Chapter ten: Spinning and aliens
O
"Moontooth's" POV
10 years in the future...
"Stop it right there!"
Aw shit! G.U.N! And they got "Adnihilos" with them! Crap.
"Quickly dad!" I shout as I try my best to keep going.
We gotta get out of her... if they catch us it's so long Earth...
Stupid government thinks if they let the "Adnihilos" use G.U.N. They wont destroy our planet...
Retards.
"Dajh, Ancientz!" I hear the "Adnihilos" say as they shoot their beams towards us.
I can't even describe those things... think of a giant parasite mixed with a ghost.
That's an "Adnihilo", a demon.
I leap off the rooftop for safety, pointing my arm towards the next building.
Oh right... I don't need the grappling hook...
I got wings now.
Roger "Moon" Woodstock's POV
"Present" time.
I look down the hole that I apparently have to go through... and I look at it with disgust.
I wish I got wings so we could fly through it.
"You gotta go in there." Artemis say, crossing her arms with a smirk.
"Let me get this straight..." I say to her, frowning at what she wanted me to do. "That hole leads to a passage to the next area, right?"
"Yup." She says, nodding.
"But this area happens to be like a... pinball machine?" I ask her, chuckling to prove the sayings idiocy.
"Aha."
…
"How exactly am I gonna get through that shit...?"
"Just spin in."
Yeah right...
"I'm not Sonic the hedgehog... hell, I don't even know how he can do it!" I shout at her, furious about this really REALLY idiotic path!
"We need to find the Time Stones and we need to get through that pinball machine, spin to a ball."
"How?"
"It's like this..." Artemis says, pushing my head down. "Crouch, alright?"
"Okey...?"
"All the way, Moony."
"And th- wait, Moony?"
She giggled at my question for some reason, this making me highly annoyed...
"It's your new nickname, cute huh?"
"Yeah sure whatever... then what?"
"You gotta curl together more..." She attempts to push me down more, this giving my bones a giant pain! "Try grabbing your feet."
"Aow! Stop pushing." This is too much... I need to move!
"Stay still! Maybe if we use your tail as a rope to keep you round..."
"What? AOW!"
Okey that's enough lady! Wait... I'm trying my best to move but... argh! I can't!
"Yup, round enough." A giggle leaves her lips, my frustration growing even bigger...
"Have fun!"
And with that she kicks me into the hole, watching me roll into the distance.
I'm gonna kill her!
I can't stand this rolling! This passage seems to never end! I'm getting dizzy...
Hey is that rings? O oh!
As I thought! The impact whit those three rings just made me roll faster! Shit!
Oh great an exit...
BUMPER!
"Aow!" Oh crap another one! "Shit!" Damn it, the first one again! "FUCK!"
I can't stand this! I feel the pain every time I bump into those things. I just wanna get out of here and do what we came for!
Oh noes, here comes another passage to roll through...
I hate you Artemis! Okey fine... that's a lie, I just met her... but still!
I sigh in relief as the passage finally ends, sending me flying down towards another one of those damn bumpers.
The impact just... it's annoying enough to get hit by the thing, but the feeling when I am being sent up into the air...
Ah crap! There's spikes on the roof! Why was that bumper even there?
Quickly! I gotta get out of this ball form!
Gah! I'm trying my best, but my bones ain't responding! I can't stop being curled up!
How does Sonic get through this...?
I quickly look around my surroundings, trying to find a way to not get killed by the spikes...
The wall! Yes! If I manage to at least let a leg out of this position I should be able to kick myself back down to the floor!
Okey... come on leg... respond...
I'm doing my best, but the damn leg just wont respond!
Come on!
I suddenly feel a feeling of freedom in my left leg as I feel how it kicks the wall, sending me towards the floor.
Just need to do a nice landing!
Wait...
The speed sends me so fast towards the floor I don't even get a chance to react!
And... ARGH!... that impact with the floor...
Ouch.
That hurt...
At least I'm out of that curling position...
Okey... I walk through this next passage and...
What do I see? Another one of those things... designed to send me further into this deathtrap called a pinball machine...
