Important – I wrote this with Demino. We don't own Digimon or Sonic
"Where do we go?" Any asked as she helps keep Sonic up.
"My house," Mimi said. "My dad has a laptop. I think we can use it
to enter the Digi-World."
"Alright," Tai said scooping Mimi into his arms. Still in pain Sonic
and Tai rush to Mimi house while carrying Mimi and Amy.
Metal-Overlord hovered over the city. "That worthless Sonic took the
Emerald some where," he grunted as he scans the black out city.
Slowly the city lit up. With each light lit, Metal-Overlord picked
up more static as he searched for the Emerald. "I'll just destroy
the city."
"No you won't," the metal-Greymon yelled, "Giga blaster."
"Fool," Metal-Overlord said, "You can't win." The two missiles
explode on the metal dragon form. "That's was weak but I still
should compress you." Metal-Overlord open his mouth to bit the
digimon.
"Get away from him!" Moving back in to attack as a Leomon yelled
out the command, the other newly freed digimons growled as they
crowded in around the large metallic dragon, all of them glaring at
him as they powered up an attack to use against him.
Shooting them a non-caring look, Metal-Overload shot up into the
air, his body glowing with energy as he fire doff several powerful
chaos missiles down at the digimons. "Against one or a hundred, it
doesn't matter, this time I win!"
Watching as a large crater formed in the ground from his attack,
Metal-Overlord just stared as large cloud of digital data was sucked
into the gateway, the deleted digimons getting dragged back to their
world. "And with that out of the way, I can resume my hunt for Sonic
again."
Meanwhile, Mimi sat in front of her father's laptop. "Ready," She
cheered, "All we need to do it open the portal and we're there."
"So we're going to run in the Digi-World," Amy said.
"We can drop the Emerald off at Gennai and then we cane get back
here to stop help fight him," Tai said.
"You're not," Mimi said, "You still hurt and Sonic is too." Mimi
raised her digivice up and the four where in the other world.
Metal-Overlord lips twice and he scream, "Where are you blue
coward."
"The faker's not here but the ultimate lifeform is," Shadow said
landing on a nearby car.
"Great the copy is back," Metal-Overlord, said, "It time I remove
you as I search for the real Sonic."
Smirking as he jumped up into the air, Shadow quickly fired off
several attacks, each one hitting Metal-Overlord right in the fire.
"Nobody can outdo the Ultimate Lifeform, least of all a walking
trashcan like you."
Shaking off the attacks, Metal-Overlord growled as he fire doff a
set of chaos spears, each one ripping the pavement and sending dirt
flying around the whole area. "It's going to take more then one of
you to take me down, you hear me!"
"We do." Sora's voice filled the air as both her and Rouge stepped
forward, her digivice glowing as she glared up at the metallic
dragon. "And for what you did to my friend back there, I wont
forgive you!" At her last word, a powerful humming filled the air as
Rouge began to glow in a bright white color.
"Rougemon warp digivovle to Emeraldmon." The glowing light grew a
little. When the light dim, there stood a tall human like female.
Long red hair reached down to her back of her emeralds green robe.
Then she pulled out a long crystal staff showing the gold under
robe. "Emeralds of illusion."
Large emeralds appeared around Metal-Overlord. The emeralds changed
into copies of Shadow and Rouge. "You think those little gems will
stop me." Metal-Overlord crushed one Shadow only to have it
shattered. The shards hover there then the pieces rush at
Metal-Overlord.
"Not that simple," Rouge said as Shadow attack once more.
Moving back as the emeralds copies attacked him along with Shadow,
Metal-Overlord growled as he felt a bit of hesitation in doing this.
Clearly he shouldn't have deleted the digimons he had once drawn
power and skills from, no, if he had once more converted them, he
would have laid waste to this place, and those blasted furries.
Still, even if he was outnumbered right now, he could change that,
all he needed to do was convert the furries that hadn't become
mega's yet, and use them to overpower the Sonic wanna be hedgehog
and the blasted bat. "Eat this!"
Letting lose with a blast of pure energy, he knocked both Rouge and
Shadow out of his way, as well as reduced another buildings front
side to rubble. "And as for you Kitty cat and the Bunny Rabbit,
prepare to become part of me!" Opening his mouth as he finished
talking, Metal-Overlord grinned as a multicolored sphere of light
began to form inside of it. "Conversion Beam!"
Cream screamed as her body crush onto itself. She started to cry at
the pain from her entire body being squeezed. "Cream," Kari screamed
as she pushes out the rabbit out of the beam.
"Little girl," Metal-Overlord said, "You saved the rabbit but not
the cat." He use is tail to removed Kari and Cream from his way then
came to the disk. A small claw came from his chest and reaches the
disk. Quickly the claw pulled into his chest. "Not much power but a
start."
Hundreds of shards crash into them. Metal-Overlord looked up at the
mega level furries. "Bat girl," Shadow yelled. "I'll attack the tin
can. You just make sure he has a hard time to beat him. I know where
the disk are and I'll rip them out."
"You got it." Moving forward, Rouge timed her attack as she game
closer to Metal-Overlord, the large metallic dragon glaring at her.
"Hey Metal head, try this one, Gem Spear!" Tossing her hand out in a
mimic of Shadow's Chaos Spear, Rouge grinned as a spear made of
gemstone shot through the air and hit Metal-Overlord.
Moving back as the gem spear scraped off part of his paint,
Metal-Overlord snapped out his mouth in anger as more chaos energy
shot out, ripping the air and missing Rouge as she dodged it with
more speed then she had expected, leaving the chaos beam to cut off
the very top of Tokyo tower in the distance. "You, Hey, what are you
doing you Sonic wanna be!."
"Chaos Sword!" Ripping the sword through the air while it hummed
with power, Shadow smirked as it easily tore through
Metal-overlord's chest plate. "Heh, this is almost too easy."
Reaching in his free hand, Shadow grinned as he caught the only disk
inside of the metallic dragon's chest. "Sorry Metal Head, but I'll
be taking this back."
"It will take more than getting rid on my digimon disks to stop me,
you wanna be Sonic," Metal-Overlord chuckle. Then he clawed at
Shadow.
"I know," Shadow said, "With it out of my way I can hit you weak
point. Chaos Sword." He stab deep into the metal dragon.
Metal-Overlord stumbled back. His optics slowly dimmed as battery
acid drip from the holes formed by the sword. Soon the steel frame
dropped to the ground. Then a bright light cover it as it faded
away.
"Way to go Shadow," Matt said.
"At least the faker was not in my way," Shadow said as he returned
to normal.
"We need to find them," Kari said.
"Why don't the rest of you search," Shadow said, "I can't do
everything for you slackers."
Glaring harshly at Shadow, Tails quickly turned around and began to
walk off, his tails twitching as he stopped to look over his
shoulder at Shadow. "Some leader you are, all you care about is your
petty ego and being the strongest."
Nodding in agreement, Rouge landed on the ground still in her mega
form, eyes turning to regard a fuming dark colored hedgehog. "He's
right you know, you're not acting like a leader right now, more like
a spoiled child."
"At least I not some who collect worthless stone," Shadow said
crossing his arms.
"Wait," Cream yelled, "Eggman can enter this world so we need to
rest."
"Fine," Rouge said changing into her in-training form. Sora picked
up her partner and walked home. On the way home her small gem
digimon was complaining about the black hedgehog. Sora entered her
living room to see Knuckles sitting as her mother talk. "Sora, you
back," Her mother said, "I was telling Knuckles how to keep plants
healthy."
"Next time you fight Eggman...Please tell me," Knuckles cried.
"Knuckles," Rouge yelled as she hope over to him, "Did you miss me?"
Sora just look at her partner whose younger form seam to change her
behavior.
Knuckles, gave the smaller version of Rouge a similarly confused
stare before getting up from his spot, stretching his arms up over
his head. "Thanks for the talk Mrs. Takenouchi." Walking past Rouge
and Sora, he stare down at the white fuzzy ball to see her stare
back with a whimpering look in her eyes. "Yes Rouge, I did miss
you."
"Yay!" Jumping out of Sora's arms, Rouge talked Knuckles as she hit
him, her loud laughter making the red colored echidna grit his teeth
as he pushed himself up. "So how much did you miss me Knuckles, a
lot? Or even more then that?"
