Sonic The Hedgehog 6:Something To Die For... Since Binx's death, Sonic has not made any attempt to find Robotnik. He keeps on telling Sally about the flickering eyes he saw, but even she couldn't explain it. She just told Sonic it was her time to go. Tails recovered and admitted how he was hypmotized. Everything has been quiet in Knothole, two years have past since Sonic has stared into Binx's cold, dark eyes and touched her purple face. It seems as if Sonic's fighting days over. Herbie and the rest of the gang plan on returning home in a couple of weeks, it just isn't the same without Binx. There was only one usual thing that happened...Robotnik gave Sonic A.N.T back for a 'I'm sorry' present. So, without any further or due, the next chapter in Sonic's long story. --------------------COMPUTER INVENTORY--------------------- - 1.green chaos emerald 2.the bible 3.Tail's antibotic(from the Sonic X stabbing) 4.Binx's lucky necklace 5.a song Sonic wrote ------------------INVENTORY COMPLETE----------------------- - "A.N.T, search undelete files."

SAFEGUARD!!!!! SAFEGUARD!!!!! =========================================================== "What is it A.N.T?" "Before I was sent to you, the safeguard was permantly put on a few objects such as everything dealing with Binx." "But this was supposed to be an 'I'm sorry' present!" "You really believe that Sonic? Are we talking about the same Robotnik?" "I guess you're right." "Sonic you have to get that safe-guard off." "Why can't you do that? You're the computer!" "Sonic please don't uspet yourself over this please-" "I am not upsetting myself! Binx's death has changed me, yes, but I gotta move on!" "Ok, back to the orignal ques-" Sonic burst out crying. "She's dead, A.N.T. It's just not right. She died, and I killed her. By, by the one thing she loved, music." "Sonic, we've had this conversation before. Binx is in a better place now." "I KNOW THAT! I'VE HEARD A THOUSAND TIMES! WHEN BIXN DIED, SHE DIED A ROBOT. NOT A FREEDOM FIGHTER, A ROBOT. AND I REMEMBER WHEN I FIRST MET HER, ROBOTNIK SAID-" "Finish Sonic." "I forget! REMEMBER! SONIC! C-MON! I AM SO STUPID!" "She was good to you, and remember, she always will be one of my best pals." "Now all her friends are leaving, and just me, you Tails, Sally, Antuone and Bunny will be left." "They won't leave Sonic. Once they see the condition you're in, they won't." "What are you saying?" "You're so- oh nevermind." "That's what I thought." Sonic walked out of his cabin. "God, Sonic. You sure have changed." "Oh Mademoiselle Cowacart, please let me count the ways." "God Antoune, calm yourself." "Sorry." "You flurt with everyone!" "I know, I'm that kind of guy I guess." "You make me sick." "When are you guys leaving?" "Well, the only plane we could get to Warminster was next month." "Oh, that's cool." "Yeah, we can pull Sonic together." "He needs it. Who was Binx?" "The coolest girl we knew. Cared about everyone." "Cool." "You should've met her." "Yeah, she was cute when she died..." "You make me sick!" "Sorry. Where are me and Bunny gonna stay?" "You in Herbie's cabin, Bunny with us." "Oh goodie! The only boy! I love it!" "Well, I got to get a shower so if you don't mind..." "Ok, bye Cowie." "You are so immature." "I know." "Sally? Can I come in?" Tails knocked on the cabin door. Antuone ran out. "What were you doing in there?" "It's not what it looks like." "Why are there clothes on the ground!?" "Cowacart's in the shower." "Oh, you were just talking." "God, I thought I was immature." "Is Sally in there?" "Yeah, she's sleeping." "Thanks. See ya Antuone." Tails walked into the room. Sally was awake, sitting on the foot of the bed. "Tails, I had the weirdest dream." "So did I." "I dreamed that-" They both said together... "KNUCKLES WAS HERE." Chapter 2 "De ja vu." "Yeah, really Tails." "I bet he's still with his girlfriend in Hawaii." "Maybe." "Yeah, he was a good Freedom Fighter but unforunatly he was robotnizied. It took two years to turn him back. Then he retired, when he found out his powers were taken away from him. He blamed it on Sonic, saying when he turned him back to a Freedom Fighter he purposely took away his powers. But we all knew it was because Knuckles was not training his body when Robotnik wasn't around. Poor guy." "Get a hold of him." "Why?" "With you, Sonic, and Knuckles, you guys can kill Robotnik once and for all, for Binx." "But he might be mad at Sonic still." "Not if you tell him the truth." "Ok, I'll do it. Let me get the phone." "What's the name of Knuckle's girlfriend again?" "I can't remember. I think Candice." "Invite her too." "Yeah, we could use some more women!" "You're nasty!" "That's why you love me." "Got that right." "A.N.T, search phone directory, Knuble through Knudy." "Okay Tails, where is Sonic?"

