"The Source of Power"
Chapter Two

Watch your head! Legal Stuff! Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Robotnik are property of Sega of America. Sally, Rotor, Antoine, Bunnie and others are property of DIC and Archie Comics.
If anyone tries to alter this story in anyway whatsoever, I shall bring together the forces of pop music and have them sing a wonderful song for the Earth. But there would be one small problem. They would sing all at the right intonations that your brain would liquefy inside of your skull. Extreme measures, I know, but I like my stories.
Also, if you would like to have these stories for anything (fat chance), then you can email me at the following address. nwovincent at yahoo dot com.
Ok the danger has passed. Let's get to the story...
---- Ring Pool, The Next Day ----
Sonic, Rotor, Bunnie and Antoine all stand next to the Ring Pool, looking in as Sally comes up for air again with a gasp, "That's it. I can't find it...it's not under there."
Sonic's eyes widen as she says this, shaking his head, "It has to be down there somewhere, Sal. I can't believe that someone could just take that."
Sally climbs out of the pool as she does look spooked by it, "Our patrols don't report seeing any of Robotnik's army near here either. There was nobody through here all night that was seen at least."
Antoine steps up with a nod, "I can be for saying zis myself. None of zee men have seen anything..."
Rotor scratches the back of his head, "That only leaves either a 'bot we have no idea of how to trace or have ever seen before...or we have a traitor."
Bunnie looks at all of them, quite worried as it shows in her voice, "Either one big guy, or several of 'em, hun. Ah just don't know..."
Sally shakes her head, "Well, we aren't going to find out anything by just standing here. We have to know if Robotnik has the weapon. Since he also has Charles, he could technically get him to harness the power of it. And we all know we don't want that to happen."
Sonic and the rest of the crew nod and look to her, Sonic speaking up first, "I could blast by 'ol Robobutt's town...see if anything new is going on."
Rotor is next with a nod, "I think I may be able to program something into Nicole if you want to take her. To focus in on the power of the rings. Do you still have one, Sonic?"
The hedgehog looks cautious, but nods, "I have one back in my backpack, Rote. Just be careful...we don't have another...and I need it to fight Robotnik when I get there."
Sally nods and looks to the group, "Okay. It is settled. We look for the Ring Machine and try to get it back...I will go with Sonic to scope out the town and use Nicole."
Sonic's eyes widen, "But Sal, it's gonna be too..."
"Dangerous? I think it is no more dangerous than if he figures out how to use the rings."
He can only nod to her as he sighs, "Fine. But we go at my pace. I can't slow down for ya, Sal. We have to get that thing back."
Nodding, The Princess looks to them, "Okay. Meet back in Knothole in an hour and give me what you have...we do this tonight."
---- Robotropolis ----
Deep in one of the labs, Robotnik's eyes are almost aflame with devilish glee as he looks over the machine in front of him, "This is a great find Snively. You say that Charles is on his way?"
Snively sneers with a nod, "Yes, Sir. He is being pulled from the line as we speak and transported here."
The Doctor chuckles roughly, hands smoothing over the casing, "You say all he wanted was the one ring for this?" His eyes dance over the machinery that is used to give that wretched Hedgehog his power. Those rings. He had to gain the power in some way to favor him.
The assistant and nephew to him walks over toward him with a nod, "Yes. He thought he could use it...for himself. After we threw him out and gave him a nice payment for it...I don't think he will be going back to them anytime soon."
The door of the lab brushes open as Robotnik turns to see the form of Sir Charles standing in the door way, metal gleaming off of the dull blue color of his now metal prison. He drones out in a voice shared by the many slavebots that he has working for him, "You called, Master?"
The red almost glowing eyes narrow in thought, then look with a deep smile, an evil one at that, as he walks over toward Chuck, "Do tell me...Charles....do you remember how this device works?"
The drone merely nods his head once, "Yes."
That same glee comes out again, "Can you perhaps, build a weapon...out of the same technology...using the same power?"

A/N: And that's a wrap for Chapter 2. More of course to come...but the story is hopefully at least coming together. I may be rushing things, but I would like you to either affirm that, or back me up on the current pace. There is much to be revealed yet, so as asked for last time...gimme reviews! I like me some reviews. They often taste like my favorite food. ...Review Flambé.
