Super Smash Family part 9
"The Cold Breeze"
Sonic ran through the woods blowing pass bushes as he makes his way through the dense jungle. Sonic had gave his friends the short version of what had happened to him in the spaceship hanger. "Yeah, that's pretty much what happened," Sonic said talking into his headset.
"Wow, that's a little strange," Lucario responded.
"Yeah, it is, I know Master Hand would've informed everyone you guys were under attack. But what's weirder is how the creature got in as well," Ness commented.
"So, how go things on yalls end?" Sonic asked stopping at a cliff a large cliff side that overlooked the thicker part of the jungle.
"Well nothing here in the mountains, so far, but I just got here though," Lucario said.
"Nothing here either, but I'll keep looking around for anything suspicious," Ness said.
"Yeah nothing on my end either,"
"We better keep up searching," Lucario said. Sonic was about to cut the line when all of a sudden he started hearing a loud sound. It sounded like a small rocket taking off from a launch pad.
"Huh, what's that noise?" Sonic asked no one particular.
"Sounds like engines," Ness said barley making out the noise himself from his end. Sonic looked up and saw a group of robots fly off toward another part of the jungle.
"I think I got something," Sonic said.
"Huh, what a coincidence me to," Ness said.
"As do I," Lucario said surprised.
"So all three of us found something at the same time, isn't that just a strange coincidence," Sonic said sarcastically.
"Sounds like a trap," Lucario said.
"Well it's all we've got I'll call if something happens happy hunting you guys,"
"Good luck Sonic," Ness said.
"May you have a safe travel," Lucario said. Sonic then cut the line then jumped into the air. He landed on the tip of tree then he started running on the treetops. Sonic was running after the robots and had finally caught them. "Hey guys, where's the fire?" Sonic asked the bot. Sonic realized they looked like those robots he dealt with dearing that Solaris saga. The only differences were they were black and had two giant cannons for arms and had missiles on the side. Sonic however wasn't at all intimidated by the robots even though they had him out numbered ten to one. "Let's see how fast you are,"
"DESTROY SUBJECT: SONIC THE HEDGEHOG," the robot leader said. Sonic dove down into the forest then dashed forward. The robots were at his side charging their weapons. Sonic just smiled. The robots were trying so hard to just keep up with Sonic they couldn't keep control of themselves. All the robots had gathered behind him. Sonic looked back smiled then dashed forward out of sight. Sonic then came running back then jumped with his arms out. The robots all fired their missiles. Sonic landed on one missile and kicked another back at them, and then he raised his hand.
"Sonic Wind!" Sonic yelled. Sonic's hand started to glow then he brought it down. Sonic manipulated the wind and threw the missiles right back at them. Six of the robots fell so now four only remain. Sonic then skid to a halt then turned and continued running. The four robots followed. One of the robots got close to Sonic's backside. Sonic did a back flip slamming his foot on the robots head smashing it against the ground. Sonic then started running backwards then grabbed the robots arm then spun around once then threw it at another robot. They collided with a tree then exploded. "2 down 2 to go," Sonic said.
"FIRE MAIN WEAPONS," The leader instructed. The robots began firing rapid laser shots at Sonic from their left arm cannons. Luckily, Sonic was entering a thicket that provided good cover. Sonic swerved and weaved through the tress while the robots struggled to keep up, and the trees kept getting in the way of their attacks. Sonic then jumped on the side of one tree then another across from where he is. Sonic flew towards one of the robots he flipped forward then kicked off it knocking it into a tree. The leader was the only one left. The leader then appeared behind him putting its weapon to his head. Lucky thing Sonic can't fly, so he fell as the shot was fired. He curled into a ball then bounced right back and nailed the robot in the chest slamming it into a tree. Sonic then walked over to the beaten robot. He then looked through the robot circuits.
"Lets find out where you were going," Sonic muttered. Sonic found what looked like a radar and it was partly functioning. "Huh, that's just little farther up ahead," Sonic said looking up ahead.
