Sonic
Attack on Downunda
By Michael/Emerald8
Author Column
Hi, Emerald here. I have a few things I’d like to tell you about myself:
I myself have been making sprite comics for about two years. But only
recently have I been able to post them online for everybody to see.
My “Vacation sites” are as follow
http://sonicverseteam(art)
http://come.to/sonicV (Hoaxes)
http://fanfiction.net (could be this site)
and the site you are probably on right now, The Protection Force
My old comics were all about Sonic. Then he was captured by Robotnick.
Blah blah blah. Then my computer crashed. I made a new comic. This one had
backgrounds. Sonic had to fight Metal Sonic, Snow metal,(Who turned out to be
Metal Sonics super form in Chaotix) Knuckles (As a crazy psycho), metroid
villains, and even sephiroth and jenova! Then.. my computer crashed again.
I almost gave up until one day while reading bob and george. There was a
punch line in it that called Light Dr. Dense. I thought that was really
funny. So what If I made a comic about the strange adventures of a Dense Dr?
I created it and needed to send it to a web site. I could find none. I
decided to make another one, about Mario and Kirby. They are (or are going to
be. Plot is moving slow) traveling to other game worlds in search of Sonic,
who is on the Geneses inverting all the NES games colors and characters! I
read a story on Sonic Verse by Sonick#. Then I searched again for a place to
upload comics. I found the ED zone. (http://eedd.fateback.com) And it was led
by Sonick# (called Nick#) and papa smurf.) I uploaded my comics and people
have seen them.
Now back to your regularly scheduled story
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
Downunda. A mostly barren landscape even before the reign of Robotnick or
Rotor. And yet, it’s the home of thousands. All thanks to the Storm sphere. A
nearly impenetrable force field that surrounds their ancient city, Stornum.
Actually, this isn’t the REAL Downunda. That place was destroyed long ago.
Yes, the whole area. The mobians migrated to the Sand blast zone where they
currently live. But it’s hard to say if it’s an improvement.
It’s president, Emu Guru, had nothing but peace in his reign. Until now.
Sonic and co. looked down from the high ledge they stood on Hundreds of
Rotor’s super strong, super fast mega SWAT bots attacking the barrier. They
watched as two Guard SWAT bots moved to the front line and smashed their
eight arms at the same time, shattering the barrier.
“Freedom Fighters, CHARGE!” shouted Sally. Bean, Bark, the fox (who turned
out to be Antoine to Sonics surprise), Mina, Sally, and of course, Sonic,
dashed down the hill into the fray of battle. “ This reminds me of that book
I read before. Oh yeah! The return of the King (tm)!” Sonic said to himself.
They smashed into the robots, taking out six at a time. Sonic tried his
luck destroying the Guard Swat bots. Sally and the others just focused on
taking out as many as they could. Antoine was slicing off limbs and Bark the
grizzly bear was smashing bots with his fists. Bunnie had to laser pistols
and she fired them like a sharpshooter, destroying two at once. Mina had a
hooked pipe that she struck of the heads of the bots. Sally was switching
between using a small laser hand-gun for distance attacks, and delivering an
unstoppable flurry of kicks to any robot foolish enough to get near her.
“Hey, guard swat-butts! You’re about to have some trouble livin’ up to your
name pretty soon!” Sonic said as he dashed between the legs of one G. swat-
bot. He skidded to a stop and went into Sonic spin mode. He launched himself
through the bot, and into the target of the other.
“Oh, shoot!” Sonic said as he changed direction in mid-air and burrowed
into the ground before the crimson beam could sear him. He reemerged
underneath the G. Swat-bot, going up the length of it’s body.
“Another job well, ugh!” Sonic was hit over the head by a normal swat bot.
“Hey, no far! Can’t a guy even give a victory sentence in the place?” Sonic
jammed his fist into the Robot’s chest plate. He tried to pull it out
“What the... It’s stuck!” Sonic exclaimed. He looked at Bark, who was
making short work of another bot doing the same thing Sonic tried to do.
“He makes it look so EASY!” Sonic exclaimed. The swat-bot buzzed back to
life.
“Excuse, me but can I get some HELP?” Sonic shouted. The Swat-bots timer
started. 3....2....1.... it was cut short when Bean appeared and shot a hole
through a certain part of it’s body.
“Thanks, pal. I owe ya’ one.” Sonic said as he gave thumbs up to Bean.
“Yeah, well if you want to be a freedom fighter Here, then you better not
do anything as stupid as that again. Do you hear?” Bean said angrily.
“Loud and clear.” Sonic said as he revved up his legs. He entered the city.
For a strange reason, it seemed deserted. Well, except the Swat-bots. They
were destroying the stone structures left and right. Sonic jumped out in
front of a line of them.
“Hello, and thank you for joining the Sonic express. Hurry up if you want
to get on.” he said before he ran down a corridor. The Swat bots chased him
through about a mile of the complex. Finally, Sonic reached a dead end.
“Thank you for riding the Sonic express. Don’t forget to see our great
souvenir shop before you leave” Sonic said as he waved goodbye. He quickly
spun through a particularly weak spot in the wall, collapsing it on top of
the Swat-bots.
“Huh, I guess they didn’t have the time.” Sonic ran back out of the city.
