"Poor Cubot, I knew him so well." Orbot said holding Cubot's head. Tails was looking on his pad and Sonic was sitting in a puddle due to his burned tail.
"Arr! Me voice chip is all cattywampus!" Cubot said with a pirate accent.
"Thanks to Sonic everything is all cattywampus!" Eggman blamed the hedgehog.
"Oh I'm terribly sorry." Sonic said being sarcastic.
"My conch was the only thing that kept the Zeties in check." The doctor said.
"Hmm, some sort of natural inhibitor to their powers. Sounds painful." Tails spoke.
"And very rare." Eggman added.
"Actually you can get it on Eb-"
"The Zeti have an innate ability to manipulate magnetic fields. They can make electronics including my mechs do interesting things. I controlled the Zeties with the conch until Sonic punted it away with his stupidity." Eggman blamed Sonic once again.
"Get lost, Eggface. Tails and I will get things under control." Sonic said standing up.
"I hope the Zeties will eat you alive, you meddling hedgehog." Eggman said before walking away with Orbot and Cubot following.
"Thank you for the commitment." The hedgehog said.
"Hey Sonic, look what I got." Tails pull out the yellow chaos emerald from his tails.
"Whoa where did you find this?"
"It was buried in the sand before your tail was on fire." Tails explained.
"Ya I remember. So they're more chaos emeralds in the Lost Hex?" Sonic asked.
"Yes I guess so. Oh, I looked up that the Zeti used to protect Little planet from natural disasters. But it says that the Zeties aren't very good fighters cause they choose the peace route to intruders." The smart fox explained.
"That explains why they're weak when they fought me. Let's go and defeat those jokers!" Sonic said with a smirk.
~Meanwhile at Eggman's base~
Zavok, Zazz and Zomon were standing there, doing nothing.
"It seems that the peaceful days of tending my garden will have to wait." Spoke Master Zik who was walking to them. "While I'll take care these matter that the rest of you can't."
"Please Master Zik; This is not something that you should do." Zavok warned with concern.
"Now don't be concern about me. I took care a bunch of you through teen years, right?" The master asked.
"Well yes but," Zavok was cut off.
"So a speedy hedgehog won't be a trouble for me." Zik jumped up, snatched Zomon's sandwich, then shove it in Zazz's mouth.
"And besides, it'll be good to stretch these old bones." Zik commented then walk away.
"I hope he won't break his back." Zazz whispered.
"I heard that!" Zik said.
~Later~
Sonic was running through the zone humming a song
"Gotta go fast. Gotta go faster-" Suddenly a wooden cane almost hit him. He looked up to see Master Zik.
"You must be the hedgehog that everyone was talking about." Zik said.
"And who are you, old man?" Sonic asked. Zik jumped down and grabbed his cane.
"I'll teach you a lesson about respect." Zik said serious.
"But a lesson from an old man is boring to me." The blue hedgehog said.
"Fine, how about a battle to spice things up?" The master asked.
"Alright! Let's go!" Both of the master and hedgehog ran away to their fighting place.
~Later. Again~
Master Zik returned to the Zeties.
"I tested the blue hedgehog and he's powerful then I thought. Now I see why the people from below says he's the hero." Zik informed while Zavok was working on the machine.
"Who cares about him? Now I'm free, I want to squeeze Eggman until he pops." Zomon said.
"And let me guess, and eat him?" Zavok guessed with an annoyed face.
"How did you know?" The fat one asked then ate a doughnut.
"So why are you using that machine?" Zik asked.
"This machine will suck the planet below us and transfer in this planet to make it whole once again." Zavok explained.
"Well I say that's a good idea." Zik said with a smile. Zavok nodded then pulled down the lever which powers the machine and sucking the energy of Mobius.
"Time for the hedgehog to suffer his world like we did." Zavok said with a smirk.
~Back on Mobius~
Everything was turning white. The color was disappearing. Both Amy and Knuckles was watching the whole thing. Amy pulled out her communicator and called Sonic and Tails.
"Sonic, something's terrible is going on." Amy said.
"Whoa what's going on?" Sonic asked with concern.
"I don't know. Everything feels cold even the air. The air feels like it's sucking away." Amy informed.
"Okay, you two stay and be safe. Tails and I will stop this." Sonic said before hanging up.
"I gotta feeling that he won't make it." Knuckles said before coughing.
"Don't worry, he'll make it...I hope." Amy looked up at the sky.
Both Sonic and Tails were walking until they stopped to hear
"We have a mutual problem. A problem so big that it'll take both of us to overcome it." Eggman said with Orbot and body-less Cubot.
"Whatever. We said that Tails and I will handle the Zeties." Sonic reminded Eggman.
"That maybe true. But the Zeties had a machine of mine. And using it beyond it's design." The doctor said.
"What was the machine?" Tails asked.
"It's a machine to make Eggmanland. I suck up some of Mobius' energy but they're going to suck all of the planet's energy until it's gone." Eggman explained.
"Oh so that's what Amy was talking about." Sonic said.
"And you want to smash it?" Tails asked with a smile.
"Ya of course! That's what I do."
"That's always your answer to everything! If you wish to create a cataclysmic explosion that will incinerate everything within hundred miles. Please, smash away." The doctor said.
"So there's no off switch?" Sonic asked.
"No, not anymore. I need to get to the machine and reprogram the shutoff sequence. I'll apply the brain while you'll be the brawn to let me get past the Zeties." Eggman explained.
"Then again, we worked together multiple times in the past. So what's different than right now?" The fox said.
"Alright, let's get this over with." Sonic said then all of them went off.
