Video Game Village

Disclaimer: I still don't own anything but the storyline. Yes. The storyline IS mine. So there.
In this chapter, the stranger finally confronts Spot and their somewhat odd relationship is revealed in the first of hopefully many action/ adventure genre chapters. I'll bet that I've made one or two of the people who read this pull there hair out. If so, then I have some advice for them: Get a life you bums! And now, chapter fourteen!
Chapter XIV
Post Nuclear
Junior got a standing ovation when he finishing playing his song. Lucy, who was about his height and wore a pink skirt with pigtails, came up and kissed him on the cheek. Junior immediately blushed a bright crimson as Pac-Man looked at Spot. "I take it that this was your little project." Spot nodded and Pac-Man smirked. Sonic handed Spot a hammer and mumbled a few words to Spot. He nodded, turned around, and left. Pac-Man raised an eyebrow and Sonic explained that he'd asked Spot to put up a 'Welcome to Video Game Village' sign at the main gate.
Speaking of which, the stranger just walked away from the main gate as Spot walked up to it. He walked through the gate, posted the sign, made sure it was even, and headed back to the Pac-Man residence. Unfortunately, everyone there had gotten back to work just as the stranger walked into sight.
"Hey, Spot! Good news! We're almost…"
By the time the Pac-Man realized it wasn't Spot he was talking to, he raised an eyebrow. "Hey, Spot. What's with the new look?" The stranger glanced at him, then he continued forward. "Thank you. You've helped me a great deal." Pac-Man and several other people stared as the stranger turned the corner.
Back in the bad side of town, the baddies (or what was left of them) were planning a desperation move. "I've got an idea." All eyes turned to Greedy. "We sneak into the good side of town…" Everyone nodded. "Get within range of the good guys…" Everyone nodded again. "And we run like living hell, trying to do as much damage as we can before we get sent back here!" Everyone (save Greedy) anime-dropped. Ripto sighed. "It's better than nothing." Greedy beamed while Sera held up a beam and beamed Greedy upside the head. "What was that for?" Sera pointed to the recently-reactivated Juno. "We get enough smiling from him."
Spot finally reached the future spot for his new house. "Hey guys." Everyone stopped to look at Spot. "What happened to your old look?" Spot raised an eyebrow. "Huh?" Pac-Man pointed at the corner where the stranger had turned. "You know… That silvery look…" Spot suddenly tensed up. "Silvery? He didn't look like me did he?" Everyone glanced at everyone else. "Um, yeah."
Spot immediately changed to frenzy mode. "OH CRAP! SON OF A… HE CAN'T BE HERE! HE JUST… I'VE GOT TO GO! I'VE GOT TO GET OUTTA HERE! I'VE GOT TO…" Some chuckling came from behind Spot and he immediately froze. "You've just got to find better hiding places." Spot slowly turned around to face the stranger, the last person he wanted to see before he died. "Guys… Allow me to have the unfortunate pleasure of introducing my worst nightmare…" Everyone gasped when they saw the stranger, especially since he was smiling in a most evil way. Spot gulped. "Metal Spot…"
(A.N. Dun duh duh! The truth is revealed! In case you don't know who Metal Spot is, he's the guy that you can't kill in the Post Nuclear level of Spot Goes To Hollywood.)

(Remixes)
None, that I know of…
Metal Spot chuckled again. "I searched high and low for you, Spot. I admit, it was one of the best times I've had." Spot slowly began inching his way to his left and Metal Spot noticed this. "Hold it!" In a flash of light, a bazooka appeared in his hand and Spot tensed up again as Metal Spot aimed the weapon at his head. "You didn't forget my little friend, did you?"
Spot raised his arms. "Okay. I don't know why you want to kill me, but I hope it has nothing to do with Spot Goes To Hollywood." Metal Spot narrowed his eyes. "Don't worry. It doesn't." Spot lowered his arms slightly as his friends formed a crowd behind him. "Really?" Metal Spot lowered the weapon slightly. "Yeah. It had EVERYTHING to do with it!"
