Well, I got the three reviews (from the same guy, but reviews nonetheless; try to submit yourself if you can), so here's episode 22.
Last time on Weresheep X, The Blue Typhoon, manned by Chris, Bignut, RAIman and FlamingStickGuy, joined the Dragoon in orbit above Ravnica. Nike and Nate, my flat mates, had also snuck aboard the ship, not really knowing that was what I had wanted in the first place. And yes, Nick is based off of one of my friends of the same name, appearance, except for his accent and age. Also, Nick is Japanese in real life. It's noticeable. Anyway, Sonic was still in the slimy tentacle of the Queen Parasite.
Still in the tentacle of the Queen, Sonic fought hard just trying to breath. Tails and Big had to come up with something. And damaging the computer was not it. It seemed to not hinder nor help anyone, though Sturm still seemed angered.
Tails didn't know how to destroy it, but Sonic did. If only he had a way to..."Big, do you have anything we can use to help Sonic?" asked Tails, "Anything that can reach him or distract that monster!"
The cat checked his fishing box thing (forgot what those were called, I haven't fished in a while) but found nothing. Seemingly giving up, Big just shook his head. Now what?
Tails checked his own person for anything useful (yeah, I know. Naked animals with pockets. This is possible, actually. I'm so NOT getting into that, though). Left pocket, nothing. But right pocket...
He felt a lump there. Tails certainly didn't remember putting anything at all in his right pocket. He reached into it and felt around. It was a crystalline shape, and radiated a little amount of warmth: The Gies Stone! 'Anth must have slipped it into my pocket when we left Spaceball 1!' Tails thought. Just as Tails was formulating a plan, however, the Queen began to loosen her (I don't like to call animals "its" unless I get lazy) grip on Sonic only slightly.
Sonic knew what it was doing and he managed to say, "T-Tails! Big! Look out!...It's-It's using magic!"
Tails looked at Sonic. "What? Magic?"
An aura appeared in and around the Queen. A grey-ish aura. It was using magic alright, and it was going to be very powerful if this was truly a Queen.
Shieldaga!
A massive, transparent, white shield of sorts covered Sturm and the main body (though not the head) of the Queen, protecting it's exposed Miasma spouts. When it comes to Queens, as their names may suggest, they produce eggs. Their exposed spouts are a lot softer and more vulnerable then the average Meteor Parasite, whose spouts are rock solid. This is because the Queen is, like humans, comprised mostly of not blood, but a sort of "Space Milk" for the eggs. Parasites sometimes have to wait for about 100 years before crashing into a planet, so it needs "Space Milk" to keep it nourished during it's sleep. A good trade off is that the Queen is larger, has more powerful magic, and it's weak point (serpent-like head thing) is armored, making the thing tough.
Sonic leaped at the chance of escape. The Queen was distracted from using the spell and Sonic spin dashed out of her grip, slicing the tentacle and releasing her bodily fluids. And all over Sonic in the process. :).
Landing on the catwalk (and noticing that he got slathered), he looked down on himself.
"Uugh, I've been slimed!" Sonic licked his lips. "Mmm! Vanilla!" Tails and Big made disgusted faces. Regardless, the Queen began to launch it's assault. The head stared at Sonic for some reason. The mouth of the beast opened and Tails sensed a force beginning to generate at her mouth.
Thinking quickly, Tails yelled to Sonic, "Sonic, take this!" and threw the Gies Stone to him. Just as he caught the Gies Stone, however, an invisible force knocked Sonic back, almost dropping the Gies Stone in the process. What the hell?
Sonic got back into ready position, just in case. Well, it's in case. I don't get it. Well, he prepared for it and it is coming I guess. The Queen initiated her technique again. Only this time, when she released the force, Sonic thought he saw some kind of transperant haze heading towards him. Instinctively, he move to the side--and avoided the blow!
Sonic looked at the Gies Stone in his hand, then at the Queen, then back to the Gies Stone. 'Of course!' Sonic pondered, 'The Gies Stone has cosmic power. I can see the attack that the Queen is throwing at me. And maybe I can use the other abilities of this Stone to my advantage...'
"What are you doing? Finish them!" barked Sturm. The Queen fired more of this mysterious force, but with the Gies Stone allowing him to see the distortions, he easily dodged them. After a minute, Sonic decided that he had to get on the offensive if he wanted to save Ravnica. And fast.
As if on cue, Sonic caught a glimpse of Tails making a signal he had known for years. A wink and a thumbs-up sign. Running at the direction of Sonic, Tails remarked to Big, "Get ready to run at any time, Big!" The cat nodded.
