This here be, Dark Shadows Chapter 4 and here we go…
*****************************************************
Knuckles crouched on the edge of a rundown building. Using a pair of binoculars, he watched the street below. Before him was, the Headquarters of the so called "Human Defense League." It was nothing really to behold. It looked like all the other dilapidated buildings, with one important difference. The grounds were surrounded by a barb wire fence and had armed guards patrolling the perimeter of it.
"Come on, Sonic," he muttered under his breath, "Where are you?"
As if on cue, an alarm began to ring and Knuckles could hear various shoats.
"Finally."
******************************************************
"It's him, Sonic the Hedgehog!" Shouted a guard
"Radio the control room!" Another answered.
"We have visual on the hedgehog, over." The first guard said into his walkie-talkie.
"Copy that," the operator replied.
"Hey, you morons," Sonic shouted, "you think you could slander my name like that? We'll think again. This hedgehog's mad!"
******************************************************
"Sir, sir!" an out of breath soldier cried.
"What is it?" Dr. Edwards asked visibly annoyed.
"Sorry to interrupt your sleep, sir. But the hedgehog has been sighted outside the premises, sir!"
"The hedgehog?"
"That's right, sir."
"Excellent. Fetch me my cane." He said sitting up in bed, his bony legs hanging over the side.
"Yes, sir!" And with a salute the guard did as he was ordered and then left.
"Perfect," the doctor thought, "with the hedgehog here, his little friends will be here as well. It's the perfect time to spring my trap!"
He hobbled out of his room and down the hall to his monitor room. Sitting down, in the control chair, he hit a few switches and several monitors filled with video feed of what was happening outside. The lowly Hedgehog was dodging all of the guard's laser blasts. He even stopped to taunt them before he crashed his spin attack into them.
"No matter, he will soon learn that humanity will always triumph!"
Dr. Edwards pressed a button an other monitor popped up, this one was a direct link to the control room. The operator straightened at the sight of the doctor.
"Sir?" he asked.
"Send out the special, elite recruits to deal with him." Edwards ordered.
"You mean the Alpha Squad, sir?"
"That's what I said, you moron!"
The operator turned a bright red and said, "I'm sorry, sir! I'll do it right away."
"They are idiots! All of them. It is good that I will have no need for them shortly." Dr. Edwards, sat back and watched the monitors, enjoying every minute of it.
********************************************************
Sonic, dusted his hands off as he surveyed he scene. There were about three dozen guards lying out cold, before him.
"That was rather easy," he said to himself, "Hey guys, you can come out now! The coast's clear!"
Slowly, Knuckles, Tails and Rouge joined Sonic.
"That took almost three minutes," Tails said with a grin, "You must be slowing down."
Sonic grinned back and put Tails into a headlock. "Slowing down am I? I'll show you!"
"Knock it off!" Rouge hissed.
"Ah, Sonic the Hedgehog." A voice boomed out of no where. "Welcome, welcome."
"Where's that voice coming from?" Knuckles asked.
"There!" Rouge was pointing to a loud speaker on the side of the base.
"I see you have defeated my soldiers."
"Yeah, butthead, it was a piece of cake!" Sonic shouted.
"It seems that I have been beaten! Please come in and take me in to custody." With that the gate before them and a large steel door on the front of the building opened, slowly.
"I don't like this Sonic.." Tails said with a worried look on his face.
"I don't either, little buddy, but we don't have any choice." Sonic replied as he stepped forward. Without hesitation, the others followed behind him. When the had all stepped inside, the door slammed shut behind them. There were no lights on, leaving the group standing in complete darkness.
Suddenly the lights came on in a flash. Sonic and the others were momentarily blinded. Blinking, Sonic finally got a chance to survey the room. It was large, white and empty. A door opened to their left and out came a group of four furries.
"It's time to have some fun!" roared a large bear.
"You know it!" a silvery marten replied.
"Smashy, smashy." A gigantic elephant said.
"Would you idiots shut up?" A female arctic fox barked, "So, this is the great Sonic the Hedgehog, huh?" She looked him up and down. "Not very intimidating are you?"
"I guess your about to find out!" Sonic said taking a fighting stance. Tails, Rouge and Knuckles did the same.
The other group roared with laughter. "This ain't gonna take anytime at all!" the bear shouted as he charged forward.
End Chapter 4
Like before I don't own any characters, except for Dr. Edwards, the Human Defense League and the Alpha Squad. The others belong to Sega.
