Chapter 5
"I wouldn't be so cocky if I were you!" Knuckles shouted, "You might just loose your footing and fall from a cliff or building or something." "Are you so sure about that?" M-Sonic asked. In the meantime, Sonic and Shadow got ready for battle. The sole one Chaos Emerald that they had was needed to power them so they can get the others. The one Chaos Emerald did its powering motion and soon there was a force field around both Sonic and Shadow. "Oh so you got a Chaos Emerald also!" M-Sonic called. "Can't talk," Shadow said. "I'm to busy fighting!"
Shadow launched himself at M-Sonic. He immediately tried punch M-Sonic. Unfortunately, M-Sonic long ago saw it coming. He caught Shadow and kneed him into the air. It's impossible to fight M-Sonic while using one Emerald. Sonic thought. "Sonic!" Knuckles shouted from behind M-Sonic. How did he get behind M-Sonic without M-Sonic knowing! "Use these!" Knuckles threw the two remaining Chaos Emeralds that weren't being used by M-Sonic. "No!" M-Sonic screamed. Sonic caught the two Emeralds. Shadow finally got up from the ground. Seeing him, Sonic passed him one of the Chaos Emeralds. The Chaos Emeralds shone brightly ( Their colors were green and purple. The silver one was absorbed by M-Sonic and the yellow one was absorbed by Shadow and Sonic.) Soon, brighter force field surrounded Sonic and Shadow.
"It's show time!" Sonic whispered. Shadow launched himself at M-Sonic again. He suspected that M-Sonic would try the same counter attack. M-Sonic caught Shadow's fist again. But Shadow quickly kneed him in the stomach. That's for hitting me! M-Sonic was launched into the air. Sonic flew up (he was able to fly because he has the energy of Chaos Emeralds.) and accompanied him with a few jabs and kicks. Sonic finally kicked him back to the floor. M-Sonic was in a sort of knocked out state. (Remember he was a robot.) The silver Chaos Emerald appeared beside M-Sonic. Shadow quickly ran to it and snatched the fourth Chaos Emerald. Sonic and Shadow bolted away, Knuckles Amy and Tails went back into the Space Shuttle to land at Tails' workshop. (FYI Tails' workshop has a runway.)
Meanwhile Sonic and Shadow was running at high speed, the silver Chaos Emerald began to glow bright. Sonic and Shadow instantly stopped and looked to their left. A policeman was talking to a man who was holding a blue Chaos Emerald that was also glowing bright. Shadow and Sonic continued to watch. The police eventually pulled out a gun and held it at the man. Immediately Sonic and Shadow intervened. Sonic jumped and scissor kicked the blue Chaos Emerald out of the man's hand while Shadow kicked the gun out of the policeman's hand. They Sonic easily caught the dark blue Chaos Emerald, and Shadow caught the gun and put it back into the policeman's belt. Immediately, Sonic and Shadow ran away at amazing high speed.
Back at Tails' workshop, Sonic, Shadow, Tails, Amy and Knuckles all sat in the living room. What can I do to make Sonic love me! Amy thought hopelessly. She was getting more and more impatient about Sonic, her crush. All she needed was the 4 word question, or the 6 word question. (Will you marry me? And Will you go out with me?) "Five Emeralds are ours!" Sonic declared. "There are only 2 more Emeralds left to find!" Tails shouted. "I wonder where they are?" Knuckles wondered. "Maybe the government still has them." "Nope." Amy replied. "When we were on the ARK, the news said that M-Sonic stole the sole remaining Chaos Emerald." "Well then where are they!" Shadow shouted. Clearly, he was getting very inpatient, nobody could blame him. "We need to get them before Eggman does!" "Well, we can't go running all over the city." Sonic said. "The last two Chaos Emeralds could be locked up in a safe or buried, or underwater. Hold on a second! I was wondering if the Chaos Emeralds could be on the ARK." "That's not possible!" Tails replied. "It was confirmed that the Emeralds all fell back to Earth. In that case, it could be anywhere on the Earth." "The Chaos Emeralds are attracted to the Master Emerald." Knuckles spoke. "That's why the Emeralds all must have fallen back to Station Square." "Well, maybe the Emeralds can be tracked down by other Chaos Emeralds. You need to remember that Emeralds glow brighter as they get closer. Tails maybe you can put something inside your new plane, Tornado 3. Oh yah, by the way, maybe you should change your plane's name." "I already thought of one," Tails replied. "It's called Storming. And I know how I can make a tracking device. Knuckles, you need to find codes for the Master Emeralds energy. You can probably put a Chaos Emerald near it. Each energy has a unique code in it. A Chaos Emerald may be able to detect it. Sonic you need to make sure that each Chaos Emerald has the same energy code. I noticed that when a Chaos Emerald is near another, it portrays its energy code in faint writing that only can be seen under a microscope. I noticed it when I was studying it last year. Let's get to work. Oh yah, by the way, Shadow and Amy, you need to make sure that no one seen us. Keep a look out!"
Down at Eggman's base, M-Sonic walked into the laboratory room, where Eggman was working. "I have bad news!" M-Sonic began. "I lost all the Chaos Emeralds I had." "Please tell me you're lying!" Eggman screamed. He had all right to be angry. "No I'm not." M-Sonic replied, "They took the other two Emeralds and used their energy to beat me. We still have to find the red, blue and the light blue." (Yes! There are two blues.) "Don't worry about it much." Eggman said, "I have something that can help you find them and even help you destroy Sonic. Just look at what I'm creating."
