GammaTron: *reading Sherlock Bones* Wow. Now this is interesting. Sherlock Holmes reincarnated as an adorable puppy.
Seanzilla: Really? Huhu..interesting…*looks through online*...woah..well that's a bit much. Says here Sonic boom: Rise of Lyric is worst than Sonic 06
GT: Really now? ...Have to agree. While I like the cartoon...No. Just...Just no to the games. Not really fun without a Super Form Battle.
SZ:...good point. Plus, from what I hear, there's more bugs in Rise of Lyric than 06, one of which is pretty much game breaking.
GT: ...Game breaking? What? Do you end up in this area where you can't do a single thing?
SZ: No. You pause just as Knuckles does a double jump, and you can pretty much head to other areas you're not meant to go until later.
GT: Oh. That must be both interesting and a pain in the tush for completionists. *Beard Mode Engaged*
SZ: ?...What's with the beard?
GT: And you miss the Completionist reference. Moving on! Welcome, everyone, to Chapter 3 of A Different Path II.
SZ: As always, I'm Seanzilla115…
GT: And I am GammaTron.
SZ: And today's chapter features everyone's favorite echidna, Knuckles.
GT: I thought everyone's favorite was Tikal because she didn't get involved with Sonic Boom.
SZ: ...okay. Second fave-
Pinkie: And wasn't there another Echidna? Shade? Julie-Su?
SZ: ...Moving on...as you all know, in the first chapter, Knuckles' home, Angel Island had fallen down because the Master Emerald had shattered.
Pinkie: Yea...we're lucky it wasn't a c…
SZ:...Pinkie...why are you even here?
Pinkie: uh..because Season 5 of my show is appearing in a few days.
GT: …*pulls out a radio* Code Pinkie, people. *SCP Ponies come in, grab Pinkie Pie while three keep constant eye-contact with her, and take her out*
SZ: 0-o...uh..what was THAT?
GT: What was what?
Pinkie:*off-screen* I have a right to be there! I was promoting my show!
SCP Ponie: *off-screen* Sedate her!
Pinkie Pie: *off screen* Hey! What was that f...ZZZZZZZzzzz…
GT: ...Look, I just watched their weird Markilier video involving containment, Pinkie Pie snapping your neck when you blink or turn away while she's before you, Discord trapped in a computer, and a statue-like Rainbow Dash that phases through walls and takes you a rainbow dimension where she slowly robs your sanity. Oh, and a Rarity that kills you with 'fabulosity.'
SZ: T_T….okay, no more Markiplier if it's going to do stuff like that to you.
GT: Hey. He also played a mod of that game where he is all the SCP or SCP have his Warfstache on them.
SZ: ...Ugh…
GT: ...Disclaimer?
SZ: Just..whatever. Roll Disclaimer.
Roll: *off-screen* But I don't appear yet in the story.
GT: Not you. He meant start them.
Roll:*off-screen*Ohh…
SZ: Yeah..just..someone please start it.
Raito: I'll do it..*pulls down the screen showing the disclaimer*
Disclaimer: As usual, we don't own anything in this story, nor do we own the sonic franchise. We do though own any OCs that appear in here.
GT: Let's get started!
Knuckles groaned as he started coming too. Man...Talk about strange dreams. He dreamt he was a muscular, tall idiot who was friends with a Sonic in bandages and a scarf, a Tails wearing goggles and pilot stuff, a tomgirl, yet still well-dressed, Amy, and a crazy jungle badger named Sticks. As he began to get up, he shuddered as he recalled the badger. He was so glad he didn't turn out like that. Slowly, he opened his eyes...and they widened fully at the pair of eyes only inches away from him.
"Gah!" Knuckles freaked.
"Yah!" the owner of the eyes, an eight-year-old bee in an aviator's jacket and goggles, screamed as he zipped out of the room, "Vector, Espio, Mighty, Ray, he's awake!"
