(Gotta Go Fast!)

(Ayla's Theme song - KC Undercover Theme Song)


(Ayla's POV)

*It's already been a week since Chris' Birthday. But what I find really strange is that we haven't heard anything from Dr. Eggs-for-Brains since our scuba diving adventure in the Grand Blue Sapphire Sea. "I was just getting back from band practice with Tyler, Izzy, & Jake when I heard shouting coming from the living room*

Chris & Chuck:*off-screen* Go Gran Gordo!

*I looked into the living room & saw Chris & Chuck sitting on the couch watching TV. On the screen, was fat guy with an orange mustache dressed in green, red, & yellow wrestling outfit. I knew right away who that was. I went up to Sonic, who was leaning against the couch with his tongue sticking out in disgust*

Ayla:*whispering* Is that . . .

Sonic:*whispering* Yep.

*I face-palmed. And just when I thought Eggman couldn't get anymore ridiculous. This is probably a get-rich-quick scheme. Sonic & I both looked over the couch*

Chuck: Oooh! What a brutal move! Give him another!

Chris: He's not holding back today!

Sonic: Um . . . Guys. You know "Professional Wrestling" is fake, right? It's all staged.

Chris: No it's not! I've seen enough on my adventures with you and Ayla to know real action from fake! El Gran Gordo is the real deal! *my eyes widened. I've never seen Chris so steamed. he then pointed at the screen. El Gran Gordo's opponent looked dizzy & was covered in sparkles* Look at his opponent! He can barley stand!

Sonic:*pointing at El Gran Gordo* Chris, there's no way he could fight that for real. It's obviously Dr. Eggman in disguise.

*Chris then put my brother in a head-lock*

Chris: You take that back! El Gran Gordo is a true hero!

Sonic: Gak! But - So out of shape!

Ayla: Chris, there's no need to get violent!

*Chuck pulled them both apart*

Chuck: Now - Now, boys. It can be hard to tell what's real and what's not on television, *he then pulled out 2 tickets from his lab coat* so your Father got us a two tickets to El Gran Gordo's next match here in Station Square.

Chris: Seriously! Awesome! *he then waved the 2 tickets at us* Too bad there are only two tickets, Sonic. You and Ayla won't get to see how awesome El Gran Gordo is in person.

*Sonic looked at the TV & got a look in his eye that I knew all too well*

Ayla:*whispering* I know that look. You've got an idea, don't you?

Sonic:*whispering* Bingo! *out loud* If you'll all excuse me, I have to make a phone call. *he then ran out of the room & went straight for the phone in the entrance hall* Hello? Tell Nelson Thorndyke, Sonic the Hedgehog would like to speak to him.


*The next day, the whole city was buzzing with excitement. Sonic had somehow managed to be El Gran Gordo's opponent in the next match tommorow night. But I think Chris was the most excited*

Chris: I can't believe this! My two biggest idol's! The world's greatest heroes! One on one!

Sonic: Don't geek out too much, Chris. I don't really think it'll last too long.

*Suddenly, a very loud shout made me & Sonic both jump off the couch in surprise*

Knuckles:*off-screen* IT WON'T WITH A LAZY ATTITUDE LIKE THAT! *we turned around & saw Knuckles, holding a mega phone**on-screen* I've seen this Gordo guy in action. He's tough. If you want to stand a prayer of a chance, you need to get in shape. And I'm just the guy to train you!

Sonic: Oh, for the love of . . .

*And that's how Sonic got stuck training with his new coach in the front driveway. Knuckles insisted I come along, as his assistant. He was having Sonic doing push-ups, sit-ups, & jumping rope*

Knuckles: Push it, Hedgehog! Do you want him to walk all over you!? Work it, Hedgehog! Or do you want this to be over in the first round!? Pick up the pace, Hedgehog! The big fight is tommorow night! *Knuckles ended the training when evening came* Good job, Sonic! I think you stand a chance now.

