Sonic vs Jet
In the desert place called Sand Ruins a somesort of colosseum stood in the middle where the audience sat anxiously waiting for the tournament finals to start. " Now our race has reached its final race! " The announcer said. " The remaining competitions are pacing, anxious for the race to begin. Only a few minutes left. Who will win this big event? " Sonic, Shadow, Silver, Roy and Amy stood in the colosseum, waiting for the final race to begin.
" Sonic! " Amy gave the blue hedgehog a thumbs-up sign. " Congratulations! I'll be over here, cheering you on! " Sonic nodded, then looked beyond Amy's shoulder and saw Jet who took a glance at him. Without saying a word, he, Shadow, Silver, and Roy headed up the stairs, towards the starting line. Eggman appeared in huge T.V screens.
" And now it is time for the final event! And it's set here...in Sand Ruins! The rules are still the same. Anything goes in this extreme race! Although it needs no further explanation, the first one to reach the goal, wins the race! But remember, the prize will be won by the racer who's performed the best throughout this competition! " Sonic approached a table with five of the Chaos Emerald and placed his in it. Jet approached it also and put his emerald too.
" Hah, " Jet said. "you're lucky you got this far. It obviously wasn't due to your skills! "
Sonic laughed. " Heh, I won't lose now! "
" Ho ho ho! " Eggman laughed. " Get ready, its time for the final race to begin! "
The contestants lined up at the starting line. " Ready...GO! " The racers sped through some ruins. Sonic looked ahead of him and saw Jet all the way infront and in first. Quickly, he sped through Shadow, then Roy and then Silver, jumped on a rail and grinded up on the roof of a ruined building. The blue hedgehog jumped and performed some tricks, landing at the top of another building. He was just a few feet away from Jet. The green hawk looked back and saw Sonic catching up to him. Does he really think he could beat me? Jet thought. Ha! He's really going to get a disappointment! He pulled out of nowhere, a pair of huge, green fans. He waved them.
" Bashyo Fans Attack! " Wind flew out of the two fans, towards Sonic.
" Gaaah! " Sonic spun back, but quickly regained his balance. Jet smirked at the blue hedgehog. Sonic responded by knocking him down with his spin dash attack. He then swirlved around him and jumped on a rail. He grinded up to the roof of some ruins and jumped into another building. A few minutes later he arrived at a somesort of harpoon, large enough for a person to get shot from it. That's exactly what Sonic did. He jumped on the harpoon and the harpoon shot him close the entrance.
Jet landed a few feet behind Sonic. He stared at the blue hedgehog in horror. He was getting closer and closer to the finish line! " NOOO! " Jet yelled. Fortunately, for him, Wave was hiding behind a rock with a somesort of button in her hands. As soon as Sonic passed her, the purple swallow pushed the button and immediatly, Sonic's board exploded and the blue hedgehog fell. Jet easily passed him and the finish line. Sonic looked up only to see that Jet had won the race. Jet flew towards the hedgehog. " Ah, " Jet taunted. " that dirt suits you well! " Jet laughed and flew off.
Sonic glared at the green hawk and then, pounded his fists in the sand. " DAMMIT! " He yelled. Jet flew over to the Chaos Emeralds and lifted the Control Box. The emeralds started to glow brightly, then, they circled around the hawk. A streak of light spurted out of each emerald and went inside the box. The Control Box then shot a light of its own toward the sand. The ground started to rumble and out of it, a huge palace came out and floated into the sky.
Jet stood in wonder and awe. " This..." He began. " this is Babylon Garden..." Before he could say anything else, a robotic claw came out of nowhere and snatched the box away from Jet. Jet didn't notice until he looked down to check on it. " What the hell?! "
Eggman retreated the claw and laughed. " Hohohohoho! Now I'll get the treasure of the Babylon! "
Amy looked up at Eggman. " Oh no! " Quick as a wink, Amy ran towards him and jumped on the flying machine before it flew away to Babylon Garden.
Sonic ran towards Jet. " Shadow! Silver! Roy! We gotta get Eggman! " The four hedgehogs ran towards Babylon Garden.
" Wait! " Jet called. Sonic stopped to turn around and face the hawk. " What? "
" What are you doing?! "
" We're goin ta get that box thing back! "
" Hell no! I can get it myself! "
Sonic sighed. " Look, Jet. I know you hate me and I hate you, but you can't do this alone. We'll help you get that box thing back! "
Jet wasn't so sure he could trust him, but he knew that Sonic was right. He sighed. " Alright. Alright. Juat this once. "
Sonic smiled. " Thanks, Jet! Now let's go get that Eggman! "
