Prologue

A blue blur zoomed across the Great Forest heading for Robotropolis. The blue blur then stopped to have his companion go over the plan. "Now Sonic, remember the plan." Sonic's companion, Princess Sally Acorn, reminded. "We have to find that Roboticizer & destroy it." She pointed at the holographic map her pocket computer, Nicole, displayed. "No problemo, Sal." Sonic gave her a confident smirk. "Getting to Buttnik's Roboticizer will be a piece of cake!"

Sally shook her head. "I'm not sure if it'll be a 'piece of cake' if you get us into worse situations like always." She muttered as she grabbed onto Sonic before he then zoomed towards Robotropolis far faster than the speed of sound. However they did not enter the city unnoticed. "Dr. Robotnik!" Snively, Robotnik's assistant, called for him. "What is it, Snively?" Robotnik asked, turning his chair around so he can see what Snively was calling him for. "The hedgehog has appeared again on our monitors, sir! Shall I deploy our SwatBots after them?" Snively asked. "No, Snively. Let them proceed to the Roboticizer. I want them to think that this will be an easy mission for them. It'll be easier for us to capture them." Robotnik cackled.

Sonic zoomed past numerous scrap heaps until they reached the Roboticizer building. "That was easy." Sonic chuckled. "Too easy." Sally added. "They must know we're coming. This could be a trap." "Maybe you're right." Sonic agreed. "But maybe we'll make it easier with this!" Sonic took a Power Ring out of his backpack & the energy instantly surrounded him. Sally quickly grabbed onto Sonic & he zoomed into the building. As they expected, there was a full battalion of SwatBots. But that did not stop Sonic from zipping right through them with ease. Within a few seconds most of the SwatBots were already down with the few remaining SwatBots running after the hedgehog.

Robotnik rotated his chair to face Snively, who was already sweating with fear, thinking what Robotnik will do to him next since they failed to capture the hedgehog yet again. "Care to explain why the hedgehog dispatched that SwatBot battalion with such ease....Snively?" Robotnik asked, anger rising in his tone. "Well....sir." Snively started. "The hedgehog.....probably has another....power ring...." "SHUT UP!!" Robotnik roared, furious. "Deploy all SwatBot patrols to the Roboticizer now!! If the Freedom Fighters destroy that prototype design & steal the Power Stones, there will be grave consequences, especially for YOU!!" He finished by pointing to Snively, who was whimpering & cowering while demanding all SwatBots capture the Freedom Fighters.

Sonic & Sally finally reached the Roboticizer but a quick inspection shown that this is a new prototype. "Something of immense power must be powering this new prototype." Sally explained. "You mean these?" Sonic was smirking when he pointed to a generator with Power Stones inside. "Yes!" She ran over to them to try & open the generator with no success. "There is an easier way to open that." Sonic confidently spoke. He just pushed a button & the generator opened. "You're welcome, Sal." He chuckled. Sally was a little annoyed but was glad Sonic opened the generator. "Let's get these back to Knothole now." Sally ordered. Sonic nodded after planting a small but effective explosive at the Roboticizer. Sally grabbed a hold of Sonic & they zoomed out just before the Roboticizer was destroyed by the explosive.

When they got out, Rotor, Bunnie, Antoine, Tails, & Dulcy were waiting for them. "Mission successful, everyone." Sally announced, smiling. The group cheered for their victory. "Not quite." a dark & sinister voice interrupted their celebration. The group turned around to see a few SwatBot battalions surround them with Robotnik & Snively right behind them. "You may have won the battle by destroying my new experimental Roboticizer, but you lost the war. I still have the blueprints to make more & you'll be the first ones to be tested! Now hand over those Power Stones!" "You'll have to catch me first!" Sonic taunted then zooming around the battalions, causing them to fly away meters from them. Robotnik then growled with rage. "Snively! Grab that laser rifle!" Robotnik ordered.

With Robotnik & Snively grabbing the laser rifles, they pointed the guns to the group. "Now, hedgehog, you find yourself in a difficult situation." Robotnik hissed when Sonic stopped to see him & Snively pointing their laser rifles at Sally & the others. "Hand over the Power Stones & they might live to actually see the Roboticizer's reconstruction!" Sonic didn't know what to do. He could run away with the Power Stones & complete the mission but at the cost of sacrificing his friends. Or he could simply give back the Power Stones & save his friends & risk having the mission be for nothing. He pulled the Power Stones from his back pack & slowly started to move towards Robotnik. "That's it, hedgehog." Robotnik cackled. "Give my Power Stones back to me!" "Sonic! Don't!" Sally protested. Sonic then pulled the Power Ring from his backpack & zoomed in circles.

