User:Lania

There once was a girl named Lania. She was a scientific experiment, a friend, a psychic, and a treasure hunter. Cloned from the girl Maria by Dr. Ivo Robotnick for his unsettling reasons. Escaping, she quickly began making friends, one of the first people she met was the long dead guardian of the Master Emerald and Twinkle Park ticket booth and defense administrator, Dark Rexx, who with she had many different contests, such as who could steal the most hot dogs. She quickly came to like, as well as his goggles, which she soon took for her self. Lania had unique psychic abilities that manifested themselves in a glowing yellow light surrounding her immediate body. With Rexx, she began searching for the pieces of the once again demolished Master Emerald, and they also began building a house. She fought to find an end to her pursuit by Dr. Eggman, who refused to leave his old experiment alone. She soon met two more interesting people, the obnoxious Drakkoid, Erosan, and the introverted and mysterious human boy, Kite. Though a good person and usually kind person, Kite was soon led to anger at Erosan’s mockery, and killed him. A dark force had possessed him, but Lania entered the scarred boys mind and healed him of the malevolent force.

Soon a strange egg appeared and hatched, revealing a baby Erosan, just as obnoxious in as before, but without the annoying ripostes. He soon grew to full size, along with a new habit of smoking excessively. She continued to fight Eggman, also meeting fellow Artificial Life-Form, Shadow. She jarred him with her astonishing resemblance to the long dead girl, Maria, Eggman’s cousin and the source for the DNA used in Lania’s creation. She also had a strange wrapping covering her body that served as light clothing that was chemically adhered to her body. Dr Eggman had the correct solvent, but he, and only he, knew how to properly administrate it to her. In a few months time, she and Rexx became romantically attached, hugging and kissing often, as well as obtaining (stealing) expensive gifts for each other.

However, their love life was interjected with from the coming of the final showdown with Shadow the Hedgehog, Ultimate Life-Form and holder of the near limitless power of several of the Chaos Emeralds. The fight waged on for days on an immense asteroid floating above Earth, but the many teams of heroes and various villains worked together to defeat Shadow. Once he was defeated, the Emeralds were ripped from his body, and scattered across the globe to remain hidden permanently this time. In this ending battle, all pieces of the Master Emerald were brought together and was acquired by Rexx. Injured and now devoid of his emeralds, Shadow used a fake emerald to use Chaos Control, teleporting to a destination unknown and had not been seen since. With this accomplishment, the Heroes returned home to Earth.

Lania, Dark Rexx, and Erosan then began to search the globe for various treasures, the Chaos Emeralds among them. But something was not quite right. Lania was not as energetic as she once was, and was more and more sickly. Worried, her two friends took her for a doctor for examination and the horrible truth was revealed: Lania was dying. It turned out that Eggman had created a failsafe that should Lania disobey him, she would slowly but surely disintegrate on a molecular level. The trio began scouring the globe and the inner solar system itself looking for Eggman to acquire the way to cure her and release the wrapping from her body. Rexx and Erosan began buying clothes for Lania for after she was cured and removed from the infernal rags that encompassed her body to help cheer her up. After six months, they found Ivo’s base in a mountainous region far to the east. They fought their way in, Rexx getting a chunk of his side taken out and Ero breaking his left back leg. Deep inside the complex they encountered two knew robots from Eggman, Metal Dark Rexx and Metal Erosan. The two allies fought the robots for hours, receiving numerous injuries. Finally, Lania found their weakness inside the robots metal innards and tore the robots apart with her psychic powers, though this weakened her terribly.

In he center of the underground building the three found Eggman, who began to gloat obnoxiously at the return of his experiment and gave her one last chance to join him, which she vehemently refused. At this he grew furious, telling her that she was know doomed, and destroyed the files telling the chemical process of making the cure. Punching a button, Ivo Robotnick launched the complex and half the mountain into space. Reading his mind, Lania found that he meant to incapacitate them and escape while the station exploded. With a thought, she teleported her two friends back to Station Square, where a satellite was transmitting the ensuing battle all across the globe. They watched in horror as Lania was once again racked with pain, at which Eggman used to grab her in the hands of one of his giant robots. “You are mine, little girl. My experiment, and my slave! I shall install a chip in your head to control you once we escape, and you shall take over the world for me!” Eggman began to laugh insanely, until he noticed he no longer had Lania. Looking down, he saw her standing on the ground below, glowing with power. “You’re wrong, Eggman! I’m my own! And you are finished!” She then released the power in a furious explosion.

What happened next would never have been seen if the satellite had not recorded it to different computers across the globe, since her release of power also left the world unconscious, not one person awake after the release of power. It showed the smoke clearing, the remnants of Eggmans robot rifting off toward the sun, and a piece of the mountain that they had battled on still floating. As the smoke cleared, it showed a haggard Lania walking, now clad in a beautiful flowing dress that Rexx had bought her, finally free of her cloth wrappings. She then collapsed and dissolved into a gas ball that slowly crept along the rock slab and began to condense and shine, creating a beautiful small star that has shone ever since, a tribute to her sacrifice. When the world awoke, Rexx was left with personal note that she had thought written moments before she died and which he has never let anyone else read, and Ero held her goggles in his clawed hand. The world mourned the loss of the valiant girl, but praised and erected statues for her accomplishment that no one else had been able to do: defeat Eggman. Rexx used the Master Emerald to become alive once more, in order to one day leave this world and join his love. In his sorrow, Erosan ripped open an interdimensional hole, which took him to a doppelganger dimension that in Lania had never existed, in which he now resides. Thus was the end of Lania, victor over Eggman.
