Disclaimer: I do not own Sonic the Hedgehog, Ristar, Vectorman, or anything that pertains to any of their worlds. Nor do I own any of the music mentioned and/or used in this fanfic. If I did, I'd currently be hiring the Italian Mafia to hunt down those of you who have Read, but not Reviewed. However, in reality, I do not. Reality sucks. So don't sue me.

In this chapter, the gang squares off with the villain from the Sonic series. I do own the robot mentioned in this chapter, so unless you've got my permission, hands off! So, for now, chapter twelve!

Scene Twelve

The Incredible, Edible Eggman

"Vectorman! You did it!" Amadeus let out a sigh of relief as his wife and son hugged him. Mina's mom came running up and also embraced her daughter, just a lot harder.

"Momma…"

"Don't ever do something like this again! Do you hear me?"

Mina blushed slightly as Ash walked up to the worn-out android. "I guess I owe you an apology. Them too." He motioned to Ristar and Adahan, who smirked. "Well, maybe not the armadillo, but still…" Adahan got ticked. "Hey! Ya big meanie!" Before Ash could apologize, an explosion rang out. An odd-looking robot with a mace walked out of the smoke. "Eggman!" The evil genius laughed. "Hahahahaha! You're quite impressive, hedgehog! However, both Warhead and I knew that Greedy would fall. But Warhead himself? This is miraculous!" Vectorman and Sonic stepped forward. "Not as miraculous as the fireworks display you're about to put on!"

Eggman laughed evilly again. "Fools! You can't defeat me with the power I have! Behold!" The robot began glowing each of seven different colors. "The Chaos Emeralds!" Eggman laughed again. "Hahahahaha! Let's see what you've got, hedgehog!"

Eggman raised the robot's mace above his head. "Egg Mace away!" Eggman shot the mace into the air and it landed not-to-far away from the startled group. Sonic instinctively took off like a flash and began circling the robot. Eggman raised a shield and fired a large laser from it. This nearly hit Sonic, but he managed to dodge it at the last second. Suddenly, without warning, an energy shot came out of nowhere, hit the Egg Mace in the head, and shot into the sky. "What the… Vectorman?"

Vectorman seemed prepped for anything. "What are you doing?" Vectorman would've smirked if he could've. "I'm helping you out. Besides, you deserve a break from taking on Greedy and the Buttmunch Squad." Sonic looked at him weird. "You're one to be talking. You just saved the planet from blowing up." Vectorman would've smirked again. "And I'm still ready for more." Sonic shrugged and Eggman cleared his throat. "I hope I'm not interrupting anything. I mean, killing Sonic isn't that important to me."

Vectorman rolled his eyes. "Do me a favor and hold this." Vectorman pointed to a bent girder and Eggman reluctantly grasped it. "And…" Vectorman waved and Eggman immediately let go. "I'm not falling for that!" Vectorman chuckled. "Already have." He pointed to the girder again and everyone watching now noticed the girder trembling. A creaking noise was heard as it bent in two and Eggman looked up slowly to see the remainder of a construction sight fall on top of him. "I knew that that would get him. It always does."

As the girders went flying everywhere, the Egg Mace jumped into the air and shot the mace and Vectorman. To the astonishment of everyone, Vectorman stopped it with a single hand. "Is this it? I thought I'd get a workout. After all, you're an evil genius, right?" Eggman growled and shot another laser out of the shield. This, Vectorman swiftly dodged. "Now you're talking!" Vectorman shot an energy shot at Eggman's head and it was deflected into the sky again. By now, Sonic had snuck to right behind the Egg Mace's head and finally managed to break a hole for him to crawl into. However, Eggman heard this and spun around quickly, sending Sonic into the dirt.

"You could've been nice about it. WOAH!" Again, Sonic had to dodge the mace as it slammed into the ground where he'd just been. "Hold still, hedgehog!" Sonic smirked. "Sorry. Standing's not my style." Vectorman managed to get a boot blast into the Egg Mace's head and this threw him backwards a little bit.

Sonic managed to spin-dash to the open hole in the robot's head and crawl inside. Vectorman noticed this, so he decided to take it easy for now. He began dodging laser after laser and soon, he started wondering where Sonic was. Meanwhile, on the inside of the Egg Mace, Sonic had gotten tangled in some wires. "Well, this sucks." He suddenly heard some familiar chuckling. He turned and saw Eggman ready with that roboticizer hand of his. "Yes, it does."

He began reaching in for the kill and suddenly the windshield shattered. Eggman started and looked behind him to see a small armadillo. "Don't ask." Eggman walked over to the armadillo, picked him up with his other hand, and threw him out of the windshield. "And stay out!" He heard a chuckle and he looked behind him to see Sonic about to exit the interior. "If you insist." Eggman lunged for him, but ended up getting his arm tangled in the wires himself. "Curse you, hedgehog!" Sonic spin-dashed the Egg Mace's head and Vectorman boot-blasted it. This caused the Egg Mace to fall down, but it untangled Eggman.

Eggman quickly jumped to the controls, stood up, and fired the mace that was no longer attached to it's arm. "What the…" Vectorman began singing the newly-removed mace around. "Looking for something?" Eggman growled again. "Give me that!" Vectorman shrugged. "If you insist." He threw the mace at the robot and it heavily damaged it in the process. "Curse you all!" Vectorman beamed. "And curse you too." Another girder fell on the Egg Mace for seemingly no reason. "I hate hedgehogs, androids, and armadillos!" The Egg Mace began exploding and Eggman broke through the ceiling in a familiar hovership. "Don't think that this is over! Cause it's not! It's not over by a…" The robot exploded and it sent Eggman and his ship flying into the sky.

Vectorman brushed his hands together. "Well, that was easy." Ristar pointed to a silhouette that emerged from the flames. "Yeah. And there's still more!" Everyone watched as the figure grew larger and larger until they could see the last person they expected. "Uranium!"

In the next chapter, the group learns the fate of Uranium and fights an even harder form of him. So, until then, Read and Review. Emphasize on review.