Pulling her off him, Knuckles handed her back over to Sora and did
his best not to frown and growl at her. "Anyway, I'm going out for
some fresh air, and don't worry, I won't be seen by anyone."
"Did I say something wrong?" Rouge asked.
"I just he needs some time," Sora said, "After all he never seen you
like this. Lets get something to eat and then we can watch TV."
Pushing his way out through the apartment buildings rooftop window
Knuckles grumbled as he walked over to look down at the city below
him. The place about as different from what he knew as it could get.
He had always lived on Angel Island, a place without any modern
comfort, and now, he was in the middle of another major city. One
that could rival Station Square in both size and noise. How could
anyone stand to live in a place like this, the only plants and trees
he had seen so far had been in Mrs. Takenouchi's flower shop, and
the park.
Planting himself on the edge of the roof, the red colored echidna
glared down at the concrete he was sitting on, the rough surface not
even doing anything to feel like the rocky edge of his island he was
used to sitting on.
And what of the Master Emerald? He had been meant to protect it, but
now Eggman had it and all he had done so far was stay in this world
while Sonic fought Eggman along with those kids.
But Sonic wouldn't fight to the Master Emerald back, not yet. He
would save the world first, but by then it could be too late, Eggman
could have chopped up the Master Emerald by now even.
And that is why he knew what he had to do. Find his way into the
digital world again, and reclaim the master Emerald no matter what.
Meanwhile Tai enter his apartment with Sonic next to him. "Tai,"
Kari yelled running to her brother. "Where have you been? You never
contacted me."
"Sorry," Tai said, "We went to Gennai's for him to hid our emerald."
"Is that all you were doing?" Kari asked, "After all you have a
thing for Mimi and Amy."
"Do not," Tai and Sonic yelled as they enter the apartment.
"Mimi though that it would be best since Gennai could hide it," Tai
said, "It the only one we got." Tai drop to the seat and rest into
his hands.
"We'll get more," Tails said.
"Thanks," Tai said.
"Your welcome," Tails said, "but the first one we should get is the
Master Emerald after all that is the most powerful."
"I sure Knuckles would be happy to hear that," Cream said.
Watching the two emeralds that had arrive dot his lair, Eggman gave
a small chuckle as he picked each one up, planting them in their
respective places on the massive elemental control machine with
extreme care. "There, now we can expand our domain to all the four
corners of the digital world, with only the most distant place out
of our hands."
Behind him, Datamon nodded as he monitored the data he was
receiving. "Still, the far distant places comes up to 15 percent, we
need the last emerald, how is Metal-Sonic doing, has he secured it
yet?"
Expression turning sour, Eggman turned away from his machine, one
hand gripping the safety railing with a harsh movement. "Metal has
failed, his signal was lost half an hour ago, which can only mean
that he has been completely scrapped. "
Walking over to the lift, Eggman pressed its button and began to
descend to the lower level. "This also means that we are down to the
Eggpawn army, and the remaining metal digimons to protect the base
and the machine. But most importantly, they must protect the Master
Emerald, otherwise we will be without power since we lost our oil
fields on File Island, and with them, half of the supply we need
each day to keep going at this rate."
The next morning, Tai was on the balcony looking over the city. "Hey
Tai," Kari said joining to watch the sun raise, "What are you
thinking?"
"I worry," Tai said.
Kari smiled, "I know that. Why do you think that I ask? I want to
know what you worry about. I'm your sister and I know you."
"I don't know if we can get the Master Emerald," Tai said, "We're
not the best team right now. Knuckles a lose cannon. Matt and Shadow
are hostile to most of us. I don't know if we can win."
"I'm sure that we can win," Kari said, "Come on the others are
waiting."
Following after her, both Tai and Sonic nodded over at Knuckles as
they saw the red colored echidna leaning on the wall right outside
his apartment, water dripping off his dreadlocks. "You going into
the digital world?"
"Yeah, thought it was time we got back your little gem stone for
you." Sonic grinned out as he watched Knuckles's purple eyes glint
with annoyance. "Now come on, I'm sure we can find a spot for you on
the team, if there is a team."
Giving the hedgehog a confused stare as he followed, Knuckles gave
up on finding out as the blue hedgehog seemed to be far to obsessed
with fighting Eggman at the moment. "Just make sure none of you
damage the Master Emerald, got it?"
"I'll see what I can do," Sonic said, "Could you keep an eye out for
Eggman bots in this world?"
"If I must," Knuckles said, "I don't see why I can't come with you."
"You loss your head when the Master Emerald is involved," Sonic
said, "We're be back later."
They came to the lake where Gennai hid his house and the meeting
place. "So great leader," Matt said as her rolled his eyes, "How do
we find it with out the only one that can feel it."
"Simple we go to the place that Eggman is guarded the most," Tai
said, "Then we come up with a plan."
"That amazing," Shadow said, "You the greatest leader ever."
"I'm just waiting until we know what we're going against," Tai said,
"You fake lifeform."
"What did you just call me?" Shadow snapped back as he clenched up
his hands, once fist already glowing with chaos energy as he took a
step forward. "If anyone's a faker around here, it's you!"
Moving into a battle stance, Sonic's eyes nearly glowing with the
anger he felt as he faced Shadow head on. "What's the matter Shadow,
did I hit a nerve, is the big bad Ultimate lifeform angry at
admitting he's nothing more then a test tube creature? Or is it the
fact you suck as a leader that's getting to you?"
"Enough," Sora yelled, "I had it with you fighting all the times. We
needed to save the Digi-World, Our world, and maybe Rouge's worlds.
Now will you grow up? You four are now under a new rule. You can't
say anything unless it's too help us with saving the world."
Tai look at one of his oldest friend and said, "but..."
"I said no talking," Sora said, "Lets go to the Digi-World and find
the Master Emerald."
"Why should I just listen to someone brains leak out of her head,"
Shadow said.
"What," Sora yelled before she started to stomps on the black
hedgehog. They heard the bone breaking.
"Calm down Sora," Tai said as he searched for a way to get away if
Sora enragement turn to him, He only seen Sora angry a few times,
but every one of them had been when someone got hurt. "Lets do what
you say."
Sora turned to Tai and nodded. Soon the group was in the Digi-World.
"Izzy," Kari said, "Do you have an idea of where to go?"
"We could follow the chaos Energy," Izzy said.
Nodding more to herself then the others as Izzy finished talking,
Sora quickly looked around at the group around her. "Okay, we'll
with that plan, but Izzy, we might need some more backup just in
case, think you can get some of the international digi destined to
stand by just in case?"
Of to the side, Tai raised an eyebrow at the question Sora had just
made. Sure, he knew there were other digi destined, but he hadn't
thought of calling on them for help, most of them barely had an
ultimate, and just how did she plan on getting them to come and
help, unless. "You're sending us out to pick up helpers?"
Shooting Tai a still annoyed look, She gave a sigh and stared at him
again. "No, but I think we can open the gate from the digital world
for them if we need their help against the remaining metal copies."
"Lets hope we won't need them," Tai said.
They follow Izzy to a clearing. Mighty then drag Izzy into a group
of rocks. Just then a patrol of eggpawns flew over them. Using the
rock to hid they made their way to see Eggman's base. Hundreds of
robots hover in the sky. There stand a large steel tower with three
walls surrounding it. Many crafts moved into it.
"This one may take a while," Rouge said, "I'm sure with a little
study I can find how to get it in. I already see a few flaws. I need
sometime alone to see what I can do."
"Take all the time you want." Mighty added as he looked over at a
small group of Eggpawns marching towards the fortress. "Meanwhile, I
think we should look into freeing them." He muttered out while
pointing a finger at the four prisoners getting dragged after the
robots in a cage.
Looking over at the robots, Sonic shook his head as he looked at the
area around them. "Sorry Mighty, but its a no go, there's too many
bots around, not to mention the alarms would go off if we so much as
sneezed in their direction."
"That rich, the faker's taking care not to cause to much noise."
Shadow muttered out as he leaned up against their hiding spot, his
arms crossed over his chest. "Now the world will be coming to end
soon, I just know it."
Before Sonic could say anything Amy cover his mouth with her glove.
