Sonette and the others made it back to the main base. Teagan takes Sonette's hand and they head off. Sonette and Teagan follows Tails and Knuckles with Sonic close behind them. They walk into Tails' work area and walk over to the desk. Teagan looks at Sonette who nods.

"We need to find the Chaos Emeralds first." Tails said and Teagan nods.

"We need a powerful scanner that could pick up even the tiniest trace of chaos energy." Teagan tells him.

"Right." Tails said. Sonette walks back with Knuckles, leaving the pair to work. Knuckles guides Sonette to a lounge and the pair sits down.

"How did you get Teagan to help us?" Knuckles asks.

"She's a scared fox, I told her who she was in my reality and how much my Teagan means to me. I told her while I am here, I was going to look after her and be here for her. I also told her she is my only way home and to find that portal. She trusts me for some reason so I can't lose that." Sonette explains.

"I see." Knuckles said.

"Where I am from, Teagan and I… she means everything to me. I saved herself so many times and she has saved mine even more. Not just from Eggman but my own demons. She is always there in my darkest hours to pull me out and gives me hope. She is like a little sister I have always wanted." Sonette explains and Knuckles smiles. "Listen Knuckles, I am not leaving to we close that portal." Sonette tells him and Knuckles looks at her shock.

"Are you sure?" Knuckles asks.

"It is the least I can do. Your Sonette is right and I owe it to finish what she started. I owe it to Tails as well, Dr Taramandal killed his sister and it make me furious knowing you have to go through that. He is going to die." Sonette explains and Knuckles smiles. "He won't get away for what he has done." Sonette adds.

"You sound a lot like her." Knuckles admits.

"Well she's the hero, I'm just a criminal with anger issues." Sonette said and Knuckles chuckles. Sonette smiles as she leans into Knuckles who wraps his arm around her.

"You should get some rest." Knuckles tells her.

"I should but I'll be fine." Sonette said and Knuckles nods. Amy walks over with some clothes and sits next to Sonette.

"These should fit her." Amy said.

"Thanks." Sonette said, sitting a bit. Then Sonic walks in and over.

"What's wrong Sonic?" Amy asks worried.

"Shadow wants to lock Teagan up again." Sonic replies.

"Well he can't, we need her." Sonette said.

"I know and I told Shadow that but he is so suborn." Sonic said. Then Shadow walks in and Sonette stands up. Shadow was heading to Teagan. Sonette runs to Teagan in a blur and stands in front of her and Shadow stops.

"Get out of my way." Shadow tells her.

"No." Sonette said as Amy, Sonic and Knuckles runs over.

"Damnit Shadow, we need Teagan to end this war!" Sonic tells him.

"Like hell we do." Shadow said, pulling out a handgun and Sonette goes into shock. Teagan drops to her knees, hiding behind Sonette and Shadow sighs. Knuckles then punches Shadow, grabbing the gun and sits it on the bench.

"Enough Shadow." Sonic said and Shadow growls.

"Get out of here." Knuckles tells him. Shadow grabs his gun and walks out. Sonette sighs with relief as she turns around and helps Teagan up. Teagan was shacking.

"Come on." Sonette said and they walk to the lounge. Teagan sits down and Sonic sighs as he takes his black leather trench coat and wraps it around Teagan. Teagan looks at him shock and Sonette smiles.

"She's in shock." Sonic said.

"Thank you." Sonette said and Sonic nods.

"Amy, Knuckles, you two need to stay with Teagan and Sonette." Sonic tells the pair.

"Don't worry, I'm not leaving them." Knuckles said.

"Same." Amy said and Sonic walks off. Tails runs over and sits next to Teagan.

"We'll take five." Tails said and Teagan nods.

"Okay." Teagan whispers.

"I can't believe Shadow did that." Amy admits. Sonette sighs as she cross her arms and looks back.

'Why did Shadow react the way he did? He didn't say anything when I first got Teagan out.' Sonette asks herself.

"Sonette." Teagan said and Sonette looks at her.

"Sorry Teagan, lost in my thoughts." Sonette said and Teagan nods. Sonette looks at Knuckles who sighs.

"It's not like Shadow to pull a stunt like that. I'm confused on why he did." Knuckles admits.

"True, ever since the war started, Shadow changed for the better. Protecting everyone. Rouge even said it was nice to see a different side of Shadow." Amy explains and Sonette sighs.

"He's worried about Teagan sending information to Dr Taramandal." Sonette said.

"That monster took my sisters away from me." Teagan said and Amy looks at her shock. "Elyse and her family as well as Crystal and hers. They were everything to me." Teagan tells them.

"I know." Sonette said as she clench her fists. "He won't get away with this." Sonette tells her and Teagan looks at her. Amy sighs as she sits down next to Teagan who looks at her.

"I'm sorry." Amy said and Teagan smiles. Sonette sighs as she starts playing with her necklace.

"That's a nice necklace." Teagan said and Knuckles looks at Sonette who looks at them.

"Wait a second." Knuckles said, walking up to Sonette and grabs it. Sonette sighs. "This… this is part of the Master Emerald." Knuckles said shock and Sonette sighs.

"Yeah, so I was told." Sonette said. Teagan got up and stares at it.

"This could link up with the Master Emerald." Knuckles said and Sonette takes it off.

"Pass it here." Teagan said.

"We can use that to also find the Chaos Emeralds." Tails said, standing up.

"We could." Teagan said walking off and Tails follows her. Sonette sighs as she watches the pair.

"So it is true then." Knuckles said. "A small piece of the Master Emerald was given to someone off the island." Knuckles said and Sonette nods.

"Where did you find it?" Amy asks.

"Um… I think it was in Frog Forest." Sonette replies. "My Tails and I were hiding from Eggman. As we got up I saw the gold chain and I grabbed it." Sonette explains. "I have been wearing it since, unless I am wearing another necklace which is rare." Sonette adds.

"I see." Knuckles said. "That is the missing key." Knuckles tells her and Sonette smiles.

"Well I'm glad it has finally come in handy." Sonette said and Knuckles smiles.

"I'll be back, Amy I know I said I wouldn't leave by I need to tell Sonic." Knuckles explains.

"Go." Amy tells him and Knuckles runs off. Sonette sits down on the lounge, sitting next to Amy who smiles. Sonette yawns and sighs, she was starting to feel weak. "Come on, lay down." Amy tells her and Sonette lies down, resting her head on Amy's lap and Amy smiles. Sonette closes her eyes and tries to get some rest.
