Chapter 4: FIGHT!





From what I could see, Rei drew her sword and went fiercely on the attack. I could only be stunned by what happened after that.

She dove at Lucifer with her sword at her side and swung it forward, slicing him in half! His lower body was completely separated from the upper half. The upper half went flying to the side, dripping gore in its trail, until it finally found rest on the ground about 5 feet away, internal organs clearly hanging out, a few ribs had been broken and stuck out of the body, and created a SPLAT noise as it hit the ground. It lay in a puddle of its own blood. I was surprised enough Lucifer would have human organs and take a human form. But to see that much blood pour out of corpse was shocking. The bottom half simply fell over on the ground, created an equally large puddle of gore. The face of Lucifer looked nothing like he felt any pain, he appeared to have smirk upon his face. Something was not right, to say the very least. Rei remained in a fighter stance. She probably knew Satan himself would not be such easy prey, but nor was she.

Before I could blink, Cyrene appeared before me, as well as Sonic and the rest.

"Come with me!" She said, looking in my eyes, but also telling Sonic and the others. "You have no idea what's going to happen and nor do I, the entire will probably be obliterated. Lucifer came sooner than we anticipated, and the people are still not far enough away." Sonic, Tails, Shadow, Knuckles, and Amy crowded around me. Before I had time to react, she took one of her arms and held me close. I blushed a bit. "Let's go." She said, and the next thing I knew we were all surrounded by a bright light, then ended up on the other side of the mountains, were I saw the rest of the population of Robotropolis. Turning around, I saw a spectacular view of the city from where I stood on the mountains, and I could see Rei.

"Thanks uh.what was your name again?" Said Sonic.

"Cyrene. Now quickly, we have to get out of here!"

"Right! Coming, Eggman?"

I continued to stare. Someone grabbed me by the shirt and began to pull me away.

"C'mon, Eggman! Unless you want to get blown to bits." Said Knuckles, who was the one hanging on to me. I forced his grip off of me. We eventually caught up to the other group, who were still walking. And behold, there was Rouge. I ran up to her.

"Rouge!" I called. She turned.

"Eggman?" She replied. She caught a glimpse of Sonic and the others. "Where the HELL have you guys been?!"

"Worried?" Shadow asked.

"No. Not really."

"......Oh."

"Eggman likes Rei!" Said Amy. I hate her. I really do. But I couldn't help but blush.

"Amy?"

"Yes, Eggman?"

"How would you like to be hurled off the side of this mountain?"

I think she got what I saying. Hopefully. She shut up, so I assume so.

Rouge walked beside me and nudged me.

"So I see Eggman's got a crush, eh?" She said, slyly.

"Well...I." I then noticed a black box she was carrying. "Hey, what's that?"

"This?" Rouge replied, lifting it up in her one hand. "A nifty little gadget I got from my boss. It's hooked up to a video camera I stationed where the fight is. So we can see everything going on down there."

That got my attention. "So....are you going to turn it on?"

"I was just going to." Rouge flipped up a screen, revealing it to be a laptop computer, reached underneath it, and pressed a few buttons. The screen was blank. She taped in a few keys, and on the screen was the scene of the fight. The program ran smoothly. I was amazed Rouge would do something like this.

"I'm impressed, Rouge." I said.

"Good looks don't always mean stupid."

She and I walked along watching the fight on the screen.

REI'S POV.

He wasn't gone yet. He had to have REALLY underestimated me if he thought his little human form could through me off. Idiot. The blood that came from his human form began to sizzle on the ground like acid. It WAS acid. No surprise there.

"Get up!" I yelled. "I know you're alive! You think I'm that stupid?!"

An evil laugh echoed throughout the city. Much deeper than his human form's voice. It was much more menacing and much louder. I saw body I split in half begin to move. It turned into a puddle of..something. Immediately I decided to take care of it. I threw a fire right in its direction, a direct hit.

