Chapter 2: A Villainous Proposition

Somewhere a small region of the planet lays a Island Base. Large in size with masses of steel and metal, attached with giant solar panels and Wind Turbines used as seemly as a power source. Deep within the massive technologically advanced facility lays the villain Dr Eggman, Sonic's long time arch enemy with a ridiculous long moustache, bald head and glasses that seemly just sink into his eye sockets which perfectly hides his eyes in all angles. Eggman sits on his hover chair staring at a giant screen with a thinking pose with one hand cupping on his chin with one finger tapping on his upper cheek. Meanwhile his other hand on his chair's arm rest with him tapping his fingers against it.

Eggman seems troubled, while he was thinking deeply while Orbot, Eggman's Robot assistant rolls by and opens up.

"What is it now Orbot?" Eggman asked quite stressed.

"Well your stress levels have increased more than usual Boss. Even your heart rate has increased." Orbot states in his usual British accent with his robotic hands clapped together.

Eggman clearly puzzled on Orbot response turns his chair towards the machine's direction.

"Since when did you start tracking my vital signs? Nevermind. I need something for my next plan to defeat Sonic. However I need to acquire the Chaos Emeralds but once I make an attempt for them, the blue pest will get in the way either by him alone or by his friends." Eggman sighs and taps a button on his hover chair and gets off it. Nearby a coffee machine is heating up and a burger is getting made.

"The data I stole only tells me how to stabilise the power of the Emeralds and the Topaz when together in a device. But it's the matter of getting the Emeralds is the task."

The coffee is ready and the burger was made. Eggman approaches the desk and pours himself some coffee onto a mug with an image of a Egg on a frying pan with captions that says "World's Greatest Egg" He takes a sip of coffee and a bite of the burger. Just then an alarm goes off blaring down the main room and all the hallways in the base.

"Sir, there seems to be an intruder just entering from the front." Orbot explains as he puts up the security footage onto the big screen for Eggman to see, within shows the Male hooded figure from before slowly heading down the hallways.

"Can't be the blue pest. Hiding himself isn't his style. Send in the pawns!" Eggman ordered as Orbot types in on some screen.

As the figure walks down the hall a platoon of Egg Pawns with their orange colour scheme with the classic Eggman grin molded on the mouth area. They block the passageway with laser rifles on hand.

"Huh. So this is the machines the good doctor can make? Sounds about right." The figure says smugly as the Eggpawns fire at the figure with the figure dodging them with easy and just charges at the robots at high speeds and impressive strength leaving the whole platoon in pieces leaving Eggman in shock.

"What?! He destroyed the defence squad like it was nothing!" Eggman screams as the hatch door open with the figure walking in like he owns the place.

"Knock, Knock!" The figure says as he takes Eggman's hoverchair and sit so it in dark part of the room.

"Who are you?! And why did you invade my base!" Eggman screams as as he aggressively points at the individual.

"Settle down Yolk Breath. I'm actually here to help you out with the blue problem" The man says as he kicks back on the chair

"What? After the last guy I am not into trust anyone willing to assist me. You better make this pitch good! Otherwise I will destroy you for invading my base!" He exclaims with his arms cross and tapping his boot impatiently.

"Well. let's say I know my way to handle Sonic personally. You did see how I handled your mooks. And also I can help you track down and acquire the emeralds. As an example." He pulls out the blue Blue Chaos Emerald from his robes and gently tosses it over to Eggman which the scientist catchs with ease with his angry frown turns into his iconic cheesy grin which the doctor chuckles at the gesture.

"Well, Well you're doing good so far. But final question before make the decision. Who are you really? You seem to know me and Sonic like you have a history with us." Eggman asked with a concerned look on his face.

"Well don't throw yourself on a loop Eggman as you get to know me." He says with a grin as removes his hood showing his true self, however it's hidden in shadows but Eggman can see through his glasses with are technological so it sees what he is like kn the shadow with his eye sockets widen but he grins again.

"Well, Well, Well. Now this will be a fantastic alliance. It's a partnership" Eggman holds out his hand for a offer for a handshake which the other individual takes the offer and shakes Eggman's hand.

"Well where shall we begin?" Eggman asked with confidence?

"I know where the next Emerald is. And don't worry about him. I'll handle him". The individual says confidently as he grins in a sinister manner as his eyes glow showing their light blue in colour.

To be continued.
