Chapter 21: The Beginning of The Unfaithful

Eggman was getting ready for his next attack. "Listen very carefully, all of you. My next plan of action is to lure Sonic into the Storm Vortex. By doing so, I will be able to control the Ultimate Beast, Tryoviryn the Unfaithful. It is a truly massive creature and with Sonic as the bait, it will be under my control. I shall begin the operation by obtaining bait to attract the bait." he said, walking out of the building and leaving Flaere to assume his preparations. "Please...please stop us, Sonic...if that beast awakens..." Flaere thought as he did his job. Meanwhile, Eggman had arrived at Sonic's house to see if he was there. "Wait...he's probably too tired for me to do that...I'll go for the girl." he said, driving over to Cosmo's house. The only one there was her mother, so he decided to make due. "Okay, I'll have to do that instead since the girl is not here...of course, there's no shame in asking. Excuse me, ma'am. Is your daughter here?" he asked Hertia. "No, she isn't. Did you need her for anything?" she asked him. "No, I'm sure you will be able to assist me in a similar manner." he said, unleashing a light spray of sleeping gas at her. She was knocked out and Eggman had his bait. "Perfect, now to wait until the time is right..." he thought as he floated back to his base, leaving a note for whoever to see.

Sonic and Cosmo were walking up to her house almost a few minutes after Eggman had left. "So I said to the jerk, "Hands off, it's hard to keep these quills in shape!" " Sonic said, making Cosmo giggle. "Really, though? Is it that hard?" she asked. "Well...not really. Hey, what's this?" Sonic asked, ripping the note off of the door. "Hmm...Sonic, if you are reading this, then the girl's mother is my prisoner. To save her, come to the new city of Turg and my grand GeoCastle. Make haste, who knows what I'll do as I wait...ehehehahahahahahahahaha!!"...that bastard!" Sonic shouted, passing the note to Cosmo, who was now in shock. "Call Tails and tell him we need the Tornado." Sonic said, picking her up and dashing all the way to the train station. "Hello, Tails? It's me. We're on our way..." Cosmo said, her voice low.

When they arrived, Tails was already finished with his modifications on the Tornado, which now looked like an angelic version of the Egg Carrier. "Hey guys, what's the reason for the Tornado?" he asked, puzzled by the looks on Sonic and Cosmo's faces. "Eggman has Cosmo's mom and we need to get her back. Thus is the reason for the..." Sonic stopped when he saw the new ship with his mouth agape. It took a few seconds and a light tap on the face for him to regain focus. "...call for the Tornado. Can you help us?" Sonic said. "Of course. Say no more. Should we pick up Shadow and Knuckles?" Tails asked, but was interrupted by a rush of wind. Knuckles and Shadow were on the scene. "Let's get going." Shadow said. "Yeah, I'm up for some action." Knuckles said. "Okay, just let me get the keys from my mom and..." Tails said but was stopped by Sonic. "Hold on a sec. Tails, old friend, you made this ship, right?" "Yeah, I did." "Therefore, why the freaking hell don't you keep the keys?" "You try keeping the keys from someone who does roundchecks of your workshop when you aren't around and ask me that." "...Let's go."

The ship took off and flew straight towards Turg, which was now mechanized and under Eggman's control. Large, brightly lit skyscrapers and buildings shone underneath the blood red sky with flags showing Eggman's face blew in the little wind. Everyone was walking throughout the city slowly, with chains to the feet and steel spheres covering their heads. "Oh my god..." Cosmo said, burying her face in Sonic's chest. "Eggman, I swear to God, if Cosmo's mom met this same fate..." Sonic thought angrily. "There's the castle, guys!" Tails said. He landed in the large courtyard, where Eggman sat in waiting. "Never late, as usual..." Eggman said as Sonic ran straight towards him. "You got ten seconds to show me Cosmo's mother unmechanized or you'll be ripped to shreds..." Sonic said. "Right here." Eggman said, pointing to Hertia on the wall. The shackles released themselves and she fell into Cosmo's arms. "Of course, now I have what I want!" Eggman said, unleashing energy at Sonic, who wasn't ready to dodge. The energy whipped around him and left him immobile. "What is this!?...As if I didn't already know." Sonic said. "Well, I needed to get you here, off-guard, long enough for my next plan. I'm gunning for the Ultimate Beast within the Storm Vortex. Have you not heard of Tryoviryn the Unfaithful?" he asked, Sonic's eyes widening in fear. "Umm...well...no, I...I didn't..." he said, but Eggman knew he was lying. "Either way, I need him to come out of his Storm Vortex to obtain him, and you get to help me." "How, pray tell?" "Ever hear of live bait...?" Eggman said with a sinister smile. "That's what I was afraid of..." Sonic thought as robots lifted him. "Drop the hedgehog." Shadow said, his hands glowing. "My robots will keep you busy. Get them!" Eggman said, thousands of robots storming the castle and surrounding Cosmo, Tails, Knuckles and Shadow. "To the Storm Vortex!" Eggman said, his robots setting down Sonic and flying off towards a large pillar of clouds in the center of the sea.

