...Whoops?

Chapter 19: Temple Trouble

*White Chaos Temple: Zaos' POV*

I sigh as I finish the hundredth game of tic-tac-toe with my sister, the girl squealing in delight as she beats me. "Yay! I won!" She points at me, "In your face Zaos!" I grunt in annoyance, shortly after noticing that the temple doors opening, "Good...I was just about to strangle my sister here..." I think to myself as I rise to my feet and walk over to the large structure, my sister cheering me on from behind me. "Good luck big brother!" She yells at me, causing a smile to appear on my face. Despite here slightly annoying personality, I still love that girl.

I look around at the temple walls, various engravings from different time periods littered all over them. "If this one is anything like the last one..." I say to myself as I walk into the room, with the pedestal in the middle of it. "Well, they certainly lack originality, that's for sure." I mutter to myself as I approach the pedestal, pressing the button without a word. Soon afterwards, the entire room is bathed in a white light, causing me to cover up my eyes. When I lower my arms I see a bat Mobian made of pure white Chaos Energy standing in front of me. "So, I take it you're the one who guards this temple?"

"Yes, I am the spirit of the guardian of the white Chaos Emerald..." The bat replies, before walking down a nearby corridor. I follow her and look around the chamber with surprise, it was completely empty! Before I could think, the bat shoots my in the face with a ball of energy, causing me to collapse. "Good luck." Is all I hear from her before I lose consciousness.

*Abyss of Chaos: Zaos' POV*

I groggily wake up, slowly making my way to my feet as I look around at the white void. Soon enough, countless green beings appear, some running to attack me, while others strike at each other, and the rest fleeing for their lives. Weirdest of all is that they all resemble Mobians, varying in species. "What in the hell is going on?!" I yell as I dodge the group after me.

*Play Bullet Station from Sonic Heroes*

I grunt as I catch the punch of an echidna, barely able to hold my ground. "So...these guys retain properties of those heroes eh?" I think to myself as I watch a hedgehog speed toward me. I wrap my hand around the echidna's fist and swing him around, slamming him into the hedgehog and watching the two disappear. "You're not nearly as durable though." I say aloud, my attention snapping to another echidna, preparing to smash a fox's face in. I zoom over there, kicking the echidna in the head, which throws him from the fox as I help the energy being up. It gives me what I believe is a smile, before disappearing in a white light.

"That was different than the other two..." I mutter, referring to when the other two vanished, they had looked like they were being sucked down into a void. I look around the room, spotting several of the beings running for their lives as mobs chase them. Eventually, the four of them are surrounded as the mob seems to chuckle darkly, preparing to rip the poor things apart. I teleport from where I am and reappear in the middle of the circle, greatly startling all of the beings.

"So...who wants to go first?" I ask blandly, several of the things charging me at once. I smirk and raise my hands, catching them all in the chest mid-jump with Chaos Spears. "Come on! Surely that's not all?" I ask them mockingly, I soon realize my mistake as the entire mob charges me, causing me to quickly become frantic. "Crap, Chaos Dome!" I yell, raising the protective dome over myself and the four beings near me, the others outside punching, kicking, and even biting the dome in an attempt to break through. "Geez, and I thought I was messed up..." I mutter, approaching the wall of the dome, before slamming my fist into it, creating a shockwave that flings all of the things on the outside away, causing each and every one of them to dissipate.

"And they all bite the dust, heh."

*End Song*

I walk up to the beings that are huddled on the ground, consisting of three hedgehogs and a fox...but...is that fox glowing white instead of green? I raise an eyebrow before shaking it off, "Hey, I'm not going to hurt you, okay?" I tell the group, causing them all to relax a bit before the fox runs up and hugs me, surprising me as it responds while the group of hedgehog seems to smile. "Somebody came..." My eyes widen, wait, someone should have been here before right? "Wait...wasn't somebody else here already?" I ask the fox, who looks up at me with teary eyes, seeming to come more into focus by the second. "Yeah...but they didn't even notice me...they left me here..." The fox responds, my expression changing to shock. Who could've done that I wonder?

I look down at the fox with a smile, "Well, I'm here now." I tell him, the fox smiling as he changes from a white silhouette to an actual fox. He has snow white fur and emerald green eyes. He is around 3' 4" and is wearing white gloves with blue tennis shoes, a black crescent shape covering the front half of the shoe. He also is wearing a torn pair of blue jeans. "I'm Zaos...What's your name?" I ask the fox, receiving an eager replying. "My name is Snow, Mr. Zaos!" I wince, Mr. Zaos? I never was one for authority or respect...though that might be because I've lived on the streets my whole life. "Well Snow...what say we get out of here?" I ask the fox, receiving a large grin in response.

"Yes please!"

*Cyan Chaos Temple: Sonic's POV*

I smirk as the doors open, cheering out loud as I dash into the structure, sprinting down the halls as I reach the pedestal room. I screech to a halt and push the button, having read it all before. Suddenly, a cyan light fills the room, forming into the shape of a hedgehog. "Cool! Someone I relate to!" I yell, holding my hand out to the spirit, receiving nothing but silence as I awkwardly pull my hand back. "So...I take it you're the guardian of this temple?" I ask the spirit, who nods and heads down the hall behind him without a word. I quickly follow him, not wanting to be left behind. When we step into a large circular room, a trap door is triggered below me. At first I was about to maneuver my way out of the pit, until the hedgehog spirit took it upon himself to kick me in the gut, sending me down the pit at a faster speed then before.

