Thrash had collected as many rings as he could. Though it was hard for him to find them but he managed to get them somehow. Currently, Thrash was now at Plant Kingdom. He looked around to make sure that no one was there.
He took off his backpack and opened it, a yellow light emerged from the backpack and shone at it.
A gruesome smile appeared on his face, knowing that he just collected them all in weeks.
"Finally, after collecting these rings I can seek a revenge on Knuckles and his friends," Thrash thought to himself.
The tasmanian devil took them out of his backpack and fused them together. The rings then began glowing bright and floated in the air, signing him that the rings are beginning to transform.
He took a step back as the rings started to increase it's size and finally transformed into a perfect Warp Ring.
Thrash smiled and laughed, "Finally! My Warp Ring at last! I can finally seek revenge on Knuckles and his stupid friends! Soon, they all will be under my control and will he servants FOREVER!"
Thrash snapped his finger as the Warp Ring created a portal in the center. Thrash's jumped into the Warp Ring as the portal closed and disappeared out of sight.
Meanwhile at the Chaotix Agency Building, Charmy and Saffron were in Charmy's bedroom. Charmy was covering Saffron's arm with bandages.
He asked her about the bruises but Saffron refused to tell him but Charmy didn't mind. He just proceeded to heal the wounds that was all over her arms. But he was overthinking about it.
"Done!" Charmy said, smiling in relief.
Saffron took a glance on her arms, almost all of her arms were covered with bandages but she didn't care.
She looked at Saffron and said, "Thank you, Charmy. That is so sweet of you."
Charmy nodded, "You're welcome, Saffron."
He placed back the remaining bandages into the medical box and closed it. He placed back the box where it belongs and looked at Saffron with a smile on his face.
All of the sudden, Charmy heard familiar voices coming from the living room, it was Vector who was talking to the phone.
"Hey, Sonic. What's wrong?" Vector asked through the phone.
"Hey, Vector. Listen here it's Knuckles he went missing like a few days ago I tried to find him but I can't find him anywhere," Sonic said through the phone, he sounded anxious.
"I see." The crocodile replied.
"Charmy? Is everything alright?" Saffron interrupted.
Charmy blinked and looked at Saffron. "O-Oh? Yes! Of course I am."
"You sure you're alright?" She asked again.
"No need to worry about me. I was just... listening."
"Listening to what?"
"Vector is talking to Sonic on the phone right now. So I listened to their conversation."
"Wow... How do you know that?"
"Super Hearing."
"Oh, I see." She chuckled.
"Charmy! Saffron!" Vector called out from the living room. The bees exited the room and made their way to the living room. There stood Vector and Espio.
"What's wrong, Vector?" Saffron asked.
"Listen, Sonic just told me that Knuckles went missing like a few days ago and he left the Master Emerald unguarded. So as detectives we haf'ta go help him find Knuckles." The crocodile replied.
"Let's head there then," Espio said. All of them nodded.
The group walked out the house and went off to find Sonic. They saw Sonic and his friends gathering in front of Tails' base as they walked up to them.
Amy saw them and said, "There they are."
All of them walked up them and noticed that there was also another familiar member. Their eyes opened wide.
"Saffron?" Sonic said.
"You're back!" Tails exclaimed.
"But where's Julie-Su?" Amy asked.
All of them stared at Saffron curiously as soon as they heard her question but Saffron remained silent and decided not to talk about it.
"I.. don't want to talk about it." She replied, looking at the ground.
"Okay then.." Tails said.
"When was the last time you saw Knuckles, Sonic?" Vector interrupted.
"Well like a few days ago. Tried to find him but like I said.. he's nowhere to be found," The blue hedgehog replied.
"Where was the last time you saw the Master Emerald?" Charmy added.
"Well, somewhere in the forest in front of the lake." He said.
"Then let's head there," the bee suggested.
All of them nodded and went to the forest, they arrived to the pond and looked around. Vector looked around the ponds and saw a few footprints in the ground near the lake.
"Look here, guys! Found some footprints!" The crocodile called out, all of them gathered around.
