Tails' Workshop - House Party

[Garland]

Eggman pouted at the scene and grumbled. "Hmph. Metal, signal an Egg Pawn when you're ready to go."

"I can provide some of those. If you'd be willing to wait momentarily, we can talk back at my base. I have to collect some samples here first, however. If you would like to assist, I can get done more quickly." Eggman set to examining the scene, collecting debris and various samples.

[Jamie Lee]

Metal Sonic... was in conflict. ON ONE HAND... he didn't really want to stick around in case Amy suddenly turned her wrath in his general direction. ON THE OTHER... he really really really wanted to watch Sonic get pummeled.

The result? He stood there gawking while simutaneously motioning like he was about to bolt.

[Leedzie]

Long since accustomed to being abruptly yanked about by her hedgehog savior, Sally looked over at Amy in shock once Sonic set her back to her feet. "My goodness, what is wrong with her?? And where are those mallets coming from?" At least Tails has taken cover.

". . . ." Suddenly the princess's hand clamped around Sonic's wrist and most likely cut off the bloodflow. "Is that METAL SONIC?!"

[Sipp]

She nodded. "Very well. What kind of samples are you after? And where should I put them? " She glanced at Metal's behavior, "...He seems distressed."

((I'm guessing that Eggman dialogue wasn't supposed to be there XD; Don't mind me. ~Jamie))

[Topaz Mutiny]

Although for the Princess, there were suppossedly more concerning things than Metal just standing there. After her initial attack missed, Amy snarled in fury, making a sharp turn to continue to go after her prey.

The hammer she had thrown landed on the ground, but the one she had swung was still rather attatched to her fists. This time, the thorny Rose went for a horizontal swing at the duo, fangs bared to the roots. [dice=6][rand=28794967454336424945379511185531480244300889353692877228090492315]

"Uh...isn't anyone gonna friggin stop 'er?"

Rotor nervously grinned. "Uh...this is Amy Rose, Barby; even Metal here wouldn't deal with her when she's like this."

Looking at the robot, that says something about this insane girl. Its frightening now to the Australian accented girl that Amy is actually going for the kill. "Oi...it's amazing she's not in jail."

[Jamie Lee]

Metal paused, slowly turning his head to look at Barbie and Rotor. Did that walrus just have the nerve to come walk over here next to him and talk about him in front of him?

...

"Excuse me?" Metal asked, straightened himself up. His eyes took on an angry glow as he bored them into Rotor.

[AnT]

Already, Rotor was cowering behind Barby. "Nothing!" she squeaked. "It was her!"

"NO IT WASN'T!!!!" she roared, ready to bat her hockey stick on his head.

[Lans]

[dice=6]

"Dunno," Sonic answered, pulling Sally into his arms as he leaped over Amy's swing. "She seems to have some sort of thing for the me from this world, not that anyone could blame her, but it's a bit of a creepy thing."

Sonic spared a glance over at Metal as he zipped them out of Amy's swing range, if not her throwing range. "Yep...well, sorta. This one's actually almost cool if he'd get that stick out of his butt and quit working for their Buttnik."[rand=767236317230260131135459774281965257747554880386649923434666544136]

[Garland]

"Anything you think will be useful to helping me analyze portal mechanics and Robotnik's technology. Debris, soil samples, et cetera." A small display appeared in Eggman's glasses, making camera-like clicking sound. After a few clicks, Eggman turned his head over his shoulder and glared at Sonic. "I heard that, hedgehog."

[Topaz Mutiny]

And Amy continued to chase them, snarling with ever-growing rage, if that was even possible. She bent down, picking up the thrown hammer with one hand, and now came at them with two hammers. Again she threw one of the hammers, and then swung the other for a double-whammy. [dice=6] [dice=6]

"I'M GONNA MUTILATE YOU!!!!"[rand=3048997673628253939824444003768569956393955353686459117510853634]

"GEEZ!" Sonic exclaimed, doing some more quick dodging with Sally still in his arms, dancing out of swing range again. "Ok, this is really starting to get a tad out of hand, Amy!" he said to the pink pissed hedgie.[rand=62151047264061941990820601799047689200907203128467655253487726599]

[Leedzie]

That's AMY? Sally thought with surprise as she took another gander at the pink mallethog. Upon closer inspection, there were similarities to be noted... or at least vague ones. Honestly, the two didn't seem to be anything alike. The princess eventually pondered whether or not this was their Amy Rose's counterpart at all, and just happened to be a different person with a few coincidental likenesses.

