This one's a shortie, not even 1000 words lol, but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless! Because the next chapter is... Going to be insanely long... Enjoy!
Eggman's evil cackle filled the large room as a compartment in the robot insect's head opened up, revealing the mad doctor. Sonic and (Y/N) stood in front of the other Mobians, both taking defensive stances as Eggman gazed down at them, an evil smile spreading under his moustache.
"Like my new toy?" He asked sarcastically.
The (a/t) and hedgehog glanced at each other, then back to the robot. It was large, just fitting into The Holding Zone. Its armour was a bright green, shining in the harsh light as it slowly swayed in place, it's mandibles twitching under its beak, and forelegs curved and ready to strike. Eggman's compartment was in the middle of the large triangular head, tilted down towards them as it scanned the Mobians in front of it.
The two heroes had seen this robot before, in the blueprints they had gone through while preparing for this rescue mission. They had studied it for quite a while, preparing for this battle, and knew exactly how it worked and where its weak points were. This battle was going to be a breeze.
"Looks just like your other ones." Sonic gave a sly smirk, "Nothing new or impressive really."
The robot tilted it's head at that and leant down to face him, revealing the four eyes that flanked the compartment. The robotic pincers snapped together beneath it's beak in a challenge. Sonic chuckled, losing his defensive stance and taking on a more relaxed pose, a hand on his hip,
"Really, is this all you got?"
Eggman growled, straightening the robot to glower down at them,
"You thought you'd go unnoticed, sneaking into my base a second time? I have the upper hand you know, I always do! That alarm system was just the cue for me to come out, you have no idea what I have planned!"
The hedgehog rolled his eyes, "Sure we don't."
He then turned to the (a/t), who was still watching the robot, hands clenched into fists and ready to fight. She glanced at him for a moment, tilting her head.
"What?"
"You should get your family out of here. I'll take on the insect."
(Y/N) blinked, before shaking her head in response, "I'm not leaving you to fight alone. Here."
She turned back to her fathers, taking her earpiece out and handing it to one of them. The brown dog stepped forward and hesitated for a moment, searching his daughter's face, before he took it, a look of seriousness and understanding in his eyes. He nodded towards the (a/t), placing the earpiece into his ear, and turning to the others,
"Tails will lead you out." (Y/N) said, turning to Sonic.
"Tails? Alright." The older Mobian nodded, before turning to the others, "Let's go. And (Y/N)?"
She looked up at him, and he gave her a smile,
"Good luck."
"I've saved the world before. I don't need luck." She smiled back, and her father chuckled, before going silent for a moment, motioning for his partner to follow. The white cat nodded and picked up the child, the two taking off without another thought. The robot jerked to this, turning onto the running Mobians.
A loud, screeching noise erupted from the robot as it lashed out it's forelegs, striking at (Y/N)'s family. The (a/t) reacted, shooting her grappling hook at the large insect and catching it's curved limbs, pulling back and stopping it from hitting the others. The three Mobians looked up, a moment of fear clearly in her parent's eyes, before they took off running again.
The (a/t) held onto the robot as it struggled to escape, pulling, and pushing on the cable wrapped around its limbs. (Y/N) grunted as the robot fought back, the grapple coming loose as the robot hurried towards her family. She growled and shot at the bot again, the hook catching onto one of its hind legs, and pulled. The robot was sent crashing to the ground, allowing the (a/t)'s family to escape out of the large room and down the hallway.
"Hey Eggman!" She shouted, "We're over here!"
Sonic chuckled at her, giving her a thumbs up, the (a/t) gave a small chuckle in response.
"This is going to be easy." Sonic said as the mantis righted itself, "We know all your tricks Eggman, you should just give up."
"Oh really?" Eggman's voice came from the top of the robot as it spun towards them, his evil smile clear, "All my tricks?"
The robot jerked, stumbling forward for a moment, then slumping. The two heroes shared a confused glance, before something they weren't expecting to happen, happened. The robot started to change right before their very eyes.
