Rainbow Dash asked "Not far, we're almost here" Eggman responded "and it's Dr. Eggman. " "Oh, right sorry." she apologized The two have been flying for quite some time, with Rainbow Dash surpassing him a few times and waiting for him to catch up, until they finally arrived at the Doctors' headquarters. His base was located next to a mountain-side with hangers and turrets ready for those how wish to bring harm to him. It took almost half of the mountain. "Ah there it is" Eggman said with a pride tone. He stopped her outside of his base and let her take it in. Rainbow dash dropped her jaw not uttering a word; she was in fact, speechless. "Go ahead get a good look." The doctor stated Eggman began describing his headquarters with the most egotistic voice you will every here out of a genius with an IQ of over 300. "My headquarters has top of the line offensive and defensive capacity's with 50-Megaton cannons ready to fire on any land targets with ease and 30-Cal machine turrets that will shred any aircraft that opposes a threat to me. The hangers have top-notch aircraft ready to counter any forces should they come in numbers, and to top it all off "The Egg-Radiater" fires a proton laser that can topple skyscrapers in a matter of seconds…nothing can mess with my base and still be breathing" Eggman stated standing on his Egg-mobile "I have no idea what you just said but it sounded AWESOME" Rainbow Dash said raising her jaw "Yes…it is awesome" Eggman replied "Shall we have a look inside?" Rainbow Dash nodded "DECOE, BOCOE! Open up hanger number 12" Eggman demanded while holding down a button to talk to his robot helpers "Yes, Sir Dr. Eggman" they both replied Eggman flew up to a hanger with 12 beside it and lend the mare inside The doors began to open and they headed in "ok THAT WAS AWSOME!" she screamed in her head They started to find a place to land Rainbow Dash was still speechless as she gazed upon the futurisct tech. she could not believe how far advance he was to have biult us this.Where she came from; nothing came close to being this high-tech."You at like you haven't see this kind of tech before, I mean, yes my creations are far beyond those that dwell here, but you look like you haven't even seen metal" The Dr. Questioned "It's just that…well…we don't have anything this "space-age" where I come from" Rainbow Dash said landing next to Eggman "Ah, I see" "That could be a good thing or a bad thing." He wondered "Well lets head up to the control room so we can discuss how we're going deal with Sonic" Eggman said as he led the way The hanger was a large room having A.I planes ready to launch and it had catwalks so Eggman and his machines can move about without being in the way of the fighters. They came across a door the opened up through the middle "Ah here we go" Eggman said as he pushed a button beside a door The doors opened apart from each other and they went inside. He pushed another button and the room started to ascend ti the top floor. "Oh it's elevator" Rainbow Dash finally realized "That's cool...that's cool" The elevator stopped her started moving sideways."whooo never seen an elevator do this before." The elevator music came on as they started to rise again "Oh wha- why is there always music in an elevator" Rainbow Dash wondered "I have no idea why I put it in there… I keep planning on taking it out but I always forget…"Eggman said scratching his head 3 min passed with complete silence "OH SWEET CELESTIA CAN THIS THING GO ANY SLOWER" Rainbow Dash cried pulling her ears off 3 other min later with Eggman raising his eye brow to her DING "Oh finally" she charged out stretching her wings in the control room dodging his computers "Welcome to the Eggmanfortrees control room Ms. Rainbow Dash" Eggman stated as he took a seat in the center "Dr. Eggman I have you lunch" a black little creature said floating beside him holding out a sandwich "I hope you enjoy it cause I wor-"the creature noticed Rainbow Dash "why is there a pony in the control room Dr.?" "Bukkon!" Eggman yelled to his robot slave "This is not a pony but a magnificent Pegasus" Eggman said while taking his sandwich "and you need to show her some respect because she is going to be of great aid to us in defeating Sonic" "Well actually I am a pony…a Pegasus pony" Rainbow Dash said looking around the room "Oh…I see…" Eggman relied as he turned on his computer The black robot flew up to her."I'm Bukkon, the Dr.'s own messenger and adviser" Bukkon said in Rainbow Dashes face"please to meet you" he held out his hand "Uhhhh like wise…what are you?" She replied shaking his hand with her hoof "He is robot my dear" Eggman said while messing with his computer "whenever I need something delivered and/or need to get my message across the people here, he's' the one I need " "That's a robot?" "Yes…my creations tend to be a little bit odd, but I made him like that to symbolize a joker-like, death