In any case, that wasn't important at the moment, as this girl (whomever she may be) was pretty well hell-bent on finding out what their innards looked like. Sally furrowed her brow and retrieved her computer from the side of her boot, since Sonic seemed to be doing a pretty good job of dodging the attacks. "Nicole, dial down the power of your laser to a stun level!


"Laser intensity decreased, Sally."


The ground squirrel aimed her computer at Amy once she was in the proper range. "Fire!"

[dice=6] [rand=6582453589565371666570608228429399046300415020278002058427372122]

[Topaz Mutiny]

[dice=6]

Well, good news was that Sally's aim was perfect, as always. The BAD news was that it... kind of... sort of... didn't have much effect whatsoever on Amy, who only stumbled a bit when the lazer hit.

What did have an effect was her name being spoken. Her eyes blinked only once as she rallied for another assault, and then what Sonic had said along with her name prompted an explanation.

"YOU KISSED HER!!! D:<"

... Well... it was sort of an explanation.

"AND SHE'S NAKED!!!!"

In the meantime, swing that hammer girl! [dice=6][rand=6795909262786957243979473582170870274718847878992483868348696036949]

[Lans]

[dice=6]

Sonic let out an "OOOFFF!" as Amy's hammer caught him in the side, causing him to drop the princess and knock him a few feet away.[rand=2569826221866297605437706985226642491898526071848055293542525235069]

[Sipp]

((Yeah, it wasn't. Thanks, Jamie :x))



The tay wasn't really familiar with what he was talking about (but she wasn't about to admit that to him.) So instead she started picking up various samples... Debris, soil, bits of shrapnel...

...Psycho hedgehog hair? She wasn't particularly intimidated by the demon spawn bigger girl, so she siddled up behind the hedgehog....

And, a single pluck! [dice=6][rand=60839283106522243560810507008783451232324455655267115490387944]

Metal had noticed Az totter off to do as Eggman has requested. He barely paid a thought further to it afterward, the fight below being of much more interest to him (Especially now that Amy had managed to land a hit on that blasted hedgehog!). It wasn't until Az started inching closer to the crazed pink fury that Metal noticed her again, and his brow hiked up. What was that girl, insane?!

Upon realization of what she was about to do, the metallix's eyes widened. Oh hell, she was. His actions were immediate, though without the use of his engine not anywhere near as fast as he wanted. Hopping off the ledge he slid his way down the steep slope and snatched Az's hand, quickly pulling her away from Amy and hauling her up over his shoulder.

"Are you insane or do you simply you want to get ALL of us killed?!" Metal scolded, "This is for that hedgehog to handle, do not interfere!" despite whatever protests she might have had he began carrying her away.[rand=99719544458825645184300439193636044150540330011319882974754832444]

[Topaz Mutiny]

Fortunately for the entire group, Amy did not notice Az sneaking up behind her, nor Metal Sonic 'coming to her aid'.

Despite this, the apocyalhog paused in her rampage, glancing from Sonic to Sally. She was confused. She couldn't figure out who to beat upon first: the Nudist, or her Betraying Lover.

And so she stared at them both with murderous intent... and actually seemed to be calming down. A strange fluid had begun to fill her eyes, but Amy never realised those were tears.

[Leedzie]

Sally watched Amy carefully once she made it to her feet, but the princess noticed that the mallet-swinging hedgehog didn't seem to be advancing again. In fact, it looked like she was cooling off. Now seemed like a good time for some civil talk. Keeping her hands visible, Sally strode over to the emotional girl with an empathetic smile.

"Hey... Your name is Amy, isn't it?" The ground squirrel paused; her instinct was to hug her or rub her shoulder, but this was also the girl that'd attacked without warning with a very large hammer. Perhaps it would be best to avoid contact for now. Instead, introductions were in order. "My name is Sally. Are you okay?"

[Topaz Mutiny]

1- DEMON AMY 2- Not-so-demon Amy

[dice=2]

Of course, like all creatures that are still in a rage, the movement from Sally brought on an aggressive response. At first her quills bristled, and she glared at Sally. But now that Sally was much closer to her than Sonic, her frazzled mind told her that she now had a clear target.

