The Chase 2/2
(Theme song - Kim Possible by Disney Channel on YouTube)
(Abigail's POV)
*Sonic & I dodged an attack from E-100. Uncle Chuck & Professor Pickle watched from their glass prison*
Sonic: Swing and a double miss!
Uncle Chuck: Careful, kids! That's one of Eggman's Super Badniks!
Sonic: Yeah-Yeah-Yeah. I've tangled with these E-100 mooks before. *to the Badniks* I guessing you're not going to randomly "turn good," huh?
Abigail: I guess would be, and I quote, "no."
Huckleberry: Choa-Choa.
*We dodged another attack*
Sonic: You know, I wouldn't mind some back-up from our team!
Abigail: You and me both!
Huckleberry: Chao-Chao!
(Lacey's POV)
*We made into the car, but we didn't find the Professors. Instead we found . . .*
Sally: He devoted an entire train car to a foosball table?
Rotor: Oh, gross! The foosball is shaped like Sonic's head!
Lacey: Vomitrocious!
Amy: Guys!? I think I hear fighting in the next car . . .
*The train hit another sharp turn*
Rotor: It doesn't matter if this train is Eggman tech. If we got another turn like that at this speed, we're all toast.
Sally: Let's hurry.
Amy: Hopefully, what I heard was Sonic and Abby clearing out the defenses for us.
Lacey: I get the feeling you're right.
*Rotor helped both of us through the open hatch*
Sally: Speaking of which . . . Sally to air support. Tails? Antoine? Bunnie? Does anybody copy?
Bunnie:*off-screen* We're dealing with a swarm of Badniks, Sally-Girl, and I'm about all tuckered out.
Sally: Copy that, Bunnie. Don't overexert yourself. Tornado and Twister, take care of the Badniks on the double! I think we've found the Professors. So we're going to need a pick-up soon!
(Abigail's POV)
*Sonic & I dodged & attacked the Badnik as it tried to catch us*
Uncle Chuck: That's it, Sonny-Boy! Abby! Run rings around it!
Professor Pickle: Gracious! Such a surely mechanical porter! Do not tip him, children!
Abigail: Don't worry, Professor! The only thing he'll get from us is a beat down!
Huckleberry: Chao-Chao!
Abigail:*on her way* If we don't beat this thing soon, it's gonna wreck the train car . . . But Sonic doesn't have any room to pick up speed! And if we get too reckless, Uncle Chuck and the Professor might get hurt by accident.
*Suddenly, the train did another sharp turn. Uncle Chuck lost his balance & hit his head on the glass wall, getting knocked unconscious*
Professor Pickle: Charles!? My word . . . Charles! Wake up!
Sonic & Abigail: Uncle Chuck!?
Huckleberry: Chao-Chao!
*Suddenly, the Badnik knocked me & Huck away & trapped Sonic in-between it's claws*
Sonic: That's it! You wanna play rough!? I'm gonna - !
*Huck & I flinched when I saw his teeth getting really sharp & hearing him growling like a wild animal again. Suddenly, Amy & Lacey came flying in through the open hatch & knocked the Badnik off of Sonic with a kick & a smash from a hammer. Sally & Rotor were right behind them*
Sally: Good work, guys! Keep that thing busy while we get the Professors!
*Sonic quickly calmed down hear her voice*
Sonic: . . . Right . . . *Amy managed to flatten the Badnik's claws with her hammer while Lacey helped me & Huck. Sonic got in a spin dash in front of Amy* Croquet special!
Amy: Coming' right up!
*She hit him hard & he went right into it's chest. Meanwhile, Sally & Rotor got the Professors out of their prison*
Rotor: Whoa . . . The "glass" is a morphogenic semi-solid compound that . . .
Sally: Focus on the mission, please!
*Rotor picked up Uncle Chuck*
Rotor: Whoops! My bad! I've got you, Uncle Chuck!
Sally: Right this way, Professor!
Professor Pickle: Ah! Finally. Some courteous service. Lead the way, my dear.
*They lead the Professors out of the car*
Sonic: Awesome! We've managed to make it mad!
Amy: ARGH! Zero wasn't this annoying!
Sally: We've got the Professors! Biplanes are inbound! Get out of there!
*Lacey & I quickly got out of the car & then got on our airboards. Sonic picked up Amy bridal style, causing her to blush*
Sonic: You heard the lady!
Amy: EEP! *she bashed the Badnik away with her hammer as it came towards them* BACK OFF!
*They then got out of the car & Sonic ran across the train cars*
Sonic: . . . Yeah. That'll do. That'll do. That'll do nicely.
Amy: What? What will do nicely? *we were coming up to a bridge with the Tornado flying near it* . . . Oh. No. No-no-no-no-no!
Abigail: Sonic! What are you doing!?
Sonic: Don't worry! I got this!
