Chapter 44: Contact

It's been 3 days since her disappearance. She sits in the cell with a ball of hers bouncing against the wall that the mystery gave her. She bounces away constantly of boredom waiting for something to happen until the door is being unlocked. It unlocks and the mystery enters.

?: "Hello."

Sally: "It's been a while."

?: "I hope they been feeding you."

Sally: "They have. So what are you guys going to do to me?"

?: "Patience. We need for something greater soon."

Sally: "ransom?"

?: "Yes."

Sally: "Obviously. My friends will come for me."

?: "I know. That's what we're hoping for."

He opens the door and waits outside.

?: "Will you please come with me?"

She is hesitant to walk out but she does what he ask with a few guards watching around. She could run but decides to make her move when the time is right. Plus it wouldn't be smart if she did. She doesn't know where she is but she has to do something.

Sally: "Where are we going?"

?: …

Sally continues to walk down a long hallway with other prison cells containing others. She can hear the cry for help from other people. Mobians and Humans trapped in the walls. She walks with him through a door and outside above a courtyard. It's day time. High noon. It's scorching sunlight like the summer. She looks around to see a jungle and trees. A lot different from the island. She looks over towards the courtyard where black arm soldiers are training and fighting each other. She sees humans and other people working on hard labor. Digging and mining for whatever minerals for their gain. She looks over at the towers to see black arm's with sniper rifles. They look like regular people except their skin is pure black and darkness. Their eyes are different. Dark, purple, and yellow outer haze and pupils. They have hair and body structures like regular humans but they're a whole different species. There are female black arm soldiers and animal mobian black arm soldiers. They all stare at princess Sally for a moment then go back to business. Sally notices all the other captured victims of the Black Arm's and finally asks the mystery a question.

Sally: "So what are you doing with all these people?"

?: "Loose ends. They all found out about us or discovered us. We kidnap them. either by accident or they stuck their nose where they didn't belong."

Sally thinks to herself for a moment and realizes the footage and sightings around the world. It makes sense for them to kidnap them. No witnesses. Of course, they already made their attention noticed by the planet. She walks past a courtyard with dead corpses of animals and people. There are weapons in the pen.

Sally: "Oh my Gosh!"

?: "This is why I wear a helmet."

She looks down and see's the bodies of dead mobians and humans. Many of different Ages from 11 it looks to older.

Sally: "You monsters! You killed innocent children?"

?: "The kidnapping part I did agree with. Killing the kids, no. The adults if only they escaped."

Sally: "And you're okay with this?"

?: "Anything to preserve the black arms."

Sally looks at him in disgust but remains vigilant. She continues to follow him and enters another part of the prison. They enter a cafeteria where black arm soldiers are eating and humans eating. They separate the humans and people from the black arms. Everyone eats the same thing. There are mistreatments but they don't torture them. a few people recognize the princess and whispers start to scatter. A few people stand up in shock to see her in the hell hole they're locked in with.

Mobian: "Sally? Princess Sally?"

She waves in nervousness and the whole cafeteria has eyes on her. she keeps walking and following the mystery leader of the place. He through another batch of doors and goes down a long hallway. He makes it towards another batch of doors and enters a shower room. No one is in there except the two of them. He tosses a towl towards her and another one with a bar of soap.

?: "Get washed. You'll be leaving soon."

Sally: "Why am I leaving?"

?: "For matters you will find out."

Sally looks at him in confusion and anger.

Sally: "You kidnap me only to let me go?"

?: …

Sally: "Well?"

?: "I should warn you that the water is a bit cold. Thanks to the scorching heat of this place it will-"

Sally: "You didn't answer my question! Why did you kidnap me?"

?: "For Ransom. That's all you need to know."

Sally: "Ransom?"

?: "Please, will you just take a shower? I'm doing this for you. plus we leave in 15 minutes. I'll leave you here. By the way don't try to run. My guards will be waiting at the door. Only one way out. They'll take you to our ship once we leave."

Sally: "Ship?"

He leaves the Showers and Sally looks around. She strips off her boots and jacket to 4th base and turns on the water. she checks to see no one is around and goes under the little bit cold water. She puts the miniature towel with the soap and starts scrubbing down all around her body.

