Ah, O-Town. Home to one of the biggest conglomerates in the United Federation. Pretty impressive, non? Our story today involves the biggest hero on the planet, as well as a certain wallaby. A voice calls out, "Spunky!" A beige wallaby in a blue triangle shirt is looking for his dog. "Where are you!?" He spots a bull terrier. "Spunky! Oh I was so worried about you, I thought I would never find you..." As he picks Spunky up, he spots a bizzare looking device. It opens up. What walks out shocks the wallaby. "Ahhhhhh!"

Episode 1: Sonic's the name!
Someone, or something is racing through O-Town. It crashes through the front doors of one Kind Of a Lot O' Comics. A cloaked figure emerges from the blur. He walks to the counter. He asks the nerdy looking blue turtle, "I'm looking for Rocko. Is he here?" The turtle replies, "I'll check." He goes upstairs and opens a door. He gets hit in the head with a tomato. "He's here, and he's still afraid. And now I'm nauseous" The cloaked figure walks through that door, after dodging another tomato. Inside is Rocko, who is the wallaby from before. He says, "Wait a minute, are you..." "Yep," the Mobian removed his cloak, revealing a blue hedgehog with green eyes, a red jacket, blue T-shirt and shorts, white gloves, and red and white sneakers. "I'm Sonic of the Knothole Freedom Fighters!" Rocko is relieved. "Now I should probably explain the circumstances."
23 Hours Earlier
The device opens up. Out of it pops a purple toad wearing business casual, Mr. Smitty. Only he looks robotic. As in, he seems to have been transformed into a robot. Rocko pulls off his Stretchbrain Scream™ and gets out of dodge. He runs all the way to his house, locks the doors, goes to sleep, wakes up, hires a house sitter, buys some tomatoes, goes to his office early, and calls a number, "Hello, Freedom Fighers?
Prensent Time
"Of course," Rocko finishes his story, "The roboticizer would explain the recent disappearances." Sonic then asks, "Who do you think is behind this?" Rocko replies, "I don't know, but who ever did it probably moved the darn contraption away. Maybe we should ask around town, warn the residents, and see is they reveal themselves." "You read my mind, Rocko!" Rocko and Sonic walk out of the building, but not before Rocko tells Filburt (the turtle), "I'm giving you the day off. Don't start anything!" Filburt replies, "Okay Rocko!" before the door closes.
At Conglom-O (We own you™) Headquarters
The board of directors are having a meeting. Among them are a nerdy looking unidentifiable animal and a cane toad wearing business casual. "Now directors," said the boss while picking his nose, "After my retirement, someone has to be promoted to job number one, Chairman of the board." "Yes..." Said the cane toad. The boss continued, "so in order to prepare the company for that time, I am handing day-to-day management of the company, as well as job number 2, Chief Executive Officer, to my appointed successor," "Yes!" said the toad slightly louder. "That is why I, Charles Dupette, name Edward Bighead President and CEO of Conglom-O Holdings. And in a few months, Chairman and CEO!", Dupette finished (his statement "YES!" The newly promoted Ed Bighead yelled, "I mean, I am honored to accept." He walked in front of the board, "And for my first order of business, Conglom-O comics will not be tolerating fan works any more!" That will certainly cause some controversy. More importantly, Ed walks in to his office to see his name plate has already been replaced. "I love my life", he then presses a button. A screen pops out of the desk. On it, the Eggman Empire insignia. A bald, rotund scientist with a red and black suit and a mustache, Dr. Eggman himself, appears on screen. "Well Mr. Bighead," says the "good" doctor, "I see you've been promoted." Ed grins and replies, "Yes, all thanks to your help (And my wife's nagging)!" Eggman asked, "Say, you wouldn't have happened to left the roboticizer I lent you unguarded, did I you." Ed's eyes widen in realization, before he answers, "I did! Did something happen." Eggman answers, in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, nothing really... It's just that my sensors indicate that someone walked in on our little secret and called the Freedom Fighter, who sent my archnemesis sonic, to destroy it, you shortsighted fool!" "On no!" Ed worriedly states, "I'm sorry Dr. Eggman! Please don't roboticize me or my family! I'll even move the device to a safer location!" "No need to. I've already sent my assistant, who should have been on guard, to take care of it, and our hedgehog problem as well." The doctor replies. Just then, a silhouette with red eyes appears outside the windows. The doctor then asks, "So, any idea who discovered our little get-workers-quick scheme?" Ed thought about it, then answered, "It has to be Rocko! That little wallaby is always getting on my nerves!" "Assistant," the Doctor said to the floating figure, "Deal with Sonic and this Rocko fellow," Ed interrupts with, "Actually, could you put capturing your next target on a higher priority. I'm sure Heffer would be happy to help us once the process is completed." The figure flies away. Dr Eggman, grinning, then says one last thing, "You do realize you're paying for this... Out of your pocket!?" Ed Bighead then moans, "I hate my life."