After a few minutes, the robots were destroyed and Sonic's friends helped Cosmo's mom to the ship. "Now what do we do?" Tails asked, starting up the ship. "We go after them." Shadow said. "Yeah, or this beast will eat Sonic, if what Eggman says is true." Knuckles said. "Then let's hurry up." Cosmo said after making sure Hertia was all right. The ship started but what they all saw was mindblowing. The Egg Carrier was split in half, most of it in large, bent steel clumps and burning, a lot of robot parts and spilt oil that was also burning and the Storm Vortex was in the center of the city. Buildings were broken, streets ripped from the earth and the clouds from the vortex were covering most areas. "Oh my goodness...what is this...?" Hertia asked, looking over the damage. "Not too sure...but I have a bad feeling about this..." Tails said as they flew to the side of the vortex. Meanwhile inside the vortex, Eggman was thrown backwards and landed hard on his back. "Gah...even with a sacrifice prepared, he won't be my slave...!" Eggman shouted as he pulled out a long lance coated in dark energy. As he jumped to attack, a blast of sharp, glowing needles flew through him, dropping him back down and bleeding like someone who came out of the Iron Maidan. Eggman's body fell limp and a loud roar sounded all over the area.

Sonic was still out, the energy still leaving him unable to move until that same roar broke the energy and he woke up. "Where the hell?...the Storm Vortex..." he thought as an extremely large creature appeared before him. It was most likely the biggest serpent Sonic had ever seen, it's eyes glaring at him with six black lines in both eyes. Sharp fangs dripped with vicious intent as it was Sonic, a silver colored mane of hair on it's head with long sideburns and three horns, one on the forehead and two on top of the head. It had no arms, just large gold metallic crescents tipped with gems, curved gemcurves connecting across the wing and four sword-like protrusions, one of each set bent at the tip. Between the protrusions were glowing energy points and circles, which would be the "feathers" for the wings. It's main body was red and roughly the size of five battleships length-wise, with two bladed wheels on each side of it's body. Along the body were curved spikes and at the end of the tail was a large green pointed gem with golden designs on the sides and the same energy feathers. This was the Ultimate Beast, Tryoviryn the Unfaithful, and Sonic was shaking. "So...this is the big one...the Ultimate Beast...Tryoviryn the Unfaithful..." Sonic thought as he was about a nose's distance away from the creature. Expecting the beast to devour him, he stood firm but after a few minutes, nothing happened. He opened his eyes and saw the mighty serpent circling about him in the distance as the storm clouds blew all over.

"I wonder why it's so anxious?" he thought as he saw the serpent go back towards him. As it floated vertical before him, the scale of the beast hit home as Sonic stood, dumbstruck. "My god, you're huge..." he said, walking towards it. It remained unmoved as Sonic came within arm's length of it. The feel of the scales was a strange one for Sonic, the creature's shiny body glistening with spikes. "Not sure if I can handle you..." he said, staring eye-to-eye with the beast. For what seemed like an hour, they eyed each other until it's eyes shone with blood. It looked behind Sonic and saw Eggman's body moving. "Grr...not possible...there's no way that I was denied my power...you leave me no choice, Sonic!" he said, his body glowing until a large pillar of light covered his body. Suddenly, a large tower broke through the ground of Turg and pierced the Storm Vortex. "Whoa, what is this!? Wait a second..." Sonic said as he looked at the tower. A marble-bricked tower with angelic statues and huge columns stood firm as the Storm Vortex dissippated. "Is it...is this the fabled Tower of Avalon!?" Sonic yelled as Eggman stood atop the tower.

"Yes, Sonic! This is the Tower of Avalon, where the Sword of Avalon rests! He who controls the Sword of Avalon controls the elemental balance!" he yelled, leaping down to where Sonic was. "I may not have gotten the Ultimate Beast, but I will get that sword...huh?" Eggman said, speaking to no one because Sonic was already inside. The giant serpent, Tryoviryn, was wrapping it's body around the whole tower as Eggman rushed forward, his path blocked by Tryoviryn. "Fuck...fucking hell..." Eggman thought. Because of the giant beast, the interior of the tower was slightly dark as Sonic walked through. "I can't believe that I'm in the fabled judgment tower...huh?" he said as he saw a pillar of light covering something in a chapel. "Is this the Sword of Avalon?" he asked as he stepped in front of the sword. "Beast of Judgment...you've finally arrived..." a voice said. "Whoa! Who's there!?" Sonic said, looking around. "Tryoviryn has awoken...the beast of judgment has arrived...everything is going as we predicted..."the voice said again as the whole room started glowing. Ghastly spirits with ceremonial robes and hoods floated above Sonic. "Could you be...the Geosynthesizers of the Past?" Sonic asked. "Geosynthesizers...and Elementrials...both are responsible for the birth of this world that you live in..." "Geosynthesizers and Elementrials...but why am I here? And did you call me the Beast of Judgment?" "Correct...you are the beast of judgment...the beast that will enable the world to possess the chance to change...the chance to live...the chance to be judged..." "The chance to be judged...huh?" "We have company...defeat by means of Tryoviryn...rid us of the evil atop the tower..." the voice said before the room went dark again. "Eggman..." Sonic thought as he dashed out and along the side of the tower. He reached the top and stood beside the head of Tryoviryn, facing Eggman.

