Part 28 - G.U.N's most wanted
Silver's POV
It had been 30 minutes since hearing the news but even that long I had trouble believing it.
"Look, I know this must be hard for you kiddo but I'm telling the truth.. See she's my partner and has been since the day we met which at that time we were younger than you and your friends.."
"Great.. Look you don't have to lie, if my mom was having a affair with you-"
"Not at the least mister ! We're just friends plus I have a son of my own to take care of" He huffed crossing his arms defensively. This was getting no where but the more I thought about it the more I doubted what I believed after that bomb 'Could he be telling the truth.. But if so why didn't mom tell me about this before..'.
"Hey I'm back from the shower, so what did I miss ?" Sonic asked sitting down beside me wearing a white T-shirt with skinny jeans which seemed tight on him 'I'm guessing this was all Amy's mom had that wouldn't look to feminine.. '.
"Nothing we're still fighting over whether or not to believe him yet.." Sighing he furrowed his eyebrows then looked back at me as he then gave a serious but relaxed tone.
"Look I would have nothing to gain by lying to you, I'm just here because your mother has lost contact with us near Snow Pass.. A bomb when off and trapped her and all are other agents in the snow.. I was lucky to make it back before the enemy's robot got to the others !"
"Trapped and now robots ?.. No way are we believing you.."
"Look you have to believe me ! Your mom is-" Blinking a clicking sound came from his watch as he then clicked one button making a new screen appear but what was on the screen shaking me down to the core. It was my mother who looked to be badly beaten up as her body lied emotionless on the red snow below her.
"MMmmm !-" I muffled trying to scream, my face completely covered by the stranger's hand as he then told me through his eyes to stay quiet.
"This is Scatt Prower, who am I speaking too ?"
"EEEERRRRRrrrrrrr !" a metal voice spoke up although non of what it said was clear.
"Speak clearer if I am to understand you.. Just what are you after ?"
"Crrr-... Only one emerald remains.. If you wish to save this woman's life bring me the last emerald.."
"Grrr.. You sick son of a B!tc# ! What are you and your boss planning to do with that last emerald anyhow !"
"Crrr-Errr... You have 25 hours, 32 minutes and 6 seconds... That is when... The world will end-" The screen cut off with a high pitch sound leaving all of us to stare wide eye'd. Taking the watch off, The fox smashed it before throwing it into a trash bag.
"Now do you believe me.. Dam are best agent might die if we don't do something but if we listen we may put the whole world in danger.."
"I don't understand.. Whats so important about these emeralds that my mom's life is on the line !"
"I can't tell you... Its top secret information, only agents are to know about this.."
"Then make us agents" Blinking both me and Scatt looked at Sonic with a raised eyebrow 'could he be serious ?...'.
"Chu kidding right ! You'd have only less than a day to train, being an agent takes months to do if not years !"
"Then make us part time so we can at least help.. There's no way I'm going to let my future mother in law die on me that quick" Sonic smirked to me, a smile once again returning to my face. Sighing Scatt sat down trying to think things clearly.
"You don't get that chu could die out there.. It's not safe and I know non of you have had a gun"
"Well we don't need guns when we got my speed and Silvy's flying powers" Blinking a ray of hope glinted on Scatt's face as he tilled his head up.
"Wait you have super speed and he can fly ? Why didn't chu say that before ! That may be of some help to us yet"
"Plus I can create fire from my hands" Blaze smirked joining in on this which made me more sure we had this in the bag.
"Hmm.. If you work together we may have a secret weapon on are hands.. K now we have to come up with a game plan and then-"
"But what about the emerald ?.. What if he gets it first then what, heck do you even know where that is ?" Pinky spoke up feeling left out. She had a point, besides even if we do stop this evil dude who's to say he won't kill mom.
"Hmmm.. Saddly I wouldn't know where it is.. I know that we found six of them and that they were taken but the last one we couldn't even track down"
"Ohh that's not good, the last thing we need is for more people to die" Rosabelle frowned looking over to Amy who frowned back at her.
"Great then I guess we have no choice on the matter but to fight back this evil dude"
"It's easier said than done.. Agent Halark, or what you call mother was the only one who got close enough to the last emerald, although she didn't find it.. Doctor Robotnik probably thought he could use that to his advantage so he can get her to give him details.." My eyes widen as I then remember that name being told to me before.
"Grayson said Robotnik helped fix him when he was stabbed a lot.. He said he replaced all his shoulders along with his spine and right foot with some metal parts.."
"You must have the wrong doctor, Robotnik would never help anyone but himself"
"But it's true ! Grayson never once lied to me so I know he isn't lying now"
"Well if your friend's body has robot parts in it then it's no doubt Robotnik is going to use him as a slave soon"
"WHAT !" I couldn't believe everything going by the second, all I wanted was for this to be a dream and that this would be the part where I wake up and pretend it was all in my head.. How I wish it could be...
Sonic's POV
I could see how troubled Silver seemed by the look on his face but even I couldn't think of a way of helping it this time. That's when a phone rang in the background breaking everyone from thought as they turned to see Amy answer her cellphone.
"Huh ? Ohh its you now what do you want" Her voice in deepen tone as she looked annoyed at the caller but soon she soften as she looked up at everyone, placing the phone away from her ear.
"Guy's it's Shadow, he says Grayson saw what happened to your home on the news and that he was trying to contact you to see if your okay and everything"
"Hmmm, put him on speaker Amy"
"Ohhh alright Sonikku" She said then clicked a button so that we could hear Shadow's voice.
"Hello ? Shadow you there ? It's me Sonic" I spoke up then listened for his voice which I was still uncomfortable trusting him of all people.
"Hmph, wasn't looking forward to talking to you faker but I'm guessing if this is you then Silver's okay as well"
"Yeah he's okay but a bit troubled.. Look Shadow we need you to get us contact with Grayson, before something else bad happens"
"Ohh he's in the bed next to me, hey let me pass the phone over" Shadow said then threw the phone over to Grayson who caught it but almost fell off the bed trying.
"Hello ? Blue boy is that chu ?" Chuckled a happy Grayson on the other end.
"Yeah its me.. Say Grayson have you been feeling strange or something ?"
"Umm... Any stranger from being beaten up like a rag doll well no.. Why ?"
"Grayson we were just told that Robotnik isn't the nice man you knew, he's evil"
"Huh ? Wait I don't understand"
"Huh ? Wait a second I know that voice !" Scatt backed up, grabbing the phone from Amy.
"Your that boy from 7 years ago ! I know your voice because your boyfriend got shot down and I was at the scene when you heard the news"
"... Y-your cop ?"
"No I'm a Spy for G.U.N, see your boyfriend's case wasn't normal Grayson and that's why I remember it... See he was killed because one of Robotnik's robot's thought he had one of the emeralds. Not just any one though but the last one of all seven..."
"W-what !" He spoke up shocked.
"We know now that wasn't the case and that he didn't have it.. Sorry if it hurts me saying so... but the gem was a white coloured emerald"
"... White coloured you say" Grayson said then looked down at the gem in his ring.
"What is this emerald called..."
"A chaos emerald... But millions of years ago it was said these emeralds where the building blocks of nature due to its mysterious powers of time and space... In fact it's said that it can give you the power to create or destroy... The power to make any dream come true.."
"The power... To make any dream... come true..." I whispered to myself in silence at those words 'if it can make any dream come true... Then I must find them for myself and myself alone..'...