Sally's conscience: "It seems I'm being taken somewhere else. What was the point of them taking me then? Could it be that they must've found something on the Ark? Could it be that they defeated Gloom somehow? Gotta find a way out of here."

She washes her body for 1 minute and runs the soap off her. She puts her close back on and leaves the water on running loud. She has an idea to turn all the water's on and let em run making them think she's showering. She starts turning each nob in the room as fast as she can.

Sally's Conscience: "Gotta hurry. They'll be back in 10 minutes."

She looks around for her options to escape. This place is deserted and old and looks for every possibility in the room. She notices a loose tile on some covers and sees a hole and a carving saying something.

"Freedom Awaits."

Sally: "Maybe that's why the place is abandoned."

She crawls through the whole and finds a path of tunnels. A few arrows pointing that someone left. She follows them until she comes across towards a big hole they digged the way out of. The jungle and freedom is right there. She looks at it and stops.

Sally: "I can't just leave. Not just yet. I gottoa go back. can't leave all these people here. Or I could try to make contact."

She crawls back and finds more tunnels. More holes. She finds a metal area that leads to the showers back. She hops in and finds out there's water everywhere. She notices water raining from the top. She left the showers on. The water's gotta drain somewhere. She crawls through the water until a burst happens through the doors above her. She looks up to see black arm soldiers and the mystery looking for her. She overhears them looking for her and speaking. She decides to keep moving and crawls down the tunnel. She keeps moving and moving until she faces the water current at her boots getting a bit stronger. She crawls down and it appears to be a slide somewhere. She crawls through and through until she slides down a water way leading to somewhere. She remembers she has her ring blade on her the day she got kidnapped. She activates it and light shows up. She crawls through another water path and sees a giant hole. It's starting to smell like a decomposing body. She holds her nose and looks down at the hole. She shines a ring blade on and sees a carving probably from the prisoners.

"Nothing down there but Death"

She looks down to see and notices swimming in the water and dead corpses. A few figures are swimming in the water and she gets the message. She decides to turn her blade off and notices a few guards coming with a prisoner. She's a young girl teenage girl. She's dressed a bit fashioned and talking mess towards them.

Girl: "Let me go you dicks! When my daddy finds out about this he's gonna-"

Black arm soldier: "Shut up!"

They hold her next to the edge and gets the idea.

Black Arm Soldier: "We want to know, how did you get that phone in here? Who did you contact?"

Girl: "Don't forget to search me before you kidnap me."

Black arm soldier 2: "Who did you contact?"

Girl: "Can't. don't have any signals out here."

Black Arm soldier: "Why can't we just drop her?"

Black Arm soldier 2: "not yet. Bring her in!"

2 more soldiers bring in a mobian girl who is a bit older than her. She's a zebra looking girl. The spoiled rich kid befriended her.

The brown haired human girl was talking to her just today. She was nice to her.

Black arm soldier 2: "You got 5 seconds to decide who did you contact or we're dropping her down there."

Girl: "No one. I swear."

Black arm soldier 3: "I'm not buying it."

Black arm soldier 4: "Yeah me neither."

Girl: "No one."

They lean the both of them against the edge and Sally gets a bit courageous. She immediately stops holding off the anger and frustration. They hang the both of them there ready to drop them as the zebra girl screams.

Girl: "It was her! She gave it to me! I was trying to get a signal!"

Zebra girl: "W-What?"

They hold on to them.

Black Arm soldier 2: "Sweetheart, was it yours?"

She shakes her head no.

Black arm soldier 2: "Okay, New plan. You zebra, what do you think we should do to the human?"

Zebra Girl: "Live."

Black Arm soldier 2: "You Human, what do you think about her since it was her phone?"

Girl: "Kill her! it was her phone her idea."

Black Arm soldier 2: "Okay."

The zebra girl starts crying and sniffing. The black arm soldier caress her cheek to calm her down.

Black Arm soldier 2: "I'm sorry for what's about to happen. I know you understand."

Pulls her in close away from the edge.

Girl: "Hey what?"

The black arm soldiers toss her over. Sally watches in horror, hopless to do anything about it.

Play this for dramatic effect watch?v=yTdsEObdN20

Girl: "AAAHHHHHH"

A splash hits the water. she floats above the water of dirtiness with some animals ready for dinner.

