[dice=5] Knuckles then remembered that Metallix's ability; copy people's abilities. This, and that he's a Sonic robot, is why he REALLY hates this guy. So, with his great might, Knuckles caught Metal's fist, though shoved back a bit. And then he reeled back his own. "AMATEUR!!!" [dice=8] Meanwhile, climbing on the alter from behind, Sally faced the emerald. Before she left Rotor's lab, she took a little something she thought could help in this situation. Too bad she didn't tell Rotor what she took, but she'll apologize later. What she pulled out of her pockets looked something like one of those plastic bubbles, with a prize, you get from those vending machines.

[dice=9] Metal saw the incoming fist, and grabbed it with his own hand, as Knuckles shot it at him. " You were saying?" Metal mocked in a tone reminiscent of Sonic's, just to make Knuckles even more angry and unfocused. Then, he reeled his head backwards, attempting to headbutt Knuckles.

[dice=5] "GRCK!!!" A skull made of steel to the organic skull? You can bet Knuckles will be seeing stars for a bit, as he staggered back. Meanwhile, Sally carefully placed that bubble device under the emerald. She then pulled out another one from her pocket and proceeded to move to the other corner...until her eyes caught the Goliath brushing through the night clouds... "......oh boy..." [rand=14633136029719807610925081904548917118747061637149343970127844196]

Metal saw Knuckles stagger, and immediately started charging his torso's laser. " Threat... Elimina-" "Hey, Metal!" Espio suddenly shouted, catching Metal's attention. "Remember me?" he said, as he threw three shurikens at Metal. [dice=4][dice=4][dice=4] [dice=9][dice=9][dice=9] Metal easily knocked two of them away, but one of them lodged itself into his torso, cancelling his laser attack. " Searching memory..." Metal muttered, as he glanced at Espio. " Memory recalled. Subject: Espio the Chameleon. Label: Minor threat. New objective: Destroy Espio." Metal buzzed, as he pulled the shuriken out of his torso. He had two enemies against him, but only one of them were a major threat, that being Knuckles. "you won't mind if I assist you, Knuckles?" Espio asked, as he pulled six shuriken from out of nowhere, three in each hand. "Because I'm sure that he doesn't."[rand=76666023247396899426655857801867163828571337925226928654829623548]

Rubbing his head, he shook it. "Will it kick this trash heap off my island? No complaints if it will!" Knuckles launched off, his heel leaving an imprint on the ground. Charging like an angry bull, the echidna came at Metal, throwing not one but two destructive fists. [dice=8][dice=8] While Sally set a second bubble device, she looked up at the mighty battle ship. That thing could make a skyscraper look like a toy model; it was so huge. And it seems it was merely about to hover over the alter island. Strange how Eggman only sent Metal Sonic...and yet it wasn't. Obviously that doctor sent him to distract Knuckles while Eggman moves in on the emerald. Well not while she has to say anything about it. With the device she's planting, it'll buy them some time. But alas, she fears they're only delaying the inevitable.[rand=5426601321506016191311291619514773505752267465591717205271141289236]

[dice=9][dice=9] Metal took both fists head-on, which made him fly several feet away from Knuckles. However, he managed to get back on his feet before he crashed into the ground. "Now!" Quickly, Espio threw all the shurikens he was holding at Metal, hoping that the metallic hedgehog wouldn't dodge more than half of them. [dice=4][dice=4][dice=4][dice=4][dice=4][dice=4] [dice=9][dice=9][dice=9][dice=9][dice=9][dice=9] Sadly, this was the case. Metal effortlessly grabbed every single shuriken, now holding three of them in each hand. " Move: Unwise." Metal said, mocking Espio's attack. Then, he proceeded to throw three shurikens at Knuckles, and the other three at Espio. [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] (Espio) [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] (Knuckles) [dice=7][dice=7][dice=7] Espio rolled away from two of the shuriken, and grabbed the final one just a few inches before it made contact with him. "He's learned a few tricks since last time." Espio said, as he threw the shuriken away.[rand=0291527708752898356467820474856947852842745658005727166361963628305]

