Ultimate Life Forms
A/N: Hey this is actually my second fic on this site. My first one was a flop and I dropped it eventually. I've read a bunch of the sonic fanfics and I must say there is a lot of crap floating around but there is the occasional great story that just makes me sit back and go WOW!!! I doubt this fic will do that for you. But it might. I don't have a Beta reader as of now so just hang with me and we'll see if this fic turns out to be worthwhile. By the way this IS another Shadow ain't dead hooray fic. Means thought and ^^means sound i.e. ^tak^ someone landing.. just thought you might want to know.
The pain was intense. He watched through half closed eyes as his fur began to fade back to black. He closed his eyes the rest of the way and waited for the rest of the Chaos power to drain from his body. I wish I could show that blue hedgehog who the faker is though
Knuckles the Echidna was sitting on the steps of the Master Emeralds shrine watching a show on his small satellite TV that Rouge had brought him on one of her visits. The TV suddenly went to static and Knuckles felt a stab of pain as the Master Emerald sent out a shockwave of chaotic power. Holding one hand to his head Knuckles stared as a sphere of crackling energy leapt into being at the base of the shrine. He noted that there seemed to be a dark form curled in the center of it. Once the Master Emerald had subsided and the sphere had dissipated Knuckles blinked in shock at the form laying on the scorched grass.
"Concentrate. Feel the energy flow through you. Control that energy." The mantra that Shadow had taught him right before they had fought the Final Hazard flowed through his mind as Sonic's eyes shot open and he shouted "CHAOS CONTROL!" He was suddenly moving at what seemed to be light speed but looking around things seemed to be moving in slow motion. In the next second he was standing outside the hotel in station square. He pushed the power back in the green Chaos Emerald and ran back upstairs to the suite he and Tails were sharing. "Wow! That was intense!" Tails shouted as Sonic re-entered the room. "One second you were there and the next Wham! Gone!" Sonic smiled at the enthusiasm of the young fox. "Did you get the readings?" The young fox glanced down at his laptop and grinned "Yep here they are!" Sonic smiled as well "That's great! Now maybe we can figure out what exactly I'm doing when I control the Chaos Power." Sonic tossed the emerald to Tails and said "I think I'm going to go lounge by the pool for a while just shout if you need me." Tails murmured something vague. Sonic shook his head and walked out of the room closing the door quietly so as not to disturb the Kitsune who was engrossed in his laptop deciphering exactly what the readings he had just taken meant.
Knuckles leapt off the stone step that he'd been resting on and landed with a loud ^tak^ When he saw who the figure was he raced back up the steps and grabbed the emergency satellite phone from it's power generator and dialed the number Rouge had given him franticly waiting for her to pick up. "Hello?" a drowsy voice sleepily moaned on the other end of the phone. "Rouge! It's Knuckles listen I need to get some air transportation up here I just got an unexpected visitor thanks to the Master Emerald and he seems to be hurt." Rouge ran her hand through her hair and moaned, "Do you have any idea how early it is here?" Knuckles growled in frustration "Rouge it's him! For some reason the Master Emerald warped him right up to my doorstep and he seems to be injured! Could you please send me some help!" Rouge suddenly sat straight up in her bed and whispered "Your not lying are you? I'll kill you if you are Knuckles!" Knuckles thought he was going to go insane! The crazy bat just wouldn't catch a clue here!
He blinked his eyes slowly and looked at his surroundings. "Where the hell am I?" He sat still for a few more minutes feeling his wounds heal and his obsidian fur grow back. Once he felt like he could he stood and took stock of what he had to work with. I'm alive, my hover skates are still functional, I'm missing one of my bracelets though. Unconsciously the black hedgehog scanned for a Chaos Energy signature. What he found almost blew his mind. "Holy Shit! What is that?" Looking more carefully at his surroundings he was surprised to find Knuckles the Echidna yelling into a bright yellow box. He shook his head at this and started to walk up the steps all the while feeling the source of the massive Chaos Energy flux growing stronger and getting closer.
Knuckles suddenly numb hands dropped his phone as the previously badly injured hedgehog slowly walked up the steps of the shrine right past the startled Guardian to stare into the depths of the Master Emerald. Knuckles started to walk towards the black and red hedgehog when the emerald started to glow and the six chaos emeralds that were in the shrine began to glow also. Knuckles senses were screaming as he shouted, "What the hell do you think your doing! I don't care whether you helped Sonic and us you still can't waltz in here and screw with the Master Emerald!" The hedgehog simply ignored him and continued to stare into the emerald. The Master emerald seemed to be having fits as it pulsed and Knuckles could see hairline cracks spring up on the Emerald. Knuckles lunged forward and grabbed on to the emerald working to keep it together using the techniques taught to him by Tikal. "Come on! Just hold on!" Knuckles felt the Master Emerald try and resist his technique for some reason it seemed to want to explode! The black hedgehog narrowed his eyes and shouted, "Chaos Control!" The Master Emerald abruptly stopped glowing and the six chaos emeralds lifted off their pedestals and floated down to hover in a circle around the black hedgehog. The hedgehog smirked and looked at Knuckles who seemed confused at what was happening. "Tell Sonic, Tell him I'm coming to finish what we started!" With that the black hedgehog disappeared in a sudden thunderclap of Chaos Energy.
In Station Square Sonic and Tails were looking at the green Chaos Emerald in awe as it pulsed and shook. Tails glanced at his mentor and asked, "S-Sonic what's it doing?" Sonic looked down at his adventuring companion and shook his head. "Tails I have no idea."
A/N Wow look at that! If that isn't a completely obvious set up I don't know what is! Well tune in next time for more fun and adventure with Sonic and the gang as Ultimate Life Forms continues!
