"Are we there yet?" asked Wave.
"We've just crossed the New Hampshire border." said Tails.
"How much longer?" asked Wave.
"Hard to say." said Tails. "We still don't know where they are."
"It's all right, Wave." said Sonic. "We'll find them."
"Sonic..." said Wave. "Couldn't you just look for them? With your speed, you should find them in no time."
Sonic, and Knuckles looked at each other.
"I..." said Sonic. "didn't really think of that." He went over to the door of the ship that led outside. "Open the door, Tails. I'm going down there."
"Got it." said Tails. "Hold on. I'll get lower."
The doors opened and the ground was getting closer. They were now right above the trees.
"This is as close as I can go, Sonic." said Tails.
"Be right back." said Sonic, and he jumped.
"How much longer are we going to wait?" asked Blaze.
"As long as it takes." said Jason. "Whoops." whispered Jason.
"What?" asked Blaze.
"Forgot to hide the van." Jason used psychokinesis to lift the van up and of the road behind a large bush and a tree. "There. It's hidden."
They then heard cars screeching to a stop on the bridge above them. Then there was en explosion and screaming.
"Shh." said Jason, pressing up against the wall.
"Well, shouldn't we help them?" asked Blaze. "I mean... isn't that our job?"
"I would love to, Blaze." said Jason. "But we're just not strong enough."
"I don't care." said Blaze. "It's our duty to help them."
She stepped away from the wall and headed out from under the bridge.
"Wait!" said Jason. "I'm coming with you."
Jason and Blaze ran up the hill on the side of the bridge and stepped over the guard rail onto the bridge. They saw Lightning hovering in the air.
"There you are, Jason." said Lightning. "Been lookin' for you."
"Well, you found me." Jason said, pulling out his sword.
Lightning raised his hand and lightning shot out. Jason held up his sword and deflected the lightning. Lightning kept throwing lightning bolts at Jason. Jason swung his sword, knocking away the lightning bolts. Blaze ducked as one flew over her head.
"Hey!" she said."Watch it!"
"Sorry!" yelled Jason, deflecting another bolt.
Lightning lowered his hand and returned to ground level.
"It seems we're at a stale mate." said Lightning.
"How so?" asked Jason.
"From the looks of things..." said Lightning. "we're evenly matched when it comes to special abilities."
"So, what do you propose?"
"How about we do it the old-fashioned way?"
Jason thought for a second. "Jousting?"
"What?" asked Lightning. "No! Hand-to-hand combat."
"Oh." said Jason. "All right."
Jason's sword folded away and Jason put it in his pocket. He then raised his fists.
"Jason!" yelled Blaze. "What are you doing?"
Lightning charged towards Jason.
"What do you mean?" asked Jason.
Lightning was getting closer.
"Your weakness is lightning!" she yelled.
"Oh." said Jason.
Lightning slammed into Jason, knocking him to the ground. Jason took a deep breath and slowly stood up.
"Come on, Jason!" yelled Lightning. "Fight back."
Jason ran towards Lightning. Lightning raised his fists. Jason grabbed his wrists, getting zapped with lightning. They both became engulfed in lightning. A pillar of lightning shot up towards the sky.
Sonic rushed towards a tall building. He burst through the front door and rushed up the flight of stairs and burst through the door to the roof. He immediately saw the pillar of lightning ascending towards the sky. As did Tails and the others. Sonic took off towards the bridge to aid Jason.
