Chapter 2: Toxic

Act 1: All Along The Chemical Plant

Sonic and Tails leave the Tornado-Alpha a mile away from a huge chemical plant. Tails takes the GPS and wraps it around his wrist.

Tails: Stay here. I'll go scout out the area. Maybe I'll even find the next lab.

Sonic: Do I have to just wait? I'm ready to scrap some metal!

Tails: Just, let me defend you this time. I can warn you about everything that's there if you just trust me. If you-

Sonic: Alright! You can go on ahead. Just, don't keep me waiting.

Tails: I'll be right back!

Tails flies off as Sonic waits and taps his foot. He stays there for exactly 3 minutes.

Sonic: I'm Outta Here!

He dashes off towards the chemical plant and he runs all around it until he finds Tails at the edge of a platform, looking at the water below.

Sonic: Left me hangin' there, Tails.

Tails: Sonic! I think I've found it.

Sonic: You “Think” you have?

Tails: Well, I double-checked Bunnie's work and triangulated the exact X, Y coordinates-

Sonic: In English, Tails.

Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

Tails: Well, the Emerald should be under the water down there. Looks like the tide is riding high this season.

Sonic: So, how do we get to it?

Tails: We swim.

Sonic: You'd better get going, then.

Tails: But, I'll need your strength to open the lab up.

Sonic: Well, that's toooo bad. I ain't touching that stuff.

Tails: The water?

Sonic: The whole stinking ocean! You don't know what's hiding down in the deep.

Tails: Wait. Can you not swim?

Sonic: 'Course I can! I just don't want to.

Tails: Come to think of it, I've never seen you swim.

Sonic: Just, Get Going Already!

Tails: You know, it really is easy. You just have to find the air-bubbles.

Sonic taps his foot.

Sonic: I'm waaaiiitiiing.

Tails: I'm going!

Tails flies towards the water as Sonic looks around. Before long, a worker robot finds him and they look at each-other for a moment.

Robot: … Move.

Sonic gets out of the way and the robot picks up a metal crate that was behind him. Sonic then looks around to see dozens of robots that are minding their own business.

Sonic: Hm. Something fishy's gotta be happening. But, I can't attack them first. Heroes end fights, not start them.

After a moment of nervously waiting, Tails flies out of the water with the aquamarine Chaos Emerald in his hand. He then holds it up to the sky.

Tails: I Got It!

All of the robots look his way.

Robots: Target Acquired.
