Sonic 25
Level 6: Attack on Scrap brain
Act 2: The departure
In the caves of the Labyrinth Antoine's group were waiting for things to begin.
"So I guess Robotnik isn't starting yet, but keep an eye out for the enemy we know they are bound to come" said Antoine
"Do you think the defenses will hold if and when Robotnik comes?" asked Lupe
"One can only hope" said Sticks "these contraptions are the only real defense we have so Let's hope they work"
"Well I don't think we should worry about the tech Tails gave us" said Marine "he seems very smart and I don't think he would make a mistake if he could help it"
"Still we must keep an eye out on these lasers" said Antoine "we have to make sure they work"
"You seem so level headed" said Lupe "it's a very admirable trait"
Antoine smiled "thank you Mademoiselle"
"Your wife must be very proud of you, I kind of envy her a bit" said Sticks
"Are you looking for someone right now?" asked Antoine
"Not really but I have to say I think that Knuckles guy is kind of cute" Sticks replied
"Oh always after the boys' lover girl" Marine giggled
"Hey I just like company, heck I may join Sonic and his crew when this is over" Sticks replied
Marine smiled "hey it's okay I understand, me I wish to travel by sea one day as I am really good with boats"
"That day is coming soon" said Antoine "we are going on a very long voyage here soon"
"What about you Lupe?" asked Marine
"I have guarded this place my whole life and I wish to remain until the end, but maybe I should go with you because being a robot will defeat that purpose" Lupe replied
"Indeed well glad to know that you may come with us" said Antoine "we may need you to defend us on Bygone island"
"Any way I can help is welcome" said Lupe
Suddenly the alarms set off
"Well here they come" said Sticks
"Do you think the others are doing okay?" asked Lupe
"The others should be okay" replied Marine "but yeah I am a bit worried too"
"We should have faith our friends are okay, I am sure they are doing just fine" said Antoine as they prepared to do battle
Sonic and his team reached the second chamber and were already regretting it
"Ack what in the world is that!" Sonic spat as he was being attacked by a new Badnik, it was composed of five hovering balls, one in the center and four orbiting it with spikes on them.
"It's an Orbinaut" said Shadow "really nasty baddies!"
"How do you attack these things!" asked Sonic being knocked back by attempting to attack the Orbinaut.
"Dodge the spikes and go for the center!" said Shadow
"Easy for you to say" said Knuckles "you have a gun!"
"I don't have infinite ammo on this" said Shadow "I am keeping care of what I fire at"
"If you had a hammer" said Amy smashing the robots with her hammer
"Showoff" said Sonic
From the sides came more robots, far larger ones than any other they met before with small green eyes and red bodies and armed with blasters on their right arms.
"Ah the E-100 series Swat-Bots" said Shadow "keep ready these things pack a punch!"
The Swat-bots fired as the team was taken aback, Amy tossed her hammer as she was able to take one out.
"Seems like you are the best one to deal with these robots" said Knuckles "I will back you up"
"Thanks" said Amy "Sonic, Shadow keep them busy let us take them out"
"You got it" said Sonic
"Just make sure to keep an eye out and you will be fine!" said Shadow
"Any big ones to worry about?" asked Knuckles
"The prototype and his final one in this series" said Shadow "Zero is not going to be fun, then there is E-123 Omega!"
"Great" said Amy
Slowly Amy and Knuckles destroyed the E series robots wit only one left.
It seemed to be retreating after seeing its cousins be destroyed.
"Well that was easy" said Amy
"I would not say so" said Shadow "because here comes trouble"
Before them a large green robot appeared, it began to attack them wish lasers and its huge arms,
"Yipes!" Amy cried "I don't like the looks of that thing!"
"It likes pounding the ground and its shock attacks" said Shadow
"Great this tin can is not going to be fun isn't it?" asked Amy
"Luckily you are the best one here to deal with it" said Shadow "Amy aim for the head!"
Amy nodded and began smashing it on the head, she was able to deal a load of damage and really take a toll on the huge robot.
"Well done Amy" said Shadow as Amy kept on smashing the robot, soon she was able to destroy it but the battle did seem to have its toll on Amy, she grabbed a ring from her backpack.
"Are there more?" she huffed
"Of course" said Shadow as he then spotted something coming at them "Metal is here"
"Perfect" Sonic huffed "just perfect"
"Come on we have to disconnect the beta wire!" said Tails, Rotor and Sally together
Bunnie was worried, for the last few minutes the others with her were becoming more robotic and they seemed to be joining together as one.
