Eclipse! Status update my prince! How's the conquering of the new universe going?

"There seems to have been a miiiinor issue!" Eclipse, running off with Sonic and Metal, loudly exclaimed. "They still don't want to bow to my will and we are now on the run from this universe's rogue civilians! Why can't they just understand that resistance is futile?!"

"I don't think you're in any position to be saying that right now..."

"Shut up, Metal."

[boombrothersasks]

Hey Shadow, is it true you stole Sonic's door

“…And so what if I did? It’s Sonic, he probably deserved it.”

[boombrothersasks]

I heard there's a stone called the Warp Topaz, which can aid in dimensional travel...

Anyone has a geologist on hand?

”Warp topaz…? The name sounds familiar…but I’ve never heard of it,” Shadow concluded after some brief thinking. “If it can aid in getting me to this other dimension, I’ll just have to find it. And if anyone attempts to get in my way or interfere with anything MORE, this time I’m really leaving.”

[boombrothersasks]

Hey Shadow, there's a movie about you coming out in a couple days. How do you feel about that?

"I feel like its about time. Yet I feel...watched. Who is obtaining this footage? Why are they obtaining this footage? What do I even do with this information??"

[boombrothersasks]

Hey Scourge! What's your favorite thing to do in the snow?

"I just get a bunch, turn it into balls and THROW 'EM AT PEOPLE!! I'm basically undefeated and-QUIT DISTRACTING ME I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!!"

"Everyone is already gone anyway." The Knuckles counterpart pointed out the lack of any blue hedgehogs, or weird lizard things.

"WHAT DO YA MEAN-"

...

"Crap. Well now we gotta find 'em I mean. We did say fight the fake. And now he and the rest of those creeps are running around on MY ISLAND!!"

[boombrothersasks]

*GASP* WE'VE BEEN STUCK IN A TEMPORARAL ANOMALY!!! QUICK, HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN???

*ahem* Anyway. Scourge! Do you celebrate Christmas in your world? Do you have anyone you're going to give presents to?

"Temporal...Christmas?? What kinda nonsense are ya talking about? I'm not giving anything to anybody!"

"Some mortal holiday where a guy gets to break into your house and leave stuff. The first one I experienced was....eventful. I don't fully understand it either," Eclipse interrupted. "BUT! My gift to myself this time will be your dimension! So could we possibly get back to that? I was threatening all of you."

"And I was about to blow these fakes to bits, no one cares what you have to say."

The darkling huffed, before speaking to himself.

"You'll be the first in my personal pit of hatred when I rule this place..."

[boombrothersasks]

Don't shoot the messenger! Don't shoot the messenger!

"If only I had the time..."

"How do I get to this 'lothesome lookalike dimension' you're talking about?"

[boombrothersasks]

*pokes head in the cave*

Apologies for the intrusion, Shadow, but the loathsome lookalike trio (Sonic, Eclipse, Metal) somehow wound themselves into some whole loathsome lookalike dimension, and I don't feel up to filing grievous wounds certificates..

Mind checking on them? Thanks, you're the best!

"...."

"What."

[boombrothersasks]

Hmmmmm... Hmmmmmm... Hey Tails, who do you think could be turned into a toddler next?

.

.

We had Sonic, Shadow, Eclipse... It really seems like everybody turns into a baby these days...

.

.

By the way, who do you think should never be babyfied around here?

"No one. And I repeat. NO ONE. Should be turned into a toddler. Anymore. That is no longer an option. You have lost your babyfication privileges forever. Every single one of you. We are NOT doing this again!! I'LL DESTROY THE MACHINE IF I HAVE TO. HOW IS THIS EVEN HAPPENING ANYMORE. LEAVE THE BABIES BE, I BEG OF YOU."

He sighed.

"...Besides, everyone's been gone recently. I still can't find Sonic, and now Eclipse is missing too. Kind of have to wonder how Shadow's taking it..."

"Knowing him and Eclipse, he's probably loving all the quiet time."

[boombrothersasks]

Just caught up... So Scourge, since we're on your world now, is there any Amy wanting to crush you with her hammer? How would she feel about two hedgehogs that look a lot like you but blue?

