Champions 2/4
(Theme song - Kim Possible by Disney Channel on YouTube)
(Abigail's POV)
*The tournament has now begun & Sonic was in the ring, fighting against a guy in a karate uniform. Then he kicked the guy in the face, hard*
Sonic: Aaaaaaaand you're done!
Wes Weasely:*off-screen* And the winner by T.K.O., Sonic!
*The crowd cheered as the guy stood up & bowed to Sonic*
Karate Guy: I have lost to the Sonic the Hedgehog. I feel no shame in this.
*Sonic bowed back*
Sonic: You fought pretty well, mister. Thanks for keeping things interesting.
*Then he went to enjoy his time in the spotlight as the crown chanted his name. Just then, Huck & I noticed the time & ran to the ring to warn him. Amy probably had the same idea because she was there too*
Amy:*whispering* Sonic! Psst! Hey!
Sonic: Is your fight next?
Amy: Yes, but - !
Sonic: Keep your boots on, I'll move in a minute.
Abigail: Sonic, it's almost sunset!
Huckleberry: Chao-Chao!
*Sonic realized we were right*
Sonic: Thanks-for-that-guys-good-luck-Amy-gotta-go!
*He immediately zoomed off the stage & towards his hotel suite*
(Third-Person POV)
*Meanwhile, Espio was in stealth mode as he watched the fights from the ceiling*
Espio:*in his mind* Things are going smoothly. Sonic has won his first match. Tails will face Honey who appears to be an ally. Either victor is still good for our cause. And Amy - *he looked towards Amy's fight & got nervous when he saw her hit her opponent with her hammer hard, smacking him into the ropes* . . . Yeah, Amy will fine. *he went back to serious mode* The Hooligans are my only concern. I'll be fighting Bean first, but I can handle gabbering dope. I just with I could find Knuckles and Julie-Su and let them know I added them to the roster.
(Julie-Su's POV)
*Knuckles & I were hiding behind some potted ferns in the Gaming Hall as we watched a fat rich looking Overlander woman show off a necklace, which had a Master Emerald shards in it*
Fat Lady: . . . And this little number set me back quite a bit! It's made by this very exclusive jeweler. You won't have heard of him.
*That's was when we decided to come out of hiding*
Knuckles: Actually, that's a shard of a larger gem. You must've found it in your backyard or something. It belongs to us. We need it back. Now.
Julie-Su: So hand it over.
*The fat lady turned to us*
Fat Lady: I don't know who you two think you are, but I wear only the finest in exclusive jewelry!
*While we were keeping her busy, Chip switched out the Master Emerald shards she was wearing for a piece of celery*
Knuckles: Excuse us. We must've been mistaken.
Fat Lady: Hmph. Indeed! *she walked away without her entourage while we walked off with the shard* Honestly! They seem to let any riff-raff in here these days!
*Knuckles gave Chip a pat on the head for a good job*
Chip: . . . This is a Master Emerald shard, right? We didn't just rob that lady?
Knuckles: It's what we're looking for, all right. I can feel it's power. I thought I was sensing a large cluster of them. But now that we're here, I realize I was feeling the Master Emerald they're using as a prize.
Chip: Well, once we grab that one, we can add it to the one I found in the mines, we'll be that much closer to saving the world!
Julie-Su: Yeah . . . Which means we're that much closer to dropping Angel Island into the ocean . . .
*Chip then saw something on one of the TVs*
Chip: Oh, neat! One of the tournament fighters as two tails!
*We both turned around & saw a someone we hadn't seen in a long time*
Knuckles & Julie-Su: What the - Tails!?
Chip: Yeah, that's what I said!
Knuckles: If he's here, that means Sonic probably is, too. Maybe we can . . .
*Suddenly, Chip noticed something & got nervous*
Chip: Psst! Knuckles! Julie-Su!
*We turned around & saw a robot chicken wearing a black suit followed by two Badniks coming towards us*
Scratch: HEY! YOU TWO! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!?