"Sonic we don't want to be noticed," she said, "Shadow if you don't
have any useful information then don't talk." Amy smiled. Shadow
turn away. "If you don't like it then go some where else."
"Fine then," Shadow said, "Matt Lets go to find some digimons to
save while these fools sit around." Matt nodded and got up.
After they left, Mimi asked, "What with them?"
"Don't think about it," Sora said, "We have other thing to worry
about. Like Rouge being alone in that base."
"She'll be fine," Sonic said, "She a thief and have done jobs like
this before."
"Sonic right," Tai added, "We need to see what we can come up with.
There's to many to draw them away and I bet the metal copies are in
there as well."
"Do we need to be here?" Cream asked, "Why can we attack other
Eggman's places while a small group is here."
"Because we need everyone help if we want to make it out of this
alive." Mighty added in as he took his turn to stare at the fortress
up ahead. "Think about, the other metal-copies were almost to
powerful for us unless we did that digivolving. And there are still
several of them left in there."
Giving a light nod at that explanation, the young rabbit turned her
attention to Kari who simply smiled at her as she too weren't to
happy about being this close to overall danger.
"Be quiet back there." Came the hissed out order from Sora as she
ducked down into hiding along with Mighty, the sound of Eggpawns
marching past reaching the others who tried to remain as invisible
as they could.
There they rest in the shadows as the rock rumble. Soon, a pair of
black boots with pink on them slip into view. Soon Rouge entered the
rock pile. "It's hard and I smell a trap."
"I do to," Tai said, "I think the Metal copies are waiting for us to
get the Master Emerald. We need to thing of a way to turn this trap
to our advantage."
"What about the others you were talking about," Cream said.
"Eggman would not be expected it," Tails said, "If we're luckily
then the metal would leave if not then at least were there less
Egg-pawn to deal with."
"Dose any have anything to say about Cream's plan?" Tai asked. find
no hand have been raised, Tai continue, "Rouge you'll lead the older
DD in while the younger get the others Digi-destined ready. We're
move when they attack."
"Great, we get to play backup." Davis muttered out as he watched the
older digi destined, plus Kari and TK sneak off towards the
fortress. "Why couldn't I have come along with them, I mean
ImperialDramon can help them."
Opening up his D-terminal to contact the first of the international
digi destined, Ken cast an amuse look over at Davis. "You're right,
but look at from this point, if they get into trouble, you can rush
in and play hero."
Grinning at the comment, Davis gave a small nod as he pulled out his
own D-terminal. "True Ken, besides, who says we can't join them
after calling the other digi destined."
"I think that the coming Digi-destined will need ImperialDramon more
than Tai," Yolie said, "We need a powerhouse too." Davis smiled.
Meanwhile Rouge stood before the group and started to speak,
"Alright, from now on I am the leader. You do what I tell you when I
tell you. It'll take a while to get to the Master Emerald with this
large group and no complaining. Also if you have nothing to say
about getting in then you have nothing to say. Our first goal is the
heat vent. In side we take it slowly a quit."
"Got it." Came the reply as each one began to move towards the heat
vent, following after Rouge as she showed them how to avoid the
alarm systems and traps.
Meanwhile inside the command room, Eggman stared at a screen showing
the younger digi destined standing on a nearby hill, their digimons
attacking the Eggpawns moving in to stop them. "Hmm, guess we have a
small diversion on our hands."
Standing up and marching over to the com links, Eggman glared at the
screen again. "Think I wouldn't notice that none of the furries are
with them?" Pressing the button, Eggman grinned as each of hsi
remaining Metal-Copies could be seen on it. "Attention,
Metal-Zudomon and Metal-MegaKabuterimon, I want you two to go out
and destroy the digi destined attacking my eggpawns.
Metal-Wargreymon and Mecha-Garurumon, you two will guard the master
emerald from getting stolen."
Rouge leaded the group in the shadows. She lowered to the ground and
dug her glove into the metal. The other did the same before a huge
gust of wind try to drag them away. After the wind was gone they
continue once more. They came to a vent leading to the left. They
ducked into the vent. "Wait here, " Rouge said, "I have something I
need to download in the computer." She quickly returned.
After a short time, they enter a large empty room. "Look,
Metal-Zudomon," Metal-MegaKabuterimon said, "Our pray came to us."
"I bet Mecha-Garurumon and Metal-Wargreymon will not be happy,"
Metal-Zudomon said.
"Get going," Joe said.
"You can't handle them," Tai said.
"We don't need to win, just keep them busy for a while," Izzy said.
"Alright", Mighty yelled, "Fight time."
Rushing further into the base, the remaining group of older digi
destined stopped as they finally entered into a large, dome shaped
place. The whole place getting bathed in a pulsing multi colored
glow from the six emeralds resting on top of a large machine.
"Ah, so you are the famous digi destined I've heard so much about."
As the voice echoed through the room, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy
and Cream tensed as they glared toward a small hatch opening in the
wall above them. "And I see you have brought along my old enemies to
visit as well, how splendid."
Stepping into view, Eggman stood proudly in a bright spotlight as he
chuckled darkly down at the large group. "I welcome you all to the
capital of the new Eggman Empire, Eggtropolis, the city of the
future."
Walking in to stand next to Eggman, Datamon's eyes glowed red as he
watched Tai standing there with his fist clenched. "We hope you will
enjoy the surprise we have for you, Metal-Wargreymon!
Mecha-Garurumon! Attack them!"
"Tai, Sonic get the master Emerald," Mimi said, "We'll handle them."
"You can't beat them," Tai said.
"But we can keep them busy while you find it," Sora said, "You're
faster you should be able to get it before too long."
"Aright," Tai said, "Thanks Mimi, Sora."
Datamon smiled as he left the area. He entered a room with the
Master Emerald hanging on one wall. He stood there waiting for the
blurs to enter the room. "Finally, the leader Tai," Datamon said,
"First you drop me into a black pit and next you take my revenge
from Etemon from me. Are you still going to hid behind someone
else?"
"Datamon," Tai said, "Sonic, I'll handle this." Sonic nodded as Tai
ready himself to fight Datamon. The moment Tai ran at Datamon, Sonic
ran at the Master Emerald.
Only to get knocked back as the floor opened up to reveal Eggman in
yet another one of his crazy battle machines, this one sporting a
human shape with several shape spikes along its upper body and arms.
"I'm afraid I can't let you get it hedgehog, I need it to power the
gateway to the other world, so it too can become a part of the
Eggman Empire."
Pressing a row of buttons, Eggman let out a laugh as the battle
machines weapon systems activated, machine guns and missile
launchers powering up rapidly. "Now Hedgehog, it is time to crush
you, and recover the seventh chaos emerald."
"I hid it," Sonic said. The two missiles exploded when he was. Sonic
landed next to Tai. "Feel like having a power up?" Tai asked.
"Just make me go fully," Sonic said. Tai nodded.
Soon a golden glowing Sonic rush at Eggman machine. Sonic smiled as
doge the attacks of the mecha. "I've improved." He faded from sight
as the attack past by him. He turned into a sphere and beat into
Eggman's robot. "You would think that you improve the robots you
make."
"Who said I need to," Eggman said as he launched something at Sonic.
Sonic jumped away from the black spiral. "Stand still and become my
slave."
Giving him a disbelieving glare, Sonic grinned as he curled up into
a sphere, golden sparks flying form him as he shot right down at
Eggman's robot. "Homing Attack!" Several cracks began spreading
across the metal plates as a huge dent was formed from where Sonic
hit it. "You're finished Eggman!"
Screaming out in anger, Eggman hammered one hand down on the eject
button, the top part of his battle machine opening up and allowing
him to escape. "Think again Rodent, I can still use the chaos
emeralds I have to obtain world domination."
"You're not going to use the Master Emerald," Sonic yelled. Using
all his speed Sonic rushed to the Master Emerald. He yanked the
emerald from the wall. His right arm hugged the huge gem. Then he
rushed his body into Datamon. "Sorry for cutting in," he said, "but
we got what we came for and need to leave." Tai nodded and ran after
Sonic.
"Sonic, I'll tell the others, you get out of here," Tai said, "Get
that as far away as you can." Sonic nodded and spread away. Tai stop
and walk to Sora and Mimi. "We got the Master Emerald."