Just great... uuh...
That took some time... jikes.
I gasp for air as I climb up the last part of the machine... oh the fresh air... I got out...
"That took some time. Had fun?"
That voice...?
No...
I look up as I do my best to get on my feet. And yup, there she is. Artemis...
"How the hell did you get here?" I ask her, crossing my arms.
"Now did you know..." She says as she tilt her head, placing a finger on her lips to give a "cute" effect. "I can actually teleport, and I forgot. Silly me!"
She smiles "innocently" at me as I simply growl in return. I'm getting enough of this...
So I begin to walk, hoping this will have a quick end.
"Oh, don't be like that Moony." She continues, placing a hand on my back. "I was just teasing with you like couples do."
Wait what?
"What what?" She asks, both her eyebrows being raised.
"You just called us a couple..." I say, raising an eyebrow myself.
"Oh Moon, I don't know what to say!" She giggles at me, giving me a slight push. "We just met and all..."
Woah, I am SO getting out of here...
"Huh? W-wait! Wait Moony!"
Now I know how Sonic felt...
Suddenly an U.F.O. Flew past our heads, a purple one too.
"The hell...?" I say as I look at it.
"Oh! That's one of the old bad guys Eggguy built!" Artemis says, pointing at the U.F.O. "I think it was built to catch the Time Stones. Let's crush it!"
And with that said the random girl runs towards the U.F.O., her sword in her hands.
I chuckle, this girl is random and that is just the half of it...
"Die alien scum!" She yells, jumping up and down trying to slash the space ship thingy with her sword.
"Heh, I thought it was a robot built by the professor." I simply say, following her.
"Yah, but a girl can always have a dream about fighting aliens!" She says, smiling at me.
"You like fighting?" I ask, crossing my arms.
"Hell yeah!" She says cheerily, striking a random sword pose. "Different from other girls I LOVE action! Especially on movies. Have you ever seen all the Die hard movies at the same time? Wow, what a rush you get!"
Oh...key?
"What do you mean okey?" She says, crossing her arms and pouts. "You think I'm weird, right?"
"No I don't think you're weird..." I tell her, trying to convince her I don't feel anything bad about her.
But yeah, she is odd.
"You're the odd one!"
"Just kill the 'alien', please?"
"YAY!" She says, slashing the spaceship into half which causes it to blow up and leave a box behind.
"What's inside?" I ask as I walk over to it.
Wait... is that a TV? Showing a pair of gray shoes...?
"Crush the TV and the item becomes real!" Artemis says.
The way she acts was different for some hours ago... she was acting professional the time we meet and now...
She acts like a little school girl.
But I chose to follow her crazy demands, and crush the TV with my food.
A bright flash suddenly comes from my feet, replacing my boots with some kind of gray sneakers!
The shoes from the TV screen? How?
"You really gotta get out of the city more." Artemis says with a chuckle as she shrugs. "These kind of stuff is things Sonic sees everyday!"
"So what do I do with the magic shoes of destiny...?" I ask her, raising an eyebrow.
"Wow, that sounds cool. Heh. Well they give you speed for a limited time! So go kill some more U.F.O.'s!"
Wait, there's more of them?
And yes, apparently there is! I can see some more purple space ships flying towards me.
Great... this isn't even a real task, these things got no guns!
"Sorry, but I think Sonic got rid of all the tough enemies when he was her last time... heheh." Artemis says, chuckling again.
"Great..." I simply say as I begin to ruuuu- holy crap this is fast!
And I like it! It feels like I can go anywhere at any speed!
Wait... can I possibly...?
Yes! I can spin dash! Yes!
"Okey. Every six of those spaceships are broken and my magic shoes of speed are gone... what now?"
Artemis simply points at one of the wrecked U.F.O.'s, a bright blue light coming from the inside.
I slowly walk over to the remains of the machine and pull my hand down, grabbing the shining object.
"Yay! We found a Time stone!" She shouts cheerfully, jumping up and down.
Heheh... I gotta say I do like her happy attitude more then the creepy one.
"I'm not creepy!"
Oh god, sword! Sword!
SWORD!