"Welcome Tails." Tails ran out of the cabin. "Sally I got it!" "Okay start dialing." Tails dialed slowly. The phone rang three times before someone picked up. "Hey Homie! Knuckles speaking." "Knuckles?" "Yes, who is this?" "This is Tails." "TAILS! BUDDY! NICE TO HEAR FROM YOU? A.N.T GIVE YOU THE NUMBER?" "Yep. He's such a good computer. I haven't heard you in five or six years!" "I KNOW! WHAT'S UP?" "Sonic's girlfriend Binx died a couple of years ago." "OH MY GOD." "You sound scared." "TAILS, WHEN AND WHERE WAS BINX KILLED?" "July 12th 2000 and in a field or clearing really." "OH MY GOD." "What?" "CANDICE WAS KILLED ON THE SAME EXACT DAY IN HAWAII AND IN A CLEARING." "OH I'M SO SORRY!" "HOW IS SONIC HOLDING UP?" "NOT SO GOOD. THAT'S WHY I CALLED YOU." "WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO ABOUT IT?" "ARE YOU GUYS STILL MAD AT EACH OTHER?" "NO, REMEMBER BEFORE I LEFT WE HAD A LONG CONVERSATION?" "OH YEAH. CAN YOU MOVE BACK?" "I THOUGHT YOU WOULD NEVER ASK." "GREAT!" "OK, SEE-YA TAILS." "HE'LL LOVE IT! BYE." "BYE." "What will I love Tails?" "Oh, Sonic! Where did Sally go?" "Her and Cowacart and the others went to the mall." "Oh, I didn't even see her leave." "So, who was on the phone?" "Benny." "Really? Oh, you guys had a delightful conversation. What a dork." "Me?" "Yeah, you were talking to the geek." "Are you serious?" "Am I ever?" "God, you scared me" Something crashed behind Sonic. "Tails, what was that?" "I don't k-know, the wind???" "TURN AROUND DORKHOG." "S-S-Sonic...turn around." Sonic turned around slowly. He screamed when he saw what was there. Chapter 3 "SONIC X!" "RIGHT. WANNA DOGGIE TREAT?" "TAILS, GO GET THE OTHERS." "SURE THING." "WHAT DO YOU WANT?" "YOU." "WHERE DO YOU LIVE?" "I GOTTA SECRET!!" "WHAT?" "I KNOW WHERE BINX IS BURIED." "WHERE? WHERE?" "THE CASTLE." "THE ROTTING PIECE OF JUNK CASTLE?" "YEP." "WHERE?" "WE GOT A FEW TRICKS UP OUR SLEEVES." "WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH HER? IS SHE ALIVE?" "I CAN'T ANSWER THAT SONNY!" Sonic X pulled out a tape recorder and pushed the play button. "SAY IT, SAY IT!" "SEGA!" The tape went off. Sonic laughed. "What was that?" "Silly Sonic, riddles are for kids." "Huh?" "God, Do I always have to repeat myself?" "Just what did you say?" "This is a clue brainless." "To what?" "That's for me to know and you to find out." "I'm listening." "Silly Sonic, riddles are for kids. She rises high above the rest, on December twenty-fifth." "What?" "Take it sentence by sentence, Sonic." "Are you leaving now?" "SONIC X SPINDASH*!" Sonic X spindashed out of the cabin. "Riddles are for kids?" "So what's the scoop Herbie? Can you help me?" "Well Sonic, it says riddles are for kids. I ain't no kid." "Then who is?" "Listen I gotta go back to work. try around, someone gotta know the answer." "Kid..." "What?" "Tails! That's it! Tails!" "Tails is 13 year old. I wouldn't exactly call him a kid." "The youngest one here." "True." "Thanks for the help Herb." "Anytime Sonny." "Figure it out Tails?" "Yep. Easy one man." "Then tell me." "The chicken." "Huh?" "The chicken." "Are we talking about the same riddle here?" "What are you talking about?" "What