Chp 06: Meet the Team
Grand Design Base
"LECKO MILON!!!" the loud voice rang out across the inner layer of the mountain. All of the group members, even the weak Tempa, turned to see a large, strong warrior coming towards them, followed by many gunmen. They were soon surrounded and they realized that the warrior was a gecko. A group of nurses came and took Tempa away. "How many times do I have to tell you that you can't continue attacking those camps ?! You could get hurt, son!"
The leader turned to see who was with his son and gasped at the familiar faces. He was ready to tell his men to attack, when Lecko intervened. "Don't worry, dad. I've checked them all out. They are NOT our enemy." the younger reptile pulled his visor off and revealed the pleading eyes of a seventeen year old. "Please believe me, pops."
"Fine, but they're going under a T-test before I listen to anything. Jake, take them to the place." a squirrel stepped forward and kept his gun going from one to the other repeatedly. As the three walked away from Lecko, he waved and mouthed good luck. The trio was amazed by the starlit sky above that was visible through the mouth of the mountain. They eventually reached a small, square building with two doors, one on the left and the right. The heroes were pushed into the left room and the door was locked.
"What are we waiting for, anyway?" the echidna was answered by a hissing sound from the ceiling. Before they could do anything about it, a purple gas had entered their systems and they were out.
Lecko's Home
Endigo jolted up and was prepared to fight when he realized that he was in somebody's bed. He climbed out and found his friends stranding before him. "What happened to us?"
Knuckles answered. "The leader thought that we had to be tested, so he had a truth serum entered into our streams. He said that it had to be unknown that it was happening or we would fight it off."
"I say he just wanted to see us out of the loop." Shadow added coldly.
"In any case, we told them the truth and we are now members of Grand Design."
"That might be a short lived agreement." the trio saw Lecko walk into the room.
"What are you talking about?" the fox asked.
"A few of the Generals is on the way here. Metal Robotnik must have found a way to keep track us. It doesn't really matter how though. We don't have time to escape to the sea base. Grand Design is finished."
"Not if we can help it." Lecko saw that the three warriors had smug looks on their faces. "You tell your father to transport the people here to wherever he plans to take them. We'll take care of the Generals."
"But what about you?! You won't be able to find us!"
"That doesn't matter at this point." Shadow began. "It's about time that we take the fight to Gerald himself. We've beaten him before, and by taking out the Generals, we'll do it again." the lizard was prepared to leave. "One more thing. Thanks for your help."
And with that, he was gone.
Beachfront
The warriors stood on the beachside and saw the Generals coming in a flight formation. There were three of them in all. As they landed, they caused the heroes to tense up. It was exactly who they had expected: themselves.
