Chaos was floating through the sewers of the city. He could feel it... somewhere out there, there were some of the Chaos Emeralds. Would he find them, he would be one step closer to regaining his true strength.
He heard some human voices on the street above them, so he waited and listened. Afterwards, he slowly slithered up the wall and through the drainage.
----
"Did you find her yet?" the captain asked one of the subordinates. The soldier shook his head. "No, sir." "Keep searching! We cannot terrorists like her run loose with such powerful objects. You heard the commander: Failure is not an option."
"R-right away, sir," the private saluted.
Suddenly, they heard something... it was the sound of something coming out of the sewers. Something that looked like a puddle of water. And now, it changed its shape.
"It's a monster," the private cried out in terror.
"Calm down, soldier," the captain ordered. He pulled out his walkie-talkie. "All soldiers, return to City Hall! We need additional support. That's an order!"
----
Sonic was just speeding home, when he heard gunshots. 'Bank robbers?' he speculated. 'Perhaps the police needs some assistance.' He jumped up towards the building walls and ran past them, pushed himself away from the walls and somersaulted over the incoming army troops.
When he reached the plaza in front of City Hall, he saw the reason for the soldier's alert: It was a tall, humanoid monster made entirely from water. Several soldiers were cornering it.
"You're completely surrounded," the captain just shouted. "Surrender yourself!"
The monster didn't seem to understand him, or it just didn't care. Also, the multiple weapons aimed at its body didn't seem to worry it much. It just growled and took another step towards the soldiers.
"Lock on target, men," the captain ordered. "Get ready... fire!"
And the soldiers opened fire. Thirteen bullets fired by thirteen soldiers hit their target.
But then, the bullets fell down on the ground without having scratched the creature.
"Oh no," one of the soldiers shouted. "Our weapons are useless!"
"Retreat," the captain ordered. "All personnel, fall back!"
And after shooting two additional bullets at the creature, the captain and his men ran away from the scene, while Sonic jumped in front of the monster.
It growled at him with a kinda 'splashy' sounding voice and lashed out with its arm. The arm extended and grew longer as it lashed at the blue hedgehog. Sonic dodged by jumping over it. "Oh yeah," he said. "This could be fun."
Chaos just stared at him. The hatred towards all mortal beings was engraved in his face. He stretched out his arms even further, surrounded them with a magical, burning energy and spun them around while approaching Sonic.
Sonic jumped, skipped and threw himself on the ground to avoid the multiple attacks of his opponent. "You're not from around here, right?" he flippantly said. "If you like, try out the burger stand in the shopping arcade, okay? They make good chili-dogs."
Chaos growled again and concentrated its powers. Then, it hit the earth with a powerful punch. The impact made the ground shake, and it stunned Sonic for several seconds. "Whoa, they didn't tell me about that quake on the radio."
Chaos used that moment to punch Sonic into his face. The hedgehog flew back several feet.
"Now you've done it," he muttered. "You know how expensive a pack of aspirin is? It's highway robbery, I tell ya." He then smirked and launched his body as a ball towards the water creature. And surprisingly enough, it seemed to hurt it.
"Now let's finish this," Sonic said.
But before he could do anything, a dark shadow appeared on the wall that was surrounding the area. "I sense you're a dark creature, filled with anger," a female voice said. "Do not release that anger on the humans. Leave this place now!"
Chaos didn't like the appearance of another intruder, so once again, he lashed out with his arms. The figure blocked the punch simply with both hands and stretched out its right arm. "Chaos Spear!"
A lance of yellow energy shot out of the stranger's palm and hit the water creature. Chaos screamed in pain and decided to retreat. Two powerful opponents were too much for him. He would have to return after gaining his full strength. He returned to his puddle shape and slithered back into the drainage.
"Come on, you big drip," Sonic shouted. "Where are you going?"
"Leave him be," the stranger said. "You won't be able to catch him now."
Sonic looked closer at the figure. It was a female hedgehog with dark green fur. "Who are you?"
The girl smirked. "I am Pluto the hedgehog... the world's Ultimate Life Form - First Version! I have to go for now... farewell!"
She held up a gem. "Chaos Control!"
And in a flash of light, she was gone.
"Was that... a Chaos Emerald?" Sonic wondered. "Pluto... who is she anyway?"