Spot jumped at this outburst, as did everyone behind him. "It's because of you that I got the part that I did!" Spot looked weakly at Metal Spot. "I didn't…" Metal Spot cut him off. "YES YOU DID!" Spot jumped back and Metal Spot began backing up a few steps. "You ruined my life and I'll be certain to end yours!" Spot opened his eyes slowly. "I really hope that that was a slip of the tongue." Metal Spot snarled. "Consider my patience tested! The time to die is now, Spot!"
(Spot Goes To Hollywood (Sega Genesis) - Post Nuclear restarts)
Spot slowly began making his way to his left as Metal Spot kept the bazooka aimed at him. "You can't escape it. Just hold still and accept your fate!" Spot smirked weakly. "I'd prefer that I didn't hold still." Metal Spot's eyes narrowed and he soon regained the evil smirk. "Have it your way. More fun for me." Metal Spot's bazooka began glowing on the inside and Spot started. He turned and began running like Death was on his heels.
Metal Spot turned the weapon and, firing three at a time, shot fifteen rockets hurtling after him. "Poop on a stick!" Spot swerved around each of the explosions and he managed to jump into the bush. "Ha! You've become mighty desperate if you ask me." Metal Spot fired another rocket, blowing the bushes to pieces. The crowd watching this gasped and a few people shouted. "Spot!"

Back in the bad side of town, Warhead was doodling on that paper of his again. He finally picked up the overhead and put the paper on it. This is what it looked like now:
Eggman - Possibly Dead
Warhead - Alive
Greedy - Conscious
Venom - Who Knows? Who Cares?
Reapermon - Alive or Dead, either or…
Omega X - Alive
Juno - Dead, I Think…
Sera - Alive
Mr. X - Doing Just Fine
Ripto - Alive For God Knows What Reason
Mr. X was about to say something when Eggman fell through the roof. He was still alive, but he was wearing a kilt, a sombrero, and his mustache had a little flame at one end. Mr. X chuckled at this. "Talk about 'Around The World in 80 Days'." Warhead nudged Mr. X's arm. "More like 'Around The World in 80 Minutes'." The two began whooping it up as Eggman doused his flaming mustache. "Har har." Greedy regained consciousness, only to be beamed in the head with the beam by Sera again. "I did that 'cause I felt like it."

The bush was nothing more than smoldering ash now. Pac-Man stared in horror as the robotic counterpart for one of his most-deared friends approached it. "Thus ends the legacy of…" He paused when the noise from someone revving a motorcycle was heard. "What in the…" Spot, now riding a not-very-detailed motorcycle, burst from the burst, bounced off of Metal Spot's head, and skidded to a stop not-too-far away.
Metal Spot spun around and looked at the machine with disgust. Spot still looked panicked, just not as much as before. 'Fine! If it's a fight you want…" He revved the handlebars. "Then it's one you'll get!" Metal Spot smirked. "So eager to die, are we? Well, I'm fine with that. Take this!" Metal Spot made the motion of firing a rocket from the bazooka he had once held in his hand. When he realized he wasn't holding it anymore, Metalman began whistling as everyone saw the weapon hiding behind his back.
Metal Spot snarled. "Give me the weapon or I'll make you forever regret it!" Metalman scoffed. "Yeah right. But, if you insist…" Metalman threw the weapon into the air and Spot just managed to catch it. "His metallic counterpart glared at him. "You know what I can do to you… Now, give me…" Spot managed to shoot a burst of energy from the bazooka and it cut Metal Spot off as it hit his face.
Spot started, then turned the motorcycle around. "I'm outta here." Spot drove away, leaving behind a baffled group. As Metal Spot jumped, something clicked and he began hovering in midair. "This isn't over yet!" He took off after Spot and Sonic, Crashman, and Pac-Man all took a few steps forward. "We can't let Spot do this alone! Come on!"
Vectorman took off into the air, carrying Crashman on his back, Sonic took off at sonic-speed, and everyone else began running after them. Meanwhile, Spot was currently shooting at Metal Spot, who was dodging each shot. Metal Spot reached up and removed his triangular sunglasses, revealing two large, glowing red orbs that some would call eyeballs. Metal Spot then threw the glasses like a Frisbee and Spot just barely managed to dodge it. Good thing too, because it sliced through a tree like a knife through fuck butter.
