed at Sonic, who ran for cover.
Sonic ran into the hidden area below his base, and set the turrets to auto.
"Heh…Metal won't see this coming!" said Sonic with a grin.
Metal quickly smashed the missile structures, and he immediately started attacking the base. However, he saw four metal rods go up too late. They shot a massive bolt of EMP, and Metal fell with a crash.
NO! System report! shouted Metal in his mind.
System utilizing the Master Emerald to recharge systems. Capable of moving in 0.2 minutes.
Wow… he thought. Maybe I should play possum to let him put his guard down?
"Metal, metal, metal. I though you could do better than this…oh, well. I shall self destruct this base with you on it, and I'll just run off now. See ya!" said Sonic, emerging from the base with a grin.
System recharge complete.
"DIE SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!!" yelled Metal, as he flew at Sonic at an amazing speed, and he headbutted him, that sent him flying a few feet, and breaking a few ribs.
"Ugh!" said Sonic, as he flew into a tree.
"Now…PERISH!!" yelled Metal, as he charged a massive energy cannon.
"SONIC!!"
"What?" said Metal surprised.
Tails, came flying in with a giant bomb attached to his plane, and he dropped it on Metal's head.
It stunned him, but did no visible damage to him. He snarled at Tails, and turned his attention back to Sonic, and he fired.
KABOOOM!!
Metal's blast vaporized a large area, and Sonic was no where to be seen.
"I cannot believe it…did I do it?" said Metal in awe for a second.
"Hey Metal head!" yelled a familiar voice.
"Nope." He said, and turned to the voice.
Sonic had resorted to the lowest of the low, and had pointed a lazer at Amy. "Ever heard of Chaos Control?"
"Leave Amy out of this fight!" roared Metal.
"I can't do that pal, you see…you are in this giant form that makes it impossible for me to beat you in alone. And as you see…I don't have all the chaos emeralds. So, here's the deal. You get out of that form, and fight me fair, or I blow Amy's head off."
"Sonic…you little…" said Amy angrily. Not daring to move.
Cream got angry. Sonic had forgotten about her. She threw Cheese at Sonic as hard as she could.
"Now, Metal…what will it…OW!" said Sonic, dropping the lazer gun.
Metal flew straight into Sonic, and knocked the emerald out of his other hand. He then, picked him up with a claw, flew over the ocean, and dropped him.
"Goodbye, Sonic the Hedgehog." Said Metal, and he fired a bolt of energy, that hit Sonic before he hit the water.
Tails couldn't believe his eyes. He had just seen Metal destroy Sonic. Was he really dead? Had Metal finally destroyed him?
"No…Sonic…no…" said Tails sadly. "We were…brothers…"
Amy was happy at Metal's victory, but was saddened by the look she saw on Tails's face. Sonic was Tails's best friend. Oh this wasn't going to go well.
"Oh no…" gasped Amy. "What should I do?"
Metal didn't believe that he had finally killed Sonic. He was scanning the waters for life, and he kept seeing a hedgehog appear on his sonar.
"He just hasn't drowned yet…he just hasn't…what?" he said, surprised.
On the sonar, he saw a giant ship, an underwater ship pick him up, and start to drive away.
"Blast you Eggman…" said Metal, as he plunged into the water.
Sonic thought he was dead. He thought he was. But, strangely enough. Eggman had saved him.
"Muohohoho! Well, if it isn't Sonic himself. Going for a swim?" said Eggman with a grin.
"Eggaman, how did you…" started Sonic.
"Now, now…this is not the time. Metal is on our tail, and I think we should get out of here. Now…if you have any idea of how to beat Metal, then I would like to hear it." Said Eggman with a frown.
"Well, nothing comes to mind, but he needs Amy for his robotization idea to work." Said Sonic. "He also has the Master Emerald, we can count on Knuckles as being on our side.
BLAAMMOO!!
"We're under attack!" said Eggman frantically. "Release the Egg sharks!"
(Sonic rolls his eyes.)
Metal was behind the fast moving ship, blasting away at it. His mission was to blow it to smithereens. Suddenly, five metal sharks flew out of it, and charged at Metal.
"Blasted robots." Muttered Metal, as he destroyed one with his lazer cannon.
He crushed two others with his free hands, and he fired upon another, causing it to explode. The last one, bit into his chest, and attempted to shake him furiously.
Metal grabbed the pest, and stuck it in his lazer cannon, and he fired at Eggman's ship.
"The Egg sharks have been destroyed!" said Eggman. "Sonic, do you have a chaos emerald?"
Sonic looked at him oddly. "No, Metal knocked it out of my hand."
Eggman turned around, and opened a panel. "No matter, I have two, and that should be enough to teleport the ship. Now, all you have to do, is put these in that holder over there, and chaos control us far from Metal Sonic."
"Alright Doc." Said Sonic.
Metal continued firing at Eggman's ship…but then he noticed something…it was glowing…with chaos energy.
"Oh no you don't go chaos control on me a second time." Said Metal, and he opened his chest. There was the Master Emerald.
"EMERALD AURA!" yelled Metal, as he activated the program. The Master Emerald glowed, and created a negating aura, that stopped chaos control in it's tracks.
"Oh no! Now what Doc?" said Sonic.
Doctor Eggman frowned. "I just built this blasted thing…but it's our only hope…"
Metal Sonic grinned. They had stopped moving. They had given up.
"To ensure that Amy and I will live in peace…you must be destroyed…both of you!" said Metal.
Fire the emerald cannon one more time.
Affirmative. Generating power…
…
Complete.
Metal grinned. Excellent. He thought.
"Fire." Stated Metal, and the blast destroyed the ship in a devastating blast.
Above the water, Amy
was comforting Tails, who was really upset. Amy had no idea of what
to do. They both were trying to kill each other, and she liked Metal,
and Tails liked
Sonic.
"Oh my this is not going to work at all…" said Amy with a sigh.
Suddenly, a huge eruption of water shot up in the sky from the blast. Tails and Amy looked up, and Tails looked happier. He thought Sonic was still alive if there was still blasts going on.
"Yay Sonic!" said Tails.
"I had better stop Metal before he kills him." Said Amy, running to the water.
Suddenly, Metal flew out of the water, and landed on the ground.
Amy looked up at him. "Metal…is Sonic alive?" whispered Amy.
Metal shook his head. "No, Eggman saved him, and then I blew them both up." He replied.
"Oh no…Tails…" said Amy, with her hands on her mouth.
"Umm…what's wrong? I destroyed the two people who would interfere with our life."
Amy looked at the ground. "Umm…Tails and Sonic are like brothers. He won't forgive you for this." She said.
Metal sighed. "That isn't good."
Amy nodded. "Well, at least you got Eggman."
Metal frowned and stared at the sky. "Yeah…"
(Meanwhile…)
"I bet you're glad I had escape pods with cloaking devices, aren't you Sonic?" said Eggman with a grin.
Sonic sighed. "I've had WAY too much excitement for one day. I nearly died three times in one day!"
Eggman laughed. "That's understandable, now...let's go back to my base, so we can figure out how to destroy Metal."
Sonic shook his head. "Not yet, I gotta let Tails know I am okay." He said.
Eggman frowned. "Fine, but make it quick, if Metal finds out, we won't last long."
"Yeah." Said Sonic. Metal, I had better not come back to two Metal overlords…"
Yes, I know I took a loooooong time to update. I got stuck…and I was lazy. Lol. But, I'm getting back on track; I know this was shorter than the others, but I'm getting back into writing, so another will be up sometime soon. Sorry to those who were kept waiting!