Girl: "I'm still alive you assholes! Oh wait a minute."

A bite bites down on her leg crushing her leg. A powerful screech comes from the bottom. She screams out in agony and pain as they rip apart her flesh. She screams and gets dragged underwater to be forever a memory. Sally feels like she's ready to vomit but she doesn't. the zebra girl sits there crying In her lap. The black arm soldiers leave the area except the one.

Black arm soldier 2: "I assure you I did not take any pleasure from that except that she deserved it. Learn that she tried to rat you out for her own monitary gain. I'll leave you here to think."

She sits there weeping in until a loud noise calls to her as he leaves.

Sally: "Psst!"

She notices and looks over the edge to see if she's alive. She looks down until sally calls.

Sally: "Move back!"

She hears it again and backs up. Sally jumps across and catches the ledge. The zebra helps her up before she falls.

Zebra Girl: "You're that princess from the acorn kingdom."

Sally: "I am And I need your help. We can only do this if we work together."

They can hear talking down the hallway.

Sally: "Hide behind the barrier. Stay on the ledge and don't fall."

She agrees to the idea and decides to stay behind the wall low so they won't see. She makes sure she doesn't slip and Sally hides on the other side.

Sally: "As soon as they come. We push them off. I'll attract them, you scream and pretend you fell, okay?"

Zebra girl: "Okay."

Sally bangs on the metal platform with her hand fast and she points at her and she screams perfectly like she's falling. The guards over hear it and run towards the area. Three of them make it there only to find nothing. Two of them are looking over as one stays back.

Black arm soldier: "Where did she go?"

Black arm soldier 2: "Unbelievable."

Black arm soldier 3: "Was it suicide?"

Black Arm soldier: "Maybe. I can hear the gators munching on something."

Black Arm soldier 2: "Yeah. I hear it too."

Sally sneaks up from behind and snaps the neck of the one staying back as the two looking over the side. The zebra girl gets ready and Sally rushes with her and pushes the both off.

Black Arm soldiers: "AAAAHHHHHH"

*Splash*

The gators feast and kill their next victims. The sound of them screaming and meeting the same terrible fate as that other girl have. They run away around the corner and sit down to relax.

Sally: "Not bad. Sorry you had to experience that. I wish I could've done something for that girl."

Zebra girl: "It's fine."

Sally: "What's your name?"

Calliope: "Calliope."

Sally: "Nice to meet you."

Calliope: "What are you doing here?"

Sally: "I was captured like you. I managed to slip away."

Calliope: "They will kill us for this."

Sally: "I know. I know a way out but it might be compromised."

Calliope: "Why didn't you escape?"

Sally: "Because I couldn't leave all of you alone. After seeing all you here being treated like this, I couldn't leave. Besides I'm going to find a way to make contact. Do you know anything about this place or where I could go?"

Calliope: "I been here for a week. There is this place the guards go on the third floor of the main building. They have keys to get into the wardens office every time there's a meeting. Maybe you will find something in there?"

Sally looks back at the dead black arm member with his suit and keys on him.

Sally: "Genius. And it's a good thing we kept him. You go back and tell the others while I try to make contact."

Calliope nods. Sally takes off the Guards gear and dresses up. She luckly finds keys on him.

Sally: "I'll get to the wardens."

Calliope: "I'll help too."

Sally: "No. I need you to get a few people and shower."

Calliope: "Shower?"

Sally: "In the showers there's a tile loosened underneath the floor boards. Try to escape through there and go out and find civilization or help."

Calliope: "Okay."

Sally picks up a baton of the ground from the dead guy and finds it's also a tazer.

Sally: "Yeah. This will come in handy. You go and hurry your way back. get into the showers and run."

Calliope: "Right!"

She runs off to get a few people she knows without alerting the guards. Sally walks down the tunnels and out of the sewage system of the prison. She unlocks the gate doors of the sewage system with the keys and find her way into the courtyard. She pulls out her baton and walks unsuspicious. She passes by innocents carrying boxes and weapons to a truck. She taps her baton in her hand slowly. An old woman drops a bag and collapses to the ground a bit. Sally helps aids her. She crouches and turns her over to see if she is feeling alright. a black arm soldier walks up to check.