machine" This started to worry her a bit."Wait, what about those other two robotsyou talked to on the way in here…Dodo and Benco? Was it." "Decoe and Bocoe" two voices said entering through another elevator There were two robots standing behind Eggman, one was tall and gold the other was small and silver "I'm Decoe" said the gold one "And I'm Bocoe" said the silver one "It's about time you two showed up, I would like to introduce you two, to Rainbow Dash" Eggman said pointing at Rainbow Dash "Wow a real life Pegasus" said Bocoe "I thought they only existed in fairytales" "Yeah, me too, but he looks a bit shorter than the ones I read of" replied Decoe "DO I LOOK LIKE A STALLION TO YOU?!" Rainbow Dash Yelled "Oh man, so sorry Ms., I didn't know, please don't hurt me" Decoe said covering his face like a coward "It's alright, just know that I am not a Stud" she said calming down "What is she doing here Dr.?" Bocoe asked Eggman directly "Boys" he said standing up addressing the three "Here we have the solution to our problems, a way for us to destroy the evil that is Sonic the hedgehog and free this planet from his control" Rainbow Dash blushed a little The three just gave Eggman a blank stare, suddenly realizing what he was getting at "Oh, how is she the solution to our... problems... she doesn't look so tough" Bukkon said flying around her Before Rainbow Dash could say a word Eggman uttered "Because she already defeated Sonic once" "WHAT?!" three said with their eyes widening their eyes "Look here" Eggman sat down in his chair bringing up the news on his giant monitor. Rainbow Dash and the three robots gathered around "-are on the lookout for a strange winged creature" the news reporter said "This creature is wanted for damaging Sonic and causing a disturbance in town square. Here is what we caught on camera of this… thing-" the video started showing Sonic chasing Rainbow Dash through station square "-as you can see Sonic is chasing the creature down town and into the subway where we have trouble staying with them, but our eye in the sky was able to trace them to this exit where the creature flies out and disappears in the clouds leaving us thinking it's gone for good but when it comes back, it shoots a lightning bolt knocking Sonic out and flying away.This creature is also believe to be one of Eggmans robots so if anyon-" Eggman shut off the news "See?" Eggman said with a grin "Wow that was…" Bukkon started "Amazing?" Bocoe added "Incredible?" Decoe added "TOTTALLY AWSOME!" Bukkon yelled in the air "you showed that mean old Sonic whose's boss." "Yup, no one messes with Rainbow Dash." she said striking a pose "Yes that was pretty clever what you did, but the one thing I can't figure out is "how" you did it. You don't seem to be the one to have control over the eltronic atoms in clouds" Eggman said stroking his mustache "uhhhhh...I don't, I just have control over the weather…all Pegasus ponies have control over the weather, it's how the weather gets moved in Equestria." "Really? That's pretty astonishing…heh because of that it shows how lazing we are because the weather here forms naturally, well anyway that is not important, how weather is made and all. What's important is that you can control it and it will be a valuable asset to us." "Alright just tell me what to do and we will free this world." She flying up looking like she was getting ready to charge out the observation window "Now hold on there Rainbow, you beat Sonic...once...with a sneak attack, and he was going easy on you, you're not ready" "Why would someone as evil as this…Sonic, go easy on me?" "Because he wants you to fall under his control without being damage" "What do you mean?" "I mean, Sonic has an Incredible silver tongue" "A silver tongue? Ew how can someone live knowing tha-…" she stop realizing how stupid she was for thinking that. "OHHHHH never mind I know what you mean. Wow he must be the best talker ever to have an entire city treat him as a hero,…but if you're the real hero how come they are respecting him more than you?" "He has convinced them all that I am the evil one and that they must kill me to insure their safety…all I wanted to do is help them but…" "Say no more, I understand… I will help you defeat Sonic the hedgehog" "Wonderful, but next time you face Sonic he will fight you with all his power and hold nothing back.How are you fighting a fast-moving, hyper-active being before…in fact what have you done that involve you straining yourself" "Well…" she started to think back at all the time where she relied on others to aid her "Nothing really, it's usually peaceful I have always got my friends to back me up whenever there is trouble, BUT butbutbutbut I still do heroic stuff in Ponyville like rescue people from certain death and such. But other than that not really, no" "Well Rainbow Dash… time for you to get some training" Eggman said standing up