Lucario looked through the mountains. "I know I felt something, so there has to be something around here somewhere whatever it was," Lucario said running around the valley in between the mountains. "This shouldn't be to hard since there are only two mountains here," Lucario had turned the corner when he felt something. He jumped back then closed his eyes. He saw strange figures around the corner he was about to turn. "Strange, these creatures have an aura I've never sensed before, it's all red," Lucario muttered. He began to ponder for a moment on what he should do next. "If the aura they produce isn't blue then they must be artificial beings of some kind," He sensed they were moving away from him, so he decided that it would be best to follow. However, he was wary of his distance. Lucario looked up at the cliff above him, and then began to quickly and quietly make it to the top then followed the group. Lucario now had his eyes open then he saw the strange creatures. "What are those things?" Lucario asked.
"There called Primids," said a voice from behind. Lucario was taken totally by surprise that he almost fell. He regained his balance and looked at the source of the voice. It was some strange being in a cloak on a floating platform.
"How is it possible that he could sneak up on me without me sensing him could he be totally artificial," Lucario thought out loud.
"What did you call them?"
"Primids, they are made of shadow bugs," The being said.
"Who are you?" Lucario asked raising his paws in a defensive position.
"I am the Ancient Minister the one in command here would you by chance be looking for this," He said showing Lucario a red Chaos Emerald.
"That's one of the emeralds!" Lucario exclaimed. Lucario's battle pose grew sterner. "Hand it over and I wont get rough with you,"
"Hmph, yeah wouldn't want that, but there is something you should know," the Ancient Minister said.
"What would that be?"
"You see the subspace army draws power from these emeralds, giving them more power, and strength then ever before,"
"So what are you trying to say?"
"You wont leave here alive as long as my army has you surrounded," Lucario had just realized he had fallen into a trap, but unfortunately it was to late he was completely surrounded by Primids. "Kill him," The Minister ordered.
Lucario raised his paw and prepared for battle. It was a game of who would make the first move. Lucario observed the blank faces of his foe so expressionless, empty, and lack of personality. Basically, it was like fighting an army of Gannondorfs. One primid finally got tired of waiting and attacked. Lucario grabbed it then turned and threw it into another. One attempted to punch him, but he side stepped it then grabbed his arm and slammed it into the ground. They all then came at once upon seeing Lucario was a formidable foe. Lucario closed his eyes as he charged into the crowd. He rushed forward as he punched a primid across its face, and then he sent aura out his foot and struck another. He grabbed another from the throat and was about to give it an aura pulse when one jumped at him from the side. Before it could be a problem Lucario spun his hand then sent an aura pulse at the primid coming from the side. With the one in front of him he performed a sweep kick, and while it hovered above the ground he knocked it higher into the air. A primid had tried to punch him, but he kicked it around its arm. Then the primid he threw in the air finally hit the ground. Lucario slammed his fist onto it making it disappear. They all just looked at him.
"Who's next?" he asked.
Ness wiped his sweaty brow. "Man it's hot," he said fanning himself with his hat. "I wonder why I chose the desert I should have went with the forest (sighs) I wonder how they're doing," he said. He then started to fiddle with his headset. "Hey guys how are things going?" he asked.
"Well-ha! Not too bad I guess I'm-ugh… heading towards an emerald now ha! Hey, back off!" Sonic said talking and fighting at the same time.
"Well-ugh! I've been better-hiyah! How are you Ness?" Lucario asked also in the middle of battle.
"Man all I got is desert," Ness complained as he heard the fighting from his friends in the background. He sort of wished he had some action right now himself.
"I thought you said you got something?" Sonic asked.
"I did, I was following this strange trail of little purple dots then I lost them,"
"Those must be the shadow bugs," Lucario said.
"Shadow what?" Ness asked.
"They're the make up of Primids," Lucario said.
"What are Primids?" both Ness and Sonic asked.
"Trust me, you'll know them when you see them," Lucario said huffing and puffing.
"Well maybe since I haven't found anything I can come support you guys," Ness said.
"I know I felt something in that area your in Ness, so take one more sweep to be sure then you can go," Sonic instructed.
"Okay," Ness said then cut the line as he sighed. "Well, better just look around… huh who's that?" Ness asked aloud as he turned around to see a figure approaching him. "Whose there?"
