Chapter 42 Doomsday Signs of Evil

The purple light from Doomsday filled the sky.  Dark purple clouds formed and rolled, expanding to the reaches of the planet.  All creatures looked up as light was suddenly shunned by the uneasy clouds.  As it all progressed, an occasional stream of light would come down and crash into the ground, turning a spot into metal.

"WHAhahahaha!!!" laughed Robotnik as he watched the progress of his work.  It will not be long till the whole world is engulfed in seeded clouds.  And then it will rain Doomsday emissions.  Is it not beautiful Sonic?"

Sonic banged on the glass with his fists, "You monster!!  You have no idea what will come of this!!"

"Oh I do!  Don't you remember?  My plans have never changed.  I will control every inch of this planet.  And every mobian will serve me as mechanical slaves."

Sonic could only watch at the horrors that where going on the screens.  But some how all this seemed familiar.  Like he has been threw this before.  It was like another life time that he had forgotten, but he could not remember it, and nor was the time to remember.  He kept on banging on the glass, trying to get out.  But it was all in vain.

"Boomer!" exclaimed Sally as they were moving threw some tight spaces.  "Do you have any idea where Tails could be!?"

While he was trying to get his belly unstuck from the wire supports, he responded, "I have no clue!!  With a machine like this, there is no telling!  The most advanced thing I built was the gate!!  How am I supposed to figure this thing out!?"

Then suddenly there was a huge gust of wind that started to cool the area down.  Boomer had an idea to follow where that wind was coming from.  He did not know why, but he thought it would help.  They waved threw many tubes and wire enclosures.  Soon they came to a huge fan that was blowing the air, and behind it was a tunnel.  "Wow!" exclaimed Boomer, "This must cool everything down to make sure it don't get too hot in here.  Look!!  There are a bunch more of them."  It was a cylindrical core tower that they could see high up from.  There where many fans that are on the hull.  Bridges and support beams connected it with the rest of the super structure.  "Let's look for a way in!!  Maybe Tails is inside."

As they started to walk around this core, they had to stay clear from pipe lines that released bursts of hot steam.  The roaring and humming of the machine kept on going, letting all know of it's power.  Then Boomer saw a tight opening into the core.  He looked in and saw that there were lots of wires in there, and there was a chamber in there too.  He turned over to Sally and said, "Wait here.  I will go first."

Boomer started to squeeze into the opening.  It was a very tight fit with all the wires there.  Then all of a sudden there was a strong bolt of electricity that started to electrocute him.  Boomer was frozen in place and could not move.  His body vibrated as the electricity went threw his muscles.

"Boomer!!" shouted Sally in fear.  She tried to pull him out of there, but she could not get close. Sparks sent her flying back.  Sally looked around for something that she could use to get him out of there.  But before she could find anything, Boomer was thrown out from the opening.  "Boomer!!  are you all right!!?"  Sally ran down to him and found that he was hot.  "Boomer!!! Say something!!"

He started to moan a bit and shake his head.  In a few moments he opened his eyes and looked up at her.  "Sally?  I don't know what happened...  But... I think I downloaded memories...  Rotor..."

"Downloaded?  Rotor?"  asked Sally, "What is all that supposed to mean?  Are you okay?"

"I will explain it all later,"  He then looked upward and pointed, "I am willing to bet that we need to get up on that bridge.  It should get us up into the power housing!  If that is true, we will be able to get to Tails."

***

Outside of Doomsday, nearly the whole planet has been shadowed with the purple clouds.  Some of the jungle has been ripped up from commits of light and transformed into metal.  A good amount of the desert has been hit and changed into a spotty metal field.

Sonic has worn himself out from banging on the glass.  It was no use, he could not get out.  He had slumped down to the platform as he was breathing heavily.  Then Robotnik laughed manically with excitement.  "It's almost there!!  Almost there!!"  Then there were several screens beeping as they switched from blue to green.  "YES!!!  The whole planet is now targeted with seeded clouds!!  All systems!!  FULL POWER!!!"  He dashed over  to a control panel and started to push leavers up.  One by one, as he pushed the leavers, needles on odometers started to go up and the walls began to vibrate.

Then a computer said, "Doomsday will commence in T minus 5 minutes.  All systems are now working at 100% power.  Engine chambers are now at 92F and rising.  Cooling systems are reaching max."

Extordanary power fed the Doomsday beam, causing the atmosphere light up purple.  It looked as if the energy was inflating the clouds, and will soon get big enough to explode.

***

Both Boomer and Sally made it to the top of the lower power housing.  They both wiped the sweat from there heads because it was getting hot in here.  The area was filled with large metal orbs that were connected with pipes.  As they came closer to the center, they could hear screaming.  They finally got up to where they saw a bright green light coming from a machine.  "There it is!!" exclaimed Boomer, "Tails is down there!!"