Inside a typical suburban house, Rocko and Sonic are warning the inhabitants. "Robotizer!?" Says Virginia Wolfe, a wolf with green beehive, a pink blouse and green pants, and a "Midwestern" accent. Her husband, a wolf wearing business casual, yells, "Eggman thinks he can turn us into his slaves? I'd rather die!" Virginia says to our heroes, "Well, we'd better warn the kids. And don't mind George, he's just high-strung." She then goes off to warn her bio-kids, Peter and Cindy. Rocko asks Sonic, "Would you like to meet my friend Heffer?" Sonic responds with, "Why not?" They walk to his door. Rocko explains to Sonic, "Before you ask why he's a steer, he's adopted." Sonic ahs. They open the door to see an overweight steer with green hair and red pants with suspenders... Being forcibly pulled though his window. He says, "Oh my gosh, Sonic is here and he knows Rocko! Help, I'm being abducted!" Rocko responds with, "Heffer!" He turns to Sonic, "Maybe you can stop whoever's behind all this!" Sonic replies, "Okay!" And runs out the front door. He gets ready to spindash, but freezes when he sees just who exactly is pulling. Heffer slips out of the door. "Rocko!" Heffer yells. "Heffer!", Rocko yells back. He peers out the window. "You had enough time to save him! Why didn't you stop the Robian?" Sonic replies, "Dude, the Robian who took your friend happens to be my dad!" Rocko is left speechless. Finally he says, "We should follow then, and find the roboticizer!" Sonics nods.
Five hours later
The Robian flies through the doors to Observatory O. After a few minutes, he flies back out. Rocko and Sonic head inside. They find a device labeled: Single Roboticizer: Model O, and Heffer tied up inside the pod. He cries out, "This thing's gonna go off in five minutes and turn me into a robot! Help!" Rocko reassures his friend with, "Don't worry, we're here to rescue you! Sonic here knows how to deactivate this model of..." "Well Maurice," a new voice says, "It's good to see you." Rocko and Sonic turn around to see who's talking. It's a robotic blue hedgehog with white streaks, red boots, jeans, a blue jacket, and a blue and white scarf, the only thing not Roboticized. This is Julian "Jules" Parlouzer, father of Maurice Parlouzer, obviously Sonic. Sonic hands wire clippers to Rocko and tells him, "Red, White, Yellow, Purple, and Blue." Rocko runs off chanting the wore order. Jules says to his son, "So, are you going to surrender and let us reunite?" Sonic nods his head, and responds with, "I'm gonna save you from this nightmare." Jules says, "We shall see in the future. But now, we shall fight!" and spin dashes into his son. Sonic dodges, and started to run. Jules flies after him. They crash into eachother for a while, before coming to a stop at O-Park. Sonic returns the spin dash, hitting Jules and sending him into a tree. Jules gets up, and decides to retreat. Sonic simply looks at him as he leaves, saying, "See you later. Heffer and Rocko run up to him, with Heffer saying, "That was a hoot! Can I get your autograph?" Sonic simply says, "Sorry, I gotta head back to the base." Before leaves, Rocko gives him something, "Your pay! For putting a stop to this madness before it got out of hand!" Sonic takes it, and he's off!
"And so the Roboticizier was melted to recent anyone from repairing it. Conglom-O denies any involvement in what could have been the towns biggest tragedy, but citizens are pressuring Chairman Charles Dupette to retire early, not believing him for a second." The screen turns off. Ed looks at his wife, Bev, glaring at him with her red beehive 'do and her blue bathrobe. She says in a voice that does not at all sound feminine, "You know what this means deary?" Ed's response, "Time for plan B." Bev smiles.
