Defective Detectives
(Gotta Go Fast!)
(Ayla's Theme song - KC Undercover Theme Song)
(Third-person POV)
*It's been a week since the whole Chao fiasco. Today, Chris & Chuck were at the White House. Christine was showing a video of houses from Mobius in various places around the city. One of them had even landed on the roof of someone else's house*
Christina Cooper: There have been five confirmed reports so far, Mr. President. It seems that most of the buildings have landed in parts of the closet to Mystic Ruin.
Mr. President: Great, and what about all the creatures they found inside?
Christina Cooper: The bird-like ones are known as Flickies, sir.
Mr. President: And I'm assuming they all come from the same world as Sonic and Ayla. Right, Professor Thorndyke?
Chuck: Yep. It would appear that way.
Mr. President: I see . . . Now then, I'm sure you must be wondering why I asked you and your grandson here this afternoon.
Chuck: You're worried about the arrival of these creatures, and you're thinking you need to separate them from humans. You're concerned there'll be trouble between two different species unless they're . . . dealt with.
Christina Cooper: We wish we didn't have to, it's just . . .
Chuck: Don't apologize. We understand your situation completely.
*He looked at Chris. The kid just kept looking down, sad*
*That night, Chris & Chuck were at the docks. Chris walked up to the railing*
Chuck: Don't know about you, Chris, but I'm pretty hungry. Why don't we go on home and have a little of Ella's -
Chris: Grandpa? I've been thinking . . . About what the president said. Do you really think they're gonna . . . Take Sonic and Ayla away? *Chuck went to join him & put a hand on his shoulder* I mean . . . I know they're different, but why should that matter? Deep down, they're just like you and me.
Chuck: I know. I know.
*On another part of the docks was a house with a sign that said "Detective Office" above the front door. Inside was a male green green crocodile with orange eyes (20 yrs old) wearing black & gray headphones, a gold chain necklace, black shoulder pads, white gloves, black wristbands with yellow stripes & gold buckles, & black, white & yellow boots sitting at a desk. There was also a male fuchsia chameleon with peach skin, a yellow horn, & yellow eyes (16 yrs old) wearing white gloves with a purple back, dark purple & black shoes with elaborate cuffs, & studded bands around his wrists & ankles sitting in a locker*
Vector:*groans* Leave it to Charmy to take his own sweet time getting here!
Espio: I'd say we've got more important things to worry about. Like where we are for instance, and how did the three of us get here in the first place. And how do we get back?
Vector: Your guess is as good as mine, Espio. I'm just as confused as you are! Did we travel through time somehow? Or space, maybe?
Espio: Which one do you think happened?
Vector: What difference does it make!? All that matters is we're stuck here! And since we're stuck here, we oughta concentrate on a bigger question.
Espio: What's that?
Vector: Why is half of the moon missing!?
*Suddenly, a male yellow & black bee with peach skin & orange eyes (6 yrs old) wearing a black pilot's helmet with a red rim & flight goggles, a orange vest with a bee emblem on the left, white gloves cuffed with black rings, & white and orange shoes burst into the room & landed on Vector's nose*
Charmy: Hey! Wait until you hear, Vector! You won't believe it in a million trillion years!
Vector: What won't I believe?
Charmy: We got blown into a whole different world! *Espio cringed. Charmy then held up a newspaper with a picture of Sonic and Ayla on the front page* And the proof's right here in this newspaper. See!
Vector: Charmy? Charmy?
Charmy: Uh huh?
Vector: Will. You. Get. Off. My. Nose?
Espio: Alright, where are we, Charmy?
Charmy: I don't know.
*Espio fell to the floor*
Vector:*slamming his hands on the desk* I asked you to do one simple thing!
Charmy:*wags his finger* Nah-Ah.
Vector: Your assignment was to find out where we are!
*Charmy shoved the newspaper into Vector's open mouth*
Charmy: Never mind that! Just look at this. Oops, sorry.
*He took out the paper & closed Vector's mouth*
Vector: This better be good.
Charmy: Here.
*Vector looks at the paper & sees the picture on the front cover*
Vector: Huh? Isn't that - Sonic and Ayla the Hedgehogs? Let's see. "Sonic and Ayla save the day again. Sonic and Ayla risked their lives to stop the Ark from falling into the planet." Just what in the world is an Ark anyway? *tears the paper in half* None of this makes any sense!
Charmy: And there's this. *he pulled out a set of DVDS* Tada!
Vector: What's that?
Charmy: You find Sonic and Ayla's heroic deeds in this movie. Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound high spec version.
Vector: Dolby Digi - what now?
Espio: It seems their making their presence well known in this world too.