"Calm down Ness it's only me," said the slightly familiar voice. Ness then blinked a couple of times, and then gasped.
"Lucas, that you?" Ness asked. Ness was then blasted with a PK fire and fell to the ground.
"Yes, Ness, it's me," Lucas said finally in clear view.
"Hey, what was that for!" Ness exclaimed.
"We have unfinished business, I believe I wanted to kill you," Lucas said.
"What the-so you leave me a note, and then pull this stunt. What you're saying and doing are two different things!" Ness yelled. Lucas raised his hand then lifted Ness using telekinesis then thrust his arm forward to throw him into a rock formation. Ness left an imprint then fell to the ground. Ness pushed himself on his hands and knees. He looked up and saw Lucas right in front of him.
"Boo!" He yelled. Ness then jumped back onto his feet. He noticed that Lucas had this strange purple aura around him and his eyes were yellow.
"This doesn't seem right," Ness muttered. Lucas crouched down pulled his hands out then put them together and created a shockwave. Ness waved his hand and canceled out the attack. Lucas raised one hand in the air.
"PK Freeze!" Lucas called out. He threw the ice attack at Ness, but Ness rolled from the attack and then ran at Lucas for close combat. Ness did a spin kick, but Lucas had ducked and gathered energy in his fist then he uppercut Ness in the chin. Ness was launched into the air. Lucas then jumped up to meet him. Ness regained his balance then tried to kick him. However, Lucas twirled around his kick then meteor smashed him to the ground. Ness hit the ground, and then Lucas landed on him with his foot on his chest. "Pathetic I thought you would be better," Lucas said disappointed.
"I'm not done yet whatever you are," Ness said. Ness punched the foot that wasn't on his chest making Lucas fall over. While he was in the air Ness rolled onto his front and did a horse kick into Lucas's back knocking him higher in the air. Now on his feet Ness jumped into the air. Lucas turned his body while in the air facing Ness. Both of his hands started to glow then he brought them together and Ness did the same.
"PK Freeze!" Lucas exclaimed.
"PK Flash!" Ness exclaimed. Ness's attack was much stronger than Lucas's so it went right through it. Lucas was overwhelmed and started falling. "I'm not done yet!" Ness exclaimed. He grabbed Lucas as they fell to the ground. Ness landed fine with one hand on Lucas's arm. Lucas was still out of it so he couldn't react. Ness spun around slamming him on the ground. He jumped over him and sent down a barrage of flames out his fingers. Lucas bounced up onto his feet ready to counter, but Ness threw his yo-yo and grabbed his ankle. He pulled him back punch Lucas in the stomach making him gasp with being winded. While Ness's fist was in Lucas's stomach his hand started to glow. "PK Flash!" The blast sent Lucas flying back into a cliff. Lucas burst out of the rubble with fury in his yellow eyes. "Man he's tough, I thought he would of dropped by now…" Lucas used his PSI to pick up all the rocks around him he then motioned his hands toward Ness. The rocks went flying towards him. Ness jumped towards the boulders flying in his direction making Lucas look stun. Ness however simply bounced off each one then grabbed one boulder then sent it back at Lucas. Lucas punched it with his bare hands and made it shatter to pieces.
"Whoa, okay, if it wasn't before it is not. You are officially not the real Lucas," Ness said. Lucas came at Ness almost as fast as Sonic. He punched him making Ness sail over the ground. Ness did a back flip then skid to a halt. Lucas came again with the same pace, but this time Ness side stepped the punch then kneed him in the stomach. Lucas fell to the ground holding the spot in pain having being hit there a second time. Ness raised his hands and gathered energy for one last PK Flash. Lucas looked at him with the want to be pitied.
"Please, Ness, don't," He said exactly like Lucas's voice and changed his eyes and the aura.
"Sorry, and you know what, I just so happen to be mad at him. Pity, you decided to take his form when me and him aren't exactly on good terms," Ness said. The evil Lucas then turned back into his form then lashed out at him, but Ness had dropped his hands throwing a fully charged PK Flash. The evil Lucas was consumed by it. Then a trophy of Lucas had just appeared. "Huh, but I have his badge here…how?" Ness began but he got his answer when the trophy broke apart into the shadow bugs. "So these are the shadow bugs Lucario was talking about," He noticed that they were going out of the desert, so he decided to follow them.
