SONIC X-TREME

Episode 77: The Black Rising Part 7: The Dawn of the Black Eclipse

Written by Erin Delgado and Reece Wooldridge

Last time on Sonic X-Treme, we see the sinister villains, like Metallix, Scourge and Finitevus deal with the Black Arms, while the Wild Gang deal with the aliens too, plus Robotnik has escaped imprisonment from the Brotherhood of Metallix but gets shot in the arm by a new robot, based on Fiona Fox. Meanwhile back on the Black Comet, we see Black Doom sensing that his army is losing to Mobius.

Black Doom: "It appears that the Mobians and Humans of this planet are stronger than I remember... 50 years ago... No matter. Mobius will fall and the Black Arms will rise as the ritual will come..."

He then pulls out a Warp Ring from the tattered clothes he wore. He looked at it and if he had a mouth, he'd be smirking.

Black Doom: And this maybe a big key to our victory.

It was then a Black Arms trooper approached him.

Black Arms Trooper: Sir, Eclipse is coming here as we speak, and Black Terror and Jasmine are returning to the comet to gain reinforcements. They suffered massive loses.

Black Doom: Indeed they have. But when Eclipse is here I want you to leave.

Black Arms Trooper: (nods) Yes sir.

Soon, Eclipse arrives in the main room and the trooper leaves. The younger alien had an angered look on his face as he looked at Black Doom.

Eclipse: Why have you dragged me away from the fighting, father? I want Mobian blood.

Black Doom: You shall, Eclipse, you shall, now that we have this (he holds up the Warp Ring) this will be helpful for us in defeating the Mobians and humans.

Eclipse: What the device capable of then?

Black Doom: Rather simple, my son. We just throw it in the air, it opens as a small portal, and we can go through it. I intend to use it to go into GUN's vault and get the Chaos Emeralds they poses.

Eclipse: (smirking) That's interesting...though I must say, how about we see where Shadow is?

Black Doom: What do you mean?

Eclipse: Last I saw of my brother, he was fleeing back to GUN HQ, and I've seen how he is with the female bat...I think he has feelings for her.

Black Doom: Hmmm...I see what you are thinking of, Eclipse. Very well, I shall send my eye to see whereabouts Shadow is, and we'll follow your plan.

Eclipse: (grinning) Thank you, father.

Back in Westopolis, The Freedom Fighters and GUN soldiers continued to attack Axitus' ship. Then Tails shoots a missile at the ship making a hole.

Tails: "Okay guys, we have to go inside and rescue Bunnie and Antoine!"

Others: "Right!"

Sonic: "Let's do it to it!"

Then the heroes got inside the ship and advance forward, until Axtius and some Black Warriors block their way.

Axtius: "That's far enough Mobians! Surrender now or we'll shoot!"

Sonic: (smirks) "Sorry Alien head. Don't know the meaning of Surrender..."

Axtius growled. His hands then glowed purple as did his eyes and he hovered above the ramp, glaring at the heroes.

Axitus: You shall surrender and bow to the Black Arms!

Sonic and Sally dodged one side, while Tails and Fiona dodged one side as Axitus fired a purple blast at them. The blast missed the four Mobians, though several GUN soldiers were knocked off their feet. But before Axitus could do it again, Sonic spin dashed into his gut, knocking him to the ground.

Axitus: OOF!

Sonic: Sal! I'll handle this guy, you, Tails and Fi get in there and rescue Ant and Bunnie!

Sally turns to Tails and Fiona.

Sally: You two rescue Bunnie and Antoine, I'll help Sonic.

Fiona: On it, Sally.

Tails: Be careful.

Sally: Will do.

Sally leapt down to where Sonic and Axitus were, and she readied her Bo staff. Sonic looked at Sally.

Sonic: Sal, I told ya to stick with Tails and Fiona.

Sally: The ship seems to be empty, and they can handle themselves.

Sonic: Good point.

Axitus hovered above the ground and his hands glowed purple again as he faced the two Mobians...

Inside the ship, Tails and Fiona made their way through the now wrecked corridors, trying to find Bunnie and Antoine.