*Amy closed her eyes as the train went over the bridge*
Amy: AHHH! I can't watch!
Sonic: But you'll miss all the fun!
*He then jumped off the train & landed on the wing of the Tornado*
Amy: That . . . Was . . . Nerve-racking!
Sonic: And yet you're standing on the wings of a plane.
Amy: I . . . But . . . Shut up!
*Sonic laughed & I rolled my eyes. What a goofball. Sally had Professor Pickle on her airboard, Rotor had Uncle Chuck on his, & Bunnie was on the wing of the Twister as she destroyed the last Badnik*
Sally: What's the Badnik situation, Bunnie?
Bunnie: That was the last one, Sally-Girl. We're in the clear.
Antoine: Not ze moment too soon!
Sally: After much hassle, we've got the Professors.
Sonic: And the Super Badnik is on a train going nowhere fast. So . . . Yay us!
Abigail: Awesome job, everyone!
Sally: Let's get back to the Sky Patrol.
*Once we were on the Sky Patrol, I got Uncle Chuck an ice pack for the bump on his head. Sonic, Sally, Tails, Huck, & I then met up with him & Professor Pickle in the Briefing Room & then they told us some surprising news*
Sonic: What do you mean "we lost your stuff"!?
Professor Pickle: Precisely what I said, m'boy. You failed to require all the research materials I'd required, as well as all the samples Charles had collected.
*Sonic tapped his foot, annoyed*
Sonic: Oh, so you didn't think to bring it up while I was busy saving your lives!?
Professor Pickle: You were quite involved with your fisticuffs. It would have been rude to interrupt. From there, it must have . . . Mmm . . . Slipped my mind.
Uncle Chuck: My excuse is that I was unconscious.
Abigail: He does have a point there, Sonic.
*He pinched the bridge between his eyes*
Sonic: And this guy's supposed to be a "genius," folks . . . *I elbowed him* OW!
Sally: Thank you, Abby.
Abigail: Anytime, Sally.
Sally: Professor Pickle, what was it you were researching? What did Dr. Eggman want with you?
Professor Pickle: Ah, well . . . I had nearly completed decoding the Gaia Manuscripts. To put it simply, they tell of an ancient myth revolving around the death and rebirth of our world. Every ten thousand years, the world is said to shatter apart, much like our current predicament, mmm? Now, according to the manuscripts, there are seven Gaia Temples located throughout the world. They're said to have some sort of connection to the Chaos Emeralds, somehow tying into their power. From what I've gathered, it seems that when the Chaos Emeralds are gathered and placed in the seven Gaia Temples, they will restore the world to order and begin the process of rebirth.
Sally: Hmm . . . Eggman was eager for this information, so I'm better the Professor's on the right track.
Sonic: Sure, why not! Given all the funky stuff I've seen, world-fixing temples don't seem like a stretch.
Sally: And if this a reoccurring phenomenon, it'd help explain how our atmosphere is still working.
Abigail: Professor Pickle, do you know where the temples are and how they work?
Professor Pickle: I'm afraid not, my dear. I hadn't finished decoding the manuscripts, nor had I verified the two locations I had found . . . And I certainly can't hazard a guess why Dr. Eggman would want my research.
Uncle Chuck: Oh, I can tell you that with certainly. He wants to control how the world gets pit back together, or even hold them entire planet hostage. It's how he works. Corrupting anything good that he touches and twisting it to suit his selfish needs.
Professor Pickle: Ah! Like he did with your Roboticizor?
Uncle Chuck:*sigh* Yes, Dillon. Like with the Roboticizor.
*I flinched at that. I know Uncle Chuck will probably never forgive himself for unwillingly aiding Eggman in beginning this war*
Sonic: Well, of the Professor's notes point out only two of the temples, that doesn't give Eggman that much of a head start.
Sally: Right. And while he's catching up on his reading, we know what we need to be looking for already!
Sonic: Booyah! Seven Emeralds and seven temples! We've got the Sky Patrol! We've got the Freedom Fighters back on track! We've got me! How hard can it be?
Sally: I'll get in contact with our friends abroad and get them to help in the search! Nicole can scan the EggNet for any related data.
Abigail: With all of us working together, we'll have the world back together in on time!
Uncle Chuck: I hate to undercut your optimism, but there's more.
Sonic: Huh? Oh, right! Something's about the samples you took from the Great Forest?
Uncle Chuck:*to Professor Pickle* Did the Gaia Manuscripts say anything about a sickness coming out of the earth?
Professor Pickle: Hmm . . . Actually, I believe so. Something about a "Dark Gaia" that instigated corruption and the supposed destruction of the world. A rather nasty malevolent deity.
Uncle Chuck: Well, I don't know if any evil Gods are involving, but the strange dark energy seeping put of the ground is some nasty stuff! Just a few short tests proved it was highly dangerous, corruptive, and had mutagenic properties. We're talking the possibility of total cellular re-write.
