Tom was panting from exhaustion trying to drag and contain the three robots as well as the blue animal thing that he accidentally shot. However, he was more perplexed with the blue animal that rested within one of the animal cages that his wife had around the house thanks to her career as a veterinarian. However, the fact that the robots seemed to have a physical appearance akin to a teenager was just as odd. It was like they were almost living machines. "Wouldn't be that surprised that those three are like those transformers that Jojo has grown to like thanks to her babysitter Tessa..." Tom said aloud while he ruffled the back of his head for a bit as looked back at the blue animal. "Guess Crazy Karl wasn't so crazy after all... This guy really looks like that Blue Devil thing he has been going on about." Tom added on before Uzi began to reboot and groan due to a headache.
"What the hell?" Uzi questioned before realizing that she, alongside both V and N, was tied up in some chains. "Chains... Seriously?" The Goth Drone announced as if she was somewhat insulted by the fact something so simple was keeping her tied down. Yet, when Uzi attempted to use her Absolute Solver, a spark of blue electricity caused her to glitch out a bit. "Ow!" She shouted aloud due to the backlash of energy created by the EMP Blast that hit her.
Tom jolted up a bit upon hearing Uzi coming to. "Uh... Hi there?" The Green Hills Officer announced while timidly waving his hand. "You're not here to kill me due to some Terminator Timeline shenanigan, right" He joked nervously as Uzi's digital expression shifted to show confusion.
"Really? Terminator? That is a bit of an insulting stereotype pal..." She declared while shifting her expression to display how annoyed she was.
"If that isn't the case, why are you and your robo siblings all tied up then?" Questioned the now active blue animal as he tried to regain his balance after being hit with the tranquilizer. "Oh! Hey Donut Lord! Nice to see you around! Who are your new robot friends over there?" He asked with a hyperactive attitude, eager to see some action.
"Donut Lord?" Questioned both Uzi and Tom with raised eyebrows, physical and digital.
With a roll of his eyes, the animal began to explain, "Because he talks to donuts and eats them if they get out of line of course." This nonchalant explanation was enough to make Uzi almost break out in laughter as N and V started to awaken from their "coma".
Waving his fingers a bit in an attempt to protest, Tom came to agree with the explanation provided. "So... Are you guys here to kidnap me?" The human then asked with N chimming up this time around.
"Dude... You were the one who technically kidnapped us. Hell, we are all pretty much either tied up or put into a cage like the hedgehog over there." N declared as his tail flickered about slightly to illustrate this detail to Tom. "Do you often kidnap people?" He questioned further as Tom glared at N.
"Uh... No. This day is just way too bizarre than my average ones." Tom protested with crossed arms, insulted by this assumption.
"So, you normally talk to donuts then?" Uzi joked with a sly smirk, making both Sonic and N laugh a lot at this jab. "See what assumptions get you Humie?" The Goth Bot finished off as Tom gave off an annoyed slow laugh. However, V soon came to spot a transport vehicle that was at the baseball field from before.
"Hey, guys... Expecting the Ultron Bus coming around?" V remarked while pointing out the bus' arrival as everyone began to panic even more.
"They're coming for Me! Donut Lord, you gotta help me!" Pleaded the Hedgehog as the three drones were baffled that they were just chopped liver for the slaughter. Upon seeing this, the hedgehog swiftly changed his wording, "US! I mean us..." He added with a nervous laugh.
"I agree with the blue guy. You got us into this mess after all Human!" V barked in anger as Tom groaned at the mess he had just gotten himself into.
Meanwhile, Robotnik was working on his computer as he analyzed the data that his machines had obtained from the search for the source of what created the massive blackout. His machines had found a trail leading him onward to one of the homes belonging to the residents of this pathetic backwater town. "The sooner I find this creature, the faster I can leave this wasteyard these simplitents call a town and conduct experiments on this critter. I will show those militaristic morons who the True Apex is around here!!!" Robotnik vowed dramatically with his fist shaking in mid-air. "Agent Stone... What is the ETA on my latte?" He questioned with minor eagerness to taste the perfection that Stone could create.
"Just a few more moments, Doctor! Just making sure the final touches are put in place." Stone announced as he continued working on the latte with artistic skill. Robotnik may have the largest of egos, but even he knew that Agent Stone was the master of the ways brewing of coffee. "Your newest drone is quite an impressive form of technology. You outdid yourself with your newest drone based on those old documents you had uncovered." Agent Stone added as he glanced over to a holding pod labeled Omega, Unit E-123. Unlike the common robots that The Doctor had created, this one was far more advanced than to he had discovered an old scrapped project in which the military had invested. However, for reasons unknown, this project was shut down with almost every form of recording of its existence wiped clean.
Robotnik snickered at the praise, even though it was not needed for a genius like himself. "Well, I do pride myself on the forms of technology that I create. However, the blueprints that helped me create that particular drone belonged to my grandfather. He was a great genius like myself, even though I am very much more superior." The Doctor bragged until his robotic truck came to a halt, sounding off that he had reached a large source of energy belonging to the creature that Robotnik was searching for.
The Doctor turned toward the computer screen with a small smile before heading out to survey the area for any trances. However, upon leaving his motor vehicle, Robotnik's gloves began to receive a small overload of dark purple energy. "How perplexing..." He announced while examining the sparking glove as the energy faded away. Pressing a button on his cloak, Robotnik activated a voice recorder to document that further research on this purple energy would be needed later. With that out of the way, Robotnik began to investigate the area for the source of the creature that he sought. However, the sounds of another small-minded fool grabbed his attention as he came face to face with the homeowner. "Ah. Greetings my fellow neighbor." Robotnik announced with great effort to not allow his need to be dominant to overtake him, "I am with... The Power Company." He lied to the suspensions of the Homeowner, "As I am sure that you are aware, the town has been experiencing a massive power outage. I am trying to find the source of the problem. If you don't mind, I would need to take some readings within your house." Robotnik announced as he minorly bolted for the door.
