Chapter 3 – Sonic, Tails and Knuckles meets Sticks

Sonic, Tails and Knuckles continued through the jungle on a search for Eggman. Fortunately he left a trail behind him. Sonic looked around as he walked "boy Egghead sure is dumb, look at all this damaged he's caused, It'll be so easy to follow him," the hedgehog said as he looked at all the destruction.

"I wanna know what he wants with my crystal." Knuckles growled as he followed behind.

"He's wants to take over the world, he always wants to do that, but we stop him every time he try's." Sonic said with a smirk.

"Hey, do you guys have a feeling we're being watched?" Tails asked feeling nervous.

"Come to think a….whoa!" Sonic yelped along with the other two as they pulled off the ground and caught in a net and they were now hanging in a tree. "What the!" Sonic uttered

"We're caught in a net!" Tails said as he struggled about, and he yelped when Knuckles push his foot into his face "hey get your foot outta my face Knuckles!"

"Ow sorry Sonic's elbow in my face!" Knuckles complained.

"Your butt is touching me Knucklehead….right we gotta stop struggling guys try stay still for a sec!" Sonic said struggling about.

Tails sighed "alright!"

They suddenly stayed still and they managed to pull themselves up to look around "now that's better." Sonic exclaimed as he looked around the area while holding onto the net.

"This is old school for Eggman, why would he set a trap like this?" Tails wondered out loud.

"I don't think this is Eggman's trap.." Sonic replied as he spotted footprints.

"AHHHHHH HAAAAA!" Came a female voice.

"huh!" All three of them uttered in the direction on the tree's.

Sonic looked around for the source of the voice and his eyes widened when a female badger jumped out wielding a boomerang. "Well, well well, looks like I caught some government agents!" She said with a smirk and her hands at the side her left hand holding her boomerang.

"Huh..Government agents what are you on about, who are you?!" Sonic asked with a raised eyes.

The badger scrunched her eyes "you think I'm dumb enough to tell you that information! I should be the one asking the questions around here!"

"Look my names Sonic, this is Tails and this Knuckles," the blue hedgehog said pointing at Tails and Knuckles who nodded.

"We're trying to stop a guy named Eggman he's trying take over the world." Sonic explained moving about in the net.

"I don't believe you, your out to destroy my home!" The badger yelled angrily.

Sonic's eyes went wide "we never do a thing like that! It's Eggman he's been destroying everything lately!"

The badger frowned in thought "who is this Eggman?!"

"Have you seen metal things going about there things destroying everything around here!" Sonic explained hoping the badger would let them go.

The badger frowned once more in thought "alright I believe you, you couldn't have made this mess I'll let you but I still don't trust you fully!"

The female badger went to the side of the tree and cut the rope causing all three of them to fall to the ground all three making a grunt noise. Sonic sighed as he stood up straight and dusted himself off. "Well I'm glad you believe us, we can stop Eggman from destroying your home don't sweat it!"

The badger suddenly had an idea "I wanna come with you guys and stop him myself! My names Sticks by the way." Sticks said as she clutched her boomerang.

Sonic raised his eye "uuuh it'll be dangerous can you fight?"

"I sure can I've been fighting wild animals all my life, gotta survive some how out in the wild, besides I gotta nose that sniff out anything!" Sticks exclaimed proudly.

Sonic sighed "okay you can come."

Tails went over and picked up a piece of metal from a robot "why don't you sniff out this Sticks maybe you'll be able to pick up the scent of Eggman?" The fox brought the piece over to the badger and held it out for her.

"Sure, I'll give it a go!" Sticks scrunched her eyes in concentration and sniffed the part of a robot and suddenly her eyes widened "I got it!" She cheered "follow me!" She got down on the ground and started sniffing out a trail.

"I wish I could do that," Knuckles said as the three followed the badger.

After what seemed like a long time, Sticks lead the group to a temple deep in the jungle. It was a tall building with ruins scattered all around it. Mother nature had taken over the place with lots of vines and tree's growing all around it.

Sonic stopped the group from going any further "hey guys check it out eggheads robots, he must be inside that temple and his robots are guarding the place."

"He's definitely in there, I'm getting a strong smell in my nose." Sticks said as she frowned at the robots.

"What's the plan Sonic?" Tails asked his adoptive brother.

"Well, we have to take out those robots first, then we can enter the temple. Come on let's sneak up on them," Sonic suggested.

They their way through the trees and over to where the robots were each of them snuck up on each of the four robots and jumped them. They were all easily able to take them down. Sonic was impressed with Sticks "well done guys we can go in the temple."

"We have to be careful there could be booby traps," Sticks said as she gazed inside.

They all entered the temple and walked through the first corridor with no problem, though candles had lit up as they walked. Suddenly Tails who was unaware, he stood on a panel and suddenly a huge hammer came crashing through Tails yelped as he fell back "ahh!"

"That was one big hammer!" Knuckles exclaimed.

"Careful Tails, come on let's jump through the side here," Sonic said as he jumped through the gaps. They continued on and finally reached a large open room "would you look at the size of this room!" Tails said in awe.

"It is pretty big, hey look!" Knuckles exclaimed as he pointed towards a large statue of what looked like a hedgehog wearing a crown and there was an area that was open at the bottom of it and in the middle was a podium.

But that that was not all floating in his egg mobile was doctor Eggman with his two robots orbot and cubot "its Eggman!" Sonic eyes widened but they wandered down beside Eggman there was something too Sonic it looked like a female hedgehog he noticed that she was tied up.