Just a few steps away from his best friend, Sonic threw the Gies Stone into the air above him, which Tails flew and caught. He remembered what I had told him about the Gies Stone 2 days ago: "If you concentrate hard enough, on two different places at the same time, you can make an astral projection of yourself to confuse your enemies. Now, on to sex ed. You and Cosmo are in a bed together..." that's when Sonic stopped listening, Tails blushed, and I think that was when Anth started to record the whole thing on a tape recorder.
But Tails got the message anyway. He tried really hard, really fast to think of two different places...but where? The Queen had +5 splash damage and area affect spells...where was I going with this? But that's when it hit him; well, almost, if Sonic hadn't pushed him out of the way of a Firaga spell.
"Yeowch!" yelped Sonic. Some of his quills had been singed. "Tails, what are you doing?" quizzed Sonic. But what Sonic was looking at wasn't Tails, in the sense, but an astral projection! Boy, did he feel pretty stupid right now. Falling for a simple trick like that.
That was just one astral projection. When in reality, there were TEN in the massive room! "Grrr, which one is it? Where are you hiding, you little brat?" demanded Sturm, "Fine then! If you won't show yourself, then I'll destroy your fat hairy...huh? Where did he go?"
I think he ran. Tails must've given Big the signal to run back to Spaceball 1.
"Arrrgh! That is enough! Destroy them all with all your might!" bellowed a now very pissed off Sturm.
The Parasite Queen now had a very shadowy and black aura around it. What the hell was it doing now?
All of the Tails in the room shouted to Sonic, "Sonic! We have to get out of here!"
'We can't get out of here,' thought Sonic, 'We have to destroy this Queen and Sturm with her. That's it!'
With his courage in his left pocket, his passion in his right, and a couple of condoms in his wallet in the secret compartment of his quills, Sonic did one final spin dash and rammed into the cord connecting the Queen's head with her body. Didn't quite work, but he persevered. The Queen had to finish the spell or it would destroy them all if left unfinished, and Tails veered her concentration with the projections.
"I'll kill you myself!" yelled Sturm. He ignited into flames and tried to ram Sonic, but the blue blur jumped over him. Sturm accidentally hit the support cords holding up the catwalk and the catwalk started to come loose.
"Game over, Sturm! The Sonic Heroes win this war!" said Sonic as he was being carried to safety by the real Tails.
"YOU WON'T GET AWAY SO EASILY, SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!" denied Sturm, "I'LL JUST SELF DESTRUCT! 5..."
"Let's move, Tails!"
"4...3..."
"Duuhhh, weeeeeee!" Big was hoisted by Sonic, now going faster.
"2...1..."
Sonic, Tails and Big just got into Spaceball 1. "PUNCH IT, ANTH!" commanded Sonic. "You got it!" was the zombie's reply.
KABOOOOOOOM! The entire inside of the meteor began to explode. None of the evil aliens could get out, so they died in the explosions and stuff. Spaceball 1 was flying through the abstract long hanger, just barely being tailed by the fire.
"I am a leaf on the wind," Anth said, "Watch how I soar!"
Spaceball 1 dodged falling wreckage and enemy spacecraft. It was then nicked by a piece of wreckage.
"Keep it steady, Anth!" said Tails. "It's ok," replied Anth, "I am a leaf on the wind."
'What's that mean?' thought Sonic.
Anth piloted Spaceball 1 as best as he could. But now it was time to shift it into it's 4th and final gear! With one great boost of speed, Spaceball 1 made it out of the meteor before it exploded.
Anth took great pride in that. "You did it, Anth!" said Tails.
"Sweet moves there, bud." congratulated Sonic. Big held on to the side, "Ohhhhh,...I'm getting dizzy..."
"How's that for a slice of fried gold!"
I don't even need to tell you who said that.
Spaceball 1 boarded the Dragoon not into open, congratulatory arms, but the sleepies of the Heroes, as it was 1:00 am.
"1 'o clock?" the flustered Sonic spake, "Tails, you should be in bed by now!" Well, a little too late for that. The little fox was already curled up and fast asleep. "Hmm...where's Blaze?"
Intercom says, "Sonic, congrats, man. Come on down to the infirmary, stat." He didn't know if it was me or what. No matter. Sonic dashed off towards the infirmary. As if out of nowhere, Selena came into the hanger of the Dragoon and carried Tails off to his and Cosmo's room.
Inside their room...
Selena layed her cousin down on his bed and covered him in some sheets. In the bed nearby was Cosmo...what the hell is she wearing? That's from MY closet! Rouge is SO going to get it now. Well, no use talking about it. It was green, see-through, and quite revealing. :P. Absolutely disturbing, I say. When she wakes up, I'm going to have a little chat with her. I need proof that Rouge did this. She kissed Tails on the cheek goodnight, "I love you, little Miles," Selena whispered and left. As she exited the room, she could've sworn she heard the same thing from Tails.
At the infirmary...
"Blaze!"
"Sonic!" (avoided who said what cuz that's confusing)
"W-what happened?"