[dice=5][dice=5][dice=5] Whilst Knuckles bat the sharp objects with his fists. "Yeah! Ours!" Growling, Knuckles' fist bathed in green energy. "KI-YAAA!!!" With that energized fist, Knuckles punched the floating earth; green waves washed around the tiny island. While Sally set up the third device, she was at awe when she saw floating, magical gold rings sprouting out of the ground. "You...can open zones?" Zones are areas around 'leaks' that lead to the Special Zone; which by the way, the 'leaks' can't be entered by anyone for its small. The raw Chaos Energy that makes up that realm alters the land it touches. It was why the planet Earth was renamed Mobius all those centuries ago; because of the strange geographic structures, like the Loopy-rocks, or the Mobius-strip paths. And thanks to the Star Posts, planted by the late Nate Morgan and his collages, the raw Chaos Energy leaked out of these rifts mostly is converted into Magic Rings. With magic rings, people can't get seriously injured from most hazards, but the rings only work with certain people. What qualifies them, no one knows. Only very few people can rip a rift, and those have to be skilled with Chaos Energy. Knuckles is one of those few. Frowning as he picked up a ring, Knuckles turned back to Sally. "Yeah, what's it to-HEY!!! WHAT DO THINK YOU'RE DOING??!" He KNEW he shouldn't have trusted her. "Relax!" Sally said, setting up the last device. "I'm just buying you some-" Suddenly, as the giant ship hovered high over the alter island, two Egg-Robos dropped from its belly, heading for the island. "Uh oh..." Good thing she was done, for she can fence off these robots. [rand=864634794705384649285192612695262712348943865665639769328937011283]

"Those again?" Espio mused, holding three shurikens in his right hand. "I'll handle those in an-" Metal suddenly appeared right next to Espio, aiming a punch straight for Espio's abodmen. [dice=6] [dice=7] Espio had no time to dodge, as the punch sent him flying right next to Sally, leaving only Knuckles to fend off Metal. "Gnh... I got careless." Espio shook his head, and stood up next to Sally. "Sorry, Knuckles, but I guess I'm not of much help to you against Metal. You take care of him, and we'll take care of the Egg-Robos!" [rand=8238870889898004763830237095859264108168762338678112672222578308]

Knuckles concentrated on Metal, throwing a few practice punches. As he slowly threw another punch..."More for me, then!" He blasted at Metal, his fist flying at him, surrounded in blue flames. [dice=8] Sally blinked her wide eyes at Espio, stunned, if not frightened, that Metal punched the lizard all the way ON the alter she was on. But now wasn't the time to be intimidated. She has some robots to thwart off. "Come on!" She dived her palms on the stairs, landing with them and done some gymnastic flips down the stairs. Once she landed on the bottom, Sally somersaulted into the air before she made an Egg-Robo her target for her feet to stomp on. [dice=5] [dice=5] The Egg-Robo was treated as her landing pad, but her feet hardly made a dent on its armor, but only made it stagger forward a little when Sally jumped off of it. A few moments before this, while Sally showed off her gymnastic flips, the Egg-Robo fired a laser shot at Espio. [dice=4][rand=82369724142310130379329445162156590911705530678646930369186211278]

[dice=9] Metal quickly noticed Knuckles approaching him, but only had time to put up his right arm to protect himself. However, once the fist made contact with his arm, it literally flew off him, leaving him with only one arm. However, he remained undeterred, and dug his left hand into the ground, before activating his rocket engine, dashing towards Knuckles, threatening to both tackle him and throw an uppercut with his arm, which was also dragging along massive amounts of rock. [dice=6] (Tackle) [dice=6] (Uppercut) [dice=7] Espio quickly turned left, which made the incoming shot narrowly pass by him. However, instead of turning to face the Egg-Robo, he started spinning around, until he only became a blur. Then, two small tornados appeared next to him, one flying at the Egg-Robo that had fired at him, and the other at the second Egg-Robo.

[dice=5][dice=5] Running back, Knuckles swayed away from the incoming Metallix, avoiding his following uppercut. [dice=5][dice=5] The Egg-Robos never stood a chance as the ninja wind ripped their bodies to pieces. The tornadoes swung their body pieces around and around. Gawking at the boys' amazing capabilities, Sally felt a little envious. It's a shame she doesn't have any special abilities to turn the tie against these robots. But even though she doesn't have any super powers, she's satisfied with her own skills. Once again, more Egg-Robos fell from the giant ship, above. This time, three of them. Well, time to show them her true power. "Nicole, can you override one of their CPUs and link one of them to your control systems?" "Accessing, Sally." Holographic windows appeared before her, showing numerous data on the Egg-Robos. [dice=6] [dice=5] Stopping in the air, one of the Egg-Robos twitched; sparks flying out of its limbs. The robot floated there, its arms and head hanging down. "CPU control successful, Sally." "Yes!!" A green hologram of a keyboard appeared below her chest. Sliding it a little away from her, Sally began typing on it while looking at the windows. Just a few little programming there, and learning its systems there, and Sally will be, shall we say, 'playing a video game'. Meanwhile, the other two Robos stayed in the air while shooting at the lizard from above. [dice=4][dice=4] While Knuckles, again charged his fist at Metal like a blue fireball, following with a flaming uppercut. (Charge Punch) [dice=8] (Uppercut) [dice=8][rand=97021084011767136819340487165306364962374991443821570047312640017]

