One chaotix time
chapter 6

-Hospital-
Sonic zipped into the building and ran to the counter before rapidly hitting the bell with Tails being held in his other arm.
"Yes?" Asked a receptionist before gasping. "Oh god! What happened?!"
"My friend fell out of a tree, he needs a doctor right now!"
"Yes, right away!" The man said while phoning in the doctor. "Yes Doctor Yuiomn? It's an emergency. And it requires surgery, yes I will tell them." He put down the phone. "Doctor Yuiomn will be with you in a few minutes."
Sonic nodded while Tails groaned.
(A few minutes later)
"Is the patient ready?" Asked a humanoid cockroach man wearing a pair of specs.
"This is him." spoke Sonic as a few nurses walked over and helped get Tails on a table.
"Mmm, looks like he got hit by something sharp and….rusted." The doctor said looking him over. "Was he hit by a rusted object or something of that nature?"
"We fought this weird robot, and he got really banged up. Can you fix him?"
"I can but it will take time." He said was the nurses moved the table away. "Especially when he got a spike ledged in his left tail."
"Take as long as you need to. I'll be busy myself." he frowned before walking out of the hospital.
"Sigh youngsters. So impatient." The doctor said while walking into the operation room.
-Back at Eggbase, Sonic's POV-
I swear as soon as I find that hunk of junk, it's gonna be nothing but scraps!
I zipped through the metal death trap like it was a cake run as my own thoughts turned to my buddy Tails and how that robot hurt him so much. Damn it to whatever hell robots go to!
I stopped when I made it inside and looked around before zipping off in a random direction. I then realized that that tin can might be in one of these room, heh perfect. I really wanna to destroy it for harming my friends! Especially Espio...wait why am I think about her now?
I stopped when I entered a room where I saw Vector who seemed to be strapped in some weird machine. Which looked like a large vacuum and another eggman walker. Can't that egghead ever think of anything new?
I ran over to the machine and started tapping on the glass. No response, great. Hmm, maybe there's a switch around here?
Crash.
-Normal POV-
A sound of a wall breaking caused Sonic to jump as a very familiar red mammal walked in with an annoyed yet shocked mood.
"Sonic? Where've you been this whole time?" frowned Knuckles. "Do you know what it's like trying to find my way around here?"
"Um no. And I just came back from the hospital."
"Wait what?"
"You heard me right. And Tails is in bad shape while some robot named SP Ex took Espio and Charmy."
"Wait, did you just say SP Ex!" Knuckles said in horror.
"Yes so?"
"Well I just got out of a room labeled SP Ex and well…." He gulped. "I saw Metal Sonic and the Tail's Doll's remains in there along with a huge robot covered in blood!"
"That damn robot is a patchwork of those two, and I don't even wanna know what that second one can do. Help me break your girlfriend out of this and we can get Espio and Charmy."
"She's not my girlfriend!" Knuckles blushed. "But I will help." he walked over to the container and started slamming his fists against the glass.
Crash!
The glass broke as Vector landed in Knuckles' arms.
"Vector? You alright?" he asked shaking her a little.
The crocodile opened its eyes and it looked like a completely white ping pong ball. "Intruder alert. Intruder alert."
"Uh, what's with her?" asked Sonic on alert.
"I don't know. She's been like this since we got here."
"Destroy intruder." Vector said before attempting to bite Knuckle's head off. But the echidna managed to grab her mouth and hold it back with a grunt.
"Yikes. This I didn't expect!" Sonic said before noticing that there were two glass containers with...Espio and Charmy inside them! "Knuckles you hold Vector at bay, I'll free the girls!"
"Destroy. Destroy."
"I'll try. But hurry, I don't want to be gator chow!" growled Knuckles as Vector's jaw got closer while he tried pushing her back with his foot.
"Destroy….Knuckles...destroy." She said while momentarily sounding like her old self.
Sonic ran over to the other containers and tried pressing random buttons to see if he could get them to open. Instead it released some robot bees the size of watermelons!
"Bzzzz!"
"Aw come on!"
"Bzzzzz!" They cried before exploding for no reason whatsoever as the force of the explosion destroyed the glass holding the two girls.
"Huh? Coincidence, but I'm not complaining."
"Ugh." Charmy groaned. "What happened? And why is there a purple ass on my face!"
"And why am I sitting on your face!" Espio cried out since the explosion caused them to fly into each other after the glass broke.
"Just get off me already mega ass!" Charmy called out. "It's crushing my head!"
Espio frowned and got off her while seeing Sonic. "Sonic? What's going on around here?"
