Sonic the Hedgehog The Beginning of the End

by Toadkarter

Eggman has been informed that a guardian stronger than Chaos is hidden within the Chaos and Super emeralds. With the help of a dark chao named Chemon and Team Dark, he hopes to call upon the guardian and rule the world. That is, if Sonic doesn't stop him.

Chapter 7 : The Story Begins, With Who's Gonna Win

Ancient Echidna Temple – Mystic Jungle

"Hmpt, I can't seem to find that inscription anywhere," Eggman scoffed, "Either that Chao lied to me, or I am not looking in the right place."

Eggman circled the inside of the temple in his hovercraft, looking for the inscription of Chaos and the other guardian that Chemon told him about.

"Nowhere, I can't find it," Eggman yelled dropping his laser, "BLAST! Now I have to go get that."

As the laser hit the ground, it landed on a button. The button triggered the walls to move in different patterns, allowing a large hallway to be seen.

"What's this," Eggman said looking at the hallway, "The inscription must be down there."

Eggman quickly zoomed down the hallway and sure enough, the giant inscription was there.

"It looks to be all Chaos, I see nothing about the other guardian," Eggman shouted looking at the inscription. Then he realized, that Chemon told him to look in the corner for the inscription.

"Ah, here it is," Eggman said in excitement, "Now, what does it say."

He looked over the inscription, trying to figure them out.

"According to this, both the Super Emeralds and The Chaos emeralds must be on one shrine. A shrine big enough to hold 14 emeralds, and 2 master emeralds. But where can one be found?" Eggman questioned, reading over the inscriptions, "well, this is good enough. At least we know what's needed to summon him. Now, I need to get out of here, before the walls close in."

He hurried down the hallway, to make sure he got out in time.

"Not so fast Eggman!"

"What the," Eggman shouted, "KNUCKLEHEAD!"

"Tell me Eggman, what are you doing inside this temple," Knuckles asked in a fierce tone.

"I don't have to tell you anything. All you need to know is, I successfully got what I came for, and you're not going to get in my way!" Eggman shouted blasting his laser at Knuckles. It hit.

"Ahh," Knuckles shouted flying through the air.

"I hate to leave, but, well actually, I'd love to leave," Eggman laughed, "See you later Knucklehead."

Eggman floated right out the exit, not even paying a second glance towards the in pain Knuckles.

As Eggman left, Tocky stumbled in. He quickly ran towards Knuckles, and tapped his arm. Knuckles didn't get up. Tocky knew Knuckles was in pain, but he wasn't sure what to do. He try to wake Knuckles up, but it didn't work. He panicked. Then, he ran out of the temple. He quickly realized that Big's house was not far from there. He knew Big would help Knuckles. He ran as fast as he flippers would let him towards Big's house.

He arrived shortly after departing, but Big wasn't there. Tocky had no idea what to do, until he saw a note on Big's mailbox.

"Went Fishin' at Emerald Beach," The note read, "Be back in uh..sometime."

Tocky quickly sped off down the path to try to find his way towards the beach. He didn't have much time. The Temple was going to close, and only Knuckles and Eggman knew the way in. Atleast, as far as Tocky knew.
