Chapter 55:
Team Sonic walked throughout Station Square, just getting off the train. They were enjoying their break from evil. Since they defeated Nega's big attack, nothing big has happened.
They walked to the hotel, planning to go down by the beach. Right before they entered the hotel doors that opened for them, they heard a voice call out to them.
"Hey, son!" The three heroes turned around to find no other than Team Legendary walking towards them.
"What are you doing here?" Sonic asked.
"Just decided to drop by. Wanna go back to the base and talk there?" Zeus suggested.
"Sure!" Knuckles accepted.
All six turned back to the train, and got on to go to Casino City. The train rolled out of the station with great speed.
When they got into the city, Tails led them through the busy intersections and casinos. Finally, they reached the Casino Corp building. Tails walked up to the receptionist, and turned to a blank wall as the secret door opened, which all six walked through and down the stairs.
They reached the bottom, and settled down on the furniture in the living room. Zeus told Sonic that he wanted to go down by the beach, so those two dashed off in blurs of cobalt. Mintra went off to help train some heroes.
This left Hurricane, Knuckles, Espio, and Tails on the couch.
"Why don't you tell some of your greatest adventures in GUN?" Knuckles advised, "They're pretty cool, with all of the big enemies you fought!"
"Fine then," Hurricane complied, "I'll tell of my fight against Kyuto."
Espio and Tails almost gasped at the sound of the name.
"Well here goes nothing," Hurricane began.
(Flashback)
The gray echidna stood before the new Kyuto, wind circling the GUN agent rapidly.
The fox looked like an older Tails, but an aura of deep scarlet surrounded him. He gained feral features such as fangs, a rough muzzle, and long claws. In addition, seven aura tails surrounded his two regular ones.
Kyira stood behind Hurricane, tears running down her face.
"I...I'm sorry, I had no clue this would happen," Kyira apologized.
"You can leave it to me now," Hurricane promised, "Now go!"
The fox demon complied and jumped away, leaving the two fighters to ensue their battle.
Three waves of red chaos energy swung through the air. But Hurricane wasn't there. He was seemingly hovering above the trees, the wind supporting him.
Kyuto let out a low, inhumane growl, and swung both his arms out to launch two stretching red chaos energy arms towards him.
Hurricane was taken completely by surprise and could do nothing as one swatted him out of the air, and another grabbed him and smashed him into the ground. He was then pulled back towards Kyuto. The fox then tossed Hurricane across the forest, but the wind slowed his knock back down considerably.
Hurricane dashed forward, the wind cutting a clear path for him. Kyuto didn't expect such a frontal and straightforward attack, and was knocked backwards by a powerful fist. He tried to recover, but was fisted in the upper and lower chest before being knocked away by a huge tornado.
"Tornado Attack!" Hurricane bellowed.
The echidna pursued the possessed ninjutsu master. When he saw him again, many small fireballs headed for him. They suddenly turned into transparent balls of red chaos energy.
"Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!" Kyuto roared before jumping at the explosion.
The badly scorched Hurricane jumped out, and furious wind and red chaos energy clashed, illuminating the forest. Many trees fell over from the explosion, and as it faded, Hurricane dashed at him once again.
He grabbed onto his arms, ignoring the searing pain. Wind surrounded both of them closing in on them, and Hurricane smirked as he bellowed, "Gale Burst!"
A huge explosion of wind covered the entire forest, slashing apart everything in its path. Trees blew every which way, finally settling along with the wind.
When it cleared, Hurricane was still holding on to Kyuto's fist. Kyira watched, and sobbed hysterically as blood dripped down Kyuto's mouth. The fox smirked once as Espio watched from behind a broken tree, and fell, dead.
(End Flashback)
"There was more to the battle before I told Kyira to hide, but that was the part that stuck out in my mind the most," Hurricane stated.
"I remember it as clear as day," Espio reminisced.
"You alright Tails?" Knuckles asked, noticing the fox's solemn look.
"I'm...fine..." Tails murmured as he got up and walked away.
"What it something I said?" Hurricane wondered. Knuckles just shrugged.
Down by the beach, Zeus and Sonic sat and watched the water's soft waves lap against the sand and pull all that was there away.
"So, why are we watching the beach again?" Sonic asked, his foot tapping lightly into the sand.
"The technique I'm about you teach you is just like the waves, how they draw in things from the beach towards themselves," Zeus stated calmly. Both of them got up, and Zeus turned to face him.
"You have a certain affinity with super forms where you can grant it to others. I cannot do that, but have you thought of doing the opposite? Instead of giving energy, you could take it," Zeus explained, "I cannot do it because the emeralds work in certain way with only you."
"So I can just do the opposite of what I do with Tails and Knuckles?" Sonic questioned.
"Yes, and this may be the only way to defeat Corrupt, if you can get enough strong people to lend you strength," Zeus replied, "You will have to try this at the moment of the final fight, as you cannot do it without the chaos emeralds. But this might just be the last hope for us. Remember this, for you will need it, I just have a feeling."
The heroes stood outside Casino Corp as Team Legendary stood there.
"Well it's time for us to get back on the road," Hurricane grumbled, "The boring, boring road."
"Farewell, my son!" Zeus said, waving to him and the heroes.
"See you Dad," Sonic smiled, "Good luck."
With that, Zeus shouted, "Chaos Control!"
And then they were gone.
To Be Continued...
A/N: I'll probably do one or two more chapters today. Remember to review and submit more chapter ideas! I need at least four, remember that! In addition, I have new information up on my profile about an upcoming series, so check it out, it won't bite.
