Meet up in the Cave

Chapter 8:

The duo reached the cave after a suspicious phone call,

"Tsuki Hoshi! Where are you?" the mysterious lady on the phone said,

"We're on the trial to Eggman's hidden base, don't worry Komissar. Wait, don't hang up. Tell me, who are you? Do you really work for the Dark Legion?" Moon-star asked,

"Just go to the Emerald Hills! The third on the right will lead you to him." and with that, she hung up,

"I knew it. Komissar knows where Eggman is. For some reason she's also behind this." Remington accused.

"Shh…" Remington said, "Hear that? It's coming from the end of this cave."

"Dimitri's late! I might just have to roboticize you if he doesn't get here soon."

"You wouldn't! You need me to tell you where the chaos emeralds are on this island." Robotnik sighed,

"You don't know half of what's going on do you? I guess I can tell you the whole story. Not only will my payment give me total power on the Great Forest and soon the whole Mobius, but what they don't know is that I have polluted your wretched city. Soon no one will be alive on this island, and I will create an Ultimate Air Base for my Egg Fleet! There is no one who can help you're little world now!" Remington could take no longer, and ran into the room, and raised his gun,

"I don't even need to put you under arrest! I am NOT afraid to shoot!" with that said, he pulled the trigger, and hit Eggman right in the chest, and then again, and again, and again. Moon-star ran up behind him in horror,

"Remington!" Remington grinned and turned around,

"You were right Moon-star. There was a death tonight." but suddenly Moon-star looked more horrified,

"You…you didn't kill him…Remington! Look behind you!!!" and then suddenly Remington saw Eggman standing right behind him,

"Did you know? I am not a human. The human Eggman was murdered by Sonic a long, long time ago. I am a robot from another dimension you twit!" he raised his hand, and faced Knuckles, "And I have another trick up my sleeve. I have the power to roboticize with a single touch*! I will transform Knuckles into a robot and make you yesterday's lunch! Or…" he walked over to a giant machine, "This could kill you. With a press of a button I can send a deadly laser beam that will cut right through you! So what's the choice?"

"The choice is ours Eggman!" shouted Komissar running into the room, with a dozen of Dark Legion grunts behind her, "The only way to kill a machine is to bug it! We have the power to shut you offline due to our new weapon!" she held out a glass tube with a tiny robotic cockroach in it, "Once I let this out, all mechanical things will be shut down. You will not destroy Angel Island! It is OURS!" Eggman looked aghast,

"Well…plan Z." he disappeared in a flash of green,

"Where'd he go?" Moon-star said, "And why are you here?"

"Listen Tsuki, Eggman wanted Dimitri to go by himself. It was to dangerous for Dimitri, so we hired you to get Knuckles for us. But since you brought him along," she pointed at Remington, "The plan's in total chaos. We don't know where Eggman is, but he will most likely return in some giant robot and make quick dust over Angel Island," she unbuckled and unlatched Knuckles from his spot, "Knuckles. You must fight for the Dark Legion once again." Knuckles looked around,

"I won't! You'll get me when my guard's down. Remington, Ms. Tsuki, I will go with you and we will deal with Eggman together."

"Fine Knuckles! But you won't be happy when you find out that your friends die!"

*By now you know that this fan fiction is the future of Archie Sonic Comic. As you know, in issue 118, Eggman becomes a human. But in the future, he roboticizes himself, and regains the ability to touch something and make it a robot like him.
