Chapter Fourteen: Silver's Future, Part 2
Not a little while ago, Metal Sonic used the power of the legendary time stones to send him and Silver two hundred years into the future. Now, Metal confronts his creator, Eggman Nega, once more. "So you have returned, have you? You haven't responded to any of my temporal transmissions for the past three years. I figured that you had most likely been destroyed." Nega said. "You only half right. It's true that I was destroyed during my first encounter with that blasted hedgehog. I clearly underestimated him. It took me three years before I could fully recover." Metal explained, leaving out the part where he betrayed Nega's ancestor. "And what would be the cause of your sudden transformation?" Nega asked curiously. "I simply added my original programming with the programming for the Solaris Project." Metal explained. "Solaris Project? Never heard of it." Nega stated. 'Just as I had hoped for.' Metal thought. "Anyway, I have returned to you, master, and am here to assist you in the defeat of that cursed hedgehog." Metal said. "Well, in that case, follow me." Nega ordered and led Metal through a door on the other side of the room.
Nega pushed through the door to reveal a gigantic manufacturing line creating over a dozen Metal Sonic's at a time. "Hmm. So this is the place where I was created?" Metal said wondrously. "No. you were a special creation, Metal. I constructed you personally with the best components, making you faster, stronger, more agile, and more intelligent. In other words, you were my greatest creation." Nega bragged. 'He really is Eggman's descendent. He just keeps going on and on and on.' Metal mentally complained. "So, any idea's?" Nega asked. "None yet. But, if you will take three of these lesser mechs out to distract the heroes, I should be able to construct something to destroy them." Metal said. "Very well." Nega said. Nega walked up to the control console and pressed a random button. Three holes eroded from the floor and the Metal Sonic robots appeared. "I trust that you will be able to finish." Nega said. "I only exist to serve you." Metal said as he bowed to his creator. Nega walked out of the room with the mechs following behind and closed the door behind him. "If I still had my obedience chip, you ignorant fool." Metal said as soon as Nega was gone.
Metal walked up to the console and began accessing the files in Nega's private computer. "Access private data files." Metal commanded. The computer suddenly switched on and showed a folder on the screen, but was blocked by a password security wall. "Input password." The computer asked. Metal suddenly stabbed the keyboard and sent a surge of electricity into the computer. "Access granted." The computer said as it opened the file. "Access original Metal Sonic project designs." Metal ordered. The files opened to show Metal's original design that he was made from. Metal then stabbed the computer and pulled a large wire from inside and attached it to his head. "Download Metal Sonic designs." Metal ordered. "Initiating download...Download complete." The computer stated. Once he had the information in his head, Metal ripped the wire and destroyed the computer with an electric charge. "Good, everything is going according to plan. Now, to dispose of the infuriating hedgehog. It shouldn't be too hard to create something. After all, I have all the resources I need." Metal laughed as he grazed down at the mechs being constructed.
Meanwhile, Silver was taken to the new G.U.N. command center in the middle of Future City where he was taken to be healed. Thanks to the advancement of modern technology, Silver's major chest wound was reduced to a measly little scratch. Silver, Shadow, and Kumori were sitting around the infirmary as Kumori was telling stories of what happened since Silver had been gone. "I can't believe I missed that. So you saying Sonic actually got down on his knees and begged Amy to marry him?!" Silver asked, followed up by a roar of insane laughter. "Yep. I told Amy playing hard to get would work and I was right." Kumori giggled. "And Recter approved of this?" Silver asked. "Hell no. Sonic and Amy were engaged for two years before they actually got married." Shadow chuckled. "Oh man, I can't believe I missed all this. Hey, what ever happened to Blaze?" Silver asked. Shadow and Kumori suddenly went silent and looked downcast. "Guys...what happened to Blaze?" Silver asked with worry and his friend's reaction. "Silver...after you disappeared, Blaze was killed by Violet." Shadow revealed. "What?!" Silver screamed. "We're sorry." Kumori said.
Silver couldn't believe this. His one true love was dead and it was his entire fault. All of a sudden, the alarms around the base went off. "What's happening?" Silver questioned. "Eggman Nega has been spotted in sector G-3. Special force team requested to stop potential threat." A woman over the loudspeaker said. "Look's like we're up. Let's go, Silver." Shadow ordered. "Right." Silver changed from depressed to serious and ran out with the other two. Out in the city, Nega was floating around as the three Metal Sonics destroyed the stores nearby. "If this doesn't get there attention, nothing will." Nega said. "You know, I could be easier just to call us." Nega looked to the top of an electronics store to find the three hedgehogs, just as he had planned. "You know, you're really slow for the fastest thing alive, Shadow." Nega mocked. "And you seem quite dumb for a so-called genius. Do you really think the same thing will work twice?" Shadow returned. "Oh, don't worry. I have something special up my sleeve. But for now, Metal Sonic's, attack!" Nega commanded. The Metal copies turned their attention away from their previous mission and charged forward to the hedgehogs. "They never learn, do they?" Shadow said.
