Plot twist! Thanks DMK! The chao own you!
Chapter 5: Change of Plans…Scribbles was the first to awaken from his slumber. He sat up from his makeshift bed in the sink and looked around at his still-sleeping friends. Boomer was curled up in a popcorn bowl, still wearing his X-Box headset. Ghost had the oven door down and turned it into a cot. Techno was quietly snoring in the dishrag drawer. The mute chao then heard a familiar voice…
"Zzz…Maria." The voice snored. Scribbles peered into the living room to see Shadow sprawled on the couch. He then scrawled out 'Gasp!' onto a sign and silently woke the others. They surrounded the ebony hog and started to attack him. Scribbles knocked him out cold with one of his signs. When Shadow came to, he was tied to a chair and Scribbles was wearing one of those fake mustaches.
' Velcome to Camp Chao. I must varn you that no one has ever escaped. It vould be best if you just tell us vat you know. If not, ve have vays of making you talk' he wrote in his best accent. It was then that Rouge came down the stairs and saw the scene.
"What are you doing to him!" the bat screamed.
" Shadow sent Omochao to destroy our garden!" Ghost stated.
" He also broke into your house!" Techno added.
" He ruined my X-Box!" Boomer wailed.
" It's okay! Shadow told me about it while you were asleep. He did it because Eggman told him that he would bring Maria back." Rouge explained as she untied Shadow. The black hedgehog had tears in his eyes.
" Eggman has a DNA sample of Maria. He stabbed me in the back. I would go kill him, but as long as he has that DNA I'm helpless…" Shadow sobbed. Ghost tapped him on the shoulder.
" We'll get Maria back! After all, we want a piece of him too!" the white chao assured him. The ultimate life form pulled out his Chaos Emerald and handed it to Ghost, who crammed it into the Froaster. Techno grabbed his bag filled with tools. Boomer started to grab fruit and cram it in a different bag.
" I'll call Sonic. He might be able to help…" Rouge started to say. Shadow stopped her, reminding her that if Eggman saw Sonic, he would destroy the DNA. The chao waved good-bye as they departed.
A few feet later, the tiny avengers decided that a ride would be good. Techno spotted a garage with a sport store next to it. In a couple hours, Ghost and Boomer snuck a skateboard out of the store while Techno and Scribbles drug an outboard engine. In a few more hours, the four chao sped to Eggman's fortress. Four unlikely heroes on a difficult mission.
Will they get Maria back? Find out in Chapter 6!
