Chapter 11: The Master Emerald is Stolen!
At Tails's workshop, Tails was revealing his plan to everyone on how to power up the chaos emeralds. "Well, what we need is another emerald with a huge power supply that can power the chaos emeralds to a higher level of energy. Then, Eggman wouldn't stand a chance. Any ideas?" "We can use the master emerald" said Knuckles "It's perfect for this sort of thing." "Alright!" shouted Sonic "I'm gonna put that Eggman out of commission!" "Well, quit wasting time!" said Amy "Go get the master emerald." So, Sonic and Knuckles raced over to the Floating Island.
When they got there, they saw Nack the Weasel sitting in front of the master emerald, asleep. Knuckles ran up the steps in front of Nack. "Hey! Wake up!" said Knuckles as he nudged Nack. Nack jumped up with a start. "Huh? Wha… oh yeah" said Nack as recollected everything in his head "About time you guys got here. I was waiting for you and fell asleep." "Nack what are you doing here?" Knuckles demanded to know. "I, Nack the Weasel, am here to steal the master emerald." "Like that will ever happen" said Knuckles confidently "you couldn't even steal the chaos emeralds! I'd rather have Eggman here." "Oh yeah," replied Nack "well I'll show you." Nack ran behind the master emerald and flew above it in a machine, similar to Eggman's egg-o-matic. "This is Nack the Weasel's Float-o-matic" said Nack proudly.
Sonic and Knuckles chuckled slightly. "What's so funny?" said Nack embarrassed. "Love the name" replied Knuckles mockingly "Eggman can name better than you can." "Well we'll see who's laughing after this." Nack reveals a claw on the bottom of the machine. The claw extends down and grabs onto the master emerald. "Hey! You'd better let it go!" threatened Knuckles. "Come make me, you smelly echidna!" taunted Nack. Knuckles grew furious. He jumped up and flew at Nack with a punch. "Too slow!" said Nack as he pressed a button on his machine. Nack teleported off the Floating Island, laughing evilly. Knuckles flew through where Nack was and landed on the other side, right on his face. "Ow!" yelped Knuckles as he stood up, rubbing his face.
"Darn it, Nack. You're such a pest!" Sonic ran up near Knuckles and said "Are you alright?" "Yeah, I'm fine. But he got the master emerald. Now, we don't have anything to power up the chaos emeralds." Sonic looked over at the hole where the master emerald was, and noticed something. "Hey, Knuckles" said Sonic "look at this." Knuckles looked in to see the answer to their problem.
