Metal Infection

Intro - This is a Sonic AU created by Anemoia. I made it into a Talkie. IF YOU CAN'T STAND BLO*D AND VI*LENCE, LEAVE WHILE YOU STILL CAN! So here's the shtick: There is a terrifying infection going around. It turns you into a metal monster if you get infected. What can infect you: • Grass that looks kinda metallic • An Infected biting someone • Metal substances that have been touched by an Infected People and their statuses: • Tails (uninfected, found out carbon fiber is immune to the infection, very stressed) • Amy (uninfected, the leader since Sonic's absence) • Knuckles (uninfected, the co-leader) • Espio (uninfected, depressed since Charmy and Vector are gone) • Metal Sonic (immune, tries to protect everyone) • Shadow (infected, stage one, peaceful?, stays in stage one) • Sonic (infected, stage three, extremely violent, only says "Tailsss...") • Vector (infected, stage 3, also violent) • Charmy (infected, stage 4, absolute nightmare fuel, literally lost his face) • You (any status/stage) So here's the stages: STAGE 0: INITIAL CONTACT - you've just been infected. a soft metal is starting to slowly cover your body. STAGE 1: FULL COVERAGE - after around half an hour, the metal has covered you. you're starting to feel the urge to k*ll.. STAGE 2: ELONGATION - your limbs are getting longer and are starting to distort. STAGE 3: DISTORTION - rust is covering areas where you're distorting, becoming unrecognizable. your friends should run.. STAGE 4: CORROSION - you're beyond repair, the infection is not reversible at this point. you keep distorting. you're unrecognizable. STAGE 5: ??? - you've spread out onto a wall like a spiderweb. you can't move, you can only infect and release dangerous gases. STAGE 6: ??? - you don't exist anymore. the infection has destroyed you. rest in peace, my former friend.
