So I looked up the reviews and I gotta give thanks to Triser here for pointing out a little error in some aspects of my story, I will do a few spell fixes the next time Sonic fights. Any delays were the result of Finals week at Community College, I've got it all cleared up now. Without further delay here's chapter 6.
Don't own Sonic or Nanoha as stated before
Sonic Adventure: Lyrical Step
Chapter 6
Battle! Robots vs Mages! Eggman Returns!
*OP: "Eternal Blaze" Nana Mizuki Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's*
*Mid-Childa HQ:*
*Insert: "High Flying Groove" Sonic Riders OST*
Everyone took a seat at the food court while Nanoha tried cooking up some Chili-Dogs from lunch,being given the recipe from Sonic, she felt curious enough to try it. When she was finished she sat down and waited for the reviews. Sonic was the first to compliment on it.
"Nice! This is one of the best Chili-Dogs I've tasted! And this was your first time too!" the blue blur gave our brunette cook a grin and a thumbs-up.
Everyone else seemed to give their approval as well. Afterwards everyone started talking a bit about themselves. Amy Rose got into one of her moments where she imagined the highly unlikely scenario of her and Sonic getting married, and pretty much every romantic (and dirty) scenario one could think of went through her mind. Tails was lucky he managed to get hers and everyone else's attention when he spoke to Sonic.
"Hey Sonic? Remember when the Hoshi no Seihitsu (Ark of the Stars) landed outside of my lab and the adventure we had involving it and Babylon Garden?" The young genius questioned his blue older brother figure.
"Yeah, I remember. Fighting off that unstable core that was about to create a Black Hole that would swallow everything was one of the toughest fights we had without the Chaos Emeralds. Those stones came in handy with their gravity control, why?" Sonic questioned, while Amy and Knuckles brought the humans up to speed with what Tails was referring to.
"Well I managed to recreate its effects while I was tuning our Extreme Gear. I managed to bring it with me when we left for this planet. I was hoping you could test it out along with the upgrades I made to your Blue Star board." The young fox pulled out a metal plated blue hover board with a yellow stripe ringing around it, along with a large silver bracelet with a blue outline and handed them to the blue blur. Sonic first rubbed Shahra's ring to change into his Knight Clothing, knowing he'll have to test the young prodigy's creation and grabbed the items given, only for the board and ark to morph into metallic attachments on his wrists on top of his bracelets, drawing some surprise from the blue hedgehog and those watching.
"How did that happen?" Hayate asked, still recovering from the shock
"I don't know, I think it has to do with the morphing metal parts I used to construct the gear." The kitsune guessed.
"Sonic's device is a Modern Belka armed device; his device probably read the "Extreme Gear" as an upgrade to it. I'm amazed by your skills fox" Chrono provided.
Tails rubbed the back of his head in modesty "Thanks"
"I could arrange for you to work with Mary in our engineering division that handles the maintenance and engineering of devices if you'd like" Chrono offered.
"Well Tails that should be good for you, you always love tinkering with things" Sonic encouraged
Before the kitsune could give his response a loud alarm rang through the halls. Those present turned outside and were greeted by a large shadow. Changing into their barrier jackets and knight clothing respectively, Nanoha, Fate, Hayate, Vita and Signum rushed outside. Sonic still in his Knight Clothing from the upgrade the extreme gear provided followed the mages bringing along his set of companions. What they saw outside surprised everyone.
*Insert: "EGGMAN" Sonic Adventure 2*
A large red ship bearing the insignia of Sonic's good old pal Eggman was hovering about over our heroes. While the humans were shocked, it was a whole different story for the animals.
Sonic face palmed at the sight of the ship "He just never gives up does he?"
"How did he get here anyway?" Knuckles had to ask
"He must have followed us when we were on that ship" Tails offered
To the surprise of the humans, over 50 robots dropped down in a circle surrounding them and pointed their arm cannons at them. A circular platform dropped down and a robot with a blow horn announced annoyingly to everyone "Presenting the future conqueror of your world and all worlds in the universe, the illustrious and brilliant Doctor Eggman-sama!" After some cheesy robotic cheers the announcer stepped aside to reveal the mentioned doctor
"Why, thank you! Ah Sonic that's a new look for you. I hope you've enjoyed your little vacation, because it all ends after I grab the Chaos Emeralds from you!" Eggman announced pointing at the blue blur.
"Wait, how did you know that Sonic had the Emeralds already?" Tails questioned
"Tails…" Sonic face palmed
"Because you just told me fox boy, Now Sonic hand over the emeralds and I will spare all your lives. Once I have them, I will use them for my…" The doctor rambled on about his plans
"500 yen he's going to choke on his evil laugh?" Sonic looked towards Hayate. The brunette took his bet
"… And I will conquer the universe! Ahahahahaha Hohohohoho-ugh ugh" Sure enough Eggman's laughter was interrupted by a cough attack.
"Ha! Told you! Pay up!" The cocky blue hedgehog held is hand out to the living Lost Logia.
