Disclaimer: I do not own Sonic the Hedgehog, Ristar, Vectorman, or anything that pertains to any of their worlds. I haven't said this in a while, but I don't own any of the music mentioned and/or used in this fanfic. If I did, I'd be busy right now writing out autographs that people will later burn for no reason. However, in reality, I do not. Reality sucks. So don't sue me.

In this chapter, Warhead is finally revived, the two 'brats' finally arrive and Greedy gets a big surprise. Enjoy!

Scene Six

Here Comes The Cavalry!

Five minutes later, Greedy was asleep and snoring so loud, that Eggman started mumbling insults. Knuckles and Shadow were busy devising a plan of escape. "How do we get the emerald away from shorty over there?" Shadow shrugged. "I don't know how, but I do know that if you can get me to that emerald, I can get you guys outta here." Knuckles raised an eyebrow. "What about you?" Shadow motioned his head towards Uranium. "I still have some unfinished business." Greedy made a weird noise and rolled over, letting his cape drape over the front of the chair.

The two evil geniuses stopped working and rose. "Finished!" Greedy woke with a start and fell of his throne. "Wha… What?" Inonsis chuckled. "We're done." Greedy rose and tried to look sophisticated. "Oh, well. That's good. Hey, you two. No conversing. I still don't trust you." Shadow and Knuckles looked at the space tyrant. "Your trust is one I'd prefer not to have." Inonsis glanced at his monitor and jumped. "Sir! They're closing in on Freon now!" Greedy simply looked at the window and saw the ship fly by Sonata. "Let me guess. Another mechanical interference." Inonsis nodded. "Can't you stop them?" Inonsis shook his head. "I've already tried. The cause of these interference has to be more advanced than any of our technologies. Almost like…" Inonsis was cut off. "Almost like my planet's?"

Everybody turned around and faced the recently activated orbot struggle to get up, his cautious eyes glancing everywhere. "Inonsis, did you…" Inonsis shook his head again. "No. I didn't activate him." Greedy looked at Eggman, but he too shook his head. "I did it myself because you're all too lazy to do it yourselves." He finally managed to push himself up and balance on his upper torso. He looked down, then he looked at Greedy. "And, obviously, you're also too lazy to add legs." Greedy pointed out the window. "That's the reason for the interruption of the reconstruction of your body." Warhead looked and instantly recognized the ship. "The android…" Warhead looked at the bad guys and laughed. "So, he did survive the explosion." Greedy nodded and continued. "Yes, however, the planet did not." Warhead seemed surprised. "Really now. Well, that's news to…"

Warhead finally noticed the captives staring at him. "Mobians. I've never gotten the pleasure to meet you. Though, I should tell you that you were a great part of Earth legends. A planet similar to Earth, yet not Earth." Greedy interrupted. "I think that it's time for you to depart." Warhead looked at Greedy. "I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to wait for that android and I'm going to pop his head off." Warhead made a squeezing motion with his three-fingered hands.

Greedy shook his head. "I figure that you'll get a better advantage on Mobius." Warhead put a huge finger in Greedy's face. "I SAID, I'M GOING TO…" Warhead paused, thinking this over. "Okay, I'll go along with your stupid plan. Just one question, how am I going to get there?" Eggman walked over to the elevator. "Follow me and I shall show you how." Warhead shook his head. "Whatever." He waited until the elevator hit the basement, then he jumped down the shaft, his landing shaking the whole space city.

(A.N. Please forgive if I get a few things wrong. If you're wondering what I'm talking about, I mean that I'm going to try a different perspective view. So, please, don't flame me if I get stuff wrong)

(Greedy's POV)

"Well, now. Where are the brats now?" I looked and saw them passing Planet Automaton. Oh, for the love of… They are seriously becoming a nuisance… I turned, saw the echidna and black hedgehog conversing again, and called out to them. "How many times do I have to say this? No conversing!" They are also becoming a nuisance. I'd love to finish them off here. But, that's not part of the plan… I sighed and began making my way back to make my way to my chair. Now that I think about it, my chair looks oddly like a throne. He he. How fitting. I sat down and looked at the Mobians. Those two were glaring at me. Nothing unusual about that. I turned and looked out the window. SOMETHING VERY UNUSUAL ABOUT THAT! WHAT IN THE…

(Normal POV)

Greedy sat up suddenly and fell to the ground again. "INONSIS!" Inonsis looked over to Greedy and started. Outside the window, the ship was within yards of the space city and it didn't look like it's driver planned on stopping anytime soon. "DUCK!" The ship hit the window, went flying above everyone's head, and continued on through the wall. The thing was, nothing was broken. "Inonsis, was that a hologram?" Inonsis kept exchanging glances between the wall and the window. "It sure looked like one. Wait! Look! No one's there!"

