SuperSonic Speed
Chapter 2: Green Hill
---
Sonic explored the roof, looking for an escape route and seeing what type of food he could find. Amid the various chairs and tables, Sonic saw a fluffy orange ball lying on the ground. However, this was no ordinary fluffy orange ball; this ball was crying.
"Hey," Sonic whispered.
"No! Go away; I don't want to be a robot!" The ball cried.
"What are you talking about?"
"What? You don't know?" The ball asked, uncurling itself to reveal the form of an innocent, shaken, young fox. Except this was no ordinary fox, this fox had two tails!
"Robots have taken over the city hundreds of them! You know, you really don't look like a bad person." Said the fox.
"Uh-uh. This is totally not good! However, something's bugging me. Why do you have two tails?"
"Well, I'm not sure; everyone teases me because of it. I don't know why, but I can use them to fly."
"Whoa! That's way past cool! By the way, kid. What's your name?"
"Tails... Well, it's really Miles Prower, but I hate that name, so everyone just calls me Tails... That, or "Two-Tailed freak."
"I'm Sonic the Hedgehog, and I have a trick up my sleeve too. I can run faster than any other living thing on the planet."
"That's cool." Tails said, frowning.
"What's wrong? Sonic asked.
"I was gonna ask you to give my parents a ride... But they're...dead." Upon saying this, the fox started to shake and cry again.
"Dead?"
"Killed by the robots."
"Do you know anything more about those robots?"
"Well, from what I've heard, the weakest prisoners are killed and the others are turned into robots to fight in his army."
"Where'd you hear this?"
"Around. Why?"
"Nothing, it's just that I can't find my own parents. Wait a second! Isn't there a chance that they're alive then?"
"No, I saw them die."
"What kind of sick man or woman goes around killing people and turning them into robots?" Sonic wondered.
Just then, a familiar buzzing came from around the rooftop entrance.
"Buzzbombers! We have to run!" Sonic yelled over the crescendoing humming of the killer robot bees.
"Nowhere to go!" Tails yelled back.
And then, suddenly, Sonic got an idea...
"Tails, climb onto my back!" Sonic yelled over the thunderous humming.
The fox obeyed, and Sonic began to run, with Tails piggybacking. Sonic began gaining speed and the duo was approaching towards the edge of the building at a dangerous pace.
"Are you nuts?" Tails shouted.
"Me? I ain't nuts! I'm Sonic! And if you wanna live, you better hold on tight!"
And then Sonic did the unthinkable...

"Lieutenant Juke, report," Robotnik said through his headset.
His voice was actually more calm than usual; after all, he HAD succeeded in his ingenious master plan in turning Metropolis Zone into a lake of chaos. His plan had taken years to construct, everything had to be perfect. He had to assemble robots through lower-profile operations, gather assistants, and of course, plan the assault.
Lieutenant Juke had been a worker rather than a volunteer, she was from Casino Night, and had needed the money for her sick dad, and had been "employed" (more along the lines of enlisted) when Robotnik had overheard a conversation. Juke the Hedgehog, was soon fit with a laser pistol, and became an excellent shot.
However, Eggman regretted the day let Juke in on his Big, huge plan. She'd asked how he could do such a thing as killing innocent, defenseless people out of cold blood. Robotnik assured her that it was for a very important reason, but the Lieutenant had been rather edgy ever since.
"This is Lieutenant Juke, things look bad. Most of the buildings are either blazing or scorched, some are even completely gone. Nobody's here-- Check that, waitasec! It looks like somebody's committing suicide! There's-- Hang
on, lemme check my binoculars here. Yes! There's a blue hedgehog with an orange fox on his back! But-- it's moving to fast, there's no way that things real! That thing's going about four times the speed of a cheetah! It's headed right for the edge!"
---
"I hope you like carnival rides, 'cause this one's gonna be rough!" As Sonic executed his idea. With a swift hop, Sonic jumped off the building and fell.
