Minus Nine° (Nine x Reader)

(My new "Reader Stand-In" character and dress up doll! Their name is Harper! Colors have relevance later! >:3)

You adjust your gloves, pivoting on your foot as four sigils burst forth from your hand, surrounding you in a circle. "Don't all jump in at once or anything, I'm sure that won't end poorly for you..."

Sonic whistles, "Hey Shads, anything else you can tell us about them?"

He shakes his head, readying himself as energy began charging up within the sigils. "Only that they're dangerous, don't give them a chance to set up their attacks!"

"Too late." You release beams of energy from the sigils, the attack rotating around your body and ripping up the interior of the cave while the others jumped out of the way. You roll your eyes, turning to the side and attacking Nine as he flew into the air. Your hand glows with energy as you reach out for his neck! But he's already a step ahead, dodging backward into a midair roll as his tails swung up from underneath and swatted your hand away. Knuckles jumps in behind you, his fist at the ready!

"-Chaos Control.-" You warp behind him in an instant, gripping him by his quills and spinning him down, throwing his body firmly into the dirt with a booming echo. Shadow warps in behind you, punching your spine with a few quick jabs before kicking you in the side, sending you flying across the cave and onto the far side in a puff of dirt.

Amy helps Knuckles to his feet, "You good?"

He shakes his head a few times, "Yeah- I'm good."

The dust remains suspended around your shrouded figure, the sound of rocks moving reverberating in the space. Shadow tisks his tongue, he didn't want to give you a chance to recompose yourself but certainly wasn't about to try and attack something he couldn't see.

"Not too shabby I admit." Your voice echoes around the space, the dirt cloud settling to reveal your form once more. Despite the heavy impact you still appeared unscathed, your hand glowing with chaos energy for a moment before the glow fades. "But this is a waste of your time." You look between the two groups, your eyes looking from Tails to- Tails..? "Two of you? How strange..."

Nine scoffs, walking forward to stand in front of Knuckles and Amy. "Zip it." His tails flare out again before he rushes in, slashing and stabbing at you fluidly, practically rolling and cartwheeling between attacks as he kept the heat on you! Sonic whistles, his brows raising up as with an impressed smile on his face. He's quick to jump in as well, his blue streak attacking you without fail! Each attack you dodged from one ended up landing a strike for the other, the two of them driving you back more and more!

"Just like that!" Shadow teleports into the mix, keeping the strikes on you without a chance for you to catch your breath! A slash across your chest! A spin dash to your stomach! A flurry of fists to your face as you could feel the strikes connecting heavier and heavier with your body.

Tails watches on, his tablet starting to blare like crazy! He looks down at the readings, his eyes widening. "GUYS! Get away from them!!"

Nine's ears perk as he pulls away, jumping back and landing low on all fours, his tails still at the ready while they charged with energy.

Shadow's eyes widen, he grabs Sonic by a quill and teleports back! There's a moment of pause as he can feel the growing energy in you, his own body's energy reacting to the power bubbling up inside. "Are they- going to use Chaos Blast..?"

Your body starts emitting a green glow, your eyes glossing to a bright green while all of your fur changed to a glowing green color. You remain stationary as you transform, your breathing low and labored for a moment before it gradually became easier, your injuries closing up and healing with every passing second.