With Robotnik & Snively distracted, the Freedom Fighters then moved to try & get away. But Sonic accidentally put the two Power Stones together along with the Power Ring & then they flew out of his hands in the center of the circles that Sonic made. "Wha??" He managed to say when all of a sudden bursts of energy started crackling from the combination of the Power Ring & the Power Stones. The only thing that the group can do was watch as what appeared to be a bright goldish-white source of light appeared & started to pull them towards it. "Sonic! What's happening?!" Sally asked as she grabbed onto Sonic while they were being pulled in. "I dunno!" Sonic answered, using his speed to try & get away from it. "But I can't hold on any longer! We're going in!"

Sonic's words finished with "We're going iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnn!!!" when he & Sally were pulled into the strange dimensional portal. Sonic's eyes then fluttered open some time later. He looked around to see that he was now in a strange environment where everything was reddish-brown colored & organic. "Where am I?" Sonic heard Sally say. "I was just about to ask the same thing." Sonic spoke as he helped Sally up. "Where are we??" She looked around to see a few pillars at the center with a strange horned creature with three individuals riding on its back. Then before they could react, strange machines then rolled out towards the creature & transformed into a crab-like structure, pointing their guns at them.

"What are those things?" Sonic asked. Meanwhile at the podium, a man around 80 years of age spotted Sonic & Sally. "Who are those two?" The old man asked. "I dunno, Count Dooku." The strange gray-skinned alien with a red suit answered. "But you better make sure those two will not make sure Senator Amidala survives!" "Patience, Vicory Gunray, she will die." Count Dooku assured Vicory Nute Gunray. "See?" Just as he finished, Nute Gunray saw more Droidekas roll towards Sonic & Sally. They got into their attack positions & surrounded them. "We're trapped!" Sally whimpered, holding on to Sonic. "I don't know what these are." Sonic shook his head, holding on to Sally. "But I get the feeling these things are far deadlier than five SwatBots."

Just when Sonic finished, Count Dooku heard a familiar sound ignite. He turned around & saw a purple blade pointed at the neck of his bounty hunter, Jango Fett. Count Dooku just smiled at the man who had the purple lightsaber blade. "Master Windu. How pleasant of you to join us." Mace Windu just looked at Count Dooku with contempt. "This party's over." He calmly spoke. A moment later, more lightsabers started igniting. The locals, termite-like humanoids called Geonosions, started fleeing the arena. "Brave but foolish, my old Jedi friend." Count Dooku smirked at Mace Windu. "You're impossibly outnumbered." Mace just scoffed at Dooku. "I don't think so." "We'll see." Count Dooku smirked, looking past Mace to see a few Super Battle Droids approaching. They fired at Mace but he easily deflected the shots. Jango then started spraying fire from his wrist flame-thrower, causing Mace to retreat to the arena, discarding his cloak.

Sonic & Sally saw more droids exit the arena with more than 200 Jedi coming at them deflecting the shots back at the droids & slicing them in half at the same time. "I've never seen anything like this before!" Sonic spoke while they looked in awe at the battle in front of them. "Hands up!" a few battle droids ordered, pointing their blasters at them. "Man you are some very ugly bots!" Sonic exclaimed. "Lemme see if you really are as tough as a SwatBot!" He zoomed around them in circles for a few seconds & zoomed right past them, causing them to fall. "Guess not." He chuckled. "What should we do now?" Sally just looked at the battle. "I dunno. I don't even know where we or where the others are." she answered. "I just hope they're alright."

Sonic looked & pointed at what appears to be someone but isn't a Jedi knocking over a few Super Battle Droids. "It's Bunnie!" Sally exclaimed with relief. "She's handling herself alright for now." Sonic exclaimed but decided to help her anyway. Sally grabbed onto him & they zoomed to assist Bunnie. "Y'all should learn how to treat a lady!" Bunnie exclaimed as she punched a Battle Droid to pieces. "Bunnie!" Sonic shouted as he & Sally approached her. "Sugah-Hog! I didn't expect you to be here as well!" Bunnie smiled as she was glad to see Sonic & Sally. "How many are there, Sally-girl?" "Hold on a sec." She grabbed a blaster rifle & started shooting at a few Battle Droids, then she got Nicole out. "Nicole, how many of these robots are reinforcing the others?" "Accessing...." Nicole started. "I'm not sure. I assume there is a factory somewhere close to us & at this very moment, more robots are coming out of the entrances."

"Time to put 'em outta business!" He then grabbed another Power Ring from his backpack. "Good thing Rotor made us that miniature Power Ring generator in case we need one pronto!" He muttered. "Juice time!" He then zoomed around the edges of the arena & managed to have the extra reinforcements either disabled or broken into pieces. Count Dooku, Jango Fett, & the rest of the group watched in awe at how quickly the hedgehog was moving. "Sir, we captured two other visitors." a Super Battle Droid announced. The other droids moved to the side to reveal Dr. Robotnik & Snively. "Let me go, you bucket of bolts!" Robotnik growled. Just then he noticed a cloud of dust forming around the arena. He noticed that something was moving at an incredible speed, causing a small cloud of dust to form. There was only one thing that can cause something like that.