Tails: (calling out) Antoine! Bunnie! Where are you!?

Fiona: (calling out) If you can hear us, shout back!

Soon enough, they could hear the two Freedom Fighters calling back at them.

Bunnie: Loud and clear, Sugah foxes!

Antoine: Just down zee corridor your in! We're around zee left corner!

The two foxes went to the corner and found them, still bound in cocoons. They ran to them and Fiona use her dagger to cut the cocoons, freeing the couple.

Bunnie: "Thanks sugah vixen. I hate being bound up in that."

Fiona: "No problem. Now let's get outta here."

They nodded as they left the lab, while Sonic backflipped from Axtius' Chaos Spears.

Sonic: "You're too slow!"

Axtius: "I'm not done with you yet rodent!"

Axtius leap at Sonic and punched him in the face, knocking him across the hall. Before Axtius can strike him again, Sally kicked him away.

Axitus: Agh!

He glared at Sally and rubbed the bruise where she hit him.

Axitus: That is a hit I shall return.

Sally: Believe me (points her Bo staff at him) I can hit harder.

Axitus snarled and leapt at Sally, who side stepped and jabbed the staff into his gut, winding him. Sally then gave him an uppercut and slammed her staff onto his head, battering his hat a little. Sally then spun in the air and shot her foot hard in his chest, sending the alien flying into the wall behind him.

Axitus: AGH!

He took his hat off and ran his hand through his hair. From where Sally hit him, he was bleeding, making him growl angrily. He glared up at her and Sonic, who gotten back on his feet. Axitus staggered to his feet and his hands glowed again.

Axitus: You Mobians are powerful opponents, as Black Terror said, but the Black Arms shall win.

He fired another Chaos Spear at the couple, both of whom dodged the blast.

Back in the battle ground at the city, the GUN soldiers began to shoot and blast more Black Arms, all of whom were now struggling as Nicole knocked them over with her nanite fists, while Emerl flew over, shooting down some of the Oaks and Black Hawks. On the ground, Nic and Lightning were fighting a small group of Black Arm troopers. Lightning dodged a swipe from one of them and proceeded to drive his foot up it's chin, before driving it's own blade into it's gut. He tore it out and tossed it into one trying to get Nic. The weasel gave him a smirk.

Nic: I knew he was there. I was gonna spin and blast him.

Lightning: ( chuckling) Heh, so you say.

He dodged a blast and tossed a dagger into the shooter, before fighting by Nic's side.

Lightning: You heard anything from Shadow and Rouge?

Nic: They radioed me before we attacked. Shadow told me Rouge was injured so he was taking her back to GUN HQ.

Lightning: "Let's hope they'll be okay."

Nic: "I hope so too..."

The two continued fighting the invaders.

Inside GUN HQ, Shadow got Rouge to the medical room at last and got her on the bed.

Shadow: "Here you go, we made it here at last."

Rouge: "Yeah we did. Thanks for escorting me handsome..."

Shadow: (smiled) "No problem. Will you recover?"

Rouge: "I might. But we do need to stop the Black Arms from getting the Chaos Emeralds."

Shadow: "You're right... They'll mostly be after those jewels and if they get their hands on those. Mobius is no more."

Then they hear the alarm and they then heard Commander Tower's voice.

Tower: (voice) Every GUN personal capable of fighting needs to be ready! The base is under attack! If agents Shadow and Rouge are around, they must get to the Chaos Emeralds in the vault and take them to another location!

Shadow sighed and looked at Rouge, who was getting up.

Shadow: Rouge, you don't have to come.

Rouge: No, Shadow, I will. Your not going on your own, because some of those guys are too strong for you...I love you, Shadow, and I'm not gonna let you do this alone.

Shadow sighed but smiled softly, before gently carrying Rouge in his arms. The bat felt her heart flutter at how gentle he was being, and he gazed down at her.

Shadow: I love you too, Rouge. You can come along with me, but we're going like this.

Rouge: Heh, such a gentleman. Alright handsome, you and me together to get those Emeralds.