Black arm: "What's the matter here?"

Sally: "Dehydration. She needs water."

The black arm warrior gives her his jug of water. She hands sally the jug and she pours it into the ladies mouth. She drinks knowing there is water being poured into her mouth. She opens her eyes and sees her helping.

Old lady: "Thank you."

Sally: "Your welcome."

Black arm: "Alright back to work!"

She helps her up and she continues. Sally continues walking and studying the place. She looks around and notices a door leading into the main building. She walks across the courtyard. There's a loud commotion in the building. A reaping spread of rumors stating that the princess escaped the prison spreads like wildfire until someone comes onto the monitor of the prison.

Black Arm: "Attention, Sally Acorn has escaped the prison! I want all units to go out and search for her!"

The gates of the prison open and a swarm of jet skinned tone black soldiers and oak warriors rush out to find and look for a trail.

Sally: "Great. They know now. It also increases my chance. Less guards around, the better."

She walks towards a gate with stairs inside. She grabs the key she snagged of the guard earlier with Calliope and opens the gate. She closes it back and locks and walks up the stairs. She walks towards the rooftop and meets with a black arm patrolling with his sniper rifle ready for anything.

Sally: "Hey, I'm new to this place. Any chance you could tell me where the main building is?"

Black Arm: "Yeah. It's over there."

He points towards the building with a tall tower with a light at the top.

Black Arm: "I assume you transported here from the spagonia team?"

Sally: "Spagonia…? Y-yeah, I mean Yeah."

Black Arm: "Good to know that you guys made it here alright. After all the bullshit that went down in the catacombs."

Sally: "The catacombs? What happened in there?"

Black Arm: "You don't know?"

Sally: "W-Well yes I do know but exactly what do you mean by the catacombs? I was the transfer group but I wasn't specifically in that department."

Black Arm: "Oh I'm sorry. There was a huge disaster that almost greenlit the spagonia operation I heard about. Something to do with those monsters that were sealed away a long time ago. Good thing they managed to get it out before they unleashed a nightmare."

Sally: "O-oh yeah that… I heard about them."

Black Arm: "Those things always gave me the creeps."

Sally: "Well Anyway. I-I'm gonna head to main building. Understand this place a little more.

Black Arm: "Yeah"

She walks off towards the main building of the center of the prison.

Sally: "The catacombs of Spagonia. I heard about the mess there but what exactly was he talking about? Monsters? What happened over there?"

She continues to her mission and makes way towards the building. She passes a few guards who talk about the Mission to Holaska. Another talking about the black arms history to other worlds.

Black arm warrior: "Those bastards on the ark captured lord Gloom."

Black arm warrior: "No way. How are we going to get him back?"

Black arm warrior: "We have a plan, but we need to find that princess bitch who escaped. They may have found her by now and bringing her back."

Sally overheard that situation and continues to walk towards the building. She crosses a balcony seeing a man being brutally beaten by a gang of black warriors. She sees a one down in the alley seeing a girl being held down and ravaged by two of them.

Girl: "STOP, PLEASE."

Black arm: "I gotta say. You people of mobius inhabitants have fine taste in material."

Black arm: "Yeah. Lets see what else she has under that clothing."

Sally watches in horror and looks upon the event that's about to take place. She could drop down to help but is too risky. She looks around at her options. A lot of bad guys around. it's a bit risky, all they need to do is scream and she's dead in the water. She could just walk past and leave it alone but that's not her way. She notices a camera that's pointed towards the alley and decides to take advantage of the situation.

Sally: "HEY!"

Black arms: "Huh?"

Sally: "The Boss says he see's you with the human. Camera right there. Knock it off."

Black arm warrior: "Oh c'mon. She was prawling all over us."

Sally: "You want me to tell him you said that? What's your name again?"

Black arm warrior: "Never mind. No need to tell him."

He lets go and she runs off. They walk out of the alley. Sally sighs in relief and continues towards the building. She comes across a battle between two black arm oaks duking it out in another courtyard as spectators cheer on and watch. She continues pretending to be a guard and walks towards the door. She tries to unlock it with her key but it doesn't work.

Sally: "Damn it. Not the right key."

