Sally pulled herself up from the ground only to find herself staring at two
Combots. Only he was different. He was roboticized.
"Help!" shrieked Antoine.
"INTRUDER ALERT," said a Combot, "IDENTIFICATION- GROUP 02- KNOTHOLE
FF- ID- 0741- ANTOINE D'COOLETTE. TARGETING... TARGET LOCK APPLIED... BLAST SET
MAX... READY... AIM... FIRE."
The blast hit Antoine, almost surely killing him. But as it did, time
itself collapsed. The world became tinted purple and rotated 360o. The Freedom
Fighters blacked out.
**********
Caero was taken to the ZIG room. ZIG, who Rotor had short-circuited
had been taken apart. ZIG's components were in a heap in a corner of the room.
ZIG's roboticization units were both attached, vertically, to the wall. A
control center was in another corner of the room. Caero was held tight by the
Nuerobots. Robotnik entered the control center.
"Nuerobots!" commanded Robotnik, "Put the victim in the roboticizer!"
Robotnik went over to the ZIG control room and pressed a button. The
door to the first roboticizer slid open. The Nuerobots pushed Caero inside the
first roboticizer. Robotnik pressed another button and the door to the first
roboticizer slid shut. The door to the ZIG room creaked from its hinges as
Sonic entered.
"You're too late, hedgehog!" cackled Robotnik, who engaged the
roboticizer enclosing Caero. Sonic, moving at TransSonic speed, spun at the
base of the roboticizer, short-circuiting it. Caero scrambled out of the
roboticizer. His right hand was robotic. Sonic, with Caero, spun his feet and
blasted off at UltraSonic speed.
**********
Once outside Robotropolis, Sonic spoke, "Caero, everything's wrong! I
can't find any of my friends. Tails is roboticized. I thought I knocked
Robotnik out, but apparently he collected himself in time to attempt your
roboticization. I have to save Tails though, Caero. I'll need a
deroboticization unit. Our first hope is my uncle's place. Uncle Chuck. He's
a robot, but he has complete control of his mind. Let's go!"
Sonic and Caero headed for the boundary of Robotropolis. They
approached the garbage dump that had hidden Uncle Chuck's hideaway for so long.
Sonic peeled out at SuperSonic speed and jumped up in time to release Caero and
pull open a code key. Sonic punched in Unc's code and the garbage in the center
of the dump opened, showing that the dump was hollow and held together only by
crude glue. Sonic entered and saw Uncle Chuck.
"Sonic," said Uncle Chuck, "who is your friend?" As he said "friend,"
he motioned to Caero.
"Unc," replied Sonic, "This is Clash. Caero 'Clash' Chaotic. He's
some kind of mutated fox."
"Mutated?" shouted Caero, "I thought we were friends. Actually, it
was my grandmother, Zinc, who was 'mutated,' as you call it. She had been in a
chemical accident from the polluted waters of the Eternal River. It turned out
it wasn't so 'eternal' after all; at least for my grandmother, it wasn't. She
was intoxicated by the chemicals. She gave birth to my mother and died only a
few days after. My mother showed resemblance to a fox, but her fur was more
yellow than most foxes, but not nearly as yellow as mine. She mated with my
father, and when I was born, my color was hardly that of a "fox." My fur was
purely yellow; not a tint of orange. May the fool who polluted the Eternal
River be damned forever. It wasn't the Robotnik bastard that I met; he wasn't
born yet.
The room was silent for a few minutes.
"What are you here for, Sonic?" asked Uncle Chuck, breaking the
silence.
"We've come for a deroboticization unit," replied Sonic, "Tails has
been roboticized. I must save him."
"Well, Sonic," replied Uncle Chuck, "I've only one left, but here it
is."
Uncle Chuck gave Sonic a small device. It was labeled F10-40
ETH-UNDO. Sonic rippled it, then blasted off at TransSonic speed.
As he approached Robotropolis, he held the deroboticization unit
tight. Caero came slowly behind Sonic. Sonic walked at half-UltraSonic speed,
a very fast pace for only walking. Just to keep up, Caero had to run his
fastest. Sonic walked only a few more paces before becoming surrounded by
SWATbots.