*When he was gone, I put my hand on Sonic's shoulder*

Ayla: Even without that training, Sonic, I know you can beat him.

Sonic:*smiling* Thanks, sis.


*The next night, the arena was packed with fans waiting for the fight to begin. Chris & Chuck were also in the stands wearing El Gran Gordo merchandise. Knuckles & I were waiting in the ring*

Scarlet Garcia: This is Scarlet Garcia reporting live from Station Square Gardens! Tonight's high- profile charity fight will be between super-star heroes Sonic the Hedgehog and El Gran Gordo. Emotions run high tonight! From excitement to fear for each fan's favorite! And no matter what's drawn you to tonight's Clash of the Titans it's a fact that everyone is paying attention!

*The first one to run into the arena was my brother*

Announcer: In the blue corner! Weighing in at thirty-five kilograms! The champion from another world, Sonic the Hedgehog! *then El Gran Gordo walked into the arena* In the red corner! Weighing in at one hundred twenty-eight kilograms! The new hero for the new age, El Gran Gordo!

*I looked at El Gran Gordo's manager & trainer*

Ayla:*in her mind* Is that Decoe and Bocoe?

*The bell rang & the fight began*

Sonic: All right, Eggman. You've had your fun. But enough is enough!

*He charged at the wrestler with a spin dash, but missed as El Gran Gordo threw his cape to one side like a bull fighter*

Dr. Eggman: Ol`e!

Sonic: Listen, Doc. The bad spanish and the costume were pushing it, but covering me in sequins crosses the line! *suddenly, Sonic was being pulled down to the floor* Hey! Something is . . . Pulling me down!

*That's when it hit me*

Ayla:*in her mind* So that's how he's been winning his fights.

*El Gran Gordo went in for a body slam*

Sonic: I get it now. You've rigged these fights! *he dodged every attack El Gran Gordo threw at him* For shame you shame! These people believed in you! I was just going to expose you for being a fake personality, but now I'll expose you for being a fake athlete too!

Dr. Eggman: My mini robots may have given me a slight edge, but my victories have been my own!

Sonic: I'll believe that when I see it, you over stuffed enchilada! If you can move, that is!

*Knuckles & I looked at each other & started to investigate*

Bocoe: I KNEW THIS WOULD GO BADLY, BUT NOT THIS BAD.

Decoe: I CAN'T WATCH! TELL ME WHEN IT'S OVER!

Knuckles: Hey! What are you two doing here!? Are you trying to rig the fight!?

Ayla: I suppose we shouldn't be surprised.

*Suddenly, we heard cheers coming from the audience. We look up at the arena & saw Sonic & El Gran Gordo actually able to move & charging at each other. They were now in a deadlock*

Knuckles: There! They're back to fighting! That's better.

Decoe: WHAT'S GOING ON!? THEY'RE STILL COVERED IN MINI-BOTS!

Bocoe: LOOK DECOE! *he pulled a broken wire out from under the arena* SOMETHING CHEWED THROUGH THE POWER CORD!

Decoe: WHAT COULD CHEW THROUGH A CORD THAT THICK?

Ayla: Who cares? Go, Sonic!

*In the arena, Sonic & El Gran Gordo were going at each other like crazed panthers*

Sonic: Now to end this farce . . .

Dr. Eggman: Sonic, wait! Let me stay as El Gran Gordo and our feud is over! Please let me stay their hero!

*Sonic looked at Chris, who had tears in his eyes. He helped El Gran Gordo up*

Sonic: No good can come of this.

Dr. Eggman: You mean it? *he held Sonic up by his wrist* We have a winner! Let's hear it for the gracious Sonic the Hedgehog!

*The crowd cheered. I got up on the stage & hugged my brother*

Ayla: Great job, Sonic: I'm very proud of you.

Knuckles: Very classy, Sonic. You could've unmasked him and had a total victory.

Sonic: Yeah, but letting him keep it was a victory in it's own way. Besides, what harm could it do?

*If we only knew how wrong he was*