Lucario was running up the path trying to get away from his pursuers. There were also Primids on the other side of the path with scopes. Lucario jumped, ducked, weaved past the attacks. Lucario then stopped then launched an aura sphere at their foothold destroying there footing. Lucario then jumped down then started running through the narrow alley. He looked behind him and saw the Primids hot on his tail. Lucario then came to a small clearing. He leaned on the wall to try and catch his breath.
"There doesn't seem to be any other way out of this," The Primids had all swarmed around him. Lucario faced them then charged without fear. He jumped kneeing on in the face, and then spun around kicking another in the face. Then he did an aura swirl knocking a few back. One had punched him in the face knocking him to the ground. Lucario was getting more and more crowded. Lucario did a sweep kick as he got on his feet. He jumped in the air firing aura spheres at the crowd. Lucario landed on the ground observing the damage. Still Primids came at him relentlessly. A Primid threw a punch, but Lucario blocked it in the inside then sent a pulse of energy threw his hand into the face of the primid. Things went from bad to worse as different type of primid started showing up. A metal primid came charging at him and tackled him into the wall. Lucario cried out in pain. Lucario cupped his hands slammed them into the back of the primid at the same time kneeing it in the chest. The metal Primid's grip loosened. Lucario griped it then spun around then threw it at the others. "I can't keep this up I need Ness in order to get out of here," Lucario muttered. Lucario then fiddled with his headset, but something was jamming his signal he couldn't get through. "I can't believe this, I fell for their trap," Lucario mumbled.
"No need to feel bad, why don't you join us, a great fighter like you will be very useful," said the Ancient Minister arriving on the scene.
"I would rather die!" Lucario growled.
"So be it, I'm sorry it must end this way," the Ancient Minister said with sadness. Just then there was a loud roar, it sounded like a ship. Lucario looked up and saw that Meta Knight's ship was heading towards him.
"Sir Meta Knight must have got his ship back I guess there's hope after all," Lucario said. Lucario had taken his attention off the Minister, so the Ancient Minister fired a laser at Lucario. Lucario was hit, but didn't suffer any real damage at all. Lucario shook his head ignoring the strange attack, and proceeded to climbing up the mountain. The Ancient Minister started firing lasers, but Lucario swiftness prevented him from being hit. He dodged left, and then right, then stopped, jumped to the side. Lucario had then managed to make it to the top looking down at his pursuers. The primids took their shadow bug forms a came up the mountain. Lucario tried drawing the ships attention. He shouted, fired aura spheres, and even threw rocks. The ship did indeed take a course toward Lucario, but not the way he expected. Lucario saw the main cannon on the ship was charging and aimed right at him. The primids had again surrounded him at the top. They all jumped on him holding him down. "Let me go!" Lucario yelled. The cannon on the Halberd had fully charged and fired at the base of the mountain. Lucario was able to get his left arm free and again called for help.
"Sonic! Ness! I'm in trouble the badge hasn't turned me into a trophy and this… could be my …end," Lucario muttered as the primids completely buried him. The mountain had completely collapsed leaving no survivors. The Ancient Minister was in the distance.
"I'm sorry…" he muttered and flew away.
Lucario's transmission had barley got through to Ness and Sonic, but it was too late. The mountain had already fallen. Sonic came to a screeching halt upon finally hearing the transmission Lucario had sent out.
"Lucario! Come in, Lucario!" Sonic yelled. There was no answer. Sonic could hear crying on Ness's end.
"L-Lucario please say something," Ness whimpered. Still there was only silence on Lucario's end.
"I can't… believe it… Lucario's… no I wont believe it," Sonic said in disbelief. Ness was still crying on the other end not really hard just a low cry. "Ness now it's super important we find Lucas, because if they could beat Lucario. Lucas could be in real danger, so we really have to pull together here," Sonic said trying to calm him down. Ness had calm him self slightly. "We have to work harder now and be more careful so I want you to keep your line open at all times and I'll do the same that way we'll be aware of each other,"
"Ok," Ness said calming down. Sonic then held his arm up and pulled up his glove a little to reveal the wrist communicator Samus gave him.