Sally dashed to the machine and forced her way up to it so she could glance down the tube.  And she saw Tails down there.  "I see him!!  I'm going to try to reach him!"

"No Sally!!" exclaimed Boomer.  "You will get hurt!!  Ermmm..."  He looked around the area and started to think.  He then had an idea, "Sally!  Take one of those ladders and get down there.  Once you get to the bottom floor, the door will be open.  I will disrupt the magnet so you can catch Tails when he comes down.  Then you will need to get out of here on your own."

"What!?  How do you know all of this now!?  And why should I do it alone?  You're coming out with us!"

Then a computers voice said, "Doomsday will commence in T minus 2 minutes."  

"I will explain it all later!" exclaimed Boomer, "And I have to stay behind to make sure you get out.  I will meet up with you at a later point.  Now hurry!  We don't have much time!"

Sally nodded and dashed off to a ladder that was in a shaft.  Once she was gone, Boomer started to go to a fuse box as he mumbled, "Good by Sally...  I'm sorry."  He ripped the cover of the box open and he switched out a few wires.  He then grabbed onto a steel pipe that was not too far off.  He kept on yanking on it till it ripped out with sparks flying.

He walked over to one of the large metal orbs and stared it down.  He then swung the pipe at it as hard as he could.  It made a loud ping as it delivered a dent.  Boomer hit it again and again till it ruptured.  Hot toxic gas shot out like a geyser and blasted Boomer down.  He screamed as it burned away his flesh.  Halon started to flood the area as a red alarm turned on.

***

Sally made it into the chamber and was just in time to catch the naked fox as he fell from the magnet.  He was completely exhausted and seemed to be wounded.  She then went over to release Cream and Charmy.  They where in bad shape as well.

While Sally was getting them out, a loud alarm sounded and the computer exclaimed, "Warning! Lower Power Housing has become unstable.  Reinsert main power source!  Reinse...  Danger!!  Super magnet reserves are overloading!  Danger!!"  Then there was a loud explosion above them.  Sally hurried and got Cream and Charmy off the platform.

"Come on guys!" exclaimed Sally in near panic, "I can't help you all out, your going to have to run on your own, come on, get moving!!"  She pushed them up to there feet, trying to get them to start running out of there.

***

In the control chamber all the holographic screens were red as the alarm kept wailing.  "NOOOOO!!!" exclaimed Robotnik.  The power housing is backed up with uncirculated energy!!  The fuel tanks are imploding!!  How could this happen!!"  He pulled the leavers back down, "Shut down systems!!  Shut them DOWN!!  Why are they not shutting down!!?"

"Danger!!" exclaimed the computer, "Chain reaction is leaking to Mid Power Housing.  Power to Doom Emitter is failing."

Robotnik then turned and glared at Sonic.  "Gerrrr!  I still can Robotisize you!!"  With a snarl, he went to the control panels and mashed the button to start the machine.

***

While everything was exploding and imploding, Sally was trying to get everyone across the catwalks.  Fire rained down from the burning devices from above.  "Stay close everyone!" exclaimed Sally as she was trying to get everyone through.

They went into some tight enclosures that the catwalk went into.  The pipes all around them vibrated as the whole place was getting ready to blow.  They kept on crawling threw the tunnel made from pipes.  They had to take a few turns as they went and could only hope that Sally would be able to find her way.

Then there was a big explosion that broke apart the tunnel.  It sent Sally, Charmy one way, and Tails, Cream the other.  The catwalk started to bend downward with Tails still on it.  Down bellow him was Cream hanging on to a ravaged piece of metal, trying not to fall into the roaring fires below her.

"Tails!" cried Cream, "Help me!  I can't hold for long!"

Tails started to reach out to her, but suddenly the images of his dreams flashed threw his eyes.  The devastation that the future Cream will cause.  Then her words echoed in his mind "If all you wanted, was us to be slaves! Then maybe you should have left me to die back in that doomsday tower!!  YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE THEN!!  But no, you were cruel and made me live a life of slavery!"  Could this be what that dream was telling him about.  With all this, he withdrew his hand.

"What are you doing Tails?" cried the little rabbit, "Wait!  Tails!!  Don't Leave me!!  Please don't leave me!!"

More to Come
here we go, at least you did not have to wait that long for this one. Looks like a few things are going on, or just a little things going on. Maybe i am loseing my touch for this story. But it looks like Tails is thinking it over about Cream. Should he let her fall and burn?

Also no ceremony of ageing, that's a shame, it's still a really good series and I enjoyed reading it! I can only pray that there will be more chapters added in the future.