"Where do these footprints come from?" Amy asked.
"Is it Knuckles'?" Saffron demanded curiously.
"Knuckles' footprints couldn't be that big..." Tails added.
"Alright! No time playin' around! Everybody put your shoes on the ground!" Vector ordered. All of them glared at him.
"Is that really necessary?" Espio sighed.
"Of course it does!" The crocodile grunted.
"Why?" Amy asked.
"Don't ask! Perhaps one of you guys is behind all of this?!"
"Now why would we want to do that?" Charmy demanded.
Vector rolled his eyes at Charmy and said, "Shut up, Charmy!" The crocodile argued.
Suddenly, Charmy heard a twig being snapped from a few meters away from them thanks to his Super Hearing ability but he decided to ignore it. Maybe it's just an animal stepped on it?
"Vector we wouldn't do such things to him.." Espio added.
"Yeah," Amy said.
As the group talked to each other, Charmy suddenly senses that something was running towards them. He could feel the vibration from meters away. As Charmy turned around he saw someone with tall, large, purple muscular body jumped from the bushes near them, holding a large golden ring in it's hand.
It was Thrash the Tasmanian Devil.
"GUYS LOOK OUT!" Charmy yelled, all of them turned around and gasped when they saw him.
Thrash smirked and took a deep breath before unleashing a loud supersonic scream but the attack was blocked by Charmy when he created a white tall hexagon wall in front of him.
"Charmy... D-Did you just.." Vector muttered, gazing at the white hexagon force field in front him.
Thrash groaned in frustration and took a deep breath to unleash another supersonic scream again but his action was stopped by Sonic when he used Homing Attack on him.
"Quick! Hold him!" Sonic commanded, the rest of them immediately ran up to him.
The group was about to pin him but all of them failed to notice that Thrash was still holding the Warp Ring. The tasmanian devil smirked and quickly stood up.
"Idiots! You should have known that I still have my ring!" Thrash yelled, throwing the ring at them as it began to increase it's size and turned into a portal.
"GUYS BE CAREFUL!" Tails exclaimed.
The rest of them tried to avoid the Warp Ring but unfortunately all of them got sucked into the ring and disappeared out of sight.
"Finally! You all will be my slaves!" Thrash exclaimed then burst into sinister laughter.
They were brought into other dimension.
Charmy's P.O.V-
I opened my eyes slowly. My vision was blurry and my head aches. I didn't remember what happened earlier. All I can't remember is Knuckles went missing and we... Got abducted? That's all I can remember.
My vision slowly went clear and I looked around, it was dark and I felt like my hands were tied up with a rope. I looked at my hands and realized they were tied up with a chain. My eyes widened in horror. Now I remember what happened.
We were all looking for Knuckles and then we were sucked into Thrash's Warp Ring. But I didn't know where I am nor my friends are. So, I quickly shrunk myself into small size to free myself. I returned back into my normal size and looked around, it was dark and I couldn't see anything when suddenly my vision started to turn green.
All of the sudden, I could see through the dark with my eyes. At first I thought I was hallucinating but then I realized that I just discovered a new superpower: Night Vision.
Feeling proud of superpowers, I used my Night Vision to look around and then something caught me by surprise.
All of my friends were unconscious and their hands were tied up with a chain.
I ran to Saffron and kneeled down, shaking her to wake her up.
"Saffron!" I whispered. "Saffron! Please wake up!"
No response as I grew panic.
I ran to Tails that was sitting unconsciously beside her and whispered in panic,
"Tails! Wake up!"
No response either.
I started to grow panic even more, I could hear my heart was beating fast as I started to sweat. Suddenly, I sense something was walking towards us from far away thanks to my superpowers.
I grew panic more and more but tried my best to remain calm. Once the culprit was outside of the room, I ran to the door and waited for the door to be opened so I could throw a punch at them. The door opened slowly and revealed who it was. My eyes widened.
It was Thrash.
Thrash noticed me standing in front of him. His eyes widened and he was angry.
"Wait what?! How did yer free yourself?!" He demanded hotly.
I turned off my Night Vision and chuckled nervously, "Oh! I... Uhh..."
