Chapter 7: Run Through the Grand Metropolis

(Grand Metropolis)

Sonic and Luigi had arrived in a city in Mobius called Grand Metropolis. It was a futuristic city with the monaural roads and flying cars.

Sonic- I remember this place. Haven't been here since Metal Sonic posed as Eggman while trying to collect data from me and my friends and transformed into Metal Overlord.

Luigi- Well, this is part of your world. So you should know all about this place.

Sonic- Not really. I only came here once during my Sonic Heroes adventure.

Suddenly, Sonic saw some of Eggman's robot attacking part of the city.

Sonic- What are egghead's robots doing here? I know this city is part of my world, but I thought one of Bowser's kids was causing trouble in Grand Metropolis!

Luigi- I don't know, but we should do something about it.

Sonic- Agreed.

Sonic and Luigi jumped down from the ledge above and onto the robots. Luigi destroyed on with his jump attack while Sonic destroyed three with multiple homing attacks. Then some of the robots ran away.

Sonic- Hey you dumbasses! Get back here!

Luigi- Hold on a minute there, Sonic. I say we follow them. Something tells me they might lead us to where we want to go.

(In the underground areas of Grand Metropolis)

Sonic and Luigi found the Koopaling's castle hidden under a few highways and behind a few large structures.

Luigi- I told you they could lead to where we wanted to go. They lead us straight to the hidden castle.

Sonic- True, but what are Eggman's piles of scraps doing in something that belongs to Bowser? Something isn't right about this.

Luigi- You don't think…

Sonic- That egghead and dino brain are working together? It's possible. But let's take out this castle before worrying about that.

Sonic grab hold of Luigi's arm and dashed up the wall and into a window where they entered the castle.

(Inside the castle)

Once they got inside, Sonic let go of Luigi and Luigi was still pulling himself together after that little speed trip. But Sonic was wondering why the castle looked a bit more like a science lab than a Koopa castle. Sonic and Luigi made their way through the castle and they eventually they found this huge room that looked like one huge lab. Standing in it was Ludwig Von Koopa.

Ludwig- So you finally decided to show up.

Sonic- Luigi, is this one of the Koopalings?

Luigi- Yeah. That's Ludwig Von Koopa. He has a hairstyle similar to Ludwig Von Batavian, but he's also the mad scientist type.

Sonic- That does sound similar to Eggman.

Ludwig- I am a mad genius and none are similar to my intellect. And you must be the blue hedgehog I've heard so much about.

Sonic- At least you're smarter than your dad if you can tell the difference between a rat and a hedgehog. Almost makes me not want to kick your ass. (Cracks his knuckles) Like I said, almost.

Ludwig- Same here for acknowledging my inelegance.

Ludwig tried his flame breath at Sonic, but Sonic dodged too easily. Then Sonic jumped off of the top of Ludwig's head.

Sonic- Catch me if you can!

Ludwig pulls out a magic wand and made it look like there were three of him. Sonic tried his homing attack, but he dashed through a fake copy of Ludwig.

Ludwig- Wrong one.

Ludwig shot a magic beam from his wand, but Sonic jumped out of the way. Meanwhile, Luigi was going through his pockets to see if he had a power up item.

Luigi- There must be something in here that can help Sonic…got it! A boomerang flower!

Luigi ate it and turned into Boomerang Luigi. Boomerang Luigi adjusted himself so that all three Ludwig's were lined up for one throw of his boomerang. Boomerang Luigi managed to hit all three Ludwig's in one hit. The two fakes disappeared, but the real Ludwig got hit in the right side of his face. Before Ludwig could react, he was suddenly getting pounded on by Sonic. Punches to the face, head, stomach, ETC. Sonic stopped when Ludwig passed out.

Sonic- That's enough for now. Clever idea, Luigi.

(Outside the castle)

Luigi planted a Bob-bomb next to the castle and ran before it went off and blew up the castle. After the castle was gone, Sonic saw a strange device in the wreckage and wondered what it was.
