YES! I'm back! And finally continuing the story! Big apology for taking so long. Inexcusable, I know. But hope you're still with me on this. And now, the long awaited next chap: Chapter 10!
"CHAAAAARRRRRGE!!!"
"ATTAAAAAAAAACK!!!"
The calls of each side roared through the air, as the united robotic resistance stormed to the gate of Metal City, and the followers of Gamma Catalyst began the interception charge. Sonic, Amy, Mighty, Lupe, Scyzor, and Krystal, with Radian in front of them, lead their army of robot Freedom Fighters to battle!
"Look out everyone!" Mighty pointed ahead. "We got company! BIG company!"
Everyone ran faster as Gamma's forces came toward them in numbers greatly surpassing their own.
"Keep runnin'! Don't stop!" called Sonic. "We can take them!"
"So you always say" answered Amy by his side.
Suddenly, the two stampeding forces collided! The resistance warriors clashed metal to metal with their opposing enemies like to waves slamming together in the ocean. Radian's men drew their weapons; swords, guns, lasers, and everything else they had, and proceeded turning the dark colored assassins into scrap metal!
"Yeah! Take them all out, men!" Radian called back, as he too took apart his foes. "Let none keep us from getting in!"
Sonic and Amy stuck together backing each other up and forcing back the black army. Mighty had no problem clearing the way using his matchless strength, while Lupe used her stealth-like tactics to move swiftly past all her opponents. Scyzor and Krystal also stuck together, firing away with their laser pistols.
"We're almost through the gate!" Krystal shouted to her team.
Radian suddenly jumped up from the crowd lifting his blade high, and with swift speed and shock to all, came crashing down to the ground! The force of his plummet stunned the large black group of bots before them. Just as he wanted, Radian then to a large swipe with his sword, and with its seismic force, pushed back at least one hundred of the oppressing forces back and out of sight!
Sonic looked up at what he had done.
"Hey! A clear path!" he noticed. "Nice one Goldie!"
Radian turned back to him. "Now GO! Get yourselves to the tower! We'll take care of all these clods in our way!"
Sonic grinned and nodded. "NOW!"
At the sound of his signal, Amy, Mighty, Lupe, Scyzor, and Krystal all grabbed hold of each other.
"Hang on!"
Sonic revved up his feet in his usual pavement burning fashion, and sprinted through the crowd of Gamma's men! Every one they came to were either forced back by his sonic boom speed, or broken to pieces on contact. They didn't stand a chance!
"Good thing I'm getting used to this," Scyzor started, "Or else my bolts would've rattled off my shattering body by now!"
"Stay with us, Scy!" Sonic called.
Suddenly, Amy's eyes spotted something above them. Well, a lot of somethings. She found multiple gun-toting black bots hiding themselves up on top of the many buildings in their path.
"Sonic! Look out above!" she warned.
Looking up, Sonic found them as they started firing. 'TSEEEWWWW!' 'TSEEEWWWW!'
Acting quickly, he began his old-fashioned zigzag maneuver avoiding each blast from them.
"They pulled out the stops for us this time!"
"I am getting dizzy!" Mighty said as the zigging and zagging waved them all around like a kite tail.
"Suck it up, 'dillo!" Lupe snapped. "Now's NOT the time!"
"Focus, guys!" Sonic called back, "There it is!"
Sonic and the others spotted Gamma's dark Tower in the center of the Metal Metropolis Zone. The entrance was coming ever closer to them every millisecond.
"Mighty! You're up!"
"Gotcha, fearless leader!
Mighty grabbed Scyzor's hand tightly, and with one quick and powerful throw, Mighty was flying straight toward the closed gate with his fists jetting out in front of him!
"YEEEEEEEEHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
'BAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMM!'
Mighty bashed the gateway down like a cannon ball! Sonic finally put on his breaks and let everyone back on the ground.
"Nice one buddy! I can't believe it really worked…" Sonic complimented.
Mighty sweat dropped. "And yet you threw me knowing it might not have…?"
Amy smiled. "Ah, forget it. Now we can get in and take that creepapalooza down!"
