Spoiled Brat Part One

Sonic and all related characters copyrighted by Sega, Sonic Team, Archie, DiC, and the original Japanese creators. I, however, created Emperor Kip and the Kip Empire, though. This takes place after the events of Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (I finally got that game). Sorry, I don't know what happened in Sonic Adventure because I don't have a Dreamcast. Anyway, I'm going to try a different kind of spacing in this story that I haven't tried in my other 58 stories. Instead of using only one BR tag in my html coding at the end of each line, I'll use two BR tags. See if you like it. Now, on with the story!

It was a sunny day, just a few days after that whole unfortunate Finalhazard incident. Nearly the whole world...or at least the parts with video screens to watch after they'd been taken over by the ARK transmissions...had seen Super Sonic and Super Shadow destroy the Finalhazard and use Chaos Control to direct the ARK away from its collision course with the world.
A day after the incident, after everyone had come home, Sonic had been given a gold medal of bravery for his effort. Shadow was awarded a gold medal too, but due to the fact that he died, he had to be awarded the medal posthumously.
When people learned of Tails and Knuckles' role in saving the Earth, they were awarded silver medals. Even Amy Rose was awarded a bronze medal when people learned that she was responsible for convincing Shadow to help out in the first place.
As for Rouge, she gave up being a treasure hunter, but she didn't give up being a government spy. After all, being working for the government pays a lot more than being a treasure hunter, unless you score big. Rouge currently didn't have any missions, because nothing had come up, but in a world like this, something would turn up.
The police were willing to cut a deal with Dr. Eggman over the phone: If they handed Dr. Eggman a silver medal for his role in saving the world, Dr. Eggman would turn himself in so he could be arrested for all the crimes he'd committed in the past. Dr. Eggman declined, and hung up before he could be traced.
But enough of the review of the past...there's no time like the present, as the saying goes...
Tails checked his watch nervously. It was night, and he was staying in a hotel room. Sonic was supposed to meet him in his room by now.
"Where could he be?" he asked himself. "I bet he found some new way to test his speed."
Then, the door opened, and Sonic walked in.
"Thank goodness! Where have you been?!" Tails asked.
"At a trial," Sonic replied.
Tails was confused, and rightly so.
"A...trial?" Tails echoed, then went on to say, "The military doesn't still think you robbed the bank, do they?"
"Nah, Rouge told 'em everything about that," Sonic replied with a dismissive gesture. "Actually, I was on the witness stand. The G.U.N military was on trial."
Tails's eyes widened.
Before Tails could ask a question, Sonic cut him off and said, "The reason is because the court was trying to find out whether the G.U.N caused this whole mess by ticking Gerald Robotnik off by trying to destroy his ultimate life form prototype and getting all those people and Maria killed."
"And what did they find?" Tails asked.
"That, my friend, will have to wait until another day," Sonic said mysteriously. He went over to his bed and pretended to lay down to go to sleep.
"Sonic..." Tails said warningly.
"Just kidding, bro," Sonic said, laughing and standing back up. "The court found G.U.N guilty. They said G.U.N had no right to assume that just because Gerald was creating the ultimate life form, it was a threat. After all, Gerald created it to HELP mankind. So the raid was completely uncalled for, and the whole G.U.N military was convicted of manslaughter for all the people they killed."
"So what's gonna happen to them?" Tails asked worriedly. "That seems a little harsh."
"Well, since they didn't mean to cause any harm, instead of being arrested, every one of the G.U.N military has been dishonorably discharged," Sonic replied.
"All of them?!" Tails shouted.
"Yep. Every single member took part in that raid, so every single member was discharged," Sonic said.
Tails didn't like thinking of the possibilities.
"But what's their country gonna do without a military?" Tails questioned.
Sonic scoffed at Tails's naivete.
"Tails, Tails, Tails, G.U.N wasn't the only military that country had," Sonic said. "There are lots of other groups. Now let's go to sleep, because we'll have a nice, peaceful day tomorrow..."
At least, that's what Sonic thought was going to happen...
In the depths of spaces, a gigantic spaceship was heading towards Sonic's planet.
The spaceship, in the manner of something out of Star Wars, Star Trek, or any other series with colossal spaceships manned by many people, was manned by many, many people. And yes, that was repetitive. That was the point.
Anyway, the supreme commander of the spaceship was actually the emperor of a huge empire: the Kip Empire. And the emperor's name, was, of course, Kip.
And he was only five years old.
He was pondering whatever five-year-olds ponder in his throne room. He was wearing a five-year-old size royal gown and crown, and some very expensive clothes. He was also being attended to by a male servant.
"What would you like, Emperor Kip?" the servant asked.
"I wanna get to another planet! And I wanna get there now!!!" Emperor Kip screamed with five-year-old impatience.
The servant sighed.
"Right away, sir," he said.
The servant walked out of the throne room and into the control room, shouting, "Emperor Kip would like us to get to another planet immediately!" to all those in the room.
One of the co-pilots muttered, "Will somebody remind me again why we have a five-year-old for an emperor?"
Another co-pilot answered, "Because the law says that only those of his particular family may be Emperors or Empresses. And all of his relatives were assassinated, remember? Even if those assassins were caught, that means that only Kip was left to rule."
The first co-pilot shot back, "Yeah, so will you remind me again why we Emperor Kip acts like such a spoiled brat?!"
The second co-pilot calmly replied, "Because he watches too much of the Powerpuff Girls show, and he idolizes Princess Morebucks, so he acts exactly like her: a spoiled brat."
"I heard that!" came Emperor Kip's voice over the loudspeaker. "Somebody throw those two co-pilots out the airlock!"
Immediately a horde of security guards came and grabbed the two co-pilots. Their screams mixed with Emperor Kip's gleeful laughter at what he considered "amusement" as they were thrown out the airlock, where they suffocated to death from lack of air, and then exploded as the lack of air pressure got to them.
"Now, does anybody else wanna insult me?" Emperor Kip's voice asked.
Immediately the whole crew shouted, "We love you, Emperor Kip of the vocabulary far beyond a five-year-old's! We love you, Emperor Kip of the video screens that let him see the whole ship! We love you---"
"Shut up!" Emperor Kip's voice interrupted. "And somebody bring me a drink of water! I want a drink of water now!!!"
Immediately one of the crew members filled up a cup from the water fountain and ran as fast as he could to the throne room.
When the little spoiled brat of an Emperor had his undeserved drink, his voice came again over the loudspeaker, saying, "Is there another planet? I don't have screens to see outside the ship. I want another planet to conquer and induct into the Kip Empire! And I want it now!!!
The crew members looked out the window in fear, hoping against hope that another planet would be in view. After all, Emperor Kip's fickle nature could well lead his wrath to fall on them.
To their great relief, another planet was indeed in view.
"We've arrived over another planet, your smallness," one of the crew members said.
Then, he quickly realized his mistake, and before Emperor Kip could react, he said, "I mean your highness."
"Good," came Emperor Kip's voice, laughing in glee. "Soon, that planet will be part of my empire...but now I'm sleepy. I want a bedtime story! Somebody get over here and read me a bedtime story!"
Woe would befall Sonic the hedgehog's planet indeed if it should fall into the hands of the spoiled emperor...
