It was completely silent in the hallway as Infinite led Gadget to the Spare Room the red wolf would be staying at.

Things have gone unexpectedly well today for him. First Sonic was killed by Gadget, then the red wolf had given him the location for the Resistance Base and Finally Eggman himself was unexpectedly kill by the Resistance.

"That's two obstacles out of the way, with Both Eggman and Sonic dead, there's no need to hold back now, no need to show mercy and I can finally show this world the Phantom Ruby true power"

A tap on the shoulder got Infinite attention and he turn to see it was Gadget tapping his shoulder.

"Yes Gadget What is it?" He asked the red wolf

Gadget rubs the back of his head while looking at the 'mask villain' hearing the slow humming from the phantom ruby on the Jackal chest.

"This 'Plan' you and Metal were mentioning, what sort of 'Plan' is it" He asked the Jackal while looking at him.

"Pretty simple, tomorrow morning we are going to attack the 'City district' of 'Sunset Heights' and destroy the 'Resistance' once and for all, with Sonic dead it will be an easy victory"

The red wolf rubs the back of his head more not to sure if it was going to actually be that simple.

"Doesn't mean they'll go down without a fight, I mean there's Sonics friends, they've fought Eggman, who use to be alive, over the last few years and kept foiling his plans at each turn" Gadget stated to Infinite.

"I know, with Eggman dead, they'll think the war is over and that the planet is free of the 'Fear'"

"You'll likely be Targeted next since you are the only Major threat to the world" Gadget mention to Infinite who simply nodded his head.

"I know"

The two of them reach a spare room and went inside.

"Here's where you will be staying"

Inside the spare room, there was a bed over in the corner next to a desk with a chair, on the wall was the symbol of Eggmans Empire, across from the bed was a monitor on the wall that looked like a TV or something and in the middle of the spare room was a recliner with a remote on it. There was also another door to the left that led into a bathroom too.

"It looks just like a regular room expect the style is different" Gadget notice walking further inside.

Infinite responded with a nod.

"Yes indeed it does, well get some rest Gadget for tomorrow Morning we attack the base" The Jackal said to the red wolf before walking out of the room as the doors close behind him.

Gadget watch the doors close shut before looking around the room and nods abit then heads over to the bed and sits down on it before kicking off his boots, taking off his green combat gloves and setting them on the desk next to the bed along with his glasses before laying on the bed and looking up at the ceiling.

He was trying process everything that has happen over the last couple hours from when he took the shot.

"So, it really has happen, I've switch sides from the Resistance over to Infinite and Metals...it's not like the Resistance would understand anyway...they all count on Sonic as their savior...to protect them and too take care of every major problem,"

He closes his eyes letting out a sigh.

"So tomorrow...I'll be fighting along side my new allies against my former ones...I've always wondered, if the Resistance truly did see me as a Ally..."

Gadget turns over on his side facing the wall before closing his eyes and falling asleep.

———-

In the hallway, Infinite was walking to his own room by himself. His own footsteps being heard along with the humming of the phantom ruby.

"Tomorrow morning, we strike at the heart of the Resistance, no blue savior coming in to save the day...Gadget you have certainly come a long way from six months ago...I look forward to seeing you striking down your former allies"

The Jackal smirked behind his mask as he reaches a door and pushes a few buttons on a console that was next to the door. It opens up and he walks inside before it closes behind him.

In just a few hours, the world will soon be facing a new enemy that is more dangerous than the Eggman Empire.
———-
Metal Sonic sat in the chair at the Main Computer scanning at the coordinates that Gadget had provided earlier. He had scan them a hundred times and whatever else was on the USB drive that the red wolf had forgotten to take out.

"No errors or glitches and definitely no tracking or listening bugs in the data or coordinates"

The robotic hedgehog nods his head in approval of this. Surely tomorrow's plan will go off without a hitch. Metal presses a few more keys on the keyboard and the screen zooms out back to the map before other small screens appear and he presses another key that shows blueprints of some kind of weapon.

"This is odd"

A few more keys were typed and the other circles that were on the map start popping up more screens showing images and pictures that look like flying rockets and mushroom clouds.

"Where did he get this information?" He said to himself pondering at it for a minute before he heard a beeping on the main screen and quickly saved all the information onto the hard drive of the Main Computer from the USB drive planning on looking at it at a later time and presses a red button on the keyboard.

The screen from the map and smaller screens disappear and get replace by a screen of a picture containing a large triangle blue-grayish ship.

"Aah yes it's finally ready, after four years of construction, hidden away from the world and from the eyes of Eggman, I'll finally be able to use it for the fleet"

Metal Sonic rubs his metallic hands together as he was certainly looking forward too tomorrow.

The next morning

Infinite was walking down the hallway towards the Spare Room where Gadget was Staying at and knocks on the door.

"Gadget, you awake, it's time to attack the base"

He waits about a minute not getting any response from the red wolf and sighs before pressing a few buttons on the door before it opens up.

"Hey kid you awake?" Infinite called out stepping into the room and looks around to see it nice and tidy except with the monitor on the wall turn on showing a news station.

"Where is that pup?"

His answer was given as the sounds of the shower running was heard and he saw steam coming out from underneath the other door in the room.

He sighs to himself figuring Gadget was cleaning up for today's attack since his red fur was a little dirty yesterday. The Jackal goes over to the recliner and sits down in it and looks at the tv while waiting for Gadget.

He was very curious to know what they were reporting about after the Eggman Empire was defeated yesterday.

"In breaking news, With the defeat of Dr. Eggman yesterday thanks to the efforts of the Resistance along with the Support from G.U.N, the Eggman Empire has finally been defeated, the world is finally free from the tyranny of Eggman, there's still no word as too what has become of the Doctor or what has become of the worlds hero, Sonic, we can only hope he made it out alive of the battle since resistance forces have neither seen nor heard from him since"

"He's dead" Infinite smirked behind his mask.

"In other news, the being know only as 'Infinite' has neither been seen or heard of since the aftermath yesterday, Resistance and G.U.N Forces are still on high-alert"

Infinite turns off the tv as he's heard enough just as the same time Gadget came out of the bathroom looking all nice and clean with his gloves, shoes and glasses on.

"Feeling a little better?"

Gadget gets a little startled when he heard Infinite voice in the room and looked at the Jackal sitting in the recliner.

"I-Infinite, w-what are you d-doing in here?" Gadget stutter with his muzzle turning a little red.

"Waiting for you but it seems your already ready"

The Jackal got up and starts heading for the door motioning for Gadget to follow him as the red wolf quickly got his Wispon not wanting to keep the Jackal waiting.

"Why this early in the morning?" Gadget asked Infinite.

The Jackal looked at Gadget as they both walked out of the room and into the hall before proceeding down the hallway.

"Cause we will have the element of surprise on our side if we attack the Resistance Base at the break of dawn"

"I see"
