How goes it? Welcome back to "Fists of Chaos!" I know there wasn't much action in the first chapter (if any), but I promise you that things are actually about to heat up a bit. You're in for a treat.
This chapter is actually what sets storyline in motion. Sonic may have survived the wrath of his history teacher, but unbeknownst to him, a greater threat lies ahead. Will our blue hero emerge victorious, or will he be doomed to a fate much worse than detention? Let's find out!
The Valiant Ordeal
3:15 p.m. Central City: Sonic's home.
"Muttski! Miss me, buddy?" Sonic greeted his barking pet Labrador, petting him as he stepped inside the humble Victorian house. "Hey! Uncle Chuck! I'm home!" "I'm down in the basement!" A distant voice replied. Sonic dropped his backpack and headed towards the basement. As he made his way down the staircase, someone warmly greeted, "Welcome back, sport! You made perfect timing." "Don't I always? You, of all people, should know me better than anyone else," Sonic replied. "Of course, I do, champ," the elder hedgehog said, "How was your last day of school?" "It was definitely interesting- I'll tell you that much." Sonic's remark earned a light hearted chuckle from his uncle. Dr. Charles Hedgehog, or Uncle Chuck as Sonic calls him, is a highly respected technician that has made a lucrative career out of fixing and inventing the latest technology. He stood no taller than Sonic, but was much older (around 50) with a full bushy mustache and eyebrows to match. 7 years ago, he was disturbed from his studies one evening by a knock on his front door. It was on that fateful night that he discovered his biological nephew, teary-eyed and trembling in fear, standing at his doorstep. After being informed of a devastating tragedy involving close relatives, Chuck took Sonic under his care with open arms and a warm heart. As the years progressed, Chuck watched Sonic grow from a cheerful little scamp to a charming young lad. Sonic was very helpful around the house; from taking out garbage to providing Chuck basic assistance with his inventions. On various occasions, however, Sonic would often sneak out without warning or permission in search of a new thrill, ranging from a well-rounded jog to a distant city to thrashing blood-thirsty criminals. These excursions of his would often leave Chuck with more than a few headaches. Being that Sonic had always been free-spirited, Chuck, though protective, would eventually concede to his escapades. He was well aware that it wouldn't be long before Sonic would have to set out on his own, indefinitely.
"So, what came in, this time?" Sonic asked as he walked into Chuck's basement laboratory. "Only 8 packages for you, this week, Sonic," Chuck said. "Aw, you gotta be kiddin' me. Only 8? My pay's gonna suck!" Sonic whined. Since he was 14, Sonic started his own small business as a part-time delivery boy. With his Uncle's assistance, Sonic would use an innovative and trustworthy database that would allow packages from around the world to be ship directly to his address. After the shipment is received, Sonic would provide speedy delivery service for a cut of the funds given. Despite mild income, Sonic's excellence at his daily grind was critically acclaimed, even earning him a brief T.V. interview on Central City News 11. Nevertheless, like many businesses, slow days were sometimes inevitable. This business one was no exception to the rule. "Oh, well. At least it'll be a quick shift for me. Let's see what we've got here." Sonic began to sort through the packages he was required to deliver. He noticed that one package was for him alone. "Hmm. Somebody must be feeling generous to give ME something," Sonic commented. He opened a small box to reveal an elaborate digital watch. The watch was had a dark blue plastic wrist strap with a silver frame and a green colored lens. Quite impressed with the rather fashionable accessory, Sonic immediately tried it on. "Looks good on you, kiddo," Chuck complimented. "You really think so? Well, of course, it is ME we're talkin' about, here," Sonic replied. He continued to ogle his new watch, when noticed it give of a peculiar, bright, green glow.
Initially, Sonic suspected that the watch had a lighting mechanism within it, but remembered he hadn't pressed any of its buttons. The basement lab was well lit, so a glow-in-the-dark feature was null and void. "Maybe it's solar powered or something," he guessed. Sonic ran outside to see if his theory was correct, but as a result, the light grew slightly dimmer. When he returned to the basement, the light, once again, shined brighter than before. Perplexed by this strange reaction, Sonic summoned his uncle for an analysis. "Hey, Unc'. Check THIS out." Chuck approached Sonic and examined the watch closely. "Oh, my. That's odd. Even for a common wristwatch, I haven't seen anything like this occur," Chuck stated, vigorously stroking his thick whiskers. After a minute of observation, Sonic and Chuck simultaneously turned towards a rather large contraption. The machine was actually a Chaos Emerald Containment Unit, which held one of the legendary Chaos Emeralds (the very Emerald Sonic's mother left in his care before he fled). "Maybe it's because of the Chaos Emerald. The energy that the emerald is giving off is somehow causing this reaction, or even an attraction. This is quite an astounding accessory, indeed, but how is something as simple as a watch responding to the emerald through the Containment Unit?" Sonic was also baffled at the strange reaction, but even stranger, he was unable to shake a bad vibe. Deep down, he felt something was amiss, but he didn't know what. Nevertheless, Sonic had a weird feeling about his new watch, and his intuition rarely led him wrong.