"Darn it" The brunette grumbled and paid the hedgehog
Eggman recovered from his cough attack and noticed the girls with their devices wielded against his robots. "I don't know who you are, but you will not get in my way obtaining the Chaos Emeralds!"
The 5 mages wielded their devices, "Haken Form" was displayed on Bardiche, the axe head of Bardiche opened on both sides generating a yellow blade from each side making it appear like a scythe. Nanoha's device was in its Exelion form. Signum's device "Laevatein" was in the form of a long sword. Hayate had her device in its active form in her right hand with her tome in her left. Vita's had hers in its mallet form. All of them (Hayate aside) ready for the mechs
"Well, if you're going to be in my way, then so be it. Robots Attack! Make them regret siding with that pesky little hedgehog!"
"Haken Saber!"Bardiche displayed and with a swing Fate launched the yellow blade from her device; making it spiral in a boomerang that ripped clean through 5 mechs.
Vita called to her device; it loaded and pumped out a yellow cartridge near the head. "Raketenform" Graf Eisen spoke and morphed its head to a missile-tip. "Raketenhammer!" Vita shouted; a rocket burst from the rear of Graf Eisen's missile head, Vita spiraled and launched herself at the robots at breakneck speeds; she completely demolished 10 robots to count.
"Axel Shooter" Raising Heart displayed when Nanoha swung her staff firing 16 magic bolts taking down 8 robots.
Signum called to her device "Laevatein!" at the base of the blade, near the hilt a red cartridge was loaded and pumped out. "Strurmwinde" Laevatein spoke and coated itself in flames, with a well-aimed swing Signum launched a fiery blade that sliced through 12 robots at once.
Fate held up her hand "Plasma Smasher!" and fired a powerful bombardment beam, taking out 10 more mechs.
"Divine Buster" was displayed on Raising Heart and Nanoha wiped out the remaining robots with her bombardment spell.
While the animals were quite impressed, Eggman on the other hand wasn't. He banged and threw a childish temper "Grrrr! I'm not finished yet! My Egg Breaker will squash you flat!" The mad doctor pushed a button and a large mech with a mace for a right hand and a left handed fist landed on the ground. Eggman activated his Egg-Mobile mini-ship and combined into the mech's head.
Sonic smirked towards the mages and animals alike "Leave this to me, I'll teach that Egghead!" and jumped into battle against his foe.
- Boss: Egg Breaker-
*insert: "Egg Breaker theme" Shadow the Hedgehog*
"Lights out!" Eggman cried as his machine leapt into the air and slammed his mace on the ground. Sonic didn't even put much effort when he dodged the doctor's attack and nailed him with 5 hits from his homing attack. Sonic slid under the bot and spin-jumped the underside; dealing quite a bit of damage to it and then slid back out from under it.
"You know what they say the more the merrier!" Eggman declared and fired several large cannon balls from a circle around his machine. Sonic got into a guarding stance and called out "Panzerhindernis" which created a light blue dome-shaped barrier that cover Sonic's front and back deflecting the cannon shot. This drew a few stares from the furries aside from Knuckles and Shadow, who already saw this spell in the mock fight earlier. Eggman alternated between these attacks, with no success at all since the blue blur alternated between dodging and his barrier spells to combat these attacks. For 2 minutes straight Eggman was shut down at every angle. Sonic got on the offensive once more and called out "Sonic Wind". He created 10 light blue arrow-shaped bolts of wind energy suspended in mid-air with the wind. "GO!" With a thrust of his fist the arrows impaled the Egg Breaker's center and arms, dealing severe damage to the main body.
"All right, now you asked for it!" Eggman declared and revved his machine up, generating more power. Unfortunately for him, several icy blue cubes nailed the feet of his mech, and froze it in place. "Hey!"
Hayate, her hair turned blonde from her Unison with Reinforce Zwei, stood firmly, her staff pointed at the frozen robot.
"Oy! Hayate! What are you doing? I said I'd handle it!" Sonic turned to the black-winged mage
"Gomen Sonic, I couldn't stand around without having a little fun" the mage giggled then swung her device downward "Mistilteinn" and caused several spears of light to impact and petrify the whole body of the machine, leaving Eggman's cockpit unscathed.
"Hey! You can't just petrify my robot like that! Oh no! All functions are down! You'll regret this!" Eggman slammed his fists on his cockpit
"You lose Eggman!" Sonic finished the robot off by impaling the core with his spin-dash. The machine exploded causing Eggman and his mobile to fly up and hit the ground.
The doctor got up only to be bound in place by yellow rings that appeared on his wrists "Gah! What's the meaning of this? Let me go!"
Fate confronted the doctor "Doctor Eggman, you under arrest for attempted theft of powerful relics, attempted assault on mages and flying in a no fly zone!"
Sonic burst out into laughs "Flying in a no-fly zone? That's actually a crime here? I mean you girls can fly all the time and yet you can get arrested for flying in the wrong area?"
Fate explained "You need special permission to fly here, this is government property"
Fate called some officer's over to take the Doctor into custody and some aerial mages to disable the Egg Carrier. In a matter of minutes the scene was secure and everything was cleared.
