Deleted Scene 3: Mona's Boss Battle

A/N: Takes place after Mona receives a transmission from Rouge. Chrome Buster is a minor Boss Character © me.

Mona's eyes widened. "I'd better get over there." She muttered before running at a fast pace towards the Security Hall level.

"Sir, we've detected another intruder on the island."

"What is it?" The general looked at the screen and had it play in slow-motion. "Tch, it's just a kid." He was about to turn and walk off before the user continued.

"She's got the sword with her."

"WHAT?" That got him to listen and he watched. "It must be one of Eggman's allies…he helped our prisoner escape and must've given the sword to her."

"What should we do sir?"

"…send Chrome Buster after her. If she doesn't surrender, we'll have no choice but to destroy her and take the sword back by force. We can't let the swordstay inthe hands of that lunatic."

Inside a hangar, a pair of glowing jade eyes suddenly flashed revealing that the said "Chrome Buster" was activated.

Mona continued her run through the forest, aware of the time limit and not wasting time. A moment later she heard the sounds of something large and metallic running towards her from behind.

"What the…?" Mona skidded to a sudden halt as a four-legged mech sprang over her and landed in front. "Uh-oh…" She swallowed as it faced her.

The mech was a chrome color and had jade green eyes. It was cat-like with its metallic ears pinned straight backwards. It had huge claws and a short appendage for a tail. It seemed to resemble an anime-type mech since it had fangs and blue shields on its back, legs, tail appendage, and face (on the forehead).

"There is no way my luck is that bad." Mona's eye twitched.

"Ha! She doesn't look that threatening! Chrome Buster, get her!" The general ordered.

The cat-robot released a robotic drone (from War of the Worlds) before charging at the brunette who let out a yelp of panic and dodged. She then tried to get back on track only to find it blocked by the robot.

"Eh…nice kitty…" Mona backed up as it advanced menacingly. "Maybe I have a toy mouse… (Pause)…or maybe I'm the toy mouse…not that I wanted to be in the first place."

"Uh…voice-in-head? A little help! Something? I'M IN DEEP TROUBLE HERE!"

"I can't! I'm busy with other matters!" The voice replied.

"OH THANKS A LOT!" Her eyes narrowed.

The robot took this time to swipe at her only to miss. The brunette was obviously having the worst time of her life before grabbing the sword and aiming a powerful jolt of electricity at its forehead.

ZIIT!

The electricity knocked it off balance and sent the robot colliding into another part of the forest, the trees in its path fell atop one another.

"HA! I KNEW THAT THING WAS A PUSHOVER!" Mona shouted triumphantly before a tree was hurtled at her. "Uh-oh." Using whatever speed was in her new shoes, she dodged and came to an abrupt halt just as the robot came smashing out of the forest in its wake. The blue shield on its forehead was scorched and chipping from the massive amount of electricity.

"Should we send reinforcements?" The guard asked.

"No…she's capable of using the sword. I want to see if she is actually the Charger Emerald Warrior spoken of in that old legend."

"But what about Eggman and the…?"

"QUIET! Can't you see I'm watching something!"

"Okay Mona, remember: in boss battles you need to hit these guys more than once…pretty easy, right?" Mona kept her stance with the sword as she made eye contact with the robot. "Let's see what this thing has: claws, armor, and probably some other robotic abilities. Okay…just keep calm and don't get scratched…kay?"

She immediately saw the robot shining a red light at her from is open jaw and her knowledge of the boss battles made her run from it in realization before a blast of energy collided into the ground where she was earlier.

"I can't make a run for it…so I guess I'll have to beat this stupid thing. (Sigh) I cannot believe I'm about to do this…" Immediately, Mona ran towards a tree and stopped at least a foot away before shouting. "Here kitty-kitty-kitty! Get your mousy!"

Chrome Buster roared before charging at her only to miss, since she had jumped at the last possible moment, and collided with the tree trunk. It shook its head and a small portion of the armor came off revealing a greenish glow.

"Ah-ha… Now I've got it…" She continued looking at the blue shields on the robot. "It's just like the Egg-Golem!" Immediately after realizing her advantage, Mona delivered a strong slash to one of the leg shields that broke off and showed a bright green color as well. Mona grinned triumphantly, slashing the green chaos drive that was embedded inside the rear left leg. The chaos drive's color dulled as the leg deactivated.

The robot staggered as it was off-balance before Mona severed the tail and jumped back as it tried to claw her again.

"I've got to make this quick…I haven't got much time…" She glanced at the time and back at the robot.

Seven minutes left…

"Where's a super attack when you need one?" The brunette scowled before charging at the robot, dodging a well aimed claw, breaking a shield, dodging, sending out lightning bolts, destroying a chaos drive embedded in the right forepaw, and finally pouncing on the forehead.

Chrome Buster immediately began trying to shake her off despite it was now completely off balance.

"C'mon…tip over for me!" Mona clung onto the robot's 'ears' and the sword before clutching the shield's end. It was a bit sharp and she tried to ignore the pain coming from her fingertips. Her teeth clenched and she sharply breathed through them before finally tearing off the shield on the forehead revealing the full glow of the chaos drive inside before slashing it out. "BULLZEYE!"

With its energy depleted, the cat-robot's green eyes fizzled to a dark green before collapsing on itself. "My first boss battle… That…was…AWESOME!" She immediately ran off towards Security Hall yet again, smiling the whole time. "YAHOO!

Okay…so maybe she was a little too ecstatic about winning her first boss battle.

"Impossible! One of our strongest robots was beaten by a mere child!"

"I suppose to her it was just Child's Play." The guard laughed before getting nailed on the head. "OW!"

"Weren't you supposed to be monitoring the island!"

"Uh…yes sir!"

"THEN GET TO IT! Idiot…"

Well…that's it until I make another. R&R!