"You little brat! Take this!" Thrash exclaimed as he threw a punch at me but I dodged it easily.
Thrash groaned and threw another punch but I dodged the attack. I smirked at him and clenched my hand into a fist.
I threw a punch at him in the cheek and surprisingly, a single punch of mine sent him flying out of the room.
I was confused. "...Did I punched him too hard?"
Realizing what I have done, I guess my superpowers also gave me Super Strength.
I ran out the room and looked around, it seems like I was in a castle or something. I looked through the hallway and sense something coming towards me from the left.
I used my Super Vision and began zooming in my vision, I saw two guards running towards me with a weapon in their hands.
I smirked and turned my vision into normal, I ran towards the guards fastly and hit them. Using my Super Speed, I ran around the castle in the speed of light as I explored around the castle, there were hundred of rooms but I didn't bother to check them. I got downstairs and saw another door that lead to underground room, I entered the room and looked around which caught me by surprise but also angered me.
The room was filled with echidnas, they all looked hungry, sad and exhausted as if they were being tortured.
"Oh no, what happened to them? All echidnas were in here all the time?" I thought to myself.
"Julie-Su must be somewhere in here..." I said to myself.
"HEY KID! WHO LET YOU ENTER THIS ROOM?!" I heard someone shouting at me in front of me. It was another guard.
"GET HIM!" Another guard said.
All of the guards were running toward me, I scoffed and ran to them. With my superpowers, I shot the guards with my laser beam, punched them and kicked them. All of the echidnas were starring at me. Once I kicked their butts, I heard someone familiar calling out for me.
"C-Charmy? Is that you?" A familiar female voice called out. I looked down and saw someone that I have been looking for a long time ago. Someone that uses to be part of our team and our best friend.
It was Julie-Su.
It saddened me when I looked at her. She was skinny and there were scars and bruises all over her body, her arms and her legs. She was trembling and there were tears in her eyes.
I flew down to her and looked at her. She looked very exhausted.
"Julie?"
"CHARMY!" She cried out as she hugged me tightly. I hugged her back. I could feel that she was trembling.
We stepped out the hug and looked at each other.
"Julie..? What happened to you? Why are all echidnas trapped in here?" I asked her.
"I'll... Explain to you later, Charmy." She replied, looking at the ground. Then turned back to me, "What are you doing here, anyway? How did you find me? Is the Chaotix with you?"
"We.. were looking for Knuckles. He went missing like a few days ago. And then Thrash showed up and brought us here using one of his Warp Ring. And yes the Chaotix is with me but they went unconscious right now." I explained.
"Oh no!" She panicked, "Is Knuckles okay? How about the others?!"
"Julie.. take it easy-" I said but was cut off by her.
"No! I can't take it easy! I have been here being a slave and tortured by Thrash and Knuckles went missing and you're here telling me to take it easy?!" She complained.
"Attention to all units! A bee boy has escaped please capture him and bring him to the Torture Room. I repeat, please capture him and bring him to the Torture Room!" A voice said through the siren.
"What's going on now?!" Julie asked.
"No time to argue! We need to save the others, the echidnas and get out of here!" I said.
"But how?!"
"I don't know! But I'll stop those guards and Thrash!" I said as I dashed out of the room.
As soon as I was flew out the room, a group of guards stood in front of me with weapons in their hands accompanied with a black shields.
"Soldiers! Attack!" One of the guards that stood in front of them all commanded, possibly the leader of them.
All of guards charged at me, ready to attack. I scoffed, knowing that I could easily beat them thanks to my superpowers, I charged at them as a trail of yellow energy appeared behind me.
I hit those guards and managed to take all of them down.
All of the sudden, I heard someone clapping their hands coming behind me.
I looked behind me to see Thrash standing making a glare at me.
"Very good, mate. You managed to take them down on your own," Thrash scoffed. "But you have no match for me."
I smirked, "Why?"
"Stop talking now. We'll fight, no weapons, magic, only fist to fist." Thrash said as he went into his battle pose.
"Very well then." I smirked.