*Knuckles & I got ready to fight them while Chip hid behind us*
Chip: Oh, no! The celery decoy failed! They're on to us!
*But they didn't attack us*
Scratch: COME ON! YOU'LL BE LATE FOR YOUR ROUNDS IN THE TOURNAMENT! YOU WANT THAT EMERALD OR NOT?
*Knuckles & I were both confused*
Julie-Su: Huh? When did we enter the . . .
*Knuckles shrugged*
Chip: This is perfect! Either of you could just win the Emerald!
Knuckles: Hey . . . Yeah! Lucky us!
*We did a three-way fist-bump*
(Abigail's POV)
*Me, Huck, & Amy were in the stands, ready to watch Tails face-off against Honey*
Wes Weasley:*off-screen* From the heart of Empire City! Coming to you live from Casino Park! It's the next round of the Chaos Battle Royale! Tonight's program is brought to you in part by . . . The Meropis tourism board! . . . Wherever that is . . . Hexaco Energy. Building a brighter, healthier tomorrow! Aaaaaand Meteortech, now under new, non-evil management! Fancy that! *the arena around Tails & Honey started to change into a boat on rapids* Our state-of-the-art dynamic arena is generating our next battlefield, aaaand - Ooh! We've got a rocky river ride! How exciting!
*Tails & Honey shook hands*
Honey: Well, here we go! Good luck! Let's give 'em a show!
Tails: Heh heh. I'm not really much of a showman. I'm just here for the Chaos Emerald and save the world.
Honey: Ah, but you have to make the clientele happy . . .
*She squeezed his hand & then kicked him in the stomach. Then she went for a high-kick, but Tails dodged. Then Tails spun around like a top, hitting Honey multiple times. Then he went for a spin dash, but Honey dodged*
(Lacey's POV)
*All of us were in the living room on the Sky Patrol, watching the tournament. Cream was looking worried about Tails*
(Abigail's POV)
*Tails went in for a final attack to knock Honey out of the ring*
Honey: Look out! Rogue wave!
*Tails stopped & turned around*
Tails: Whoa! Where - !?
Abigail: Tails! Don't let your guard down!
Huckleberry: Chao-Chao!
*Suddenly, Honey went in for a fake-out attack. Then she punched him in the jaw with an uppercut, knocking him out of the ring*
(Lacey's POV)
Cream: THAT'S CHEATING!
*Her scream made us all jumped out of our seats*
(Abigail's POV)
Wes Weasley:*off-screen* And the winner by ring out, Honey!
*Huck & I both sighed*
Abigail: That's what he gets for turning his back on his opponent.
Huckleberry: Chao . . .
Tails: What's the big idea!? I thought you were helping us!?
Honey: I am. If I win, the Chaos Emerald is yours. But this is a fighting tourney, kiddo. We're here to tussle!
*Tails stomped off with a huff*
Tails: We'll, I'm not! You just knocked me out in the first round! And you cheated!
Honey: Alls fair in love and war. And business is a little bit of both. C'mon! I'll make amends. I know just the look for you!
Tails: Uh . . .?
*The next match was Espio versus Bean*
Espio: I didn't expect us meet again so soon
Bean: Do I know you? The horn's kinda familiar. But then again, I hang out with a lot of coatracks.
*Espio rushed in for an attack*
Espio: This is a joke? Pumpkin Hills? The mines? You tried to leave us in a watery grave!
*Bean leaned backward to dodge a kick from him*
Bean: Oh! Right-right-right. You're the samurai lizard guy. NEEGH . . . I need more lumbar support . . .
*Espio landed on the ground & threw a giant shuriken at him*
Espio: Ninja! I am not samurai lap-dog!
*Bean yawned & dodged by walking away from where it landed*
Bean: Oh, I'd hope not. You'd make a really ugly dog!