"Surrender, hedgehog," said the SWATbots.
"Not today," said Sonic, "not any day!"
Sonic hurled his backpack around to the front of him and grabbed a
Power Ring from his backpack. He held it above his head. The Ring glowed
yellow, and the glow surrounded Sonic. Sonic grabbed Caero, then moved at
HyperSonic speed and went into a Super Sonic Spin to cut through the entrance to
the Main Structure, destroying any and all SWATbots in his way. Sonic, now
inside the Main Structure, returned the Ring back to his backpack. Sonic headed
for the Control Center. Sonic spun through the door. Caero followed Sonic,
quietly.
"I wonder where the 'Tails-Bot' is," Sonic thought.
Sonic had no time to wonder. He came face-to-face with Robotnik, in a
new hovercraft. Caero outstretched his claws and jumped at the hovercraft. He
ripped at the bottom – the craft's wind modulator (the device that makes it
hover). The damage tipped the craft in one direction, but Robotnik just hovered
higher, to prevent Caero from attacking it again. Robotnik flew directly
overhead Sonic, then blasted a beam from the bottom of the ship. Sonic moved at
SuperSonic speed, avoiding the blast. Robotnik pressed a button, opening a gap
in the bottom of his hovercraft. A huge, spiked ball fell out of it. He swung
it at Sonic. Sonic ducked, and the ball missed him. As he got back up to make
a wisecrack for Robotnik, the ball, on its return swing, hit Sonic on the head.
Robotnik then shot Sonic with a laser beam. Robotnik lowered his craft, to pick
up Sonic, when Caero attacked. Caero knocked full-force into Robotnik with his
fists extended. It slowed Robotnik down, but Robotnik recovered in time. Caero
then swung at Robotnik's ship. Robotnik jumped out just as the ship exploded.
Robotnik grabbed Sonic, who was unconscious, and pressed a button on his belt.
Red beams formed rings around Robotnik, and then a plasma of red laser
surrounded Robotnik and Sonic. Then a huge explosion took place where Robotnik
had been standing, with red electrical currents coming from the central point.
It blinded Caero for a moment, then Sonic and Robotnik were gone. But the one
key thing ... was still there...
**********
Sally awoke to find herself in a medical room with Bunnie and Antoine
in medical tables beside hers. Their clothes were hanging on a clothesline
about fifteen feet away. Sally had a pain in her head.
The door to the medical room creaked open and Sally saw someone enter
the room that looked familiar. It was her!!! The Sally that entered the room
had on a white lab coat and mechanical shoes instead of Sally's normal blue vest
and blue boots. Sally pulled herself into a sitting position.
"Who are you?" asked Sally.
"I am you." replied the other Sally, "The you of the year 3212 3240."
**********
Uncle Chuck checked his spy monitors. He saw Sonic in the hands of
Robotnik.
Uncle Chuck set off, hoping to free him. He slowly and quietly, being
seen a few times by SWATbots, but being let go by showing his ID, headed towards
to Main Structure.
**********
Sally stood up.
"How could you be me?" asked Sally to the lab-coated Sally.
"Our technology is VERY advanced now," replied the other Sally, "We
have created a time machine, which we used to bring you here, albeit by
accident."
"Our fellow Freedom Fighter, Antoine, is very badly harmed; can you do
anything for him?"
"Well, we already know who Antoine is," said the Sonic of the future,
who had green eyes, and whose shoes had buckles unlike the Sonic of present
time. "We are you; and there's only one way to help him. That way is to use
our..."
**********
Uncle Chuck approached the entrance to the Main Structure. He pushed
his ID into the slot and the door slowly opened. He passed the door. After he
had passed through the door, the motion detector detected no more movement and
the door slowly closed. Uncle Chuck moved slowly toward the ZIG room, where he
suspected Sonic was being taken. He could also be in the Control Room, though.
Furthermore, it would be hard to save Sonic without arousing suspicion that he
had regained control of his mind. In addition, if he was suspected, he would be
terminated...
