Aya flew over the battlefield, her feathers ruffled by the wind. She saw two figures locked in combat. One was a man with a thick mustache and goggles, accompanied by a metallic humanoid machine. The other was a statue that seemed to shift its position with each blink. Aya flew down near the combatants, eager to find out what was going on. "Hey, what's happening here?" asked Aya, her voice cutting over the sounds of metal clashing. The Eggman and Metal Sonic duo turned to look at Aya, smirking. "Ah, the press. Good timing," said Eggman, his voice full of confidence. "We're about to destroy this statue and take over the world. Care to watch?" Aya was taken aback. "Destroy that statue? Are you crazy? That's just a SCP object!" Eggman barely blinked. "I don't care what it is. It's in our way. And we always get what we want." At that moment, SCP-173 moved. The two combatants went on the defense, their bodies tensed. Eggman pulled out a remote, and with a beep, Metal Sonic began to move at blinding speed. SCP-173 tried to snap the robot's neck, but the machine was too quick, dodging with ease and slipping into attack mode. His fists flew across the area, hitting SCP-173 with deadly accuracy. Aya watched in amazement as Metal Sonic held his own against SCP-173. Despite the statue's twitching movements, Metal Sonic was able to predict its next move with his quick reflexes. Eggman, meanwhile, was barking commands and peppering the area with missiles. But SCP-173 was not an object to be taken lightly. With a sudden move, the statue managed to somehow grab Metal Sonic's leg. Eggman's eyes went wide as he saw his creation slowly being dragged towards the creature's gaping maw. "That's it! Overcharge!" yelled Eggman, pointing his remote at Metal Sonic. Electricity crackled around Metal Sonic's body as he suddenly became stronger, faster, and more deadly. He broke free of SCP-173's grasp and began to pummel the creature. Aya could feel the ground rumbling under her feet as the two objects collided. After a few more minutes of intense fighting, the battle was over. SCP-173 lay in pieces on the ground. Eggman and Metal Sonic emerged victorious. Eggman let out a laugh of triumph. "Ha! Did you see that? We beat that thing to a pulp!" he crowed. Aya was taken aback. "That's not something to brag about. You destroyed an SCP object. Do you have any idea what kind of danger that could lead to?" Eggman waved a hand dismissively. "Bah, we can handle anything. And with Metal Sonic by my side, we're unstoppable. Nothing can stop us from ruling the world!" Aya felt a chill go down her spine. "You're both insane. You could have unleashed something much worse than SCP-173. I'm getting out of here before anything else can happen." As Aya took to the air, she couldn't help but watch as Eggman and Metal Sonic continued to laugh and joke, not realizing the true danger that lurked in the shadows.