"Sonnnnnnniiiiiiiiicccccccc!" Tails screamed in a very high-pitched voice.
Sonic flipped head over heels into a horizontal position, and with an almost inaudible "thud" landed against the side of the gargantuan skyscraper. Sonic's plan had succeeded. He was now running down the building with ease. By the time Sonic was at the tenth floor, the buzzbombers were still nearly at the top slowly hovering down.
---
"Geez! I don't believe this! That guy is running so fast he's running down the building! He's making some serious room between him and those double B's! (Term Eggs inc. uses for buzzbombers) Juke observed.
"Lieutenant, anything else?" asked Robotnik.
"Yes, they're headed eastbound, towards Green Hill. They may be headed for Casino Night. I've heard that there's an evac camp there, that is u-c (unconfirmed) though."
"Ah, perfect! I can go right over to Mount Marble and wait for the hedgehog there. If he's planning on going to Casino Night, he'll have to pass Marble first. Excellent job, Lieutenant, continue your search."
"Yes, sir."
Robotnik broke the transmission.
"Attention all remaining buzzbomber squads. Report to Casino Night zone, where you will be instructed on your new mission- Operation Dice the Dice."
Robotnik laughed maniacally. He dared not tell Juke he was overtaking her hometown. However, what needed to be done, would be done, and that was all there was to it.
---
Sonic jumped down from the building and landed on two feet. Tails ran away to a nearby location and was instantly sick, he returned shortly, and didn't look nearly as well.
"Guess you got F-Ts, short for 'first-timer's syndrome', ha, guess you couldn't handle it. I hope it wasn't the high speeds, 'cause we need to go to Casino Night, that's where our emergency evac plan says to go. We should try and make it there by morning. We haven't even left the city yet." Sonic said. Tails silently jumped onto his back and Sonic started to run.

2 hours later
---
Sonic was running, almost unconsciously, his mind playing movies the whole time. He saw Slam, and his mom, and dad. He was supposed to participate in a race today, it didn't matter now though. Because Metropolis was ruined, his parents were most likely dead, and he was being chased by a bunch of robots with one goal: To kill him.
A giant dropoff gaped before him, leading off it was a loop. And not too far in the distance was a volcano, the great Mount Marble.
"Cool!" Sonic exclaimed, "Tails, check this out! I'm gonna run this loop!"
And Sonic ran a quite about a half-block back, and then ran towards the loop. Sonic gained speed, and then he was up and into the air. Then, in less time than it took to get Sonic into the air, he was out, crashed on the ground. Horrified, Tails flew down by Sonic to check him out. Sonic was unconscious, but nothing was serious, and he only had a couple minor bruises, if that.
---
Mount Marble
---
Mount Marble was a volcano that was fitted with a temperature control unit to cool the lava so Robotnik could use it as a base.
"Buzzbomber squads, we are launching a second attack and launching it early." Robotnik yelled into his microphone. "Assault number two is in Casino Night Zone- Assault number two, will now be called 'Operation Dice the Dice'. The attack will be identical in objective, except this is an all buzzbomber attack. And that you do not want to harm the buildings. Just take as many prisoners as you can, kill if you have to."
Juke would not at all be happy with this.
---
Sonic awoke to a large humming and a lot of yelling.
"Sonic! Wake up! Buzzbombers!" Tails yelled.
"Sehwah?" Sonic asked, still half out of it.
"BUZZBOMBERS!"
"Whoa!"
"Wait, they're all going away!"
"What happened there?"
"Whatever happened, it saved our rear this time."
"Yeah, that was for sure,"
"Hey Sonic, should we go up that mountain?"
"Uh… we HAVE to go up that mountain. It's the only way to Casino Night."
And the two then started up the mountain… Unaware of the danger within.
Next Chapter: Never is it wise to climb a volcano, especially when that's where an enemy base is! Plus: Operation Dice the Dice ensues.
