Sonic and Gage explained to Twilight, the girls, and the crusaders their story. They explained who they were and where they came from. Sonic explained how he ended up here in this world, what the swatbots were, and who Eggman was. He even told them all about his life with his siblings and choosing not to be a prince.

Twilight, Spike, the girls, and the crusaders were all amazed at this story. They all had astonished looks on their faces, "Whoa…"

"So you're really a blue hedgehog?" Fluttershy asked, "There are other talking animals on your home world?"

"You're a hero and the child of a queen?" Rarity asked amazed.

"And you've been battling a mad genius for years?" Scootaloo asked.

Sonic nodded, answering their questions. Rainbow let out a cheer, "That. Is. Awesome!"

"Yeah!" Pinkie agreed, "You're like a super-duper superhero!"

Even Applejack knew that Sonic and Gage were telling the truth, "Huh. So… how long had you been fightin' this 'Eggman', Sonic?"

"Longer than I can remember," Sonic said, "I'd just say more than fifteen years. I beat him over, and over, and over again. No matter what improvements he had or came up with, he always failed, but he would never give up."

"Wow, you really make him sound like he really hates you," Sweetie Belle complimented.

"More than you'd think," Sonic added, "So, you're all not mad at us because we're talking animals from another world?"

Rainbow wrapped her arm around Sonic, "How on Earth can we be mad at you when we have awesome friends like you and Gage?"

Sonic chuckled, "I guess you're right."

Sonic began to form a small blush on his cheeks at Rainbow. Yet, surprisingly, Rainbow's cheeks were blushing too.

"Oh, I would really love to go to Mobius," Fluttershy said, "Just thinking about all of the adorable animals there makes me so excited."

"I think you'd love it, Fluttershy," Gage said, "Well, except for when Eggman would attack."

Rarity then asked a question of curiosity, "Sonic, may I see one of those Chaos Emeralds of yours, please?"

Sonic took his backpack off, dug inside it with his hand, and he pulled out the blue Emerald. Not only did its shape and color catch Rarity's eyes, but the glow and sparkling from the energy astonished her. The others were amazed by how it looked as well.

"Oh, my goodness, it's so gorgeous," Rarity said more amazed than ever.

Rarity's hand slowly began to reach out for the Emerald, but then Sonic's hand quickly pulled it away right before she could touch it. Rarity was confused, "What's the matter, darling?"

Sonic responded, "I'm sorry, Rarity. But I don't know if I should risk letting you touch the Chaos Emerald."

Rarity flexed an eyebrow, "Why not?"

Gage answered, "Because each of the Emerald are extremely powerful, even if you have only one of them. There's no way of knowing what would happen if a normal person had taken this emerald. Many of our people on Mobius believe that if a normal person had even touched it, their minds would be controlled by the Emeralds and they would be given uncontrollable power."

Rarity was now afraid that was true as she pulled her hand away, "Uh, okay, that makes total sense."

Sonic put the Emerald away in his backpack. But then he decided to also show Rarity something else. He pulled out one of his gold rings, and he showed it to Rarity. Rarity was, again, amazed by what she saw. Sonic actually handed it over to her to let her see it.

Rarity examined the ring very carefully, "My word, this ring is made of pure gold. Where did you get this?"

"It's from Mobius, my home world," Sonic said, "Honestly, like the Chaos Emeralds, I don't think anyone knows who creates them or who leaves them around in the different zones of Mobius. There's always thousands of them."

Rarity was quite surprised to hear this, "Really? My goodness, you could probably make so much money out of those rings."

"If I wanted to, that is," Sonic added, "Anyways, girls, what do you say we get back to our main topic?"

Twilight and the other girls then remembered that they were here to talk to Rainbow Dash about Sunset Shimmer. Only Rainbow didn't know what they were talking about.

Applejack was the first to stand up, "Rainbow, how about I tell you what we've recently discovered?"

Rainbow seemed a little hesitant in agreeing, but stood up and followed Applejack into the field to talk about their issues. As the others all watched, they saw that Rainbow and Applejack weren't getting into an argument.

Rarity was convinced that this was a good thing, "They're actually talking. That's a good sign."

And Rarity's theory was right; Rainbow and Applejack had pulled each other into a hug. This meant that whatever problems they had with each other was now all water under the bridge.

Pinkie exclaimed happily, "Hugs! Oh! Hugs are always good!"

After a moment, Rainbow and Applejack came back over to the group. Applejack explained what she figured out, "Somebody, and I think we can all guess who… told Rainbow Dash that my bake sale had been moved to a different day. Dash showed up with all the softball team and thought I cancelled on her."

Rainbow turned to Twilight and asked, "So you're looking to dethrone Sunset Shimmer and become Princess of the Fall Formal, huh?"

