Sonic Forces: An All-Out War.

11. Last Confrontations, Part 1.

Spring Yard Town is bustling with activity as Starline, Ruby, and Weiss wait in anticipation for the arrival of their special guests. The previous day's doubts have been replaced by a renewed sense of enthusiasm for their upcoming plans.

Starline: They should be here any minute now.

Ruby: So, these two are personal creations of Dr. Eggman? That's intriguing. Are they like us?

Starline: Not exactly. They are experienced subordinates directly engineered by Eggman. One of them has a long history of encounters with Sonic, Amy, Knuckles, and Tails.

Ruby: Wow, they must be formidable opponents then.

Starline: Indeed. I managed to convince Dr. Eggman to send them to assist us in hindering Sonic and his allies' progress. We'll make good use of their abilities.

Weiss: And what about the other one you mentioned?

Starline: Ah, that would be a fascinating creation. It's a hybrid of Sonic and Shadow's genetic code, powered and enhanced by artificial Chaos Emeralds.

As Starline finishes his explanation, two figures descend from the sky, creating a dramatic entrance accompanied by a cloud of dust and smoke.

Hedgehog: So, you must be the subordinate that Eggman sent us to assist.

Starline: Indeed, you are correct.

As the dust and smoke settle, the identities of their guests become clear. Standing before them is Metal Sonic, a long-time rival of Sonic, and a black hedgehog with deep blue dashes across his quills, furless arms, and gray sneakers, known as Seelkadoom.

Metal Sonic: (glowing red eyes scanning the surroundings) I trust you are well-prepared for our mission.

Starline: Absolutely. We have everything in place and are ready to proceed. Your presence will greatly aid our cause.

Seelkadoom: (smirking) I hope you're not underestimating us. We're here to make an impact.

Ruby: (grinning) We wouldn't have it any other way. Let's show Sonic and his friends what we're capable of.

Weiss: (studying Metal Sonic and Seelkadoom) Just remember, our objective is not just to hinder them but to achieve something greater. We must stay focused on our ultimate goal.

Starline: (nodding) Agreed. Now, let's get to work. Together, we'll prove our worth and bring chaos to Sonic's world.

With determination in their eyes, the team of Starline, Ruby, Weiss, Metal Sonic, and Seelkadoom sets off on their mission.

...

Inside Starline's lab in Labyrinth Zone, the team consisting of Starline, Ruby, Weiss, Metal Sonic, and Seelkadoom enters, finding themselves in a space that pales in comparison to Dr. Eggman's grand facilities.

Starline: Welcome, gentlemen. Make yourselves at home, although it may not be as impressive as what Dr. Eggman possesses.

Seelkadoom: So, what progress have you made thus far?

Ruby: Well, we managed to infiltrate and dismantle the Mobian Resistance, but they regrouped and established a new base. They seem to have tapped into some otherworldly power, making their defenses even more formidable. That barrier of theirs is quite something.

Seelkadoom: Interesting. I already have a few ideas in mind.

Silvia: (appearing unexpectedly) Oh, I wasn't expecting guests.

Starline: Ah, Silvia. It seems we have an increasingly crowded gathering here. How was your visit?

Silvia: About as eventful as your subordinates' experiences. I had the pleasure of encountering Shadow the Hedgehog and his allies. They proved to be slightly more challenging than the others we faced.
