Ch 7: Meeting Cyrus
Meeting Cyrus
Each group arrived at the Sanctuary entrance. "I don't see it." said Tails, searching the area.
"Because it's disguised just like your entrance, but has a different way of opening it." Sonic says, then pulls on one of the rocks scattered across the ground. A boulder jutted out of the ground, a screen was placed in the middle showing a lion.
"Who are you and what do you want?" it said in a serious tone.
"Yo, Cyrus, calm down, it's me, Sonic." said the blue hedgehog.
"You have to prove yourself as the real Sonic. This is the first test." the lion never said anything. Five seconds later, Sonic was losing his patience.
"Are you gonna tell me what the first test is." he said, tapping his foot.
"You passed the first test, because Sonic has a short patience span. The second test is a trivia. When and where did I meet Sonic for the first time?" Cyrus said.
"On my second birthday near Glasten Lake." he replied
"Correct, now the final test is the easiest. Show me your medallion and activate it." Sonic did just as Cyrus said. "You are the real Sonic, come in." A piece of the ground lifted to reveal an underground tunnel. As they traveled down, Sally asked.
"How do you know Cyrus?"
"We were best friends before I joined the freedom fighters. He's a mechanic, just like Rotor and Tails." Sonic answered. They finally made to the end of the tunnel.
"Hi Sonic, Sonia, Manic, long time no see. Who are they?" he said, looking at the rest of the crew.
"This is the Knothole Freedom Fighters, the group I was in before I found my siblings. This is Sally, princess of the Acorn Kingdom. This is my other best friend, Tails; he's like a little brother to me. This is Rotor, our main mechanic. This is Amy; she can create a Piko-Piko hammer and has a crush on me. This is Antoine; he has good swordsmanship, but has a hard time pronouncing words right with the French accent. And this is Bunnie, we were able to rescue her from the roboticizer, but was already partly roboticized. Her robotic parts help us in many of our missions because of her super strength." said Sonic, pointing at each person.
"Nice to meet you." Cyrus said.
"Thank you, we're happy to meet you, too." said Sally.
"Anyway, why you come all the way here."
"We were heading to the Syrian Desert to stop another one of Robotnik's plan."
"I was about to contact sonic and his sibs on the same thing. I wonder what he is building with those emeralds."
Robotropolis
"Those pesky freedom fighters might have survived my Swatbots, but they will soon perished by my Freedom Destroyer 3000. It will destroy them in one blast, then nothing can stop me. Snively get my hover car ready, we're heading to the Syrian Desert." said Robotnik, grinning evily.
"Yes, sir." said Snively, heading out the room.