She attacked Sally. This time however, she did not use her mallet. In fact, she droped it, opting for tackling the princess to the ground and attempting to strangle her. [dice=6]

It did answer one of Sally's questions though. She was not okay; she was rather emotionally distressed, judging my the tears starting to roll down her face.[rand=2702726918687569757048973849410679164491155049332768947821407984]

[Lans]

[dice=6]

Just before Amy could attempt to grab Sally, there was a blue blur of movement and suddenly something grabbed Amy's hands and pulled her around until she found herself face to face with a pissed looking Sonic. Before she could do or say anthing, she would feel a stinging in her left cheek as Sonic delivered an open handed smack to her.[rand=9183361237919654497576686811976848230390955403217594338432063855]

[AnT]

*STUNNED*

*STUNNED*




*SNAPSHOT*

[Topaz Mutiny]

Suddenly, all of that powerful rage seemed to leave Amy as fast as it had came. Her brain couldn't seem to comprehend what had just happened. Sonic was there. And he...

He slapped her.

Amy suddenly began to feel clammy and cold, far different from what she had been feeling moments before. Her eyes had widened considerably, shining brilliantly from the tears that had now flooded her eyes, but did not fall.

One could sum up her feelings and frozen expression in two words and a period.

Stunned Silence.

[Sipp]

When Metal first threw her over his shoulder, she was too busy being utterly stunned to react. And then, as he began to scold her and walk off...

" ... Put me down!! This is not dignified! Put me down, damnit!!" Of course, her struggling didn't make much of a difference, but that didn't stop her from trying. "It's a little girl! Is she really that terrifying?"

[Jamie Lee]

Metal ignored Az's demands to put her down, glancing back at the scene.

"More than you know."

[Leedzie]

The princess pressed a hand to her breast and felt her racing heart, thoroughly startled by what had just occurred. It'd all happened so abruptly. Sally found herself torn between pity for this girl and extreme frustration. Her instinct was to also have mixed feelings about Sonic actually striking her, but honestly, it appeared to be the only thing that'd actually snap her out of her rage.

Sally released a sigh, this time hanging back from the pink hedgehog rather than attempting to approach and talk. "Thanks, Sonic."

[Garland]

And Eggman stopped what he was doing.

"S-Sonic! How could you?!" He began to walk to the hedgehog, glowering. "No gentleman would strike a lady! Much less in such an undignified manner! If you MUST engage in direct combat, so be it, but do you have to do something so humiliating as slapping her? You should be ashamed!"

Eggman glanced at Amy and frowned. Of his enemies, she was one for whom he fostered little relative respect.

...but she looked so pathetic. And, being a (self-professed, at least) gentleman*, it still had some resonance. She was probably owed an explanation as much as anyone else. And she already got a good whack in, so Eggman got to see what he wanted to at least.

He really didn't want to go through his spiel again though, so he kept it brief.

"Amy. That's not Sonic. Not the one you know, at least. He's... Hmm..." How to keep it simple... "An evil twin."

That would do.

_{((*See the Sonic Heroes manual if you don't believe me!))}

[Lans]

Sonic's glare, which had been on Amy until now, sitched over to Eggman. "Evil twin? As if. If I'm the 'evil' twin, then you should be a kindly old doctor who runs a super high tech hospital that's like the last bastion of decency or something like that."

His gaze shifted back to Amy. "And you. He's right about one thing, I'm not who you think I am. But if I was, attacking someone just because she's my main squeeze instead of you isn't gonna get my attention. In fact, it's more likely to earn you another one of those," he said, pointing to the red mark on her cheek from where he'd slapped her.

"So just chill out, kay? Cause I've seen enough of 'your' blue blur to know that if I don't go for the whole clingy act, he probably don't either."

[Sipp]

She gave up her struggles grudgingly, but looked displeased.

"Where are you taking me? And aside from her colour being an affront to my eyes, how is she dangerous?!"m

[Jamie Lee]

"Evil would be an understatement. And the girl had it coming anyway," Metal muttered to himself.

And then, to Az, "You ask too many useless questions," with that, since she'd stopped struggling and the fight had (for the moment at least) subsided, he somewhat unceremoniously dropped her onto the ground and began to walk back toward Eggman's side.
