"... I wanna come with you..." Lenny mumbled. It felt awkward for him, but it was something that would probably help him survive.

"seriously...?!" Ness said, suprised "well, sure! you have a gun so that will come in usefull if we get in any trouble"
"Nice to meet you properly!" Paula said, smiling

"You two lead the way..." Lenny said, almost ordering.

Ness nodded and continued walking in the directiong he was going before

Lenny followed... he kept an eye out for any trouble.

===

Eggman had picked up several life forms on the radar.
"Oh... some new test subjects, I see?" He grinned, rubbing his hands together.
"Ready Project Corkscrew!"

Ness looked at the surroundings, he was still a little freaked out at everything having eyes.

Speedy Saw Something Flying In The Air,"Wonder What That Is."

The ground around them started vibrating... Lenny looked round to see what was causing it.
"The heck is going on?" He growled, pistol at the ready.

Speedy Also Felt The Vibrtions,"What The Heck!??!"

Ness got out his baseball bat at the same time, Paula got out her frying pan

Messilita started to explore the insides of the tank,having her rifle equipped.

"See anything yet...?" Paula asked

Something large shot out of the ground in front of Paula, Ness and Lenny. Lenny aimed his pistol in front of him to see a large mechanical orange and red cobra snarling at them with some rather large metal fangs.
"..." Lenny fired, although it didn't really do anything.
"Crap."

===

The thing in the sky was, as a matter of fact, a TV with wings... it flew down to the group, mainly towards Speedy, then halted. The face of a man with swirly glasses, a big red nose and a tuft of white hair appeared on the screen.
"What does this guy want?" Aidan asked. Scizo shrugged.

===

The inside of the tank only contained a lot of wires, several canisters containing some highly reactive substance and some tubes connecting from place to place. It was a rather volatile tank, and maybe even a single bullet firing off could blow up the entire tank.

"I don't get it...who is controlling this thing?" Messilita was looking at the canisters...could the substance inside be familiar to what Kardinal uses?

"aah!" Paula said, she tried using PK fire on the robo cobra

it did a little damage, although something bigger was needed. It slammed it's tail at Ness and bit at Paula, with Lenny waiting for the perfect moment.

Ness was whacked backwards and Paula gashed herself on it's teeth, Ness tried using PSI rockin' and Paula Rolled out the way

(PSI Rockin'?)

(Yes, it's a powerfull PSI move Ness had in the games)

(Description on what it does?)

(In the games, it hat all enemies for quite a hight amount of damage)

(Fair.)

The cobra took quite a lot of damage, but now it focused on Ness. A row of spikes extended out on the back of it's head to half-way down the body, and it's eyes started to grow a bright green along with the fangs.
"..." Lenny just kept waiting, but all of the sudden the cobra slammed it's tail towards Ness and lashed at him at the same time.

Ness was hit on his leg, cutting quite far into it, Paula Tried using PK Thunder to distract it away from Ness

The cobra's electrics went into a short frenzy as it juttered about a bit. This bought them some time to flee.
"Come on, quick! While it's in a frenzy!" Lenny shouted.

Pala and Ness Nodded, and started fleeing
