Me: I am so sad. X_X

Sonic: Why?

Me: This is the last chapter. DX !

Sonic: Ah.

Me: Anyways last chapter.

Sonic: Huzzah!

Flora frowned as looked down at the still unconscious warrior that rested beside her. An hour or so has passed since he was knocked out and the rumbling of the spiraling down flying fortress seemed to have no effect on her.

Her sister left her to watch over her sister's boyfriend while she looked for a close escape pod. Flora once tried to hurl Barret over her shoulder but alas his body with his juggernaut like battleaxes was just too heavy for her. So as she frowned at the difficulty of both her boyfriend's condition and his weight she then sighed depressingly. Right now she was stuck and she really despised that.

A moment later however she heard the faint footsteps of Destiny as she rounded the corner and doubled down on her knees in exhaustion.

"He hasn't gotten up yet?" Destiny growled in annoyance at her sister.

Flora simply shook her head before replying, "Not yet, his mind is up in confusion so we will have to wait some more."

Destiny shook her head in defiance at her little sibling before arguing, " We don't have that time. This hunk of worthless metal is already being torn apart as we speak. If we wait any longer we are all going to be dead."

"Well then you care him," Flora scowled as she motioned Destiny to try what her sister has been trying for the past five minutes.

"With pleasure," Destiny smugly answered as she gripped Barret's body and with all of her strength tried to lift him. However as soon as she tried, Barret's body became too much for Destiny as she quickly dropped him on to the ground with a small thud and he fell back on her rear end.

"What is your boyfriend made of rocks?" Destiny yelped as Flora playfully stuck out her tongue in one of those "I told you so" insults.

"Maybe we should just hit him until he wakes up," Destiny suggested but Flora simply rolled her eyes and shook her head.

"He is already injured, I mean look at all his bruises," Flora snapped with irritation.

Just as Flora said, Barret had multiple bruises on his arms, chest, and legs. He also had many cuts over his chest that still had trickles of blood running down his body.

"You really think that any new pain would wake him up?" Flora scowled.

"Well what do you suggest?" Destiny asked.

"Uhh well," Flora was starting to have an idea but before she could say anything, Destiny froze her hand and then placed her ice cold hand on Barret. The very moment the icy hand touched the Dragonmancer's skin his eyes immediately jumped open and he yelped out like he was in pain.

"Well I guess that'll work too," Flora sighed as Barret started yelling out random ranting words and rubbing the cold spot on his skin that awoke him.

"Destiny, why in the hell did you do that!" Barret roared out as the cold sensations in his body finally dissipated.

Destiny simply answered with a cute little giggle and then answers with, "It was the only way to wake up your dense sleep."

"I swear one of theses days I am going to get you back," Barret growled out as Destiny simply stuck out her tongue.

"You can try," Destiny answered like a snob as she turned to her sister who glared back at her.

"Can we stop fighting each other now?" Flora sighed as grabbed Barret's hand and with a cute expression, Barret calmed down.

"Look right now what we need to focus on is getting to the escape pods," Destiny sighed as she put her hands on her hips while she took a deep, calming breath.

"Yes well it would help if we could get to the others soon," Barret hinted as he nudged his lover with his left shoulder and she nodded back.

"Alright just hold on tight," Flora answered as her two passengers grabbed a hold of her arms and then in a flash, they disappeared.

-With Shadow, Omega, and Rouge-

"And that's what you get you annoying pieces of trash," Shadow growled as he tossed a knocked out black guard across his shoulder like he was a rag.

"Enemy mobile hostiles eliminated," Omega stated as his gatling gun rotators retracted back into his hands. The small room was littered with killed or unconscious guards in coated in black metal with most of them bearing scorch marks or bullet holes in their armor. The room had four escape pod chambers that had red blaring lights that were emitting loud alarms that nearly deafened Rouge's sensitive ears.

"I swear if those alarms don't turn off I am going to have to break them apart," Rouge complained as she tried covering her enormous ears with her hands.

With a swift flick of his wrist, Shadow summoned a small cluster of Chaos Spears and they fired out into the blaring alarms, silencing them after small explosions of shrapnel scattered around the chamber.

"Thank you very much Shadow," Rouge sighed happily with relief as she uncovered her ears.

"No problem," Shadow replied with a smirk as Omega shook his body with displeasure of seeing parts of machines destroyed.

"Aww looks like old Shad has a soft spot after all," a cocky voice echoed behind Shadow and he immediately whipped around to find Sonic hold a cocky grin and Amy giggling behind him.