Charmy: Wow! It even has a special bonus feature! Knuckles gives everybody the tour of Angel Island in a swimsuit.
Vector: WHO WOULD WANNA SEE THAT!?
Espio: Where did you even get that anyway?
Charmy: You can find them anywhere.
*Vector grabbed the set out of Charmy's hands*
Vector: Well, let's check it out, shall we? We may be able to find the answers to our questions in this movie. Like where this place is? And how we got here in the first place. *he opened the set & pulled out a disk* Huh? What's this? How do we watch this?
*He tried to put the disk into a projector*
Espio: Perhaps we may need a special device.
*Vector & Charmy looked at him confused*
Vector & Charmy: So that's it.
*Later, Espio snuck into a store called "Vicent Electronic Shop"*
Espio: This is so disgraceful. Why did I even let them force me into using my skills for this? No better than an average thief.
*Before he left the store, he left a note saying "I will return it. Espio"*
Vector: Well done, Espio. That was fast.
Charmy: Yeah!
Vector: Now. Let's take a look at this. Let's see what the superheroes actually do. The TV'S here are really thin. *Charmy turned on the DVD. It showed something like a music video* Oh brother. Skip the opening.
Charmy: Oh! Fine. I'll watch it later.
*He pressed a button on the remote & the video then showed Sonic & Ayla zooming past Sam Speed in his race car. Battling Super Sweeper. And battling the Eggsterminater in their Super forms*
Sonic:*on the TV* Well Knuckles, your wish came true.
Ayla:*on the TV* So, be patient for just a little longer.
*It then showed battling Perfect Chaos, also in their Super forms*
Sonic:*on the TV* Is that the best you can do!?
Ayla:*on the TV* Bring it on!
*Finally, it showed both of them teaming up with Shadow to stop the Ark from crashing into the planet*
Shadow:*on the TV* You two ready!
Sonic:*on the TV* You bet!
Ayla:*on the TV* I'm always ready!
Sonic:*on the TV* Here we go!
Sonic & Shadow:*on the TV* CHAOS . . .
Ayla:*on the TV* CONTROL!
Vector: I see. It was Chaos Control. It's because of them. It's no wonder I couldn't find them.
Espio: What do you mean? You think they might be hiding somewhere in this world?
Vector: Well, there's no doubt about that.
*Suddenly, Knuckles appeared on the screen*
Knuckles:*on the TV* Yo! How you doing? I want to welcome you all to the Island -
*Vector & Espio started getting annoyed*
Vector & Espio: TURN IT OFF!
*Vector turned to the audience*
Vector: In case you're wondering, Detective Vector's the name! I'm a private eye kind of guy and the head of my very own detective agency. I may be lean, mean, and green, but behind my cool croc exterior, I'm really just a big old softie. Just don't let that get around though, you got me? I got a reputation. The detective's gotta be tough, so let's just keep this between you and me, okay?
*Charmy got in front of him*
Charmy: My name's Charmy, and I can be -
*Espio pushed him out of the way*
Espio: My name is Espio. I'm the brains in this organization. I also possess some killer spy skills. I'm smart. I'm quick on my feet. I also happen to be a ninja.
Charmy:*off-screen* He's also full of himself.
*Espio left the screen*
Espio:*off-screen* It's better to be full of myself than to be an obnoxious pipsqueak.
Charmy:*off-screen* Hey Vector, can I tell 'em about me now?
Vector:*off-screen* Aw, too bad Charmy, we're all out of time.
(Ayla's POV)
*Me, Tails, Cream, Cheese, Amy, Ella, & Chuck were watching the news. Apparently, Eggman had sent a missile to the moon. At first, we thought he was going to destroy it completely. But instead, he completely repaired it. Now half of it was made of metal*
Reporter:*on the TV* It appears the moon has been repaired by the notorious Dr. Eggman.
Tails: Is it true it only took him ten minutes?
Chuck: I have to admit, he's some scientist
Cream: I don't know. I think it looks kind of funny, don't you?
Ayla: Kind creepy if you ask me.
Amy: Oh, who cares about some silly old moon? Where's Sonic?
(Third-person POV)
*The next morning, the Chaotix were in the bushes outside the Thorndyke Mansion. Vector was looking at Cream, who was talking to Ayla, through a pair of binoculars*
Vector: Uh-huh, bingo. See what I mean, the old intuition never fails!
Espio: I have to hand it to you. It didn't take you long to find that hedgehog's hideaway.
Charmy: We had some help, *he pulls out a map* it was listed on this map of star's homes.
Espio: You mean a star lives here?
Vector: From what I dug up, Sonic and Ayla have been laying low with this kid whose Mom's a real-life big-time movie celeb.
Espio: BLAH!