"We're in middle of a fight, we'll leave as soon as we can," Mimi
said. She turned to see Amy pinned to the ground while using he
hammer as a shield from the attack. "Amy, we got the Emerald. What
do you think we should do?"
"Run, what else, we're getting out butts kicked by these trashcans!"
Spitting out the words as the metal copy pinning her down was
knocked away, Amy quickly pushed herself up and glared at it as it
flung Rouge back through the air. "We really need more power if we
want to deal with these guys."
Backing off from the fight, Rouge and Sora agreed as well, Rouge in
her mega form limping a bit as she had met the surface of one of
Eggman's machines to hard.
"They must have more digi-disk in them," Sora said help Rouge to her
feet. Just then Amy rush over to them. She grabbed them with her
free arm. Amy rushed away trying to escape before they attacked
again.
Meanwhile, Tai stood next to Kari. He told Joe and Izzy and now with
Sonic he could just wait next to his sister for the other others. He
stood up crossing his arm waiting.
Rushing out of the building, Amy blinked as she spotted Tai waiting
for them, a serious expression on his face as he reached out and
grabbed Sora. "Hang on, I sent Sonic ahead of us to tell Davis and
the others to prepare for a retreat back to the real world."
Nodding in response as she found it more easy to run only holding
onto Rouge alone, Amy chanced a look over at her partner who were
huffing lightly as she ran a bit behind them. "Mimi, you okay back
there?"
"I'm fine," Mimi, said, "I say we get out of here." Sora nodded.
Mimi ran up to Tai. "Tai, since Sonic is gone. Why don't you come
with me?"
"I need to find Sonic," Tai said. He paused as a bot was sent flying
over his head. "But I guess it will not hurt if we search together."
"I'll come with you too," Sora, said, "I think that Rouge wants to
return the Master Emerald to Knuckles."
Meanwhile Eggman and Datamon stood looking where the Master Emerald
was. "Our main source of power is lost. Stick the Metals on the
remaining Chaos Emeralds and I want them to remain in contact with
each other. Come Datamon we need to find another source of power."
Back on earth, Knuckles pretty much ignored everyone else after he
had spotted the large glowing gem he had been guarding since
childhood. "You found it." Muttering out the words, the red colored
echidna shoved Sonic and Tai out of the way as he walked over and
grabbed the stone from Sora and Rouge. "And it doesn't even have a
scratch."
"It's nice to see you too Knucklehead." Sonic commented as both he
and Tai got a face full of carpet from where they landed after
getting shoved a bit to hard by the echidna. "And what do you mean
it doesn't have a scratch, you think we don't know how to take care
of it."
Not replying as he gave a weak, barely seen smile at Rouge, Knuckles
quickly returned to double checking the master emerald for any
damage he might have missed. "It's not that I don't trust you Sonic,
it just, with you fighting Eggman, anything can happen, and mostly
what happens is the wrong thing."
"At least I'm not fooled," Sonic said.
"What dose that means," Knuckles yelled.
"You've been trick by Eggman," Sonic said, "I lost count of how many
times. Remember when Chaos was freed."
"Why you," Knuckles yelled.
"Come on Sonic lets leave," Tai said as he pick up the blue
hedgehog. Tai left the room to see Mimi and Amy.
"Hey Tai," Mimi said, "Since we're off for the day, I was thinking
that we could go to a movie."
"I guess some time off will help," Tai said, "I'll pay but we see a
movie I want to see."
Giving Tai her best puppy eye look, Mimi slowly ran a finger down
over his chest as she leaned in closer to him. "Aw, but I really
wanted to see this movie, and today is it final day, so if we could,
you know, watch it tonight, we can see a movie you want tomorrow."
Smacking one fist into his face, Sonic shook his head as he watched
his partner get reduced to a mumbling wreck from the girl's puppy
eyes. "Great, now we get stuck watching a sappy love movie, when we
could all have been watching Blazing Red Hot Guns 2 or Street Wars
3."
"I thought those movies were banned for everyone under the age of
eighteen." Came the comment from Mighty as he lowered down the
newspaper he had confiscated from Tai's dad. "It also says here that
it got more violence in it then all other action movies before it"
Smirking as he glanced over at the armadillo, Sonic crossed his arms
as he thought of the movie. "I know, that why I want to see them,
you know it's not a good movie if there isn't a gun fight or an
explosion every five minutes."
"Please Sonic," Amy said with her puppy eyes. "You have action all
the time in your life what would two hours of romance hurt."
Mighty watch as the four left. "I wonder when Sonic is going to
release that he fell under Amy's puppy eyes?"
Meanwhile Kari smiled at Tai leaving with Mimi. "Its great," Kari
told Cream, "They would make a good couple."
Meanwhile Rouge watch Knuckles sit next to the Master Emerald.
"Everything fine right?" She asked.
"Yea," Knuckles said, "The Master Emerald is as good as it can be."
"You may need to keep it here," Rouge said, "The red head said he's
keeping an eye out for any portals from the Digi-World. Now down to
the pay for me getting that rock. I want to use your island as a
safe place for some of my valuables."
Knuckles jump to his feet. "Hey wait a min..."
"That means that I'll be there once and while to protect it," Rouge
said.
"I guess a little help won't hurt," Knuckles said
Standing silently in a corner, Shadow nearly sneered as he watched
everyone around him chat away as everything was just fine. "Eggman,
he's been far to good lately, and the others too. As the ultimate
lifeform, I can't let anyone become stronger then me, no matter
what."
Pulling on his power, the red and black hedgehog willed a chaos
control to take effect, the warp taking him halfway across the city
to stand on top of the remains of Tokyo Tower. "Maria, I promised to
be the best, to carry out your wish, and I will prove that I am the
best."
Meanwhile, Izzy was on his computer. He turned to his partner.
Mighty stop lifting the bed. "I can't find the Chaos Emeralds."
"Relax," Mighty said as he curled up the bed. "If you can't see it,
then look for how he use it."
"You mean his power sources," Izzy said. He turned back to the
computer. "Smart...Now put my bed down."
"Aw, I only needed to do another 99 push ups with it." Settling down
on the floor after putting the bed down as well, the armadillo gave
a soft whistling sound as he started doing some more workouts. "So,
you up to trashing the fake version of your old partner?"
Stopping his word at the question, Izzy stared ahead as he thought
about. "Yes, yes I am, only by destroying him can I find out what
happened to Tentomon." Pushing a few keys on his computer, he smiled
a bit over his shoulder. "But even if you are a bit to overactive
and remind me of Tai, I will miss you when you go back, and I think
my mom will too."
Shrugging as he did a one handed push up only supported by his toes,
Mighty grinned as he lowered himself down to make another one. "Hey,
she lets me use the furniture for workout, and I let her clean out
behind them while doing it, a fair trade if you ask me. Now what was
that about me being like Tai?"
"It doesn't matter," Izzy said.
Meanwhile Mimi and Amy were getting ready for their date with Tai
and Sonic. "And just a little make up to help hid today's activity,"
Mimi said. "You know it nice. Palmon never care about makeup."
"To bad," Amy said, "You know a lot of helpful hints."
"Well she was a plant," Mimi said, "I don't know much about green
skin."
"I think we're ready," Amy said.
Elsewhere Kari worked on her computer. "What are you doing?" Cream
asked as she petted Miko.
"Some school work," Kari said, "Tai left for his and Sonic date. So
what do you want to do?"
"How about a trip to the park, we haven't had anytime to relax
lately." Came the response as the young rabbit used her oversized
ears to hover in the air, her eyes closed as she flew in a small
circle around the room. "And then we can make some flower crowns, or
even..."
Staring at the rabbit, Kari shook her head and wondered if she had
been just as full of energy as Cream was when she was young, before
she started getting sick all the time. "Of course we can, but we
have be back before dark okay."
TK sat looking up from a paper. So this piece goes here. "Wait,"
Tails shouted, "That dose not go there." Tails took the piece from
TK and went to getting it on the plane. "You forget I build the real
ones these robot control ones are easy." TK watched at the speed
with which Tails made the pile into a small plane?
TK Smiled, "Lets go to the park and you can teach me how to fly it."
Tails nodded and grab the plane.
