Alright everyone. I had some extra time on my hands (Hooray for summer!), so I decided to get a start on chapter 15. Hope you all like it.
Matt awoke the next morning, lucky for him, his parents believed the fact that he was watching movies with his friends over Ashley's last night. But, something had been stuck in his head since the day he got the powers.
'How did SEGA get the info on these characters to make a game on them?' He thought. He called Nick and told him to round up the others, and meet him at the forest where the plane was landed.
"So why did you want us here at 9:00 sharp?" Josh asked sleepily.
"Yeah, I was still sleeping," Ashley whined.
"You guys, were going to take a trip to the head of SEGA of America," Matt explained.
"For what?" Emily asked.
"Well, they made the games about these characters, so they must have known something about these rings. Maybe they can help us with some things, explain things clearly, tell us secrets that we don't know, and hopefully tell us some new information that we don't know yet," Matt told them.
"I guess it's a pretty good idea, I mean, our trip to the lab last night wasn't exactly all that we were hoping for," Emily said.
"Alright so it's settled, everyone get in the Tornado!" Matt yelled. They all piled in, then realized something.
"...Matt..." Ashley started.
"Yes...?" He asked.
"How are we exactly going to get to SEGA, if we don't know where they are located...?" She asked.
"Ummm..." He hummed, trying to think of an idea.
"Don't worry about it guys, this plane has internet access on it, I can easily run a search on it, and find it out within minutes," Nick told them.
"How did you know all of this?" Josh asked him.
"I found this user's guide in a compartment, I read it last night," Nick explained.
"You have to much free time," Matt joked around. But Nick was right, within minutes they knew exactly were they were headed, and set off.
"It should take about and hour and a half guys, so just sit back and chill, I got it set to auto pilot," Nick told them, once in the skies.
"So, you guys think of anyone to ask to the dance? It's in a few weeks," Emily asked them.
"I'll prob ask one of th girls in my class," Josh answered. He was pretty smooth with the ladies. If there was someone he liked, he could most likely get them without hesitation.
"I probably won't ask anyone," Nick said.
"Good idea, save yourself the embarrassment for when they say 'no'," Ashley joked.
"Haha, very funny," He responded.
"I might ask this one kid in my French class," Emily told them. Matt was the only one who hadn't talked during the conversation. As much as he hated to admit it, he was extremely shy when it came to girls. If there was a girl he liked, he wouldn't even be able to talk around them.
"So what about you Matt?" Ashley asked.
"Uh, I don't even plan on going to the dance," He told them.
"Come on Matt, it's the first dance of the year," Josh said.
"Yeah. And it's only October, we will have plenty more," Matt said.
"I'm not joking when I say this, but why don't you ask Bree?" Ashley asked.
"Ha, like she would ever say yes to me," he answered.
"Matt, you have been in love with this girl since 6th grade, just ask her to the dance, and see what she says. Just remember, the worst thing she could say is no," Emily reassured him.
"Yeah, yeah," Matt said. He couldn't wait for the subject to change. For some reason, he did not like talking about girlfriends, dances, or love in general to anyone. After about an hour and a half, the reached the head building of SEGA of America.
"Well guys, there it is," Matt said.
"Lets park this one the roof, and get in from there," Josh said. Nick did as suggested.
"Lets go in trough the door," Emily said. They walked all the way down to the bottom floor, and over to the main desk.
"Uh Miss, we would like to speak with the head of SEGA please," Matt told the secretary.
"Your...Sonic the hedgehog..." She said, looking shocked.
"Good eye, now can you please let us in?" Ashley said, impatiently.
"Uh...I'll see what I can do," She said. She got on her phone and dialed a number. "Sir, I have the actual Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends here, they would like to have a word with you," She said, still puzzled as to why they were there. She hung up after getting a response. "Top floor, first door one your left."
"Do you guys think that this could be a trap?" Emily asked.
"Yeah, maybe the government is up there waiting for us," Nick said nervously.
