The Ultimate Weapon

Eric, having a kind heart, decided to help out around the town. Some of them asked for… lewd shenanigans in which he hit the road. He helped out Rarity with fabric, Pinkie with party supplies, and Rainbow Dash with sweeping the clouds (y’know, cause f**k logic.). The next person to help out was the timid, shy Fluttershy. He was heading up to her place when all of a sudden, he heard a branch snap. Thinking nothing of it, he knocked on her door. The door opened slightly to reveal a blue eye peeking at him. He waved as he walked inside and began helping her out. Making small talk, they heard a rustle in the bushes.

“W-what was that?” Fluttershy said as she took cover behind him. He peered closer into the bushes, to see red eyes and the sound of something unnaturally moving. He squinted his eyes and picked up Fluttershy and jumped out of the way as a figure came and tried to claw them both. Eric inspected the thing and it and it was clear the thing was mostly built out of blue metal. It had a yellow circular depression in his chest with a black center. It’s head had metal fins resembling a certain hedgehog’s quills and a pair of triangular "ears." The thing had a muzzle, shoulder plates, upper arms, legs, and fingers made out of silvery metal. It’s palms are black, while the backs of the hands are square yellow plates. It’s forearms and lower legs are blue metal like his head and torso, and it had red feet with white stripes designed to resemble Sonic's shoes. It had optic sensors with black sclera and red irises.

“W-what is that?!” Fluttershy screamed.

“METAL SONIC!? HOW DID THAT THING GET HERE?!” As if on cue, its head turned around eerily fast and his body spinned in the direction Eric was in without moving his head and boosted towards him.

“Go tell the others about this thing. I’ll hold it off, hurry!” he yelled as she flew off.

“So Metal, is eggman here or you are the only thing I have to worry about?” Eric got in a fighting position.

“DR IVO ROBOTNIK IS NOT PRESENT. ERIC, I WILL BATTLE YOU AS MANY TIMES AS NECESSARY.” Metal Sonic said as Eric ran at high speeds. Metal followed behind as he then started to overload his circuitry, causing blue sparks to emit from his body. Metal Sonic then forms an energy field around his body and then shoots himself forward at four times his original acceleration. Quickly thinking, Eric jumped over metal and punched him in the face. Metal seems dazed until a rainbow blur striked metal down.

“RD! If you're helping, then listen to me! That thing is as fast as me and it can kill you without hesitation! So be careful!” Eric shouted as she gave a cocky smirk.

“Hah! This hunk of metal? Don’t worry, I can handle mysel—” Metal punches Rainbow off of him as Eric went to catch her. Once she landed in his arms, he snapped his fingers at her to get her out of her daze.

“RD, you got what others would say: your shit pushed in.” he said as she frowned and flew out of his arms.

“Buck this I’m out!” She then flew off. Metal just stares awkwardly as Eric gave an unamused expression.

“Wanna continue fighting or…” Eric twirls his hand

(Inside Metal’s hardware…)

Continue from an awkward moment?

Yes No

Run apologize.exe?

Yes No

(back to the fight)

“I DID NOT KNOW WHAT JUST HAPPENED, BUT BEFORE YOUR DEMISE, I APOLOGIZE.” Metal Sonic said before revving up his rocket and flew at Eric. Surprisingly, he ran at Metal Sonic with full force while trying to push one another back. Both opponents stared daggers at one another. Just then, the mane six and Gilda arrived to see the scene of smoke and dirt getting kicked up.

“You might know everything that I'm going to do, but that's not going to help you, since I know everything you're going to do. Strange, isn't it?!” Eric said while he grunted and then punched Metal in the face, sending him flying back as Gilda kicked Metal in the air as Metal Sonic recomposed himself. Both Gilda and Eric flew in the air.

“So, what’s up with this hunk of metal?” Gilda said as she blocked an incoming punch by Metal Sonic.

“That thing is Metal Sonic.” he just says before flying back at him.

Eric then tries to elbow Metal, only for Metal Sonic to cross his arms and bend his legs slightly upward while hovering in the air, where he forms an octahedral energy shield with black outlines around him. While it is up, the Black Shield rotates around him at high speed while his own body glows in a multitude of white, blue and purple colors. Eric flew back, only for Twilight to shoot a magic blast at Metal Sonic, but it dissipates when it hit his shield. He then cuts off his shield and looks at Twilight with those red eyes. He boosted his way to Twilight and grabbed her throat, choking her. Applejack and Rainbow Dash tried to step in, only to be backhanded or scratched by him. Pinkie shot her party cannon at the badnik, but to no avail.

“METAL!” He turns around, still grasping Twilight's neck as she claws at him. “EAT THIS YOU METAL FAKER!” Eric snaps his fingers as ten chaos spears surrounded him. He didn’t have time to react, as Eric punches his eye, causing him to drop Twilight in response. Eric then brings his hand up and then down, sending spears collapsing on Metal Sonic as smoke surrounded to where he was. Metal emerged from the smoke and clawed at Eric, causing Eric to step back in pain as he dropped something: The seven chaos emeralds. Metal then absorbs them as he was surrounded by yellow electricity and his eyes changed to yellow. As Gilda came to attack, Metal smacked her to a tree. She was unconscious and very beaten up. Eric’s eyes shrunk to pinpricks as he then punched the ground and walked over to her.

“No...NO! NO! DAMN YOU HUNK OF USELESS GARBAGE!” His third eye opened and his eyes were blue. Suddenly, the chaos emeralds were yanked out of Metals body. Somehow, he was still in his super form. They surround Eric as he then floated into the air. They were absorbed by him to reveal Eric with a blue horn with his third eye glowing black, his arms were laced with the nocturnus clan’s symbols on them as his “boots” are now black and red and had two spikes in front of his boots.

“Metal… it’s time to be wiped from the face of this planet once and for all… so say your prayers to whatever god you prayed upon, because I. WILL.KILL.YOU!” He roared as they both charged at each other. Eric’s punches were now distorting space around him and making frictions with the hydrogen in the air. Metal was in the lead first, until the enraged Gizoid ripped off his arm, put five dents in his head, and ripped his other hand off. Eric then grabbed Metal’s head and rips it off, throwing the now dead fake onto the ground. He then looked at Gilda and the mane six. Gilda was frightened and confused. He smiles as the Chaos emeralds floated out of his body and right around Gilda’s body.

“You are a worthy one… t-they chose you…” Eric then passes out.

Then, the princesses came. Twilight basically explains how metal came out of nowhere and attacked Fluttershy and Eric. Luna picks up it’s head, only for the red irises to lock eyes with her. In response, she threw metal’s head and body parts into the forest.
