Disclaimer: Metal Amy belongs to me, also Snipe is mine. Celestial the Hedgird owns Yang and Lamont-the-ultimate owns Lamont. Oh, everyone else is belonged by Sega and Sonic Team, but lets face it, there not important.
Author note: Another year, another chapter. This one seemed to take awhile, but I had a bit of writers block, which is odd because I already know everything which will happen in this chapter. Oh well, enjoy.
"Let us finally finish MS4!" Super Eggman exclaimed.
"Master, would it not be wise to do something with these two." Super Metal Knuckles gestured at Metal Sonic and Metal Amy.
Metal Amy started to move. She looked around. She scanned everyone in the room. She recognised a large human as 'Eggman', the person she was meant to see as soon as being activated. She began to walk towards him, but noticed she was holding something, concealed in her hand. She curiously opened up her palm and looked within.
"Do not concern yourself with them now, they are as harmless as kittens." Super Eggman claimed. Super Metal Knuckles was not convinced.
"Kittens still scratch." Metal Knuckles replied. Eggman laughed at the response.
"Did I design you to question everything? Look, we're in super forms, there is nothing they can do to us anyway"
Metal Amy was holding a torn of piece of the metal wall. She quickly looked around and noticed it had come from one of the prison cells. She looked at the piece again. Something was scratched into it, letters, words. She read the message. It said 'download the 'SA.zip' file from Metal Knuckles.
"When will we finish the Final Death Egg then?" Asked Super Metal Knuckles.
"It is finished, were just an emerald short." Super Metal Knuckles folded his arms.
"Then where is this emerald?" He asked. Super Eggman shrugged. Super Metal punched a near by monitor in frustration.
"Well, lets go find it, we only have an entire globe to search!" Super Metal Knuckles sarcastically suggested.
"Calm yourself. I had the fore thought to install a emerald tracker in MS4." Super Eggman smiled at how prepare he was.
"Erm, master?" Super Metal Knuckles and Super Eggman turned to Metal Amy. "May I ask of something from you"
"Ask away." Super Eggman sounded slightly suspicious.
"Will you shut up!" Super Metal Sonic knocked Super Eggman onto the ground. Before Super Metal Knuckles had realised it, Super Metal Sonic grabbed Super Metal Knuckles by both his shoulders. "I looked up those disks Eggman made for you. I noticed a flaw." Super Metal Sonic jabbed Super Metal Knuckles in the shoulders with his pointy fingers. "The, what egg-head dubbed, 'anti-energy' is stupidly unstable." Super Metal Knuckles shoved Super Metal Sonic off him and checked his shoulders. Super Metal Sonic had punctured both of the discs. Almost as soon as he noticed them, the discs let out all there 'anti-energy' (which I personally think is the stupidest name I have given anything). An invisible blast not unlike a sound wave knocked everyone over. As Super Eggman, Super Metal Knuckles and Super Metal Sonic fell to floor, they all returned to there normal selves.
"What the?" Grumbled Metal Knuckles.
"I personally prefer fighting this way." Metal Sonic claimed, shakily getting to his feet.
"I erased all your data! You should have returned to being a loyal servant!" Eggman shouted.
"I backed up my data. I stored it all on Metal Knuckles." He turned to Metal Knuckles.
"Thanks brother"
"What? Why didn't I notice it!" Metal Knuckles asked angrily.
"While it installed I distracted you, then it just waited in a file hidden in your 'recycle bin', you have to clean that more often, I found racing files still in there!" Metal Sonic chuckled. "Oh, I did the same with Metal Amy's files." Eggman had a look of disbelief on his face. "Almost ironically, if Eggman hadn't given us such fast systems, I probably wouldn't have had enough time to install the files and destroy his plans"
"You talk to much!" Metal Knuckles shouted and ran at Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic waited for Metal Knuckles to get close, and took a swing at him. Metal Knuckles was floored by the punch.
"Before I leave, I am going to kill you." Metal Sonic announced, before slamming his foot into Metal Knuckles head.
"Robots! To cell room!" Eggman shouted. Within seconds hundreds of Eggman robots began swarming into the room. Metal Sonic ignored his pray to destroy the new pests. Metal Sonic torched a few with his flamethrower while firing a missile at a monkey like robot. Distracted by Eggman's minions, Metal Sonic failed to notice Metal Knuckles rise behind him.
