This is where things are now going to get interesting...since there's going to be full of action packed scenes from this point on!!! :D
Dislclaimer: I don't own any of the Sonic Characters, as they all belong to SEGA. I only own the OC's in this story.
(Please Read and Review!!!)
"Ohh...what's going on? I can't even remember what happened...maybe I took a nastier beating than I thought with Galvador. All I can remember is that I went to bed...and then suddenly that dream popped into my head!! Something's not right here, cause after that, I was away from the Mystic Ruins, and all the way back in Station Square, fighting Shadow!! Just what is going on?!?! After that little moment with Shadow, everything blacked out again..."
"Somewhere in what used to be Station Square..."
Part of the city was all of a sudden run by Virals, as they had successfully infected the citizens of Station Square, and Sonic was the one who helped them all. It was 6:00 AM right about now, and our blue hedgehog was lying down in what appeared to be part of a bar. Sonic had looked completely wasted, as it looked like he was drinking alot for some reason; he was lying ontop of a pool table, making it looked as if he was drunk last night. Not only that, but it looked like he was holding onto a bottle of wine. His eyes had slowley started to open, before he started to look at his surroundings.
"Where am I...and WHAT am I wearing?!" Sonic exclaimed, after noticing he was wearing a boy scout uniform; he quickly ripped it off. "I thought I was at Tails' place. Maybe I was sleepwa..." he stopped, after noticing how bad the place looked; the glass was broken, the walls were shredded, and not to mention there were a few black spots all around the area. "Something's not right here..." he said, before walking out of the bar; BIG MISTAKE.
Right when Sonic had exited the building, he was absolutley shocked to see what was going on. The skies were dark and cloudy, and many city blocks were in ruins, as it looked like there was more than just a few Virals from before. Not only that, but even the streets looked deserted, and not to mention there were explosions coming from uptown; Sonic had found himself all the way downtown for some reason. Sonic just ignored this, and decided to run through the deserted streets of Station Square.
"Where is everyone?" Sonic asked, while noticing that even the buildings around him looked deserted. Sonic had almost thought that maybe some infection was going on, before that was until it hit him. "The infection...BEGINS!!!!" was all Sonic could remember Galvador shouting, before the nest had exploded yesterday. "Galvador must be behind this!!" he exclaimed, before running even faster, as a blue aura surrounded the blue hedgehog; he was going really fast, before breaking the sound barrier.
Before Sonic was about to get to the commotion, a group of Virals had appeared in front of him. Few of them looked human, while the other looked mobian; this meant that they were infected. Sonic was getting ready to fight these things, before hearing a loud roar. Before he knew it, a big familiar Viral had appeared in front of the other ones; it created a crater in the ground, before looking at Sonic.
"Glad to see your awake." Galvador said, before walking up to him; Sonic stood his ground while he was in a fighting stance. "Now is that anyway to treat your kind?" he said playfully, while the other Virals behind him were snarling and possibly drooling also. "Besides, your a little too close to one of our Nests, so I think it's best that you head the other direction." he said, before pointing at the other street.
"Nests?" Sonic asked, before Galvador nodded. "...Not if I stop this nonsense!! Your going WAY too far with this, Galvador!!" he shouted, before pointing at him.
"That's not what you said last night." Galvador said seriously; Sonic looked confused. "You don't remember? Maybe I should mention that you helped us infect the citizens earlier, and also you took down the Ultimate Lifeform!!" he explained, before the other Virals roared in agreement; Sonic had widened his eyes.
"Your...your lying!!" Sonic exclaimed, until Galvador had pointed at a broken down electronics department that had a few tv's that were still intact.
"Am I, now?" Galvador noted, before it showed what happened earlier; Sonic was downright shocked at what he was watching. "Face it...your one of us now..."
But before Galvador knew it, Sonic had used a homing attack on the beast. Unfortunatley he grabbed the blue blur in the air, and threw him directly into the ground, causing a little crater to form. Galvador knelt down to the beaten blue hedgehog, while the other Virals had closen in.
"If that's how it's going to be..." Galvador hissed, before getting up. "Then so be it...traitor!!" he finished, before jumping away from the scene; the Virals had closen in on Sonic.
