Ah, the city of Station Square. This peaceful paradise boasts low crime rates, a great public school system, a happy population, and somewhat less political corruption than the national average! It is this gorgeous locale that serves as the backdrop to our story, where we'll surely enjoy a relaxing tale of-
"Mwa ha ha ha! No such luck! Dr. Eggman's in town!"
Oh. Bummer.
"Greetings, my eminent subjects!" the rotund rapscallion shouted into a megaphone to the streets below, hovering overhead in his trusty Eggmobile as he watched the panicking masses run for their lives, "It's been far too long since I've paid my favorite bunch of buffoons a visit, and I'm just dying to share my latest toy with you!"
He glanced to his side, "Release the robot!"
"Right away, boss!" Orbot, his spherical henchman, answered with a salute. He was floating nearby in his own smaller Eggmobile, on which he began typing away at his dashboard control panel. "Robot is ready to release!"
"Verily, sire!" answered Cubot - Orbot's yellow partner in crime - who was seated in his own cubic Eggmobile, "Feeble peasants of Station Square, we bite our thumbs at thou!"
The robot glanced about momentarily, before whispering aside to Eggman, "Begging thy pardons, sire, but wherefore art the robot?"
Eggman raised an eyebrow, adjusting the brim of his glases.
"You know, 'wherefore' means 'why,' not 'where,'" The Doctor said, before waving his hand dismissively at the robot, "Never mind that. He's right here!"
The Eggmobile deployed a large wooden barrel, which plummeted to the ground below, splitting into pieces with a KER-THWACK upon impact.
As the debris cleared, Eggman's latest sinister boss robot stepped forward.
MECHANICAL APE:
EGG KONG
"GRYAAAAAA!"
"Isn't it magnificent?" Eggman asked, marveling at his own creation.
Orbot applauded, "I'll say! You've really got kidnapping small animals and using them to power larger robotic animals down to an art, sir!"
"Don't I, though?" he chuckled to himself, bowing in faux-humility, "And now..."
"Egg Kong! Terrorize the simpletons of this city until they cave to my reasonable demands of complete municipal control!"
"OOH, OOH, OOH! KYAAAAAAAH~!"
The robot hesitated for a moment, and then fired a laser at Eggman's - and his minions' - Eggmobiles.
"Wh-what the-?!
And then they fell.
Nooot agaiiiiiiiiin~!"
"Well, can't say I didn't see this coming..."
"Yea noise? Then I shall be brief. O happy concrete!"
Crash.
"Ugh..."
Eggman stumbled out of the wreckage, looking about, as he got his bearings.
"What... just happened?"
His confusion soon turned to rage as he spotted his rogue robot in the distance, already gallivanting through town without his orders.
"Oooh, ooh, ooh! GRYAAAH!"
The animatronic ape stood before the lofty construction site of the upcoming South Island Suites hotel, mechanically scratching its head in thought.
"HOOOO!"
And then it started to climb that building.
Come on. You knew it would come to this.
"What does that piece of junk think it's doing?"
Eggman looked on in disgust as his robot made its way to the site's roof and began beating its chest triumphantly. ...Oh, and blasting things. That robot was firing its beams and throwing construction debris all over the place.
"Gah! Someone has to shut down that marauding machine before it destroys the whole town!" He shrugged a bit, shifting his expression slightly, "I mean, you know, I don't want to rule over a junk yard. I've got to keep my future domain relatively intact and all."
"Nay, sir," Cubot said, standing from his own crashed Eggmobile, "Thy plans art always... not to be. There is no question."
"Rrr... Just shut up and call for reinforcements! In the meantime, I'll do what I can to shut this monkey down."
"Naturally, boss! A request for help is being transmitted to Eggman Land as we speak!" Orbot replied.
Eggman faced the construction site where the Egg Kong was perched and stepped toward it.
"Alright then... it's time to save Station Square!" He struck a dramatic pose, held it for a few seconds while his robots snapped a couple of photos for tomorrow's Eggmanland press release, and then dropped it, "...So I can properly conquer it immediately afterward, of course! Let's go!"
And so it was the start of another misadventure for the Eggman Empire.
