Chapter 8: Rivalry still pursues

Previous Chapter

Sonic was witnessing the most terrible sight in his sight, an abundance of loud explosions and screams coming out of the innocent civilians. It was just like what Eggman did to last battle. He stood right back up from his break down, patted off the dirt on his legs, and proceeded to be very serious about the current situation by squeezing his two fists, containing his anger.

"Ponyville is under attack!" Twilight warned all of her friends, "We need to go to-"

"No!" interrupted the blue blur, with his whole right hand opened outwards towards Twilight, "Let us do this!"

"Aw come on!" Rainbow flew near his view and tried to change his mind, "We got this! we've done this a ton of times,"

"I don't know how you do things here!" Sonic ignored her plead, "But we got this!"

"Maybe it won't be that bad!" Pinkie Pie graciously smiled at the hedgehog, "We just have to make him change his mind about the bad things he has done!"

"Haven't you paid attention to our STORIES!" Sonics temper raised intensely, "EGGMAN NEVER CHANGES!" EVEN IF HE DOES, HE'LL BETRAY US BEFORE YOU KNOW IT!"

Sonic zipped past through the group into the village, leaving a trail of dust to cover his tracks. Shadow, Knuckles, and the rest of them were about to follow him, but they were stopped by the mane six. Twilight was eager to help them out.

"What's with Sonic's deal?" Twilight issued a question to them, "We know what to do in a fight!"

"Just come with us," Knuckles surrendered, smacking his fist onto each other, "Try to keep up with Eggman's robots,"

"Got it!"

"I'll stay behind and watch over Tails!" Starlight ordered herself

All 10 people ran towards the city, with Dashie flying past all of them, Shadow skating through the ground, Knuckles right behind him, Silver hovering himself, and Amy doing a little dash. As the different creatures prepared to fight against Eggman's army, they decided to spread out into different directions, with Knuckles giving the orders. Twilight and Rainbow were in charge of taking out the robots, Rarity and Fluttershy helped by evacuating the different ponies still inside the buildings, an Aj and Pinkie were doing their own things. Tons of walking robots ran towards the princess herself as she tried to fire multiple laser shots from her horn,

"These creatures are pretty amazing!" Twilight yelled out loud, casting a 360-degree shield bubble around her protecting her self from the different egg pawns, "The enginuity on these things are very complex!"

Knuckles was the first one to hear her, punching a variety of robots one by one, "Focus on the bots Twilight!"

"Sorry!"

Knuckles was on the verge of going up against 2 crab bots followed by 4 bee bots. With all of his might on his two arms, he grabbed the two crabs by their point legs and tossed them onto the flying bees, destroying them both on contact. He wiped his two hands together, "And that's how yo do it!"

"Oh shut it read head!" Silver came up to him, using his telekinesis to levitate 10 bots at once, and slammed his hands downward to make them come crashing down the other robots surrounding him, "That was nothing!"

Twilight caught a glimpse at Silvers skills and was very impressed at it, "Woah! you can use magic too?"

"Well, not really magically...but yeah," Silver answered her back, proceeding to lift up wooden crates and flinging them onto other flying robots.

With Rainbow, on the other hand, she was busy taking out the robots that were oriented in the sky, shotting multiple bullets onto buildings, she was on edge attempting to take out one of them.

Rainbow flew right past different creatures, trying to hit them with her hooves, "Let me kill one of these things!"

She flew past different robotic creatures, trying to outrun them, but they were way too smart for her as they kept on dodging and countering every single move she made. She finally caught an enemy that was staring the opposite direction of her shooting some laser. It was her time to shine, she quickly flapped her wings towards it and prepared to raise her front hooves, bit then her kill was interrupted by Sonic, who instantly dropped kicked it by its legs. He slid past multiple enemies forming a line, got up from his dropkick, and jumped in the air where he curled into a ball to hit even more enemies that were aiming down at some ponies. He was destroying many robots to the point where Rainbow lost count. She was just hovering, witnessing all of it.

"Woah, he's pretty good at a fight!" she spoken to herself, "He's destroying it out there,"

Sonic ignored her compliment and began to dash towards the larger guys. There was a huge robotic creature with two rocket mags behind its back, firing homing missiles towards an innocent mare with her child. Sonic prepared his spindash on the ground and launching himself towards the enemy, making it explode on sight.

"Thank you, young man, for saving me and my little stallion here!" the pony civilian thanked the blue heron.

"You're welcome, now get out of here!" Sonic replied before ordering them to run to safety.