"My world...? I mean, yeah, ya could say this world does belong to me. Good on you for acknowledging that, I guess. But don't summon her. She's the bossiest and craziest there ever was, I'm telling ya..."

"...Hold on. TWO BLUE FAKES?!?! WHAT D'YOU MEAN TWO?!" Scourge began shouting again.

"We're having the same problem on that one man." Sonic cut in, still sounding deadpan.

"You know where this guy is?"

"That's for me to know, and you to get irrationally angry over for some reason."

"CAN WE JUST BLOW HIM UP ALREADY!?' Someone who looked weirdly like the Knuckles Sonic knew shouted within the group of people surrounding him. "He talks too much. Getting on my nerves. He's worse than Scourge."

"Excuse-"

"Let's just crush. EVERYONE. For good measure!!"

"She's here. That's great. See what ya did?" Scourge grumbled.

"SCOURGE THE HEDGEHOG, RULER OF THIS DIMENSION, I'VE COME TO FIND AND TO CHALLENGE YOU-"

All eyes were on him and Metal after they stood. Including Sonic's.

"Eclipse when I tell you this was the worst possible time..." the blue hedgehog muttered.

"ITS A LIZARD THINGGGGGG," the Amy counterpart already had her hammer at the ready. "KILL IT."

"Is that any way to treat your new ruler of worlds and dimensions beyond all comprehension?"

[boombrothersasks]

Think these guys will listen to diplomacy, my princes? Plan B is a good old "pummel 'em"

"Yeah no we're probably going to have to get 'em if Sonic doesn't first."

"Or the other guy. I can dream."

[boombrothersasks]

LOOK OUT MY PRINCE!!! THERE'S EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY TONIGHT!!!

After crossing through the portal along with the others, Eclipse looked back.

"Explosions in the sky...? What's that supposed to-"

*BOOM. POW. VARIOUS EXPLOSION NOISES.*

Eclipse jumped at the sound, cowering behind Sonic. He quickly stopped this, though, not wanting to look like a fool in front of anyone.

"Oh yeahh...forgot that was today."

"...Forgot what was today?" Eclipse turned to Sonic. Clearly, he was trying his hardest to keep his composure. Sonic could tell, but decided not to bring it up.

"Some celebration of when the island became...the island. But with people on it and stuff. We like to blow things up when the day comes, looks like this other dimension does too."

"Why...?"

A short pause.

"Its...uh...because its fun? They're called fireworks."

"They look more like explosives to me," Metal cut in, looking up at the sky. "Or maybe I just don't know what a firework looks like, I dunno."

"Would explain how messed up this place looks...jeez."

Sonic had been right on that one. It looked nearly the same as the hedgehog village they knew. Would have been a mirror image, in fact, if not for everything looking very desolate, yet wrecked.

"Well whatever it is, I don't like it," Eclipse huffed. "NOT THAT IM SCARED OF IT...its just annoying."

"Really? Thought you of all people would love an excuse just to blow things up on purpose. And legally." Sonic shot him a look.

"Don't question me, we have work to do! If I'm going to govern this island, I'll need to confront its ruler first."

"What about Scourge Quest...?"

"We'll get to that too, Metal, but UNTIL THEN-! ...Where's Sonic."

Whilst looking around, both Eclipse and Metal could hear something in the distance...it sounded like multiple people, what were they saying...?

Following the sounds, the two hid in rather conveniently placed bushes to be able to safely watch what they were seeing. A group of people, all standing around, while only one stood higher than the rest atop a box. The best way to describe him was...Sonic...but green? How many more Sonic's could there possibly be?

"FIGHT THE FAKE!!"

"I didn't even WANT a fight, I was LITERALLY just passing through." Sonic complained, though now trapped in a circle of people. The green Sonic jumped down.

"Too bad, knockoff. Case ya couldn't tell yet, this is my island. Which means you gotta get out."

So he's the ruler...! Eclipse thought to himself. And here I thought this would be somewhat difficult. Pfft.