(A.N. Don't ask… It's my friend's idea.)
Spot tensed up and dodged the sunglasses as they looped around like a boomerang. Metal Spot caught them and was about to hurl them at Spot again when he got a decent dosage of Crash Bomb. He turned around and saw Vectorman and Crashman. They both started when they saw those glowing red eyes. However, seeing as Metal Spot wasn't watching where he was going, he flew straight into a tree. Vectorman and Crashman managed to stop and another Crash Bomb was fired.
Two Silver Tomahawks and Metal Blades were also fired as the Robot Masters managed to catch up, followed by everyone else. Metal Spot roared and took off after Spot again. This time, no one moved because as Metal Spot disappeared in the distance, Spot rolled his motorcycle out of the bushes. Pac-Man was the first to ask. "How did you…" Vectorman just stood there, beaming. Pac-Man turned his head. "And where'd you get this?" Spot patted the motorcycle. "This has been my most prized possession since when I first met this psychopath.
(A.N. In case you haven't pieced it together yet, the motorcycle is the one Spot has to fight the fourth world boss in. First, you go through the Virtual World level. Then, you have to fight the boss. It's actually quite fun, I recommend that you try it.)
"Psychopath, eh? Sounds fun." Everyone started and looked up at Metal Spot. He narrowed his eyes. "I pieced it together when you drove through a wall." Spot formed an O with his lips and quickly hopped on his motorcycle. Metal Spot threw the sunglasses again and Spot shot a few rockets back at him.
Everyone shot their attacks at him as Spot took off. Sephiroth even managed a few slashes from the sword which he'd bamboozled from Shadow. Metal Spot was starting to look like a dented tin can and he didn't care. He took off after Spot again, only to be shot down by another Crash Bomb. He continued moving forward, but he was descending as well. The crowd chased after him and they soon caught up with Spot.
Metal Spot crashed in the middle of town square and the crowd stopped, as did Spot. He looked at the bazooka he'd swindled from Metal Spot. He smirked when a thought came to his head. I could get used to this… Everyone slowly advanced on the limp form of the psycho and they were about to risk another step when…
"CHARGE!"
Everyone turned and saw the final bosses running towards them. No armor. No robots. No weapons. Nothing. They were running towards them in a frenzied dash. However, when they saw Metal Spot's limp form, they stopped. "Who's that?" As if to answer Warhead's question, Metal Spot stirred and stood up with some difficulty. "You… Won't survive… this… You'll… pay for… ruining my life!" Spot shrugged. "See? Psychopath."
Metal Spot growled and caught a glimpse of the confused final bosses. "You will do nicely." Metal Spot lifted off of the ground and began glowing white. Warhead, Greedy, and Eggman looked up at this until Warhead noticed something and asked, "Um… Guys… Why are we glowing?" The three realized the answer just as the glow began blinding.
"Oh crap…"
"Oh wonderful…"
"Oh turd biscuits!"
In a white flash, the three final bosses disappeared and, when people could see again, they were met with the most unusual of spectacles. Metal Spot was still floating in the air, however, the arms of Warhead, Greedy, and Eggman's weapons from the Egg Emperor (Sonic Heroes) protruded from his back. They were squirming through the air like maggots in… well… anything.
Spot just stared at this. "Well… This is new…" Metal Spot began laughing maniacally and mechanically. "Fool! You have no idea of my power! And now, Cool Spot… Now I shall show you the true meaning of ABSOLUTE POWER!"
Well……… This is turning out to be interesting, eh? In the next chapter, Spot and the others deal with Metal Spot's new and improved form and at the end of that chapter, Metal Spot will do something that devastates both the good and bad sides of town. Tune in next time when times began to become Another Prelude For Disaster.
Metal Sonic EX: I forgot to mention this earlier: HALLELUJAH! I finally found a way to post my fanfic chapters! But, by the time that I post this chapter, you should already know that. Anyways, Read and Review so that I would be forced to do something cruel and inhumane to you!