"Sonic...time and time again you've stopped me...Turg is mine...the world is nearly mine...and you can't stop me this time!!" Eggman shouted as his body took on a large mechanical Behemoth-like form, with large RPGs and gatling guns on his cheeks. His red eyes shone as he saw his targets. "Alright then...here goes everything!" Sonic said, jumping at Tryoviryn and placing his hand on it's head. A bright light later, Sonic had begun to transform before everyone. "Did...did Sonic just touch that huge creature!?" Tails asked. "Yeah, but for what purpose?..." Shadow asked. "Could it be another Geosynthesis beast?" Knuckles asked. "Not too sure but...the light is fading!" Cosmo said as the sphere of light dissiapted and Sonic's most destructive form appeared. He had no quills at all, simply silver hair on his head with the three horns coming from his forehead and sides. His eyes were white except for a black thin line in the center and yellow lightning-like designs outlined his eyes. His armor was red with large shoulder pads and long sides, his arms going into large red guantlets with gold rings around the top. The guantlets had a diamond on the palm and there were two sets of claws. The first were hook-like claws on his fingertips and a second set coming from the top of his hand, longer sword-like curves extending over his hand. The symbol of the Omega Force Gem was printed on his chest and two large bladed wheels connected with the crescent-like wings, the energy feathers glowing just as brightly. His legs were black with red bands around the hips and triangle marks on his knees. His feet were covered by huge boots with a triangle gem on the front and big claws at the bottom. His tail was the same as the beast itself, large and covered with spikes and a large pointed gem at the bottom. He let out an earthshattering roar as the transformation was complete.

"No fucking way! You dare take my beast!?" Eggman shouted, blasting everything at Sonic. He flew straight Eggman and was right behind him before the first missle was unleashed. Eggman had a sweatdrop on the side of his head as Sonic reappeared, his bloodthirsty eyes centered on him. One swing of his claws sent the mechmonster flying into the tower, most of the armor breaking off of him. Before Eggman could even recover, Sonic rushed in and delivered another claw attack, flinging Eggman into the street nearly 30,000 feet below. The impact was so great, all the remaining armor broke off and Eggman laid there, eyes completely white and unable to move. Sonic floated slowly downward, claws at the ready. All Tails and the others heard was a muffled scream and sound of flesh sheering before Sonic flew back into the Tower of Avalon. Cosmo looked over as the ship landed on one of the tower's large platforms. The entrance Sonic took was on this platform as they saw the doors close behind him. "Come on, everyone. Let's head inside." she said as everyone walked out. "Man, this thing is awesome." Tails said, looking over the tower. "Indeed, who knew this was hidden beneath the city?" Knuckles said. "Either way, it's up here for whatever reason and of course, Mr. Psychopath is inside." Shadow said walking towards the door. "Wait...I'm going in." Cosmo said. "But why?" Tails asked. "I've read about this tower and only Geosynthesizers can enter. I'll get him out." she said, walking towards the door before turning to face everyone. "I promise..." she said as she dashed inside. "...Good luck." they all said, entering the ship again.

Cosmo walked all the way to the chapel-like room where Sonic floated in front of the Sword of Avalon, staring at her with his sword-like eyes. "The Geosynthesizer of Birth is here as well...looks like the time has come for Avalon...take out the sword and prepare yourself, Sonic." said the voices again before Sonic turned around and grabbed the sword's hilt. He pulled it and easily got it out of the statue it rested in. As soon as the sword was pulled, the whole tower started glowing and the statue began cracking before all the rock blasted off. Before both Sonic and Cosmo was the King of the Tower, the Amorphous Ruler of Elements; Avalon. It turned out to be a large purple diamond shaped form with hundreds of arms flailing and swinging about. Three tails and six floating spheres complete the deadly creature. "You cannot absorb this beast, Sonic. Nor can you, Cosmo. Avalon must be destroyed to bless the sword with his power." said the voices before Avalon took center stage. "So it is ye who are ready for my trial. Fight me, young ones...and prevail!!" he said, reaching his arms and covering Sonic's body in arms and claws.