(Greedy's POV)

I looked and started. My god! He's right! For once…I couldn't see them anywhere. Wait! There! Is that… Wait, no it isn't. I noticed a ship in the distance getting smaller. It was probably Eggman's ship. "Inonsis, where are they?" Inonsis looked at his monitor and squeaked. "They're here! As in, they're in the space city!" WHAT! "Prepare every weapon we have! When they get close enough, blow them to pieces!" Then, I heard the brat's voice. "Guys, are you up there?" The squirrel or chipmunk thing called back. "We're here Sonic!" I've just about had it with them… "Shut up! All of you!" Then, I heard the other brat's voice. "Well, well. So, ol' caped and ugly returns. How ya been?"

(Normal POV)

Sonic and his old friend, Ristar, were downstairs all right. That was confirmed when Awaueck and Itamor came flying up the hole and landed by Greedy's chair. "This is not the time to be lying around! Get ready!" They pulled themselves up and walked over to the hole. Awaueck looked up and flew to a rafter above Greedy's head. On Inonsis' monitor, two blips began moving up the shaft, leaving the elevator behind. "Ready." They got closer, making Inonsis, Uranium, and Itamor get ready to fire their attacks. The Magnum Worm was charging a particle cannon, Itamor was ready to throw a few of his ice bombs, which he also ate, at the hole, and Uranium was hunched over, charging his built-in particle cannon. "Set." They got closer and then… "FIRE!"

Everyone released their attacks in a barrage of light. "Sonic!" Mina called out and Kneecaps awoke, but didn't cry. When the smoke cleared, Greedy chuckled. "Well. That's a load off of my…" He then noticed a hole in the side of the shaft. "What the…" A small, turquoise head popped out of the hole. "He he. Surprise." Greedy eyes bulged from his skull. "ADAHAN!" The stranger then flew out of the hole and hovered above Greedy's head. He was a medium-sized, armadillo-like creature. His hands had two claws on each one, and a jet pack bulged from his back. "Don't pull that stuff with me. You're the who got me to work for you! And you know what? I got grounded for about three years because of it!"

(A.N. When you beat Ristar, the first part of the credits show a picture of the boss fight and a picture of what came afterwards. This goes up to Planet Automaton. For Planet Scorch, It shows Ristar and Adahan falling down a shaft. The second picture shows a small, orange armadillo, about Ristar's size, being punished by two slightly bigger armadillos who are turquoise. And just for the record, Adahan is my favorite boss! XD So there!)

"Why I should…" Adahan chuckled. "Yeah. You should, but you're not going to." Greedy paused. "Oh?" Adahan pointed down the hole. "Yup." Suddenly, numerous green spheres came up from the shaft and began to build an orbot from the feet up. When it was complete, Vectorman stood there. "Yup." He started walking towards the cell. "Waitwaitwaitwait! How did you…" Vectorman stopped and faced Greedy. "Simple." He paused, then resumed talking, sounding exactly like Sonic. "It's a little thing I call 'Advanced Earth Technology". I can make it seem like I'm at one place, but actually be in another."

He paused again, then resumed, this time sounding like Ristar. "I can also make solid holograms. Those are regular holograms, but they feel solid. Finally, I can make my own voice sound like someone else's." He changed back to his regular voice. "Like so. But, that's only a glimpse of what I can do." With that, he turned around again and walked over to the lock on the cell. He looked at it, then began laughing his head off. "Hahahahaha! Is this all! I can pick this with my pinky finger!" Greedy glanced at the orbot's hand and asked, "Which finger is your pinky finger?" Vectorman started and looked at his three-fingered hand. "Good point." "So, where are those two brats?" Vectorman glanced around the room and stopped at the wall opposite the window.

(Remixes)

None, that I know of…

"Oh, for the love of… I told them not to crash my ship!" Greedy turned to Inonsis. "Activate force fields." Inonsis did so, but Vectorman motioned Adahan over. "It's a bit late for that!" Suddenly, a crash came from a few rooms over and they kept getting closer. "Uh oh." Just then, the wall everyone was looking at broke out. "HOLY FREAK!" Greedy moved backwards to a the same speed that he had done when he'd thrown Inonsis around. A ship came out of the wall and came to a stop were Greedy was only seconds ago.