Shadow and the other two hedgehogs jumped down from the rooftop to combat their opponents. The first Metal Sonic copy swung its claw at Shadow's head, which the black hedgehog easily ducked down and dodged. The copy then tried to kick Shadow from behind, only to have its foot caught. "Come on, I'm one of the legendary three. You'll have to do much better then that." Shadow stated. Shadow spun the mech around and slammed his fist through its chest to destroy it. The second Metal Sonic copy attempted to claw at Kumori, but the female hedgehog flipped the mech over her head and kicked it from behind. "Being married to Shadow, a girl has to be ready." Kumori said. The made a second attempt to attack, but Kumori ripped off its and was kicked its head off all in one swing. Silver was left to face the Metal Sonic copy. After the news he received earlier, he was clearly pissed off. "I've had enough of you for one day!" Silver shouted. The grey hedgehog held out his hands and forcefully gripped the copy with his psychokinetic powers. Silver was merciless as he ripped the mech apart, piece by piece.
The mech parts were scattered across the street as Nega started sweating up a storm. "You know, maybe it would be a good idea if I just left." Nega said. But before Nega could even make an attempt to escape, Silver used his psychokinetic powers to halt the Egg-mobile. "You're not going anywhere!" Silver explained. Silver clutched his hand and crushed the Egg-mobile, forcing Nega to the ground. "Look's like it's all over, Nega." Shadow said a he held a pair of laser handcuffs. But all of a sudden, Metal appeared out of nowhere and kicked Shadow away. "I knew you would save me, Metal." Nega said. "I am not here for you, fool." Metal said. "What?!" Nega exclaimed. "I was merely using you." Metal stated. "How dare you?!" Nega screamed. "Now that your job is done, it's my turn to take action." Metal said as he snapped his claws. Suddenly, a nearby tower was reduced to shambles as a new creature appeared before them. The heroes were surprised to find that the monster was...Metal Madness. "Amazing what a few spare copies can do. Metal Madness, destroy the black hedgehogs. Leave the grey one to me." Metal commanded. "Yes, master." Metal Madness replied.
Metal Madness lunged his claws at Shadow and Kumori, which the two hedgehogs easily jumped aside. Silver was about to join them when he was kicked to the side of the head. Silver groan as he sat up to see Metal only a few feet away from him. "I think you should be more concerned with me." Metal said. "You! This is all your fault!" Silver yelled. Using his psychic powers, Silver ripped over a dozen lamp posts and hurtled them at Metal. Just as they were only a foot away from the metallic menace, Metal's eyes lit up and the lamp posts stopped in midair. "Have you already forgotten? I have copied your data. All your abilities are mine." Metal stated. Using the copied psychic powers, Metal threw all the lamp posts back at Silver. Silver reacted quickly by creating a force field to repel the flying objects away. Just as he let his force field down, Metal came from out of nowhere and held his metallic claw over his head. "METAL SURGE!" Metal called out. Lucky for Silver, he jumped away just in time to dodge it. But then, Metal flexibly spun his foot around and kicked Silver to the wall. "Is that all you got?" Metal mocked. "Not even close!" Silver stated.
Metal Madness retracted his claws from the ground and stared with menacing eyes at the female black hedgehog standing atop of the building ahead of him. "I never once thought I would see your ugly mug again. Believe me, once is more then enough." Kumori chuckled. Metal Madness opened its jaw wide and fired a giant red beam at Kumori. With a surprised expression, Kumori quickly jumped to the air and over the beam. Kumori looked at the damage the beam had caused. The red beam not only went through the building she was on, but also the buildings that followed it. There was a large heated hole from where the beam struck. "Ok, that's different. Last time, Metal Madness could only use ice attacks." Kumori stated. "I am much different." Kumori finally realized that she was still in the air and Metal Madness was directly in front of her. Metal Madness' tail whipped around from the other side and slammed Kumori straight down into the pavement. Metal Madness lifted his tail and looked down at his battered opponent. Metal Madness opened his mouth to charge another heat beam until a series of yellow energy arrows exploded on the side of its face.
Metal Madness screeched in pain and looked over to where the attack came from to see who would dare to strike at him. It was Shadow as he snapped his fingers to summon up over two thousand yellow arrows of chaos around his body. "CHAOS BOMBARDMENT!" Shadow called out as the arrows left his side and drove themselves into Metal Madness. Upon making contact with Metal Madness, the arrow created a series of large explosions that blew off several pieces of Metal Madness' armor. "You'll pay for that!" Metal Madness screamed. Metal Madness swung his long spiked tail around and struck down on Shadow. In a split second, Shadow reached behind his back and pulled out a special G.U.N. gun and pressed a button on it to transform into a sword handle with a blade of yellow chaos. Shadow swung his blade upwards to sever the metal tail from the rest of the body. Metal Madness screeched in pain, giving Shadow the opportune moment to attack. Using the power of chaos control, Shadow vanished and then reappeared in midair in front of Metal Madness. Shadow reeled back his blade and cut Metal Madness straight down the middle, creating an explosion from its destruction.