Shadow kissed her cheek,making the bat blush brightly. He smirked.

Shadow: My pleasure. Hold on to me.

With that, the couple left the medical room and Shadow dashed down the corridor with Rouge in his arms...unknown that Doom's Eye was following them closely.

Doom's Eye/Black Doom: (thinking) They are on their way to the vault...when they get there, me and Eclipse will go after them...

Shadow and Rouge got deeper to the hallway and got to the vault, where the Chaos Emeralds are being held. Rouge did the code to the vault and it opened, showing three of the Emeralds, purple, green and blue.

Shadow: "Okay, now to get the Emeralds to a new location and make sure they're hidden for good."

Before Shadow can get the Emeralds away, a Warp Ring opened and a purple energy attack, strikes Shadow and Rouge, dropping the Emeralds, as they look in shock as Eclipse and Black Doom came out of the portal.

Black Doom: "Greetings, Shadow the Hedgehog..."

Shadow growled at the alien leader.

Shadow: "So, you're the one behind everything!"

Black Doom: "Exactly, I am Black Doom, leader of the Black Arms, who will bring order across the universe..."

Rouge: "More like death and destruction to me!"

Black Doom: Be silent, young bat.

Eclipse: Axitus may have landed some blows on you, bat, but I certainly wouldn't mind giving you a taste of what I have at fighting.

Shadow stood in front of Rouge protectively.

Shadow: (growling) Don't you dare touch her.

Rouge: Shadow, I can handle him.

Eclipse: Yes, do listen to her, brother. You think you can fight me and father on your own?

Shadow: Neither of you are family to me! Your monsters! And if you intend to further destroy those I care about, I'll destroy you!

Eclipse: So be it then.

Black Doom: I shall show you the true skills and strength of my powers, Shadow (he said as his hands glowed purple)

Back in Westopolis, the majority of the Black Arms were getting defeated by the Freedom Fighters, though Axitus was still fighting against Sonic and Sally as the heroes began to surround the trio.

Sally: "It's over Axtius!"

Axtius: "No, it's over for you!" (He got out a remote and press a button) "Farewell..."

Then he Chaos Controlled out of the ship.

Computer: "Self destruct is activated. Dead time: 60 seconds."

Sonic: "Shoot, it's not our day..."

Tails: "Well let's get out of here!"

The heroes escaped the ship as it blow up and fell to the city, destroying downtown and wiping out a bunch of GUN soldiers and Black Arms.

Sonic: "Oh man, it's not cool..."

Sally: "I feel bad for those soldiers. They still fight for the ones they love..."

Sally cried a bit.

Sonic: "Everything will be okay Sal. I promise..."

Sally cried sadly, and Sonic feet tears rise on his eyes as he and the others gazed upon the bodies of some of the soldiers caught in the blast. They looked burnt, blasted apart...and dead....

However, they heard a sound nearby. Looking to their right, they saw Emerl warping there through Chaos Control, carrying Nicole in his arms, along with Nic, Lightning, Elias, Bunnie, Antoine, and a large number of GUN soldiers he warped to safety. The sight of seeing the soldiers there made the heroes smile and Sally hugged Elias as she began to stop crying.

Sally: (crying softly) You guys managed to make it.

Elias: Thanks to Emerl and Nicole...though a large number of soldiers still gotten killed...

Sally: We'll avenge them. We will avenge them.

Sonic: Agreed totally on that, Sal.

They nodded but sighed as they looked at the burning wrecks of downtown. Nic sighed sadly as Lightning held her, then she gotten out her radio.

Nic: (sadly) This is Nic...what's the situation at HQ?

Tower: (voice) "Bad. The Black Arms are still attacking the base and their leader somehow got inside!"

Nic: "What?! We'll be on our way!"

Sonic: "We need to get there and fast!"

Everyone nodded as they ran to GUN HQ.

Inside, Shadow is dodging the swift strikes from Black Doom as he leap and punch Black Doom but he blocked Shadow's punches and swat him away, but Shadow recovered and spindash at Black Doom, who dodge the attack and laughed a bit.

