Brisk Sunset: Absolute Monarchy

Sonic upchucked on the concrete floor as Snively took a notepad from his back pocket, "Science Log, March 26, 2013. Project Geddon shows signs of stomach failure and Nausea when injected into heart area."

Sonic wiped his mouth, "You think, Witch Doctor? Are we done yet? I don't think I can take much more of this."

Snively put away his notepad, "But this is only the beginning, my dear pincushion—"

"Okay, seriously. Why does everyone call me that?"

"You're furry and prickly at the same time. Any who! Knotholean laws clearly state that assault is punishable by a month in prison. But unfortunately, I have many more days' worth of substances to test on you. And G.U.N.'s simple minded General of East Territory doesn't have the gall to challenge Knothole. If he brings arms into the situation; it could mean war. And he isn't prepared to team up with West Territory just to calm down a few lousy animals."

Sonic stooped on the ground against a large metal crate, "So you really don't care anything about the Knotholeans, do you? You just want the land…And the gratitude of your brainwashed citizens so…"

"…I become Knothole's new KING!" Snively cackled, "And with me as King; I can out rule this stupid pact that dumb chipmunk agreed to and finally bring Knothole back to its glory days…as an ABSOLUTE MONARCHY!"

Sonic bared his sharp teeth…Indicating that he was lost for words, but not for anger, "You selfish bastard! How can you be so selfish to your own people. Don't you remember the Robotropolis Civil War? All the lives that was lost? All you'll be doing is resurrecting the chaos!"

"All I remember is how much hell we brought towards you and all the other Knotholeans who wanted to stand up against us…And all I think about now is all the hell we WILL bring!"

Suddenly the voice of Sage at the cell caused Snively to drop the needle in front of Sonic.

"Mr. Mayor! Mr. Mayor! We have a CODE RED situation!" Sage alerted.

"Breach?!" Snively went over to the cell bars as they slowly opened, "How can that be? We've never had a breach in years!"

"Apparently we have now! Outpost A's doors have been manipulated from and outside source while Outpost B's outer shields are being lowered somehow! It's a full scale HACK!"

As they talked, Sonic's right foot reached for the needle and pulled it behind his back. Just in time, because Snively turned to look at him in anger, "YOU! This is your fault. If it was any other deputy, they would use the 'acceptable loss' tactic! But because of you, hero; they're bringing a whole rescue squad from East Territory. If only Western Territory knew about this jail break. They'd be in this fight too. Taking turns turning my territory into turf…"

Sage laughed, "Try saying that four times fast, right Mr. Mayor?" Snively looked at him in annoyance, "I mean, I'll take him out. If we destroy him, G.U.N. will have no reason to keep attacking…that is, East Territory won't, anyway.

Snively turned as Sage pointed a hand toward Sonic. Sonic just closed his eyes, expecting the worst.