"Watch out!" Metal Amy called out, just in time for Metal Sonic to turn and block Metal Knuckles punch. Metal Sonic pushed Metal Knuckles back into the other robots. He then grabbed a near by robot and chucked it at Metal Knuckles. Metal Knuckles destroyed the robot with a punch.
"Try this out for size." He mumbled. He fired the spikes of his left hand, which were actually concealed missiles, at Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic jumped the first one, the missile hit the ground and let out a large explosion, which knocked Metal Sonic into the second missile. The two missiles not only hurt Metal Sonic, but destroyed a great deal of the robots. The robots decided to form a circle around the two fighters, taking shots at Metal Sonic occasionally. Metal Knuckles ran at Metal Sonic's body and hit him a few times before he hit the ground. Metal Sonic got up and looked at his enemy. Both the fighters had only managed to badly scratch each others paintwork. Metal Sonic ran at Metal Knuckles, fist rose. No one betrays him and keeps there life.
Yang looked away from his computer to look at the stampede of robots outside the room. He could see that Lamont hadn't managed to get far before the avalanche of machinery.
"Hay, failed Shadow, what the heck is going on?" Yang asked. Lamont shrugged. Yang angrily got out of his seat and walked to the doorway. "Well, wherever there going must be interesting. I'm following." Claimed Yang.
"Well I'm not staying here alone." Lamont announced. The two black hedgehogs entered the mess of robots and headed towards the cell room.
Metal Knuckles dodged Metal Sonic's fist at the last possible second, sending Metal Sonic running into the ring of robots. Two of the robots attempted to hold Metal Sonic down for Metal Knuckles, but Metal Sonic destroyed them with ease. The distraction was enough for Metal Knuckles to get a shot in. He knocked Metal Sonic across the face. Metal Sonic's head span to the left, sending his body with it. Metal Sonic regained his balance and kicked Metal Knuckles over. Metal Knuckles fell on his back. Before he could even lift his head, he felt Metal Sonic's foot on his throat.
"I am ending this brother. Good...ah!" Before Metal Sonic could finish he was knocked over by a black blur. Yang came to a halt in the middle of the circle of jeering robots. The hedgehog ignored the robots cries and walked calmly up to Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic tried to attack Yang as he got up, but Yang dodged the attack and floored Metal Sonic. "This battle is none of your concern hedgehog!" Metal Sonic claimed in a threatening voice.
"I don't care." Yang replied. He began firing beams out of his hand at Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic jumped to his feet, barley missing one of the shots, and fired his missiles at Yang. Yang tried to destroy the missiles with his beams, but one got through and blew up in his face. Yang shook of the shock off, but not fast enough to miss a metallic fist. Metal Sonic threw another punch at Yang, but Metal Knuckles intercepted it. Lamont came from behind and grabbed Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic threw Lamont off, but got punched by both Yang and Metal Knuckles simultaneously. Metal Sonic threw straight out of the ring, next to Metal Amy, who had been watching silently.
"Metal Sonic! Forget your pride and lets go!" Metal Amy shouted, a touch of pleading was in her voice. Metal Sonic nodded and stood. Metal Knuckles and the two black hedgehogs pushed past Eggman's robots towards Metal Sonic.
"Well, we will say the match was called because of audience interference, but in the end, I was truly the victor." Metal Sonic turned away from his nemeses.
"How do you figure that?" Shouted Metal Knuckles, nearly upon Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic didn't answer directly.
"Chaos control!" Metal Knuckles fist barley missed Metal Sonic as he disappeared.
"He has the emeralds." Yang simply exclaimed.
Prisal (aka, Gerald) watched Sonic infiltrating the G.U.N base with his allies. Prisal turned his attention away from the monitor to a different one, which showed the white room next to his room.
"You're in luck assassin, your next target has come to us." Prisal told his hired hand.
"Well I should hope so, I came out of retirement for you, the least you could do is deliver the prey to me." Snipe complained.