Black Arm: "Hold on. I need to get inside too. Gotta use the bathroom."

Sally: "Same." (Perfect)

He unlocks the door with his key and opens it. She follows him towards the nearest bathroom. He enters and walks to the urinal. She locks the door behind him knowing they are all alone at a perfect time. He relieves himself as she waits for him to finish.

Black Arm: "Hey do you think they capture her yet?"

Sally: "No."

Black arm: "Why not?"

Sally: "Cause she's standing right behind you."

Black Arm: "Wait wha…?"

She snaps his neck and he falls down with the remaining piss running out of him. She picks him up and drags him towards the stalls. She takes her time with him hoping no urine hits her.

Sally: "Should've waited for him to finish. But it's not like I got my hands dirty before."

She sits him on a stall and closes his eyes. She keeps his pants down to make them think he is taking a number two. Puts his head back and open his mouth wide to make people think he fell asleep on the toilet. She grabs the key and closes the stall behind him. she unlocks the door and walks out. She continues to walk through the building and remembers what Calliope said.

Sally: "Wardens, third floor huh?"

She looks around and sees a bunch of guards everywhere. A lot of doctors captured and scientist. She continues to play it cool. She sees captured people walking with paper work and boxes for the black arms. A lot of black arms on control watching every movement of the place. She continues to walk and smack her stick in her hand. She puts it back and makes her way around looking at all her possibilities. She notices the vents and doors. She passes a few rooms where they are testing weapons and explaining plans of the black arms. She continues to walk and pass the walls and rooms. She notices a library and cafeteria near each other. A waiting lounge full of groups talking and drinking beers. She walks through and notices the mystery walking with files in his hand. He walks pasts as a few specialize guards walking with him with a body building man that looks like trouble. He's human but he's not a person anymore. More like a traitor but against his will. He has cloth wrapped around his face covering it like a hoodie. He is shirtless so he's definitely human. He has black shorts on and his arms make him look like a tank. His arms are colored black but he looks latino. Hispanic even. His body is built and his hair can be a bit seen through the cloths. His identity unknown. The whole hallway bows down and sally adapts to the environment. A creature with wings walks with them. He has sharp fangs and a sharp tail. He has a bit of spikes on his back. A growing green fire glows on the top of its head. He's like one of the dragon walks next to him.

?: "I am pleased our progress. How are our test subjects been doing?"

Dragon: "We had two casualties. The others are quite successful."

?: "Good. Any information on Gloom?"

Dragon: "He is being withheld in GUN HQ."

?: "Get a team ready. We'll be there in 36 hours."

Dragon: "Yes."

?: "Also Blake, Bring out the gases."

Blake: "For the getaway?"

?: "Yes."

They continue to walk and the hallway continues as it was. Sally follows with a group. A group of Black Arm Warriors appear in front of the trio and they stand in a line.

?: "Meeting in the board room. Now."

They all follow with a few guards. Sally takes a closer look and see's a whole lot guards around them. She follows them up to the third floor of the building. She follows along with the crowd and is almost at the wardens office. There's a commotion and noise down the hallway. The mystery and others take notice but they continue to the wardens office. She pulls out her stick and runs down towards the commotion to blend in. She reaches the crowd and sees a fight between two Humans and Mobians. They're fighting each other sending punches and hits to one another. She electrifies her stick and prepares to break it up until one of the guards stop her.

Black arm: "Hold on, lets see how it goes."

She puts it back and watches. One of them breaks the other one's nose and a tiger jumps on one of the humans who tosses him off over a balcony. Luckily the tiger lands on a box to soften the fall. He lands on his back and he grunts from the pain and a Jaguar tosses a trash can on the other one knocking him out. The last two are prepare to clash until the guards finally put an end to it and separate them. A medic goes down to check on the tiger and the knocked-out human with the broken nose. An alarm rings and the whole hallway goes downstairs and outside. Sally would join but she's so close to finding the mystery. She goes back the way she came while the main building is scattering. The mystery bumps into sally and helps her up. He drops the keys off him.

?: "Sorry."

He runs off with the big guy and Blake. She grabs the keys and heads directly towards the wardens. She waits for no one in sight to see her and unlocks the door. She sneaks in and looks around with words scribbled across the wall. She notices a laptop on the desk and a radio. She tunes the radio to make contact with someone. She grabs the laptop that's already unlocked thankfully and sends a email towards bonnie and anyone else she knows.

