Chapter 21- Uprising
Mina's POV
"You need to eat something, Mina."
I reluctantly took the bagel from Sonic's hand and took a bite. It was warm.. and delicious.
Amy handed me a cup of coffee. "You're favorite," she said, winking. I took a sip. Caramel iced Frappaciouno. I gave her a smile, she knew me well.
"He fell back asleep, huh?" Sonic motioned to Tails, who was snoring softly.
I nodded. "He must be exhausted after having the life sucked out of him."
I looked back at my boyfriend. He was frowning.. was he stressing about something?
My thoughts were interrupted when the watch on Sonic's wrist started beeping. He pressed a button and spoke into it.
"What's up?"
A familiar voice replied "Sonic, we need some backup down here." It was Shadow.
"What is going on?" Amy asked, standing beside Sonic and peering down at his wrist.
"Metropolis is being overrun by a bunch of weird monsters. We have taken some of them down, but.."
Knuckles was talking now, and he sounded urgent.
"Sonic, we need your help to hold these guys off, there are too many of them." Now Silver.
Sonic gave Amy a look, and they both nodded.
"We will be there in a flash," Sonic answered.
I heard Knuckles yelling as he clobbered the monsters in the background, and Silver was chanting as he used telekinesis. There were growls as the monsters neared them.
"Damnit, they are closing in," Shadow growled. I heard the power charge up in his hand.
"CHAOS CONTROL!" He yelled, and the call cut out.
"Lets get moving, Amy." Sonic started heading for the door, followed by Amy.
"Mina, stay here and keep an eye on Tails. We will be back as soon as-"
I interrupted him. "I can't just stay here when you guys are out there fighting. I want to come with you."
Sonic and Amy both shook their heads. "Tails would want you to stay here, where it is safe."
They were right.. Tails wouldn't be too happy with me if I joined them in battle.
"I can't put you in danger, Mina.. It would be a betrayal toward Tails." Sonic looked at me, firm.
I wanted to fight with my friends.. but they had extra backup. If they were in too much trouble, I would join them.
"Okay. You are right.. I will stay here and keep an eye on him." I sat down on the bed with Tails. "Be careful out there, you two.. and if you need any more help, give me a buzz."
Sonic nodded, and Amy gave me a smile.
"See ya, Mina," Sonic said.
"Bye, Mina!"
And both were gone.
Sonic's POV
What a day.
First, my best friend was hospitalized because some evil idiot was literally sucking his life away.
Second, there were no donuts left in the cafeteria.
And now, Monsters were invading Metropolis and giving the team some crap.
It was still early, and I already wanted to go to bed.
Amy and I had arrived at the city, and boy was it a party. A bunch of black, wolf-like things were roaming the streets. Okay then.
"Sonic, over here!"
I ran in the direction of Knuckles voice. Him, along with Shadow and Silver, were surrounded by wolves. I nodded to Amy, and we both jumped right over the monsters and joined our friends.
"Thanks for coming, guys," Silver said. "They were starting to give us some trouble."
There were at least a dozen wolves in front of us. What looked like the leader of the pack glared at me with his white, souless eyes. Creeeppyyy.
"Where in the Hell did these even come from?" I asked, punching one in the face as it lunged toward me.
"We don't know," Shadow answered as he kicked another to the ground. "I have my suspicions that they are some kind of shapeshift creatures. I saw a few turn into other animals."
Silver used his psycokinesis and sent one flying. "Their primary form is the wolf, though." A few lunged toward him, and I jumped in to help.
We fought them off the best we could, each of us using all of our strength to keep them from ripping our throats out.
"Sonic, behind!" I flipped backwards on Amy's command, now behind the wolf. Amy ran past me and smashed its head in with her hammer.
"Nice one," I grinned. She grinned back. We were doing pretty great against these losers.
I looked over to see Silver launch Knuckles at a group of monsters. Knuckles hit the ground and spun with his fists out, knocking out all of the jerks around him.
Shadow was blasting the wolves with chaos energy, only using Chaos Control when necessary.
By the looks of it, we were winning.
Of course, my big, fat mouth jinxed us all when a giant hole in the sky formed and a bunch of dark orbs started flying out.
We were suddenly bombarded with a whole new load, only this time the things were... clones. Of who, you may ask? Well, my fine friends.. of us.
In front of us were darker versions of Knuckles, Silver, Shadow, Amy, and myself. They stared us down with their creepy eyeballs.
"Great," Knuckles growled under his breath. "Looks like we can't catch a break."