The door opened and steam, along with a coughing Sonic, stumbled out. "Hey, guys." Antoine began bouncing around. "Yippee! We are saved!" Mina spoke up again. "Sonic, do you really know this creep?" Sonic looked at Greedy. "Well, I'd be lying if I said I didn't." Shadow spoke up this time. "So, where's your friend?" As if to answer his question, Ristar broke through the windshield of the shuttle and smashed Uranium into the wall. Inonsis was thrown on top of Uranium seconds later. "Ahahahahaha! This is the most fun I've had since the first time I met you, ugly!" Greedy spun his head towards Inonsis. "Don't just stand there! Shoot him! Shoot him!" The Magnum Worm began firing off rounds of its machine gun, but it did nothing but decorate the walls.

When Ristar began slowing down he used his dhalsim arms to pull himself up onto a chandelier. Sally and the others were amazed that a shooting star like this existed. "Whoo, boy! Man, that was fun! OW!" He squirmed and pulled something out from behind him. He held a piece of diamond-shaped glass. "That's it." He tossed it aside and jumped on top of the ship.

"I swear. What is it with villains and sharp, pointy things?"

"I don't know that, but I do know this…"

"And that is?"

Greedy pointed to Vectorman who was gaping at the front of his ship

(Urban Strike (Sega Genesis) - Title Screen fades out)

"MY SHIP!" He then ran inside a cried, "Initiate reconstruction of windshield." The windshield suddenly grew a green wire-frame pattern shaped like a windshield. Ristar poked it and was startled to find that his finger went right through it. "I wouldn't do that if I were you, not unless you want your finger to become part of my windshield." Ristar immediately pulled back his finger. When the green wire-frame disappeared, the windshield was crystal clear. "Engage auto-pilot." Vectorman stepped out of the ship, Ristar jumped off, and a robotic voice answered. Auto-pilot engaging… A screeching noise came from the ship as it crawled backwards and out of the hole in the wall. After a few minutes, the screeching was out of hearing distance.

Vectorman looked at the two friends. "Mark my word, if you two did anything else to my ship…" Sonic sweatdropped. "Well, you can't exactly blame me. I've never been well with machines." Vectorman shrugged. "So. What part of 'Don't crash my ship' is hard for you to understand?" Knuckles had been glancing around and saw Adahan lying on the floor, looking quite dead. "Adahan?" The three newcomers and the bad guys looked over to Adahan's nonmoving body then at a chewing sound coming from the lock. The captives peeked out the best they could and saw a small orange armadillo chewing away at the lock. He paused when he noticed everybody in the room was looking at him.

"Yes?" Rotor pointed a finger at him. "Aren't you…" Adahan began nodding like a retard. "Yup. I'm Adahan." Rotor raised an eyebrow and pointed at the nonmoving robot. "And that?" Adahan looked and laughed. "Oh, that. That's just my armor. No only does it make me bigger, it makes all of my attacks stronger. Ristar helped me rebuild after he beat Greedy the first time." He then threw both arms in the air. "It's sort like a.. Wuh oh." He slowly began to fall of the lock. He swung his arms wildly in the hope that he might grab the lock, but he didn't. Before he hit the floor, he rolled himself into a ball, hit the ground and rolled over to his armor.

He unrolled himself, got onto the armor and looked like he was going to sprint for the jetpack. "Okay. Here we go!" He took off running, more like scurrying, for the jetpack. When he reached it, he jumped and got stuck halfway inside of it. "This happens every time." His voice echoed inside the armor. He finally managed to squeeze himself through, but crashes and bangs echoed from inside the armor. "Whoops. Sorry. Ah. Didn't mean to step on that. And, what the heck is that? Ah, well. Ah, here we go." He finally got to wherever he was going because the armor's eyes flashed and he stood up. "I've really got to clean the inside of this."

"Ahem." Sonic and Ristar turned a looked at Uranium. "Are we going to start the butt-kicking now or what?" Ristar chuckled. "What a great idea!" Greedy sat down in his throne-like chair. "In that case, let the games begin!"

Yay! Another load off my chest! Anyways, the next few chapters will be boss battles chapters, so stay tuned!

Sonic: Well, well. It's about time you brought me back.

Metal Sonic EX: I know. And if anyone wants to find out how Sonic, Ristar, Vectorman, and Adahan reunited, REVIEW ME! If you do, I'll set up a story that explains it.

Sonic: Why didn't you just add it into the fanfic?

Metal Sonic EX: I figured that it would take too much time.

Sonic: -slaps face-

Metal Sonic EX: -slaps Sonic's face-

Sonic: OW! Hey, what was that for!

Metal Sonic EX: I just did what you did. Whatever. Anyways, Read and Review please! -smiles-