"Samus come in Samus," Sonic said.
"This is Samus, what's up," Samus said on the other line.
"Listen, I've got bad news to report,"
"Same here,"
"Well ladies first,"
"Sonic, the smash mansion was attacked!" Samus exclaimed.
"What!"
"I can't believe this," Ness said hearing the conversation.
"Yes, I had tried to contact the mansion to give a status report, and report suspicious activity. When I did the screen comes up and I see a fat, round, and mustached man in Master Hands office," Samus said.
"That sounds familiar…" Sonic said under his breath.
"He told me that Smash Manor is no more, and soon all the Smash Brothers will die. He cut the line before I could get a word in,"
"How could someone invade smash manor the security system is three times better than fort knocks?" Ness asked.
"If you ask me, it had to be an inside job. No one there could be taken surprise, unless, someone deactivated the defense system. Since the defense system blends in so well with everything no one would notice if it was off," Samus explained.
"The only one person who knows how the defense system works is Master Hand… wait you don't think?" Ness asked.
"Afraid that it may be the case Ness,"
"Do you know of any survivors?" Sonic asked.
"I think everyone got away ok, but not too sure since everyone's badges aren't really responding. Its like they've been deactivated,"
"Then that would explain it,"
"What, explain what?" Samus asked frantically.
"Lucario may be … dead," Sonic said solemnly. Samus was lost for words as she just gasped. "We must keep fighting and come together as a team in order to succeed even with whatever we have left," Sonic then heard a big boom ahead of where he was.
"Well I guess it's my turn to fight now, later Samus," Sonic said turning off his wrist communicator and dashing toward the boom. He came out of the forest into a big clearing with a lake. Sonic looked and saw a giant robot. The robot the look of a dragon without legs just a tail, long arms, with sharp claws, robotic wings, spikes going down its back, it was purple mixed with black in a striped way like a tiger, and finally the cockpit was covered with a black screen.
"He big guy what's with all the ruckus, lose a bet," Sonic said. The Dragon had turned around to face Sonic when Sonic saw something dangling in its hands. "LUCAS!" Sonic yelled.
"Sonic, you found Lucas, where are you?" Ness asked. Before Sonic could answer the dragon raised it's hand in the air and a strange sound wave started coming out. The sound waves inferred with Sonic's communication with Ness! Sonic could tell the line was cut, so it was useless to try and fix it. He couldn't run off and try and get a signal and leave the beat up Lucas behind.
"Hahahahaha quite the predicament, a Sonic," said the voice in the machine.
"That voice… isn't who I thought it was, who are you?" Sonic demanded.
"My, so soon you forgot about me Sonic, I'm hurt really I am, but I guess it isn't your fault. You're so busy with my counterpart I'm the last thing on your mind," said the voice with sympathy.
"Wait, counterpart, could that mean your…" Sonic started.
"Yes my blue friend it is I…" The cockpit is revealed "Dr. Eggman Nega!" he proclaimed.
"NEGA, but how, and why?" Sonic asked.
"Simple, I wanted to try my hand at defeating you myself, and quite frankly it's been way to easy,"
"Probably cause it's not your plan to begin with, and your not pulling the strings,"
"Hmph, I see why my counterpart is so enraged around you, you're quite rude,"
"Well, you're the third bad guy I've to deal with since I got here. What's going on is this like the bad guy Olympics?" Sonic asked.