The clone of me lunged forward, and a fight broke out.
I dodged spin attacks, punches, and kicks from my clone. It was like fighting Metal Sonic.. only creepier.
After I landed a few punches, my clone got ticked. It floated up into the air, spinning in place. Before I could react, it launched itself back at me, hitting me and sending me backwards.
I could hear the others struggling in the background.
I opened my eyes slightly to see Silver trying to use telekinesis to throw his clone, but his clone got the best of him and hit him with a car.
I pulled myself off of the ground and tried to walk toward him, but my clone held me back.
I watched as Shadow used Chaos control, only to have his clone break it and blast him with an unstoppable bolt of energy.
I looked over to Amy, who was dodging hammer attacks and trying to land a hit with her own hammer. Her clone dodged a ground smash, and Amy watched as it held down her hammer with its.. foot?
The monster Amy looked her in the eyes as it basically teleported itself behind her. I had no time to warn her as the clone summoned a hammer and smacked Amy in the back, sending her to the ground.
My clone laughed evilly as I struggled out of its grip. What was this dude's deal?
I turned around to face it. "What do you want?" I growled, and the clone just stared.
"My orders are to send all of you to our world. You will be dealt with accordingly when you arrive."
With those words, I turned back around as Silver started to dissapear in plain sight. I finally released myself from the clone's grip and punched it in the face. I rushed toward Silver, but before I got there he was gone.
I looked over to see Knuckles do the same before I could move.
I saw Shadow in the corner of my eye. "Shad!" I zoomed for him as he dissapeared.
And finally, I went for Amy. Reaching my hand out for her, I dived for her. I hit the ground as she materialized in front of my eyes. "Ames!" I yelled, but it was too late. They were all gone.
My evil clone laughed that same, creepy laugh as before. I turned around to face it.
"Where did you send them" I asked quietly.
My clone put out its hand. "Sonic, you foolish hedgehog," it spoke, and I wanted to punch its face in.
"I'll gladly take you to them."
And with that, everything started to dissapear around me as I poofed right there. Wherever I was going, I knew it couldn't be good. I knew one thing, though.
When I got there, there would be some Monster Butt- Kicking in order.
Mina's POV
Sonic and Amy weren't back, and I hadn't heard anything from either one of them. I was starting to worry..
I slowly stood up and walked over to the window, looking out. I gasped at the sight. The sky was darker, and I could've sworn that I saw a giant rip a little ways away.
Sonic and Amy.. please be okay.
I walked back over to Tails, who was still asleep. If it weren't for him, I would be out there fighting with the others. He cared about my safety so much.. if I were to get hurt out there, I knew he wouldn't take it lightly.
And if I were killed, God only knows. This was Tails..
Damnit Tails, why are you so dang lovable?
I leaned down and gave him a light kiss on the lips. They were warm..
After I pulled away, I thought I saw Tails smile. I smiled and went to take his hand, but I stopped and went silent. I thought I had heard footsteps..
After listening for a second, I heard more footsteps. We weren't alone anymore.
I stood, cautiously looking around. I didn't see anyone, and nothing had been moved. I took a fork from Amy's untouched salad bowl and held it in front of me, ready to attack if I needed to.
I was about to let down my guard when I was suddenly grabbed from behind. I struggled to break free as arms wrapped around my neck and squeezed me. I tried to stab my abductor with the fork, but failed miserably.
Everything started to fade away as I lost the air-flow to my brain. I gasped for air, but to no prevail as I started to lose consciousness yet again. Whoever had ahold of me was trying to choke the life out of me.. and I couldn't stop it.
I tried to scream for Tails, but I couldn't get any words out.
I closed my eyes and my head slumped forward into my kidnapper's arms.
Hello there!
Once again, I am sorry for the long wait. Things have been busy, and I didn't have too much time (or energy) to update. But finally, I have returned!
I tried to make this chapter epic and exciting in return for the wait. Hopefully I succeeded!
Finally, things are speeding up as we are coming closer to the end. The battle has begun!
We got to see into Sonic's side of the story for a bit.. where did these "clones" send our heroes?
And Mina? I am not going to lie.. I was on edge while writing the abduction scene. My girl was kidnapped! But, by who? Well, why don't you stay for next chapter to find out ;)
All questions will be answered, all suspicions will be confirmed.. next time.
Please, comment on opinions/Feedback/Thoughts and more! I READ ALL OF THEM!
Thank you for reading, I pour my heart into this story.
See you all next time~