Sitting completely still under a tree in the park, Joe was doing his
best to remain calm as his new partner was busy breaking yet another
law. Fishing in a public parks lake. "Um, do you think its time to
head back, you know, before someone reports us for doing this?"
Okay, so he wasn't as calm as his partner, the giant purple cat busy
hurling in a large gold fish with a big smile on his face. "Alright,
got me another one, just two more to go before I break my own record
for this lake."
"I know you like fishing but you can't fish anywhere," Joe said look
for anyone.
"What do you mean?" Big asked.
"These fishes are for show only," Joe said.
Elsewhere Shadow walk into Matt's apartment. "Back from training,"
Matt said. Shadow nodded. "I guess the ultimate life needs to work
to stay better than the rest. Too bad luck is something you don't
get all the time."
"The fakers hog the luck," Shadow said.
"Lets eat," Matt said.
"What are we having anyway?" Shadow muttered out as he dropped down
into his chair, one hand moving up to his chin in order to support
him as he leaned over to stare at the blond haired boy.
Dropping a plate before the black and red hedgehog, Matt settled
down with one for himself, handing over some chopsticks with a
smile. "Just a little something I cooked from leftovers I found in
the fridge."
Grabbing one of the chopsticks, Shadow stared down at his food with
narrowed eyes, finally moving down one of the chopsticks to poke at
it in a testing manner before staring up at Matt. "Hey, Is the meat
supposed to have that green color?"
Meanwhile Sonic stood in front of the theater with Tai next to him.
He played with his coat. "What taking her so long?" he asked as his
coat roll in his hand. "I mean she doesn't need this much time to
look great."
"Complaining will not help," Tai said, "Even if you do tell the
truth."
Mimi and Amy came running up to them. "Sorry we're late," Mimi said.
"There been slower people in front of us. Let's go in."
Following after the two girls, Tai and Sonic both looked up at the
wall of movie posters showing what was currently being shown at the
place. "So, what are we going to see?" Came the hesitant question
form Tai as he stared in horror at a pink movie poster about some
love drama movie that would be shown in 10 minutes.
"I could really go for Street Wars 3 you know, I hear they blow up a
while parking lot of super sized trucks in it." Sonic proclaimed as
he nearly drooled at the sight of the movie poster for it, several
nice explosions behind the lead actor.
"Too bad we choose to see their movie," Tai said, "but they agreed
to see a move of our choosing tomorrow."
"I hope they like explosions," Sonic said as he walked into the
theater.
In the park, Kari watch as Cream made a ring of flowers. Soon she
drop her head back down to let the sun warm her, a habit that
Gatomon got her into. "Are you sleepy Kari?" Cream asked walking up
to her partner.
"No," Kari said, "I'm just sun bathing." Just then they heard a
buzz. "What's that?" Kari and Cream moved to the sound to see TK and
Tails looking up at a small plane. "I say we say hello."
"I second that." Kari added in as she began to walk forward, her
eyes growing wide as she spotted someone else walking into the park
as well. "It's Davis, what's he doing here?"
Walking calmly towards the blond haired boy, Davis grinned as he
stopped in front of them. "Hey TK, Tails, you two out for some fresh
air as well?"
"Nope, we're testing my new model plane, the Tornado II. Named so
because it looks like the real model did." Tails boosted as he
greeted Veemon who had jumped out from Davis's backpack, the blue
dragon like digimon staring at the small plane flying above them.
"Pretty neat huh?"
Giving a nod in agreement, Veemon stopped as he gave a puzzled look
at the two tailed fox. "You said it looked like the real Tornado
did, so what happened to it, you crashed into the ground or
something?"
"No," Tails yelled, "It just in my normal world."
"Can I fly," Veemon said reach for the control. He grabbed it. Tails
watch the plane tilt to the ground. Tails grab the control and tilt
the plane up but he still had to watch the model fly through a tree.
"You hit a tree," Veemon said, "You suck at flying."
Tails handed the controller to TK before running after the blue
digimon. Davis watched TK fly the plane. "You're good," Davis said
over his laughing partner. "Have you done this before?"
"Never," TK said, "I guess Tails gave me his flying skill."
Cream whispered to Kari, "Do you still want to talk to them?"
Taking a deep breath, Kari gave a short nod, as she stood up, her
smile a bit weaker then before. "I can still talk to them, I just
hope they don't get into a fight again."
Taking a step forward, she stopped as she spotted Veemon and Tails
running right at her, none of them having noticed her standing in
their path. "Hey, Look out!" Her cry coming a bit too late as first
Veemon, then Tails crashed into Cream, sending all three tumbling
into a bush.
"Cream," Kari said. She the bush from her view, There Veemon was
laughing at Tails and Cream
"I guess I'm it," Veemon laughed out.
"Hey Kari," TK said as Kari help the other to their feet. "What are
you doing here?"
"We were in the park picking flowers when we saw you. So you got a
plane?"
TK nodded and turned back to the plane. The plane was moving to a
tree. A few leaves where cut off before TK was able to ready the
plane to land.
Meanwhile Izzy smiled. "Got them," he yelled.
"You know where the emeralds are," Mighty said pausing his push-ups.
"No, but I have a list places that they should be," Izzy said, "I
tell the others."
Inside the movie theater, both Sonic and Tai were staring in a half
coma like state as a very sappy girly type movie was being shown.
While at the same time both Mimi and Amy was paying very close
attention to it.
But while Tai were halfway into a coma like sleep along with Sonic,
the blue colored hedgehog weren't completely ready to give up. There
had to be something going on that could save him from such a boring
movie.
Sonic continue to search for a way out when a drip hit his head. He
looked up to see Tai eyes closes and drool drip from his mouth.
Sonic looked up at the ceiling. Soon his eyes closed as well.
"Wake up," Mimi yelled, "You missed the movie."
"Sorry," Tai said, "It got boring but the next one won't be."
"What next one?" Mimi asked.
"You promise to see a movie of my picking after your," Tai said.
"Well, I didn't pick it, but Sonic did," Tai said with the blue
hedgehog smiling.
"Look," Mimi said pulling out her d-terminal, "Izzy has a new
mission."
"Too bad," Tai said gripping Mimi's arm as Sonic did the same for
Amy. "Lets get the tickets."
Half an hour later had Tai and Sonic staring in completely joy as a
rather messy and loud gun fight played out on the screen, bullets
flying everywhere as another explosion ripped through the
background.
Next to them, both Mimi and Amy had a horrified look at the level of
violence in the movie, wishing that the power would be cut so they
didn't have to watch the remaining part.
Later they walk from the theater. "That was great," Tai said, "Worth
that movie before," he said.
"I can't believe his wife try to blow him up him ten times," Mimi
said.
"She was kidnapped," Sonic said, "Brainwash and sent to kill him. It
was a plan of Shad Com to stop him before he could find out what
their master plan was all about."
"I think the first movie alone would be a good but the last movie
ruin it," Amy said.
"What do you mean by that?" Sonic asked turning to face Amy. Just
them Amy trip and Sonic and Amy lips press into each other.
"I didn't need to feel that." Tai muttered out as Sonic and Amy
stepped away from each other, Sonic having a rather light blush on
his face before he ran off as fast a she could, Amy staring after
him with a dazed expression, her cheeks lit up with a heavy blue
clearly seen through her fur.
Tai, still feeling the aftermath of the kiss through his link with
Sonic, lifted up a hand to rub his face when he froze. If he could
feel that, then his link with Sonic was growing. "If she get a kiss,
then so do I." Feeling his thoughts get interrupted, Tai found
himself facing Mimi who was dragging him in for a kiss.
Away Sonic stop once more. He tried to push the fur on the back of
his neck down. Amy ran up to Sonic, who was still trying to recover
from the ghost kiss. "Hey Sonic how about we go to Tai's place?"
"Sure," Sonic said. He scoop Amy up and ran away. They enter the
apartment to see Tai and Mimi already there. "I guess were not the
only one that had this ideal. Sonic." Amy placed her head on Sonic's
shoulder. "Can I be you girlfriend."
Sonic turned to see Amy's puppy dog eyes. "I...I..."
"So this is where you two have run off to." Knuckles interrupted as
he landed on the balcony, a lightly ticked off expression on his
face as he glared at Sonic. "Never mind, there's trouble in the
digital world again."