"Keep it up faker and you might be the next thing that explodes on this ship," Shadow growled his threat. Sonic simply raised his hands and shook his head.

"Sorry there old pal," Sonic answered with his cocky voice still in check. "Just thought you might have loosened up a bit since the last time I saw you. However, it looks like I was dead wrong now doesn't it?

"You are always wrong about me blue," Shadow growled once again but the moment he felt Rouge's hand touch his right shoulder he sighed out in defeat and became silent.

"I still say you have a soft spot," Sonic teased and a slight blush became visible on Shadow's black muzzle and a grin appeared on his rival's face.

"Well from what I see I'd say you have a soft spot as well for someone," Shadow spat back and the moment Amy's giggle became much more audible and her muzzle reached the side of Sonic's neck, he started to quiver violently and his face erupted in a violent shade of violet. Every in the room stared laughing except for poor old Sonic who stayed silent for quite sometime.

Suddenly a bright cream light erupted from the room and everyone turned their attention to the new spectacle. Then as if by magic Barret, Flora, Destiny, Tails, and Cream burst out of the light and the blinding phenomenon vanished.

"Urg," Tails groaned as he pulled himself off Cream's small body and winced in pain, "next time someone offers me a paranormal ride, I ain't taking it."

"Oh quite complaining you scientific wako," Destiny growled as she helped her sister up and stood over the fox with a dominant look. "You believe your science explains everything in the universe and yet you think our magic is not magic."

"There is no such thing as magic!" Tails barked out as he helped Cream up with a friendly exchange of hands. "There is just paranormal phenomenas that can be explained after years of research."

"I give up with this guy!" Destiny exclaimed in defeat as she stomped off toward an escape pod.

"So did you kick that geezer to the curb," asked Barret as he put his arm on his shoulder.

Barret simply shook his head and walked off toward Destiny and Sonic simply sighed.

"A hard defeat for a warrior shouldn't be pushed for info right away," Shadow answered.

"You know, I am gonna go talk to him," Flora answered as she crept behind the downed fighter.

"Hey as long as my rose is okay I am good," Sonic smuggly replied as Amy giggled and blushed at the cocky blue stud that held her close to his body.

"Your certainely are in heaven ain't you pinky?" Rouge taunted but Amy simply stuck out her tongue and snuggled deeper into her lover's embrace.

"Its useless to raddle her Rouge," Shadow darkly stated. "When is with faker nothing can anger her except if it involves you hurting or trying to steal him."

"Man I am going to feel bad for all the dumb girls that are going to follow the famous Sonic the Hedgehog now," Rouge chuckled.

"Probability for Amy Rose to inflict injury to her enemies is at 97.83%," Omega intergected and Rouge shook her head as she raised her hands to the air.

"See even the pile of bolts agrees with me," Rouge sighed out in victory.

"Well if you guys are done I am gonna get out of her," Shadow grunted as he left his team to an adjacent escape pod.

"Hey wait up!" Rouge scowled as she ran after the dark hedgehog.

"I will take a separate transportation," Omega bleeped as he headed off to the neighboring pod.

"Well do you want to have a little alone time soon or do you just want to hold me until we die?" Sonic asked Amy as her eyes brightened up like a little girl hearing that it was Christmas morning. She then dashed into an empty space pod as Sonic lightly chuckled as he followed.

"You definitely got it made, Sonic," the chuckling hedgehog stated as he followed his excited mate.

"So any plans when we get back to Mobius?" Rouge asked the black hedgehog as Shadow simply shifted his gaze back to Rouge.

"No," Shadow answered dully and Rouge dropped her ears in disappointment.

"Oh," Rouge sighed in despair but her mood quickly picked up when Shadow grasped her hand.

"You want to do something when we get back?" Shadow offered and Rouge happily nodded with a hint of crimson on her cheeks

As Shadow and Rouge left to another adjacent space pod Omega remained silent while small lights illuminated and dilated on his eyes. Finally, all the lights dimmed except for his regular yellow computerized eyes.

"Scan confirmed." Omega bleeped as his calculations finished. "Robotnik is still alive and is on Mobius. Must pursue."

Omega followed then behind his cohorts and Tails and Cream simply walked off to their own. Within minutes the sound of four space pods shooting out of spiraling fortress echoed into the depths of space as all the freed heroes and heroines went home. Sonic and his company's mission is accomplished for they fought and survived.

But with every ending there is a new beginning.

Me: I guess your all wondering why this ended huh?

Sonic: Yeah it seems as if you are missing a lot.

Me: Well I am sorry to say but….
