Chapter 2: Pilfer of The Quills

(Donkey Kong's treehouse)

Kremlings were swarming the treehouse as they attempted to try and break in. There were barrel traps keeping them from getting inside, but it didn't look like those traps would hold them for long. Inside the treehouse was Cranky Kong as he was setting off those traps against the Kremlings.

Cranky Kong- What is taking that brainless son of mine so long?! I can't keep K. Rool away from the Crystal Coconut for much longer!

Cranky Kong continued to set off more of those traps and more Kremlings were being knocked away. King K. Rool, General Klump, and Krusha were watching as the Kremlings were being knocked away from Donkey Kong's treehouse.

Krusha- Wow…it's raining Kremlings, boss.

King K. Rool- True, but it's only a matter of time before those traps run out and that old coot will be left defenseless.

General Klump- Right! All troops, move in!

Suddenly, something rushed past King K. Rool, General, Klump, and Krusha and knocked them all to the ground. What they saw before collapsing like bowling pins was a blue blur. When they looked up, they saw Sonic standing above them while rubbing his finger under his nose.

Sonic- I would say I just rolled a strike!

General Klump- Huh…? Where did this blue rodent come from?

King K. Rool- Wait a minute! I know you! You're that hedgehog with the super speed who's also part of the Super Mario Brothers' Team like Donkey Kong is!

Sonic- Sonic's the name and speed is my game.

Krusha tried to ram his fist at Sonic, but Sonic easily dodged it with his speed. But as K. Rool, General Klump, and Krusha got back up, they noticed Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong standing behind them.

King K. Rool- Donkey Kong?! I thought you were away from Kongo Jungle after Diddy wrecked that jetpack of his!

Diddy Kong- Where do you think we went to get my rocket pack fixed?

Donkey Kong- We went to Mobius since Sonic's friend is good at fixing things.

General Klump- Guess that explains why Sonic is here with Donkey Kong.

King K. Rool- But it doesn't explain how Donkey Kong was aware that we were attacking while we thought he was away!

Sonic- That old Kong sent us a message.

King K. Rool- Shit! I forgot that Cranky could use the Crystal Coconut like that! But we're not going to give up just because you heroes showed up. Klump!

General Klump pulled out several orange grenades, but a laser was shot from above and they all exploded in General Klump's face. General Klump made and army solute before collapsing to the ground and passing out. King K. Rool and Krusha looked up and saw Tails flying just above them with his arm cannon.

Krusha- Where did that little punk come from?

King K. Rool- He's the hedgehog's little sidekick like how Diddy Kong is Donkey Kong's. Krusha, you deal with them while I handle Donkey Kong!

Krusha- Ok, boss!

(In the bushes nearby)

Little did Donkey Kong or Sonic know, Eggman, Orbot, and Cubot were spying on them while hiding in the bushes.

Eggman- So this is why Sonic came to this jungle. To help the gorilla defend his home from K. Rool. But this might work in my favor. I need a sample of Sonic's DNA and this could help me do so.

Cubot- What do you mean by that?

Eggman- Let's just see how this plays out.

(Back over with Donkey Kong and the others)

Krusha tried to punch Sonic, but Sonic swiftly moved out of the way.

Krusha- Hold still, you pincushion! Bet you wouldn't be so smug without that speed of yours!

Then Sonic's foot smacked Krusha in the eye and made him cringe in pain.

Sonic- I'd say I'm pretty tough even without my speed.

While Krusha was pulling himself together, Tails flew up to Krusha and smacked him in the face with his tail spin attack from Sonic Adventure. Krusha attempted to squash Tails between his two palms, but Tails flew out of the way and shot Krusha from behind with his arm cannon laser.

Krusha- You ****ing pest!

But as soon as Krusha turned to face Tails, Sonic immediately rammed into Krusha's face with his spin dash and knocked him to the ground.

Krusha- Uh…TILT…

Krusha then passed out.

Sonic- I think I just got the pinball high score, Tails!

Tails- But this game is not over yet.

King K. Rool had his Blunderbuss gun and shot a cannonball at Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong. They jumped in the air to dodge the cannonball, but then the Blunderbuss began to suck up Diddy Kong similar to how Kirby inhales his foes. King K. Rool pointed it at Donkey Kong and fired Diddy Kong out of it like a bullet. Thankfully, Donkey Kong caught Diddy Kong like a baseball before Diddy could get hurt. But King K. Rool attempted to shoot another cannonball. However, Sonic used his spin dash and rammed into the side of King K. Rool's arm and through off his aim. The cannonball instead hit a nearby palm tree. K. Rool tried to use the Blunderbuss's suction, but Sonic jumped out of the way. However, some of Sonic's quills did caught in the suction. And some of them even came off.

Sonic- My quill! Oh, now you've really ****ing did it!

The next thing King K. Rool knew, Sonic had kicked him in the lower area of his body and King K. Rool was kneeling on the ground in pain with tears in his eyes.

Sonic- Guess you don't know. We hedgehogs take anything happening quills…very personal…

Before Sonic could do any more damage to K. Rool, Tails grabbed hold of Sonic's wrist.

Tails- Sonic…you really don't need to make this any messier than it needs to be. You've already beaten him.

Sonic- Alright. Still, it will take weeks for my quills to grow back.

Donkey Kong- Let's check inside and see if my old man and the Crystal Coconut are ok.

After Sonic, DK, Tails, and Diddy Kong left to Donkey Kong's treehouse, Eggman crept from the bush he was hiding in and slowly approached King K. Rool, whom he thought was knocked out.

Eggman- Those quills of Sonic are just the DNA sample I need. I'll just be taking those and…

As soon as Eggman grabbed the quills on the ground, King K. Rool grabbed hold of Eggman's wrist.

Eggman- What the?!

King K. Rool- (Groan)…going somewhere with those…

Eggman- Hey, let go of me!

King K. Rool managed to lift his head to face Doctor Eggman.

King K. Rool- Sorry doc…but I have a proposition for you…my scheme was foiled by that hedgehog…and I refuse to walk away from this empty handed…so let me in on your plan and I'll let you have Sonic's quills…we're both evil villains after all…

Eggman- Oh…alright, fine. I suppose there's not harm in it. But this is my plan and I'm in charge!
