Location: Gear Stadium

"Alright! 3rd lap and I've had nothing to worry about," Sonic said lazily as he prepared to finish the race on the home stretch. However, Jet and Storm suddenly came to both sides of Sonic and began to bump him around. "Hey, that's not fair!"

"Life isn't fair, hedgehog!" Jet said smugly. However, just as Sonic was about to get bumped off his gear, Mario sped alongside and knocked Storm off the track.

"Don't worry, Sonic, I got your back!" Mario stated giving Sonic a thumbs-up.

Sonic in return thumbs-upped as well, and the two jetted ahead. 200 feet till the finish line! They were about to win. However, a blue flash came across the track and knocked Mario, Sonic, and Jet all off the track.

"Hey, what's the big idea?!" Jet yelled.

Above the three hovered a blue robot shaped like Sonic. Metal Sonic descended upon them and pointed toward Sonic.

"ONE SHALL STAND. ONE SHALL FALL." Metal Sonic stated in its robotic voice.

"What is that thing?" Mario stuttered in horror.

"It's my evil robotic clone, Metal Sonic," Sonic said with irritation, "Alright, Metal. Let's finish this once and for all!"

Sonic began to spin into a ball as he prepared his Spin Dash. Metal did the same. As the two finished gaining speed, they charged into one another and bounced around the Stadium, constantly clashing with each other. Mario looked around at the action, but Sonic and Metal were moving too fast for him to see.

"Will Sonic be able to beat Metal?" Mario asked.

"Well, there are a lot of things I can deny about Sonic, but being a good fighter isn't one of them," Jet stated smugly.

After smashing into each other for the 10th time, Sonic landed on his feet to catch his breath and prepared to do another Spin Dash. This time, however, strange balls of light were drawn towards him as he charged up, and when he stopped and stood, he was covered in a mystical blue light.

"Time for a good-old Light Speed Dash!" Sonic chuckled as he disappeared in a flash, then Mario saw massive streaks of light smashing into Metal as the robot took multiple blows to the body. Metal fell onto the ground, with Sonic standing over him. "Game's over, Metal."

Suddenly, Metal's chest began to open as Sonic gazed in surprise. Inside Metal, 3 Chaos Emeralds were held locked into what looked like a laser cannon. "BATTLE HAS FINISHED. IT'S OVER. FAREWELL, MY ORGANIC COPY!"

Just as Sonic thought he was about to get fried, a giant hammer came and whacked Metal, sending him flying and the 3 emeralds coming out of his chest. "That's what you get for trying to hurt my Sonic, you robotic imposter!" Amy shouted.

Mario stared in disbelief as Peach ran up beside him. Sonic came out of the shock and realized what Amy had just done. "Amy, you saved my life!"

"Well, it looks like we're even now since that metallic monster kidnapped me before. It's lucky that I made it here just in time, Sonic."

Sonic slowly began to realize how much he meant to Amy, and started to think about how much she meant to him. Ever since they had met on Little Planet, Amy has always had Sonic's back, even if she did seem a bit stalker-like.

Mario turned towards Jet. "We'll be taking that Chaos Emerald now."

Jet grunted with defiance. "You haven't won the race yet. We were stopped before you crossed the finish line!"

Mario seethed with anger, but then realized he was right next to the finish line. He stepped on the line and then prepared his hammer. Then, he smacked Jet into the sky and grabbed the Emerald that fell out of his hand.

Peach was slowly examining the emeralds that fell out of Metal. "Wait. This doesn't make sense. Weren't Luigi and the others holding this emerald?" She then held up the same green emerald that Luigi, Tails, Yoshi, and Knuckles were holding.

Sonic came out of his thought and realized that this emerald was with Tails and the group in the Mushroom Kingdom. He then pulled out a communicator Tails made for the two groups to talk to each other from across both worlds. "Tails, do you read me? Tails!"

Only static came from the other side. This made Sonic deeply concerned. "We need to get back to the Mushroom Kingdom, fast."

Notes: Yep. I most definately shipped them. Sonamy FTW! Y'know, now that I think of it, this chapter should have been split into 2 parts in the first place. It's too long, for one, and there is a perfect stopping point for a chapter after Peach and Amy get the Emerald. Anywho, the original Chapter 10 AKA new Chapter 11 is next. Same bat time! Same bat channel!