"Really? The Power Company? You must know my pal Spencer then. We played softball every so often. How is he doing?" Tom questioned to test the reaction from the really, really odd guy before him. After all, Tom's time as a police officer has given him some degree of insight on people and this person did not give off the impression that he was to be trusted.
With a small chuckle, Robotnik tried to give an act of reminiscing on old pleasant memories. "Old Spenc. He's a good man..." He responded with a failed hidden bitter taste within his mouth from his own words.
'Okay... I definitely now don't trust this egomaniac...' Tom declared in his thought with a blank expression on his face, "Right. Come on inside," He gestured for Robotnik to come inside as the Doctor smiled that his act worked just for him to be stopped by Tom to his surprise, "But... Spencer works at the mail company and prefers ultimate frisbee... Mind telling me who you really are and why you think I am dumb enough to let you inside my house? Especially when power companies take their readings from the outside. Not inside..." The Green Hills Police Officer challenged to Robotic Egotistical Doctor, locking eyes with each other with ferocious determination.
A small chuckle was emitted by Robotnik as he used one of his other gloves to activate a few drones, alongside Omega E-123, to analyze the house as he personally deals with Tom. "Well. This is somewhat of an unexpected turn of events. How about we start over from the top, shall we?" Robotnik declared with a more threatening tone of voice.
Tom greeted Robotnik's threatening tone with a sly expression before speaking, "I would like that actually. Name's Tom Wachowski, even though my dentist calls me Tim at this point..." He began as he ended with an absentminded sidenote as he pondered if he should correct this detail or not.
"Yeah, whatever... I don't believe that you can comprehend who exactly you're messing with Mister Wachowski. Despite how popular you might be within this glorified truck stop since the days of tipping cows and getting drunk!" He went on before going about an act to portray his description that only just weirded Tom out than intimidated him, "And whatever pathetic dream you might have will never top all of what I HAVE achieved! After all, when I was a toddler. I, Doctor Ivo Robotnik, was spitting out formulas while you were spitting them up." He declared while getting close to Tom's face as the Police Officer just continued to get weirded out by this display of "intimidation".
"I was breastfed actually..." Tom replied as Robotnik proceeded to grow enraged by the comment.
With an enraged scowl, Ivo spoke through gritted teeth, "Smart idea to throw that in my orphan face pal..." Pure fury was leaking through his voice as Tom tried to resist gaging at the smell of Robotnik's breath. "Now, I hope you know your rights Mister Wachowski. Because as an Agent of The US Military, if I were to say find you guilty of treason. Your fate will be far worse than Death." He finished off as Omega walked over with loud thuds of his feet and his right hand morphed into a cannon. Ready to fire at Tom upon the Doctor's command.
"Hey, Orphan boy!" Shouted the voice of a teenage tomboy within the house, "Mind backing off of my Dad." Approached V, yet looked as if she was fully human. With a hand placed on her hip, V glared at the Doctor and Omega was a degree of her form of verbal threat. "Besides, even if you are with the US Military as you claim. I think you would know that you need still a warrant to get access to search someone's house unless you have probable cause, which you don't." She finished off as both Tom and Ivo were a bit surprised by her arrival.
Backing away from Tom, the Doctor looked her over before asking, "What's your name, little girl?"
"Vicky Wachowski. Also, you should be aware that my dad here is a Police Officer for the town. Hence that he knows how this situation goes around." V declared with a snarky tone and raised eyebrow, "You were acting like a creep from the start, Mister Robo. Who in their right mind let someone acting like a crazed stalker into their home with such a made-up tale, hm?" She finished off as Tom gestured to V as if to emphasize the point made by her.
"The young lady has a point, Doctor Robotnik." Declared Omega as he reverted his hand to normal, though this statement just made Ivo more irritated as he gave up on this before the sounds of sudden falling boxes, breaking vases, and more sounded off from inside. Making both V and Tom extremely panicked despite their efforts to hide it.
"Old Pipes." Tom announced with a nervous tone. V nodded to confirm this as both Omega and Robotnik looked at each other for a second.
With a small shrug, Robotnik began to head out. "Yeah. It might be the house settling. Nothing to see here." He announced before bolting inside before either V or Tom could react. Yet, once again, Tom's skin was saved thanks to the efforts of N who was also using a human disguise as he held a broom in a way to express he was trying to force some of the raccoons out of the house. Even the raccoon was looking at Omega and Robotnik with an expression akin to 'What are you looking at weirdo?' Baffling Robotnik by how things were playing out.
With V taking the lead on this, she shouted at N, "Nathan! How many times do we have to tell you to NOT use a broom to deal with the Raccoons!?" This resulted in Omega to facepalm at this entire situation, just as frustrated by all of this.
Tom nodded in agreement Robotnik angrily rubbed his face before adding, "Exactly. Maddie has already spoken to you about this multiple times about this." N then began to express guilt about his actions as the Raccoon ate some of the cake that he found himself in. As if he was a viewer of a live-action movie.
"The is... I am never wrong..." Robotnik declared with an exhausted groan and raised finger as he began to leave alongside Omega until he caught a glimpse of something strange from the corner of his eyes. It was pulsating with a bright cyan blue as if it was filled with power. As Robotnik picked it up and turned to the trio while holding the blue quill in hand, they all knew that they fucked up.
