Something new I thought I might add to my characters creation. I hope you like him. I don't own any part of Sonic or anything related to them. I do own Kit Kat the Cat, Katie Kat, Chaos Kat, Flip the Bird, Kate-Lyn, Reverto, parts of Mettaiah the Cat & Foo Manchu the Cat. But that doesn't mean that they'll all be in it.
Safe
(Flip POV)
I slowly regained conscious, I heard everyone scream. I slowly opened my eyes and saw what was coming for us. A bright light erupted from the tips of the fingers of the statues. I closed my eyes awaiting to be hit. I heard explosions, but yet they were not near us. I reopened my eyes to see the shots being fired down at the ground. I went a looked over the edge of the building from the sky. Robots are being destroyed around the monuments, both SWATBOTS and Egglites. Looks like they were just buying more time for themselves to charge up fully. Just then a barrage of missles came erupting from the sky and are aimed at one of the statues. All shots were on one area. At the base of the statue's left leg. It slowly began to fall over towards the last statue. C-4 was holding on to me barely. We were slowly descending to the roof top to where the others are at. The group was watching the powerful weapon fall.
"It's gonna hit the last one!" I cried out.
The others were startled by me but then they quickly returned their sights to the falling statue. Everything seemed to go to slow motion. Watching it fall.
*crash*
It missed it by what looked like only a few yards away. Everyone groaned in disappointment.
[Hey you guys you climbing aboard or what?] Tails called out to us.
"Yeah we're coming." Yoli replied.
Tails lowered to the edge of the building and C-4 opened the door. We all climbed in with C-4 being the last one to enter.
"Tails we got a problem." Rahn was talking to Tails in the cockpit.
If we don't stop that last statue, everyone in this area will be killed. I don't think that was the plan. Tails gave us a nod and returned his eyes to the open sky. Well not quite open. We still have a few dozen air ships flying about.
[This is aerial Swatbot number 2572. We have just eliminated the last of the enemy bogies out of air space. Awaiting further orders.] The open intercom system projected out.
"This is Tails here. I want all fighters to regroup. We are gonna hit that last statue with everything we got you hear?" Tails commanded.
[Alright Tails you take to the sky. I'm gonna help out the rest of our people on ground level.] I heard Sonic spoke on the radio waves.
"Okay Sonic. I'll take care of things from up..." Tails was interrupted by Knuckles and Rouge.
[We're sorry to say, but we've been knocked out of the sky and crash landed in the middle of the Egglite army. We're under heavy fire. Sonic if you're coming down here we need some help unfortunately.] Knuckles said with annoyance. He didn't want Sonic's help, but it looks like he'll need it.
I smiled a bit. If what I was told about Sonic and what I know about him so far, I could almost see him smiling through the air waves of the radio signals.
[Alright Knux, but you owe me a few dozen chilli dogs to get me warmed up when this is over.] I heard Sonic replied.
[WHAT!!! WHY I OUGHT A...] Knuckles screamed into his intercom.
[SONIC!! WAIT FOR ME!! I WANT TO HELP TOO!!] a high pitch voice echoed and even rumbled our plane.
[AHHH!!! AMY!!! NO!!!] Sonic screamed in fright.
I looked out the window and saw a pink jet chasing after a blue jet. I knew the blue one is Sonic, while the pink has to be Amy's.
[SONIC!!! WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS RUNNING AWAY FROM ME!!! YOU KNOW YOU LOVE ME!!!]
[LEAVE ME ALONE!!]
Tails quickly shut the signal to them off.
"I don't even want to hear this." I heard him say with a smirk, but it quickly turned serious when he spoke out again. "Calling all pilots. This is Tails commence attack run at the final target. Fire all missiles and wipe out final target. I repeat fire all missiles at final target, before it fires upon the building."
[Mission confirmed: Firing all available missiles at final target.] the voices of confirmation of orders rang through the intercom.
The group was still tense. We aren't quite out of the woods yet. Everyone took to their seats. Rahn, Yoli, and I took seated in turrets on the plane. C-4 and Drifter strapped themselves tightly to some hooks inside the aircraft and then opened the side doors. C-4 took out his weapons, as did Drifter. We didn't know if Eggman had more fighters out there, but we made precautions in doing so.
I could hear missiles being fired, and even see the missiles fly through the air to their targets. I watch their trail of smoke they left behind, leaving a mark of their path that they took. Every missile hit their targets right on. We did it!!! Everyone cheered on our plane even the radio waves cheered on from fellow fighters that weren't robots.
"Hang on something is not right. I'm still reading that the target is still charging up." Tails cried out.
"What!!" I heard C-4 and Drifter exclaimed.
"What's going on there?" I yelled to them.
"That thing is still charging up!!" C-4 informed us.
I couldn't believe it!! There had to be a hundreds of missiles that hit that thing. There's no way it could be still functioning. I quickly came down to the cockpit and sat next to Tails.
"Okay people, this is a whole new ball game. Prepare to fire another set of missiles at the target." ordered Tails.
[Sir, all missiles have been fired.] a robot informed us.