Sally's message: "Hello. This is Sally. I'm stuck in a prison with a whole bunch of people. I have been kidnapped. I managed to slip away and I only have little time. There are hundreds of people here. We're in some prison in a jungle. Please send help and be ready. There is something going to happen tomorrow at Central City in GUN HQ. I am located at Mazuri it seems. A prison on the outskirts in a jungle. Gloom is captured and they plan to get him back. I only have limited time. Be prepared. The Black arms are definitely back. They have an army. Their base is here and they need me for some reason. Please get here soon."

She hits send to 4 to 8 emails she quickly typed up. One of them is Tails and Bonnie.

Meanwhile

While Sally hits Send. A message pops up on tails emails in the ship. They are flying low back down to Mobius. Cream is watching outside the window while texting her mother. Sonic is sitting with knuckles playing on some video games they brought. Amy is rubbing Shadows head who woke up from the nightmare. The chaotix are talking about the information they have from the Ark Rouge is getting her nails done by Omega who agrees to help. Tails hits the email and notices it's from a person he doesn't know until he starts reading it.

Tails: "Guys, I just got a message from Sally!"

Sonic and everyone jumps up from hearing and He plays the message. He puts it wide on his screen while flying the ship back home. They all start reading and Sonic opens the pod doors.

Sonic: "We're in the stratosphere right?"

Charmy: "Yes."

Tails: "Wait Sonic, what are you doing?"

Sonic: "I'm Going after her."

He jumps out the ship. He pulls out the cyon emerald and uses it's power to shoot across the sky.

Knuckles: "I'll go with him."

Tails: "You sure?"

Knuckles: "We'll get them out. You guys make sure you warn GUN."

He jumps out to glides following Sonic's trail in the Sky.

Tails: "Was it so hard to come up with a plan first?"

Rouge: "Let them go. I'll go after them as soon as I report to General Abraham."

Shadow: "Tails, Any chance you could land us at Amy's first?"

Tails: "Yeah. But you know I could send my mover bots towards your house with Maria's stuff."

Amy: "Yeah, that'll be nice."

Tails fly's over the house of Amy rose. He drops off Amy and Shadow and flies towards his workshop. He lands in the hangar. Rouge gets out and flies away towards Central city. The chaotix unpack and leave all the intel with Tails.

Vector: "Here. You'll be needing this. we gotta get back home."

Espio: "And to check up on Aliese."

Charmy: "Yeah, gotta return to the hive."

Tails: "Thanks for the help guys."

Espio: "The viles. Where are they?"

Tails: "Shadow has them. Also, I'm gonna send some of the stuff they had on them."

Vector: "That'll be great. We'll see you later."

Cream: "Bye guys!"

Charmy: "Bye Cream, Bye tails!"

Cream: "Bye Charmy."

Tails: "See you later."

Omega walks out the ship.

Omega: "After studying the black arms and gloom, they pose a significant threat to the planet. I must return to GUN HQ. Give the information we gathered from the ark. Priority number one."

Cream: "Okay Omega, be careful."

Omega walks out towards the road and heads straight north to the United federation.

After He leaves tails walks towards his workshop and hits a button on his tablet there. He types in a few numbers and codes and summons a few robots that walk outside.

Cream: "What are those for?"

Tails: "Not for war. At least not this time."

He types in Amy's address and opens the cargo doors for the robots.

Tails: "Take all this to the address I sent you."

Movers: "Acknowledge!"

They start moving picking and carrying stuff. They move Maria's belongings on metal platforms and push off to Amy's.

Cream: "Okay tails. We're gonna head home. We gotta make sure mother is okay."

Tails: "Okay. So how was the Ark for you?"

Cream: "I have to say it was nice. Very nice people there. Also, what are we going to do about sally?"

Tails: "Sonic and knuckles should be there by now. They have their communicators on them. I'll guide them from home."

Cream: "Okay."

She hugs him and he returns the favor.

Cream: "Bye."

Tails: "Bye."

She walks out with cheese who looks behind at tails and gives the "I'm keeping my on you" look. The little chao points her fingers to her eye and back at him. Tails looks at it a bit confused.

