Sonic spin dashed the badniks that came near the kingdom. He quickly destroyed them.
"Well that was fast…" said sonic.
"I agree…" said Sally.
Eggman was watching from his base, not very happy about this. Sadly sonic was right, his robots were lacking in causing destruction. Sure they could easily take out the guards, but with that hedgehog there, they wouldn't be getting very fair.
Eggman sighed angrily.
"What seems to be the problem doctor?" said naugus.
"While I like the fact that my robots could take on the guards, with sonic there, they aren't going to get very fair. That blue pest plows though them like their nobody's business…"
"I see…" said Naugus, scratching his white beard with his hand.
"I'm afraid my robots are going to be seen as a joke to sonic and those wimps in the kingdom if I don't do something…"
"I think I may have a solution however…" said Naugus.
"And what would that be?"
"What if you made a robot that was just like Sonic, could be just as fast as him, use some of his same moves, and even be mistaken as him…"
Eggman thought about it. He did like the idea, a sort of robot sonic, a metal sonic…something that could attack sonic and make him look bad…
"You know, I'm starting to like this idea of yours naugus…"
"Want me to start working on the body cast?"
"sure, while you do that, I'll enter and copy some footage of Sonic's moves that he uses on my robots."
Eggman looked up at the screen, seeing sonic high five a bunch of kids.
"Have fun while you can sonic, cause old eggman has an invention that's going to rain on your parade…"
"Well I hate to admit it, but you did do a nice job out there…" said Sally.
"Still somewhat mad at me?" sonic asked.
"No, but I am curious to how you destroy them so quickly."
"It's a piece of cake! I just spin dash on them and they explode or malfunction. It's pretty simple really."
"Well, your spin dash move is making these robots look like nothing."
"Good thing too, I still want to know what is up with eggman. He didn't always act this way, and I'm wondering if the crystal I picked up had something to do with it…" sonic said putting his hand under his chin thinking.
"what did these crystals look like anyway? "
"Well, they weren't exactly crystals, they…well…they had a name, I think it was something emerald."
Sally's eyes lit up. She then grabbed sonic's arm.
"mind taking a trip with me to the library?"
"But reading is so bo-"
Sally gave sonic a disapproving look.
"uh I mean, sure, why not?" sonic said with a nervous smile. Him and sally walked over to the acorn library.
Outside of it were two statue acorns across from each other. The two walked up the stairs and entered the library which was dead silent.
"Man this place is quiet…" sonic said whispering into Sally's voice, not wanting to get in trouble.
Sally walked over to the history and nature section of the library. She went over and grabbed a bit book. The big was huge, and she had a hard time trying to carry it. She plopped it down on the table and opened it up looking thought it.
"Let me see here." Said Sally in a quiet voice.
She looked thought the book and finally found the page she was looking for. She then pointed at sonic, who began to read the section.
Chaos emeralds
Not very much is known about these things, and were they came from is a mystery too. From what scientist could gather, they have a ton of energy in them. It isn't known if anyone could or can take the power from these emeralds to have been in their body; however scientists don't suggest it, as it could be very dangerous. On the other hand however, scientist have no clue where to find these said emeralds, and the one's they have found have been hidden so they cannot be used for evil.
"Is that what you picked up…" said Sally in a whispered voice.
"Yes, that's it."
Sally and Sonic walked out of the library.
"So that was what that thing was! I wish I had kept a hold onto it though."
"You didn't know sonic, and I'm glad that you aren't evil or crazy."
"I do wonder if that's what caused eggman to go crazy, does the book say anything about it having a negative effect on people?"
"Not really, and keep in mind we don't really get humans around here."
"Hey sonic!"
A chipmunk kid walked up to sonic looking somewhat angry.
"What was the big deal blowing right by me? You almost knocked me down!"
"Sonic was in the library with me, so that's impossible."
"Hey sonic!"
A pig sale man with an apron on walked over to Sonic.
"What was the big idea destroying my food cart!"
"He was in the library with me…" said Sally
"and he almost knocked me down when he was in the library with her…" said the kid.
"And he's over there knocking over us guards right now!" said one of the guards.
Indeed, something was knocking over the guards. Sonic went over and was knocked back by anther blue blur. He looked up to see a robot version of him, with red eyes.
"What the heck." Said sonic.
"great, because robots weren't bad enough!" said one of the guards.
"Found target: destroy." Said metal sonic.
Sonic nearly dodged the robot sonic's spin dash.
"Really now? Stealing some of my moves!" said sonic. He spin-dashed back at metal sonic and clashed with Metal sonic. The two bounced back and forth, bouncing all over the place and almost into some buildings.
"Alright, time to take this outside of the village. Sonic ran, but metal sonic ran faster, catching up to sonic quickly.
"Your pretty fast for a robot…" said sonic.
Metal sonic blasted sonic with his laser beam, and knocked him into a tree. Apples fell on sonic, piling up on him. Back at his base, eggman and Naugus were enjoying the h-e-double hockey sticks out of the beat down sonic was receiving.
"I gotta give you credit Naugus, this has to be one of the best ideas you've ever thought of."
"Thank you doctor, I'm glad I partnered up with you."
"and to answer your question yes I did have it to be programmed that metal sonic attack the village once he's done cleaning sonic's clock."
"good doctor. Those lame guards barely have what it takes to destroy your normal robots, I'd like to see how they do against metal sonic."
Sonic got up, his head pounding.
"I'll give you credit you metal freak, you sure are a tough nut…" said Sonic.
Metal sonic once again spun dashed at sonic, but he moved out of the way, only for the tree to start to tip over.
"Oh come on…" said sonic.
He got under the tree and then pushed it over to the other side. He tipped it over to metal sonic.
"Talk about killing two birds with one stone." Said sonic.
This wasn't the case however. Sonic was spun dashed from behind by metal sonic and passed out. The last thing he heard was Sally saying his name.
