The Island Uncovered
PART 9- THE ULTIMATE STRUGGLE!!!
(Zachary has just absorbed all of the Chaos energy! Tails has just purified the heart of the Chaos creature! Knuckles and his past self are knocked out! Sonic is on his way! What happens next is anyone's guess!!)
Zachary: This is PERFECT! Now I can become a GOD!!! I think I'll start by making myself known..
(Zachary steps out and begins a small rampage through the city, destroying several buildings)
Locals: AAAGGH!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!
Zachary: That's it, you FOOLS! Run, but you can't escape!!
(Zachary is about to punch the ground to cause an earthquake when Tikal runs onto the scene with Sonic)
Tikal: NO, STOP! You mustn't!! This whole area lies right on top of a tectonic plate margin! If you punch the ground, this whole area will be destroyed!!Millions will die!!
Zachary: That's perfect! I'm sure I've got the strength to survive it! So SO LONG,YOU PATHETIC ECHIDNAS!!!
(He slams his fist three feet into the ground, causing major shockwaves)
KRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR-!
---
BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!
All: AAAGGH!!!
Sonic: Whats going on?!?!
Tikal: Oh, NO! The whole city..the ground beneath us is very thin.it.will probably explode!
RMMMMMBL--- BUH-KWHOOOM!!
All: AAAA-AAAA-AAAHH!
Sonic: The whole place is being catapulted into the air by that explosion!! This must be how the floating island came about!
Tikal: -Except before, it must've been the Chaos creature who caused the shockwaves!!
(Elsewhere, Shadow hears the explosion)
Shadow: Whuu! What's that!? Well, whatever it is, I'm sure to be needed!! CHAOS CONTROL!!!
(Shadow warps to the area with Sonic and Tikal. Tails arrives on the scene as well. His Cyclone is damaged, so he hops out and leaves it behind.)
Sonic: Shadow! Tails! We've gotta-
Tikal: There's no time for anything! This island is decreasing in speed! Pretty soon we'll start to fall! We HAVE to do something!
(The two Knuckles' have woken up, and are running towards the area..)
Knuckles: THIS is the big thing I was talking about! Hurry!!
AK: Right!
(The Knuckles' arrive on the scene where Sonic and the gang are thinking of a plan of action.)
Sonic: There's just no WAY we can keep this whole place floating! It's just not poss-
Knuckles: SONIC! Our only hope is for us to get that energy into the emeralds!!
Tails: We'll have to HURRY! This island's gonna impact-in about 5 minutes!!
Tikal: We need a plan. Brute force won't get that energy into the emeralds!
Sonic: We don't have TIME to think! We're gonna have to just think it up as we go along!!I do it all the time, and look at me!! Let's GO!
(They all dash into the centre of the city, where Zachary is punching down buildings.)
(They are all running towards Zachary, but are still about 20 metres away.)
Knuckles: Sonic! Shadow! You two're the fastest, so you attack his face!
Tails: Then me, Tikal and Knuckles can work on getting that energy out of him!
(Tails gets out a small device which resembles the energy draining device- the STC energy draining device, as seen in so many stories.)
Tails: I built it myself! It's designed to get all that Chaos energy out of Zachary in a few seconds!
(They are now about ten feet away)
Sonic: NOW! GO! GO! GOOOOO!!
(Sonic and Shadow dash around Zachary and leap up at him with all their strength. They hit him right in the face.)
Zachary: AGH! You stupid little-
Sonic: Again, Shadow!!
(Sonic and Shadow continually use the jump dash to home in on Zachary's face.)
Zachary: AAAAARRGH!!! Get- off- me!!
Sonic: Now! Knock him down!!
Shadow: Gotcha! Chaos control!!
(Shadow warps behind Zcahry's legs and trips him up.Zachary falls to the floor.)
Sonic: Now, SONIC BOUNCE!!! HYA!
(Sonic bounces on Zachary's face.)
Zachary: Ughhhh..
Sonic: NOW, Tails, NOW!!! We only get ONE shot at this!!
Tails: I got it! Knuckles!!
(He throws the device over to Knuckles, who attatches it to Zachary's forehead)
Knuckles: Sonic, keep attatcking him! We need more time!! Tails! Start the machine!!
Sonic and Tails: Got it!!
