FADE IN:
EXT.
ALLEY
Swift and
Beak is restraining Manic’s arms behind his back who
is sweating over Swift’s knife that’s coming close to his neck.
Vixen and
Rat-Howl stand behind watching and making sure there aren’t any witnesses.
MANIC
(Scared)
Wait a
minute! Wh-y do I h-have to
die?
STAB
Cause,
just recently all of the members are dead zombie creatures.
MANIC
(Nervous)
Yeah but,
ar-aren’t you all ro-robots?
Right as
Stab had the knife touch Manic’s neck, he stops and put his knife away and
Manic let out a sigh-in-relief.
STAB
(Intrigue)
You’re
right kid! We were dead copses just earlier, resting in peace from the thieving
we’ve done years ago, and some fatso came and turn us into robots giving us our
lives back.
MANIC
That must
be Robotnik.
STAB
Indeed!
And once we kill you, the only way for you to come back alive and become a full
member is to become a robot as well. So once we kill you, we’re not going to
bring you to one of those robot-transforming tubes.
MANIC
(Smirking)
So, how would
I become a member?
STAB
Hmm,
you’re going to steal one of those robot-transforming tubes and bring it to us.
We kill you and put in the tube and you’ll become a full fledge member, deal?
Manic’s
smirk faded and Beak and Swift let go of Manic and Stab held out his hand.
ANGLE ON
STAB’S HAND
MANIC
(O/S)
Deal!
Manic
reaches out his hand and shakes Stab’s.
CUT TO:
EXT:
ROBOTROPOLIS STREETS
Sonic and
Sonia are walking towards the camera in the middle of a metallic wasting road.
SONIA
(Worried)
Do you
think that Manic is okay?
SONIC
(Calm)
Chill
sis, I’m sure he’s doing just fine.
SONIA
(Angry)
Sonic,
just how can you be like that?
SONIC
Be like
what?
SONIA
(Angry)
How can
you be like this when our own little brother is being all depressed!
SONIC
You’re
just overreacting! I’m sure he’s getting over it with some stealing.
SONIA
Oh yeah?
Then how come I see him over there down the street hanging with a couple of
robot zombies?
ANGLE
DOWN THE STREET
Sonia
pointed down the street toward Manic and the Deadly Five who seems to be
unaware of the hedgehogs as they walk across the street.
ANGLE ON
HEDGEHOGS
SONIA / SONIC
(Unison)
MANIC!
Both
Sonia and Sonic dash toward Manic, but Sonic grabbed Sonia and hid behind a
garbage can.

SONIA
Sonic,

Shhhhhh!
ANGLE ON
MANIC AND DEADLY FIVE
STAB
You
remember the plan?
MANIC
Yeah! For
me to become a member of the Deadly Five, I have to break into Robotnik’s
castle and steal one of his roboticizer and bring to our hideout. Once there,
you’ll guys will kill me and place into the roboticizer and I’ll become a full
member.
STAB
Correct!
Stab
turns around to face the other members of his group.
STAB
(COND’T)
Okay, as
much as I love sending a kid to his doom, I would like one of you guys to
volunteer to help him on this little mission and steal anything you guys can.
MANIC
(ANGRY)
What?! I
don’t need any babysitter-
VIXEN
I’ll do
it!
Manic’s
expression change as Vixen just appeared in his mind.
MANIC
(Thinking)
All
right! Vixen to hang out with! She’s hot like fox! Mainly cause she is a fox.
Can’t let the others know about this, especially Stab, they kill me and won’t
put me in the roboticizer.
BEAK
Uh, kid,
you okay?
MANIC
Uh, oh
yeah, I am!
STAB
Hun, are
you sure about this?
VIXEN
Don’t
worry about it Stab, I’m sure little Manic here will protect me.
Vixen
made a wink with one of her metallic eyes and Manic let out a blush.
ANGLE
BEHIND GARBAGE CAN
STAB
(O/S)
Okay,
let’s move out people!
Sonic and
Sonia look at each other once they heard them all leave.
SONIA
What are
we going to do?
SONIC
We’re
going to have to stop him, that’s what!
The
camera pans up to above the rooftops to where Queen Aleena and Tails watches
everything.
ALEENA
(Worried)
I’ve
feared that one of my children would’ve been killed by a Deadly Five member,
not become one of them.
TAILS
Soon,
they’ll become the deadly six!
ZOOM IN:
On a
different rooftop, is Sleet and Dingo.
DINGO
Why was
one of the hedgehogs there Sleet?
SLEET
Doesn’t
matter Dingo; the thing is we must track Rat-Howl down in order to get that
treasure!
WIPE TO:
INT.
ROBOTNIK’S PALACE - HALLWAYS
A vent
shaft dropped to the ground and Manic land on his feet
and hands and Vixen leaped to her feet.
