TIME WARP: PART THREE

Matt Duszynski

Matt: I was going to close the story, but I decided not to! Too many loose ends to tie up, and some new characters making their debut. I would like to thank Kyra the Hedgehog and Skye the Hedgehog for letting me use their fan characters in this story. By the way, OH GOD! PLEASE DON'T KILL ME! There's a good reason why my previous version of the chapter sucked. I had a guest writer write it, and it sucked. Lesson learned: Don't have people guest write a story. Will you forgive me? You aren't going to forgive me are you? Tails, I need the armor now.

Reader That Keeps Hurting Me: (prepares to throw bowling ball)

Matt: SECURITY!

Security: HUT! (takes guy away)

Matt: That's over with.

Tails: Remember the other thing?

Matt: No.

Tails: Umm… you told me to remind you about something.

Sonic: What about me?

Tails: You should be happy. In the sequel to this story, you get-

Matt: I SAID DON'T REVEAL ANY INFORMATION! (shoots with tranquilizer) How are the readers holding up?

Other Readers: (gurgle)

Matt: Okay… REVIEW ANSWERING TIME!

To Kyra the Hedgehog: I know. I wish I had more reviews. Oh well. One can dream.

To Skye the Hedgehog: Glad you find it funny.

To Max Fuchs: NO! The prized white-hot poker has been taken again! Time to hide in the bunker.

To SimsFan: I agree! (plays theme song "Breaking the Laws of Physics") Also, the AUTHOR'S POWERS™ come free with every story written. Also, you can sign up for a permanent package on authorspowers dot com (NOTE: NOT A REAL WEBSITE. PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ACQUIRE PERMANENT AUTHOR'S POWERS.)

To lilchoiboy18: So it was you throwing the knife! I will exact my revenge! SECURITY AGAIN!

Security: HUT! (takes lilchoiboy18 away)

Matt: You are henceforth on probation. If you attempt to use violence, my security team will bust you up.

MYSTIC RUINS

TAILS' LAB

9:00 AM

"So Tails, why did you build a time machine, anyway?"

"Well, Sonic, I was going to go back in time and kill or abuse Eggman."

STATION SQUARE

THREE HOURS LATER…

"That's a pretty good idea, Tails."

"IT'S BEEN THREE HOURS AND JUST NOW YOU'RE REACTING?"

At that moment, Sonic and Tails turned the corner and smashed into two other hedgehogs.

"Excuse us."

"Excuse us too."

"Ok, you're excused."

"You're excused too."

"That was weird."

"I agree."

"So… what are your names?"

"My name's Skye, and this one's Kyra."

"This one? You could at least refer to me as 'she' or 'her'."

"Sorry."

"Apology accepted, it."

"Now you refer to me correctly!"

"Whatever. Anyway, what's your name?"

"I'm Sonic, and this little fox over here is Tails."

"Little! Usually, you can't save the town without my help!"

"Why I oughta…"

"Hey! Now I remember you! Were you the one they made that big statue of in Central Park? Who was that guy next to you?"

"Actually, the two people in the background are me and Tails. The larger statue is Shadow."

"Who's Shadow, and why'd they build a statue of him?"

"The town built the statue because he saved the world from total destruction, dying in the process. Then, it was revealed that he didn't die. As for who he is, why not ask him yourself."

Indeed. Shadow had appeared directly behind them moments before the collision.

"Hey Sonic, Tails. Who are these two ladies you've bumped into so rudely?"

"Umm… (whispering) what were their names again?"

"My god, Sonic. You are so bad with names. The light blue one is Skye, and the dark gray one is Kyra."

"Hey Tails! I just realized that Skye's name is like the word sky, and the sky is light blue."

"Oh boy, you are so dense."

"Well, ladies, how about I treat you to lunch?"

"(Sonic mumbling in undertones) Dang that Shadow, such a slippery operator…"

"Sonic and Tails, would you like to come too?"

"(Sonic not mumbling anymore) Of course!"

ZE LUNCHEON PLAZẺ

(REALLY NICE OUTDOORSY LUNCH PLACE WITH CORNY NAME)

COUPLE OF MINUTES LATER…

"So Kyra, where are you from? I haven't seen you around here, so you must be new."