Twilight was hesitant as she looked away, before she turned back to Rainbow and nodded with a nervous smile. Rainbow kicked her soccer ball in the air a few times as she said, "Gotta say, I'd really love to see that happen. I'll totally help you out."

Twilight had a big hopeful smile on her face, but that quickly turned into a frown of worry when Rainbow added, "All you gotta do, is beat me in a game of one-on-one."

Twilight didn't want to have a game with Rainbow, "What?"

"First to five goals wins!" Rainbow said.

Rainbow kicked her soccer ball around her, bounced it off her head, and she kicked it in midair right into the net, "One-zip!"

Twilight had a shocked look on her face about this, but she and Rainbow began their game. Sonic and the girls were worried about this. "I really hope this pays off," Sonic thought.

Rainbow began charging at Twilight's net kicking the ball in front of her. Twilight guarded the net, but her legs were shaking; she had no clue what to do. Rainbow then kicked the ball in the air behind her with her right foot, and then she did a roundhouse kick in midair, kicking the ball with her left foot towards the net.

Twilight panicked as the ball was coming in too fast. She ducked her head down before it hit her. This resulted in Rainbow getting the ball in the net, and scoring a goal. The score on the game were Rainbow with two points to Twilight with none.

Sonic, Gage, and the girls were all nervous and worried. Without Rainbow's help, Twilight would never be able to get her crown back and return to Equestria.

Rainbow walked past Twilight as she dropped the soccer ball in front of her feet. Twilight now had a confident smile on her face as she readied her foot to kick the ball, but it was suddenly swiped away by Rainbow. She tossed it in the air with her foot behind her, and kicked into the net again, making the score 3-0. She smiled while throwing her arms up in the air.

Gage tried to speak, "Hey! Isn't that che-?!" but an orange hand just silenced him by covering his mouth. He turned over to see that Scootaloo silenced him.

"Never question Rainbow Dash," Scootaloo whispered to Gage menacingly as she took her hand off.

The game continued on as the soccer ball was now in Twilight's possession. She began running towards Rainbow's net, when all of a sudden, Rainbow came right out of nowhere and took the ball away from Twilight. Twilight screeched to a halt as she turned to see Rainbow giving the ball a good high-kick, sending it right into the goal again. The score was Rainbow-4 to Twilight-0. One more score, and Twilight would lose.

Sonic was more and more worried, "This is NOT good."

Now Rainbow was just playing around with the ball, showing off different moves with her legs while kicking it, before she high-kicked it behind her right into Twilight's face, and it fell in front of her. Twilight now saw an opportunity, and she began to rush the ball to the net. Her friends all quickly became excited, thinking she could actually score a goal.

Sonic smiled hopefully, "Come on, Twilight… almost there!"

Twilight was confident that she would score her own goal this time. But as she tried to kick the soccer ball, and a bit too hard I should say, her foot just missed it and she fell onto the ground. The ball rolled up to Rainbow's feet. Rainbow just looked at the ball, before she gave it a really powerful high-kick into the air, and it landed all the way in Twilight's net. Rainbow had beaten Twilight.

Rainbow cheered as she jumped with joy. Twilight lay on the ground exhausted as she panted, "Huff… huff… huff…"

Sonic face palmed while Gage sighed, "Well, great, now what do we do?"

Sonic didn't answer. He just left his hand on his face. He knew that if he couldn't help Twilight, he would never be able to get home to Mobius.

Rainbow stood above Twilight, "That's game."

"I really thought you were gonna pull it off in the end," Rarity gave a sheepish laugh.

Rarity earned herself a glare from Applejack and Pinkie, a sad look from Fluttershy, and a quizzical look from Rainbow. Twilight just lay on the ground, until Rainbow bent down and held out her hand to help her up, "So what's the plan? How can I help you be Princess instead of Sunset Shimmer?"

Sonic and Gage perked their heads up a second after they heard what Rainbow just said, "Wait, what?"

Twilight still panted exhausted as she stood up with the help of Rainbow, "But… I… lost."

Rainbow responded with a smile as she explained, "Of course you lost. I'm awesome. But I'm not gonna help just anybody beat Sunset Shimmer. The Fall Formal Princess should be someone with heart and determination."

Twilight now grew a smile on her face, knowing that there was still hope as Rainbow added, "You proved that you got them both."

Rainbow pulled Twilight into a hug. Everyone cheered for joy at Rainbow's words, and Pinkie jumped ecstatically. Sonic and Gage sighed in relief. "Man, for a moment there, I thought she'd never say that," Gage said.

But while everyone was celebrating for the girls coming back together, Sunset Shimmer had been watching them the whole time while Snips and Snails had recorded all of this with their phones. Sunset had a sinister look on her face, because she had just got an idea.

As Apple Bloom and Scootaloo were walking down the bleachers, Sweetie Belle just happened to hear a weird buzzing nose coming from somewhere in the sky. She looked around until she could see an object approaching from far away. It looked like some kind of large drone that looked like a bee.

