Unfortunately for Saul...it WASN'T Talon's RV, and instead he ended up knocking on the RV door of a VERY irate Redneck in a coonskin cap.
MEANWHILE:
Talon was admiring himself in the mirror, wearing his female Black Arms suit, when a figure stepped into the doorway. Talon turned, suddenly aware and aghast that he had been discovered in a rather akward situation.
This was not the first time Eri had seemingly caught the doctor at an inopportune moment. In fact, every last one of their meetings had started similar to this one. "Still playing dress up, doctor?"
"Oh. It's you." Talon cocked a brow. "Finally decided to cave in regarding the cloning experiment?"
"Grrr, no, one's plenty." Eri growled. "I came in regards to an enemy of mine. One who escaped my planned...ehm..well...actually I was planning a GIFT for you, yes."
Talon's eyes sparkled. "Really? And just who is this enemy?"
"Sonic the Hedgehog." Eri watched as Talon's face went blank and got paler. "I managed to freeze him and Tails onto blocks of ice but...well they managed to have outside help, and Sonic was defrosted. During the confrontation, I was outnumbered 5 to 1," A small stretch, but indeed there were five people in the room at the time. (Scythe, Zizzle, Tails, Sonic and Metal)
Talon walked to the opposite wall and scratched off "freezing" from his potential plans to get Sonic. "So there were no successes then?"
"Actually, quite the contrary! I managed to injure Sonic rather severely, and did my part to corrupt the mind of one of his allies. Still, they are alive and looking for me. And I thought I might pay a visit for some support."
Talon sat down and stroked his chin frills. "Hmmm...You want Sonic out of the way, I want Sonic out of the way...but neither of us can do it alone...Still, I have a number of operations happening here right now. An alien to study, a concert to ruin, and woman to kidnap. Yes. Though it would be prudent to get rid of Sonic, but he has a good amount of support it seems...."
Eri then said rather offhandedly, "Bah. Without the goodly people behind him, cheering him on, he'd be nothing."
Then a light bulb clicked on right above Talon's head. "I have a BRILLIANT idea! With that concert of Magenta's being broadcasted nationally, we're on the verge of the biggest brainwashing EVER!" Talon began typing in something in his computer. "I was going to rewire the sound systems for sure. If I can just merge a hypnotic suggestion that Sonic is the enemy, by the end of Magenta's first song, every last one of those mindless non-playable humans will think Sonic is the ENEMY!"
"Indeed....well, I had rather hoped of taking him out myself..and thought you could supply some assistance."
"I wish I could, but my travelling supplies are rather low. I was heading back to Recluse Island for supplies. I suppose I COULD drop-ship a battle armor for you by remote command. But it'd have to be in the Mystic Ruins. But then again...if we're brainwashing people in the Mystic Ruins, you can be a perfect distraction until the process is complete. Then when he's weak, his fans can finish him off! OH the cruel irony!"
Eri always hated how Talon could be so idiotic, and yet still come up with the cruelest plans. It was never just about the destruction, but also the heartache and cleanup afterwards. You could always tell Talon's handiwork if the people ended up sorting through an abominable mess after the catastrophe. Still, this was not the only reason Eri came here. He still had to keep his promise to Eggman. "That would be fine. An armor would be excellent! Speaking of Recluse Island Doctor...mind if I pay a visit? I need to lay low for a while."
"Well Eri, if it weren't for you I'd have never unraveled the mystery of the Armor of Arasod, and since recruited Isis. (She's magnificent!) I owe you more favors that I care to count. Always, mi casa es su casa."
Too easy. Just get into the Island the easy way, wait until Eggman is ready, and then open the door. A trojan spurious. And he'd get to take down Sonic, get his island, and walk away from it all. Win or lose the battle, Eri had already won the war. "Very good then doctor. I'll go find the place where I have the greatest combat advantage then. I'm sure you know where that is. You send the message to the hedgehog. He'll come."
"Excellent! Yes, the Mystic Ruins arena. A deep pit close to the lost world temple. Spikes and flamethrowers all over the place, yes. This will be our crowning achievement. Thank you for your help, yet again! You're always in my good book!"
"Yes." Eri turned to leave. "Oh and by the way...thats a good look for you." And then dashed off for the Lost World Arena.
