Shore...a land right at the edge of a body of water...mostly salt water, AKA: ocean. This type of beach isn't public; in fact not a lot of people knows about it since its very remote. And that's the spot where the two old robots needs to be. With a motorcycle they stole, Scratch and Grounder arrived at a beach. Thanks to Robo-Knuckles' directions, they finally will be able to report back to Dr. Robotnik. Course, in return, they had to help the battered Metallix back to the base, which he should be sitting on the trolley seat of the bike. "So Dr. Robotnik's new base is in the ocean? Gee, must be hard to get the groceries there." said Grounder, looking a little puzzled. Mounting off the motorcycle, Scratch looked at the robotic Knuckles. "Okay, buddy; now how do we get there through all that water?"

"Well..." RK replied as he did an internal systems check to see if his engine was still capable of flight, "Either I fly us out there, or we get a boat. Give me a second, bolt brains..." He locked the coordinates of Eggman's undersea base and noted that his engine, while functional, was not capable of toting two incompetents along for the ride. He glanced over at the two of them and said, "We need a boat. Make it a luxurious one, too. You see my friends... I enjoy the finer things in life... like a pontunte with Satallite TV and a slushie machine. That one over there should do..." The red titan pointed casually, with his good hand, at a nearby private boat. He managed to stand and began walking towards said pontune, looking back at his new allies, "Coming?"

*ZooooOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOMMM* If he was quick enough, RK probably would've notice the two dumb-bots raced off for the boat, leaving a dust cloud to eat up RK. "Oh boy! I hope it has a hot tub!"
"If it does, I call dibs, Grounder!"
"No way! I suggested it first!!!"
"Well I said dibs first!"
"Did not!"

RK blinked and his eyes narrowed when they left him in the dust. He muttered something about Eggman likely using them for parts when they returned, and staggered forward, towards the pontune. When he manned the vessel, he let one of his gauntlet claws appear and he snipped the rope keeping it ashore. He then went to the navigation system and input the coordinates for Eggman's base. With a disgruntled vroom, the boat's engines came to life and the vessel took off towards the base. RK then went under the deck and flipped on the TV, and went to making a watermelon smoothie. "This is going to be a long sail..." he said aloud as he sat down watching 'NiGHTS of our lives', sipping his watermelon smoothie.

He could probably he some splashing and fighting out where he is, as well as random bickering.

He rolled his eyes, and yelled out to the dumb bots, "WOULD YOU KEEP IT DOWN?! REALA IS CONFESSING HIS LOVE FOR CLARIS!! I DO NOT WANNA MISS THIS!!"

There was a sudden THUD on the boat, though it did not sound like the two dingbots fighting. Along with it came a new robotic signal.

RK was already atop the vessel, but... something felt familiar about this signal. He leaned over the side of the boat and said dull-like in fashion "It can't be..."

"THE FOX BRAT!!!!" Launching off the hot tub, Scratch and Grounder stood ready for battle against 'Tails'!...Though Grounder somehow wore a towel around his waste and head the moment he jumped out. But...then...they noticed something about the 'Fox-Brat'... THE EYES!!!!!! "S-Scratch! I d-d-don't think that's the Fox-Brat!" "Ba-KAW!!!!" and he leaped into Grounder's arms. Cower like school girls, they began to.

There were two things in the universe that The Red Titan feared: 1) Inflation and 2) A totalitarian government where one entity ruled all.... The Tails doll was not one of RK's worries. He quickly grabbed the hellish plush figure, and cuddled it saying, "BROTHER! YOU LIVE!" His attention then turned to the capture-droid with said mongoose inside. He put the TD down and pointed to Mina, asking "What's with the meatbag?"

Tails Doll stared at Scratch and Grounder placidly for a while, until he was grabbed and hugged by his rather eccentric bretheren. Despite not having a mouth, as well as having souless-looking eyes, the Tails Doll seemed a bit... confused at Robo Knuckles' reaction. Perhaps he had been shunned as well. <The organic is in possession of a Chaos Emerald.> the demon doll transmitted, <Since it is stored in hammerspace, there was no other choice but to bring the mongoose along as well. These will please Master Eggman greatly, will they not?> Pause. <You have not been recorded in my databanks for several years.> For Tails Doll, that was probably as close to a 'Hey, good to see you!' as Robo Knux could get from him.

Somehow, the two bots peaked from behind Robo Knuckles like crazy cartoon characters. Noticing how RK hugged him and called him brother, it could mean that this creepy thing was made by Dr. Robotnik. Though why this copy of the Fox-Brat was made like some plush toy instead of a robot, puzzled them. Being robots, they too were able to understand Doll's communication signal. "A Chaos Emerald?!?" Grounder cried with shock and awe. Scratch craned his large neck over to Mina's floating body. "How did this teeny-booper get one from the stupid Special Zone? Fished for it? Ba-Ha-hur-HAAA!"