Only Bunnie seemed to be not effected and she said "Nicole why are the others becoming more robotic?"
"I detect it's because you absorbed Chaos energy making you somewhat immune. Brainwave signals are at 48%!"
"Nicole activate emergency protocols, codename SG-1000!" said Tails, Rotor and Sally together
"working" said Nicole "there putting up barrier number one, Brainwave signals are at 73%"
"Phew" said Tails relieved a little "but that won't be for long"
"Seems like the signals are getting stronger the more we stick around the computer" said Rotor
"This unit really hopes we can get out of here soon" said Sally
"We are nearly there" said Tails "keep an eye on us Bunnie I am giving you primary charge now"
"But I have no idea about this computer stuff, I need yah!"
"I can help you" said Nicole
Bunnie nodded as she kept an eye on the outside world.
"Okay the beta wire is disconnected, I am circuiting in the feedback loop" saids Tails
"Are you sure the beta wire is not detected as loose?" asked Rotor
"It's a backup wire" said Tails "should not cause any alarms."
"This unit can make an emergency patch anyhow" said Sally "should bypass any alarms"
"Just try to keep as normal as possible" said Bunnie "I don't want to lose you guys"
"You got it" said Tails
"Just try not to worry about us right now" said Rotor
"This unit promises to be never someones slave, that would not be a good idea" said Sally
Bunnie gave a nod though she was incredibly worried about her friends.
In the caves of the Labyrinth the lasers kept most of the robots at bay as the group gathered to observe the monitors which were displaying information for Antoine's group.
"Laser one is going strong" said Sticks
"Laser four is strong" chimed Marine
"Keep an eye for a dip" said Antoine
"Laser three is strong" said Lupe
"Levels are stable" Antoine said
"Wait laser four is having a surge!" Marine cried
"How bad?" asked Antoine
"By 15% and rising, that's not good" Marine sighed
"Activate shield" Antoine commanded
"Do you think these things will hold?" asked Lupe
"We knew that the enemy is strong" said Antoine "we won't count on the lasers alone, activate trap 1!"
"Activated!" said Lupe as the first trap was sprung as wall came down on several robots destroying them.
"Well glad that works" said Sticks "and plenty of more surprises on the way!"
"Laser four is reaching 25%" Marine cried "that power surge is really messing it up!"
"Shut it down for now, with the first trap sprung it won't be needed for a bit" Antoine replied
"Got it" said Marine
"In the meantime we should arm lasers five, six, seven and eight" said Sticks
"Can do" said Lupe "is the energy ready for it?"
Marine nodded "got it, I diverted some of the energy from laser four"
"We still need to keep an eye on entrance 1" said Antoine "we know Burrobots can carve into the barrier we have"
"It will hold for a little while" said Lupe "but something tells me they will dig around the barrier"
Antoine nodded "well that is expected that is why we have the second trap and the other lasers."
"I don't like this one bit" said Sticks "major bad if they get in"
"That is why we are here to back things up" said Lupe
"It's not going to be easy to fend off this place with so many robots" said Marine
"The risks are large but I have confidence" said Antoine
"I am glad someone does" said Sticks
"Just keep calm" said Lupe "stay focused and don't panic."
"I am sure we will be okay" chimed Marine
Antoine nodded as they looked on at the monitors, keeping watch over the enemy.
Metal was attacking the group with his arm lasers, taken aback the group started to evade his shots.
"Keep dodging!" Shadow cried "I will try to distract Metal!"
"Can we get out of this chamber any other way?" asked Amy
"Yes but you will not like it" said Shadow firing up knocking some of the ceiling down "go up but trust me there are some more nasties up there"
"Well if we don't have much choice I choose up better that than risk the water" said Knuckles
"Works for me" said Sonic
"Just dot go too far ahead, I will keep Metal head down here for a bit but I am not going to be far behind" said Shadow
"You sure you can fight that thing?" asked Amy
"I am going to try, relax I don't plan to go out just yet" said Shadow
"We will wait for you" said Sonic
"Just try not to have too much fun" said Knuckles
Shadow nodded as the others went upward
"Okay buddy its time to dance" said Shadow
"You shall be destroyed" Metal droned
"Well you are different, a robot after my own heart if I had one" Shadow then charged at Metal, Metal fired at him but Shadow was quick.
"You think those pea shooter is any threat to me?" asked Shadow
"You only have one gun" Metal stated
"True, but skill overrides firepower sometimes" Shadow replied as he fired at Metal.
