Part 9
So... this little ball of gold beat Roboknuckles. I must say I'm very impressed. You managed to transform without the emeralds or rings. And at such a young age too. Robosonics icy tone was unsettleing.
Shut up...
Aww isnt that cute? You remind me of your mother...
SHUT UP! Marble was furious Robo. Even though I'm sure he hadn't heard that his mom was dead he still seemed to know. Marble launched himself at Robosonic. But even he was too slow to keep up with that engine. I find it hard to believe that Kncukles designed it. I think that maby he found it somewhere.
Its high time that you died my friend! You have already lived past your death angel once but this time I garantee that I wont miss. Robosonic pelted downward with Marble in persuit. But we only thought he went down. I recognised the symtoms of a hologram too late. MARBLE HE'S A HOLO! But even as I spoke the real robosonic was driving his clawed fingers across Marble's chest. He flew into a large pile of dribris. He was down. And I was in some sirious trouble. Well... thats one fly swatted. Your next vulpine! Instantly he was infront of me. He had no visible mouth, but I swear he was grinning broadly.
I had been training for this moment... this moment when I would face down and defeat Robosonic. It was only then when I actualy saw how much work went into him. Robotnicks obsession with killing Sonic always fasinated me. This... his greatest creation was absolutly flawless. Arodynamic in every way. Simple, but deadly weapons. Superlight and super fast. But it wasnt these things that made him the most efficiant killer in the universe... er... universes. It was his attitude. It was cold. Not unfeeling like most robots... Just... uncaring. Life was nothing to him. He had feelings. Though he used them so rarly that it would be able to mistake him for a blithering machine. He had an aura around him that just made you feel bad, scared. We tryed some exparaments at Knothole if you remember. We tryed to figure out if he was using pheramone technology Its only called that because of its first pourpous as a... ahem... love potion But the name stuck in the purpose didn't. It tourns out that we were wrong. It is simply the aura of a thing that has killed. Killed so much that the souls of the victems linger in his body.
But I am distracting myself from the fight. It wasnt all that much to be proud of. I got the crap beaten out of me. He was so fast I could hardly defend myself. I did get one or two hits in before I came crashing to the ground. I figured I'd rather play dead then keep fighting. You know the saying.. those who fight and run away... What I did though turned out to be our saving. It was then right before the blow that was sure to finnish me that Marble got up. No... dont kill him...
Ah! I see your not quite dead yet. Tell me.. why shouldn't I kill him! Was his reply
PLEASE DONT! Marlbe was crying.
... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! YOUR SO MUCH LIKE YOUR MOTHER ITS UNCANNY! SHE SAID THE SAME THING RIGHT BEFORE I KILLED HER TOO! ISN'T THAT GREAT! Mad he was starking mad. I had never seen Robo act this way before. It was a mistake. Marble was stunned. He couldn't find anything to say. His expression showed helplessness. Then he bent over and coughed up blood.
IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY! HA! YOUR MOTHER DIED ON HER HANDS AND KNEES BEGGING FOR HER LIFE!! Heh heh heh... I'll have you know I did have some fun with her before I spilled her blood all over the master emerald.
You... you... Marble expression started to change over to anger.
HA HA HA THATS RIGHT I'M SURE YOU CAN GESS WHAT HAPPEND! I NEEDED TO GAG HER TO KEEP HER FROM SHATERING THE EMERALD WITH HER SCREA...
I was going to witness the Final Flash Attack again. He managed to pull off the charging. But that was the simple part. Another flash and suddenly he was blinking all sorts of collors. Electricity shot off in all the colors of the rainbow and then some. Robosonic took a step back. What?! What is this!!
You should recognise this attack Robo. Its the one that finnished off your brother Silversonic2!
WHAT!! BUT THATS IMPOSSIBLE!! THERES JUST... NO WAY THAT CAN BE TRUE!!!! His eyes showed fear.
YOU WILL PAY FOR WHAT YOUVE DONE! YOU... YOU WILL PAYYY!!!!! It didn't seem that Marble was speaking in his own voice. The reverbarations of the noise seemed to come from his very soul. I simply couldn't believe my eyes. Robosonic screamed as Marble seemed to suddenly be everywhere at once. Scraps of mettal were flying from him like a mechgun gone mad! A few shards of shrapnel cut through my body like bullets. Only in my leg though. Nothing magor. Nothing like what was happening to Robosonic. Sparks flew from the damage inflicted on Robosonic. He seemed to be bouncing off the walls. Marble was so fast you could only see the gold aura move around.
Then just as suddenly as it started it ceased. Marble reapeared holding Robosonic up by the neck. You... chrrrrrrrrrrrick cant.... win chriiiiiiiishhh. Robosonic's voice was falling apart. Bolts of electricity danced across both Marble and Robo. Sparks flashed from Robo's arm and it fell off and landed in a heap.
Thats... where your wrong... Marble said to Robo as he brought his fingers togeather and snaped his neck in two.
Robosonic's head fell to the ground with a clang. Where I expected to see cables coming out of his neck there was blood and flesh... I couldn't possibly have understood it at the time. It seems that Robosonic... was not a pure robo after all.
And that is when the rumbleing began.