Sweetie Belle nervously tapped Sonic on the shoulder as she asked, "Um, Sonic, that wouldn't happen to be one of Eggman's robots up there, would it?"

Sonic and Gage looked over and saw the drone up there. This just made them chuckled as Sonic answered, "Oh, that? Yes, it's a badnik. It might look dangerous for normal people, but I've trashed a lot of those things in the past with one attack."

The badnik pointed its stinger at Sonic and Sweetie Belle, and it fired a bright yellow laser at them. Sonic quickly grabbed Sweetie Belle and jumped right off the bleachers before the laser hit them. They landed right in front of the girls, and they were surprised when they saw them appear out of nowhere.

Gage jumped up in the air, and used a homing attack at the badnik. He easily destroyed it with one stroke. As he landed near the others, he chuckled as he patted his hands together, "See, Sweetie Belle? They're not so tough when you put your mind into it."

Sonic chuckled with Gage, and then all of a sudden, a pair of hands grabbed Sonic right by his shirt, and he was pulled right to the side. He suddenly received a kiss on the cheek from Rarity. This caused him to blush in surprise.

Seeing Rarity kiss Sonic made Spike have an expression of jealousy on his face, "No fair. He gets Rarity's heart, and not me?"

Sonic scratched his head as he asked, "Whoa, Rarity, why did you just kiss me?"

Rarity smiled as she herself blushed at Sonic, "Because you just saved my little sister's life, like you saved Applejack's."

Sonic chuckled as Gage cut in, "Hey, I'm not saying I'm jealous, but I think this is starting to get Sonic embarrassed."

Sonic waved his hands in front of him, "Oh, no, no, no. If it's a thank you kiss, then that's a-okay."

This made Spike feel a little better, "Ah, maybe I was wrong. He's just happy to have a thank you."

Rainbow just rolled her eyes. Sonic then remembered something as he went walking over to the wreckage of the badnik. He looked inside it before he began reaching his hands inside it, and then he pulled them out revealing that there had been a baby brown Mobian squirrel inside.

Fluttershy gasped in surprise as she saw Sonic approach the group with the squirrel in his hands, "Oh, my goodness. Is that little squirrel okay?"

Sonic looked over it and answered, "He's all right, Fluttershy. This is one of the many animals of Mobius. Want to hold it?"

Fluttershy smiled happily at the offer. She carefully took hold of the squirrel, and it chirped happily at her. It used its little arms to hug her neck, but the grip was very soft and it actually tickled her a little bit, "Oh, you're so adorable, little guy."

Sonic smiled at Fluttershy and the squirrel. He then saw Rainbow walking up to him, "Hey, Sonic, can I ask you something?"

Sonic nodded, "Sure, Dash. Fire away."

Rainbow explained what she had in mind, "You see, I heard that you proved to be stronger than Applejack yesterday in the workout room, and I honestly didn't believe that. But when I saw how you were fighting those robots today, I gotta admit, that was quite impressive."

"Okay," Sonic listened, "So, what is it you want to ask?"

"Well…" Rainbow began…

Rainbow suddenly got right into a Kung Fu fighting stance as she smirked, "I want to see what you're made of."

This made Sonic stammer at Rainbow's request, "Wait, what? B… but what about-?"

All of a sudden, Rainbow was coming right at Sonic with a roundhouse kick in the air. Sonic yelped as he quickly ducked his head backwards before Rainbow's foot hit him. Rainbow went right over him, landed on her feet, and turned right to Sonic again.

Rainbow's action caught the others' attention. Sonic stood back up and turned to Rainbow, "Hey! What's the big idea?"

Rainbow laughed, "What? Are you too scared to fight a girl?"

Sonic didn't like what Rainbow said, "Dash, come on. I don't want to fight you. Besides, we have to help Twilight."

"Of course we will," Rainbow replied, "I just want you to show me what you can do."

Sonic was just about to speak when Twilight spoke out, "Sonic, if she really means it, then you just gotta do it."

Sonic sighed in defeat, "All right, all right. I'll do it."

Rainbow smirked, "Atta boy, Sonic. And for a moment, I thought you were just a scared, little rat."

Sonic suddenly perked right at what Rainbow just called him, "Excuse me? You want to go that far?"

Rainbow didn't answer. She just ran straight at Sonic, and she threw a dragon kick at Sonic, but Sonic jumped to the side with a side flip. Rainbow then threw a punch at Sonic, but Sonic was able to catch the punch right in front of his face.

Scootaloo reached in her pocket, and she pulled out her cellphone. She wanted to record the fight, "Oh, this is gonna be cool."

Rainbow gave an impressed chuckle to Sonic, "Huh, not bad. You're a lot faster than I thought. But let's make this a fair fight; no powers or weapons."

Sonic smirked at Rainbow, "Challenge accepted! Let's dance, Rainbow Dash!"
