Station Square: Day at the Museum.

[AnT]

The Station Square Museum, at facility that is half the size of the MET in the 'late' New York City. For those who enjoy the ancient evidence of historic culture, many aged items are placed in display here. But like all museums, no photography on the displays.

Of course, there are those who would take low measures to take personal imagery of these displays.

In the classy museum cafe, a young Mobian squirrel sat alone on a table, enjoying a club sandwich and drink while the many people went about their business in the background. Around her food were green holographic computer images; the kind you see in a sci-fi movie. She lazily scrolled her gloved hand on the holograms; even a touch on these solid-less images can she move them or change a image.

"Nicole, do you have any other perspective imagery on the tablet?"

"Negative, Sally." A computer voice said, with the girl's voice, only drone.

"Additional data from the web?"

"Negative, Sally."

The Mobian sighed before sipping her soda. Being a fan of archeology, Sally Acorn was so interested in the new find that was discovered in the Mystic Ruins. This tablet was said to link to an ancient culture that once lived in the ruins. It was also said that it told of the mythological god of destruction, but since this display was new, the data was brief. Her computer can't view the hieroglyphic on the images, for the pictures were taken too far away.

She was so anxious, she was tempted on sneaking pictures of the site. But...she refused to stoop so low. She works for the law, for Pete's sake.

"Did you find her?" A man wearing a suit ask another as they met at the cafe's entrance.

"No sign! Man, how can the Queen do this again?"

"You know how see hates being called that, and she ain't a real one either!"

"Yeah, but she deserves to be one. Anyway, she might of got into the city!" The two men nodded and ran down the hall, and once they were gone, a female wearing a pink-green hood came out from a pillar.


"Those boys never learn, do they?" The woman giggled as she went into the cafe, "I think I'll get a bite to eat."

[AnT]

Staring at the holographic picture of the tablet, Sally yearned to learn what the tablet says. She just need a better picture of it. The only way to do that-

"Incoming android reading from higher levels; the roof,"

Sally hiccuped her drink. "*koff, koff*...What???"



From the skies, robotic gunners descended down on the large roof. These robotic beings had a egg-shaped design, with long legs, and blasters designed on their right arms.

[Alien-Child]

"Hi, can I have a-"

"AHHH!" The girl at the counter screamed as she ducked behind the counter.


"Um..." The woman blinked, and she looked behind herself and saw the robots, "Oh! Well, i guess that's something to be afraid of! If my guards hear about this, they're never leave out of their sight!"

[AnT]

In such a clashing entrance, the Egg-Robos jumped through the sun-roof window; glass raining on the cafe.

Just like the people, Sally dived under the table, protected from the sharp glass pieces that fell on the table.

The robotic gunners hovered over the cafe with their jetpacks, keeping their blasters aimed at the frightened people.

[Alien-Child]

As did the mysterious woman as she tucked her head under her foot to sheild from the fallen glass. When she took it off her eyes, she saw the robots aim at people. 'Oh no, this isn't good at all!' She sweeted as she looked at the people's frightened faces, 'I really don't want to get so much attention, and I'm not a fighter...but is it all worth it just to get people hurt?' The woman sighed as she slowly stand up and got a sword out of her cloak, "Sometimes doing the right thing, is hard!"

[AnT]

"Now now, my dear; no need for empty heroics."

A small floating pod lowered down from the sun-roof. A tiny ship the shape of a bowl with engines on the side, and a single head light carried a bald man with a large bushy mustache, and goggles. He also wore a red suit with two buckles around his chest, and a thick zipper-line. He had quite a large set of teeth shown in his evil smile.

"I speak for your sake that you stand down. I am correct that you don't want the injures of these people happen because of your foolish hand?"

Gun clicks were heard from the robots, who were settling their weapons at the ready. Just one pull of their inner-triggers can their gun blast the heads of the helpless citizens.


"Eggman!" Sally whispered, peaking out of her hiding place. With all these numbers, there was little she can do. She hoped that woman will settle down; she'll put these people at jeopardy.