Metal swatted away Silver's fist as they grey hedgehog attempted to fight him in hand-to-hand combat. Realizing Silver couldn't win with his powers, they grey hedgehog was forced to fight head on. "You don't really think you can win with those pathetic moves. Your form is way off balance." Metal stated. To prove his point, Metal pressed a finger on Silver's forehead as he attempted to make another hit. As Metal predicted, Silver was thrown off balance and fell flat on his back. "Give it up. Your abilities stand no chance against mine. I have used your powers to an extent that you cannot possibly imagine." Metal stated. "It's true that you may be able to use my powers better then me, but there is one thing I have that you could never copy." Silver said. "And that would be?" Metal asked. "The inability to give up. Look up." Silver said. Metal did as Silver asked a looked up to see a slag of stone hanging over his head. Silver waved his hands down and released the slag from midair. The slag fell on top of Metal and crushed him underneath the rubble. "Glad that's over." Silver sighed in relief. "Guess again." Metal's voice echoed from the rubble.
The rubble suddenly exploded and Metal was still standing, even after crushed. "I must admit, you are persistent. It doesn't matter now. Our time in this place has expired." Metal said. Just then, the time stones along with the yellow chaos emerald floated from behind Metal and over his head. "You had them the entire time?" Silver asked in surprise. "Yes. I knew we would need a way to get back home. Now, CHAOS TEMPUS!" Metal shouted. The chaos emerald then shot out seven beams of light that struck the time stones and created a white vortex behind Metal. "Time to go." Metal said. "You're actually letting me return?" Silver questioned suspiciously. "It wouldn't be much fun if I only had three hedgehogs to battle." Metal joked. "Go on, Silver." Silver looked back to see Shadow and Kumori along side an arrested Nega. "This is your chance. Use it to make things right and save Blaze." Shadow said. Silver smiled and nodded his head in acknowledgment. Silver and Metal exchanged a single glance before stepping through the vortex back home.
Back in the present, it had been only two seconds since Metal and Silver disappeared into the vortex. "Silver? Silver!" Blaze screamed. "It's too late, he's gone." Mecha said bluntly. "Now, to dispose of the trash." Violet said as she squeezed inside her chaos prison. Blaze cried out, but no hope seemed to arrive. Just as it had seemed to be the end, Silver came from out of nowhere and placed his hand on Violet's head. "PSYCHIC SCREW!" Silver called. Silver blasted a typhoon of energy that sent Violet flying, releasing Blaze in the process, and crashed into Mecha. "You filthy little rat!" Mecha exclaimed as he stood up. Mecha was prepared to charge at Silver until Metal appeared out of nowhere and blocked him off. "Metal?" Mecha asked. "The mission is complete. There is no reason to be here." Metal said. "Mecha was about to argue when he noticed the look in Metal's eyes. A look of killer intent. Realizing that there was no point in going against Metal's orders, Mecha raised his hand into the sky. "CHAOS CONTROL!" Mecha called out and all the villains disappeared in a flash.
"What just happened?" Blaze questioned, still gasping for air after being trapped in Violet's prison for so long. "Well, it's a long story." Silver while giving the biggest smile Blaze had ever seen. Silver and Blaze spent to the next ten minutes resting on a boulder near Never Lake as Silver explained the events that went on. "Wow, that's some story. Although I do find it hard to believe that Shadow and Kumori will be married." Blaze said. "Believe me; I was just as shocked when I found out." Silver chuckled. "The future is such a curious thing." Blaze stated. Silver placed his hand on Blaze's and said. "There is no future without you, Blaze." Blaze chuckled. "Do you know how corny that sounds?" Blaze said. "Yeah." Silver said sheepishly. "But it's the thought that counts." Blaze whispered. Blaze cupped the side of Silver's face a brought him in for a deep and passionate kiss. Then two stayed that way for what seemed like hour, unaware that the Little Planet was still hanging over the lake.
Meanwhile, the Egg-Carrier III floated across the Atlantic Ocean, while Metal stood before Eggman, Bokkun, Mecha, and Violet. "So, did everything go according to plan?" Eggman asked. "Every single step. I have all the data of my original design up here." Metal emphasized by tapping his head. "So, shall be begin reconstructing your little soldiers." Mecha asked as he gazed to the side of the room where Metal's four mechanical minions stood across the wall. "No. without the proper DNA, they will not be able to perform as I had planned them to." Metal said. "What?! What do you mean we won't be able to reconstruct them?!" Eggman screamed furiously. "Just as Mecha and I were created from DNA, so will these four be reconstruct too." Metal said. "Can we just grab some DNA from the city?" Bokkun asked. "No! I have four specific types of DNA I wish to use." Metal stated. "Then all this as for nothing." Violet sighed. "Well...it wasn't a total lose." Metal said. the villains looked to him curiously. They then noticed that Metal still had the chaos emerald and the time stones floated above him. This battle was far from over.
Meanwhile, in the forest outside the town of Soleanna. A white vortex similar to the one Metal used appeared in the center of the forest. out of the vortex came a giant rock before the vortex closed. the rock just laid there, motionless. Then suddenly, the rock opened up to reveal two blood red eyes. A monsterous roar echoed throughout the forest.
Metal and Silver return home, but Metal still has the time stones. What will Metal do with them? Who's DNA is he after? And what is this new creature that has appeared? Stay tuned to find out.