Vector: Leave it to Sonic and Ayla to mingle with a bunch of mental movie people. So shallow.
Charmy: You're jealous?
Vector: You bet - Who asked you, Charmy!?
Charmy:*laughing* I got you that time, didn't I?
Vector: Never mind that, let's get back to the job at hand. We got ourselves a damsel in distress to rescue here
Espio: Well, at least we know where she is. Now all you have to do is figure out some way to get into that house.
Vector: That's right, but it's gonna be kind of tricky. They probably got lots of fancy schmancy security equipment.
Charmy:*gasp* Here, take a look! *he handed Vector the binoculars. he looked through them & saw Ella* A big scary security guard!
Vector: Man, check out the beast in the ruffly apron.
*Ella looked towards the 3 of them & they ducked down into the bushes*
Charmy: What do we do? Should we run for it?
Vector: Are you crazy? We can't turn back!
Espio: Don't forget, we're on a mission.
(Ayla's POV)
*We were sitting in the living room listening to Amy complain about my brother not being here*
Amy: Where is he? He told me he'd be back today at noon sharp!
Tails: Must've lost track of time.
*She then brought out her hammer & started swinging it like crazy*
Amy: Oh yeah? Well, this is the last time he's gonna keep me waiting!
Chris: Amy . . .
*Suddenly, we all heard a loud "BANG!"*
Amy: Uh oh. It feels like I just hit something.
*I looked behind her & saw 2 familiar figures in the bushes. A third figure fell from a tree behind them*
Ayla:*in her mind* When did the Chaotix get sent here?
*I got up & left the room*
Chuck: Where are you going?
Ayla: Just going to check something out.
*I got outside to find Vector & Charmy checking on Espio*
Vector: Hey, you okay?
Espio: I . . . Think so. But she can swing a mean mallet . . .
*Vector helped Espio stand up*
Charmy: Poor Espio.
Vector: Sly, aren't they?
Charmy: What are we gonna do?
Vector: Just you wait, Charmy. We'll give 'em a fight they'll never forget!
Charmy: Alright!
Ayla: Your gonna give who a fight they'll never forget?
*Both of them jumped & turned towards me*
Charmy: Oh no! We've been discovered!
*Vector dropped Espio & pointed at me*
Vector: So you found us, you kidnapper!
Ayla: Who you calling kidnapper?
Vector: You! That's who! You and that no good brother of yours! You two kidnapped Cream the Rabbit!
*I stared at him blankly for a few seconds & then I burst out laughing. Vector & Charmy looked at me like I had lobsters crawling out of my ears. Espio got up & also looked at me weird*
Ayla:*laughing* You - You think we kidnapped Cream!?
Vector: Well . . . Yeah.
*I took a deep breath & started to calm down*
Ayla: And where did you three get that crazy idea?
*They told me that Cream's Mom had hired them to find her & how Vector somehow came up with the idea that Sonic & I kidnapped Cream. After that I explained everything to them*
Espio: So, you're saying that Cream had been kidnapped, but by Dr. Eggman?
Ayla: Yep.
Charmy: And she was in his base when Chaos Control first activated?
Ayla: Bingo.
Vector: So I was right about her being kidnapped.
Espio: Only partially.
Ayla: So, anyway. What do you say we go inside & clear up this mess? *the 3 of them were hesitant, but agreed. we all went into the living room* Cream, there's some people that would like to meet you.
*The Chaotix came in & introduced themselves*
Chris: So, you guys are detectives and Cream's Mom hired you guys to find her?
Espio: That's right.
Chuck: And you thought Sonic and Ayla had kidnapped her?
Charmy: Well, mostly Vector.
Vector: Zip it, Charmy!
Amy: Well now that that's settled, what do we do now?
Chuck: It's possible that Cream's Mother was sent here during the last Chaos Control. So, we'll just have to look around the city and see if we can find her.
Sonic:*off-screen* No need.
*We all turned to Sonic who was standing at the door*
Sonic: Hey, look Cream, someone's here to see ya.
*Cream looked behind Sonic. Standing behind him was a female cream & orange, brown haired, brown eyed rabbit wearing a burgundy vest over a lavender & white dress, blue ascot, white gloves, & low-heeled, burgundy shoes*
Vanilla: I found . . . My baby!
Cream: Ma . . . Ma . . .
*She ran into her Mother's arms & hugged her tight. They both cried tears of joy*
Vanilla: My baby!
Chris: Cream's Mother!
Vanilla:*to Vector* How can I ever repay you, Detective Vector?
Vector: Aw, no sweat.
Vanilla: And thank you, Sonic and Ayla, for taking such good care of my little girl. I'm so grateful!
Sonic: No problem.
Ayla: You know we'll always be there for her.
