Chapter 22 "Rage Against the Machine"
Pool Deck
5:02 P.M.
Amy and the gang appeared through a secret passage into the pool
room.
"Oh my! We need to get outta here!" Amy said.
"So where do we go?" Chip asked.
"You guys go on and find an escape pod. I gotta go back for my
cousins!" Amy said.
"But Amy-!" Sonia started.
"Princess Sonia, you need to get out of here! You're too far
important to stay here!" Amy pointed out.
"But I-"
"GO!"
Sonia looked at Amy for a bit, before she took Chip's hand and
made a break for it. Only Pucha and a baby black chao remained.
"You too, guys," Amy said, Birdie fluttering by her side.
"No way, Amy. We gotta find Sonic," Pucha said, Chalcon nodding
fastly.
"Sonic? Why?"
"No time to explain! Let's go!" Pucha said.
Outside, Amy, Birdie, Pucha and Chalcon ran, and heard the
dreaded voice.
"Where do you think you're going, Amy?" Robotnik called, flying
up to her in his Egg Moble
"Eggman! No!" Amy cried, stopping short. She turned her head and
saw Sonic and Tails.
"Sonic!" she called.
"Too late, buddy!" Robotnik growled to Sonic and Tails.
Gamma had wandered out of the prision hold when he heard Robotnik
call.
"Ahem! Testing 1-2-3! Gamma, get ready for battle instrutions.
Go to the amunition room and get your jet pack. The amunition room is
unlocked."
Back on deck, Robotnik pushed a button, and his gigantic claw on
the Egg Moble grabbed Birdie.
"Not the birdie!" Amy cried.
Robotnik grabbed the bird and snapped off the medallion he was
wearing.
"That's Sonia's medallion!" Sonic called.
"It's a chaos emerald!" Tails said.
"No way!" Amy said, staring as Birdie was released.
"Begone, all of you! This is all I really need." Robitnik
said.
Amunition Room
5:09 P.M.
Gamma wandered into the room, picking up the jet pack and
installed it himself. He walked back out when Robotnik called again.
"Gamma, report to the rear of the ship, immeditely!"
Egg Carrier Main Deck
5:26 P.M.
Robotnik was trying to hold the group up, not letting them
escape, and was tired of it.
"GAMMA!" he yelled out.
The robot appeared from almost out of nowhere.
"What is your wish, Dr. Robotnik?" Gamma asked.
"Get rid of these pests, immeditely! I've got better things to do!"
Robotnik said, taking off.
"Aye, sir! Will comply!" Gamma said, getting into a battle
stance.
"Let's take him down, Tails!" Sonic called.
The battle was fierce, but Sonic was more fierce still.
Gamma's laser gun was too slow for Sonic, and Sonic kept spin-
dashing him until the robot was too damaged to go further.
"Time to take you down," Sonic siad, rushing towards the robot.
Amy stepped in front of the robot.
"Stop it, Sonic!" she yelled.
Sonic screeched to a halt.
"Amy?! What are you doing?! That's one of Eggman's clunkers! Out
of my way!" Sonic demanded.
"No!" Amy cried. "This robot is my friend! He helped me! Don't
hurt him!"
"Amy..." Sonic said a little more softly, putting down his guard.
"Okay, I guess I'll let him go. You must have your reasons..."
Suddenly the ship started shuddering.
"The Egg Carrier is losing altitude!" Tails called.
"We're fresh outta time!" Sonic said. "Take Amy and get outta
here!"
"What about you?" Amy called.
"I'll take down Eggman and put him out of commition!" Sonic said,
running off. Pucha and Chalcon looked at Amy, shrugged, and took off
after Sonic.
Amy watched them leave. "I knew you would save me, Sonic! You're
my hero!"
She turned to Gamma, who was starting to get up again.
"Are you okay? It's dangerous here! You need to ditch that awful
Eggman." Amy said.
"Why are you helping me?" Gamma asked.
"I told you that we'd be friends the next time we meet!" Amy
reminded him.
"Amy, come on!" Tails called.
"Till we meet again, my robot friend!" Amy waved, grabbing Tails'
hand. He air lifted her off the deck and took off. Gamma converted into
flying mode and took off.
Bridge
5:45 P.M.
Sonic ran in with the other chao.
"If I am to continue, I need to change this ship, back to it's
orginal shape," Sonic told them.
"I wonder which button it is," a voice murmured. Everyone looked
in Sonic's backpack and found a silver chao.
"Who are you?" Sonic asked.
"I'm Pitecha. Chao Genius," she said. "I sneaked out of Tails'
backpack to find you."
"Well Pitecha. Which button DO you think it is?" Sonic asked.
"Hmm...judging by the design of the console...it's the red and
yellow button," she said.
"This one?" Sonic asked, pressing it.
The ship folded back into the orginal shape.
"Yep, that would be the one," she smirked.