Metal fired his lasers but Shadow evaded, Shadow lured Metal over to the nearby waters and backed into a corner near the pool.
He saw some more loose rocks above and waited, Metal charged in but Shadow blasted at the roof which crashed all around Metal.
Shadow navigated around where he blasted and found his way upwards making sure to seal metal in the tunnels.
"This is why robots are not good" said Shadow "they only do things by logic"
Shadow then met with the others
"So you made it out?" asked Amy
"Was there any doubt, but we don't have much time as Metal is bound to find his way out. Beating that robot is not going to be easy, he most likely survived that." said Shadow
"Well at least he will be gone for a bit" said Knuckles
"Lets move on" said Amy "got to cover some ground"
"Right on" said Sonic as the four moved into the lower sections of the Scrap Brain.
"This unit has hacked into the database" said Tails "activating the Master System protocol!"
"Signal is strong Tails" said Rotor "you are in"
"This unit is reading that the alarms are not triggered" said Sally "the monitor is fine"
"How are y'all doing?" asked Bunnie
"This unit is okay" said Sally
"We are fine" said Rotor and Tails "uh oh not again"
"I am isolating Sally from some of the control waves" said Nicole "I am attempting to modulate again"
"Nicole activate protocol SG-1000 II!" said Tails and Rotor
"It is ready, brainwave patterns are at 64%"
"Its getting worse" said Tails "I am enabling protocol Sega Mark III and R-360!"
"Can we use the Mega Jet protocol too?" asked Rotor
"No too risky for now, could cause a cascade overload" said Tails
"What about Nomad?" asked Sally
"That may help" said Tails
"What are you talking about?" asked Bunnie
"My many tricks to computers" said Tails "I have many more up my sleeve too"
"Tails has built in redundancies into our cyberspace" said Rotor "so we don't fall into Robotniks hands"
"Its kind of like several safety nets in a circus" said Sally "if one fails there are more to catch us"
"Power surge warning" said Nicole "canceling SG-1000 protocol"
"Well our first net is now broken" said Tails "compensate with Nomad protocol and prepare protocol 32X!"
"Yes Tails" said Nicole
"I think that protocol Sega VR may come in handy next" said Rotor
"Sounds good to me" said Sally
"Man a lot of funny names there" said Bunnie
"Well I just came up with them because they sounded cool" said Tails
"Hey I have primary connection" shouted Rotor "bypassing main firewalls!"
"Initiate our end, codename: Saturn" said Tails
"Code excepted" said Sally "the system is now at our mercy"
"Good, lets hack this bad boy to pieces" said Tails as they prepared to take down the large supercomputer from within.
Antoine looked at the camera feeds, it seemed the robots had penetrated into one of the chambers outside the central area where the civilians were.
"Okay we have to fight these directly, they bypassed many of ze traps and lasers" he said
"I have my pike ready" said Lupe
"My Boomerang is ready" said Sticks
"I only punch but I can trey to help as best as I can" said Marine
"Miss Marine?" came a voice, the four turned around and saw Cream
"Cream you should be in the shelter!" said Lupe
Cream nodded "I know but Cheese here says he can help, he can give someone special energy"
"Chao!" Cheese cried
"I am not sure about that" said Antoine "but this place has shown us incredible things so far so why not?"
Cream nodded and said "Miss Marine Cheese here wishes to give you the power, he senses you don't have the same skill as the others so it will come in handy"
Marine nodded, the Chao than came up to her and shot a small beam of energy at her.
Marine felt the power enter her as she said "are you sure Cheese will be fine?"
Cream nodded "this place is his home and it gives him the energy back, he will be fine!"
Marine smiled and said "guess its time for action"
The others nodded as they went off, Cream ran to the shelter hoping her friends would win.
Antoine's group soon reached where the robots had penetrated
"Lets rock!" said Sicks as the four began to battle
Sticks tossed her boomerang knocking down a few Bat Brains
Antoine sliced his way into his enemy, the master swordsman was willing and able to crush any who came close.
Lupe used her lance and was able to carve up some robots as well, she prodded them and was able to make most into shish kebab.
Marines new water powers were put to use, she was able to charge up energy balls and hurl them at great speeds to make them hard as rocks.
The robots were all knocked back and it seemed for the very least for now Antoine's team was doing quite well.
Sonics team were stuck in the lower ends of the Scrap Brain and were determined to go back up but many new challenges came before them, the bases emergency defenses were here and active such as saw blades, electrical generators, large crushers, spinning platforms and who knows what else.
