Episode Nine
The Escape?
Agent Kent began to move into the room; the doctor followed. Rouge began to panic. Her mind raced with possible escape plans, but found none. She was in a hospital bed, with broken limbs...
The thought had never crossed her mind: She had hugged Tails and felt no pain. She moved her leg. Nothing. She was, remarkably, fully healed.
Agent Kent was coming in close. Rouge didn't have time to make decision; she would have to risk it.
With an acrobatic leap she lunged off of the hospital bed, over Kent, landed on the floor, and slid under the doctor. Astonished at her accomplishment, she didn't care to watch out for the big desk outside the door.
The desk halted her slide and she got up and began to run on her newly healed leg.
"Doctor Gibson! Agent Kent! Subject Two-four-zero-six is getting away!" screamed a young secretary.
"We were perfectly aware of that!" Gibson yelled back as he and the tuxedo agent ran quickly after Rouge. They followed her down two long hallways until lasers fired at them from Tails's ray gun halted them.
"C'mon Rouge!" he cried as she followed him out to the Tornado. They hopped in and Tails quickly flew the plane away from the building.
That's no hospital! Rouge thought to herself looking down at the gray building, that's a G.U.N. facility!
The giant "G" insignia of the G.U.N. force was painted largely on the roof of the main building. Several small buildings around it had the same symbol, only smaller.
"Tails!" Rouge shouted, "How did you get in there?"
Tails didn't respond. He seemed to be focused on flying.
"Tails!" she shouted louder.
Some compartments inside the cockpit opened and purple gas began to spray out. Rouge began to cough. She felt herself becoming lighter and lighter. Her eyelids were like weights. She was instantly asleep.
She didn't see where the plane was headed. She didn't hear Metal Sonic's sinister laugh from the front seat.