The Red Titan paused a moment when he heard <Chaos Emerald> and it looked as though for a moment, he was surprised. If he had a mouth, he would have grinned as he said, "Yes, this will please Master Eggman, quite much. Well done, little bro. And, it's good to see you too." He then seemed to get a more annoyed look on his robotic expression as he said to the Tails Doll, "These two spare anchors are Scratch and Grounder. They need to see the master. They have aided me in ah.. relieving the owner of this floating mansion for the trip so, I have granted them permission. Come inside, would you like a watermelon smoothie?" he said as he escorted the demonic plush doll through the cabin.

Ah, so THAT was why the two unknown robots were onboard the ship. They still seemed to possess no threat whatsoever, and so the Tails Doll continued to ignore them. He floated on after RK, though paused as he was offered a watermelon smoothie. The Doll sifted through its databanks of information. The last it recalled, such a thing that RK had offered him was something organics consumed to keep their feeble lives running... somewhat akin to electricity, Chaos Emeralds, or oil. But why would Robo Knux offer him something that was incompatable with his form? Perhaps his 'brother', as RK kept refering to him as well, had melted a wire somewhere. <I lack the need for a smoothie.> Tails Doll politely declined. It also asked, <According to my internal map, there are no islands in the vicinity capable of holding one of Eggman's bases. Where is the new base's location?>

Meanwhile, Grounder stared at the floating mongoose body like he was in an aquarium. When reached in...the force field the robot above produced blasted Grounder away. "AACK!!" The chicken bot groaned as he watched his dopey brother fly into the hot spa. "Nice job, lug-nut!" Climbing out, the soaked robot glared at his brother. "Well...she has an emerald!" "I know that! Aaaand, I figured something. What if WE take the emerald and give it to Dr. Robotnik? We'll get the credit instead of Zombie-Fox Brat there! Ba-HA-hur-HAAA!" "I was thinking that first!!" Grounder whined. But he took a second to think (?!) "But uh...how are we gonna do that?" "Give me a moment." he rather wait until they reach the base. He doesn't want another Knuckles jabbing his fists on them...even if he is a robotic copycat. Maybe Robotnik's base has a closet somewhere they can stuff Tails Doll in.

The Red Titan glanced back at the floating plushie and said, "His current base is at the sea floor, hidden from the public eye. We will be arriving shortly." He sat down on the sofa and continued watching NiGHTS of our lives, and sipped on his smoothie. "You should have that droid bring the prisoner in here so we can keep an eye on her. If the coast guard rolls by, they might find it a tad odd that there is an Eggman robot carrying a small mongoose escorting a luxury ship." That being said, he kicked up his feet and continued watching.

The Tails Doll cocked its head in puzzlement at the mentioning of the whereabouts of the new base. It was ingenius, and most definately difficult to get to for a certain blue spiny creature and his two-tailed companion. Even so, it was rather suprising to learn that it was UNDER THE SEEEAAAA the ocean. The Tails Doll then took RK's advice, calling to the robot to come to him. The capture droid responded immediately, and floated in to where it was visible in the doorway, mongoose inside.

Scratch snapped his winged fingers. Yup, they'll just have to wait until they get to the base. "Are we there yet??" Grounder whined, loudly.

An empty smoothie cup flew into Grounder's head. "Pike down out there, or we'll put you in the cooler! I'll let you know when we arrive. Any time now." A few minutes later the GPS on the boat beeped at the passengers, and RK stood up. He walked to the edge of the water and his non-existant lips formed a smile. After sending a few signals, a vortex opened in the water, granting the crew access to Eggman's undersea base. RK looked at his crewmates, pulled out a cigar and said, "Smoke 'em if you got 'em. Let's go home." Inwardly the murderous machine was relieved to be here. The beating that his fleshy doppleganger so kindly provided him was beginning to put a serious drain on his systems. He desperately needed repairs. His engines whined to life and struggled to carry him down to the entrance where once inside he immediately called for a repair team. He turned to his brother, and said, "Take the prisoner someplace secure. I trust you more that the Attention Deficit Droids over there." He put his good hand on the Doll's shoulder...area and said, "Well done." With that, the repair crew wheeled him away to the repair room, ONCE AGAIN, and he sent a message to Dr. Eggman before entering stasis. Message: This is unit Metal Knuckles, reporting to Dr. Eggman. Unit Tails Doll has been recovered, and along with him he brought a Chaos Emerald toting mongoose. I have also brought on board two strange robots who claim to be property of a Dr. Robotnik. They aided me in escaping the police, normally an unnecessary gesture, but an encounter with Knuckles has left me in a state of disrepair. I will be in stasis because of this, where I will await further orders. Metal Knuckles, out.

And the creepy floaty doll-thing followed the murderous machine down to the new (to him anyway) base. It tapped into the mainframe, and downloaded an internal map of the base. The Doll studied the map for a while, before finding a place suitable for hiding the organic, as well as guarding it, for after all, any prisoner cell could be handeled by any Eggman Robot, even the two animal-esque robots that had come along. And so the Tails Doll floated down corridor after corridor, the capture droid obediently following, until the demonic doll winded up outside of what appeared to be an old storage area. It seemed perfect, and as Tails Doll opened the door, it viewed a computer, recharge station, and bits of junk everywhere in the room. Scratch and Grounder would probably never find the girl, which was a good thing. For if RK did not trust them, then it would be a wise decision on the Doll's behalf to not trust them as well. In regards to the last thing RK had said to him... it seemed to procure an anomaly within his programming. Not wasting time to analyse what exactly it was, the Doll deleted the function. And thus the door to its hiding place shut. It kind of felt like... home.