Right when they had crowded around him with hungry looks, they were immedietly swatted away from the black quills of Viral Sonic. As far as Sonic would know: like Galvador, these things weren't going to give up easily, as they had come running towards him while slashing their claws. Sonic had dodged and blocked every attack, before jumping over them and grabbing one in the air. Right when Sonic did a flip, he quickly threw the Viral at the crowd, as they had crashed into the ground. And just as predicted, they just kept coming. And just like Sonic's Viral abilities, they stretched their arms at an enormous length, before swiping Sonic towards the side of a building. Once the black hedgehog had gotten out from the rubble, he quickly ran towards them and performed a few spin dashes while using his quills as spikes. A few of them were flying all around the block, but no matter what happened, they always kept getting up.
"Man, knocking these guys down is easy," Sonic mentioned, after dodging a few whips and claws. "It's getting them to STAY down that might be a little tricky!"
And so more of these things just kept coming and coming, until suddenly Sonic had come up with an idea.
"Maybe I don't have to keep them down..." he grinned, before focusing his energy to form red particles. "I just have to make sure they LOSE!!" he finished, before a red orb had appeared in his hands again. Right when the creatures had gotten close to him, Sonic had placed his hands back. "VIRAL...WIND!!!" he shouted, before firing the red orb.
The force of the attack was so strong, that it sent all the Virals along with a few empty cars and a few street lights flying 8 miles away, and into the coastlines!! After the Virals were gone, Sonic had quickly changed back to his regular blue color. After noticing what had happened to this part of the city, he knew that Galvador had succeeded in his infection, so he had to find his friends and see if they were still okay. But first he had to deal with these "nests" Galvador had mentioned earlier. Little did he know, that he was being followed by a certain hawk that was infected, as he was flying in the air.
"How could you just betray us like that?!" Viral Jet exclaimed, before a big evil smile spreaded across his eyeless face. "I never liked you that much, anyways. So now I'll have the pleasure of tearing you to peices!!" he finished, while still following the blue hedgehog.
"Meanwhile, at Tails' Workshop..."
Tails, Amy, Rouge, Knuckles, Omega, and the other Babylon Rogues were all gathered in the living room, as they were discussing about this Viral crisis. Wave and Storm still didn't know what happened to Jet, but everyone knew what Sonic had done. It was a good thing Shadow had learned a special healing ability which wasn't strong enough to heal him completely, otherwise he'd still be at the hosptital; not a very safe place to be when you've got infected monsters attacking the city. Everyone was devestated at what Sonic did, especially Amy.
"How could Sonic do something like that?" Wave asked. "We don't like him that much, but even we have to admit that's low."
"It's that Viral that's been causing all of this." Rouge exclaimed.
"I know. But Sonic should've listened to us in the first place." Tails explained. "There's still a chance we can get rid of the Viral he still wears with this!" he said, before pulling out the small device he made earlier. "All we have to do is get Sonic close enough to the device, and then one I activate it, the Viral will soon lose it's energy to control him!"
"But there's one small problem."
When everyone looked near the doorframe, Eggman himself was standing there with a few robots behind him.
"Eggman!!" Everyone shouted in unison.
"Don't be alarmed, I was called here by Shadow." Eggman said, while everyone looked at Shadow, as he nodded. "The problem is that once you cure Sonic, how will you be able to help everyone else?"
This question left everyone to ponder for a moment, before Storm suggested something.
"Why not try to build a bigger one?" he asked; everyone had widened their eyes at hearing this, when Tails and Eggman bot looked at eachother and smiled.
"That might work! If we try to build a bigger sound generator, it might be powerful enough to stop all of those Virals at once!" Tails exclaimed; everyone facefaulted at Storm's great idea.
"Yes, but unfortunatley we don't have the time." Shadow said; everyone looked at him with a worried look. "Sonic's probably leading a squad by now, and Galvador's already infecting the citizens at an alarming fast rate. If we don't hurry, then by tomorrow we'll lose the city. And then probably within a week...the world."
"Wait...I have some machine components that are back at my base!" Eggman pointed out. "If we make into the park, we'll be able to build it within a few hours!"
"But how will we get through the city, with those things running around?" Wave asked, before a big ship appeared outside the workshop.
"By air!" he grinned; everyone quickly ran into the ship. "How do these kids do it these days?" he asked, before running after them into the ship.