"Well," Sonic was about to finish that line when he got hit in the face by Vector. "GAH!"
"Ugh….destroy….What's going on?...destroy." She said before charging at Knuckles, mouth open and ready to bite down hard on him.
Knuckles managed to grab the mouth and held it open while she pushed him back. "Snap out of it Vector!"
"Destroy." She said while punching him in the gut as he lost his grip and got chomped on.
"AHHH!" he cried out while feeling the teeth dig into his shoulder.
"Vector! Knock it off!" Charmy yelled before the three tackled her to the ground as she released her jaw from Knuckles' shoulder.
"Destroy. Help. Destroy!"
"Why is she acting like this?" asked Espio while they struggled to keep her jaws closed.
"Do I look like I know?" Knuckles said before Vector got out of the dogpile and charged at him. And just in time too as Knuckles instinctively punched her in the gut and caused her to spat out a robotic pigeon.
"Coo...coo." It said before exploding.
Vector's eyes returned to normal as she felt her body in massive pain from the punch. "GAH! That hurts damn it!"
"Well considering you nearly bit my arm off, we're even!" Knuckles retorted before hissing while holding the wound.
"Oh god!" She said while hugging him. "I'm so sorry! I didn't know what happened to me."
"Ah! Too tight!"
"Sorry."
"But how did this happen?" Espio asked.
"Well, I just ate a pigeon and then nothing." She admitted. "Although it tasted metallic."
"Wow, you'll eat pretty much anything." remarked Charmy.
"Like you." She glared while opening her mouth open.
"AAAHH!" Charmy screamed before hiding behind Sonic.
"I was just joking Charmy. I wouldn't eat you. Unless you were a fish or something."
"Can we focus on what's happening now? Like WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING!" screamed Espio flailing her arms around.
"Like the fact you were just captured by a patchwork robot named SP Ex, who has Metal Sonic's and the Tail's Doll's power and abilities, and sent Tails into the hospital." Sonic said with a clenched fist. "And apparently that bot was looking for an Eggvacume 4000 and a prototype chaos bot for some reason."
"And how she was a mindless doll." spoke Knuckles pointing at Vector.
"And where are the fish you promised me?"
Knuckles gulped before looking away. "Well about that...I lied. Eggman tricked me into bringing you here to use that Eggvacume 4000 on you to turn you back. He he…."
"And once again, Knuckles fell for it." Sonic shook his head.
"Hey! I thought he was honest that time." He glared. "It's not like I'm that gullible. Right?"
Everyone looked away from him.
"Right?"
"Maybe we should focus on getting out of here." spoke Espio.
"Agreed." Sonic said before noticing a small robot the size of a child that looked like Chaos holding a mini vacuum cleaner walking into the room.
"Cha?" It said before turning around and running out the door. "Cha!"
"Stop that thing!" called Sonic before Charmy flew at the robot.
"Cha!" It screamed before running even faster down the hall with the five heroes right on his tail. "Cha! Cha!"
"Get back here you wind up toy!" called Charmy.
The robot panicked even more as it reached a huge coliseum like area. "Cha!"
"Nowhere to run to now." smirked Vector.
"Cha…." It gulped nervously while shaking like a toy rattlesnake. "Cha…"
"Who wants first try?" asked Espio.
"I would you bitch." Spoke a very familiar voice as the wall next to the mini robot broke through as a large clawed hand grabbed it by the neck. "Thank you for finding it."
"Cha…" It struggled in desperation and fear. "Cha! Cha!"
"There he is!" spoke Sonic as they saw the robot walk out while the small robot struggled in its grip.
"Yep. I'm here and I have to say. Thank you for giving me the key to my ascension to Godhood!" SP Ex laughed as it's other hand held...Eggman's blooded arm! "AHAHA!"
"W...What did you do?" asked Knuckles as all of them went wide eyed.
"I did what my brother couldn't, I killed my former master!" He laughed as he revealed several bloody teeth. "That fool was nothing but a worm. He could have ruled this empire but no! He used the resources to create more robots to destroy you! Well I say NO MORE! I'm running things now and this time I'm going to kill you, your loved ones, and then become this world's God! AHAHAH!"
"Not gonna happen you piece of junk!" spoke Sonic. "You're gonna be trashed for hurting my best friend, controlling Vector, and holding Espio and Charmy hostage!"
"He he he. Typical fleshings." He said before crushing the robot as its parts got absorbed into it.