"That's what I was trying to do. Do you seriously do this to any guy who comes by with the same quill-cut as you?? Look a little closer. Great example : you have a stupid jacket, I don't, see the difference? Kind of an embarrassing look for you, won't lie-"

"SHUT UP!! You interrupted our exploding of things! AND you called my jacket stupid! Now you gotta pay TIMES THREE!!"

"I hope they burn him."

"Metal."

[boombrothersasks]

*waits until the smalls are out of earshot*

You know Ivo, I might owe you an apology.

I don't know how I would have turned out if my grandpa were, as Shadow and Eclipse seem to imply, a monsterfu-

"WE DON'T TALK ABOUT THAT PART OF THE FAMILY HISTORY."

[boombrothersasks]

I was going to be adult supervision (as in, look(visor) from above (super), so looking like the referee for a tennis match), but it seems my time will be better spent rifling through Ivo's things for joint ointment. One Sonic DID just grow a lot in an instant, and regular puberty-enhanced growth is painful by itself.

Have fun in the portal, look out for dimension hopping cats and pirates!

Also the day Ivo gains common sense is going to be interesting. Maybe he'll gain a notion of parenting!

"Cats and pirates...? I don't think we have those around here," Eclipse responded. "We have paranoid badgers, brain chips, mini cakes that make you big and small and can change your quills and can turn you into a baby, and voices in the sky that claim to control us all. But one thing we DON'T have is dimension hopping cats and pirates. Probably."

[boombrothersasks]

also bim bam boom, Sonic is normal again

"......Yeah, this feels like a normal place for me to randomly end up." Sonic, laying on the ground, simply stated.

"Oh great, now there's three full grown rats invading my personal space."

"Oh good, the magic words did the thing again. Come on Sonic! We're trying to find a portal that leads to a mirror dimension with a Scourge in it. Chop chop guys, lets get back to it! I have big plans! None of which currently involve Scourge! Also Metal Sonic isn't a robot anymore...? AIN'T THAT RIGHT METAL?"

"I am about to destroy every weak, feeble bone in his body. Look at him, the pure waves of superiority emitting from him make me sick. Disgusting."

"I'm literally just laying here on the ground." Sonic replied in a rather monotonous tone.

"Yeah. Thats the problem. Dumb blue rat."

"You're also a 'dumb blue rat' right now. Any insult you throw at me goes for you toooooo~"

"THE PORTAL."

[boombrothersasks]

Hey Eclipse if you defeat the mayor of Hedgehog village, you become the new mayor by default!

"THATS how that works?! We really need a new governing system around here-BUT!! THAT IS GREAT TO KNOW. What if I beat up BOTH mayors in BOTH dimensions? Does that make me the new ruler of both islands in both dimensions? I could conquer across WORLDS! UNIVERSES! AND ALL I HAVE TO DO IS DEFEAT THE MAYOR EVERY SINGLE TIME! ITS TOO PERFECT!"

"Uh, yeah, how about helping first?" Metal interrupted with a glare.

"I'm in the middle of trying to make my father love me again, little Sonic is doing pretty well," He gestured over to Sonic, who seemed to have just re-learned his spindash ability and was wildly bouncing around all over the place. "Probably just comes natural to him by this point. Makes you wonder how often he comes just to terrorize the state of what's basically the doc's house."

"I CAN DO IT BETTER THAN THE BABY."

"YOU'RE NOT DOING ANYTHING, METAL," Eggman was now able to be heard. "YOU ARE GOING TO COME BACK, RETURN TO BEING MY TOTALLY NOT ROBOT SON, AND-can you please tell the lizard to stop stomping on everything."

"You'll bow to me soon."

"What."

[boombrothersasks]

Maybe when things calm down you can get some kids of your own, my prince?

No, wait, that sounds like a bad idea

How ‘bout you look at chaos, or wisps? They’re much less fragile

"I don't know what chao or wisp are. But if none of them can cause a giant explosion in my name as we make our grand escape then I kind of don't want it?? THAT would be pretty cool to have right now. Not to say I can't cause severe property damage just fine on my own...see this lamp? I'M GONNA KNOCK IT OVER!!"

The lamp had then proceeded to be kicked, a short laugh following.