Not wanting to take any chances, Sonic turned to Chuck and asked, "Say, Uncle Chuck. Do you mind if I hold on to the Chaos Emerald just for today?" Taken aback by Sonic's request, Chuck replied, "You're in need of the Chaos Emerald? What for?" "Nothin' special. Just for safe keeping, is all," Sonic responded, masking his uncertainty behind his cool attitude. Well aware and knowledgeable of the power the gem contained, Chuck wasn't as compliant to give in to Sonic's wish as he usually was. Chuck shook his head and solemnly said, "That's what I built the Containment Unit for. There's no telling what type of havoc would be wreaked if the Chaos Emerald falls into the wrong hands. Honestly, I can't say that I'm extremely comfortable with this idea, Sonic." "The wrong hands? So…are you saying you can't trust ME?" Sonic replied disappointingly. Chuck stood frozen in silence; unable to fathom the thought of saying Sonic was unreliable or untrustworthy. Sure, Sonic was often a mischievous boy, but in Chuck's eyes, he was always dependable in the time of need. "Uncle Chuck, you're gonna have to trust me on this one," Sonic honestly stated as he placed a hand on his Uncle's shoulder. With his willpower diminishing, Chuck, yet again, conceded to Sonic's plea. He sighed and said, "Alright. If you can keep it with you at all times, you can take it with you. But you're to return with it right after you finish you're deliveries. There are a few tests I would like to run concerning the emerald and your watch. Understood?" Sonic nodded in agreement, "I promise!" Sonic took the Chaos Emerald out of the Containment Unit and stowed it in a small pack. After stuffing it in his pocket, Sonic said, "Gotta make my runs, now. I'll be back before you know it." Chuck smiled at his nephew as he made his exit, "Alright, sport. See you soon." Chuck, still reflecting on the past, warily thought, Please be careful, Sonic.
Sonic stepped out of his front door and overlooked his hometown. The beautiful sunlight gleamed brightly throughout Central City, contrasting a clear blue sky. Not even the darkest of alleys could escape its radiant glow. A warm, gentle breeze brushed through Sonic's fur as he observed the hustle and bustle of the city. "Okay. Let's see," Sonic said as he examined the list of packages due for its delivery, "9107 Coconut Avenue. Way across town, huh?" Tapping his index finger on his chin, Sonic contemplated his route to the address. "Around this time, traffic's gonna start picking up. And as I get closer downtown, it's really gonna be hectic. But it's also the last day of school, so traffic's probably gonna be murderous!" After a few moments of planning, Sonic finally made his decision. "Looks like I'm gonna have to split my route; Hittin' 'em high and low!" Sonic grinned widely with delight.
Following a brief stretching session, Sonic sped off from his home in a blaze of blue. He dashed through the streets of Central City at high speed, carefully drifting around the tightest of corners with well-timed precision. As Sonic suspected, rush hour traffic was beginning to form. Did that stop the hedgehog's momentum? Of course not! As each oncoming vehicle approached his path, Sonic skillfully dodged them with relative ease. "Heh. It looks like traffic wasn't as bad as I thought," Sonic cheerfully proclaimed. Be that as it may, it seemed that Sonic had spoken too soon, as a van- its driver was honking rapidly and yelling some rather abrasive vocabulary- sped towards him. Thinking quickly, Sonic picked up the pace with the intent of closing the gap between the van and himself. Before an imminent collision could occur, Sonic hopped atop of the roof of the van and jumped onto a beam protruding from a nearby building. He then proceeded to swing from the beam onto a thick metallic cable, grinding his way amongst it. Sonic's screams of exhilaration echoed through Central City. Once he reached the end of the extensive length of the cable, Sonic sprung off of its mount, where he gracefully flipped in the air. He safely landed on his feet and increased his speed as he continued through the main city.