"What!?" Tails was surprised, though he shouldn't be. He did order everyone to fire everything they had at the target. Unfortunately it wasn't enough.
I looked at him. His head in his helmet remained still. The gleam of his visor seem to take a life of it's own as I watched. I knew he was in deep thought on what to do.
"Tails, what are we going to do?" I asked him.
The whole plane was quiet again, except for the sound of the radio waves and the wind blowing through the open door. I could see the others watching us from their spots. Drifter and C-4 holding on the side of plane door and their guns at their sides waiting for a reply. Rahn's and Yoli's head peeking out from their entrance of the turrets also awaiting for the plan.
"This is Tails to all air strike Swatbots. I want all of you to crash into the statue. That should stop it." Tails said with a worry tone.
[Affirmative sir.] a Swatbot replied.
Tails wasn't sure if this would work out. There is a lot of them it should finish the job.
[Tails sir, we have incoming bogies intercepting the others. We need to stop them!] someone said.
"I see them. Okay Freedom Fighters. Let's do it." Tails replied.
Tails redirected us and a small group of Freedom Fighters to the group of enemies. There were only about seventeen, if not more, ships attacking, but there are only eight of us. We were the ones who fired first taking down four ships. They quickly scattered and all of us went after them individually, except for one ship that stuck with us as we chased down three more ships. I took controls of the main gun of the plane and used the monitor in front of me to aim. I fired a few shots but missed. Our wingman fired and took out two ships.
[You gotta do better than that bird boy if you want to hit more than I do.] the voice spoke out.
It was Kate-Lyn.
"Give me a break. It isn't everyday I do this." I said defensively.
[Yeah, yeah. Watch a pro do this.] she said.
Before she could take out the last fighter I took a few more shots and was able to hit out of the sky. I cheered. Looking over I could see Kate-Lyn smirking at me while I replied with a grin of my own. I watched the others fighters take out the rest. Two came from behind us, but Yoli and Rahn popped them out of the sky before they can even aimed at us. One fighter had a problems taking losing a enemy fighter, but Drifter fired once and disabled the Egglite flying the plane and C-4 several times at the engines. To C-4's satisfactory it exploded with a bang. I heard him laughing at his work and gave Drifter a high five. Drifter just smiled at him as they exchanged high fives.
[WATCH OUT TAILS!] Kate-Lyn cried out.
I saw a enemy fighter plane flying, it fired a missile at us. Rahn and I were the only ones able to fire at the missles, but I couldn't get my gun around fast enough and Rahn shots are far behind it. He couldn't turn the turret fast enough to catch up. It was gonna hit us. Yoli fired on the fighter that shot at us and destroyed it, but that won't help the situation we are in.
"Tails we can't hit it. Get us out of here." I screamed as I continued my efforts to aim my guns at it.
"I'm trying, but it's too late!! It's going to hit us!"
I watched in horror as the missile came at us. I quickly turned to the others. Drifter and C-4 are trying to unhook themselves to either abandon ship as the rest of us were or trying to get to the other side of the plane to try to fire on it. I saw Yoli slide out of her turret to escape with the others. I even saw Rahn's feet beginning to peek out of his turret as he tries to leave. There wasn't enough time. My eyes returned to the missile. It was only about thirty, maybe forty metres away. Just then I saw Kate-Lyn's fighter fly up.
[Hey Flip, take care of your friend for me.] she spoke to me. Wait what did she mean take care of your friend, what is she...no...I watched her take her fighter and crash it into the missile.
"KATE-LYN!!" Tails and I screamed.
The fighter exploded and the impact of the explosion shook our fighter.
[Sir that was the last of the fighters.] A voice informed us.
I was still in shock. I couldn't believe that she sacrificed herself to save us. Tears came to my eyes. I turned my head to Tails and saw he too had tears of pain.
"What happened?" Yoli asked us.
She looked at us and saw the tears in our eyes.
"It was Kate-Lyn. She flew into the missile and took the hit for us. She...she didn't make Yoli." I said with as much strength as I could.
The others heard what I said and everyone stood silent.
[Sir! It worked. The readings on it shows that the weapon is powering down. We did it!!]
Tails sniffed back some tears and smiled a bit.
"Thank the king. Let's get out of here and help the others out." Tails talked to the Freedom Fighter.
[No need Tails, the last of the Egglites powered down as the monument powered down as well.] It was Sonic.
"Okay Sonic. We did it didn't we? Eggman's empire has finally fallen." Tails said with more spirit.
[Yeah Tails. We did it. Everyone did it Tails. Everyone is ready to celebrate. There's one more thing we have to do now though.]
"What's that?"
[Capture Eggman himself.]
"How? We don't even know where he is at right now."
[Don't worry about him he's gone.] A new voice joined in.
"Who's this?"
[This is Katie. I was monitoring the status when I came across some new movement away from the battle field. So I quickly intercepted him, but he got away. Some how he has the ability to travel through zones as well. I have another team on him already. He'll be placed in our jail here and will be awaiting punishment.]
