Chapter 33 : Rough Landings

Eggbase – Off the coast of Angel Island

"WAH!" Vector screamed landing head first in a pile of dirt, "Oh great, I lost 'em"

"AHH!" The other four shouted, landing on top of Vector.

"Ouch, thanks a lot guys."

"Sorry Vector, we can't decide where we land," Tails apologized.

"Yeah, but even we could, I'd choose to land on you," Knuckles smirked. Tocky cocked a smile at Knuckles joke.

"Guys, look!" Sonic exclaimed. The four turned their heads to see Eggman's ground base.

"The Eggbase!" Tails said, "We can probably find something in there to get us to Zabolick!"

"Yeah, then we can finally bring down that Egghead!" Knuckles shouted in joy.

"Well then, let's get goin'" Vector ran ahead of them into the base. As the five entered, they noticed all kinds of destroyed machines, robots and walls of the base.

"What happened?" Tails asked.

"Who cares, let's just find something and get out of here," Knuckles grunted.

"I think I found something," Sonic said from a distance. The four caught up to him and saw him standing next to a huge spaceship.

"That looks a smaller version of one of the ships in his Egg Fleet," Tails said examining it.

"Huh?" Vector asked in a very confused voice.

"Oh, an old battle with Eggman we went through."

"Well, let's get it," Knuckles said as he and Tocky jumped in. Sonic, Tails and Vector jumped in after.

"Buckle up!" Tails shouted strapping in at the pilots chair. He then pressed a few buttons and the engines turned on with a huge burst of sound, "Listen to those babies purr."

"Tails, you're starting to scare me," Knuckles laughed.

"You're a jerk sometimes, ya know that?"

"I try."

"Can we get going, please?" Vector yelled.

"Alright, I'm going," Tails replied and the ship took off into deep space.