[dice=9][dice=9] Metal quickly sidestepped the charge punch, and grabbed Knuckles hand in the middle of the uppercut, slowly crushing it. " Fly away." Metal said coldly, as fire amassed around his free hand, which flew straight at the echidna. [dice=6] [dice=7][dice=7] One of the shots struck Espio's left hand, but he quickly disappeared from sight, as the other shot struck the ground he previously stood on, hitting nothing. Then, from out of nowhere, two kunai flew straight at the Egg-Robos that had been shooting at Espio. [dice=4][dice=4][rand=894075657472537471478218089572551207828673234115949439582333827026]

[dice=5] "GRCK!!!" Indeed he flew, flew right against the alter; rings scattered out of his body. Good thing he had them, otherwise, his face would've been burnt off. But that still knocked some senses off of him, which he slowly tried to shake it off the wooziness. "owww..." [dice=5][dice=5] One Egg-Robo descended down, kunai shooting over its head when it did. But the second just stabbed right through the second Robo's face. Down it dropped, like a fly. And the third Robo...was heading for...the giant ship. Smirking, Sally watched that robot fly back to the ship while controlling it with a hologram joystick with one hand, and the other hand pressing buttons on a small holographic remote. She could use that robot to help battle the incoming Egg-Robos, or Metal...but its pointless fighting against an unlimited number of them, and the Egg-Robos are too weak for Metal. So... "That's weird..." on the bridge, Dr. Eggman was on his captain's chair. On a large monitor above the control consoles his robots were on, Eggman watched the lone Egg-Robo retreating back to the ship, being ignored by five more Egg-Robos. "Computer, diagnostic report on Egg-Robo 45-3!" ".....CPU systems overridden.""WHAT??" He roared, slamming his fists on the chair arms. "Computer, trace the-Huh?" Now he watched that robot walking on the hanger doors, approaching some circuit boxes on the walls, inside. The robot logged on to the systems of the box, closing the door shut. "NO!!!" A booming sound was heard inside the hanger. "Computer! Open the belly hanger!!" "Link systems disconnected. Unable to log to lower hatch systems.""AAAAGH!!!!" Again he hammered the arm chairs, enough to shudder the room and spook the robots off their seats. Without the belly hanger, he can't send anymore robots down there. It'll take too much time to make them walk ALL THE WAY upstairs, just to mount off the deck. Who ever did this will pay! The window screen showed nothing but static. Makes sense since Sally activated the robot's self-destruct sequence to jam the belly hanger. "That should slow them down." But five more Egg-Robos were heading their way. [rand=36320837247604643918030452338756623440305656648539739291003962676]

Metal suddenly slowly turned his gaze towards Sally. " Threat detected. Eliminate threat." Then, he suddenly dashed towards Sally, ready to throw a punch at her while she was occupied, when... [dice=6] [dice=7] Espio quickly reappeared in front of Metal, taking the punch that was meant for Sally head on, which flung him right on the altar again, next to Knuckles. Coughing blood, Espio slowly stood up, but ended up collapsing on his knees. "Crap... my body's at it's limits." he mused, as he got up again, legs shaking due to the damage he had sustained. " Espio's damage... critical." Metal mused, before looking at the five Egg-Robos approaching them. " Direct fire at the chameleon." Then, he looked back at Sally, and reeled his hand backwards, again aiming to punch the squirrel. [dice=6][rand=53998576580011895668580035364772145442495564326657693173217396364]

[dice=6] Dealing with a robot that performs MASSIVE speed, Sally couldn't see the fist coming. It felt like the wind swung a punch at her, making her tumble FAR across the field. Rings scattered away from her body. Good thing the rings cushioned the blow as she pushed herself up, but that was still a nasty blow. "Owww..." "No! Two of you, deal with the chameleon!" Eggman's voice was heard in the robots, including Metal. "The rest of you destroy the emerald! Metal! Make that little girl pay!" As she climbed to her feet, she noticed the robots heading towards the alter; two of them set their sights on Espio. Sally wouldn't be able to help him in time. "Espio!! Hurry! Get some rings!!" Sally warned, stating the rings floating around the field. Knuckles didn't bring them out for nothing. Speaking of whom, Knuckles was gone. The said flying robots, targeting Espio, fired. [dice=4][dice=4] Meanwhile, the other three robots fired at the emerald. "Nicole!! Now!!" A strange 'WOMM' sound was heard as a large blue dome surrounded the giant emerald. The lasers crashed into it. Sally's Blue Shield generators should stall for time. But sadly, she's mostly alone, especially against Metal Sonic. "AAAGH!!!!" Eggman hammered and hammered the poor chair's arm, making the robots panic around the room. That squirrel was starting to become as infuriating as the hedgehog. But it seems she lacks physical fisticuffs, so she'll be easily dealt with by Metal. Oh, and his hand was now bruised. "Owww..." [rand=292850894204201205753270236696839004215869922119425261413337713722]