MANIC
Hopefully,
the roboticizer that was used on you guys is still in the room where in was
used last. Do you remember where the room was?
VIXEN
(Nodded)
Of
course, it’s right down this hallway.
MANIC
Great! We
should be going now. The SWAT bots-
VIXEN
Don’t
worry about them. When we were awaken, we took them
out easily. So most of those robots in this area are mostly
destroyed.
MANIC
Cool, so
that means we don’t really have try that hard!
SWAT BOT
(O/S)
FREEZE!
ZOOM OUT
Vixen and
Manic turns around and sees a group of five SWAT bots aiming their laser rifles
at them.
VIXEN
I said
‘most of those robots’, not all of them are destroyed.
MANIC
(Nervous)
Heh,
sorry.
WIPE TO:
EXT.
ABANDONED BUILDING
A rotten
away building with craters and rocks watches over the entire area. There, Stab
looks out a hole on the second floor.
INT.
ABANDONED BUILDING
The
wooden floor has large holes in the floor and planks of wood begin to fall in.
Giant spider webs around every corner and dusty old furniture lies around
places. Beak and Rat-Howl are playing a game of poker at an old kitchen table
and Swift lies on a ripped up old couch reading a magazine.
STAB
I wonder
what happened...
Everyone
turn their attention away from what they were doing to their leader.
STAB
(COND’T)
When we
were alive, this city was once beautiful-I admit-and it wasn’t so metal and
metallic. There were more organic things than the computers and technology I
see now.
BEAK
Well,
they did say the future would be more advance.
STAB
It’s not
that, it’s that most of the civilians are robotic creatures. I see those fat
guy’s robots patrolling the city and factories across the land making the sky
fill in a black cloud, I can’t even tell if it’s night or not!
RAT-HOWL
So,
what’s your point? You’re not getting soft on us cause
the world going to heck are yah?
Stab
turns around and makes a smirk and crosses his arms.
STAB
Nah, I’m
just curious as to what happen all these years and wonder how that fat guy did
it.
SWIFT
Whatever
man, hey boss, mind in I go out patrolling?
EVERYONE
(Unison)
WHAT?!
BEAK
You hate
patrolling, what with this change in you?
SWIFT
Oh nothing,
just want to makes us all safe.
RAT-HOWL
Uh-uh,
more like you just want to use those skates of yours again.
SWIFT
Well duh!
With these bad boys, I’m the world’s fastest creature!
SONIC
(O/S)
(Faint,
angry)
WHAT!
Everyone
look up to the ceiling and Stab puts his fingers to his mouth to be quit and
moves his other hand to say pretend they heard nothing.
BEAK
(Bad
acting)
Keep
dreaming spike-head!
Stab
looks up to the ceiling and lift up his hand up and it morphs into a blade.
Sonic and
Sonia are crouched down on the floor that looks almost like the floor below.
Sonia has her hands on Sonic’s mouth and she let him go after hearing Beak’s
comment.
SONIA
(Whispering,
angry)
That was
close! You almost gave away our cover!
SONIC
(Whispering)
Sorry,
but I can’t let some-
SONIA/SONIC
(Unison)
YIKES!
Stabs
metallic hand came smashing upwards from the floor and it begins to crumple and
they fell threw the hole.
INT.
ABANDONED BUILDING - SECOND FLOOR
Sonic and
Sonia in each other arms came crashing right in the center of the floor and the
entire gang stares at them angry.
STAB
Oh, what
do we have here? Pair of lovebirds trying to find a special
hang to make-out?
SONIA/SONIC
(Confuse)
Uh?
Sonia and
Sonic turn to face each other and notice they were in each other’s arms.
SONIA/SONIC
(UNISON)
EWE! GET
OFF!
Sonic and
Sonia crawls away from each other.
ANGLE ON
SONIC
Sonic
stands up and dust off all the dirt off him.
SONIC
Okay,
who’s the wise guy who thinks he’s faster than me?
SWIFT
That
would be ME!
SONIC
Buddy,
you just messed with the wrong hedgehog!
Sonic
began to run in place and his legs began to in a blur.
SWIFT
More like
you don’t know who you’re messing with!
Swift’s
jets on his feet began to fire-up.
Two blurs
of blue sped out of the building and landed on the ground zooming away.
Sonia,
Stab, Beak and Rat-Howl stares at the bigger hole made into the wall.
SONIA
(Pouting)
Him
and his ego.
BEAK
Man they’re
fast!
STAB
Doesn’t
matter, you take care of this girl.
BEAK
On it!
Beak
approach Sonia who performs a back flips and gets into a fighting stance.
SONIA
Just try
me birdbrain!