Thrash charged at me and threw a punch at me but I dodged it. He threw another punch but I avoided the attack and kept doing it until he was open to attack. I formed a fist in my hand and punched him in the cheek.
He groaned in pain and made a sharp glare at me, then smirked.
"You may have strength but you can never defeat me. Soon yer gonna be one of slaves along with Saffron, boy!" He said.
"Not gonna happen!" I replied.
Thrash threw a punch but I dodged the attack easily, after minutes of trying to punch me Thrash eventually got tired and stopped to catch his breath. He fell onto his knees and panted.
"Running out of the juice, Thrash?" I smirked.
"Listen to me, you're gonna tell me where is Knuckles and what did you do to him." I said.
"I will never tell you boy." He grunted.
"Oh yeah? We'll see about that." I replied, I gestured one of hand into a handgun and pointed at him. Yes, I know it sounds stupid but I can also shoot yellow beams out of my fingers.
Thrash stared at me then turned back to me, he then burst into laughter.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA WHAT KIND OF JOKE ARE YOU MAKING BOY?! ARE YOU THREATENING ME WITH THAT SMALL HAND OF YOURS HAHAHAHAHAHA!" He laughed.
I rolled my eyes and pointed it at the wall behind him, I shot the wall with a yellow beam as it created an explosion.
Thrash stopped laughing and looked behind him, there was a big hole on the wall and it was burning. He gulped and slowly turned back to me.
"K-Kid... I-I'm sorry. P-Please have mercy on me." He gulped fearfully, sweating.
"Then tell me," I asked again. "Where. Is. He?"
"H-He's currently in the T-Torture Room. I-I sent him there to torture him b-but it was hard since he got lots of strength." He stuttered, shivering in fear.
"Thank you," I said.
As I was about to leave, I suddenly heard a banging sound coming from upstairs. The banging sounds began to get louder and louder as I heard the door being opened aggressively.
BANG!
"W-What was that?!" Thrash exclaimed.
I heard fast footstep sounds coming toward us from the stairs. As the sounds began to get louder, the culprit finally showed up which caught us by surprise.
It was Knuckles. And he was very pissed.
"K-Knuckles?!" I gasped.
Knuckles noticed us and glared at Thrash, he growled his teeth and charged at us.
"YOU LITTLE JERK! I'M GONNA BEAT YOU FOR GOOD." The red exclaimed in anger as he jumped on him and started punching him.
"Knuckles! Calm down please!" I said, I grabbed him and pulled him away from Thrash.
Thrash staggered and groaned in pain. All of the sudden, he started to get dizzy and fell onto the ground and fainted. I guess Knuckles punched hit his head that made him went unconscious.
"Knuckles! Take it easy this isn't going to help anything!" I told him, Knuckles groaned and calmed down as I released him.
I looked at him and asked, "Knuckles? Are you alright?"
"Yeah, sorry about that. I just got pissed off at him." He replied, crossing his arms over his chest.
"What happened?"
"He used one of his Warp Rings and sent me here. He brought me to the Torture Room to torture me so he could seek revenge,"
"I see. At least you're not hurt, right?"
"No, let's get out of here already. How did you get here anyway?"
"Like how he did to you. He used Warp Rings and brought us here."
"Wait the minute, 'us'?"
"The rest also got here too."
"Why that little-"
"Don't worry, I think they're doing okay, sorta."
Knuckles sighed, "Glad to hear that."
"Let's go save the our friends, the echidnas and get out of here." I suggested, he looked at me in confusion.
"The other echidnas? What do you mean by that?"
I smiled at him and brought him to the underground room where the poor echidnas work. When we entered the room, all of them stared at us. Knuckles was amazed and happy when he realized that the echidnas were still alive and not being the "last echidna on Earth".
We noticed Julie-Su and ran up to her. Knuckles was very happy to see her, so did Julie too. The two of them hugged each other while tears gathered in their eyes. After the reunion, we freed the echidnas and save our friends. We took the Warp Ring from Thrash's secret room and brought us back to our world.
The Chaotix were very happy to have her back.
And so do her.