Clenching one fist at those words, Sonic glared right back at
Knuckles as one name ran through his mind. "Eggman."
Nodding, as he turned around halfway, he stared at both of them with
a more serious expression then before. "We don't know how, but his
metal copies are heading right towards Gennai's house, and the final
emerald."
"Come on," Sonic yelled.
Meanwhile in the Digi-World, Eggman watch his metal digimon copy
make their way to the emerald. He smiled that they were going as
they were ordered to. He had each movement planned so that he could
keep an army hidden as they follow. "Come you blue mess," Eggman
said, "Come face an army too big for you to take."
Arriving in the digital world, Tai and Sonic stared as part of the
horizon seemed to be alive with the number of Eggpawns moving
towards them, and above then many robots, they could clearly see
Metal-MegaKabuterimon and Metal-Zudomon marching in front of them.
"Hmm, seems the odds are a bit unfair this time around."
"You think so Tai, we'll need an army of out own to beat them." Joe
moaned out as he gave up counting the robots, settling instead for
wondering if they couldn't just take the damn gem with them back to
earth.
Stepping up in front of the group, Matt grinned as he held up his
digivice. "Calm down Joe, we got four partners who can go to the
mega, and Imperialdramon to assist us." Ignoring the annoyed comment
mumbled out by Davis in response to his rant, Matt grinned. "You
ready Shadow, it's time to stop those metal copies for good."
"This should be easy," Shadow said before be became mega. He smiled
as he fly into a swarm of the robots.
Nearby Cream became Celestial Angewomon. "Cream," Kari said as
dozens of robots encircled them. "I think we need more power."
"I'll try," Cream said. "Celestial Angewomon digivolve to..." He
body shrunk down to where she was in her normal body but for her fur
was all white with blue eyes. She only wore a golden robe.
"Angecreamon." Cream looked around at the robots as they rush at
her. "Great shield." The robots stared as a glass wall formed around
Kari and Cream. The robots continue to rush them only to have the
wall shred them.
Backing off, Big and Joe stared in muted surprise, as Metal-Zudomon
seemed to pick them out of the large group of humans, furries and
digimons, his red eyes glowing as he began to march right towards
them. "I think you should digivolve again Big, all the way if you
can!"
Nodding in surprise, it didn't take long for Big to reach his
ultimate level, his sword gleaming as he held out in front of him.
"I'm ready." As he spoke, light flowed away from Joe and entered
into his body. "Servalmon digivolve too Oncillamon!"
Flexing the muscle of his leaner and more muscled body as he
finished digivolving, Big grinned as large golden colored claws shot
out form each fingertip. "Don't worry Joe, this time, we can't
lose." Jumping up and doing a small roll in the air, he just stared
as he faced several Egg-pawns and Metal-Zudomon head on. "The
Emperor's Claws!"
Izzy stood next to Mighty as he too had robots trying to over power.
"Hey Izzy can I greet a powerful as I can?" Izzy nodded. With power
given by Izzy, Mighty become a mega. "So this is what its like to be
mega." He was still human in shape only now he had large black
wings. Heavy black plates cover his body. "Armordramon, nice. Shield
fist," Mighty yelled. His fist passed through one of the robot
easily.
Meanwhile Tai stand next to Sonic in his ultimate form. "Okay," Tai
said, "We may have failed for you to become Mega, but we can take
them out." Sonic nodded.
Turning to face an oncoming group of Eggpawns, Sonic grinned as he
began to gather up power to attack with. "Ready or not, here I..."
"Chaos Sword!" Ripping through the robots with ease, Shadow glared
at Sonic as he gave a mocking smirk at him. "I'm sorry, but I
thought I'd just drop by and help out the weak one before you lost,
but now, I think it's time I took on one of the main fighters!"
Glaring death after Shadow as he shot up into the air to confront
Metal-MegaKabuterimon, he clenched up one hand and faced the other
Eggpawns moving towards him. "Shadow, I'll make you eat those words,
do you HEAR ME!" Rushing forward, he didn't bother with his
special attacks, settling for punching and kicking his way through
the robots.
Sonic came closer to Metal-MegaKabuterimon, the Metal copy turned
and yelled, "united Digi-Disk attack" He form the strange energy
into one attack. Sonic try to run from it but easily chase him down.
The blast force Sonic into many robots. Then Metal-MegaKabuterimon
walked to the blue hedgehog. "Since the other Metals lost, we've
been adding more digi-disks to yourselves. Now, I'm too powerful for
you level."
"Leave the weakling alone," Shadow said, "I'll show you power."
Turning all of his attention onto Shadow, Metal-MegaKabuterimon
began to power up of his own attacks as the hedgehog came closer to
him. "Giga Hornblaster!" The power finally shooting off in the form
of a thick, red blast of electric power that ripped through the air.
Shooting off to one side, Shadow growled as the power shot right
past him, it's level of strength more then enough to leave him with
a light feeling of shock as he saw it rip open a large hole in the
ground at it impacted. "Such, power, he's much more powerful then
before."
Then he smirked as golden colored energy flowed into his hand. "But
it doesn't matter, cause I have too, and here's a new trick I just
came up with." Snapping around, he glared up at the metallic form of
Metal-MegaKabuterimon. "Ultimate Chaos Spear!"
As he spoke out the words, the sky above Metal-MegaKabuterimon began
to brighten as golden energy flowed together to form a large, spear
like chaos blade.
"A light show won't hurt me," Metal-MegaKabuterimon yelled. "Giga
Hornblaster!" His attack flew at the mega Shadow. The attack only
passed the space where he once were. "Where did he go?"
"Right here," Shadow told the back of Metal-MegaKabuterimon. "Bye."
He jab his blade through the metal digimon and then rotated the
blade cutting the robot in haft.
Meanwhile Tai return to the other Digi-destined with Sonic in his
arms. "Is he okay?" Mimi asked running to Tai.
"I think so," Tai said, "His pride is hurt more than anything. How
is the fight going?" Tai waited for Mimi to finish a robot with her
piko piko hammer.
As she stepped back from the crushed robot, she grinned a bit as she
looked out over the battleground. "You know, I don't think we could
have won a battle like this with our old partners, at least not so
easily."
Tensing as her words made him think of Agumon, Tao opened his mouth
to answer when he instead growled as he turned to face the direction
of Gennai house, a faint whisper of anger and hatred flowing through
his head.
In his arms, Sonic opened his eyes and glanced up at the sky, as it
seemed to crack above them as the same voice ran through his head in
a much louder fashion. "It's Metal."
Even as he finished talking, the air seemed to split as a loud
explosion rocked through the area, several robots getting destroyed
along with the surrounding area.
And coming through the crack in the sky, were a large familiar
robotic dragon, its red eyes gleaming as it fired off another attack
right down at Gennai's lake.
But what really drew in Sonic and Tai's attention was the robot
standing on the back of the attacking Metal-Overlord, it's body
still as slim and deadly looking as the last time they had seen it.
Only this time around, he was around along with the Metal-Overlord,
and fighting with it to destroy Gennai's house and lake.
Tai handed Sonic to Mimi. "I need to get the chaos emerald," Tai
said. He took a deep breath and rush at the lake.
Moment later Metal-Overlord watch the water exploded. He stopped his
attack and chased after the blur. He flew over the battlefield. "You
think that you can hide from me in the scrap," Metal-Overlord said.
The remains of Metal-MegaKabuterimon rose up to Metal-Overlord. Soon
other pieces started to follow.
"Just you watch, now that my will is my own again, I'll get revenge
on all of you, Eggman and that moron Datamon included." Curling up
as arcs of power swept across his body, Metal-Sonic began to laugh
as the remains of Metal-Kabuterimon began to fly in closer to him.
"Yes, now welcome my newest form, Metal-Knight!"
Slamming into the ground in a much larger, and more human like form,
Metal-Sonic grinned as he flexed his new arms. "Ah, and all of those
digi disk that metal copy had, are now a part of me as well, my
strength is now greater then before."
Holding up a hand, dark laughter filled the air as raw energy began
to form into a sphere shaped ball of red and Black energy. "Taichi
Yagami, let's see if killing you with this super combined attack
will kill Sonic as well, Dark Meteor Blaster!"
