Chp 03: Bloodshed
Tails' Workshop
"Hello, prototypes." Shine said to his fellow projects. The four warriors were prepared to try to fight the creature. Suddenly, Sonic snapped. He tried to rush the hedgehog, but it was a futile attempt. The silver warrior wrapped his left hand around the blue hedgehog's throat.
"What do we do know?" Knuckles asked, holding his ground.
"Nothing." Endigo answered. "If we move, Shine might kill him immediately." the trio then saw a flash of orange fly by them, aimed right at Sonic. The silver fighter began to punch through his captive, but Sonic was replaced with Tails just before impact. As the blue hero was falling, he heard the fist collide with the kitsune, sending him flying through his own workshop. The fox finally stopped, after crashing halfway through the mountainside.
"Tails!!!" Sonic shouted, struggling to his feet. The blue hedgehog ran over to his friend and began to dig him out. Once the fox was free, Sonic observed him. He was covered in deep gashes all over his body, his orange fur darkened by blood. "Are you okay, buddy?"
"I'll be fine. Just defeat Shine." with that, the kitsune passed out, barely breathing. Tears began to stream down the hedgehog's face. Meanwhile, Shadow and Shine had entered a standoff. The black warrior began to power up the Chaos Emerald he had gotten from Endigo.
"Chaos Spear!" the beams of light shot through the silver creature's body. As he fell, the hole's began to regenerate.
Before he hit the ground, he back flipped to his feet and yelled, "Chaos Eclipse! Focus!" a laser similar to the one in Station Square, only smaller, shot towards the hedgehog. Before he could react, he was engulfed in the blast. In a few seconds, once he realized he wasn't being hurt, he opened his eyes to see Endigo powering a Chaos Shield. Shadow used his emerald to help hold up the barrier. Knuckles remained where he stood, not wanting to break his friends concentration.
Big's Boat
"Of all the people that could have survived, why those three?" Amy said to Big as the others in the ship ate. The trio was made of Lock, Nack, and Eggman. They had been planning to attack the great city themselves, but the silver hedgehog beat them to it.
"What do you have against us anyway?" Lock asked.
"What do you expect me to do, worship you? All you have ever tried to do is take over the world."
"I resent that remark." the armadillo replied. "I tried to blow it up."
"Whatever. All I know is that you're all pure evil. If it wasn't for Big letting you stay, all three of you would be in the sea." the hedgehog turned to the purple cat. "Where are we headed, buddy."
"I figured we should go and see if Tails and the others are alright. So we're going to the Mystic Ruins." the ship continued along, with the five survivors of the first assault along for the ride.
Tails' Workshop
The second wave consisted of Espio, Omega, Gamma, MS and Vector, Rouge staying behind to protect Cream and Charmy. Espio knew that he had to stop the Chaos Eclipse if he wanted to save his friends. He pulled out a shuriken and aimed it at the Chaos Emerald. As the emerald fell from Shine's hand, the blast stopped.
Shine turned to his attackers and grabbed the emerald from the place where it had landed. "Chaos Spear!!!" the beams ripped through the heroes, causing their bodies to fall, bleeding badly. The robots just blew up. Shine then addressed his original targets. "You got lucky this time, prototypes. But when we meet again, I will finish you off, once and for all." with that, the silver hedgehog disappeared, leaving behind a group of defeated heroes.