"You came out of retirement because the price was right." Prisal corrected Snipe, who muttered under his breath. "Now, we only need the fox's DNA, got it?" Snipe, who was getting annoyed by Prisal, simply nodded.
Snipe had been reminded by the strange things he had seen in Prisal's office by his son Nack and his 'friends' a while back (chapter 3). It also reminded him of the adrenaline rush and excitement he had experienced in his work. He lulled around in his house for a while afterwards, mostly engrossed in trying to figure out what he had actually seen in the G.U.N base. It was shortly after he heard news that G.U.N were looking for someone to 'finish a job', Snipe decided to come out of retirement and take the job, hoping to understand what was going on in G.U.N better, as well as satisfy regrets he had about retiring. Snipe was reminded why he had retired after the search he had to go through to find Mighty, as well as the difficulty he had getting the DNA. The armadillo had some how snuck up on Snipe and beat Snipe senseless. Purely by chance had Snipe got any blood sample before fleeing. The syringe had fallen out of his hand and landed on the floor. Mighty accidentally stepped on the syringe, so Snipe jumped at the chance, getting as much blood into the syringe as possible and running away as fast as his legs could take him, which wasn't very fast, but Mighty didn't bother chasing as he believed he had scared off the assassin. The short skirmish had got Snipe even more annoyed than normal. He hadn't got any info about the tape either.
Sonic ran ahead of the group, taking out any soldier who came in his way. Tails followed closely behind, lending a hand whenever possible. Knuckles, Rouge and Omega took up the rear, Omega keeping any soldiers from sneaking up behind. Nack stayed in the middle, making sure not to get involved in any way. Sonic laughed as he knocked another soldier onto the floor.
"This is almost too easy! What kind of high security military base is this?" Sonic tripped another soldier up.
"Don't get too cocky Sonic!" Tails warned Sonic, who paid no attention. The group of fighters, and Nack, continued forwards, occasionally stopping to get directions from Omega. They were about half way to the holding area when a shot rang out and Tails fell to the floor. Sonic immediately ran over to his fallen friend.
"Tails!" Sonic checked Tails. "He's been shot!" Sonic looked up at the rest of the group, he noticed Knuckles wasn't with them. There was a loud thump from the ceiling and an old brown weasel fell down, followed by Knuckles.
"Dad? What you doing going around shooting my... people who I'm hanging around with in hopes of getting an emerald?" Nack questioned Snipe. Snipe quickly picked himself off the floor and dusted himself off.
"Well I was planning on silently getting a blood sample for G.U.N, but you young hooligans have ruined that for me! Can't an old man do a job anymore without being hassled?" Complained Snipe. Nack sighed and shook his head.
"I think you've had a bit to much excitement farther, let me just take you home..." Snipe whacked Nack across the face.
"Don't patronise me!" Snipe snapped. Nack, slightly surprised by his father's strength, backed up a bit.
"Look old man, leave my friend and the rest of us alone, and you might leave with all your limbs intact." Sonic threatened.
"You think you can take me? I'll whip your behind so badly you won't sit for weeks!" Snipe retaliated. Nack quickly put himself in the way of the two.
"Hay, look, Dad, you're to old for this, and Sonic, are you really going to beat up an old man? Not very heroic!" Nack realised his negotiation skills were no good when Snipe hit him again.
"Stop calling me old you ungrateful kid! No get out of my way!" Snipe tried to push pass Sonic to get to Tails, but Knuckles grew bored of watching and grabbed Snipe by the scruff of the neck.
"Why are you doing Fistika's job!" Knuckles demanded an answer. Snipe scowled, annoyed by the constant questions. The old weasel took a grenade from his belt and held it up so everyone could see it. The pulled the pin and dropped it to the floor. Everyone, apart from Snipe, Nack and Tails (who was still on the floor) jumped for cover. Snipe used the distraction to swipe out a syringe, run up to Tails, take his blood sample and run away. Nack looked over at his hiding allies.
"It's a fake you idiots." Nack claimed. The animals, and robot, quickly returned to there original positions.
"Drat, what are they doing?" Knuckles angrily questioned, not expecting an answer.
Prisal laughed to himself as he watched the encounter on his monitor.
"Finally! The Ultimate Weapon shall be finished!"
