In this chapter, the group begins restoring the Oil Ocean Zone to it's previous state. No boring introductory statements this time. So, here's chapter sixteen!

Scene Sixteen

Cleaning Up The Planet

Morning arrived and the group set out. Shortly, they arrived at an abandoned Eggman base. There was, quite literally, an entire ocean of oil surrounding the base. Adahan whistled at this. "Oh boy. This could take a while." Vectorman shrugged. "I don't have anything planned. So, I'm getting to work. See ya!" Vectorman ran off, leaving behind a confused group.

"Oh well. I'm sure he's got something planned." Suddenly, Vectorman shouted back to them. "Oh yeah! Almost forgot! Throw Adahan in there for me!" Adahan started and spun around as the android ran off. "What's that mean?" He was cut off by Ristar lifting him. "Who knows. Let's try it." Ristar threw Adahan like a baseball pitcher and Adahan cried out, "TRAITOR!" He fell headfirst into the oil and everyone froze when they realized what was about to happen. They managed to duck for cover as the entire Oil Ocean Zone was set ablaze.

Adahan was nowhere to be seen, but everyone immediately reacted. Sonic and Ristar ran back and grabbed some pails of water and ran back. They continued to repeat this process until it was obvious that it wasn't working. By now, the oil fire had almost burnt itself out. "Hope Adahan's okay." Sonic nodded and then started as a form emerged from the flames. Of course, it was the charred form of Adahan. "I'm going to char that robot's…" Ristar cut in. "Uh, he's an orbot." Adahan continued on. "Whatever. I'm going to char him nonetheless."

Once Adahan left, the group just sat and watched the fired burn itself out. "So, where do you think those two are?" After Mina cut the silence, Ristar shrugged. "Who knows." Meanwhile, Vectorman was in a pickle. "Help. I'm stuck." Vectorman was in his drill mode and he was drilling a path for the water to return in, but he'd gotten stuck between the ground and a boulder. Adahan walked up and stood there. "I could use some help here." Adahan crossed his miniature arms. "I could use an apology." Vectorman sighed. "Fine,. I'm sorry. But you should know the water and oil won't mix. I had to get rid of it." Adahan made a 'humph' noise. "By throwing me into the oil so I'd start a fire?" Vectorman nodded the best that he could. "Yes." Adahan shrugged and began digging a hole for Vectorman to crawl out of.

Back at the group, everyone was helping to dispose of the ash that remained. Sally, Amadeus, and Rosemary all swept, Sonic and Mina spun it into tornado and then took it away, and Ash (no pun intended), Tails, and Ristar were holding the dustpans. Shortly, it had been entirely cleaned out. "Well, I guess you could call this place the Large Crater Zone now. I mean look at it." Ristar did look around. "Look at what?" Sonic smirked slightly. "That's the point."

Suddenly, the ground began shaking. "Do you guys feel that?" Everyone turned as Vectorman and Adahan appeared and they were running for their lives. "Oh boy." Everyone took off and ran towards high ground and, within seconds of the last person climbing up, a sudden rush of water appeared and filled the crater. Soon, crystal clear water was in the spot where the oil ocean had been seconds ago. "And I dub this land Crystal Ocean Zone!" Vectorman pretended to plant a flag and then he noticed something. "That's not good." Everyone turned and saw the still-standing form of Eggman's old base.

"How do you intend on getting rid of that?" Vectorman chuckled and lifted his arm. "Simple. Begin deletion process on abandoned Eggman base. Location: Crystal Ocean Zone." Shortly, the base began deleting into thin air and, a few minutes later, nothing remained of it. Deletion of abandoned Eggman base complete. Vectorman stretched and yawned. "Well, we'd better be leaving." Sonic started. "So soon?" Ristar smirked. "It's been fun, but we've got duties in our galaxies to deal with. We could come and visit." Sonic took Ristar's hand and shook it. "I'll hold you to that." Vectorman quickly intervened. 'Well, let's go. The ship's back at Station Square. Onward!" The group departed and a familiar yet annoying spider-like being reappeared as they moved out of sight. 'Now is the perfect time to strike. They will barely expect an attack now. Hahahahaha!"

Gasp. Another short chapter. In the next chapter, Vectorman runs into an old nemesis and the final battle begins. Read and Review so I won't harm you.