Knuckles shook his head a bit, trying to get his aching head back in shape as a magenta chameleon Mobian, bits of shinobi garb on his arms and legs, walked in. He handed Knuckles a glass of water with a tablet in it. The echidna quickly drank it and nodded to the chameleon.
"How…"
"Three days now," the chameleon informed.
"Any reason why the island isn't floating anymore?" a Mobian crocodile with black headphones on his head and a gold chain on his neck asked, entering with a red armadillo Mobian and a yellow flying squirrel Mobian in a sky-blue hoodie behind him, the bee flying above them all.
"...Gah!" Knuckles's eyes widened, "That guy broke it!"
"...What guy?" Vector asked.
"A fox Mobian in black garbs," Knuckles informed, "He and this water thing broke the Master Emerald. I tried to catch them, but the guy…" he looked down at his arm, sporting some wrapping on it, "...this happened."
"Your arm was popped out of its socket," the chameleon informed, "Whoever they were...they were stronger than you."
"Tch," Knuckles growled, "When I get my hands on that guy, I'll show him who's stronger." he got out of the bed, "But for now, I need to find the Master Emerald."
"Huh? But, Knuckles, didn't it get broken?" Charmy asked.
"Yes. But it's special," Knuckles informed, "Whatever created the Master Emerald seemed to make a sort of...failsafe for it. When it's shattered, it divides itself up into shards that can be collected and reform into the Master Emerald." he looked at them all, "And, as much as I hate to admit it, I can't find them alone."
"...How much you paying?" the crocodile asked.
"You help and I won't kick you guys off the island for not paying any rent."
"We're hired," the crocodile confirmed.
"You should've kept your mouth shut, Vector," the armadillo facepalmed.
"So this is Station Square? It's bigger than the pamphlets back home said, ne Nii-chan?"
"All the more reason I was against us coming here."
"Mou, Nii-chan, you really shouldn't worry all that much."
Turning a corner, the female of the two mixed breed Mobians looked at the map she had unfolded. The two were hedgehog-wolf mixes, both around Sonic's age, both sharing near-peach colored muzzles. The male of the two was slightly taller than the female with brown fur/quills on his body. Over his upper body was a black jacket with a katana sheathed on his back, the guard curved downward at both ends, while his feet were covered in black and white running shoes. He had green eyes that were narrowed as he looked around for trouble while his right cheek sported a crescent moon mark.
The female of the two had her white quills/fur done up in a ponytail ending at mid-back with a pink braid in it. She wore a pink tee with the star on the front stretched by her bust while also exposing her navel, a blue vest over that, and pink jeans. Pink and yellow shoes with stars on the sides covered her feet while her black gloves sported gold stars on them. She began to look over the map with her blue eyes.
"Oh, this is gonna be great!" the girl beamed, "There's so much to do here, Nii-san."
"...Yea..sure…" the male said, his eyes scanning the area for anything suspicious
"Mou...Nii-san, I'm sure we're fine," the girl assured before looking back at the map, "Oh! They have a Chinatown, a Francetown, and a Japantown here. You don't find that in a lot of cities."
"...Think there's a..." the male paused before he stopped, "..Ellie, stay close."
"Huh?" the female stopped, "Nii-san, this better not be another mistake with just a dog coming around the corner. You're still having to pay off those medical bills for the poor Akita Inu."
"I know that. But…" the male paused as he unsheathed his sword, revealing the blade to be a pure black, "I sense something...something..lifeless."
"Lifeless? Y-You mean...z-z-z-zombies?" Ellie squeaked.
"No...I mean something like a machine…" The male stated, keeping his ground as Ellie stayed near him. A moment of silence had past before the male hedgewolf blocked an incoming shot at him with his blade.
"Eek!" Ellie yelped as the male reflected another shot.
"...Alright! Whatever you are, come out!" the male barked as he stood his ground.