But just before they began to storm in… 'BAM!' 'BAM!' 'BAM!' 'BAM!' The vibrating force of what felt like giant footsteps approached from inside. Peering into the darkness, the team watched as a giant, round bodied mecha stepped out from the entrance. Its hands formed to unfriendly pointing cannons as it shifted its gaze to Scyzor and Krystal.
"Scanning……Scanning……Banished citizens of G-79. Orders: Terminate!"
"EEEK!" Krystal shrieked as the mecha leveled one of his cannon arms to her. 'BOOOOM!'
"No you don't!" Scyzor acting on instinct alone leaped in a horizontal dive pushing Krystal out of the way! 'BLAST!'
The explosion hit the pavement in a great burst of fire and dust. Amy stared shocked.
"SCYZOR! KRYSTAL!"
The dust quickly settled, and the view was clear. Scyzor was lying with Krystal on the ground just inches from the blast mark. Before the mecha cold try again, he whipped out his laser gun, and fired right in the center of its optic visor.
'TSEEWWW!' 'BLAAAAMM!' And it blew to pieces.
Sonic grinned amazed. "Nice shot, Scy!"
Krystal focused her pink eyes at her partner.
"You save me!" she said thankfully.
Scyzor quickly picked her up. "Hey, that's what best friends do…"
Mighty looked back into the entry hall.
"Hate to spoil your little 'only us' moment S and K, but it looks like that big guy had friends!"
Everyone saw a large group of the same round, cannon armed mechas coming from inside the tower. Sonic got ready to fight, but Scyzor suddenly jumped in front of him.
"You guys go! I'll take care of these bot-heads!"
Amy immediately protested. "NO! You can't take them all alone."
"He ISN'T alone!" called a voice.
The gang looked behind them, and stared in surprise. Hundreds of the city's robotic populace was running toward them in droves! Scyzor and Krystal were more surprised than anyone else.
"We're all sick of that jerk too!" called out someone from the crowd, as did many more.
"He's oppressed us for too long!"
"You're the man for stepping up, Scyzor! We're with you and Krystal all the way!"
"Down with Gamma Catalyst!"
With their calls filling the air, they quickly changed they're words to their actions, and began tackling, taking down, and firing away at the hoard of mechas!
"Nice one, Scy!" Sonic faced him. "Look what you're influence has brought: the first Freedom Fighters of Mobius Z!"
"Thanks to you all, my friends!" Scyzor and Krystal pointed to the tower once more.
"Now go and take Gamma down! We got these mecha-morons covered!"
Sonic gave his thumbs up. "Right!"
Amy looked for Mighty and Lupe, and found them joining in with the other robots in fighting the mechas.
"Let's go guys! We need you!" she called.
Mighty looked back and grinned. "Nah! You guys can do it. We'll take care of everything here."
Amy looked confused. Lupe spoke up.
"Amy, this is your fight today. Gamma's your foe, your old enemy, and yours to finish!"
Thinking back, Amy knew it herself. Gamma was her enemy. And she owed him a defeat. A permanent one this time! Sonic grabbed her arm and looked in her eyes.
"They're right. Now let's kick his cold hard metal keister!"
"That's MY job today, Sonic!" she answered.
She hoped on his back and the two dashed straight into the dark tower finally. The next few seconds passed as slow as what seemed like an exceeding long moment of slow motion, as they ran higher up the stairways reaching the top most area of the black spire.
Soon they found it: at the top of the next stairway was the door to the top chamber. Not planning on holding back anymore, Amy leaped off Sonic's back and with a quick, swift swing….'BAAAMM!'….knocked it down with her mighty Piko Piko!
Then it seemed like time stopped instantly. Sonic stopped fast and stood still next to Amy. Both of them stared straight forward, as their gaze reached two familiar sinister red eyes. The black robo-giant stood before them, his arms down and fists clenched, and mouth revealed for the first time showing a toothy, menacing grin. They finally reached Gamma Catalyst!
"Hmhmhmhmhmmm…………At last……"
Finally! Face to face with the enemy! The ultimate showdown is about to start, as the fate of Mobius Z will be decided. Is Amy really ready to face her old arch foe once more? And what has happened to Necronos and the others?
Necronos: "Don't worry! I'm still in the plot!"
Be with me next time! R&R please (it's been so long)!
