Shadow's Secret
Chapter Six
The exact same as the last chapter.
"We have to destroy Flash and save Tikal, no matter the cost." Jayln said, sprinting as fast as she could. Kai nodded, running side be side with Jayln.
"C'mon! We don't have all day!" Tails yelled from in front of them, at least 30 yards ahead. Shadow and Vinny were even further ahead.
"He better hope I don't catch up to him, for when I do..." Kai muttered. They stopped when the saw Tails stop.
"CRAP! What the shit did I hit?" Shadow exclaimed. Tails started examining the area. Tails sighed in slight annoyance.
"God, another friggin' forcefield. When will they learn?" Tails growled. Kai walked towards the force field, and was given an electric shock, and her arm started...smoking?
"Crap! My mechanical arm! I mean...my normal arm! I'll be right back!" Kai yelled as she ran behind the tree. They heard screwdrivers and wrenches being turned.
"She really needs to stop smoking whatever it is she's smoking..." Vinny said, shaking his head. (Sorry, kai-senpai.) Kai came back, her arm normal again.
"The shield is down!" Tails exclaimed. Jayln and Kai wasted no time and ran inside. They threw open the door, and ran inside.
"Now they go fast..." Tails grumbled, aggravated. Vinny and Tails sprinted in, followed by Shadow. Inside, there was a fork in the road. Jayln grabbed Shadow's hand and ran off towards the left, whilst Tails flew ahead to the right, leaving Kai and Vinny behind.
"Go ahead, I need to do something first." Vinny said. Kai shrugged and left. Vinny touched the center bead on his necklace. A small screen popped up, and Flash appeared.
"The targets Alpha, Beta, Delta, and Gamma are inside. I couldn't locate Faker, as well as Micro and Giga. Alpha and Beta are heading your way. Delta and Gamma have taken the path that leads to the prisoner cells. Over and out." Vinny said, touching the bead again. The screen slid into the bead, and disappeared.
Jayln and Shadow ere running down the hallway. They came into a room with a single weak light on. A figure was standing in a small corner, her back to Shadow.
"Tikal!" Shadow cried, as he ran towards her.
At Amy's house...
"I feel Shadow's in danger. We need to help." said Tikal. She stood up, and teleported out of the room. Amy shrugged, and started applying glitter to her face.
Back at the Fortress...
"We need to hurry!" Tails exclaimed. Vinny ran up beside then. Kai looked at the hedgehog in confusion.
"Where were you?" Kai asked. Tails nodded, whilst Vinny tried to think of an excuse, each feebler then the last.
"Ummmm...bathroom?" Vinny said. Kai shrugged and kept running. Tails thought about this for a second.
"How do you even know where...never mind." said Tails. Up ahead, robots were loitering in the hallway.
"Time to bust some heads!" Kai exclaimed. She jumped into the air, and spun into a circle. She spun rapidly and stuck her leg out. She swept kicked a large circle of robots.
"Tag Team Move!" Tails exclaimed, jumping next to Kai. He grabbed her by the hands, and started spinning her as hard as she could. She started spinning rapidly, yet never moving an inch from her starting point. She was spinning like a football, and Tails released her. She started flying right through the robots, spinning a giant hole in their chests.
"Vinny, why aren't you helping?" Tails asked. Vinny jumped up, and when he landed, he propelled Chaos energy into the ground. The power spread throughout the floor, and destroyed all of the robots. Vinny stood up, panting.
"All those training sessions still haven't paid off..." Vinny muttered, tired. Tails wasted no time in hurrying forward, Kai right behind him.
"Master, they are right near the cells. Drop the cage, and I'll terminate Gamma and Delta. I sense another presence coming. It may be the One." Vinny said to the screen. He pushed the screen back down, and watched as the cage fell down, trapping Kai and Tails.
Tikal was running as fast as she could, before coming to a fork in the base. She used her powers to find where Shadow was. She took the left path, and saw something unbelievable.
Shadow was embracing a fake her. Tikal ran in, yelling. Shadow turned around in time to see Tikal slap him.
"I leave to visit Amy for five minutes, and you're hugging another girl!" Tikal exclaimed. Shadow looked back at the Tikal he had been hugging, and spun it around. It was a robot version, and Shadow had been hugging it. Shadow felt like hurting himself for it.
"What's going on?" Kai asked, infuriated. Vinny walked up to her, grinning evilly.
"You still don't understand? I lead you all here, hacking Tails' computer. Although this is Flash's fortress, this is the prisoner cell. I helped lure you here. But I won't kill you." Vinny said. He gasped as an electric shot ran through his body.
"VINNY! Do what I say, or else they will die!" Flash ordered from a chip in Vinny's ear. Vinny fell down to his knee, groaning in pain.
"I'm doing this...because..." Vinny started, but he fell, unconscious. Kai and Tails looked at each other.
"Did you hear that? Flash is making him work for him. But what he threatened him with, and why he did it, still remain a mystery." Tails said. Kai nodded, and heard a scream.
"TIKAL!" Kai yelled.
On the other side of the building, Flash made his appearance. Shadow staggered back in surprise, whilst Jayln held her ground.
"FLASH!" Shadow exclaimed. Flash chuckled, and Jayln stood, ready to help in any way possible.
"Good to know my name's even known in the backwaters of the planet. But as we speak, my loyal servant shall be disposing of your friends." Flash said. A voice came from a chip in his ear.
"VINNY! Do what I say, or else they will die!" Flash roared, touching the chip with an electrified finger. Jayln and Shadow exchanged surprised glances. Tikal looked taken back.
"Vinny? The one who's life I saved...his your servant?" Tikal gasped, falling backwards. Flash nodded, grinning.
"And all because I threatened to kill his three good friends, Kai, Jayln, and Tails." Flash said. Jayln was enraged, and charged at Flash. She socked him in the chest, knocking the wind out of him. She then did a back flip, kicking Flash in the chin.
Kai had just tried her team move with Tails, but it didn't work. They were stuck in the cage. Vinny just started waking up.
"Kai...Tails...I promised I would join him, others wise he would kill both you and Jayln. You too, Tails. He also threatened to reveal my secret...one that will make you all betray me..." Vinny gasped. He inserted a card into the machine in the cage, and it slowly lifted.
"Go kill him...the one who..." Vinny said before fainting again.
Jayln was fighting Flash ferociously. After a few moments, Jayln grew tired, as she fell to the floor, panting.
"Is that honestly all you've got?" Flash asked, surprised. He charged a ball of electricity in his hand.
"FLASH OF HOPE!" Flash yelled, and threw it at Jayln. Jayln braced herself for impact, but it never came. When she opened her eyes, she saw Shadow standing in front of her, his arms crossed in front of his chest. He looked back at Jayln. and gave her a look of slight worry.
"You have apposed me. I didn't want to have to do this, but you leave me no choice." Flash said, and charged up his electrical power, preparing for his final attack.
"This can't be good." said Jayln.
Yeah, that's the end of Chapter Six. I have serious writer's block right now, and I can't think of anything. Can anyone give me any suggestions? Thanks, and please review! And Jayln, I'll do my best as to not have anymore of that stuff in. Later!
