Ch 10: The Secrets of the Instruments
The Secrets of the Instruments
The afternoon sun was blazing in the sky as three vans crossed the sandy dunes of the Syrian Desert. "Sal, do you happen to know what the name of the emeralds is." Sonic asked into the radio.
"It said that it's supposed to be the lost emeralds of Amon-Rapi." she replied, her voice was filled with bits of static. Sonic and siblings had shock on their faces, but nobody could see it.
"Like, did you say Amon-Rapi?" Manic asked.
"Yeah, why?" Sally asked. Confusion could be easily heard in her voice.
"That's our ancestor." Sonia answered.
"Oh, how did you know if you all got separated?" Sally asked.
"We ended up having to take a trip to his pyramid to find a scroll. The cool part about him is that he looks just like me." Sonic said.
"And kinda acts like him too." Sonia added. Sally sighed in the radio.
"Hey, I see something in the distance." Manic said as a huge canon was seen over the horizon. All the vans stopped and everyone stepped out, deciding that it will be better to continue on foot. As they got closer, a siren went off at a nearby base. Swarms of Swatbots stormed out of the base, firing lasers at the intruders.
"Seem like they needs some training." Sonic said as he turned his medallion into guitar, his siblings did the same thing.
"How are instruments going to help us?" Sally asked. Sonic played a few notes and his guitar fired a laser at a Swatbot, causing it to explode.
"That's how Sal. If you thought that was impressive, you should see Manic's ability." Sonic then turned to the drummer. "Show them bro."
"My pleasure." He then begins to beat his drums fast. Suddenly, a piece of the ground that some Swatbots were standing on floated up. With a down beat, it crashed into another set of Swatbots.
"Is there anything else that your instruments can do?" Rotor asked, fascinated. A group of Swatbots were closing the gap between them. Sonia started to play her piano and a pink fog came from the magical instruments. All the Swatbots started to crash into each other as they couldn't see. Sonia stopped playing and the fog disappeared to reveal smashed Swatbots.
"My piano is also a fog machine, great for distractions." She said as she turned her piano into a rifle. They suddenly heard clapping and turned around. Robotnik was sitting on top of the canon. Sleet and Dingo were on each side of the massive machinery.
"Sonia." Dingo said, making lovesick face at her.
"Oh, Ick." Sonia said. Her face showed that she was disgusted.
"You're too late. Once I destroy those pesky hedgehogs, the prophecy will never come and I will be unstoppable. Mwahahahaha" Robotnik said.