"Alright! I should be pretty close now!" Sonic declared. Unfortunately, it seemed that getting to his destination wouldn't be a complete cake walk. Sonic noticed road barricades near a construction site where a new establishment was being built. Forklifts, trucks and various forms of heavy machinery blocked the main passage Sonic intended to take, much to his disgust. "Oh, COME ON! They really wanted to pick TODAY, of all days, to work on this?" Sonic complained. A series of wooden planks and steel poles were towering 250 feet above the ground in a scaffold. Due to a sudden mishap by a crane operator, the massive scaffold was damaged, and its entire structure slowly began to crumble. The crew of construction workers immediately began to evacuate from the site, but Sonic was far less than frightened. "Looks like I don't have a choice," Sonic said as he raced towards the catastrophe with excitement in his eyes. Utilizing the planks and pipes, Sonic agilely jumped his way to the top amidst the tumbling scaffold. Upon reaching the last plank, Sonic sprung onto a rail hoisted by a crane and ran to its end. "Guess my low route's done. Time to take higher ground," said Sonic. He leaped off the rail, soaring in mid-air towards a nearby building, and latched on to its fire escape. Sonic swung around the ladder of the fire escaped and launched himself onto a wall of an adjacent building. Instantaneously, Sonic jumped back onto the wall he previously jumped from, systematically alternating between the two buildings. Once he reached the roof, Sonic continued to spring on to a succession of rooftops without stopping or slowing down. At long last, Sonic's first destination was in plain sight. He hopped off the building right across the street from the package's address and slid down its awning, making a soft landing. "Let's see if I set a new personal record." Sonic glanced at his new watch. "3 minutes and 45 seconds. Do I ever cease to amaze myself?" the hedgehog playfully boasted.
*DING-DONG*
"Blue Streak Inc. I've got a special delivery for you!" Sonic announced to his customer. There was no initial response, so he decided to make another attempt.
*DING-DONG*
"Blue Streak Inc. Special Delivery! Anybody home?!" he exclaimed. "YEAH, YEAH! I'M COMIN'! KEEP YOUR FRICKIN' PANTIES ON…FOR ALL OUR SAKES!" An ornery yet familiar voice slurred. As the door opened, Sonic's charming smile gradually changed to a frown of horror, realizing customer was none other than Ms. Dowell in a rather unkempt appearance. Ms. Dowell's trademark French Roll was now a long, unruly cluster. Her trendy white blouse and black skirt were replaced by a white tank-top and baggy grey sweat pants. Lastly, the dangerous yard stick that Sonic was so accustomed to seeing was replaced by a half empty fifth of "Jack Rabbit's" Whiskey (which may have been more dangerous). Only one word immediately came to Sonic's mind: Yikes! Ms. Dowell greeted her ex-student with an unfriendly grimace. "So, you came to screw up my summer, too. Eh, wise-guy?" she hissed. Sonic gulped nervously and replied, "A-actually, no, Ms. D…er…Dowell. Y-ya see, I have a special delivery for you on behalf of Blue Streak- "Just shut up n' gimme the damn package," Ms. Dowell growled, not wanting to hear another word from Sonic's mouth. Ms. Dowell snatched the delivery from his hand and signed the confirmation slip attached to it. Realizing the tension was thick between the two, Sonic figured he should lighten the mood. "Downing that whole bottle of Jack, huh? Must be one helluva party goin' on in there!" Sonic jested. "There IS no party. Even if there was, YOU sure as hell wouldn't be invited. Now piss off!" Ms. Dowell spat. Apparently, Sonic had given her a harder time than he intended. He knew that she didn't want him in her presence, yet he persisted. "Oh. So, you're all by your lonesome, huh?" Sonic asked, giving Ms. Dowell a cheeky grin. "Hey, uh, are you looking for some extra company? Maybe I can swing by when I'm done with my rounds and…" Ms. Dowell formed a distasteful glare at Sonic, gritting her teeth. Sonic laughed nervously and said, "Ohohoho-kaaay. It seems like none of these jokes are working. Sooooo... I'm gonna go now. Thanks for choosing Blue Streak Inc. for your delivery services. BYE!" Within moments, Sonic was a mile away from the irritable Ms. Dowell's abode. "Whew. I made outta there alive! That's GOT to be some kind of mira-"
*KRRRSSSH*
"GAH! WHAT THE HELL?!" Sonic nearly fell over an oddly familiar bottle of liquor that somehow flew from the direction he just departed. Sonic quickly glanced back in disbelief. "Wait. How did…but, I'm way over…Holy CRAP, she's got a sick arm! That lady's NUTS!"
