Chapter Nine: The Treasure of Babylon
Jet, Wave and Storm were standing in front of the stone door that led to the treasure they had been looking all over for years. "Okay; let's go!" Jet said. Jet raises the crystal box to the stone door and a bright light shines from within it. As the door opens, Jet and his crew stare in amazement as a golden ray of light hits them. The door opens to reveal a large golden chamber with another stone door at the other end of it.
Back outside with Sonic and his friends, Kumori was still chasing Sonic around Babylon Garden while Shadow and Mach were watching from a safe spot. The chase was soon ended when a strange and thunderous roar echoed through out all of Babylon Garden. Sonic looked towards the direction of the sound to find that the roar was coming from the center, where Jet and his teammates went. "Hmm, finally something interesting." Sonic said.
Back with the Babylon Rogues, Jet, Wave and Storm were crossing to the other side of the room on their gear and passed through the second door. The room beyond the door seemed be an enormous and endless corridor. The mysterious roar returned again and the Rogues looked back to see the stone door close behind them. "Great! How are we get out, now?!" Wave asked. "You don't, you greedy fools." A booming voice came from behind them.
They Babylon Rogues look back to find a large, hulking purple hawk wearing a red and gold vest (I think) and a golden tribal necklace. They group looks down to his feet and see that he doesn't have any. The entire lower half of his body was nothing but a golden bottle. "Who are you?" Jet asked. "I am the Babylon Guardian. I am the one who protects the ancient treasure of the Babylon." The Babylon Guardian. "Well, you aren't needed anymore. I am Jet the Hawk, the leader of the Babylon Rogues and we have come for the treasure." Jet said. "Do you have proof that you are the leader?" the Babylon Guardian asked.
Jet then pulls out the crystal box and shows it to the Babylon Guardian. The Babylon just stares at the crystal box for a moment and then begins to laugh. "Did I miss the joke?" Storm asked. "Finally, after 3000 years, I will have my revenge!" the Babylon Guardian yells. "Revenge?" Jet asked. "3000 years ago, the leader of the Babylon Rogues trapped me in this prison, forcing me to protect their treasure. But now, I will take revenge upon them, by killing you, Jet the Hawk." The Babylon Guardian proclaims. "This is bad." Jet said
The Babylon Guardian opened his mouth and spat out a great big ball of fire. "Move!!!" Jet shouted to his teammates. The three scatter into different directions as the fireball crashed and burned. Wave looked back and found that the Babylon Guardian was chasing her. The Babylon guardian suddenly summons a long chain and ties it around Wave's legs. Wave fell off the Tsunami and looked up to see the Babylon Guardian was floating over her. The Babylon Guardian summons a smaller fireball in his hand and throws it at Wave.
Wave closed her eyes to await a burning death. But the attack never came. Wave opened her eye and saw Jet using the Wind Rider to block the attack. Jet was able to save Wave, but the force of the attack sent Jet flying ten feet back. "JET!" Wave yelled as she and Storm ran to his side. Wave held the injured Jet in her arms and asked "What were you thinking?" "I was thinking of saving the most important person to me." Jet said weakly. "You idiot." Wave said, with tears ready to fall.
The Babylon Guardian was hovering over the two during their tender moment. "Aww, a love interest. Too bad it won't last much longer." The Babylon Guardian said. The Babylon Guardian raised his hand and summoned another fireball in his hand and was about to throw it until. "SONIC WIND!" "CHAOS SPEAR!" The Babylon Guardian looked over and saw a blue sphere and yellow arrows headed his way. The Babylon Guardian held his hand out to block the attacks like they were nothing.
Then, Sonic, Shadow, Mach and Kumori appeared in front of the Rogues using Shadow's chaos control. "Hey guys, looks like you could use a hand." Sonic said. "We could use all the help we can get." Jet said as he weakly stood up. "If you fools really think you can beat me. Then let us find out." The Babylon Guarding said. The Babylon Guardian waved his hand and the corridor was replaced by a hazardous race track. "Let the contest begin." The Babylon Guardian said.
The seven riders jumped on their Extreme Gear and chased after the Babylon Guardian. "We have to defeat that thing if we want to get out of here." Shadow said. "But how do we do that?" Storm asked. "Leave that to me." Mach said as he raced ahead. "Mach! Wait!" Sonic yelled. Mach raced towards the Babylon Guardian, but the Babylon Guardian just swings him away. When the Babylon Guardian knocked Mach away, the Unknown was sent flying at his bottle. The unknown crashed into the bottle and cracked it, causing the Babylon Guardian great pain.
"That bottle, it must be his weakness." Wave said. "Then let give him all we got." Sonic said as he and Shadow raced ahead of the group. Sonic formed and blue sphere in his hand and Shadow summoned over ten yellow arrows. "SONIC WIND!" "CHAOS SPEAR!" they both shout. But the Babylon Guardian swats the attacks away and redirects them towards the one that created them. The attacks hit directly and caused Sonic and Shadow to fall.