"Well I suppose you can have this back," Eggman Nega said tossing Lucas's body to caught the blonde in his arms, and then slowly put him down. "I have already gotten what I came for, and I must say he was very persistent. Just like the ones back at the Smash Mansion," he gives a brief chuckle "And your friend Lucario. That boy there was no match for my EggDragonNega,"
"EggDragonNega huh, quite a mouthful, doesn't quite roll of the tongue to be honest. But doesn't much matter what you you're your gadgets they all look the same when they become scrap," Sonic looked at him with rage and ran towards him to engage in battle. The robot raised its right hand tried to swipe Sonic, but Sonic jumped over it, but Sonic was hit in the stomach from a laser from its wing. Sonic hit the ground with his eyes closed. He opened his eyes and saw the robot coming down on him. Sonic quickly rolled and jumped back to get more distance. The robots hand crashed into the ground then with its hand still in the ground it flew towards Sonic. It looked like it was going to strike with the hand in the ground, but it used its other hand and punched Sonic into a tree. With the hand in the ground it raised it up and sent a shockwave through the ground going towards Sonic. Sonic got on his feet on narrowly dodged it.
"Hey, you're pretty good at this Nega, not good enough to win, but good," Sonic said.
"I do my best to kill," said Eggman-Nega.
"Well ya know you need a license for that now," Sonic said.
"Well here's mine," he replied. It spread its wings out then sent out a rapid fire of lasers.
"Okay, everything just about checks out, although I was expecting a card," Sonic said as he ran right into them dodging each one that came his way. The robot lifted both hands and thrust them at Sonic. Sonic jumped over the hands then did a super spin right into the cockpit. The attack knocked it onto its back. Sonic landed on the ground and got ready for the next attack. The robot swung its tail around trying to strike Sonic but Sonic just jumped over it. The robot took to the air. It's claws then started to glow. Then it swung with both hands sending out waves of energy. 10 waves of energy toward Sonic, he jumped over 2 he then tried to out muscle 3 at the same time. Sonic barley blew through them but was taken down by another one. He sat up and looked at the last four coming at him. Sonic rolled making the blade travel across the ground. He looked back and saw it going towards Lucas. Sonic made a mad dash towards Lucas. Sonic came and kicked the attack away then spun around kicking the last two into each other. Sonic then leaped through the smoke towards the robot. The robot then swiped at him then Sonic was gone.
"Huh where'd you go?" Eggman Nega said looking around. He then noticed something blue in between the middle finger and index finger of the robot. He then realized it was Sonic. "He must have great timing in order to pull that off, very impressive," He said.
"I wonder how this happened," Sonic thought. The robots opposite hand then came together with the hand Sonic was on. Sonic did a little hop and landed on the ball fist the robot made. The robot pulled its hands apart then starting swinging at Sonic. Sonic ran up on arm, then jumped on the other as it tried to strike him then leap frog style over the hand that tried to crush him. The robot swung its arm up throwing Sonic in the air. Sonic back flipped once to regain somewhat balance. The robot's hand came fast in stabbing motion. Sonic twirled around kicked it away with his right foot then used his spin attack. With the other hand the robot caught Sonic then sent a very powerful electric shock into him. Then threw Sonic into the ground. Sonic slammed into the ground so hard he formed a small crater. Sonic looked to see the robot coming at him with its arms crossed like an X. Sonic eyes' widened. The robot unleashed it arms making an X slash attack on the ground where Sonic was. But Sonic flipped up at the very last second before the attack hit to land right in between the top of the X lines.
"Ya breaken my heart doc. I mean, the whole crazy robot thing is cool and all, but it seems you're a bit more scrambled then the Eggman I know. Believe me, that is not a compliment," Sonic said. While it was still open Sonic charged then used his spin attack slamming into the cockpit. The robot jerked back far from the impact. Sonic then jumped and grabbed the fingers of the robot and scurried up the arm.
Sonic had then made it to the shoulder. The robot regained its balance and tried to punch Sonic off, but Sonic did a back flip avoiding the attack. While the fist was still there on its shoulder Sonic rammed into its fist making it ram into the cockpit. Sonic leaped into the air as the robot started losing control spinning around. Eggman Nega had then activated the thrusters on its back allowing the robot to barley hover above the ground. Eggman Nega sighed with relief then he looked up then he turned to dread as he saw Sonic coming in head first for a dive bomb.
"HEY STOP DON'T COME ANY CLOSER!" Eggman Nega yelled.
