Welcome to Mobius!
Chapter 7 – Central City Part 1
Bedwyr's Escape into the City
As Sonic, Tails, and Bedwyr relaxed in the Tornado II en route to Angel Island, Tails suddenly turned the plane around and exclaimed, "Darn, I forgot to pick up a new airplane part I ordered for the Tornado I! You guys wouldn't mind if I stopped for it would you?"
"Why would we mind?" shouted Sonic over the sound of the wind since he was hanging on to the edge of the wing after Tails' abrupt turn. "What city is it?"
"… Central City…"
"… Oh, THAT city…"
"What's wrong with Central City?" asked Bedwyr.
"Well, that city is the Capital of the United Federation," started Tails, "the human government on South Island. Central City actually encompasses many sub-cities such as Station-Square, Speed & Radical Highway, Sonic's 'City Escape', and the actual Central City downtown. To the average person/Mobian it seems like a nice city, but…"
"After all the crazy stuff we've been through in that city, we've grown to honestly dislike it a bit," finished Sonic. "Oh look, here we are…"
As Bedwyr looked below he saw a nice city with several people, cars, and roads on long downward slopes. In the distance he saw a variety of highways and large red-orange bridges leading to an urban jungle of dark skyscrapers. "The middle area seems dark, but the rest seems perfectly fine to me…"
"Looks can be deceiving… I've had to escape from the city below us when GUN tried to basically run me over and fight Shadow when he was evil near Radical Highway. Tails had to chase the President down another route, and Knuckles had to go into the sewers of the city and another time help out Shadow find bombs to disable them in the actual Central City."
"All that in just one city?"
"Well it was over the period of more than one adventure, but yeah. Where in the city do you have to go Tails?"
"Unfortunately the actual Central City…"
"If you don't mind I'll show Bedwyr the nice part of the city!" shouted Sonic as he randomly jumped out of the Tornado II.
Bedwyr looked down with shock and hesitated for a moment, but then he stood up while Aquarion was saying, "Sir Bedwyr, don't you dare jump from this altitude! Bedwyr? Bedwyr stop! Oh for Nimue's saaake!"
While Tails went into the depths of Central City, Sonic showed Bedwyr around the downward slopes of the nicer area which he enjoyed running down on. However, Sonic got a bit carried away in his speed as a radio-style voice called out, "HALT SONIC THE HEDGEHOG FOR SPEEDING IN A 45MPH ZONE!"
"Ugh, not GUN again… Bedwyr, get ready for a lesson in speed!"
"What do you…"
"What in the name of Camelot is that contraption of blasphemy?" shouted Aquarion abruptly as the infamous GUN Truck appeared.
"That would be the GUN Truck, an oversized vehicle that is bent on catching me to issue… About 9,000 Speeding tickets now?"
"IT'S 9,001 TICKETS! DON'T YOU THINK YOU CAN GET AWAY THIS TIME HEDGEHOG!"
"Sweet over 9,000! Heh, but seriously follow my lead and we'll escape from the city ok?"
"I suppose so Knight of the Wind…"
Sonic boosted ahead while Bedwyr switched into Cavalier-Form with the GUN truck in pursuit. At first it appeared that they would leave it in their wake as they went down the various slopes, but the GUN truck had surprisingly improved its agility from the last run in with Sonic as it was able to keep up with them around every corner, eventually catching up to Bedwyr. "Up ahead use Aquarion to slash that Speed-Shoe canister!" shouted Sonic as he noticed Bedwyr was falling behind.
"OK!" replied Bedwyr as he did so and received a burst of speed, leaving the GUN truck to eat their dust. "Oh yeah! I can see why you like rolling around at the speed of sound Sonic; it feels like nothing is holding you back!"
As they crossed the bridge of Radical Highway Aquarion added, "That's much better… Sir Sonic, shouldn't we return to Sir Tails?"
"I would but… I forgot where the store was in Central City…"
"WHAT?" shouted Bedwyr & Aquarion in unison.
"It doesn't matter, we should find it soon…"
"Not that," interrupted Bedwyr, "THAT!"
Bedwyr pointed behind them as the GUN truck had deployed extremely large rockets as well as a multitude of GUN Beetles.
"I SAID STOP HEDGEHOG!"
"Oh damn, GUN's serious this time…" muttered Sonic as he Boost-Attacked a group of GUN Beetles. Through the compressed streets of Central City Sonic & Bedwyr ran while being chased by the GUN Beetles & GUN Truck (GUN issued a warning to the people of the area by now to avoid the massive wreckage). Sonic forced himself to maintain a boost while Bedwyr relied on commanding multiple Aqua-Cannons from Aquarion.
"Well you always wanted to find me better training for my Soul-Surges," exclaimed Bedwyr after his 10th Aqua-Cannon, "Happy now?"
"Sarcasm is so unbecoming Sir Bedwyr, now where did Sir Sonic run off to?" Bedwyr halted as he noticed none of the GUN Beetles were after him anymore. Furthermore, he couldn't see Sonic or the large GUN truck. "This is not a good sign…"
"I'll have to agree with you on that one Aquarion…"
Author's Note: As the title implies this is another multi-chapter event as Bedwyr is lost in a city that he has no clue about. Hope you'll enjoy this next bit in the story!
I've closed the Story Poll and even with the few votes I've decided on the Sonic & Pokemon Crossover. I've had it in the making for a month now, but I've recently just started to try & make the first chapter or two. However I've run into a snag of deciding which trainers from the Pokemon games to use, so I've made another poll. More details will be in the Poll, so please check that! :)