"I stayed behind at the coliseum...I thought I could stop Eggman and Eggman Nega there..."
"Sorry, they were inside Egg Utopia. You're good...where did you get all of these cuts and bruises?"
Indeed, she was covered. Blaze's cheek (right) was swollen, the opposite sided eye was blackened, and she had to be wrapped in bandages (just like Shadow, only not so much. Her torso and down). "I thought I had it covered, but,...I was swarmed and held down by them..."
"Blaze..."
"And that bastard of a Demon Lord just stood there and watched! He was supposed to help me! But noooo! Those two robots had to come and get me out of there!"
"Take it easy! You need to rest, remember?"
"Heh...reminds me of when we first met...You remember, right? How you beat me until I nearly collapsed. I was rude...and mean to you...but still, you managed to forgive me for that. Sonic, how?"
"That speaks for itself. I like to think that there is always room for forgiveness."
"Why Sonic, you just said something wise!"
Sonic blushed. "Uhh, I-I did? Really?"
Blaze leaned over on her bed to get closer to him. "Yes. You did."
She kissed his cheek.
"Uh heh heh, th-thanks!" Sonic blushed even redder, and also, he put his hand behind his head like in typical anime.
Two heads were peeping into the room, unnoticed. Amy, the bottom one, was absolutely FURIOUS! While Nick, on the other hand, said, "Gayyyyyyyyyy..." Amy mashed him with her mallet and stormed off.
'Wait...' thought Amy, 'I still have a chance! He made a promise to me, after all...'
"Hey Sonic!" the intercom buzzed, "Glad to see you, er, I mean, hear you again!"
Sonic's ears perked up. "C-Chris! Shouldn't you be in college? Oh great. I'll be right there!" Sonic turned to his wounded girlfriend, "You may be battered and beaten, but you're still beautiful to me, Blaze. And you always will."
Nothing. She just grabbed his face and then they made out. Saw it coming.
At the bridge...
Nate looked around the bridge of the Dragoon. "Nice place, Were. So, I got a recap of this whole 'Ancient Stone' nonsense from Anth right after I 'persuaded' him to tell me by knocking his head off."
In the Captain's chair, I turned it around and looked at Nate, saying, "We're heading for the Moon Base. Turns out that the Gies Stone was the farthest away from the base. All of the others are spread out, but closer to eachother. Besides, we need people to fill in for the fallen."
Intercom came on just then. "Attention, sir," came Spock's voice, "But it would appear that Jet has just been killed by a mysterious missle that came out of a wormhole. No one cares. Not even Wave or Storm." "Copy that." I said, "As for now, Nate, we have 6 more to go. The quest has just begun."
Somewhere nearby, in the breaches of space, was the Egg Cruiser.
Ol' Egg-belly was stomping the floor in another immature tantrum.
"Ohhhh, I'll get that hedgehog if it's the last thing I do!" he retorted angrily, "and that blasted CEO, too!"
Sentinal was working on another Sonic robot in another room.
"A little twist here, a little knob there, and soon, very soon, I will have given birth to another ingenius machine!" Sentinal said, "and I still have plenty more ideas. Heh heh heh heh heh..."
However, if you thought that was bad...on an unknown, dark room, on an unknown planet somewhere in the galaxy, a very evil, serious, and vile creature of the darkest proportions sat on a metal throne of sorts. His features masked by the darkness, but 7 emeralds behind him glowed blissfully, yet could not reach him.
The only real things visible were his scythe, an evil looking one at that. It's dark radiance was frightening. But the worst were his eyes. Oh, his eyes!
They were thin and inhuman like, sort of like a demon's. But a demon he was not. He was humanoid and spoke the human tongue, but nether was he a human. What was he?
A silhouette entered the room, with the signs of a woman about her. She bowed, "I'm sorry, my master, but I bring you news. Your slave, Sturm, has died."
The creature only let out a half amused "Teh." But then he spoke. His voice, raspy and slippery. "It doesn't matter. He was only a pawn. He believed to have survived. But survive, he did not. It was only my power that gave him life again. But it would seem that he has failed me in life and death. You may leave."
"Yes, my master." she replied. The woman bowed again, her yellow eyes not blinking once. She turned around and walked out. Passing the emeralds, a purplish tail was noticeable.
"Pah. Those damn emeralds...light...I cannot use it in this useless body." the creature whispered to himself.
"But someday, I'll get a new one. A better one. And then I'll finish what I started 17 years ago."
END OF EPISODE 22, END OF SEASON 1! YAAAAAYYYYY!
Note: I will need 6 whole reviews to make my next Oneshot fic. Only 3 reviews can be from the same person. You just have to review this entire season, not just this chapter. BYE BYE! (p.s., the next Onshot will be rated M and you will like it)