(Insert Demonic Power)
SP Ex grew in size as its color changed into a dark red and black color. It's wings split until it became twelve demonic bat like wings as its arms turned into twelve limbs of sharp claws. It's legs fused into a serpent tail with a scorpion's stinger at the end as spikes erupted all over it body. The head became more draconic as four mouths of jagged teeth appeared along with a set of pure yellow spider like eyes. "Now bow down! To your new overlord! Your new God! To SP Omnideus!"
"Yeesh, and I thought he looked ugly before." remarked Charmy.
"SILENCE WORM!" It yelled before sending a barrage of missiles from its second mouth right towards them.
All of them jumped to avoid them as they exploded and blew a large hole in the wall behind them.
"You won't dodge this one mortals!" The robot yelled as its third mouth opened up and released a swarm of robotic hornets the size of a tank right at them.
"BZZZZ!"
"Shit! Spread out and take em!" ordered Sonic.
"Fools!" The robot yelled. "You can not defeat a God!"
"We can sure try!" cried Knuckles smashing one of the hornets eyes in.
"Yea! You may look big, but you're a tin can!" Vector yelled back while biting a hornet in the abdomen.
"You are fools then!" SP Omnideus laughed before opening its fourth mouth as it spued a stream of liquid fire right at them.
Espio wrapped a wire around a hornets head and grunted before managing to pull it towards the flames as the bot exploded.
"GRRR." It growled in frustration. "You works are really getting under my skin!" It then opened its first mouth and sent a wave of liquid red acid right at them. "Taste my acidic breath!"
Charmy noticed the acidic liquid and grabbed Sonic as she flew out of the way as the liquid hit the ground, causing it to melt instantly. "Yikes, don't wanna touch that stuff."
"Yea, or I might turn into goop."
The robot growled in hate before it laughed as it opened ALL its mouths and sent everything it got at them.
Knuckles slammed his fists into the floor and grunted as he pulled the floor up to work as a shield. Only for the floor to melt and crack under the pressure.
"Any bright ideas?" Espio asked while trying to find weak points in the mad robots armor, but couldn't find any at all. "Because I personally don't want to be dead and melted by that hunk of iron!"
"Let me get in close and I'll tear its head off." growled Vector.
"And get turned into a BBQed gator." Charmy deadpanned. "Not a good idea."
"Well what did you have in mind then?"
"Hmm….wait what if we destroy each of the mouths?" Charmy suggested. "If it can't attack then Sonic could jump in and destroy it."
"And how do we destroy them if he's firing everything at once?"
"Well….he's a chatterbox right?" Espio said. "So maybe if someone distracts it while talking we could sneak up and destroy each mouth without it feeling a thing, like Vector after eating all that peanut butter cookies on Halloween."
"Hey! I didn't eat that much!"
"Well you couldn't speak for ten days so yea, you did." Charmy chuckled.
"Can we just do it already?" frowned Knuckles.
"Fine," Espio said turning to Sonic. "Just be careful. Ok?"
"Trust me, I plan to."
Espio nodded as Sonic ran out and in front of the robot.
"Oh, so you finally want to die like a common rat?" It asked while momentarily ceasing in its attacks.
"No, just had to look at you again. Trust me, this is more of a punishment to me and way worse than dying from some too bit missiles."
"WHAT!" It growled as the four other heroes ran behind the robot. "You rat! I will kill you for this BLASPHEMY!" It then fired missiles from its second mouth. "Now get exterminated like the vermin you are you blue rat!"
"It's hedgehog to you pal." Sonic yelled back was he dodged the missiles. "And if you think you're better than Eggman, then you're more delusional than he was!"
This made the robot really mad as it sent hornets right at him. Though he didn't noticed the four smaller animals climbing/flying right on its back.
"Is that all you got? Lame!" laughed Sonic running ahead of all the hornets.
"You….bastard!" It yelled before sending both acid and liquid flames right at the hedgehog. "I will make sure you suffer an agonizing death with those blasted rats with wings pecking your eyes out!"
"What rats?" Sonic boredly asked while easily dodging the attacks.
"Those seagulls! They are nothing but parasites! Like you and those bitches of yours!" It yelled while the heroes made it under the fourth mouth. "Now face the missiles of the one true God!" That was when he sent the waves of missiles right at the blue blur.
"Ok," Charmy said quietly while noticing a small red button under the fourth mouth. "Vector, Knuckles, hit the button!"
"With pleasure." Both said before pushing the button. This caused the mouth's weapons to stop working in that particular mouth.
"Good now….three more to go." Espio said while climbing towards the third mouth.
"Just stand STILL!" The bot yelled as it sent more hornets after him. "That stupid man wasn't this hard to kill. I just took out his brain and placed it into a cake!"
'Gross.' thought the mobians.