"I did just move here."

"From where?"

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Come on."

"I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT!"

"(Sonic, in a small weenie voice while shrinking away in SD form) Ok…"

"Where are you from, Skye?"

"Well…"

Just then, a large rock crushed the restaurant, miraculously avoiding the table everyone was sitting at.

"Do you know what this means?"

"What?"

"FREE LUNCH!"

TAILS' HASTILY BUILT VERY LARGE OUTDOOR REFRIGERATOR

12:55 PM

"I think we kind of got greedy when we loaded all the food onto the Tornado II and left."

"Yeah, but we can save money this way."

"You could also save money by switching to GEICO Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance! (AN: Story not endorsed by GEICO.)"

"When did this little pipsqueak lizard get here?"

"Pipsqueak? I could… mmmph! Mmmph!"

"(holding jar with lizard inside) Amazing! I'll have to take this back to my lab for further study!"

"Tails, we're right outside your lab."

"Be right back!"

Well, Tails studied the lizard for five hours. Everybody eventually broke into his lab, had a party, and trashed the place. Tails was in a deep scientific trance, and didn't hear a thing. That is, of course, until he came out of the upper room.

"WHAT THE (horn honks twice)! SOMEBODY IS GOING TO PAY FOR THIS, AND IT IS NOT GOING TO BE ME! Computer, activate anti-speed shield!"

A big plastic cage came down around everyone.

"I want to know who's idea it was to throw a party INSIDE my lab, and what happened to my nuclear reactor, and wait… the nuclear reactor is damaged. That's not good."

"Tails, I think I have a good idea why that's not good, but please explain."

"Certainly Shadow. It's not good because the containment field for the chaos-driven plutonium feed conduit will offline in ten minutes. The plutonium will then react with the main power distribution core and cause a chain reaction, which will destroy everything left in the lab."

"That's what I thought."

"Well, I didn't get all of that, but I think we need to get everything out of the lab."

"Sonic, however dense he is, is absolutely right. Shadow, you take all the computers, and put them in the Tornado II. Sonic, you take all the various small inventions, and everything in the upper lab, and put them in the Tornado III. Kyra, Skye, basically grab anything you can and put it tin the Tornado. I'll grab the mainframe server, and put it in the Tornado IV."

"Tornado IV?"

"Prototype. Move, people! MY lab's going to blow in seven minutes, and we aren't leaving until everything's safe."

SIX AND A HALF MINUTES LATER

6:03 PM

ESTIMATED TIME UNTIL LAB EXPLOSION: 27.3 Seconds

"Tornado II, cleared for flight."

"See ya, Tails!"

"Tornado III cleared for flight."

"Get moving. See you later."

"Tornado cleared for flight."

"Tails?"

"What, Kyra?"

"Neither of us are certified pilots."

"Well… neither am I."

"Really?"

"No. Just go! Tornado IV cleared for takeoff."

And with that, the four planes sped away from the once-lab area, now concealed in a blossoming mushroom cloud.

"Hey Sonic. Sonic? Turn the radio on, you (phone ringing) ! That's better."

"What do you want, Tails?"

"You know, you owe mw $17,298,193 for all the other times you've blown up my lab, and another $9,821,374 for the nuclear reactor and plutonium."

"WHAT! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

(Breaking the Habit)

I don't know what's worth fighting for

Or why I have to scream.

I don't know why I instigate

And say what I don't mean.

I don't know how I got this way

I'll never be all right.

So I'm breaking the habit

I'm breaking the habit tonight!

(record scratch)

"Tails, turn off the music."

And that's the end of the newly revised third chapter. Completely random, and completely different. By the way, the first two people who can tell me where this is from get to request what a chapter be about or get to introduce a new character.

MECHANIC: SOMEBODY SET US UP THE BOMB.

OPERATOR: WE GET SIGNAL.

The first two people to tell me what that's from get to request what a chapter be about or get to introduce a new character.

I leave you with this-

These are the voyages of the writer death88.

To explore strange new ideas,

To seek out new thoughts and new creativity

To boldly go where no fanfic has gone before!"
