Sonic began to quiver as he felt the ground shake. Had Eggman won?
"Hohoho!" Eggman cackled as he watched the hedgehog. "Nothing can keep up with the Egg Scrambler now!"
Before Sonic could think, the piston below him shot to the ceiling. Desperate to dodge, Sonic found himself in the path of a downward-falling piston. Sonic continuously dodged a flurry of smashes from the Egg Scrambler, but unfortunately for Sonic, the worst had yet to come. Without warning, energy lasers began to fire from the sides of the Egg Scrambler!
"Come on!" Sonic yelled. "What the hell is this?"
"Hohohoho!" Eggman replied. "Still alive, my cerulean friend? I'm not surprised!"
Episode 7: Eggman's Perfect Machine! Power of the Six Chaos Emeralds!
Sonic desperately tried to dodge the onslaught of crushing pistons and deadly lasers, but he was caught of guard. He fell to the ground, but a piston was coming straight from the ceiling towards him! He tried to roll to safety, making it out before the piston could crush him. Unfortunately, his left hand wasn't out of the way in time!
"Gyaaaaaah!" Sonic howled in pain as the towering piston snapped every bone in his hand.
"Hohoho!" Eggman sneered sadistically. "That's what you get for not accepting your fate! Now your death will be slow and painful!"
Sonic desperately tried to free his hand while the piston beneath him began to rise. He had to get his hand out of there or his whole arm would be ripped off! Without thinking, Sonic flipped over and kicked the piston with all his might. Surprisingly, the piston was broken apart and his hand was free. He quickly ducked to safety before his body reached the ceiling.
Sonic began to feel dizzy as his hand continued to bleed. If he didn't act fast, he'd bleed to death! However, before Sonic could form a strategy he felt a sharp pain puncture his chest. One of the lasers shot through Sonic's body as he began to cough up blood.
"Damn it...," Sonic cried to himself as he fell to the ground, losing consciousness. "Damn you, Dr. Eggman..."
"Hohoho!" Eggman laughed with twisted glee. "I killed him! I finally killed him!"
Sonic felt his life escape him as his eyes closed...
Get up, Sonic!
Sonic opened his eyes in disbelief. Was it his imagination?
Come on, boy! I know you can do it!
No! It was his friends, who relied on his victory. Sonic mustered the energy to rise to his feet.
Please, Sonic! Do it for Papa!
"Eggman...," Sonic whispered, startling the doctor.
"You're alive?" Eggman gasped in disbelief.
"EGGMAN!!" Sonic screamed. "YOU SON OF A BITCH!!"
At that time, a laser shot at Sonic. Regaining his composure, Sonic simply dodged it, but landed underneath a falling piston. Sonic just grinned and punched the piston with his right hand, shattering it to bits.
"What is the meaning of this?" Eggman cried. "You took a laser to the heart! You should be dead!"
"Yeah," Sonic grinned. "I should be. But, I got lucky. It missed my heart by less than a centimeter!"
"You cheeky little runt!" Eggman roared. "How dare you trash the Egg Scrambler!"
Sonic charged at the wall protecting Eggman from him, completely destroying it. Eggman cowered in fear and got into his Eggmobile.
"You haven't won, Sonic!" Eggman cried.
"Oh, really?" Sonic smirked as he curled into a ball. "Spin Attack!"
He attacked the Eggmobile, causing Eggman to laugh.
"Hohoho!" Eggman cackled. "You can't defeat the Eggmo- WHAT!? The auto-repair function isn't working!"
"Fool me once, doc, shame on you," Sonic grinned. "Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three or more times, shame on you, because I'd eventually figure out your trick! See ya later, Doctor Eggman!"
"How many times do I have to tell you?" Eggman bellowed as he fell to the Earth below. "It's Dr. Robotni..."
"Well that takes care of that!" Sonic grinned as he grabbed the Chaos Emeralds, but before he could take another step, he collapsed to the floor, smiling.
An elderly male duck swam with his wife and children on a small pond, the sun and the stars watching over them.
"So, when do I get to meet this Sonic fellow?" the male duck asked one of his children.
"Sorry," one of the kids replied. "He's already gone to the world below!"
"Aw," the father sighed. "I wanted to meet our savior..."
"You sure about this, boy?" the old bear asked Sonic, who simply grinned.
"Of course," Sonic replied. "I already know how to fly the Tornado anyways."
"Are you sure?" the old bear asked, obviously not convinced. "This was my father's plane, so you better not wreck it."
"I won't, pops," Sonic smiled as he pointed at the old bear with his left hand, which had healed over his six weeks of rest. "Thanks for the plane, by the way. I'll take real good care of it. That's a Sonic promise."
The bear began to laugh out loud.
"Hey!" Sonic shouted. "What's so funny?"
"You think by adding your name to it, it makes your words more powerful in meaning?" the old bear giggled, taking a puff from his pipe.
"Of course," Sonic grinned. "I come up with the 'best' attack names!"
"Right...," the old bear grinned.
"Well, I'm off!" Sonic shouted as he climbed into the cockpit of the bear's biplane, the Tornado. "See you, pops!"
Sonic turned on the engine and set off for his next adventure.
That boy, the bear grinned as he walked away. Has a lot to learn...
The duck family looked overheard as they heard a rumbling sound. Above them, they saw a plane, with Sonic in the cockpit. He waved at the ducks, who waved back, before he flew off into the horizon, towards wherever his adventures would take him next.
Next Time: Sonic flies his biplane to West Side Island, where he meets Miles Prower, a young fox with two tails, but they aren't the only ones there.Don't miss The Mutant Fox: Enter Tails the Two-Tailed Fox!
C/C: For better or for worse, South Island is over with. I will admit I got a bit lazy after this chapter so there MAY not be a new chapter next week. Please keep your eyes peeled though, I may surprise you.
Also, I know its Sonic's biplane, but I had to introduce it somehow. Oh well, it's Sonic's now anyways.
