Chapter Five: Quest for Radiance
"How is life?" asked Jet to Metal Sonic.
"I have heard that Blaze is on a quest with the other guys. Shall we go too?" said the speaking robot who looked sad.
"Are you sad?" Jet said with observance.
"Yes," Metal looked over at the sleeping Sonic on the bed. "Sonic has been sleeping like a snail. Snails sleep for three whole years."
"Trudat," said Jet, he then dusted off his origami collection. He thought deeply about Storm and Wave. He wished for their survival in such harsh times of ring-collecting.
The door was suddenly kicked open.
"Who is that?" asked Jet, ceasing his drawing of Milhouse van Houten.
"It is I," said Ray the Flying Squirrel.
"Oh!" said Jet with remarkable hawkness. "I remember your wedding abilities, dude."
"Aye," said Ray, crossing his arms to show off his massive biceps. He was the hunkiest minister in all the land. Everyone wanted him to be at their wedding.
"What brings you here to our humble abode?" said Metal, skinning a carrot between proper index and thumb. "We are making salad and that is totally holy, bro."
Ray observed the carrot and then turned to Sonic. "I see he sleeps, but he shouldn't wake."
Jet was taken aback. "Why not, guy with abs?"
Ray shook his head with worry and distress. "I saw the future last night in the Crystal Coconut. It said that evils were coming to do gnarly things to the environment."
Metal was a staunch environmentalist and hated the sound of this. "I will shoot evil with my blasters of lasers." He stood on the table and clenched the carrot scraps between his iron toes (index and big).
"Yes, but this future is really bad because of a group of guys with mighty strength," said Ray. "They are called the DOOMERS. You have to say it with all capital letters."
"I see, I think I once heard of them fellows on the internet," said Jet. He ran to his computer and checked his emails. Sure enough, he had a coupon for Timmy-O's.
"What do we do to stop such evils?" asked Metal Sonic worriedly, defending his carrots from a cricket.
"We need to start a rad team of rad dudes with rad muscles," said Ray. He headed outside. "Gather your stuff and follow me, boys. And bring sleeping hedgey with ya!"