Black Doom: "Impressive Shadow... It seems you've been getting stronger and more determined."

Shadow: "Yeah, determined to wipe you off the face of Mobius!"

Shadow shoots Chaos Spears at Black Doom, but they went through him, realizing that Shadow is fighting a hologram, then Black Doom reappeared and uppercut Shadow.

Shadow: AGH!

Shadow was sent flying onto the floor, making him groan as he struggled to get up. His fight with the alien leader was tiring him already...then he saw Rouge fighting Eclipse. Even though she was injured a bit, Rouge was putting up a good fight against the alien. Shadow then stood back to his feet and snarled as he then bounced off the boxes around him in his ball form. He shot in a zig zag, before striking Black Doom in the face, knocking him back, before slamming a Chaos Spear into his chest.

Black Doom: Arg...not bad, Shadow.

Black Doom fires another swift strike at Shadow, who continues to fight him.

With Rouge, she was struggling slightly against Eclipse, trying to dodge his punches and kick him in an open area, though the alien was quite tough.

Eclipse: "Impressive bat girl. I'm starting to like you."

Rouge: "Don't start creep!"

Rouge backflip a bit to dodge the darkling's punches then she jumped to the wall and screw kick him in the face, but Eclipse recovered and grinned, as he shoots Chaos Spears at Rouge who ran from the shots and hide behind crates. Then she got out bombs from her pockets and threw them at Eclipse which exploded. Rouge smiled, but noticed that Eclipse vanished. Rouge looked until the darkling ambushed her, punched her hard in the belly.

Rouge: "Ahhhhh!"

Then he toss Rouge across the floor, injuring her more. Eclipse laughed as he walked toward Rouge.

Rouge looked at him with a fearful look, and she felt a lot of pain shoot through her wings and feet, struggling to get back on her feet.

Rouge: K-Keep back!

Eclipse: (chuckling) Or what? I quite like you in that position.

Rouge growled, before tossing another Ring Bomb at the Darkling. However, Eclipse warped away from the explosion and grabbed Rouge from behind, lifting her up off her feet by her hands. Rouge began to shake as Eclipse ran his hand up her side, then he rested it on her hip.

Rouge: G-Get off!

Eclipse: Why should I? You have a nice figure...though I'd prefer it if you were asleep.

Before Rouge could say anything, Eclipse brought his hand up and sprayed some sleep gas into her face. The bat coughed and groaned as her eyes rolled back and closed.

Rouge: (moaning) Ohhhhhhh....

Eclipse smirked as she slumped into his arms and he rested her head against his chest. Shadow saw this and gasped.

Shadow: NO! ROUGE!

Shadow turned away from Black Doom and began to run at Eclipse and Rouge, readying his hands with Chaos Energy. However, Shadow screams loudly as a Chaos Spear slammed I to his back, making him stagger and slam to the floor, hard.

Shadow: Aghhhhh.....

He groaned and looked up. Shadow had a sad look on his face as Eclipse ran his snake like tongue over Rouge's cheek, while Black Doom hovered over to them, holding the Chaos Emeralds.

Black Doom: "You should've been part of my race Shadow... I could've kill you right now, but it's mostly amusing seeing you fail. Even if you save the planet, all of Mobius will still be against you. Why bother?"

Shadow: "Because, it's still the right thing to do..."

Black Doom: "Ha ha ha ha! Noble words from a little hedgehog. Now that I have the Chaos Emeralds and your female ally, victory will soon be mine..."

Black Doom laughed as he summoned the Warp Ring back to the Black Comet, Eclipse jumped in, with Rouge in tow, and Black Doom look at Shadow.

Black Doom: "If you want to see your friend alive, bring me the remaining Chaos Emeralds for the ritual before my soldiers does, otherwise, she'll make a lovely sacrifice for my offspring..."

Shadow glared at Black Doom, who turned around and left through the Warp Ring, which closed and vanished. Shadow growled as he stood up, wiping away the blood on his chin, with the cut healing.

Shadow: I will...I will....

TO BE CONTINUED...
