East Los Angeles: Night
Welcome to East Los Angeles, home of the notorious and very dangerous Emerald Crime Family. The streets were infested with all their loyal members and servants of the Emerald Family. Scourge was just arriving to the Emerald mansion with Sonic and Shadow following. The three detectives parked their cars and exited, meeting the cold hard glares of the loyalists.
"This shit is crazy. East LA is a warzone." Sonic said looking at the cold glares.
"You can say that again." Shadow responded. The two partners looked over to see Scourge opening his trunk and pulling out appliances.
"Here. This is for the Emerald Family." Scourge said handing the appliances to the pair.
"So, what the hell are we doing here?" Sonic asked.
"You have nothing to worry about. We're just going to deliver presents for a good cause." Scourge replied closing his trunk. The green hedgehog led the pair up the stairs to the mansion entrance, as more Emerald Family members gave the officers colder glares. Scourge and the pair was stopped temporarily by a dark red hedgehog named Charlie; the Emerald Family's personal bodyguard.
"What can I do for you officers?" Charlie asked slowly showing the pistol in his holster.
"I'm here to deliver gifts. These two are with me." Scourge answered. Charlie too one long look at Sonic and Shadow before allowing the up the stairs. The three hedgehogs finally made it to the front door and knocked on it. The locks from the other side of the door unlocked and the door opened; revealing a black female hedgehog in a magenta t-shirt, black jeans, magenta sneakers, and white gloves. It was Nebula's twin sister and Don Nico's niece Selene the Hedgehog.
"Hello Scourge." Selene greeted. She was very angry that Scourge killed her cousin back in Las Vegas.
"I've come bearing gifts." Scourge said holding up the appliances. Selene looked over Scourge's shoulder to see Sonic and Shadow standing behind him. She opened the door enough to take the gift from Scourge and opened it for a quick look. She looked up at to see Scourge smirking before allowing the three officers in her home.
"Come in." Selene said. Scourge smiled as he entered the home first followed by Sonic and Shadow.
"Thank you." Sonic said entering the home. Inside the mansion were the rest of Selene's relatives, each one having similar facial features as Nebula and Amy. Each relative took one good look at the three before returning to their respective activities. Selene led the trio to the kitchen, were a male, light blue hedgehog named Gamer and a male, dark orange hedgehog named Tracy were playing poker at the kitchen table.
"Full house bitch." Tracy happily gloated.
"Shut up and set up the deck." Gamer replied. The two hedgehogs saw their friend and boss Selene enter the kitchen with Scourge, Sonic, and Shadow.
"Here's the money." Selene said setting the gift down. Gamer opened the box to see $500,000 dollars' worth of drug money inside. Gamer pulled out the money to count while Scourge folded his arms and smirked. Sonic and Shadow just stood in the doorway, not knowing what was going on and why are they here?
"It's all here." Gamer said to Selene.
"Told you." Scourge stated. Just then, Scourge's phone began to ring and he checked the caller ID.
"I have to take this really quick. Where's your bathroom?" Scourge asked Selene.
"Down the hall and take a right." Selene said sitting in her chair. Scourge left the room to answer his call, leaving Sonic and Shadow alone with Selene and her friends.
"Hey cop?" Tracy said to Shadow.
"What?" Shadow replied.
"Ever play poker?" Tracy asked.
"No, I'm not a gambler." Shadow answered.
"Sit down and join our game." Gamer offered.
"No thanks, we're good." Sonic answered for Shadow.
"It's an important business call for Scourge. Plus, I heard he needed to take a shit so he won't be out for a while." Selene said as Gamer shuffled the deck. Sonic and Shadow looked at each other in deep thought before finally accepting their offer.
"Alright." Sonic said taking a seat right in the center seat.
"We'll play one game." Shadow added taking a seat next to Sonic. Gamer handed each player their cards as the game was under way.
"So, any good cards?" Selene asked Sonic.
"Give me two." Sonic said to Gamer.
"Same here." Shadow added as well. Gamer handed each one their cards before speaking up.
"Okay, call it." Gamer said.
"A pair of Jacks." Shadow said throwing down his cards.
"I got nothing." Selene said showing an empty hand.
"Three of a kind bitches." Tracy excitedly gloated.
"Two pairs of Aces." Sonic said showing off his cards.
"Two pairs beat your three." Gamer said picking up the cards. Tracy huffed in anger before Sonic started to get up from his seat.