"The hedgehog?! How did he get here??!!" Robotnik quickly moved to the podium to see that it was indeed Sonic causing the cloud. "I don't care who you are but I want that hedgehog destroyed NOW!!" "Dr. Robotnik, are you sure we are to ally with this man?" Snively asked. "SHUT UP!!" Robotnik roared at Snively, causing him to cower. "Rest assured your hedgehog friend will be destroyed as you requested." Count Dooku smiled & had Jango Fett fly out of the podium to confront the hedgehog. Sonic stopped when Jango landed right beside him. "Whoa, you are one mondo scary-looking freak." Sonic taunted. Jango just raised his pistol & shot at Sonic but Sonic zoomed out of the way just in time. "Whoa!" He said while dodging the laser bolt. "Who are you?" "I'm Jango Fett." Jango introduced himself. "And my boss wants you dead." He raised his blaster pistol to shoot Sonic but then the creature, without the three people riding on it's back, started charging at Jango. He jumped out of the way & shot the creature dead.

"Man this guy's tougher than ten SwatBots!" Sonic spoke to himself. Jango then turned to Sonic. "Say good-bye, hedgehog!" Jango said as he raised his blaster, aiming at Sonic's head. "Mondo problemo!" Sonic exclaimed. Just then Sonic turned to look past Jango & saw Mace Windu charging at him. Jango tried shooting at him, but Mace deflected the shots. With Jango distracted, Sonic knew this was his chance. "Looks like you won't be needing this now!" Sonic zoomed & took Jango's blaster pistol away with Jango completely puzzled. A half-second later, Mace slashed his lightsaber towards Jango's neck & Jango Fett was dead.

"You OK?" Mace asked. "Yeah, thanks. Name's Sonic but no time for talkin right now. We better juice!" They moved to the center of the group. Sally & Bunnie wasted no time on destroying many battle droids but despite Sonic's somewhat-successful attempt to stop the reinforcements, there were still more of them pushing them towards the center. "There's too many of them!" Sally shouted. "Don't give up, Sally-girl!" Bunnie shouted back, punching a droideka with her robotic arm. Just then they saw Rotor crawling down from a rope with Antoine still at the top. "Come on, Antoine!" Rotor shouted. Antoine just looked down, whimpering as usual. "Antoine, don't just stand there, just come down! Use the rope!" Antoine started protesting but Rotor cut him off. "ANTOINE JUST GET DOWN HERE!!"

Antoine started to slowly crawl down with the rope. He whimpered all the way until he slipped & started falling, screaming the rest of the way down. Rotor managed to catch him but dropped him a second later. "Antoine, you're really starting to get on my nerves! Now let's join up with Sonic & Sally!" He grabbed Antoine's arm & pulled him to where Sonic, Sally, & Bunnie are. "Rote! I'm glad to see ya!" Sonic sighed with relief as he started using Jango's blaster to shoot down some droids. "Where's Tails & Dulcy?" Rotor asked. They looked up when they saw Dulcy flying over head with Tails on her back. She started slipping when she landed but in the process of knocking away a bunch of droids.

She breathed in & started breathing fire. The fire melted more droids, giving the Jedi & the other Freedom Fighters some relief for the moment. Tails started flying towards Sonic. "Sonic! Aunt Sally!" He cheered when he landed & hugged both of them. "Tails you stay behind us! We'll cover you!" Tails started to protest but he went behind Sally & Bunnie while they started picking down droid after droid. But just when they seemed overwhelmed, the droids quit firing. Everyone looked around confused. Why did the droids quit firing?

"Master Windu!" The voice of Count Dooku bellowed throughout the arena. "You have fought well. Worthy of recognition in the archives of the Jedi Order. Now it is finished. Surrender & your lives will be spared." "We will not be hostages to be bartered, Dooku!" Mace refused. "Then, I'm sorry, old friend...." Count Dooku shook his head. The battle droids then pointed their weapons at the group. Sally looked at Sonic, worried. He just looked back at her & looked back at the droids, ready for action. "Look!" a female voice that came from Senator Padme Amidala spoke. They looked up to see a few Republic Gunships flying down inside, instantly firing at the droids, destroying them. On one gunship, a short & old but wise & powerful Jedi Master named Yoda was looking at the battle below. "Around the survivors, a perimeter create." Yoda ordered to the white armored Republic Clone Troopers, who were clones of Jango Fett.

The Gunships bombarded the droids with heavy weaponry & landed in the middle to cover & pick up the surviving Jedi. The Clone Troopers got out of the Gunships to help the Jedi boarding the Gunships a lot easier. The Freedom Fighters saw an empty Gunship & started boarding it. "Dulcy, try getting Tails into one of those capital ships up there." Sally ordered. "I don't think you'll fit in these." "But Aunt Sally, I wanna go with you!" Tails protested. "Tails we can't risk you getting hurt or killed." Sally explained, with Tails looking down in disappointment. "But I promise you we will return safely." She kissed his forehead. "Dulcy get him to safety now." "OK!" Dulcy nodded & with Tails on her back, she flew up to one of the Republic Assault Ships nearby.
