Chapter 4

Egg carrier Reborn

First

Bam! I flew into the bottom loop of the 'S' on the Sears logo sign on the building.

"Ooouch. Note to self: Stay out of water around Shadow."

Just then, I saw something drop. Then another. The logo began to sway and creek.

They're on top of me. "Who ever they are, they sure do weigh a lot."

I jumped about two seconds before the Sears logo crashed to the ground. I landed in the dreaded pool, which, as you should already know, was recently emptied.

"Who are these guys?" I said as I looked around.

A huge shadow was casted. Something was blocking to moon.

I looked up. Then-

I was in some room with capsules that had things in it. I felt myself walk threw the door that that said "Exit". My words sounded muffled as I walked, and soon I saw Shadow…and Eggman. With the Chaos Emeralds…

The jewel on my necklace stopped shining after my occasional vision was over. My legs gave in from under me.

"Shadow and E-Egg-m-ma-n? Then that thing up there is the Egg-c-carrier!" And those things that fell from the sky- they're his robots. "Hmm. But how did I get up there in my vision-."

I blacked out. Every projectile armed robot shot at me while I was still in shock.

When I awoke, I was in the room that was in my vision, only I was in one of the capsules.

"Ggrrrrrugle." When I spoke, bubbles came from the air mask.

"Subject awake. Opening capsule." The voice came out of an intercom high above. The water drained out and the capsule open. A towel was dropped on my head as I walked out.

"Okay, I'm here. Um, who the heck are you?" I said that trying to imitate King Julian off of 'Madagascar'.

"I am Computer. I am the main function of all actions of this place."

"Okay computer, this is the Eggcarrier, right?"

"That is correct."

"Are we still in Station Square?" I started to walk around.

"We are on our way back. It's been 7 hours since we left." It answered.

"Computer, what did Eggman do to me? What did he want with me?"

"I am sorry. I was instructed to answer three questions, then not answer to you again." It stated.

"What?" Aw man. "Computer? Computer?!" I shouted, demanding to be answered.

Silence.

"Well that's great. Well, the exit door was to the right." I said to myself.

Following through with the vision, I walked out the capsule containing room. Now I knew what I was saying in the vision.

"What did Eggman want from me? More importantly, what did he do to me?" I asked myself.

I checked my body for marks or anything for any sign that he extracted any blood or some patch of fur or quill was gone. As I felt around, I noticed something:

"My…My necklace is gone!"

Then I saw Eggman and Shadow side by side, looking straight at me. That's where the vision ended.

"Well, it's about time you woke up." Eggman spoke up.

You know, I would run, but a few times are holding me back: 1- They have the Chaos Emeralds, 2-they have my necklace, 3- I don't know how to get off this thing, and 4- I'm practically surrounded. It's like a flying robo-town. I listen to the stories that they tell me, Cream, and Shadow.

I had to attack. What else was there to do?

"Take this!" I screamed.

I ran towards Eggman, planning to get at least 1 Chaos Emerald. When I was two feet from Eggman, Shadow did a drop kick to my side.

"Gaaahh!" Man, that was stupid.

I flew onto the right wing. When I got up, I was curious enough to look over the edge.

"Whoa! Well, curiosity killed the cat, but not the hedgy!" I joked.

I laughed at my lame joke, but not for long…

"Lets see if that's true." Shadow stated.

With that, he speared me from behind and we fell towards below.

Bang! We landed on – something.

"Welcome to my floating arena!"

On my hands and knees, I looked down. It looked like very, very, veeerry clean glass. Only it was a little less hard and more bendy.

"Let the show begin." Shadow yelled.

With that, Eggman pressed a button somewhere in his floating mini hover Egg. The Eggcarrier transformed… Into a flying stadium. In those seats were robots and humans. The first I noticed was my name in white on a blue back ground screen. To the left I saw Shadows name in black on a red background screen. I then noticed the line that was put in-between them, following down one column of seats.

"Ooooooohh…" I looked in aw.

One side was for people who were rooting for me, the other for Shadow, and the white chairs were for the unsure who to go for.

I wasn't surprised when way more people were on Shadow's side. 5 were in the white seats, and 3 on my side. People were coming and going, for snacks or bathroom or whatever.

"Ladies and gentlemen! We have Shadow-." Eggman started to do introductions.

"Yaah! (Screams and shouts) That most of the crowd.

One guy even said. "Kick his ass, Shadow!"

"And we have Jetsu!" Eggman pointed at me.

"Go, Jetsu! Yeah, woohoo!" That was some people.

'Bing!'

"Lets dance, punk!" Shadow said.