"Back at Station Square..."
Sonic was still running through the streets, while he was still unaware that Jet was still following him through the skies. Jet however wanted to make sure Sonic didn't get near the nests, so he decided to call for a few more Virals earlier. And just as predicted, a few black dots were in the air, as they kept getting closer and closer. When they got closer, they were Virals that had creepy bat wings for some reason.
"Make sure that Traitor stays aaway from the nest!" Jet commanded; the Virals nodded, before they all started diving down towards the blue hedgehog.
Right when they had gotten close, Sonic had quickly jumped off from the ground, while he twirled around and did a full roundhouse kick on one of the Virals, sending it rolling across the street. When Sonic had landed back on the ground, he immedietly ran for it, since he knew that he had to destroy these nests. But unfortunatly, one of the Virals had grabbed him off the ground, and into the air as they tried to scratch and bite him. Before they had a chance, Sonic had quickly curled into a ball, and had performed a spindash, causing the Viral that was still holding onto him to fly towards the other Virals. When Sonic changed to Viral Sonic, he used his quills to grab hold of the Virals, and the side of the building he was able to catch before falling. Right when he had the chance, Sonic had quickly let go of the building, and pulled his quills down into the street, as the Virals together created a small crater into the ground, sending them unconscious.
"Seriously, these guy's are starting to annoy me now." Sonic said irritated, before changing blue again, and running off into an opening in the streets. "Oh...my...Chaos..." Sonic gasped, before noticing something really big.
What he saw, was a really large black blob that was attached to all the sides of the buildings, as it showed a few giant sprouts growing through the buildings, and into the ground; this had to be one of the nests Galvador mentioned earlier. When Sonic had started to walk towards it, to get a better veiw...
"That's far enough, traitor!" Jet shreiked, before flying down towards him; Sonic jumped out of the way just in time. "There's only one way you can get near this nest, and it's getting through me!!"
"Jet, you have to stop this!" Sonic called. "This isn't like you, it's the Viral that's controlling you! You have to get rid of it!" he said, before noticing Jet was coming towards him with his razor sharp wings. "I don't wanna fight you, Jet!" he said, after dodging Jet's attack.
"Too late, traitor!!" Jet shouted, before going for a few more swipes; Sonic was still dodging them, but he wasn't able to block the kick he got in the chest. "You don't deserve to be one of us if you're going against our own kind!!" he said, after placing his wing near his neckline, and before noticing a black blob had fallen from the nest in the background. "...However...maybe I won't have to finish you off myself." he grinned, before letting Sonic get up.
"What are you talking about?" Sonic raised a brow.
"Vludge!!! Finish this traitor off!!!" Jet screamed, before flying away from the scene, and going after what appeared to be a ship in the sky. "Just wait, Traitor!!! He only lives by one motto: Destroy or be Destroyed!!!"
"Vludge?" Sonic asked, before hearing something dripping behind him.
When Sonic turned around to see what was moving, he was suddenly swatted away from something, and into a street light. After the blue speed demon had gotten up, before his eyes, there stood a 7 foot tall Viral, that looked human, and had huge black claws, and dull yellow eyes that looked menacing. And before he knew it, the creature had let out a roar that seemed to echo abit.
"Something tells me it ain't gonna be easy from this point on." Sonic warned himself, before dodging a claw that had stretched out towards him, and sliced the street light in half. "Okay...it's not gonna be easy at ALL."
And before he knew it, the beast had swung it's claws at Sonic, but he was lucky enough to dodge them abit, before jumping into the air. Right when he was in the air, he curled into a ball and performed a homing attack on the beast. But right when he made contact, it had completely bounced off from the beast, sending Sonic to fall back on his feet.
"Okay, that's a problem." Sonic said to himself, before changing into Viral Sonic.
He quickly ran towards Vludge, and used his quills to grab it. Once he got hold of it, he quickly threw it back into the ground. But once it hit the ground, it splattered like ooze, as it suddenly showed that there wasn't any trace of a body within the creature. And before he knew it, the ooze had suddenly formed into a blob, as it started to move a little faster towards Sonic. Right when it got close, it morphed back into Vludge, and thrusted it's fist into Sonic's face, sending him flying towards a brick wall. Once Sonic had gotten out from the rubble, Vludge had stretched his claw out and grabbed him.
