Chapter 2: The Flash

Above Planet Earth: Newly rebuilt Death Egg

In the main control room, a rather large man was talking to two robots.

"Finally, my ultimate weapon is complete!" He boasted to the two. "Now, I can transport myself into different worlds, and create an army that's strong enough to defeat that annoying pest Sonic! And then, nothing will stop me from creating Eggmanland!" He chuckled to himself at the thought when he was interrupted.

"Uh…boss?" A red robot known as Orbot said. "You might want to take a look at this."

"Hmm?" Eggman asked, looking at the robot. "What is it?"

"Something is heading for us, and it's coming really fast!"

"What!?" Yelled the scientist, running to the window and seeing a golden hedgehog outside speeding towards him. "It's Sonic! Deploy all defenses! I want that hedgehog to be blasted out of the sky!"

"But wouldn't that just put him on here?" Cubot, the yellow robot asked. "Since he's in space, and space is all sky right?" Eggman quickly glared at him, making the robot stop talking.

"Don't question my judgment!" He shouted. "Deploy all defenses!" That hedgehog has been a thorn in my side for years. He will not beat me again!

In Space:

Super Sonic was speeding towards the Death Egg.

"So, old Egghead thinks that just because he can rebuild this he can beat me? He's got another thing coming!" He sees several missiles headed straight for him. "Oh yeah!" He exclaimed. "Time to get this party started!" He rammed straight through the missiles, making all of them explode. "Gee, you'd think that a self-professed genius could make better weapons." Sonic muttered, as he saw more missiles headed for him. "Oh well, better get this done with." He flew around the missiles, making him follow them. Sonic then went to the barrel of the cannon that shot them. "You want me? Come get me!" He jumped down right before the missiles hit him. The missiles couldn't pull up in time, so they went inside the barrel and exploded, destroying the cannon. "All right, let's finish this!" Sonic quickly flew through the hole in the side of the ship that the missiles had made.

In the Death Egg:

Eggman watched in anger and hatred as Sonic destroyed the cannon.

"But…how did he destroy the outer defenses!?" He wondered out loud.

"What do we do now boss?" Orbot asked.

"I have an idea!" Cubot exclaimed. "Let's surrender! After all we clearly can't beat Sonic. He beats us all the time!" Eggman quickly smacked him, making Cubot say "Ouch!"

"No, you idiot!" Eggman said, walking toward the com link. "We don't surrender." He grabbed the microphone. "Attention all units! Sonic the Hedgehog has infiltrated the Death Egg! Destroy the hedgehog at all cost!" He slammed the microphone down on the table. That should keep Sonic busy.

A couple minutes later…

"What's all that noise outside?" Eggman asked as he heard several strange noises outside the door. Just then there was an explosion and Sonic flew into the room.

"Sonic!" Eggman exclaimed, getting a little worried. "Uh…how pleasant it is to see you again."

"Flattery will get you nowhere Egghead." Sonic taunted. He then turned to Eggman's machine, which was in the middle of the room. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna put that toy of yours out of commission." Sonic was just about to attack when he heard a button click. "Wha!?"

"Hahahaha!" Eggman evilly laughed. "You're too late Sonic! Now I will transport myself into different worlds, and finally destroy you once and for all!"

"So that's what you've been up to this whole time!?" Sonic asked in disbelief. "I thought it'd be a better plan to be honest."

"What did you just say!?" Eggman asked, getting frustrated.

"Nothing…"

Eggman cleared his throat. "Now, prepare to witness the creation of the greatest empire in history: Mine!"

The machine turned on, but began making strange noises and started flashing.

"Whoa!" Sonic exclaimed in surprise.

"Wha—what's happening!?" Eggman shouted, running to the machine to turn it off. "That's not supposed to happen!"

"Eggman!" Sonic said nervously. "Hurry up and shut that thing off! It's not safe!"

"What do you think I'm doing!?" Eggman growled. He finally grunted. "It's no use. Somehow the machine has become self aware. Not even I in all my knowledge can turn it off."

Sonic was shocked, but quickly recovered. "Well, then I have no other choice." He got himself ready. "Chaos Contro—" Before he could strike an energy beam shot out of the machine, hitting Super Sonic and knocking him down. "Wha…what was that!?"

Orbot and Cubot were hugging each other in fear. "It was nice knowing you." Orbot said to his friend.

"You too buddy." Cubot said.

Eggman just stood with a blank expression on his face. Failed again. He thought. Why does this always happen to me!?

The machine began flashing rapidly.

"It's no use. We're finished!" Eggman said.

The machine flashed again and everything went white.

Sonic has arrived to stop Eggman again! But it appears that something else is at work! Now Sonic and Eggman are both gone. What happened to them? Are they still alive? And what about the planet below? Find the answers next time in Heroes Alliance!

A/N: Chapter 2 done! This was fun to write. I love Cubot's humor, it always gets me. So yeah, the Death Egg is from Sonic 1. If you have any questions, or are enjoying this, please comment (review) and I'll get back to you. Thanks for reading!