Lashing out as the energy went off, Metal-Sonic continue to laugh as
the every ripped across the ground towards the messy haired human
boy, the ground getting torn up from the force of it passing by
alone.
Tai started to run. The attack hit the ground behind him. Tai found
hit off the ground and bounce off it. When he stopped he open his
eyes to see the emerald ten feet away. "Amy" Mimi said, "get Tai."
Metal-Sonic land and move to Emerald only to have Shadow block his
way. Metal-Sonic smiled and said, "I'm going to enjoy this pay
back." Metal-Sonic grabbed Shadow in a choke hold with one fist and
started to beat him with his other fist. He was only stop by many
attacks hitting him.
"This got more fun," Metal-Sonic said as he got back to his feet.
"Come on all of you after all I want a fare fight."
Rushing forward with an attack getting yelled out, all of the
digivolved furries and digimons poured everything they had into it.
Only to scream as a shockwave ripped through the air, Metal-Sonic
laughing as an ever-growing sphere of mixed up digimon attacks
ripped out from him.
As the attack died down, Metal-Sonic grunted as he felt the
Metal-Kabuterimon parts fall off, his normal body glowing a bit as
he tore the chaos emerald up form where it had landed. "I almost
forgot that, my ultimate attack is to powerful or me to control
right now, but when I have all seven emeralds, that will change."
He rush forward and made a strike on Shadow. The weak strike got
Shadow off balance giving Metal-Sonic the moment that let him get
emerald. Using the extra digi-disk gather from the remains he easy
dodge the attacks as he made his way to freedom.
"I'll be back after I gather the other emeralds," Metal-Sonic ran
away.
"This isn't good," Tai said, "I say we get to a nice place to rest
and ready ourselves for the fight."
"You can," Matt said, "We're taking care of him."
"How?" Davis mumbled out as he looked around at the group of
digimons and furries. "Our friends was almost blasted to bits, they
won't be able to fight him again so soon."
Rising an eyebrow at Davis comment, Izzy gazed over at Mighty
pulling himself up from the ground where he had landed. "He's right
you know, and we still have a problem to deal with." Looking over
Matt's shoulder, Izzy glared at the remaining Eggpawns regrouping.
"We can't lave until this battle is over."
"How true of you, sadly, we won't be able to fight like this against
you anymore." Datamon's voice added in as a small hologram of him
showed up. "Now that Metal-Sonic has turned on us, we will need
everything we have to fight him, but don't worry, we're still making
sure that you fools will die, when you face Metal-Wargreymon and
Mecha-Garurumon."
"In other word we protect the emeralds you have and the you beat us
in while we weak," Tai said, "but we have little choose."
"Tai," Mimi said walking up to him, "Sonic is still hurt and where
will Metal-Sonic go? There six all of them and he can go after
anyone."
"We split up," Matt said, "Some of us handle to get the emerald and
the rest will wait if they are need."
"I hate to agree," Tai said, "but Matt's right. I need to wait for
Sonic to get better before I can help so you guys choose who dose
what." Tai carry Sonic to a near by tree.
Huffing a bit as the two as they walked off, Rouge quickly turned to
face the others with a smirk on her face. "Well, wherever
Metal-Sonic is going, Eggman will be there since he has the other
six Chaos Emeralds."
"And really, I think it's time we took them back." Pulling Mighty
and Shadow forward, she leaned on them as she grinned at the
horizon. "And now is a better time then ever, since all of our
enemies will be to busy beating up each other."
Smiling at the comment, Tails grinned as he turned to face TK.
"She's right, we couldn't have gotten anything better then that,
sure Metal-Sonic's back, but if we get the chaos emeralds, we can
use their power to fight off both Eggman and Metal."
"I have ideals where they are," Izzy said, "I know of eight places
they could be. We should be able to get there. The other good news
is that Eggman is blocking the signal of the Chaos Emeralds."
"I'll stay here with Tai," Kari said.
"We're take as many as we can," Matt said. Shadow nodded and both
use Chaos control.
"What's his problem?" Davis asked, "Me and Ken will search that
place in the waste land."
"It's a factory so be careful," Izzy, said, "So who will go to the
other places?"
"We'll take swamp." Joe offered as he and Big stood up tall, Yolie
and Cody nodding in agreement to what he had said. Getting A
sheepish grin on his face as he looked around at the group, Joe
rubbed and through his hair. "Sorry, but we'll we need more eyes to
search that place."
Clenching up her hand and stepping forward, Sora and Rouge smirked
as they both stared right at Izzy. "Me and Rouge will check out the
forest, and when Tai and Sonic wakes up, they can check out the area
around the Yokomon village and the volcano along with Mimi and Amy."
"Look like we're going to rest for a while," Mimi said, "I say that
we get some food." She looked from her partner to Tai and Sonic
sleeping.
"Right," Amy said, "We need to keep an eye on them."
Metal-Sonic landed on the ground. He searched for any hints of the
emeralds. He look up too see one of Eggman's' cargo ship.
Metal-Sonic flew up and land onto the cargo ship. "I can ride this
to one of Eggman's base. Look like we're going to a swamp."
Entering into the swamp, Joe, Yolie and Cody stared at the large
area of water holes, large trees sticking high up into the air, and
above that, they felt the heavy, hot and damp air filled with the
smell of swamp water.
"Well, we can forget about walking in here." Joe added in as he cast
a doubtful look into a dark hole full of swamp water. "I think we
need to digivolve Hawkmon into Aquillamon and look for Eggman's base
from above."
Nodding, Cody pulled out his D-terminal and D3 as he gave a
apologetic smile down at Armadillomon sitting next to him. "I'm
sorry about this, but it would also help if we could check out the
swamp from below as well."
"You want me? To swim through that as Submarimon?" Came the
horrified response as the digimon pointed at the murky waters before
them. "Give me a break, who knows what's down there."
"Come on," Cody said.
"Hey," Hawkmon said pointing his wings up. "A craft."
"That's must be Eggman's," Joe said, "Hawkmon follow it and come
back to us."
"I'll try," Hawkmon said as he took off.
"We'll wait," Yolie told her partner.
Meanwhile Amy sat eating the food that Mimi had gathered. "I can't
believe that I'm eating so much."
"Don't worry," Mimi said, "Digimon eat a lot to keep their energy
up."
"What going on?" Sonic ask still trying to wake up.
Turning around to face him, Amy gave her best smile as she held out
a small, make shift plate crafted out of leaves. "We're having
dinner, you want some Sonic."
Eyeing the food for a few seconds, Sonic grunted as he accepted it,
casting once glance down at Tai still sleeping before jabbing him
with his elbow. "heoowwwww!" The result having him scream in pain,
while nearly doubling over as he held onto his side. "Damn, I guess
we got hurt more then I thought."
"Just rest," Mimi said, "You can't face Metal-Sonic hurt."
"She right," Amy said, "The others are trying to stop him."
"They may need my help," Sonic said, "I've dealt with Metal-Sonic
before."
"With you hurt you'll just get in the way," Mimi said.
"I stay," Sonic said as he took some food.
Meanwhile Hawkmon flew back to the group "I know where the base is,"
he said, "I'll digivovle and carry you there."
"Yes," Armadillomon said, "I don't need to go into that muck."
"I think you might need to do that anyway." Joe mumbled out as he
cast a dark look up into the air, his eyes spotting a group of
robots flying up from further inside the swamp. "Hawkmon, did you
set off a trap?"
Looking rather confused for a moment, Hawkmon let out a small cry as
he grabbed Yolie and dragged her down. "Everyone down, I think the
reason just showed up." Pointing up with one wing, the digi destined
stared in shock as the huge body of the Metal-Overlord flying right
towards the base. "That can't be good, if he's here, then
Metal-Sonic might be coming here too."
"We'll ride Submon," Joe said, "We should be able to get close with
out being notice. If we're lucky then I won't get spotted."
They rode the sub digimon for a little bit before that came to large
piece of land. The trees around shaken by the countless blasts.
Unable to speak over the explosion, Joe just gestured for them to
come with him.
They came to a factory cover in burnt holes. Luckily on was close to
them. They slip through it and into the factory. After looking down
the both ends of the hall, he turned to Yolie and Cody both as
clueless as him.