Apparently, most of the Swat-bots had already been destroyed. Sonic saw a
group of six a few feet to the left of him. He went into sonic spin mode
again and bowled through 5 of them.
“Can he pick up the spare?” Sonic said as he dashed past the remaining bot.
It went into rapid fire mode and ended up shooting it’s fallen comrades.
Sonic turned around, ran at the Swat-bot, jumped, and Kicked his head clean
of. It sailed through the up-stretched arms of a swat-bot laying in the
ground.
“An it’s good!” Sonic said as he raised his hands.
The rest of the battle was more of the same. And within a few minutes, they
had cleared the bots out.
“Well, that was fun.” Sonic said as he joined in with the others. Sally
looked at Bean.
“Did you notice any mistakes on his part?” she asked.
“Um...” Bean thought. He looked at Sonic, who had a pleading look in his
eyes.
“None.” he finally said.
“Good. Ok, I think we’ve got another freedom fighter. But we aren’t done
here yet.” Sally said.
“What do you mean? We wiped them of the map!” Sonic said.
“Yes, but look over there.” She pointed to the sky. Sure enough, 5 small
transport trains were coming over the horizon.
“Get ready for zee wave two!” Said Antoine swinging his blade of his back.
The freedom fighter tensed themselves. As soon as they dropped their cargo,
they would attack the lot of them and take out as many as possible before
they came online. Closer...closer. They were almost to drop off point.
“Hey, everybody. I was wondering why nobody was in the city when we got
here? The city is a barren as the desert we’re standing in” Sonic said
“I can ansa’ that one, fer ya’. ‘z because them all got that cellar thingie
down unda' neath the town. That’s where dem used to go when the Storms used
to come. Then they got that Storm sphere thing put up ‘n they rarely us it no
more.” Mina explained in her strange way of talking.
“Ok, then if they have that cellar incase their shield broke, why did they
need us to protect them?” Sonic asked.
“ Because it’s a little, conspicuous if ya know hat I mean. They might ‘z
well put up-a sign saying ‘Come in! Kill us! We don’t mind!’” Mina said.
sonic nodded. Soon the swat bots would drop down, and they would be in their
second battle since Sonic joined there fight. Suddenly, the wind picked up.
Slow at first. Then faster, and faster, until they had a full blown sand
storm. The carriers where jammed with sand and fell to the ground. Sonic
covered his eyes.
“Well, I guess this makes things easier for us, right?” Sonic asked.
“Are you to be kidding?! We must be going, very zoon!” Antoine yelled above
the high winds.
“Freedom fighter! To your vehicles!” Sally shouted. Sonic and the rest ran
blindly trying to find their transport. Sonic herd a motor start up. It was
mina bike. He tried to reach it, but soon it was just a noise in the
distance.
“Hey guys? Where are you? Hello?!” Sonic shouted.
Back in the van Sally was in the front driving away.
“Is everyone hear?” She asked as she opened the small sound proof window
that was between the cargo hold and drivers seat.
“Yez, yez. No let us leave zis horrible place already!” Antoine said from
the back seat. The window closed.
“Are you kidding?” Bean shouted “We left behind Sonic.”
“Who?” Antoine said in fake honesty.
“You know who I mean!” Bean shouted.
“Well eet is being his fault eef he cannot find ze van! And don’t zhout at
me! Do you want m to pull ze rank on you!?” Antoine yelled back at Bean. Bean
sat down with his arms crossed. What else will happen this week, he thought.
Sonic was laying on the ground. The sand in his ear, mouth, eyes, and skin
scratching him to the point of bleeding. No wonder they needed a Force
shield!
It was a few hours later. The storm had stopped and the villagers had come
back out.
“Hey, hey Aaron! Come look at this!” a young male.
“Whoa, who do you think he is, Ray?” said another voice.
“I don’t know, but maybe we should take him to our base!” said Ray.
“Okay, help me pick him up.” said Aaron.
“Geez, this guy is bloody! He must have been in the storm for along time!”
Ray said as they lifted him up and took Sonic away.
That night, in Robotropolis...
“ King Roter. I have returned.” said a voice in Rotor’s war room. Rotor was
wearing a suit identical to Robotnick's and his whisker combed to look like a
mustache.
“Why do you insist on calling me Rotor!” The walrus said, spit flying from
his mouth.
“I am Robotnick! There is no Rotor! Rotor never was!” he bellowed.
“He has completely lost it.” the figure thought. But he said “What do you
wish to know, my king?
“I want to know why my attack on Downunda failed!” Rotor yelled.
“ There were two reasons. The first being that a sand storm wiped out the
second fleet before it could set down.” he said
“And the second” Rotor demanded.
“It seems the freedom fighters have found a new team mate. He must have
helped them. I, however, did not notice him leave with them.” he said.
“Then it is safe to say that he is dead and our next attacks won’t fail?”
Rotor asked.
“Yes, it is sire.” the figure concluded.
“You are dismissed.” Rotor said.
“Thank you, Dr. Robotnick” the figure said before starting to leave.
“And I don’t EVER want you to call me Dr. Robotnick again! I am Rotor!
There is no...” he continued until he had left.
“He has completely lost it.” he thought to himself.
