Sonic took a deep breath as he looked at the large doors that lead to Master Hand's office. He was nervous about how his friends and enemies would react based on his choice. He turned and looked at his friends staring at him. It didn't help when they were breathing down his neck. Eggman had the creepiest smile he had ever seen. Amy was also freaking him out with her big eyes.
Sonic turned back to the door. He raised his hand to knock, but lowered his hand and banged his head against the door. "Who is it?" Master Hand said.
Sonic was a little startled. He hadn't intended to get Master Hand's attention. "Uh, Sonic. I need to talk to you."
"Okay, but hurry up." Sonic opened the door and entered. His friends followed closely behind him. Sonic looked around the room. There were pictures spread all over the wall. They were picture that had been taken during all of the smasher's brawl. Sonic could see one where he was about to be eaten by a fish. Another was Ness about to hit a homerun on Charizard. "What is it that you wanted to talk to me about?" Sonic turned toward Master Hand.
Sonic gave a nervous chuckle as he tried to get his words together. "Yeah, um, I have made my decision."
"What decision?"
Sonic started to become even more nervous. "The decision about who is going to join me from my world. For the next tournament that is."
"What are you talking about? I never said you got to choose your own representative from your world."
Sonic was stunned. "But I was told I could choose someone."
"Who told you that?"
"Pit."
Master Hand burst out into laughter. "That's how he's going to get you back then."
"Wait, what do you mean get me back."
"First, tell me the story. What has happened since he told you." Sonic told Master Hand about the events of the last few days. Master Hand found what happened hilarious.
"Okay, I told you," Sonic said. Sonic's friends had heard what they had been saying and left.
"This was the last tournament. In the first round, you took Pit out with a dragoon, a very powerful pokemon, and a smash ball. He thought that it was unfair, especially since those three things took him out without you actually touching him. I denied him a rematch, but he said he would find a way to get you back." Master Hand turned to a few papers on his desk. "Now, I would appreciate it if you would go. I have to make all of these plans for the next tournament. Honestly, the budget might not be enough to bring you back for another set of tournaments."
"What do you mean? I haven't been paid at all."
Master Hand looked up. "Then I need to talk to Crazy Hand. You may want to talk to your friends."
Sonic sighed as he walked out of the office. He was quickly tackled by Amy as she shouted, "SONIC!" Sonic looked up and saw Tails and Shadow take five dollars each from Knuckles and Eggman. Sonic groaned as he got up.
He looked at all of his friends and said, "Sorry, but at least we don't have to worry about friendships being worried. It doesn't matter who I chose."
"You chose Shadow," Tails said.
Sonic glanced at Tails. "Why would you say that?"
Tails held up a book with the words Sonic's Diary on the front. "Dear diary. I have thought this over for long enough. Tomorrow morning, I will go to Master Hand and tell him my decision to choose Shadow. Signed, Sonic" Shadow grinned. Everyone else glared at Sonic.
Sonic did a little nervous chuckle. "You have no proof that that book is mine. Am I the kind of guy that would call it a diary."
"No, but you said why you called it a diary." Tails flipped through the pages until he reached the front of the book. "Dear diary. This is my first entry. I thought I would call it a journal, but I thought it might throw people off if they saw diary on the front. They might Amy made it up or something." Amy glared even harder at Sonic. "Because of that reason, I will call it a diary. Signed, Sonic."
Sonic shrugged. "Amy could have made that part up as well."
Sonic began taking steps back as they stepped forward. Out of all of them, Dr. Eggman looked the angriest. "I put so much work into getting you to choose me, and you just throw it all away!"
"Well, I didn't want others to know about the tournament, and you ruined that, so I think we're even," Sonic said as he looked for an escape route.
They continued to approach Sonic. Their concentration was ruined when Amy said, "Oh well, I still love you Sonic."
"I find that scarier than you being angry with me." He waved his hands to get them to stop. "Okay, I know you're mad, but what happened wasn't something I did to mess with you. Pit was the one that set this up. So how about we let Pit get what he deserves."