*Abyss of Speed*

I manage to flip myself upright as I land on my feet with grace, looking around at the blue void. Suddenly, the world morphs, transforming into..."Green Hill Zone..."

*Play Green Hill Modern from Sonic Generations*

I smirk as the familiar scenery appears around me, along with the even more familiar enemies. "Oh, you all want some of this?" I taunt them, a squad of Buzz Bombers flying in my direction. I smile and run forward, hopping off of the rocks in the area to avoid the squads fire as I continue my sprint around a loop and off of an upward angled cliff, using my momentum to carry me across the gap as I roll into a ball to lessen the impact, cutting through a Motobug on my way as I pick up the pace, looking like nothing more than a blue wave as I smash through any and everything that gets in my way. I see a large rotating gold ring at the end of my path, causing me to raise an eyebrow as I touch it, the entire world dissolving and reforming, this time becoming Chemical Plant Zone.

*Change to Chemical Plant Classic from Sonic Generations*

"Whoa..." I look around in surprise at the sudden change, before just barely dodging a row of blue liquid that shoots out at me, descending into another pipe on the other side of it. I shake my head and dash down the path, becoming cautious as I see the pink water ahead. "Alright...GO!" I increase my speed, dashing across the surface of the water and jumping as I reach a wall, jumping back and forth from it and another wall, before landing on the flat surface above the two walls, and more importantly, the water. I barely move as a small spiked robot shoots two yellow projectiles at me. I respond by curling into a ball in midair, crushing the small bot before I roll down a nearby slope, letting momentum carry me at an extreme speed before I rocket off the side of a ramp, uncurling to see the giant ring below me. I tuck my arms and legs in, descending at a rapid pace and touching the ring, causing this world to disappear as well, being replaced with Mushroom Hill Zone.

*Change to Mushroom Hill Modern from Sonic Generations 3DS*

I duck and roll as a mole throws a tiny shroom at me, jumping over the hole that he was at and continuing on my way. I scoff as I see a rooster ahead, the bird trying to blow me back, but to no avail as I simply ramp up my speed, outrunning the wind he produces and curling into a ball before impact with the metal bird, blowing it to pieces. I continue running full speed as I weave in-between a few dragonflies with spiked tails, eventually seeing the ring up ahead. I grab onto a nearby swing, swinging myself around and around as I build up momentum until I let go at the top of my swing, curling into a ball and only uncurling the moment before I come into contact with the giant ring, changing my surroundings to the Speed Highway of Station Square.

*Change to Speed Highway Modern from Sonic Generations*

I rocket down the roads, shortly afterwards having about a dozen of Eggman's 'police mechs chasing me as I do. I smirk, rolling into a ball and dropping my speed, pushing myself off of the ground just as they're about to run me over. I crush one of the bots, commandeering his vehicle and driving off with it, laughing out loud as I do. The others quickly catch up to me, but I do a little bumper cars, ramming my own hovercraft into one of theirs and jumping out, causing the resulting explosion to take out all but three of them. I hit the ground running, weaving through the various tunnels and such of the city before I hitch a ride on the bottom of a helicopter, the 'police' not really knowing what to do anymore. I spot the ring on a platform below me and dive toward it, grabbing it as everything changes to the deep Green Forest.

*Change to Green Forest from Sonic Adventure 2*

Suddenly, I notice explosions happening behind me and I pale, quickly taking off to avoid being caught in them. "Nice welcome, the island is already detonating!" I scream in my head as I grind on a nearby vine, leaping off of it and grabbing onto one that is dangling, using it to reach a cliff above me before I continue my sprint. I spot a troop of G.U.N. robots ahead, all of them having their guns trained on me. "Out of the way, coming through!" I yell, curling into a ball and spinning at a rapid rate, shredding two of the bots before I sprint past the rest, the machines being caught in the explosions. I see the ring up ahead, but as I try to run to it all of the platforms below me start to collapse! I curse, jumping from platform to platform as the explosions quickly start to catch up with me. I just BARELY manage to touch the ring in time, the tip of my tail being singed by the flames. "Ouch..." I mutter as the world changes to the Power Plant of Grand Metropolis.

*Change to Power Plant from Sonic Heroes*

"How long is this going to go on?!" I scream as I barely avoid being impaled by an Egg Pawn. I jump to my feet and kick the robot off the side of the pit, watching as it falls to its doom. I spin around and avoid another attack from a turtle robot. I start to circle around the robot, flipping it through the air before I jump off of a nearby wall and meet it mid-fall, slicing it in two with my Spin Dash before I hit the ground, rocketing through the loops and twists of this place. I reach a section where I cannot continue unless I smash all of the robots. "Well alright then!" I yell triumphantly as three of Eggman's flying mechs appear. I run forward, avoiding the gunfire from the blue one, jumping into the air afterwards and slamming my leg into it via an axe kick, causing to robot to explode after I leap off of it. The green one tries to shoot me with a much slower yellow projectile. I scoff and walk around the shot to show how slow it is, before jumping and doing a mid-air Spin Dash through the robot, stopping in front of the red one, which does absolutely nothing. "Uh...okay?" I say, kicking the robot further into the air before I leap up above it and spike it into the ground, destroying it and revealing the gold ring to me.

"Heh, forget what I said earlier, this is way too much fun!"

Alright, NOW I won't disappear. I'll take to make uploads more frequent, rather than taking random hiatuses all the time. But, see ya until next time.
