Fires of the Phoenix

(Theme song - Pokemon Journeys - "Journey Stars Today" Official English Opening)

(Abigail's POV)

*It's been a month since Sally's & my "court date". My friends decided to put the raid on the Eggdome on hold until my "punishment" from my Dad was over. While I was on house arrest, the Freedom Fighters spent the month working on the attack plan. On the plus side, my baby brother, Toby had recently gotten out of the hospital. "Today, I was riding with Sally & Rotor in a jeep with Sonic running beside us & lasers being blasted at us from behind*

Sonic: Welcome back to the team, Abby! Having fun yet?

Abigail: You bet! Tons of fun!

Sally: Stop here! *Rotor stopped the jeep* Sonic! Amy! Antoine! Abby! Clear the immediate area! *I got out of the jeep, pulled out my hook swords, & ran to help them knocked away the Legionars in our way* Bunnie! Give us some cover!

Bunnie: Good as done, Sal!

*She blocked the lasers being blasted at us from behind. We then snuck up on Lien-Da, the second - in - command, while the Chaotix distracted her. Sonic then destroyed the hovercraft she was riding*

Sonic: Whoops! You forgot about us!

*After they landed on the ground, Lien-Da pulled out a whip*

Lien-Da: I won't be embarrassed by a base Mobian like you!

Sonic: Yow! Careful with that!

*Before she could land a hit, Antoine cut the whip*

Antoine: Allying with ze Eggman, then such vile remarks? Have you no honor?

Lien-Da: Don't you dare judge me! *she ran back to her army of Legionars* Pull back to the perimeter! Call for some blasted support!

*The Dark Egg Legion ran away*

Charmy: The Dark Egg Legion is in retreat, Princess!

Sally: Thank you, Charmy. Spread the word to regroup.

*She pulled out her handheld computer*

Tails:*on the computer* Reporting in, Sally! I'm done ahead of schedule!

Sally: Good work, Tails. Meet up with us. It's time to finish this. *soon, we were all standing on a cliff, overlooking the Dark Egg Legion, with weapons at the ready* Stay together, everyone. If they refuse to surrender, they still outnumber us.

Sonic: Not really. Since I count for, like thirty of them.

*The Dark Egg Legion raised their weapons*

Sally: Tails, shut them down.

*Tails pressed a button on a remote & all their weapons shut down*

Sonic: Smooth,

*I ruffled Tails' head*

Abigail: That's our little genius.

*Sally called out to the Dark Egg Legion*

Sally: Your weapons have been deactivated! Surrender and we can end this peacefully!

*Suddenly, a big ball of fire was shot out of the Eggdome & sent flying straight towards us. When it landed, it turned into a giant red robot bird with fire spewing out of it. We all ran in different directions to avoid getting burned*

Charmy: Um . . . The Legion is retreating. Again.

Sally: I'm not concerned about them right now. *to Bunnie* Can you generate another force field?

Bunnie: Sorry, Hon. If I push anymore I'll pass out.

Sally: Everyone run! Scatter! *Not needing to be told twice, I ran for cover. I hide behind a rock next to Sally**to Knuckles* Any ideas?

Knuckles: All of mine involve getting close. Which we can't do. So . . . No.

Tails: Maybe we can use the neutralizing mines?

Knuckles: They can take it out?

Tails: I think so. But they'd have to be on that thing to pack enough punch.

Knuckles: So we're back to the same problem.

*I was about to suggest that I try to use my future sight to see if I could find a weakness in it's armor, but Sally beat me to it*

Sally: I've got it. Knuckles, find Vector. Tails find Bunnie. Here's the plan . . .

*A moment later, Sonic was standing out in the open. He called up to Eggman*

Sonic: HEY EGGMAN! NICE PRYOTECHNICS, BUT YOUR EGG SPARKLER HASN'T HIT ME YET!

*Suddenly, Eggman was firing missiles at him as he ran towards Vector, who launched him info the air towards Knuckles, who threw him to Tails, who finally threw him to Bunnie until they reached the stratosphere. Then the ship stalled & plummeted towards the ground. As it fell, Ray, Charmy, & Saffron placed the mines all over the ship. Turned just before it hit the ground*

Sally: He's coming around. Tails . . .?

Tails: They have a limited range. We have to wait until he's close enough.

*The ship was heading straight towards us*

Abigail: Tails . . .!

Tails: Almost . . . Almost . . .

*Suddenly, as we ducked, the ship started to fritz*

Dr. Eggman:*off-screen* NOOOOOO!

The ship went sailing over our heads & crashed. Just then, Eggman ejected from the wreckage & flew back to the dome. Then the ship exploded as Sonic approached it*

Amy: Sonic! Are you okay?

Sonic: Yeah. Just medium rare.

*Rotor drove up to Sally in the jeep*

Rotor: All clear?

Sally: Yes, you're good. Park it over here and we'll unload the shield generator.

Sonic: Wait. That's it?

Sally: Yes, that's "it". We've made it to the Eggdome's perimeter, driven back the Legion, and survived one of Robotnik's killer machines.

Sonic: I suppose that makes for a full day. Y'know, for you people.

*I giggled & elbowed him*

Abigail: Oh, you.

Sally: Honestly! Go set up camp for the night.

Sonic:*laughing* Sure, sure. *soon, Rotor & Mighty set up a machine in the center of the circle of sleeping bags we had created**to Tails* Nervous?

Tails: No . . . Yeah, I guess. I mean . . . This is it. Tomorrow, when we attack . . . It'll all be over. One way or the other it'll be the end of the war,

Sonic: Yeah. It's about time too. But don't you worry about it, little bro. We've saved the day hundreds of times over. We'll get it right this time too.

*While I listened to them talk, I stared at the Eggdome

Abigail:*in her mind* Tomorrow, Eggman. We'll win back freedom for this world and you will pay for all the people who've hurt in the name of your sick little game. We're coming for you Eggman.
