Before we start I want to thank for all your reviews, and to give the answer to the following chapter.

Unfortunately since Chris is playing the role of Omochao, he can't die (well stay dead, actually) but that doesn't mean we can't try.

And for those Chris fan, don't take the Chris bashing too hard, it's mostly happening because he's this story's version of Omochao, (I hate that robot so much) Anyway, I assure you there won't be any Chris blood or guts flying around the place (For one thing, I'll have to clean it all up) but you might still want to turn away.

Sonic Heroes: Switching Role

"Boy, talk about a misunderstanding." Vector said as Team Chaotix entered the yard of a large castle,

"Yeah that was embarrassing"

"That was sure dumb of you guys"

"I didn't see you helping matters out, Charmy"

Looking up at the castle, Espio said, "That must be the spooky castle our client was talking about,"

Just then a swarm of bats flew by,

"Yep, the bats are a dead give away."

"You know, this place isn't so bad."

"What are you talking about, Vector, what place could be worse?" Mighty asked

"Newark and Jersey"

oo00oo00oo

"Odd, where's Foxboy and his robots?" Shadow asked, puzzled at the fact that Foxboy's robots should have attacked him by now.

"Hey look there's a note on that pillar." Rouge said, pointing at a note, Shadow then picked up the note and begin to read,

"Dear Fools, I wish I was there to destroy you myself, but due to an unforeseen fate, I am forced to leave this place and leave you to your doom, I feel sorry for you. Signed Doctor Miles "Foxboy" Prower."

"What would make Foxboy leave this please?" Big asked,

"Hey, Look at that sign. Welcome to Thorndyke Manor!"

"AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!"

oo00oo00oo

"Sonic! Knuckles! Get back here! Metal, don't let go of them!" Nack yelled as he and Metal held on tight to Sonic and Knuckles, who were trying to run away as fast as they can.

"Look, It's just one kid, how hard can it be?"

"Hi, We're Chris Thorndyke and we're here to help you."

Turning round, Team Dark found themselves surrounded by hundreds for Chris.

"Where the hell did all of them come from!" Knuckles yelled.

oo00oo00oo

"What does it say, Eggman?" Amy asked

"Foxboy's easy to use cloning machine," Eggman answered.

After a moment of silence Cream said, " Do we still have that shot gun?"

oo00oo00oo

Team Chaotix ran down the slope, gaining speed as they did, when they reached a large door.

"Vector look, it's one of those key, our client told us about" Charmy said, as he reached for the key. Suddenly a ghost appeared before him.

"AAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!" Charmy screamed,

"Leave this place, lest I visit ye with cake!" The ghost yelled.

"Cake?" Espio said, "What's so scary about bringing us a cake?" Espio asked puzzled,

"Well if it's a fruit cake…" Vector began to say,

"I'm sorry," the Ghost apologised, "I'm not very good at this. You see, people usually run away when they find out who lives here, so we ghosts never get the chance to scare people."

"Um, hate to interrupted you but… can we get in to the house. We might be able to get rid of Chris for you"

"Oh sure. I'll get the spider robot that works here to open it. HEY TARANTULAS!" the ghost yelled and a robotic spider soon appeared.

"Heeheehaha. Hi there. The name's Tarantulas, how can I help you?" the Spider-bot asked,

"We need to get inside." Espio answered.

"Ah, I can help you there. How many keys do you have?"

"Four." Vector replied,

"Good, because you need five to open the door and I have one. Get me something to eat and I'll give you it"

"Why do you want food for the key?" Charmy asked,

"Because all I had to eat for the last three weeks were Chris Thorndyke clones. I need something different then the flesh and blood of an annoying kid to eat!" Tarantulas replied.

"Well. I have a bacon sandwich." Vector finally answered.

"Deal" Tarantulas said as he took the sandwich and handed over the key.

oo00oo00oo

Inside the mansion, Team Dark enters the hallway, covered in what looks like blood (Dang, now I have to clean it up) .

"When we get out of here. I'm going to have a long shower," Sonic said, as looked at his blood soaked gloves, "Make that two long showers".

"We've killed so many Chris clones that I lost count." Nack added,

"Two million, nine thousand, six hundred and eighty three" Metal answered.

"Look, let's just find the way out" Knuckles said, picking a new corridor to go down.

oo00oo00oo

"I can't believe I let you three talk me into giving that robot spider my sandwich," Vector moaned as he and the rest of Team Chaotix explored the mansion.

"Will you quit complaining, Vector" Mighty said, "Look, we're in the kitchen. You can get something to eat here".

As Vector looked in the cupboard, he saw the candy inside coming to life and started to attack him,

"AGGGHH! Evil candy!" Vector yelled as the candy attacked him and Team Chaotix. Suddenly Vector gets an idea and shove a hand full of candy into his mouth, causing the rest of the candy to run away,

"Yum, evil never tasted so sweet!" Vector commented

ooo00oo00oo

"What do you see Metal Eggman?" Metallix asked,

"I see Team Cream killing Chris clones with a shotgun. In fact, the whole mansion is looking like something out of a horror film" Metal Eggman replied,

"Um…" Metallix said, he then to turns face the reader (That's you!) and said, "I think, in order to avoid needless gore, it would be best to end this chapter."

(I agree)

oo00oo00oo

And so the heroes left Thorndyke manor and, after Team Chaotix listened to their client's next order, headed off to a Foxboy base station where they can get a ship to reach the Fox Fleet.

To be continued

Next in Chapter 12. Our Heroes will face Metal and the marvels of flight in the Death Fox Labs.

Sorry about the time between the updates, I'll update as soon as I can. (Looks at the pile of Chris clones) Tarantulas stay away from that!