"Sorry, I don't laws of gravity, I just follow them," Sonic smiled as he collided with the EggNegaDragon smashing it into the ground and kicking up smoke. Sonic then walked out the smoke. Sonic walked over to Lucas and bent down to check on him."Lucas you okay buddy?" Sonic asked shaking. Lucas slowly came to.
"Sonic… that you?" He asked slowly.
"Who else can be as cool as me?" Sonic asked.
"Yeah… it's you," Lucas said with a smile.
"You okay?" Lucas looked at him with sadness.
"Sonic, I'm so sorry, he took it from me. I tried to get it back, but I just couldn't I…" Lucas said while crying.
"Whoa, chill out, what happened?" Sonic asked.
"That guy… he took your emerald! I'm sorry I tried to protect it, I just couldn't, I was out numbered," Lucas cried. Sonic observed the area and saw there were many discarded robot parts lying around.
"Well, from the looks of it you gave them quite the fight. Don't worry I'll get it back," Sonic said while smiling and ruffling Lucas's hair. Lucas felt at ease knowing with Sonic here everything will be ok. The robot burst from the smoke ready to strike. Lucas had suddenly got the dark aura for only second as he sent a blast of negative energy right into the chest of the machine putting it back down. The negative aura then faded away as quickly as it came.
"Wow, Lucas, I didn't know you could do that," Sonic said.
"It was the negative energy,"
"You mean you can control it?"
"Not completely I kinda don't like using it, it makes me feel too different,"
"I guess I can understand that," Sonic said. While Eggman Nega was down he had the robot put a few items in the water. Sonic had then tried his communicator again. "Ness, Ness come in you there?"
"Sonic, oh thank goodness your ok, I was worried that what happened to Lucario happened to you," Ness said with great joy.
"Yeah, I'm ok, and I found Lucas. But I need to get my Emerald, so after that lets meet up somewhere,"
"Ok when you're done meet me at the old zoo, Lucas should know where it is,"
"Ok got it," Sonic said as he turned his attention to Eggman Nega. "Well is that all?" Sonic asked. The robot then slowly got up.
"I've still got one last trick up my sleeve Sonic,"
"You Eggmans always don't know when-," Sonic was cut off as the robot lifted both its arms a pocket opened then fired a cord out one arm and the other stuck Sonic with a strange laser. The cord wrapped around Lucas then pulled him in. Lucas didn't have the strength to resist at all. He then dangled him above the water. Sonic got back on his feet then looked at Lucas's situation.
"Do you understand your precarious situation now?"
"Wow, I am so worried, I've never seen someone get splashed by water before?"
"In a matter a speaking yes, but this will be his last bath," Eggman Nega said darkly.
"There's also a big difference when you get angry and when my Eggman gets angry too. Squirrels must love you, cause your nuts," Sonic said.
"Shut up Sonic, I'm tired of your mouth that's why when you weren't looking I filled this lake with electrical charges. Enough to kill anyone so once you're in, there's no way out. It also paralyzes your system so you can't move!" Eggman Nega yelled.
"Ok then, lets see if I can get him before he even hits the water," Sonic said getting ready to run.
"Why don't you give it a try," Eggman Nega challenged. He then dropped Lucas and charged at Sonic, and Sonic ran forward at super sonic speed. Sonic looked like he was going for Lucas, but he instead hit Eggman Nega with a spin attack pushing him back.
"Sonic Wind!" Sonic exclaimed. Sonic manipulated the wind lifting Lucas safely to the shore. Sonic then once again pushed Eggman Nega until both of them fell in the water.
"SONIC!" yelled Lucas. Sonic shot one last smile at Lucas before they went down. Sparks were flying all over the lake. "NO, please, no it can't be," Lucas, said freaking out. There was a bright light then a giant explosion making electric rain come down. Lucas took cover then went back out. Lucas ran over to the shore ignoring the shocks he felt. He used his PSI to scan for life and he found nothing. There wasn't anything at all not even a fish. Lucas scanned harder putting more concentration into it, but still nothing at all. Lucas was at it for at least half an hour but with the same result. Lucas cried as he said these words. "Good-bye Sonic the hedgehog, my friend," Lucas cried with his face in the dirt pounding the ground.