Little did Tails Doll know, Grounder's nose, the parts of his drill nose, can be used as a tracking signal, and Scratch took the small tip of his nose to place it in the capture droid. Yeah...they're smarter in this version...not smart enough, but still... Lucky for Tails Doll, the two bots are at awe at the aquatic designed base. The dock room where the cruise ship is kept was, obviously, incredibly huge; the dome ceiling looked like it was made out of glass, so you can see the ocean above, but knowing Eggman, it was made out of material strong as steel. Scratch and Grounder noticed a lot of egg-shaped red bots, the Egg-Pawns, wander by in random directions, but recoqnized them they did not. They were used to the Eggrobos that Robotnik used. Thet wondered what happened to them. Yes, they still haven't realized that six years has passed since they were in stasis-lock, so things have changed alot. "Awww!" Scratch whined. "What?" "Dr. Robotnik isn't home." he was quite dissipointed when he downloaded the information of the base so they'll know where to go. "Aww, that sucks! So...what do we do now?" "Hmm..." he pondered in his pea-brained processing program... "Ah! TO THE KITCHEN!!!" "YAY!!!" And in a speed that could make the Road Runner jealous, that blasted through the base, knocking down any Egg-Pawn that got in their way. And stopping at the large automatic doors of the kitchen, the bots gawked at the classy taste of the room. "OoooOOOOOOOooo!!"

Footsteps sounded in the hall behind them. "Unknown units, state your designations and affiliation," said a voice, comming from a fammiliar looking silliuette standing behind them, the only things visible in the dim light of the hall being a pair of green eyes.m

One look at the mysterious but familiar figure... "SONIC!!!!!"And they stood ready for action. Scratch stanced in a wacky kung-fu pose, while Grounder unleashed weaponry known to all cartoon men.

There was a crackle of electricity as Silver's arms switched over to electro-claw mode and he stepped forward. "I am not Sonic the Hedgehog. I repeat, state your designations and affiliation, or prepare to be forcibly removed from these premises."

Finally coming to light, Scratch and Grounder noticed the robotic armor on 'Sonic'. "Gee! Did you catch a fever or something, Sonic?" asked Grounder. "That's not Sonic! It another one of those robo-look-a-likes." Scratch was starting to get sick of these things. But then again, this one looked familiar. It kinda looked like the one Robotnik used to slow Sonic down in Sky Sanctuary. "Heeey, easy buddy! We're Dr. Robotnik's!" "Yeah! Isn't it a free base for a couple of Badniks?"

Meanwhile in the repair room, Eggpawns had swarmed The Red Titan working with as much haste as possible to repair his damaged frame. His functional eye lit up and he asked one of the Eggpawns, "Do you have a time estimate for my repairs?" The Eggpawn stood there for a moment, probably calculating some numbers and then said, "At current rate of repair, 3 hours Unit Metal Knuckles." The red robot nodded slightly, and sent out a com-link throughout the base. He had forgotten something that might put two bolt-brains in a decent amount of danger. While normally, the angry robotic anteater would have let the Eggpawns and whatever else came across them have at it, he was a robot of his word. Therefore he spoke through the com to all available intercoms in the base at the time, "This is unit Metal Knuckles. For the time being I have granted base authorization to two robots who would not appear to fit in here. They identify themselves as Scratch and Grounder, one designed like a chicken the other like... something else. Do not harm them until Dr. Eggman has seen them and gives orders on what to do with them. However, should any of you detect them committing acts that are harmful to the base or the Doctor's plans, this order is to be overridden and they are to be terminated. Currently, I am in the repair bay. Should anything happen which requires my activation, I will be in stasis here for the next three hours. Metal Knuckles, out." That being said, he inwardly sighed (?) as he flashed an image of Rouge in the shower across his optical sensors. "Ahh... now for a sweeeeet dream. Eggpawns, do your best work on my paint coat... I have plans.. for a certain big-boobed bat. Dinner plans... If possible, give me a mouth. That is all." The red robot's optic light fizzled out and the slight hum emitting from his body went silent as RK fell into stasis.

"That's us!" Scratch proudly answered, stepping on Grounder. "I'm Scratch, leader of the SSSSS Squad, and this is my dopey sidekick, Grounder. Ba-Ha-hur-HAAAA!!" "No way! YOU'RE the sidekick!" the green one batted the tall one away. But Scratch stepped on him again; harder this time. Now that he got a good look at Silver, and scanned his code, he remembered sensing a code just like his; a code that woke them up in the Death Egg. "Heeey...were you snooping around in the Death Egg, cuz I think YOU'RE the one who woke us up!"