Seeing that he wouldn't get any suggestions from them, Joe turned
back around and sighed, the thought of flipping a coin to decide
briefly flashing through his mind.
Thankfully, another choice was presented as the left hand corridor
suddenly lit up with a fiery blast of destruction. "What, Everyone
back up!" Pushing back, and dragging Yolie and Cody with him, Joe
stared as the one thing he didn't want to see stepped in through the
still burning hole. "It's him, Metal-Sonic."
"Lets hope he didn't see us," Yolie said.
"Where will the fat while place the emerald," Metal-Sonic yelled.
Then there was another explosion.
"We need to get moving," Cody, said, "Metal-Sonic won't stop until
he gets the emerald."
"How about we search the best shielded area," Cody said.
"Good idea." Yolie muttered out as the sound of more explosions
filled the air, bits of metal flying past their location. "And let's
make sure he's on the other side of the shield."
Simply nodding, Joe and Cody quickly retreated down the corridor,
making sure to stay in the shadows.
Slowly they continue to walk down random halls until they came to a
hall with robots guarding a larger door. "I think we found it," Cody
whispered while they hid.
"Metal-Sonic will need to fight them," Yolie said, "We slip in and
take it then."
Even as she finished talking, she gave a small scream as a blue
colored blur ripped right through the wall and into the room.
Several robots getting torn in half as Metal-Sonic lashed out with
his claws and the random digimon attack.
"There's our cue." Joe mumbled out as he walked along the wall,
making sure he always had at least one eye on Metal-Sonic. "Okay,
think you can get us into this place Yolie? I'm not so good with
hacking my way past a security door."
"I should be able to," Yolie said, "Izzy gave me some lessons." Just
then the doors open. "Emperor Eggman, He was ego problems." the
group slipped into the room. The room was round with many columns
around the podium that held the emerald. "So now what, we're in the
chamber but I don't know if we can get out of here since there is
only one door.
"We don't need to do anything," Joe said walking to the emerald.
Near the Emerald was a metal box. "If the is the metal that block
the Emeralds power then I say we drop the emerald into it and we hid
hoping Metal-Sonic thinks that it is a decoy."
"Worth a try," Cody said. With the little time they had the hid in
the shadow of a column. Joe held the box with the emerald in it.
Ripping through the wall, Metal-Sonic glared, as he found nothing
but an empty room on the other side. The place where he would have
expected the emerald to be was just empty. "Hmm." Taking a step
further into the room, he glanced down and smirked as he spotted a
bit of dirt left on the clean floor. "Well, I guess Eggman must have
hid them somewhere else then."
Turning around to leave, Metal-Sonic grinned inside of his head as
his systems picked the movement of three humans and one furry and
two digimons from the shadows. "You just keep onto that one for me
brats, and I'll take it away from you when the time comes."
Ripping through the walls until he was outside again, the robotic
hedgehog glanced out over the digital world as his map program
pointed out the next five places the emeralds could be at. "Now, for
the desert factories."
"That was close," Yolie, said, "We need to warn Davis and Ken that
Metal-Sonic is coming their way."
"Lets get out of here so the single can get to them," Cody said.
They step out trough the hole Metal-Sonic made. The sunlight lit the
remains of robots.
"Some strange about this," Joe said.
"What do you mean this is a normal day," Gomamon said.
"These robots have digi disk in it," Joe said, "There should be many
confused digimon or Metal-Sonic took them."
"He'll be even more powerful," Cody said.
Rejoining Metal-Overlord in midair, Metal-Sonic grinned as he tested
out how much power he had gained from claiming the digi disks from
Eggman's robots. "Still, I will be even more powerful, after all of
this."
Casting a look at his map, he would have given a frown as he noticed
the number of robots moving to prevent him from reaching the desert.
Or was it really a problem. "Sonic, I think you could use some
training, I trust you won't mind if I send some playmates to over to
help you." Holding up the emerald he had already gained just after
his return to the digital world, he grinned as he pressed it into
his chest plate, feeling it as it became a part of it. "Get ready
wherever you are."
Sonic stood up and stretched. "I feel great. A little rest and food
and I'm ready to a fight," he said, "Where to?"
"The volcanic zone," Mimi said.
"Eggman dose use volcanoes for power," Sonic said.
"Sonic," Amy said as the group started to walk, "I've notice that
you react to Tai's pain. Why is that?"
"I don't want to talk about it," Sonic said.
"I a notice it as well," Mimi said, "Come on tell me."
"Like Sonic said," Tai said.
"Please," Mimi said as she made her puppy eyes.
Staring a ther for a second, Tai simply snorted and turned his head
halfway around. "Nice try Mimi, but you're forgetting that I have a
little sister." Smirking as he saw her confused expressing, he
crossed his arm in triumph. "I'm immune to that feminine trick of
yours now, thanks to Kari using it so many times I can overcome your
even if you have only used it once."
Giving him an annoyed look, Mimi turned completely around and let
out a grumping sound as she cast a look over at Sonic. "So, you're
immune huh?" Smirking as she advanced on the blue colored hedgehog,
she let out a small chuckle. "Well, I wonder if Sonic is, and trust
me, between me and Amy, he won't stand a chance."
"Lets get to work," Sonic said, "I'll go around the volcanic zone
and return to show you Eggman's place."
"I'll come with you," Tai said.
"I trough you said you were immune," Sonic said as the two ran off.
Meanwhile Metal-Sonic smiled as Metal-Overlord sent out small
robots. "We just sit back and wait for the digi-brats to get the
emeralds together in one place. I just need to block there way
home."
Rushing across the digital plains, Both Tai and Sonic sighed as they
thought about the rather, forward advances from the two pink loving
females. "Geez, you'd think they had something better to do then bug
us all the time."
Nodding a bit at the comment, Tai slowed down as he glanced towards
a nearby volcano. "I know, can't they at least wait until we done
saving the worlds." Staring even harder, he turned his head halfway
around to face Sonic. "Is it just me, or do you something moving
around the volcano as well."
Turning his attention towards it, Sonic bleached as he stopped up,
his eyesight being better, he quickly recognized the shapes as they
came closer. "I don't believe it, more Metal-Sonics? And is that
Vulpmon running away from them?"
"Great another headache," Tai said. "Come on we need to save him."
Vulpmon lead the group into a small island of trees. The he jump
onto a tree branch. "My glowing stones," he told through his mask.
"I enjoy this game but my guest are coming. I thank you for your
help but I must get ready for them."
Tai and Sonic came to the small clearing. There were the remains of
the Metal-Sonics. "Welcome my favorite playmates," Vulpmon said.
"It's almost time. You just need a push." He dropped a glowing stone
on the ground. "I'll be back for the payment."
"I still don't understand him," Sonic said.
"You not the only one," Tai said, "Whatever it is he wants, it's not
the Emeralds." Tai walk over to the glowing stone.
Reaching down to grab, he stopped as a green glow erupted from it,
followed by a similar one form his right pants pocket. "What the?"
Even as he spoke, the other stone they had gotten from Vulpmon long
ago rose out of his pocket. "What are they doing?"
Behind him, Sonic stared as the stones touched briefly, flaring up
before separating again, the new one they had gotten from Vulpmon
glowing briefly before tearing off towards Sonic, it's glow
increasing as it hit him in the chest painfully while blinding him.
The other one had done the same, except it went after Tai, hitting
him the chest as well, sending a wave of pain through him, a mental
scream of pain ripping out even as he felt someone else scream out
as well.
As the pain died down, Tai and Sonic stared at each other while
panting, both of them winching as a similar thought went through
their heads. Vulpmon would pay for that.
And as one, they both looked up and stared at each other even harder
as both of them pointed a shaking finger at the other one. "Was
that, you?"
"Great," Sonic said, "Not only do I share pain with you but now I
share your thoughts."
"I think it's time we seek help," Tai said, "We don't know what
Vulpmon did to us so we need to find out."
"Tell them what he share pain and though," Sonic said, "Metal-Sonic
is still out there. I say we tell them when it is safe to."
'Agree,' Tai though.
"Don't do that," Sonic yelled.
"We need to practice so we won't send every though between us," Tai
said. "Lets find Eggman base."
'Agree,' Sonic thought.