Nothing happened. The liquid began to rise and take a demonic form. It rose to about 60 feet in the air, then began to take shape. It looked like a 3 headed dragon, two legs in front, no back legs, more of like 3 speared tails. The claws alone had to be at least 5 feet. All three heads were supported be long, spiked necks. Each head had a horn on its nose. As it continued forming, it finally began to show color. The dragon was mostly pitch black, aside from the eyes, the tongue, and the spears at the end of it's three tails. The dragon had to be at least 100 feet long, including its long tails. Two black wings sprouted from its back. It let out a huge roar that could probably be heard for miles.

ROBOTNIK'S POV.

"HOLY SHIT!" I exclaimed. The roar practically made my ears bleed. I took a good look at the beast that stand before Rei. Does she still stand a chance? I must admit, I was a bit worried for her. Unfortunately, the expression on my face showed that, getting the others' attention. However, I could justify my worry.

"So you DO like Rei, huh?" Said Tails.

"Stop that! Remember that if she loses, we're all screwed!"

Cyrene was still walking near us.

" Don't worry, she has never lost a battle and I doubt seriously she's going to start now."

Nice to know that, but still....

REI'S POV.

"Well, take a look at you." I said.

"Being a wise-ass, are we?" Replied Satan. "I'll crush you into oblivion, runt."

I had to be sarcastic. "Oh, THAT hurt."

"I'll have you know that this form is my most powerful. I admit I was impressed by your speed before, but that won't be to your advantage this time. And now with my wings, there's not gong to be much you can do when I decide to head for where the people are."

"So you assume you're the only one here with wings, huh?" I said, putting my sword back in its sheath. I put my arms to the side, elbows bent and clenched my fists together. I let out a groan of pain as two large, feathered, black wings sprouted from my back. A bit of blood was shed, but nothing to be concerned about.

"Now are you gonna fight are keep talking?" I yelled, mockingly.

"As you wish!" He said. All three heads opened their mouths and began gathering black energy. My immediate instinct was to counter it, but seeing as this could not be his most powerful spell I used something more powerful. One of my favorites, the Chaotic Tilt. I didn't have to sit and charge up for it, and it was very powerful. The spell itself was blood red. It would blow up 3 miles of land, but that's why the people where evacuated from Robotropolis in the first place.

I fired the Chaotic Tilt just as he fired his little spell. My spell easily overcame his, and blew up right in all his faces. The explosion forced me to cover my eyes, but I could still see Lucifer in pain. This wasn't going to kill him, I knew it, but I'd be off to a good start. And, just as I had predicted, 3 miles of land were demolished when the dust cleared, which happened rather quickly. One of Lucifer's heads were cut off, and it lay right by my feet, drenched in acidic blood. How nice.

"No matter." He said. Blood gushed from the wound atop his middle neck, and it formed another head in the other's place.

ROBOTNIK'S POV.

My jaw dropped to the ground, we all were now about 25 miles from Robotropolis, and were assumed safe. We stopped walking and set ourselves up for a long stay in the mountains. Of course, with the last spell that Rei let go, I wasn't so sure we were safe. I was stunned enough at Rei's sprouting wings, but then she blew up a large portion of Robotropolis without breaking a sweat put me in shock. Yep. Sonic sure would be screwed if I got her to go against him. I was also surprised the camera survived the explosion, it must have been hidden in the ground or something.

I was sitting on the ground with Rouge and the others watching the camera.

"Say Sonic," I heard Knuckles start. "They're cooking chili dogs over there, I'm grabbing a few. Join me?"

"At a time like this?" Said Sonic. "Alright!" And they zoomed off. How could they be so relaxed with an apocalyptic battle being fought? I kept my eyes on the screen.

REI'S POV.

"Is that the best you can do?" He said as he stepped forward, shaking the ground. His talons dug into the concrete. I jumped back a foot or two.

"No, there's actually a reason why Suah and Cyrene moved the people of Robotropolis 25 miles away."