It was silent for a few moments before something charged at him. The hedgewolf quickly sliced it in two, revealing it to have been a robot that seemed to try-and fail-at imitating a ladybug of sorts. Ellie gasped as she saw a little puppy fall out of it, stuck in a green-tinted glass-like container that bounced a few times before breaking open, letting the puppy run off with a whimper. The hedgewolf quickly blocked three more shots as three robots resembling wasps with lasers instead of stingers flew around the two.
"N..Nani?1 Wh-what are these things?!" Ellie gulped as she stayed close to her brother.
"I have no idea," the male replied, growling as he jumped up and sliced one of the three wasps in two, releasing a bird from it that quickly flew off once the container broke, "But right now, I really hate that they're using animals like this."
"H..ha-kya!" Ellie screamed as she felt something drag her down to teh ground, making her wince a bit in pain. She then looked behind her before freezing, seeing some sort of mechanical tentacle gripping her leg, "?!"
"Ellie?" the hedgewolf glanced behind him before spotting the tentacle, quickly slicing it off her leg, "Rrrr….This is bad."
"H...h...hai," Ellie whimpered as she shot back up, staying real close to her brother as she shook like a leaf.
The male hedgewolf grunted as he blocked the shots of the last two wasp robots, unaware of a pair of figures getting closer. It wasn't until he heard Ellie yelp and the sounds of a struggle did he turn around to see a robot, humanoid rooster running off with a green robot on treads and drills for hands and a nose...both carrying a large sack with something in it.
"We got it! We got it!" the rooster robot laughed, "Oh, Dr. Robotnik is gonna be so happy with me!"
"No, he's gonna be happy with me!" the drill robot argued.
"Oi! Get back here!" the hedgewolf growled before he barely jumped back from another ladybug-like robot, "Onore…!"
"Sorry, bub! But we need this little lady for something Special! Ha-ha haha!" the rooster laughed as they turned a corner.
"Ellie!" the hedgewolf shouted before slicing an orange monkey robot that tried to get him, releasing a bear cub (GammaTron A/N: BEARS!) from it.
The two robots quickly went down a few corners, essentially losing the male hedgewolf.
"Oh boy, oh boy! We are gonna be in such good graces with Dr. Robotnik!" the drill robot beamed.
"You mean I will be in such good graces with Dr. Robotnik," the rooster smirked.
"No, me!"
"Me!"
As the two started arguing, Ellie managed to get her head out of the sack. With a few moments of struggling, she managed to get out and ran off.
"No m-Hey! She's gone!" the drill robot freaked.
"Nice job, numb-bolts!" the rooster frowned, "You let her get away."
"No, you did!"
"No, you!"
"You!"
"You times five!"
"You times twenty!"
'Mou...My map's gone...Nii-chan's missing...G-Gotta hide…!' Ellie thought as she ran off.
"Aw...Why do trains have to be so fast?" Charmy pouted as the six Mobians exited the train station.
"They have to be in order to get people around," Vector replied as he looked down at his now-empty wallet, "All my money...gone…!"
"I told you third-class would've been a good idea," Mighty rolled his eyes, "That way, we would've had enough to get some lunch when we find some of those emerald shards, but noo…You wanted seats near the front of the train."
"..." Knuckles looked around, "I can feel the Master Emerald's presence in this city. Split up and look for large shards of the Master Emerald."
"Huh? Hey, wait a second. I…!" Vector began before Knuckles ran off, "...I hate when he does that."
"So where do we go first?" Charmy asked, "I saw there!"
"It's closed for repairs," Espio informed, pointing at the floating sign near the elevator.
"Aw man~!" Charmy whined.
"..Still better keep an eye o-" Victor began before he heard an explosion nearby, followed by what sounded like an angry roar/howl, "Oh what now?!"
"Trouble is afoot," Espio stated, looking in the direction the explosion had come from.
"...We better follow it," Mighty suggested.
"Good idea. Chaotix, move out!" Victor declared as he ran to where the explosion occurred...just in time for him to be ran over by a group of freaking out Badniks, some missing a few limbs and one trying to keep its animal container inside, "...Ow."