Not to mention the various types of Badniks, it was a real mess.
"Well this place sure is pleasant" said Sonic
"So much joy and fun to be had by all" chimed Amy
"Its like an amusement park, run by a lunatic" Knuckles spat
"Keep moving people" said Shadow "we have a way back up here soon"
"Is this why you wanted to take the front door?" asked Sonic
"Yeah its nasty down here, these traps are here to defend the computer even with us inside. Robotnik doesn't like killing but if its self defense he will do it" said Shadow
"So it was going to come to this place no matter what" said Amy
"Again I didn't know about his main trap, I knew where the other traps were except the one he used on us" Shadow spat
"If you say so but this is very annoying!" Knuckles spat
"Look ahead, there is the elevator up" said Shadow "but taking the stairs is safer, it's a secondary route much like the one at your former Knothole base"
"If we survive this I am giving you the bill for that" said Amy
"That's fair" said Shadow
"Can we save the chatter for later?" asked Knuckles as he spotted some Badniks
The four went into action, Sonic leaping and taking out some Caterkillers with Amy taking out some Orbinauts, Knuckles took on some Ball hogs and Shadow took out even more Caterkillers.
Then tiny robots appeared all over, they looked like bombs
"No need to give those a name" said Sonic "look out for the bombs!"
Sonic made sure to set each one off safely as the team progressed
"Robotnik is really serious here" Amy said with a huff
"It's not going to get better" said Knuckles
"Who said it was?" asked Shadow "I know I didn't"
"How far up do we have to go?" asked Sonic
"At least six floors up but because of the size of this place its more like 60 floors" said Shadow
"Hoo boy" said Amy "better keep it easy then, use rings when they are needed"
"Lots of climbing then, I can deal with that" said Knuckles
"I will tell you when we reach the top but it's a long way up" said Shadow
The four then started to climb the stairs hoping they would reach the top soon, but each one knew that was not going to be the case.
"We have breached the main firewall" said Tails and Rotor collectively
"Sally are you still with me?" Asked Bunnie
"This unit remains isolated" said Sally though she sounded a little weakened
"Brainwave patters are at 30%, critical levels are approaching!" Nicole warned
"Oh no" said Tails and Rotor "we are becoming one with the Scrap Brain!"
"I will protect you as best as I can" said Nicole
"Now the hack must come first" said Tails and Rotor "pay us no mind we can do this!"
"Come on guys we already started to send our package" said Sally "we should leave"
"We must make sure the package is working" said Rotor and Tails "we are irrelevant, we must finish this project"
"They sound quite robotic" said Bunnie worriedly
"They are going under" replied Sally "this is not good they are our smartest hackers!"
"We are disconnecting the link" said Rotor and Tails "we will go outside away from here once we know the package is doing its job"
Bunnie and Sally found themselves alone in the cyberspace now as Rotor and Tails were disconnected.
"The package has executed" said Nicole "we have done it!"
Sally and Bunnie were soon outside the cyberspace as they looked for Tails and Rotor, they found the two in the corner glaring on at them.
"Are you two okay?" Asked Bunnie
"Come on guys please say something!" Sally cried
"All hail Robotniks eternal Empire" they droned
"Oh crud" said Sally knowing her friends were now inside the Scrap Brain like the others.
"We have to lure them out and perhaps help them!" said Bunnie
Sally nodded as the two lured Tails and Rotor out hoping to grab hold of them somewhere and reverse the roboticization.
Bunnie lured over Rotor, she tackled him into a corner and then grabbed his deroboticization armlet.
Rotor then became normal again "ow!" he cried
"Sorry sugah" said Bunnie
"No it's okay, thanks" Rotor replied
"Hey a little help over here" said sally as she lured Tails over to another corner.
Bunnie then tackled Tails and then changed him back to normal.
"Oh man that time it wasn't so fun" he sighed.
"I think we should get out of here" said Rotor
Sally nodded, she then hit her deroboticization bracelet to change back however it sparked and fizzled as it made her still robotic but retaining her original color scheme.
"Tails the device didn't work on me so well!" she cried in panic
"I will try to fix it when we return to the Labyrinth" said Tails
"Well if that fails you could be mah pardner" said Bunnie "Bunnie Rabbot and Steel belted Sally"
Rotor shrugged "Mecha Sally sounds better to me"
"You can call me what you want for now but we still must get out of here" said Sally
The others nodded as they headed out of the Scrap Brain.
Back in the Labyrinth Antoine's group they had cleared out the squad of robots who penetrated the inner core.
