Chapter 3: Leaked information
"Do you have any Bob the Bakers?" Everybody gave Tails confused looks
"Tails, we're playing poker, plus there's no Bob the Baker." Knuckles corrected him
"Yeah okay, but there seems that on this card there's a picture of a na..."
"WHO MIXED UP MY CARD SETS?" Knuckles looked suspiciously at Sonic
"Well sorry for trying to spice up a game where you have to sit down for more than 5 minutes" Sonic explained, his leg twitching a bit
"Hay, this ones a man..." Cream observed
"Yeah I mixed it with some of Amy's cards while I was at it." An evil grin was formed on Sonic's face
"What's a 12 year old doing with a deck with..."
"Lets just get back to the game" Amy interrupted, looking embarrassed. Sonic took all the cards and sorted all the cards into there proper decks at supersonic speed. Sonic then shuffled a Suitable deck and passed cards to Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Cream without slowing down. Knuckles pick up his cards and sneered, Tails seemed slightly disappointed that there was no 'Bob the Baker', Amy was just staring at Sonic and Cream had picked up her cards, keeping her little finger outstretched. Knuckles moved a few chips forward
"I bet... £10" Knuckles smiled slightly, egging Sonic on, who returned the smile
"I match your bet Knuckles" Sonic announced. Everyone else did as well. Knuckles shacked his head and placed down his cards
" 3 Kings" Knuckles chuckled slightly.
" 5 Kings" Tails laughed happily
" Errr... Tails..." Sonic began before a word on the news caught his attention
"...G.U.N camp. Two Doctors in the camp witnessed the attack. They reported the attacker to be the famous Terrorist, Dr Ivo Robotnik, who stole a classified weapon. Fears have arose we have a second 'A.R.K incident' on our hands...
"How did this get out, who, why..." The President struggled to make sense. The head of the F.B.I stood in front of him, slightly uneasy; he was keeping an unemotional face and was keeping any movement to a minimal.
"You know how the media is, like vultures..." The F.B.I head kept his straight face as the President considered what he said
"But, there was no way they could have..."
"This isn't the first time something like this has happened, they found out about, say..." The president sighed
"What was this confidential weapon he took?" The F.B.I head shuffled slightly and looked to the ground
"It was... er project... emm Shadow." The President was taken aback, he started to choke slightly
"Project Shadow, IT'S ALIVE? IT'S IN THE HANDS OF EGGMAN?!?" The F.B.I head was about to answer, but stopped himself. "...Look, get it back, I don't care how, the people you put on this mission will be untouchable by the law." The President sank into his chair, shaking his head. The head of the F.B.I scratched the back of his head and his eyes darted around the room
"I think the best candidate for this mission would be, Rouge..."
"Don't you think having her untouchable by law might be a bad idea?"
"She is our best shot..."
"Fine, whatever" The President sighed, "Why can't we just destroy this 'Shadow'?"
"Well, last time we tried, it lead to... un-pleasantries..."
Metal Sonic looked unimpressed. Gerald's Ultimate life form was, what? A hedgehog, a simple organism, no advanced cellular structure, no additional Technology, pathetic. The doctor is going to defeat Sonic with some outdated black Sonic? Just pathetic. Eggman stood over a set of controls, staring at Shadow as he floated in a green liquid, connected by wires. This machine was keeping all his statistics in order. Metal Sonic moved over to one of Eggman's computers. He flipped open a small panel on his left arm and pulled a small wire out. He then proceeded to connect the wire from him to the computer. Eggman looked away from Shadow to look at the monitor. 'This is your ultimate weapon?' wrote itself on the screen. Eggman made a small laughing like sound
"He is more powerful than he looks, beside this is not my Ultimate weapon" Eggman gave a sinister grin. The words erased themselves and replaced themselves with 'You think he is powerful? He simply looks like some deranged Sonic fan.' Eggman glanced back at Shadow. "He will wake up soon, after I 'fill' him in, you'll can test his power." Metal Sonic nodded and disconnected himself from the computer. Eggman returned to the control panel. "Ah, you might get your chance sooner than suspected."
The A.R.K had come into the Earth atmosphere, this time at a safe speed. Rouge and Mighty watched as the members of the operation landed the Ark in a large uninhabited area of Texas. Rouge looked at Mighty, he had gone curiously quiet. She had considered starting to spark a conversation, but she remembered that this was just how Knuckles use to get, and it's best not to interrupt him when he's like that.
"What of impotents is on this ship?" Mighty had his eyes closed as he talked. Rouge was taken by surprise.
"What?" No sooner had Rouge said that when an explosion broke the south facing wall. Mighty jump up on the North wall and watched as a robot walked out of the smoke and rubble. Rouge, slightly shocked by the explosion stood unmoving as the robot scanned the area.
"What is he after?" Mighty shouted
"No clue" Rouge shouted, snapping out of the shock. The robot finished his scan and clenched his fist
"Scan complete: objective: containable, Threat: minimal, chance of success: 95.261%" The robot started to make his way to his objective, seemingly unnoticing Mighty and Rouge. Mighty lowered his brow. He jumped at the robot. The robot just managed to look before being hit hard.
"Minimal threat my..."
"Look out!" Mighty turned to be whacked by a fist as large as his face. Mighty stumbled back a bit, shacked it off, and returned the favour. The Robot attempted another fist to face, but Mighty ducked. Mighty noticed some writing on the Robots shoulder.
"E-115?" Mighty muttered as he jumped over the Robots second fist. Mighty clenched his right hand as he landed behind E-115. He flinged his fist in the direction of E-115. E-115 grabbed the flying fist and gave Mighty a uppercut punch with his other hand. As Mighty flied upwards. E-115 was then hit from behind with a flying kick, courtesy of Rouge. E-115 turned around and grabbed Rouge by the neck. Mighty rushed to the rescue. E-115 swung angrily with his free arm at Mighty. Mighty grabbed the swinging arm and disconnected it in one quick blow. E-115 now released Rouge to fight against Mighty. Rouge gasped for breath as Mighty dodged E-115's remaining arm. Rouge took a deep breath and returned to the action
" 'fraid I'm going to have to spoil your fun boys." Rouge said as she let loose a kick into the robots chassis. E-115 was tossed to the ground hard. the sound of breaking machinery came from within. Mighty gave a slight sigh and Rouge looked down at the robot confidently. Suddenly Mighty looked startled and turned around. In the hole made by E-115 an identical robot stood, holding a disk
"Objective complete: Maria Journal secured." Flames started to come out of the robots feet, which boosted him away at amazing speed
"let me guess" Mighty turned to Rouge "There was an E-116 here just now."
