Collided Worlds
Chapter 2: Quest for the Chaos Emeralds
--
Lt. Brendan Aggeler and Lt. Wesley Dodson cruised over Mobius' western continent in their Y-wing starfighter. "Anything?"
Wesley asked. "Nope." They were following intel that the red Chaos Emerald was in the area. "WAIT! There it is!" Brendan maneuvered
the Y-Wing so that he could open the canopy and grab it. "Finally we have the darn thing. Took us long enough, we've been combing for
two days. Let's go back to Angel Island base and report in." Brendan Jerked the contol yoke and stepped on the corresponding rudder
pedal, and the Y-Wing yawed up and shot off.
Dr. Eggman flew his "Eggmobile" hovercraft over the outermost perimeter wall of a fortress ruin. MewThree A levitated over after
him. "What happened here? Who destroyed this place?" MewThree A asked. "Sonic did. It was my first base. The Crusher Pistons I tried
to smash him with were destroyed, and that started a huge fire, as well as breached the fuel storage tanks. The fire was rapidly spreading to
the exposed fuel, so we both had to bail." "Must have been very high-yield fuel," commented MewThree A. "Well, let's get looking." They
moved through the ruins, looking every which-way for the white Chaos Emerald. "Ah-ha!" shouted Eggman. "There it is." The white Emerald
was a short way off in the distance. They moved towards it, when a group of still-operating Badniks(Eggman's original attack droids) burst from
the rubble, alerted by their approach. "Oh, just self destruct, you blithering idiots." The Badniks burst open, releasing the captive small
animals inside. Eggman grabbed and pocketed the Chaos Emerald. Eggman then saw that a stray missile was two seconds away from
starting an avalanche. He swore. "MewThree! Avalanche! Let's run!" "Why?" said MewThree A. "Observe." He focused on the tumbling debris
and quickly had it in a telekinetic grip. He moved it aside and lowered it gently. Eggman, whose jaw had dropped, recovered and said
"Come on, let's head back."
Shadow the Hedgehog climbed deeper through Space Colony A.R.K.'s internal machinery, searching for the yellow Chaos Emerald.
Princess Zelda was accompanying him. "This part hasn't been visited in a long time, I can tell." They carefully made their way across the
catwalk. "Good grief, there's still somebody's lunch at that workstation." Shadow went to investigate. "Hey cool, those two Cokes haven't been
opened yet." He looked in the fridge. "And there's a whole lot more in here. An entire case, looks like. And pizza." He checked the desk, and
found a lot of chips and candy. Zelda spotted the Chaos Emerald sitting in a cup of stale coffee. "I found it," she said. "Cool, let's celebrate
with this stuff I found before heading back."
Lupin the Third and company, along with Link and E-123 Omega, were in a subterranean cave complex hunting for the light blue Chaos
Emerald. Jigen grumbled, "My feet are killing me." "Shut up." They walked through the caves. At one point a wall of metal spikes blocked the way.
Goemon quickly slashed through it. They proceded onward. "That's it up ahead." "Of all the luck, it's in a crashed vehicle with a still-active se-
curity system." Lupin smiled. "Allow me." He quickly but cautiously slipped through the trip-lasers for the security system, grabbed the Emerald,
and returned. "That went well. A good workout." Just at that point a giant fire-preathing monster burst up from the floor twenty-odd yards behind
them. Link drew his sword. "This is my specialty. Watch thi-" A pair of wide-bore pink laser blasts shot past and blew the
monster's head off. "Never mind." "Good shot, Omega."
Tikal the Echidna glided over the ocean, closing in on the purple Chaos Emerald. MewTwo was following close behind. Thank goodness
for your ability to discern the rough location of the Chaos Emeralds. They glided onward. "We're getting closer. Oh crud, I'm losing altitude." Let
me help you. MewTwo used his powers to hold her aloft. "Thanks." They went on for a few more yards."Okay, let's dive." MewTwo formed bubbles
around the both of their heads to let them breath, then they plunged into the ice-cold water. Two fathoms down they found the Emerald. MewTwo
picked it up with his powers, levitated them out of the ocean, and teleported them back to Angel Island. That's all of them. "Well," said Sonic,
"are we going to do this or just stand around?" End Chapter 2.
