"Hey, you're awake." Sonic stated, noticing Tails opening his eyes. "you need to teach me how to ignore that." Sonic said, gesturing over to Metal. Who was singing something that had "Friday" in it a lot.
The relevance to the dream the fox just had was... scary. Metal was a being of code and logic, could he even understand nothing? how many lines of code did it take for one, simple function?
How much brain power does it take for one thought?
Simplism?
"Why do you sing Metal?" Tails asked curiously... stopping Metal in his tracks.
"Because... it passes the time... because it calms people dow..."
"Not when you do it doesn't." Knuckles rudely interrupted. "When you sing, time stops and eardrums bleed."
"This one does not understand... according to earth's Internet's... the songs I sing are quite popular... or were quite popular at one point in time." Metal claimed. "due to Rotor's strong and unusual encryptions... I wasn't able to freely surf Mobius internet's given the small amount of time I've had so far on Mobius, nor would I have looked up the relevant information at the time... but seeing as how mobians and humans are similar somewhat in dialect, I concluded that some of the songs from here I sang would be enjoyable to your ears." Metal stated, like it was the easiest thing to understand.
"Interesting... very interesting." Eggman admitted "...are you still connected to the human internet by chance?" Eggman asked.
"This one is not." Metal said. "we are behind any satellites... given the circumstances of the situation... I conclude that we are on the..."
"Black comet." A voice suddenly interrupted, shocking everyone to attention. Looking up, Tails had a double take, as a cloud of black and red mist flew out of the red rock floor and swirled around the cavernous prison before him. Finally materializing in front of Metal as the leader of the Black Arms... Black Doom. "Known to you, as your grave."
"Yeah, right!" Cream shouted. "Good guys always win, no matter what!"
"Not this time!" Black Doom growled. "If you are wondering why you are here... it is to witness the end of everything." Black Doom stated, as he spoke, the floor before Tails cracked and slid open, exposing three very complex looking machines that even he couldn't make out. Black Doom floated into the middle of the room, eyeing everyone before continuing. "This..." Black Doom said, pointing to the biggest machine, "...is the Black Comet's Chaos engine, utilising it, along with the Chaos Emeralds and the key... we can do anything we want, be it something simple as sailing through time and space effortlessly, or creating and destroying life completely... nothing is out of grasp."
Tails suddenly started to feel the same feeling from before...
"All I needed, was the power sources... the key... and someone to start it up." Black Doom said as he turned to Tails. "I can see the future, with this power, I have foreseen these events... I have seen them play out, I have made them play out... I made Gerald make you Miles... I know that you will all die... and that I will be victorious." Black Doom stated, looking at the heroes, all now paralyzed when he infected them with his cloud form. "Now... for your ending..."
Tails could do nothing, not even struggle against his bindings as the rock pillar he was attached to slowly descended towards the Chaos Engine, which was glowing bright white with the energy from the Chaos Emeralds stored within.
"It's not going to work, Black Doom!" Tails could hear Metal yell behind him.
"Shut up robot..." Black Doom demanded... as a large scraping sound was heard. "what the..." Black Doom said.
Something unexpected happened; the aura around the Chaos Engine suddenly sputtered out as the Chaos Emeralds suddenly burst from the its side and floated between both surrounding machines...
"What's happening!" Black Doom yelled frantically behind Tails, before the world turned white.
what has happened? things sure are... chaotic... aren't they?
