Journal of an Ultimate Lifeform: Chapter 3 ~ Vengeance Awakened
#3 of Journal of an Ultimate Lifeform
Here's where the story will follow Sonic Adventure 2, obviously.
Shadow the Hedgehog and the others are owned by Service Games (SEGA).
I apologize for not writing for so long. When you're asleep for 50 years, your free time is rather limited. Ahem. Right now, I'm back on the ARK, sitting near the Professor's doom bringer: the Eclipse Cannon. The Doctor should be arriving soon. Wait, I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me explain...
The Doctor I spoke of is Dr. Ivo Robotnik, Gerald's grandson. For some odd reason he's been called Eggman. A fitting moniker, I suppose, but still. Anyway, he's the one who broke into Prison Island and released me. At first he thought I was someone called "Sonic". When he saw that I wasn't, I introduced myself and offered to grant him a "wish", having a pretty good idea why he went to the trouble of releasing me.
Unfortunately, the military chose that time to sic B-3x Hot Shot, one of their damn robots, on us. It was no match for my power, of course, and was disposed of easily. The Doctor was impressed and wanted to know more about my offer. I simply told him to get more Chaos Emeralds and meet me on the ARK.
After liberating the federal reserve bank of an Emerald, I was immediately hunted down by the police. They tried to intercept me on the Highway, but that didn't do them any good, since I was too fast for those guys. All the while, my thoughts kept returning to my lost Maria and the promise I made her. I'm certain it was one thing: revenge on the planet that killed her. I plan to carry it out. Mark my words: Earth shall suffer for what they did.
Here's where it gets interesting. I managed to escape those pathetic human fools and took a breather in downtown Station Square. I noticed a downed robot similar to the one that attacked me back on Prison Island and decided to check it out. I figured it was simply a faulty run. I took the time to gaze upon my prize and the power within. All I needed was five more...
Suddenly, I heard a voice form below. "Now I know what's going on!" I looked down to see who had the nerve to interrupt my thoughts and was shocked to see a hedgehog similar to me. He was blue, had green eyes and a different hairstyle and shoes, but other than that we were identical. "The military has mistaken me for the likes of you!" he continued. "So, where do you think you're going with that Emerald?" He then charged at me, shouting, "Say something, you fake hedgehog!" That remark pissed me off. Who did this guy think he was, trying to challenge me? AND, he called me a fake?! This cretin had no idea who he was dealing with and needed to be educated.
"Chaos....Control!" I concentrated my thoughts on the Emerald in my grasp. Within moments, I warped past the fool, who, amusingly, was clueless as to what just happened. When I landed, I introduced myself to him, thoroughly enjoying the dumb look on his face. Then, stating that I didn't have time to play with him, I warped myself out of that area. I hope those cops get him. I have a feeling he'll be a thorn in my side otherwise.
Hmph. I sense that Dr. Eggman *snicker* took his sweet time getting here. I'd better prepare for his arrival.