Sonic was trying to break free from the creature's grasp, but it was no use, as Vludge had slammed Sonic into the ground, and threw him all the way up to the rooftops of a building. After the black hedgehog had got up, the beast had stretched it's whole body up to him, and thrusted his fists into the roof, causing a hole to appear. Without anything to hold him back, Sonic had used his quills to stab them into the beast, but unfortunately they just bounced off, as Vludge swatted him away again.
"Now I'm really getting pissed." Sonic cursed, before using a spindash while using his quills; once again the attack had bounced off. "Is there ANYTHING that can kill this thing?!" he asked, before running away from the creature.
Before he knew it, the Vludge had stretched it's claw after the black hedgehog, and had successfully caught him. Sonic was quickly reeled back to meet with the creature, before remembering the other ability Sonic had. Without looking away from the creature's eyes, he quickly focused his energy, before a few red particles appeared in his hand. Before the Vludge knew it, Sonic had focused his energy into a red orb, and had gotten it to glow even brighter.
"VIRAL...WIND!!!" Sonic shouted, before releasing the Viral energy into the beast's chest, sending it flying 8 miles away! "Man...I have a feeling that thing's going to come back again. At least it's gone for now." he said, before walking back to the nest. "Now how do I stop this thing?"
"Easy...you just have to consume it."
Right when Sonic looked around...no one was there. Not a single body was showing itself, as Sonic was looking everywhere for it.
"Where are you?!" Sonic demanded.
"I'm right here, stupid." When Sonic had looked down to his stomach, he was absolutley shocked to see that there was another mouth! "What? You've never seen a Viral talk to you before?"
"Wait...are you?" Sonic asked.
"Yes. I am the Viral you've been wearing for quite a while, and I gotta say it's fun being with you." the Viral replied.
"Hang on...then what were you doing last night?!?!" Sonic asked.
"Well uh...to put it short story: Galvador and I have been having fun, and then suddenly he went a little too far with the whole taking over the world deal." it explained boredly; Sonic just rolled his eyes.
"I meant why was I wearing a boy scout uniform?" Sonic glared at his stomach.
"I was a little too drunk, and I can't remember a few things on what happened..." the Viral said sheepishly. "By the way, Mac. My name's Viral Sonic, since I'm you after all."
"I'm Sonic the--"
"Yeah yeah, I already know who you are, and what your capable of." Viral Sonic said nonchalantly; Sonic just grumbled. "Now enough chit chat, destroy the nest by focusing your energy!"
And so, Sonic had stood in front of the giant nest, and had focused alot of his energy. Before he knew it, his quills started stretching out to the nest, and had stabbed into them. The next thing he knew, was that red energy was coming from the Viral Nest, and into Sonic's body. The black hedgehog started to yell in pain, but he knew there was no turning back now. Right when he was sucking alot of energy from the Nest, it had started to shrivel up a little, meaning that it was getting weak. Right when Sonic's body was glowing red...
"VIRAL...CLEANSER!!!!" he shouted, before firing a huge red energy blast towards the nest.
Right when it made contact, the entire thing had exploded, as alot of Viral ooze was flying everywhere. When the ooze had landed, the Virals themselves had withered away.
"See? What'd I tell you?" Viral Sonic grinned, before Sonic himself turned blue again. "Now the only way we're to stop this war, is that we destroy the nests Galvador's created, and stop him last!"
"But how do I know I can trust you?" Sonic asked suspiciously.
"You don't." Viral Sonic said simply. "All I want is to have much fun, so right now...you're now in full control over me."
"...Fine. I'll keep you just abit longer. But if you try anything stupid, I'll get Tails to seperate us!" Sonic explained firmly, before running off into the distance, unaware that the Vludge had appeared again, except only it was much smaller.
"And so...I made a new partner." Sonic narrated, before it showed Galvador standing at the tallest building where the very first nest was. "I didn't know what else this creature would be capable of...all I know was that I needed him to stop this invasion. How wrong was I..." he finished, before it showed Galvador laughing triumpintly, while an army of Virals were attacking the citizens and GUN troops.
And so there you have it!! That Vludge looks like it's making another appearance again.....O.O.....