"And if we are, we show them what were made of," Matt said. They walked up all 32 flights of stairs, and finally reached the room.
"Hello?" Josh said as they all walked in.
"Good morning Sonic and Co," The man spoke. They were relived that it was not the government commander.
"What does everyone refer to us as Sonic and friends, or, Sonic and Co?" Ashley asked annoyed.
"I'm terribly sorry, my deepest apologies," The man answered.
"We have a few questions for you," Matt spoke.
"Please, sit," the man told them. They did as told. "Now, what is it, that you all wanted to see me about?"
"Well sir, we understand that you are the head of SEGA?" Josh asked.
"SEGA of America," the man corrected him.
"Whatever, anyways, we were hoping that maybe, you could answer some questions that we have," Josh finished.
"Ask away," he answered.
"Alright, well, do you have any connection to a certain Gerald Robotnik? Not the one from your games, but the one in real life," Matt asked.
"I knew this day would come..." the man said to himself. "Yes, I did now Gerald Robotnik, he was a wonderful man, before the incident."
"What is this incident?" Nick asked.
"That is not important right now, but please, why do you need to know if I knew him?" The man asked.
"Well, we want to know how you guys got your information on the characters, it's clear to see that these powers were created before the games.
"Well, you see, Gerald and I go way back. He came to me one day about 50 years ago, and asked me if I could create a video game for him. The video game became the long running Sonic games that everyone knows and loves today. He didn't want the people to be scared when these powers were put out to the public. He thought that the game would make people understand a little bit more," the man explained.
"Then why was the game made only 15 years ago?" Matt asked.
"He explained to me terrible things that would happen in the future, I wanted to make the game close to those events, so people would really get a feel for everything," he told them.
"I see, and how come we have encountered a monster that was from one of your games? Aren't the games fiction?" Nick asked.
"Well you see, we based our more recent game on things that Gerald said would happen," he explained. "But, that doesn't mean that he was correct. Just then, an explosion broke the wall. And none other than Dr.Robotnik and chaos were there, Robotnik hovering outside the building with his craft, and chaos was, different. He was much bigger, and inside of him you could see two chaos emeralds!
"Eggman!" Matt yelled.
"Fool! My name is Dr.Robotnik, although, Dr.Eggman has a nice ring to it too," Eggman said.
"What are you doing here!" Ashley yelled, taking her hammer out. The man who was in charge of the company ran out of the room screaming at this point.
"What is up with that monster? It's bigger!" Emily shirked.
"That's because of the power of the emeralds! Now, hand over the one you have, and I promise, I shall not kill you...now," Eggman said.
"What are you talking about? We don't have any," Matt told him.
"My radar tracked it down to this location, so hand it over!" Eggman screamed. Josh then knew what it was, he looked at his watch and gulped.
"Bring it on Egg-head!" Ashley yelled at him.
"Chaos, attack!" He screamed. People were starting to evacuate the building now. Chaos (2) started toward them. Matt jumped up into a ball, and zoomed at his head.
"The weak point is his head, it must be because of his brain!" Matt told the others. Josh through some punches at it, Nick swung his two tails at it, Ashley gave it a good whacking at, and Emily even kicked him a few times. Within minutes Chaos was down.
"Grrr...It seems that two emeralds is not enough to defeat you pests, no worry," Eggman said as he pushed a button on hover craft, a scanner came out that scanned all of the teens. Then his robotic arm on his machine grabbed Josh!
"Help!" Josh yelled. He couldn't brake free.
"So, you're the one that has the emerald, You will hand it over to me, if you want to live!" Eggman said flying away.
"We have to stop him!" Matt yelled. He grabbed onto Nick's feet, and Ashley did the same with Emily's, they then started flying off in the direction Eggman took off...
Well, I hope you all liked it. But the whole thing about how SEGA found out about all the information was an idea from playstation14. Lets give him a big round of applause. (claps hands). So, you know the routine...REVIEW