Sonic changed direction as he looked upwards at the large carrier ship flying in the sky, "Now, where is that pesky Egg head at!"

"Woah! calm down their dude!" Dashie flew towards him, looking upwards like him, "You want to go up there?"

Sonic turned to her direction, facing her with a snare face, "Eggman is literally attacking your village! I need to stop this now-!"

Suddenly, a huge, metallic spider robot was descending upon Sonic and Dashies location. It looked like there was a person inside the transparent glass, in the center of the mech. It was none other than Eggman himself, who roughly quaked the earth with his invention standing proud. The glass dome opened up for Eggman to come and speak up.

Eggman was putting on a huge smile, stroking part of his mustache with his thumb and pointer finger, "Well well well, Sonic...long time no see buddy!"

"Don't call me buddy!" Sonic raised a fist at him, "I thought you were in prison!"

The rest of the gang was gathering near Sonic, who was still busy confronting his longtime rival. Amy and Knuckles gasped at the sight of Eggman again, Shadow was still nowhere to be found, and the mane six was making horrid looking faces at the sight of the bipedal creature.

Rarity tried to cover her eyes at the doctor, "What in Celestia is that putrid thing!?"

"That's Eggman for you," Knuckles answered her back, "Looks like things never change with you!"

"But, I thought Sonic managed to place him behind bars?" Rainbow Dash assumed the group.

"Actually...that 'me' in prison was not actually 'me'" Eggman made air quotes with two of his fingers, "That other person was taking my place after spending nearly 6 months here in Equestria!"

"Six months!" the whole Sonic gang screamed out loud.

Eggman proceeded to explain everything, "Yes, while those six months was with the fake me, I was here, doing some exclusive research on the culture, religion, and practices here. It all started after my failed attempted onto stealing the worlds life energy. I was left stranded with nothing but villainy block, trying to think of another plan to take over the world. But when I went over my old plans, I came across an old blueprint of mine!"

"What kind of scheme were you looking at?" Sonic questioned the doctor again.

He replied back to him,"Well, it was actually an unfinished project of mine. I've scrapped that idea and went for another one. It was to replicate the chaos emeralds chaos control through space and time, with the help of quantum physics and heaps of atomic power, I was able to make it work in the form of an arc portal. It worked...too well of course. It caused a tear between our world and this one, sending me into this land! took me more than a couple days to go back into Mobius!"

"Wait a minute," Knuckles paused his explanation, "That sounded familiar to what Tails did!"

The Doctor stood up in his seat at the echidna, "That two-tailed freak! impossible! I keep my blueprints secretly locked up!"

"So you're in the same boat as we are!" Sonic crossed his arms at him, "But that doesn't explain why you sent all of these robots!"

Eggman looked beyond the many robots in the village, "Oh yeah, these robots were just to lure you and your pitty friends here! And you know what I came here for!"

"We aren't giving you the emeralds Doctor Eggman!" Silver readied his fist at him.

"What! I'm not talking about those Chaos Emeralds!" Eggman corrected Silver while pointing straight at Twilight, "I came here for that stupid crown of hers!"

Twilight jerked up her head up at the doctor, letting out a small gasp, "W-what! you know about the elements of harmony too?"

"Of course I do! Tails aren't the only one with a supercomputer that can detect any objects origin!" Eggman wiggled his finger right next to him, "Now would you kindly surrender your crown to me or dire consequence will go to your beloved little town!"

Rainbow got near to his contraption to confront him in his face, "Listen here punk! Don't you dare talk to one of my friends like tha-"

"Oh shut up! you!" Eggman pushed one of many buttons on his keyboard, that attracted a metallic claw to grab Dashie by her torso. She has now constrained in the claws wretches, "You remind me of some blue fellow I know!"

"H-h-hey, let me...go!" Rainbow, with every last breath in her, shouted with her constrained body

"Dashie!" Rarity cried out loud for her trapped friend, "Let go of her with those freaky claws you brute!"

Eggman aimed his right finger at the second button on his console, "Well now dear! This could all stop if you surrender the crown to me!"

"Don't w-w-worry Rarity!" the constrained Dashie spoke right at her, "It's not like he can get all 6 jewels at his grasps! only we have the power to activate them right?"

Eggman mischievously giggled at her sentence, with the rest of the gang still watching it all take place, "Hehehe, so...you're not surrendering me that crown eh? well, I guess I could get it another time, in the meantime, I'll hold on to these!"