"Did we beat them back?" asked Marine
"Seems so for now" said Lupe
"Don't count them out yet" said Antoine "we know there will be more"
"I saw the lasers" said Sticks "they are certainly being attacked and some are near dead even with the shields"
"We are running out of time then" said Antoine
"We could flood some of the inner chambers" said Lupe "it will at least hold some of them back"
Antoine nodded "we shall do that"
"I think we should use traps 7 and 8" chimed Sticks "should help fend off even more robots"
Antoine nodded "we should use any trap in this place to our advantage, maybe traps 11 and 12 will help too"
Lupe shrugged "you sure about that, those traps are quite close to the refugees"
"Yeah and they are pretty dangerous against us as well as the enemy" said Sticks
"Well the fire traps proved to be effective before" said Antoine "plus we have the dropping floors"
"Its just I am worried those other traps may prove dangerous to our civilians, I actually rather the robots capture them actually" Sticks replied
"I understand, prepare lasers 5 though 12" Antoine ordered
"Got it" said Marine "this is getting intense got to say"
"The party is probably just starting" said Sticks "got plenty of fighting yet"
"Just make sure we can fend off any who come here, so far nothing has been able to get farther than this room but we need to make sure that it all stops here" said Antoine
"This has to end soon though" said Sticks "we just got to hope the others will come"
"They will" said Lupe "I am sure of it"
"I hope so" said Marine
"Just keep focused" said Antoine "and give our friends more time"
Sonic and his team reached the top once more, all huffing and puffing except for Shadow.
"Robotnik" Shadow began to shout "we are not dead yet!"
"Indeed and I congratulate you on reaching here again" said Robotnik
"So what now Robotnik, by now our forces have penetrated your computer and is crippling it from within" said Amy
Robotnik nodded "yes I picked up your inside agents only a few momenta ago and I applaud your efforts, indeed my computer is beginning to overload as we speak and in a few minutes this base will be gone. Bravo my friends, but it will not be that easy to leave here"
Metal then appeared behind him as the four looked on
"Metal here seems eager for some payback, I will let him do so but with a twist. Worker-bots 20007 and 79229 please help Metal defeat our foes here"
"Yes Master" Worker-bots 20007 and 79229 droned at once
"Wait!" Shadow cried looking at Sonic and his crew "let the others go and take me, let them take Rouge and my father and you can have me"
"That doesn't seem too fair though" said Robotnik "what else do you have?"
Shadow sighed "I offer myself to you again, I wish to leave Sonic and his friends to join you once more. Please let me serve you again"
"Sorry but I must decline, farewell Shadow and good luck!" Said Robotnik, he then seemed to disappear before them.
"Great a hologram!" Shadow spat "okay party time!"
The four began fighting, Sonic went after Metal but his Uncle came forward and gave him a huge hit.
Sonic was knocked back, he sighed and said "sorry about this Uncle Chuck."
Sonic then started to hit his uncle, he started to give him a few jabs to try to knock him down but Metal came in with some laser blasts.
Amy pounded her hammer on the ground to knock the two Worker-bots off their feet, she then dodged some of Metals shots as he fired at her.
Knuckles came in to knock down Rouge but she used her wings to fly up a little to evade him.
"Danger" came a large voice "system overload in five minutes, all Worker-bots please evacuate"
"Well that tells us how long we have" said Sonic evading Metals blasts
"Lets pedal back lure them out with us!" said Amy
"Will do" said Knuckles
The group went back luring the enemy towards the escape route.
It was not easy as metal kept on firing at them making this whole thing very hard to do.
The group did try, Shadow pulled out his pistol and blasted away at Metal keeping him occupied.
But time was running out as the group and it would not be long before the base would destroy itself.
Sally's team got inside the Labyrinth and saw that many traps were set off with loads of robots all around.
"This place is a mess" said Tails
"Do you think the others are okay?" asked Rotor
"My sensors detect life forms" said Sally
"Me too" chimed Bunnie
"How many robots do you guys detect?" asked Tails
"About a dozen" said Sally
"We should be able to take them" said Bunnie
"Then you two go ahead, might as well use robots against robots"
"Come on Sally girl we will show them what good guy robots are all about!"
Sally nodded as she followed Bunnie, the two raced and then found the robots.
Sally armed her wrist blades and Bunnie prepared her cannon, the two robots started to fight off the invaders quickly and went off to the other paths into the Labyrinth to get inside.
They saw a new path dug by Burrobots and took that down.