"Wow. That's the fifth time that's happened in the last three days," Charmy noted, "But the first time we've seen him get run over by Badniks of all things."
"It seems D-Dr. Robotnik's here…" Ray gulped.
"Looks like. But..who or what could've do-" Mighty began.
"TEME!" a voice roared, making the group turn to see what looked like a hedgehog-wolf fusion charging in the same direction the Badniks ran.
"...Double Ow," Vector groaned after he had been run over the by the hedgewolf.
"Whoa now!" Mighty exclaimed, grabbing the hedgewolf by the back of his jacket and lifting him up, making sure the katana was not near him, "What's all the hubbub, bub?"
"Out of my way!" the hedgewolf growled as he elbowed Mighty in the face, causing him to drop him as he ran after the Badniks again.
The Badniks squeaked before jumping into an open sewer hole and quickly covered it, steel spikes soon poking out of it to show it had been sealed up. The hedgewolf skidded to a halt and started to hack at the cover until his body stiffened.
"Ease yourself," Espio advised, giving a small tug on the wires he had bound the hedgewolf with, "You won't be able to do anything in your state right now."
"..G...GRAAAA!" the hedgewolf roared as he sliced a nearby car in half with a clean slash from his sword.
"You forgot the arm!" Charmy freaked.
"I let him keep it moving for that," Espio stated as he released the hedgewolf and moved before him, the brown hedgewolf panting, "Calmer?"
"...H...hai..." the hedgewolf nodded before punching the ground, "Damn it…"
"Yeesh. What did those guys do to you?" Charmy asked.
"...Those bastards kidnapped my sister," the hedgewolf frowned as he stood up, sheathing his sword.
"A kidnapping, you say?" the hedgewolf hopped back in surprise at seeing Vector suddenly beside him, marks from being trampled by the Badniks and himself still on the crocodile, "So who was the kidnapped?" the hedgewolf glowered at him, "Easy now, bub. We're the Chaotix, top notch detectives."
"..."
"If Robotnik is after your sister, then it would be better to have more people looking for her," Espio advised.
"...Fine…" the hedgewolf sighed a bit in defeat before pulling out a picture from his jacket's pocket, "Here's what she looks like."
"Oh wow! She's pretty~!" Charmy awed.
"Down, boy, down," Vector joked as he pulled Charmy away from the picture to get a good look, "Hmm...Okay then. Name's Vector, the leader of this group of detectives. You got a name so we don't have to keep saying 'hey, you' or 'yo, buddy'?"
"...Zane. Zane Tsukikaze. And the girl in the picture is my sister, Ellie."
"Well don't you worry. We'll help ya find her no sweat!" Vector assured, "First things first, back to the scene of the kidnapping!"
'Aren't we forgetting something?' Mighty thought as the six went off.
Knuckles sneezed and nearly fell off the side of city hall.
Roll looked around in her folding chair, not sure what to make of it all. There was a big place of water just ahead of them, so why have a small one near it? Didn't make a bit of sense. In the folding chair beside her, Sonic raised up his sunglasses a bit to look at her.
''Show her around the city' he says. 'It may help her memory' he says,' Sonic thought, 'All I got yesterday was a girl who was just zipping all over, looking at everything in confusion and awe, getting stuck in a jewelry shop because of a gold egg the size of my head that she had picked up, and a messed up hotel room from her jumping on the bed.'
"Hmm?" Roll blinked when she spotted something in the pool, making her blink a bit as she tilted her head.
"Don't even think about it, Roll," Sonic warned, "You're in enough trouble with the bed here."
However, Roll seemed to ignore him as she leapt into the pool. The resulting splash didn't get out of the pool, except for one spot. Sonic gasped and spluttered as he shook the water off before glaring at Roll, who had a rather large fish with teeth in its mouth in her mouth, as she exited the pool.
