Chapter Seven – Running for the Wet Hills
Alvin stared at the red swat bots before heading down in a straight dive towards Tail's hideout. Straightening himself out before landing on both of his feet, he managed to get the flames to disappear before running back in. "Guys. We got to move. Robots are approaching from this evil robotnik guy. Get all the essentials such as food and instruments" he yelled as he raced around the place.
Simon and Tails responded first by rolling up several sheets of blueprints that contains ideas for machines. Theodore and Eleanor started to load the instruments on to the van whilst Jeanette and Brittany ransack the house for any money or any other valuables. Alvin grabbed his dagger, sheathed it in his belt before picked up his gun that he brought a few days ago and checked the magazine. It was full loaded therefore Alvin checked the outside. The robots seem to be fast approaching. "Tails. Where is the nearest hiding place?" yelled Alvin, never taking his eyes off the approaching robots.
"That would be the Mobian forest." Said Tails before he loaded several boxes of food on to the van.
"Simon. How are we doing?" yelled Alvin.
"Give us another five minutes and we will have it all." Said Simon.
"We got about three! Get it done faster." Yelled Alvin. The van was now three quarters of the way full of their equipment and the robots seem to be stalling. Alvin watched as two people walked to the front.
It was the Wolf and canine. "Chipmunks. You have one minute exit the premises." Yelled the Wolf in armour. At this, Alvin swore before turning to the van which was now fully loaded.
"We'll never get away unless they see us. Simon. I gotta talk with them. Take the van and head to the forest. Don't stop for nothing. Got it!" said Alvin before chucking the gun over to Simon. Simon caught it with one hand before nodding. All the others got on board the van apart from Brittany who gave Alvin a small hug.
"You and your stupid ideas." Whispered Brittany.
"Hey. Listen. I'm not going down today to a bunch of robots. I promise you that." Said Alvin as he placed his hands on Brittany's cheeks.
"Is this one of those promises that you'll keep." Said Brittany, a small smile on her lips.
"Sure. You'll get bored without me around." Said Alvin, earning a chuckle.
"I'll miss our fights which I'll always win." Said Brittany before walking off to the van. It took off under the darkness. Alvin sighed before walking out to the front of the door to hear that the wolf had started a countdown of ten seconds. As the wolf said "One!" Alvin exited the building to find several robots pointing their weapons at him. Alvin then placed his hands in the air.
"dude. What's with all the guns?" asked Alvin, a cocky smile emerging.
"Silence Chipmunk." Said the Wolf.
"It's Alvin dumbass. Hope you can remember that." said Alvin.
"Why should I? You'll be taken to be Robotnik. He can therefore deciede your punishment along with Queen Aleena." Said Sleet, looking for any reaction. There was none. "Why no reaction? Don't you care about her?"
"Listen dude. I just got here. Have no idea what the hell happens around here apart from robotnik is an evil dicator and that there is a band called Sonic Underground. Beyond that, haven't got a clue." Said Alvin as a robot approached and handcuffed him. "Hey. Easy on the wrists!" said Alvin.
In a cell, two hours later
A hedgehog violet-eggplant hair and cloak, as well as magenta skin. Her crown and the slightly thick piece of cloth at the front end of her cloak is gold. While her armour covering her body is white, the jewel on the middle of it is cerise. A small cut placed on her left cheek which served as momento of a torture session.
The cage she was in was a prision cell. With the only source of light, a small gap in the walls with several bars that blocked any possible escape.
Queen Aleena sighed before readjusting her robe to fight off the coldness that was entering the cell. Robotnik had said that she'll stay here for a while so she best get comfortable.
The door hissed open and Alvin was thrown in on his face. He was up in an instant and he yelled "Come on. If you think you are so hard why don't you fight me munk to wolf." At Sleet before getting the door slammed in his face. Alvin swore before turning around to find him face to face with a purple hedgehog. "Who are you?" asked Alvin.
"You don't know who I am?" asked Aleena, surprised for once because of all the wanted posters that were posted around the entire kingdom.
"No." Said Alvin. "I'm a traveller."
"Well. I'm Aleena. What's your name?" Asked Aleena.
"I'm Alvin." Said Alvin, extending a hand. Aleena smiled before shaking it. "So got any ideas how to get out of here."
"Yes. We wait for my husband to rescue me." Said Aleena, a small smile gracing her features.
"Your husband? How is he going to help us?" asked Alvin.
"One. In my wedding ring is a tracker. Two, he is one of the greatest warriors I know." Said Aleena. And at that moment, a alarm went off.
"Security breach! Security breach! Sector 7 has been invaded!"
Alvin forced himself to stand, using the bars on the cell for support. "And Three, He will never stop." Said Aleena. a faint sound of sparks and crashing metal, like a robot was being destroyed. It repeated, only it was closer this time, and Alvin thought he could hear something else…
Like air being spun at rapid speed.
Again, the sounds were heard, only this time, it sounded only one room away.
Suddenly, the door to the room Aleena and Alvin was in exploded, and tiny pieces of scrap metal flew everywhere. In the doorway, a crown on his head and a look of pure rage which melted into a loving smile, stood a black hedgehog with red stripes.
Guess who. What do you think of that?
