Chapter 7: Sonic's Mansion

(At Boo Woods in the Mushroom Kingdom)

Sonic and Yoshi were crossing the forest and Yoshi was clinging to Sonic.

Sonic- Hey Yoshi, a little space please.

Yoshi let's go of Sonic.

Yoshi- Yoshi sorry! Yoshi scared of ghosts! This place called Boo Woods for reason!

A Boo tried to attack Sonic from behind, but without even turning around, Sonic punched the Boo in the head and it ran away. Then Sonic winked at Yoshi.

Sonic- I ain't afraid of no ghost.

Then Sonic heard his stomach rumbling and so was Yoshi's

Sonic- But I wouldn't mind some food. We should've gotten a chilidog before rushing into the woods.

Yoshi looked up in a tree and got Sonic's attention.

Yoshi- Look! Two apples!

Sonic- It will have to do, but we're definitely finding a place that serves chilidogs after we kick Bowser's ass.

Yoshi grabs the branch with his tongue and lowers it so Sonic to pick the apples. After they ate the apples, they continued moving through the Boo Woods.

Sonic- So what's this scientist's name?

Yoshi- Professor E. Gadd. He help Mario Brothers many times. He work in underground bunker lab in Boo Woods. Yoshi not know why he have lab here.

Eventually, Sonic and Yoshi find a little red bunker sticking out of the ground.

Sonic- Is this the place?

Yoshi- This Professor E. Gadd's place alright.

(Inside Professor E. Gadd's lab)

Sonic and Yoshi arrive in the lab and they was Professor E. Gadd riding some kind of remote controlled hover chair. Professor E. Gadd dashes the chair up to Yoshi.

Professor E. Gadd- What a surprise.

Professor E. Gadd turns his head and sees Sonic. Then he moves his chair in front of Sonic.

Professor E. Gadd- So this is the blue hedgehog that replaced Mario. Very intriguing.

Sonic- Before you invade any more of my personal space, how about we get to why we're here.

Yoshi- Sonic right. Bowser meanie kidnap princess and Luigi. Luigi always carry professor's ghost vacuum in case of another haunted mansion. Professor might track ghost vacuum.

Professor E. Gadd- Oh yes! My Poltergust 5,000! Sure, I can track it. I bug all my inventions in case they get stolen again. Been that way ever since Bowser stole my blueprints for that new aircraft. Let me just get on my computer.

Sonic- (thinks) This guy is even nuttier than Dr. Eggman! At least he's not evil like that egghead.

Professor E. Gadd let Sonic and Yoshi to his computer room as he moved his remote controlled hover chair to the computer and began trying to track the Poltergust 5,000 that Luigi had. Suddenly, an alarm went off and the computer showed an image of Boo's tearing his lab's power grid apart.

Professor E. Gadd- Oh no! Sonic, Yoshi, if you want me to find your friends, I need my power to stay on. Get rid of them now!

Sonic- Fine. Let's make this quick, Yoshi.

Yoshi- Uhhh…can Yoshi stay here and keep Profess E, Gadd company?

Sonic began moving towards the power grid while dragging Yoshi by his tail as Yoshi leaving claw marks on the floor.

Yoshi- NO! Yoshi no want fight ghosts!

Sonic- Tough beans, Yoshi. I'm not doing this alone.

Then Sonic and Yoshi went down a warp pipe that leads to the bottom floor of the bunker. Sonic and Yoshi arrived at the power grid and they had to move fast to stop the Boo's from destroying the place. Yoshi spent most of the time trying to hide while Sonic was fighting the Boo's. The Boo's might have been ghosts, but they were all knocked almost too easily with Sonic's light speed attack. After Sonic made all the Boo's flee, Yoshi came out of hiding.

Yoshi- Are all ghost gone?

Sonic- It looks that way, but sometimes things can be deceiving.

Suddenly, the ground began to shake as this Big Boo entered the area.

Yoshi- AAAAAH! Bigger Ghost!

Sonic puts his fist to his palm.

Sonic- Finally, something worth my time! Come on, Yoshi! Let's get'em!

Sonic tried his spin dash, but the Big Boo put its arms over its face, like it was trying to hide, and Sonic's spin dash went right through the Big Boo like he ran through a cloud.

Sonic- What the hell just happened?!

Yoshi- Some ghosts be untouchable in dark places. But they be solid in light.

Sonic- Now where am I going to get some light?

Sonic remembers the rings and stones he was still carrying.

Sonic- (Thinks) Should I dare risk it? If I use them, I'll produce some light, but I'll also be using up some of my rings and there aren't any rings here in the Mushroom Kingdom.

Suddenly, the Big Boo charged for Yoshi. Yoshi got so scared, he laid an egg bomb and threw it.

Yoshi- Ghost leave Yoshi alone!

When the egg bomb exploded, it made a flash of light and the Big Boo became solid. Sonic noticed this and took this opportunity to hit the Big Boo with a spin dash and knocked him away from Yoshi.

Yoshi- Thanks, Sonic!

Sonic- Yoshi, what was that you threw at that thing?

Yoshi- You mean Yoshi's egg bomb. Yoshi's of all genders lay eggs and use them for weapons.

Sonic- Well I need you to lay a few more. The flash from their explosion produces enough light for me to fight this guy.

Yoshi- Ok. Yoshi make more egg bombs.

Then Yoshi had an uncomfortable face on as he laid a few egg bombs. The Big Boo was coming after them again, but Yoshi threw all of the egg bombs at it and the explosions flashed the Big Boo so much, it went temporarily blinds as well as became solid enough for Sonic to hit with a homing shot and knock it out of the area.

Sonic- Good work, Yoshi. Almost thought I'd have to transform to produce light to fight that monster.

Yoshi- Sonic transform? Mario Brothers' transform too! Mario Brothers eat objects to gain super powers. Like fire flower makes them shoot fireballs or super feather give them magic flying cape.

Sonic- I can transform in a matter of speaking, but the way I do it is different.

Yoshi- How so?

Sonic pulls out a bunch of rings in his left hand and a shiny green stone in his right.

Sonic- Yoshi, this is a Chaos Emerald. Seven in total and I actually have all seven with me right now. I can use the Chaos Emeralds to transform into something truly amazing, but the Chaos Emeralds eat up my rings the longer I stay in that form. And I've noticed that rings don't exist in this world. So I can't refill my ring supply if I run out. Believe me, the result is unbelievable, but if I can't get any more rings, I should only use the Chaos Emeralds only when I need them.

Yoshi- Yoshi interested. Sonic transform for Yoshi, please!

Sonic- Unless I really do need to use the Chaos Emeralds, I will not. I only have so many rings and I might need them later.

(Back in Professor E. Gadd's computer room)

Professor E. Gadd began tracking the Poltergust 5,000 that Luigi still has in his possession when Sonic and Yoshi entered the room.

Professor E. Gadd- You're back and just in time. Now that the Boo's aren't attempting to destroy my power grid, I was able to track the Poltergust 5,000 to a castle Bowser recently built in Cool-Cool Mountain. That must be where Bowser took Luigi and Princess Peach.

Sonic- Finally! Alright Yoshi, let's go kick that dino brain's ass!
