Chapter 27: Building a Base
Sacred Emerald Shrine – Zabolick
"Blah, how rough," Shadow said climbing out of the crashed Egg Flyer. They landed on a dark, blue, desolated planet.
"The shrine is this way," Chemon yelled running ahead of them all. They all ran to a giant shrine. It was a light gray and made of stone. It had 14 large pillars sticking out of the sides, and two great pillars right in the middle.
"It's amazing," Rouge gawked.
"This is perfect," Eggman laughed, "But before we put the emeralds, we must build a base!"
"How?" Omega asked.
"Simple, there are many tools and materials in the Egg Flyer to use. Plus we're in space, we can steal materials from a space center if we need to," Eggman smirked, "Rouge, Chemon and I will take the Egg Flyer and take any materials we may need from nearby space centers. You four will stay here and work with what I leave you. Zero should probably stand guard incase Sonic and his friends find a way to get up here. Now, move out."
Dr. Eggman, Rouge and Chemon got into what was left of the Egg Flyer. Eggman tossed a bunch of tool and materials out of it towards the four left on the planet.
"Hmpt, I'm stuck with you again," Shadow complained pointing at Nack.
"Heh, atleast we's gots the robots wit us," Nack said crossing his arms.
"Whatever."
"Must build protective structure," Omega said picking up the tools.
"Yeah, we should get to werk," Nack said walking with Omega.
"Lousy partners I have," Shadow said under his breath picking up the materials, "Stay here and keep watch, Zero."
"Affirmative," Zero replied. Shadow walked away towards the shrine and began to work.
"Good luck wit dat," Nack laughed, laying down with his hat covering his eyes.
"Shouldn't you be helping?" Shadow asked.
"Meh, I dun need to," Nack yawned.
"Yes you do."
"No I don't"
"Yes you do."
"No I don't"
"YES YOU DO!" Shadow yelled pointing his gun at Nack.
"You tink I'm scared?"
"You better be," Shadow glared putting his finger on the trigger.
"Shadow, we must make the protective structure," Omega said trying to stop Shadow.
"No, get out of the way Omega!"
"You cannot harm a partner," Omega said putting his arm in Shadow's way.
Shadow pushed it out of the way, "NO! I'm tired of this little snob!"
"Shadow, I'm not afraid of ya," Nack laughed.
"You will be," Shadow shouted pulling the trigger.
"NO!" Omega shouted. Shadow just panted angerly.
Nack quickly held up his glove and blocked the bullet with the steel found on it, "Wimp." Nack pulled his pistol out of his holster and fired at Shadow. The bullet hit him right in the left shoulder.
"Ahhh," Shadow screamed in pain flying backwards.
"SHADOW!" Omega shouted. He put his robotic hand on Shadow's cold, unconscious body, "New enemy recorded. Nack the Weasel." Omega rushed straight towards Nack. His robotic fingers turned into high-tech machine guns.
"He was askin fer it," Nack said devilishly.
"He was my friend, you are now my enemy," Omega said stopping and firing bullets straight at Nack. Nack jumped out of the way.
"I'd love ta stay and talk, but, I's gots better thangs to do," Nack said jumping into the air. Out of nowhere, a purple hovercraft came straight under Nack. He landed in it and hovered away.
Omega walked over to Shadow, and sat next to him, "I have failed you."