are you?" "What came first the chicken or the egg." "STUPID!!!" "What?" Sonic gave Tails the riddle on a piece of paper. "So?" "Oh my God!" "What?" "NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!" Chapter 4 "Tails, was does it mean?" "SILLY SONIC RIDDLES ARE FOR KIDS MEANS IT'S FOR ME." "YOU HAVE TO FIGURE IT OUT TAILS." "SHE RISES HIGH ABOVE THE REST..." "TAILS, I CAN'T HELP YOU HERE." "I KNOW! I KNOW!" "WHAT TAILS?" "SOME GIRL REALLY TALL." "YEAH?" "NEXT SENTENCE." "ON DECEMBER TWENTY-FIFTH." "OKAY, SOME GIRL REALLY TALL WILL RISE ABOVE THE REST ON DECEMBER 25." "THAT REALLY MAKES SENSE." "YOU GOTTA UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M WORKING WITH HERE." "Well, you're right." All of the sudden, Tails turned blue. His eyes rolled back into the head and he fainted. "Tails! What's the matt-" Sonic then fainted. "Bunny, I love that outfit. It's so cool." "Thanks Herbie. Do you know where Sonic and Tails are? I haven't seen them in a while." "I have no idea." "What are we gonna listen to now?" "Soundgarden?" "Which CD?" "SuperUnknown." "Do you have Badmotorfinger?" "Yes. I stinks." "What's that smell Herb?" "Ew... it's making me sick-" Both Bunny and Herbie collapsed. "Robotnik, the village is almost sleeping. Funny gas, what a good idea." "I know Clucky." "Robotnik, you're scaring me." "Oh am I? He he he he he he he!" "Um... sir..." "SMELL THE VICTORY IN THE AIR! DON'T YOU SMELL IT?" "Sir...that's smells a lot like..." "LAUGHING GAS!!" Sonic flew in the window. "How...what.." "ROBOTNIK! THAT JUNK IS WEAK! 5 MINUTES? K-MART HAVING A SALE?" "CLUCKY!! IS THAT WHERE YOU GOT IT?" "Sir, it said it would last for an hour." Sonic put on a gas mask. "NOW MY STUFF IS SURE TO KEEP YOU DRE-" Sonic saw a glowing figure in the corner. "Binx..." "CLUCKY! HE'S SOFTENING!" The figure walked to Sonic. "Binx...is it really you?" "BINX DON'T JUST STAND THERE! HIT HIM." Binx slapped Sonic across the face. "That's not the Binx I know." Binx shook her head pretending the shake away Robotnik's commands. "Sonic I am so so sorry." "That's all right my love." Binx grabbed Sonic's gas mask. "Take off the mask so I can kiss you." "No Binx. I can't." "Kiss me." Sonic was drawn to her eyes. "I-I can't Binx." "I need a kiss." Sonic couldn't stand it any longer. He removed the mask and Binx elbowed him in the back. Sonic fell. She turned around, a smile on her face. "Good enough?" "I can't believe Binx did that! Did anyone hear the last sentence?" Sally asked. Everyone was sitting in front of the window. Tails was looking in. "Sonic's hurt guys!" "Tails, you gotta be quiet." Doink whispered. "Well, did anyone hear it?" "I DID," and voice called from the window. "SHE SAID GET OUT!" Binx pushed them, and they plummeted towards the ground. Chapter 5 "THE BUSHES!" All of them landed in a pile of dead bushes. "THE BUSHES FROM THE BOTTOM OF CLIFF." "Sally, we have to get back up there, Sonic is in trouble." "I know Tails." "Hey, maybe if I go fast enough I can make it back up to the window sill. Everyone hop on." Everyone sat on Tails. "Ok, I can't breathe but that's what I get for doing this." "Go Tails before you pass out!" Cowcart