"I am tired of these games. Now to finish this." The Babylon Guardian said. The Babylon Guardian raises both of his hands into the air and creates a large sphere of white energy. "I'll take care off this." Jet said as he raced ahead of the group. "Jet, don't!" Wave yelled, but it was useless. The Babylon Guardian threw the white energy at Jet and landed a direct hit. "NO!!!" Wave yelled as she watched Jet be killed by the white energy. "It is finished." The Babylon Guardian said.
The white energy was gone and all that was left was a large pile of smoke. And to everyone's surprise and happiness, Jet flew out from the smoke, severely injured, but still alive. "What?! But how?!" the Babylon Guardian asked. Jet redirected to course of the Wind Rider and landed directly on the Babylon Guardian's bottle, smashing it. "NO!!!" the Babylon Guardian yelled as he disappeared in a ray of light and was replaced by a treasure chest.
Everyone walked up to the chest as Sonic and Jet opened it up. "Oh, its-" everyone said. Just then, Eggman came in, holding two guns to the group. "Too awestruck by the treasure to notice me, eh?" Eggman said. Everyone looked back to find Eggman. "Eggman?" Sonic questioned. "Now hand over the treasure!" Eggman demanded. At that, the entire group laughed. "Wh-what's so funny? Hand over the treasure right now!" Eggman demands again. "Okay, catch!" Jet said as he threw the treasure to Eggman.
Eggman catches the treasure and it turns out to be a carpet. "Hehehehehe! The Treasure of Babylon is finally mine! Huh? What IS this thing? A piece of cloth...?" Eggman said confused. Eggman unrolled the carpet and a small note fell from it. Eggman picked up the letter and read it out load. "At long last we've created our ultimate invention. With this, our lives will be easier, without the need to work so hard to keep ourselves flying. Stolen, the 13th leader of the Babylon Rogues."
Eggman looks at the carpet again and says "It's amazing! The carpet's rich texture is a sight to behold! And the way it feels is extraordinary. Something such as this could only have been created in Babylon. Undoubtedly, this carpet will be in high demand from all around the world. But... But what's this? No way... I went to the trouble of holding the World Grand Prix for... f-f-for this? I-I can't believe I just wasted my time for THIS piece of junk!" realizing this, Eggman faints.
Shadow walks up to the carpet and inspects it. "Hmm, what's this?" Shadow ponders out loud. "Good eyes. Didn't think you'd spot it for a second" Wave said. "Hey, what're you talking about?" Sonic asked. "This isn't just a piece of fabric." Wave said. "Right. Take a look at the material; it's the same stuff we use for OUR Extreme Gear!" Shadow said. "You don't say." Jet said.
Jet pulls out his crystal box and it starts to glow. Suddenly, the carpet begins to fly off the ground and hovers off just above their heads. "Hey, is that..." Kumori asked. "Not sure, but maybe it's a prototype Gear." Wave said. "A magic carpet? I thought that those only existed in fiction." Sonic said. "That's quite funny, actually. I never imagined that we Babylonians could be descendants of real genies." Jet said.
Out in the desert, the seven riders watch the Babylon Garden float from a distance. "So, you're leaving this place?" Sonic asked. Yeah. The back of the carpet has more words of wisdom. It says, "This was invented to allow Babylonians to travel all over the world to gather treasure." Some things never change, huh? But enough of this friendly banter, Sonic; you better make sure you're ready when we meet face-to-face once again." Jet said. "You bet!" Sonic said.
"Come on, Jet. It's time to split." Wave said. Storm pushes Wave and says "Hey, I wanted to say that!" "Come on, Sonic. We have to go too." Shadow said. Jet and Sonic toss their boards in the air; leaping onto them, they move directly opposite each other. Curving back around, they jump through the sky, passing each other; creating an "X". They look back at each other one last time, smirking. Storm passes Jet, while Wave rides next to him. "You may not have won, but you're still a winner to me." Wave said, kissing him on his cheek. Wave rides ahead and Jet looks back one last time. "You may be fastest, for now... but I'll be back, Sonic the Hedgehog!" Jet said one last time aas he and his team left for their next adventure.
Back at the endless corridor, Black Doom and the mysterious person appeared through a black hole. Black Doom looks into the empty chest and says "It looks like we are too late. The treasure of Babylon has already been taken." "Who said anything about the treasure being our target." The mysterious person said. Black Doom looked at the person, confused. The mysterious person then holds out his hand and the Babylon Guardian's bottle reform in his hand. "I may have some use for you." the mysterious person said as he gave out a cold, chilling laugh.