Sonic: I'm fine, Unc. Honest.
*Hearing that didn't make me feel any better. I could still remove his teeth turning into fangs while he was fighting the Badnik*
Uncle Chuck:*sigh* Anyway, before, the the minor earthquakes, it was seeping out, the concentration seemed quite low. With the world as it is, it's pouring out. We've got to fix things before we reach total global saturation.
Sonic: On top of the whole shattered world thing.
Uncle Chuck: Hey, of anyone can handle this kind adventure, it's you.
Sally: Why do I feel like you're purposefully leaving me out of the loop on something?
Sonic: It's nothing!
Abigail: That's not what it looked like to me earlier.
Sonic: Really! We've got plenty of other stuff to worry about right now, girls.
Professor Pickle: Speaking of which, there is something else we need to discuss. *he turned to me* You're Miss Abigail Catz, correct?
Abigail: Um . . . Yeah, that's me.
Professor Pickle: Excellent. I've been wanting to talk to you for the past several months, concerning the stone around your neck and the power it holds.
*Me, Huck, Sonic, & Sally all froze*
Abigail: H - How do you know about that!?
Professor Pickle: Charles told me about it.
Sonic: Unc! I thought we agreed to keep this a secret! Did you change your mind about tell all your buddies!?
Uncle Chuck: Relax. Dillon is the only person I've told about this. He is my colleagues after all and I've learned a lot from him. I thought he could be a great help in unraveling this mystery.
Professor Pickle: Indeed. When Charles told me about this, I remembered something I researched a few years ago.
*He reached into his jacket & pulled out a very old scroll*
Sally: What is that?
Professor Pickle: This is an ancient scroll that was discovered a few years ago in a temple in Mercia. The archeologists gave it to me to translate. Unfortunately, I have been unable to do that. It seems to be written in an ancient language I've never seen before. *he handed me the scroll* I was able to grab it before Charles and I were captured.
*I opened it & saw a lot of symbols that looked secret code. At the top was a picture of the sun. Sally pulled Nicole out*
Sally: Nicole, see if you can translate this scroll.
*Nicole scanned the paper. After a few seconds of silence . . .*
Nicole: Language not found.
*Everyone, except me, looked shocked*
Uncle Chuck: Not even Nicole knows this language. Surprising.
Sonic: I don't see how anybody can read this. It just looks like alphabet soup to me.
"While everyone's was trying to figure the writing out, I kept looking at scroll. For some reason, I felt drawn to it. Just then, my pendant started glowing & then the symbols on the paper started changing. Right before my eyes, they turned into letters. I shook my head & blinked twice to make sure I wasn't seeing things, but the letters were still there. I read it & my eyes went wide*
Abigail: The Song of Healing.
*Everyone looked at me*
Sally: What?
Abigail: The song I sang when I healed Antoine from his coma. That's what's written on this scroll. It can heal any sickness or injury.
Sally: Wait, how did you . . . *she saw my pendant glowing* Ah. Of course.
Sonic: Cool!
Sally: Professor Pickle, where in Mercia is the temple those archeologists found this?
Professor Pickle: They said it was in a giant old hollow tree in the Northern part. They also said that there were more scrolls like this one, but it was the only the only one they came back with.
Sally: Why?
Professor Pickle: They did not say.
Sonic: Well, looks like we're going on an archeology dig of our own.
*I was surprised to hear that. I never thought I would ever be going back to my home county*
Sally: We certainly got our work cut out for us. Follow me, Professor. We'll arrange for your trip back to Spagonia. I'll send word to G.U.N. that Eggman is targeting you.
Professor Pickle: Yes, thank you. I'm quite eager to get my office back in order. I do hope Muttski has misfiled anything. I'm very particular, you know . . .
*She & the Professor left*
Sonic: Yeah, Muttski sounded pretty rattled. It'll do him some good to see you're fine.
Uncle Chuck: Right this moment, I'm more concerned about you being fine.
Sonic: I keep telling you, I'm fine! I just got a face full of the stuff and coughed it all out.
Uncle Chuck: I've seen greater effects from smaller doses. You're sure you haven't felt . . . Off lately?
*I remembered when he first breathed in that purple gas, the snarling sounds he made. What happened in Station Square, according to what I heard from Lacey. And what I saw during his battle against the Super Badnik on the train*
Sonic: C'mon, Unc! It's me. I can handle whatever comes my way.
*He left with Uncle Chuck. I just stayed where I was, feeling worried*
Abigail:*in her mind* Why does he have to be so stubborn? Why won't he listen to us. *I looked down at my pendant* I should try to find out what's going to happen to him.
*I left the room & went straight to mine here on the Sky Patrol, hopefully to get a vision to appear*