"It's time to go." Sonic said.
"Scourge's not done taking a shit, Sit down." Selene said folding her arms. Sonic could see Selene slowly pulling out her Glock 19 and setting it on the table. The blue hedgehog didn't want to cause any problems and slowly sat back in his seat. Shadow could feel the high tension in the room, he feared that something was not right. He was brought out of his thoughts by Tracy speaking to him.
"Hey cop, what are you packing?" Tracy asked.
"Berretta 22 standard issue." Shadow answered.
"Isn't that what all cops carry now?" Gamer said passing out the cards.
"Yeah." Sonic answered.
"Let's see them." Gamer asked. Sonic and Shadow looked at each other for one second before pulling out their guns and setting them on the table.
"Nice." Selene said as Gamer and Tracy checked out the guns.
"I have a double barrel shotgun right beside me." Gamer said showing the shotgun next to him. Seeing the shotgun so close to Gamer made Sonic and Shadow very uneasy.
"I think you boys would like to hear a story." Selene said to the two officers. "You see, it all started in Las Vegas where my cousin named Joey was enjoying his fun. One night, my cousin got into a heated argument with a green hedgehog over a game of Blackjack. My cousin wanted no trouble, but this asshole scum didn't give a shit and threaten him by pulling out his gun." Selene said. Sonic and Shadow slowly began to dissect Selene's story and knew who was she talking about.
"That night, for no reason other than feed his lust for blood, this scum killed my cousin point blank in the Four Dragons Casino. He showed no remorse at all even when he begged for his life and shot him again. It wasn't until this shithead came back home did he realized he killed my Uncle Nico's nephew." Selene finished her story. Gamer and Tracy just smiled at Sonic and Shadow before Selene spoke up again.
"By midnight tonight, Scourge must pay my Uncle Nico $10 million dollars for killing my cousin Joey or he will be killed." Selene added. After Sonic and Shadow heard the story, they finally realized why Scourge did what he did today and why they were involved.
"Hey Selene?" Gamer said to Selene. "I heard this blue hedgehog shot and killed a soldier in cold blood today. Scourge ordered him to do it." Gamer said.
"Oh yeah, I love to kill soldiers for fun. Hahahaha!" Tracy laughed. Sonic and Shadow gave the three hedgehogs cold glares as they realized what has happened; Scourge payed Selene and her friends off to kill them. He doesn't want any witnesses at all and Selene knew that Scourge was a little bitch and escaped through the bathroom window. Sonic and Shadow looked towards Selene as she spoke up to her friends.
"You know, I hate when a police officer kills a soldier. It makes me very mad." Selene said with venom. Just then, Sonic and Shadow threw their cards at Selene and flipped the table. Sonic and Shadow took out Tracy and Gamer before Selene smashed bottles of beer over their heads, cutting their heads opened. Gamer and Tracy recovered from the punches and kicked Sonic and Shadow in their guts.
"Ow!" Sonic groaned in pain.
"Shit!" Shadow groaned as Tracy kicked him in the gut again. Selene's family saw the scene unfold before their relative spoke up.
"Get in the other room now damn it!" Selene ordered. All of Selene's relative left to the other room as Gamer and Tracy tied the two officers' arms behind them. Selene kneeled at the struggling Sonic and Shadow and punched them.
"Your two are under arrest for assaulting my friends and working for that asshole Scourge." Selene said slapping them, cutting their lips in the process. Selene chuckled before giving Gamer and Tracy their direct orders.
"Drag their asses to the tub." Selene ordered. Sonic and Shadow screamed and struggled as Gamer and Tracy dragged them to the bathtub. Selene followed her boys with Gamer's shotgun in hand.
"Help!" Sonic screamed in fear.
"Let us go!" Shadow screamed as well.
"Shut up!" Selene shouted. Gamer and Tracy made it to the bathroom and placed Sonic and Shadow's head in the tub. Selene came to the pair, turned on the water, and aimed the shotgun at Sonic. Water and blood flowed down the drain as Sonic and Shadow continued to struggle.
"Close the door. It's going to be loud." Selene order Tracy, which he followed. Selene closed the shower curtain and was ready to kill Sonic and Shadow.
"Time to die punks!" Selene said. Sonic screamed until Gamer stopped Selene from pulling the trigger.