*Espio then got really angry & started spinning like a twister as he charged at Bean*
Abigail:*in her mind* He's letting Bean mess with his head.
Espio: STOP BABBLING AND FIGHT ME!
Bean: Mmm . . . Nope. I don't think I will.
*He stuck his foot at just the right moment & tripped Espio, making him fall out of the ring. Huck & I sighed. We saw this coming*
Wes Weasley:*off-screen* And the winner by ring out, Bean!
Espio: . . . You baited me. You were playing mw from the start.
*Bean just gave him an evil grin*
*After that, it was Knuckles versus Bark*
Knuckles: You again, huh? That suits me just fine. Any last words?
*Bark didn't say anything & punched him in the face. then he grabbed Knuckles & threw him into the ice wall. He went for another punch, but Knuckles blocked it & then he punched Bark in the stomach. Bark then landed a blow to his head & another punch to his face. Knuckles then punched him in the jaw & then he & Bark pushed against each other. Then he let got & gave Bark a firey punch to the jaw, knocking him out cold*
Wes Weasley:*off-screen* And the winner by knock out, Knuckles!
*Me, Huck, Amy, & Honey all cheered from the stands. Espio just clapped nonchalantly. Talis, on the other side, was pouting while wearing a Honey Brand bowtie*
Amy: Woo! Go Knuckles!
Abigail: Way to go!
Huckleberry: Chao-Chao!
Tails: I could've done that . . .
Amy: Oh, stop pouting. We didn't even know Knuckles was competing! That's somebody else on our side! And Honey and I are both advancing!
Abigail: That's right. As long as we get the Chaos Emerald, it doesn't matter how well we do in the tournament.
Huckleberry: Chao-Chao.
Honey: You gotta look on the bright side, kiddo. For instance, now that you're eliminated, don't have to fight Knuckles. Amy, on the other hand . .
Amy: Wait! What!? I'm fighting Knuckles!?
Abigail: Oh boy.
Huckleberry: Chao . . .
Honey: Yep . . . And I get Sonic.
*Once Knuckles fight was over Julie-Su was up next against
Wes Weasley:*off-screen* Our next round is Nack the Weasel versus Julie-Su the Echidna!
Abigail: Julie-Su's here too?
Huckleberry: Chao?
Amy: We should have known. Her and Knuckles are practically joined at the hip.
Honey: Friend of yours?
Tails: Yeah. She's Knuckles' girlfriend.
Honey: Oh, really?
*The fight started with Julie-Su going in for a punch. Nack dodged & went for an uppercut punch, Julie-Su dodged that too & landed a punch in Nack's stomach*
Nack: Oof! Cheap shot! I suppose I shouldn't expect nothing less from a former Dark Legionar.
*'Su started to look angry*
Abigail: 'Su! *she looked up at me in audience* Don't listen to him! He's just trying to mess with your emotions!
*'Su nodded at me & went back to the fight. She kicked him in the face & then went for a punch to the chest, he dodged that*
Julie-Su: If you think you can get me to crack, you're dead wrong.
*She went for another kick, but he dodged that again*
Nack: Fine by me. I probably don't need to. What with the issues you have to deal with.
Julie-Su: What's that supposed to mean!?
Nack: Nothing. Just that if I had a family as insane yours, I'd be too humiliated to even show my face in public again. I honestly I don't know what Knuckles sees in you.
*That was it. 'Su snapped. She charged at him, full throttle, screaming like a banshee. But he quickly dodged her & then, just like Bean did with Espio, tripped her. With that, 'Su was sent flying out of the ring. I face-palmed*
Abigail: I think she's starting to pick up on Knuckles' temper*
Huckleberry: Chao . . .
Wes Weasley:*off-screen* And the winner by ring out, Nack!
