Station Square- Main Street
Endigo ducked another punch from his feathered opponent. Bean, having used all his bombs, was now going hand to hand with the purple fox.
"What do you hope to accomplish from this, Bean?" Endigo asked of the duck, kicking him hard in the chest, sending him stumbling back. "What good can come from working with Metal Sonic?"
"Metal Sonic?" Bean stopped attacking Endigo, jumping back. Angrily, he shouted, "Now listen up. I might not be winning any greatest people awards, but I would never work with that despicable robot.!"
"Then why are you looking for Shadow?"
Bean thought for a moment. He could tell the fox that he was working with GUN, but he figured that would only exacerbate things. "I have my reasons." he stated simply.
"They can't be good ones, considering you tried to kill me for info." Endigo growled.
Bean smirked. "Well, at least I'm not a stalker, lover boy."
Endigo shouted angrily, charging forward. He kicked the duck with a flurry of punches and kicks. Bean flew back, flipping high up and landing on a pole. "Well, you're definitely defensive." Bean sighed. "Listen, that was out of line, I know, but you made a crack about me."
"Just tell me what you want."
"I just need a chance to speak with Shadow. He can help me in a great way. If you want, I'll leave as soon as I talk with him, but truthfully, if you're going after Metal Sonic, I want in."
"What? Why would you care about fighting Metal?" Endigo asked, puzzled.
Bean looked down, which, since he was high above, was a face Endigo could still see. His hand went to something under his red scarf. "Let's just say, I owe him something." Bean dropped from the pole, landing hard on the pavement. "Ouch."
"Alright, I guess you can come with me. But you're going to have to get good ole' Funk's permission. That's mainly because he controls the house, and he can tell it to kill you."
Bean raised a brow. "That's just a bit scary."
"Funk is a bit scary." Endigo chuckled. "Actually, Funk is a lot scary. Come on." with that, Endigo turned to head back to the plane, followed by Bean the Dynamite.
Salrose Desert- Base
Funk yawned, putting down the silver orb he was tinkering with. Endigo had yet to contact the base, as they had decided to call it, since he was at Celestial's, so he was working on his newest invention.
"Can't you do something from here?" Shadow said, annoyed. He was getting sick of playing the waiting game. He wanted to go out and kill Metal Sonic as soon as possible. "You have so many machines, can't one of them track him down?"
Agitatedly, Funk looked over his shoulder to the hedgehog sitting on the couch nearby. "For the last time, Shadow, until we heal, we're useless. As for these inventions, no, none of them can track Metal Sonic, because I never thought I'd need an invention for tracking Metal Sonic. Right now, all we can do is wait for Endigo."
"I still say you should do something?" the stubborn bioorganic being said, huffing.
"Oh, shut up!" the blue echidna yelled. He was sick of his current guest's annoying interjectors every few minutes. "I can't believe you're supposed to be the ultimate life form. Be patient!"
"I'm sorry if my presence annoys you, but you can shove it."
"If my leg wasn't broken, I'd-"
"Do nothing, cause you're leg is broken." Shadow cut in, smirking.
"Jerk." Funk was beginning to wonder if just handing the hedgehog over to Metal Sonic would be a bad idea.
Celestial's Hideout
The hedgird let out a scream of angry once again, slamming her fist through the support beam. She couldn't believe Endigo. Not only had he snuck into her place, but he'd also acted like a freak when she showed up, just staring at her. She began to kick the beam as hard, but she stopped, knowing it could topple and cause the roof to cave in on her.
However, she found that it wouldn't matter, because at that moment, a large red robot burst through the ceiling, a smaller blue one on its back. Too shocked to react, she was quickly taken down, and the apartment was soon deserted.