"Hold up Selene. Let me take their wallets." Gamer said taking Sonic and Shadow's wallet. However, Gamer grabbed the wrong wallet when he stripped Shadow's trench coat. When he looked both at Sonic's wallet and the other one, he was shocked to see a picture of Amy and Nebula in them.
"Hey Selene, you're not going to believe this shit. Isn't this your twin sister Nebula and your adoptive sister Amy?" Gamer asked showing Selene the wallets. Selene looked at the wallets and was shocked to see that these two officers had pictures of her sisters. Selene angrily looked at Sonic and Shadow, gripping the wallets tight in her hand.
"These two bastards. Where did you get these pictures?" Selene asked now holding the shotgun at Sonic's head.
"Shadow found Nebula's wallet and Amy gave me her picture!" Sonic screamed in fear. Selene didn't believe Sonic's answer and aimed the shotgun at Shadow this time.
"Don't bullshit me!" Selene shouted in anger.
"It's true! Nebula was being raped! I saved her!" Shadow shouted in fear.
"Don't lie to me!" Selene shouted back in anger.
"She was being raped and we saved her. She has a crush on Shadow!" Sonic screamed.
"Amy's in love with Sonic! It's the truth!" Shadow shouted as blood dripped from his mouth. Selene huffed angrily, but she was having second thoughts about killing Sonic and Shadow. She pulled out her cellphone and sat down on the toilet, she was going to make a call.
"I'm calling them. They're my sisters. If you're lying to me, then I'm blasting your balls off." Selene said aiming the shotgun at Sonic's balls. Gamer and Tracy watched as Selene waited until Nebula picked up the phone.
"Hello?" Nebula asked on the other line.
"Hey Nebula." Selene said.
"Hey Selene. Hang on, I'll get Amy." Nebula said. Nebula put her phone on speaker as she heard both Nebula and Amy's voice.
"Hey Selene, how's it going?" Amy asked kindly.
"Nothing. Did something happen to Nebula today?" Selene asked. Nebula felt frighten by Selene's question before speaking.
"No nothing happened." Nebula lied.
"Hey don't bullshit me Nebula. I want the truth." Selene asked her twin sister. Nebula knew she couldn't lie to her sister and told Selene the truth.
"Okay, I got jumped by these two crackheads in an alley today." Nebula said truthfully.
"Jumped huh?" Selene said.
"Yeah, they wanted to rape me. But then these two cops named Sonic and Shadow came out of nowhere and kicked their asses." Nebula said. Once she heard the names Sonic and Shadow, Selene looked down at the two hedgehogs in her tub before speaking again.
"Sonic and Shadow. What do they look like in appearance?" Selene said putting her finger on the trigger.
"Sonic is a blue hedgehog and Shadow is black. They saved me." Nebula said. Selene looked at the Sonic and Shadow, who gave her relieved expressions as Amy spoke up.
"Then they came to our home and we thanked them for saving Nebula. Nebula and I felt our hearts beating with love and we gave them each a picture." Amy added to the tense phone call. It was then Amy and Nebula realized why Selene called them; she had captured the two officers and was planning to kill them.
"Selene, please don't kill them. I love Sonic." Amy said feeling tears welling up in her eyes.
"Please spare Shadow." Nebula said feeling tears as well. Selene heard the sadness in her sisters' voices as she looked at Sonic and Shadow one last time.
"Don't worry, I won't." Selene said hanging up her phone. Selene handed her phone to Gamer as she smiled at the two officers.
"Well, what's up?" Gamer asked.
"These two were telling the truth. Some crazy shit huh?" Selene said.
"Yeah, really crazy." Tracy said. Selene smiled as she snapped her fingers and ordered Gamer and Tracy to pull the two officers back up in sitting positions. Sonic and Shadow let out huge sighs of relief as Selene patted their shoulders.
"This is for saving my sister Nebula. I owe you two big time." Selene said.
"Saving your sister is all the thanks we need." Shadow said taking deep breaths. Selene then placed towels around Sonic and Shadow's necks; she didn't want more blood on her floor.
"You two messed up my floor." Selene said. "You know this shit was just business, right? I know you didn't kill that soldier. You're free now, I'll deal with Scourge later." Selene said.
"Thank you." Sonic thanked.
"No problem, and my sisters said they are in love with you two." Selene added. "If you two break their hearts, I'll break your necks." Selene finished.
"You don't have to worry about us breaking their hearts." Shadow said with a small smile. After what had just transpired, Sonic and Shadow were thankful they were alive.