(Sonic keeps jump dashing Zachary's head, while the machine drains his energy. Zachary shrinks back to his normal size, and strength.)
Zachary: NOOO! I'M RUINED!!!!!
Knuckles: We haven't won yet! We still have to get that energy into the emeralds!!
Sonic: Leave it to me!! I'll get it done in NO time!!
(Knuckles hands the machine to Sonic, who sprints off to the building where the emerlads are.He is now inside.)
Sonic: Now, I just connect this wire to the machine that the emeralds are in.. and, Bingo!!
(Tails, Knuckles and Ancient Knuckles catch up.)
Tails: Now, I just have to activate the machine!!!
(Tails presses a button.)
BIP!
Tails: Done it! Now all we have to do is wait! It should only take about a minute for the energy to get into the emeralds!
Tikal: But.We're going to hit the ground in a few seconds!!
Tails: We're closing in fast?!?!
Knuckles: Worse! We're gonna impact!!This might be the end!
(there are now loud crashes and rumblings)
Sonic: Here we go!
Tikal: Sighs- I HAVE to do this now!!! -CAPTIVE LIGHT!!!!!
Knuckles: Wha-?
(A bright light stops time around them, except for them and the Chaos emeralds)
FREEOOW!!!---FRISSH!!
Sonic: What was that?!
Tikal: I didn't want to show you this, but I had no other choice. It is my Captive Light ability- it allows me to freeze time, for as long as I want, in any place I want..
Knuckles: So.THAT'S how I..
Tikal: I'm sorry that I kept it from you, Knuckles.
Normally, in a few days from now, the Chaos creature would begin it's rampage. I froze you then, as I knew that the echidna race would need you in the future. Although.. It looks as though we never had any.
Knuckles: But then. how did Zacahry get frozen?
Tikal: The only explanation I can give is that Zachary was frozen by accident.
Tails: Great! The emeralds are fully charged!!
Tikal: Okay! I'll unfreeze us!!
(Cuts to a distant view of the floating island, gaining altitude in the sky.)
Sonic: This is great!! Now your race won't die out!!
Knuckles: Yeah, but. by the time we get to our time.. All my family and friends will be long gone.
Sonic: Ouch! -That's--- too.bad.- Look, I'd better go and get those time stones, before Zachary gets them again.
(Sonic dashes off, and returns a few minutes later with the time stones. They are all in the centre of the city, preparing to go back to their own time.)
Sonic: We'd better get going!!
Tails: It was great meeting you all! Time stones- ACTIVA-
Knuckles: WAIT!!!
Tails: Huhn?
Knuckles: Tikal.. Can you freeze all the echidnas?
Tikal: Hm. I was wondering when you'd ask that. I think you've earned it! It's a deal!
--- CAPTIVE LIGHT!!
ZZYOW-!
(Everyone except Knuckles, Tails, Shadow and Sonic are frozen. The gang return back to their own time.)
(Time: the present. Place: The floating island.)
FRAASH!
Sonic: Hey, where's Zachary?
(scene cuts to the past- Zachary is the only one left. Left to live a lonely life, forever- HAH!!)
Zachary: NO! Where'd they all go!?!? NO! NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
(scene cuts back to the present)
Knuckles: I feel weird!!
Sonic: What is it?
Knuckles: I. (hears a voice in his head.)
Voice: Hey, it's me!
Knuckles: Who the?!
Sonic: Umm..Knuckles? Are you OK?
Voice: I'm YOU! Well, the ancient you. When we were both in the same frame of existance, we must have merged into one being! I'm using the last of my energy to tell you this, before we become permanently bonded into one mind..Thank you...
Sonic: Hello? Oh, great!! Knuckles has gone insane..
Knuckles: Oh, it's nothing, Sonic. Now, lets go and see how all my people are doing!!
(They all run off into the city, except for Shaodw, who stops to think)
Shadow: .The power to bring back an entire civilisation..-The time stones..
Sonic: Hey, Shadow! What're you waiting for! Come on!!
Shadow: You got it!!
(Shadow runs after the rest of the group, and off into the distance.)
Now that Knuckles' echidna race are back, what lies ahead?.
The end!
That's it for now, but be prepared for more action in my next story, in the form of a Shadow goes solo adventure..!! Tell me what you think of this story!!