-A few hours later-
"Well now that that old Egg's out of the way; let's get working on that extreme gear test." Sonic said as he put on his forehead silver rimmed green tinted sunglasses and brought out his Extreme Gear and Ark of the Stars. Everyone nodded and went to a training simulation where a city course was set up.
Sonic leapt of the ledge where he was standing. The girls began to panic until they saw the blue blur suspended in mid-air when his right bracelet glowed.
"How is it doing that?" Nanoha questioned
"The Ark of the Stars can temporarily warp Gravity to the user's benefit." The young fox explained and watched as Sonic smirked, cheered "Yahooooooooo!" and descended into the streets below.
*Insert: "I'm still a believer, Theme of Metropolis Speedway" Sonic Free Riders*
Sonic made a clear landing on his extreme gear and boosted off. He soared through the course at a quick pace, he dealt with turns through either drifting or use of the Ark to manipulate gravity and stick to walls. He also took the opportunity to perform high-flying tricks like grabs, air-walks, 720 spins, rolls and flips. This test went on for several laps. One thing Sonic took note of was that even after the 5th lap straight the gear lasted, making it one durable ride. After 10 laps Sonic finished and soared back up to the group, dismounted from his airboard, then dismissed it back into the portable chips on his bracelets. He also released his Knight Clothing.
Sonic gave his report to Tails "I have to say, you did a good job little buddy. The speed was just as fast as last time; turning and curving were a big improvement as well as the drifting. The gravity control wasn't too great, whenever I used it for drifting or moving to a wall it cut short sometimes. Other than that, you're doing good." He patted the young fox on the shoulder.
"Here, Tails why don't we take you to the engineering department in the main branch, I'm sure you'll be able to fit in well with our tech experts and help them develop new upgrades to devices, with your smarts you'll do just fine." Chrono offered and guided everyone to the main branch.
After a short walk back to the main building, passing a couple of hallways they finally reach the engineering division. They were met by a young, green, haired, light-yellow eyed woman wearing glasses and a blue TSAB uniform and a white lab coat. While there are other girls in the room tinkering with devices, this one was most notable because she was the head.
Chrono introduced her "This is Mariel Atenza; she heads the precision engineering section of the Engineering division. Mariel? (Said girl looked at the admiral and Tails)This is Tails, he'll be working alongside your department, and he's quite good at maintenance and development"
Mariel bowed "You can call me Mary if you wish, Tails-kun. Everyone let's make our bright new addition feel at home."
The other girls at this particular office were excited to see the two-tailed kit, almost instantly one tried to hug him. Tails cried out "Uwah! Help me Sonic!"
"Sorry Tails, you're on your own" Sonic and the others laughed and left the poor (or lucky) fox all on his own.
Soon night time came around to end this day, Tails was finally released from the clutches of the girls he was working with. Sonic announced that he would perform a concert tomorrow night, his reasons unknown to everyone, even his friends. The little blue hedgehog always was unpredictable. After a long exhausting day everyone fell asleep in an instant.

End chapter
Author's Notes: Explanation of terms you may find unfamiliar
Raketenform and Raketenhammer: German for "Missile form" and "Missile hammer"
Sturmwinde: German for "Storm wind"
Panzerhindernis: German for "Tank Barrier" or "Armor Barrier"
Gomen/gomennasai: Japanese for "I'm sorry" or "Sorry"
Ark of the Stars: Reference to Sonic Riders Zero Gravity, in this game Team Sonic clashed with their rivals the Babylon Rogues in investigating the stone, it turns out that the Ancient Babylonians from the Sonic verse came to the world on their "Space-ship" Babylon Garden, but the Ark of the Stars that was used as the engine unit became unstable and turned into the "Lightless Black" or Black Hole. Eventually without the aid of the Chaos Emeralds Sonic and the Rogues took down the Master Core before it swallowed everything
Babylon Rogues: Gang of thieves that appeared in the first Sonic Riders game, they served as the rivals for Team Sonic, their leader is an overconfident green hawk named Jet. Their tech foil for Tails was a purple swallow with a mean streak named Wave. And Knuckles's foil was a grey albatross named Storm, who's dimwitted but loyal to Jet. And these Rogues were descendants of the Ancient Babylonians in the Sonic canon.
Sonic Riders: In this game Eggman hosted a world grand prix to take the Chaos Emeralds and use them to unearth Babylon Garden and take its treasure, while in the end he eventually "succeeded" in taking the "treasure" Sonic and Jet were more than happy to give it to them, it turns out to be a magic carpet, much to Eggman's disappointment and the furries' amusement. In the end the Carpet was a prototype gear that was made of the same parts used for the modern extreme gear.
And with that I'm done with this chapter, there will be plenty more I haven't even gotten to the main storyline. This is all a big prologue to the main story, I think I'm done with introducing characters until I start the actual story so next chapter's probably going to be some follow ups with Eggman's arrest and what will happen to him. Sonic's concert and probably a few training spars by Nanoha and Fate for the other furries. I will probably give a few characters devices, but nothing that sentient and their active clothing will be homage to old Sonic games.