When they reached downstairs Antoine met Sally with a blade
Bunnie took off her fake speaker and said "hey honey we are back!"
"Oh mon Cheri how I missed you!" Antoine cried dropping his blade and running to his wife, the two hugged and kissed eachother.
The two then split as Antoine said "sorry about that Sally, but you are not normal"
Sally nodded "I know but that's okay, still where are the others?"
"We have not seen them" said Sticks
"That's not good" said Tails
"There isn't much time" said Rotor
"Oh no I hope they make it back" said Marine
"Well we can't go back" said Bunnie "we have to start packing soon"
"Lets hope they get back before the base explodes" said Sally sounding very worried.
"We are almost out of here" cried Sonic "come on Shadow stop playing around!"
"I am not playing with this metal head" Shadow scoffed firing at Metal
"The front door is open Shadow!" Amy cried "we have to get out of here!"
"You must be cured" droned Uncle Chuck and Rouge still chasing after them
"And then we have to worry about these two!" spat Knuckles
"Once we reach outside we will knock them out" said Amy
Metal still fired at the group, making escape a very difficult task
"Attention, Scrap Brain will overload in T Minus 2 minutes! All Worker-bots evacuate!" came the alarm
"Argh, this harder than we thought!" Sonic cried
"Sonic I want you to start running" said Amy "I will make sure our friends here make it out"
"All hail Robotniks Eternal Empire" droned Uncle Chuck and Rouge
"We are almost at the door everyone" said Knuckles "but there are Badniks all over!
"Great" said Sonic, he dashed forward with his spin dash to take them out
Amy followed up behind throwing her hammer to destroy some of them.
Knuckles jumped upward and glided a little so he could take some out by air.
"You can glide?" asked Sonic in disbelief
"I need a running start" said Knuckles as he started punching away at the robots.
"The door is closing" said Shadow "it will be barricaded very soon!"
"Great!" said Sonic annoyed
Soon Amy, Knuckles and Sonic were outside however they saw Rouge and Uncle Chuck trying to get out but the door swiftly closed before them.
"No!" Sonic screamed
"We have to get back in there!" Amy cried
"But we have Badniks out here we can't help them!" Knuckles cried
"Shadow can you hear me!" Sonic cried
"Come on you jerk talk to us!" Amy spat
"Guys make it fast!" said Knuckles as he was fighting off some nearby Badniks
"Its too late" came Shadows voice via the intercom
"But my Uncle, Rouge!" Sonic cried
"They are with me, listen Sonic we only have a minute and I am sorry that I failed"
"Shadow is there any other way you can go?" Amy asked
"No I am in the inner chamber of the door, Robotnik made this to contain any blasts so its too strong. If its any consolation I don't think Metal will make this and in fact I might not make it" said Shadow
"Well it was Worth a try" said Knuckles "but guys I need your help over here, I'm sorry but we need to get away from here"
Amy and Sonic sighed
"Okay Shadow, for what its worth I thank you" said Sonic
"We will move on Shadow, thanks for doing your best"
"Attention, Scrap Brain will overload in T Minus 30 seconds!" came the alarm
Sonic and Amy ran forward helping Knuckles clear a path as they ran.
They reached the area near the Labyrinth and looked on.
Below they saw a large explosion, Sonic fell to his knees as he cried
"Oh Uncle Chuck"
"I am so sorry Sonic" said Amy
"Same here, sorry if I was pushy there"
Sonic sighed "it's okay, at least he is not enslaved anymore… I just wish it was different"
"So do we all" said Amy
"The others are waiting I guess" said Knuckles
Sonic nodded as he got back up
"Lets leave this island, I want to get away from here" he said sadly
"Yeah me too, but first we must help the others leave this island too and make plans later" Amy replied
Sonic looked down at the burning Scrap Brain once more but then left alongside of the others.
Somewhere near the ruins of the Scrap Brain something was knocking over some debris.
All over pieces of metal were flying off, with other pieces of rubble and various materials.
Soon a robotic hand came out, it slowly moved over some material as it came our of the rubble.
Red eyes began to glow and a voice came out
"Escape complete, must seek out repairs" said Metal Sonic looking himself over
His body took loads of damage, some of his spines were off and one of his legs were missing but overall intact
He then flew up over the Scrap Brain red eyes glaring.
"I must find my master" he droned as he flew off.
Metal was damaged but he knew that soon he would be repaired.
Bigger, faster and stronger
"I must beat that Sonic" he droned as he looked for a way home
End of level