"Katie? Hey good to hear yah. How are the others? Has Uncle Chuck been able to stop that virus?" Rahn asked.
[Uncle Chuck isn't the one who is stopping the virus. Some problems occurred and he had to shut himself down to fix himself. Julee and Sena are in there right now stopping the virus themselves.]
"What?!" Everyone except Tails exclaimed.
"Shouldn't you be watching them?" Rahn yelled out.
[Um...you better come see this for yourselves. I gotta be heading back anyways. I'll see you back there. You do have the antidote don't you?]
"Yeah we do." Yoli replied.
[Good. I want you back here right away. Head back to the first place you entered, you can exit from there. Katie out.]
Everyone was silent.
"Tails." Rahn started. "I'm sorry about Kate-Lyn. She was a very brave fighter and friend."
Tails just nodded.
"She was around helping the freedom fighters for a long time now. She was always there for us as we were for her. I don't know how the others are gonna handle this." He said to us.
We caught up to the others back at their home town. Everyone was celebrating the down fall of Eggman. Sonic and the others cheered us on.
"Hey little bro, why so glum? We finally won, and the best part is. We lost no one." Sonic said with a smile as he put his hand on Tail's shoulder.
"No Sonic. We did... lose someone." Tails sputtered out.
Sonic's hand slowly came off.
"What?" He whispered.
"We lost Kate-Lyn. She sacrificed herself to save me and the others in my plane."
There was silence in the entire town.
"Well, we should be happy Tails. She did it to save everyone. She wants us to be happy. We'll make a ceremony in her honour her." Sonic said with some tears in his eyes.
They all had lost a good friend today. Rahn told them that they will be back to join in the ceremony for Kate-Lyn. It was the least that we could do for her sacrifice. We shook hands with them and said are fare-wells for now.
Back at HQ, Katie prepared the antidote as we checked up on the others. When we entered the medical room, we saw the machine that is being used to help fight the virus. Julee and Sena are still hooked up to the machine, and the machine is still hooked up to Kit Kat. A monitor was added to see what is going on inside. I couldn't believe my eyes.
*the monitor*
"Would you please pass the sugar?" a polite voice asked.
"Certainly, Edward." Sena replied as she passed the sugar.
"Some more tea?" Asked Julee.
"No thank you. I still have to finish this one as you can tell. Although I could use another biscuit if you don't mind passing me some Kit Kat?" Edward asked.
"Certainly Edward. It is a relief though that you won't be destroying us." Kit Kat said passing a plate of biscuit.
"Yes. I'm certainly sorry for the trouble I have caused, but thanks to Sena and Julee I am a new virus. One that will help out." Edward continued to chat with the others.
*back to us*
I couldn't believe it. They stop the virus, but now they are having tea and biscuits with it. How did they do it?
"I'll be transferring the virus to us. It wants a body of its own, so I got some scientist working on that. I don't know what they did, but I don't care. The virus has stop it's destruction and it is fully rehabilitated." Katie told us.
I couldn't help laugh at this. The others quickly joined in. Julee and Sena returned back to their bodies and the virus was uploaded into a device. Uncle Chuck had already left with Dr. Quack. Apparently there is something back in their world that can fix him and put him back to working order. Kit Kat was fully healed. We told him of our adventure in the world we entered, and we was amazed at the dangers that they encountered to save him. He was very grateful. He then told us that we must go to the ceremony for Kate-Lyn. When we got there, the residents were amazed at the sight they saw when the saw Kit Kat. The ceremony went well and we all had fun at the party for the new found freedom they all gained. We said our fare-wells again and we returned back to HQ.
I then remembered something. Kit Kat was resting in his quarters and the others, including Katie were in the lounge. Katie was at a computer sending e-mails to the others about what had happen and that everything is alright now.
"Katie? I got a question for yah." I started out. Everyone looked at me.
"Yes?" Katie waited.
"Eggman said that he had sent you something important. What is it?"
Katie just sat there in shock and embarrassment. Everyone else remembered also, except for Julee and Sena.
"What are you talking about Flip?" Sena asked.
"Eggman told us that there was a secret about Katie and Kit Kat. I'm curious on what he had sent her." I replied. The others agreed. They too wanted to know what was the e-mail that he sent.
"I...I...I thought it wasn't true at first, but taking further examination in the Zone Cop data base. Eggman's e-mail is true." Katie told us.
"Well that isn't tell us much." Julee said taking a seat on the couch near Rahn.
"Well..." Katie held back.
"Just tell us Katie. We want to help out." C-4 said irritably.
"FINE!! Kit Kat and I are related. He's...my brother."
I don't believe it.
"Don't you tell him that yet. I want to tell him myself, but right now isn't the right time to tell him. Not in his condition. That's the end of that topic alright" she said firmly yet enough to tell us that if any of us did, she would hurt us so badly that even our kids would feel it's after affects.
We all agreed, but we still didn't agree on her decision.
Back home. Everything was back to normal. At least as normal as things get. Now that I'm a member of the WBM crew, maybe living here won't be so bad after all.
*THE END*
