War for the Chaos Emeralds!
PART 4: Revelations. E-1000's perfection.
(Tails and Amy have just arrived on the floating island to find that it's in BIG trouble!)
Tails: Knuckles! What's wrong with the island!?
Knuckles: I don't know. The Master Emerald just started to lose energy! If we don't stop it soon, then our island's done for!
Tikal: -But if we can get the chaos emeralds, they might just have enough power to keep the island afloat!
Tails: Uhh.
Amy: There might be a PROBLEM with that.
Tails: Y'see, some crazy robot named E-1000 is after the emeralds. He already got one, and I don't know if he's got any more since then.
Knuckles: Oh, NO. We'll have to act fast. We need as many emeralds as we can, as FAST as we can! OK everyone! We're forming a search party!
(All the echidnas leave the chamber to search the planet for Chaos emeralds, apart from Knuckles and Tikal.)
Knuckles: Be back as SOON as you can.
(Later, after Tails has explained his story to Knuckles.)
Tails: I wish we could help.
Knuckles: Don't worry about it! It sounds like you've been through enough already. And besides- I'm SURE we'll find the emeralds in time.
(elsewhere, in a dark, underground base, a familiar figure sits.)
?????: It's all going PERFECTLY according to plan. soon, all the emeralds will be in one place, ready for E-1000 to snatch them all up! And then I can begin my revenge, starting with that STUPID Knuckles!
(Later. Back on the floating island, in a grassy area. Tails is fixing up the Tornado and Amy is sitting under a tree. Knuckles runs out from the emerald chamber via a tunnel)
Knuckles: Hey, great news! The team's already found THREE emeralds! That's just another three to go!
Tails: I dunno. doesn't this all seem a bit too EASY to you? I mean, you think that E-1000 would've tracked us down by now.
Knuckles: Well, all I know is, FINALLY things are going my way! Now it's just a case of waiting.
(several hours later, the echidnas have returned)
Knuckles: OK, we've got FIVE. I guess that'll have to do.
(Knuckles takes them down to the emerald chamber. Tikal, Tails and Amy follow.)
Knuckles: This is GREAT! Now all I need to do is put them into the beam! (Where the master emerald usually floats, non-STCers. -Mark)
(Scene cuts to ????? in his dark base again)
?????: Ready, my pet? Now GO!
(E-1000 flies towards the floating island at an alarming speed!)
(Back in the emerald chamber.)
Knuckles: . and that's the last one!
-RRRRRRRRMMMMMBBBBBBBLLL..
All: Huh?!
(E-1000 smashes into the emerald chamber!)
E-1000: You little FOOLS! Did you really think I would go and get them myself, when I could just sit back and let you echidnas get them FOR me?
Tails: AAAH!
Knuckles: How did YOU know?.
(E-100's voice changes- his master is transmitting a message.)
Voice: Well, it was EASY. I mean, it figures if the Island needed more emerald power, you'd try and get the Chaos Emeralds.
Knuckles: WHAT do you know?!
Voice: Well, all I had to do was TAP into the Master Emerald's source, and DRAIN it all away!
Knuckles: Wait. I know that voice! ZACHARY! But HOW?!
Zachary voice: Oh, you'll find out in due time. but for NOW.-#Kssshhh#
E-1000: Yes master.
(E-1000 moves his hand upwards)
Tails: Oh no you don't!
(E-1000 shoots a wide-angled beam from his hand into the 5 chaos emeralds)
All: AAH!
Tails: He didn't do THAT before!
Knuckles: NO!
Tikal: Now the island's done for!
E-1000: Hmm.. One emerald is MISSING. ----------Scanning possible emerald locations. Location found. Chemical plant Zone factory, factory number B-7.
(E-1000 blasts off to the Chemical plant zone.)
Tails: No.. NO.. It's all over. If he gets that last emerald, he'll be UNSTOPPABLE!
Knuckles: We need to get there before him!... Any ideas?
Tails: Well, just one. It's a long shot, but it just might work!
(Tails jumps into the Tornado, and turns on a communicator.)
Tails: Shadow! Can you hear me?! We need your help! Come to the floating island! Time crucial! Can't explain!
(seconds later, Shadow appears by Chaos Control)
Tails: Chemical plant zone. Hurry!
(Shadow teleports Tails to the chemical plant zone)
Knuckles: It's all up to you now, Tails.
(Back at the chemical plant zone.)
Tails: OK Shadow, leave it to me!
Shadow: Uh. if you're sure. Bye then!
(Shadow warps away) Tails: Now, where is that factory?.
(Tails spots E-1000, flying around a corner.)
Tails: Hey! E-1000! Hold it RIGHT there!
E-1000:.....
Tails: Don't Ignore me!
(E-1000 stops, then turns to face Tails)
E-1000: Why? It's already TOO LATE.
(In his hand, he's holding the last, green emerald!)
Tails: NO!
(Tails runs at E-1000 to try and stop him, but E-1000 jumps out of the way and absorbs the emerald)
E-1000: Oops. TOO bad.
(E-1000 begins to glow brightly. Steam and smoke engulf the area. When the smoke clears, E-1000 remains standing. But he looks different.. Upgraded.)
E-1000: Game over, Fox boy. You LOSE.
Tails: Uh..u-h-h-h-h...