After an hour of delivery service, Sonic finally finished his work day and decided to stop by a street vendor he visited quite frequently. "What'll it be, today, Sonic? The usual?" The purveyor, a slightly chubby brown mouse, asked. "You know me too well, Tony," Sonic replied. Tony immediately pulled out two jumbo hot dogs and slathered them in spicy chili sauce. "Hm. And I thought I was fast…" Sonic commented as he anxiously took the two franks. "Well, you've been coming here more times than I can count. I was expecting you at any time," Tony remarked. "Oh? Is that so?" "Yep. Hell, it's getting to a point where I'm starting to see you in my sleep for Pete's sake!" "Not gonna lie, Tony; that's weirdin' me out a bit," Sonic said, "But, then again, I AM your best customer!" Tony only hunched his shoulders. "You've got a point there. So, whaddaya have in mind for summer break? There's gonna be plenty of tourist visiting the city, which means lots o' girls, Sonic! C'mon. Those pin-ups of pretty ladies can only do so much for you." The older mouse said with a devilish grin. Sonic just returned a dirty, unimpressed look. "You REALLY had to go THERE, didn't you, ya dirty pervert?" Tony chuckled heartily. Sonic bit a huge chunk out of one of the chili dogs and said, "Actually, I haven't really given it a lot of thought. I've been busy with my daily grind, so I didn't have much time to come up with a plan besides sleeping in." "Working so much you can't get a vacation, huh? Welcome to the corporate world, kid!" Tony replied, playfully shaking one of Sonic's shoulders. "Whatever. Who knows? Maybe something badass my come up. Or maybe this summer's gonna be dull as dirt. Only time will tell," Sonic commented.
As Sonic prepared to consume his second chili dog, he and Tony noticed a large aircraft hovering above Central City. "What is THAT?" Tony queried as he stared at the vessel. Sonic shook his head in uncertainty. "I don't know what that is, but this doesn't look good." "Don't be so uptight. This could be a prop for a movie scene or somethin', for all WE know," Tony reassured the hedgehog. Howbeit, that wasn't the case, considering many civilians in Central City also looked towards the airship in complete awe. Suddenly, Sonic saw several small objects dropping from the aircraft, growing larger in size the closer they approached land. Five of those particular objects were heading in the exact spot Sonic and Tony were standing. "LOOK OUT!" Sonic yelled, pushing Tony away from his hot dog stand before it was crushed. Before he knew it, Sonic was surrounded by a group of 5 hunter androids. "WE HAVE YOU SURROUNDED. SURRENDER THE CHAOS EMERALD OR PREPARE TO BE ERADICATED," one of the androids monotonously threatened. "Why can't I be wrong just once?" Sonic thought. As usual, his instinct proved him right, for an anonymous diabolical force was in after his Chaos Emerald. In spite of a perilous scenario, however, Sonic was not the same boy he was 7 years prior. The group of robots slowly began to approach Sonic with weapons drawn, preparing to seal Sonic's fate. Sonic suddenly began frantically waving his hands and cried, "WAIT! WAIT! WAAAAIIIIIT! HOLD ON!" Somehow, this unexpected outburst caused the droids to momentarily drop their defenses. Initially, it was suspected that Sonic was willing to surrender the Chaos Emerald as he rummaged through the pockets of his shorts. Yet, what Sonic pulled out was not a gemstone, but an MP3 player. "I gotta have the right jam for this," he said as he began scrolling through his rather lengthy playlist. "No…nope…uh-uh…nah…not today…Geez. Why the hell did I even download THIS song?" This delay left the fleet of drones puzzled, but steadfast on their objective. "Ah. Here we go!" With the press of a button, Sonic began to rhythmically tap his foot and nod his head to the beat of one of his favorite tunes. All the while, he continued to munch on his half eaten chili dog. By this point, the drones had grown impatient with Sonic and took sharp aim. Finally finished with his meal, Sonic belched audibly and smirked, "Alrighty then, boys! Let's Play!"