Cosmo unleashed her vines, which now were covered in a blue flame as she ran up towards Avalon. When she slashed and cleaved off the arms, Sonic was clutching his body as most of the armor he sported in his form was ripped off by the arms of Avalon. "Are you all right?!" Cosmo asked, dashing towards him. Before she got too close, Sonic dived and pushed her away before another arm grabbed him. This time, he had nothing of the Tryoviryn form on him as the beast entered the Omega Force Gem. "If I'm this judgment beast...then I'd better become one and fast..." he thought as he got up, grabbing the sword and standing defensively. "Let's take him down, Cosmo...together." he said, extending a hand to her. "Okay then...together." she said grabbing the hand. A bright light surrounded the both of them and the arms lunged forth, destroying them due to the light. "Cosmo...it's time you got your first beast." Sonic said. "What? Now? Where is it coming from..." she was caught off-guard by his body glowing and turning into a four-winged angelic hedgehog wth white flames covering his quills and large white clawed guantlets and greaves. "I am the beast of Judgment, Sonic the Hedgehog. Weird, I know but go with me on this. Anyway, let's go take this guy out!" said Sonic. Cosmo had the same form as Sonic, bearing a huge bow with ethereal arrows at the ready. As Avalon advanced towards her, she lunged forward, swinging the bow and slicing off all the arms before charging at Avalon. "The time has come for us to do what Avalon desires. We shall prevail, Cosmo!" Sonic said. "I am glad to hear that. Prevail, young ones!" Avalon shouted as it took on the form of a giant blade. It locked it's edge with Cosmo's bow until it pushed her back, flying her to the wall. She bounced off and shot arrows at Avalon, causing light explosions with each shot. "Cosmo! Use my power too!" Sonic said. Cosmo pulled out her arm and on her guantlet, Sonic's head appeared, charging with energy until he unleashed it, a stream of light fire blasting Avalon into the wall. "Now, throw the sword at him to immobilize him long enough for me to finish it!" Sonic said, Cosmo doing exactly that. The Sword of Avalon struck straight through the beast's chest, pinning him against the wall. Now, Cosmo charged another shot when Sonic explained what would occur.

"Cosmo, when this last shot goes, I'll go straight at him with the other beasts." Sonic said. "What do you mean?" she said. "We've never fought alone, Cosmo. The beasts have always fought alongside us and now will be no different. We'll all use our power to take out Avalon and bless the sword!" Sonic said as the energy reached it's limit. The shot was a spirit form of Sonic wielding a large sword and the other beasts charging around him. The impact was great and Avalon was glowing heavily as Sonic pushed the sword into him. "The blessing...is complete...excellent job...young ones...now, let the sword go to ye..." Avalon said, glowing brightly as the Sword of Avalon set itself on Sonic's back and turned into a symbol on Sonic's back, below his Geosynthesis symbol. Suddenly, the tower started shaking a little. "Cosmo! Sonic!" Tails shouted from an intercom of some kind. "Tails, what's going on!?" Cosmo asked. "The tower is showing some considerably high levels of energy! You guys gotta get going!" Tails said. "Okay, we're on our way!" Cosmo said, dashing towards the ship. She was getting on when she noticed that no one was following her. "Hey, what the...wait, Sonic is still in there!" Cosmo said, turning to go but the ship's door closed and locked. "Something's wrong! I've got no control over the ship!" Tails said, fiddling with just about everything. "Guys, get going! The Tower of Avalon is gonna blow! I'll push the ship away, so get ready!" Sonic said from seemingly nowhere. "But what about you!? You're still in there!" Cosmo said, pounding at the door. "I know. I'll be okay, though. I've made miraculous escapes before, remember? Trust me, I'll be cool! Tails, get going!" Sonic said. "...If you say so. You better be right, Sonic..." Tails said, starting up the ship.

Eggman woke up and saw the ship leaving the tower. "Oh now what...?" he thought as the tower shook violently. The top blew first, a large blue explosion with pieces flying everywhere. "Oh goddamn it all...ah well, the Eggman always survives..." he thought as a large piece of the tower fell on top of him. From the Tornado, everyone saw the explosion and looked out. What they saw was a small figure flying far from the tower, covered in blue flames. A large sphere of dark light also escaped and flew at the figure as well. The rest of the tower collapsed withing minutes and the whole city was covered in a thicket of dust and stone. Eggman's castle was totally destroyed and all the mechanized people were free. The Tornado landed within the city and overlooked the scene. "Well, so much for the tower..." Tails said as a trail of sparkles marked the path of the aforementioned figure. "That might have been Sonic, but we won't know until later..." Knuckles said. "Then we shall wait..." Shadow said. "I...I guess so...Please..." Cosmo said, looking as the sparkles vanished in the set sun as darkness settled in...