STAB
Rat–Howl,
we’re taking our leave now!
RAT-HOWL
Sure boss
DISSOLVE
TO:
INT.
ROBOTNIK’S PALACE-HALLWAYS
The last
SWAT bot fell to the ground and Manic and Vixen walks over it.
MANIC
Um, sorry
we had to fight over the SWAT bots.
VIXEN
Don’t
worry about it, I mean this job would have been boring if we didn’t had some fun. Okay, here we are!
Vixen and
Manic walks towards a metallic door. When the two thieves approach, the doors
automatically slides open and a huge surprise look came on Manic’s face.
MANIC
(Surprised)
What are
you doing in here?
ANGLE ON
ROBOTNIK
Robotnik
is still tied up and to the ceiling and is fuming mad.
ROBOTNIK
(Angry)
Ask her!
ANGLE ON
VIXEN
VIXEN
Stab was
about to kill him, but we remembered he was the reason to revive us, so we let
him lived, no biggie. You don’t mind, do you?
MANIC
Mind? I love it! I hate the guy!
ROBOTNIK
Would you
two shut up and take me down now?
Manic and
Vixen look at each other and made a grin.
MANIC/VIXEN
(Unison)
NAH!
ROBOTNIK
AURGH!
VIXEN
Anyway
kid, there’s the roboticizer!
Vixen
points to one of the tubes and the both of them approach it, Vixen stares at
Manic and lifts up a dagger.
VIXEN
(COND’T)
It’s a
bit heavy to carry back to the hideout unnoticed and it’ll slow us down, so I’ll
kill you here. This may hurt, but hold still!
ROBOTNIK
Hah, even
when you are not in my control, you’re doing my work for me!
MANIC
For your
information Robotnik, once Vixen kills me, she’ll put me in the roboticizer and
become a zombie-robot like her!
ZOOM IN
ON VIXEN
VIXEN
(Sadden)
Yeah... like
me.
CUT TO:
EXT.
ABANDONED BUILDING
Stab
stands on top of a building and his brown cloak is floating in the wind.
STAB’S
P.O.V.
Two blurs
of blue race across the deserted roads tackling each other and continue
speeding on the road.
STAB
(O/S)
Hmmm, I
can’t even tell which one is Swift anymore.
Stab
turns around to near the building to see Sonia and Beak fighting. Beak lies
into the sky and launches missile attacks but Sonia doges them all and ran to
Beak and kick him in the chest.
ANGLE ON
STAB
STAB
Hmm, the
girl got skills.
RAT-HOWL
(O/S)
(Angry)
You’ve
should have had me deal with her!
Stab
turns around to see Rat-Howl sharpening his blade with an angry look on his
face.
STAB
Doesn’t
matter now, Beak may have a hard time with her, but I’m sure she can defeat the
pink hedgehog. I couldn’t stop Swift before her ran to fight or race the blue
one.
RAT-HOWL
I don’t
care, I just want to have some fun and get into a fight! I haven’t kill anything organic in years! YEARGH---!
Suddenly
beams of light came from below Rat-Howl and an explosion cause
a hole and Rat-Howl fell in. Stab walks toward the hole and looks down the hole
to see darkness.
STAB
Look like
you got your wish, now to see how the fight going-argh!
A foot
came and kick Stab in the face and he rolled on the ground.
STAB
(Angry)
Okay, who
did that!
VOICE
(O/S)
I did!
STAB
P.O.V.
A purple
hedgehog wearing a robe appeared and beside her is a two-tailed fox. A green
scanner appears over Stab’s vision and a cursor appear
on the Aleena and a picture of her as a child appeared. Then child red letters
flash saying ‘MATCH!”
ANGLE ON
EVERYONE
STAB
Haha, Princess Aleena, or should I say
Queen Aleena or is it Aleena now?
Queen
Aleena only made a sour face at Stab’s comments.
ALEENA
Just
because Robotnik rules over Mobius now, doesn’t mean I’m not queen.
STAB
Whatever,
so who’s the squirt?
TAILS
(Angry,
nervous)
The names
Miles, and don’t you dare call me squirt!
STAB
Hmm, find
then I’ll just call you Tails, you little freak.
TAILS
Hey, only
my friends can call me Tails!
ALEENA
This
isn’t the time Tails!
STAB
I agree!
Stab
unsheathes a sword from his cape and points it towards Aleena and Tails.
STAB
(COND’T)
The both
of you should have come more prepared, He-Yeargh!
Stab ran
towards Aleena with his sword in the air and the Queen blocked it with a pipe.
ALEENA
(Struggling)
Ugh, I’m
not the same little girl from years ago!
STAB
(Struggling)
So I see!
Stab tries
to low-kick Aleena, but she leaps into the air and get
some distance between her and Stab.
