ARK: Robotnik Legacy

[Alien-Child]

"Dollface?!" Madonna snorted, "You wanna start something honey?"

[YolkaEd]

"Hardly. You're barely worth my time or effort." At that point, the figure soared down from the ceiling...



...landing neatly in front of the four individuals, chuckling a touch. "Calm down, boys; I come in peace."

[AnT]

Didn't give Metal Sonic any comfort, as he attracted his claws, ready to kill.

"And give me one reason why we should before Metal turns you into paper shreds." he growled. "Who are you? How did you even get here?"

[Alien-Child]

Looking down at Rouge, Madonna groaned. "Great, another fuzzball!" Glancing back at the back, this time at her chest. "And this one thinks she can compete with ME?! Meh, mine are still bigger."

[YolkaEd]

She scoffed. "Yeah, try talking without five pounds of silicon, dollface."

With that insult out of the way, she gave the doctor a brief salute and kept smirking. "As for me, you can call me Rouge. I'm a jewel thief by trade, and I specialize in high-risk, high-reward items... like those emeralds you seem to require?"

[AnT]

"...." He frowned, not sure what to make of this woman, or why she was here.

[Alien-Child]

"I'll have you know these babies are the genuine article!" Madonna huffed.

[YolkaEd]

"Genuine plastic, more like." she huffed, before she leant back and gave Eggman a nod. "As luck would have it, I know the location of one of these gems you're looking for... oh, but I doubt you could get it, it's really well-hidden."

[AnT]

"Oh?" he hummed, finding that as a challenge called to him.

[Alien-Child]

"Like that'll stop him?" Madonna rolled her eyes, filing her nails again.

[YolkaEd]

"Probably not, but he'll just waste valuable resources." At that point, Rouge chuckled. "You see... the ones who have that emerald are GUN."

[AnT]

"Argh!" he snarled, stomping the ground. "I should've known!"

"..." His expression darkened. "A military group, I assume?"

[Alien-Child]

"Well, they named themselves after a violent weapon. Know any other group who'd do that?"

[YolkaEd]

"Terrorists and punk gangs who want to appear edgy." Rouge remarked with a shrug, before she gave Shadow a nod. "But yes, they're a military group. They're the military group. And they got the emerald under lock and key in their most secure prison facility."

[AnT]

"There's only one place I know where they would stash it; the GUN Fortress." Breaking into that vault won't be easy.

"Hmph. A simple matter for me, then." he scoffed, about to walk off.

[YolkaEd]

But she set a hand on the hedgehog's shoulder. "Not exactly. It's a very delicate security system they have installed; you make even the slightest misstep in breaking into the massive vault, and you can kiss that gem goodbye."

[Alien-Child]

"I think he's going to do that teleport thing he did to get here." Then she looked at Rouge, "Speaking of which, how you get here? What, you fuzzballs can breath in space and by some ungodly miracle, you were able to fly all the way up here?"

[AnT]

"..." Glaring at Rouge in a 'don't touch me' look, "She snuck aboard in one of the ships."

[YolkaEd]

"Naturally." Taking her hand off him with a faint shrug, she just sighed. "For future reference, you might want to leave your spaceships away from open areas. People are going to sneak into them." she remarked to Eggman, before she gave Shadow a more serious look. "Now I don't know what teleport trick you have up your sleeve, but the margin for tripping the alarm is very precise. We're talking nano-inches. You'd need to study the security grid tirelessly to memorize every nook and cranny."

And then she chuckled. "Oh, did I mention I've studied the security grid tirelessly to memorize every nook and cranny?"

[AnT]

Growling, it seems she had him sold, but he couldn't help but wonder that she only came here just to use them to break into the vault. No matter; he could deal with that, shortly. "Fine. You have a deal."
