Dr. Eggman's Greatest Plan?

----------------------------
In a large garage, an egg-shaped scientist was working feverishly, with the young Persocom, wearing white pants, and a red shirt with black long sleeves, looking loyally at his 'creator'.
"Hmm... I want to test the boy's intelligence."
Eggman looked over to the boy, staring at him almost soullessly. "CHI, I
want you to get something for me. You got it?"
"Chi!" CHI nodded happily.
"That's a good lad. Now, I need a wrench." The scientist points up high. "On the third floor, there's my wrench on a red table. Get me that wrench."
"Chi!"
"Let's see if he's good enough to pass simple tasks. If he can, then he'll be good against that worthless hedgehog."
Whilst Eggman thought to himself, CHI's 'ears' expanded, gathering large amounts of energy in the process. The ears then rotated so that the bright red areas were facing down towards the ground.
"Huh?"
"Chi!"
The Persocom released all his collected energy, and fired with so much force that it propelled himself into the air, landing in his 'specified trajectory'. Although, he didn't really see if Eggman was injured by this.
Luckily, the portly scientist was only charred, and not seriously injured. "Darn you, CHI! Next time, make sure I'm not caught in your radius!!"
His face sensors getting red from embarrassment, he shyly placed a hand behind his head. "Chi..."
"Don't worry about it. Now, get me the wrench!"
"Chi!"
After grabbing his 'acquired target', he jumped from his great height, landing right on his feet, next to a surprised and impressed Eggman.
"Ooh! Nicely done, CHI!" After taking the wrench from the Persocom's hands, he made a few alterations on his Egg-o-Matic. "Now, I will send you on another mission, CHI. But, it will require going into Station Square."
"Chi?"
"You remember how I told you about that villain, Sonic the Hedgehog? He has unnatural powers. These powers have brainwashed the people of Station Square, making them think that he's the hero and that I am the villain."
"Chi!" CHI sounded scared, in an 'Oh no!' tone.
"Exactly. CHI, my boy, I want you to go into Station Square. I have the feeling that they won't attack you, since they won't know that you are affiliated with me. Go to the robotics factory. We'll need some available parts for my machines. Understood?"
"Chi!" He nodded happily, a beaming happiness showing on his feature. He then started to head off towards the small ship that would lead to Station Square.
"This is a test, CHI. You better pass it."