"...Really classy, Roll. REALLY cla-" Sonic began with a frown before the fish coughed up something, making the hedgehog and hedgefox look to see it was a midnight blue ocarina, "What's this?" he knelt down and picked up the object, "I think I've seen this before when I was going through Asia a few weeks ago on a jog. An...okra-marina?" he glanced over at Roll, who still had the large fish in her mouth, "...You want to eat eat that, don't you?" her wagging tail said it all, "..." he opened his mouth before his ear twitched, making him look up, "An engine?"
In the sky was what looked like a blue-ish colored biplane, which had smoke coming out of the engine. Piloting said plane was a familiar twin tailed fox, who had trouble trying to keep it in the air. Roll tilted her head as she watched it go down in a curve with a small spin to it.
"Wha? Tails?! Look out, you're gonna crash!" Sonic freaked before wincing as the plane crashed a bit away from the area, "Aw...What am I gonna do with that kid?" looking over at Roll, who was still keeping the fish in her mouth, "Let's go get him." Roll let out a muffles whine, "...Fine. We'll get him and then we'll cook the fish you caught."
Roll's tail shook happily in response as she ran ahead to the spot where Tails' crashed, Sonic following after her as he put the ocarina away in his quills. Within seconds (and a total of roughly two kilometers from where he began) Sonic stopped beside Roll, who was tilting her head as she and a Motobug were just looking at each other. Looking around, Sonic blinked twice as he saw the beach was literally covered with Badniks.
"Here we go again…" Sonic facepalmed.
"O...okay. I think...I lost them," Ellie panted as she rested against a palm tree, 'What...What were those metal things? Why were they after me? An...' she paused she felt something missing from her pockets, causing her eyes to widen, "Oh no…" she whispered as she frantically began to search her pocket,s "Where is it? Where is it?!" when she couldn't find it, she fell to her knees "M-Maybe it just fell out around here!" she started to crawl around the palm tree, sifting through the sand and sand-like dirt, "I can't have lost it. I just couldn't have!" It was then a loud splash caught her attention, making her slowly turn before freezing, seeing a robotic octopus like badnik popping out of the water, staring at her, "..."
A few seconds later…
'EEEYAAAAAAAAAHHH! TATSUKETE!" Ellie screamed as she ran as fast as she could, wanting to get away from that thing's nasty, nasty tentacles.
The Badnik let out a series of blurbles as it chased after her. It had a task assigned to it, so it would not fail! It would do whatever it took to capture the Mobian before it and present it to Robotnik! Ellie tripped with a yelp.
"Ooh~! I hate Tentacles!" the female hedgewolf screamed as she got back up and ran onto a pier, the badnik stopping in its tracks, "Huh? Wh-Why'd it stop?"
The badnik let out a gurgle like scream as he high tailed it out of there, making Ellie blink in confusion before a loud splash caught her attention. Slowly turning towards the splash, she watched just in time to see an orca come out of the water. Her eyes widened as her pupils turned to dots, noticing it was twice the average size of an orca and sported a star-shaped mark on the forehead.
"A...A Barracuda Orca," Ellie squeaked.
We interrupt this chapter to bring you 'A Moment With the Authors.'
GammaTron: *wearing a lab coat while standing by Seanzilla115, also in labcoat* The Barracuda Orca, a subspecies of the whale family, resembles its cousin the Orca. However, while its cousin prefers smaller fish, Barracuda Orca have adapted a rather...unique...taste.
Seanzilla115: Like in this case, certain mobians, like hedgehogs...*hears a growl*...please tell me that was your stomach, GT.
GammaTron: No. *taps the glass container, showing a captured Barracuda Orca in it* That was this one. As SZ was saying, the Barracuda Orca has developed a taste for larger fish and certain types of land mammals, such as great white sharks, squids, giant turtles, and-as in this case-Mobians. As such, certain laws have been made to deal with safety for all Mobians in the law made by the UN in...*glass starts breaking* Uh oh.
SZ: Run and Scream time now?
GT: Indeed.
Both: *run and scream as the glass shatters, letting the Barracuda Orca come out*
This has been 'A Moment with the Authors.' We now continue our story.
"AAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEE!-!-!-!-!" Ellie screamed as she ran along the pier, the Barracuda Orca chasing after her while destroying the pier in the process, "Someone, Tatsukete!"
Roll's ear twitched as she stopped for a moment, hearing what sounded like screaming in the distance.
"Roll, come on!" Sonic called from atop a lighthouse on the small bit of land they were on, "Tails landed this way!"
"...S..Sonikku. T….t...Tatsukete…" Roll managed to get our, motioning to where the screaming was coming from.
"Yes, Roll, that's where Tails crashed," Sonic called down, "Now get up here. I found a way to get over to that way without having to go in the ocean!"
Roll tilted her head. Couldn't they just swim? Regardless, she still went up there.
Ellie panted and gasped as she stumbled onto land, the Barracuda Orca long gone. She groaned before collapsing onto her face in the sand, her entire body covered in sweat and her clothes drenched in water when she had fell into the water before climbing back up. It was only the smell of metal burning that made her look up to see the face of a knocked-out fox Mobian just inches from her own.
"O-oh my!" the female hedgewolf gasped as she managed to pull herself up and checked to see if the fox was alright, "O-oi! D..daijoubu?"
The fox let out a groan. Looking around, Ellie saw a burning wreckage near them, barely making out a propeller and misshapen wings from either the intense heat or the crash. Looking back down at the fox, she saw he had a few small injuries and a cut on his forehead.
"Mou...what am I supposed to do?" Ellie whimpered before looking down at her clothing, "...Nii-san isn't going to like this…"
A few minutes later, she was minus a vest and the fox Mobian was now sporting a blue set of wraps around his head. As she finished, she heard someone whimpering. Turning to look at the shore, she saw a blue hedgehog and a yellow hedgefox, the latter hugging the former for dead life it seemed.
"Yes, yes. I know that it was a Barracuda Orca," the hedgehog sighed, "But seriously, you just need to hit it on the mark and it'll go fleeing like a little baby, Roll." the hedgefox just let out a frightened whimper, "...Remind me to never let you watch Barracuda Orca-nado."
"...Ano, e-excuse me!" Ellie called, catching the two's attention, "I..I need some help. I found this boy injured and near a flaming wreckage. I managed to bandage him up, but that's all I could for now."
"Tails!" the hedgehog exclaimed as he zipped over, "Oh man. Ugh, I told him he shouldn't have tested this thing out without me or Knuckles in it as well." he looked over at Ellie, "Thanks for bandaging his head up. He may be smart, but he's pretty much an idiot this time."
"I...I see…" Ellie noted.
"I don't know if I should ground him for it or treat him to something for acting like I would've done."
Ellie blinked twice at that. It was a hand on her shoulder that made her look up at the other girl there. Roll, she believed was the girl's name. She had a concerned look on her face directed at both her and at the fox.
"...I'm sure he's alright. I-" Ellie began before she spotted something sticking out of Sonic's quills, making her eyes widen, "Th...that's...O-oi!"
"Hmm?" Sonic blinked as he turned towards her, "Yeah?"
"Th..that ocarina in your quills..wh-where did you find that?"
Roll let out a squeak as she held up the bones of a fish. Ellie squeaked in surprise at the sight as Sonic facepalmed.
"Son of a…! Roll, you were supposed to wait!" Sonic groaned, earning a sad look from Roll, "Yeah, yeah. You were hungry, I know. But, well..." he looked at Ellie, "That's where it came from before Roll ate the dang thing. Had it in its mouth and coughed it out once Roll caught it in the pool."
"...C..can I see it?"
"...uh..sure," Sonic shrugged as he pulled the ocarina out of his quills, "Not sure wh-"
"That's it! My ocarina!" Ellie gasped as she ran over and took it, "I've been looking for this! I..I had dropped it when those machines chased me and separated me from nii-san!"
"You mean the Badniks?" Sonic asked before flinching as the burning wreckage made a small crash from one of its wings falling over, "...Maybe we should move elsewhere before it decides it wants to blow up or something?"