"Oh really? Well I'm afraid I can't let you use that power." He began to fire up another spell. I took flight and hovered above his head. I left the ground a second before he let it rip, and black energy spread on the ground rapidly, destroying anything in its path. After it covered less than a mile in seconds, it disappeared. I hit him on the head with fireball the size of a 2-story house. It obviously burned him harshly as he growled in pain.

"DAMN YOU!" He yelled and he reached for with his large paw. He took me by surprise, unfortunately, and one of his claws impaled me right threw the stomach. My blood spread everywhere, and I was in agonizing pain. It ran through my body in an incredible rush.

No.

I won't die. I won't die. He kept me on his claw to feel his talon puncturing any organs that were in its path. I can't lose. I won't allow it. This wasn't going to stop me. Blood poured out onto his claw.

ROBOTNIK'S POV.

"REI! NO!" I yelled, as I grabbed the screen frantically. This couldn't be!

Cyrene ran over to me. "What is it?" She looked at the screen, and her eyes widened in shock. "DAMMIT!"

"Rei.." I swear I felt a tear in my eye. I didn't realize it, but I had actually shed a tear. SHIT!

Cyrene gazed closer to the screen. "She's gonna be fine. I can promise you that. I know it seems impossible, but she can survive that type of a blow."

"I hope you're right..." I said softly. I just KNEW Amy was going to get on my back for this. Cyrene wiped the tear from my eye and walked away.

Of course, Rouge, Shadow, Tails, and Amy gave me a look.

"WHAT?" I said. "I can't be concerned that our existence depends on her?"

Rouge gave me another sly look. "Admit it, Eggman."

"Admit WHAT?"

"That you love her."

I blushed. "NONSENSE!"

They continued to look at me.

"I am NOT in love with Rei!"

"Then what's with the water works?" Said Shadow.

".....Something in my eye..."

REI'S POV.

There was only one way out of this. It was going to hurt, but it had to be done....quickly. I rested my hands on his claw and gripped as hard as I could. I then twisted it with even ounce of physical strength I had. The claw cracked. It was working!

He laughed. "That will not work, fool!"

"YES IT WILL." I let out, and squeezed the claw harder. I felt sweat go down my face. I kept at it until.....

It broke off completely. I landed on the ground on my back, alive. The claw was still threw me, but a grasped it, pulled it out, and threw the damned thing on the blood stained ground. The hole in my stomach began to heal over slowly but surely.

"Now how the hell did you do that?!" He yelled.

"It doesn't matter." I replied. "All that matters is that you die." I fired a light spell to blind him momentarily. I then used my sword to cut out most of the 2 foot teeth in one of the heads' mouth. While he was still recovering, I climbed in his mouth and began to slide down his middle head's throat. Obviously drool covered me, but who cares when you're fighting, right? I didn't let myself go to his stomach, but far enough down his throat that I could see where all three necks met. From where I was, I could hear him trying to cough me out. He let out a roar, thinking he could blow my away.

Not now.

I began to cast one of my most devastating spells, the Giga Blaze. It would destroy 22 miles of land, but it would surely bring down Satan with it. Especially when he gets blown from the inside. It took a bit to power up. My other, much larger spell would have destroyed all 25 miles of land, including the people of Robotropolis. I decided not to risk it. It was still risky business casting one of this magnitude. One might say that if the spell got out of hand, the whole planet would be destroyed as a result. This wasn't my only spell capable of doing this, I had many others.

And at long last, the spell was ready. With a grin on my face, I yelled "GIGA BLAZE!" and let 'er rip inside Lucifer. The blast forced every inch of Lucifer to brake apart into millions of pieces. I could hear the land being destroyed. I felt a shower of blood pour on me. It didn't burn like I expected it to. I heard guts shattering to pieces, and bones breaking. Lucifer let out his loudest roar yet as his body was ripped to shreds, torn from flesh and bone and sent back to hell and oblivion.

I soon found myself looking around, I could see the land again. It was gone, but the world was safe....for the time being. I stood in a pile of Lucifer's internal organs, blood, and drool. Fun.