Tails: "Did I just get threatened by Cheese?"

Black Arm Prison

After she sends the email she hopes will get through to the others. She looks around the office checking for other stuff to investigate. She notices a few documents. She reads something.

"Given the intel and the secret history of this planet. We now understand that the creatures have been put at bay. We can now move on with action to assimilating this planet. The only thing standing in our way is that meddlesome hedgehog and the traitor. We have a plan to attack at the heart of one of the most greatest superpowers on the planet. They will know what pain, suffering and loss feels like. We will move on it on 4/23. Although it won't stop there in central city. We move on the world. Chun-nan, Apotos, Spagonia, The Acorn kingdom, The dragon kingdom, Angel island, Mobian U.Z.A., Grand metropolis, Soleonna, Metal city, Knothole, Downuda, Station Square, New Mobotropolis, Central city, Empire City, The United Federation, Casino night, Mystic ruins, Adabat, Mazuri, and all other major cities of the world. The planet will soon be ours but we must secure the chaos emeralds from the freedom fighters grasp. We must find the other DNA cells for Gloom and the book to secure our plan in motion. This world will soon be ours. Make sure you all get some rest for the journey of ours will soon begin. The world will know us and we will come to be the black arms lord doom always wanted us."

Sally: "Oh my God. They're targeting all major cities of the world and countries. April 23rd?"

Sally checks the calendar on the wall and it starts tomorrow.

Sally keeps the paper in her pocket and digs deeper through the copies. She notices something on there talking about Shadow and Amy.

"TARGET: Pink Hedgehog."

Sally: "I gotta warn the others."

She grabs a file and stuffs them all with papers she needs. She starts hearing footsteps and thinks quickly. She looks up at the vents. She hurries on the table and opens the vent from the inside. She hops up and crawls through it and puts the latch back on in the knick of time when they enter the room. She listens close as the two of them and a female black arm member enters. She has a black jet skinned tone like the regular ones and has red all over her hands. She's not like shadow but she's in his triad faction of the blood.

Sally: "Shadow?"

?: "The princess got away."

Black Arm lady: "How did she get away?"

?: "She managed to slip away. Probably climbed her way out through the broken glass from the window we noticed."

Sally remembers the glass window that was broken at a high vatage of the showers. Sally whispers to herself.

Sally: "Oh thank chaos they didn't find the spot."

Black Arm lady: "I told you to keep an eye on her. Why is she even here?"

?: "It was my idea that we kidnap her. For ransom."

Black Arm lady: "Well your ransom got away. Gloom puts his faith in you more than he ever would in me."

?: "Of course he trusts you more to lead this place. A minor setback we should call it."

Black arm lady: "Minor setback? The bitch just got away because you wanted be nice."

?: "And I have my best soldiers on it tracking her. She won't get far."

Black arm lady: "Far enough to where she'll probably made contact by now with her kind. Maybe she already told us where she is and they're on their way right now."

?: "Where exactly is she going to go? I haven't told her where we are. Just a prison on the far side of the world. She shouldn't have left at all. She's probably scorching in the desert by now or eaten by a wild animal or something."

Black Arm lady: "Probably. So about lord Gloom? Is he okay?"

?: "Yes. He's being with held in the highest security in the world."

Black arm lady: "Not helpful. He's probably being tortured by now."

?: "Maybe. But he'll be free soon. My bombs are safely secured onto the right places of GUN HQ."

Sally: "Oh shit…"

Black Arm Lady: "Still he should've brought a team with him. He could've needed our help to kill these bastards."

?: "No. We have our orders. Plus we invented a concoction that'll give them an unsettling surprise."

Black arm lady: "Will it infect us?"

?: "Thankfully no. It doesn't affect us. But just to be safe we're taking gas masks."

Black arm lady: "Fair enough."

He sets out documents and letters.

?: "So about the Spagonia unit? What happened?"

Black arm lady: "There was only one but we managed to contain it. It put up a fight but we managed to contain it. Lost some of our best. There was only one."

?: "Does it talk?"

Black arm lady: "We had it locked away. We tend not to make any actual contact. Maybe it's best it doesn't be disturbed."