"Hai."
"Uhn."
"Not in here," Charmy informed, poking out of a trash can.
"Not under here," Mighty informed before dropping the car back down gently.
"She's not up here!" Ray called from a balcony.
"Okay, so where were you when they jumped you both?" Vector asked as he and Zane stood together.
"We had just left the train station and were looking around before they jumped us. I was holding them off before some chicken robot and a drill robot grabbed Ellie and ran."
"Sounds like Scratch and Grounder," Vector noted, "A pair of idiots that were made when Dr. Robotnik was in an...well...a phase. Look, we don't ask why or what it was about, but he was going through a phase and we all agreed we'd leave it at that."
"...Robotnik…" Zane repeated in a dangerous tone, "Did you say...Robotnik?"
"Judging from the tone, you've been having trouble with the guy as well," Vector noted, "Quite a bit of trouble if the way I saw your pupils dilate just now was any sign."
"...That teme…" Zane growled as he clenched his hands, "He...he had hired someone to go after my father…"
"Your father?" Vector repeated.
"He was Mobius' Greatest Swordsman until…" Zane paused as his hands moved up to the moon-shaped scar on his cheek, "Until that bastard killed him…"
Vector nodded. He was going to say something when Espio appeared before them.
"I've found Scratch and Grounder in an alley nearby. They apparently dismantled each other in an argument over credit on getting the kidnapped," Espio informed, "Furthermore, the sack they had used, evident by the few white quills and fur I found in it, was void of life. Most likely, she had managed to escape but has gotten lost."
"...I see…." Zane noted as he calmed down a bit, relieved his sister got away.
"Still, this is a good lead," Vector noted.
"True," Espio nodded before pulling out a shard of emerald the size of a baseball bat, "Especially after I found this hidden in Grounder's torso."
"Well I'll be," Vector grinned, "A shard of the Master Emerald. Good day so far, then. Okay, Espio, still got those quills and the fur?"
"Yes," Espio nodded.
"Charmy!" Vector called, "Ray!"
"You rang?" Charmy asked.
Vector held up a pair of leashes and fake dog noses. Charmy and Ray groaned. Minutes later, the two were sniffing around, wearing the fake noses and leashes. Zane glanced at Vector.
"What? We don't have the budget for a real bloodhound, so we got them to learn how to sniff like bloodhounds," Vector shrugged.
"...Does this sort of stuff always happen with you guys?" Zane asked Espio, sweatdropping a bit.
"More often than not," Espio rubbed his forehead in trying to fight off the migraine this scene was making for him, "At least Knuckles isn't here."
Knuckles grumbled as he wiped the last bit of oil off his face. He should've checked before looking under that car for the shard he was sensing. Still, at least he got it once the car had stopped letting out the oil.
GT: Not bad of a way to introduce your two OCs, eh SZ?
SZ: Eeyup.
GT: Anything you liked in this chapter?
SZ: Hmm...hard to say...except maybe when Ellie encountered Tails and helped treat his wounds as best as she could.
GT: Ah. I liked that as well. Gives good points to her character.
SZ:*nods*..Though, I can't help but wonder why Robotnik wanted to kidnap Ellie in the first place.
GT: No clue right now. Maybe we'll find out in a later chapter.
SZ: Possibly. Well, let's hope it's nothing bad, like...*shudders*...what happened in part one of the season 5 premiere of MLP: FiM.
GT: Amon Pony, people. Amon is now a mare Pony.
SZ: An insane one at that too.
GT: Now all we need is a Korra Pony. A Korra stallion Pony.
SZ: E..wait. Why would the pony version of Korra be a stallion?
GT: Because Season 5's Amon Pony is a female. Gender bending.
SZ: Ahh…
GT: Yep. Well, that's all the time we have for this chapter. So we'll see you all in the next chapter. *waves* Bye-bye!
SZ: Ja ne, minna-san.*goes to play Animal Crossing; New Leaf*Okay, time to check on my town.