"How do we do that?" Knuckles asked.
Sonic looked at Tails who was still holding his diary. "Do you think you can get your strongest Sonic robot here."
Tails smiled. "Just give me a few seconds."
Pit sat in the cafeteria enjoying an ice cream sundae. He was pleased with the results of his mischief. Most of the stuff was done because of Sonic and his friends, but he did a few small things. He had done more than tell Sonic a few lies and let Sonic's friends know where he was. He had been able to amplify the sound so it would annoy the other smashers. He had gotten Kirby to eat the chili dogs before Sonic was able to get some. He even was able to make Shadow the one to appear as the assist trophy between Sonic and Samus. He laughed as he thought about that chase that ended at the waterfall. He had been able to watch every second.
He was startled as he felt something grab his shoulder. He turned to see Sonic gasping and looking around frantically. He looked straight at Pit and said, "I need your help."
"What kind of help?"
Sonic was about to say something, but a bang behind him made him look all around. "I need you to take this." He held out a ring that he hadn't put away.
"Why?"
"Tails was disappointed when Master Hand said he wasn't taking my nomination." Pit tried to resist laughing the best he could. "Tails sent something after me. It follows me because of this ring."
"Then why should I take it."
"The robot can track the ring, but it will only attack if it's sure the holder is Sonic. PLEASE, TAKE IT!" Another bang made Sonic look over his shoulder again.
"Okay, I'll help."
Sonic smiled as Pit grabbed the ring. "Thank you." Sonic began running off, but stopped partway. "Oh, and I know all about your trick." He ran off without another word.
Now Pit was scared. He started wondering what Sonic meant by trick. He was hoping he meant something else, but he knew exactly what Sonic was talking about. A noise behind him made Pit turn. He saw a robot that looked quite similar to Sonic. It looked at Pit first. After that, it glanced at the ring. It began speaking in a metallic version of Sonic's voice. "Subject holds a ring. Sonic collects ring. Conclusion, subject is Sonic."
"What?" The robot looked like it was ready to run. "I'm not Sonic. Do I look like Sonic?" He looked down at the ring and tried to drop it. He was shocked when he realized no matter how hard he tried to, he couldn't let go. He tried banging it on a table, but all it did was hurt his hand. He turned to the robot and saw it run forward. The robot jumped and kicked Pit in the face. Pit crashed onto the ground as the robot landed lightly. Pit kicked the robots legs out from under him. Pit started running off as the robot hit the ground.
Pit ran through the mansion as he kept looking back. He barged through the front doors and stopped underneath a tree close by. As he sat there, he began to hear a beeping noise. He looked down at the ring and saw a small red light flashing. He was startled when he heard the mansion doors slam open. He saw the robot. Pit ran off with the robot close behind.
Up on a nearby hill, Sonic and all of his friends burst out in laughter. "I think we do revenge a lot better than Pit does," Sonic said.
"Yeah," Dr. Eggman said. "We could make a great team. Who agrees to that idea?"
"Would we be good?" Amy asked.
"No," Eggman said. Everyone quickly said no. (Except Shadow who said maybe.)
"So how long will the robot me chase Pit?" Sonic asked.
"Until he gets the ring off or the robot's battery dies," Tails said.
"How long will the battery last?" Knuckles asked.
"About two weeks. And he won't get the ring off quickly. I used gorilla glue." They all turned in time to see the sunset. It was very tranquil, with the exception of Pit's screaming. "I think I'll head in." Tails said. They all began to head in. Tails turned around and saw Sonic still on the hill. "Are you coming?"
Sonic shook his head. "Nah, I needed to relax. Plus, he put me through a lot, and I want to join every second of it."
Tails smiled. "Bye Sonic," Tails said. Sonic waved bye and closed his eyes. Tails shut the door and headed for the guest rooms he had been provided with. The last thing he heard before dozing off was a final scream of pain from Pit.
