Clash of Ultimates

Author: Sorry for the wait.......I think one of my other fics (which will be ending soon) is causing the writer's block. Lame excuse, yeah..







Lilac stands at the top of a building in the city. She stares down at the people walking around below her. No one even notices the violet hedgehog watching their lives. Across the street is the government building housing a special vault. Inside that vault are not one, but TWO Chaos Emeralds.

"Why can't night come faster.." she wonders. She is eager to get this finished. "Father needs these Emeralds." She looks down at a couple of kids who have decided to play tag while their parents chase them. "They look so happy....why would they like war?" Lilac wonders as she returns her attention to the building. The sun is starting to set. Only a few more hours until the building is locked up for the day. And so, she waits.





**At Knuckles house**





"So the government decided to advertise where the Chaos Emeralds were being kept?" Sonic says. "I don't get it."

"They're advertising their new state-of-the-art vault in the city." Knuckles explains. "Supposedly, nothing can get into it." Shadow and Sonic just stare at him. Tails is still staring at the television. Amy and Rouge seem speechless.

"They're really asking for it this time." Shadow finally says. Sonic stands up and heads for the door.

"Well? We know where she is going. So let's get there first." The others start to get up. "Not you Amy." Amy sits on the couch and pouts. The others head out the door and into the city. When they are gone, Amy goes out and follows them at a distance.



**Back with Lilac**



Night has finally fallen. The last of the workers come out of the building, leaving only security to cause a problem. Lilac has studied this building very carefully. With great care, she cuts the wires for the alarms, then uses her new pendant to teleport inside. She is careful not to teleport right into the vault. Those sensors are separate from the ones she just cut. She starts to round the corner to the vault, and stops and backs up. There are 3 guards standing in front of the vault, preventing entry. Father had prepared her for this though. She puts on the special mask, then throws out a smoke bomb. The guards are unconscious within moments. She uses one of the guard's handprints to open the vault, thus disabling the sensors. The Emeralds are right in the center. She takes them and heads out.





**Outside**



Lilac takes the mask off when she is outside. She will need to get away quickly, since the gas's effects won't last long. When she starts to run off, she is blocked......by one blue hedgehog and one black hedgehog.

"Where do you think you're going little missy?" Sonic says. Lilac growls at him.

"Out of my way." She orders. Shadow steps up.

"Give back the Emeralds, then we'll talk." He says.

"Back off prototype or you'll have some other colors there too." She says. Shadow just shakes his head.

"My name's Shadow. At least call me that." He says. Lilac smiles.

"OK. Sha---------prototype." She starts laughing. Shadow is grinding his teeth. Sonic steps between them.

"Give back the Emeralds. You don't know what you're doing." He says. Lilac gives him the 'oh really?' look.

"I know exactly what I'm doing." She says. "I'm helping Father make this world better." She jumps over them and runs off. But before she is out of sight, she turns around. "Better remember this blue boy!" she shouts back. "I'm Lilac, the prettiest hedgehog around. And soon, everyone will be happy!" She runs out of sight, leaving the two hedgehogs to wonder what in the world she was talking about.