?: "It could unlock many secrets. Possibly a new doors to our cause. But just to be safe we'll try later."

Black arm lady: "I say we put it in a rocket and send it off to the sun where it can't hurt anyone."

?: "Later, but now we focus on the war."

The mystery pours tea into her cup

Black arm lady: "So I heard rumors about the blue hedgehog. Is it true he's fast?"

?: "Its true. Apparently he's the one who defeated Gloom on the ARK."

Black arm lady: "He defeated Gloom?"

?: "Yes."

Black arm lady: "I fine that hard to believe."

?: "Believe it or not, he was defeated."

Sally: "Yes."

Black arm lady: "So back to the topic of the princess."

?: "The blue one cherishes her."

Black arm lady: "So that's why you kidnapped her?"

?: "For the time being. He'll get what we want. Thanks to her and him. if we play our cards correctly."

Black arm lady: "Hmph. Fine. So I heard what you did to that old man. That was amazing even for you."

?: "I took no pleasure in it."

Black arm lady: "Meh, he had it coming."

?: …

They stay silent for a moment until she starts to suspect something.

Black arm lady: "what's the matter?"

?: "He had a family."

Black arm lady: "Oh. They escaped?"

?: "No. I let them live."

Black arm lady: "Why? He killed our masters family."

?: "We don't have to be like them."

Black arm lady: "Are you showing sympathy to the enemy?"

?: "Even if they're the monsters, they're people too. I understand this is war, but they were only children."

Black arm lady: "You'll understand someday."

The mystery pulls out a box with photos and documents.

Black Arm lady: "So the black comet in the frozen depths of holaska-"

?: "We'll move on that as soon as we get gloom back."

Black arm lady: "Good."

Sally seems to listened all she can listen to right now. She decides to move on. She crawls through the vents quietly so she won't make any noises. She crawls her way to another room. She drops down and notices a camera screens.

Sally: "This must be the security room. Now to-"

The door opens and it's another black arm.

Black arm: "Oh hey."

Sally: "Hey."

Black arm: "Aren't you one of the new guys?"

Sally: "Yeah. Just checking on the footage."

Black arm: "Seen that princess that escaped?"

Sally: "No. not yet. She must've escaped by now."

The black arm walks over and sets down some notes.

Black arm: "I did find out where she might be though. It turns out there were some cameras in the basement area."

He flips it to when sally jumped across and got two of the black creatures killed with calliope.

Black arm: "She's still in the prison somewhere."

He fast forwards it and sees sally change. The black arm pauses and looks at the symbol on her suit chest. The black arm turns around to meet a baton to the face and electrified from the taser baton. She smashes his head over until blood pops out. She kills him brutally.

Sally: "Man that was close. Nothing personal."

She reaches down on him and grabs the keys. picks up the body and puts him in the closet of the security room. She goes to the security footage and pours water from his water bottle on it. It electrifies and crackles shorting it out. The cameras are now destroyed.

Sally: "Destroyed their eyes in the sky. Now I can move around the prison freely"

She walks out with her baton that's cleaned. She walks out and down the hall and opens the door to the rooftops again. She heads out towards the prisoner's cafeteria.

Prison cafeteria

Calliope is talking in a circle at the table quietly so no guard can hear. The guards are watching but not paying attention. They walk around to see if anything is out of the ordinary.

Calliope: "So the showers are the only way out. Sally said there would be a path that'll tell us how to get out."

Girl: "So how do we get out?"

A guard is about to walk past them. they all stay quiet so they won't give away their plan. The guard gets closer to calliope and whispers in her ear. She understands and smiles.

Girl 2: "Who was that?"

Calliope: *whisper* "that was her."

Girl: "Wait, that was-"

Everyone: "Shhh"

Girl: "Sorry."

Calliope: "We go take a shower later right?"

Girl: "Shouldn't we tell everyone?

Calliope: "Only we can escape. She trust me. Plus, if we tell anyone else it'll spread like wildfire and we'll be caught. She made contact. She'll get us out of here."

Girl: "So what do we do about the guards? They'll keep their eyes on us."

Calliope: "She'll handle it."

Girl: "Then around the end of the day we'll get out of here?"

Girl 3: "Lets do it."

Girl 2: "Prison break."