Two of the drones opened fire at Sonic. Oddly enough, every rapid shot ended up hitting each other, destroying them both. The first attack failed, and Sonic was now in mid-air. "My turn!" Sonic spun towards one of the androids and rammed head first into it, smashing it to several pieces. The two remaining androids quickly approached Sonic. As one attempted to strike, Sonic swiftly evaded the attack by dropping to pavement. Still on his back, Sonic counter-attacked with a spinning windmill, and then landed a one-armed handstand kick shortly before the android could even hit the ground. "Four down, one to go!" said Sonic with the final drone in his sights. Sonic quickly spun to its direction as the android fired at him. Carefully dodging the rapid fire of bullets, Sonic attacked the android with a middle roundhouse and spinning reverse roundhouse kick combination, leading into an aerial cartwheel kick, and finally finishing the mechanical assassin with a backflip kick into its head. "You guys made that WAAAAY too easy for me," Sonic proudly proclaimed. His victory was brought to an end when he heard several screams of terror come from various parts of Central City. "Well, crap. Rain on my parade, why don't you?!" Sonic griped, "Looks like I gotta split. Thanks a heap for the chili dogs! See ya!" Dumbfounded, Tony watched as Sonic sped away, until he realized, "Hey, he didn't even pay me! Oh, damn it! THAT'S THE THIRD TIME THIS MONTH!"
Sonic valiantly fought in the midst of chaos, destroying every robotic drone in sight. As he raced through the city, Sonic caught sight of a mother and her two children. Three robots hovered above the fearful family, threateningly. In an act of heroism, Sonic sprung into the air, smashed into one of the drones with a homing attack, and ricocheted into the other two before making a solid landing. "Thank you so much, sir. I thought my children and I were done for," the grateful parent said as tears fell from her eyes. Sonic sternly replied, "No need to thank me. Just head home. It's a bit too crazy for an afternoon stroll." With little hesitation, the family quickly escaped.
After several minutes, Sonic had successfully rid the city of the robotic onslaught…
*BOOOOOOM!*
…Or so he thought. "Damn! I just CANNOT catch a break today, can I?" Sonic irritably said as he headed towards the direction of the noise.
"MAN DOWN! MAN DOWN! WE'RE TAKING ENEMY FIRE!" a soldier from G.U.N., the United Federation military, shouted. Upon Sonic's arrival at a familiar plaza, he was stunned to discover several G.U.N. soldiers retreating from a ruthless attack from a gargantuan mechanism. The mechanical monster towered several feet high with four massive legs, two long arms and equipped with an arsenal of heavy artillery (which included a laser cannon). It had no name, but it did have a label branded on its structure: E-075. Trembling with uncontainable excitement, Sonic boldly confronted the metallic monstrosity. "Y'know, my day was going pretty swell. I had a great day at school, summer's finally here, and my work day ended much sooner than usual. Then, you and all of your little friends had to drop in and SCREW it all up for me!" Sonic pointed at E-075 with fire in his eyes. "Unfortunately for you, you're about to find out, first-hand, how much I HATE unpaid overtime!" Sonic confidently stated as he assumed a combatant stance, "Bring it!"
E-075 immediately targeted Sonic and fired a barrage of missiles where he stood. Although the wave of missiles was large in quantity, Sonic managed to dodge it. Once E-075's guard was down, Sonic seized the opportunity to attack by launching himself into its mid-section. As its next offensive, E-075 rocketed into the air and returned to the ground with an earth shaking slam. Consequently, the seismic landing disrupted the foundation of a nearby establishment, causing it to crash into the plaza. Yet again, Sonic was able to avoid a fatal outcome. With an attempt to destroy the quick-footed hedgehog once and for all, E-075 charged its laser cannon and fired a massive blast at Sonic, obliterating many vehicles and houses in the surrounding area. With nothing but ash, rubble and a cloud of smoke in its wake, E-075 had finally-
"Yo, Brass balls! Lookin' for somebody?!" The mechanism directed its attention to find certain smug blue hedgehog nonchalantly leaning on one of its large appendages. "I got a target for ya to hit, right here! TAKE YOUR BEST SHOT!" Sonic taunted as he spanked his backside. With little options left, E-075 decided to rely on brute force and attempted to trample Sonic. Due to its extreme size, however, each stomp was far too slow to for Sonic's agility and the aggressive maneuver failed miserably. Growing desperate, E-075 reached for a nearby G.U.N. tank and hurled it at the hedgehog. Sonic jumped onto the soaring tank and leaped towards the mechanism. In response, it swung its massive arms like a propeller in an attempt to swat Sonic like an insect. Sonic swiftly grabbed on to one of the spinning robotic arms. "Upsie-daisy!" He then proceeded to swing atop the arm he held on to. As he ran closer to the truculently flailing robot's head, Sonic buzz sawed E-075 cannon off its structure to prevent further destruction. From that, Sonic hopped onto the nearest rooftop. "Time to end this!" he heroically stated. As his final attack, Sonic spun at full speed from the rooftop and shot straight through E-075's core, resulting in its detonation. At long last, the reign of terror that fell upon Central City was brought to a resounding end thanks to the fearless endeavors of Sonic the Hedgehog!