[Alien-Child]

The woman made some growls in anger as she puts her weapon away. 'It's him, I should have known!' "Doctor Robotnik I presume? I never knew you'd come here."

[AnT]

Eggman cringed a little. How could this wrench know of his real name? Seriously, that surname is pretty much his 'secret-identity, used to run his business, Robotnik Corporation. The man needs money for his machines. Dammit, I forgot to put that down in the app!

"I do not know WHY you compare me to the man who owns Robotnik Corp. I am simply Dr. Eggman; that is all you need to know."

The egg-shaped man flown his pod over the stunned crowd. "I only come for...a little pick-up. Please remain where you are, and I shall leave soon with no harm come to you. You have my word as a gentleman."

With that, Eggman flown his Eggmobile out of the cafe.


Meanwhile, Sally was able to sneak out from the threatening Egg-Robos, ducking under the tables, until she reached inside the restrooms. She took out her 'cell-phone' which happens to be her super computer, NICOLE. A small green holographic screen appeared before her.

"Sally Acorn here! Dr. Eggman has been sited at the Station Square museum! He has a number of robotic units, taking hostages! Get some people over here!!"

"Uh...Dr. Eggman?? Are you crazy, Sally? He-"

The squirrel glowered.

"I'm kidding!"

[Alien-Child]

And the woman slapped her face. 'How could I be so stupid? Sure I'm against the Robotnik Corporation, but that doesn't mean I can accuse the man to be the world's number one threat! But this, this is just worse!' The woman looked around the cafe and was able to see the door to a restroom flap open and closing until it made to a stop. 'Hmm...'looks like somebody made an escape...dang, what is that egg doing?!'

[AnT]

Within the walls of the museum, Sally Acorn traveled through the air-shafts. With the Egg-Robos storming around the museum, she had to follow the egg as stealthy as she can.

"Nicole, open file: 'museum-maze'. Bring up Eggman-machinery signatures on display."

"Accessing!"

The holographic map appeared before her, always in front of her even while she's crawling. She saw numerous dots around the lobby and cafe on the map. But on reading, shaped like Eggman's head, was going up the stairs, alone.

"Where is he going...alone?"

[Alien-Child]

Sally wasn't the only one trailing the egg, the woman manged to ripped part of her cloak and wrapped it around a chair. Hopefully it might fool the robots, as the woman (still wearing a hood and the top half of the cloak) sidle down a hall through the shadows and out of the cafe. "Ok....I got out there, time to get the egg!' She exclaimed as she dashed down the hall.

[AnT]

In a room, next to many rooms, filled with portraits, and historic displays, Dr. Eggman made a bee-line for his EggMobile for one specific display in the middle of the room...a stone tablet.

"Ah...yes, the only clue there is that will lead me to the world's most terrifying destruction ever." Landing his pod next to the display, Eggman simply grabbed the tablet.


Terrifying destruction?

Sally was right above Eggman in the air shafts on the ceilings. With Eggman all alone, now would be a opportunity to strike. But who knows what surprises he has in that pod, and he could very well call in his Egg-Robos. No, she had to find a way to stop the mad doctor, and make sure his robots don't show up.

But wait...shouldn't the alarm go off once Eggman...? "Nicole? What happened to the alarm system?"

"Checking security systems....the systems are deactivated."

"Eggman shut them down! Can you hack into the security systems and reactivate them, around this room?"

"One moment..."

[Alien-Child]

"Made it!" The woman gasped as she was at the entrance of the room watching Eggman grabbing the tablet. 'I don't know what he wants with that, but I can't let him have it!' And as silently as she tried to be, the woman grabbed out her blade and entered the room...

[AnT]

"Systems operational. Controls linked to main server."

"NOW!!!"

"What the-"

As alarm sirens blazed loud, metal doors slammed in the entrances. Every entrance in the room was sealed shut, trapping both Eggman and the woman inside.

"What is this?" Spotting the purple hedgehog, Eggman gritted his teeth as his Eggmobile hovered off the floor. "Did you do this??"


"Oh my gosh!!!" Sally gasped, looking through the caged seal of the air vent. "There's a civilian in there!!!"
