Issai screamed as the fire and wind ripped around him. Closing his eyes, the genetically created hedgehog focused, his Chaos Energy swirling around him, and he blasted away the fire and wind.

"Sonic…Sonic the Hedgehog…And Blaze the Cat," Super Issai grinned, floating down, "How nice of you to join us. I'll kill you too!"

Sonic paused, getting into a fighting position.

"Jet…Storm…Blaze…Go help G.U.N. and the Chaotix. See if you can find Shadow. I'll deal with this guy, whoever he is," Sonic said coldly, green eyes eyeing Issai with contempt.

Issai laughed now, looking towards Sonic, "Fool. I defeated the self proclaimed 'Ultimate Life Form' already. If he's not dead already he will be soon. What makes you think-"

Issai coughed blood suddenly, doubling over as Sonic's fist was placed rudely into his gut, the Blue Blur looking deadly serious, removing his fist, then seeming to phase out suddenly, and Issai slammed into the ground, Sonic's foot raised over him.

"Shadow's pretty powerful, and fast too. But I'm the Fastest Thing Alive," Sonic stated simply.

Super Issai laughed suddenly, and phased out as well, appearing behind Sonic, swinging his foot around.

Sonic suddenly shot forward into a ball, avoiding the kick and dashing forward, ramming into Issai's stomach.

Super Issai coughed up blood again, eyes dilating from the blow, and Sonic twisted around, grabbing the genetically created hedgehog's right arm and pulling it behind his back.

"I guess you're fast as well," Sonic grinned, "But still, I'm faster."

"Issai!"

Everyone paused, and Metal Sonic got back up, having restored his systems now.

"Stop holding back on Sonic. You can't give him that chance," Metal stated, then eyed the other Mobians, who had refused to leave Sonic's side. "You must be merciless…"

Metal Sonic then took a stance, grinning his robotic smile now, eyes glowing bright.

"So let's kick it up to one hundred percent…" Metal laughed.

"Got it, Father," Issai answered, and energy began to expand around him and Metal, Sonic struggling to keep a hold of the other biological hedgehog, but failing, being blasted back, though landing safely.

There was a flash of light from a Chaos Control, and Amy appeared, surrounded by about twenty humans.

"Everyone here? Is anyone missing?" Amy wondered, looking up towards the crowd. There was some murmuring, then a collective 'No' from the crowd.

"Good!" Amy smiled, "Now let's go!"

The pink hedgehog led them into G.U.N. Base, and a few soldiers took charge, bringing the people to a place to recover.

Rouge was leaning against the wall as Amy came in, and pulled he fellow female off to the side, a worried look on her face.

"Amy…We got a message about seven minutes ago…Something about Shadow and an attack at Mystic Ruins…Sonic, Blaze, Jet, and Storm went to go help, but…" Rouge began, looking down towards the ground, "I figured you would want to know."

She looked up, and Amy was already running outside again, and then Chaos Controlling away…

Super Sonic was fighting Super Issai and Metal Sonic now. Metal Sonic was a lot tougher then he first fought him, and with Super Issai aiding Metal, it was nearly impossible for Sonic to launch a counterattack.

"Come on Sonic…Use me…You need my power…You used it before and you were perfectly fine afterwards!" the mystery voice from before said, welling up in Sonic's consciousness.

"No…I can't! I won't!" Sonic thought back, ducking to the side as a blade from Metal Sonic almost chopped his left arm off

"But you have to…Do you really want your friends to die? Do you want Evil to win?" the dark voice chuckled, trying to tempt Sonic.

"But if I l use your power, Evil will still win…" Sonic argued, finding Issai's black Chaos Spear right in his face. He focused and warped, narrowly avoiding the blast.

Suddenly everything seemed to stop, a scream sounded.

Metal Sonic had Blaze's right arm behind her back with his right arm, and his left hand was placed on her head.

"Time to end this Sonic…" Metal said, "I tire of this game of cat and mouse…Surrender, or Blaze dies."

Sonic's eyes widened, and Blaze growled, summoning fire all around her and Metal, though it didn't seem to affect the robot.

"Blaze!" Sonic shouted, rushing forward, and his leg was suddenly grabbed by Issai.

"Not so fast…" Issai laughed, "You're not going anywhere."

"Choose Sonic…Surrender, or Blaze dies," Metal shouted, clutching Blaze's head tighter.

"I…Fine…" Sonic sighed, and powered down out of his Super Form.

A green flash was suddenly seen, and Metal Sonic temporarily let go of Blaze, and then there was the spill of blood…

"JET!"

Shadow's eyes fluttered open suddenly, just in time a Chaos Control field appeared around him…

"SHADOW!"

Amy knelt down suddenly, green eyes looking down towards Shadow. She could tell he wasn't dead, but he was seriously wounded.

"Hey…Amy…" Shadow coughed, smiling weakly up towards the red clad hedgehog, "You…better be…careful…"

"Shush, Shadow…" Amy grinned slightly, tearing up though, "Now I can help you…"

She smiled, and placed her hands on Shadow, and focused her Chaos Energies, power swirling around her and Shadow now, as Amy focused on healing the Ultimate Life Form.

Amy's Elemental Power, Heart, was the strangest of all of them. It's entire power was unknown, and what exactly it could do had never been truly tested.

But, Chaos is Power, and Power is Enriched by the Heart. And the Heart becomes stronger, when working for those that are linked.

And so, Amy focused, unknowingly drawing forth both her Chaos and Elemental powers again, it's energy focusing around Shadow, and began to heal him.

In a matter of seconds, Shadow was fine. In fact, he was finer then fine. The black hedgehog was completely refreshed, and stood up, eyes wide as he looked at himself, making sure his wounds were gone. Not only that, but his energy was completely refreshed.

"Wow…Amy…what did you do?" Shadow wondered in awe.

"I…don't know…" Amy admitted, shrugging… "I just…focused, and…"

"Are you drained?" Shadow asked, turning to Amy.

"No…In fact…" Amy paused, scratching her head, "I feel better then before too…"

Suddenly they heard a scream, not to far off from the jungle, but not necessarily nearby.

A pause, then a deep voice shouted a single word.

"JET!"

Back at G.U.N. Base, some troops were scrambling, preparing ships to go out into space.

"How much longer till we're ready to go?" Braxton asked one of the technicians who was furtively typing on keyboard.

"About half an hour sir. But we'll still need those who are going up. A lot of the Mobians are out in the field right now, dealing with the Mystic Ruins situation," the technician answered.

"Well how about getting our satellites back online?" Braxton asked now.

"No go. They're still being scrambled and we haven't figured out the code to unscramble it," the technician answered, "We don't have a timeline on this."

Braxton sighed, rubbing his temples, "Have they tried the code word 'Eggman' yet?"

"Yes sir."

Braxton grumbled and turned away, to go see if there was anything he could do to speed things up.