"Sonic, do you think that we'll find out what's going on?" Tails asked his best friend.
"Well, I think so. We'll just keep going around and asking people until we find out some information."
"Hey guys, look!" Knuckles pointed to a boy looking around. "That's the boy Eggman carried off that I told you about."
"That's him?" Sonic eyed the unknown-to-him
Persocom. "Now why would Eggman take him?"
"I honestly think that there is more to this boy than meets the eye, Sonic!" Tails tried explaining to Sonic.
Unbeknownst to the three of them, while Tails explains the other two his ideas, CHI happened to unintentionally catch them in his vision. He searched his data bank, remembering the looks of the 'villainous' Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends that Eggman had showed him.
"Chi…" the machine growled, his pupils narrowed, slowly walking towards the three of them. Even though he was told to do a simple mission, his intelligence made the assumption that if he killed Sonic and his friends, his 'creator' wouldn't have to worry about them any longer.
"Um, guys…"
"What is it, Knuckles?" Sonic wondered.
"He's heading towards us."
"He is? Well, we'll see about that." Sonic made a quick sprint over to the boy, eying him. "Did you escape from Eggman, kid?"
"Chi…" CHI growled lowly.
"Sonic, he sounds angry!" Tails said.
"You must be brainwashed, kid!" Sonic grabbed his face, trying to snap him out of it. "He must be."
CHI wildly swung his arm, catching Sonic off guard. But with only a split-second, the hedgehog dodged the attack. In return, Sonic curled into a ball, and performed a homing attack right on CHI's back. The boy turned himself around just to catch Sonic, and throw him to the ground.
"What the!?"
"Chi!"
He did a large flip back, eying a lamppost with his sensors, and after landing beside it, yanking it out of the ground.
"Oh hell." Said Tails, amazed by the boy's strength.
"Chi!" He cried out, charging the three of them and swinging the post like it was a small stick. He swings it wildly, circling his frail-looking body.
"This is not good. He's not giving us a chance to attack!" Knuckles yelled out. "He may be swinging it wildly, but by doing that, he's not showing us an opening!"
"Guys, c'mon!" Tails flew up high, and scooped up Sonic and Knuckles very easily. "That thing may be powerful and smart enough not to give us an opening, but I doubt that he can fly!"
"Smart move, Tails!" Sonic complimented his buddy. "Let's see him get us now!"
Taking only a few seconds to calculate, he was running towards a few meters away from where Tails was. Using the lamppost as a pole vault, the Persocom dug it into the ground, and lifted himself up, almost about to attack Tails.
"Don't think about it!" Knuckles yelled out, as he swung his body, causing Tails' flight momentum to be disturbed, but allowing the echidna to attack CHI with both feet, bringing him to the ground. "Yeah, you stay down!"
Tails lowered himself and his allies down, allowing Knuckles to charge into the Persocom, a punch digging itself into the cybernetic body, a cry of pain exiting the boy's mouth.
"Sonic, I'll leave this to you!"
"Thanks, Knuckles!"
Sonic jumped into the air, spinning in a circle around CHI's area, seeming to defy gravity, as a clear-blue tornado scooped CHI off his feet and dropped him hard onto the concrete. "How's that? You out of it, yet?"
A shot was fired, and the three animals looked up to see their old nemesis, Dr. Eggman.
"You have some nerve, picking on my new weapon, Sonic!"
"Weapon!?"
"That's right!" Eggman explained. "This is my newest weapon, Combat's Highest Intelligence, or CHI."
"It doesn't seem so intelligent. We brought it down easily!" Tails mocked the round doctor.
Eggman realized that, since he told CHI that Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles were the evil ones, he had to play the part. "I will not allow your villainous ruses to stop my quest to liberate Station Square from your evil, foolish hedgehog!"
"What's Eggman talking about?" Knuckles said.
"CHI! You must get up!"
The hedgehog, fox, and echidna turned back to see the Persocom struggling to get on his feet. Small sparks were flying off his body, and it almost seemed that an artificial tear came out of one of his eyes.
"Foo…" the boy's voice was being altered, thanks to the damage he sustained. "Foo… Foo… Foo…"
"What's he saying?" Sonic wondered.
"Foo… Foo…" the more he tried to speak, the angrier his voice became, and the sparks coming off his body were being channeled to his 'ears'.
"Run!" Knuckles shouted as he started to back away.
"Why?" Tails asked.
But it was too late.
"Foo… Fool… FOOLISH HEDGEHOG!!" CHI yelled out loud.
He released all the energy from his 'ears' and the built up energy rained itself down onto the area. Ground was being lifted up, trees were being blown away, and Eggman himself almost got caught in the explosion.
--
"Ow… my head." Sonic rubbed his head. He looked around to see Knuckles and Tails unconscious, surrounded by destroyed buildings. "Guys!" He ran over to them. "Tails, Knuckles, are you alright?"
"Whoa…" Knuckles came around. "That kid packed a wallop."
"Yeah." Tails said, getting himself up. "But what happened to CHI and Eggman?"
"Maybe they got swallowed up by the explosion?"
"Maybe CHI did. But Eggman's a coward. He wouldn't have gone back to save him." Sonic said. But now his voice was in a serious tone. "But with that much power, did he?"
--
Over the sea, Eggman's Egg-O-Matic was slowly heading its way back to the floating Egg Carrier.
"Curse that hedgehog! He foiled me again! He always does this!" His head turned around. "But not to worry. Once we get you back to full health, we'll plan a way to stop him."
In an added seat, a crumpled Persocom holding himself in the fetal position was sparking heavily, almost affecting the Egg-O-Matic. "Chi…"
"We'll get him, my boy. That vile hedgehog must be eliminated."
"That… v-vile… hedgehog… must be…" CHI's voice, despite it being affected by the sparks, now sounded deadly. "…eliminated!" And, with as much strength as it can muster, it started to laugh evilly before placing himself into sleep mode.

Well, what think?