*The crowd cheered as Julie-Su looked frustrated. She walked out of the arena with Knuckles waited for her. He patted her shoulder with a smile, making her smile back. I smiled at both of them, happy that they have each other for support*
*Soon as Julie-Su's matches was over, I was literally picked up by an Egg-Swat & taken to the dressing room Breezie had prepared for me. She had even hired professionals to do my hair & make-up. They had a costume (look up "Minazuki Karen [Precure Tsunagaru Pazurun]" by "JellyHeartsArchive" on "DeviantArt") ready for me to wear onstage, but I turned them down. Once I was ready, an Egg-Swat brought me to the entrance to the stage where I had to wait to be introduced*
Wes Weasley:*off-screen* And now, for the halftime performance. Give up it for, possibly the next up-and-coming star, Abigail Catz!
*I made my way on to the stage, where a band made up of Swat-Bots was waiting for me. There were also female robots to be my back-up singers. I nervously waved to the crowd. A few clapped, which those being my friends. I could feel everyone in the audience giving my judging looks*
Abigail: H - Hey, Mobius. Let's get the party started. Hit it!
*Soon, the music started playing, which I immediately recognized as a song I had wrote a while back. Mina must've recommended it to Breezie. I got my confidence back as I sang the song*
*Abigail singing*
Earth, Wind, Fire, and Air.

*The crowd went wild as I bowed*
(Third-Person POV)
*Everyone around the world cheered as they listened to Abigail sing. Even a few members of the Dark Egg Legion were cheering & singing along*
(Abigail's POV)
*I waved to the crowd they cheered some more. I could even hear some yelling for an encore*
Abigail: Thanks everyone! Glad you enjoyed the show!
*I waved to the crowd as I walked offstage. As soon as I made it back to my dressing room, I collapsed on the couch, glad it was over. Just then, the door opened & Breezie stepped in with Scratch, Grounder, & Coconuts*
Breezie: Most impressive performance, my little Starlet.
Coconuts: YOU REALLY ROCKED THE HOUSE!
Abigail: Uh . . . Thanks.
Grounder: CAN I HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH?
*Scratch hit him on the head*
Scratch: IDIOT! WE'RE NOT HERE FOR AUTOGRAPHS! WE'RE HERE TO TALK BUSINESS!
Abigail: Business?
Breezie: Correct. As soon as you finished your performance, my phones have been ringing off the hook. Record companies apparently see you as the next big thing. Probably even bigger than Mina Mongoose or Justin Beaver combined.
*I started to feel a little embarrassed by all the praise*
Abigail: Oh. I don't know if I'm that good.
Breezie: Talented, and modest. Love it. *she put a finger under my chin* Not mention a very pretty face. *I backed away a little, feeling uncomfortable* That's just what I've been looking for.
Abigail: Looking for what?
*She pulled out a contract*
Breezie: How would you like to be the new spokes model for Casino Park, as well as a popstar?
*Her offer completely took me by surprise. The three former Badniks surrounded me*
Coconuts: THINK ABOUT IT, KID. THIS IS THE OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME.
Scratch: CONCERTS, TALK SHOWS, VIP PASSES TO ALL THE MOST EXCLUSIVE PARTIES, LUXURY HOTELS, ALL YOU CAN EAT ROOM SERVICE, ALL THE MONEY YOU'LL EARN . . .
Grounder: AND WE CAN SEE EACH OTHER ALL THE TIME.
*I looked at all four of them. This dis sound like a dream come true & I know most girls my age would immediately jump at a chance like this. But right now, I had my own goals*
Abigail: I'm sorry but I can't accept your offer right now. Right now, I have my duty to the Freedom Fighters and protecting the world. So, again, I have to refuse.
*Breezie gave a glare & then put the contract away*
Breezie: Fine. *she put away the contract & gave me a business card* In case you ever change your mind.
Abigail: Th - Thanks.
*I started to leave the room*
Breezie: You may want to think long and hard about this. After all, what are you going to do with your life once Eggman is defeated for good?
*I nearly felt my heart stop when I heard that. I looked at the card*