"Just stand still and I might put your brain into a cleaning bot. How does that sound?" It asked as Charmy and Espio disabled the second and third mouths. "And if you join now, I won't eat your bitch or your friends with a rusted spoon."
"Please, they're a lot stronger than you think."
"Yea right!" It yelled before Charmy disabled the first mouth. "What the!? My weapons….they're down!"
"What's the matter? Can't hit me with the other weapons?"
"You TRICKED ME!" It yelled before charging right at Sonic.
"Yep, and you took it hook, line," Sonic jumped and spun at an accelerated rate as he shot through the robots head. "And sinker."
"YOU GAH!" It yelled before falling to the ground.
"No, it's Sonic." smirked the hedgehog.
"Yes we won!" Charmy cheered. "Take that tin can!"
As they were about to leave, the robot started to change again as it started to shrink to about Sonic's size. It's wings receded back as it gained two small bird like wings, it's tail also shrunk back into two clawed legs with spikes appearing on its back and shoulders. It's head changed to a demonic version of Sonic's head with a single eye and sharp teeth. Its hands also changed until it looked like a mix between a bird's talons and Sonic's hands. And to add to it all, a extra pair of arms appeared, but it was much bigger and had the heads of crocodiles at each end.
"AHAHAHAHAH! You fools, you just released my restraints! Now fear the true power of SP Omnideus Rex!" He then in a black and red blur appeared in front of Espio and punched her into a wall as the extra hands chomped down on Knuckles, Vector and Charmy.
"AH!" the three cried out in pain.
"Yes, suffer!" The robot laughed as Espio felt the pain subside from the Chaos energy inside her. "Suffer before I eat you like cupcakes!"
"Not happening!" Sonic spin dashed at the bot.
"Foolish mortal." The robot chuckled before also spin dashing right at him and sent him flying into the wall. "I have Metal Sonic's ability to copy anything and the Tail's Doll's ability to transform! You can not hope to defeat me in my ultimate godly form."
"Then try me!" Espio yelled while throwing Kunais right at the mouths and released the three from their prisons.
(Insert United We Stand Divided We Fall)
"Go ahead! Free them!" The robot laughed. "Even if you are together, you can not possibly destroy the God of this world! You nothing but weak fleshings!"
"Wrong. We're flesh and blood, we're the ones who technically brought you and other machines into this world." spoke Sonic. "Without Eggman, you wouldn't be alive, meaning you NEEDED a fleshing just to come into the world."
The robot momentarily stopped talking as those words came to mind.
"Yea, you are not a god. But a machine." Espio spoke. "Without a fleshing as you call us, you wouldn't be existing right about now. So killing Eggman spelled your doom the minute you ended him."
"S...Shut up! I don't need anyone! I'm the TRUE GOD! I'M PERFECTION! I'M THE ONE THAT WILL BRING ORDER TO THIS WORLD!" It yelled in defiance before spin charging at them in rage.
"Vector, throw me." ordered Knuckles.
"You got it." Vector grinned before grabbing Knuckles and throwing him right at the spinning ball of death.
"Eat this metal mouth!" Knuckles swing and his fist met the bot.
"GAH!" It yelled before finding itself in the wall. "You...bastards. You dare challenge a god! Without me then another danger will destroy this world. Only I CAN stop this! My will can not BE DENIED!" It then sent its crocodile arms right at them with the intent to crush them into paste.
"Blah blah blah!" Vector ran over and grabbed the arms by the long parts and started twisting them with her arms.
"GAH!" It cried as the arms were ripped off. "You bastards! I will end you!" It then did something surprising, it opened its chest revealing a real heart with a yellow false Chaos Emerald inside. "Even if I have to blow myself into pieces to do so!"
T minus thirty seconds till complete Chaos blast. Twenty nine...twenty eight...twenty seven…
"Say goodbye to your lives mortal! And enjoy being blow to pieces AHAHAH!" It laughed with sadistic pleasure.
"We can just outrun it." spoke Sonic with a smirk. Only to get shot in the legs by the robot's laser eye.
"He he. At least my first program objective will be complete. Sonic the dead hedgehog!"
Twenty….nineteen...eighteen...seventeen…
"Sonic!" Espio cried out in fear. "Are you alright?!"
"Ow! No!" he cried out in pain with his legs bleeding. "Lousy piece of junk!"
"Yes, feel the pain of losing your powers." The robot laughed. "I wil-" it stopped talking as another familiar voice came out of its mouth. "Ohoho. Looks like my dear creation thought he could out do me, the brilliant Doctor Eggman! But not this time!"