"Tch. I'll cut ya some slack; at least you tried," Sonic teased at the now demolished mechanism. "What a day. I antagonized my least favorite teacher, made all my deliveries earlier than usual, stopped an invasion of tyrannical robots, and I still held on to the Chaos Emerald! Heh. And to think Uncle Chuck couldn't trust-" Just then, Sonic's heart sank into his stomach. Amidst the turmoil, Sonic had forgotten about Chuck, realizing his safety may be at stake. "Oh, no! I've gotta get home! Uncle Chuck could be…" Without a moment to spare, Sonic rushed to his home, hoping that Chuck was still safe and sound.
When he arrived, Sonic was distraught to find his home in complete disarray. Judging by the broken front door, the perpetrators, possibly related to the invasion, raided the house. Sonic rushed inside yelling Chuck's name in hopes of a response, but to no avail. He searched from the corners of the attic, to the now destroyed basement laboratory. Yet, no sign of the elder hedgehog remained. "Damn it! Why is this happening to US?!" Sonic yelled, banging his fist against the basement wall. The one remaining member of his bloodline that brightened his dark life had been disappeared. It mattered not that the tyrants failed to obtain the Chaos Emerald. Sonic felt that he, himself, failed to protect what he felt was more valuable; his family. With hope lost, Sonic could do nothing but hang his head in guilt and defeat.
As he walked into the living room, he noticed a strange envelope on the entertainment stand. Sonic opened the envelope and read a message enclosed within it, which stated:
To Sonic the Hedgehog:
If you are reading this message, you have surely realized that your relative, Dr. Charles Hedgehog, is currently missing. Without question, you may be wondering where he has disappeared to. Dr. Charles is now in the possession of Crimson Cloak Enterprise and Robotnik Technology Group. Rest assured, he is still alive, but if you ever wish to see him again, it is highly imperative that you fulfill the following demands. You, Sonic the Hedgehog, are required to compete in the upcoming world martial arts tournament we have sponsored. In addition to participating in the competition, you must also gather the 7 Chaos Emeralds, submitting them to our establishments upon your victory. Utilizing the Chaos Energy Indicator we have provided you with, the possibilities of successfully finding all Chaos Emeralds will increase exponentially. Should you fail to comply with our whims and demands, we cannot guarantee the survival of Dr. Charles, let alone his safe return. In short: THIS PROPOSITION IS NOT OPTIONAL. WE HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU PROCEED ACCORDINGLY!
Crimson Cloak Enterprise & Robotnik Technology Group
Although relieved to know that Chuck was still alive, Sonic was equally furious to discover corporate tyrants have held his uncle for ransom. Despite his lack of patience, Sonic took a moment to weigh his options. He initially thought about reporting this incident to the United Federation's government, but considering how heinous and powerful the opposition seemed to be, Sonic had a gut feeling that doing so would surely result in his Uncle's undoing. Sonic had previously heard rumors of the world tournament through advertisements, but paid it little attention. Be that as it may, now that Chuck's safety and well-being was jeopardized, this was an opportunity he couldn't pass up. For now, he would have to play their game. "Hmph. I never expected to do THIS for my summer vacation. Should make an epic 'back-to-school' report!" Sonic inwardly joked. On that note, he immediately raced through Central City to sign up at the nearest arena. With inextinguishable passion burning deep within his soul, Sonic grinned and exclaimed, "LOOK OUT, WORLD, 'CAUSE HERE COMES SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!'"
Uuuugh. That friggin' Mech battle, man. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. I promise I'll do my best to make the future fight scenes a lot more interesting. Leave reviews telling me the good, bad and ugly. Constructive criticism is ALWAYS welcome. Thanks for reading. Dueces!
