Chapter 2: Let's Play a Game
In the Blue Typhoon, Tails was able to turn on the systems. He immediately turned on the scanners to pick up the signal of a chaos emerald.
"Looks we were sent somewhere useful." spoke the echidna.
"We've got a problem," said the boy working on a computer.
"What is it?" questioned Sonic.
"There have been severe damages to the ship. We might not be able to leave the planet at this rate." responded Chris.
"That's not good. We better look for the chaos emerald while you guys fix it. We may be able to find something that'll help fix it." spoke Amy.
"Hopefully, it isn't a fake." said the hedgehog.
"A fake?" inquired Cream.
"Choo?" spoke Cheese.
"The Metarex love their rock collection. I have no doubt that they'll start it up again." replied Sonic.
"This better not be a fake. We have enough trouble as it is." said Starlight.
"Let's go." spoke the hedgehog as he jumped off the Blue Typhoon.
Tails and the boy stayed behind to make any necessary repairs while the rest of the crew joined him. Chris noticed something on the screen he was working on and screamed at the leaving group.
"Guys! Hold on! The emerald's coming towards us!" exclaimed the boy.
"What?" said Sonic.
The sand exploded in front of Sonic to reveal the two Metarex that were hiding. They were identical to each other. Both had one eye, two sharp claws, a long tail, and were the color of the sand.
"Hello." spoke the one on the right.
"How do you do?" said the other.
"We're the Desert Twins." spoke both of them together.
"I'm Des." said the first one.
"I'm Ert." spoke the second one.
"We've come to play a game." said Des and Ert.
"What game?" demanded the hedgehog.
"A game of hide-and-seek…" started the first twin.
"And tag." finished the second twin.
"Why on earh would we play a game? We'll pummel you!" yelled Knuckles.
"That's..." said the right one.
"What you think." spoke the left one.
"We're stronger than you think." said the first one.
"And this game will surely excite you." spoke the second one.
The echidna was about to bark out another answer when the plant girl stopped him.
"What's the rules?" asked Cosmo's daughter.
"We'll hide…" started Des.
"And you'll search for us." finished Ert.
"Also, one will have the chaos emerald…" said the first twin showing a white chaos emerald.
"And the other will have the planet egg." spoke the second twin showing a spiky cream colored planet egg.
"If you catch one of us…" said the right one.
"You have to guess who's who." spoke the left one.
"But we will keep switching the two…" said the first one throwing the emerald to the second one.
"To confuse you." spoke Ert throwing the planet egg to Des.
The right one caught the planet egg while the left one caught the chaos emerald.
"What if we lose? How do we know we can trust you?" questioned the girl hedgehog.
"We always keep our word." said the first one.
"We do it in the name of our master." spoke the second one.
"We get Sonic..." said Des pointing at Sonic.
"And you'll die." spoke Ert pointing at the rest of the group.
"If we win?" inquired Starlight.
"You get the planet egg…" said the right one.
"And chaos emerald." spoke the left one.
"Let's…" said the first one.
"START!" spoke the second one.
The Metarex gripped each others hands and spun together causing a sandstorm. When the sandstorm stopped, they were gone. Suddenly, giggling echoed in the desert as the twins spoke.
"We forgot to mention that…" said Des.
"You have to tag us to try to guess our name." spoke Ert.
"Everyone gets one guess…"
"No more, no less."
Their giggling faded until silence fell.