"Eggman?" spoke Chamy in confusion.
"That right. It's me, or should I say one of a multitude of programs that were created just in case I die for unknown reasons." The program said. "And for why it's activated now, well I just wanted to tell you that that last attack gave you, my most annoying of adversary, a token of my disdain and gratitude for fighting me for so long."
"And that would be egghead?"
"New Nanobot based speed enhancers." It said with a groan. "It was meant for Sp Ex but since it tried to destroy me, I'm giving it to you."
"Say what!"
"Yes, this little gift will make sure you never need to rest or tire. Consider it my farewell gift until my new cloning machine works and I'm back in about a few hundred years but you will be long gone by then." The program then said. "Oh, and as for the timer, it's now deactivated but not the explosion so run Sonic. Run and remember, I will be back to rule the world even when your line is extinct Ohoho!" The program stopped as SP Omnideus Rex's voice returned. "What the….EGGMAN YOU BASTARD!"
Sonic looked down and saw the holes start stitching themselves back up. 'I guess egghead was right. Heh bad luck for the bot.'
The now angry robot growled. "Hear me Sonic! I curse you and your line! My spirit will return in a hundred years to destroy you! No matter what you do, I will never rest until I become the true God and see your line die by my hands! This I swear!"
"Yea yea." Sonic said before using his new found nanobot powered legs to grab everyone and get out of there as the robot exploded.
-outside and away from the site-
KABOOOOMM!
A large blast of heat and green fire appeared in the location of the Eggfortress as Sonic made it to a nearby cliff. All of them looked while bracing themselves from the shock wave that came from it.
As the shock wave dispersed, the group had a sigh of relief over come them as Sonic looked at his legs in surprise and a bit of confusion.
"What's wrong Sonic?" asked Espio.
"Oh, it's just that I didn't expect Eggman to give me a gift like that." He said as the nanobots started to relax and settle down a bit. "That and finding out he would return in a hundred years."
"And that crazy robot too." Charmy said. "Wait, can robots even have spirits?"
"Tails could probably figure that o-TAILS!" cried out Sonic with wide eyes. "I forgot about him!"
"WHAT!" Charmy yelled. "HOW CAN YOU FORGET MY BOYFRIEND LIKE THAT!?"
"I meant I forgot he's getting surgery right now! Let's go and see him!"
"One problem." Knuckles said pointing to the large ant lions in the distance. "There are echidna eating ant lions out there!"
"Did you forget? Never tire nanobots?" Vector reminded him.
"Oh right...forgot for a second." He chuckled. "Well Sonic? Are you going to run or just stand there like your chilly dog addiction?"
"Says the guy who landed us in that base to begin with."
"Hey. I said I was sorry!" He glared.
"Don't worry Knuckles, I believe you." grinned Vector pulling him into a tight hug.
"Ow! Still in pain from the bite." He said as his shoulder bled a little.
"Yeah Vector." Charmy said with a rare serious tone. "Let's just get going so MY boyfriend doesnt die on me!"
"I think you just want to get there soon so you can kiss him awake." smirked Espio.
"That's your fantasy NOT MINE!" She yelled in rage before turning to Sonic. "Get us there now or I will sting you in the ass!"
Sonic gulped a little as he grabbed them and raced towards the hospital, not knowing a familiar robot was flying behind them.
"Cha….Cha…" it said before landing on Sonic's back. "Cha!"
"Hey, looks like we got a hitchhiker." spoke Vector seeing the small robot.
"Cha." It said before turning its actual voice on, which sounded like a mix between Charmy's voice and Creams. "Please, don't hurt me. I mean none of you any harm."
"Wait, if you could talk this whole time, why didn't you do that earlier?" asked Espio.
"Well you scared me." It admitted. "And that SP Ex was trying to eat me! So I was fearful of my life!"
"Well what's the big idea of hitching a ride?" frowned Knuckles.
"I just….wanted to be friends." It said. "That's why I ran, I wanted to see the world, have friends, be a hero. But….knowing you and your hatred for my kind, it's understandable if you want to destroy me…."
"Your kind? You mean robots?"
"Yes." It said looking away. "The robots."
"Hating robots isn't technically that. We just have bad meetings with them considering your creator has kept using them to kill us."
"But not me, I...never killed anything. All I do is mimic Chaos power and do pranks. Nothing else." It said while creating a sad face from its hand. "See, nothing else but mimicking."
"Well just hang on, cause I'm gonna go faster!" warned Sonic before pouring more speed on it.
"Ok..AHHHHH!" It screamed as it felt the Mach 4 speeds rushing into its body.