Eggman pulled down a lever right across from his right shoulder, revealing a secret compartment right in front of his metallic spider's head. It was 5 out of the six element necklaces, perfectly fitting into his machine.

"It can't be!" Aj panicked at the sight of her necklace in his grasps, "It's da garsh darn elements of harmony!"

Twilight, on the other hand, made an assertive face at the doctors, "How could you managed to possess all those!"

"Well in a nutshell..." Eggman quickly explains his story in brief sentences, "Found tree...blast tree...got fancy jewelry! now it's that simple,"

Sonic jerked his head back at Eggman, "Well, you never really change huh Eggman? what are you going to do with fancy jewelry anyways?"

"Well...I had this great ingenious experiment to combine this worlds magically properties with my genius brain," Eggman pointed his noggin at the hedgehog, "Too simply put it, I've using an alternative energy source for all of my inventions. These necklaces here contain enough power to do damage to the world!"

"The elements aren't weapons! they are used to maintain the peace and harmony into the world!" Twilight again with an aggressive tone of voice

"Oh yeah, that whole friendship this and friendship that! I call baloney!" Eggman clenched booth of his fist before smacking them on the keyboard, "These precious things are capable of doing more! I'm just using their true powers to their maximum potential!

"But, the elements of harmony are key to the friendship of magic! They are not supposed to be on your filthy hands, Egghead!" Sonic pointed at him, with an angry snare on his lips, "If you don't understand that! then we'll make you

Egg man simple made little giggle noise, "Well then, if you aren't giving me your crown, then I'll guess I have to take this blue horse with me!"

With a push of a button, Eggman's mech suddenly stretched outward won the ground, preparing for a super jump. Sonic tried to home attack at dashes claw, but he was interrupted by another claw pushing him back in the air and landed face down. Knuckles was the second one to attack, but he was held back by another claw. It was too late, as the spider mech bounced high in the sky, where the Egg carrier was hovering in the mid-air.

"Rainbow Dash!" Flutter shy cried out loud for her friend "Twilight do something!"

With that Twilight flew upwards trying to keep in speed with the mechanically beast, she was to slow to chase him. Eggman himself has managed to capture Rainbow Dash and escape with her inside his spider-mech. The Doctor clung on a small opening in his carrier ship, where she simply entered the enclosed space.

"We have to get her back!" Twilight cried out loud, "I'm coming in!"

With her attempting to enter the Egg carrier, Silver uses his levitation to host himself right next to the princess, "Bad idea! Eggman's ship is the most complex labyrinth. Even if you've managed to break in, his security robots are very tough,"

"But I can't leave my friend behind!" Twilight dashed right in front of him, "AND he has my friend's necklaces! WE NEED TO GET THEM BACK AND SAVE DASHIE!"

"That would be suicide for you!" Silver stopped her mid-air, "We need to regroup and head back to your castle!"

she was on the verge of refusing his suggestion, but she gave into it as she saw Eggman's terrifying looking ship, "Fine,"

The two graciously descended downwards to ground level, where most of the twilight's friends were putting on sad faces for their kidnapped friend, while Sonic and his gang were shut silent, looking very anxious at them. It went on for a couple of seconds as most of the robots were flying upwards to the ship and began to fade in thin air. With some of the structures either destroyed or damaged, a lone black hedgehog skated in the distance straight towards the large group. He stopped when he saw most of them still in utter silence

Shadow, putting on a stern face at Sonic, "Sorry I didn't make it in time. I had a large encounter with someone,"

Knuckles was the first one in their group to break the silence as he turned his face towards Shadow, "Well...Eggman came right at us with a new machine. He asked Twilight to surrender her crown or face a devious consequence, after she refused to do so, well..."

"He took Rainbow Dash with him!" the princess finished the echidna's sentence, "What are we going to do?"

"We'll just have to go back to the castle and plan our strategy!" Sonic answered her straight out, pointing towards her friends, "You five make sure to inform everypony that the attack is over now, after that, meet us at the castle. We'll catch up Tails on the whole attack,"

"You betcha we will!" Aj confirmed for all of her friends before running off towards the village folk.

The rest of the gang were all getting things ready, looking around for any stray robots. It only took SOnic a quick second before Silver came up to Shadow with a question, "Um Shadow? what was keeping you busy during our encounter with Eggman?"

"I don't know how to explain it," a vague answer was given out by Shadow, "She looked like she was working with Eggman,"

"Whoever you saw, we better get to the bottom of this!" Sonic clenched both his hands, "Why did Eggman ever target Equestria?"
