FINAL CONFRONTATION

[metaloverlord]

Throughout this week, you all have been hard at work preparing for your final confrontation with the person behind all of this - Neo Metal Sonic. His fleet of ships has taken over the skies, and Tails has been working on a means to get you safely onto the correct one. Given that you've all been called into the workshop today, it seems like it's finally time.

"I've got the correct coordinates and we're ready to go. We'll all be joining you in this fight."

Sonic nods and continues, "Let's avoid a repeat of last time, yeah? I'm still going to try to keep his attention on me since the plan is still the same - you guys have gotta knock the Master Emerald outta him!"

"You all have had some practice with your powers and with what the Master Emerald can do, so you should be better prepared for this fight. Still, remain on guard!"

Tails flicks the device to life and a portal opens. Unlike the rings, this one doesn't show where exactly you'll be going. "Everyone ready? Let's put an end to this."

You arrive in the interior of one of those ships - the long hallway you're in is made of thick, dark silver steel, with absolutely nothing in the way of décor. The way behind you leads to a door - gated shut, with seemingly no way to open it from this side - while the path ahead of you leads up a small flight of stairs to what can only be described as a throne. It is simplistic in design and still made of that dark, practical steel without any adornments or embellishments, but it provides Neo Metal Sonic a height advantage to loom over you, something he couldn't really manage on most of you without taking to floating.

He sits in the chair now, red eyes fixed on all of you. One elbow is propped on the arm of the chair and his chin leans against his hand, giving off the air of "bored monarch" that he's probably going for.

"So you've arrived. You've kept me waiting."

He gets up then, rising to float as he had before, sparks of that familiar green Chaos Energy flaring to life around him. "Let's not waste any more time. I'll destroy you all here and now. And you," his eyes flick to Sonic, "will trouble me no further."

"Does it even really count when I'm not the version of Sonic you've fought before...?"

"Silence." Sonic shrugs and Neo Metal Sonic dismisses him, turning his attention back to you all. "You all have caused enough problems for me. Once I've crushed you all, nothing will be able to stop me."

[Dorothy thankfully manages to dodge most of the lasers and waves--only taking one hit of them all (19, 6, 16, 5); but with Raven so close and taking a better look at the battlefield...]

Raven, dear, I have an idea. We need to go help the others, and...I have an idea of how to do so.

[Dorothy holds out her hand, her amethyst shining.

Let's run on over and help More and Ashley; they'll get a nice invisibility cloak made of water that will reduce their chances of being targeted for three turns!]

[akademise]

[ More has just been bodied by two lasers and is reeling from that a little, but the strange coolness of the cloak feels like balsam on his fried body. ]

Ah-- Thank you.

[ Just wrapping this tightly around himself and disappearing from sight, goodbye. ]

[ungratefuloz]

Think nothing of it, dearest More.

[If we can prevent you from getting bodied we will!! That's what friends do!!!]

[reallyfishy]

[Raven took a hit from one of the lasers (2), but he's managed to dodge everything else this round (18, 14, 19)!]

Oh, yeah? I'm all for it.

[He takes her hand with his topaz-embedded one. Get some cloaks, you two!]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

Ooohh- th- thank you!

[ungratefuloz]

Of course, Ashley! Do try to stay safe; we'll do all we can to keep the offensive up.

[GO DO US PROUD GIRLIEPOP.]