said. "TAILS THRASHER*!" Tails sped towards the wall and pushed upward. He spindashed along the side of the castle, to the window sill. "Here guys get off!" Everyone got off but Tails fell. "TAILS!" He landed on the ground with a 'plop'. "Ow, remind me never to do that again." "Tails!" "Sally, don't worry." "Tails..." "I'll be there, when you least expect it!" "Ohhh. Where am I?" "Hi Sonic. Robotnik, he's waking up." "Good Binx." Sonic looked at the window and caught a glimpse of Sally's head. "What the-" "He's seeing things. Sonic, please lay down." Sonic got up and started to walk to the window. Binx stuck her foot out and tripped him. He fell on his face. "Ow." "Have a nice trip. See ya next fall." "Why am I here?" "He's zonked! Totally zonked!" "Binx, I'm leaving for a second, please watch the hedgehog." Robotnik walked out of the room. "Thank God he's gone." "Huh?" "Sonic, you know I'm fooling you right?" "No sorry I have not yet been informed." "See these braclets?" Binx held her wrists out to Sonic. "Yep." "You gotta get them off." "Binx, you're bad." "I sware I'm not!" "And..." "Sonic I would never lie!" "THEN HOW DID YOU COME BACK TO LIFE?" "YOU WERE THE ONE WHO SAW MY EYES FLICKER, I THINK YOU CAN ANSWER THAT!" "No.." "YES SONIC! I WAS ALIVE! YOU JUST LEFT ME FOR THE COLD...AND ROBOTNIK." "OH BINX! I LOVE YOU!" "Promise you will always check to see if I am really dead?" "Promise. Now what do we-" "CHARGE!" Sonic X, Rotor, and Robotnik ran towards Sonic. Sonic ducked out of the way, and all three of them slammed into the wall. Outside, the ledge broke and everyone began to fall. "Tails to the rescue!" Tails flew over and rescued them, landing them safely on the ground. Tails just watched the window, waiting to see what would happen next. Robotnik turned around, preparing to charge again. "HASTA VA VISTA, BAD GUYS!" Sonic clothes lined all three of them, and they fell out of the window. Binx and Sonic could only watch. "Now what?" Binx asked. At that moment, the castle began to shake, Binx and Sonic had no choice but to jump out the window. They turned around, and saw the castle crumble to the ground. "BINX, WHAT'S TODAYS' DATE?" "Sonic, gimmie a break." "I need to know." "December 25." Chapter 6 A figure, taller than all of them, stood before Sonic. "I AM SONETTE. PRONOUNCED SON-ETTE." "WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH US?" Binx said. "I WANT YOU." "ME? SONIC? OR HER BINX?" "BOTH OF YOU. TODAY, I AM QUEEN. ME AND ROBOTNIK WILL RULE THE WORLD." All of the sudden, and bow from a bow and arrow flew through the air and hit Sonette's heart. She collapsed. Sonic turned around but no one was there besides the other girls and Antuone. When he turned back to look at Sonette, she was gone. "HEY SONIC! GOOD SHOOTIN' HUH? NO NEED FOR THANKS!" Sonic turned back around. "Knuckles!?" Knuckles had tears in his eyes. "It's me old pal. I'm here to stay." Sonic ran and hugged Knuckles. "Oh Knuckles!" Sonic started to cry. "I missed you so much." "Sonic I'm staying." Everyone joined in the giant hug. "I'm here to stay." An eerie laugh flooded the sky. They ignored it...for now. Stay tuned for Sonic 7: On the Run!
